Lu Yi and others watched Cao Cao's army retreat, and they all laughed wildly.
Zhang Xiu, in particular, burst out laughing.
He has never been so happy since his uncle died in the war!
Especially when he followed Jia Gong's advice and surrendered to Cao Cao, Cao Cao not only occupied his aunt, but also wanted to poach his general Hu Che'er.
Now, the great revenge has finally been avenged.
This revenge is more satisfying than the last time he killed Dian Wei, captain of Cao Cao's personal guard, and his eldest son Cao Ang!
Zhang Xiu looked at Lu Yi and nodded secretly.
Or, if you follow him, you will have a real chance to return to Wuwei with these songs until you die.
After Cao Cao's army retreated, Lu Yi left Wenpin behind to arrange manpower to guard Wancheng and Jingbei, while he led the rest of the men and the army back to Xiangyang.
Zhang Xiu took Hu Che'er and other original troops, as well as food and grass, and headed directly to Xuzhou to support Zhao Yun and prevent Yuan Shao from attacking.
After returning to Xiangyang, Lu Yi held a banquet in honor of the leaders of the major gentry in Jingzhou, and introduced the new Jingzhou Mu Zhuzhi and Zhizhong Hengjie, and everyone cooperated in the management.
Afterwards, Lu Yi went to meet Huang Zhong under the leadership of Heng Jie.
Huang Zhong was arranged by Hengjie to live in a residential house in Xiangyang.
Huang Zhong was not willing to surrender before.
Hengjie guaranteed Huang Zhong to Chen Deng in his own capacity.
When Lu Yi followed Heng Jie to a private house, he saw Huang Zhong shirtless, lying in the hot sun and basking in the sun.
When Hengjie walked in, he stood up to say hello.
Seeing Hengjie following Lu Yi, Huang Zhong lay down again.
Heng Jie led Lu Yi over.
Hengjie said softly: "Old General Huang, Marquis Wu has come to see you in person."
Huang Zhongyong grabbed a handkerchief from his side, covered his face, and suddenly started sobbing: "I have no face to see Jingzhou Mu!"
Lu Yi sighed, patted him on the shoulder lightly and said, "Old General Huang, the great revenge of Jingzhou Mu has been avenged, so what can you complain about?"
"Moreover, General Huang fought until the end."
"For Liu Jingzhou, that's enough!"
"The dead are dead."
"Those who are alive must carry on."
"If you always dwell on the past, what's the point of living?"
After Lu Yi stayed in the private house for a while, Huang Zhong felt better.
Later, Lu Yi introduced Huang Zhong to meet Shi Huan and Nangong Yan.
The three of them had a discussion.
Huang Zhong was actually on par with Shi Huan!
Slightly inferior to Nangong Yan.
A hearty fight restored Huang Zhong's energy.
That afternoon, Huang Zhong left with Lu Yi.
After that, Lu Yi asked Zhu Zhi and Heng Jie to help prepare some treasures. On the third day, Pang Degong acted as a matchmaker and rushed to Huang Chengyan's house in Miannan to propose marriage to Huang Yueying.
On the fourth day, Lu Yi specially hosted a banquet for Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong, Zhu Zhi and Hengjie at the General's Mansion.
He is going back to Wu County soon, and the chance of coming to Jingzhou in the future is very small.
The governance of Jingzhou depends on these four people.
These four people, Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong, were originally the heads of the four major families.
Now the heads of the four major families have been executed, but the four major families are still there.
Lu Yi hoped that Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong could take the lead and set an example for the major gentry in Jingzhou, so that they could cooperate well with Zhu Zhi and Hengjie.
Especially since Huang Chengyan had a powerful intelligence network in his hands, and now he was his father-in-law, Lu Yi asked Zhu Zhi and Hengjie to cooperate with him and provide intelligence to Jiangdong Wu County at any time.
After making arrangements for Jingzhou, Lu Yi led others and the army to Jiangxia.
Now, the entire territory of Jiangxia has been captured by Zhang Liao and Han Dang!
Huang She, the son of Huang Zu, the former governor of Jiangxia, was killed by Zhang Liao.
Lu Yi personally introduced Zhang Liao, Han Dang and others to his son Liu Qi, and appointed Liu Qi as the prefect of Jiangxia, which was considered as giving Liu Qi enough face.
After staying in Jiangxia for two days, Lu Yi watched off Taishi Ci, Cheng Pu and others leading the army to Lujiang in Xiakou.
After that, Lu Yi took Chen Deng, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Huang Yueying and others by boat from Xiakou to Ah Port in Wujun District.
While still on the river, everyone saw a majestic building more than ten feet high pointing straight into the sky.
The whole building is like a sharp sword.
The hilt of the sword is upward, and the blade is straight into the ground.
Moreover, at this time, the topmost part of the building was already densely engraved with words.
Lu Yi saw the words at the top at a glance: Immortal monument, will exist forever in the world, heroic soul will live forever, protect me Jiangdong!
Under these words, there is a list of names, place of birth, official position, and time of death in battle.
Ling Cao, a native of Yuhang, Wu County, was a Sima of another department. He died in Xiakou on the 15th day of July in the third year of Jian'an.
Lu Yi looked at Ling Cao's name and sighed.
Ling Cao's remains were also in the accompanying coffin.
When Chen Deng led his army to capture Xiangyang before, Chen Deng said this when he met with Chen Deng.
However, even Chen Deng didn't know who killed Ling Cao.
According to the oral accounts of Xu Sheng and Zhou Tai, they were killed by a sneak attack by a sharpshooter.
Lu Yi immediately guessed who it was.
However, he did not dare to say it directly.
Once he said it, if he saw that person again in the future and the Ling family was in trouble, he might have to kill him.
As for the name of this immortal monument, when he went to Xinye, he asked Chen Deng to send people to Wu County to carve it out.
On the big ship, the entourage lowered their heads one after another when they saw the immortal monument.
The big ship arrived at Qu'a Port, and Zhang Hong, Gu Yong, Yan Xiang, Liu Ye, Chen Gong and other civil and military officials had already come to greet it.
Lu Ji, Lu Xun, Zhu Ran, Zhou Fang and others also came.
Beside Lu Xun and Zhu Ran, Ling Tong walked up wearing mourning.
Lu Yi personally carried Ling Cao's coffin with Nangong Yan, Shi Huan and Xu Shu to the shore and stopped in front of the immortal monument.
As Lu Yi lowered his head, he whispered: "A silent tribute to the soldiers who died in this battle. May their heroic souls return to their homeland with us!"
All civil and military officials turned to the immortal monument and bowed their heads in silence.
After that, Lu Yi did not go back to the government office directly, but went directly to Yuhang with the coffins of Ling Tong and Ling Cao.
After paying homage to Ling Cao, Lu Yicai and everyone returned to the government office.
At the government office, Lu Yi listened to reports from Zhang Hong, Gu Yong, Liu Ye, Yan Xiang, Chen Gong and others.
Chen Gong has arranged for Cao Cao's second daughter, Cao Jie, to go to the Lu family.
His wife Zhuge Ruoxue also came back safely and even met Cao Jie, and they are getting along well now.
Yan Xiang has established Wujun University and spent a lot of money to find twelve top paper craftsmen!
At this time, these top papermakers have begun to study how to use cheaper materials to make better paper.
In addition, he also found twenty top medical workers and joined Wujun University.
Among these twenty top medical workers, one named Hua Tuo came from Peiguoqiao County and he asked to be an official.
Yan Xiang did not dare to agree to this condition.
Medical workers belong to the Zhongjiu liu of the Three Religions and Nine liu. Except for the imperial doctors in the palace, no medical workers are allowed to serve as officials.
Yan Xiang could only wait for Lu Yi to come back to make a decision.
Also, over in Changsha, Zhang Ji, a younger brother of the Changsha Prefect, heard that Wu County was opening a university and recruiting medical workers, so he also came over.
Lu Yi listened to everyone's reports, one head and two heads high.
Too much content.
Lu Yi's hair stood up at the thought that he would be bound by these trivial matters in the future.
At this time, Liu Ye stood up and said: "Wu Hou, Fengchu Pang Tong has been staying in Wu County for more than half a year. Recently, he has become a little angry and wants to leave. Wu Hou had better meet him as soon as possible and decide on the specific positions he should be assigned. What official position?"
Lu Yi nodded and said: "It's late at night today and he disappeared. Let's do it tomorrow! You call him over tomorrow and I'll let him meet someone."
Liu Ye added: "There is another piece of intelligence news. How about we listen to it tomorrow?"
Liu Ye was left in Wu County to serve as the head of the Qilin Pavilion, responsible for collecting intelligence and recruiting talents.
Lu Yi smiled and said: "What news can't you tell now? Do you have to hear it tomorrow?"
Liu Ye, Zhang Hong, Gu Yong, Yan Xiang, Chen Gong and others looked at each other before saying: "Marquis Wu has just been tired from traveling and traveling and needs to rest."
Lu Yi said angrily: "Say!"
Liu Ye then said: "The battle report came from Xuzhou this morning. Yuan Shao defeated Yijing. Sun Zan, the former shepherd of Youzhou, set himself on fire and died. Youzhou was completely occupied by Yuan Shao——"
Liu Ye glanced at Lu Yi.
Lu Yi was speechless and said: "You continue!"
Liu Ye breathed out and said: "Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Shao and the governor of Qingzhou, combined with Yuan Shao's general Wen Chou, led 6,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry archers and marched south to Xuzhou."
"Wen Chou's six thousand cavalry suddenly attacked Langya County, and Tancheng County Magistrate Lu Bu abandoned the city and fled."
"Now, the coalition forces of Yuan Tan and Wen Chou have arrived at Pengcheng."
"Pengcheng County Governor Chen Jiao and Tian Yu joined forces to defend Pengcheng and suffered heavy casualties."
"Xuzhou Cavalry Captain Zhao Yun rushed to Pengcheng's aid urgently and just stopped the decline."
"However, intelligence shows that Yuan Shao sent another 30,000 troops to assist Yuan Tan and Wen Chou's coalition forces."
"As for Xuzhou, the entire army has been mobilized and cannot provide reinforcements."
"Guangling Cheng Lu Su mobilized 10,000 troops to rush for reinforcements, but at this speed, I'm afraid they won't be able to make it in time."
"A few of us got together and discussed that Pengcheng should not be saved."
