Chapter 1016: The Second Natural Defense Line That Must Be Conquered_1

The Lin Clan's young men were equally excited, gathering around the sand table, waiting for further instructions.

"The nearest city to Yan City is Zhuo County, which is only a hundred miles away. It takes only two days to get there by forced march."

Second Uncle Lin looked at the sand table, his sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed: "However, between the two cities lies the Black Sand River. The river is rapid and about a thousand meters wide. Without warships, it is difficult for the army to cross the river."

"The Black Sand River is known as a natural barrier."

Fifth Uncle Lin added in time: "Lying between Yan City and Zhuo County, it is the second natural line of defense that must be conquered in the campaign against Beiqi."

"About a kilometer wide? How can we cross the river without warships?"

"We can requisition the boats of the fishermen living along the river to transport the army."
