Chapter 363 Preparing to Land on the Island
Hearing this, Gu Yuzhi's expression became ugly. He lay on the table and sighed with a puffed face.

Soon he straightened up again, shook his head, and breathed a few words to the side: "Mama Xu said, don't sigh casually. Sighing too much will bring bad luck to yourself."

This is an emergency, he doesn't want bad luck!
Gu Yuzhi secretly guessed that no matter how many navy and private soldiers the King of Chu had, the Duke of Qi was an experienced general and would definitely have a way to deal with the King of Chu who had never been on the battlefield.

He thought for a while, tilted his head and said: "We have too few people. Even if we immediately chase Brother Chu's people now, we still have to go..."

Gu Yuzhi stuck out his tongue, but swallowed back the words "seeking death".

Seeing that neither Qin Yuanjian nor Xie Changshi seemed to notice, he continued: "Have these people told me how many people Brother Chu Wang took away? If they are all taken away, can we find a way to bring the several states in the south of the Yangtze River away?" Get it back first?"

The emperor's brother's secret guards have already set off, using their special method to communicate. Maybe the emperor's brother has already obtained the evidence he submitted.

If the imperial brother moves faster and the army marches faster, maybe he and Qi Guogong can surround Brother Chu's navy one after another.

But all this is based on the fact that Qi Guogong can lead the Lingnan Army to deal with it until that time.

However, the next moment he heard Xie Changshi say: "These people don't know about this either."

These people are ordinary soldiers, and their daily routine is training.

They do whatever their superiors tell them to do.

Except for not being a navy, everything about them is no different from regular navy.

Gu Yuzhi scratched his head and said, "Then do we still need to find a way to explore the naval camp first?"

Especially the island in the middle of the Hou Lake that Prince Qi mentioned before, maybe the King of Chu is hiding someone in it.

Gu Yuzhi puffed up his face and said: "Xie Changshi, now that we have solved the siege of Huizhou, should we send people north and let Shengzhou, Yuzhou and other state capitals send city defense troops to support us first?"

Xie Changshi and Judge Qin looked at each other, but neither of them spoke first.

They had actually discussed this plan before His Highness woke up, and the reason why it was not unanimously adopted was simple.

No one knows whether King Chu's power has penetrated into several states beyond Jiangnan.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Gu Yuzhi looked back and forth between the two of them curiously.

However, Gu Yuzhi understood that Xie Changshi and the others did not agree, so they must have their own considerations, so Gu Yuzhi did not ask any more questions, and just pouted and said: "Then let's go explore Houhu first?"

He scratched his head and thought for a while. If he went to Houhu, would he have to choose people who could swim?
But none of them seem to know how!

Mobei is dry, and sometimes it doesn't rain for a month in summer. Not to mention floods like in Jiangnan, even the water in the reservoir will drop a lot.

Therefore, almost all people in Mobei don't know how to drink water.

He murmured in a low voice: "I don't know if elite soldiers such as Jiang Jingwei and others know how to drink water."

Prince Qi who was just entering the door couldn't help but burst out laughing when he heard Gu Yuzhi's words: "Your Highness, are you considering whether they will do anything with Fu Shui?"

Gu Yuzhi said confidently: "I didn't want to go to Houhu to investigate. If Brother Chu Wang leaves few people in Houhu, wouldn't we be able to capture these people in one fell swoop?"

No matter how many people there are, if they can surrender just one of them, they will have one less opponent, right?

The smile on Prince Qi's face couldn't go away.

God, His Highness Wen Wang is so cute.

He laughed for a while, then straightened his expression in Gu Yuzhi's dissatisfied eyes, and said softly: "Your Highness, don't you think that we need water if we go to Houhu?" Gu Yuzhi raised his chin and said suspiciously: "Isn't it true? Well?"

How big can a lake be?

Xie Changshi shook his head slightly when he saw this, and he naturally understood why His Highness thought so.

I'm afraid that the lake he thought was only as big as the back garden of the palace, and the water would naturally flow over it.

He explained softly: "Your Highness, if we go to Hou Lake, we can take a boat."

When Gu Yuzhi heard the word "boat", his eyes lit up: "Can I take a boat? Will it be a big boat? Like on a canal or on the sea?"

Although he has never been on a ship, he has seen it from the geographical records. The navy's ship is very large and can accommodate hundreds of people.

When he thought that he could also ride on this kind of boat, Gu Yuzhi couldn't help but jumped off the chair, grabbed Prince Qi's sleeve and said, "Prince Qi, can we go and see the boat now?"

Qi Shizi explained softly: "The back lake is not that big, we only need to take a small boat."

Gu Yuzhi groaned with disappointment and sat back on the chair.

Xie Changshi glanced at the sky outside. He whispered: "Your Highness, it has been a day since the rebels sent a message to King Chu, and our people have not detected any movement on King Chu's side. From this, we can confirm that King Chu is not in Jiangzhou."

If he is not in Jiangzhou, he must be besieging Duke Qi.

Gu Yuzhi hummed and said: "Brother King Chu is not here, so I should go to Houhu as soon as possible!"

If Brother Chu Wang comes back and joins the navy in Houhu, then they will be completely doomed!

Gu Yuzhi glanced at Xie Changshi, then at Prince Qi, clenched his fist and said, "Let's go to Houhu while the moonlight is very good tonight!"

Sneak attack, sneak attack!

Gu Yuzhi felt that sneak attack on the enemy was the same as secretly putting a sack on someone.

Xie Changshi smiled slightly: "That's what I meant."

In Gu Yuzhi's surprised eyes, Xie Changshi whispered: "Mr. Huo has already seen the map of Houhu. There are no obstructions on the water leading to the central island. So as long as there are soldiers left on the island, our It is absolutely impossible for people to land on the island during the day.”

So it can only be at night.

Take advantage of the moonlight and take advantage of the time when the opponent is not too defensive to land on the island.

Even if the other party was aware of it, it would be too late to react.

Xie Changshi continued: "Mr. Huo means that our people will go ashore in two batches. One batch will have better water quality, just in case. If the other party finds out, they can jump off the boat and swim ashore."

It would be best if they were not discovered, which would increase their success rate in reaching the island.

Gu Yuzhi's little head was thinking bit by bit: "Okay, okay! Go ahead and tell our people to have a good rest now and set off on time at the end of the day!"

Mr. Huo said that the end of the Chou period and the beginning of the Yin period are the most difficult times of the day for people. Even soldiers who have been training for a long time will become confused at this moment.

In most battles, sneak attacks will be carried out at this time.

So there is absolutely no problem if they choose to set off to the island at this time.
