    Liu Bei was very depressed, extremely depressed.

    I had just given birth to a son, and I was just enjoying some pride. In the blink of an eye, Hulao Pass was gone, and all the pride was ruthlessly shattered by Yan Liang.

    The astonished Liu Bei couldn't believe how the Hulao Pass, which was said to be a barrier for one man and a barrier for ten thousand men, could be broken by Yan Liang in such a short period of time.

    It was not until the scout reported Zhang Fei that Yan Liang used psychological warfare to cause the Hulao defenders to kill each other and silently revealed that Liu Bei had to accept this cruel fact.

    "The strongest city in the world is also the easiest to disintegrate from the inside. Yan Thief's move is really poisonous." Even Zhuge Liang had to praise Yan Liang's strategy at this time.

    Liu Bei gritted his teeth, his face was gloomy and uncertain, his eyes were flashing with confusion, he had long forgotten the happy news that he had a son.

    "Military advisor, the tiger prison has been broken, what should I do now?" Liu Bei helplessly asked Zhuge Liang for help.

    Zhuge Liang pondered for a long time, then sighed helplessly: "Now that the tiger prison has been lost, the Yan thieves are very likely to take advantage of the situation and advance eastward. I think that the king will immediately order Yide to return to Puyang, and order the troops on the south bank to hold on to the city and never go out to fight.  "

    At this time, Zhao Yun said: "I heard that Yan Liang's army has a trebuchet called a city-breaking cannon. This object has a very strong attack power. It can even destroy the city of Luoyang. I am afraid that the cities on the south bank of our country will not be able to withstand this broken city."  The bombardment of artillery."

    With one word, everyone fell into silence. Even Zhuge Liang was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

    "What should we do according to Zilong?" Liu Bei asked with a frown.

    Zhao Yun did not hesitate.  Frankly said: "In my opinion, Hulao has been lost, and the barriers of the cities on the south bank are gone. To continue to defend it will only waste the strength of the army and the people. It is better to abandon all the land on the south bank, move the army and the people to Hebei, and rebuild the defense line on the north bank.  , defend yourself by the river."

    Liu Bei was shocked. Zhao Yun's suggestion was to ask him to abandon the Central Plains.

    But.  If we don't abandon the cities on the south bank, will we still be able to hold on to the Chu army's land and water advance in the future?

    In Liu Bei's eyes.  It began to flicker and waver.

    At this time, Zhuge Liang said sternly: "Zilong's plan is really harming the country!"

    Zhao Yun was taken aback and asked in confusion: "Why did the military advisor make such harsh remarks?"

    "The Central Plains symbolizes orthodoxy. I am the flag of Dayan. As long as there is a tree on the south bank, it means that Dayan has not given up on the Central Plains. The king, the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, still has the ambition to regain the Central Plains and wipe out the rebellion. If the king abandons  Going to the cities on the south coast is equivalent to announcing to the people of the world that the king has given up on the orthodoxy of the Central Plains. This will not only chill the hearts of the people of the world, but also damage the reputation of the king."

    Zhuge Liang made some impassioned words.  He directly praised Liu Bei, the uncle of the Han emperor, as the orthodox emperor of the Han Dynasty.

    The implication of this statement is that Liu Bei was the orthodox leader of the Han Dynasty. Apart from Liu Xie of Chang'an, only Liu Bei became the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

    With such generous words, Zhuge Liang was unable to express his private thoughts.

    Xuzhou and even the Central Plains are the foundation of Zhuge Liang and other scholars from the north. In his heart, Zhuge Liang has always hoped that one day he can help Liu Bei regain Xuzhou. In this way, Zhuge Liang will have more say under Liu Bei.

    "If Liu Bei follows Zhao Yun's plan and abandons the cities in Henan now, he will be completely trapped in the situation of defending himself by the river. It will be extremely difficult for him to break through the Yellow River and go south in the future.

    If this is the case, the hope of regaining Xuzhou will be extremely slim.

    Therefore, whether out of high-sounding righteousness or personal interests, Zhuge Liang had to stand up and dissuade him.

    What is the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, what is the popular feeling of the world, Zhuge Liang slapped a few big hats on his head, Liu Bei suddenly became emotional, and he felt that his image suddenly became taller.

    Zhuge Liang knows how to manipulate people's hearts and understand Liu Bei's thoughts thoroughly.

    Liu Bei clasped his hands behind his back and walked in the hall, brows deep in thought.

    After a long while, Liu Bei nodded and said: "What the military advisor said is absolutely true, but what Zilong said is really superficial. The Central Plains must never be abandoned."

    Zhao Yun felt a chill in his heart when he heard this superficial comment, and his eyebrows were slightly condensed.

    Although there was dissatisfaction in his heart, Zhao Yun held it back and said with cupped hands: "Indeed, if you don't abandon the Central Plains, how can you defend yourself?"

    Zhuge Liang, however, shook his feather fan and said calmly: "Since it is said that water will come and soil will flood us, how can we, the righteous people of Yan, be afraid of Yan Liang's cruel soldiers? If Yan Liang's thieves dare to attack the cities on the south bank, our army and people of Yan should work together."  , fight to the death.¡±

    Although these words are generous,?Exciting, but a bit empty, with no actual strategy to defend against the enemy.

    Zhuge Liang had no choice but to come up with any good ideas at this time, so he could only use beautiful slogans to cheer up Liu Bei's spirit.

    Sure enough, Liu Bei's blood began to boil, and he said resolutely: "I have made up my mind. I will defend the south bank to the death. I will never surrender the people of the Central Plains to Yan Liang's tiger's mouth!"

    Under the roar, the ministers were so angry that even Zhuge Liang waved his hands and listened to the feather fan, echoing Liu Bei's heroic words.

    However, Zhao Yun could only sigh secretly, silently.

    ¡­¡­

    Hulao Pass.

    The civilian men recruited from Luoyang have already carried earth and stones to rebuild Hulao Pass on the ruins, which was severely damaged by the fire.

    Not long after the capture of Hulao, Yan Liang stayed in Guancheng for a few days and then returned to Luoyang.

    On that day, Yan Liang convened the civil and military officials in Luoyang Palace and announced a major decision to them.

    From now on, Yan Liang will officially move the capital of the Chu Kingdom from Yingtian in Jiangdong to Luoyang City.

    As soon as this sudden decision was announced, the whole hall was shocked. No one among the civil and military officials expected that Yan Liang would make such a major decision.

    "Your Majesty, although Luoyang is the old capital of the Han Dynasty, it is currently located in the northern border of Chu. The two enemies Cao and Liu are watching from three sides. With Luoyang as the capital, it seems a little unstable." Pang Tong immediately expressed concern.

    All civil and military officials agreed, thinking that moving the capital to Luoyang would be a bit risky.

    Since ancient times, the capital has always been located in a safe place, but Luoyang is now facing the enemy, especially in the north, across the Yellow River, which is Liu Bei's territory.

    Such a geographical location, just looking at it from a map, gives people a sense of insecurity.

    Yan Liang snorted disdainfully and asked: "So what if Luoyang is surrounded by enemies on three sides? We have hundreds of thousands of soldiers from Chu. Don't you have the confidence to keep Luoyang safe?"

    A rhetorical question forced all the civil and military officials back.

    In the lobby, everyone didn¡¯t know how to persuade him.

    At this time, Yan Liang said loudly: "I know your thoughts, but I moved the capital to Luoyang to tell the people of the world that I am not a peaceful king. Luoyang is located in the middle of the world, and it is the place where troops are used.  The purpose of moving the capital to Luoyang is to make Luoyang the cornerstone for the king to destroy Cao Cao in the west, sweep Liu Bei in the north, and seize the whole world. Do you understand?"

    After these words, the ministers were shocked and suddenly understood Yan Liang's intention.

    Although Yingtian is as safe as a rock, it is thousands of miles away from the Central Plains. When the country's border was along the Huaihe River, Yingtian was the capital, and it was relatively convenient to conquer from all directions.

    But the current national situation is that the border of Dachu has been pushed to the line of the Yellow River. If Yingtian is the capital again, Yan Liang will lead his army to the north every time he leads an army. In this way,  Before the war started, the fatigue of marching alone was enough for the soldiers.

    If the capital is moved to Luoyang, Yan Liang can launch attacks on Cao and Liu enemies anytime and anywhere. In this case, it will be more beneficial to his war to unify the world.

    As for the issue of safety, now that Cao Liu is weak and unable to protect himself, how can he dare to invade Luoyang?

    After several ideological struggles, the thinking of the ministers was gradually changed by Yan Liang, and began to change from opposition to support.

    Pang Tong pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said: "The king's ambition is for the world. It is true that setting the capital in Yingtian is not as good as setting the capital in Luoyang and using troops from all directions. I agree with the king's decision."

    As the chief adviser, Pang Tong seconded Yan Liang's decision to move the capital, and the other ministers had no objections.

    At that moment, all the ministers in the hall changed their minds one after another and supported Yan Liang's decision.

    The ministers had no objections, and Yan Liang then issued the royal order to officially move the capital to Luoyang.

    Wang Lingzhi arrived at Yingtian. From Princess Huang Yueying down, Yan Liang's two sons, several concubines, and all the beauties from Tongquetai all set off from Yingtian and headed for Luoyang.

    At the same time, the families of hundreds of officials in Yingtian also set off one after another to settle in Luoyang.

    Although Dong Zhuo burned down Luoyang in one fell swoop, after more than ten years of reconstruction by Cao Cao and the Yuan family, Luoyang City was no longer as majestic and prosperous as before the war, but it had at least restored 30% of its original size.

    Such a Luoyang city is enough to accommodate hundreds of relocated officials, and the old imperial city is comparable to the King of Chu's city in Yingtian.

    Of course, Yan Liang could not only be satisfied with such a "simple" environment. In his blueprint, Luoyang Imperial City would sooner or later return to the splendor of the Han Dynasty, and only then could he satisfy his needs for enjoyment.

      But now we have just moved the capital. The most important thing is to wipe out Cao Liu and carry out large-scale construction projects. It doesn't matter if we delay it for a while.

    Yan Liang may not build a lot of buildings and build palaces, but this does not mean that he has lowered his quality of enjoyment.

    It is reasonable for concubines such as Huang Yueying and Sun Shangxiang to live in the Luoyang Palace, but the beauties at Tongquetai are not qualified to live in the palace.

    Although those beauties from all over the world are extremely beautiful, their identities are either Nanyi or family members of the enemy. Their identities determine that Yan Liang cannot give them formal status.

    In Yan Liang¡¯s view, these women are just tools for her enjoyment.

    Since these women cannot officially move into the palace, Yan Liang naturally needs to build another courtyard for them so that he can go and enjoy it at his convenience at any time.

    Therefore, in order to accommodate these beauties, Yan Liang immediately ordered the recruitment of tens of thousands of civilians to build a "Golden Bird Terrace" near the Royal City of Luoyang to replace the "Bronze Bird Terrace" in Yingtian.  Fengyue Holy Land.  (To be continued)
