Chapter 491: Chao Phraya River, Crossing the River
When I cleaned up the islands along the way and came to the Chao Phraya River Delta in the south of Bangkok, it was already more than ten days later, and the time had entered the winter of 312 AD.
The winter in the South China Sea does not feel like winter at all, and it is still summer clothes that should be worn, at most an autumn coat, Cao Xing, who had thought of this, did not prepare winter clothes for them.
Judging from this point alone, Lu Bu from Yanmen, one of the northernmost parts of the Han Dynasty, couldn't believe that it was already winter, and in terms of time, it was indeed yes.
Lu Bu, who is muscular, strong, hardy and frost-resistant, wears thinner than anyone else at this time, except for the armor that has just been invented and implemented in the army, but I don't understand why the inventor Cao Xing named it a t-shirt.
There are too many weirdness in Cao Xing, and it is difficult for anyone to doubt it when he gets used to it, and after calling it for a long time, it is called habitual.
No seasickness, no cold, landing, etc., so that Lu Bu only felt in a good mood:
"Lord, I can't believe that this is winter, this is something that we can't think of in Yanmen, I have the urge to go back to my hometown now and bring my fellow villagers here for the winter!"
"Yes! This is the most comfortable winter that my subordinates have ever had! ”
"Very much!"
"For this reason alone, it is several times better to stay in my hometown in the north!"
In the atmosphere of everyone sighing at the benefits of winter here, Cao Xing is happy to see, maybe there is a lot of applause at this time There is also a reason for this, with the promotion of status, the gap between master and slave is widening, and flattery is essential.
Flattery and catering is not a good thing, but it is not a bad thing, with these flattery and pandering, many things are implemented much more smoothly, and it is easy to mislead some real people to really believe, and these real people who really believe are Cao Xing's willing.
Therefore, flattery and catering is at most the necessity and necessity of identity, and people who pat sycophants do not mean that they can't do things, and Zhang Juzheng, the first minister of the Ming Dynasty, is quite good at slapping sycophants, but he has the grace of rebuilding the Ming Dynasty that has been in the national fortune for two hundred years at that time.
Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong will not be sycophants, but they are the ones who mutilate the common people and bury the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, Chen Qun brought the limelight again:
"My lord. This place is the place where the river is watered, and it is a natural harbor, so this must be the place where the subordinate Zhujue field is located? ”
"Those who know me are also long! This is the new stronghold, and the place where you can be resealed, and at the same time ......"
Cao Xing's face became solemn:
"Xun Su, Xun Di, Xun Yue, Xun You, Chen Guang, Chen Zhong, Chen Qun, Chen Jiao, come forward and listen to the seal!"
In the Wenchen team, eight people are listed:
"Inferior, here!"
"You and the other eight people as the main force of the accompanying ministers, along the way to make suggestions, copywriting, command construction, education and literacy, etc., are indispensable, today a special table to the court, please promote Fenger and others to the Pavilion Baron!"
"Thank you, my lord!"
The Yingchuan Xun family and the Chen family have been promoted one after another, and this scene makes Chen Zheng, who was not named, extremely proud.
The reason why Chen Zheng was not named was not because of his lack of ability, when it came to his ability, Xun Su and Chen Guang, the two elders were higher than their juniors, and the reason why he was not named was that he Chen Zheng was the second batch of scholars and ministers who came over with one pair of hands after Wang Xiu and Chen Yang, the only two scholars and ministers.
Chen Zheng was already a baron, and he was still the highest county baron, and he was only one step away from the existence of a viscount.
Chen Jiaguang's number of knights has surpassed the Xun family, which has been in the limelight recently, and it is Sixun who follows Cao Xing to the south, plus Xun Yu who stayed in Luoyang, and Wu Xun.
The Chen family is the sixth Chen, the four Chens who have just been crowned plus themselves, and Chen Yang, one of Cao Xing's number one henchmen.
With this alone, he is already worthy of Chen Zheng's pride, which he didn't dare to think of before, the unpopular son of the Chen family, and the origin of these benefits is still the concubine of the concubine, let alone the unpopular Chen Yang.
The fleet began to dock, and this time Cao Xuan did not release the landing boat, but still ordered loudly: "Turn the rudder and line up, sail into the big river!" In the future, the name of this river will be Yue River! ”
"Line up! Sail into the river! ”
The ocean-going fleet quickly changed its formation, put on a long snake formation at sea, and sailed into the Chao Phraya River in later generations, and now crossed the river.
The river is wide, but the water is not very clear, although it is not as turbid as the Yellow River, but it also shows that it contains a lot of sediment, sediment is fertile, they are the current riverbed, seabed, the future will slowly transform into fertile impact plains.
The ocean-going fleet sailed into the river, and finally stopped on the east bank of the river, and Cao Xing watched all this.
Looking at the topography alone, it is no longer obvious how far it is from the later Bangkok, but there is not much difference anymore, but these are not important.
Cao Xuan shouted:
"It doesn't matter what this place was like before, but from this moment on, this is the city of Yuehe!
The land of the Great Han! ”
"Lord Shengming!"
Wenwu responded loudly, and he had already begun to think about whether to really transfer Juetian here.
Cao Xing, who had guessed through Wenwu's thoughts, raised his hand and drew a circle: "Changwen, pick out 10,000 acres at will, and the land you pick in the future will be yours!" And forever! ”
10,000 acres
Many people exclaimed in their hearts.
Chen Qun is a baron of Ting, and one household in the food town corresponds to three people, shouldn't it be 300 acres? No matter how much it is, it is ten thousand acres per household, how can it be ten thousand acres?
Si Xun and Wu Chen have figured out the reason one after another, which makes Wu Chen even more excited.
Seeing that there are still people who are puzzled, especially the generals, Cao Xuan explained the reason, in a word, it is to add fire to the people who have moved to the seal:
"Changwen, you fancy here! It shows your foresight, and the prescient represents the unlimited future, and the future is unlimited, and the title will naturally not be limited.
10,000 acres corresponds to the earl!
10,000 acres is just a fief for you in advance, and I believe that in the future, you will be able to take this 10,000 acres as your own land!
At the same time, in order not to fall behind the infamy of favoring one over the other, within three days, all the knights who chose to change their titles here will advance ten times the number of knights in advance as a space for future promotion. ”
"The lord wins!"
"The lord is wise!"
The cheers sounded again, and from the "sincere" expressions one by one, many "pretenders" and "indiscriminate fillers" began to shake in their hearts, revealing a bit of sincerity.
The flag soldiers began to land, clearing a large area of space, and then the regular soldiers landed on alert, and the prisoners and their families began to land, and together with the flag soldiers, they began to cut down trees and prepare for the construction of the wooden city.
The long-term cooperation has made everyone tacit and efficient.
Chen Qun, who was appointed this time, led the personnel who surveyed the terrain and selected the site of the city on the east bank, and the history is always so similar, for future generations, it is Bangkok that is unbiased.
However, it now has a more resounding name - Xinyue City.
