Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 175 Bingzhou with many factions, Liu Qing's choice
Zhang Rang originally wanted to stand up and help His Majesty go out, but he felt a sharp pain in his back thigh. He stretched out his hand to touch it, and an arrow shot straight into his right thigh, touching the bone deeply.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" He called out twice, and just now he also heard Liu Hong's call.

The flames flickered in the darkness, Liu Hong's face was distorted, and he grinned and gasped, "Zhang Changshi, save me, I've been hit by an arrow!"

Zhang Rang reluctantly helped Liu Hong up, and Liu Hong screamed again, "Zhen... I got shot in the knee!"

In a moment of desperation, Liu Hong was also standing, so an arrow shot directly into his knee, fortunately, it didn't go through.

Liu Hong wiped his trembling hands and found that there was also one stuck in his body. He was even more astonished, and was speechless for a while, "And...and the left abdomen!"

Zhang Rang endured the pain and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this imperial chariot won't last long, I'm in danger!"

Zhang Rang instinctively wanted to go out, but the arrows shot from time to time made him dispel this idea. He opened the curtain and saw that the coachman had been shot dead.

Zhang Rang's legs trembled uncontrollably. Now the four horses were galloping instinctively. It might be that the burning imperial chariot startled them. The road conditions ahead were unknown. If there was a turn, the imperial chariot would fall down.

"What to do! Zhang Changshi, I'm in such pain!" Liu Hong shouted.

Zhang Rang was speechless for a while, a wave of despair welled up in his heart, and even wanted to jump out of the car.

"I'm going to fall here!" Liu Hong suddenly said in despair, the inner wall he was holding on to felt a burning sensation, his hands could no longer support him, he staggered in the car, fell down again, and felt a heart-rending pain in his knee .

Under the firelight, Liu Hong's face was ferocious, pale, frightened, and even a little unwilling.

"Kill! Kill!"

A burst of shouts came again, Liu Hong suddenly raised his head and listened curiously.

The sound of shouting and killing came from the front!
He glanced out the window, and saw batches of armored horses running in the opposite direction of the imperial chariot, rushing to the rear.

reinforcements?A thought flashed through Liu Hong's mind.

With a "thud", there was movement in front, and the people inside felt that the carriage had stopped.

The curtain of the car was lifted suddenly, and a general in silver armor, with a little fire reflected on his body, looked eagerly into the car.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Yun's rescue is late!"

"Zhao Yun! It's Zhao Yun who killed Zhang Liang!" Liu Hong suddenly remembered that Zhao Yun was the captain of Changshan County.

"It's a humble job! Your Majesty is injured?"

"Your Majesty was hit by two arrows, but fortunately they are not fatal." Zhang Rang sighed.

"Your Majesty, leave this place quickly! This chariot is about to collapse!" After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun turned around, turned his back to Liu Hong, and said, "Your Majesty, I will carry you down."

Liu Hong leaned on Zhao Yun's back with great difficulty, and got out of the carriage with difficulty. Zhang Rang limped along. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun left directly behind Liu Hong's back.

gone……

The fire outside the car was fierce and the heat wave was burning, Zhang Rang gritted his teeth and jumped.

"Hey, hello!" A male duck's wailing overwhelmed the shouting for a while.

Zhao Yun carried Liu Hong on his back and walked all the way towards Guo Jia. Liu Hong glanced back. From the corner of his eyes, apart from Zhang Rang's embarrassed figure and the burning imperial chariot, there was a fight farther away.

He sighed, and his hanging heart finally fell.

With the help of a torch, Guo Jia briefly inspected Liu Hong's injuries and heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it was not a fatal injury. It seems that the golden sore medicine given by the lord can also be saved.

"Who are you?" Liu Hong looked at Guo Jia and asked.

Guo Jia cupped his hands, "Return to Your Majesty, I was originally ordered by Lord Jufu to rescue Yantao, and when I heard that the Black Mountain Army abandoned Changtao and attacked His Majesty, I hurried on a starry night to rescue Your Majesty."

Gritting his teeth, Liu Hong said with difficulty, "Ju Shou..."

At the same time, I also remembered that Jushou, who killed Zhang Bao, and Zhao Yun, who killed Zhang Liang, were all sealed in Changshan County. Unexpectedly, the person who saved him was not Zhijinwu, not the Xiyuan Army, but Jizhou soldiers from Jushou.

"Wang Fen rebelled and wanted to do harm. Thanks to Ju Taishou's insights, he saved me from danger. I will definitely reward you!" When Liu Hong was in danger, he first drew a big cake for his savior.

"Your Majesty is fine, luckily!" Guo Jia said with "concern".

Zhao Yun started to bandage Liu Hong's arrows with the crude method used in the army, and then set up a campfire for rest.

In the middle of the night, the Xiyuan Shangjun led by Zhao Zhong actually found Liu Hong, claiming to have killed hundreds of enemies, but Wang Fen had fled and disappeared.

In this regard, Liu Hong had nothing to do except curse a few words angrily.

The next day.

Guo Jia asked for orders to find and annihilate the Black Mountain Army, but Liu Hong ordered Zhao Yun to continue to protect him. Obviously, he was not very relieved about the Xiyuan Army. This was not beyond Guo Jia's expectations. Jin Wu, he is willing to let Zhao Yun go.

Looking at the armored and solemn cavalry, Liu Hong's eyes were also a little fiery. Even if this mighty army is used as a royal guard of honor, it is more than enough. It is unbelievable that the prefect Ju has created such a powerful cavalry.

No wonder Zhang Bao can be destroyed and Zhang Liang killed.

Liu Hong began to think about the rewards for Jushou and Zhao Yun. Wang Fen was defeated and Jizhou Inspector was vacant, but Jushou was already the prefect, and it was obviously impossible to transfer to Inspector. Before, Jushou was no more than a county magistrate.

Zhao Yun was easy to seal, but seeing Zhao Yun's age, Liu Hong hesitated again.

At such a young age, I have made such great achievements. Is it because I am getting old?
After walking for another half day, I suddenly met a group of men and horses coming from the south. It turned out that it was Yao Gong, the Prime Minister of Qinghe Kingdom.

Liu Hong's attitude towards him was very indifferent.

The reinforcements from Changshan County have arrived!

The reinforcements from Qinghe Kingdom are only here now!

Without Zhao Yun, he would probably die.

The displeasure was displeasure, Yao Gong came, and he finally had an attitude, Liu Hong didn't blame him too much, he just wanted to return to Luoyang quickly, and return to the West Garden to recuperate from his injuries.

……

Guo Jia achieved Liu Qing's so-called "goal". At the same time, Liu Qing was not idle in Yanmen, Xun Yu was already making arrangements for the matter of setting up Xiangxiang in the cloud, and Qian Ying was gathering troops.

And Liu Qing, under Xun Yu's suggestion, first went south to Taiyuan County to visit Yangqu Guoyu.

Hearing Liu Qing's visit, Guo Yan was waiting in front of the mansion. Now Liu Qing is a very popular figure in Bingzhou. It is not surprising that he is appointed as the prefect of Yanmen at a young age. Now he is the Marquis of Wuzhou. Such an honor, It can be called Bingzhou No.1.

The carriage approached slowly, Liu Qing got out of the carriage, and saw Guo Yan leading his family at the door, and as soon as he saw Liu Qing, he went up to meet him.

"My lord is here, the Guo mansion is full of splendor!"

"Qing likes to move around when he is fighting everywhere, so he went south to see the scenery of Taiyuan, sorry for bothering you!" Liu Qing said politely.

Guo Yan lured Liu Qing into the house. Looking at the scene in the courtyard, Liu Qing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Even a tree in the garden has grown very old, but it grows very well and has completely adapted to the environment, which is completely different from the newly planted one.

Guo Yan is not very old, only a few years older than Liu Qing, and has no heirs so far. Because he is in the north, he has suffered another serious illness, making him look much older.

The Guo family is a solid family. His father, Guo Quannai, was a former chief minister of agriculture and died of illness. His uncle, Guo Zunnai, was the former governor of Yanzhou. Now he is a doctor of Guanglu. not bad.

Of course, it may also be bought.

"As soon as the young master came to office, the troubles of Xianbei were easily solved. I really admired it, so the official wrote to me, talking about Yanmen today, it is really a new look, and only the young master can get so many prisoners of war to open up wasteland for Yanmen. Mine." Guo Yan sincerely praised, obviously still very concerned about Yanmen.

He has always called Liu Qing "Young Master", obviously recognizing his identity as the son of the King of Bohai.

"Xianbei's difficulty is not for a while. I use the method of barbarism to control the barbarians. The Xianbei royal family is weak and friendly, while the chieftains are strong and aggressive. I will support the royal family to control the chieftains. The chieftains are already He died, but his brother Bu Dugen still has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and his heart to commit crimes is not dead, and the counties in the north of Bingzhou may not be able to stop." Liu Qing said.

Guo Yan pondered for a moment, "Yunzhong County Governor Lehe, the Huang family in Wei County, is now very old, and has asked the court to resign several times, but the court has not agreed, and Dingxiang County, because the county has few people. , and was threatened by Xianbei, the position of prefect has never been sold, so there has been no prefect for many years, if I recover from illness this time, the imperial court may let me go to one of these two counties, my son and I can become neighbors."

Who is going to be your neighbor!Liu Qing thought to himself.

Both counties are mine!
However, Guo Yan's thinking is very reasonable, maybe the court will really do this.

"Bian County is bitterly cold, it's better not to go!" Liu Qing joked, "Taiyuan County is also connected to Jizhou, so that's a good place to go!"

Liu Qing pointedly suggested.

Guo Yan gave a hearty smile, which was very useful, "If you can really enter Hebei and become an official, you will really follow the auspicious words of your son!"

Liu Qing had a smile on his face, but he was delighted in his heart: Jizhou is in a catastrophe, and there must be a lot of changes. The positions of a governor and several county guards will definitely be vacant, just wait for you!

"How does brother Guo think about the matter of establishing a state animal husbandry?"

Guo Yan shook his head and said: "Bingzhou is not Bita County. There are many mountains and rivers, and there are foreigners living together. Moreover, the prefects of Bingzhou have different backgrounds. The prefect of Wuyuan belongs to the eunuch faction. The prefect Xing Ji who died in the battle of Xihe is He Xing Ji. Into the faction, Taiyuan prefect Zang Min, who set an example for the scholars, has a good reputation, and now the young master is leading the Yanmen, and he belongs to the same faction, and it is not easy for Dong Zhuo to lead Bingzhou."

Hearing Guo Yan's introduction, Liu Qing suddenly realized that if he wanted to see the current situation clearly, he still needed local leaders. Guo Yan knew all about the prefects of the counties.

However, the problem now is that the prefect of Xihe died in battle, the prefect of Wuyuan waited to die, and the prefect of Taiyuan abided by his duty, and naturally he would not disobey the emperor's order to rebel against Dong Zhuo. It seems that it is not difficult to control Bingzhou.

"Brother Guo is a treasure trove, he knows Bingzhou like the palm of his hand, I admire him! Hearing what brother said, Qing Fang knows that he is the weakest faction." Liu Qing shook his head helplessly.

"Young master is too humble. You have not been crowned yet, and you have already been granted the title of Marquis of Wuzhou. Your future is limitless! A mere Yanmen will not be able to trap you!" While speaking, Guo Yan's eyes shone brightly.

Others don't know the current situation of Yanmen, but he knows it very well. The county magistrate Xun Yu is a great talent. He has managed Yanmen in an orderly manner in just a few months. I don't know why, such a great talent is willing to submit to Liu Qing's tent and become the magistrate of a county.

This point, he has not understood.

Until Liu Qing destroyed the Southern Huns.

It was not the defeat of the main force of the Southern Huns as rumored outside, but the uprooting of many tribes of the Southern Huns and their inclusion in Yanmen.

Reminiscent of Liu Qing choosing this time to come to Taiyuan County for "playing", no doubt he wanted to explore the wind, so Guo Yan still knew that even if Liu Qing didn't have the ambition of an emperor, he at least had the air of a prince.

Thinking about his life experience and background, I am afraid that the lowest goal of the young master is to bring back the prince who was taken away from him.

Liu Qing still smiled harmlessly, and chatted with him about other big families in Yangqu, and chatted gossipingly about whether his military advisor, Guo Jia, came from the Guo family of Yingchuan, the Guo family of Taiyuan and the Guo family of Yingchuan. Same origin?
While chatting, Guo Yan suddenly had a strange idea.

The Xun family and the Guo family in Yingchuan sent their children to vote for him, did they also fancy his temperament?
The Guo family in Taiyuan has a small reputation in Taiyuan and can be ranked at the forefront. Although his uncle Guo Zun worshiped Jiuqing as an official, it has already come to an end. How can the Guo family led by him continue to write the glory of his father's generation?

"Brother Guo, what is the relationship between Guo and Wang?"

"It's not bad. The ancestors of the two families also had relatives-in-law. It's just that in this generation, they don't move around much."

It is true that the two families are rightly matched and have relatives by marriage.

"I don't know why, Wang Zishi suddenly ran away from Yanmen, he must have been dismissed as an official, so let's go around to relax." Liu Qing said suddenly.

Prince Wang Yun's teacher, Liu Qing knew he was in Yanmen, and Xun Yu recognized him, he didn't know what to do, Liu Qing ignored him.

Liu Qingzhi's words made Guo Yan's eyelids twitch, did Wang make the first move!

Wang Yun's fight against Zhang Rang failed, and he lived in seclusion at home. The whole world knew that Wang Yun was the only one in Wang's generation.

Dong Zhuo was in Bingzhou and was coming to Jinyang Road. At this time, Wang Yun didn't wait for Dong Zhuo, but quietly went to Yanmen. Could it be that the Wang family wanted to choose the young master to stand in line?

Liu Qing looked at Guo Yan as he fell into deep thought, and knew it in his heart.

really!

Xun Yu's guess was right. The Wang family and the Guo family are friendly on the surface, but they are secretly competing behind their backs.

When Wang Yun appeared in Yanmen, Xun Yu immediately suggested that he go to Taiyuan to visit Guo Yan, and "inadvertently" disclosed the news of Wang Yun's stay in Yanmen to Guo Yan, which was of great help to win over the Guo family.

Seeing Guo Yan's lost look, Liu Qing gave Xun Yu a big compliment in his heart.

"Did you meet Master Zi?" Guo Yan asked.

Began to test.

"Never, I have never met the Wang family, and I never thought that there will be any intersection!"

If there is, it should only be Diao Chan, Liu Qing added in his heart.

This sentence was taught by Xun Yu, wooing a noble family is different from wooing an individual, it cannot be sold for a price, you must have a clear stand.

Liu Qing expressed his indifference to the Wang family, which is the minimum sincerity.

Guo Yan breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the tea on the table, and moistened his mouth. He was a little surprised. He was very relaxed while chatting, but during the chat, the young man in front of him actually put more and more pressure on him.

It was so big that there was a faint force urging him to make friends with Liu Qing.

Say hello to him.

Even - directly with him.
