Chapter 584: Destroying Cao (42)

"Yuan Zhi, have you been to Luoyang before?" Lu Bu asked.

"The lord is saying that before Luoyang was burned by Dong Zhuo?"

"Hmm."

Xu Shu shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the minister hasn't been here." But the minister can imagine. Luoyang is the eastern capital, the tiger is in the dragon plate, and the shape is a place of victory. It has been the capital of the imperial court since ancient times. Economic and cultural center. The scholars and ministers of the world, but all those who have money, will settle in Luoyang. It can be seen that Luoyang was busy at that time. ”

"That's right."

Lu Bu stopped and said, "I promise you that within three years, Luoyang will be restored to its former state. Do you believe it or not? ”

"Three years?"

Xu Shu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I don't think it's possible." ”

"Why can't it?"

"Because of the war. Too many civilians have died in the war. I'm afraid that even the entire division is not much young and strong. No matter how well the lord built Luoyang, who will come? ”

"Hehe..."

Lu Budao: "Then let's wait and see." ”

Walked around town.

Arrive at a more luxurious mansion.

Walk in.

The facilities inside were very well equipped.

Lu Bu found a place to sit down, motioned for Xu Shu to take a seat as well, and said, "Yuan Zhi." After Cao Cao is eliminated, should we consider moving the capital? ”

"The lord finally talked about moving the capital." Xu Shu arched his hand and said: "In the past few years, many ministers have been persuading them, but the lord has ignored them, which has made the civil and military at all levels very dissatisfied. ”

"What's there to be dissatisfied with? I'm not in a hurry, what are they anxious about? ”

Xu Shu said: "The lord is not in a hurry. The whole world belongs to the Lord. In a word, the lord turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands for rain. Although he has not yet been proclaimed emperor, everyone knows that the lord is already the emperor of the world. ”

Lu Bu smiled....

Xu Shu continued: "The minister has to speak. After Cao Cao is eliminated, the lord really has to think about becoming the emperor. People of insight in the world all expect to make contributions. The lord is still just a small Hanting general and the assassin of Xuzhou. It's too... Hehe, only the lord is the emperor can give an explanation to the generals who have made meritorious contributions and an explanation to the people of the world. ”

"I can listen to you." Lu Bu nodded and said, "When you occupy Hebei and Xiliang, you can start to implement the matter of becoming the emperor." ”

"The lord is wise."

"But...."

Lu Budao: "Shouchun and Xudu are not ideal capitals. Chang'an is too far away from the Central Plains to manage the broken states of the Central Plains. I want to make Luoyang the imperial capital. What do you think? ”

"Luoyang?" Xu Shu said with a smile: "Luoyang has been abandoned for decades, and it is the last year that the houses have been built, and the people who have settled in Luoyang are less than 10,000 people, right?" Isn't it a joke that the lord has designated this place as the imperial capital? ”

"I'm not kidding."

Lu Budao: "Luoyang is the first choice as the imperial capital. I know that Luoyang is now barren. However, it is still too early to ascend the throne, and it will be a long time. We can prepare slowly. Reconstruction of Luoyang. ”

"Rebuild Luoyang?"

"Hmm." Lu Budao: "It will take three years to restore Luoyang to the past scene, which is not an empty word. Be practical! ”

"What are you going to do?" Xu Shu asked.

"I haven't figured it out yet." Lu Bu thought for a moment and said, "That's it." Let Lu Ban of the Ministry of Industry take a group of officials to Luoyang to check the terrain and re-plan. The Military Aircraft Department, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of War also sent some officials to Luoyang to participate in the construction of Luoyang and restore order. After eliminating Cao Cao. The official construction began, and it took a year to build the new Luoyang. What do you think? ”

"It's a huge cost to build a lot of money like this..." Xu Shu frowned: "However, building the imperial capital is a great undertaking for thousands of years, and it is worth spending some money." The ministers supported the lord's decision-making. Rebuild Luoyang City. ”

"Hmm."

Lu Budao: "When the renovation is time, I will help with the planning..." ”

"It will be better to have the lord to help with the planning." Xu Shu said.

Lu Bu wanted to plan a city for a long time.

Luoyang, as the imperial capital and a symbol of imperial power, naturally aroused his interest. If you combine the modern style with the ancient style and build Luoyang, I don't know what kind of scene it will be.

Meditated for a while...

Lu Bu straightened his figure and said, "Mr. Yuanzhi, after the artillery of the Academy of Science and Technology arrives, he will order Han Xin to march into Chang'an, what do you think?" ”

"Good. But.... ”

Xu Shu said: "The minister has an idea. ”

"Sir, but it doesn't hurt to say that."

Xu Shu said: "The Han family has gone through four hundred years, although the number of qi has been exhausted. But the Son of Heaven is still there, and the people and scholars of the world are also looking to the Han. If the lord forcibly occupies Chang'an, kills the Son of Heaven, and occupies the throne, he will not be immune to the pen and mouth of the scholars in the world. It's better than... After conquering Hebei, he gathered hundreds of thousands of troops to threaten Chang'an, and sent people to negotiate with the Son of Heaven, so that he took the initiative to give up Chang'an and Xiliang, and cede the emperor's position to the lord. In this way, Suncheon will succeed to the throne, and no one will say anything. ”

"The soldiers are not bloody, and they will take Chang'an?"

"Yes."

Lu Bu couldn't help laughing: "You're thinking too well." Will Emperor Han Xian agree? ”

"The general trend is coming, and he has to agree." Xu Shu said.

"Okay, and it's okay to try." Lu Budao: "When Hebei is captured, let's do it." ”

"No."

The things that Lu Bu and Xu Shu talked about were all based on dominating the world. However, the world is not one. In Hebei and Luoyang, there are still wars, and it is the most intense time to fight.

............................

Hebei.

Jizhou.

Wei County.

After being surrounded and intercepted by more than 400,000 Hebei troops, there were less than 100,000 troops left under Li Jing's command. In addition, the army was cut off from food and grass, and many weapons and armor were damaged.

On a plain.

Li Jing's more than 90,000 troops rested in place and buried the pot to cook.

They didn't even have a tent.

The conditions were very difficult.

"Xu Da, Xu Da..." Li Jing stood on a hillside and shouted a few times to the bottom.

Xu Da and Chang Yuchun hurriedly ran up: "General..." ”

"How much food do we have in our army?"

"Back to the general... This is already the last meal. Many of our soldiers are hungry and thirsty. Alas.... Xu Da replied.

"Well, I have a plan in mind." Li Jing took out the map, spread it on the ground, and said: "You see the northwest of Wei County, which is the exit of Taihang Mountain, linking Huguan. Huguan is the gateway to the state. If we can fight a battle there, transfer the garrison of Huguan out, kill him again, and take Huguan. It will surely attract all the enemy troops in Wei County. At that time, the main force of our whole army will go to Yecheng, the capital of Jizhou. There are hundreds of thousands of stone of grain hoarded there, which can be eaten by my general. ”

"Well, it's a clever idea. But... It's a bit of an adventure. "I often meet the spring road.
