For Ma Ji, Liu Qi has great respect.

is not only the kindness of the Ma family to him in the past, but also what Ma Ji did in office.

In terms of this Linzi defense battle, he knew last night that Ma Ji personally went to the city and led his troops to insist, so that Linzi City could be defended.

This kind of action of serving the people and being the first shows his character, which makes Liu Qi seem to see the Ma Fu who upheld righteousness in the past.

And it is precisely in the midst of the world's crises that the efforts and persistence of countless people have the soul of the enduring Han.

After welcoming Ma Ji into the military tent, Liu Qi looked at it carefully again, the lights were dim last night, and now I will see him again, Ma Ji, who is two years older than him, is now with beautiful hair and a pair of eyes, full of wisdom and perseverance.

Compared with a few years ago, Ma Ji is more mature and less sharp.

"Sid arranged last night to settle down in the state and county, which is very proper and more instructive, and the officials all praise it!

I don't know what Sid is going to do next, but he is going to the front line of the North Sea Country, and he is in charge of the war? ”

Ma Ji picked up the tea that Liu Qi poured for him on the eucalyptus and took a sip gently.

Nowadays, this tea is a scarce product, even in the county government, it is rare. But every year of age, Liu Qi would ask people to send some to Ma's, so Ma Ji could often drink it, and he became more and more addicted, and drank it every time he was sleepy. Yesterday night, I didn't sleep, and after a bite, I was really awake.

Naturally, he came this time, not only to rub tea, but also to see the attitude of fellow villager Liu Qizhi and send him to the state capital.

Liu Qi suddenly heard this question, and then remembered that he was in the state capital yesterday, and he did not talk about this matter with the important officials of the state and county. But going to the front line is inevitable.

Now Ma Ji came to ask, could it be that the Qingzhou Prefecture has other intentions?

Some thoughts flashed in his heart, and Liu Qi said: "However, after relieving the danger of Qi Country, I want to move forward and help Donglai and Beihai Country to be determined." Earlier, I also had an agreement with Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun. Yiqing, Yan handover, plus our hometown Taishan County, was invaded by the enemy, such as Gai County is difficult, so I will also lead the troops in Taishan to assist it, and solve the danger of the countryside! ”

Ma Ji was ashamed, and then sighed: "Xide is benevolent and righteous! The location of Du Township, including our hometown in Gai County, is actually thanks to the help of the Xide Dispatch Department, training the villagers, and then using the geographical advantage to establish a camp, and have to defend it.

But I don't know what Sid thinks, how about I wait for Qingzhou? ”

"Qingzhou?"

Liu Qi paused, and then he said aloud: "The land of Qingzhou has a vast area and outstanding people. I was in Shouguang Ling before, and I felt like this. If it is ruled by Ansheng, the potential is not much worse than that of other states in the world.

What's more, Qingzhou is located, the salt industry is abundant, if it is the development of sea trade, and the development of agriculture, water conservancy in all things, it will be rich and strong state! ”

Liu Qi was talking, and sighed a lot, he already understood what Ma Ji came this time!

With the court having no time to take care of it, Qingzhou has no owner, and the people want, this is planning to take him into the master!

Even if he knew the wishes of the people in the Qingzhou Prefecture and the people's hopes that he saved Qi and many other places this time, Liu Qi was still uneasy on the face.

And Ma Ji looked at it and admired it even more in his heart.

He got up and faced this fellow countryman, who is also the leader of the aid army, the minister of the Bohai State and the Han clan, and said with a deep salute: "Today's Qingzhou is tired, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and the king disregards the worry of his life, and leads his troops to help, and most of the counties in Dingzhou, what he has done here, Qingzhou people have witnessed.

Therefore, the state and county officials, represented by me, want to invite Sid to enter the state capital, where Anqing Prefecture is located. ”

As soon as Ma Ji's words fell, another soldier came to tell him that Qingzhou should not drive Liu Chen and other important personnel, and they all asked to see him outside the camp.

Liu Qi immediately went out of the camp to greet him, but when Liu Chen and others arrived, like Ma Ji, they welcomed him as the lord of Qingzhou.

At this time, the sky has already dawned, like Xun You, as well as Xiahou Lan who led the troops back last night, Wei Zhen and many other generals, they also witnessed it with their own eyes, except for Xun You's expression, the rest of the eyes were a little hot.

The main general Liu Qi has fame, has saved most of Qingzhou, and in their opinion, it is more than enough in terms of ability.

What is surprising is that Liu Qi did not accept it directly, but excused himself on the grounds of war and other aspects, and did not directly refuse.

After the morning meal, seeing Liu Qi leading most of the people to continue to move forward and go to Yiguo, Liu Chen, Ma Ji and others sighed.

Liu Xide is really a man of high morality!

Regardless of fame and fortune, but they are bent on quelling the rebellion in the prefecture and county, and An Limin, a great man in this group, if he does not govern for Qingzhou, it is the responsibility of their group of government members!

Liu Chen has already decided in his heart that if Beihai is peaceful and Donglai County is saved, when Liu Qi leads his troops to pass by next time, he will lead the government staff to invite him again.

Now, the main task of the state government is to arrange the forces of other places in Qingzhou to ensure the supply of grain and grass, and this matter is also one of the focuses of last night's deliberations.

A day later, early in the morning.

The cold wind whistled in his ears, Liu Qi was equipped with a sword, riding on a horse and looking at the outline of Yiguo City that was faintly visible in front of him, as if he saw the time when his leadership was also dealing with the rebels. It's just that today's Yiguo City is taller than back then, and the Han flag planted on it shows the perseverance of these days.

Zhao Yunzhi's ministry has successfully taken Guangxian County since last night's summons.

Now, with the addition of Yiguo and Shouguang in the north, the former protective barrier has been formed again.

Only this time, the number of rebels facing is three times that of two years ago. But at the same time, the troops brought by him Liu Qi this time, including the integrated Qingzhou army, were more than 20 times that of that year.

Coupled with Xun You, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Lan, Wei Zhen and other generals, the confidence is actually more sufficient than back then. The remaining Yellow Turban Army in the land of Qingzhou, if they don't want to be attached, then fight them!

Just when Liu Qi arrived at the county seat of Yiguo, Shouguang Lingye Shou, guarded the county seat with the county lieutenant Li Jin, and his own people led the men and horses to the south, and sent grain and grass to the army.

The news of the great victory in the Battle of Linzi had spread from Qi to most of Qingzhou yesterday.

Nearly 40,000 troops, defeating more than 100,000 rebels, this record is also rare. What's more, more than half of the men and horses led by Liu Qi are composed of soldiers, among which there are elites, less than 20,000 people.

The spread of the war situation in this period also gave strength to the officials and people of all parties in the Qingzhou area. Ye Shou learned that the late lord Liu Qi was about to go to Yiguo, so he quickly came to visit.

The great change in Shouguang in the past two years is that in the face of the locust plague, he can deal with it with ease, as well as the victory of the local guards, thanks to Liu Qi's decree here.

When the industry life rate arrived, when Liu Qide reported the time, he quickly went out of the city to greet him.

Over the years, Ye Shou has been governed by Shouguang, and he has already heard from his younger brother Liu Ji and Zhuge Jin, and his actions are not in vain for him to promote them back then.
