Immediately, Ling Feng summoned Qinglong, Baihu and other five people, preparing to improve their cultivation.
Today, the Qinglong Society is responsible for monitoring the entire thirteen counties of Luzhou and eradicating all people or forces that are unfavorable to Ling Feng. Xuanwumen's martial arts schools are all over Luzhou, and the disciples he trains have integrated into various forces. All black and white gangs have to pay him a protection fee. However, relying solely on the cultivation of the peak Wuzong, they still did not have the advantage to overwhelm the ancestors of the major families.
Immediately, Ling Feng used his power to convert the attributes of his magic power, and condensed them into five elements of Yuan Fei such as Yi wood, Geng metal, and Bing fire.
The five people succeeded in condensing the Yuan Fei because the magic power derived from Ling Feng was extremely pure and comparable to that of ordinary late-stage Grand Masters. Their strength could be said to be completely reborn!
But Ling Feng's consumption is not small, equivalent to five fifth-level demon pills. Fortunately, his official position has increased when he breathes out spiritual energy, and it won't take long to recover.
Qinglong, White Tiger, Suzaku, Xuanwu, and Qilin felt the vast power in their bodies, and they were all excited. At first, they followed Ling Feng just to get food and clothing, but they didn't expect that in just over ten years, they had grown from an orphan to what they are today. The all-powerful Grandmaster! Immediately, they clasped their fists together and said respectfully: "Thank you, Lord!"
Ling Feng said in a deep voice: "If you want to thank me, just do your job well. I always have clear rewards and punishments for my work. If anyone slacks off and neglects his duties, don't blame me for being rude!"
Now these five people all hold great power, and Zhuque Hall is still in charge of intelligence. Restaurants and brothels have been opened in thirteen counties, spies are all over Luzhou, and they even have people from many aristocratic families. What those people say every day cannot escape their ears and eyes.
The core of the White Tiger Gang is to manufacture siege equipment and weapons, and also takes care of casinos and banks. Qilin Pavilion's private schools and academies have also opened in various counties in Luzhou. In the future, a large number of scholars will be trained to supplement each. Nowadays, there are many scholars from poor families in Qilin Pavilion serving as officials in various counties, holding extraordinary power.
These five major organizations have great power and are of great importance. If they slack off a little, they may cause heavy losses. He must give them a vaccination first.
Immediately afterwards, Ling Feng taught them the Five Elements Escape Technique and the Soul Forbidden Technique respectively. The former allowed them to save their lives, while the latter allowed them to conquer their enemies and strengthen their organization. Then, Ling Feng took out five magic weapons, the Azure Dragon Spear, the White Tiger Sword, the Vermilion Bird Sword, the Black Tortoise Gloves, and the Qilin Ruler, and gave them to them.
These five divine weapons were forged by Ling Feng with centuries-old black iron mixed with thousand-year black iron. They are all fifth-level top-grade magical weapons. They are powerful. Each of them contains a wisp of the power of the Five Elements Law. If you can understand it, you can condense your soul in the future. The path to the Dharma will be smooth. Moreover, these five divine weapons are exactly the same as their current weapons. They can be upgraded again in the future. It is not difficult to upgrade them to the sixth level. They can be used as natal divine weapons for sacrifice.
The five people took over the magic weapon and were extremely grateful, then said goodbye and left.
Subsequently, more than ten senior officials of the Qinglong Society arrived one after another. Although Ling Feng trusted the five people, he couldn't really give them all the power. He knew nothing about it. This was a taboo for those who were superior. These more than ten elites of the Blue Dragon Club are all confidants arranged by Ling Feng to be directly responsible to him. The lowest are all innately extremely skilled, and two of them are already at the Grand Master level.
Ling Feng listened to their reports each time, and then Yun Gong helped them improve their cultivation. All of them were promoted to the master level, and two others were promoted to the late master level.
Subsequently, senior officials from the White Tiger Gang, Xuanwu Sect, Suzaku Hall, and Qilin Pavilion also arrived one after another, and all of them were promoted to master level or above by Ling Feng.
In addition, the cultivation levels of Lan Die, Ye Xianglan and the Twelve Swordsmen have also been greatly improved. The Twelve Swordsmen have all reached the Grandmaster level. Lan Die and Ye Xianglan have also been promoted to the Grand Master level by Ling Feng.
Afterwards, Ling Feng continued to concentrate on his cultivation. As for government affairs, of course, they were handled by a large number of close officials who were engaged in Su Dingguo and Zhu Wenchao and Ling Feng.
These two people have now been subdued by Ling Feng, including the ancestor of their family and the ancestor of the Lujiang Sword Sect. These three great masters have all been subdued by Ling Feng. The method is also very simple. Three sixth-level skills, plus a soul forbidden method, will naturally make them obey.
Time flies, and several months pass in the blink of an eye, entering the fourth year of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which is also the fourth year of Zhongping. At this time, people in Xingzhou, Henan Province revolted. In August, Zhongshan Road Observer Zhang Chun rebelled.
Zhang Chun and others formed an alliance with Qiu Liju, the leader of Wuhuan, and looted Jizhou. They killed Gong Qichou, the Wuhuan Colonel Lieutenant who was guarding the Han Dynasty, Liu Zheng, the observation envoy of Youbeiping Road, and Yang Zhong, the observation envoy of Liaodong Road. They gathered a crowd of five million people and settled in Qizhou. In Feizhou. Zhang Ju claimed to be the Emperor, and his subordinate Zhang Chun claimed to be General Mitian and King Anding.
Emperor Ling was furious and issued an edict to let the soldiers and horses of the Southern Huns march against Zhang Chun. The Southern Xiongnu Shanyu Qiangqu sent his subordinate Zuoxian Wang and his cavalry to accompany Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, to attack Zhang Chun.
However, other tribes of the southern Xiongnu, such as Youbu Mingluo, Xiutugehu, Baima Tong, etc., were worried that Qiangqu would use the sword to kill people, so they rebelled and gathered millions of people with great momentum. Qiang Qu had too much time to take care of himself, so he had to give up his crusade against Zhang Chun.
In addition, Ou Xing from Changsha Road claimed to be a general, gathered hundreds of thousands of people, attacked prefectures and counties, and raised troops to fight against the Han.
In the fifth year of Zhongping, beginning in February, remnants of the Yellow Turbans in the Central Plains began to revolt. In February, Taiyuan Guo started an uprising in Baibo Valley of Xihe River and attacked Taiyuan Road, Hedong Road and other places. In April, the Yellow Turban Army of Gepi in Runan Road rose up again and attacked the prefectures and counties.
The rebellions came one after another, which dealt a heavy blow to the imperial court, and the great Han Dynasty was on the verge of collapse!
In March, Taichang Liu Yan had already written to Emperor Ling on the grounds that the world was full of wars and bandits, suggesting that the governor should be changed to the governor of the state to increase his authority.
Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was still hesitant at first, because this move would lead to the strengthening of local forces and the formation of warlord separatism, but at this time in order to quell the rebellion, he had to agree. Of course, the main thing is to confer the title of Zhou Mu to the clan member surnamed Liu. As for the others, I can only think about it.
However, things are far from over.
In June, Yizhou's Prime Minister Ma and Zhao Zhi raised troops from Mianzhou. They fought under the Yellow Turban banner, killed Yizhou's governor Quejian, and attacked Badao and Qianweidao. At the same time, the Banchen barbarians took advantage of the situation and attacked the prefectures and counties, looting wantonly.
At this time, the opportunity that Ling Feng had been waiting for finally arrived, so he secretly summoned nine thousand Shura Blood Guards to rush there.
However, Yizhou had not experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion before. Its troops and horses were depleted and the army's combat effectiveness was weak. It was defeated by the Yellow Turban Army of Ma Xiang and Zhao Zhi. It quickly occupied most of the two areas and its military strength increased sharply.
When Ling Feng's nine thousand Shura Blood Guards arrived, Ma Xiang and Zhao Zhi's Yellow Turban Army had already invaded nearby Yizhou, Jianzhou and other states.
Ling Feng raised more than 100,000 troops, 50,000 state soldiers, 50,000 county soldiers, plus 9,000 Shura Blood Guards, and invaded Jianzhou to confront Zhao Zhi's million-strong army.
