Outside the General's carriage, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao and other generals were following from a distance, and He Jin's wild laughter could be heard coming from the carriage from time to time.
Yuan Shu felt a little sour and said, "I don't know what to talk about. The general is so happy!"
Yuan Shao looked further ahead than his younger brother, and lowered his voice: "Now Qin Boxi is no longer the powerful countryman before, but the God of War of the Han Dynasty. With the aura of national war merits, he has become a champion. It can be said that He is famous all over the world, and he has been granted the title of General Zhenglu and concurrently serves as the governor of Qingzhou. It can be said that he is a real official in the border area. His political influence and strength have far exceeded ours. The general must try his best to win over him as his confidant and prepare for the changes in the future. Prepare!"
Yuan Shu frowned when he heard this. The change in the sky that Yuan Shao mentioned was that the emperor was weak and would probably fly to the west. At that time, there would definitely be a storm in the court.
What does He Jin want to do to win over Qin Ge? Is he going to raise an army...
Cao Cao also heard Yuan Shao's words, pawed his hands and sighed: "The road in Luoyang will be full of mud in the future. To be honest, I am a little envious of Boxi. I can avoid this big whirlpool that is about to explode, and I am happy in the place!"
"Have fun and relax! If you are not afraid of being swarmed by bandits and torn into pieces! In fact, you, Cao Mengde, can also take the initiative to volunteer! I think you are very optimistic about Qin Boxi. I heard that a 300,000-strong evolutionary force is being organized to provide assistance. Qin Ge is marching into Qingzhou, you guys have always been unwilling to do anything early, is there some conspiracy!" Yuan Shu ridiculed Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao also looked at Cao Cao suspiciously.
All the generals wrote letters of remonstrance to the general and the emperor, but Cao Mengde was the only one who wrote a letter of remonstrance to fully support Qin Ge's march to Qingzhou.
Cao Cao has always been Yuan Shao's confidant, and many strategies came from him. He Jin also trusted him very much. Cao Cao's advice made He Jin determined to support Qin Ge.
Yuan Shao became suspicious of whether this guy was hiding some conspiracy from him.
"Highway! This is definitely judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart! I, Cao Cao, walk the right way, and my full support for Boxi is for the sake of the country's plans and national justice, as well as my brotherhood with Boxi. Of course, if If you two have any doubts, you can send troops to assist Boxi in suppressing the bandits. I believe Boxi will be happy to do so!" Cao Cao clapped his hands and shouted for Tianqu.
However, the Yuan brothers knew best who Cao Cao was. The two remained silent, and the resentment and estrangement between the three of them became deeper and deeper.
The army followed the general's vehicle all the way to the outside of Jizhou City. He Jin had already set up a military camp outside the city in advance, and asked soldiers from all ministries to garrison the military camp. He also asked the nobles in the city to carry rich wine and meat to each military camp to express condolences and rewards.
At the same time, He Jin summoned all generals above the rank of captain to the city lord's palace, where He Jin personally held a banquet to celebrate the achievements of all the officers and men.
In the military camp, Qin Ge met Xun Chen and Mao Jie, who had been preparing and waiting here for a long time. They had not seen each other for almost half a year, and the three of them were filled with emotions when they met.
After greeting everyone for a few words, Xun Chen took Qin Ge's arm and walked aside, scratching his head and saying, "I heard that Brother Qin made a great title to the generals, why don't I have a share?"
Qin Ge looked at Xun Chen, the young man in front of him, and laughed dumbly: "You haven't even crowned me yet, so I can't hire child labor! If your brother finds out, you'll have to settle the score with me!"
Xun Chen said anxiously: "Brother Qin won't abandon me! I followed you to a land of ice and snow thousands of miles away, and served you conscientiously. Now that you have accomplished something, I won't even kick you." Kill me!"
As he spoke, he whispered in Qin Ge's ear: "Brother Qin, my father and third brother have written several letters in succession in the past few days, saying that if I don't return to Luoyang, they will ask me for unfilial piety, and you must help me. !”
Qin Ge's face became serious when he heard this and said: "Youruo! This time we go to Qingzhou is not a joke. There are wolves everywhere there. We go there with the determination to perish together. To be honest! Your negotiation skills are unique. , is exactly the talent I need, but you have to think clearly... your brother and father are also worried about your safety!"
Xun Chen patted his chest and said: "No need to think about it, I have already thought about it very clearly. A man is born in the world and must achieve a great cause. Extraordinary people must do extraordinary things. I have long wanted to follow Brother Qin to establish a business." The meritorious deeds that will last forever have strengthened my thoughts in Jizhou. I am going to pay my respects to my lord in Xunchen!"
I didn't expect that a first-class historical figure would be banished by Qin Geden.
Qin Ge had already been happy for a long time. Now he was in urgent need of all kinds of talents when conquering Qingzhou.
This expedition against the bandits is absolutely of immeasurable value in gathering the powerful local forces in Qingzhou.
Therefore, in the second phase of Guan Zhong's strategy, the key figure for Qin Ge to unite Qingzhou's powerful forces was Chen Yuan. He was a famous figure in Qingzhou, had a very high reputation in Qingzhou, and was familiar with the power structure of all parties.
As a descendant of the Xun family, a noble clan, Xun Chen had a reputation as Mount Tai Beidou among the powerful noble clans. This kind of talent was what Qin Ge's men lacked the most.
If Xun Chen joins and perfectly combines with Chen Yuanzhu, it will definitely produce miraculous results.
Qin Ge patted Xun Chen on the shoulder and said: "How could I forget you? I have prepared a job title for you in the county. I don't know if you can do it!"
Qin Ge has already consecrated Chen Yuan as a prefecture official, and now he has also conferred Xun Chen as a prefectural official. As one of the eight major officials of the governor, the prefecture official is mainly responsible for supervising the political affairs of various counties and states for the governor. The scope of supervision is very wide, involving scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. , money, grain, treasury, military affairs and people's livelihood, and is also an important person in coordinating various counties and state capitals.
The number of county officials can be increased. Logically speaking, each county can have a county official. However, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, this position was dispensable, and in many cases it was an honorary title.
Xun Chen jumped up excitedly when he heard this, stroking his palms and smiling: "I didn't expect Brother Qin to take such good care of me. He is engaged in the county! That's the salary of 800 stones, which is comparable to that of the county governor, and is better than the third brother's Huangmenshu. The official should be a few steps higher, hehe! Among the younger generation of the Xun family, I am the youngest but the best. I wonder if there are any people who say that I am opportunistic when I have nothing to do, and I am fooling around all day long. Now I can be regarded as the official of the Han Dynasty. I can reply to my family confidently. Since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety. I want to stay in Qingzhou and be loyal to the court. In that case, no one will dare to recruit me back!"
Qin Ge couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "You kid, your brain is very fast, and you have to use it on the right path in the future. I really have no talents around me, so I put you in a high position. Don't embarrass me!"
In fact, this time Xun Chen united with the Jizhou nobles, which played a decisive role in the development of the entire national war. From the perspective of strategic value, it was more than enough to reward a county for work.
Hearing this, Xun Chen quickly clasped his fists and said, "Although it cannot be said to be perfect, Xun Chen will definitely go all out!"
Qin Ge is 100% convinced of Xun Chen's talent.
Historically, Xun Chen caused a sensation in the world when he appeared on the scene. With his sharp tongue, he persuaded Han Fu to hand over Jizhou to Yuan Shao.
After that, he disappeared like a meteor in the long river of history. Perhaps because of his embarrassing identity, Xun Yu and Xun You became Cao Cao's masterminds. With Yuan Shao's broadmindedness and suspicion, he must have been ostracized and suppressed.
Afterwards, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, and as Yuan Shao's old minister, he had nowhere to put his talents to use, and in the end he only disappeared in obscurity.
Under Qin Ge's command, Xun Chen can definitely show off his talents and shine, and the golden name of the Xun family in Yingchuan has a fatal attraction for the powerful and powerful families in Qingzhou.
After explaining everything in the military camp, Xu Shu was asked to stay and take care of the military camp. Among the infantry, Qin Jiwu and Qin Jiben were left behind, and among the cavalry, Qin Jizong and Lei Bao were left behind.
Qin Ge led the other generals to the Jizhou Mansion to attend the general's banquet.
According to Qin Ge, the brothers have all been promoted to noble positions, taking everyone to see the world and taste what it's like to drink wine.
Qin Ge led the soldiers on horseback. On the streets, Jizhou Prefecture had sent guards to clear the streets. Otherwise, Qin Ge would have been surrounded by water based on his reputation.
Qin Ge led dozens of people on horseback and headed straight to the Governor's Mansion, causing quite a stir.
When they arrived at the Governor's Mansion, lanterns and decorations had been put on. There was even a bright red carpet in front of the mansion, and various colored lanterns and silks were hung everywhere. Many of the brothers who followed Qin Ge had seen this posture before, and they were all dazzled by it. .
Seeing this, Tian Feng said in a cold voice: "Be more solemn, we represent the face of the lord, don't lose your status to the lord!"
Liao Hua, Sun Guan, Lu Weihuang and others stood up straight one after another and stopped looking around in a sly manner.
However, Zhao Yun, Deng Zhi, Han Hao and others who received higher education since childhood showed a normal mind.
Qin Ge smiled heartily and said: "Brothers are here to have a banquet, so you should look like you are eating a banquet, but don't be too restrained. You will let me eat it later. The emperor's reward is the delicacies, dragon liver and phoenix." You don't get courage often!" Everyone laughed when they heard this.
At this moment, two lonely figures walked in front of the mansion. They turned out to be Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. Because the official position invited to the general's banquet was too high, among the Bingzhou flying cavalry, only Lu Bu qualified, while Zhang Liao was invited as an exception because of his outstanding performance. .
Seeing the generals and generals cheering around Qin Ge and his entourage, Lu Bu felt even more unhappy. Now all the troops knew that many left army generals had been promoted because of Qin Ge.
In particular, Zhao Yun relied on his outstanding military exploits to be directly promoted from a white body to the captain of the state capital. It can be said that he reached the sky in one step and directly created a legend.
Of course, Zhao Yun defeated Tiefutu in Luoyan Lake and killed Yeongae Suwen's younger brother Yeongae Suying. During the surprise attack on Snow Wolf Castle, he led the expeditionary knights to fight thousands of miles and killed countless enemies. Later, he defended Snow Wolf Castle and killed many enemies. Kim Hyun and Kim Yuncheng, the generals of Goryeo civilization.
During the battle with Karasuma, the formation killed Qiu Liju, the leader of Karasuma. There were more than ten other famous historical Goryeo generals who died under him. They were called famous general harvesters by the evolvers of the Goryeo Civilization Zone. Zhao Yun's meritorious deeds are well-deserved for the post of captain of the state capital.
