Chapter 508

Liu Bei appointed Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as generals, commanded the Yuzhou army, and took Mi Zhu as Yuzhou's other driver. He was in charge of Yuzhou's government affairs.

The 50,000 army marched slowly, with drums and gongs on the road, smoke and dust, and there was a huge momentum for a while, while Yuzhou and Yanzhou were responsible for receiving the food and grass for the army. Liu Ye has paid attention to farming in the Guanzhong area these years, and the food and grass fell suddenly. It can also be regarded as filling.

In less than half a month, the 50,000 troops marched back from Yuzhou to Yanzhou. Liu Ye ordered most of the 50,000 troops to be stationed at Hulao Pass.

"It's ashamed to say that it's already thirty years old, and this is the first time I've come to Luoyang City." Liu Bei said with emotion.

I can only see a huge city in front of me appearing in the field of vision, almost occupying the entire line of sight. The tall city wall seems unbreakable, even though I have felt the enthusiasm emerging from it before entering the city, even after Dong Zhuo's fire, the city is still alive. It is still one of the best big cities in the country.

"Bei heard that before Dong Zhuo left Beijing that day, he ordered Luoyang to be burned, but he recovered so quickly. What's the matter?" Liu Bei asked curiously.

"It's thanks to Xun Lingjun." Liu Ye said with emotion: "Back then, a certain and Yuan Gonglu led the army to station in Luoyang. Although the rescue was timely, half of Luoyang was already ruined. I would have appointed Xun Gongda as the Zhongshuling and Luoyangling. Gongda worked hard, Luoyang Only then can the city be rebuilt."

"In this case, Bei really wants to meet this Lord Xun Ling."

Just as Liu Ye and Liu Bei were talking, smoke and dust suddenly filled the front, and the sound of horseshoes sounded. I saw a young general in green robe galloping towards Liu Ye and Liu Bei. After saluting each of Liu Ye and Liu Bei, he said loudly, "The last general, Ma Dai, is ordered by your order to welcome the great general and Liu Yuzhou for their triumphant return."

"Zhonghua doesn't need to be too polite, what's the publicity?" Liu Ye laughed.

"Lingjun is dealing with government affairs at Shangshutai." Ma Dai replied.

"Okay." Liu Ye said to Ma Dai: "You properly arranged for brother Xuande and his party to stay in the post house, and tomorrow we will go to court to see His Majesty together."

"Since that's the case, I'll be waiting for you tomorrow." Liu Bei said respectfully.

"Well, see you tomorrow!"

Shangshutai.

Liu Ye walked quickly into the Shangshutai, but unconsciously slowed down.

"Building aqueducts? Hmm."

I saw Xun You sitting kneeling behind the table, reviewing the documents with a pen in his hand, and beside him was a Zhongshu Sheren who was reporting affairs. Xun You nodded from time to time, and after listening to the report of the Zhongshu Sheren, the The paperwork is also ready. At the same time, while listening to Zhongshu Sheren's words, Xun You had already figured out how to deal with it in his mind, and he directly expressed his opinion to him, which turned out to be three-in-one.

"Since that's the case, let's go and deal with it after repairing it."

Yang Xiu from Zhongshushe bowed slightly, then turned around, but was slightly surprised when he saw Liu Ye: "General?"

"It's okay, you go down first." Liu Ye waved his hand, Yang Xiu was very interested, turned around and retreated.

"Gongda."

"General?"

Xun You looked very pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly got up, but because he knelt for too long, his legs became numb, so he couldn't help but tilted to the side, and Liu Ye hurried forward to support him.

"careful."

Liu Ye had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and stepped forward to support Xun You. The two clasped hands and looked at each other. They couldn't say anything for a while, and thousands of words were held in their hearts. In the end, they still didn't speak, but just clenched their hands.

"Gongda, you have worked hard these days. This Luoyang city looks brand new, and it seems to be better than before Dong Zhuo's chaos." Liu Ye laughed.

Xun You has always been ordered to be the prime minister in Luoyang, and he has worked very hard. Basically, he has to deal with major and minor matters. Although Yang Xiu and others were appointed as Zhongshu Sheren, they have actually been very hard.

Since Liu Ye led his army out of Yanzhou to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he has been sitting in Puyang himself to prevent the Yellow Turban bandits from surrendering and rebelling. He also sent troops to Yuzhou because of Yuan Shu's incident. Therefore, although they are not far away from Xun You, it is nearly two years Time is gone.

"General, sit down."

After reuniting with Liu Ye after a long absence, Xun You put aside the government affairs at hand for the time being.

"The general's conquest of Yuan Shu this time, the military power is grand, and in terms of strength in the world, no matter which princes are no match for the general." Xun You said with emotion: "Since the second emperor Huan Ling, the majesty of the Han Dynasty has been declining, but it seems that the general Soon things will be righted."

Liu Ye sighed: "Easier said than done? Although a certain army defeated Zhang Xun's 60,000 troops in Yingchuan, unexpectedly, Cao Mengde took advantage of it and easily captured Jiujiang County."

"It's not necessarily a bad thing for Cao Cao to capture Jiujiang County." Xun You smiled slightly: "Huainan was originally the place where the Fourth World War was fought. If our army occupies Jiujiang County, whether it is Jiangdong Sun Ce or Xuzhou Cao Cao will definitely lead the army to attack. I have the power of an army to fight against Sun Cao and Sun Cao, and the victory or defeat is between brothers. It is a clever plan for Jiujiang County to send Cao Cao to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight."

"Yes, besides this, our army also lacks a navy. Without a capable navy, it will take some time for the imperial court to subdue the two prefectures of Jing and Yang." Liu Ye shook his head.

"Training sailors? Then Luoyang is the best place to choose." Xun You came to the spirit: "There is a port in the north of Luoyang called Mengjin. Mengjin Port is connected to the Yellow River in the north and is opposite to Hedong County. If you train sailors on the Yellow River, In the future, it may not be impossible to run rampant on the Jianghuai River."

"Someone asked for orders to dig the Xuanwu Pool on the Luoshui River, so that the sailors can get used to the Xuanwu Pool, how about training in the Yellow River in the future?"

Hearing Xun You's suggestion, Liu Ye's eyes lit up.

"What Gongda said is a good idea, it can be implemented quickly."

Learning to swim is also a gradual process. Learning to swim does not directly throw people into the big rivers to learn, because most of them will drown directly. Generally, learn standard movements first, then practice in shallow water, and then go to deep water after getting familiar with the water.

During the Han Dynasty, the Yellow River was far from being as narrow as it was later. It was cut off all the year round, and the water volume was very large. It was called Jiang and He together with the Yangtze River. Moreover, the morale of the Yellow River at this time was relatively stable in history. About a hundred years ago, Emperor Hanzhang, the third emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, ordered water conservancy expert Wang Jing to control the river. After Wang Jing's governance, the Yellow River was safe and sound for nearly 800 years. "Wang Jing ruled the river without any trouble for a thousand years".

"Since this is the case, Gongda will handle this matter immediately in the near future. The training of sailors needs to be done quickly, the sooner the better!" Liu Ye clenched his fists and said.
