Annexing the three states,
The crumbling Han Dynasty in the past finally had a breath of recovery.
But Lu Yan felt that it was still not enough.
April 194,
Kunlun slaves who were transferred from Africa in large numbers are starting to cultivate on the plains.
Holding whips in hand, the officials responsible for managing the farmland couldn't help but roar,
Because according to the "passing examination law", if they cannot receive enough food after autumn, they will be dismissed from office or jailed at worst!
So, these Kunlun slaves have to move and rest at any time?
In the eyes of the dianong officials, they simply wanted to send him to death!
In Chang'an City, a Taoist temple was renovated.
Adhering to the principle of paying five buckets of rice to join the religion, Zhang Luze continued to start his great cause!
When he was bored in his spare time, Zhang Lu would go to the clan mansion to visit Liu Zhang, for no other reason than to mock him!
Every time Zhang Lu went there, the two of them would fight like reckless men.
Regarding this, the guards responsible for guarding the clan's mansion also looked melancholy.
On this day, when Zhang Lu was preaching the Five Pecks of Rice religion on the street, Lu Yan happened to pass by on horseback.
Looking at Lu Yan, Zhang Lu quickly shouted: "Everyone, listen up, Shangzhu State is also a member of our Five Pecks of Rice Sect!"
As Zhang Lu finished speaking, the people around him stared at Lu Yan.
Under everyone's gaze, Lu Yan twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "Everyone is friendly!"
"I want to join the religion, I want to join the religion!"
"Five buckets of rice, I'll accept it!"
Just when Lu Yan was not sure about admitting it, Zhang Lu looked at the congregants and said with joy on his face: "Don't be anxious, everyone, come one by one!"
Looking at Zhang Lu with the corner of his mouth twitching, Lu Yan wanted to go up and stab him, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
This guy has no other pursuits, just preaching, and it doesn’t endanger the people, so that’s not the case!
But if anyone else dares to preach like Zhang Lu in such a flamboyant way, Lu Yan will definitely make him understand that bullshit is bullshit and don’t take Lu’s words as a joke!
Two days later, in the court hall, young Liu Xie seemed to be slightly tired.
Looking at him, Lu Yan knew that this guy was dishonest. He had three concubines all of a sudden and he was too busy!
If you are like this at such a young age, you will definitely die young in the future!
Fu Wan's daughter, Fu Shou, Dong Cheng's daughter, Dong Guifei, Wu Yi's sister, Wu Guifei.
Good guy, Lu Yan didn't have as much fun as Liu Xie!
But that's all, he didn't come here to pursue beauties, a manly man would definitely snatch the little Joe!
When everything this year was on track, Lu Yan began to gradually shift his focus to Sili!
Because in the past two years, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have been repairing Luoyang City. With the help of slaves and the Kunlun slaves who joined later, they have initially recovered!
Shangzhu Guofu,
Lu Yan was grilling lamb chops in the front yard, and the military commanders next to him were Dian Wei, Ma Chao, Hua Xiong, Ma Dai, and Zhang Ren and Pang De who were transferred from Guangyuan and Xiliang.
As for the civil servants, Jia Xu and Zhang Song were the only ones, and the rest were either enforcing the laws of the imperial court or governing the local areas in Yizhou.
It’s not that he has no people left, but the territory is too big and he needs time to digest it.
For example, Wu Lan, Wu Ban, Yang Huai, Gao Pei, Ling "ting" Bao, Deng Xian, Liu Sui, Lei Tong, Liu Xun and others!
Can't these people lead troops in battle?
But Lu Yan has three states, not to mention the largest Yizhou and Liangzhou, which requires many generals!
So...he really has no one left!
"Eat, eat, eat, you're welcome. After today, I will go north to Sili, and there will be tough battles ahead!"
As he spoke, Lu Yan passed down the mutton chops in his hand.
"Brother, when do you think we can pacify the Central Plains?"
Looking at Lu Yan curiously, Dian Wei couldn't help but ask,
And when Dian Wei finished speaking, Lu Yan said with a smile on his face: "In three years, I will take you to conquer the Central Plains in three years!"
After completely letting go of the Black Shadow Corps, is Lu Yan short of food? No, he lacks talents!
What was lacking most in the late Eastern Han Dynasty was talent!
As long as Zhuge Liang can leave the mountain now, Lu Yan will go to Longzhong single-handedly and drag this kid over to become a military advisor!
Zhuge Liang: Liang is only thirteen years old, what do you think?
"Then if you think about it, it won't take long!"
Dian Wei's face was full of oil as he gnawed on the mutton chops, with a look of laughter on his face.
But looking at Dian Wei, everyone fell silent.
Because things like war are not as simple as Lu Yan said, and the Central Plains will be settled in three years.
Just when everyone had finished eating and drinking, Lu Yan sat on a chair and rubbed his brow.
At this time, Cai Wenji came behind him and said, "Husband, let me rub it for you!"
"Thank you ma'am!"
Speaking with a smile on his face, Lu Yan couldn't help but put down his hand.
At this time, Cai Wenji put her hands on both sides of him and said: "Although I don't know the court, I also know the responsibilities on you. If you are really tired, don't forget, I am still waiting for you at home!"
After listening to Cai Wenji's words, Lu Yan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, madam, these things are nothing to me!"
And the moment the two sides looked at each other, the charming atmosphere couldn't help but rise.
The next morning, Lu Yan got dressed and walked out.
I happened to see Diao Chan coming forward with a dinner plate.
Looking at her, Lu Yan couldn't help but step forward, put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Give up? Don't want to kill me?"
"Master, stop making trouble!"
Lifting Lu Yan's hand, Diao Chan walked away swaying her slim waist.
But looking at Diao Chan's back, Lu Yan couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Forget it, I'll deal with you next time I come back!"
After leaving the city to inspect the weapons manufacturing bureau, Lu Yan began to organize his army for the expedition.
This time I brought Dian Wei, Ma Chao, Zhang Ren, and Ma Dai.
Hua Xiong led 50,000 troops to garrison Chang'an, while he led 40,000 troops northward!
When the generals below gathered together, Lu Yan mounted the red rabbit horse and said: "Go to war!"
"Whoosh!"
Under the strong wind, the dragon flag flutters,
Looking into the distance, Liu Xie returned to the palace under the care of the eunuchs.
Although he is young, he also understands that today's big man must rely on the man in front of him, and he is also the hope of the big man's revival.
Unless absolutely necessary, Liu Xie knew that he could not have any conflict with the Shangzhu Kingdom in front of him!
What's more, Shangzhu Kingdom basically never refused his request!
Lu Yan: It's okay. Just be happy. I'm looking for some concubines for you. If that doesn't work, let's draft girls!
Passed by Hongnong and arrived at Luoyang.
The passes in various places here have already been recovered.
Looking at Zhang Liao and Gao Shun in the city, Lu Yan couldn't help but said: "Thank you for your hard work, Wenyuan, Hengping!"
"For the big man!"
Holding their hands in salute, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun couldn't help but smile.
"How is the Eight Passes of Luoyang? Has the repair been completed? What about the garrison situation?"
Looking at the two people, Lu Yan couldn't help but ask,
"The eight passes have been repaired, and there are 5,000 soldiers in each place. It is absolutely impregnable! But in Sili, the Baibo army often plunders! Wenyuan and I have been targeting him, but the other side is too cunning!"
Looking at Lu Yan, Gao Shunze explained,
Hearing this, Lu Yan frowned and said, "In that case, we will completely defeat the Bai Bo Army this time, and then enter Hedong. Let's have a collision with Yuan Shao, the fourth generation and the third prince!"
Seeing what Lu Yan said, everyone around him burst out laughing.
Because everyone knows that Lu Yan obviously doesn't take Yuan Shao seriously.
Jizhou, Yecheng,
When Yuan Shao learned that Lu Yan had led his troops to Luoyang, he had doubts in his heart, because now Lu Yan had three choices: fight Cao Cao in Yanzhou, go south to Jingzhou to beat Liu Biao, or go north to attack himself.
But after thinking about it, Yuan Shao felt that he had the least chance of being beaten, because he had the largest territory and the most troops.
He dominates Youzhou, Jizhou, Bingzhou, and most of Qingzhou. How could he come back and cause trouble for him?
Lu Yan: I’m beating you because you’re blind!
