Chapter 499

What a fool...

Seeing that He Jin valued the words of both Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu so much, Su Li couldn't help but feel disdain.

If He Jin hadn't listened to the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu and invited Dong Zhuo into the capital, perhaps the Great Han court wouldn't have perished so quickly.

Now that Yuan Shu was causing trouble, becoming a Governor wouldn't be that simple.

However, even if He Jin agreed, reporting it to the court later with the Ten Eunuchs obstructing it, he probably wouldn't get the position of Governor.

After all, he was currently equivalent to a commoner; leaping to become a Commandery Governor was quite a large span.

One must know.

Sun Jian had served as an Assistant Magistrate in three counties, followed Zhu Jun to pacify the Huang Jin in Runan and Wancheng, campaigned against the Xiliang rebels, and suppressed the rebellion of Ou Xing in Changsha, establishing so many military achievements before he barely became the Governor of Changsha.

"Since the position of Governor is somewhat difficult to arrange, I will lower my standards. I wonder if the Grand General is willing to lend me a hand."

"That is only natural..."

"The Magistrate of Zhending County was killed by the Heishan Army, leaving Zhending County without a leader. If I could serve as the Magistrate of Zhending, I will wait until I have established more merits before requesting the position of Governor. I will certainly follow the Grand General's orders. I wonder what the Grand General thinks?"

Su Li retreated to advance; firstly, he would become the Magistrate of Zhending, and secondly, once he established military merits in the future, He Jin would find it difficult to refuse the position of Governor.

Seeing Su Li take the initiative to concede, while also considering Yuan Shu's face, He Jin immediately felt relieved and waved his hand with a smile: "Hahaha, the position of a mere County Magistrate is as easy as turning over one's hand. In a few days, I will memorialize the Son of Heaven, and with your accumulated military merits, it will be no problem at all."

It's done!

Ju Shou's suggestion was truly not in vain.

Since he had already fallen out with the Ten Eunuchs, it was equivalent to submitting a letter of intent to the Grand General's mansion.

It just so happened that He Jin wanted to win over powerful clans and generals to accumulate strength and plot great things.

Seeing that Su Li only obtained the position of a County Magistrate, Yuan Shu no longer had any complaints.

However, he did not know that he had already offended Su Li.

Su Li glanced at Yuan Shu indifferently.

Behind him was a fierce general who seemed to sense the hostility deep within Su Li, his eyes widening and his aura flaring.

"Elder brother, there is important military intelligence from Liangzhou to report!"

Just as the atmosphere among the group became somewhat subtle, He Jin's younger brother, He Miao, appeared in the mansion.

"What happened in Liangzhou?"

"The Huangzhong Yicong have launched a rebellion, establishing Beigong Boyu as their main general, with Bian Zhang and Han Sui from Jincheng, as well as many extraordinary lords in Liangzhou, responding!"

"The Huang Jin in various provinces have not yet been pacified; how have the Huangzhong Yicong of Xiliang also started a rebellion?"

He Jin's smile stopped abruptly.

The Huangzhong Yicong was an army of the Great Han court composed of Hu people from the Huangshui region of Liangzhou, commanded by the Protector of the Qiang Colonel of Liangzhou.

But because the region was remote and the court's control was insufficient, rebellions occurred frequently.

As Hu people and border troops, the combat power of the Huangzhong Yicong was very strong.

Extraordinary lords?

Su Li also fell into thought; there were actually players participating in it.

It seems that with the start of the main storyline.

More and more people are starting to stir...

He Miao looked anxious: "This rebel army is in full swing, capturing cities and seizing territory all the way from Liangzhou straight to Chang'an. We must stop their advance, otherwise, the future troubles will be endless!"

The General's mansion controlled the imperial relatives; if the various military forces were not well-managed and it was reported to the court, it would easily become a handle for the Ten Eunuchs.

If they were impeached before the Son of Heaven, it would be difficult to avoid punishment.

"Dong Zhuo has broken Guang Sect and is from Liangzhou, familiar with the Qiang people. Benchu suggests the Grand General immediately recall Dong Zhuo."

He Jin had already lost his composure, and Yuan Shao began to make suggestions.

But at this moment, Su Li's eyes lit up.

The opportunity has come...

He took the initiative to stand out.

"Grand General, I am untalented, but I am willing to participate in suppressing the Liangzhou rebellion."

Su Li happened to be lacking military merits; now that the Xiliang Huangzhong Yicong had launched a rebellion, wasn't this the perfect opportunity to establish merits?

What is a County Magistrate?

If you want to be something, be a Governor!

As long as he establishes great merits in Liangzhou this time, why worry about not getting the position of Governor?

He Jin was not stupid; he saw Su Li's intentions and also believed Su Li was a brave general. In order to suppress the Liangzhou rebels, he said: "If you defeat the Liangzhou rebels, I will certainly request the position of a Commandery Governor for you, Lord Su!"

"Grand General!"

This time, Yuan Shu also had objections.

He wasn't targeting anyone; he just wanted to say that everyone present was trash, and he couldn't stand Su Li, who had only become famous for a short time, rising in rank as if he were riding a rocket.

He Jin waved his hand hurriedly: "My mind is made up. The Guanzhong region is the barrier of Luoyang and cannot be lost, otherwise, I will face great trouble."

"I will immediately memorialize the Son of Heaven, appointing the Minister of Works Zhang Wen as General of Chariots and Cavalry, the General Who Sweeps the Rebels Zhou Shen as deputy general, and the Governor of Hedong Dong Zhuo, the City Lord of White Cloud City Su Li, and the Separate Division Major Sun Jian as vanguards to enter Guanzhong and resist the Liangzhou rebels."

Under normal circumstances, He Jin would still listen to Yuan Shu's opinion.

But now it was a critical moment where the fire was burning his eyebrows.

Once the Liangzhou rebels were not suppressed.

He, the Grand General, would certainly be seriously implicated.
