Chapter 356: Zhu Xin's Preparation
On the second day, 10,000 city guards and 20,000 border army gunners also followed Chen Xiong to Qinghai Lake.
Zhu Yuan and Tru will be the supervisors of the planting area, and the city guards will also get some of the grain after the grain is harvested.
Qinghai Lake, which is more than 4,000 square kilometers, is 100 kilometers long and about 50 kilometers wide.
Qinghai Lake is a saltwater lake and cannot be directly irrigated for drinking, but the rivers flowing down from the surrounding snow-capped mountains make the Qinghai Lake area not short of water.
This time, Chen Xiong did not directly cast the energy in the ground, but used the energy of life to slowly integrate into the seeds.
The advantage is that the seeds will only start to germinate after they are in the soil, so there is no need for Chen Xiong to run around. However, the downside is obvious, these seeds need to be slowly warmed for at least two hours, and they must be planted within ten days.
Now that the ground has not opened, he can only warm the seeds first.
Fortunately, tens of thousands of war oxen participated in ploughing the land, but because the plough was not enough, they could only let the war oxen take turns to fight.
Qinghai Lake is a paradise for fish, birds, and a variety of animals, and its pale waters are as clean and pure as the sky.
After a few days in Qinghai, 30,000 soldiers have also begun to grow grain. This time, there are no seedlings, just seeds are filled into the soil.
The seeds that are about to explode in their inner life can grow on the stone as long as there is water. The radiant nature of the energy also makes rats, insects and ants dare not steal seeds.
After a simple farewell to Zhu Yuan Tru, thirty-one cranes also soared into the sky. On the plateau, they could not fly to two thousand meters, only to a thousand meters in the air.
With white clouds above and mountains below, this plateau mountain range is like the place where the ancient giants live.
The shadow of the emperor slowly disappeared, and Tru also had a complicated mind. He's never seen it as simple as planting! The Emperor said: After turning over the soil and burying the seeds, and then pouring water, you can sit back and wait for the harvest.
Plants from the south or north, such as rice, wheat, melons, fruits, and vegetables, are actually planted on the plateau. Originally, he wouldn't believe it, but he didn't dare to be sure when he thought of the emperor's magic.
The crane has also walked around the Qinghai area in the past few days, and the crane of the Han Emperor appeared on the plateau, which is what most herdsmen have seen. This also made the Qiang and Tumut people have to doubt that the Han Emperor really belongs: the gods descend to earth.
Chen Xiong's trip also broke the only belief of plateau people. Previously, they only believed in the gods and messengers of the gods: the god-king. Now the object of their belief also faintly has the shadow of the emperor.
……
After the crane team flew over Al Jin Mountain, the speed also increased by one point. Even if there is energy supplementation, the amount of oxygen on the plateau also affects the physical strength of the crane.
As soon as they crossed the main mountain range, the crane team also began to stop and rest.
As soon as he stopped, Chen Xiong also took out a pen and paper to write a letter to Zhu Xin, he didn't want to make a surprise attack, and he also asked Zhu Xin to inform the leaders of the various departments in Turpan.
After writing the letter, the two flying eagles also flew over immediately. The eagles were resting on the cranes' backs, and they were still in good spirits.
After tying up the letter, Chen Dong said: "Keep flying north and find the same kind of figure." ”
There were 100 flying eagles in the first army on the border, and these flying eagles usually flew and wandered around the border and in Turpan.
Flying eagles also have simple wisdom, after Chen Xiong finished speaking, the two flying eagles nodded and flew up.
"Dumb~dumb~~" After the crisp voice came, the flying eagle was already moving at full speed in the sky.
After a day's rest on the hill, the crane team also set off.
The crane is 200 kilometers in one hour, and after more than two hours, the old and new cities of Turpan are already visible to the naked eye.
Today's Turpan New City is also still laying the foundation. This is not a mainland with abundant human resources, and it will take at least several years to build it completely. When the Silk Road resumes, Turpan will become the empire's only trading city in the Western Regions and Central Asia.
In the large open space at the entrance of the barracks of the First Army, 50,000 soldiers of the Multilateral Army were already lined up, and there were even artillery pieces pointing directly at the sky.
The dense number of cannons, Su Litang also saw it for the first time, and he secretly counted it.
Seeing Su Litang like this, Sun Ke couldn't help but smile secretly and said: "Don't count, there are two hundred small cannons and seventy field artillery." That's half more than Commander Lin Hu's second army! ”
"Huh! Nothing to do! Just count them! Su Litang smiled awkwardly! After seeing the battle formation of the border army, he was even more shocked! If they had fought against these Emperor's own soldiers before, I am afraid that their eastern army would have been even more desperate!
After standing for an hour, tens of thousands of people were speechless, and even the surrounding cattle and horses were looking forward to it.
"Dumb~Dumb~Dumb~" Several flying eagles in the air suddenly swooped down, if they didn't know that it was their own flying eagles, they thought they were going to attack Zhu Xin.
At this time, the lookout hand on the wooden tower also saw the figure of the crane group.
"Commander, the crane is within ten kilometers." The estimate was not clear, and the lookout could only speak vaguely.
Zhu Xinyi smiled happily: "Haha! Beat the drum and blow the trumpet! The salute is also ready. ”
"Honorable Order."
Seeing the movement of the border army, the people of Turpan also hurriedly stared into the distance.
Knock knock~~
Om~Om~~~
Bell bell ~ bell ~~ Even the big gong came to join in the fun.
The sound of war drums was heard, and the crane team began to accelerate its sprint.
The big white wings fanned one by one, and the figure of the flying crane was getting closer and closer.
"Haha! Here it comes! Putting down the binoculars, Zhu Xin couldn't help laughing.
Bian Yijun was the farthest away from the lord, and knowing that the lord was going to come to see them, Zhu Xin also laughed for a long time yesterday.
"Huh! What do they watch? Su Litang also raised his head, and looked at it as if it was nothing.
But there seemed to be a small white shadow, and now he also looked carefully.
Boom~Boom~~ A crane chirp also faintly came.
After a while, the crane was able to see clearly.
"It's really a crane!" Sun Ke thought that Zhu Xin was exaggerating, but he didn't expect that there was really someone on the big white crane!
The crane is getting closer and closer, and the huge crane also appears above everyone's heads.
"Ahh Immortality! This is! Su Litang's head immediately short-circuited, there was really someone on this big white crane!
It was almost over, and Zhu Xin immediately waved his hand.
Then the flag-bearers, who had been prepared for a long time, also began to wave.
The gunners on both sides of the kilometer saw the command flag move, and they immediately became excited.
"Okay, fire the gun, fire the gun."
Boom boom ~ ~ Ninety-nine and eighty-eight field guns roared one after another.
Xiu ~ The specially made cannonballs also roared through the air and rushed into the sky.
Boom~ like thunder in the sky, the colorful firelight is as dazzling as fireworks.
The crane was not frightened, but also chirped.
Boom~Boom~~ The unique crane sound is also deeply in everyone's ears.
The color bullets in the air still hang in the sky for a long time! At this time, Chen Xiong knew that when he was about to leave Guangzhou, Zhu Xin had already prepared this scene! Sure enough, they are the best silver officers in this batch.
The crane was already in sight, and the air currents were already blowing their hair.
"Meet my lord."
"Meet my lord." Tens of thousands of fighters immediately shouted in succession.
Then the heavy horses and bulls also roared.
The thunderous sound made Su Litang's head buzz.
"He knew that the emperor's prestige was high, but he didn't expect that he had reached the bones of the border army!"
Although the border army did not kneel, Su Litang and other patriarchs even followed Sun Ke and other Liangzhou generals to kneel down and salute. This is the first time they have met the emperor, and the number of courtesies is naturally indispensable.
After the cattle and horses quieted down, Su Litang also took the lead in worshipping again: "Turpan Governor Su Litang pays a visit to the emperor, and the empire will last forever." ”
"Empire for eternity, eternal for ever." The clan leaders also shouted in Chinese, and of course they would only say that.
