When Hedong County was recovered, most of the Baibo army surrendered, and a very small number were killed during the anti-fraud surrender process.

Since then, Liu Ming has dominated the five prefectures of Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, Liangzhou, Mengzhou and Liaozhou, becoming a real giant among the princes. However, in the eyes of the world, he has occupied the three prefectures of Hebei closely.

The news on the grassland is still very closed. Liu Ming strictly controls the news on Mengzhou and Liaozhou, and does not allow anyone to obtain the information that has been defeated by Liu Ming. At the same time, every year, he creates tricks of the Hu people going south, making the princes think that Liu Mingguang has spent all his efforts to deal with the invasion of the Hu people.

In the fall of Jizhou and Bingzhou, spies emerged within the former, while the latter was too many separatists and defeated them one by one. Under the guidance of Liu Ming, everyone thought that Liu Ming got the two states just because he got the advantage.

If you are underestimated, it is actually nothing. The key is not to underestimate yourself. When the two armies face off in the future, today's contempt will become tomorrow's nightmare. Perhaps, by then, you will not even have the qualification to dream.

"I should have executed you..." Liu Ming summoned the generals of Bai Bo's army and said the first sentence.

"I hope the lord will forgive me..." The general of Bai Bo's army knelt down on the ground, indescribable fear.

At this moment, they were fish, so they were naturally very afraid of Liu Ming's sword.

"Looking at you being the Yellow Turban lineage, and you are willing to surrender in the end, for Zhang Ning's sake, I may spare you death..." Liu Ming looked at these reckless men and said lightly.

"Thank you lord!" After learning that he would not die, several generals thanked him one after another.

"But the death penalty is avoided, and the living penalty is hard to escape! You have done a lot of bad things in Hedong County, which can be considered a grudge from heaven. If I spare you so easily, it will have a very bad impact on my future rule... I will dig for two years for mines and learn some military theories at the same time. I will not be a simple reckless man under my command.

Two years later, the official who has achieved success in his studies will be restored to his post; he will be demoted to the recruitment after learning something; he will learn nothing, and I will give you enough money, and I will not confiscate your previous money. Just be a rich man! Do you have anything else to say?" Liu Ming gave the final judgment.

"Lord, I have nothing to say!" Everyone thanked me and knew that this was the best result.

After all, they are now prisoners and no longer have military power. As long as Liu Ming is willing, he can drag them out and chop them out.

But what makes them most troubled at this moment is not that they have to dig two years of mine, but that they have to study for two years... They are just a group of reckless men. Before the uprising, they were all from the countryside, so naturally they didn’t have any knowledge. Besides, after so many years of happiness, how could they still have the intention to study?

The result is certain that if the probability is more than 80%, these guys can only be rich. The best result is that they are a very small number of people who have learned some knowledge based on their previous combat experience and are demoted and hired.

Seeing these people leaving, Liu Ming also started other work today.

Bingzhou has been defeated, and Diao Chan has become his own. Historical issues are simply ignored. Qingzhou heard that Cao Cao was interested in getting involved, while Xuzhou has already received help from Qingzhou and went north to Rencheng to help defend. It seems that he is planning to stay there forever.

What is unpleasant is that at the invitation of Kong Rong, Liu Bei actually gave up his position as the prefect of Pingyuan and went south to Taishan to become the prefect of Taishan. It is not difficult to see that Liu Bei saw that Liu Ming had occupied the three prefects of Ji, Ji and You, and was worried that Liu Ming would attack Pingyuan County, which was isolated in the north of the Yellow River, so he simply took refuge in Mount Tai.

Pingyuan was recommended by Kong Rong to be the prefect of Pingyuan, but he was occupied by Zhang He before he took office. The so-called new prefect escaped in shame after walking halfway.

However, his deputy Wang Xiu did not leave and went north to surrender to Liu Ming. Liu Ming knew that this guy was a rare civil official in history. What was rare was that this guy dared to suppress the powerful during his term of office. He did not talk nonsense, and handed over Pingyuan County to him and appointed him as Pingyuan Prefect.

Wang Xiu was not vague and took office immediately the next day. He then worked for a month and did not go home, so he managed the plains properly to express his loyalty. However, this is of course a later story.

Qingzhou became uneasy, but several great scholars in Qingzhou went north to avoid disaster. Among them, the great scholars Guan Ning, Beihai Bingyuan, and Le'an Guoyuan were all rare talents in governing the country.

Without further ado, Liu Ming personally welcomed the three of them and exchanged ideas for governing the country with them all night. After one night, he gained the recognition of the three and devoted himself to his own command. At the same time, Liu Ming's personal attributes, which had not changed for a long time, actually improved by 2 points.

Bing Yuan was appointed as the prefect of Liaodong; Zhong Yao was appointed as the governor of Bingzhou; Man Chong was appointed as the prefect of Hedong; Guoyuan was appointed as the prefect of Henoi; Guan Ning was appointed as the prefect of Liaoxi.

Zhao Fengchi, the governor of Hedong County, probably would have been there in his life. At most, he would be transferred to another place to guard the situation and make some use of his remaining energy. Zhao Yun soon learned the news, but just wrote a letter home and asked Zhao Feng to guard the area well. Obviously, he also realized that his brother had reached the peak of his career as a general.

Zhang He and Gao Lan have changed from deputy generals to main generals, guarding Yanjin and Yangping respectively, and guarding Yanzhou.

As time passed, Liu Ming's heart became more and more impatient.

Just after the Bingzhou was captured, the system received a prompt of meeting the upgrade conditions. Naturally, the system began to upgrade again, but it took two months to wait. One month had passed, and the remaining month was so difficult.

Liu Ming is very looking forward to what kind of surprises will it bring to him after the system is upgraded?

When he was bored, he continued to enter the spirit gathering formation and worked hard to practice. Huang Zhong practiced in the Wushen Pavilion for half a month, but actually killed the outer disciples of the Wushen Sect in the Fighting General. After this incident came out, many people went in to practice after a little free time. As for those who were not qualified to enter, they could only look at it and be jealous.

Liu Ming is not a great charity, and he did not disclose the Wushen Pavilion to everyone. Only generals or soldiers who have reached a certain level of military merit can use military merit to exchange for a certain amount of cultivation time, either for himself or for others.

I have to say that at this pace, I guess there is no need to worry about who will be able to do a great job. After all, the merits of a battle are all spent on cultivation. Without the accumulation of military achievements, there is naturally no possibility of promotion.

The system upgrade still needs to be slowly waiting.

It will take more than half a year for another book to be published on the Taoist temple.

However, there was good news from the backyard that was truly happy and at the same time, it was also a long time when people fell quietly. Yes, it was a very normal news, that is, Liu Ming had a back.

The first one to get pregnant was Bian Linglong, who has been confirmed to be two months old.

A major census was conducted immediately, and the result was that Xia He and Zhang Ning were pregnant, but only a month later.

For Liu Ming's power, this is great news. Even if Liu Ming practices for hundreds or thousands of years, it is not as good as that of his descendants.

The princes have descendants, which means that the power has a successor. Only a force with a successor can give the ministers a goal to fight. Otherwise, once Liu Ming dies, his power will be divided, and the huge forces he has worked hard to establish will fall into pieces overnight.

No one likes to see that scene, so he has been hoping that Liu Ming will have a future soon.

Maybe God really opened his eyes, and after waiting for several years, he finally got the news.

The only pity is that Liu Ming's wife Fu Shou is young and has no chance of getting pregnant. The three pregnant women are either concubines or personal maids. In other words, they can only give birth to children with illegitimate children... It's a bit dangerous...
