"Pirate, where are you already?" Mu Xin asked nervously.
"We have passed Duanjiangkou and are heading towards Jiangning County." County soldiers responded.
People like Chu Yi, Mu Xin, and Li Qi who knew this side well all looked confused.
"Having passed Duanjiangkou? Are you sure?" Mu Xin looked in disbelief.
"That's right." The county soldier nodded.
"Where are the first two counties?" Li Qi asked nervously.
Jiangning County is not the county seat of Haikou, although the river on the edge is connected to the South China Sea.
However, there are two county towns in front of Jiangning County, one of which is Duanjiang County, or it is more appropriate to call it Jiangduan County.
The entire river is relatively gentle in that section, and it directly crosses Duanjiang County, dividing the entire county in two.
This is also the origin of the name Duanjiang County.
Further ahead is Jiangkou County, which borders the ocean. As the name suggests, it is the mouth of the river.
Now that the pirates have arrived in the waters of Jiangning County, what happened to the two county soldiers in front?
"Let's go! Go back to the county town, mobilize all the county soldiers, and prepare to defend against the enemy!" Mu Xin's face was solemn,
Fortunately, because of Yang Si's arrival yesterday, Mu Xin called back all the county soldiers who were originally assigned to help harvest grain like Jiangbei County.
Otherwise, the pirates would probably have arrived in the county in just the time it took to summon the county soldiers.
"Li Qi, you go to Jiangbei County. This is my token. Let Chen Tong mobilize all the soldiers from Jiangbei County." Yang Si said with the same solemn expression, and only threw his imperial envoy token to Li Qi. .
Li Qi responded: "Yes, Mr. Li, I'll go right now!"
Afterwards, Li Qi mounted his horse and headed straight to Jiangbei County.
Jiangbei and Jiangning counties are adjacent to each other. If we request support, people from Jiangbei County will be able to arrive quickly.
"Daughter-in-law, come back with me." Yang Si looked at Chu Yi and said.
Both of them are now eighth-level warriors. Eight-level warriors already have high-end combat power, and their role on the battlefield is not small.
"Yeah!" Chu Yi nodded. This is Nanhai. After all, it's her home, so it's her duty to do so.
"Similarly, we need to urgently treat people."
"Cousin, Qingyuan, you continue to treat the people of Jiangning County, leaving a few people to guide you."
Yang Si looked at Luo Qingyin and the others and made arrangements.
"This..." Luo Qingyin hesitated.
"Believe me, cousin! I will make sure these pirates never come back!"
The aura of an eighth-level warrior rose up on Yang Si's body.
"Okay, cousin, I believe you, don't undermine the Yang family's reputation." Luo Qingyin looked at Yang Si and nodded.
The two of them are only in the seventh realm, and they are also musicians, so their frontal combat abilities are relatively weak.
And they are also very aware of Yang Si's record.
Kill the bald donkey in the ninth realm and block the assassin warrior in the tenth realm.
Afterwards, the group of people divided into three groups.
Qingyuan was with Zhang Qi, and Luo Qingyin was with Luo Qingyue. They went in different directions to continue to treat people.
Yang Si, Chu Yi, and Mu Xin quickly returned to Jiangning County with their men, preparing to stop the pirates.
…
The group of people quickly returned to Jiangning County on horseback.
Now, Jiangning County has entered a state of preparation for war.
"Your Majesty the Imperial Envoy, Your Majesty the County Magistrate!"
Jiangning County's county troop commander, a Sixth Realm School Captain, immediately came forward to greet them.
As soon as he received the news, he had organized the county troops in Jiangning County and entered a state of preparation for war.
"How is the situation now?" Yang Si asked.
"Reporting to the Imperial Envoy, there are four pirate ships in total, and they are going upstream."
"However, the reason for going upstream is that they are not too fast. It is estimated that they will arrive in Jiangning in an hour at most."
Yang Si looked at the river beside the county town.
Jiangning County is right on the riverside and built along the river.
There are three walls, and the other side is indeed the shoal of the river, because there has never been any experience of pirates entering the river.
Moreover, Jiangning County is not Haikou County, so there are no city walls on the river shoal side, only some simple flood control walls.
The pirates only need to reach that side, and they can use the boat to land directly from the shoal.
"Urgent reinforcement of the flood control wall." Mu Xin said.
Although it is, it is obviously impossible to build a defensive wall at this time.
However, it is still possible to strengthen the flood control wall.
"It's already been arranged," the captain said.
To be able to sit in the position of commander of the county soldiers, he still has a sense of strategy.
"Let's go over there and have a look." Yang Si said.
Afterwards, a group of people entered Jiangning County and headed straight for the river shallows.
Where is Jiangning County Pier.
Convenient waterway transportation provides a lot of convenience for the development of Jiangning County.
However, facing these pirates entering the river now is the biggest crisis.
After Yang Si and others passed by, they saw busy county soldiers and some civilians, who were urgently thickening and heightening the simple flood control wall using sandbags and other things used for flood control when the river water rose.
There is a small high slope between Jiangning County and them. Under normal circumstances, even in the rainy season, the river water will not really spread into the county.
Therefore, this single flood control wall only works very rarely. Most of the time, it is just a decoration.
Naturally, it is relatively simple.
"Is there any news from Duanjiang County and Jiangkou County?" Mu Xin asked.
The county military captain shook his head: "I don't know yet, but since the pirates have already passed Duanjiangkou, I think the situation in the two counties will definitely not be too optimistic."
"That's right. The current situation is already a headache. Now that the pirates have come in, it's just adding insult to injury." Mu Xin was helpless.
"Don't worry, unless these pirates can have masters in the ten realms, or have thousands of troops, I will make sure they never come back." Yang Si was not too worried.
He is now an eighth-level warrior, and he still has seven million points in the system.
"We can't take it lightly. There are still some strong ones among the pirates." Chu Yi said.
Born in the Zhennan General's family, Chu Yi knew a lot about pirates.
"Moreover, some elite pirates also know the ways of military formations." Chu Yi added before finishing.
Hearing this, Yang Si nodded slightly, military formation.
Yang Si thought of the military formation formed by the Chang'an Imperial Guard under the command of his grandfather Yang Dingyue in Chang'an City.
If the military soul can be condensed, the increase that the power of the military formation can bring is really exaggerated.
…
The clock is ticking.
In the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed.
The simple flood control wall on this side of the river has reached a certain scale thanks to the efforts of some county soldiers and civilians.
However, there are not many county soldiers invested. They will still have to fight when the pirates come in. It is certainly impossible to invest a large number of manpower to build flood control walls.
Otherwise, how can we fight when we are exhausted?
The stacked flood control wall is certainly not as good as a regular city wall, but it can still be considered a hazard.
At this time, the shadow of the ship could be vaguely seen on the river downstream.
The pirates entering the river are here!
