Even though Huang Changshi said before that the county town was so rich, Zhang Yuan was still surprised by such a temple-like city that was displayed in front of Zhang Yuan at this moment.

The color inside and outside of this city is very similar to a game called Temple Escape that Zhang Yuan played in his previous life.

There are no walls, and everyone lives in one valley.

The temple made of the boulder in the middle is supposed to be the palace of Yelang Kingdom, probably because it has been too long, and all corners have been covered with moss.

There must be a waterfall at the back of the valley, which shrouds the whole palace in vapour.

People's faces are all hung with the color of yearning for a better life, because the Tang and Meng factions are building roads, for the sudden Han people, all of them did not show surprise, still working on their own.

Looking at the stone pillars carved with statues of gods, Zhang Yuan has a sense of déjà vu of Angkor Wat in China.

He had never seen the Great Wall before, and the palace in Chang'an City was more serious to him than the artistic component, and now he was relaxed in front of such a palace made of huge stones.

"It seems that the people of the Barbarian Land have not learned how to build palaces out of wood, and this county town looks quite strange."

Ji Fu sneered on the side, and did not shy away from his sense of superiority in his tone.

At this time, Zhang Yuan was thinking about how to protect such an artistic treasure, and Atlantis in the West was afraid that it would be nothing more than that.

The reason why there was no trace of the destruction of this city, Zhang Yuan had already thought of it. It must have been because of the thirst for gold, and the army of the Han Dynasty turned this place upside down in search of it.

"Sir, if you can't volley the house in this southwestern land and choose wood as the main body to build the house, do you know what the consequences will be?"

Ji Fu looked puzzled, he had been despised by Zhang Yuan too many times along the way, no way, anything here was new to him. As for why Zhang Yuan knew so much, he was very suspicious, Zhang Yuan was not the first time to come to Yelang at all.

"What can be the consequences?"

Tang Meng said with a smile on the side.

"Mr. Jifu, if you use wood as the main body to build a house, it will be humid and rainy in the southwest, and there are many strange insects that like to eat wood cores, which can be as short as a few months or as long as two years, and they will completely rot and be damaged.

The thatched houses we saw along the way were also because there was a lot of thatch, and the people could replace them in time, while the nobles lived in stone houses. ”

Ji Fu now didn't like being suppressed by Zhang Yuan everywhere, so he no longer paid attention to these common sense questions, and asked Tang Meng instead.

"Why have you never seen the 100,000 elite soldiers of Yelang Country along the way?"

The mission, together with this more than 1,000 army, has reached the entrance of the valley, and it seems that it is about to enter the living area of the people of Yelang Kingdom, but there is still no army to stop it, and there are no checkpoints along the way, and the attitude of the people of Yelang Country towards the undefended Han army makes Ji Fu believe more and more in Zhang Yuan's rhetoric.

Involved in the deception, Tang Meng was now very embarrassed, and coughed lightly twice and said.

"There is no difference between the people of Yelang and the Han people in appearance, they are naturally close to us, and this Yelang country is like the Huns, everyone is a soldier, once there is a battle, Yelang Hou Duotong can quickly assemble an army of 100,000 people."

Over the years, Liu Che has heard too many lies and some illusory things.

Zhang Qian, who went west, now doesn't know which Hun woman is busy making people on the belly, and the legendary Yueshi is still in the fog.

Now Yelang Country is like this again, how can it make people excited, Liu Che's strategy of long-distance close attack has almost failed, but no one is willing to remind him. Line

"Okay, don't dwell on it so much, Lieutenant General Lang, I'm here as an envoy to Yelang, Yelang Marquis hasn't sent anyone to greet him yet, so there won't be any clues."

If so many people were to dry outside the city for half an hour, just like the one in Fuguan, it would not be a slap in the face of Zhang Yuan, but a slap in the face of the Great Han Kingdom, Liu Che would never tolerate such a thing.

Tang Meng made a gesture at Zhang Yuan and hurriedly explained.

"Honorable envoy, the last general will send someone to inform Yelanghou to go out of the city to greet him, and please let the envoy rest easy."

Immediately after Tang Meng made a few colors, several of his personal soldiers pulled the reins and ran towards the palace in the center of the county seat. At this moment, Tang Meng was also very anxious in his heart, and the soldiers who went to deliver the news to Duotong were sent out at least six or seven, and now it seems that it has no effect at all.

After a quarter of an hour, Tang Meng saw a large crowd of people rushing towards him in the distance, and he was relieved in his heart.

Yelang Hou Duotong was sitting on a bamboo sedan chair at the moment, decorated with silver, gold and various gemstones, and his clothes were very exaggerated.

In front of and behind him, there were thousands of Yelang soldiers holding bronze weapons and wearing rattan armor, and the closer they got to Zhang Yuan and the others, the slower their speed became.

By the time Duotong approached Zhang Yuan's side, Zhang Yuan could already feel his arrogant eyes.

"The ancients did not deceive me."

Zhang Yuan slowly said these words in a tone that others couldn't hear clearly.

Tang Meng saw that Duotong was finally here, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said.

"Honorable envoy, this is the monarch of Yelang Country, Yelang Hou Duotong.

Yelang Hou, this is Zhang Yuan, the envoy sent by my Han Emperor. ”

The Marquis of Yelang is the title given to Duotong after Liu Che agreed to Tang Meng to set up Qianwei County in Yelang State, and it stands to reason that Duotong is now just a courtier of the Han Dynasty, although he is a foreign minister, he is also a courtier.

Zhang Yuan didn't speak, but sat steadily on his horse, waiting for Duotong to give him a salute.

There is no reason for the envoy of the kingdom to give a salute to the monarch of the subordinate country, at least Zhang Yuan thinks so in his heart.

This time the main reason for coming is to deter by force, there are thousands of soldiers around him, more than 100 soldiers, whether they enter the palace or block at the mouth of this valley, the people of Yelang Country in the county town are like turtles in the urn.

Seeing that Zhang Yuan had not spoken, coupled with Huang Changshi and Tang Meng, who had been signaling with their eyes, they had no choice but to step down from the sedan chair.

In front of Zhang Yuan, he bowed slightly and shouted.

"The monarch of Yelang has seen many envoys from the kingdom."

Duo Tongxiang was very dissatisfied that Liu Che only gave him a marquis, not a prince.

Zhang Yuan glanced at Duotong and opened his mouth to say to him.

"Lead the way, Your Majesty has something for me to discuss with the Marquis of Yelang."

Duotong didn't know what he was thinking, just nodded, then turned back to the sedan chair, and walked towards the palace.
