Just after clearing out a group of bandits, Liu Hong saw someone riding a horse to report.
"Sir, there is a group of yellow scarf thieves ahead who are chasing several people."
Yellow Turban Thief?
Liu Hong had a weird look on his face and defeated the Yanzhou Yellow Turbans several times. No one knew that Dongjun was a tough nut to crack.
There are even yellow scarves who dare to fight against the autumn wind.
Being so desperate, he wanted to know who his subordinates were.
At this moment, Zhao Yan, who was fleeing, had already arrived.
"I am Zhao Yan, the governor of Qingzhou!"
After taking a look at the Yellow Turban Army approaching behind him, Zhao Yan shouted in panic.
Hearing this, Liu Hong narrowed his eyes.
Qingzhou governor?
He didn't expect that this guy was so lucky. He was besieged by the main force of the Yellow Turbans from Qingyan and Yanzhou, and he could still come to Dongjun.
"Han Sheng, shoot him!"
Liu Hong said calmly to Huang Zhong, who was one position behind.
Although they are all in the same camp, if this guy doesn't die, how can he replace him?
What's more, it was Pei Yuanshao's idea to attack Qingzhou.
How could he disrupt his plan?
It's weird, it's blocking his way.
Huang Zhong on the side was stunned when he heard the words. He really heard what the man said just now.
This man is the governor of Qingzhou, a position higher than his own.
Although he was a little confused, there was no hesitation in his movements.
Nocking an arrow, bending the bow, shooting an arrow.
A set of procedures flow smoothly.
There was just a "whoosh" sound, and the arrows shot out like lightning, killing Zhao Yan directly.
Zhao Yan's eyes widened before he died. He couldn't believe why this group of Han soldiers shot him, a court minister...
After shooting Zhao Yan, Huang Zhong put down the long bow in his hand and his heart stopped.
Since he has pledged his allegiance to Liu Hong.
Then stick to the dark road.
What's more, the kindness of saving his son will never be repaid by death.
Not to mention shooting a court minister, even if the current emperor Liu Hong was standing opposite him, he would not hesitate to shoot him with an arrow.
As soon as Zhao Yan was shot and killed, the Yellow Turban Army appeared behind him in pursuit.
The person taking the lead was Pei Yuanshao.
Liu Hong and Pei Yuanshao looked at each other from a distance, and then tacitly withdrew their troops from each other.
The Yanzhou Yellow Turban Army, which had participated in the Battle of Dongjun, had long been frightened by the elite soldiers and generals of Dongjun.
As soon as they heard about the withdrawal of troops, they didn't hesitate at all. Each one ran faster than the other.
However, Zhang Rao, who came with a group of Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, showed a mocking look when he saw this.
"Pei Yuanshao, your courage has shrunk into a dog's belly?"
"Tens of thousands of Qingzhou soldiers are no match for my army. There are only a few thousand people, but they are so afraid!"
Zhang Rao glanced at Pei Yuanshao with disdain.
Then he shouted and led tens of thousands of Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army towards Liu Hong and others.
Pei Yuanshao sneered when he saw this.
"Seek death!"
Too lazy to pay attention to this guy, he just rode away with his elite men.
Zhao Yan is dead and his mission has been completed. The next step is to restrain the Yellow Turbans from Qingyan and Yanzhou and wait for Liu Hong's order.
"A bunch of chickens and dogs still refuse to retreat when they see a certain family here. How brave!"
On the other side, seeing this group of thieves advancing instead of retreating, Huang Zhong screamed angrily.
He directly led his troops to meet him.
Although Zhang Rao is the Yellow Turban Qushuai, his combat power is completely different from that of Huang Zhong.
After fighting for a few times, Huang Zhong killed him directly.
The remaining Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were instantly defeated when they saw this, and were directly pierced by the elites of Dongjun, and fled in all directions.
"Control the defeated troops and do not kill those who surrender."
Huang Zhong shouted loudly, and his voice spread throughout the battlefield.
Upon hearing this, the escaping Yellow Turban troops abandoned their weapons and surrendered one by one.
Liu Hong rode the Shenfu to Huang Zhong's side, with a calm expression and said calmly.
"Zhang Rao, commander of the Yellow Turban Canal in Qingzhou, killed Zhao Yan, the governor of Qingzhou, and was beheaded by Huang Zhong, a fierce general under my command. I will report to the imperial court to ask for credit for the promotion of the Han Dynasty."
"Thank you, sir!"
Huang Zhong clasped his fists in thanks.
A few days later, news spread to the imperial capital that Qingzhou Yellow Turban Commander Zhang Rao had killed the assassin Zhao Yan.
The court was instantly alarmed.
After all, this is already the second governor killed by the Yellow Turban Army!
"It's just a piece of Taiping Road, but it hasn't been paid for several months, and it also cost two of our powerful governors."
Above the court, the sickly Liu Hong looked around at the princes and ministers in front of him, like a furious lion.
With that violent look in his eyes, even the three most powerful men did not dare to look directly at him, all of them bowed their heads and remained silent.
Although Liu Hong is mediocre, he has already become proficient in imperial power.
Over the years, he has sold his official position and sold his title, but he has always maintained great power.
The position of the three princes changes one after another, which is enough to show the depth of the other party's character.
In this special period, no one wants to get into trouble.
Looking at the silent court ministers, Liu Hong felt indescribably tired.
The Yellow Turbans have developed to the current scale, and it is useless to talk about it now.
It is impossible for him to take the blame and take the blame.
The only thing to blame is the incompetence of these ministers, every one of them is a waste.
Otherwise, the mere Yellow Turbans would have been suppressed by his imperial army.
In comparison, the main force of Yanzhou Yellow Turban was defeated and the leader of Qingzhou Yellow Turban was killed.
The governor of Dongjun County, who performed outstandingly during this war, is the only result worth showing off to the imperial court.
Thinking of this, Liu Hong waved to Zhang Rang next to him and gave instructions.
"Liu Hong, the governor of Dongjun, has made great contributions to killing the Yellow Turban rebels and has been temporarily appointed as the governor of Yanzhou."
"Huang Zhong has meritorious service in killing the bandit leader, and is temporarily appointed as the governor of Pingyuan County in Qingzhou. The governor of Qingzhou will be temporarily replaced by Kong Rong."
After the decree was issued, Liu Hong no longer felt like going to court, so he stood up and left.
"Temporarily acting as the governor of Yanzhou?"
A few days later, Liu Hong looked at the imperial edict in his hand and frowned.
He didn't expect that he had tried so hard to kill the Qingzhou governor, but instead built a ladder for Kong Rong.
However, being able to win the position of Pingyuan County Sheriff was in line with his expectations.
As for Qingzhou, there will be plenty of time to plan slowly in the future.
Holding the governor's seal in his hand, Liu Hong was about to check the refresh entry.
A voice sounded in my mind.
【Ding! The host status is promoted and the entry system is upgraded! 】
[The upgrade is successful, the luck function is turned on, and luck values can be obtained through one's own reputation and status. 】
[Unlock: Expansion of the upper limit of entries, transfer of entries, refresh of entries, strengthening of entries, and bonding functions! 】
Liu Hong raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that a person with the position of governor could actually upgrade the system.
Check out the new features of the system now.
The upper limit of entries is expanded, and new entries are obtained on top of the original entries.
No one knows the effect of advanced entries better than him.
A golden entry can make his strength undergo earth-shaking changes.
If the luck value is enough, he can even add three or five new entries to himself.
Not to mention Lu Bu, even Xiang Yu was confident enough to challenge him.
The transfer of entries is to move the entries on one item to another item at the expense of energy.
The amount of luck consumed is related to the level of the entry and the transferred items.
