Chapter 354: Moving the capital to Chang'an and the Battle of Kaifeng

Chapter 354: The Battle of Kaifeng, Chang'an, where the capital was moved

After the end of the court meeting, the three princes and nine ministers and some ministers stayed to discuss whether to move the capital or not, and whether Emperor Gaozu's strategy to break the enemy was feasible.

However, what made the ministers feel incredible was that the three princes and nine secretaries were basically against moving the capital, but after this private discussion, they all tacitly agreed to move the capital.

What's going on?

Why are all the adults fooling around with Your Majesty?

The officials who were not left behind couldn't figure it out, and the officials who stayed behind were also puzzled.

No one naively thinks that the plan of Gaozu in His Majesty's mouth is really Gaozu's dream. But who proposed such a bold plan to His Majesty?

The Han Dynasty is not a stupid person, so he can naturally see whether the "Gaozu plan" is feasible or not, although the risk is great, but for the current Han Dynasty, it is indeed the last ray of life, so how can he oppose it.

With the consent of the courtiers, the relocation of the capital was also a foregone conclusion.

This relocation of the capital is different from the past, in addition to the relocation of administrative institutions, the most relocation of the Luoyang Imperial Court is grain, and then the relocation of major families.

In times of war, in order to win the war, all the institutions of the state have to serve the war, and food is naturally strictly controlled.

Whether it is the Han or the Yellow Turban, the reserves of ordinary people are basically expropriated, and only basic rations are allowed to be kept, and the necessary labor will be forcibly recruited.

Doing so will greatly lose the hearts of the people, but it has to be so, after all, if the battle of gambling on the country is lost, the country will be destroyed, what is the use of wanting the people's hearts at that time?

The Han Dynasty built two super-large grain depots in Sili, one each in Sizhou and Yongzhou, respectively in Chang'an and Hongnong.

The reason why the court did not build the grain depot in Luoyang seems to have a premonition that if the division cannot be defended, it will be more convenient to carry grain and grass from Hongnong to Guanzhong.

After the order to move the capital was issued, it was not the ordinary people who were most affected, but the Luoyang family.

The imperial court did not force the people to move the capital together, nor did it force the family to follow, but the family had to go to Chang'an.

The common people did not have the ability to go alone, so if the imperial court did not force the migration, the people would naturally not leave the land where their ancestors lived.

The big families are different, they have the ability to migrate.

Luoyang now gathers most of the world's families, and they who abandoned their family property and came to Luoyang are already seriously injured, and after going to Guanzhong, they will definitely be jointly exploited by the local families.

Therefore, it is still difficult to go to Chang'an, but it is not good not to move.

They who fled to Luoyang have already been on the death list of the Yellow Turban, and once Luoyang is breached, only death awaits them, so they can only go to Chang'an with the imperial court.

This time the capital was moved, and the imperial court didn't want to make a big move, but with the addition of the family, the migration team also became huge.

Sili is composed of Guanzhong and Heluo, Heluo is Sizhou, and there are four counties, namely Henan Yin, Hanoi, Hedong and Hongnong.

Qianli Guanzhong is Yongzhou, and there are three counties, namely Jing Zhaoyin, Right Fufeng and Left Feng Ling.

Today's Yongzhou is no longer Guanzhong in the Qin and Han dynasties, and its political and economic population is far inferior to that of Sizhou.

But with the increase of displaced people, the imperial court moved all the displaced people who flowed into Sizhou into Guanzhong, coupled with the entry of the world's families, which made the population of Yongzhou almost exceed the two million mark in a short period of time, and the economy gradually became prosperous.

If this trend continues, Guanzhong will probably become the most complicated region.

Because this is about to become a gathering place for families from all over the world, there are not only Kansai families, but also related to the Eastern family, and if there are many families, some simple things will become complicated.

……

In July of the second year of Zhongping, the Han court officially moved the capital from Luoyang to Chang'an.

Liu Hong's relocation of the capital to Chang'an was different from Dong Zhuo, which did not cause damage to Luoyang, and the major institutions of the imperial court had been relocated within half a month, while the family dragged the family slowly.

Chang'an, Weiyang Palace.

This palace, which witnessed the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty, has once again ushered in its new owner, Liu Hong.

Looking at the ministers under the court, Liu Hong asked in a deep voice: "Where are the reinforcements in Guanzhong now?" ”

Liu Hong knew that his move to the capital might be a stupid move in the eyes of the world, but he knew in his heart that this was the only way to save the Han, and that person's plan would never go wrong.

"Your Majesty, 50,000 reinforcements from Guanzhong have arrived in Luoyang, and 100,000 troops from Yizhou have also entered Guanzhong." He Jin stood out and reported in a deep voice.

"Now that Yizhou is empty, there is no chaos, right?" Liu Hong asked worriedly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, with the two generals Liu Yan and Liu Ji here, Yizhou is as stable as Mount Tai."

Liu Hong nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, he saw a member of the detective hurrying into the main hall.

"Report ...... Your Majesty, Xiao Pingjin...... Lost. ”

The news was like thunder when it reached everyone's ears.

"What?"

Liu Hong stood up violently and exclaimed, "How is this possible? ”

The court instantly became chaotic, and all kinds of discussions continued.

"Your Majesty, the Yellow Turban has been constantly increasing troops to Xiaopingjin, and Xiang Yu has also been attacking day and night, in order to take Xiaopingjin and even personally attack the city, General Yuan finally failed to withstand it, and now has led 20,000 remnants of the army to retreat to Luoyang."

The reason why Xiao Pingjin missed so quickly was that after all, it was affected by the relocation of the capital.

The emperor has run away, how can the soldiers in front still have the confidence to defend it?

The loss of Xiaopingjin also made all the efforts of the four princes such as Qin Wen in the Tiger Prison Pass in vain.

"Order, order Qin Wen to give up the Tiger Prison Pass and defend Luoyang with all his might."

Liu Hong didn't know if this decision was right or not, but he had to do so.

As soon as Xiaopingjin was lost, the Yellow Turban could already directly mobilize a large army to attack Luoyang through the waterway, and it no longer made the slightest sense to let Qin Wen defend it in the Tiger Prison.

But once the Tiger Prison Pass is abandoned, Zhang Jiao and Xiang Yu will be allowed to merge with the soldiers and horses, and when the millions of troops will come to Luoyang, can Luoyang really be able to hold it?

It's a dead end with no solution.

As the saying goes: Blessings and misfortunes depend on them, and misfortunes and blessings lurk.

The Han had constant bad news on the frontal battlefield, and when everyone was pessimistic that the Han was going to die, there was finally good news from the front.

"Report ......"

Liu Hong raised his head weakly and said with a slight mockery: "Who was defeated again?" Zhu Yan? Or Huangfu Song? ”

Liu Hong was extremely dissatisfied with these ministers under the court, and even thought that if it weren't for them, the Han would have come to this situation, but Liu Hong didn't take into account his own mistakes at all.

Zhang Rang took the warrant, and after looking at it, he was immediately surprised: "Your Majesty, this time is good news, the champion Hou Qinhao defeated Huangchao's 200,000 army in Kaifeng, killing more than ten thousand enemies." ”
