Liu Bei was in Moling City and met with Sun Ce and others.

Sun Ce presented the national seal, bowed to the ground and said: "The minister is ignorant, and he wants to refuse the king in a corner of Jiangdong." The death penalty of this minister is also. Fortunately, His Royal Highness was gracious, regardless of the previous suspicions, the ministers returned, and the ministers were terrified. This pass on the national seal, the father of the minister got it in the dry well, and the dying had the words to dedicate the minister to the imperial court, now Yangzhou is attached, and this treasure is returned to His Royal Highness from the time. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled slightly, and didn't care about the loopholes in Sun Ce's words, but took a few steps forward, reached down with both hands, and helped Sun Ce up. He motioned left and right to take the heirloom jade seal in Sun Ce's hand, then held Sun Ce's arm, and said enthusiastically: "Bo Fu, your father and I have a good relationship. Although Wentai is gone, the legacy is still there, and I am very relieved. Thou shalt follow me into the king, and do not be worried. I have a heavy responsibility for you. ”

Sun Ce is such a general, Liu Bei will naturally not be idle. In history, Ma Chao surrendered to Liu Bei, Liu Bei was idle for several years, and Ma Chao finally died depressed, which made people sigh when they read it. The current Liu Bei has the confidence to appoint anyone, except for Lao Cao, of course.

He was in Qingzhou, and the new policy he implemented was almost the same as the original Han Dynasty. And in terms of land, he basically suppressed new annexations. At this best time to be unbroken and stormy. The Han Dynasty can be said to have been completely reborn in his hands. He was not afraid that any of his princes and generals would repeat it again. Because under the new system, they can't afford to toss any storms at all.

Sun Ce listened to Liu Bei's words, and his heart couldn't help but feel hot. And there was a little expectation. He thought that in the future, he would be an idle prince at most, receiving some money every year, eating and waiting for death. This is not the life he wants, he is still young, his heart is not cold, and his ambition is unpaid. Now Liu Bei promised it personally, but it made most of the worries in his heart.

When the ministers saw Liu Bei courteously treating Sun Ce, they were all relieved. If the new boss treats the old boss badly, they don't say anything about it, and if they don't do it well, there will be a drama of humiliating the lord and his ministers to death. At this critical moment, they were even more anxious than Liu Bei.

Now that it's okay, Sun Ce won't be left out in the cold at a glance, so under Sun Ce's care, their career won't be bleak. Of course, in the future, they have to work hard enough to integrate into Liu Bei's system as soon as possible.

With the support of a huge administrative system, Yangzhou's work has been advancing rapidly. In fact, it is very simple, each county sends someone to write a letter to the government treasury, and the household registration, fields, and property are counted as soon as the matter is over. The orders were originally appointed by Sun Jian and Sun Ce to the imperial court and appointed by the Han Dynasty. They didn't even have to change their official uniforms, and they continued to work when they were done. Anyway, Liu Bei didn't order them to be dismissed on the spot.

Only a very small number of places have changed, such as the positions held by people like Cheng Pu, Zhou Yu and others, because these people will be brought into Chang'an by Liu Bei, so after their positions are removed, Liu Bei's shogunate will begin to select candidates for appointment.

Similarly, the Yangzhou army was concentrated, and the defense of Yangzhou was fully taken over by the Han army. Sun Ce's troops will be reorganized in strict accordance with the system of the army under Liu Bei's command.

Old, unqualified, and newly enlisted will all receive a severance pay and be sent home. Because the scale of the war will be greatly reduced and reduced, and Yangzhou's future task is to restore social order as soon as possible, vigorously develop production, and recuperate with the people.

After everything was almost in progress, Liu Bei announced that Yangzhou would reduce the field rent for three years and calculate the payment for one year. At the same time, Yangzhou will fully dock with the northern policy, the reduction of the reduction, the exemption of the exemption, and the award of the award. When the news came out, the whole territory of Yangzhou was boiling, and the people sang and laughed, pouring into the streets together, shouting long live.

In fact, the happiest are the great families of Yangzhou. How many yeoman farmers can there be in Yangzhou, Liu Bei does this, and the ones who get the most benefits are not the families who have the most land and slaves.

The family members also supported Liu Bei from the bottom of their hearts. Because Liu Bei did not touch their property, but let them get rich. Compared with the Sun family, who only knew how to raise military expenses in Yangzhou, Liu Bei was simply the Holy King of the Ming Lord in their minds.

Not long after the end of the war in Yangzhou, Jiaozhou also immediately sent an envoy to Moling, to meet Liu Bei, and respectfully presented a letter from the Shi family.

Liu Bei thought to himself, Jiaozhou will temporarily let the Shi family take care of it there, after all, it is a bit far, and when Yangzhou is completely digested, it is time for the Shi family to return to the dynasty to take office.

So he replied to Jiaozhou, in which he enthusiastically praised the scholars, saying that they were far away in Jiaozhou, cherished their homeland, and made immortal contributions to maintaining the unity of the Han Dynasty and passing on the learning of the saints.

I couldn't stay long in Yangzhou, and there was news from the northwest. Duan Xuan and Koyi broke Kangju in the west, pursued all the way to the Syr Darya River, and returned to the division until the logistics were really unable to keep up. When passing through the Tianshan Mountains, in the event of a heavy storm, Koji Yi occasionally had a cold, and because of the long-term battle, he was sick. In the Western Expeditionary Army, there was a lack of medical treatment, so he couldn't afford to fall ill and died in the army.

Getting this news, Liu Bei couldn't help but be stunned. In the past few years in the Western Regions, there has been a lot of good news, and several generals are there, stirring up the situation in all directions, and those who are not convinced by the power of the Han Dynasty have basically been beaten down.

Chang Shi Dingyi also said in the letter last time that he was going to try to try the county system there. Now suddenly a letter came, saying that Koji Yi died of illness?

Since he left Yuan Shao and returned to himself, he has been loyal to himself, but he has a life and does everything. He was also a soldier who was pure to the extreme, fought all his life, and finally died in the army. It's just such a hard-working general, but he rarely talks to him from the bottom of his heart. It's a pity.

Fortunately, Koji Yi is victorious, not unsuccessful, which is also a good thing, after all, there are no regrets. On his deathbed, he pleaded that he be buried in the Western Regions, and that after his death, he would also turn into a heroic spirit and protect the land where he and his soldiers fought bloodily.

After Liu Bei finished reading it, he sighed, his mind was like a tide, and he went to the table, and asked him to posthumously seal Liyi as the general of the expedition to the west, and set the marquis of Xi, and together with the previous achievements, he ate a total of 10,000 households. With his eldest son attacking the lord, because the rest of the sons of Koji Yi have been released, and the two grandsons of Koji Yi have entered the court as Lang. He also asked the imperial court to send envoys to the Western Regions to deal with the funeral of Koyi, and the imperial court paid for the expenses.

The rest of the soldiers ordered Duan to simmer in the shogunate's main book, and sent the text to the imperial court, and then rewarded them. Liu Bei thought again, this time in the Western Regions, the thorn head was either eliminated or subdued, thinking that it should be peaceful in a short time, and the Western Regions should also stop the army. So he issued another document, leaving a group of soldiers to guard the Western Regions Changshi Mansion, and the rest of the soldiers entered the customs from the Western Regions to rest.

When the news flew to Duan Xuanxing's camp, there was a sudden cry of ghosts and wolves in the army, which was the happy voice of the soldiers. Men should walk rampant in the world with a sword, and they will not be able to do miraculous feats. This is the dream of every Han'er. Now, they are invincible and invincible across thousands of miles, and have achieved countless brilliant results for the Han Dynasty and won countless lands. They can finally go home.

The hometown that has appeared in countless soul dreams, fathers, old wives, children, and partners can finally meet again. Laughing and screaming, gradually someone began to cry again. The soldiers in the battalion thought of those robes who died on the battlefield and were buried outside the territory, and couldn't help but cry out with sadness: "The soul is back!" ”

"The Soul is back!"
