“Now that we know the location of this territory and its lord and considering that we re choosing to launch a surprise attack in the dead of night, with our Strength, we can definitely take it down easily!”

After speaking, a confident expression appeared on Willows face.

“Lord Willow, your strategic brilliance is truly admirable! 1 have the utmost respect for you!”

“You will undoubtedly be the greatest hero of this operation!”

In the lord’s mansion.

“My Lord, since you already know that those people are imposters, why don’t you capture them now?”

Wilus said with a puzzled expression.

Jichen shook his head calmly, “Setting traps now will only alert the other enemies. What I want is to capture all the enemies at once.”

“Are you suggesting that we deceive the enemies on those ships to come here, and then capture them all in one fell swoop?” Willow asked.

Let’s revisit the moment when Ji Chen concluded his investigation of the ideal location for the Large Water Fort. As he observed the seascape from the lighthouse, he noticed a ship approaching the New Moon Islands. Initially, he assumed it was Raymond arriving as anticipated. However, his surprise grew when the alert lighthouse also detected three more ships. Unlike rhe first ship, these three vessels remained stationary at a significant distance from the archipelago, concealing their presence from casual observation.

Upon seeing someone other than Raymond disembarking from the first ship, Ji Chen instantly knew that these people were not to be trusted. The most likely possibility was that they wanted to occupy the New Moon Islands.

With this in mind, Ji Chen took a deep breath. The thing he had been unwilling to consider had finally happened. The New Moon Islands were located in the Stormy Seas, near busy trade routes, naturally possessing a geographical advantage.

Even if they did nothing but build a port here, they could collect docking fees, sell food and freshwater, and make a fortune. But along with tremendous benefits came the greed of others, and it was only a matter of time before the New Moon Islands attracted the covetous gaze of others.

Ji Chen had mentally prepared for this, bur he hadn’t expected it to happen so soon. Just after seeing off the first guest, Raymond, he was faced with this situation.

Although he didn’t know what was going on with Raymond ar the moment, whether he was truly sick or encountering other problems, one thing was certain: these people were not here for trade; they were enemies.

“That’s right.” Ji Chen paced inside the house. “Since the enemies want to attack the territory, based on the current situation, they should secretly leave to relay information and launch a surprise attack in the dead of night.”

“In that case, we will turn the tables on them and prepare a welcoming ceremony.”

Willow nodded in agreement.

Though he didn’t know the specifics of the Lord’s idea of a welcoming ceremony, he knew it couldn’t be anything good.

Late at night, the territory fell into silence. Snoring sounds could be heard from the houses, and the buzzing of insects filled the jungle.

Slowly, the worn-out thatched roof of a house was pushed open, and a person cautiously poked their head out. Seeing that there was no one around, they let out a sigh of relief.

They turned back and whispered, “No one outside.”

Willow nodded and ordered his men to walk into the forest.

Ji Chen stood in rhe forest on the other side, watching them disappear. A cold expression appeared on his face.

Willow and the others followed the traces of the powder left behind and returned to the beach. They steered the small boat back to the ship.

He immediately ordered.

“I’ve already found the location of the lord and his territory. Quickly inform the other ships.”

Upon hearing this, three elite guards of the caravan ran into the cabin and took out a few special peregrines bred by the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce. They stuffed a small note into the letter box at their feet.

With a wave of his hand, the peregrine falcon leaped up and flew into the distance.

An hour later, the three ships that received the news silently sailed over from the open sea and met up with Willow and the others.

He put down more than ten small boats and sent rhe guards of the Chamber of Commerce on the boats to the beach.

This process took two hours.

Looking at the hundreds of fully-armed guards of the Chamber of Commerce in front of him, Willow s confidence had already swelled to the extreme.

With such a powerful force, it was a piece of cake to push that territory.

At that time, he would become a hero of the entire Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce!

These elite guards of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce were nor people he could order around normally. They could only be used after the approval of many members of the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce.

[Military characteristic: Hire (a regular guard team hired by the Hanseatic Chamber of Commerce with high salaries. They have high loyalty and are not easy to betray or cower in battle.]

In his eyes, there was no doubt about the strength of these guards.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart.

Willow said in a low voice,” All of you, lower your footsteps and reduce your movements. We are about to attack the target territory and kill the lord and all the enemy troops. Leave no one alive.”

None of the guards answered, but the bloodlust and cruelty in their eyes had fully revealed their thoughts.

Seeing this. Willow nodded in satisfaction. He waved his hand and let the guards of the Chamber of Commerce walk into the forest. He followed closely behind, with the remaining guards bringing up the rear..
