In October of the third year of Chuping, Liaodong Gongsun Gong surrendered in Xiangping. Under the pressure of Huang Zhong's troops and Zhao Yun's troops, the two counties of Daifang and Lelang also surrendered one after another. So far, the entire territory of Youzhou was under Liu's control.
Lin's control, and Zhang Fei's troops subsequently captured Wandu. King Yun Yiyimo of Guochuan was defeated and committed suicide, while his brother Baqi and his tribe surrendered to Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei followed Liu Lin's military order to move the Goguryeo people to
Daifang, Lelang and Liaodong counties burned down Wandu, and the Goguryeo kingdom was destroyed. In December of the third year of Chuping, Liu Lin led his army back to the army and ordered Huang Zhong to be Zhonglang General to guard Liaodong, and Xun You to be the general.
The prefect of Liaodong handled government affairs, and the three counties of Fang, Lelang, and Xuantu were withdrawn and placed under the jurisdiction of Liaodong County.

make.
During this period, many major events happened. First, Cao Cao defeated the 300,000-strong Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army in Jibei, and selected the elite Qingzhou soldiers. He then controlled Yanzhou and established a base in Yanzhou. For a time, heroes from all over the country joined him.
Cao Cao's army seemed to be gradually getting fuller, and Yuan Shao of Jizhou also wiped out the remaining forces of Qu Yi, so that Qu Yi took the remaining soldiers to Bingzhou. At the same time, he relied on Ju Sue, Feng Ji and other advisers to win over the wealthy families in Jizhou and select
The sons of aristocratic families served as officials and recruited troops and horses, allowing him to quickly control Jizhou. However, Yuan Shu in Jianghuai took the opportunity to expand his power in Jianghuai, recruiting troops and horses, with 300,000 troops and a thousand generals, like the trend of the leader of the princes. Jingzhou's
However, after Liu Biao received the support of the two major local forces, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao, he quickly took over the four southern counties of Jingzhou, and all nine counties of Jingzhou and Xiang were in Liu Biao's hands.
One night before the new year, Liu Lin and his five hundred guards galloped back to Jixian County because he received an urgent report from home that his father Liu Yu was seriously ill and was in critical condition. When he rode to the gate of the mansion, he
Except for Huang Zhong and Xun You who were heading to Liaodong, all the officials and generals from Jianzhou County had arrived. "My lord, please see me! My lord, you have had a hard journey!" Under the leadership of Xun Yu, everyone came to Liu Lin one after another.
After saluting, Liu Lin nodded to everyone and said, "You don't have to be polite!" After that, he stepped forward and took Xun Yu's hand while walking and said, "How is my father now?" Xun Yu looked melancholy and sighed.
He took a breath and said: "I'm afraid my old lord is dying. Now I just hold on for a while and want to see my lord!" Upon hearing this, Liu Lin quickly let go of Xun Yu and ran to the backyard.
Along the way, Liu Lin was anxious. Many maids and servants saluted Liu Lin. Liu Lin ignored them and rushed directly into the backyard. When he arrived at Liu Yu's bedroom, he saw Mrs. Liu and Diao Chan already waiting here.
The eyes of both of them were red. Liu Lin bowed to Mrs. Liu and said, "Mother, the child is back!" Mrs. Liu nodded, holding back her tears and said, "My son, go see your father quickly. He has already chanted
How many times have you done it!"
At this time, an old man with gray hair and boyish face walked out of the bedroom. This man was Hua Tuo. When he saw Liu Lin, he saluted Liu Lin and said, "Master, go and have a look!" Liu Lin glanced at Hua Tuo and knew that Hua Tuo
Since he said this, his father's time must have come. Liu Lin's eyes suddenly filled with tears. He rushed in, knelt down under Liu Yu's bed, and cried: "Father, the child is back!"
Liu Yu was originally expressionless on the bed, but when he heard Liu Lin's cry, he felt as if he had suddenly recovered and regained his energy. He struggled to sit up. Liu Lin quickly stepped forward to help him, and Liu Yu pulled him away.
He held Liu Lin's hand and said: "Lin'er, you are finally back. My father thought he would never see you for the last time!" Liu Lin quickly comforted him: "Father, you will get better. You must take care of yourself!"
"Liu Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "Children, don't I know my body yet? I know the deadline has come and I won't survive tonight. As a father, I want to ask you a few words!" After he finished speaking, he
He glanced around and said, "You all, go down!"
Liu Lin was stunned and was about to stop him, but when he saw Liu Yu's firm look, he didn't say anything. He just waited quietly for his father, waited for those people to go out and closed the door. At this time, Liu Yu said: "Crazy
Son, tell me if you want to be the emperor in front of a big man!" As soon as Liu Yu's words came out, Liu Lin was frightened, but he was extremely calm. He knew that his father had always made him work hard, just to earn back his ancestors.
It was nothing more than glory, but now he has gone further and further, far exceeding his father's expectations. Although his father didn't say it in his heart, he must have waited for him to say it. He nodded and said: "Father, I really want to do this."
This man’s emperor!”
Liu Yu glanced at Liu Lin, and suddenly smiled and said: "Well, you are worthy of being my son. He dares to do what he wants. He is really a good man!" After saying this, he sighed and said: "But have you ever thought that even though the man is in trouble now?
, the country is unstable, but the lineage of the late emperor has not been extinct, and their prestige is still there. If you force yourself to come forward, you will surely disgust the people of the world and make you lose the power of the world!" Liu Lin was shocked, he had never thought of this.
, just thinking that he is also a member of the clan and has the qualifications to aspire for the throne. Now his father's words made him understand that Jiang is still hot. He quickly said respectfully: "Father, please make it clear!"
Liu Yu didn't say anything. He stared at Liu Lin closely and then said: "I think you should know what to do. As a father, I don't want to say more!" After saying this, he added: "You let them all
Come in!" Liu Lin knew that his father was arranging the funeral arrangements. His nose felt sour, he kowtowed in front of his father, strode out, and invited Mrs. Liu and other major Youzhou officials who were waiting outside into the bedroom.
.
At this moment, Liu Yu's face was no longer as rosy as before. Instead, he looked exhausted, and his eyes were slowly dulling. He said softly: "You are all my loyal ministers in Youzhou. You have assisted my father and son for many years. You are loyal and respectful.
, I, Liu Yu, understand in my heart that now that I am about to go to the west, I will entrust him to you. My son Liu Lin has outstanding talents and is both civil and military. From now on, I hope you will assist my son to achieve great things. Believe me.
I will definitely not treat you badly!" After saying this, he glanced at Liu Lin with a smile, and then said to Xun Yu: "Mr.
Will treat my Liu family favorably!" After saying this, he glanced at Mrs. Liu who was wiping away tears and said, "I have no chance to see my grandson born. I hope Mrs. Liu will tell me as soon as possible after her grandson is born!"
After finishing, he slowly fell on the bed. Liu Lin was shocked and hurried forward. He felt a light touch on Liu Yu's body. He knew that Liu Yuxi had gone, and immediately knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
