: Artillery fire continues to spread, the first battle won

Heilong Village.

"The boss, the Imperial Guard is coming to us!"

"Hmph——overestimate one's own abilities!"

"Don't move Qingshan Village, but he just attacked our Heilong Village. Do you think our Heilong Village is a soft persimmon?"

The second in commander of Heilong Village has a fat face and a murderous look on his face.

In his tone, he was not very panicked about the arrival of the Imperial Guard, but instead he was a little disdain and contempt.

The officers and soldiers surrounded and suppressed things. They have experienced a lot of experience and have long been used to it.

The officers and soldiers of the imperial court were not afraid.

Now that the Imperial Guards are heading south, it is just a change of a group of officers and soldiers.

Can a qualitative leap in the combat power of a group of officers and soldiers be replaced by a group of officers and soldiers?

In the eyes of the Second Head, the Imperial Guard was nothing more than the previous local officers and soldiers, and there was nothing scary about it.

In the past, when officers and soldiers came to encircle and suppress, their Heilongzhai used their understanding of the terrain of Taihu Lake to play hide-and-seek with the officers and soldiers, and occasionally attacked the officers and soldiers.

Once the officers and soldiers chased after him, they immediately fled and used the terrain to escape the pursuit of the officers and soldiers.

If the officers and soldiers do not pursue them, they will harass the officers and soldiers until they can't stand it.

After many days of harassment and sneak attacks, the officers and soldiers will be exhausted in no time.

At that time, you will take all your strength to give the officers and soldiers a fatal blow and completely defeat the officers and soldiers' offensive.

In the past ten years, Heilongzhai has encountered three encirclements and suppression, which has repelled the officers and soldiers in this way.

The second in commander has already had a lot of experience in how to deal with officers and soldiers.

On the contrary, Zhu Kui, the leader of Heilongzhai, had a slightly solemn expression and attached great importance to the arrival of the Imperial Guard.

"Second brother, don't be arrogant!"

"The Imperial Guard is also a powerful army of Wu after all, and it should not be underestimated."

"When doing things, be more careful and do not capsize in the gutter."

"You are too worried about it, just an imperial guard, it's not worth mentioning!" The second head of the army did not take Zhu Kui's words too seriously.

"Brother, you don't know about the news about other villages."

"Half a month ago, the Imperial Guard took action."

"As a result, there has been no progress in the past half month."

"In my opinion, the Imperial Guard is just a little more famous, and there is actually nothing scary!"

The second leader is arrogant and naturally has the confidence to be arrogant.

When the Imperial Guard had just arrived in Taihu Lake, the Eighteen Villages of Taihu Lake were indeed in panic and people were in panic.

But as the war began, they found that the Imperial Guards were nothing scary.

With the help of understanding the terrain, the other imperial guards had basically not gained much in the past half month.

The same is true for the Imperial Guards led by the Fifth Prince.

"Master, I will take my brothers and give the Imperial Guard a look."

The second head of the army volunteered, but Zhu Kui did not stop him, but just kindly raised his mouth.

"Be careful about everything!"

"Don't worry, brother, wait for me to return to triumph!"

Looking at the back of the second head of the family leaving with great confidence, Zhu Kui couldn't help but feel uneasy.

He always felt that this time the Imperial Guard encirclement was different from the previous encirclement of officers and soldiers.

The second in commander brought fifty confidants, boarded ten small boats, and sailed towards the Imperial Guard's warship.

Half an hour later.

The Second Head and others saw the Imperial Guard Fleet from afar.

The Imperial Guard's warships are thirty feet long, like ancient beasts. Just a glance gives people a great sense of oppression.

However, after seeing the Imperial Guard's warship, the second head of the army looked disdainful.

"It's this big and stupid warship again."

"The officers and soldiers are such idiots!"

"This kind of big and stupid warship is not easy to use in Taihu Lake."

The second leader certainly understood that the warships with the Imperial Guard were large in size and powerful.

However, the Taihu water bandits would not have head-on conflicts with the officers and soldiers, but would have been more about guerrilla and sneak attacks.

They drove small boats. When they retreated, they drilled into the reed marsh. The officers and soldiers used big and stupid warships, so they had no choice.

The court did not know this situation, but if it were to learn from Taihu water bandits to use small boats, wouldn’t it be that they would have abandoned their own martial arts and wasted their greatest advantages, and used their own shortcomings to attack the enemy’s strengths?

"Second leader, when will we do it?" asked the confidant of the second leader.

The bandits on the ten small boats were all ready to try.

The second head of the army waved his hand and told everyone to be calm.

"Let's do it in the evening!"

A murderous intention flashed in the second head of the family's eyes.

Although he looked down on the Imperial Guard, he was not arrogant.

In the evening, it is an excellent attack time.

After a fight, the sun sets when retreating.

With the cover of night, understanding the terrain, getting rid of the imperial guards, isn’t it as easy as eating and drinking water?

Time is lost bit by bit.

The scorching sun quietly sets west.

Seeing that the time was ripe, the second head of the army said to the water bandits behind him.

"Young guys, do it!"

After saying that, ten small boats rushed out like arrows.

When they rushed out of the reed marsh, they were only less than three thousand feet away from the Royal Guard fleet.

At such a close distance, the Imperial Guard was discovered by the Imperial Guard the moment the Second Head and the others appeared.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The shouts of killing soar into the sky.

Ji Tianci naturally heard the sound of killing. He looked into the distance and saw ten small boats coming towards them.

Total, there are only fifty people.

"Only fifty people!"

"The Heilongzhai's work is too small!"

Ji Tianci curled his lips and complained dissatisfiedly.

Old An explained with a chuckling.

"Your Highness, the water bandits are fighting in this way. There are not many people who take action every time, but they are all elite."

"They never go to war head-on with the officers and soldiers!"

After hearing Mr. An’s explanation, Ji Tianci shook his head in disappointment.

"Fifty people, not enough to even plug the teeth!"

Ji Tianci sighed.

If someone else said this, An would have scolded the other party for being arrogant and arrogant.

Old An knew very well that it was easy to repel fifty water bandits, but it was difficult to annihilate them.

However, this was said by Ji Tianci, and he couldn't refute Ji Tianci's face in person.

The other gentry in Gusu County also had a faint disappointment flashing in their eyes.

They felt that the fifth prince personally fought against him, and it seemed that ordinary officers and soldiers were encircled and suppressed him, and it was no different.

"It seems that the money has been gone for nothing!" The head of the Tian family sighed.
