Chapter 905 There is a new message ([-])
"Only relying on us to kill the entire Five Elements Banner Alliance?"

"Uh..." Qi Ke was a little embarrassed, and felt like he was talking big. "Of course, the court should be the main force in fighting pirates. The most we can do is provoke the pirates' anger and speed up the preparations for the war."

If the pirates come and disappear once, it will not only provoke anger, but there will probably be rumors of ghosts at sea.

"...Why do I think that this time the Five Elements Banners Alliance's unified action is the Black Banner Gang's revenge? Where is Qingshui Port?" Qi Ke frowned abruptly, as if thinking about it.

"The port where overseas goods land directly to Dong'an Prefecture is called Shuanghe Town." Zhaolin projected a map, marking the distance between Dong'an Prefecture and Shuanghe Town, Jiuzhi Mountain in Heyang Prefecture, where springs converge into waterfalls or undercurrents flow from all sides of the mountain There are countless rivers gushing out, and the large and small water systems intertwine. From the terrain of Shuanghe Town, it can be clearly seen that two small rivers meet and then go out to the sea.

"This is also an outlet to the sea."

"Hekou Bay is the only outlet of the main stream of the Jiuzhi River. In terms of development prospects, Hekou Bay is the best." Zhaolin zoomed in on the map, "Look carefully, these two small rivers are some distance away from Dong'an Mansion, and they are not the draft of the people in the city. He, the goods from Shuanghe Town to Fucheng are actually going by land."

"Really." Qi Ke nodded in agreement. It can be clearly seen on the map that there is a waterway between Donglin County and Dong'an Mansion. "Are all the counties under the government of Fucheng connected by waterways? If so, what about this layout?" It's pretty good."

Zhaolin projected a larger map, marked the location of the prefectural city and counties, and highlighted the connected rivers, either passing through the city or going around the city. Anyway, the waterway is smooth, but from the county to the villages and towns below, The road conditions are hard to describe, just like the first half of the year when Gou Neck Town asked for help, the journey was half water and half land, and it was difficult to transport some food for aid.

The Shuanghe River in Shuanghe Town converges at the boundary of the town. Before the confluence, the two small rivers flow down into Shuanghe Town from the north side, and the river passing through the city in Fucheng comes from a river in the west. The boats in Fucheng had to enter this river to enter the city through the water and land gates. This river was also named Dong'an River because of the city.

"A big fat sheep escaped two ships and arrived at Qingshui Port. General Bai was sitting in Fucheng. As soon as the news of the pirates' collective action spread, he was the first to bear the brunt of the accusations from the court and the people. Tsk tsk, the general is not so easy to do. "Qi Ke looked sympathetic, shook her head and sighed, she had a good impression of that Confucian-style General Bai, and she was quite pleasing to the eye.

"The Black Flag gang lost a fighting boat and a boat of men. They must have finally found out how the boat was lost. They made a big case at sea to take revenge on the Bai family army. Their motives are very reasonable."

"Well, although there was no public announcement about the Black Flag gang's fighting boat, there are many insiders, so it's not surprising that some gossip has leaked out."

"Who can guarantee that the officials at all levels of government offices will keep their mouths shut when the rewards from the imperial court are sent to Dong'an Mansion?"

"Yes, the most likely place to leak the news is Dong'an Prefecture, the first city where overseas goods come ashore. It has prosperous commerce, dense population and high mobility. Pirates do not do production. Daily necessities always depend on the mainland, and they hide in the city. If you want to hide a few people, Dong'an Mansion is the first choice, and you don't have to worry about any gossip."
