Chu Yi nodded slightly. It was obviously impossible for Zheng Wu and Mao Fang to lie. From this point, we could see the vastness of Taihu Lake.
Moreover, Murong Fu's maid Abi once said that from Tingxiangxiang Pavilion to Yanziwu, you need to walk on the 49th Water Road, and then turn south to get there in half a day.
Therefore, there is no problem as Zheng Wu said that it would take most of a day to get to Yanziwu.
Taihu Lake is such a big lake. Naturally, it is impossible for Chu Yi and his group of ships to be the only ones on the water. It can be said that from the time the ship set off until now, no less than dozens of large and small ships have passed by within sight. It can be seen that above Taihu Lake
, boats came and went, it was very lively.
Almost half an hour passed, and people like Yang Zhi became a little impatient. Suddenly, they heard a long roar coming from the misty water vapor in front of them, which immediately shocked Yang Zhi and others' spirits.
This roaring sound is very extraordinary, but by listening to the roaring sound, you can tell that the person who made the roaring is not inferior to the great master in cultivation.
"Hey, there is such a strong person on Taihu Lake!"
Yang Zhi's eyes flashed brightly, and his face looked excited.
On the contrary, Zheng Wu and Mao Fang were stunned for a moment when they heard the roaring sound, and then their expressions changed slightly. It was obvious that they were no strangers to the roaring sound.
Noticing the change in the expressions of the two of them, Chu Yi said with a hint of curiosity: "Looking at Zheng Tiha's expression, could it be that he knows who made the roar?"
Zheng Tiha smiled bitterly and said: "Returning to the Admiral, I know that this person is indeed known to me. It is not just me that knows this person. I am afraid that there are very few people in the vast Jiangnan area above Taihu Lake who do not know this person."
"Oh, there are such people in Jiangnan, but Chu has never heard of them!"
Mao Fang couldn't help but say with a bit of awe in his eyes: "This is Fang La, the leader of Manichaeism. In recent years, it can be said that he has become famous in the south of the Yangtze River. Everyone knows about it."
Chu Yi raised his eyebrows, obviously not expecting that the other party was Fang La.
Chu Yi is obviously not unfamiliar with Fang La. This world is integrated with the Water Margin world. Since there are many Liangshan generals, Fang La, the leader of the four bandits, is definitely indispensable.
As a famous bandit who caused great disturbances in the south of the Yangtze River, Fang La's reputation was much greater than that of Song Jiang's group.
If we really want to talk about it, of the so-called four bandits, only Fang La is worthy of his name. As for Song Jiang, Wang Qing and others, they are all exaggerated.
Don't you see that Fang La raised troops in the south of the Yangtze River, occupied several prefectures, supported hundreds of thousands of troops, and even claimed to have established a country.
Of course, in this world, the people in Liangshan obviously have great luck, but even so, Fang La and his Manichaeism are definitely not simple.
It's just that Chu Yi didn't expect to hear the news about Fang La on Taihu Lake. The last time he was in the capital, he had a glimpse of Fang La, but there was no interaction at all at that time.
Chu Yi looked surprised and said: "Oh, is there anything extraordinary about this Fang La? It is actually famous in the south of the Yangtze River."
Zheng Tiha took a deep breath and said: "Fang La is the leader of Manichaeism. He has Shi Bao, Li Tianrun, Pang Wanchun and other powerful men under his command. His followers are hundreds of thousands. It can be said that with one stamp of his feet, the entire
Jiangnan will be shaken by it."
As a family of generals, Yang Zhi obviously couldn't just practice martial arts. Under Yang Wenguang's teaching, Yang Zhi's vision was naturally good. At this moment, hearing what Zheng Tiha said, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and said: "This...
How is this possible? According to what you said, Fang La and the Manichaeans are basically a group of rebels."
No wonder Yang Zhi said this. A single Manichaean sect has gathered hundreds of thousands of people. Even if it is not a rebel, it is still a rebel. The imperial court will not rest assured about a sect that can inspire hundreds of thousands of people at any time.
Zheng Tiha's expression changed when he heard this and said: "Be careful of trouble coming from your mouth. Leader Fang is a Holy Duke of Manichaeism. He saves lives and heals the wounded, gives alms to the people, and has close contacts with many noble people. How can he be a rebel?"
Seeing the reactions of Zheng Tiha and Mao Fang, Yang Zhi could not help but curl his lips. I am afraid that even Zheng Tiha and the others knew that there was something wrong with Manichaeism, but they were unwilling to think about it deeply.
Once the Manichaeans rebelled, the first people who would be unlucky would be those who were officials in Jiangnan. The imperial court would not spare them.
Seeing that Yang Zhi wanted to say something else, Chu Yi coughed lightly and said: "Jiangnan has been at peace for a long time. Under the governance of all the gentlemen, it can be said to be a prosperous place. How can there be any rebels?"
Zheng Tiha nodded repeatedly and said: "What the Admiral said is that there is absolutely no possibility of any rebels in the south of the Yangtze River."
As the ship gradually moved forward, several ships were vaguely colliding through the thin mist, and the sounds of killing could even be heard clearly.
Yang Zhi glanced ahead and couldn't help but said: "Zheng Tiha, what's going on? Fang La has such a great reputation in Jiangnan, and there are still people looking for trouble for him?"
Not to mention Yang Zhi, even Zheng Tiha and Mao Fang had a look of astonishment on their faces. Obviously they did not expect that anyone would dare to deal with Fang La in this Jiangnan area. That was really audacious.
"Hey, look, the flag hanging on the ship..."
"Murong..."
Yang Zhi opened his eyes wide and said with a look of disbelief on his face: "This... this can't be the people of the Murong family fighting with the people of Fang La!"
They were heading towards Murong's house, but found that their target could only fight with other people at the moment. This made Yang Zhi and others look shocked.
Chu Yi was also stunned. After he came to his senses, he slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Interesting, really interesting. It seems that the Murong family is more interesting than I thought."
In fact, if you think about it, you can roughly guess why such a conflict broke out between the Murong family and Fang La.
Whether it's Fang La or the Murong family, they both want to rebel, and they both live in the same place in the south of the Yangtze River.
If you want to rebel, you must have enough money, food, and troops. Therefore, both Fang La and the Murong family regard the land south of the Yangtze River as their base. Once they raise an army in the future, it will be their support for rebellion.
One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, so it is not surprising that there is a conflict between the Murong family and Fang La. It would be strange if the two lived in peace.
If we are located in the north and the south and have a common enemy, then it is normal to form alliances with each other. The key point is that if they are in the same place, there is no hope of peaceful coexistence.
Zheng Tiha frowned and looked from afar: "There are four great generals in the Murong family, Deng Baichuan of Qingyun Village, Duke Zhiqian of Chixia Village, Jinfeng Village is different, Xuanshuang Village is in trouble, and each of the four major villages has its own generals.
There are hundreds of elite young men gathered together. Once the four villages attack together, one or two thousand elite troops can be gathered."
Mao Fang also said at this moment: "Although I can't see the signs on those ships clearly, Qingyun Village is the closest to here. If nothing else happens, the only ones who will fight the Manichaeans will be Deng Baichuan's men in Qingyun Village.
"
Then they heard a long roar, which was exactly the roar they heard before. Along with the roar, a deep voice sounded: "Murong Fu, even if you want to intercept and kill my leader, you really can't do it.
Don't you have any defense?"
According to Fang La's words, the reason why the two sides broke out in the war was because Murong Fu intercepted and killed Fang La.
Yang Zhi said excitedly: "It's so exciting. These two groups of rebels are fighting each other."
Chu Yi waved his hand to signal the fleet to stop approaching. At this time, it was still almost two or three miles away from the battle point ahead. Fortunately, there was water vapor on the lake. Otherwise, Chu Yi and his group of dozens of large and small ships would have been destroyed.
Found it.
A small boat carried Chu Yi and others forward. As the boat gradually approached the place where the two sides were fighting, Chu Yi and others could clearly see the fighting situation between the two sides.
