There are three rivers flowing through Anyang County. In addition to the Dajiang Yashui at the northernmost junction with Guang County, there are two smaller ones, one from the south and one from the north, with the Yuan River in the south and the Bai River in the north.
Compared with the defensive attributes given to the Yuan River in the south, the Baihe River in the north is much better. It originates from Heyuan City, a large city in the central part of Anyang County, and flows through Ancheng, the capital of Anyang County, and Nanhu City, a large city in the eastern part of Anyang County, and then passes through Sucheng, formerly Hanoi County, eventually merged into Yashui at Danggang, and then flowed eastward into Jiangzhou, becoming the most important lifeline of river transport trade in Anyang County.
As the easternmost point of Anyang County above the Baihe River, Nanhu City has always been a large city with prosperous commerce and military. Not only is the army stationed here all year round, but it is also equipped with a not too large navy, which serves as a lock on the Baihe River. The downstream checkpoints are enough.
But since Guang County marched eastward and swallowed up the two rivers of Hanoi County, and then crossed Yashui south to capture Liucheng and Sucheng, the originally peaceful atmosphere of singing and dancing in the northern part of Anyang County has changed a little, especially in Danggang After the last lone seedling of the Shen family surrendered to Anyang, border towns such as Nanhu City and Meizhou City increased their garrisons, so that the chilly atmosphere on the border remained for a long time.
Under such an atmosphere, the port of Nanhu City naturally became tense. Merchant ships coming and going could frequently see the navy performing exercises, entering and exiting the port. No one dared to make mistakes when doing so, and the port order was better than before. too much.
It was still dark on this day, and there were already people lining up outside the port, because a large ship heading west through Nanhu City to the capital Anseong was about to enter the port.
Not long after, the port
News came from inside that the checkpoints guarded and searched by soldiers began to work. Cars, horses and pedestrians began to flow, entering in an orderly manner, and boarding the ship in order.
When boarding the ship, the carriages and pedestrians are naturally separated. The carriages are divided into trucks and passenger cars. Relatively speaking, there are fewer passenger cars. Even if the way to board the ship is wide, the area on the ship is also spacious. .
But in such a spacious area, something went wrong. The two coachmen accidentally rubbed their wheels together. The coachman waved his whip in desperation, and the horses on the two vehicles were frightened and crowded. Went to a narrow corner with no one around.
The entourage of the coachmen on both sides hurriedly got out of the carriage, and after each calmed down the horses, a quarrel inevitably broke out. Then the entourage of both sides also swarmed up, quarreled, and vaguely protected and surrounded the two carriages, even the servants on board who maintained order. If you come to mediate, it will be difficult to calm down even for a moment.
But no one noticed that just as the two parties were confronting each other, the curtains of the two adjacent carriages each opened a corner, revealing two familiar faces of Luo Chuan.
One of the middle-aged men had a square face, lively eyebrows, broad lips and beard, and an extraordinary bearing. He was Su Yiming, a guest minister from Li County. He had appeared in Danggang. He opened the curtain, looked at the wheels first, and then clicked his tongue. He sighed, "No wonder Lord Jin is really angry. The girl's collision was really heavy. It was an oak wheel, but two of its spokes were broken."
The person who opened the curtain on the other side was a beautiful girl with a beautiful smile. After hearing Su Yiming's words, she was not embarrassed and just covered her mouth.
A smile revealed a pair of sparkling beautiful eyes, but it was the mysterious leader behind Qiu Feng, Yin Huayu, "I heard that the young master rewarded Mr. Su with a lot of money in those days. It's just two spokes, nothing worth Mr. Su's sighs."
Su Yiming laughed it off and said, "The girl is anxious to see Su, but what does the prefect have to tell you?"
"It's indeed important," Hua Yu stopped smiling. She looked back and saw a slender black figure in the carriage behind her waving her hand, and a small and unobtrusive soundproof barrier had been placed between the two carriages. When the magic circle was completed, she said solemnly, "The highest secret line of the Anbu, coupled with the highest secret order of Qiu Feng, delivered the young master's words to my hands as quickly as possible."
Su Yiming was shocked when he heard this. He looked around, lowered the car curtains and asked, "Girl, please tell me."
When Hua Yu saw this, she also lowered her car curtain. Neither of them could see each other's faces, only each other's voices, "Young master said, He Yucheng fell, Nan Yi marched northward in large numbers, and soon the coalition forces moved south."
After saying this sentence, both carriages fell into a long silence. It can be seen that these seventeen words brought great shock to Su Yiming.
After a long time, Su Yiming's words came from Su Yiming's side, clearly carefully considering the words, "Heyu City is not as good as Nankou City, but it can also fall. So the Nanyi's massive march north is completely inevitable, but this coalition... Yongchang County is weak Chaos, too busy to take care of itself, Anyang County... Dare I ask you, girl, what is the situation in Yuanbeicheng now?"
Hua Yu said, "Originally, this time when Nanyi went north, the offensive was fierce.
, Xiaoyao Valley did not send much help. Even if Yan Siyu probably really wanted to live and die with Yuanbeicheng this time, it was difficult to resist. So the Nanyi side attacked the city wall several times, and even entered the city, but at the critical moment , three Wangchuan Sword Cultivators of the Third Realm descended from the sky, and jointly used extremely powerful moves, severely injuring two Nanyi Monsters of the Third Realm, and forced the beast tide back to the south of Yuan River, which was temporarily stabilized. Lived in the Yuanhe defense line of Anyang County. "
Su Yiming muttered, "The Yan family in Anyang still has some luck. In this way, even if it is a rare respite, it is still too difficult to get Yan Siyu to agree to the coalition forces going south to recover Heyu City, so... .....The only one in Guangjun is Yunbailou..."
Hua Yu was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "Mr. Su, do you think Yongchang County like this... is still necessary to exist?"
In the carriage on the other side, Su Yiming fell into a long silence again. After a long time, he slowly spoke, "It all depends on the determination of the prefect. Yicheng is different from Sancang. It is the Yongchang Meng family that has been carefully managing it for hundreds of years." ...The city of Daxing," he paused and asked suddenly, "May I ask, girl, after going west to Ancheng, where does the governor want the girl to go?"
Hua Yu said, "Young Master didn't say anything, but Hua Yu was thinking... the next stop is to go to Xingcheng. I wonder what you think, sir?"
Su Yiming sighed, "No wonder the prefect wants the girl to take charge of the autumn wind." He thought for a while and then said, "The prefect's army will definitely point to Yicheng when it goes north. In this way, Xingcheng will be prosperous."
It has become the key among the keys, but the danger may be great. The girl must be careful." He hesitated for a moment but did not say more, but said, "After Su arrives in Ancheng, he must first go to see A man later went to Guang County to look for Yun Bailou, and asked the girl to pass a message to the prefect on Su's behalf, saying...Su was going to see an old friend of his, so he didn't have to worry about his future. untie......"
