Laoshan Island is located in the center of Jiaohu Lake, with a radius of ten miles and shaped like a green bun. The island has three mountains and nine peaks, a very steep terrain and lush forests. It is the only island in the middle of the eight hundred-mile Jiaohu Lake.
It is said that in ancient times, the Chaozhou land subsided and turned into Jiao Lake. An old woman named Jiao Lao made this island in order to save her neighbors. The shape of the island is like the shape of a bun, because that is where Lao Jiao's hair bun is exposed. The shape of the water surface.
Of course, this is just an ancient legend. But as a lakeside island in Jiao Lake, its location is obviously very dangerous. Since ancient times, Juchao County and Hefei County have been battlegrounds for military strategists. In addition to the interchange thoroughfares In addition to the favorable geographical location in the north and south, the 800-mile Jiao Lake is the best place for naval training.
Navy warships can practice and station in Jiao Lake. When necessary, they can go straight from the Ruxu River to the Yangtze River without any obstruction. The water surface of Jiao Lake is open and the water depth is suitable, which is very suitable for naval drills. The surrounding area of Laoshan Island is a natural deep-water ship port. , the terrain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. For a long time, it has been used as a port base for the navy to be stationed. Therefore, many houses and defense facilities were built on the island.
However, since the three-point return to Jin, the world has been peaceful for a while. There has been no war in Jiaohu Lake in the hinterland of Jin Dynasty for a long time, and there are few navy troops stationed for training. Only fishermen live on Laoshan Island. Because of the beautiful scenery , it has become a tourist attraction in Juchao County.
Until Feng Heizi and his gang gathered here, it became a place where the Lake Bandits were entrenched. The steep terrain and good facilities were used by the Lake Bandits and became their base to fight against the imperial troops.
Feng Heizi is in his forties this year. He is the son of a fisherman from a fishing village near Jiaohu Lake. His character can be described as cunning, lazy and cunning. He has been lazy since he was a child. He is a troublemaker and is disliked by others. As an adult, he is a troublemaker. He had to follow his father to fish for a living, but he often stole and robbed other fishermen. He was domineering and brutal and became the tyrant of the village.
That year, he was selling fish in the county seat, stuffing the fish's stomachs with mud, water and grass, and using dead fish as freshly caught fish. As a result, restaurants and teahouses in Juchao County collectively boycotted him, so he couldn't sell any fish. Eventually it turned into killing people in the street and gathering into bandits.
In the past few years, Feng Heizi and others have lived a life like a fairy. They have no worries about food, drink, and women, and they are running rampant in the county. The imperial soldiers and horses came to encircle and suppress them, and the informants he placed reported them in advance, and they were defeated.
Feng Heizi himself once said proudly that he was the emperor of Juchao County. Feng Heizi had the final say over this territory, and the imperial court was not a concern at all.
But who would have thought that a group of beggar soldiers from the north would occupy the county seat and invade his territory. This was obviously intolerable.
After Wang Guangzu and others arrived, Feng Heizi wanted to invade the county town and eradicate all these people more than once. However, the opponent also had a lot of people, with a team of more than a hundred people. If he attacked by force, he might not be able to end well.
Feng Heizi had no choice but to wait for the opportunity, hoping that the other party would take the initiative to attack regardless of life and death. In this way, he could easily defeat them. However, the other party had no such idea at all.
An attack not long ago was an attempt by Feng Heizi to take the initiative. Feng Heizi did not intend to fight head-on. He is a wise man. He did not want to lose his few manpower in a fight with these beggars. So he only sent the leader of the second village, Water Monkey, to bring some soldiers and horses to harass and attack them. Kill some of them and force them to retreat. Who would have expected that he would actually suffer a loss in that battle. Including the old man More than ten people, including six elders and seven others, died in the city.
Feng Heizi was angry. This was intolerable. Even if the local emperor of Juchao County could not settle this matter, how could he be the local emperor? However, Feng Heizi still maintained a cautious attitude. He hoped to find a good opportunity.
After all, he had eyes and ears in the city, so he knew every move of the other party.
Now, the opportunity has come. Yesterday, we received a tip from Tuzi Sun that these beggar soldiers started fighting on their own, resulting in heavy casualties. There were only fifty or sixty men left in the city. This was simply the best time to attack.
Moreover, a group of women came down from the north in the city, and they were all fresh goods. We couldn't let go of these women.
After summoning the leader of the second village and the leader of the third village to report the situation, both the second and third village leaders felt that this was a good opportunity to dispatch and they must not miss it. If they did not dispatch at this moment, it would be even more troublesome for the other side to recruit more people to supplement their strength.
.Refugees from the north are coming down in a steady stream, and they have plenty of manpower.
So Feng Heizi made a decision. Since he decided to go out, he must attack with all his strength this time without leaving any room. He passed the order to Sun Tuzi and asked him to open the west gate at midnight to respond. At the same time, he ordered that in addition to leaving more than ten subordinates behind,
In addition to the housekeepers on the island, everyone else was dispatched, including himself.
At the first watch on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, more than ten fishing boats gathered at the northern pier of the island. Feng Heizi put on the poisonous dragon leather armor that he cherished very much. It was the belly of a small poisonous dragon that traveled upstream from the Yangtze River to Jiao Lake.
Leather armor sewn from the most flexible leather.
It was a gift given to Feng Heizi on his 40th birthday by the leader of the Second Village, Water Monkey, and his brothers. Water Monkey and his men spent several months searching and capturing poisonous dragons in the reeds at the mouth of the Ruxu River. A total of two were captured.
It took more than a dozen poisonous dragons to get the best leather for their bellies. Several of his men were bitten by the ferocious poisonous dragons.
This poisonous dragon leather armor is extremely tough and invulnerable to swords. Feng Heizi would not wear it easily unless there is a big move.
The majestic Feng Heizi, wearing poisonous dragon leather armor and a steel sword hanging around his waist, led more than 120 lake bandits under his command to board the ship. After giving the order, more than ten ships rowed out of the dock, raised their sails, and
Leveraging the force of the cold westerly wind, it came quickly towards Juchao County.
After about an hour of sailing, the ship arrived at the Liulin Embankment on the southwest side of Juchao County. Everyone climbed up the embankment from the reed swamp and formed a team to prepare.
In order to make sure that the news of the attack was successfully conveyed to Sun Tuzi and others, Feng Heizi specially ordered people to go to the old willow tree in Liulin to check. The feedback he received soon was that the skin bag had been taken away and the news had been successfully conveyed last night.
Feng Heizi felt relieved. This was an extremely important step. It was necessary to make sure that Sun Tuzi and others got the news so that they could successfully enter the county town and catch the enemy by surprise. Otherwise, their trip would be in vain.
Everyone walked in the snow and quickly approached the west gate of the county. Halfway through the second watch, more than a hundred lake bandits were already lurking in the snow outside the west gate. At this moment, they only had to wait for Sun Tuzi and others to succeed and open the suspension bridge city.
You can enter Juchao County without anyone noticing.
In the cold wind, Feng Heizi squinted his eyes and looked up from the hidden ravine to the top of the city. It was dark on the top of the city wall and there was no movement. In fact, the entire Juchao County was dark and silent. This was a good idea.
This phenomenon shows that no one in Juchao County knows what is going to happen tonight.
While looking at the dark city gates and walls in front of him and waiting for the signal, Feng Heizi's mind suddenly recalled the situation five years ago when he led his men into the county seat and attacked the county government office.
That night, the sky was so dark and the night was so quiet. It was just that the weather was not so cold. Feng Heizi remembered that that night, dozens of them entered the city from the west gate with the help of Neiying and touched the
County government.
After taking a ladder and entering the county government office, the gang of county government officials were still sleeping. They were rushed into the house by their subordinates and had a feast of chopping melons and vegetables. More than a dozen government officials were hacked to death in an instant, and they were covered in blood.
All over the place.
Feng Heizi still remembered that when he led people into the back office, the Huang County Magistrate seemed to have known about the changes outside. He did not escape, but actually stopped in the corridor with a sword and yelled at him, demanding that he immediately
Put down the butcher's knife and surrender.
That scene was a bit funny. A weak guy stood there holding a sword, facing the dozen brothers he brought with him, and he actually dared to scold himself.
I rushed forward and removed his sword-holding arm with a single blow. I forced him to ask him about the whereabouts of the magistrate's seal and asked him to hand over the seal. In the end, this guy actually endured the pain and scolded me. I
He chopped off his head with another knife, and led his men to attack the back office, killing everyone.
The killing was clean and tidy that night. From that day on, Juchao County was his own. No county magistrate dared to take office anymore, and the local people no longer dared to say no to him. He was in
That night he ascended the throne as the local emperor of Juchao County. It was a pity that he could not find the county magistrate's seal. It was not that he had to ask for something, but he had not seen it before and wanted to play with it.
The night attack on the county government office was naturally the most talked about battle among the brothers in the water village, and it was also the most proud battle for everyone. It was also Feng Heizi's proud work. But for some reason, every time he thought about it afterwards
During the battle, Feng Heizi could still remember the appearance of Magistrate Huang at that time.
Although Feng Heizi refused to admit it, he actually admired the Huang County Magistrate in his heart. In that situation, he actually stood in front of him with a sword in hand and scolded him. It can be seen that he was a bit brave.
. Ask yourself, if you were him, I would probably have knelt down and begged for mercy.
Feng Heizi looked at the dark city and thought to himself: I heard that there are officials sent by the imperial court who are not afraid of death again in the county government office. After finishing the gang of beggar soldiers tonight, I have to go to the county government office. Dare you come to live here?
Those who serve as officials in Chao County must die.
I just don’t know how the current person in the county government compares with the Huang County Magistrate back then? Could he be a weakling who would kneel down when he saw me? In that case, it would be too boring. I still like Huang County Magistrate like that
It's tougher and more interesting to kill.
Feng Heizi's mind was racing with thoughts, thinking about some messy things. He didn't know how long it had been. Suddenly, Water Monkey, the leader of the second village next to him, said in a deep voice: "Master of the big village, the torch at the top of the city is lit. The Fourth Brother
They succeeded."
Feng Heizi hurriedly looked up, and sure enough, a torch on the top of the city was swinging back and forth, which was the signal that Ximen had succeeded.
Feng Heizi was overjoyed. He reached out and pulled out the ring-headed steel knife, and shouted in a deep voice: "My sons, enter the city!"
