Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 419 Doze off and have a pillow
In more than three months, Liu He took the Central Plains with a thunderbolt, and everyone in the world was shocked. Cao Cao also took the opportunity to attack Xiaopei, and joined Pengcheng as a line of defense to protect Xuzhou.

Unaware that it was winter, Liu He took Cheng Pu as the governor of Yanzhou and Cheng Yu as the governor of Yuzhou. He rectified the soldiers and horses to appease the people, and went back to Xingyang to inspect the construction of Luoyang.

As soon as he arrived in Xingyang, he saw a group of more than a thousand soldiers stationed outside the city. They were not dressed as soldiers from Hebei. Liu He was a little surprised that the soldiers from there could go deep into the Central Plains, so Xu Chu sent someone to investigate.

Not long after the soldiers came to report that the soldiers outside the city were sent by Liu Zhang to transport the construction of the Luoyang palace. After the money and food were delivered, it happened that Liu Yan died of illness. They had no intention of returning to Yizhou and planned to join Liu He.

Liu He said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, the soldiers and horses of Yizhou also know that the Central Plains is good. Since they are sincerely surrendering, let them stay in Xingyang!"

The soldiers were about to reply, but they saw a group of people from the city rushing over, but it was Xingyang prefect who heard the news and came out of the city to meet him. Liu He originally planned to go to Hulaoguan to rest before dark, and he could arrive in Luoyang early tomorrow morning, and had no intention of entering the city .

The prefect replied: "General, the Yizhou soldier and horse captain claimed to go to battle to kill the enemy, and he didn't want to stay in Xingyang, so the men and horses did not enter the city."

"Oh?" Liu He was a little surprised. He thought these people came to the Central Plains to hide and relax, but unexpectedly they wanted to fight. He asked, "Who is leading the army?"

"This person is from Linjiang, Berkshire. His surname is Gan, his name is Ning, and his style name is Xingba. This kid is too crazy. He..."

"Quickly, enter the city!" The eunuch was about to file a complaint, but before he finished speaking, Liu He rode his horse and went straight to the city.

A group of officials looked at each other and followed into the city, when they arrived at the government office, they saw Liu He holding Gan Ning's arm, talking and laughing like old acquaintances.

Liu He didn't expect that Gan Ning would come to Luoyang. After some conversation, he found out that Liu Yan was seriously ill. After receiving the imperial edict, he asked Liu Zhang to send some money and food to Luoyang as a token of his gratitude.

However, the land of Shu is remote, thousands of miles apart, and there are many bandits along the way. Not only does it cost a lot to transport food, but you also have to be careful about being hijacked by thieves, so we decided to transport it by water. Those who transport food must not only be highly skilled in martial arts, but also familiar with water warfare and willing to do so. Ning is undoubtedly the best candidate.

When Gan Ning was young, he was a chivalrous warrior, hiding his life in exile, and doing evil in the local area. He often gathered people to rob ships and property. Because he admired luxury, he was called Jinfan Bandit. .

Liu Zhang knew Gan Ning's ability, so he asked him to escort the grain ship from Jingzhou to Nanyang and enter Luoyang.

He had heard of Liu He's name a long time ago. He heard that this man knows people well and is a clan member of the Han family. Liu Yan died of illness and had no intention of returning to Yizhou, so he showed his heart to vote for Liu He.

At this time, Liu He was fighting with Lu Bu in Yanzhou. Gan Ning got Xun Yu's letter and came from Luoyang to help the battle. Unexpectedly, he arrived at Xingyang. Liu He had already surrendered to Lu Bu, so he had to stay in the city temporarily.

The prefect of Xingyang felt that Zhang Yun was short of troops because he led troops to Yuzhou, so he wanted Gan Ning to stay in Xingyang. Unexpectedly, Gan Ning didn't like him at all, so he was annoyed by this, so he wanted to give Gan Ning eye drops in the city , but unexpectedly Liu He entered the city when he heard the name, and was caught off guard.

In the mansion, Liu He ordered people to throw a banquet, and personally welcomed Jin Fan Gan Ning. This hero of the Three Kingdoms period unexpectedly ran to the Central Plains by accident. How could Liu He not be happy?

Historically, Gan Ning rebelled after the death of Liu Yan. After being suppressed by the officers and soldiers, Gan Ning fled to Jingzhou, but was not taken seriously by Liu Biao. He prepared to go to Jiangdong. When he heard that Sun Quan was recruiting talents in Jiangdong, he prepared to go and join the army, but was captured in Xiakou. Huang Zu stopped him and had to stay in Jiangxia temporarily. Later, Sun Quan killed Huang Zu and got Gan Ning, a naval general.

Liu He is now training his navy in Qingzhou. Although he has famous generals like Guan Yu and Tai Shici, and is assisted by Chen Yu and others, he is not a regular navy general after all. Compared with people like Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, he always feels that he is inferior. something.

At this time, Gan Ning took the initiative to vote, he was really sleepy and had a pillow, why didn't he be overjoyed?

Now Liu He informed Gan Ning about the formation of the navy, and asked him to lead the navy in Qingzhou and serve as General Henghai. His 800 Jinfan Army plus the Huainan Army brought by Chen Yu were enough to train a powerful army. navy.

Gan Ning was overjoyed when he heard the words, and when he saw Liu Hecai, he entrusted him with an important task.

On the second day, Gan Ning rushed to Qingzhou with his men and horses to take office, while Liu He went to Luoyang. This is the capital of the Han Dynasty and the future card, so we should not be too hasty.

When people came to Luoyang, weeds were still growing inside and outside the city. Xun Yu, Yang Biao and others presided over the major repairs, first repairing the dilapidated city walls, and then re-planning the layout of the city.

The money and food brought in from all over the place were placed in the North Palace. Because it was a military camp before, Dong Zhuo was the last to withdraw his troops. There was not much damage. The most serious damage was the palace in the inner city.

Xu You was also very busy during this period, and the money and food delivered from various places were not enough to build the capital. Liu He gave him a way to attract investment, soliciting investment and sponsorship everywhere.

At this time, the restoration map of the Luoyang Palace has been drawn, so Xu You took the map and went to sell the land first. From now on, Luoyang City will definitely need owners. Money can be invested.

This is very similar to the model of developing real estate in later generations, but the government does not provide buildings, and each family buys the house land and builds it by itself, but it must be implemented according to the unified plan. In addition, the market, shops and other plans are also sold.

The news was released by Yanjing Magazine, and the whole world was in a state of turmoil. The dilapidated Luoyang City was full of traffic every day, and everyone came to inspect the site. This is a great opportunity to enter the imperial capital, especially those who have money but no power. They all came to investigate.

Liu He, Xun Yu and others stood on the south gate of Luoyang, looking at the horses and people entering and leaving. Although there was no place to stay in the city, it also restored the capital to a little bit of vitality.

The craftsmen had to stop and go back to rest. Yang Biao sighed anxiously. He wished he could rush to work day and night so that he could move the emperor to Luoyang as soon as possible. Fu Han room.

Seeing their worried expressions, Liu He reached out to take a few petals and said with a smile: "Winter is coming, can spring be far behind?"

"General..." Yang Biao was startled and looked at Liu He blankly, but was actually touched by his words.

Liu He looked back at Yang Biao, Huang Wan and others. These old ministers had white beards and hair, but they were still running in the snow and cold for state affairs. Although sometimes they were stubborn and helpless, their determination to serve the country was moving.

He looked at the vast sky with his hands behind his back, and slowly chanted:

"The country is broken by mountains and rivers, and the city is full of spring vegetation.

Tears are splashed when feeling, and I hate goodbye and startle.

The flames lasted three months, and the family letter was worth ten thousand gold.

The white hair is scratched shorter, and the hairpin is full of lust. "

Yang Biao and other veterans were shocked when they heard it, as if they saw the spring scenery of Luoyang in the snowflakes, but thought of the thinning white hair, old age and frailty, feeling this scene, they couldn't help crying.
