Of course, Lu Ning and others wrote a book about Ding Yuan's old man. After reading it, the emperor was furious. The emperor asked Ding Yuan, you spelled the son to murder Big Bear, and Big Bear was the official in the court, and a hero who resisted the Xianbei Tartar cavalry for me. Look, Big Bear destroyed more than 60,000 Xianbei Tartars this year. You openly voluntarily persuaded your son to murder him, and even let the official army dressed as bandits to commit crimes in Hanoi, doing evil everywhere. Do you know that you are guilty?

Ding Yuan was so scared that he kowtowed and kept accusing him of the crime, saying that he had no idea what happened, and he would conduct a strict trial after he came back from arresting the dog.

The emperor also said, "Big Xiong Chan, you are not only a spouse, but also colluded with the Tartars, saying that when you were the governor of Bingzhou, why didn't you resist the Xianbei Tartars? Why didn't you regain the territory occupied by the Tartars such as Yanmen? You are not an adopted son, and your adopted son is not capable. Could it be that your father and son really only bully the people and attack colleagues, etc.

The eunuchs were determined to deal with Ding Yuan and his son, but most ministers in the court waited for nonsense on the grounds that there was insufficient evidence and it was still to be implemented. The two sides quarreled again. In the end, the emperor spoke and asked Ding Yuan to fine him. If there was any matter in the future, he would handle it together and asked him to take good care of his adopted son Lu Bu. If he indulged him again, he would kill his son and punish him. Ding Yuan kowtowed desperately to thank him, and this matter cost Ding Yuan a lot of money.

Finally, the emperor discussed with the ministers in the court that the Lu Ning Army asked to send troops to Hedong, Pingyang, northern areas, and the Qiang and Hu areas to eliminate the Huns and Tartars. This matter was unanimously agreed, but there was a disagreement when controlling these places. Most of the ministers in the court did not agree with the Lu Ning Army's control and only agreed to send troops. The emperor also hoped that the Lu Ning Army would fight the Huns. If he did not agree, he was worried that the Lu Ning Army would not send troops, so the emperor finally became the leader and agreed to the Lu Ning Army's request.

As for the study of the promotion of Lu Ning, all the ministers opposed it, saying that Lu Ning was promoted too quickly and could not be promoted any more, so he would give him some reward. On the one hand, it was to meet Lu Ning's request for food and grass, and on the other hand, it was considered to be a defeat for Lu Ning's army. However, the emperor was reluctant to spend his money. Later, Zhang Rang said that Jizhou would give another 200,000 stone of grain and 2 million large amount of money to Lu Ning's army as rewards and food and grass when sending troops. Han Fu from Jizhou was completely a sucker. The emperor issued an order indiscriminately, and he was afraid that Lu Ning's army would attack him with this excuse, so Han Fu could only suffer a loss.

In addition, because Lu Ning and his friends killed the envoys of Kebineng's troops, Liu Yu from Youzhou submitted memorials every day to report the Lu Ning and others. In addition, the iron cavalry of Kebineng's troops have often come to Youzhou to burn, kill, rob, and now Liu Yu put all the blame on Lu Ning, saying that it was Lu Ning who caused it. He submitted memorials to the emperor every day, all of which were information about the invasion of the Tartars of Kebineng's troops.

The emperor was angry and ordered the Lu Ning army to send troops to resist the Iron Cavalry of the Kebineng tribe on the Youzhou border, and agreed to let the Lu Ning army control Dai County. In the areas north of Shanggu, all the money and food required by the Lu Ning army to fight in Youzhou were supplied by Liu Yu of Youzhou.

After receiving the imperial edict from the emperor, Lu Ning called all the main civil and military officials in his jurisdiction to Jinyang. Anyway, Lu Ning had only a few people under him, and there was no extra one. They were: Sima Lang, Tian Chou, Zhang Ji, Zhang Yang, Mai Zi, Chen Fang, Ma Jun, Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Zhang He, Li You, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Sha'er, Ergou, Heizi, Wen Hui, Cai Yong, only Zhang Chuang came to Qingzhou and had not returned yet, and the others returned to Jinyang.

Lu Ning said: "Everyone knows that the emperor asked us to go to Hedong, Pingyang, and the northern areas to eliminate the Xiongnu Tartars, and also asked us to send troops to Youzhou to help Liu Yu eliminate the Xianbei cavalry of the Kebineng tribe. There are also a large number of Xianbei Tartars north of our Yanmen. Now we call everyone here to express our opinions and whether we have better ideas, whether we have right or wrong, it doesn't matter if we discuss it, we have to see each book."

Sima Lang said: "The entire situation in our jurisdiction has changed a lot. The population has reached more than 1.8 million. The refugees and disaster victims who have come in have been well resettled. Grain production has grown steadily. Various industries and businesses have developed rapidly under the encouragement of our taxation and policies. Grain grass is still sufficient now. We have nearly 2 million stones of grain reserves, which can still be supported by small-scale battles. Please rest assured."

Tian Chou said: "Lord, fighting the Tartars is the consistent purpose of our army. It is just that the emperor asked our army to send troops to Youzhou. In this way, our army's combat locations are scattered and the combat distance is too far, which is not conducive to mutual support and cooperation among the armies. At the same time, our army has become a scattered small group of combat. Once a major event occurs, it will be difficult for our army to return. I suggest that Youzhou not send troops for the time being."

Zhang Yang said: "Lord, this is the court deliberately letting our army disperse its forces to achieve the goal of weakening our army's strength. In fact, the emperor is just driving the wolf and swallowing the tiger. I also agree with Zitai's opinion in Youzhou. As for whether Hedong and Pingyang, it will be beneficial to us to accept it, but I have no objection."

Zhang Ji said: "Lord, Youzhou has few troops to send less troops but not much. If it sends more troops, our defense ability will decline. We should focus on the safety of our own jurisdiction. As for Youzhou and others, we will send Feixiong troops to harass us after the beginning of spring, and then sneak attacks."

After hearing this, Cai Yong said, "Ziyi. They are right. You have enemies around you now, and they may pounce on you. Once they know that your troops are dispersed, they may pounce on you immediately. Now, whether it is the Xianbei Tartars or the Huns Tartars, they are very hostile to you now and want to wait for the opportunity to destroy you, so you should be careful."

Zhang Liao said: "But the emperor was so generous this time, and he handed over the northern part of the Han Dynasty to the elder brother to control it. If we don't make something, wouldn't it mean that we don't have the ability to control more places? I think this is an opportunity and risks."

Zhang He said: "Yes, my third brother is right. For the north, we have been fighting anyway. Now with the emperor's imperial edict, we will take back the north. As long as we solve the Hedong, Pingyang, Qianghu, and northern areas, Yunzhong, Shuofang and other places are ours. As for the problem of guarding these places, it is not a big deal. Our army has very strong mobility. We can send more scouts. Once there is a situation, we can assemble heavy troops in a short time."

Zhao Yun said: "We took these places down, not only to have territory, but also to give our army a greater defense depth. We can use our army's high mobility to eliminate invading enemies in the depth of defense. In this way, the people on our border will be safe. It will not be like in the past. Every time an enemy attacks on the border, the people will always be injured."
