Shu is connected to Longling in the north, to the land of barbarian miasma in the south, to Kunlun in the west, and to the Luoying Mountains in the east and the Chu State to Jingdi as the boundary.

When Yao Jun established the Shu Kingdom, he originally wanted to build a huge fortress for Shenzhou to resist the attack of the Rong army in the future.

It can be said that Hedong County is a miniature version similar to Shu Kingdom, and Shu Kingdom is Hedong County that is more than ten times larger.

Among them, on the Longling Ridge, which is separated from the north and south by Lishan, Xiaoshan and even the southern foot of the Sumeru Mountains, countless passes of all sizes have been built and distributed since ancient times.

These passes have a significant characteristic, that is, "one man should be closed, and ten thousand people cannot be opened." ”

Except for some of them under the jurisdiction of Shubei County of Qin, most of them are distributed in the north of Shu, especially led by Jiange Xiongguan.

However, I am afraid that Yao Jun did not expect that her foresight would finally come in handy hundreds of years later.

I don't know if Yao Jun can live until now, she will be proud or helpless about it?

Shu is surrounded by mountains, and most of these mountains are huge.

Therefore, in the history of Shu, there are very few deeds of getting involved in the Central Plains or invading other countries, of course, if other countries want to invade Shu, it is difficult to climb to the sky.

Although, in the past hundred years, because of the contradiction of the ownership of Jingdi, Shu and Chu have often fought against each other, but both countries know in their hearts that the Luoying Mountain Range is the ultimate natural boundary, and this fight can be regarded as a dose of seasoning in the long history.

"Lord Gu, I heard that Jie Zi taught me in the past, this Shu people like comfort and most of them are unwilling to fight, and the Shu people will not fight hard when they fight with other countries, I don't know if Lord Gu has been dealing with the Shu people for a long time, do you feel the special features of the Shu people?"

Walking in a carriage on a small road in Luoying Valley, Gu Daoyuan sat opposite each other, talking about the customs of Shu.

Gu Daoyuan naturally didn't have the kind of earnest teachings similar to those of the elders when he used to speak to Zhu Lihua, and after hearing Da Qin Zuo's inquiry about him at this moment, Gu Daoyuan hurriedly replied respectfully:

"Lady Jie Zi has traveled far and wide and is very knowledgeable, and what he says is indeed the truth.

If you look at the bigger people on the left, the terrain of Mt. Sakura outside the window is steep, and the roads everywhere are like the canyons we are walking in now. If a trench like this is guarded by a force of soldiers and horses, it will be as difficult for foreign enemies to attack it as it is to ascend to the sky.

Zuo Daren naturally knew that the terrain of Nalongling was far more precipitous than the Luoying Mountain Range, so since the founding of the Shu Kingdom, it has never been invaded by foreign enemies that have shaken the country's foundation.

Moreover, among the mountains on all sides, there are thousands of miles of fertile fields, so the Shu Kingdom has never had any turmoil since ancient times because of livelihood difficulties.

The Shu people are comfortable because there are no foreign enemies in the Kou and they will not worry about food and clothing, so the adults have this evaluation.

Gu also thought so. ”

After Gu Daoyuan finished speaking, he turned his eyes to look at the distant Zhu Lihua, but saw that the young Zuo Geng, who had grown a beard after the new heir, was already full of thoughts at this time.

Gu Daoyuan didn't say anything to disturb Lu Lihua's thoughts, but looked at the two white wolves looming in the mountains.

"General White Wolf!"

Gu Daoyuan pondered, and once again remembered in his mind the legend about the White Wolf General that Yaoping had come to Shu on the way to Shu Kingdom.

In fact, as a country's slaughtering tomb, Gu Daoyuan naturally knew that the deeds praised by those people were exaggerated.

Like what Lihua single-handedly provoked the marshal of the Rong Army, Lin Xu;

What Huangyin defenders resisted the 200,000 Rong army with 8,000 people for half a year, and beat the Rong army out of Xieyu Pass;

He Lihua was angry at the crown just for the sake of popularity, because he fell in love with the princess of the Great Xia Kingdom, so he killed the Rong soldiers and abandoned their armor to force the Rong army to hand over the princess.

Moreover, in this rumor, it is preached: Xie Yuguan's Kunpeng army actually heard that Zuo Lihua personally guarded Huangyin City, so he wanted to surrender, but he didn't notice that he was affected by Qiuzi, which led to the defeat of Lin Xu's Kunpeng army in Lihua.

Thinking of all kinds of bizarre rumors in the market, even Gu Daoyuan, who was over the age of six, couldn't help but feel a little funny when he peeked at Zhu Lihua.

"What is Lord Gu laughing at?"

Although Zhu Lihua, who was also looking out of the car window, did not turn his head, he saw the change in Gu Daoyuan's complexion with his peripheral vision. Gu Daoyuan hurriedly smiled and said, "Ah, the left is bigger." I remembered the story told by the storyteller I heard in Jingzhou City a few days ago, so I thought it was funny and laughed.

Please don't blame the people on the left. ”

Zhu Lihua turned his gaze to the gray-haired Gu Daoyuan's face, and suddenly smiled slightly:

"Lord Gu, the rumors are too exaggerated, besides, Huang Yin's victory was exchanged for the lives and blood of the soldiers, and the timely arrival of the reinforcements of the Chu State also played a key role. Of these, I am the only one who has the most modest credit.

In fact, that day in Jingzhou City, the exaggerated rumors in the mouths of the people must have been deliberately spread by the four princesses.

When she said this, she blushed slightly and looked embarrassed.

Immediately, he saw that Gu Daoyuan was about to speak again, so he hurriedly reached out and pressed Gu Daoyuan's arm and said with a smile:

Lord Zaizuka, you and I are alone in this carriage, so don't mention those false courtesies.

Besides, the words "don't blame the big left" came out of Gu's mouth, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.

I think that when Master Gu was in the center, my master Jie Zi still respected you.

Although there is a difference between dignity and inferiority, for a while, I am still not used to Lord Zaizuka's salute and speech to me.

Besides, this time I came to Shu with a big event in mind, so let's call each other according to the identity agreed in advance. ”
