In Baibo Valley, the Fen River is clear and the valley is full of green. When the wind blows through the valley, you can hear a clear "buzzing" sound.

Returning to the camp, Liu Qing replaced Zhang Ning and took the first seat. The rapid change of position not only made Liu Qing feel a little uncomfortable, but also all the generals following Zhang Ning stayed outside the tent waiting to be summoned.

Because of Zhang Ning's investment, Liu Qing received a charm bonus of 0.92, and his current charm is 68.77.

However, because he has not formed a partner, he cannot obtain the intelligence bonus of Zhang Ning's [Ding Jing] trait.

On the way in, Zhang Ning told the main problem of Baibo Valley.

First, the number of refugees is increasing too fast, and food hoarding is being consumed too quickly.

Second, there is insufficient land to achieve self-sufficiency.

Therefore, Zhang Ning faced many difficult decisive battles, whether to reject the weak and whether to capture new lands.

But with the arrival of Liu Qing, the successor, these problems are no longer a problem. All the refugees need to do is lead them to Changshan, Jizhou.

Changshan has enough food in stock, and the Southern Xiongnu's wool has been harvested, so there is no problem of food for the time being.

At the same time, Guo Jia proposed that the White Wave Yellow Turban Army need to remain in Hedong and must be led by Zhang Ning.

As for Guo Jia's little calculation, Liu Qing could guess that Hedong County is a big piece of meat. One Hedong County can probably support hundreds of thousands of troops. Guo Jia thinks that he should set up a plot here.

Liu Qing didn't go into details about what it was. Anyway, Baibo Valley is relatively remote, and they haven't expanded their scope of activities, so they haven't sent Chinese troops to strangle them so far.

But it's hard to say what will happen next, because Fu Xie's case has been exposed, and the court will not allow tens of thousands of people to be armed and quietly lie outside Luoyang.

Hedong County and Henan Yin are still connected, only separated by a river.

"Leave?"

Zhang Ning was a little surprised after hearing Guo Jia's suggestion, and replied in a consultative tone: "This place has been discovered by the imperial court, and I will not sit idly by and ignore it. If I lead an army to attack, I'm afraid..."

Guo Jia, however, didn't take it seriously and said, "We'll wait until we lead the army to attack."

"This..." Zhang Ning turned to look at Liu Qing, as if asking for help. She could not solve Bai Bojun's problem, and believed Liu Qing could solve it.

Why did the military advisor want them to stay again?

"My lord, since there are still foreign intrusions in Hedong County, the court must give priority to solving them, so this place is safe for the time being."

"Then how can these tens of thousands of people cross Taiyuan County and be brought to Changshan?" Zhang Ning asked another question.

"I'm passing directly from Taiyuan, is there anyone who dares to stop me?" Liu Qing yelled, looking like he was meeting a god and killing a god.

Guo Jia smiled helplessly, obviously his lord's words were not very reliable.

"My lord, this is not Jizhou. The migration of people across prefectures and counties will not be carried out according to the actual population, and it is against Han law." Guo Jiadao.

"What do you think Fengxiao should do?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Taiyuan County has many eyes and ears, so we shouldn't take this route. There is currently a war in the north of Hedong County. We can send an army to escort us. We can leave Hedong County from the north, then pass through Lishi, and enter from the junction of Xihe County and Yanmen County."

Yanmen County, then enter Changshan County, that's all."

"So roundabout?"

Isn't this a detour of the same route we came from, once coming from the west of Dahe and once from the east of Dahe.

Liu Qing continued: "How to deal with food and grass on the way?"

"You can order Zhang He from Lishi to come and take care of you." Guo Jia said with a smile.

It is estimated that even Guo Jia himself did not expect that the chess pieces that were ambushed in advance could be used in a place like this.

Sure enough, Liu Qing noticed something was wrong when he heard Zhang He's movements, "Is Zhang He in Lishi?"

Guo Jia smiled and nodded, "Lishi is the first pass from the north to the south of Xihe County. How could we not prepare in advance? Zhang He took advantage of the opportunity to occupy this city to prevent the Xianbei Xiongnu troops from invading randomly."

"I asked where Junyi was taken."

Liu Qing informed him casually, assuming that he knew it.

"Zhang, General Zhang..." Guo Jia was not used to calling him General for a while. He was clearly a woman, but he still wanted to call him General. "Since your status as a saint can convince the public, you will lead the generals and the Baibo Army to station here, and write a letter the next day. Just get in touch.”

Zhang Ning glanced at Liu Qing and saw that he had no objection, so he obviously wanted to do what the military advisor said.

"Zhang Ning takes the order!"

"I think we can just leave it to Wen Yuan to escort the refugees. My lord should lead Zilong's elite cavalry to show off in Taiyuan County," Guo Jiada said.

What does it mean to show off? The group of people in the tent all looked at Guo Jia, obviously not very understanding.

Guo Jia was too lazy to explain and said again, "I will return from Taiyuan County with the lord."

…

The Battle of Meiyang has also come to an end.

They were chasing and fighting on the vast plains, and the battle stretched for almost hundreds of miles.

Horses and soldiers killed in battle, limbs and blood scattered can be seen almost everywhere on this land.

Zhang Wen and the generals gathered in Meiyang again. The rewards from the imperial court had been rushed to the meeting, but in the meeting hall, it seemed that the victorious party was not very interested.

There is only one reason. Although almost half of the Qiang and Liang rebels were wiped out, none of the four or rather two leaders of the Qiang people, Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou, as well as the two traitors, Han Sui and Bian Zhang, were killed. Catch.

However, Ding Yuan's governor reported a situation and he let Han Sui go, but in the end he let Han Sui go because of General He Jin's letter, because of Bian Zhang's head, and because of Han Sui's excellent psychological quality.

As for the blame, Zhang Wen really couldn't blame Ding Yuan for a while. Ding was originally a reinforcement. He fought from Bingzhou to Hedong County and then to Meiyang. The enemy had never seen him, and he was deceived by his cunning Han Sui. There was nothing he could do. .

There are currently only two people awarded by the imperial court.

Zhang Wen was worshiped as a Taiwei, which was the first person who was not granted the title of Three Dukes in the imperial court. It was a great honor.

What also made everyone astonished (and envious) was that Dong Zhuo, although he was not promoted to a noble title, was granted the title of Bingzhou Shepherd. This was the first State Shepherd granted to someone who was not a member of the Han clan since Liu Hong decided to establish a Shepherd.

Huangfu Song's Jizhou pastoral work is not included. This award was entirely due to Huangfu Song's outstanding achievements. Liu Hong had not yet had the intention to establish a pastoralist.

News of Liu Qing's reward also spread. Contrary to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was promoted without a title, while Liu Qing was promoted without a title. One was the Mu of Bingzhou and the other was the Marquis of Wuzhou, both in Bingzhou.

Liu Hong talked about what suggestions the ministers had and how to award rewards, but the final result was like this, which is not true and is thought-provoking.

As for the rest, they will naturally be awarded when they return to the court. However, the Qiangliang rebels have not completely withdrawn from the third auxiliary. Han Sui is currently gathering south of the Wei River. Apparently he is not determined to give up, so he cannot return to the court to receive rewards at the moment.

This made Sun Jian, who longed for military success, very uncomfortable.

So he drank alone at this celebration banquet without any reward.

"Don't be upset, Wentai. When the war situation is understood, I will personally perform meritorious service for you. Come, you all will drink from this cup with me."

After hearing this, Sun Jian undoubtedly felt even more uncomfortable. Sun Jian had achieved quite a lot in this battle. Although he did not behead the Qiang and Liang leaders, he still beheaded thousands of them.

When will the military exploits of thousands of heads be shelved?

After Dong Zhuo drank a full glass, he raised his glass to Zhang Wen again.

"Hahaha, let's respect Sikong, oh no, let's take a drink from Taiwei!" Dong Zhuo quickly changed his words.

I don't know why, after Zhang Wen was awarded the title of Taiwei, Dong Zhuo changed his past unruly behavior and exchanged cups with Zhang Wen, seeming to be very respectful.

Zhou Shen, Sun Jian, and Zhao Qi, the chief minister who came from Chang'an, didn't know why.

Little did they know that Dong Zhuo always recognized officials rather than people. He would not obey when Sikong led him, but he would obey when Taiwei led him.

Because Taiwei is a professional counterpart and is in charge of military affairs.

"Zhong Ying, you will go to Bingzhou to take up your post tomorrow. Let's have a few more drinks today!"

Dong Zhuo cheerfully raised his head in return and said with a smile: "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders!"

Zhou Shen, the bandit general, looked at the two people who had received the reward and felt that he was out of place.

In the battle of Meiyang, he faced the Huangzhong Yicong who was right on the line. They fought several times and did not take advantage. Even though the Qiang and Liang rebels were gone, they still caused him a lot of losses.

At the same time, his military exploits are also the least.

After all, Sun Jian beheaded thousands of people.

I don’t know what kind of bad luck Dong Zhuo had, he actually ran in front of the Qiangliang rebels and guarded Xi County to reap the benefits.

Sun Jian was also puzzled by this matter. No matter how he looked at it, Dong Zhuo did not look like a man who was good at using soldiers.

Soon, Zhang Wen also tried to satisfy his curiosity, because Dong Zhuo did so brilliantly in this battle.

He opened his mouth and asked: "Zhongying, you started the battle of Meiyang. How do you judge that the Qiang people are planning to escape?"

After a few glasses of wine, Dong Zhuo felt that he was a little over the top, but his mind was still clear. The time for the war was revealed by the young master in a secret letter, and he would naturally keep it a secret according to the young master's agreement.

"There is no opportunity. The Xiongnu were destroyed and the Xianbei fled. We just saw the Qiang people in a mess. We thought that the morale of the army must be chaotic. If we don't attack now, then when will we wait? Hahaha!"

After saying this, Dong Zhuo laughed again.

When Sun Jian and others saw this, their faces were slightly envious.

This reckless man is like a blind cat meeting a dead mouse, and he got it wrong.

Zhang Wen disagreed and continued to ask: "Then how did Zhong Ying expect that he would occupy Yi County first before the enemy?"

Dong Zhuo was stunned for a moment and fell silent.

How should I say this? I haven't been taught this by you. In your letter, you said that you should take the enemy's retreat route first. We thought that the Qiang soldiers must be fleeing to the west, so it must be right to occupy the west city first. We also

I didn’t know that it was Xi County, so I took whatever I had.
