~6 min read 1,162 words

After listening to Ju Shou's suggestion.

Su Li prepared to leave Yecheng and head to Luoyang City.

But at this time.

The Administrator of Changshan, Deng Song, sent someone to find Su Li.

After attacking Julu City, Deng Song had returned to Changshan Commandery to garrison.

Because as the Yellow Turban Rebellion intensified, bandit forces everywhere were stirring.

Not to mention other provinces and commanderies.

Within Changshan Commandery of Jizhou, there was a Heishan Army causing trouble.

According to the messenger sent by Administrator Deng Song, the Heishan Army had become active in Changshan, attacking cities and seizing land, and Baiyun Town was also greatly affected.

"It seems I must return to Baiyun Town first."

Su Li thought for a while; the Yellow Turbans in Yecheng were no longer a concern, so he immediately considered returning to Baiyun Town to wipe out the Heishan Army.

"General Lu, Inspector Wang, the Heishan Army is causing chaos in Changshan Commandery. The Administrator of Changshan has sent a request for aid. I must return to Changshan; I hope the two lords will forgive me."

Before leaving, Su Li bid farewell to Lu Zhi and Wang Fen.

"The Heishan bandits, I have heard of them too. Then the safety of Changshan Commandery is in your hands. When I return to the capital, I will certainly report your merits to the Son of Heaven."

Lu Zhi held Su Li in high regard.

The three heroes of the late Han—Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun—had all discovered rising stars while suppressing the Yellow Turban Army.

Lu Zhi looked at Su Li, Huangfu Song praised Cao Cao, and Zhu Jun favored Sun Jian.

"I am acting under the court's decree as Inspector of Jizhou, and I should recruit heroes to serve the court. Lord Su is a rare talent in our Jizhou. If there is a call in the future, I hope you will give me some face."

Wang Fen said, his words showing an intention to win Su Li over.

"I am flattered."

Su Li smiled, knowing that Wang Fen could not achieve great things, but since Wang Fen intended to win him over, he would give him some face.

Xu You, a strategist beside Wang Fen, was also secretly observing Su Li, using his unique "Qi-gazing" technique, and found Su Li to be unfathomable.

"This person..."

Xu You muttered to himself, his eyes narrowed, looking at Su Li and wondering what he was thinking.

Su Li left Lu Zhi's camp, leading Zhao Yu and the Blood-Red Dragon Cavalry back to Baiyun Town.

Ju Shou, Zhang He, and Pan Feng all came out of the camp to see him off.

"The three of you can stop here. It is a pity that we are all in different places. If one day we could work together, that would be great."

Before leaving, Su Li did not forget to win over Ju Shou and Zhang He, this time adding the simple-minded Pan Feng as well.

Hearing this, Ju Shou was still hesitant; how could he not understand the meaning behind Su Li's words?

It was just... he felt that Baiyun Town was still too small...

Zhang He and Pan Feng smiled: "The Heishan Army's influence is not much weaker than the Yellow Turban Army. I also have the desire to crusade against them, but I haven't received permission from Inspector Wang. Otherwise, I would definitely have traveled with Brother Su."

"Hehe, I am the same as Major Zhang. If Brother Su needs any help in the future, I, Pan, will definitely arrive overnight!"

"Good!"

Su Li nodded at the three, finally cupped his hands and said: "We shall meet again if fate allows. I take my leave!"

After speaking.

Su Li led Zhao Yu and the Blood-Red Dragon Cavalry away.

…………

Two days later.

Su Li led his large force back to Changshan Commandery.

"Lord Su, you have finally returned. The Heishan Army has been rampaging in Changshan Commandery recently. With our current strength, it is difficult to wipe them out..."

Administrator Deng Song of Changshan complained bitterly to Su Li upon seeing him return.

Since the battle of Julu, Administrator Deng Song had a deeper understanding of Su Li's strength.

He knew that no one in the entire Changshan Commandery could match him.

So now that the Heishan Army was rampaging, he naturally treated Su Li as his life-saving straw.

Su Li smiled at Administrator Deng Song and asked: "My lord, do not worry. Do you know why the Heishan Army suddenly started such a major campaign?"

"According to the information I received, it seems the Heishan Army saw that the Yellow Turbans and the court army were deadlocked, so they mobilized their entire force to take advantage of the situation!"

"This is not good..."

Hearing this, Su Li frowned slightly.

Lu Zhi was still cleaning up the Jizhou Yellow Turbans, and the major battle with the Yellow Turban Army had caused significant losses to the Han army, leaving them unable to suppress the Heishan Army.

If the Heishan Army mobilized their entire force, it would be troublesome.

You know, in the original history of the Three Kingdoms, Yuan Shao fought the Heishan Army for several years and could not completely eliminate them.

It was precisely because the Heishan Army defected to Cao Cao during the Battle of Guandu that Yuan Shao was attacked from both sides and ultimately suffered a crushing defeat.

However, this might also be an opportunity.

To rise in Jizhou, the Heishan Army was an obstacle that could not be bypassed.

If he could subdue the Heishan Army, it would be a huge leap for Baiyun Town.

"Okay, Administrator, I understand."

Su Li thought for a moment and said: "I will immediately return to my territory, Baiyun Town, muster my troops, and attack the Heishan bandits."

After a brief exchange with Administrator Deng Song.

Su Li led his large force back to Baiyun Town.

Calculating the time, from the moment they left Baiyun Town for the Yecheng battlefield to their return, nearly ten days had passed.

After ten days, returning to this familiar place.

Even Su Li felt like he had returned "home."

And he was right.

At least in this world, this was indeed his home.

At this time, Baiyun Town was still a Level 4 town.

But standing a thousand meters away and looking at Baiyun Town, one could see stone walls over ten meters high and several meters wide, as well as a large number of NPC troops patrolling on the walls.

Looking at the towering arrow towers around the walls, the majestic city gates, and the endless moat outside the city!

The Baiyun Town before him had already developed into a city.

The reason it hadn't been upgraded to a city was because he, the lord, had not been home.

Bai Hao and the others did not have the authority to upgrade it autonomously.
