Chapter Seventy-Six: A Family Reunion, Happy Ending!
In order to appease the newly surrendered Goguryeo people, and to let them smoothly sinicize, and to be a Han from now on, Lu Bu led a large army to be stationed in the domestic city for more than a month!
During this period of time, under the conquest of the army led by Zang Ba, Hao Zhao and other generals, the three counties of Liaodong, Xuansu, and Lelang, which originally belonged to the dead Gongsun Du, have now been planted with the battle flag belonging to Lu Bu, and from then on, these three counties belong to Lu Bu alone.
The new occupation of the three counties to avoid the northern Fuyu and the western Wuhuan will invade the border, and then enter Lu Bu's territory to make trouble, plundering the Han people and money and grain.
So, Lü Bu ordered Zang Ba to be the main general and Yang Ping to be the deputy general, and led an army of 10,000 to garrison Gaoxian County, Xuanfu County, to defend the Fuyu Kingdom in the north.
As for Wuhuan in the west, Lü Bu ordered Zhang Liao to be the main general and Pei Yuanshao to be the deputy general, leading the Han soldiers and the Goguryeo troops to unite 10,000 soldiers and horses, and quickly return to Liaodong County, and stationed the Liao team closest to Liaoxi County and Liaodong vassal states for defense.
In order to facilitate the consolidation of the new territory and to facilitate the conquest of more land and population to the west in the future, Lü Bu wanted to move the political center from Xingba City in Wenjun to the north, and the target city of the northward move was Xiangping in Liaodong.
Therefore, Lü Bu ordered Cao Bao to lead a thousand navy to the south from Mazishui, and then enter the city of Xingba in Wenjun, and relocate the population, officials, money and grain that should be relocated to Xiangping in Liaodong by sea.
Of course, Lu Bu's family and the guards and maids in the Wenhou Mansion will also be taken to Xiangping in Liaodong.
From then on, Lu Bu placed the Wenhou Mansion in Xiangping, Liaodong, and the magnificent county guard mansion built by Gongsun Du was the best choice.
After more than a month of expedition, Liu Yi led 5,000 soldiers to successfully occupy the entire territory of Goguryeo, by the way, Liu Yi led the army to destroy the small countries around Goguryeo, such as the Eastern Wofu and the Northern Wofu, leaving some cities that needed troops to be stationed, and Liu Yi led the remaining army to return victorious!
On the way to Goguryeo this time, Liu Yi's loyalty to Lu Bu skyrocketed.
If his former lord Gongsun Du was the main thing to appease most of the foreign races of Goguryeo, unlike Lu Bu, who led the army to destroy Goguryeo in one fell swoop, and then sinicized the Goguryeo people, removing the great disaster of Goguryeo for the Han people in several counties in Liaodong, and from then on, the Han people would never be looted or slaughtered by the Goguryeo people again.
Such a wise and martial hero is naturally worthy of Liu Yi, a wise general, to follow, to make meritorious contributions, to glorify the ancestors, and to seal his wife and son!
As for the sake of his own family's life, there was no way to surrender to Lu Bu, and the little complaint against Lu Bu is naturally gone now!
Since the whole territory of Goguryeo has been occupied, in order to facilitate governance, Lü Bu divided Goguryeo into two, and the Goguryeo land and city north of Mazishui were included in Xuansu County, and from then on they were governed by Xuansu County; As for the Goguryeo land and cities south of Mazishui, Lü Bu classified them into Lelang County, and from then on they were governed by Lelang County.
In this way, from Xuzhou across the sea to here, in a short period of time, Lu Bu owned four counties: Liaodong, Xuansu, Lelang, and Wenjun.
Moreover, all four counties are large counties with large populations and vast land!
Whether it is area or population, it is no worse than Xuzhou after being massacred by Cao Cao's army!
As for the Goguryeo people in the city that Liu Yi led the army to occupy, naturally, like the Goguryeo people who surrendered in the domestic city, they used a series of benefits to appease them, and then sinicized them.
After occupying the entire territory of Goguryeo, pacifying the Goguryeo people who surrendered in Sinicization, and everything was settled, leaving a part of the garrison troops, Lü Bu led the army and Baqi, the powerful people of Goguryeo, to leave the domestic city together, all the way to the west, towards Xiangping in Liaodong.
The speed of the march of the army was very fast, and soon, it came to Xiangping in Liaodong, the political center of Lü Bu's power after the Xingba City of Wenjun.
When he came to Xiangping in Liaodong, Lü Bu ordered Liu Yi and Han Zhi, who was transferred back from Jiangyuan City by Lü Bu, to lead a large army to be stationed outside the city, and at the same time asked people to arrange the residences of those who surrendered, while Lü Bu himself, under the escort of Zhou Cang and other three hundred personal soldiers, entered Xiangping City again.
Entering Xiangping, Lu Bu obviously felt that the eyes of the surrounding Xiangping residents looking at Lu Bu were full of respect and gratitude, because, under Lu Bu's bombardment of a series of benefits for the people, they only felt that they had full hope for their future life, and this new hope was brought to them by Lu Bu.
The poorer the people, the more simple they are, the more they know what it means to be grateful, and they naturally dare not forget their roots for Lu Bu, the benefactor who brought them a good life!
So, Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse, and along the way, in the respectful and grateful eyes of the residents of Xiangping, he went to the mansion of Liaodong County Shoufu, no, and now Wenhou Mansion, which is located in the center of the city.
Before he reached the Wenhou Mansion, Lu Bu saw several charming beauties looking around in front of the gate of the Wenhou Mansion under the protection of a group of guards, and when they saw Lu Bu appearing, they all suddenly showed an extremely excited smile.
Suddenly, the smile is like a flower, beautiful!
They were the wives and concubines of Lu Bu who had been waiting here for a long time after getting the news that Lu Bu would be back today, Yan Yao, Diao Chan, Cao Que'er, Xiao Qiao, and Lu Bu's daughter Lu Lingqi.
Suddenly seeing his wife and concubine and daughter Lu Lingqi, who he hadn't seen for a long time, made Lu Bu, who cared for his family very much, also excited, so Lu Bu rode a red rabbit horse to speed up.
Riding the red rabbit horse to the gate of Wenhou Mansion, Lu Bu dismounted and asked a personal soldier to lead the red rabbit horse to the stable in the Wenhou Mansion, and asked him to prepare clean forage and water, so that the red rabbit horse who had been fighting with Lu Bu for almost two months could eat and drink well, and let the red rabbit horse have a good rest while there was no war now.
Then, Lu Bu looked at his small family, especially Yan Yao and Diao Chan, who were pregnant and their bellies were gradually getting bigger, and couldn't help complaining: "It's windy outside, and I don't know the specific time for my husband to come back, so you don't have to wait outside for your husband when you come back from the battle for your husband in the future, and when your husband comes back, he will naturally come in to meet you." And Lingqi too. ”
However, Lu Bu was still very moved by Yan Yao, Diao Chan, and Lu Lingqi waiting for him outside the gate!
He was fighting outside, and the family was in harmony, this scene made Lu Bu of the Gu family naturally very willing to see it.
"The husband is fighting hard outside, so that we, the women, have a good life, just waiting for the husband, it's nothing! Besides, it's been a long time since I've seen my husband, and we sisters miss my husband! And Lingqi misses you as a father too! Yan Yao stepped forward and carefully wiped the sweat and dust on Lu Bu's face with a scented towel before saying softly.
After Yan Yao finished speaking, Diao Chan and Cao Qi'er also nodded, expressing their agreement with what Yan Yao said.
"Hmmm! I miss you too! It's windy outside, so let's go inside and get together! After speaking, Lu Bu took Yan Yao and Diao Chan into the backyard of Wenhou Mansion.
Suddenly, the family was reunited, and they were happy!
