Going south from Liwu County, you need to pass Yishui. There are not so many boatmen nearby. Fortunately, there are many craftsmen in the army. They built a floating bridge and took almost a day to cross the river.

"The wind is Xiaoxiaoxi and Yishuihan... is it just this Yishui?" Liu Tao looked back at the river and subconsciously thought of this sentence.

"Yi Shui is this Yi Shui, but the location at that time should not be here, but in Yi County." Lu Yan also knew this allusion, but after the explanation, he had to complain, "It's just brother, isn't this not good now?"

Not very good? Unlucky is the real thing! Who told the next sentence to be "A hero will never return once he leaves"...

"Hahaha..." Liu Tao laughed, "We are not Jing Ke who went to Xianyang to assassinate Qin Emperor. What's wrong with it? Besides, after crossing the river this time, we went south to Anguo County, west to Hanchang, Xinshi and Wuji counties. At that time, we must be stationed in Wuji and wait for the teacher's military order to go south. Later, we may have to go to Luoyang and work in another place... Perhaps, we have passed Yishui this time and we don't know when it will be next time we come back."

Lu Yan opened his mouth and said nothing in the end. This brother could make a point of making a decision about everything, but after careful consideration, there was some reason. The main thing was that he liked to argue for everything and had to fight for a result. He would give up only after winning the battle, so he simply didn't argue with him.

"How long is it to Anguo?" Liu Tao asked casually.

"It will be around thirty miles southeast, and you will arrive in about the afternoon!" Zhang Fei was also responsible for the scout and came over to answer after hearing this.

"Didn't it mean that the two counties are fifty miles apart?" Liu Tao was a little surprised when he heard this.

"The county is in charge of fifty miles, but it is not said that each county has a radius of fifty miles. According to the different regions, the shapes of the areas under the jurisdiction are different. For example, Anguo County is sandwiched between Yishui and Yushui, so the directly-governed area has become an extension of east and west. For example, Anxi County, part of the west and east to north, also extends in both directions." Lu Yan stepped forward to answer his doubts.

Anguo in this era was different from Anguo City in later generations. Anguo City in later generations was around 25 kilometers southwest of Boye County. Anxi County in this era was located between Dingzhou City and Anguo County in later generations.

The location of the later Oye County was located in this era, but the location of Liwu County, or Lixian, was 11 kilometers northeast of Boye County. The location of Anguo County in this era was about 15 kilometers southeast of Liwu County.

"Then we'll get there all day, don't practice it for the time being!" Liu Tao thought for a while, then ordered.

It is actually quite slow to travel thirty miles a day. Departing halfway through Mao (6 o'clock in the morning), and halfway through Wu (2 o'clock in the afternoon), the outline of Anguo County has appeared on the horizon.

"Take Gaosheng's head and the ten surrendered soldiers from Liwu County, go over and persuade them to surrender." Liu Tao pointed to the front order.

"Here!" Zhang Fei immediately called the ten surrendered soldiers who followed the army, and at the same time, he quickly moved over with Gao Sheng's head.

Before Liu Tao arrived, his experience value increased by 200 points. As expected, the thieves in Anguo County also chose to surrender. He had the opportunity to save his life and also save his family. This temptation was the best result for most people who had to come from the thief earlier.

It is because they are not firm that they are arranged to be guarded by Gaosheng and do not pay much attention to them. In other words, these traitors who are stationed, are basically the easiest types to surrender as long as conditions allow.

"Brother!" Zhang Fei returned from a horse, "Anguo County opened the door and surrendered!"

"Well, I understand. I'll take over the defense with peace of mind. Today we will rest in Anguo County for one night." Liu Tao nodded. At the same time, he also told everyone: this surrender is true, and you can take over the defense with peace of mind.

The generals around him were all wise. He nodded after hearing this and immediately arranged personnel to take over the defense work of Anguo County. At the same time, according to convention, military control is carried out here and public order is maintained.

"I didn't expect that the leader was really surrendered..." Lu Yan sighed. It was a good thing to spend no more than one soldier. The biggest problem was that the soldiers below had undergone several reorganizations and their combat effectiveness decreased, and several field battles were needed to improve their strength.

"Not all surrendered..." Zhang Fei walked over angrily, "When we went to take over, there were only 123 people. More than 70 people seemed to have escaped when they saw that the situation was not good."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Liu Tao looked directly at Zhang Fei, "Ask clearly the direction and then catch up with me. If you catch up, you don't need to keep the prisoners, just bring your head back."

"I understand!" Zhang Fei was about to say this, but he didn't expect Liu Tao to say it first, overjoyed, and immediately took the order and left.

"We..." Guan Yu asked tentatively when he saw this.

"They have a distance away. Now I'm chasing you, and you don't have the advantage." Liu Tao shook his head, "After maintaining public order, appropriately divide the time for duty... There is still a lot of time, just train for one or two hours."

"Here!" Guan Yu and others accepted the order and then began to arrange.

Needless to say, Lu Yan first went to the government office to check it out, and then asked about the wealthy families in Anguo County. Needless to think about it, the Yellow Turban thieves came to kill them, and unless they were followed by the thief in advance, there was no possibility of being spared.

The warehouses and money of several wealthy families were naturally emptied by the thieves. However, Lu Yan and even Jian Yong didn't care about these. What they cared more was whether the books of these wealthy families were affected.

"These two guys are becoming more and more like bandits..." Liu Tao shook his head. I still remember that when he was in Liwu County, Lu Yan even brought people to search for wealthy families, trying to find hidden money.

I have to say that those old-fashioned people can be found if they look carefully. Some of them have been found, but there is nothing inside. It is probably because the thief has taken them away in advance. But it doesn't matter. Lu Yan and Jian Yong are happy. Every time they capture the city, they have to scrape the ground three feet from the homes of these wealthy families and search them carefully.

Fortunately, I still know my shame, and I did bad things, and I helped restore the environment and cover it up.

In the evening of that day, Zhang Fei returned with his cavalry troops, with more than 70 heads. None of the thieves who escaped were spared and were all brought back.

"Don't have their family?" Liu Tao was a little surprised.

"I asked the prisoners, but none of these people have family members..." Zhang Fei shook his head.

"Oh, no wonder I ran away." Liu Tao nodded. Without family, he naturally had no concern. He was worried that the officers and soldiers would not let them go, so he simply ran away. It may also be because he was used to being a thief and was not used to being a commoner.

During dinner, a knight came to Anguo County and said that he had a letter from Changshan to Liu Sima. After confirming the letter, the soldiers on duty put it in. The knight delivered the letter to Liu Tao for a while.

"Oh, this handwriting is good!" Liu Tao opened the letter and praised it. The handwriting of the letter is full of heroic spirit, with the style of a warrior and three-point elegance, which is very rare. Looking at the signature again, I saw the five words "Zhao Zilong of Changshan" and suddenly became energetic.
