Chapter 22: Moving the Capital

Hu Chi'er is also completely confused.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "This ...... Could it be that Lu Bu is luring us into an ambush circle? ”

Niu Fu said, "It should be." Otherwise, there is no reason to run away immediately without fighting, Lu Bu is not the kind of person who is afraid of things. ”

Hu Chi'er echoed: "What the general said is reasonable, we must be careful and never fall into the trap of the enemy." ”

Niu Fu led the army slowly, for fear of being ambushed by Lu Bu.

Lu Bu led his troops to camp outside Chang'an City early.

Soon rumors spread in Chang'an City.

"Niu Fu raised 100,000 troops to attack Chang'an, to avenge Dong Zhuo."

"Lu Bu is defeated, what should I do now?"

"It's over, it's all over. Lu Bu is not their opponent, who else can resist these people now. ”

"Run. It's too late to run away. ”

……

The Han court is also a frying pan.

We are clamoring to eradicate Dong Zhuoyu's party, just thinking that you Lu Bu are brave and invincible, and now you can't even win Niu Fu.

How can this battle be fought?

There was an instant uproar in the court.

The servant Zhao Qi was the first to stand up and say, "Your Majesty, the anti-thief is powerful, and I ask to return the capital to Luoyang to avoid the thief." ”

Situ Wang Yun came out and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, Wen Hou just didn't notice it for a while, and he lost a small game. What's more, Chang'an City has thick walls, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and those traitors will definitely not be able to easily conquer Chang'an. Please also ask Your Majesty not to listen to rumors and stick to Chang'an. ”

Sun Rui, a scholar and servant of Shangshu, also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial court has just moved from Luoyang, and now it is moving again. This movement is unsettling. Every time you migrate, you lose heart. Is it okay to care if people's hearts are sluggish? I implore Your Majesty to hold on to the peace of the people. ”

In the imperial history, Emperor Fu Song also came out and said: "Weichen is willing to lead his troops to defeat Niu Fu." ”

Taichang Ma Riyan came out and said: "Your Majesty, Luoyang is the old capital. His Majesty has not paid homage to the ancestral temple since the first year of the early peace, which is unfilial. Weichen implored His Majesty to return the capital to Luoyang and pay tribute to the ancestral temple. ”

Ma Riyan didn't like to continue to stay in Chang'an, he found a high-sounding reason.

Your Majesty, we are not running away, we are going back to the old capital to worship the ancestral temple.

Taiwei Zhao Qian came out and said, "Your Majesty." Too often said very much, and asked to return the capital to Luoyang. ”

Emperor Liu Xie sat on the dragon chair and was very hesitant.

He actually wanted to move the capital to Luoyang, but he was afraid that if he left like this, the world would laugh at him.

Just when everyone was arguing, suddenly Cui Lie, the captain of the city gate, came to the palace and said: "Your Majesty, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Fan Chou, and Zhang Ji raised 100,000 troops, threatening to avenge the Taishi Dong Zhuo and kill the anti-thief Wang Yun and Lu Bu. ”

Originally, Niu Fu had 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Lu Bu couldn't win.

Now Li Dao and they have also raised troops, and there are 100,000 people.

There's absolutely no chance of winning now.

Chang'an left Liu Xie with only shame, and now he doesn't want to stay in Chang'an even more.

"Luoyang is the old capital, where the ancestral mausoleum is located, I have made a decision, return to Luoyang, worship the ancestral temple, and worship the Han Dynasty."

Taiwei Zhao Qian, Taichang Ma Riyan and others hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

The servant Lu Kui stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty is still the capital of Luoyang, and Chang'an also needs people to stay behind, so you can let Wenhou Lu Bu stay in Chang'an and pacify the traitors." ”

Liu Xie was not stingy on this, he issued an order: "Feng Lu Bu is the general of Zhenxi, fake festival, and Yibi three divisions." Guarding Chang'an. ”

The imperial court wants to move to Luoyang, which is a big move.

Huang Pu Song was promoted to general of the chariot cavalry, and led the more than 10,000 old troops of the Xiliang Army selected by Lu Bu to be handed over to him for command, responsible for escorting the emperor from Chang'an, to Hongnong, and then turning to Luoyang.

Knowing that Emperor Liu Xie really decided to return the capital to Luoyang, Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Liu Xie finally decided to go to Luoyang, otherwise he would have to use the last resort.

Standing at the foot of the arrow tower, looking at the team in the distance, Lu Bu felt an indescribable joy in his heart.

As soon as the emperor leaves, Chang'an will be mine.

It's going to be mine in this level, too.

Jia Xu walked up to Lu Bu's side, "Congratulations to the general, you finally got what you wanted." ”

Lu Bu smiled and said: "This is only the first step, if you can't defeat Niu Fu and these people, it doesn't make any sense to take Chang'an." ”

Jia Xu looked down on Niu Fu and the others at all, he looked out of the city. "How Niu Fu and the others are the general's opponents, it is not difficult to defeat them, but it is difficult to govern Guanzhong."

Lu Bu nodded heavily. "Indeed. How to govern Guanzhong is the key. ”

Dong Zhuo forcibly relocated a million people from Luoyang to Chang'an. All of a sudden, the population of Guanzhong skyrocketed, but it brought a series of livelihood and security problems.

If nothing else, how will this million people settle? How can their livelihoods be guaranteed?

Dong Zhuo completely ignored it and left these people to fend for themselves.

But Lu Bu can't.

He wants to compete for the Central Plains, and if he wants to dominate the world, he must have soldiers and money.

Where the soldiers and money come from, in the end, it does not fall on the people under the rule.

How to make the people under the governance continue to develop, and the energy source continues to provide soldiers and money, which is related to Lu Bu's war potential, and whether he has enough capital to fight for the world.

In the past, it was the people who wanted to complain and complain about Dong Zhuo.

As soon as Dong Zhuo died, the responsibility for governance naturally fell on the imperial court and Emperor Liu Xie.

Now Liu Xie and the imperial court have run away.

Then the responsibility of governance becomes the general of Zhenxi, Lu Bu.

If the governance is not good, the resentment of the people will fall on Lu Bu.

Lu Bu looked at Chang'an City and made a fuss at Jia Xu. "Mr. Wenhe, please leave the matter of governing Chang'an to you, sir, for the time being. I will bulldoze Niu Fu and others as soon as possible, and come back to accompany my husband to govern together. ”

Jia Xu knew that as long as he could get through this difficulty, Lu Bu's foundation would be completely stable.

At that time, there will really be capital to compete for the world.

If you don't make it, then everything is over.

Since he took refuge in the other party, he recognized the other party as the master. Jia Xu naturally knew that this was the time to exert his own strength.

"Although governance is not my specialty, I will do my best."

This sentence is true, what Jia Xu is good at is making suggestions and planning the world.

This ability to govern and stabilize the people is really not what he is good at.

However, who called Lu Bu's subordinates a pitiful few officials, and now Jia Xu can only reluctantly help manage it.

Jia Xu said: "My lord, if you want to compete for the world, you must attract the world's talents. Usually the lord also has to recruit talents. ”

"I know. If Mr. Wenhe knows the talents, he can also recommend them to me. I will appoint it at my discretion. ”

Jia Xu heard it, thought about it and said. "Jingzhao Duling Duji, Fufeng Wugong Su is known as a virtuous name. The lord can try to recruit. ”

Du Ji, Su Ze?

It seems that I have heard of these two people, and there must be something special about them who can leave their names in history.

Lu Bu immediately nodded and said, "Okay." Mr. Wenhe sent someone to investigate where they were now. I personally came to the door to invite. ”

Seeing that Lu Bu was as good as a stream, and was willing to deign to invite him personally, Jia Xu nodded with satisfaction. "Good!"

After agreeing on something, Lu Bu sent someone to find all the eight strong generals.

"Your Majesty appointed Ben Hou to guard Chang'an, Ben Hou is naturally duty-bound, Niu Fu, Li Dao and others are not self-sufficient, they dare to wisp the tiger's beard, if they are not bullied, the world still thinks that I Lu Bu is easy to bully. Zhang Liao! ”

Zhang Liao immediately came out and hugged his fists and said: "The end will be!" ”

"I'll leave you 10,000 soldiers and horses. You stay in Chang'an. Remember, without the commander's military order, not a single soldier is allowed to enter the city. ”

Chang'an is a major matter related to the life and death of his army, and once it is lost, it will be very serious.

LΓΌ Bu decided to let Zhang Liao, who was later known as the head of the five good generals, guard Chang'an.

With him, he can feel at ease.

When Zhang Liao heard the order, he was stunned for a moment.

Wen Hou actually let himself lead the troops to Chang'an alone?

You must know that Chang'an is the retreat of the army, and it is a major matter related to the life and death of the whole army.

I didn't expect Wen Hou to let himself be responsible this time.

Zhang Liao hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "The last general will definitely not live up to Wen Hou's trust!" ”

"Good!" Lu Bu glanced at Zhang Liao.

"The others followed Ben Shuai to crusade against Niu Fu and Li Dao."
