Dongnae County.

A concave bay, in front of a fishing village, is the junction of Langya County in Xuzhou and Donglai County in Qingzhou. A small fishing village called Qingdao.

"This should be the boundary of Qingzhou, through this place, go west, you should be able to reach Linzi City in Qingzhou."

Liu Zheng vaguely told Zhang Mancheng, Zhang Ning and others according to some map knowledge that he could still remember.

Zhang Mancheng followed a few people, when they heard that this was already the boundary of Qingzhou, they also expressed great surprise, they went from Jiaozhou to Qingzhou, the whole process took half a month, and before they went from Qingzhou to Jiaozhou, they also took the waterway, but it took two months.

It is conceivable that if this water transport channel is really opened, how huge the commercial value is, of course, those who do not understand business, will not understand the value.

It's just that they were surprised by the shortness of the journey, and they are now convinced of what Liu Zheng said about supporting grain and grass, but they still have some doubts about whether this is really the boundary of Qingzhou.

However, it was Xu He, who was next to Zhang Mancheng, who took the initiative to stand up, and after looking at this bay, he quickly recognized it.

"Envoy, it seems that this is indeed the boundary of Qingzhou, I know this place."

Zhang Mancheng has a few people around him, who are local people in Qingzhou, they are important generals of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, and after Zhang Mancheng fled to Qingzhou, he supported Zhang Mancheng, so most of Zhang Mancheng's current subordinates are Qingzhou soldiers and horses.

Qingzhou locals, naturally have a little bit of knowledge of some places in Qingzhou, at this time when I saw Liu Zheng said that this is the boundary of Qingzhou, I pondered, and I thought that I had really heard of such a place.

"Is it Qingzhou, let's go down and see, Jiang Qin, you go and park the boat, and then be responsible for leading people to guard our ship, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, you land and go ashore with me, the envoy, I will accompany you to your stronghold in Qingzhou first."

Although Liu Zheng mainly came to Youzhou this time, he planned to establish a transit station in Qingzhou, and Qingzhou still had to come and walk around from time to time to observe and observe.

Qingzhou this place, in the Three Kingdoms period, in fact, the sense of existence, is not very strong, there has been no particularly major war here, and basically rarely changed hands, at first nominally belonged to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao occupied the land of the four states in the north, and later the battle of Guandu broke out and was annexed by Cao Cao.

Qingzhou also fell into the hands of Cao Cao, and then it has always belonged to Cao Cao's subordinates, and before Cao Cao took control of Qingzhou, although Qingzhou nominally belonged to Yuan Shao, but in fact, Qingzhou has serious internal friction, not only millions of Yellow Turban cultists are wreaking havoc here, but also all kinds of bandits, rogues.

Although Qingzhou is also a place where there are many brave and good warriors, and there is no shortage of food and grass, but the people here are also not highly educated, although it is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius, the state of etiquette, but there are also many famous bandits in history.

The most famous, the ringing horse thief, and the heroes of the green forest are all from here.

During the Xinmang period (Wang Mang's new dynasty), a huge peasant uprising broke out in Qingzhou, and the name of the rebel army was Chimei. Together with the Green Forest Army, the Red Eyebrow Army overthrew Wang Mang's rule. Later, the Red Eyebrow Army eliminated the original regime established by the Green Forest Army. However, the Red Eyebrow Army did not go to the end, they were destroyed by the rising Liu Xiu, and regrettably withdrew from the historical stage.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the vigorous "Yellow Turban Uprising" broke out in Qingzhou, and the Yellow Turban Army became the last straw that crushed the decaying Eastern Han Dynasty. Cao Cao's start was thanks to the 300,000 "Qingzhou soldiers".

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, the "Wagang Uprising" broke out here, and countless Qingzhou heroes rose up, gathered troops to oppose the Sui, and established the Wagang regime here. It's just that their power is too thin, and they later got a good way out after submitting to Li Shimin, the king of Qin.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was in Qingzhou again, where the Wang Xianzhi Uprising broke out first, followed by the "Huangchao Uprising". The Huangchao Rebellion eventually shook the rule of the Tang Dynasty, and for a time established its own regime, almost becoming the successor of the Tang Dynasty. But in the end, Zhu Wen betrayed the rebel army, causing history to enter the period of five dynasties and ten kingdoms.

In the Song Dynasty, there was another anti-** armed force here, that is, the famous Liangshan heroes. The real Liangshan Uprising was not such a big battle, and under the leadership of Song Jiang, they did not accept Zhao'an, but moved to various places, and finally were forced to surrender to the imperial court in the case of defeat.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, it fell into the hands of the Jurchen Jin Kingdom, and because they were overwhelmed, the people here organized themselves to rebel against the rule of the Jin Kingdom. This rebel army was named the "Red Jacket Army" because it wore red jackets as a mark. Under the external blows of the Mongols and Song and the internal echo of the Red Jacket Army, the Jin State was soon unable to parry, was defeated, and came to an end.

In almost every dynasty, there will be rebels and rebels against the imperial court.

But the result is self-evident, the thirteen states, here is the only place where there has not been a great unified emperor.

Of course, there has been a hereditary official who has been handed down here for more than 2,000 years, Yan Shenggong.

Yan Sheng Gong is the descendants of Confucius, inherited from generation to generation, Yan Sheng Gong is a privileged nobleman during the feudal society, the Song Dynasty was equivalent to the eight rank officials, the Yuan Dynasty was promoted to the third grade, the early Ming Dynasty was a product of civil officials, and then "the head of the class train civil officials", the Qing Dynasty also licensed to ride horses in the Forbidden City, walking on the royal road.

The Yansheng Mansion where he lives is the largest mansion in the country after the Ming and Qing Imperial Palaces. The Qufu Kong family was posthumously awarded gifts by the emperors of previous dynasties, and the pedigree was orderly, and the family was knighted.

Of course, those are all later words, the current descendants of Confucius are just a worshipping king, in charge of sacrifices, and their status is not particularly high, but they are not low in this Qilu land, after all, the Confucian family is still very prestigious here.

The famous Kong Rong is very famous here.

Because of the existence of Xu He and other locals, Liu Zheng and his party would not get lost here, followed Xu He all the way to the west, and then asked someone for directions, and it took three days to finally leave Donglai County and come to Beihai County.

Beihai County, located in the middle of Qingzhou, is also the most populated place in the entire Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban Army here alone, there are at least 100,000 fighters, once Zhang Mancheng and they want to send troops, Beihai will definitely be the first city to attack.

And the stronghold of Zhang Mancheng and others is on a floating mountain fifty miles outside Beihai City.
