When Liu Bei arrived at Dongyi, Lord Dongyi also arrived at Youzhou. The accompanying soldiers sent him into the camp in fear, and asked for someone else to escort him on the grounds of physical discomfort. Taishi Ci saw that their expressions were extremely poor.
, it was uncomfortable to travel around like this, so I wanted to send someone to escort me. Many people were vying for this good job. Think about it, it would be great to be able to leave this frontier fortress and go to Luoyang, even if it can only stay for three or four days.
ah.
Taishi Ci selected four people among the people he trusted the most to accompany him.
Dong Hao Jun walked into Dong Zhuo's tent with some excitement. Dong Zhuo stood up, smiled, and held his hands. Dong Hao Jun was about to kneel down. Dong Zhuo quickly grabbed him and said: "You are the county prince given by the emperor.
You must not pay such a big tribute!" Lord Dongyi still said with great respect: "Dong Gong is so powerful in China that he has won hundreds of battles. Now he is guarding one side, making foreign enemies afraid and afraid to fight. How can I not pay tribute to such a hero?"
"What's more, Dong Gong is a Zhonglang general who leads elite troops. I have heard that Dong Gong defeated a hundred thousand soldiers of three Koreas in three days, wiped out the three Korean rebels in less than a month, and fought with Xinzhou and Xianbei rebels.
, with three thousand fine cavalry, they killed many Xianbei heads, and tens of thousands of people retreated without a fight...I heard..." Lord Dongyi didn't stop when he started talking. From the time Dong Zhuo first joined the army, Dong Zhuo didn't even stop.
I know how this person knows so many things.
He couldn't interrupt without permission, so he just listened.
But after listening for nearly half an hour, the other party didn't seem to have any intention of stopping.
Dong Zhuo took advantage of his short breath and said quickly: "You are tired from the journey, why don't you go back and rest first?"
"People in the mountains have long been accustomed to having Lieutenant Lu, a warrior, under Dong Gong's account. Donghao Youzhou is hundreds of miles away. He can go back and forth within a month, which makes me even feel guilty. I don't want to have Lieutenant Lu living with Donghao.
He was afraid of Goguryeo, but Duke Dong didn’t know that Goguryeo was evil. He killed my people, plundered back and forth, and committed all kinds of evil. Fortunately, he was favored by the emperor..."
Dong Zhuo's face turned a little pale, and he stared blankly at Mr. Dong Hao in front of him.
The next day, Mr. Dong Hao also came to see Dong Zhuo. Some soldiers said that Mr. Dong had important matters to go to Sanhan. Now he was not in the tent. Mr. Dong Hao was a little sad because he could not say goodbye to Dong Zhuo in person. When he left, he saw
Looking at the unfamiliar soldiers beside him, he smiled and said:
"What's your surname, Jun?"
The soldier smiled and replied: "My surname is Zhang, you can just call me Mengxu!"
...........
When the group arrived at Luoyang, the soldiers could no longer laugh. They looked blankly at the east main gate of Luoyang. The order of Luoyang had already known that Lord Donghao was coming and led his people to greet him. The soldiers were frightened.
They handed him over to the county magistrate and fled to Youzhou without looking back. Compared with the prosperous Luoyang, they suddenly felt that Youzhou was actually pretty good.
The county magistrate warmly welcomed Mr. Dong Hao and led him to the palace. In order to show his closeness to him, the emperor did not hold a court meeting to greet him. Instead, he wanted to receive him in private. Mr. Dong Hao was silent now.
After seeing Luoyang, the majestic city of the world, he was speechless. He had never seen such a city, nor had he imagined it.
After meeting Luoyang, he realized that the Luoyang he had originally thought of in his mind was so humble and not worth mentioning.
He couldn't even see where the walls of this majestic city were. It spread all the way, like a crouching dragon, and the local people were so crowded that the number of people in Dongyi was not as large as the number of people in an alley in Luoyang. Such a gap
, was something he had never thought about. He just wanted to laugh loudly now. Dongyi would be part of such a powerful empire from now on, but he wanted to see what Goguryeo would dare to do in the future.
The order of Luoyang led him to the entrance of the palace. Lord Donghao had not had time to see the grand scenery of Luoyang, so he was taken into the palace. Naturally, there was a different kind of scenery in the palace, and Lord Donghao still had no time to visit.
, he was taken to the Hall of Houde, where the emperor was waiting for him. After seeing the burly emperor in front of him, Mr. Dong Hao could not conceal his excitement and knelt down!
The emperor helped him up. Dongyi Jun was extremely excited and even a little speechless. He really had too many words in his heart that he wanted to talk to the emperor. The emperor warmly entertained him. No matter how he spoke, the emperor had no words.
Showing no hint of impatience or displeasure, he listened carefully and nodded from time to time, which moved Mr. Dong Hao even more.
In this way, after a few hours, the emperor smiled and ordered Huangmen to send Mr. Dong Hao away. The emperor repeatedly told him: "Nowadays, all major affairs in the court are under the jurisdiction of Situ Wangfu. You must do what you want."
Go find Wang Fu and discuss the matter of Dongyi with him..."
"I will remember it, thank you Your Majesty!!"
Afterwards, Huangmen sent him to Wang Fu's mansion in accordance with the emperor's edict. In order to ensure his safety, seven guards accompanied him.
.......
But in Dongyi, there have been earth-shaking changes. Since Liu Bei arrived, Cao Cao also handed over the construction of Dongyi itself to him. The construction of the new Happy Port, Liu Bei in Dongyi, was extremely popular with the local people.
When he was driving to explore around, he saw an old man on the road. He gave the car to the old man and walked on his own. How could such an official not be loved by the people?
His ability to do things was not bad, and he increased the work of farming. At the same time, after learning that Cao Cao was building the port, he also ordered people to build inns, restaurants, etc. around the port to attract the craftsmen and households brought by Cao Cao.
He personally visited Dongli and made detailed development plans for various places. Dongli had mines, woods, and cultivated fields. He was very happy. With these resources, even if he is lagging behind now, he will definitely be able to do so in the future.
In his own hands, it became a prosperous and wealthy county. He also opened an official school and personally taught some agricultural knowledge.
Cao Cao quietly watched his various measures and gave him a lot of help. At least in name, as the Prime Minister of the Three Koreas, he still had jurisdiction over this place. In essence, he only had supervisory power.
With the cooperation of the two, Dongyi developed even more rapidly. After the shipbuilders from Yangzhou arrived, Cao Cao built the port and everything about shipbuilding became smoother.
By the end of the 19th year of Jianning, a new huge port appeared in the southeast of Dongyi, and Cao Cao also built dozens of large ships, and he is still building them. Since he wants to trade, why should he be like Yangzhou? There is
There are more than four hundred ships, he thought to himself, and the Dongyi area has also undergone earth-shaking changes. There is cultivated land around it, and people have moved into houses.
Every family raised some livestock, and the fishery was not abandoned by Liu Bei. Some salt fields were discovered by him. The salt was transported to Sanhan in exchange for wealth and used to build Donghao. However, Liu Bei could only do so much.
Well, if you want to go further, you need a huge population, and the population in the Dongyi area is too small to carry out large-scale construction.
Cao Cao also knew this in his heart, and he was waiting. Next year, the 20th year of Jianning, he would start trading with the Yi country. He had already heard that although the Yi country was slightly stronger than the three Han Dynasties,
However, it is far from being a match for the Han Dynasty. As long as the Han Dynasty's fleet arrives, it cannot be said that it conquers the Yi Kingdom, but it is enough to make the other country obey and carry out foreign trade with itself. As for the details of the trade, it is completely up to itself.
In order to be able to achieve this, he also borrowed Taishi Ci from Dong Zhuo. He knew that Taishi Ci had gone to sea in the past and had experience with the navy. He hoped that Taishi Ci could help him and practice a battle.
In order to build a strong Han army that could experience maritime warfare, Taishi Ci was somewhat resistant to the naval army because he and Zhang Jiao were trapped overseas in the past.
However, Dong Zhuo personally ordered him to go to Cao Cao to help Cao Cao, but he had no choice. He knew that Dong Zhuo was also doing it for his own good. Now that Lu Bu was in Donghao, he could attack Goguryeo at any time and gain military exploits. Dong Zhuo did not have to reach his current status.
He is the only one who is impatient and must continue to gain military merit. This training in the navy is of course a good job.
When he arrived at Dongyi, Cao Cao was extremely affectionate to him. Cao Cao had such a character that he could talk happily to anyone and considered him a friend. Cao Cao had earlier recruited soldiers in Sanhan and handed them over to him.
After Tai Shici practiced, Cao Cao did not interfere. Although he had read the art of war, he was really not proficient in this method of naval warfare.
Since he was not proficient, he did not interfere.
The whole Dongli is gearing up and preparing for next year's foreign trade.
A group of thousands of troops appeared on the northeastern border of Dongyi. They were carrying bows and arrows, wearing furs, and their horses were struggling to advance on the snow. Fortunately, there was not much snowfall in Dongyi.
The horses were able to continue moving forward, and they entered the territory of Dongyi all the way, chatting and laughing, and discussing many interesting things in Dongyi.
The Donghao people are not good at fighting, but they are very good at escaping. There have been many times when Goguryeo failed to catch up with several fleeing Donghao people on horseback. Many veterans who had previously conducted Donghao territory were telling the story to the newcomers.
There are many things, how to find the Donghao people's villages, how to catch up with them, including how to resist some traps of the Donghao people.
The newcomers listened attentively. Every year, men in the tribe who are over sixteen years old will participate in such fighting and hunt the Donghao people as prey. This is their coming-of-age ceremony. They
They were treating the Donghao people as livestock for themselves, and they were moving forward happily. Suddenly, they spotted fireworks rolling up in the distance.
The old soldier suddenly raised his hand, and everyone fell silent.
The leader looked at it carefully, suddenly became happy, and said with a smile: "There is a village of Donghao people here! They are cooking, just right, I haven't eaten for a long time, I am a little hungry!"
"Hahaha, the Dongyao people have prepared a meal to welcome us, how can we refuse their kindness?!?" Some soldiers shouted excitedly, and the leader smiled and said coldly: "It seems,
I waited three years to make these Donghao people brave enough to act like this. Villages have already been built here. If we don't let them remember it, won't they be built in our territory?"
He turned back, looked at everyone, and shouted: "Brothers, pick up your spears, I'll go eat right away!"
He took the lead and rushed towards the village. Thousands of people also raised their weapons high and shouted loudly, hoping to scare those Donghao people who were preparing to eat. Indeed, they were scared to death while they were in the camp.
Lu Bu, who was resting inside, hurriedly ran out of the tent and asked with some confusion: "But another wild beast accidentally entered the tent?"
Several scouts pointed into the distance and said: "Colonel, a group of... rogue bandits are attacking!"
"Rogue bandits!! Hahaha!!" Lu Bu laughed loudly, whipped out the sword from his waist, and said with a smile: "These rogue bandits must have come from Goguryeo. Where did they flee to?"
"This...they are rushing towards us..."
"kindness???"
Since Lu Bu came to Dongyi, he has seen many wonderful and unheard-of things, but it has never been so outrageous. A group of bandits rushed towards the most elite cavalry of the Han Dynasty... Lu Bu was furious in his heart.
, and immediately asked the soldiers to get up and mount their horses and prepare to charge. They lined up on the high ridge and looked coldly below. Some of them had already drawn their bows.
These people were all Huns cavalry following Dong Zhuo. It was not difficult for them to draw their bows immediately.
Not long after, sure enough, a group of people rushed towards them in a chaotic manner, many of them were half-grown men, holding various weapons and equipment in their hands, and some people rode skinny horses and rushed towards them.
After passing through a forest, they came to these neatly formed Han cavalry, ready to attack.
Lu Bu was riding a horse at the front, looking at them coldly.
The excitement and ferocity on the face of the Goguryeo general who was rushing at the front gradually solidified. He stopped and stared blankly ahead. The entire team also stopped with him. After seeing the elite cavalry in front,
, they also fell silent. For a while, the atmosphere was very quiet. The leader was trembling all over. He recognized these troops.
In the past, weren't these the same armies that rushed to Goguryeo and arrested people everywhere to use as laborers?
But why do they appear here???
He opened his mouth and was about to speak, "Whoosh~", an arrow pierced his throat directly. He fell off the thin horse he was riding, blood spattered everywhere, and the old soldier behind him
They shouted: "Leave quickly!!" After shouting, they launched an attack on Lu Bu and the others. They wanted to protect the newcomers, many of whom were their nephews.
The newcomers were stunned for a moment. Many people fled around, and some people launched a charge together with the old soldiers. A ferocious smile appeared on Lu Bu's face. In his eyes, these people were more than a thousand stars.
For military merit, he took the lead in launching an attack. The soldiers roared past and hit those soldiers hard. This war could not be called a war at all. It was just a massacre.
Lu Bu took the lead and killed six or seven people, all covered in blood!
He had no intention of letting go of the fugitives and ordered his soldiers to continue the pursuit. These Goguryeo people had no way of escaping from the pursuit of the cavalry on foot. After all, they were not the Donghao people they were ridiculing.
