Four hundred and fifty-one golden cities
Xu Huang has been quite depressed since he was transferred to Xiangyang, but he also knows the importance of Jingzhou, and Liu Zhang gave him such a high trust to ensure Jingzhou's safety. However, this also deprived him of the opportunity to go to the battlefield, but today he finally has a chance to go out of the mountain. I couldn't do anything before, but now I can finally send troops. With his headquarters, Xu Huang went all the way to Chang'an. In the past few years, he has not slacked off in his life, and none of his martial arts and art of war have been left behind, in order to fight again one day.
"The lord Xu Huang is here." Seeing Liu Zhang again, Xu Huang was still quite excited. As Liu Zhang, the authentic of the Han family, his change of local methods really made Xu Huang see that the Han Dynasty was about to flourish. Originally, he had his heart set on the Han family, but now he has to be like a fish in water with the Ming Lord.
Liu Zhang looked at Xu Huang's dusty appearance: "Gongming, it seems that your martial arts have not fallen, you are a general in Xiliang this time." Liu Zhang teased twice, although he could only chat with Xu Huang briefly a few times each time in Jingzhou. But this person has no problem, he is loyal to the Han family or himself.
"Lord Xu Huang has been waiting for this day for more than a day!" Xu Huang said in a deep voice, he really waited for this day for a long time.
Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Gongming is in a hurry, there will be many wars in the future, and you don't have a chance to be lazy?" "Liu Zhang's internal affairs have not been resolved, let alone the external affairs. With the expansion of his power, Liu Zhang also couldn't recognize himself a little.
Xu Huang got up and smiled helplessly: "I'm afraid that the lord is really not in a hurry, the situation in this world is so clear, I'm afraid only the lord can sit still." As a general, of course he understood that Liu Zhang's strength was very strong, but in this way, Liu Zhang was not in a hurry to attack Liu Bei or Cao Cao.
"We will prepare to send troops after two days of rest, but this time we will bring back a lot of prisoners, those Xianbei people use to build roads for us, to reclaim wasteland for us and plant trees." Liu Zhang has long taken a fancy to those cheap laborers, and they all came back one by one to do things, otherwise what a waste it would be to die in vain.
With Xu Huang in place, all kinds of cotton clothes and materials were also distributed. Liu Zhang is almost ready here, and it will be September in a few days, and it will be time to send troops. The Xianbei people in winter will think that it is safe, and this time let them understand what safety is.
In September, the weather was not so hot, and it was even cool on the grassland. In this era, there is no greenhouse effect, and the feeling of dry cold and dry cold can freeze many people to death. Fortunately, in recent years, Liu Zhang has developed a fire kang, which can make people in the north easily survive the long winter.
Wang Yi prepared a lot of clothes for Liu Zhang, afraid that he would freeze outside. This time he went to the north, and Liu Zhang was not going to take anyone with him. You must know that it is too cold there, and it is a big battle to go out and take them with you. However, Liu Zhang went out this time and brought enough seasonings, just to enjoy it when he was bored.
It is not difficult to make matches, and a small number of them are distributed to the soldiers, so that they can also make a proper fire when they are outside. The tactics of the game are to play well, and there is no shortage of such things as explosives packs. Every time I went out to find the camp of those big tribes, I turned around and threw an explosive bag into it. These things on the grassland all believe in gods, and this time Liu Zhang played a little them.
"Tomorrow, my husband will send troops, and my husband will have a good rest tonight." This month, I feel as if I have been lined up, from Cao Hua to Ganmei; From Wu Yi to Zou Fu......
The next morning, the army had already been mobilized, and Liu Zhang only needed to be with some of the foot soldiers here. Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu played the striker and went to Jincheng to see first, and Jincheng can also consider wind turbines for so many years. However, this matter is just considered to have not been built yet, and I will mention it to Wang Lei when I go this time.
Liu Zhang got on the horse but didn't change the armor, after all, the weather was still hot, and when he put on the armor, he was probably about to die when he got to Xiliang: "Go back, this time the problem of Xiliang has been solved, and you won't have to go again for many years in the future." "This time, how many people will Xianbei on this side of Xiliang lose? Anyway, Liu Zhang can be sure that this battle will kill Xiliang Xianbei. The next time he attacked Xianbei, he would dig his roots.
Waving goodbye to everyone, Liu Zhang rode his horse and chased forward. Xu Huang and others who followed Liu Zhang's side hurriedly chased after him, and when Zhang Ren left, he explained a very important thing to Xu Huang, that is, to ensure Liu Zhang's safety no matter what. He can die, but he must ensure Liu Zhang's safety.
There may not be many people walking on this road, but there must be the most vehicles. The merchants who went to the Western Regions, the merchants who went to Jincheng and Wuwei, had already trampled this place out of the solid ground. Even on rainy days, it is still solid land, but now from Chang'an to the west, there is a relatively wide cement pavement.
Natural asphalt has been discovered, but diluting this thing is too serious for air pollution, at least not in Chang'an. After diluting it, it was being beaten with stones and the like, and the last asphalt road appeared. At present, one of these roads has been built, and the practicality is much stronger than that of cement roads.
"If this kind of road is repaired to Xiliang, I'm afraid it will only take a few days for us to send troops. At that time, there was a situation at the border, and we could also quickly reflect it. "For Liu Zhang to like to build roads so much, no one is against it now. Of course, many people still don't understand such things as planting trees, but as long as someone does it, it's fine.
"Xiliang is a good place, as long as it doesn't desertify, it just keeps planting trees to the north." It will take decades for later generations to achieve results in sand management, and Liu Zhang feels that these can actually be passed down from generation to generation.
Xu Huang smiled: "Isn't it a good place in the eyes of the lord?" The lord of the barbarian land in the south also thought it was a good place, and the lord of the desolate land in the north sent troops to conquer that year. In the eyes of the lord, I'm afraid that the Central Plains is not very important. Xu Huang felt that no matter who he was, he would definitely chase the Central Plains, but Liu Zhang was doing trouble in the south and went to the north to make trouble. Doing things around is not going to the Central Plains, which makes Xu Huang very depressed.
Liu Zhang glanced at the depressed Xu Huang and said, "The best should be saved until the end, why don't I care about such a good place in the north?" It's just that the timing is not right now, if I send troops immediately, even if it is a two-front battle, I can kill them. But for the next ten years, I'll only be able to recuperate, right? The people of the north have been slain by me, how can I fight against other countries in the future? If you don't expand your territory, what kind of general will you be? "Inflated, nakedly inflated.
Along the way, Xiliang is still desolate, and compared to the area here, there are still too few people in Xiliang. However, when you enter the vicinity of Jincheng, there are traces of people here. There are hundreds of cattle and sheep grazing leisurely next to the lush alfalfa grass in the distance, and there is no need to worry about people rushing out there to snatch these cattle and sheep.
Liu Zhang's arrival still disturbed the herdsmen, but when they saw the banner of Liu Zhang's army, they also saw that they had no intention of being afraid. It's just that they don't know why Liu Zhang sent troops again, and the current situation in Xiliang is exceptionally stable. Those people of the Qiang tribe have not been suppressed by their own people for a long time. Liu Zhang thinks this is right, that is, his own people deal with his own people, and they are more ruthless than outsiders against them.
As he got closer and closer, Liu Zhang found that the outside of Jincheng had all turned into a concrete floor, and a large number of vendors gathered here. Liu Zhang's army didn't plan to go over, it was only a short supply here and it was going to leave. As soon as Liu Zhang's army stopped, Wang Lei hurriedly walked out of the city with a group of officials.
I haven't seen Wang Ti more and more generous for a few years, and occupying this kind of position for a long time is enough to give people a special upper temperament. But this also has something to do with people's personalities, for example, Liu Zhang can't see it when he's not serious. Wang Lei is a serious person, and he can't tolerate a little sloppiness in dealing with foreign races over the years.
In Wang Lei's memory, the last time he saw Liu Zhang was in the winter of the previous two years, and Liu Zhang came to Xiliang in winter. Although it is a little early now, I am afraid that Liu Zhang will be in Xiliang this winter.
Liu Zhang looked at Wang Lei's hurried appearance and couldn't help but say: "Yunzhong (Wang Lei's character) is in such a hurry, and we won't disturb the people." "Looking at the commotion in the market in the distance, it seems that everyone has seen it, but no one has run away or anything like that. In the past, when the people saw the soldiers, they were afraid that they would be gone.
"The lord laughed, there are nearly 100,000 Xianbei cavalry gathered in Xiliang, those alien races have been crisscrossing the grassland for a long time, and the lord must be cautious when he goes." After all, the grassland is someone else's territory, and Liu Zhang's victories are too many, what if he is arrogant?
Liu Zhang took the lead and walked towards the city, and Xu Huang and the others followed closely: "Yunzhong rest assured, although I led the troops, I didn't command the battle that time." I know better than anyone else what I am, this time it is Xiangyang General Xu Huang who is leading the troops, and I can rest assured that I can put one hundred and twenty with him. Speaking of which, Liu Zhang introduced Xu Huang, I heard that this person was the one who attacked Jingzhou back then.
The two sides said hello, and Liu Zhang led everyone into the city. Compared with Chang'an and Xiangyang, it is still far worse. However, compared to Hanzhong and Nanyang, it is not bad, the roads in the city have been almost built, and many trees have been planted according to Liu Zhang's requirements. There will be no sand and dust in windy weather, and Loulan in the Western Regions still exists in this era, a small country with many legends. If Loulan doesn't want to disappear, then he can only plant more trees, which Liu Zhang has already influenced the countries of the Western Regions little by little through businessmen. There are still some results, but most of them are fruit trees at present, but as Liu Zhang becomes stronger little by little, no one will question what Liu Zhang said at that time.
