Chapter [334] Accompanying Capital Luoyang
Luoyang.
After the end of the Central Plains War, the countless peasants Yuan Shao abandoned in the Central Plains all fell into the hands of Lu Bu one after another. Under the leadership of Yang Xiu, construction began in the Luoyang area.
At the beginning, Dong Zhuo burned the capital of the great Han Dynasty with a fire. Although the city was completely destroyed, the main city wall remained, which also saved Luoyang's project a lot of trouble.
Repair the city wall, clean up the ruins in the city, and then rebuild.
After the completion of Luoyang, these peasant husbands directly took control of Luoyang, had Luoyang household registration, and were allocated land outside the city to cultivate.
The former capital once again glowed with prosperity, and became lively again from the no-man's land.
Luoyang is also a microcosm of today's world. As Lu Bu wiped out the princes one by one, the people under the Daqin territory lived a stable life.
The world is uncertain, and I dare not say how rich I am, but at least I don't have to worry about soldiers and bandits coming out to rob, and I don't have to worry about being captured as a strong man at any time, let alone worry about being decapitated.
In fact, the standard of prosperity in ancient times was not very high. There was no war in the world, and the people could eat their stomachs, and it was already a prosperous age.
But in troubled times, the common people's requirement is to cultivate land, and a few acres of Susukida is enough to make ends meet, and they are satisfied with their hunger and full meal.
A huge chariot was driving on the official road, headed towards Luoyang, and the front and rear of the chariot were guarding and clearing the way.
Chitu was pulling the chariot alone, walking freely and briskly, and Lu Bu's family was naturally inside the chariot.
"Luoyang seems to have returned to what it used to be." Cai Yan probed out of the carriage and said, looking at the completely new Luoyang City in the distance.
Lu Lingqi, who joined in the fun, also watched it together, and then looked away disappointed, "It's not that good, it's not as lively as Xianyang.
"Silly girl, where in the world can compare to Xianyang?" Cai Yan knocked Lu Lingqi on the head angrily, "You still lived here, remember?"
"Uh...don't remember." Lu Lingqi shook her head blankly.
Lu Lingqi was only four or five years old when she was in Luoyang, but now she has become a big girl. It has been almost ten years in a blink of an eye, how can she still remember what happened back then.
The car drove all the way into Luoyang, and pedestrians walked on the street in twos and threes.
Firstly, it is almost winter, and there are few pedestrians on the street. Secondly, Luoyang has just recovered, and it is far less prosperous than Xianyang.
"Yang Xiu has a heart, and even built a palace in Luoyang." Lu Bu looked out, and the end of the street was the imperial city.
"Husband, it's better to designate Luoyang as the accompanying capital." Cai Yan suggested.
Lu Bu nodded again and again, and said: "Indeed, since we have the imperial palace, it is more appropriate to list it as a companion capital. In the future, there will be a lack of food in Guanzhong, so we can still come to Luoyang to eat.
Even if Lu Bu developed the Houtao Plain and the Ningxia Plain, as the population of Xianyang gradually expands, there will definitely be food shortages in Guanzhong in the future.
The loss of transporting grain from Sichuan is too great, the best way is to come to Luoyang to solve the food problem.
The problem of eating here is not the problem of Lu Bu eating alone.
On the face of it, Lu Bu moved from Xianyang to Luoyang, is there enough food?
In fact, if Lu Bu moves to live in Luoyang, the army guarding the pass will follow, the harem will follow, the court officials will follow, and the family members of the officials will follow.
It seems that Lu Bu moved here alone, but in fact, all the nobles came here together.
For the aristocratic class that consumes the most food, and the army that spends the most food, after the two leave Guanzhong, the grain produced by the land in Guanzhong will be enough to supply the people in Guanzhong
In ancient times, the two cities of Chang'an and Luoyang were completely complementary and achieved each other.
One of them is listed as the capital, and the other will inevitably become the accompanying capital.
Chang'an has a favorable location in the middle of the country, and it will be very safe after the capital is established, but it will be particularly short of food.
While Luoyang is rich, economically sound, and transport is convenient, but lacks military advantages.
One is the national capital and the other is the accompanying capital, all problems can be solved.
Therefore, it is very necessary to designate Luoyang as the accompanying capital. After the world is in peace, it is not an exaggeration to use Luoyang as the core of development. After all, Luoyang has convenient transportation and is in the center of the world.
But these are all things to come. Lu Bu's family entered the palace in a chariot. The decoration style here is obviously different from that in Xianyang. For a while, the wives and daughters felt very fresh.
After the family was settled, Lu Bu left the harem, and Yang Xiu came to find him immediately.
"Meet the king."
"Excuse me." Lu Bu waved his hand and asked directly, "How is the situation on the front line?"
"The armies from all walks of life are all in place, with a total of 300,000 troops, and they have surrounded Xu County, ensuring that not a single bird can fly out of Xu County." Yang Xiu replied immediately.
There are 65,000 men in Zhangliao's route in the north, and 80,000 under Lu Xun and Gao Shun in the south.
In addition to the previous Battle of Poyang Lake, the soldiers of the three coalition forces were beheaded, and most of them were captured and incorporated into the Qin army. The strength of this part was also about 60,000.
Xiliang, Guanzhong, Hanzhong, and Shuzhong, all the garrisons in the four places were dispatched, and 25,000 people were dispatched from each place to attack the 100,000 troops.
With all the troops combined, there are now 300,000 troops outside Xu County, and Xu County is completely surrounded.
And Cao and Liu in the city have a combined army of only 60,000, and the two are not at the same level at all.
This is only because Lu Bu did not overdraw the war potential under his rule, otherwise it would be no problem to get another 300,000 troops. After all, Yuan Shao was able to get 500,000 troops in one go, and Zibu can naturally do it now. arrive.
But it's not necessary, it's just a waste of food and grass, dispatching 300,000 people is enough to give the Cao and Liu families face.
"Has Ma Jun arrived at the front line?" Lu Bu asked again.
*`~Back to the king, Tiangonghou has arrived at the front line a few days ago, personally leading the general supervisor and the military battalion to build various equipment, and it is estimated that the work will be completed before the beginning of winter.
In order for the unification war to go smoothly, Lu Bu transferred Ma Jundu to the front line and asked Ma Jun to personally supervise the construction of siege equipment.
The two major organizations, the General Supervisor and the Military Industry Battalion, have recruited all the skilled craftsmen in the world. Naturally, the work efficiency is needless to say, and it is easy to build siege equipment.
Lu Bu nodded, and then ordered: "Send an order to designate Luoyang as the accompanying capital."
"Of order." Yang Xiu immediately agreed, and then asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to change Luoyang's name?"
Chang'an no longer exists. Although the city is still there, the place name Chang'an has disappeared and was replaced by Xianyang. This is also a symbol of the Great Qin replacing the Han Dynasty.
For this reason, Yang Xiu asked Lu Bu if he wanted to change Luoyang's name.
"Uh..." Lu Bu pondered for a while, and said, "It's still called Luoyang, but the word can be changed, just change Luo" to "Liu".
After Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu established Luoyang as his capital, he thought that the word Luo with three dots of water was not in line with the temperament of Yan Han, so he changed Luoyang to Luoyang.
Therefore, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the official name of Luoyang (of Liaowang) was always "Luoyang", but the common people didn't understand so much, and the pronunciation of the two was exactly the same, and even the meaning was exactly the same, just changed a word.
"Your Majesty is wise! My great Qin is the virtue of water. Changing 'Luoyang' to 'Luoyang' just rejuvenates my great Qin's virtue." Yang Xiu immediately offered his flattery.
"Okay." Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Send an order to the front line, I will go to the front line to supervise the battle in the beginning of winter, and then launch a full-scale attack on Xu County.
"No." Yang Xiu took the order and left.
After Yang Xiu left, Lu Bu returned to the harem with his hands behind his back, and the war would start in a few days.
Although the set strategy is to encircle and not attack, it does not mean that the Qin army will always stand stupidly and commit crimes.
Surrounded and not aggressive, but will still attack from a distance, and then mixed with feint harassment.
The soldiers will not be allowed to carry the ladders to go foolishly, but the catapults and bed crossbows will continue to bomb Xu County, so that the enemy troops in the city will not have a day of peace.
From time to time, there will be another wave of feint attacks, pretending to carry the ladder to go around the city, so that the enemy troops in Xu County will always be in a state of frightened birds [the spirit will collapse in a short time.
