Liu Qing called out Zang Hong's name, which made Zang Hong feel more cordial.

Obviously, after hearing what King Bohai said, he had a good relationship with his father. For some reason, Zang Hong felt a little carried away when he thought of this.

It seems that it is some kind of honor to be able to hold the reins of the King of Bohai.

Dian Wei looked at this boy and thought he was very strange.

Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao also appeared at the city gate, saluting to welcome Liu Qing into the city.

"The last time the army came to Chenliu, I had never seen the city. It has been almost two years in the blink of an eye." Liu Qing sighed as he looked at the words "Chenliu" above the city gate, and then said to Gao Shun: "Filial father, I'm home!"

Gao Shun looked calm, nodded, and replied: "Thank you, Lord."

It seems that I am not so happy when I return to my hometown.

The group of people walked to the county government, and Liu Qing asked Zhang Miao and Chenliu County about the autumn harvest situation. It was already October, and Liu Qing had already seen many fields on the road that had been harvested. Is there an increase or decrease in production? Will there be a famine in the county?

, Zhang Miao should have already figured it out by this time.

"Thanks to your Majesty's concern, Chen Liu has not been involved in the war. The grain harvest has been completed. However, due to the drought and sweat, the grain output is not high. However, if there is no war, the grain price can still be maintained stable."

Zhang Miao's answer is very high-level. In summary, it is just right, neither more nor less.

"However, due to King Meng's support for Yuxian County, this year's grain production in Yuxian County is the largest in the county." Zhang Miao added, "Obviously, Zhang Miao also sent people to check the differences in Yuxian County, and finally pointed to the Bohai Sea.

king.

What they regarded as a helpless act in the past has become a code for the increase in grain production. Speaking of these things, Zhang Miao was really impressed.

Obviously, King Bohai is young and already has rich governance experience.

In fact, in the final analysis of this model, food needs to be cultivated intensively, coupled with the issue of production enthusiasm.

In the past, the Yellow Turbans were demoted to pawns, but they had a way to survive because of Liu Qing. In order to survive, their enthusiasm could be said to be full.

Similarly, in Jizhou, cultivators can get a lot of grain harvested from the vast newly cultivated fields.

"It has been almost two years since I left Yuxian County. During these two years of turbulent war, Chenliu almost fell into a war zone many times. Now that I have protected him, if I can continue to protect him from the war, it will be a blessing among misfortunes!

"

In fact, this is just a good wish expressed by Liu Qing. With Chen Liu's key position, it may be difficult to be alone in the future. Now in Liu Qing's hands, it will only make others more wary. After all, Liu Qing has not publicly decided to side with him at this time.

Anyone who dares to attack Chen Liu and become an enemy of Liu Qing will push Liu Qing to the other side. Not even Dong Zhuo, the Yuan family cannot bear such a result.

Zhang Miao made the decision hesitantly, but now that he had made up his mind, he felt more at ease. For some reason, he was shocked when he saw Xu Rong leading his army away and claiming that he would return the occupied county.

By subduing the enemy's troops without fighting, Liu Qing achieved the highest level of war.

At dusk, Zhang Miao held a banquet in the county mansion to entertain Liu Qing. At the same time, a formal surrender ceremony was held. At the banquet, Liu Qing sat at the main seat, and Zhang Miao held an exquisite tray with the prefect's seal and ribbon.

, as a symbol of surrender, Zhang Miao wanted to hand it over to Liu Qing himself.

Liu Qing stretched out his hand to take it, raised his eyes to take a few breaths, and then looked at everyone and said: "Today you all must bear witness, the land of Chenliu County is the land of my king, and the people of Chenliu are the people of my prince. If we cannot protect the territory and the people, we will This is the shame of this king!"

Then he turned his attention to Zhang Miao and said: "Zhang Mengzhuo is unparalleled in his justice and charity. I am very relieved that Chenliu County is in his hands! Mr. Zhang Mansion, take the seal!"

Zhang Miao stepped forward to take it back, thanked him, and then returned to the table.

"Filial father, from now on, you will be stationed at Chenliu and Liyang defense lines. I will hand them over to Jun Yi."

Gao Shun replied respectfully: "Here!"

"Let Gao Shun be the captain of Chenliu!" Liu Qing said to Zhang Miao.

"Just follow your master's orders," Zhang Miao said instead.

"Introduce these guys to me!" Liu Qing looked at Zhang Chao and Zang Hong said.

Although he had guessed it, formal communication still had to happen, and Liu Qing found that Zhang Chao's expression seemed to be too enthusiastic. He was neither a fanboy like Zang Hong, nor could he see any dissatisfaction. , this kind of look is like Guo Jia looking at fine wine.

He wants to be like me? Is he setting himself up as a role model?

Zhang Miao took the conversation and took the lead in introducing Zhang Chao: "My brother Zhang Chao, courtesy name Meng Gao, is now the prefect of Guangling. He once brought two thousand troops to Chenliu to join the alliance. He has been stationed in Chenliu for me. After the alliance was dismissed, he also stayed here. In Chenliu, he has great admiration for his lord!"

Liu Qing said he had already felt it.

"This is Zang Hong, the meritorious officer of Guangling County. His courtesy name is Ziyuan. My lord should recognize his father, Zang Min. He is now the prefect of Taiyuan under the king's command."

"Master Fu, your Majesty recognized me as soon as he saw me!" Zang Hong quickly took over the words, his pride beyond words.

Liu Qing smiled and said that the opportunity to acquire Chen Liu was created by Zang Hong because he asked his father to make suggestions. In the end, the question was brought to Liu Qing, and then Liu Qing and Guo Jia came up with the idea of ​​acquiring Chen Liu. Coupled with Zang Hong's enthusiasm, Liu Qing was very fond of him.

"Both father and son will be the pillars of the Han Dynasty, and they should set examples for the world!" Liu Qing said with a smile. On one hand, he praised the Zang family and his son, but on the other hand, he secretly scolded those father and son ministers who were just like dogs and ignored the power of the Han Dynasty.

"My lord has recognized this person, he is my nephew Zhang Su."

Zhang Miao continued to introduce that according to the establishment calculation, Zhang Su should now serve Liu Qing as his leader. Zhang Su paid tribute to Liu Qing seriously, and Liu Qing gained a command rate of 0.62 and a command rate of 65.59.

Regarding Zhang Su, he is unremarkable, his level is outstanding, and his highest attribute is command, but it only has 62 points.

Well, the scumbag led by 65 thinks that 62 is nothing.

…

Liu Qing stayed in Chen Liu for several days to get to know the stranger's face and Chen Liu's basic situation. In the past two days, Yuan Shao received information about Chen Liu one after another.

First, Xu Rong attacked Chen Liu with a blitzkrieg, which really shocked him. Hearing that Xu Rong was marching down several cities in one day and approaching Chen Liu, Yuan Shao was furious and immediately sent troops to attack Lihu, intending to force Xu Rong back.

Then Xu Rong really came back.

However, just after Guo Tu finished praising "the lord is wise", news came that Liu Qing, King of Bohai, had entered Chenliu.

Yuan Shao was stunned.

Why is there King Bohai everywhere?

Hanoi, Chen Liu, isn't he the King of Bohai and the Mu of Bingzhou?

Why not in Bohai County and not in Bingzhou?

What was he doing in Chenliu?

Guo Tu meant that Liu Qing might just be returning to Yuxian County to visit his relatives and passed by Chenliu by coincidence.

"My lord, the high-ranking general wants to see you."

"Please!"

When high officials came to see him, Yuan Shao instinctively thought about Chen Liu. The Gao family was in Chen Liu, and perhaps his nephew had more accurate information.

The senior official walked into the hall and looked around first. Seeing that Guo Tu and Feng Ji were both there, he frowned slightly.

Yuan Shao saw Gao Gan's thoughts and immediately said: "Yuan Cai can speak frankly!"

Gao Gan paused and really spoke frankly.

"My lord, something bad has happened. Zhang Miao has surrendered to the King of Bohai!"

"What!" Yuan Shao immediately slapped the table and stood up, his expression mixed with fear, pain, and unwillingness.

Even Guo Tu and Feng Ji showed expressions of disbelief.

"Yuancai, there is no room for jokes about such a huge matter!" Feng Ji said.

Why don't senior officials understand this? He had the same expression when he received the letter.

"This is a secret letter written by the head of the Gao family. There is no way it is a joke. The King of Bohai is also a person who has no profit and cannot afford to leave early. If not for this matter, how could he go to Chenliu County in person!"

If you don't have any profit, you can't afford it early. This title was given to you by Yuan Shao because Liu Qing cheated him of 400,000 stones of food and grass.

Now, Chenliu County has tricked him again. This weight is much heavier than 400,000 stones of food and grass.

"That's too much!" Yuan Shao hammered the table again, with a look of pain on his face. It was obvious that the hammer hurt his hand, "Chen Liu is Chen Liu of Yanzhou, how can he tolerate other people's desires? This tone,

It's safe to swallow! Is there any good strategy based on public principles?"

Guo Tu was silent, his lord was angry, and he obviously didn't understand the situation. The current situation is that the threat of Xu Rong and Lu Bu has not been resolved. Now it is cut off at the white horse, and the food and grass have been lost. If the food had not just been harvested,

We can still raise some money, but I'm afraid we've run out of food now.

Feng Ji was extremely calm and thought about all the recent events. It seemed that from the interruption of the food route to the plan to deal with Lu Bu and transfer Ding Yuan's army, Xu Rong had the opportunity to attack Chen Liu and become invincible.

At that time, he suddenly encountered the troops of King Bohai, and Yuan Shao moved to Lihu, so Xu Rong chose to return to the defense, and then Zhang Miao surrendered.

The news from the Gao family should be unmistakable.

After thinking clearly, Feng Ji said: "My lord, regarding the matter of Chen Liu, the King of Bohai should be the reinforcement requested by Zhang Miao. Later, Zhang Miao was frightened by Xu Rong's powerful army, so he thought of a way to solve the problem once and for all. He surrendered to the King of Bohai and asked for his protection.

After all, there is no one in this world who can be an enemy of King Bohai..."

Feng Ji found that he was short of words. How many words could he count? No! There were none at all!

Xu Rong was able to fight. He fought back and forth with tens of thousands of Yuan's troops, and finally gained the upper hand. Then he met the King of Bohai, and there was only news of his retreat.

"Zhang Miao, a pig and a dog, why don't you surrender to the Yuan family? Why can't I, the Yuan family, protect Chen Liu?" Yuan Shao scolded.

Seeing Yuan Shao's angry, jealous, and even somewhat lunatic remarks, Feng Ji shook his head in his heart, and Yuan Shao was changed beyond recognition by his jealousy.

He suddenly remembered Yuan Shao, who had been under He Jin's sect and was just a school captain, but he had the courage to act and face the eunuchs head-on.

It seems that Yuan Shao has changed.

He was so obedient that he was jointly promoted by the Yuan family and the general, and became the commander of the Central Military Commission, the commander of the Sili Command, the governor of one side, the leader of the alliance, and now he has become the shepherd of Yanzhou.
