On the surging river, dozens of boats and boats loaded with more than 200 soldiers went upstream. On one of the big boats, a flag with the word "Liu" was inserted and danced in the wind.

At the head of the big boat, Zhou Shun, Zhang Gui, Chen Da and others stood around Liu Feng.

"I've heard that you're just robbing ordinary villages, why do you amass so much wealth?" Of course, Liu Feng was tempted by the wealth of two or three thousand gold, but now that he thought about it, he was a little puzzled and couldn't help asking.

"Grain. The north is in turmoil, and food is scarce. Expensive. We have robbed Jingzhou for several years, and it is not difficult to accumulate a wealth of two or three thousand gold. Zhou Shun replied.

The injuries on his and Zhang Gui's bodies have been treated simply, and even a set of clothes have been changed. Except for his slightly pale face, he didn't look like an injured person at all.

"I see." Liu Feng said suddenly.

Although it is against the current, it is faster to take the water route than the land route. When the sky was about to darken, Liu Feng and the others came to Du Island.

The gate of the inner wall of Du Island is closed, and you can also see the water thieves guarding it. It can be seen that the news of Zhou Shun's defeat did not spread.

When the ship approached, Zhang Gui stood at the bow of the ship and ordered the thieves to open the gate.

Although Liu Feng and others were dressed as officials and soldiers, Zhang Gui's prestige still made the water thieves in charge of the garrison happily open the gate of the wall. welcomed Liu Feng and others in.

After entering the stockade, Liu Feng couldn't help but be amazed by the defensive power of this small island.

There are only two exits to this island, and with only a small number of troops, the purpose of defending the island can be achieved. And the island is also very large, at least a thousand people can live.

It's a pretty good base to guard this water system.

After entering the island, Chen Da immediately took over the defense with the army, while Zhang Gui took Liu Feng and others into the warehouse. opened boxes for Liu Feng. There is a lot of gold in it.

Without Liu Feng's orders, Xu Tian immediately took the soldiers up to count.

looked at his officials, and counted the wealth that originally belonged to Zhang Gui and Zhou Shun. Liu Feng felt a little embarrassed, coughed softly, and said to Zhang Gui: "Take me to the living room." ”

"No." Zhang Gui didn't feel it, since these things were dedicated to Liu Feng, they were Liu Feng's things. Hearing this, he immediately took Liu Feng to the living room.

After entering the living room, the two invited Liu Feng to take a seat, and the two of them sat on both sides.

The dress in the living room is quite normal, the only thing that makes Liu Feng a little surprised is that there are still women waiting in this place.

Looking at a few fair-skinned and brightly dressed women, bending down to serve him tea and pour water. Liu Feng slowly understood.

"These are subordinate women, if the captain likes ......." Seeing that Liu Feng had paid a few glances to his women, Zhang Gui said with a smile.

But before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhou Shunji.

"How can Lord Lieutenant care about these women of yours." Zhou Shun gave Zhang Gui, who was unabashed, a look, and then explained to Liu Feng: "We are water thieves, we have robbed many villages over the years, and we have slowly had a family, and the family is small. ”

"Needless to explain, you've been here for four or five years. There is some power in the hands, and it is not surprising that there are more women. Liu Feng waved his hand and signaled Zhou Shun not to explain more.

After Liu Feng said this, there was a brief silence in the living room, after all, the three of them had only just met, and they even tore each other apart.

If you don't understand each other, you naturally don't have too many words.

In the silence, the few gorgeously dressed women also felt pressure, and poured tea for Liu Feng and the others. Blessed, he immediately withdrew.

However, after a short silence, Zhou Shun glanced at Zhang Gui, Zhang Gui frowned, and then nodded slowly.

"My lord, I have something to tell you." Zhou Shun sighed when he saw Zhang Gui nodding. Raise your fist to Liu Fengdao.

"Say." Zhou Shun was so solemn that Liu Feng couldn't help but purge his face and raised his hand.

"Back then, Cao Gong fought against General Zhang, although General Zhang resisted, but Cao Gong's power became stronger and stronger, and the threat became bigger and bigger. The general was afraid, so he listened to Jia Xu's plan and surrendered to Cao Gong. But because he killed Cao Ang, Dian Wei and others in Wancheng that year, the general was suspicious. So he ordered the two of us to garrison Du Island with a batch of baggage, which is considered a back road. Zhou Shun faced Liu Feng and slowly explained the reason why the two of them were stationed on Du Island.

After Liu Feng heard this, he immediately thought of what Zhou Shun and the others said before, Zhang Xiu had not contacted them for several years. When I thought about it, I immediately guessed the reason.

Zhang Xiu must have gained a firm foothold on Cao Ying's side, and he was afraid that the matter of leaving a way back because he was suspicious of Cao Ying would be exposed, so he stopped contacting Zhou Shun and others.

After Zhou Shun finished speaking, he looked up and saw Liu Feng listening quietly. So he smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, we also know that General Ran has gained a firm foothold in the north, so our existence is equivalent to superfluous." But without the general, we feel like we are alone and ownerless. There was no place to return, so he tried his best to rob the gold and silver, and when the supplies were sufficient, he set off north to meet the general. Offering gold and silver, hoping that the general will contain us. ”

Speaking of this, Zhou Shun and Zhang Gui's faces were gloomy one after another. It's just that I want to return to my old master, but it's really difficult.

Liu Feng was a little shocked in his heart, but he realized the hardships.

An old general who wants to return to his old master. But for the old master, this old general is already dispensable, even a danger.

The harm is still great.

Zhou Shun and Zhang Gui have been desperately robbing property all these years, and it is almost impossible to return to their old masters.

"For Zhang Xiu, you are superfluous, but for me, you are or indispensable." Liu Feng slowly raised his fist at the two of them, and said very solemnly.

Zhou Shun and Zhang Gui glanced at each other, Zhou Shun raised his fist at Liu Feng and said gratefully: "Thank you for your love, it's just that the two of us have more to say." ”

As he spoke, Zhou Shun looked up at Liu Feng, a man who was not very old, but was also struggling to survive. Raising his fist, he said: "The baggage that the two of us brought back then was not small, although some leather armor, spears, bows and arrows and other things have been used up over the years. But there were still two hundred pairs of iron armor, and they were hidden in the nearby river. ”

When Zhou Shun said this, he had undoubtedly dedicated all of himself to Liu Feng. Including loyalty, wealth, and their attachment to Zhang Xiu in their hearts.

"Two hundred pairs of iron armor?" Liu Feng changed his composure and suddenly stood up. Lost voice.
