Chapter 1923: The Plan Has Begun

At this time, at another location in Australia.

Li He agreed to Delu's Method, and he would carry out this assassination.

Three days later, the Longyan Squad led by Li He, with the cooperation of Delu, successfully snuck into his mansion.

Inside this massive estate, there was not only Li He's Longyan Squad.

There were also guards from the French troops; these guards were the elite of the elite, specifically responsible for the safety of Delu and Huo En.

However, in order to increase the probability of success for this operation, Delu specifically replaced the troops responsible for protecting their safety, with the goal of ensuring the success of this operation.

And in order for this operation plan to succeed, Li He also made many preparations.

They prepared the most advanced revolvers currently in Longyan; these pistols were the ones issued back when General Qin Zhangfeng led the Longyan Army.

Now, there are only these few left.

The biggest difference between these pistols and those ordinary Musket is that this type of pistol can fire seven shots in succession, possessing very powerful force and firing speed.

They belong to the kings among Musket.

It is very rare to find Musket that can achieve continuous firing now.

Just like such pistols.

There are even fewer.

Although their Longyan Army lost most of their supplies and also lost the battle line on Tasmania, these pistols were kept completely intact.

It must be said that this is a matter worth rejoicing over.

Originally, Li He was prepared to stockpile these revolvers to guard against a day when more intense combat might break out.

So as to use these few pistols to break out of a heavy encirclement.

But now it seems that the critical moment has arrived.

The French troops landed on the Australian island, and Li He absolutely could not tolerate such a thing happening; this was not just because the French troops were occupying Australia.

It was also because his wife and children were currently on the Australian continent as well.

If those animals from the French troops landed on the Australian continent, he was very worried about the safety of his wife and children.

Especially under the intelligence provided by Delu, he learned what the current state of those Longyan Army troops on the continent was.

As one of the most powerful troops in the world.

Li He found it hard to believe that the current Longyan Army had such a level of combat, actually allowing the French troops to successfully land on the island so easily.

This is simply a disgrace to their Longyan Army troops!

After such a pathetic display of strength, Li He could only take a risk now, hoping to slow down the actions of these French troops.

When late night arrived, they quickly launched their action.

These Longyan Army troops were just like the darkness in the middle of the night, impossible to see clearly.

Because there was the underground castle terrain map provided by Delu, Li He did not spend much effort entering the castle.

It could even be said to be effortless, for those of them in the Longyan Special Forces.

Such obstacles, such defenses, had no way at all to affect the actions of their Longyan Army.

To them, these were all just the most basic Longyan Army training.

When they received the mission, they were very worried about whether they could complete it, but now it seems their worry was completely unnecessary.

Such a situation simply did not exist.

But they did not underestimate the enemy, nor did they dare to let their guard down.

This was only the outermost protection of the castle.

The target of their assassination was in the deepest, most secure place in this castle; if they wanted to achieve success, it would inevitably be a very difficult matter.

Li He led the Longyan Army to start the operation from the top floor of the castle.

They snuck into the castle like ghosts, without attracting anyone's attention.

And according to the castle guard forces that Delu told them about

As well as the defense and patrol map here, such an operation was simply as easy as turning over one's hand.

But what followed would be the most difficult part.

Because the defense troops below the castle were all set up personally by General Huo En, and even Delu did not know how much military force there was or where guards had been planted.

Although this was Delu's castle, the design inside this castle had been redesigned by General Huo En.

Even Delu, the original owner of this castle, had no way of knowing.

Li He took a deep breath and used hand signals to remind the Longyan Squad of the next move.

"Leave two people to keep watch, the rest follow me down. Remember not to act rashly; if an accident occurs, use bird calls as a contact signal."

Li He made a series of hand signals.

Everyone nodded, indicating they all understood.

Li He looked at the pitch-black spiral staircase below and gently probed downward.

This was located at the top of the castle; to assassinate General Huo En, one must reach the bottom of this castle.

Li He walked like a cat, without making any sound.

They had not walked for long before they saw French soldiers guarding the stairs.

A member of the Longyan Squad was just about to make a move, but was stopped by Li He. That person was stunned, and Li He pointed to the side.

They looked over and discovered it was a hidden sentry of the French troops.

If they had made a move just now, they would definitely have alerted the French troops' hidden sentry; by then, let alone the failure of this assassination operation, they would also face a tremendous crisis.

Seeing those hidden sentries.

The Longyan Squad caught their breath, not daring to act lightly again.

Li He made a hand signal to command them.

"Two people sneak over from the left; I will use the blowgun to take out this French Soldier!"

A blowgun is a short tube containing hidden weapons; when used, one can blow through it with their mouth. Its power is not great, but these blowguns all contain highly paralytic poison.

As long as a person is hit, they will fall into a deep sleep within a few minutes, and the person hit will feel as if they were bitten by a mosquito, almost never noticing it.

Following Li He's hand signals, the Longyan Squad quickly began to act, sneaking over along the path on the left.

Meanwhile, Li He had long since aimed the blowgun at the French Soldier who was out in the open.

They had to act simultaneously to take out both sentries so as not to trigger an alarm.

Li He watched as the members of his Longyan Squad snuck over, readying their equipment to strike.

Li He puffed out his cheeks and blew hard; a tiny, highly poisonous dart pierced into the French Soldier's neck, and he fell to the ground at the sound.

At the same time, the other members of the Longyan Squad also acted.

This hidden sentry's throat was slit by a blade; he did not even have time to react before he was completely dead.

After taking out these two sentries, Li He led the Longyan Squad to continue forward.

Along the way, they encountered quite a few French sentries.

There were all sorts of arrangements.

Li He chose to bypass some, and those that could not be bypassed were all assassinated by Li He one by one.

Counting them up, they had killed nearly fifteen French sentries.

If one did not count the French Soldiers outside, this was already a fairly large protective team.

Although the process had a few twists and turns, it was not a major problem, and they finally arrived in front of Huo En's room.

Li He made a hand signal once again and ordered: "Spread out, guard the surroundings, and put on your masks!"

Li He took out incense from his clothes; this was a type of Hypnotic Incense.

It has a sleep-inducing effect, and now Li He was using this incense to make the final preparations.

He opened a crack in the door, lit the incense, placed it inside, and waited quietly for a while.
