Yashan is more than 100 zhang high, formed by seven peaks one after another, and there are nearly 10,000 acres of fertile land at the foot of its mountain. When the Holy Han and the Tartar Pagoda were reconciled, hundreds of thousands of Han Chinese people immigrated here, and they found this land conducive to cultivation, so they built a river embankment and built a golden city by the river. Since then, this place has become a large granary of the Tartar Tower, supporting hundreds of thousands of people on the grassland, and is known as the granary of Crowgold.

The holy mountain of the Tartar Tower is the Blue Wolf Mountain, and the Khan is the swallow city, but they are all barren land, and only the land of Jincheng is fertile and rich in grain in the entire Saibei Wasteland. Moreover, because of the great migration of the Han people, the tax revenue of Jincheng increased sharply, so Jincheng was not only a granary, but also the money bag of the Tartar Khanate. The southern Tartar chieftains discriminated against the poor of the other Tartar tribes because of their wealth, and the other Tartar tribes also wanted a piece of the pie, but the Southern Tartars refused, which led to the war. In fact, there is no force and high map, and there will be other people who will look at the golden land of Jincheng.

Looking at the tens of thousands of acres of fertile land, Zhang Xiaowu was shocked and said: "No wonder the army is on an expedition, but there is no need to prepare a large amount of grain from the rear, it turns out that the Yajin granary is so spectacular." "This 10,000 acres of fertile land is about to catch up with the North Warehouse on the earth where Zhang Xiaowu lives, but because a large number of Han people were killed last year, only half of the land in this year's Yajin Granary was planted with agricultural materials, and some were abandoned.

Some peasants were deworming in the fields, and when they saw the banner of the Han army from afar, they relaxed and continued to farm.

Wu Song said: "The grain in Jincheng is enough for a million people to eat for a year, so the Holy Han definitely wants to control this place. ”

Zhang Xiaowu sighed and said, "It is precisely because Jincheng is a battleground for soldiers that our Tucheng will be abandoned, you say so." ”

Wu Song knew something about Zhang Xiaowu, and knew that he was obsessed with the battle of Tucheng, but he didn't know how to comfort him, so he said after a while: "Wuhuan is advancing eastward, in order to also be a granary of crows, and the people of the Northern Tartar will regret it sooner or later." ”

There is a beech forest in front of the camp in Yashan, except for the beech trees, there are bulging tombs and tombstones, and there are only names on the tombstones, and there is nothing. The scouts who came to answer told everyone that this place was the grave of the saint Han soldiers who died on the front line, and the military advisor Gu Yong named this forest the Loyal Martyr's Forest, and beheaded 2,000 captives in the North Tartar Pagoda here to create the head mountain, in order to commemorate the tens of thousands of people who were slaughtered in the Golden City and the soldiers who died in battle. Those who have names have their names engraved on their tombstones, and those zelkova trees that do not have names are their names.

When Zhang Xiaowu and the others passed through the beech forest, they saw the white pagoda built by the human head, and they couldn't help but feel a pang in their hearts, and they were more interested in this famous Gu Junshi.

Gu Yonghuang's relatives and nobles were born, both civil and military since childhood, and at the age of eighteen, he was admitted to the martial arts champion, and he killed six enemy generals in a row when he first entered the battlefield, but he was almost pierced by an arrow because of an ambush, and he woke up in a coma for seven days. After recovering from his injury, Gu Yong fell into the root of lung asthma and could not gallop to kill the enemy. Gu Yong did not give up on himself because of this, he turned to participate in the imperial examination, and at the age of twenty-six, he won the literary champion in the third yuan, and I don't know how many literati students he envied.

Gu Yong also became the only civil and military champion in the history of the Central Plains, and Emperor Taiqian was overjoyed and named Gu Yong as the imperial envoy of the Hanlin Academy. Gu Yong accompanied Emperor Taiqian for ten years and gradually became Emperor Taiqian's first think tank. Gu Yonghou served as the crown prince Shaobao, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and a left servant of the Ministry of War. And the current crown prince Xuanyuan Zixun is Gu Yong's nephew, and the prince's biological mother Concubine Liang is Gu Yong's cousin, so this Gu Yong is the first princeling in the world.

"My lord, Gu Junshi is much more ruthless than you in killing." Xiao Kaidao.

Zhang Xiaowu said calmly: "Martial artists kill only a thousand, and literati kill people all over the world." The cold glint in his eyes burst out, and his tone became more and more flat: "The injury of Tucheng must have a lot to do with Gu Yong." ”

Xiao Kai hurriedly reminded: "My lord, be cautious, Tucheng is a taboo for the Qinglong Army. ”

"Hmph." Zhang Xiaowu said, "If you don't say it, don't you remember it in everyone's hearts?" Tucheng, the princelings murdered it! They have a share in my wife's enmity! ”

Everyone was silent, this was a family ugliness and personal hatred, and it was inconvenient for the rest of the people to advise, but Shen Lindong didn't know why, and when everyone continued to move forward, he rode his horse close to Xiao Kai. Although he had contradicted Zhang Xiaowu before, he did not target others, and he respected Xiao Kai, so he took the opportunity to ask the reason. Xiao Kai told him what he knew, and Shen Lindong sighed: "If I have such a big vendetta, I will kill myself to avenge it." ”

Although it was noon, the heroic forest was gloomy and cold, and Zhang Xiaowu couldn't help but whip through quickly, splashing dust. Looking back at the old forest, Zhang Xiaowu felt a little sad and wanton, there is still a place for the fallen soldiers in Yashan Jincheng to bury their bones, but the dead defenders and slaughtered people in Tucheng, where are the bones?

Thinking of the robes that took care of him but sacrificed, and the ordinary smiling faces in Tucheng, Zhang Xiaowu became more and more resentful of the crown prince.

Yashan and Jincheng are only ten miles together, during several Han army camp tents, the soldiers do not see the sergeant drill, in the rice field, some soldiers are weeding and exterminating insects, so unhappy, where there is the smell of war. Xiao Kai asked: "Shouldn't the former army be so lazy that it can't even do daily drills?" ”

Hu Li said: "I lost my soul after being beaten, a group of wine bags and rice bags, when I was here, I knew that they were wasted." Want me to say. ”

Zu Gongmao said: "I arrived here in October last year, and waited for a year to fight again, not only to give Inuyi time to repair, but also to give them time to assemble." ”

Zhang Xiaowu sneered and said, "Continue to hurry." ”

The generals hurriedly said, "Huh." ”

When I came to the camp of the Qinglong Army at the foot of Yashan Mountain, the camp of the dead soldiers sent an ultimatum, and soon someone came to accept the soldiers.

The task of escorting 3,000 soldiers was successfully completed, and the dead battalion was ready to return to Mucheng after replenishing food and water, but at this time, the military advisor Gu Yong sent someone to send the task, and urgently summoned the sixth regiment of the dead battalion to rush to Jincheng, so everyone immediately went to Jincheng Station.

Along the official road, the 900 soldiers of the dead battalion came to the city of Jincheng, and Wu Song talked about the history of this city again. At first, in order to supply 10,000 acres of fertile land for water conservancy, Emperor Taiqian ordered the construction of a dam on the south bank of the Jialan River, and then built a golden city next to the embankment. Now the Jincheng camp and the Yashan camp are supporting each other, and Inuyi has nothing to do about it.

handed over Guan Die, the dead battalion entered the city, and rushed to the Tunjun post station as required. Zhang Xiaowu saw that there were almost no people in the city, and walked two streets before everyone saw the first child. Zu Gongmao said: "After the North Tartar Tower went south, it first occupied Jincheng and killed almost all the Han men in the city. Last year, when I subdued Jincheng with the army, Gu Junshi ordered that all the people of the Tartar Pagoda who had moved here be killed in retaliation. ”

Hu Li said: "After all, Gu Junshi was born as a martial artist, and his killing heart is extremely strong. ”

Jincheng was slaughtered twice, so that there were very few people in the city, and everyone came to the Tunjun Post Station along the desolate streets to rest for a while.

Jincheng Post Station is near the gate of Jincheng West Gate, the post chief is a young officer about 30 years old, after talking, Zhang Xiaowu found that the two are still fellow villagers in Yongzhou. The post chief named Wang Pi said that he had also offended people, so he was sent to Jincheng Post Station, and that he must stay here when the army withdrew to the Central Plains in the future.

"You will be the lord of the city in the future." Zhang Xiaowu joked.
