The Battle of Xuzhou came to a swift end because of Qin Hua's intervention.

Cao Cao got his wish to obtain the land of Xuzhou, but this time he also paid a lot of price for the attack on Xuzhou.

In addition to the loss of 60,000 or 70,000 elite soldiers, Cao Cao's general Xiahoudun also died in this war.

If Cao Cao is the person who benefited the most from this war, then Qin Hua is the second person.

Although 150,000 troops were mobilized, there were no casualties, and none of these soldiers were killed or wounded, but Qin Hua harvested many of Lu Bu's subordinates, including Chen Gong, and the remnants of Lu Bu's army, which were already in their early 10,000s.

These troops are not rabble, but the elite Danyang soldiers obtained from his "old father-in-law" Cao Bao when Lu Bu first took over Xuzhou.

These soldiers have been following Lu Bu since the beginning of Lu Bu's struggle for Xuzhou with Liu Bei, and they have a high loyalty, so they are willing to go to Luoyang with Qin Hua this time.

The more important thing is that Cao Cao's massacre of the people in Xuzhou really made these Xuzhou soldiers unwilling to belong to Cao Cao.

Although he didn't take away his baggage and wealth, Qin Hua didn't care about it, he valued people more than these dead things.

The last beneficiary was naturally Yuan Shu, who was still reluctant to send troops after receiving Chen Gong's constant requests for help.

It wasn't until Chen Gong expressed his willingness to persuade Lü Bu to take out half of the land in Xuzhou to thank Yuan Shu after repelling Cao's army, that he had the idea of sending troops at this time.

But what Yuan Shu never expected was that Qin Hua actually appeared at this time.

Yuan Shu still remembers the incident when Qin Hua almost strangled him to death, and also remembers the gaze that Qin Hua looked at him when he was taken away, these things often made Yuan Shu wake up from nightmares when he was sleeping.

So when he learned that Qin Hua appeared in Xiapi with an army of 150,000, he immediately got in touch with Cao Cao and expressed his willingness to help Cao Cao resist Qin Hua.

Cao Cao also knew that Yuan Shu only said this because of Qin Hua's relationship, and his own casualties among his soldiers were not small, so he did not fight Qin Hua again, and agreed to Qin Hua's request to take away the remnants of Lu Bu and his family.

Although Qin Hua simply left Xuzhou and went all the way to Si Li, Cao Cao's problem was not over.

Because of Qin Hua's departure, Yuan Shu immediately stood on the opposite side of Cao Cao.

He sent an envoy to Cao Cao to ask for half of the land in Xuzhou as a thank-you gift, to which Cao Cao would not of course agree.

Originally, Yuan Shu didn't want to be hard with Cao Cao like this, but who made Cao Jun lose a lot of money on the scene?

On the tenth day after Qin Hua left, after both sides confirmed that Qin Hua had left, Cao Jun and Yuan Jun started a major battle outside Xiapi City.

The quality of Yuan Shu's army is not as good as Cao's army, but who makes them more numerous? Coupled with the fact that Cao's army fought viciously repeatedly, the morale was not high, and Cao Cao was forced to withdraw from Xiapi.

After that, the two sides fought several more skirmishes to decide the ownership of Xuzhou.

Yuan Shu has always had a far-reaching "ambition" in his heart, so he was unwilling to consume too much of his troops, and finally divided Xuzhou equally with Cao Cao.

Yuan Shu occupied Xuzhou's Xiapi and the East China Sea, while Cao Cao captured Langya, Pengcheng, and Guangling.

In order to repair his damage in the Battle of Xuzhou, Cao Cao temporarily withdrew his troops and stopped expanding externally.

Yuan Shu is also digesting the two counties of Xuzhou that he has just acquired.

Yuan Shao found reinforcements from the Xianbei people because of the remnants of the Three Kings of Wuhuan, and now he is still fighting in the northern grasslands, so he has no time to take care of the situation in the Central Plains.

As for Qin Hua, there is no new target in a short period of time, and he is ready to restore the eastern capital Luoyang.

Although the population in Luoyang is not as large as before Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, it also has a population of hundreds of thousands.

In addition to Qin Hua's relocation from his own territory, the displaced people from other counties, as well as the more than 10,000 people brought over from Taishan County this time, Qin Hua felt that it was time to rebuild Luoyang.

However, Qin Hua's resolution was met with a lot of opposition, and most people believed that Luoyang had burned down and that it would cost a lot to rebuild. Although Chang'an, the western capital, is not as good as Luoyang at the beginning, it is enough to be used as a place of governance.

Only Qin Hua's father, Qin Huang, was for other reasons, Qin Huang thought that Xianyang, the capital of Qin, was near Chang'an, and although Xianyang City could not be rebuilt, it was necessary to place the governance in Chang'an.

However, even though there was more opposition, Qin Hua still chose to rebuild Luoyang arbitrarily.

Now Qin Hua's authority is greater than that of the emperors of many dynasties, Qin Hua has decided, and it is difficult for others to say anything, so they can only do what he says.

Now Qin Hua's power composition is still very simple, just like other warlord regimes, Qin Hua has absolute power, and no one else can refute it at all.

However, now is not the time to move over, Qin Hua needs to think about building the city.

In order to plan the new Luoyang City, Qin Hua summoned most of the officials led by Luda of the Ministry of Industry and asked them to draw the drawings of the new Luoyang City within January.

In order to facilitate their drawing, Qin Hua also introduced charcoal to them.

In the past, the drawings were drawn with a brush, which not only required a very high technical requirement for the painter, but also could not make mistakes, otherwise the whole drawing would be scrapped.

After using charcoal, not only can you draw straight lines and circles with the help of props, but even if you make a mistake, you can erase them in time, which can be said to greatly improve work efficiency.

As for the money for the construction of Luoyang City, Qin Hua was not worried, because he didn't need to pay at all, and naturally someone would send the money over.

At first, even smart people such as Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others didn't understand that the construction of Luoyang City was not a small expense, and this expenditure was even far more than the amount of money used to pay Qin Hua's "ransom".

How could such a large sum of money be delivered? And who will send it? In addition to Qin Hua himself, the Han Dynasty can produce such a large amount of wealth, that is, Cao Cao and other powerful warlords, but will these people send Qin Hua to repair the city?

The question was quickly answered, and since the Ministry of Industry completed the general plan of the new Luoyang City, a new message appeared on the bulletin boards in various places.

"If you want to buy a piece of land in Luoyang City, Chang'an Mansion can participate in the bidding, and after January, most of the commercial areas in the new Luoyang City will be sold and some residential areas will be sold."

As soon as this news came out, the major families couldn't sit still and went to Chang'an to prepare to participate in the bidding.

Most of these families under Qin Hua were from Liang and Liang, and there were a small number of subordinates and other states who migrated over.

The vast majority of these people have a keen interest in owning a piece of their own property in Luoyang.

For example, how can the name of the Guo family in Liangzhou be compared to the Guo family in Luoyang, which has always been despised as a family in remote areas before, but now it finally has a bright future.

Although the nominal capital is now Xudu, that is, the original Xuchang, Luoyang is the real capital in the minds of the people of the Han Dynasty, and then it is also Chang'an, and Xudu is not ranked at all.

"Haha, lord, what a wonderful trick of yours. Even I received a lot of gifts and wanted me to help them find a good place in Luoyang. ”

Xun You, who was still worried about Qin Hua's obstinate behavior, suddenly became happy.

Originally, he was still worried that Qin Hua's decision would make the already tight finances worse, but now it seems that not only does he not need to use a little money under his hands, but there seems to be a lot of surplus.

"The lord is really a great talent, and he can't do it."

Guo Jia also shook his head, he didn't expect Qin Hua to have this trick.

In the face of the flattery of these people, Qin Hua was also very satisfied that his plan had succeeded.

"This is the way for future generations to engage in real estate, collect money first and then build a house, you know that there are ghosts."

At this time, Qin Hua also had some confidence in himself, he had always felt that he had only controlled the situation by borrowing the group's advanced historical knowledge, and now it seemed that he was better than these ancients in some other aspects.

The knowledge that many modern people regard as common sense is a very remarkable thing in this era.
