Chapter 207: Conferred the title of Xinye County Lieutenant
Liangzhou City, the territory of Xiao Lingxue, the fourth-ranked lord player in the national war, the female general Hua Mulan, dressed in casual clothes with her long black hair tied up with a blue ribbon, hurried to the residence of her lord Xiao Lingxue.

"Mulan, what's wrong?"

"My lord, the Qiang people in Beidi County, Anding County, Jincheng County, Longxi County and other places have launched a rebellion. The Huangzhong Yicong Hu, which is composed of Qiang people and Xiaoyuezhi people, has also started a rebellion with great momentum. The Qiang tribes near our Liangzhou City are converging and may march towards our Liangzhou City."

"Has the Liangzhou Rebellion finally begun?"

Xiao Lingxue is familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms.

Most players only know that the famous Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out in the Eastern Han Dynasty in 184 AD.

However, in the winter of the same year, another rebellion broke out in the Eastern Han Dynasty, namely the "Liangzhou Rebellion."

The Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down in less than a year, but the Liang Province Rebellion lasted for several years, and important figures such as Huangfu Song, Dong Zhuo, Zhang Wen, Sun Jian, Ma Teng, and Han Sui were involved.

The reason why the Liangzhou Rebellion is not as famous as the Yellow Turban Rebellion is that the general scope of the Liangzhou Rebellion was limited to Liangzhou, and the two main characters, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, did not participate in quelling the Liangzhou Rebellion.

"It just so happens that I have just recruited a group of elite soldiers and generals, and I can use the Liangzhou Rebellion to expand my power. Mulan, tell the generals to train the troops and prepare for war."

"Yes."

Hua Mulan arrived at the parade ground in Liangzhou City, and all the generals under Xiao Lingxue looked at her at the same time.

Hua Mulan was the captain of Xiao Lingxue's personal guard. She came to the parade ground most likely to convey military orders.

Hua Mulan glanced at the generals with bright eyes: "The lord has ordered us to reorganize the troops and quell the Qiang rebellion."

Zhou Yafu nodded silently.

"When I, Ma Wu, take action, I will definitely take the head of the thief general."

A burly man with a black face and a serrated sickle in his hand, he was full of heroic spirit, like a Qiang leader who was willing to sell his head for a price.

"Ma Wu, how about you fight me, Wang Tieqiang, for another three hundred rounds?"

Wang Yanzhang, who was also a general under Xiao Lingxue, glanced at Ma Wu.

Ma Wu had only joined for a few days, but he dared to steal Wang Yanzhang's limelight.

"Forget it."

Ma Wu was still frightened.

He had just been beaten up by Wang Yanzhang and was no match for him.

If he fought with Wang Yanzhang, he would only be beaten up again by Wang Yanzhang.

……

Xinye County, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. After Li Qian returned, he recruited soldiers, built large-scale projects, and developed his territory.

Although the Yellow Turban Army was pacified, the states and counties were not at peace. The peasant uprising armies such as the Black Mountain Army and the White Wave Army were still active, and the Wuhuan, Western Qiang, Southern Barbarians, Shanyue and other tribes were ready to make a move. The governors, prefects and players of each state and county held their own troops.

In troubled times, one should store up food and wait until one becomes king.

Even though Li Qian is the number one lord player in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he still has to keep a low profile.

Yuan Shu, who was eager to proclaim himself emperor in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, is a lesson.

Several large carriages arrived at the Tang capital under the escort of a team of 100 cavalrymen, but were stopped by Li Siye who was guarding the city gate.

Li Qian already has twenty or thirty famous generals under his command. In order to prevent players from causing trouble, Li Qian asked the generals to take turns guarding the city gates. Each city gate is guarded by a famous general. Such a big move is rare in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty.

The cavalry captain shouted, "How dare you! This is the carriage of Master Zuo, the Little Eunuch. Let it pass!"

"Thieves are rampant these days, how can we know if it's true or not? Let me tell you, before that, just wait patiently."

Li Siye's cold eyes made the arrogant cavalry shudder, and for a moment they dared not move. Li Siye was a top general, the most powerful warrior in the Tang Dynasty's Modao Army. He had experienced hundreds of battles, and thousands of enemies died under his sword. The murderous aura on his body was enough to intimidate this cavalry.

If they angered Li Siye, he could destroy them all by himself with just a Mo Dao.

Li Siye found Li Qian and said, "My Lord, the carriage of Zuo Feng, the eunuch, has been stopped outside the north gate by me. Should we let him pass?"

This is Zuo Feng, the eunuch.

Li Qian was deeply impressed by this eunuch.

When Lu Zhi was fighting against the Yellow Turbans, it was this eunuch Zuo Feng who asked Lu Zhi for a bribe. After Lu Zhi refused, Zuo Feng slandered Lu Zhi to Emperor Ling of Han, accusing Lu Zhi of holding his ground and refusing to come out. As a result, Lu Zhi was dismissed from his post and Dong Zhuo fought against the Yellow Turbans on his behalf.

Xiao Huangmen, with a rank of six hundred stones, was a eunuch who was in charge of serving the emperor and was under the supervision of the Shangshu. Although his rank was not high, he had great power because he was dependent on the imperial power.

This is evident from the fact that Zuo Feng's words led to the replacement of Lu Zhi, the commander of a large army.

What is Zuo Feng doing in his territory at this time?
"I pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Nanyang. The Governor of Jingzhou and the Governor of Nanyang reported my contribution to the court. Could it be that I have finally been conferred the title? I will go to greet you personally. Xiuning, go to the storehouse and get 500 taels of gold."

Li Qian changed his mind and came up with a plan. He asked Li Xiuning to get the gold, and then he took Li Siye with him to go out in person to greet them, thus giving Zuo Feng enough face.

"Humph, we are here on the orders of the Emperor, why are you being so indifferent?"

When Zuo Feng saw Li Qian bringing people out, he started to act sarcastic.

He is indeed a hermaphrodite.

Li Qian smiled and said, "I am sorry for my neglect. This is our local specialty. I hope Master Huangmen will forgive me."

Li Qian took out a wooden box from his sleeve and handed it to Zuo Feng.

Zuo Feng took the wooden box, opened it slightly, and caught a glimpse of a golden light. Inside the wooden box was actually a wine jar made of pure gold.

Zuo Feng's anger disappeared in an instant. He closed the wooden box and put it into his sleeve, smiling: "I didn't expect that such a small place like Xinye County would have such priceless local specialties. It's really beyond our expectations."

"Xinye is a land of outstanding people and beauty, and there are many more good things. Master Huangmen, please come in."

Li Qian brought Zuo Feng into the Tang capital and set up a banquet to entertain him.

Li Qian is a player after all, and he won't confront Zuo Feng head-on like Lu Zhi did.

As long as Zuo Feng is useful, he is worth using.

"I wonder what advice Master Huangmen has for you this time?"

"Haha, Lieutenant Li has made great contributions in defeating the Yellow Turbans in Nanyang, and has killed the bandit leader Zhang Mancheng and others. His prestige has spread all over the world, and everyone in the court has heard of him, haha..."

As Zuo Feng spoke, he laughed sinisterly from time to time, giving Li Qian goose bumps.

Li County Lieutenant?
It seems that the court really granted him the official title of Xinye Wei.

Although the Xinye County Lieutenant was only a minor official and was subject to the county magistrate, it was an official position recognized by the court after all, and he could mobilize the Han army in Xinye County to fight against the bandits.

If he makes military achievements in the future, he may be promoted to county magistrate or even county governor, and then he can capture cities and territories with justification.

The imperial court could not only confer official positions, but also attract talented people and prominent families to work for it.

If Liu Biao entered Jingzhou alone, it would be difficult for him to gain the support of the Jingzhou aristocratic families without the title of Jingzhou Governor.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Li Qian placed a few gold bars on the table and pushed them in front of Zuo Feng.

Zuo Feng pretended to be shocked: "Li County Lieutenant, what do you mean by this?"

Li Qian saw the greed in Zuo Feng's eyes and knew that he had found the right way: "I really want to make progress. The matter of the county magistrate..."
