Chapter 146 I Hope Xuande Will Not Refuse the Trust of the People of Le'an!

Soon after, Gu Rubing and three others, led by Ren Sui, rode their horses to the front of the county mansion. Then they got off their horses and walked towards the mansion. The soldiers guarding the county mansion had been ordered in advance and did not stop them.

Soon, Gu Rubing and three others followed Ren Sui into the mansion and entered the inner room.

As soon as he entered the inner room, Gu Rubing immediately saw Gong Jing lying on the hospital bed.

At this time, Gong Jing was a little older than five years ago, his beard and hair were all white, and because of the illness, his face was a little haggard, and his figure was a little thinner.

Seeing Ren Sui leading Gu Rubing and the others in, Gong Jing immediately struggled to sit up from the bed.

Seeing this scene, Gu Rubing was shocked. He quickly stepped forward, supported Gong Jing and said, "Prefect Gong, lie down quickly."

"I am ill and cannot give gifts. I hope Xuande will not blame me."

Gong Jing's voice was a little hoarse, and he raised his hands and said: "I am here on this sick bed, thanking Xuande for the thousands of people in Le'an!"

Hearing this, Gu Rubing immediately said: "How dare you? Governor Gong just rests in peace and recuperates."

"Xuande saved the lives of the people of Le'an five years ago, and now he has saved Le'an from the fire and water. I really don't know how to express my gratitude." Gong Jing looked at Gu Rubing and said with gratitude on his face.

"Suppressing evildoers and eliminating thieves is what you should do. Governor Gong doesn't need to say thank you."

Gu Rubing shook his head and said: "What's more, when we were in Le'an in the past, Governor Gong was very kind to my three brothers, and even gave him good horses as gifts. My three brothers had nothing to repay. I heard that there was something in Le'an." It’s difficult, and it’s even more impossible to sit idly by.”

Hearing this, Gong Jing's face turned rosy and he said with a smile: "As the saying goes, a BMW matches a hero. Such a good horse, even if it was left here with me, it would die in a stable. If it was given to General Zhang, it would end up with Zhang." Together, the generals will become famous all over the world!"

After saying that, Gong Jing paused, looked at Zhang Fei behind Gu Rubing, and asked: "General Zhang, are you still satisfied with the dark clouds and the snow horse?"

"Naturally satisfied."

Zhang Fei nodded, raised his hands with a serious look on his face and said, "Prefect Gong's gift of a horse in the past will be something I, Zhang Fei, will never forget!"

Hearing Zhang Fei's words, Gong Jing's face became even more rosy. He looked at Gu Rubing and then at Guan Yu behind Gu Rubing. Zhang Fei, with a look of emotion on his face, said: "Five years ago, Xuande became famous. It’s not obvious, but now, no one in the world knows the name of Liu Guoxiang!”

After saying that, Gong Jing seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Xuande, to be honest, I invite you to come in. In addition to thanking you in person, I also want to ask for something."

Gu Rubing was startled for a moment, then immediately said: "Prefect Gong said it's okay, you should do your best if you are prepared."

"Now the imperial line is out of control, the world is in chaos, the Yellow Turbans are rising again, and the sea is capsized."

Gong Jing let out a long sigh and said, "The Yellow Turbans are rampant in my city of Le'an. The three places of Liaocheng, Guangrao and Shouguang are now occupied by Yellow Turban thieves."

"I have no children. Now that I am old and sick, I am no longer able to handle county affairs, let alone send troops to suppress the Yellow Turbans."

Gong Jing stretched out his hand, put it on Gu Rubing's hand, and said with a serious face: "I sincerely hope that Xuande can take over Le'an County from now on, suppress the Le'an Yellow Turbans, and restore peace to the people of Le'an!"

After hearing Gong Jing's words, netizens in the live broadcast room exploded!

"???"

"???"

"What's the matter, you come out to help suppress the Yellow Turbans and beat up the novices, and you can pick up a county for free?"

"Is there such a beautiful thing in the world? Damn it?"

"I'm so shocked. Is this okay?"

Netizens were all dumbfounded. The barrage in the live broadcast room was like a waterfall, flying continuously and filling the screen with question marks.

Hearing Gong Jing's words, even Gu Rubing couldn't help but be stunned.

Gu Rubing came back to his senses, shook his head immediately, and said with cupped hands: "Prefect Gong was joking, Bei has little merit, how can he lead Le'an County? As for the Yellow Turban thieves entrenched in Liaocheng and other places, Bei should be the leader. The troops will destroy them, but Governor Gong will not worry about them."

"Xuande, I really give in to you sincerely, there is no joke."

Seeing Gu Rubing's refusal, Gong Jing immediately said: "The medical officer said that my illness is caused by overwork. I am already old. In fact, I have long wanted to retire and return to my hometown. But I really can't worry about the thousands of people in Le'an, so I stay in office." .”

"Now that I'm sick, I need to meditate and cultivate myself. It's hard to rest assured when I leave my happiness to others. Only by leaving it to you, Xuande, can I rest assured!"

"What's more, Xuande is a hero in the world. He defeated the Yellow Turban and called on all the heroes in the world to attack Dong Zhuo. His reputation has spread far and wide. How can he talk about his merits?"

Gong Jing said with great sincerity: "The people of Le'an have entrusted me with this, and I hope Xuande will not refuse!"

Hearing this, although Gu Rubing was extremely moved, he still showed hesitation on his face. He shook his head and said, "No, absolutely not."

Seeing that Gu Rubing still refused, Gong Jing showed a look of urgency on his face and said: "Xuande saved our Le'an people from fire and water twice. It is so popular that Xuande refused!"

At this time, Ren Sui on the side couldn't help but persuaded: "Xiang Liu, my lord has indeed long ago intended to retire and return to his hometown. Prime Minister Liu is a hero in the world and has a well-known reputation. Don't you want your lord to rest in peace and recuperate?"

At this time, Guan Yu also tried to persuade him: "Brother, since Governor Gong is sincere in giving in, I can take charge of all matters in Le'an."

"Yes, brother, Governor Gong has been sick from overwork due to Le'an affairs. Now he just wants to go home and rest in peace. Why should I refuse?" Zhang Fei also said.

At this time, the man who had been silent next to Gong Jing raised his hands and said, "Who knows about the reputation of Prime Minister Liu Guo in Le'an? If Prime Minister Liu Guo takes over Le'an, I, the Ren family in Le'an, are willing to do my best to assist him!"

Le'an Renshi?

Gu Rubing looked at the man who spoke. He still vaguely remembered that he had seen this man at a banquet five years ago. If he remembered correctly, he was Gong Jing's adviser.

Then Gu Rubing looked at Ren Sui next to him and understood instantly.

This Ren family should be a local wealthy family in Le'an.

Hearing everyone's efforts to persuade him, Gu Rubing frowned, but finally shook his head: "No."

"Xuande!"

Gong Jing shouted anxiously, and after thinking for a while, he said: "How about this, Xuande will temporarily take charge of Le'an affairs for me. If Xuande still doesn't obey, hand over Le'an to others, I... really It’s hard to feel at ease!”

At the end, Gong Jing couldn't help but cough twice.

Seeing this, Gu Rubing immediately stretched out his hand to support Gong Jing.

Seeing this scene, everyone immediately started to persuade him again.

"Brother, please take charge of all matters in Le'an for the time being, and we can discuss it later after Governor Gong recovers!"

"The yellow turbans are rampant in Le'an today, and Le'an can't be restored without Prime Minister Liu Guo. Prime Minister Liu must not refuse again."

"Liu Guoxiang saved Le'an twice from water and fire, and led Le'an in all matters. Who else can I do?"

Hearing everyone's words, Gu Rubing showed hesitation on his face, and finally sighed and said: "In that case, I will temporarily take charge of everything in Le'an. After Governor Gong recovers from his illness, if he is willing to take charge of everything in Le'an again, I will give it to him." Give it back!"

Seeing that Gu Rubing actually picked up a state and county for free, netizens in the live broadcast room were completely dumbfounded, and question marks flew across the screen.

"???"

"I'm stupid! What kind of bad luck is this? I thought Gong Jing was just saying a few words, but he turned out to be serious?"

"Actually, it makes sense to think about it. After all, Liu Caoxiao saved Le'an five years ago. Now Liu Caoxiao's reputation is growing and his reputation is spread all over the world. In addition, he saved Le'an again this time, and Gong Jing is older. It’s normal to want to be happy even if you have no children.”

"It's reasonable, but I can't accept it!"

Just as everyone was talking about it, a barrage instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"Damn it, brothers, go to Sun Jian's live broadcast room quickly. Sun Jian not only lost his family, he also lost his jade seal. I'm laughing so hard!"

"???"

"What's going on?"

"Sun Jian wanted to return to Changsha, but was blocked by Liu Biao. Sun Jian's family was lost! Sun Jian had no choice but to withdraw to Nanyang, but Yuan Shu stopped him and refused to let him pass. He forced Sun Jian to hand over the jade seal. Sun Jian had no choice but to hand over the jade seal, and then turned gray Slipping back to my hometown!"

"What the hell?"

"Isn't it too miserable for Sun Jian? If you attack Dong Zhuo, Zu Mao will be gone, and your family will be gone too?"

"I'm really embarrassed. Liu Caoxiao picked up a county here for nothing. Sun Jian will return to before liberation?"

Netizens in the live broadcast room continued to discuss, and many netizens left Gu Rubing's live broadcast room and rushed to Sun Jian's live broadcast room.

"Okay! Okay! Okay!"

Seeing Gu Rubing agree to come down, a hint of excitement appeared on Gong Jing's face. He turned to the man next to him who was wearing a robe and a crown on his head and said, "Ren Ni, I'm going to get the Le'an seal."

"yes!"

Ren Yi immediately accepted the order, turned around and left.

Soon, Ren Yi took the Le'an seal and returned to the house, then handed it to Gu Rubing with his own hands.

Gu Rubing looked at the Le'an seal close at hand, took a deep breath, and reached out to take it.

The moment Gu Rubing took the seal, the attribute panels of Ren Sui and Ren Yao also appeared in front of Gu Rubing's eyes.

Ren Sui is a second-rate general with no characteristics.

Ren Na is a first-class counselor with no characteristics.

Gu Rubing was not surprised by this. Although Ren Sui and Ren Yi were both generals and counselors without characteristics, they were picked up for nothing after all. It was better than nothing.

People like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Xi Zhicai had many and good characteristics, but they were only a handful in the end. The more common ones were advisers and generals like Ren Sui and Ren Yi who had no characteristics and no rank.

However, what surprised Gu Rubing a little was that Ren Yi was actually a first-rate counselor with a somewhat high rank.

Although Ren Sui is a second-rate general, because Ren Sui is still relatively young, there should be a good chance that he can be promoted to a first-rate whiteboard general in the future.

Seeing this scene, Gong Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The thousands of people in Le'an are in Xuande's hands for the time being!"

"Don't worry, Governor Gong, we will be prepared to live up to our expectations!"

Gu Rubing looked back at Ren Sui and Ren Sui, feeling a little excited, and said with an extremely serious expression.

Gu Rubing originally came to support Le'an County, but actually he didn't think too much about it. He didn't expect that his visit would give him such a big surprise, and he would pick up a large county for nothing!

Now, as long as you capture one more county, you can complete the first ring of the exclusive mission and obtain the force characteristic "Hero"!

Gu Rubing was extremely curious about the characteristics of forces. After all, Gu Rubing had never seen the characteristics of forces before.

But one thing is certain. Although exclusive tasks may have pitfalls, such as Dong Zhuo's exclusive tasks, Gu Rubing guessed that it was most likely to depose the Young Emperor and establish the Xian Emperor.

However, the rewards for completing exclusive tasks are definitely generous!

For example, after completing the first exclusive mission, the "virtuous" trait rewarded is definitely the strongest trait Gu Rubing has ever seen so far!

That is a noble independent riding area!

If there were no virtuous characteristics, no matter how good Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's characteristics were, they would never have been able to gain an advantage when they faced Lu Bu at Hulao Pass.

Lu Bu's combat power is definitely a famous general, and Lu Bu's characteristics should not be weak.

The reason why Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were able to overwhelm Lu Bu at Hulao Pass is that apart from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei being much stronger than in the original plot, there is another important reason, and that is that their own virtuous traits have become overlapping!

"Zi Min, when you go down later, you will tell Liu Guoxiang one by one about the current situation of Le'an." Gong Jing turned to Ren Min beside him and said.

"yes."

Ren Na accepted the order with his hands raised.

Then Gong Jing turned to look at Ren Sui and said, "From now on, you will assist Liu Guoxiang."

"yes!"

The two immediately cupped their hands and said.

"I'm sick and need to rest, so I won't accompany you." Gong Jing finally looked at Gu Rubing and said.

"Prefect Gong, please rest assured and take care of your health."

Gu Rubing nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Be prepared to say goodbye first."

After finishing speaking, Gu Rubing turned around and left together with Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ren Sui and Ren Ai.

After leaving Gong Jing's residence, Gu Rubing soon learned the general situation of Le'an County from Ren Na.

In the entire Le'an County, there are currently four thousand elite soldiers, all of whom are armored, including one thousand Qingzhou elite armor, three thousand Qingzhou infantry, and no Qingzhou heavy infantry. There are also two hundred cavalry and fifty Qingzhou heavy crossbowmen.

Considering that when the number of militiamen exceeds twice that of elite soldiers, they will lose the characteristics of the arms, so Le'an County's military strength can reach up to 8,000 troops.

Of course, even if this issue is not considered, Le'an County can only support about 10,000 troops at most, and Le'an's financial situation cannot support any more.

The reason why Gu Rubing was able to raise an army of 20,000 people, or maybe even more, was entirely because of Jian Yong, Han Hao, and his destiny-in-my nature, so he had plenty of food and grass.

In addition to the military strength, there are six generals and three counselors in Le'an County. Among them, the general Ren Sui is the leader, and the counselors are the leader Ren Nao.

If nothing unexpected happened, these advisers and generals should all be blank slates. At least Gu Rubing had never heard of the names of these generals and advisers.

"Since Liaocheng, Guangrao, and Shouguang are all occupied by the Yellow Turbans, that means that almost half of Le'an County is under the control of the Yellow Turban thieves?" Gu Rubing pondered for a moment and asked.

"Back to my lord, yes."

Ren Yi nodded, his expression a little ugly, and replied.

"Our army will rest for three days. After three days, we will send troops to Liaocheng to wipe out the Le'an Yellow Turbans!" Gu Rubing said with a cold look in his eyes.

Although Gu Rubing is only temporarily in charge of Le'an affairs, and the governor of Le'an is still Gong Jing in name, Gu Rubing can completely see that Gong Jing is truly giving in to Le'an County.

Even after Gong Jing recovers from his illness, it is basically unlikely that he will ask to take charge of Le'an County again.

Therefore, for Gu Rubing now, Le'an is already his territory. Naturally, the Yellow Turban Army is not allowed to run wild and must be eradicated as soon as possible!

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?
