In Luoyang, Xun you and Zhang Liao formally took office, responsible for the collection and storage of pumpkin. Because pumpkins are all over Luoyang, with the maturity of pumpkins, the number of pumpkins collected every day is very large, so they are very busy.
Every day, there is no time to rest.
In the substantial work, the two saw the horror of pumpkin production. Each pumpkin weighs dozens of Jin, tens of them are hundreds of Jin, hundreds of them are thousands of Jin.
The yield of pumpkin per mu shocked Xun you and Zhang Liao.
The more they came into contact, the more shocked they were.
In the process of being busy gradually, the conflict between Xunyou and zhangliao to the state of Chu gradually dissipated. This result is exactly what Liu Xiu wants to achieve.
Liu Xiu sent Zhang Liao and Xun you back to Luoyang for two purposes.
First, to avoid the embarrassment of Cao Cao.
Second, through the changes of Luoyang and the miracles of Luoyang, we can win over Xun you and Zhang Liao.
The changes in Chu state are undergoing great changes for thousands of years. All the miracles and changes were enough to make Xun you and Zhang Liao change slowly.
When Xun you and Zhang Liao gradually integrated into the state of Chu, Yu Jin, another Wei general who surrendered to the state of Chu, arrived at the front line and was sent to Liu Xiu's barracks.
The big account of the Chinese army.
Dressed in a black robe, Liu Xiushen sat directly above.
Down there, standing, was sent to Yujin.
After a long journey, Yu Jin's clothes were neat, but his face was tired. In particular, he was defeated by Huang Zhong, surrendered in the selection bar, and became a demoted General of Chu. There was great pressure in his heart.
In a short period of time, Yu Jin's temples were white, and he was a lot older. He was not as energetic as he used to be, and he was even more dusky and decadent.
Seeing Liu Xiu, Yu Jin saluted respectfully and said, "the sinner Yu Jin has met the emperor of Chu."
Liu Xiumian with a smile, said: "General Yu, sit down!"
In history, Yu Jin was one of the five excellent generals under Cao Cao. However, compared with Zhang Liao, Zhang Yan, Li Dian and others, Yu Jin's treatment was far different, and his status was not high.
In fact, compared with Zhang Liao, Zhang Ya and others, Yu Jin defected to Cao Cao very early and was an old man under Cao Cao's command. When Cao Cao was in Dongjun, Yu Jin surrendered to Cao Cao and became Cao Cao's army Sima.
In all previous wars, Yu Jin showed extraordinary ability to lead the army and made continuous contributions. He was respected by Cao Cao and became one of the core generals under Cao Cao's command.
However, Guan Yu led the army to flood the seven armies and defeated Cao Jun. After the first World War, pound fought to death, and Yu Jin chose to surrender.
Surrender became the turning point of Yu ban.
After hearing about the war in Jingzhou, Cao Cao praised pound for his loyalty and bravery. However, he said that Yu Jin had followed Cao Cao for more than 30 years and was inferior to pound in times of crisis. He thought that Yu Jin's virtue was not enough.
In this era, loyalty is one of the yardsticks to measure a general.
Loyal people will be respected.
For example, after Liu Bei's defeat, Guan Yu protected Liu Bei's family and did not surrender to Cao Cao, but he got Cao Cao's praise and made Cao Cao love and hate him. In the end, Guan Yu left. Instead of pursuing him, Cao Cao regretted that Guan Yu could not be used by him.
But Yu Jin's surrender is different.
Later, Sun Quan defeated you, captured Jingzhou, and released Yu, who was imprisoned in Jingzhou. After Sun Quan was rescued from ban, Yu ban and Sun Quan rode side by side. Yu Jin was reprimanded by Yu fan, a civil servant of Sun Quan, for he was a prisoner who surrendered and was not qualified to be with Sun Quan.
It can be seen from this that a surrendering general, no matter how capable he is, is not valued or even despised.
Later, in order to please Cao Pi, Sun Quan released Yu ban in Jiangdong. After returning to the state of Wei, Yu Jin was ashamed to see others, and he was not reused all his life.
Now, Yu Jin surrendered to Liu Xiu. If Liu Xiu does not accept Yu Jin's surrender, Yu Jin will have no place to go, because his reputation will be completely gone at the moment of surrender.
Those who surrender will be left out when they return to the state of Wei.
However, it is different to prefer death to death.
For example, Xunyou and zhangliao defeated Wujun and were captured by Lu Xun and then sent to Liu Xiu. But they would rather die than surrender, and finally they were replaced by Cao Cao, who still got Cao Cao's attention.
Liu xiuxinnian turned around and had already made arrangements for the ban. He said, "General Yu, are you willing to serve me?"
"Yes!"
Yu Jin didn't want to answer directly.
Under the blade of Huang Zhong, he had already surrendered to Liu Xiu. Now Liu Xiu solicits him and takes the initiative to ask. Naturally, he won't refuse Liu Xiu.
"Good!"
Liu Xiu laughed.
Liu Xiu stared at Yu Jin and said in a deep voice, "General Yu is willing to serve me. Next, he will follow me to see Cao Cao. I'm looking forward to Cao Cao's look when he sees you submit to me. "
"AhYu Jin heard the speech and exclaimed.
For a moment, Yu Jin was on pins and needles. Yu Jin's face showed a look of shame. As a subordinate, he surrendered to Liu Xiu and betrayed Cao Cao.
What's the face of letting him see Cao Cao again?
Yu Jin swallowed his saliva and asked awkwardly, "Your Majesty, can you..."
As soon as he spoke, Liu Xiu interrupted directly and said in a deep voice, "is general Yu pretending to be obedient and unwilling to help me?"
Liu Xiu's eyes towards Yu Jin were more severe.
As kings, they all love loyal and righteous officials.
Cao Cao is like this, and Liu Xiu is no exception. Liu Xiu respected people like Zhang Liao and Xun you who would rather die than surrender, so he gave them preferential treatment and sent them directly to Luoyang.
In this era, loyal ministers are most admirable.
Liu Xiu has neither a good feeling nor a bad feeling for Yu ban.
Liu Xiu will not give up the way that can be used to ban Cao Cao. What Yu Jin thought was no longer under Liu Xiu's consideration. Since Yu Jin had surrendered, he had to be prepared to face Cao Cao.
Yu Jin opened his mouth. When he reached his mouth, he swallowed it back. He hesitated for a long time and said, "I'm afraid I'll delay your Majesty's important affairs."
Liu Xiu laughed and said, "with me, everything is not a problem. In a word, would you like to help me destroy Cao Cao
"Yes!"
The ban should go down.
At this point, Yu ban has no choice.
Yu Jin felt helpless and humiliated. However, Yu Jin didn't want to die, and he didn't have the courage to commit suicide, so he would rather swallow his anger and bear Liu Xiu's drive.
Liu Xiu smile, said: "you are willing to like, along the way, you are also busy, hard. Go down and have a good rest. Tomorrow morning, follow me to the camp of the state of Wei and meet Cao Cao. "
"Here it is
The ban should go down.
Liu Xiu called the soldiers and led Yu Jin to rest.
Immediately, Liu Xiu said, "come on!"
When a soldier came in, Liu Xiu said, "wenpin, please!"
"Here it is
The soldier got the order and went to inform immediately. After a while, wenpin came to Liu Xiu's account.
Wenpin, dressed in armour and with a sword hanging from his waist, is dignified and dignified. When he saw Liu Xiu, he knelt down on one knee and hugged his fist and said, "I've met your majesty, general Wen pin."
"Sit down!"
Liu Xiu waved his hand.
After Wen pin sat down, he looked at Liu Xiu and asked, "Your Majesty has summoned the last general. What can I do for you?"
Liu Xiu didn't beat around the bush. He said straight to the point: "Yu Jin was sent to the barracks. I've convinced him. Tomorrow morning, I'll take him to see Cao Cao and give him a surprise. You reorganize the army and go to war with me tomorrow. Yu Jin's appearance will strike the morale of Wei again. By means of Yu Jin's surrender, he defeated the army of Wei and ordered Cao Cao to withdraw from Dongjun. "
Seizing Dongjun is equivalent to seizing Yanzhou.
At that time, Cao Cao could only retreat to Jizhou.
After Liu Xiu occupied Dongjun, Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren were attacking Yanzhou, Tai Shici was attacking Yuzhou, Huang Zhong was attacking Xuzhou, and several legions would soon meet in Qingzhou.
In the end, Liu Xiu's army went north to Jizhou to defeat Cao Cao.
