After hearing Han Zhan's order, Chen Dao didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately led a few soldiers, rushed towards the crowd who were fighting, and shouted at the same time: "Only punish the leader and the evil, don't ask the coercion, and those who abandon weapons will be spared." die!"

First, Chen Dao shouted alone, and soon the soldiers he led also shouted, and finally all the Jizhou soldiers outside the palace shouted loudly.Li Jue's army, who was fighting desperately, lost the courage to continue fighting when they heard the Jizhou army shouting.If someone takes the lead, there will naturally be followers. First, one or two soldiers stopped resisting and threw away their weapons, then a dozen or twenty soldiers, and finally hundreds of soldiers threw away their weapons. Hear the sound of weapons clanging to the ground.

After half a stick of incense, except for a few soldiers loyal to Li Jue who retreated into the imperial city, the remaining soldiers either died in battle or surrendered to Han Zhan and the others by throwing away their weapons.

Li Xian was stabbed several times, and with the support of two soldiers, he stumbled to the city wall, knelt down in front of Li Jue and said, "Uncle, Jizhou's troops are strong, and our army can't resist. Let's withdraw as soon as possible."

"Withdraw, where are we going?" Looking at the dark Jizhou army below the city, Li Jue smiled wryly and said, "The imperial city has been called by Jizhou soldiers and horses, and we cannot escape."

"Uncle, let's go." After Li Xian glanced at the city, he urged Li Jue, "If you don't go, you really can't go." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to a soldier who was supporting him, "You It's about the same size as my uncle, quickly take off the clothes on your body and change with my uncle."

The soldier knew that once he put on Li Jue's armor, he probably would not be far from death.But when he saw Li Xian holding the bleeding sword in his hand, he knew in his heart that if he didn't do what Li Xian said, he would die immediately, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take off the armor on his body. Li Jue exchanged.

The gate of the palace was quickly knocked open by the Jizhou army from the outside, and the soldiers rushed into the palace with shouts.Knowing that Li Jue was in the imperial city at this moment, Han Zhan quickly issued a second order: "Whoever captures Li Jue alive will be rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold, and he will be made a Marquis! Whoever takes Li Jue's head will be rewarded with a hundred gold pieces, and he will be promoted to three levels in a row! "

Soon, Han Zhan's order was yelled in the mouths of Jizhou soldiers: "Whoever captures Li Jue alive will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and he will be named a lieutenant! Whoever takes Li Jue's head will be rewarded with a hundred gold, and he will be promoted to three ranks in a row!"

Li Jue's army in the imperial city was originally in Cao Ying and his heart was in Han. Hearing the shouts of Jizhou soldiers and horses, he couldn't help but be moved.Facing the tide of Jizhou soldiers and horses, he quickly raised his hands above his head and shouted: "No more fights, no more fights, we surrender!"

Seeing that the palace gate was breached without even being able to support it for a moment, Li Xian hurriedly took the rest of the people, guarding the real and fake Li Jue, and retreated towards the palace.

"There's Li Jue!" Zhang Liao, who had just defected to Han Zhan and hadn't done anything yet, saw Li Xian retreating towards the deep palace with a man in Li Jue's armor, and quickly pointed forward with the weapon in his hand. Shouted: "Kill!"

Zhang Liao rode his horse forward, Wei Xu, Song Xian, Cheng Yi, and Hou Cheng feared that he might make a mistake, they all followed closely behind him, killed Li Jue's army along the way, and headed towards the fleeing Li Jue chase after.

After Huang Zhong rushed into the palace with his soldiers and horses, he saw Li Jue fleeing in the distance, and immediately opened his bow and set up an arrow to shoot at him.The off-string arrow flew into the crowd like lightning and accurately hit the soldier in Li Jue's armor.The man screamed and fell directly to the ground.

The Jizhou army who was rushing forward couldn't help cheering when they saw Li Jue being shot down by an arrow.Zhang Liao, who rushed to the front, couldn't help sighing when he saw Li Jue being shot down, and then slowed down his pace.

Seeing that the fake Li Jue was shot down by an arrow, Li Xian struggled in a panic and dragged Li Jue to escape to the deep palace.Because they were familiar with the terrain in the palace, they quickly got rid of the Jizhou soldiers who were chasing them.

Huang Zhong came to the corpse of "Li Jue", got off his horse, and was about to cut off the opponent's head, when Song Xian who was beside him suddenly shouted: "This is not Li Jue!"

"What, isn't this Li Jue?" Hearing what Song Xian said, Huang Zhong couldn't help being taken aback. He quickly turned over the corpse to check, even though he didn't know Li Jue, he still recognized that it was a counterfeit.As far as he knew, Li Jue had a beard all over his face, while the person lying on the ground was pale and beardless, and looked to be in his early twenties. Huang Zhong knew that he had been caught by Li Jue's trick to get rid of his shell, so he was furious. He kicked the corpse, and then told the surrounding soldiers: "Search carefully in the palace, don't leave Li Jue!"

Chapter 283 Han Zhan's Plan

Regardless of whether Li Jue died or fled, the soldiers and horses in the city soon fell into a leaderless situation.Han Zhan ordered his soldiers and horses to shout in the city: "Only kill the chief villain, don't ask the threats, and don't kill those who abandon weapons!"

Most of the soldiers and horses in the city are not Li Jue's direct descendants, but because the general who led the army was replaced by Li Jue's confidants, they had to temporarily obey Li Jue's dispatch.At this moment, the "news" of Li Jue's "death" had spread throughout the city, and when they heard the shouts of Jizhou soldiers, everyone had no intention of fighting again.Seeing Jizhou soldiers rushing over, they immediately abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

After dark, the entire city of Chang'an was under the control of the Jizhou army.Taiwei Yang Biao and Da Si Nong Zhu Jun brought all the military officials in the court to the palace to meet Han Zhan.

Seeing the corpses scattered all over the road, many officials were so frightened that their legs trembled and they needed help from others to barely stand.Seeing that these people were scared out of their wits, Han Zhan knew that even if he managed to gather them together, there would be nothing to discuss.Therefore, he greeted Yang Biao and Zhu Jun and said: "My lords, our army has just pacified the capital today, and there are still many remnants of Li Jue's party that have not been eliminated. Why don't you please go back to your residence first, and wait until the situation stabilizes tomorrow. Is it too late to discuss the matter?"

Zhu Jun didn't understand the purpose of Han Zhan's words, so he asked curiously: "Tinghou, the old man doesn't understand what you mean. Since Wu has already gathered here, why should we discuss matters here? Why do we have to wait until tomorrow? "

Han Zhan pointed at the officials who were frightened out of their wits, and said, "Look, Da Si Nong, these adults are frightened by the corpses everywhere, presumably even if they stay, they will be out of their minds and difficult to discuss. In this case, it is better to let them first Go back and rest for one night, and it will not be too late to discuss matters tomorrow."

After Zhu Jun listened to Han Zhan's words, he turned his head and asked Yang Biao who was standing beside him, "Taiwei Yang, what do you want?"

In fact, when Yang Biao saw the scene of corpses strewn all over the field and smelled the lingering bloody smell in the air, he also felt sick for a while, but he was worried that he would offend Han Zhan, so he could only bite the bullet and call all the officials here .Hearing that Han Zhan offered to let all the officials go home to rest and discuss matters tomorrow, it was naturally his wish.However, he still pretended to think for a moment before nodding his head and said, "Si Nong, since Marquis Ting said so, let's do as he wants. We will come here tomorrow after the remaining Li Jue party in the city has been wiped out." It's not too late to come to discuss the matter."

After finishing speaking, Yang Biao walked up to the military officials, waved at them, and said loudly: "Everyone, there is nothing to do here, so don't delay Jizhou Mu's business, everyone, let's leave! "

When many officials heard Yang Biao say this, they couldn't help muttering in their hearts: "If you hadn't sent someone to force us here, who would come to this ghostly place full of corpses at this time?" There were complaints, but when they heard that Yang Biao asked everyone to go home first, just as they wished, they immediately dispersed.

After Yang Biao left with the military officials, only Zhu Jun was left with Han Zhan.He remembered Han Zhan once said that he was afraid of another massacre if he wanted to wipe out the remnants of Li Jue's party, so he quickly reminded him politely: "Han Tinghou, although many ministers in the court are clinging to Li Jue and Guo Si, but you can't do it." There is no way around it. The two thieves Li and Guo have always held great power, and if the military officials do not attach themselves, they may bring disaster on themselves."

Han Zhan is a smart man. When he heard Zhu Jun say this to himself, he understood what the other party was worried about, so he smiled and said to him: "Please don't worry, Da Sinong. Of course, this Marquis will not let a bad person go, but I will not let you go." It will kill a good person by mistake. No matter whether the military officials in the court have attached themselves to Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, or Guo Si in the past, as long as they are loyal to the court, they can continue to be officials in the court."

When Han Zhan said this, he saw the puzzled expression on Zhu Jun's face, and quickly continued: "Da Sinong, this Marquis is definitely not a person who kills indiscriminately. He will not take everyone close to Dong Zhuo like Wang Situ when he took power. Kill all the people. Those ministers who are inextricably linked with Li Jue and Guo Si, as long as they don't commit many evils, I will not embarrass them."

After getting Han Zhan's promise, Zhu Jun's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.After pausing for a moment, he thought of Emperor Han Xian who was far away in Jizhou, so he tentatively asked: "Tinghou, the old man would like to ask, once the capital is pacified, when do you plan to welcome Shengjia back?"

"Da Sinong," Han Zhan looked at Zhu Jun in surprise and asked, "You mean to welcome Shengjia back to Chang'an and continue to make the capital here?"

"That's right, this old man has exactly that intention." Regarding Han Zhan's statement, Zhu Jun nodded and said affirmatively, "Whether it's this old man, even Taiwei Yang thinks the same way."

"No, Da Si Nong, I will not welcome Sheng Jia back to Chang'an." Han Zhan waited for Zhu Jun to finish speaking, and said firmly: "Even if you want to establish the capital, you should choose Yecheng instead of being dilapidated and incomplete." Chang'an."

"Tinghou," hearing Han Zhan's words, Zhu Jun's face showed a trace of anger: "Tell me, why can't you welcome Shengjia back to Chang'an?"

Han Zhan did not answer this question immediately, but first asked Zhu Jun to sit down, and then asked, "Da Si Nong, let me ask you, how much is a hu of grain and rice in Chang'an City, and how much is soybean wheat? Have the common people ever had no worries about food and clothing?"

A few questions from Han Zhan stopped Zhu Jun immediately.If it is a major event in the court, Zhu Jun can still say that he is ugly and Yinmao, but when asked about people's livelihood, he is speechless.

Seeing that Zhu Jun couldn't answer, Han Zhan said to him: "As far as I know, today's grain is worth 50 yuan a dendrobium, and soybeans and wheat are 20 yuan. People cannibalism has occurred in many places in the city. Your Majesty Before being rescued by the Marquis, Yang Taiwei had arranged for Yang Taiwei to use rice beans from Taicang to help the victims, and many people survived.

If we want to stay in Chang'an, we must transfer food and grass from other places to supplement the needs of the capital.Do you think it is appropriate for us to transport grain and grass from Jizhou for a long time? "

"What Tinghou said is very true." Zhu Jun is not a pedantic person. Hearing that Han Zhan made it clear why he could not welcome Han Xiandi to return to Chang'an, he didn't insist on his own opinion anymore, but asked humbly: "But I don't know Tinghou. How did you plan?"

"As early as a few months ago, I ordered the superintendent Jushou to carry out large-scale construction projects in Yecheng. Presumably, the new palace will be completed in another month, and the new capital can be established in Yecheng." Han Zhan felt that if he wanted to persuade the court Wu, who is in the middle, must first convince Zhu Jun in front of him: "This Marquis intends to move all the military officials in the capital to Yecheng. As for the common people, those who are willing to follow Ben Hou will provide them with food every day; The Marquis will not force those who leave their hometown, and will leave them with the necessary food so that they can continue to live here."

Seeing Han Zhan patiently explaining to himself the reasons for abandoning Chang'an, and even proposing a plan to relocate the residents of Chang'an, Zhu Jun immediately understood that this Chang'an had to be abandoned.After a brief moment of disappointment, he said to Han Zhan: "Tinghou, the old man understands. Don't worry, if you raise this matter in the court tomorrow, the old man will definitely persuade other ministers to support you and set the new capital in Yecheng. And remove all the officials and people in the city."

Chapter 284 Moving the Capital

At the court meeting the next day, Han Zhan proposed to move the military officials and the people in the city to Yecheng.He originally thought that his plan would be opposed by many ministers, but after he finished speaking, the court was actually silent.This unexpected situation made him a little at a loss.

Yang Biao stepped out of the queue, stood in the middle and said to the soldiers: "Everyone, everyone has heard Jizhou Mu's proposal. I don't know what you think about it. You might as well talk about it."

After Yang Biao's words came out, the court was still completely silent.After all, in recent years, Dong Zhuo and Li Jue have taken turns to control the court, and they often kill people if they disagree with each other. All the military officials are scared out of their wits.Now that the entire capital is controlled by Jizhou Mu's soldiers and horses, his character has not yet been figured out. If he expresses his opinion rashly, making the other party unhappy, and ordering someone to drag him out and behead him, what should he do?

"My lords," Han Zhan felt strange seeing that everyone remained silent. He walked to Yang Biao's side and said to all the warriors, "I don't know if you have different opinions, but it's okay to say."

Seeing Han Zhan standing next to Yang Biao, all the soldiers dared not speak even more. Some officials who had good friends with Yang Biao were still worried about Yang Biao's personal safety. They were afraid that Han Zhan would get angry and order someone to drag Yang Biao out. cut.Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhu Jun walked out of the queue and said to everyone, "Everyone, I don't know if you have any different opinions on Jizhou Mu's proposal, but it's okay to say it!"

Hearing that Zhu Jun also stood up to support Han Zhan, an elderly minister finally came out of the queue, gave a deep salute to Han Zhan and asked, "Jizhou Mu, I want to ask, do you plan to only send the court to the court?" Will the military capital in China be moved to Yecheng, or should the people in Chang'an City be moved to Yecheng together?"

Except for Yang Biao and Zhu Jun, Han Zhan didn't know anyone in the court.Seeing that someone finally stood up, he quickly turned to Yang Biao for help, hoping that he could give him an explanation.

When Yang Biao saw Han Zhan's eyes, he immediately understood. He leaned close to Han Zhan's ear and whispered, "This person is Ma Rizhan Ma Wengshu, who is now the grand tutor."

After finding out the identities of the officials in front of him, Han Zhan saluted Ma Rizun and said, "Teacher, this Marquis naturally wants to move all the officials in the court to Yecheng together with the people in the city!"

"Jizhou Mu," Seeing Han Zhan's respect for Ma Rixun, the Wu who stood on both sides felt more at ease, and another official stood up and asked on behalf of the crowd: "Jizhou Mu, I want to ask, is there anyone in the city?" There are more than [-] people, if they are moved to Yecheng thousands of miles away, will they be provided with enough food along the way?"

This time, without waiting for Han Zhan to wink at him, Yang Biao said first, "This is a servant of the court. His surname is Zhao, his name is Qi, and his style name is Binqing."

"It turned out to be Zhao Taipu." Although this person is unknown in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Han Zhan knew that this person was quite well-known in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He was a famous Confucian scholar and painter. , and later changed to the current name due to asylum.He hurriedly bowed to him and said politely: "Although the Marquis wants to move all the people in the city, it may be impossible for them to resettle them all in Yecheng."

Hearing what Han Zhan said, not to mention all the military officials in the court, even Yang Biao, Zhu Jun and others changed their expressions.After a long time, Yang Biao asked tentatively, "Jizhou Mu, where do you plan to place these people?"

As for how to resettle the people in Chang'an after they were moved to Jizhou, Han Zhan discussed with Guo Jia, Xun You, Xu Shu and others overnight, and felt that all resettling in Yecheng would increase the burden on the city.After some discussions, everyone felt that starting from entering the border of Jizhou, resettlement along the way would not only reduce the burden of supplies, but when they arrived in Yecheng, there might only be [-] to [-] people left, and they would be easy to resettle. too much.

Seeing that all the warriors were looking at him expectantly at this moment, Han Zhan decided to tell them the result of the discussion between himself and his subordinates, so that everyone could feel at ease.Thinking of this, Han Zhan said: "After a series of wars in Jizhou, the population of many cities has decreased. This time, the people in Beijing will be relocated. Benhou intends to resettle them along the way from the moment they enter the border of Jizhou. Not only can it reduce the logistical pressure of the army, It can also make the people settle down as soon as possible. I wonder if you adults have any objections?"
