Chapter 111: The First Year of Xinghe
Weak and strong are never constant, otherwise there would be no elimination of evil, no lying salary to taste the courage of 3,000 Yue Jia to swallow Wu, not born in sorrow and die in peace.
The wisdom of our ancestors left the deepest warnings to future generations, but people still seem to forget those wise sayings.
When the emperor drove into Yecheng, whether it was the hundred officials who followed the emperor to move eastward or the original Youji officials, it took time to settle, so the sacrifice of the capital relocation ceremony was arranged before the New Year. There was also a steady stream of soldiers and horses returning from Hanoi County to Wei County, bringing back the families of hundreds of officials of the imperial court and accompanying them with royal craftsmen, scholars, scholars, monks, etc.
Moving the capital has never been a trivial matter, not only the emperor and hundreds of officials, but also Taixue and White Horse Temple, which are related to culture and education.
It's just that Yanbei didn't plan to move the White Horse Temple to Jizhou, so he issued an order for Hanoi Beiyan to lead troops to escort those Dayue clan and Han monks back to the White Horse Temple in Luoyang, and at the same time sent a letter to Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, asking him to send the head of the court traitor Dong Cheng to Yedu.
Even if the relocation of the capital has not yet been completed, with the emperor's entry into Yecheng, this is already a sure thing and cannot be changed.
Chen Liujun's battle report was sent to Yecheng in early September, Guan Hai led the troops to meet the soldiers and horses of Cao Hong of the Yanzhou army in the field of Chen Liuxi, although Guan Hai led the remnants of the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou to fight in various counties, and even killed the general Zong Bao of Beihai in the battle, but after all, he was used to plundering and wave warfare, and did not know much about the regular and dignified array. And against Cao Hong, he did not have an advantage in terms of troops, not to mention that his subordinates were loose in the pirate army, although Cao Hong was difficult to stop the defeat to the east at the beginning of the battle, but then a surprise attack made him lose a lot, so he returned to Henan Yin, urging Tai Shici and Jiao Touch to attack Chen Liu.
Guan Cheng's sailors almost emptied the eastern part of Yin, Henan, and wanted to persuade a few people to bring troops back to the north, but Guan Hai used the emperor's move to Yecheng as the reason that he said that he would move a few people to lead his troops east to Chenliu and attack Cao Hong and others. Then the various troops combined to the east, but on the 10th they exchanged troops with Cao Hong's troops, defeated their soldiers and horses, and then plundered the western county of Chenliu.
Cao Ren Xiahoudun led troops to rescue, Yan's army will disperse the troops, the generals of each department are proficient in plundering and interspersing, so that the Yanzhou soldiers can not take care of the abdomen and back, in the melee Tai Shici shot Xiahoudun's subordinate Han Hao, defeated Xiahoudun's subordinate division, the army collapsed to Cao Ren's town of Yan County, Yan's generals could not enter, had to surround the village and stay roughly.
Slightly less than half, Tanma reported that Cao's army returned from the south to help, and the generals then withdrew the siege of Yanxian and returned to the north.
In the letter sent by Guo Xin, the Taishou of Hanoi to the Yecheng General's Mansion, the number of people who were forcibly relocated to Hanoi was accurately recorded, more than 27,400 families, and more than 93,000 people. In addition, there are ploughing oxen and ploughing horses, and bad horses and lambs are not counted.
However, as far as Yanbei is concerned, it is difficult to think about the facts of gain and loss, although he took over to the emperor this time and got the dilapidated Guanzhong, but he also received Donglai and other lands in the south of Qingzhou for Yuan Shao to take the opportunity to take away, and he had no confidence to threaten Yuan Shao from behind, and he was afraid that he would not be stable in the coming year.
Even if he exchanged Guanzhong for the south of Qingzhou, Yanbei also thought that he had lost his capital this time. After all, Guanzhong is only suitable for garrisons and not for raising people for a short time, and Gyeonggi, the imperial capital north of the Yellow River, which was once rich, is now only suitable for raising horses and not for raising people.
If you want Guanzhong to restore the solidity of the year, Yanbei really has no way. One after another resolutions came out of his mouth, but he couldn't tell how much was right or wrong in his heart. Knowing that Guanzhong was in tatters, he still made it worse to have 100,000 Yin Shengmin in Henan, but what else could he do? The children who grew up eating the grain would sooner or later pick up weapons and stab their soldiers in the stomachs, so he could only move the people to the north of the Yellow River, which was more reassuring, and enrich the fields in Hanoi.
It's just that at the moment, there are too many places for him to think about.
"Gongyo, I want to ...... How about you go to Guanzhong next year? ”
In the former general's mansion in Yecheng, Yanbei's words were a little abrupt, but in the eyes of frustration, it was reasonable, the emperor moved the capital to Yecheng, and everyone was overjoyed, only Yanbei was overwhelmed by the backlog of government affairs and war reports for half a year. Fu Zhu stopped the wine bottle and asked with a smile: "The general is still reluctant to close the place, right?" ”
"It's reluctant, even if it's broken, it's still Guanzhong, the land of Longxing in the Han family, although it is connected to Ma Teng Han Sui in the west, Zhang Lu and Liu Yan in the south, and the state is scattered in the north, and Cao Cao is brave in the east...... But who can give up? The land of the eight hundred Qinchuan is fertile, and the city of Bashui in Chang'an is strong, even if the fields are barren now, and the people are gone! Yan Bei said, his eyes widened and slapped on the desk fiercely, "Those who have to close the door will determine the world!" ”
"The lord wants to grant entry to Guanzhongyi, but the emperor has moved newly, and there will be no chaos in March and May, how about the coming year? There are some things that the general may not want to, but it is not that they will not happen without thinking about it. Now not only the old ministers of the DPRK and China can't figure it out, but also the generals of Youji can't figure it out...... After moving the capital, the imperial court's surname Liu was still surnamed Yan? ”
Yan Bei frowned slightly, he worked hard to bring the emperor here, does this question still need to be asked? Immediately said: "The court of the Han family, naturally surnamed Liu!" ”
"If the general and the imperial decree are at odds, what should his subordinates do?" Fu Zhu picked up the wine bottle and drank it all, leaned forward with his arm on the desk, and asked further: "That Wenchen general, should listen to Liu and Yan!" ”
Yan Bei quickly pursed his dry lips with the tip of his tongue, he didn't want to think about this question, but when he said it in a hurry, he couldn't help but think about it. He said slowly: "The princess will eat all the food in Yan, not so." The generals all lived in Yan, and they did not listen to the orders of others. ”
Seeing that Yan Bei was still frowning, knowing that his mind had been reached, he said with a smile: "The general has the power of the army, but it is better not to forget Dong Zhuo's matter." Xun Qing has great talents, but he can't reuse them. If the general wants to go to the pass, he also needs to be appointed as a lieutenant and a lieutenant. Enrich Guanzhong with the soldiers and civilians of Baibo and Montenegro, and be the general to fight against Liu Zhang, the enemy of Ma Han and the south, and restore the fields in Guanzhong with the policy of Tuntian, and help the general pacify the world! ”
Yan Bei stroked his palms and laughed, and what he said was exactly what he thought.
It's just that it's too late after the three rounds of drinking, and after the frustration leaves, Yanbei stood in the courtyard and looked at the starry sky for a long time, with a gloomy face.
At the end of the year, the snow arrived, Yecheng built Zhongxingque, summoned Youji and the county guards, captains and generals to Wei County, moved the capital to the ceremony, sacrificed to heaven and earth, and summoned the world.
On that day, Chen Qun, who was watching the ceremony, wrote this in the "Brief Notes".
In the winter of the second year of Xingping, the emperor moved to Yedu, ascended to Xingque, and counted the former generals to open up the territory, serve Baiyi, determine the national thief, and accompany the rescue of the driver, and gave the carriage and horse, clothes, Lexian, Zhuhu Sixi, and Dengda Sima, the general court, and the book of the book. The generals of his subordinates were promoted to ten generals on the same day; The shogunate ministers, on the same day, also served as the prime minister of the country.
The emperor issued an edict to change the Yuan Xinghe, which was the first year of Xinghe.
——
The officials were tired and recorded, and the first year of Xinghe was the second year of Jian'an.
