In the middle of summer, a few waterfowl occasionally skim the water, bringing a few ripples, the reeds that cover the sky and the sun cover the entire shore, and a small boat glides lightly on the surface of the lake and burrows into the reeds.

A few whistles sounded, a whistle arrow sounded, and several sturdy figures emerged from the water.

"Second brother, is there any movement?" The sturdy man with a tanned tan swam flexibly in the water, and the smile on his handsome face had a very special charm.

"Yan Jiu is back. The man on the dinghy and the swarthy and sturdy man had a bit of a look, they looked like two brothers, but they were much older, looking at their younger brother, they also showed a kind smile on their faces: "Goro, don't be naughty, go back as soon as possible, be careful of your father's family law." ”

"Hey, who is chewing his tongue in front of the second brother, didn't I just go to Bianliang?" The swarthy and sturdy young man jumped up, and stood at the bow of the boat, his wet body looked particularly fit in the sun, but he held two fish in his hands, jumping and struggling.

"Hmph, you still said, can you go to Bianliang when you are there? Don't look at what time it is!" The older man said angrily: "During this time, the wind is very tight everywhere, and the beams are densely ridden, if you are caught, you have to take off a layer of skin!"

"Second brother, don't bluff me, Daliang Detective is indeed very active during this time, but it is not aimed at us, it should be Zhu Mao who wants to target us, but Zhu Mao has slipped away to Jeju, I heard that now Yanyun's side has been taken over by the Huaiyou Army from the south, and I don't know where the small role came out, and he actually ascended to the sky in one step. ”

Someone in the dinghy had already taken the shirt for him, and the swarthy and sturdy young man put it on very casually.

"I heard that the people of Shatuo in Hedong in the north have started to do it again, and the movement is quite big, and the city is a little nervous, but it has not closed the city, and when I was eating and drinking in Bianliang City, I also met some strong people. ”

"Maybe, Daliang has made a big move, and a large number of troops have been mobilized from the south to the north, so it should be that the situation in the north is tight. ”

A few spot-billed ducks and mallards came out of the reeds, saw the dinghy in the water and the figures on the water, and went into the water again in a panic, trying to hide.

"It doesn't have much to do with us, how many big battles have Da Jin and Da Liang fought over the years, isn't it just like that?" the swarthy and sturdy young man shook his head disappreciatively, "At least I don't feel anything in Bianjing City, I still sing and dance, and those gentlemen who step on the white capital are the same as gambling money and listening to dramas, and having a lot of fun." ”

"Not necessarily. The older man shook his head, seeming to be a little hesitant, "Forget it, it's not clear for a while now, Yan Jiu also has some circumstances when he comes back, and he won't know until he meets his father." ”

"Oh, what's the relationship with Songzhou? Do you want to let the Tianxing Left Army deal with us?" The swarthy and sturdy young man couldn't help but laugh, "Didn't Pang Yuan just come back from Xuzhou?

Caozhou and Songzhou are both under the jurisdiction of the Tianxing Left Army, although Pang Yuan is usually stationed in Songzhou, but Caozhou has not dared to relax, especially after the Juye Ze water bandits are becoming more and more rampant, he has spent significantly more time in Caozhou, but limited to the geographical situation of Caozhou, Pang Yuan is also powerless.

Junoze is also known as Onozawa, more than 300 miles from north to south, more than 100 miles from east to west, lying in the central and southern part of Yunzhou, dividing Yunzhou into two halves, the wheel area accounts for one-fifth of Yunzhou, Yuncheng, Shouzhang, Xuchang and Sucheng in the four counties of land in the north, Juyeze accounts for one, and Juye County in the south accounts for one.

In this era, the fame of Juyeze is not small, and the area is only inferior to Dongting Lake, Peng Lize, Taihu Lake, and Chaohu Lake, but if you talk about the influence of water bandits, the strength of Juyeze water bandits has expanded very rapidly in recent years, and has exceeded the influence of Chaohu Lake and Taihu Lake water bandits, and Dongting Lake and Pengli Lake water bandits are on top of each other, and at the same time, lake bandits and Jiang Kou, river bandits, and East China pirates have also become the four major disasters on the water.

The largest Xuze in Caozhou - Heze and Juyeze have a waterway - Baigou extension section communicates, and the lotus water originating in Heze goes east through Jinxiang to the east, and meets Huanshui from the north in the square and territory, and Huanshui originates in the east of Juyeze, so this forms an irregular oblique triangle.

The east is Huanshui, the northwest is the extension of Juyeze and Baigou and Heze, and the south is Heshui, so to speak, the Junozawa (Onozawa) water bandits are through Junoze - Baigou - Heze - Heshui - Huanshui - Junoze, this area is firmly encircled.

It can be said that this area is basically the world of the Juyeze water bandits, and at the same time, the Juyeze water bandits are also connected with Juyeze through the Baigou and its extension between Caozhou and Bianjing, and the north is connected with Jeju, Qizhou, Zizhou, and Qingzhou through Jishui, and the east is connected with Yizhou through Wenshui, and its radiation and influence reach several states.

It's not that the Giant Water Bandits can do whatever they want in these states and counties, but through the control and influence of these convenient waterways, the power of the Giant Water Bandits has indeed expanded to a rather astonishing extent.

Regarding his younger brother's ridicule, the older man frowned slightly.

This younger brother has been wild and uninhibited since he was a child, although he is extremely talented in martial arts, and his nature is extremely intelligent, but he has always lacked a little qualitative, and his father has always been not very at ease with him, but fortunately, the younger brother can be regarded as knowing the importance of proportion, and there has not been any big mess.

No one can touch the idea of the prospective father, in the past two years, there have been more and more brothers in the lake, like the neighboring counties of Yuncheng and Juye, which have long been controlled in their hands, and the county commanders in the county and the people in the yamen are nominally sent by Zhu Mao, but in fact, if you want to survive here, you can only listen to the arrangements in the lake.

Now even Lei Ze has fallen into his own hands, and for a time even Shouzhang, Suchang, Sucheng and Pinglu were under the control of Huli.

However, the situation has changed recently, the entry of the Huaiyou Army into Xuzhou has greatly changed the situation in this area, and the Huaiyou Army even dispatched a large army to occupy Sucheng and Pinglu, and the situation in Xuchang and Shouzhang has become increasingly tense.

It's not clear what Daddy means now, but he thinks that he can't continue like this, otherwise once Shou Zhang and Xu Chang fall into Huai's right hand station, the situation that has been managed with great difficulty will be beaten back to its original shape.

He could feel that his father was a little jealous of Huaiyou's side, and he seemed unwilling to provoke the other party, but now that the other party had put his hand into Yunzhou, it was necessary to take countermeasures, otherwise the brothers in the lake would be unconvinced.

This time Yan Jiu came back, probably there was some situation to report to his father, and he estimated that it was probably not only Songzhou and Caozhou, but also Huaiyou, who was newly in Xuzhou.

"Okay, Gorou, let's go, I'm going to report to my father first, Yan Jiu sent a letter back, he has already arrived in Juye County. The older man waved his hand.

The dinghy accelerated, burrowed into the reeds, and nimbly navigated through the reeds.

Ordinary people can't see what is in the dense reeds, but it is not a problem at all for the water heroes who were born and grew up in Si all year round.

Even if they close their eyes, they can go in and out of this reed, no matter who wants to come and conquer Junozawa, it is all a dream, and this is their world.

The older man ignored the younger brother who was still looking forward to it, and sat on the bow of the boat by himself, pondering the matter.

Daddy's mind is getting more and more elusive.

It stands to reason that the situation in the lake is very good now, Yuncheng in the northwest, Juye in the south, and Liangshan in the north are all controlled in the hands of the lake, and Lei Ze has also been captured by the children, and there has been no reaction from the Liang side so far, which may also be related to the recent invasion of the Shatuo people in Hedong in the north of the Liang Dynasty, but even if it is withdrawn from Lei Ze?

As long as Juye and Yuncheng are controlled, as well as Liangshan, whoever comes to be the home of Yunzhou must listen to the orders of the Chao family.

But it seems that Dad has been getting more and more preoccupied recently, which makes him a little puzzled.

"Second brother, I heard that the Huaiyou Army sent troops to occupy Pinglu and Sucheng, but do you want the sons and daughters to play tricks?" Seeing that his brother ignored him, the swarthy and sturdy young man ran over again, his shirt was half open, and a pair of well-proportioned and toned arms and thighs shone in the sun.

"You dare!" the older young man glared at his younger brother, "Now the situation is unknown, my father has already made a clear order, except for scouts, no one is allowed to go to Yanzhou, if you violate the order, be careful of your skin!"

"Okay, good, good, you can't go to Yanzhou, then you can always go to Yunzhou, then Jiang Erlang ignored our Dayo Rebels and dared to occupy Sucheng, this is deliberately to provoke our Daye Rebels, if he doesn't teach him a lesson, he really thinks that Yunzhou is also his surname Jiang. The swarthy young man said angrily.

"Don't act rashly. The older man's face changed, and he said sharply: "Jiang is the envoy of Wuning Jiedu appointed by the imperial court, although Yanyun does not belong to his jurisdiction, but now that Zhu Mao is going north, Yanyun is actually a borderless land, we can't control him if he wants to occupy Yanzhou, Yunzhou here, as long as he doesn't act out of line, my father has already said that he will go." ”

"Let him go, then what if he goes one step further to occupy Xuchang and Shouzhang?"

"Hmph, Daddy has his own plans. He was choked by his younger brother's words for a while, but the older man still said in a deep voice: "Gorou, the current situation is chaotic, Dad eats more salt than you eat, can't you think about this? ”
