[Hear the name Wang Ke. 】
[Sun Ce's eyes suddenly lit up. 】
[Huang Gai continued: "Wang Yanzhong has known his old master since the Yellow Turban Rebellion. It has been almost ten years now, and they have always exchanged letters... Now, he has moved to be the prefect of Dongjun. It is the time to hire people. If our army goes, He will definitely be able to take on the big responsibility!”]
[Hearing this, Sun Ce suddenly slapped his thigh and said loudly: "Okay, okay! Then we will go to Uncle Wang Ke!"]
【after. 】
[Sun Ce asked civil and military officials all over, and everyone was willing to follow Sun Ce and go north to join Wang Ke. 】
【Since then. 】
[After two or three days. 】
[The funeral arrangements are completed in a hurry. 】
[Sun Ce led his army north to Dongjun and went to join Wang Ke and Wang Yanzhong. 】
【East County. 】
[It is located in Yanzhou, where the state capital is located. 】
[It governs the fifteen counties of Puyang, Yanxian, Baima, Dunqiu, Dong'a, Dongwuyang, Fanxian, Linyi, Boping, Liaocheng, Faqian, Leping, Yangping, Weiguo and Gucheng. 】
[Let’s say that Wang Ke led his subordinates Cheng Yu, Chen Gong, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Cheng Pu, Le Jin, Li Dian and others to Dongjun County, recruiting talents along the way, bending oneself to others, and making heroes from all directions. , gradually surrendered. 】
[Among them, Cheng Yu and Li Dian were the most prominent. 】
[Cheng Yu was originally from Dong'a County, and Li Dian was also from a local wealthy family in Yanzhou. The two called for friends and recruited talented people. In a short time, countless people went to Puyang to meet Wang Ke. 】
[When I first arrived in Dongjun. 】
[Wang Ke saw that the county was sparsely populated. 】
[So, he summoned Cheng Yu to ask the reason. 】
[Cheng Yu replied: "Qingzhou and Yanzhou were where the Yellow Turban Army was most rampant in the past. Now because of Dong Zhuo's abuses, rebel thieves from all over the country are plundering in the name of the Yellow Turban Army... There are also countless thieves in Yanzhou Soldiers have caused the number of people in the county to become increasingly scarce."]
[Wang Ke said: "I see... We can develop the wasteland, attract refugees to come here, restore people's livelihood first, and then go out for conquests."]
[When the two scribes Cheng Yu and Chen Gong heard this, they both followed the order and left. 】
[In the blink of an eye, several months passed. 】
[As Wang Ke crusaded against the bandits, wiped out the bandits, recruited refugees, reclaimed wasteland, and slowly restored people's livelihood, Dongjun gradually began to regain its vitality. 】
【but. 】
【This day. 】
[The imperial court sent a decree saying that the Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou and Yanzhou had risen again and besieged the Shouyang areas. 】
[Bao Xin, Prime Minister of Jibei Province, led troops and horses and personally led the army to fight against the Yellow Turban thieves. 】
【However. 】
[This group of yellow turban thieves is very powerful. 】
[They lured Bao Xin to lead his army deep into a strong area, and then surrounded and killed him on all sides. Bao Xin could not resist and was killed by the thieves. 】
[After Wang Ke learned about this, he mobilized the soldiers of Dongjun and went to Shouyang at starry night to help in the battle. 】
【This time. 】
[With Li Dian and Yue Jin as the vanguard, he defeated the main force of the Yellow Turban bandits in one battle, and then pursued the bandits as far as Jibei. The bandits could not resist, and they all defected and surrendered. 】
【after. 】
[Wang Ke organized the surrendered troops into the front group and attacked other bandits in all directions. 】
[With the help of Wang Ke's great reputation and the surrender of troops in front, soldiers and horses were everywhere, and other bandits and bandits surrendered one after another. 】
[It only takes a month. 】
[The number of thieves and bandits who surrendered to Wang Ke amounted to about three hundred thousand, plus other men, women, old and children, totaling one million people. 】
【See this situation. 】
[Wang Ke then selected the elite among them, named them "Qingzhou Soldiers", and established a total of 30,000 people, and ordered the rest to return to the countryside. 】
【That's right. 】
[Wang Ke’s reputation is growing day by day. 】
[The news reaches Chang'an. 】
[After suggestions from many elite literati in the court, Dong Zhuo pinched his nose and conferred the title of General Zhendong on Wang Ke. 】
【Over time. 】
[Wang Ke established his foothold in Dongjun. 】
[At this time, Sun Ce and others came to seek refuge. Wang Ke warmly received them and arranged them in the Dongwuyang area to guard against bandits. 】
[A few more days passed. 】
[An uncle and nephew came to vote for Wang Ke. 】
[Both uncle and nephew are from Yingyin, Yingchuan. The uncle's surname is Xun, his given name is Yu, and his courtesy name is Wenruo. He is also the son of Xun Kui. He used to be Yuan Shao. Now he abandoned Yuan Shao and came to Wang Ke. His nephew Xun You, whose courtesy name is Gongda. , a well-known person in the country, once worshiped the Huangmen Minister, later abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown, and now joins Wang Ke with his uncle. 】
[At this moment, the uncle and nephew came together to meet Wang Ke. The three of them discussed the general trend of the world. Wang Ke was impressed by Xun Yu's conversation and analysis of the world. He held his hand tightly and said, "This is my son's wife!"]
[Then, Wang Ke consecrated Xun Yu as Marching Sima and Xun You as Marching Professor. 】
[A few more days passed. 】
[There was a general who led hundreds of troops to surrender to Wang Ke. He was from Juping in Mount Tai. His surname was Yu, his given name was Jin, and his courtesy name was Wenze. This man was originally a subordinate of Bao Xin. He was grateful that Wang Ke avenged Bao Xin, so he came to serve. 】
[Wang Ke saw that he was proficient in bow and horse, and had outstanding martial arts, so he ordered him to be the commander of the army. 】
[Therefore, Wang Ke’s subordinates had advisers and powerful generals, and they were powerful in controlling Shandong. 】
[The words are divided into two parts. 】
[Also, there is a place east of the river called Baibo Valley. In the valley there is a remnant of the Yellow Turban Army named Guo Tai, who is brave and good at fighting. Taking advantage of Dong Zhuo's chaos, he recruited soldiers and horses here, gathered more than 100,000 people, and suddenly attacked Taiyuan with no fanfare. Enemy, lead the troops to retreat. 】
[Dong Zhuo heard about this and ordered his son-in-law Niu Fu to lead the elite cavalry to attack Guo Tai. Guo Tai fought bravely and defeated Niu Fu again, and Niu Fu retreated. 】
[Dong Zhuo saw that Mrs. Guo was so powerful, plundering good people and burning cities everywhere, so he asked who could resist. 】
[At that time, Minister Zhao Qi said: "Wang Yanzhong is the only one who wants to defeat the Baibo bandits."]
[Dong Zhuo asked: "Wang Yanzhong is against me, how can I be willing to use him?"]
[Zhao Qi said: "Wang Yanzhong has always been loyal and loyal. He is also the governor of Dongjun and has many soldiers. If you order this person to fight against the thieves, the thieves will be able to defeat him."]
[Dong Zhuo was overjoyed when he heard this. He issued an edict on a starry night and sent people to Dongjun, only to deliver it to Wang Ke. 】
[Wang Ke couldn't help but feel overjoyed when he received this order - a few days ago, he had great success in recruiting Qingzhou soldiers. Now the Baibo thieves' soldiers and horses are obviously stronger than Qingzhou soldiers, so they can just use them. 】
【then. 】
[On the second day after receiving the order. 】
[Wang Ke then summoned the generals to discuss sending troops to attack the Baibo bandits. 】
[I heard that we are going to lead the army into battle. 】
[Zhang He, Zhao Yun, Yu Jin, Le Jin and other generals all asked for help and were willing to lead their troops to attack. 】
[But Wang Ke glanced at the generals, but his eyes fell on the little overlord Sun Ce. 】
[With a smile on his face, he asked Sun Ce: "Bo Fu, are you willing to lead troops and horses to fight against the Baibo bandits?"]
[Sun Ce was overjoyed when he heard that Wang Ke personally ordered the generals. He replied loudly: "The last general is willing to lead his troops and horses to attack the Baibo bandits, take the heads of the bandit chiefs, and offer them to his subordinates!"]
[Wang Ke smiled and praised: "How magnificent! I wonder how many soldiers and horses Bo Fu needs?"]
[Sun Ce said: "We only need our own troops and horses to kill the bandits!"]
[Wang Ke was overjoyed and immediately ordered five thousand soldiers and horses, together with Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao and other Sun Jian's old generals, all under Sun Ce's control. Together they rushed to the Baibo Valley east of the river to kill them. 】
