Gu Yuzhi blinked and said with a confused expression: "What can we do to counterattack? Aren't we already counterattacking now?"

They successfully entered Huizhou and now captured Houhu Island. Isn’t this a counterattack?

Mr. Huo smiled and said: "The small meaning is that we can attack Jiangzhou, Yangzhou and other places."

Xie Changshi on the side stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I also agree with Mr. Huo's idea. When several states in the south of the Yangtze River are captured, the emperor's reinforcements should also arrive."

As soon as the emperor's reinforcements arrive, they can immediately set off from the canal with the reinforcements to intercept the King of Chu and the navy!
Gu Yuzhi just happened to put on his pants again, his eyes kept going back and forth between Mr. Huo and Xie Changshi, then he scratched his head and said: "But there are only a few hundred of us! Yangzhou and Jiangzhou are both big state capitals, and they guard the city. The number of troops will not be small.”

The imperial court stipulated that for a large state capital like this, the number of defenders could be up to 1,500.

Brother Chu's prince's palace is in Jiangzhou. If he can raise private soldiers, he will definitely expand the size of the city defense army. They only have a few hundred people and have few weapons. How can they counterattack.

Xie Changshi and Mr. Huo looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.

Mr. Huo said: "Your Highness, don't worry, I was just about to talk about this."

It turned out that before leaving, King Chu thought that Jiangnan was his territory after all, so he did not plan to leave too many people behind.

The Duke of Qi himself bypassed him and went to Lingnan. Qi Chenglang protected Gu Yuzhi and eradicated his influence in Mobei.

Qi Chengjun went even further, forcefully inserting himself into Huizhou, killing and failing to kill, and irritating others.

It can be said that the whole family of the Duke of Qi is a person he hates very much.

After calculating the old and new grudges, the King of Chu really wished that not a single soldier would stay in Huizhou, but all of them would be sent out to intercept the Duke of Qi.

Lingnan only had a few soldiers, and his navy plus 150,000 private soldiers could completely crush the Duke of Qi in terms of numbers.

So he didn't care that the emperor would send troops to Huizhou, because he was confident that he could destroy the Lingnan garrison first, and then turn around to deal with the troops sent from the capital.

In addition, Qi Chengjun's previous investigation of private soldiers had always been in mountainous areas. He had no idea that the other party had begun to suspect Houhu Island. Therefore, when it was finally agreed, the King of Chu would leave a total of 10,000 soldiers in Jiangnan, excluding Huizhou. Of these 4,000 people, 6,000 remained on Houhu Island.

As for these six thousand people, it may be because they have lived at ease for too long, or maybe because they think no one will guess that there are soldiers on Houhu Island, and in addition, it is the time when people are in trouble at the end of Chou Shi.

When Mr. Huo and others led the soldiers ashore, even the soldiers on the watchtower were dozing off, and their eyes were not opened when the elite soldiers wiped their necks.

On the other hand, Mr. Huo and others only had a few hundred elite troops in the Huizhou City Guards, but with the addition of the navy that had previously surrendered, their troops increased to more than 2,000.

On one side were two thousand people who were full of energy, and on the other were private soldiers who were so sleepy that they didn't even notice that the other party had entered the door.

When the battle started, it was like a one-sided massacre!

The smile on Mr. Huo's lips never fell, and he was obviously very satisfied with tonight's harvest: "Your Highness does not know that all elite soldiers are good at water, so at the beginning, I asked Zhu Shoubei to lead the elite soldiers ashore. "

On the one hand, it is to be able to kill the soldiers on the watchtower and on patrol quickly and efficiently, and to try to annihilate as many as possible without alerting the other party.

On the other hand, it is naturally to prevent these navy masters from temporarily rebelling.

So the first batch of people to come ashore were all their own people.

Zhu Shoubei and Zhang Shiwei led their elite soldiers to cautiously approach Houhu Island, while Mr. Huo led the surrendered navy to escort them back. The ship stopped when it was halfway through the journey. The moonlight is very good tonight. Zhang Weiwei and others thought that they would be discovered if they didn't reach the shore, but they didn't expect that hundreds of people in their group had gone ashore, and there was still no sound on the island.

Guard Zhang was a little confused for a moment and communicated silently with Zhu Shoubei: "There is no sound and no movement. Isn't there no one on the island?"

Could it be that the King of Chu was so conceited that he took away all his private soldiers and left no escape route?
Zhu Shoubei's eyes lit up: "If this is really the case, it will be an advantage for us."

The captured generals revealed that their private weapons depot was in Houhu Island.

So when he thought of being able to open the weapons arsenal without spending a single soldier, Zhu Shoubei was so happy that he almost went crazy.

God knows that the garrison in his state has been on the battlefield as many times as the garrison in the past few days.

Guard Zhang rolled his eyes at him angrily and pointed at a figure on the watchtower, indicating that he was overthinking.

Zhu Shoubei looked up and saw that there were people on the two watchtowers, but judging from the blurry shadows, they were standing against the pillars.

He covered his mouth and silently exclaimed: "Could it be that they have discovered us and are just waiting for us to come ashore so that they can catch us all?"

Zhu Shoubei couldn't think of any other reason, otherwise why would the two soldiers be motionless?
But Guard Zhang shook his head and said, "I can't see."

If they were really noticed, why hadn't there been any movement from these two people even after they had been ashore for so long?

He turned around and looked at Jiang Kangming, pointed at the two people on the observation deck, and gestured with his hands, meaning that there were two soldiers, one for each of them.

Jiang Kangming nodded numbly.

The next moment, the two of them stood up at the same time, walking lightly and silently to the foot of the watchtower. Then they grabbed the watchtower at the same time and climbed up quickly.

If they weren't afraid that using their strength would alert the two soldiers, Guard Zhang and Jiang Kangming would never be as cautious as they are now.

Under the gaze of Zhu Shoubei and others who did not dare to take a breath, Guard Zhang and Jiang Kangming successfully reached the watchtower.

At this time, Guard Zhang finally understood why these two people had not noticed them.

Because getting a little closer, Guard Zhang could hear the even breathing and slight snoring of the man in front of him.

Zhang Weiwei...

Although he felt a little embarrassed, Guard Zhang wiped the other person's neck neatly. Then he looked at Jiang Kangming and saw that Jiang Kangming had also knocked down a person.

After the watchtower was solved, the two men turned around neatly, kicked hard with their toes, used the force to fly into the military camp, and opened the door of the military camp.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Shoubei quickly lit the lantern, blocked it three times and then extinguished it. Then he saw the light on the lake light up, and also blocked it three times and extinguished it.

Zhu Shoubei then waved his hand and led the elite soldiers to quickly follow him through the door.

Guard Zhang glanced at the entrance to the military camp. It was very different from the one on the previous map, so he pointed at Jiang Kangming and Zhu Shoubei. He meant that as they said before setting off, one person would lead a team and enter the military camp from three directions. .

How many can be killed without alerting the opponent. (End of chapter)
