Jinghu South Road.

"The bandit leader is ahead, brothers, hurry up and chase him. Don't call the bandit leader away!"

The sun had begun to set westward, and the sky gradually darkened. On a small road near the river, there were thirty or fifty patrol officers in the prefectures and counties chasing one person from behind.

The man running in front was wearing the clothes of the people, but he had a fierce face. He was also big and round, and was carrying a blood-stained sword in his hand, and was hiking towards the river.

This man was very quick and fast. Although he pursued many soldiers and was not slow to run, he couldn't catch up with him for a while.

Although it was early winter at this time, Jinghu would not freeze. The person who was running towards the river was obviously escaping by the river. He saw that he was at the riverside and was not panicked at all. Instead, he showed joy and his feet were getting faster.

"Yang Laoyao, you a bad-hearted beast, you don't even talk about the old feelings, so you can pickle birds. When grandpa escapes today, it's up to you to settle the future!"

This person's tone is not ordinary.

"No! This thief is familiar with water! He must have escaped by borrowing water!" Someone saw this and obviously knew the inside story and shouted quickly.

But along the coast of Dongting Lake, don’t say it is a patrolman in the prefectures and counties. Even the garrison troops are in charge of several horses. Everyone walks on their legs and chases people on foot. How can they cross the distance?

Even the inspector Yang, who was in charge, looked very angry.

"God bless you! Look at me beside this thief!"

Seeing that it was really hard to catch up, the inspector, who led the commander stopped and reached out to grab the bow on his waist, his face full of ignorance.

He is a good player in water fighting, but it is too ordinary when it comes to archery.

If the man in front of him hadn't been able to tell his archery skills, the inspector would never show off his archery skills.

This is definitely favored by God.

Everyone saw the patrol inspectors took the arrow behind their backs, took another arrow, stood firm with both feet, pulled the bow and arrow, and then released it suddenly.

"Swish-Puff!"

A scream of "Ah!" came immediately.

The arrow shot very accurately. Although it was far away, it hit the back of the bandit leader in front. The other party even had time to scream and fell down with a plop.

"I shot! I shot! That thief fell!" Someone immediately screamed excitedly, and more people accelerated their pace and caught up.

Only the inspector surnamed Yang looked a little dazed, and he didn't know how to tell the complicated feelings in his heart for a moment.

This is his old brother who was a sworn brother.

"Quick! Go and see if the thief is still angry!"

That's what he said, but the inspector really didn't know that he should hope that person would die or live.

This is one of the evil bandits in Jingnan. It’s okay if you die directly, but if you live, you will be worse than death.

But at that time, even if this person was not as good as death in prison, he would not die at his own hands...

The soldier hurried over and after checking, the man on the ground did not die. He even spat bloody spit at him when he was driven to the inspection.

"Good Yang Tai, he destroyed the thief in one fell swoop and captured the thief's head alive. As expected, I'm not disappointed."

In Tanzhou City, although Liu Wei, who was 65 years old, had to be completely white, he was in great spirits. He patted Yang Tai's thick shoulder with his big hands, and his face was full of praise.

He has been busy in the north and south roads of Jinghu for three years, but looking at Lao Liu's health, he must have to continue to be busy.

In three years, Liu Wei started from Xiangyang, gathered people to open up land and cultivated fields and opened roads. Now he has gone down the Xiangjiang River to Tanzhou. In a few years, he seems to have no outstanding achievements, but from Jiangbei to Jiangnan, the tens of millions of arable land added to the court's fields are his greatest contribution!

The patrol officer is a military force directly under Liu Fu. The number of people is small, with only one thousand people in the establishment, and the military equipment is not very good, which is much worse than the garrison army. But these people were pulled by Liu Fu. Most of the officers inside were veterans around Liu Fu, and some were young and strong in the places where they were applied to the place. They were all young and strong in the places where they were applied to Liu Fu. It can be said that they were instructed by Liu Fu. The number of people often exceeded the establishment. It was obvious that it was a system of one thousand people, but in fact there were two or three thousand people. In other words, those who were applied to the place where they were applied to be young and strong in Jinghu were necessary for the cultivation of farmland.

Yang Tai belongs to the latter!

This person was originally named Yang Tai. He lived in Longyang for generations. Because he was a child at home, the villagers called him Yang Yao. He was a child since childhood, but because his family was poor, he could not continue. After only two years of primary school, he followed his father to take a boat on Dongting Lake.

In his early years, he got involved with Zhong Xiang and his group. As a result, when Wang Yuan led his troops to attack Jinghu, Zhong Xiang simply took over the olive branch that Zhao Gou had extended. However, Yang Yao did not become an official, but returned to his hometown in Longyang after the war.

Because he has no good feelings for the Zhao family.

When he was following his father to make a living on the water, he heard merchants talking about the wanton scenery of Song Jiang, Shandong, where the officials and soldiers dared to stay in the water for a while. For the time being, no one dared to approach. For the tragic fate of the brothers who were recruited later, few of them had good ends.

This is the root that has been taken since childhood and is not easy to reverse.

However, Yang Yao, who returned from the army, was no longer the poor man who had no place to stand in the past. This man's head was always determined by his butt.

Last year, after Liu Wei brought people into the Dongting Lake area, he went up with the water bandits and water bandits in Dongting Lake.

There is no way. Liu Wei and others are refugees who reclaim land or poor people who migrate to the surrounding areas. They are not only weak in courage, but also poor in physical fitness, but also limited in the number of patrolmen.

Although there are 1,000 people, the number is very large. But think about the territory under Liu Wei's jurisdiction. Even the new fields in Jiangbei have been under the jurisdiction of the local government, but only the land in Jiangnan, that is, the counties around Dongting Lake to Tanzhou, all the wastelands and fields are handled by Liu Wei. If you think about the territory, a thousand people are simply sprinkled with pepper.

As for why there are still water bandits in Dongting Lake? Haha, this thing has never stopped for more than a thousand years, even in the so-called prosperous times.

The world is so big, there are always some people who are forced to fall into the enemy.

Moreover, the new refugees and immigrants became uneasy after being disturbed, which led to the surrounding prefectures and prefectures.

The local young and strong man represented by Yang Tai joined Liu Wei's subordinates.

The reason for the surface is that Liu Wei has a good reputation and is a great master who is dedicated to serving the people. By the way, Liu Wei has had a very high reputation in recent years, especially in Jinghu. In secret, it is because water thieves are rampant and damaged by their own interests, although it is not enough to be told by outsiders.

"You really have you!" In the crowd, a man in a patrol robe praised Yang Tai. This was Yang Qin, a brother of Yang Tai.

The two of them were together with Zhong Xiang and joined the Manichi religion together, but now they are both rich landlords and have joined Liu Wei as a inspector.

Liu Zihui looked at the captured thief leader and laughed: "This Yang Sanlang, who was only fifty steps away from the training camp, could not have three or five arrows from ten arrows. This arrow shot just right!"

It hit Li Herong's vital point, but it didn't take his life. It was really just right!

Yang Tai's face was not full of excitement.

What's there to be happy about? Is the official reward? The Yang family is not short of money and land, and he himself has no intention of actually entering the officialdom.

So, Yang Tai really has nothing to be happy about.
