"Be careful!"

When Dong Fang raised his feet and wanted to move forward, he was stopped by Zhao Bo behind him.

Zhao Bo stabbed the wooden stick in his hand at Dong Fang's feet, and the grass that looked flat immediately recessed.

"Zhao Yuqi's mud doesn't like outsiders."

He whispered to Dong Fang and to everyone: "If you step on the wrong foot, you may be swallowed by muddy water, mud will fill your mouth and nose, and the gods will not be able to save you." ”

Dong Fang cautiously withdrew his feet, before entering the swamp, he thought that he was completely familiar with the lake that he watched every day, but when he went deeper into it, he realized that he actually knew nothing.

He came to Zhaoyuyi to recruit young and strong, training soldiers for more than a month, during which he went in and out of Shuize several times, familiar with the terrain, five days ago, more than ten miles away from the township was attacked by a group of thieves, Dong Fang did not hesitate at all, with his subordinates training a small effect of two or three hundred people to the rescue.

Perhaps it was because the raids of the bandits had not been effectively resisted for many years, and when Dong Fang and the others arrived, the thieves were still unhurriedly sweeping the grain and raping the women.

Seeing this tragic situation, how could Dong Fang, who was anxious for justice and righteousness, endure it? Immediately led everyone to kill, killed the group of thieves who were not prepared in the slightest, and finally killed dozens of people, captured more than ten people, and did not let any of them escape back!

This was the first victory of strong morale, and the local young men who had tasted the thrill of revenge were all happy, but more importantly, in order to avoid death, the leader of this group of thieves actually offered the location of the lair of the largest water thief in Zhaoyu Qili......

This information was soon reported to Chang'anjun, and after a long time of weaving a large net, it was finally about to be cast in Zhaoyuqi.

"Destroy its strength, take its lead, and dismantle its body!"

Zhao Kuo formulated a battle plan, in easy-to-understand words, that is, to capture the thief and capture the king, first destroy the largest one of the thieves, so that the rest of the thieves can surrender in fear, or flee away.

Chang'anjun handed over the command to Ma Fuzi, and with his order, a thousand county soldiers were all dispatched, and a thousand Ding Zhuang were arranged to ambush all along the coast.

According to the captured thief, the stronghold of the water thieves was deep in a swamp by the lake, and Dong Fang and Zhao Bo decided to let him lead the way, and the group slowly touched the reeds on the shore and had to walk more than ten miles.

The journey seems to be not far, but in fact, it is far more difficult than Dong Fang imagined.

Qi County is still a very backward area compared to Handan, and the surrounding area of the swamp is even more destitute compared to Qi County.

This land is a relatively low basin, because the water flow can not be discharged smoothly from the Fen River, it gathered into a large lake, the lake covered the sky and the sun in the past, until the legend of Dayu split the Lingshi Mountain, only a little land was exposed. The place between the land and the lake becomes a swamp.

"That's why it's called Zhaoyu Qi Zexu." Zhao Bo explained that Zesu is a watery area overgrown with weeds.

It was the height of summer, the sun was shining, the smell of moisture was permeating the trees, dead animals were rotting in the mud, and the roads were completely lost among the weeds and puddles. With tidal flats, complicated waterways, and tall reeds blocking the view, Dong Fang knew that if Zhao Bo and the captured water thieves led the way, they would have lost their way.

Even so, after entering the swamp, Zhao Bo used a few stones every few hundred steps to lay out the direction of his progress, and then inserted a slanted log so that the followers could follow the right path.

"The rivers around here have changed a lot over the years." When passing by a deserted village, Zhao Bo looked around and said, "I came here when I was young, and when I look at the mountain in front of me from this direction, there is no passage, but now there is an extra path......

The swamp is slowly drying up, although the process is slow, but the people who have lived in Zhaoyuqi for generations can still perceive it, they don't know that in a few hundred years, the swamp will be completely drained, and even the lake will become nine unconnected lakes, and after two thousand years, this large lake has disappeared without a trace......

Even so, the swamp is still difficult to navigate, and danger always appears unexpectedly underfoot.

Although they were ordered to "go into battle lightly", the group of county soldiers who followed behind were still wearing armor, spears, and halberds, and they exclaimed from time to time during the march, because there were always people who accidentally stepped into the dark mud, and they could not get out with their own strength, and when they saw that their whole legs were about to sink in, it was the people behind them who pulled them out.

"Hugh is going to call!" Dong Fang angrily warned these county soldiers, "What should I do if the thieves hear it?" ”

When the time comes, they will be greeted not only by black quagmire, but also by cold dark arrows.

By the second half of the trip, the shouts and shouts were almost gone, and the whole procession of four or five hundred people was silent.

As it was close to noon, they finally set foot on dry land, and each of them had mud on their knees covered in mud.

At that moment, the captured thief pointed ahead and said that the water thief's lair was over there......

Zhaobo also found something to cheer Hassan on the dry surface: a circle of blackened stones. In front, dense bare footprints were also found, the footprints were very fresh, and it was obvious that they had only recently passed.

Obviously, there is a lot of activity in this area.

Dong Fang took the striker to rest in place, and Zhao Bo led a few people to explore the way, and he came back after half an hour.

"The thief's nest is not far away, it's only a moment away......" Zhaobo has always been calm, but at this time he was a little uncontrollable excited, he remembered his younger brother who was killed by thieves, his younger brother and sister who were kidnapped by thieves, and Xixiang who was ruined by thieves......

"When the thieves make food, they will kill together!" Dong Fang gave an order, and there were three or four hundred people in the thief's nest, which was on par with them, but there were reinforcements behind him, and there was an ambush on the shore.

Their task was to burn the thieves' ships as soon as possible, so that they could not escape, and then drive them to the land to the north, where most of the soldiers were waiting for the rabbits.

The young men of Saigo all sat down, silently checking their weapons, they had to make sure they were sharp enough to stab the enemy in a while!

The sun was setting in the west, and as the time approached evening, thick smoke rose from the location of the thieves' nest in front of us......

Dong Fang was overjoyed, and was about to beckon everyone to leave, but Zhao Bo hurriedly pulled him down!

In front of the thief's nest, a few thieves in tattered clothes were slowly walking towards this side, and what made people even more angry was that they were also pushing two crying peasant women, who were not clothed, and when they arrived nearby, they were pushed down in the reeds, and those thieves continued to use foul language while committing murder, most of them were insulting their husbands and families, saying that they were bad seeds and soft eggs......

Dong Fang was furious, and when he turned around, he found that Zhao Bo and Xixiang Qingzhuang behind him were all red-eyed, and they more or less had sisters in their families who were kidnapped by thieves! Those thieves are scolding, they are the ones who are scolding!

Dozens of paces ahead, the women's cries grew louder and louder, and the thieves laughed proudly and arrogantly, and only when they inflicted cruelty on other people's wives and daughters, these thieves, who were originally ordinary people, would forget the unhappiness that happened to them......

According to the plan, all that was needed at this time was silence, and everyone would stop making noise, and wait until the group of thieves was done, and then they would go out together when they returned to their lair and started eating.

But Dong Fang couldn't bear it, and the local young man behind him couldn't bear it anymore.

The wind blew through the reeds and made a rustling sound, Dong Fang thought of the Li Lu that was ravaged by thieves, the daughter of the pavilion father who was like a flower, remembered her light bones, and remembered the flowers on her grave.

Faced with the brutality that happened in front of him, Dong Fang slowly drew his sword.

He no longer concealed it, stood up, looked at his subordinates who were filled with righteous indignation, and needed to bite the reed rod in his mouth to hold back the pain, and raised his sword high.

"Kill the thief ......" out of habit along the way, his first voice was so small that it was quickly drowned out by the sound of the wind blowing the reeds.

"Kill the thief." By the second time, he had already regained his rightful volume for everyone to hear, then turned around, sword in both hands, and began to step forward.

"Kill the thief!" This third sound, Dong Fang screamed with all his strength while running, and roared together, as well as hundreds of young people behind him! They all got up and ran!

The thieves who were committing violence raised their heads in horror, and the last scene they heard and saw in their humble and short lives was the countless partridges and wild ducks flying in the reeds, and the sound of killing thieves echoed in Zhaoyu Qi, and the group of militiamen with vengeful anger were stepping on the mud and flowing through the water, rushing towards them!

Half a moment later, Zhao Kuo, who was ambushed a few miles to the north, saw a thick black flame burning at the location of the thief's nest......
