"Damned Liu Feng, how dare you look down on me.”
In the prefect's mansion of Xiangping, the Liaodong prefect smashed his wine glass in anger again.
He was still considering whether he should agree to Liu Feng's request to suppress the Yellow Turban when he heard that Liu Feng had already left Dragon City with a thousand Dragon City cavalry and was heading towards Liaodong Subordinate Country.
He sent a letter of request and did not wait for his reply.
Was he provoking him?
The more the Liaodong prefect thought about it, the angrier he became. He said angrily,"Men, pass down the order. Immediately send 10,000 troops to intercept Liu Feng. If they resist, kill them on the spot.”
"Wait!"
Gongsun Du quickly stood up to stop him." Sir, you must not do this.”
The Liaodong prefect was still angry and said in a deep voice,"Why not?"
"Sir, Liu Feng's Dragon City Cavalry are very powerful. Let's not talk about whether we can defeat them first.
Even if we defeat a thousand Dragon City cavalry, our army will suffer heavy losses.
Two days ago, a hidden sentry in Goguryeo had sent news that the Goguryeon army was about to make a move.
Before the Outsiders started their rebellion, all the Goguryeons in Liaodong were killed.
If he was wrong, it should be done by Su Naocan of Liaodong Wuhuan.
He wants to shift the blame onto us and lure the Goguryeon army over.
However, he did not expect to be annihilated by Liu Feng and the Dragon City Cavalry before the Goguryeon army could even move out.
And the King of Goguryeo is no fool. Previously, we allied with the Dragon City Cavalry to wipe out almost all of the Liaodong Outsiders.
The King of Goguryeo is also wary of us, so he hasn't moved yet.
With the Yellow Turban uprising and the Great Han in turmoil, the King of Goguryeo might take this opportunity to invade Liaodong.
If we waste too many soldiers on Liu Feng, how are we going to defend against the Goguryeon army?
If they couldn't stop the Goguryeon army, how could they claim the throne?”
After hearing this, the Liaodong prefect's anger subsided a lot, but he was still a little unwilling."Are we just going to let Liu Feng leave like this?”
Gongsun Du smiled." Sir, please take a long-term view. If Liu Feng stays in Dragon City, he will definitely hinder our plans in the future."
After all, he was a relative of the Han clan who had entered the Han clan genealogy.
When Daren took control of several counties and became king, even if Liu Feng returned, it would be useless.”
"Haha, Mister Gongsun is really thoughtful.”
The Liaodong prefect laughed loudly and finally calmed down.
"It is my honor to serve you.”
Gongsun Du bowed and cupped his fists respectfully.
However, a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Before Liu Feng left Liaodong, he had already sent someone to bring the letters between the Liaodong prefect and Su Puyan, the leader of the Liaodong Wuhuan tribe. Among them was the agreement to divide the looted food equally.
At the same time, he had also pinned the crime of Goguryeo's impending invasion on the Liaodong Prefecture Governor.
He framed the Governor of Liaodong for colluding with the King of Goguryeo, hoping to use the Goguryeo army to attack the counties. Then, he would pretend to send troops to repel the Goguryeo army and take control of the counties around Liaodong.
Behind the crime was Gongsun Du's recommendation.
He was willing to get rid of the traitor, the Governor of Liaodong, for the Imperial Court. At the same time, he requested the Imperial Court to issue a decree to the governors of the nearby prefectures to assist in resisting the Goguryeo army.
When the crime was sent to Luoyang, he could be ordered to kill the Liaodong prefect.
Then, he would bribe the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court, and the position of Liaodong Prefecture would be in his hands.
He became the Governor of Liaodong and fought against the Goguryeo army together with the other Prefectures.
After defeating the Goguryeon army, he would then eliminate the governors of the various counties and gain control over them in secret, strengthening his own power.
This was Gongsun Du's true goal.
The Liaodong prefect had been his pawn from the beginning. It was ridiculous that the Liaodong prefect still had the dream of becoming a king.
Liu Feng naturally didn't know what the Governor of Liaodong and Gongsun Du were thinking.
He led the Overlord Cavalry and galloped all the way. After a day, they arrived at Piao County of Youzhou.
When they were about to arrive at the county capital of Zhuo County, they encountered a small group of Yellow Turban bandits attacking a merchant group.
The merchant group had been completely destroyed, leaving only a middle-aged man and a dozen guards.
Without a word, Liu Feng led the Overlord Cavalry and charged forward.
This small group of Yellow Turban bandits did not cause any waves and were easily slaughtered.
These Yellow Turban bandits were not strong, and even the regular army of the Great Han could not compare to them.
The experience and class change points he contributed were pitifully little.
However, the number of kills had increased a little.
"This commoner Zhen Yi thanks General for saving my life.”
The middle-aged man was saved, and he came over to thank him with a face full of joy and gratitude.
Zhen Yi? The head of the Zhen family?
Liu Feng's eyes flashed and he nodded." It's nothing. Don't take it to heart."
There are many Yellow Turban in Piao County. If you don't mind, follow me to Piao County.”
Zhen Yi's eyes lit up and he quickly said,"Thank you, General."
However, please wait for a moment. I want to bury the Zhen family guard's body first, okay?
They sacrificed themselves to protect me, I can't let their corpses be exposed in the wild.”
Liu Feng looked at Zhen Yi in surprise. It was not without reason that this person could strengthen the Zhen family.
He immediately nodded and said,"Sure, but it's best to be quick."”
"Thank you, General."
" Thank you." Zhen Yi thanked them and buried the bodies of the Zhen family guards with the surviving guards.
"Patriarch, that person isn't a Zhen family guard.”
At this moment, a guard pointed at a man's corpse with a bamboo slip in his hand.
The Zhen family's guards naturally couldn't carry such bamboo slips with them.
Zhen Yi wanted to take a look, but after thinking for a while, he passed it to Liu Feng."General, please take a look."
Liu Feng didn't pay much attention to it at first. He picked up the bamboo slip and looked at it. His gaze suddenly focused.
This was actually an accusation against the Liaodong Prefecture Governor for colluding with the alien races.
Who wants to sue the prefect of Liaodong?
Liu Feng thought about it and kept the charges. Perhaps he would need them in the future.
He looked at Zhen Yi and said,"This bamboo scroll is useful to me. I'll take it first. Do you have any objections?"”
"As you wish, General."
Zhen Yi didn't mind. After burying the bodies of the guards, he followed Liu Feng to Zhuo County.
