Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 883
On the ninth day of September in the year [-] of the Han Dynasty, Cao Rui, the ruler of the Wei Dynasty, led his clan, civil and military officials to sacrifice to the ancestral temple, issued an edict to abdicate, and surrendered to the Han Dynasty.The defenders everywhere were ordered to lay down their weapons and stop resisting.

At Hulao Pass, Cao Kai and Xiahouba wept bitterly. Xiahouba scolded Sima Yi and blamed Sima Yi's rebellion against Wei for the country's subjugation.

In Xingyang, Cao Zhi sang wildly after drinking, and danced his sword like crazy. He was no longer romantic and suave; Wang Chang, Wang Xiang and others stayed behind closed doors.

Xinzheng, Guo Huai sighed endlessly: When is it?Fate!Zhang Hu stamped his feet and beat his chest, why would he surrender without avenging his father's revenge, and quietly left the barracks without a trace.Guo Yi lamented: Father, it's a pity that you died young, if you were here, you would definitely be able to turn the tide.

At Hangu Pass, Chen Tai remained silent; the youngest son of Du Zhongyou smiled and said to his brother Zhong Yu, "It should have been like this a long time ago, but it's a pity that the world is peaceful, and I have no use for it."

Cheng Gao, the veteran Man Chong lamented that he was unable to return to heaven, and died half a month later with a malignant sore on his back.

Cheng Wu escaped from Hanzhong and survived the Battle of Shangyong. Hearing the news, he went away to Liaodong incognito, and then entered Jeju. Zhou Yuan saw that he was very wise and debating, so he took him in as a counselor, but no one knew that he was Cheng Yu's son, Cheng Wu. .

Qu'a, Lu Xun, Xu Huang, and Zhou Xin recruited nearly [-] surrendered soldiers, kept the elite, and sent the rest back home with money and food. The Han generals gathered in Luoyang.

On September 28, Zhou Cang led the army into Luoyang, and he was full of emotions when he visited his hometown again.He said to Sha Zan and others: "When I first arrived in Luoyang, it was when Shi Changshi was in chaos, but Luoyang was flourishing; Sheng. Fortunately, no soldiers were used, otherwise the common people would suffer again."

Sha Zan said with a smile: "My son-in-law still remembers the poem written by Yue Zhang: Prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer. From now on, this situation will never happen again under my great man's rule."

Cao Rui presented the letter of surrender, the household register money book, and implored Zhou Cang to allow him to return to his hometown.

Zhou Cang sighed: "I feel sorry for Meng De, and his heirs should protect him." So he ordered Yushan to send out a thousand personal guards to protect Cao Rui, and said to Cao Rui, "I can't bear to demolish Meng De's temple, but I will be with you." If it doesn't make sense, you can only do it, and you can sacrifice it with me."

"Mr. Cao was worried about the danger and defeat of the country, and out of the bitterness of the people. He led the righteous soldiers to punish the thieves for the world. He has made great achievements and great virtues. It can be said to be the same." This may be the best evaluation Zhou Cang can give Cao Cao.

"The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Success or failure is turned away. The green hills are still there, and the sunset is red for a few times. The white-haired fishermen and woodcutters are used to watching the autumn moon and the spring breeze. A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet. How many things have happened in ancient and modern times? , It's all a joke." This is what Zhou Cang sang when he left.

Many Cao clans died at the hands of the Han army. Cao Hong, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhang, Cao Zheng, Xiahouhui, Xiahoufeng, Xiahou and nearly a dozen people, the Cao family had nothing to say about Zhou Cang's evaluation.Look at the military power of the big man again. I have only heard of the military parade in Peijun. What I saw today is well-deserved. How can it be invincible with such a powerful army?
On September 29, Xun Chen, the second chancellor, and Yang Rui, the official minister, arrived.Who would have thought that Xun Yu and Xun You, the most outstanding members of the Xun family, failed to complete their efforts in assisting the Cao family, but Xun Chen became the hero of the Han Dynasty.The main work of Xun Chen and Yang Rui is to appease the officials, count the household registration, and sort out the account books.

Afterwards, Hanchen rushed from Jinan to Luoyang one after another, and various academies and ministries moved to Luoyang for office. Liu Xun, Liu Ming, and Liu Liang rebuilt the ancestral temple, and the city of Luoyang doubled in size.

On the seventh day of October, Emperor Liu Xie finally returned to his old capital. He recalled that when he escaped from Chang'an, he was bumpy and displaced, starved of food, and slept in the wilderness.The past was so vivid that he couldn't help but shed tears, and he really came back in his lifetime.

On the eighth day of October, Liu Xie issued an edict to return the capital to Luoyang.He wanted to discuss amnesty with Xun Chen and others, but he was persuaded by everyone: offenders should be dealt with according to the law, and they can only be reduced according to the situation of their correction, and amnesty should not be repeated.

Cao's wish to make Cao Jie his concubine did not come true, so Liu Xie only made Cao Jie his concubine.The second son is mediocre and can only assist Zhang Lu in managing the imperial property.

With Liu Xie's edict, it was announced that the great Han would rule the world again, but the imperial power had been replaced by a constitutional monarchy.The territory of the Han Dynasty has doubled, reaching Yingzhou in the east, the sea in the south, Congling in the west, and extremely cold places in the north. Thousands of 500 million, but it should be noted that there were only 600 million at the end of the Three Kingdoms in history, and only 760 million when they returned to Jin!

Sun Quan, king of Nanyue, sent Zhuge Jin to congratulate him.In the past two years, Sun Quan went west to expand another three thousand miles. At this time, he was entangled and painful: the vast land was in front of him, the weak natives could not be crushed by the army, and his own population was too small, too small. Ten years is not enough to reproduce more generations, and millions of people sprinkle five thousand miles of land like stones into the sea. What is the use of seizing more land?
Named after the Ganges River, then set up Hengzhou, and Zhuge Ke was the shepherd of Hengzhou.So far, South Vietnam has Hengzhou, Taizhou, Mainzhou, and Yuezhou, which greatly exceed the original Jiangdong.Zhuge Ke built a large warship in Hengzhou, and Nanyue became the overlord of the southwestern waters. The next year, Quan Cong, the commander of the navy, attacked from afar to the Red Sea, robbed Kunlun slaves and countless new grains and returned.

In Liu Xie's plan, he wanted to promote Zhou Cang as king, but Zhou Cang refused.Xun Chen, Xu Shu, Lu Xun, and Zhou Enfenghou will not lose Liu Xie's face.

Zhou Cang seemed to throw away the shopkeeper, and entrusted all the affairs to Xun Chen, Xu Shu, Lu Xun, Yang Rui, Zhou Xin and others, but actually observed secretly, and found that everything was as he expected, so he simply retreated behind the scenes, a month later Moved to Jinan.

At the end of the year, Pei Yuanshao died of wind and cold at the age of 65. Pei Feng did not send him to the Hall of Martyrs but was buried in Woniugang.Pei Yuanshao volunteered to be a school lieutenant since he was a child, and finally became the commander of an army, and he got his wish.The old people left one by one, Zhou Cang was very sad.

Soon, Zhou Cang summoned craftsmen to dig grottoes in Yunmen Mountain, Qingzhou, and carved portraits: Zhang Jai, Dian Wei, Hua Xiong, Pei Yuanshao, Bo Cai, Yu Jin, Huang Zhong, Hao Zhao, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, Guan Hai, Fang Kai , Qi Mao, Zheng Lun... Zhou Wen, Zhang Jiong, Chen Deng, Zhao Yu, Liu Zheng, Wang Lie, Wang Xiu... Hua Tuo, Liu Hong, Mu Dong, Zhang Yin, Han Chong, Wang Dachui... Wei Yan.

Collectively known as Cloud Gate 28.Many people complained about this: Who are Mu Dong, Zhang Yin, Han Chong, and Wang Dahui?What merits does Wei Yan have in the great man?It's just that due to Zhou Cang's prestige, he didn't dare to say more; Zhou Cang laughed it off without explaining it when he heard about it.

Mu Qiu explained: This is for the adults to remember the deceased, not to show their achievements, nor because of the meritorious service made by the great man.Zhou Cang didn't correct it after hearing about it.

Mu Qiu persuaded Zhou Cang to remarry for Zhou Xin many times and have more children, but Zhou Cang just smiled: Why do I need to bother about such things?
