Shang County is the first stop after the Heifu and his party enter the customs, Shang County is also called "Shang Yu Land", in the Spring and Autumn Period, it belongs to the Jin Dynasty, because it is in the Luoshui upper source, also called Shangluo. Later, the Jin State was divided into three parts, and the Shang land was returned to the Wei State, and Wei Ying entered the Qin to preside over the law change, began to counterattack the Wei State, seized this place, and was sealed by Qin Xiaogong in Shang Yu Fifteen Yi, so it was called "Shang Ying".

Now more than 100 years have passed, but Shang County, but there is no tomb and old things of Shang Ying.

"It's probably not going to end well."

Heifu walked around the county and thought to himself.

Although Shang Ying's changes were strong in Qin, they offended Gongzi Qian, the crown prince, and the princes, not to mention that he still occupied Shang Yu 600 li of land, equivalent to one-third of the territory of Qin. Qin Xiaogong did fulfill his promise to "divide the country", but once Xiaogong died, all this would become something that would put Shang Yang to death......

If Shang Ying is like in the TV series, he calmly accepts the restraints and righteousness, maybe he can really become a saint who sacrifices his life for the Fa. Unfortunately, as far as Heifu knew, Shang Ying's final struggle seemed a little ugly and stupid.

When King Qin Huiwen succeeded to the throne and Gongzi Qian and his group wanted to liquidate him, Shang Ying's first reaction was to run away, but he was rejected from the guest house because he did not bring a test passenger, so there was an idiom of self-restraint.

Shang Ying finally relied on a forged test to get out of the border and return to Wei, but the Wei people resented him for deceiving his best friend Gongzi Ang and killing countless Wei people, refused to take him in, and even deliberately drove him back to Qin.

Shang Ying can also be regarded as a toss, returning to the fief from outside the Wei River, gathering his subordinates, mobilizing the soldiers in Yizhong, and attacking Xianyang to the north to seek the last way to survive.

But this desperate struggle was quickly extinguished by the Qin State, Shang Ying was killed in the chaos of the army, and was sentenced to five horses to divide the corpse, the whole family was punished, and left behind "Mo Shang Yang rebel!" ", adding a bloody case to Qin Luli's crime of treason.

Fortunately, King Qin Huiwen is wise, although Shang Ying is dead, the Qin Law has not been abolished, otherwise there would be no King Qin sweeping ** today.

"From the day Shang Ying made a decree for Qin, his end was doomed."

Heifu realized that the defeat of Shang Ying, on the one hand, was that he made too many enemies politically, had too deep grievances, lost the upper class, and did not make the people of the bottom Qin people at that time love him, and when Shang Ying died, the people of Qin had no one to pity him.

On the other hand, his authority was completely dependent on the Qin monarch, and the Qin state laws were also built around the monarch. Neither Qin Jun nor Qin Law would allow a large feudal monarch to exist. When Qin Xiaogong was in power, he still trusted him, and once he changed the monarch, he was bound to kill him quickly.

"Relying too much on the monarch, trying too hard to do things for the country, not hesitating to make enemies on all sides, it is bound to be as dangerous as the morning dew, and finally the monarch collapsed and died, and the affairs of Shang Ying and Wu Qi were also ......"

With this insight, Heifu left Shang County the next day and continued to the northwest.

They still take the Wuguan Road, this road along the north side of the Danshui River valley to open up, it is really not wide, many sections of the road are rugged and rugged, the road is cramped, and there are more cars and horses along the way.

Fortunately, the black lord has a higher position, and ordinary people give way to him. Fortunately, it is not summer or autumn, otherwise the river rises and often washes out the road.

This terrible journey experience did not come to an end until they crossed the remaining veins of the Qinling Mountains through the pass. After crossing the pass, the front suddenly opened up, farmland and houses became dense, and a stream of water rushed down from the remaining veins of the Qinling Mountains, slowly flowing to the northwest.

This water is Ba Shui, the upper reaches of Ba Water are very clear, and the touch is cold. And from a distance, there are still many people on the riverbed digging with tools at the water's edge. When I got closer, it was a light blue jade mine, and the sun shone on it, looking hazy like cooking smoke, which was amazing......

"The second beauty of jade is called blue."

Heifu pointed to the bustling county town looming on the other side of Bashui, and said to his cousin and the royal Sangmu: "Lantian has arrived!" ”

……

"You don't believe it, a hundred years ago, the Chu State fought here."

While resting by the water, Heifu told the royal Sangmu about the allusions he had heard from Zhang Han, a native of Guanzhong, when he was in the army.

Even though Sang Mu was an honest man, he was shocked and a little incredulous.

"Lord, this is already the hinterland of Guanzhong, we have come from Nanjun, we have passed several dangerous passes, and it took more than a month, how could the Chu army hit this!?"

"Absolutely."

At that time, Qin Prime Minister Zhang Yi deceived King Chu Huai and promised to cut off the merchant in 600 li, and King Chu Huai believed it to be true, so he broke off relations with Qi State. As a result, Zhang Yi said that all he promised to the state of Chu was six miles of land......"

"Then King Chu Huai is really stupid."

Sang Mu was amused, although he was a native of Western Chu in Nanjun, he no longer had any sense of belonging to Chu. The authentic Chu people mentioned the King of Chu Huai, they all took pity on him, such as sad relatives, in history, Xiang Yu's uncle and nephew took advantage of the psychology of the Chu people and made a "King of Chu Huai" out.

But in the eyes of Heifu, Sang Mu and others, King Chu Huai could no longer be described in other words except stupidity.

In short, after being deceived by Zhang Yi, King Huai of Chu was furious and launched a large army to attack Qin, but was defeated in Danyang, the Chu army was beheaded 80,000, and more than 70 generals such as Chu General Qu Kuo were killed or captured, and Hanzhong was also taken away by King Qin.

King Huai of Chu was unwilling, after the defeat of Danyang, he mobilized the feudal monarchs of the whole country and continued to attack the Qin State, but was lured deep by the Qin army, let them pass the Wuguan, and fought until Lantian......

Once with the strength of a country, he fought against the King of Zhou and the Central Plains Zhuxia, and when he arrived in the Warring States, he also had one of the strongest Chu in the world, which was from the battle of Danyang and Lantian to decline.

It's no wonder that Qu Yuan is so distressed, he was born at a node in the decline of the Chu State.

At this time, it was only the middle of January, and it was still early before the deadline to enter Xianyang, Heifu made a small turn in the convoy, and wanted to go to see the old battlefield of Lantian, but before he could get closer, he was stopped by a team of patrolling Qin soldiers.

After some inquiry, Heifu learned that the old battlefield in front of him was now the station of the "Lieutenant Army".

He had done his homework before entering the customs, so he knew that there were three armies stationed in the Guanzhong Inner Land of the Qin State.

Among them, Heifu is likely to go to the Lang Zhong Ling Army, which is the personal guard officer corps of the King of Qin, with 700 Lang officials and 3,000 Lang Wei, stationed in the palace.

There is also a guard army, responsible for the garrison and security of Xianyang City and its suburbs, with a number of 10,000.

In addition, it is the lieutenant army, as the garrison force in the internal history area, the lieutenant army is divided into several captains, not only Wuguan Commander, Hangu Commander, but also Lantian Commander, Linjin Commander, Yongxian Commander, etc., the number is not less than 50,000.

This area is the camp of the Captain of Lantian, and the black man almost broke into the military restricted area.

Fortunately, he was just unintentional, and he was still the commander of the left, so he was only warned a few words by the lieutenant soldiers of the team, and then let them leave.

Heifu looked back in the car and saw from a distance that the camp of Lieutenant Lantian's army was neat, waving flags, and the sound of soldiers training was endless, which was a relatively elite unit of the Qin State.

They were stationed in Lantian, presumably to prevent the recurrence of the Chu army's attack on this place a hundred years ago.

It's a pity that in history, the customs defense of the Qin State was still broken all the way from Wuguan and Lantian.

And he is still from the Chu State......

After this little episode, they continued to travel north along Bashui, and when they arrived here, they entered the suburbs of Xianyang. But I saw that this place is a flat river, the yellow soil is thousands of miles, the fertile field is long, it is the busy season of spring ploughing and farming, and the old Qin people in Guanzhong are busy working in the field.

This year's year is good, the spring rain is abundant, the winter wheat in the field is already lush, and the wind blows, the tender green wheat seedlings are undulating. In those bare fields, millet and soybeans have also been planted. The ditches at the edge of the fields are also scattered, and the water conservancy projects organized by the government can bring water here to irrigate crops.

As far as Heifu can see, almost every family uses oxen to plow, but I don't know if it is his own ploughing ox or borrowed from Lizhong.

He heard that Guanzhong has more water conservancy, and cattle farming, and under intensive cultivation, the yield per mu is twice that of Nanjun! Half of the military rations eaten by the Qin army against Wei and Chu were transported out of Guanzhong, I don't know if Ye Tenglai made an internal history and implemented the method of composting and manure, can it make Guanzhong's grain output go to a higher level?

As they passed by, the farmers in the fields sang simple Qin folk songs while sowing seeds......

"The government of the king is unremitting day and night. Worrying and compassionate, hard-working. In addition to doubts, we know what to do. Except for the last peasant, the head of Qiantou is rich. ”

Although they are all words of praise for merit, everyone still has the strength to sing, which shows that they can eat enough on weekdays. And everyone's face, although they were tanned by the sun and bronzed like Kuroo, was full of smiles.

There was not only the joy that the war could come to an end, but also the pride of the people in the suburbs of the capital at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and they all shouted and greeted the strangers who passed by.

"Why are these farmers full of shame, they are in Nanjun, after the spring ploughing is over, they just want to sleep in the grass, how can they still have the strength to shout." Sang Mu was a little puzzled and asked Heifu.

"Don't underestimate these farmers, maybe if you call one of them out, the title will be higher than yours!"

After following Heifu for more than two years, the rank of Sangmu has gradually risen, and now it is not more, he is a little unconvinced, and when he stopped to drink the horse, he asked the old farmer who was chatting in the pavilion.

As a result, the old farmer glanced at this ignorant outsider with contempt, and said with a thick Qin accent: "Doctor Guan." ”

Now the mulberry is served.

Heifu said to him: "The children of Guanzhong have fought for more than a hundred years, and they have accumulated over several generations, even if each generation is promoted to a higher level, it is terrible. ”

"I think his family is very wealthy."

Yan couldn't help but cheer Xiao Jiujiu, and suddenly felt that the two thousand catties of brown sugar pulled in the car would definitely be sold at a good price in Xianyang and Guanzhong!

After walking through dozens of rich and prosperous towns that are constantly smelling chickens and dogs, a stone pier wooden bridge across Bashui also appeared in front of the group......

This bridge is 100 steps long, there is a towering Huabiao at the head of the bridge, each stone pier on the bridge is carved with all kinds of Rui beasts, look at the opposite bank in the distance, then see the embankment five miles, plant willow ten thousand trees, it is not spectacular.

A few officials who had been on the same road with them since coming from Lantian enthusiastically introduced to Heifu: "This is the Baqiao, cross the Baqiao, and then cross the Weishui from Bashang, Xianyang is close in front of you!" ”

However, just when the group was about to board the bridge, a heavily armed group of men and horses came from the west bank of Bashui, all with serious expressions, wearing armor and swords, and standing on the bridge with strong bows and crossbows.

More than 1,000 guards occupied Baqiao, and declared that Baqiao was under martial law today, and it would not be accessible until noon!

"The Weiwei army has been dispatched, could it be that the King of Qin is traveling?"

Heifu's eyelids jumped, and he saw that the leading Qin general was familiar, and when he got closer, it was his old boss in the battle to destroy Wei, Yang Xiong!

However, Yang Xiong, who was high in the past, looked at his dress, and the title was only the head of the left, and he had been caught up by Heifu!
