Chapter 246: Looking at the Stars in the Star Gorge
Yixingxia is located at the end of the northern end of the Hexi Corridor, and for later generations of people in the Western Regions, leaving their hometown from here means leaving the territory.
For those who go north from here, the moment they step here, a new style will come to their faces, not only the desert-like Gobi Desert, but also the cultural differences that are very different from the hinterland of the Central Plains.
Suning followed the army of the western expedition, and came here step by step, only to see that between the mountains, an S-shaped road winds through it, and the evening wind on the desert hunts and hunts, flowing through here at an almost crazy speed, Suning only feels that even he has to be blown up by the wind, if there is a flagpole for him to grab, then he can become a flag in an instant.
Since the gift-giving team was not in a hurry, he simply led the team, retreated a distance, and then set up camp, ready to rest for a while, and then passed through the pass with very bad natural conditions.
In the middle of the night, Suning took out a map in the tent and began to write and draw on it, not long ago, they had passed by a treacherous place, and many generals who accompanied him at that time said that it was a dangerous place where a man could not open it, and he should immediately build a city there to ensure that the north gate of the Hexi Corridor was safe enough.
Suning actually has a similar idea, including Yumen County in Jiuquan County, should set up a strengthened version of the fortress for defense, Yumei should have become a well-known Yumen Pass at home and abroad earlier, and the location next to him is actually a well-known place, that is, Jiayu Pass.
In this way, there are at least three important checkpoints between the Hexi Corridor and the Spanish language that can be defended. If this war doesn't go well enough, these levels can at least be used to temporarily block the pursuers from the Western Regions.
Of course, this is very unlikely. However, just in case, and in order to facilitate the fight against illegal activities such as smuggling in the future, Suning still believes that it is necessary to set up a closed city here. It just so happened that the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who had been captured from the Central Plains did not have a proper place to be placed, so it was better to get them over and use them as laborers.
As for Xingxing Gorge, it will become a series of fortresses, and similarly, there will be improvised roads and railways passing through it, linking the Hexi Corridor with the Hami area.
The Hami region is still agriculturally promising, and Suning plans to grow alfalfa extensively here as a basis for animal husbandry. In fact, he implemented this policy in most of the four counties of Hexi, especially after his store system was further upgraded, a large number of alfalfa seeds were trafficked into this time and space, which became the basis for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry in the Hexi Corridor.
In addition, one of the specialties of the Hami region, the cantaloupe, which is well-known at home and abroad, will also become an important agricultural product of Suning. After ripening, these cantaloupes will be transported by rail to Hanyang County as quickly as possible, and if possible, they will continue to be sold south to Hanzhong County and even Shuzhong District.
At the same time, beef, lamb and even rabbit will be the flagship product of the region. Moreover, the processing industry of these foods will become the focus of support in the next period of time.
This is his arrangement for the Hami area! Of course, the premise is that he first needs to attribute this place to his ambition, fortunately, there is no strong country here, if you go further north, there will be a strong country like Gaochang and Shule, if you believe more, you will encounter a big country like Yanqi, and the essence of the Western Regions is further west under the Green Ridge Mountain. The water resources near there have brought sufficient conditions for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry, and if Suning wants to extend its tentacles there, it will probably take three or four years to slowly brew. If he happens to have time now, there are still four years before the biggest turmoil in the imperial court, that is, Dong Zhuo's usurpation of power. And the inexplicable relationship between her and Dong Zhuo is enough for him to be able to influence the actions of the race when necessary. At least it will delay his march to the capital for a while, so that his development in Xinyu will be more comfortable.
If according to common sense, it is best for him not to use the relationship with Dong Zhuo, because it will likely cause more unknowable future, if he suddenly gives up his plan to enter Beijing to hold the emperor hostage, then, you know that history will undergo extremely significant changes, the princes will not jointly fight against Dong The matter will not happen, and the chaos in the world may also be achieved in another way, and whether the Guanzhong region will also suffer a catastrophe, which will directly affect whether he has the right name to rescue the people there, And further grasp the rich Guanzhong region.
A little Dong Zhuo has so many interests involved, which can't help but make him cautious and cautious. Therefore, it is best for him to complete the deployment in the Western Regions as much as possible.
Suning slowly raised his head and looked at the sky, due to the strong wind nearby, there were no clouds in the sky in this area, blocking his vision. The stars in the sky can therefore spread their starlight to the vast land without hindrance.
It's a pity that Suning may not have much time to pay attention to the changes in the sky in the future. Because on the ground, there will be more and more armies named after stars, busy for his system, fighting to the death for his people, and advancing together for his dreams.
Speaking of which, shouldn't this vast Hami region also set up a Huluduo?
According to the important geographical location here, this Zarudor should be a heavyweight existence. Perhaps a certain constellation in the 12th house of the zodiac should be used to indicate its existence.
In the future, there may be countless flocks of sheep galloping on this vast grassland, and the roasted whole sheep in the Western Regions, you are one of the foods that Suning liked very much in his previous life, perhaps the title of Aries is most suitable for arranging here for Huluduo.
Then the Aries festival envoy is Attila, the whip of God. I am afraid that in this vast area, he will be able to give full play to the flexibility and advantages of light cavalry.
Of course, the first thing he has to do is to make the people of the Western Regions living in this area quickly submit, and according to Suning's idea, the speed of convergence of values should be further accelerated. Most of the traditional customs of the local people can be preserved, but Suning will use a new way of life to lead them to gradually make changes. One day, there will be no difference between them and the Han people in the Central Plains, and they will become a real family!
