Chapter 37 Hidden dangers (first update)
The northern border is located at the Lanjing River.

The location of Lanjinghe is very special.A red river runs through both banks, with forests on the left and right, and only a wooden bridge can reach it.

It is said that Lanjing River once had a beautiful legend.Just on the bank of this river, more than 100 years ago, a powerful country was once shaped.

It's a pity that this country only existed for 30 years.From prosperity to decline, it seems like a game, very weird.It is said that the reason why this country was destroyed was because the emperor's daughter-in-law, that is, the queen, returned to the west, so the emperor missed the queen all day long and stopped managing the government. In the end, in order to accompany the queen forever, he disbanded the country and took the The queen's coffin came to the Lanjing River, and then she jumped into it.

Because the old emperor dissolved the country before committing suicide, the country fell apart instantly.Everyone wanted to be the emperor, so they attacked each other. Within a few years, the once powerful country was full of corpses.The bright red blood even dyed Lan Jinghe red.

Some relatively rational forces took their own citizens and left Lan Jinghe and the land that raised them.

When Huang Yun heard that there was a problem with Lan Jing River, the first thing he thought of was the situation near Lan Jing River.

Although that country has been destroyed for decades, Huang Yun is still worried that there are still survivors in this country living around the Lanjing River.

If that is the case, it is inevitable that some disputes will arise.After all, Huang Yun has brought Lan Jinghe into his sphere of influence.

Because the speed of the dragon horse was too fast, Huang Yun couldn't wait for the follow-up troops at all, so Huang Yun asked Zhou Cang to lead a hundred troops behind and rush to Lanjinghe.As for Huang Yun himself, riding a dragon horse, he rushed to Lan Jinghe first to see the situation.

Longma's current speed has reached the ability to travel thousands of miles a day, so in just over an hour, he has already arrived at the location of the Lanjinghe garrison.

According to the original discussion, for the time being, there will be a group of ten people in the surrounding area, with a group leader, rotating every seven days.And for the safety of the soldiers, a simple guardrail was specially built.The beacon tower that lit the smoke stood in the middle of the soldiers' residence.

When Huang Yun arrived, he happened to see several soldiers tying each other's belts.It can be seen that they have suffered some minor injuries.

His face sank, someone attacked his border, that was undoubtedly a slap in his face, no matter who he was, Huang Yun would destroy him.

Huang Yun was outside the fence and knocked on the fence.

Hearing the movement, one of the uninjured soldiers immediately woke up and relaxed a little when he saw that it was Huang Yun.

Huang Yun knew this person. He was Li Si, the team leader this time. When he was appointed as team leader, Huang Yun happened to go to the military station for a routine inspection, so he had met him once.

"What's going on, why are you all covered in injuries?"

When Huang Yun saw that the other party knew him, he was no longer polite.

"Report to Your Majesty, just now a group of pirates suddenly attacked our defense line, and a fight broke out." Li Si bent over, not daring to raise his body at all.

This is the case in this world. As a subordinate, one must respect the superior.

"pirate?"

Huang Yun muttered, since he came to this world, Huang Yun has never heard of pirates.As soon as Huang Yun heard the word pirates, Huang Yun thought of the Caribbean Sea. The pirates there are guys who specialize in robbing the surrounding merchant ships, but the surrounding countries, even some huge empires, have nothing to do with them. It can be seen that the pirates powerful.

It's just that although the pirates are powerful, the Lanjing River here is narrow and the water is not very deep. How could there be pirates?
"Go, take me to the beach." Huang Yun pointed to the beach and ordered.

"Yes." Li Si's face was covered with sweat at this moment, which showed how terrifying Huang Yun's majesty was in his heart.

When he came to the Lanjing River, Huang Yun walked a few times, and found that there was indeed a ship landing, it seemed that Li Si and the others were not lying.However, judging from the traces on the surface, these boats seem to be only a little stronger than ordinary bamboo rafts.

As for the Lanjing River, the river level has risen a lot due to continuous heavy rains recently. Otherwise, those pirates would not have landed at this time and attacked our soldiers.

"How many people are they here?" Huang Yun turned around and asked.

"Your Majesty, this time they only came with a vanguard, about seventeen or eight people." Li Si recalled for a moment, and then replied cautiously.

There are seventeen or eighteen people in one pioneer, so if all the pirates in the entire pirate den are dispatched, the consequences will be disastrous.

It seems that this pirate is definitely not something that the border soldiers can resist.

While Huang Yun was thinking about what to do, Zhou Cang had already led a hundred soldiers to the temporary residence in a hurry.

Seeing the soldiers he had carefully trained with wounds, Zhou Cang's eyes suddenly widened, showing how much he cared about these soldiers in his heart.

There is no way, these soldiers have all passed through his hands, and the people he trained are just like his children.

Under Zhou Cang's questioning, Li Si explained what he said to Huang Yun just now.Hearing Li Si's explanation, Zhou Cang's brows also tightened. Presumably he also realized the horror of pirates.

"Your Excellency...?" Zhou Cang said hesitantly.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say, why bother to delay mom." Huang Yun shouted dissatisfied.

"When the last general was in the surrounding area in the past, he once called on the surrounding forces. I remember that there was a pirate organization among them. Their strength was very terrifying. It is said that the entire pirate city, regardless of men, women, or children, can participate in the war."

All men, women and children, old and young, can participate. Isn't that all people are soldiers?

Huang Yun had already thought that this group of pirates was very strong, but he didn't expect that they were so ridiculously strong.

"Then is there a way to solve this trouble?"

"The general believes that before the hatred between the two parties has grown, we should first make peace with them, and then gradually devour them." Zhou Cang thought for a while and thought this method was appropriate.This has something to do with Zhou Cang's personality. He will not participate in or do anything that is too dangerous.

"Peace?" Huang Yun looked at Zhou Cang with displeasure and said, "Look, the soldiers you trained have all been injured for the country. Don't you have the heart to let them see us make peace?"

"This...!" Zhou Cang wondered.

"What, what, in the current situation, only by eliminating this group of invading enemies can we relieve our hatred." Huang Yun waved his horsewhip, pointed at the river and said, "Since they want to attack us, why do we have to sit and wait for death?"

Although this decision, on the surface, is very untimely.But only Huang Yun knew that he had to do this now.Otherwise, once I lead the army to the front line of Yundan and fight Mangniu, what should I do if these pirates go ashore and plunder the surrounding area?
Huang Yun absolutely cannot allow such a big hidden danger, so when the hidden danger does not erupt, it should be eliminated.
