Chapter 313: Moving the capital to Luoyang

In the spring of 211, Zhong Xuan traveled back and forth between Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and Cao Cao was afraid of historical infamy, coupled with the opposition of the Yanzhou clan and the dissatisfaction of the ministers of the court, Cao Cao decided to temporarily compromise and let the Son of Heaven move the capital to Luoyang.

So the most important event of the year happened, the news of the return of the Son of Heaven became more and more intense, and Tao Ying's contribution once made Tao Ying a great minister supported by everyone in the Han Dynasty. Emperor Xian is the king of Pengcheng, the general and the pastor of Xuzhou. After the Son of Heaven returned to Luoyang, he named Cao Cao as the king of Wei according to the agreement, and Cao Cao's son Cao Pi was appointed as the son. Since then, a great war ended in this peaceful way, Cao Cao lost the political advantage of the princes in the first war, and lost a large area of land in Jizhou, not only that, because of more than a year of war, Yanzhou was impoverished, and the people did not even have food to eat.

In April, the Son of Heaven, escorted by Xun Yu and others, entered Yin in Henan Province from Xudu via Bianjing, and then built the imperial palace in Luoyang. After the Son of Heaven left Xudu, the princes handed over all the land of Yin in Henan to the imperial court, and at the same time, after the princes of all walks of life discussed, each prince garrisoned 1,000 people in Luoyang City as the defensive military horses of Luoyang City. After Henan Yin returned to the control of the emperor, Bianjing City and Hanoi County, which were controlled by Tao Ying, ushered in a new round of development opportunities.

In May, the princes of all walks of life funded the construction of the imperial palace, Yanzhou was short of grain, under the coordination of the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao and Tao Ying repaired, Xuzhou Industrial and Commercial Bank reopened in Yanzhou, a large number of grain and grass began to be transported from Xuzhou to Yanzhou for disaster relief, and a large number of gold and silver were transported back to Xuzhou. In addition, Xuzhou's business with Sun Quan went up again, and soon Xuzhou's economy began to develop rapidly. After having the money, Tao Ying opened the Xuzhou Industrial and Commercial Bank all the way to Luoyang City, and then along Luoyang City to the land of Sanqin, and then sold to Jingzhou in the south, and Xuzhou's goods soon began to become popular in the Han Dynasty.

The economy is booming, and the factories are back in operation. Moreover, this time the goods were exported to the whole country, so more workers were needed, so Tao Ying decided to follow the old system and start disarmament. In this battle, the prefectures under Xuzhou had nearly 500,000 troops, and Tao Ying decided to disarm 50,000 troops every year, and strive to reduce the number of soldiers and horses to 300,000 within three years. In addition to disarmament, after nearly 17 years of development, a generation of young talents with new knowledge has emerged in Xuzhou, and these young talents have begun to open the second industrial revolution under the leadership of Tao Ying!

When the steam engine was not yet popularized in Xuzhou, after Tao Ying and scholars from various industries worked together, the electrical era was finally opened! After nearly half a year of research, Tao Ying finally invented the electric motor. Once he had electricity, Tao Ying was ready to open a thermal power plant and then build a hydropower plant on the fast-flowing Yangtze River. conAd1(); Electricity is an unfamiliar term, and it is also unfamiliar to the people of Xuzhou. They had only seen descriptions of electricity in Tao Ying's books, but they had never seen them.

After the invention of the electric motor, Tao Ying recalled the memories of his previous life and began to organize people to study glass. Glass is a big deal, because after the successful development of glass, you can invent telescopes, telescopes are particularly widely used in the military, once invented, they will sell well all over the country.

And after the invention of glass, it can also be used to make windows, which will be another revolution. With sufficient funds, Tao Ying transferred Zhuge Liang and Liu Ye, who were fond of invention, back to Xuzhou, and then set up a research and development team for internal combustion engines. In the autumn of 211, Tao Ying formulated a new five-year plan in Xuzhou, which was the result of the initial second industrial revolution. The first is the large-scale use of electricity, and the second is the invention and promotion of electric lamps and other items.

In the autumn of 211, with the big sale of grain and paper and other items, Xuzhou's money slowly came back, the reputation of the central bank became louder and louder, and Xuzhou's paper money began to become popular in Luoyang, so that more gold and silver were shipped back to Xuzhou. After having the money, Tao Ying began to call on the people to build railways from Shouchun to Pengcheng, Pengcheng to Guangling, Pengcheng to Qingdao County, Pengcheng to Shanyang County, and Pengcheng to Liangguo.

The tracks of these rails are uniform so that trains can travel all over the country. Tao Ying not only began to build the railway in Xuzhou, but also began to focus on planning the territory in the north. The first major project in the north was the construction of a train track connecting Bingzhou, Jizhou, Youzhou, and Liaoning. The railway is expected to be completed in 216, when it will connect the entire northern provinces.

After the railway in the north was planned, Tao Ying also planned the railway in the south. There is a lot of water in the south, so the shipping in the south is developed, but in many places the shipping cannot meet the transportation needs, so Tao Ying built a railway in Jiangnan Province to connect the main cities of Jiangnan Province. Due to the recovery of Danyang County in the south, Tao Ying built the railway from Suzhou City, Jiangnan Prefecture to Moling City, Danyang County.

Moling is the location of Nanjing in later generations, so Tao Ying renamed Danyang County as Danyang Mansion, set the capital in Moling, and renamed Moling Jinling. After the establishment of Danyang Mansion, Tao Ying planned a railway to connect several cities in Danyang, and then to Nanchang City, Jiujiang Prefecture, so that the railway could connect Jiangnan Mansion, Danyang Mansion, and Jiujiang Mansion. conAd2(); This railway also connects the major cities in the south, such as Suzhou, Jinling, Nanchang, Jiujiang and other cities, so that both offense and defense can be together.

After entering the period of peace, the development of the areas under Tao Ying's control entered the fast track, and at this time, Tao Ying wrote to the Son of Heaven, praying that the Son of Heaven would order the princes to reduce their troops, especially Yanzhou. The Son of Heaven ordered the whole country to reduce troops, Tao Ying responded to the call to cut 100,000 troops at one time, and the Son of Heaven was happy to seal Tao Ying as a lieutenant and be in charge of the world's soldiers and horses. So Tao Ying sent an order to Cao Cao, ordering Cao Cao to cut his troops, but Cao Cao refused to cut his troops in the name of many bandits and robbers in Yanzhou.

Soon, in less than a year, the Son of Heaven discovered that although he was out of the control of the various princes, the princes were now working independently, and no one listened to his orders, which gave the Son of Heaven a headache. Especially Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, Zhang Luyan had a meritorious role in saving the driver, and wanted the Son of Heaven to make him the king of Hanning, but the Son of Heaven did not obey, Zhang Lu wanted to crusade against the Son of Heaven, so the Son of Heaven ordered Liu Zhang of Yizhou to send troops to attack Zhang Lu.

Liu Zhang had long wanted to get the land of Hanzhong, so he led his army to attack Zhang Lu, and the two princes entered melee mode. At the end of the war, a lot of equipment was needed, so Zhang Lu bought a large number of steel knives and Taoling third-generation guns from the Xuzhou General Commercial Bank, all of which were built by Tao Ying's Hanoi County factory, and after exporting these weapons, the newly established factory in Hanoi County gradually became the largest supplier in Luoyang.
