Zhao Feng's feet didn't even touch the ground.
On the other side, the Governor of Hedong, Wang Yun, was shocked when he found out that all his 1,000 soldiers had been killed.
He was very calm. After scolding Wei Bao for being useless, he began to report the matter to Luoyang.
In the officialdom, an old fox like Wang Yun definitely knew how to play.
Wang Yun directly wrote a memorial and sent it to Luoyang.
However, he didn't directly say how many soldiers Zhao Feng had, instead saying that they were strong.
? Moreover, he added many crimes to Zhao Feng's list.
? For example, the refugees from the Fen River were placed on Zhao Feng's head, saying that Zhao Feng went to the village to rob, causing the number of refugees to increase.
He also said that a portion of the tax that the government wanted to send to Luoyang had been taken by Zhao Feng.
There was also the funeral expenses for the 1,500 soldiers. He hoped that the Ministry of Personnel Affairs would handle it because there were too many refugees.
The Hedong Prefecture could no longer afford the funeral expenses.
He hoped that the Bureau of Military Personnel would quickly send their elite troops to kill Zhao Feng and company.
Wang Yun said that he still had 4,000 soldiers to assist the Luoyang Central Army.
Look, what is a wily old fox?
This was a true official expert.
Where money could be demanded, money would be demanded. Where corruption could be committed, corruption would be committed.
Why did Wang Yun assist the army sent by Luoyang?
Wang Yun knew that Zhao Feng had raided the Wei Family and that there was a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry on Mount White Wave.
If he met a general who was jackals of the same tribe as him, he could still get a huge sum of money. Wouldn't that be great?
This was not the end.
After Wang Yun finished writing the memorial to Liu Hong, he also wrote a letter to Yuan Kui.
The letter stated that Zhao Feng's group only had a thousand people.
This was a great opportunity to make contributions and let Yuan Kui grasp it to get the right to lead the army.
Yuan Kui was an old man in his sixties, and as the Grand Tutor, he naturally could not lead the army.
However, his two nephews, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, were both generals.
Yuan Shu was currently a general of the Tiger Troop.
Yuan Shao was currently a lieutenant.
To put it this way, in Wang Yun's eyes, this was a free credit. No matter who led the Central Army, could they not deal with a thousand bandits?
Since anyone could lead the army, it would be good for Wang Yun to express goodwill in advance and let the Yuan family have a background.
This was Wang Yun's flirtatious look at the Yuan family.
When something good happened to Yuan Kui, how could he not think of Wang Yun?
Although Wang Yun was born in a noble family, he was no different from a child in open-crotch pants in front of the Yuan family, which had four generations and three dukes.
The Wang family wasn't considered a big family. If they were, Wang Yun wouldn't be in his fifties and still be the prefect of Hedong.
The truly powerful families were all in Luoyang.
People like Wang Yun, whose family background was not deep, would be sent to other places to hold local official positions.
For example, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.
They weren't too old. One was already a Zhonglang General, and the other was a Si Li Lieutenant.
Especially Yuan Shu, if he was promoted any higher, he would be one of the nine ministers.
Although Yuan Shao was lagging behind in terms of official positions, he was not far behind.
After reaching the position of nine ministers, he would have to endure a little longer. The next step would be the Shangshu Ling, or directly the three dukes.
This was the power of the Yuan family.
The Yuan Family's people did not need to leave Luoyang at all.
Just by accumulating experience, he could reach the position of the three dukes without any credit.
Many people would say that Yuan Shao was stronger than Yuan Shu, saying that Yuan Shao was more capable.
However, at this stage, it was useless. Yuan Shu's official position was higher than Yuan Shao's.
It was not an exaggeration to say that Yuan Shu, as the eldest son of Yuan Feng, could basically sit and become one of the three public officials after entering the officialdom.
As for Yuan Shao, he was originally a concubine's son.
He was adopted by Yuan Cheng, but don't forget that Yuan Cheng was only a general of the left, and his official position wasn't high.
In terms of power and connections, he couldn't compare to Yuan Feng, who was a Sikong.
Moreover, Yuan Cheng died early and did not help Yuan Shao much at all.
In other words, Yuan Feng's connections, power, and all other resources belonged to Yuan Shu.
Although Yuan Shao's current achievements were related to his family background, it was not too big. He relied more on his own ability.
Therefore, it was not difficult to understand the difference in their official positions.
In Luoyang, as long as one was an official and knew Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, they would know that Yuan Shao was definitely stronger in terms of ability.
Yuan Shao, who was known as the role model of the current era, was a rather perfect figure.
In front of the mansion, there was a heavy traffic. Only celebrities from the sea could meet them. It was not an ordinary busy day.
They were even actively involved in helping the aristocrats who were suffering from the ban.
That reputation, if one didn't boast, was the number one person among the younger generation in Luoyang.
Yuan Shu and Cao Cao were two levels lower than Yuan Shao.
……
Inside the Luoyang Imperial Palace.
Liu Hong, who was in a high position, had a pale face and a sickly expression. It was unknown if it was because he had indulged in too much sex.
At this moment, Liu Hong was furious.
"Trash, all of you are trash."
"The Black Mountain Army in Bing Province couldn't be dealt with. Now, even the Yellow Turban remnants in Hedong County can't be dealt with?”
"A bunch of bandits. That Wang Yun actually wants the Central Army to go out and quell the rebellion?”
"Are the five to six thousand soldiers of Hedong Prefecture all useless? Hedong County needed so much military supplies every year, and the county soldiers were almost as well-equipped as the central army, yet they couldn't even deal with a few bandits?”
"You're really infuriating me."
Yuan Kui stood up calmly and said,""Your Majesty, I think Wang Yun did the right thing.”
"Wang Yun now has four thousand county soldiers, which can intimidate the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army.”
"But if we act rashly and the 4,000 soldiers are defeated, what should we do? Even An Yi City would be in danger.”
"Wang Yun's request for the Central Army to move out is actually the safest way.”
Hearing Yuan Kui's words, Liu Hong calmed down a little.
"Grand Tutor Yuan, do you think we should send the Central Army?”
"Your Majesty, I think we should, and we should send more soldiers.”
"We must let the people of Hedong know that His Majesty has not forgotten them.”
"At the same time, we can also intimidate the other bandits so that they won't dare to challenge our authority.”
Liu Hong nodded." Grand Tutor Yuan is right. I wonder which general is willing to lead the army to Hedong County?”
