The time was still a few hours before Yixin woke up, and the sky was still bright.
The autumn wind did not like it, and continued to blow to the southeast, blowing past several 41 ships with sampans loaded with firewood and difficult turns, and after blowing across a lake, it blew to the edge of a river mouth by the lake, blowing the red hair of many men.
The ancient tree shook its few fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and together shook its only fruit to the ground.
The Ten Men were scattered around the estuary or lake, doing their best to find everything from the ground or water to feed themselves for the next few days of fighting.
A little further in the mouth of the river, several strong men took turns wielding a bronze axe and cutting down a big hugging tree by the river.
On top of the tree, a few dexterous young men collected the fruit on it, and threw off the remaining branches and leaves on the tree.
The branches and leaves are refracted, and the big tree is easier to be fixed when it falls into the river, and it is also more difficult to be found by boaters, so it can be used as a qualified driftwood.
At one point, the tree cutter let out a loud shout to warn that the tree was about to fall, and the people on the tree hurriedly slid down.
There was also a young man who had climbed so high that he had only slipped a short section of the tree before it began to fall, and he hurriedly got up and ran down the fallen trunk.
Seeing that the tree had risen several meters at the moment of its fall, and that the landing had become dangerous, the young man hurriedly threw himself into the water with a vertical jump, and jumped into the water like a fish after the tree crashed into the water.
Between the rise and fall of the trees, the young man came out of the water and waved to the people on the shore, and the people on the shore laughed happily at the young man's great death.
"This is a brave boy."
"yes, it's water-based."
"If he can kill a sinister man and take a sharp weapon from them, I'll make him a little boss."
"Hehe, anyone who can do it can be a small boss" They did not care about the young man's recklessness and adventure, but praised his cleverness and bravery, and maintained a relatively optimistic attitude towards the situation in front of them.
The downed tree was pushed into the river with a slight push, and was held in place by the huge rattan.
Someone stood on the trunk of a large floating tree, threw an axe at the opposite bank, and asked the person on the other bank to cut down another large tree.
Filling the river with two big trees with branches would almost block the river, and it would be difficult for the boats of the Chinese people, who were regarded as annoying by the people of the Ten Directions, to move forward.
The young man shook off the water from his red hair, and without fear climbed up the high branches in the shaking of the trees, and still broke off the branches and leaves that had not yet fallen, and threw them into the river, and plucked the hard fruits and threw them on the shore.
At one point, after breaking off a branch and leaf, he suddenly saw a frightening sail shadow in the lake in the distance.
"Boat," he shouted, gesturing to the lake, and quickly climbed down the tree.
It was as if the light reflected from those ships was lethal.
The ingenuity and bravery of just now have become gone in this moment.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, and finally someone saw the shadow of the sail in the distance.
The panic on the surface of the water these days has made them all too familiar with the sail shadows in the lake.
These sail shadows can not only stop children from crying at night, but also wake many adults from their dreams.
Because of the existence of these sail shadows, God knows how many fishermen who went into the water in ten directions died in the Yellow Spring, and how many people starved to death in the branch near the water's edge The people of the Ten Directions, whether in the lake or at the mouth of the river, quickly retreated back into the estuary, waiting for the leaders to decide.
Some people are already holding the fish and shrimp they have caught, and they are habitually ready to run away.
"It's coming too fast."
Some of the leaders frowned.
They had also just arrived, and before they had cut down either tree, the enemy appeared.
More than a day faster than expected.
As if the enemy knew their every move.
It's terrifying.
Someone carefully climbed back into the tree and whispered the good news: "There are only four boats." ” The leaders of the "four" led the team in panic greatly decreased, and their fighting spirit began to burn.
The enemy's bow is strong and his weapons are sharp, and his tactics are diverse, and even half of them will make the people of the Ten Directions suffer a lot in normal times.
But the leader of the group knew that although their kind of ships were fast, there were not many people on each boat.
There are a few hundred people on my side, and if there are only four ships on the other side, the number of people should be only a fraction of my own, which is a godsend.
The leaders of "Hide and Prepare to Meet the Enemy" deliberated for a while, and soon decided to ambush the four ships as they entered the estuary.
There is only one tree in the river, which seems to be a bit insufficient.
However, it is getting dark, and when the other party enters the estuary, he may run headlong into it.
Even if they don't crash into it, they will definitely reduce the speed of the ship, and this is the opportunity of the Ten Directions.
The leader felt that he had a multiplicity advantage over the enemy, and that he would definitely win the battle.
Thinking that if he could win this battle, not only would he be able to greatly boost the confidence of the people of the Ten Directions, but he could also obtain a lot of those sharp weapons from Huaxia, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The people of the Ten Directions put away the food they had brought, restored the vegetation on the shore as much as possible, and then hid behind trees or bushes and waited for the enemy to approach.

Stone Beak stood under the mast and looked at the shore that was getting closer and closer, his face a little dark.
During the three-month recruit training, the Rong soldiers basically received swimming training, and it is said that because the training for them is particularly strict, their water skills should not be bad.
However, most of these people have never been on the boat.
Hundreds of sardines were crammed into a boat, and after a few hours of floating on the lake, most of them turned pale.
According to the advice of the previous General Staff, it was best for them to rush to the ferry ten kilometers away from the river overnight and then stop the boat to rest, and launch an attack or form a queue to attack the settlement of the Ten Directions early the next morning.
It was already dark at this time, and they did not encounter the 41 ship on the lake.
Although Shi Beak believed what Yixin said, and also divided the troops according to the tactical arrangement when he was in the lake, Yixin knew that at this time, many people were afraid that it was not enough to decide.
Coupled with the state of the honored soldiers at this time, in case of any special situation, they are afraid that they will not even have the ability to deal with it.
Stonebeak lifted the telescope on his chest to look at the mouth of the river, and couldn't see anything clearly in the twilight.
He bowed his head and muttered a little, and ordered: "Stop the boat at the mouth of the river, the scouts will go ashore and light the lights to patrol the surrounding area for five kilometers, and the others will prepare to camp and rest on the shore." ” A staff officer beside him said, "According to the plan, we'd better travel another thirty kilometers." ”:
