066 Canonize King Jin

"......Zhang Liao, Duke of Jin, has great merits and great virtues. Although Yi was out of reach, Zhou was specially granted the title of King of Jin, with twelve crowns, riding a golden chariot, driving six horses, using the emperor's carriage to patrol the Luanyi, and sending the police to come in. Zhu, build the Jin palace in Ye County, I admire this..."

"Thank you, your Majesty,"

Julu Yantao, in the Duke of Jin's mansion, Wen Yuan smiled bitterly and took the emperor's eunuch from the eunuch, and this guy completed the transformation from Duke of Jin to King of Jin. Below one person and above ten thousand people, It is only one step left to the throne of the emperor.

But Wenyuan was not too excited. He was always pragmatic and believed that whether it was the General, Duke of Jin, or the current King of Jin, except for changing uniforms and titles, they were actually similar. There was no change in power, but his subordinates People don't think so. The closer they are to the position of the emperor, the more prestige the lord, which means that one day the lord will take that step more naturally, so almost the entire group behind Wen Yuan, even those who have just joined the desire to follow. Many of Cao Cao's old subordinates encouraged Wen Yuan to advance to the throne. After all, by that time, these people had all been honored as heroes, and no one would want to be supported.

Wen Yuan has now understood that even he would not be able to go against the wishes of the entire camp behind him. Such consequences will only cause the whole world to collapse again.

So Wen Yuan took it naturally. Wen Yuan wrote a letter to resign three times as the imperial edict issued by the court, and for more than a month, Wen Yuan accepted the title of the emperor under the utmost expectations.

"Congratulations to the lord... Oh no, I'll call you the king in the future," Guo Jia smiled and said to Wenyuan.

"Yes, I am going to congratulate the king, I wish the lord to become a king and the world will be unified," the civil and military officials were also full of joy. At this time, there were no outsiders in the yard. They were all loyal confidants, and they did not avoid talking. What.

"King, cough cough,... I really can't adapt to this title. I will be called alone in the future. I will really become lonely in the future..." Wen Yuan said with a bitter smile with a big head.

"The king is right. He wants to call himself "orphan". Since he has become a king, he should have the demeanor of a king..." The original article had a little self-deprecating meaning in the far-reaching words. Unexpectedly, the counselor Dong Zhao continued seriously, and even more It gave Wen Yuan a headache. It seems that if these people don’t watch themselves ascend to the throne with their own eyes, they are afraid that they will die with their eyes open.

"Fuck, you are planning to usurp the throne. You guys don't have to bear the infamy that has been passed down through the ages. Fortunately, I have kept my hands. Even if one day we become independent on behalf of the Han Dynasty, we can't be the limelight on our own." Thinking of this, Wen Yuan He secretly glanced at Ju Su, Jia Xu, and Chen Lin, the representative figures among civil servants...

You should know that since Wen Yuan was not very happy to accept the throne, he had to compromise in the end. How could Wen Yuan not take this opportunity to offer some conditions to make his senior officials make concessions? In fact, it was a month ago , He reached a secret agreement with Ju Su and others. As for what kind of agreement this is, only the top leaders in these core circles know. And to reach this agreement, Wen Yuan was so tired of his mouth. The opportunity in front of him, coupled with his own prestige, finally his ideas were recognized by the core circles in the camp. In the end, Wen Yuan agreed to accept the enthronement.

So although Wen Yuan has been back to Yan Tao for more than a month, this past month has made Wen Yuan busy, and it is not as easy as fighting a battle on the front line. In the past month, except for Wen Yuan, In addition to being the king, many other things also happened.

In Xuzhou, Sun Quan finally withdrew his troops. Before the reinforcements of Zhang He and Gao Shun arrived in Xia Pi, Sun Quan wisely retreated back to Jiangdong. Sun Quan was still very self-aware of this. Jiangdong soldiers were not good at fighting in the infantry. How to deal with the two legions of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, with 100,000 auxiliary soldiers in battle, so Sun Quan retreated without much hesitation, and he walked very cleanly. In the Guangling area north of the Yangtze River, Sun Quan only left thousands of soldiers. The horse controls several cities, and such a small amount of troops can at best serve as an outpost.

Although Sun Quan did not capture Xia Pi, a major capital of money and grain, he also gained a lot of benefits. The treasury of more than a dozen cities in central and southern Xuzhou that were captured by Jiangdong soldiers were emptied. Although the people here fled before the war. Most of them were raped, but more than 100,000 people were raped. In addition, Cheng Pu also plundered in the Huai Si area. This time, the people brought back to Jiangdong by Sun Quan this time were 200,000.

It is estimated that Sun Quan is proud of this gain. Just imagine that with the 200,000 people moving in, Jiangdong is not sure how much fertile land will be reclaimed, and how many young and strong people can recruit soldiers.

Of course, Wen Yuan felt very painful after losing so many people, but thinking that the backup plan he had arranged had been lurking in Jiangdong smoothly, Wen Yuan felt a little relieved. Humph, Sun Quan, you are proud, you will be proud. Forget it, if one day you find that the benefits you swallow suddenly turn into poison that penetrates the intestines, will you still feel like you are now?

In addition to the complete end of the war in the south, another thing has happened this month. After court discussions, the proposal of the imperial court to move the capital repeatedly mentioned was finally confirmed. Just wait for the weather to warm up next year, and the emperor and the imperial court will move back. The old capital of Luoyang.

Wen Yuan and the emperor were very happy with this result. Both sides wanted to stay away from each other. Wen Yuan himself felt that it was easier to be uncontrolled, and the emperor was mostly looking for psychological comfort, even he knew. Not to mention moving to Luoyang, even if he moved to Chang'an, he could not escape the control of the Wenyuan Power Group. At this time, he was like a bird in a cage, just changing from one cage to another In a cage.

In addition to not having to worry about the slander, the emperor has another advantage in moving the capital, and mobilizing troops.

The emperor wanted to move the capital to Luoyang. Considering the importance of the emperor's identity, Sili's military power was obviously insufficient. In the past, the strategy of Hebei as the core of military power would inevitably be adjusted. After internal agreement, Wen Yuan decided to take the direct central army. The cavalry army was transferred to the surrounding area of ​​Luoyang, leaving only the Pojun camp and Zhonglei camp around him. This will strengthen the garrison of the imperial capital and increase the pressure on Jingzhou nearby. Wenyuan's future strategic direction will undoubtedly be the main focus. In the south, gradually moving the military focus southward is also in line with the overall strategic deployment. I think there are three Wenyuan who are back and the strongest legion eyeing them in the north, and Liu Bei may not have a good sleep every day in Jingzhou.

As mentioned before, Wen Yuan only had two personal troops, Pojun and Zhonglei, who were left by his side, because the navy army was also sent to Huainan by Wen Yuan. The navy suffered heavy losses this time in the southern expedition, but fortunately he survived from Songz. With thousands of remaining soldiers, these life-and-death veterans are the most precious wealth of the navy. Based on these personnel as the skeleton, I believe that the combat power of the navy army will be restored in no time.

In addition to the navy, the two legions of Yongzhou and Xuzhou were also affected by the disaster in the southern expedition. The soldiers who were damaged by other legions also needed to be transferred from the auxiliary soldiers. Of course, most of these plans will be after the spring plowing next year. Only after a period of training can the combat power of each legion be restored one after another. Wen Yuan roughly calculated that perhaps more than half a year later, Wen Yuan would start a new round of journey, and by then it was already 207 AD It's...

ps: There was a typo before. This southern expedition took place in 206, and there was a place written in 208 and it has been corrected.
