On the 20th day of the 10th month of the leap month, Yu Ban led more than 100 military officials to arrive in Luoyang.

The 2,000 people he brought with him have been split, and all of them have moved to Hebei to serve as Tuntian guests of the Wei State, and if they are lucky, they can be reunited with their families.

Tuntian is a good guest, nominally a Mintun, but in fact, it is the same as Juntun, it is a compulsory management, and its status is equivalent to that of serfs.

After attacking the city and plundering the land, it is often large-scale to co-opt the people as Tuntianke, and the beautiful name is Mintun.

In the face of Cao Jun's sword, the people could only abandon their fields and houses, and were gathered and resettled like displaced people, and militarized management was implemented.

The so-called thirty taxes ...... A group of Tuntian guests who have left their hometowns and do not even have the freedom of identity, do you talk to him about 30 taxes and 1?

With the establishment of the Wei Kingdom, the Mintun Granges formed by Tuntian guests from all over the country were more like objects, which were divided by Wei officials, as if they were fragmented fiefs.

Tuntianke was an important source of taxation, and the surplus value after paying tax rent fell into the hands of Wei officials, which could be regarded as the acquiescence of the Cao family, in exchange for the all-round support of these officials.

At the time of the ban, the Luoyang Palace was being renovated little by little, and the cost of renovating the Luoyang Palace Complex was relatively low, because the underground drainage project and foundation were intact, and only needed to be renovated and added.

Along the way, the two thousand soldiers were now split and demoted to Tuntianke, which made Yu Ban numb.

The current Han and Wei kingdoms are no longer the Han and Wei kingdoms that I knew half a year ago.

In particular, the Wei Yan case that occurred in Yecheng in September killed too many people, so that the survivors learned to shut up, learn to be silent, and learn to keep their distance.

It seems that the chrysalis is about to turn into a butterfly, and before the pupal shell is broken, I don't know what it can bring, whether it is a butterfly chrysalis or a moth silkworm chrysalis.

At the end of the Battle of Xiangfan, it seems that the three forces are going to precipitate and brew, like insects pupating.

After forming a pupa and redistributing tissues, after breaking out of the shell, some may be poisonous insects, and some may be butterflies.

In the city of Luoyang, Yuanxili.

The ruins of Yuan Xili have been cleared, and houses are being built along the old wall and foundation at this moment, and the outline of the Yuan family's mansion has been completed.

Yu Ban met Cao Cao in the renovated courtyard of the old site of the Yuan family, Cao Cao wore a faintly bright bear fur, sat in front of the courtyard and watched the snow fall on the wall, and asked with a smile: "Wen Ze, you said that Dong Zhuo did not oppose back then, and listened to the orders of Yuan Kui and Yuan Ji, can the world be surnamed Yuan?" ”

He Jin, He Miao, and Dong Chong's three relatives and generals were killed, and the eunuchs were also killed, and the military and political power of Luoyang fell into the hands of Yuan Kui and Dong Zhuo.

Yu Ban recalled that the situation changed three times a day, and in just ten days, it completely changed the terrifying memory of the world.

Although Yuan Kui is the Taifu and records the affairs of Shangshutai, Yuan Ji is the master of the Yuan family, because Yuan Ji attacked the Marquis of Anguo Pavilion.

It doesn't matter if the pavilion marquis is not a pavilion, the important thing is to be named Anguo.

Yuan Ji is Yuan Shu's brother-in-law and Yuan Shao's brother, in the face of Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu have never been able to compete, Yuan Ji is the real head of the Yuan family.

It was Yuan Ji's death that caused the huge Yuan clan's power to be split in two, inherited by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shao made the fastest move, succeeded his eldest son Yuan Tan to Yuan Ji, and inherited the title of Marquis of An Guoting himself. If there is no accident, Yuan Tan will become the head of the Yuan family in the future, which means that the main line of the head of the family is still Yuan Ji's lineage, and Yuan Shao's other sons are still Shuliu and other lineages.

However, as soon as Yuan Shao died, the Hebei scholars supported Yuan Shang as their successor, causing the second split of the Yuan family.

It's just that the Yuan family after the second split also made Cao Cao very happy.

Seeing that Yu was silent, Cao Cao laughed: "Thinking of the prosperity of the Yuan family in the past, what I am most proud of is to crown Zhang Yan as the Marquis of Anguo Pavilion, I dare to seal him in the whole world, and only he dares to accept it." I think back then, Yuan Ji was like a mountain, which made me very uncomfortable. Fortunately, we waited for the army to raise troops and used Dong Zhuo's hand to kill Yuan Ji. ”

Cao Cao looked back at Yu Ban: "Wen Ze, why do you say there are so many heroes in the world?" In the past, there were Yuan Ji, Dong Zhuo, Gai Xun, Fu Xie, and later related to the Eastern Qunxiong. ”

"King, heroes are just fighting. If the king of Han is indomitable, if Guan Junhou is unswerving, all are the same. ”

After Yu Ban answered, Cao Cao was silent for a moment: "I'm not as good as Liu Xuande, I often have nightmares recently." Thinking about it, Liu Xuande and Yun Chang must sleep peacefully, and there is no evil invading. ”

Taking a breath, Cao Cao asked: "I thought that Wen Ze would avoid me, but I didn't want Yun Chang to return to Wen Ze, and I didn't want Wen Ze to dare to come to Luoyang." Wen Ze came, but has something to say? ”

Yu Ban was silent for a moment, his eyes red: "The defeat of the army should have been repaid with death." For a while, he was persuaded and coerced by the close relatives of the left and right, and took pity on the lives of more than 30,000 soldiers, so he abandoned his sword and begged to surrender. disappointed the king, and the minister was also guilty of death. ”

The smile on Cao Cao's face disappeared, and he heard Yu Ban say: "The minister has no face to come to see the king, but Tian Xiaoxian is no less fierce than Guan Junhou, and Ruizhi is even worse." The ministers feared that the kingdom would despise this man, so he came to the king to state his abilities. ”

"Xiao'er is proud for a while, how can he say anything?"

Seeing Cao Cao's disapproving tone, Yu Ban smiled bitterly and argued: "King, the minister will lead more than 30,000 elites of the Seventh Army, and if he fights against Tian Xiaoxian's 3,000 people, the minister will not dare to be careless." The courage of this person is no less than the king. With the beauty of strength, abstinence, and etiquette, the officials are willing to die with it. ”

"The minister thought that if this person did not die, the country would not be safe."

"When the minister returned to the country, this person saw him off, and said that the king's design to lead the clowns to gather together and make the prince swing his sword to cut him is a move of the world."

"Hearing this person's evil words, the minister is terrified."

Yu Ban paused, his forehead was pressed against the cold wooden floor, and he didn't dare to come out.

Cao Cao turned over and got up, and struck the wooden board in front of the forbidden forehead with his cane again and again, and there was a clang, Sima Yi, Jiang Ji, Dong Zhao, and Xiahou Dun heard the sound and walked from the courtyard, and Hou stood in front of the courtyard.

Staring at Yu Ban's emaciated face, full of white hair, Cao Cao opened his mouth and was deflated, and said: "Qing's heart, Gu has understood, and he will return to the house to recuperate, and then serve the country after he recovers...... Exert oneself. ”

"Thank you for your care."

Yu Ban bowed again, exchanged one last look with Cao Cao, got up tremblingly, his face was depressed, he took a few steps back, turned around and put on leather shoes under the eaves of the corridor, and reluctantly made a military salute before saluting the four Xiahou Dan, and the four of them also returned the salute sideways, and watched Yu Ban leave step by step.

When Yu Ban left, Cao Cao was heartbroken: "Yu Wen complained that the orphans punished the family members of the army harshly, and he was dissatisfied. ”

Xiahoudun gave up his hand and advised: "King, the law of this country is also not the king's intention. ”

"Yuan Rang doesn't have to lie to me."

Cao Cao reorganized his spirit and said: "Sun Quan lost in Jingzhou and returned in a fiasco. I expect him to seek peace with Liu Bei, and he will commit Hefei in the coming year, what is your opinion? ”

The four of them looked at each other, and Jiang Ji, who was relatively familiar with Huainan military affairs, stepped forward and stood beside Xiahoudun: "King, the Wu army is weak and not to worry. ”

Xiahoudun also followed closely to second, and he didn't think that Wu Jun had anything to worry about and care about.

In the battle of Jiangling, the defenders of Jingzhou did not leave the city, and the Wu army was defeated, so that its governor Lü Meng died in front of the battle.

After the battle of Maicheng, Xiahoudun still can't figure out how Sun Quan was defeated.

Thinking about it, it can only be classified as the Wu army was weak, unbearable to fight, and was driven out by the Jingzhou army.
