The decision to move the capital to Yecheng was made in less than half an hour for civil and military officials to make the final decision. But it was not that easy to implement. After all, the officials are all big and wealthy, so it is not easy to move once. Moreover, there are farms outside the city and shops in the city. It is not possible to deal with these things overnight.

It is not easy for officials to relocate, but it is also not easy for ordinary people. It is a thousand miles away from Chang'an to Yecheng. Except for the wealthy families with horses and carriages or ox carriages, the remaining people rely only on their own legs. This journey takes at least one month. Even with the assistance of the soldiers and horses in Jizhou, many elderly, weak, women and children will not be able to maintain their destination.

The last time he moved the capital from Luoyang to Chang'an was Dong Zhuo's troops and temptation. Whoever did not leave would immediately kill all the whole family. In addition, Dong Zhuo's army set fire everywhere, causing the entire Luoyang city to soar into the sky. Stayed, either killed or burned, and followed Dong Zhuo's army to Chang'an, and there was still some vitality. It was precisely for this reason that hundreds of thousands of officials and civilians followed Dong Zhuo away from Luoyang and came to Chang'an. However, even so, at least 30% of the people died on the way.

Now the journey from Chang'an to Yecheng is even longer, so the civil and military officials of the court made the decision to move the capital and announced the list, there were very few people in the city responding.

Faced with this situation, even Guo Jia was helpless. He looked at Han Zhan and asked, "Lord, Jizhou's troops are not as good as Dong Zhuo's army, and he cannot force the people to move to Yecheng with swords and guns. It seems that we have to think of other ways!"

After Guo Jia finished speaking, Xun You next to him immediately asked, "Fengxiao, do you have any good ideas?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "No. Jia is helpless."

Han Zhan's eyes swept across everyone one by one, and finally stopped on Xu Shu. He asked, "Yuan Zhi, what do you want to say?"

"Lord!" Xu Shu walked out of the queue, came to Han Zhan, bowed deeply to him and said, "I have a way to persuade the people to leave Chang'an and go to Yecheng."

When Han Zhan heard that Xu Shu had a good idea, he suddenly lit up and he hurriedly urged: "Yuanzhi, what are you doing? Tell me quickly."

"The lord proposed to divide Yongyetian for the Jizhou army, and this move was deeply rooted in the military." Han Zhan thought that Xu Shu was the specific implementer of the distribution of land. He suddenly mentioned this matter today, which was definitely related to the strategy he wanted to say, so he signaled him to continue: "The people in the capital do not want to migrate, because they are reluctant to leave their own acre of land and the road is far away. If we help them solve this matter, will all the problems be solved soon?"

"Tell me more specifically."

"We set up farms outside the counties and counties in Jizhou to accommodate the people who come from Chang'an. Each family is given a certain amount of land, which is exempted from tax for three years. The subordinates think that if the people hear this news, they will definitely go there enthusiastically."

"Yuan Zhi." As soon as Xu Shu finished speaking, Xun You expressed his question: "Even if we have allocated land for the people, where do the seeds and oxes they need come from? Also, even if there are these things, they will not be able to harvest at least a few months. So what do they eat and drink in the past few months?"

Xu Shu looked at Xun You after he finished speaking, smiled at him, and then said, "Xu has considered what Gongda is worried about long ago. The government can lend grain to these farmers. After the autumn harvest, they will return the harvested grain to the government in the same amount."

"Yuan Zhi's plan is very wonderful." Guo Jia couldn't help but nod and praised: "In this way, the lord not only saved countless people, but also allowed them to praise you. This plan is really wonderful."

"The resettlement of the people can be done according to what Yuan Zhi said." Xun You continued: "But from here it is a thousand miles away from Yecheng. Except for a few wealthy people in their families who can use horse and ox carts to transport, the remaining majority of the people can only walk slowly to Yecheng with their own legs. Even if they can be gradually resettled along the way, I am still worried that many people will die on the road."

"Go to do your best to be loyal to heaven," Han Zhan interrupted when he heard this, "The food of the people along the way can be given by the military; the elderly, weak, sick and disabled can also be transported by carriages; and doctors will be sent to treat the weak. In this way, I think that most of the people can enter Jizhou safely." Seeing that Han Zhan had already set the tone, the civil and military officials were not good to object, so he could only conduct some details and some research.

Seeing that posting the list article was not effective, Han Zhan ordered Dian Wei, Xiahou Lan and others to lead a group of loudly voiced soldiers along the street to loudly preach the benefits of going to Jizhou.

After a day of yelling, their publicity finally had a little effect. The people who were willing to go to Yecheng all went to the registration points located in the east of the city to register. Looking at the registration team that could not be seen before each registration point, Han Zhan felt much more at ease. He thought to himself: "In this chaotic world, it is unrealistic to save everyone. I can only do my best to save as much as I can."

Han Zhan, wearing casual clothes, took Chen Dao and two guards to a registration point to check. He heard a small official sitting behind a small table and asked an old man standing in front of him: "What's your name? How many people are there in the family? Do you have relatives in the Jizhou area? If there are no relatives, would you be willing to go directly to Yecheng or accept resettlement along the way?"

The old man's ears might be a little bad. He turned his ears forward with his face sideways so that he could hear what the little official said clearly. The little official had a very good attitude, and was afraid that the old person would not be able to hear clearly, so he slowed down and repeated the words just now. Seeing that the little official was not only not arrogant, but instead treated an elderly man so politely, he couldn't help but smile and nodded, and walked towards another registration point.

After Han Zhan returned to the mansion, he called Xu Shu over and asked, "Yuan Zhi, did you give the questions from those minor officials?"

"When I go back to the lord, that's right, it was what my subordinates gave them." Xu Shu heard Han Zhan's question and quickly replied respectfully: "By the subordinates' estimate, even if many people refuse to leave Chang'an, there will be more than 200,000 people who want to enter Jizhou. So many people pouring into Jizhou together will inevitably cause unnecessary chaos, so we must prepare for the future. Therefore, when I ask the minor officials to first find out whether the registered people have relatives in Jizhou, so that they can join relatives and friends after entering Jizhou to relieve our pressure."

"That's true." Han Zhan thought to himself who said that ancient people were stupider than modern people, and people like Xu Shu were much better than modern people. "If the people could go to Jizhou to visit relatives and friends, it would be a good way out."

"Lord," Xu Shu and Han Zhan finished speaking, and continued: "There are about 12,000 people who have registered today. It is recommended that it is better to send a group of soldiers to escort them away first. In this way, by the time the second group of people came out, the first group of people had almost arrived at the resettlement site."

Han Zhan never thought of completing the migration of hundreds of thousands of people in one go. He just thought about reaching a certain number and sent away a group of people. Send the people in Chang'an City in batches, and the pressure on his own army could be greatly reduced. Therefore, he expressed his support for Xu Shu's proposal. He thought about it and said to Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, since you said that, then the first batch of migrant people will be sent out at noon tomorrow. Two thousand soldiers and horses will be escorted, led by Shi Tao and Wei Xu."

When Xu Shu heard the name Wei Xu, he was stunned at first, and then remembered that this person was a general under Zhang Liao, so he asked Han Zhan hesitantly: "Lord, is it too risky to let him perform such a major task shortly after Wei Xu surrendered to our army?"

"Don't doubt the person, you don't need to doubt it," Han Zhan said to Xu Shu with a smile: "I believe that Wei Xu will definitely complete this escort mission."

At noon the next day, more than 13,000 people who had enough food and drink left Chang'an under the escort of two thousand Jizhou soldiers and horses, and slowly headed east along the official road. Han Zhan, Guo Jia, Xu Shu and others stood on the city gate tower, looking at the troops gradually disappearing from their sight, and said with emotion: "I hope everyone can arrive in Jizhou safely. If there are too many casualties and injuries along the way, it is my punishment."

"Please rest assured, lord." Seeing Han Zhan's worried look, Guo Jia hurriedly comforted him and said, "Shi Tao and Wei Xu carried enough food and medicine, and there were hundreds of carriages in the team, which was enough to send these people to Jizhou smoothly."

Maybe it was because the people who registered were escorted by the uninjured Jizhou army and successfully left Chang'an. Many people who originally thought they could not leave their hometowns also had the idea of ​​migrating to Jizhou. There were a lot of people queuing up at the registration points in the east of the city. The original clerks were obviously not enough, so they had to temporarily draw a group of people to assist them in registering the people.

After descending from the city tower, Guo Jia returned to the military camp outside the city, while Xu Shu accompanied Han Zhan to inspect the registration points that were crowded. Chen Dao was worried that Han Zhan would be in danger and planned to bring more people to guard him, but Han Zhan raised his hand to stop him: "Don't worry, Uncle Zhi, there is no Li Jue in the city, Guo Si's remnants, so this marquis will not be in any danger."

Seeing that Han Zhan was so confident, Chen Dao planned to continue persuading him: "But..."

But as soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by Xu Shu: "Don't worry, Uncle. Now the people in the city are not too late to support their lords, so no one wants to harm them. Even if there are such illegal people, the people can protect their lords's integrity."

"When I go back to the lord, that's right, it was what my subordinates gave them." Xu Shu heard Han Zhan's question and quickly replied respectfully: "By the subordinates' estimate, even if many people refuse to leave Chang'an, there will be more than 200,000 people who want to enter Jizhou. So many people pouring into Jizhou together will inevitably cause unnecessary chaos, so we must prepare for the future.
