Finally, the wolf mercenary regiment, which is the strongest in the east and has the most fierce combat effectiveness, is defended by 1900 defenders led by Shirley, Bart, and the captain of the second and third brigades.

After Lord Green made the arrangements, Shirley asked, "Are there enough food and water sources in Lighthouse City?"

Lord Green said with a smile: "General Shirley, you don't have to worry about this at all. Our Lighthouse City is a famous gourmet city all over the country. How can there be a lack of food? We have countless gourmet restaurants here. We have done a statistics before. Even without any preparation, relying solely on the food stored by the folks in Lighthouse City, it can last for two months."

Shirley nodded and asked, "What about the water?"

Lord Green said with a smile: "There is no need to worry about this, just look at the map."

Lord Green pointed to the environmental map of Lighthouse City and the surrounding generation on the table and said: "For the sake of war, our Lighthouse City had two water storage lakes, one large and one small. Look, they are the Northwest Small Lake located in the northwest. , and the Southeast Great Lake in the southeast. The water storage capacity of the two storage lakes, the Northwest Small Lake and the Southeast Great Lake, is enough to use the Lighthouse City for three months!"

Shirley nodded and said, "Well, we need to strengthen inspections of these two lakes to avoid any problems. Also, pay attention to this clear water river that flows into the southeastern Great Lake."

Shirley pointed to a river on the map. This river flowed from the East Forest outside the East City Wall, flowed through a flat land, and then flowed into the southeast lake in Lighthouse City. It was called the Clear Water River.

Xue Li continued: "It is necessary to cut off the water of the Bishui River from flowing into the Northeast Great Lake, so as to prevent the evil wolf mercenaries from poisoning the Bishui River and polluting the Southeast Great Lake."

Lord Green nodded and said, "I'll arrange someone to do it right now."

However, at this moment, a panicked voice sounded outside the meeting room: "My lord, my lord!"

I saw a city hall clerk running in with a panicked face.

Lord Green frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

The clerk anxiously said: "My lord, among the citizens of Lighthouse City, more than 2000 people have been poisoned by drinking water!"

Lord Green was surprised, and asked, "What's going on? Why are you telling me now?"

The civil servant said anxiously: "Well, in fact, some people were poisoned by drinking water last night, but only a few dozen people. However, this morning, the number of people poisoned by drinking water has exploded, and soon exceeded 2000! The number of people poisoned by water has far exceeded [-]!"

The surrounding generals and City Lord Green were all surprised, and City Lord Green quickly asked, "What's the reason? Why are so many people suddenly poisoned by drinking water?"

The civil official shook his head in a panic and said, "No, I don't know. The water affairs department is still investigating, but I guess that the two storage lakes are likely to be polluted!"

As soon as the civil servant said this, the generals in the audience were shocked.Now is the critical time, the reservoir must not go wrong!

Lord Green asked, "You can't talk nonsense! Why do you think so?"

The civil official hurriedly said: "Because I found out that people who drink water are poisoned by region. Moreover, the regional reservoirs in the regions where people were poisoned were replenished from the two major reservoirs after nine o'clock last night. water!"

(ps: Lighthouse City has a special water supply system. Lighthouse City is divided into thousands of water supply areas, and each area has a reservoir called a regional reservoir. These reservoirs are built relatively high and have water pipes Leading to each household, a tap water supply system is formed. After the water in each regional reservoir is consumed to a certain extent, there will be special personnel to take water from the two major reservoirs to supplement the regional reservoir.)

After hearing the civil servant's words, City Lord Green felt his heart sink, and immediately shouted: "Where is Nader? Hurry up and ask Nader to come see me!"

This Nader is the director of water at Beacon City City Hall.

The civil servant immediately said: "I, I will go to Director Nat right away!"

After the civil servant finished speaking, he ran out.

The generals in the meeting room immediately discussed with concern.

At this time, Shirley still looked calm and calm, looked at the map on the desktop and said: "Our Lighthouse City is surrounded by front and back, and we cannot accept support from domestic cities. If the two storage lakes are polluted, then the Lighthouse City Besides this clear water river, is there any other source of water?"

Lord Green shook his head and said: "No more, the water we all drink in Lighthouse City is from this clear water river. But..."

Lord Green said with a worried expression: "Half of the water in the Bishui River is in the flood season every year. During the flood season, the water level is high and the water flow is high. The other half is in the non-flood season. The water level is low and the water flow is low. Now it is the water of the Bishui River. When the traffic is at its lowest, I remember that it is less than one-tenth of the average time, and I don’t know if it can meet the needs of the whole city.”

Xue Li said: "Anyway, if the two storage lakes are really polluted, this clear water river is our most important source of water. This clear water river is also in the east of the city, as is the wolf mercenary group. We have to Beware of people from the Wolf Mercenary Group approaching the Bishui River and polluting the upper reaches of the Bishui River."

City Lord Green nodded immediately, and immediately arranged for a general to notify the defenders on the east wall, and increased the monitoring of whether the Wolf Mercenary Group approached the Clear Water River.

The general had just left, and then a fat man in a civil official's uniform ran in in a panic. This big fat man was Nader, the director of water affairs.

As soon as Nader, the director of water affairs, came in, without waiting for City Lord Green to ask questions, he knelt on the ground with a mournful face, crying, "Master City Lord, it is dereliction of duty, dereliction of duty, which led to the destruction of the two storage lakes. Polluted!"

City Lord Green and the surrounding generals sank in their hearts.Lord Green asked: "The two storage lakes are really polluted?"

Nader, the director of water affairs, said with a sad face: "Yes, just now I heard that 2000 people were poisoned by drinking water, and they were all scattered in different areas. I became suspicious and immediately ordered people to investigate the water quality of the two storage lakes. Only then did I realize that the water in the two storage lakes has been poisoned!"

As soon as the director of water affairs made such affirmative words, the generals in the audience suddenly went into an uproar.

Lord Green gritted his teeth and asked, "When was it poisoned?"

"It should have happened after 08:30 last night, because the people who were poisoned drank the water from the lake after that time. It was all the fault of the lowly job. You can take it. My lord, please punish me, my lord, please punish me!"

Nader, the water director, wailed and admitted his mistake while stretching out his hand and slapping himself in the face.

As the important water source of Lighthouse City, the two storage lakes should be strictly guarded to avoid problems with the water source.One of the responsibilities of the director of water affairs, Nader, is to take care of the two storage lakes, so now that the two storage lakes have been poisoned, it is naturally his dereliction of duty, and it is an extremely serious dereliction of duty.

Lord Green gritted his teeth and remained silent. Nader, the director of water affairs, is actually a responsible person. Otherwise, Lord Green would not have appointed him as the director of water affairs.In this situation, it is useless to blame him blindly.

Nader, the director of water affairs, was even more frightened when he saw that Lord Green was silent. He knew that this was his serious dereliction of duty, and immediately admitted his mistake even more mournfully.

At this time, Xue Li said: "Send someone to see if the current water flow of the Bishui River is enough to meet the needs of the entire city."

Green reacted, nodded vigorously, and shouted to Nader: "Immediately investigate the water flow of the Bishui River for a day, whether it is enough for the consumption of the whole city for a day!"

"Yes Yes!"

Water director Nader nodded quickly, then stumbled out.

Just as Nader, the director of water affairs, left, an official ran in in a panic and said, "Report! Your lord, the citizens of the city are panicking!"

Lord Green was stunned and felt a headache. Today is really bad news one after another, and asked: "Why?"

The civil official said: "When Thomas led the army to attack the city this morning, it spread to the citizens through unknown channels. And the speed of transmission was very fast. Now many citizens know that our reinforcements suddenly became the enemy! "

The generals present were discussing worriedly.

Adjutant Borg said: "My lord, once the panic spreads, it will be bad. Should we treat this as a rumor and block it?"

Several generals present nodded in agreement.

However, Shirley said: "It can be concealed for a while, but it cannot be concealed for too long. Once it is revealed, it will definitely cause greater panic."

The generals were taken aback for a moment, and found that Shirley's words could not be refuted.

Bart nodded and said, "That's right, if the citizens know that we are concealing it, they will directly lose confidence in us. My top priority is to solve the current predicament first."

Lord Green nodded.

Shirley looked at the map and said: "We must now find a way to ensure that the Bishui River will not be polluted from the upper reaches."

I saw that the Bishui River flows out of the East Forest in the east, flows through a flat land, and then flows into the east wall of the Lighthouse City, and flows into the southeast Great Lake.

Shirley began to think about how to prevent the wolf mercenary group from entering the East Forest and polluting the upper reaches of the Bishui River.

However, due to the large area to be defended and the lack of troops, Xue Li couldn't think of a way for a while, and Liu Mei frowned slightly.

However, at this time, Green City Lord said: "It is very simple to prevent the pollution of the Bishui River. Just guard the distance between the Bishui River flowing out of the East Forest and then flowing into the Lighthouse City. Don't worry about the evil wolf mercenaries. More people entered the East Forest and polluted the upper reaches of the Clear Water River."

ps: second update

121. Uneasy

Shirley was taken aback and asked, "Why?"

The adjutant at the side, Borg, explained: "It's like this. At this time of year in the East Forest, the forest will be filled with dense miasma. If you inhale a little bit of miasma, you will feel dizzy and vomit. If you inhale a little more , life will be in danger. Therefore, no one can enter the Eastern Forest at this time."

Shirley nodded.If this is the case, it will be easy to handle, as long as the clear water river flows out of the east forest and then flows into the flat distance between the lighthouse city.Looking at the map, this section of flat land is about 2 kilometers wide.As long as you have yourself, there is still a way to do it.

Xue Li said: "The rest depends on whether the daily water flow of the Bishui River is enough for the daily needs of the whole city. Let's go to the scene to see."

Lord Green nodded, and immediately set off with Shirley Bart and several generals to the location of the Bishui River in the city.

A group of people left the city lord's mansion. In order to hurry, everyone did not take a carriage, but rode horses quickly through the urban area.

At this time in the urban area, citizens were coming and going. However, the urban area at this time did not have the usual lively atmosphere, but was filled with a heavy feeling.

Because everyone knows that the Cliff City army, which was supposed to be a reinforcement, has now turned into an enemy army, and even attacked the city, almost breaking through the city wall!

And there is also a gossip that is quietly spreading, that is, the reinforcements from various cities in the country that were supposed to arrive at noon today have not arrived yet.There were rumors that there had been a mutiny.It is said that at this time, Beacon City has fallen into a more serious crisis than before.

Others say that Beacon City has suffered an unprecedented conspiracy crisis.For example, some people say that the Wolf Mercenary Group colluded with Cliff City and the generals of the Radiant Empire to carry out a premeditated rebellion.

These news spread ten, ten, and hundreds, and spread very quickly. In addition, this is news that everyone is urgently concerned about, and it spreads even faster.

So at this time, there is an atmosphere of uneasiness in the streets of the city.

When Green City Lord Shirley and her party rode by, the citizens who saw them couldn't help but look this way.

"It's the Lord Green!"

"Green City Lord is looking so anxious?"

City Lord Green is usually very close to the people, so immediately someone greeted City Lord Green loudly, shouting: "City Lord Green!"

Although City Lord Green is in a hurry now, he still waved to the citizens with a smile.

Immediately, someone among the citizens said: "The one next to Lord Green, is it General Shirley?"

"That's right, with this white hair and white military uniform, it must be General Shirley!"

Although the citizens have never seen Shirley with their own eyes, everyone knows Shirley's appearance, and many people have seen Shirley's portrait, so everyone recognizes that it is Shirley.

For a moment, the citizens couldn't help but become a little excited. They all knew that Shirley led the defenders of Beacon City to defeat the wolf mercenary group and won a big victory.

So people keep shouting "General Shirley"

Some people were talking about it.

"I didn't expect General Shirley to be so young and beautiful. I thought the portraits were all fake."

"Hey, look at her face, her figure, she's strong, she's beautiful, and her figure is top-notch. It would be great if she could take her home and be her wife!"

"Hey, just dream. How could General Shirley like you? And General Shirley is completely loyal to Her Majesty the Queen. If you want to marry General Shirley, unless Her Majesty grants a marriage, then General Shirley will definitely not Refuse. But it's just a dream, too."

The citizens kept shouting "General Shirley" excitedly, at this moment, a little girl about five years old rushed out and stood in front of Shirley.Shirley quickly stopped the horse.

A general beside him immediately shouted: "Get out of the way! We have urgent matters!"

The little girl looked at Xue Li with a worried face and asked, "Sister General Xue Li, may I ask if our Lighthouse City is about to be invaded by bad guys?"

As soon as the little girl's words came out, the surrounding citizens suddenly became quiet, because this was also an issue of urgent concern to everyone.Although everyone knows that General Shirley is very, very powerful, the number of enemies seems to be increasing.

Shirley looked at the little girl with the same expressionless expression, but her voice was much softer and she said solemnly: "As long as you stay with me, Lighthouse City will not be invaded by any enemies."

A smile bloomed on the little girl's face.Immediately afterwards, the surrounding citizens also burst into cheers. With Shirley's promise, everyone immediately felt as if they had taken a reassurance.

At this time, a woman rushed out of the crowd, apologized to Shirley Liansheng, and then hurriedly led the little girl back into the crowd.

Shirley and her team continued to move forward quickly.The crowd soon arrived at the Clear Water River in Lighthouse City.
