Chapter 63 Railway Track Research, Wufang Rebellion
The Shu Kingdom has fallen, Meng Chang and other Shu royal families and Li Hao and other ministers of the dead country all passed through the Yangtze River waterway, went down the waterway, got off the boat in Jiangling Mansion, and then went to Kaifeng by land.
Lv Yuqing and other officials arrived in Shuzhong one after another, and began to take over the civil affairs of Chengdu and other states and counties in Shu, and the Shu army left some troops to garrison various parts of Shu, and the army of the Song State also began to control in batches, after the end of the Xichuan Road War, Wang Quanbin stepped down from the post of Marshal of Xichuan Road, temporarily recalled to the capital, and did not have much power to mobilize the Great Song army, which was also a worry that Zhao Kuangyin later worried about the excessive power of the generals, and set up an administrative method.
Zhao Dezhao secretly asked Bai Gucheng to unite various commercial forces and go to Shuzhong to help Shu recover its economy and recover Shu from the war.
The first reaction of the countries was to strengthen the garrison of the army on the border, and all ethnic groups in the northwest border did not dare to despise the nascent Great Song Dynasty.
The Tang State strengthened the protection on the waterway and sent sailors to patrol the river, while the Southern Han Dynasty believed that there were Nanling Mountains and had no fear, the Han lord still lived a drunken life, and Chen Hongjin of Quanzhou served the Great Song Dynasty, and the special city in his territory made this Thornton Port more and more prosperous.
Qian Yu of Wu Yue believed that Shu had violated the might of the Celestial Empire, and that the destruction of the country was self-inflicted.
In the city of Jinyang, since the Han Dynasty lost Liaozhou and lost its troops, Liu Jun held on to the incomplete, guarding his own one-third of an acre, ready to wait for the opportunity, and his own strength was insufficient, and once again delusionally wanted to unite with the Liao State to attack the Great Song Dynasty.
At this moment, in the territory of Liao, since the death of Yeluxian, those Khitan nobles in the court were not very obedient to Yelujing, if he did not govern the country by force and take repressive measures, these people would not obey, the people on the grassland are strong as kings, but they are still afraid of Yelujing in their hearts, although he does not look at the court, but his cruelty is unheard of, and he kills at every turn.
It's just that Yelu Xian is the second son of the former Liao lord, why did he die tragically, but the answer given by the Tai Hospital after that was: Ye Lu Xian was poisoned, and this poison slowly invaded the bone marrow of the human body, and once it was a long time, he would definitely die.
Except for Yelujing, who can poison Yeluxian quietly, and it was when Yelujing went out to travel for four seasons that such a major event happened in the capital, which clearly showed that he was not responsible for colluding with himself.
In addition, the disappearance of Han Derang and the disappearance of Han Derang's family also caused speculation, in their mansion, a letter from the Liao lord Yelujing to Han Kuangsi was found, and other gifts, if Han Kuangsi knew that his family had been wronged, they would be inexplicably excited.
Fortunately, after Han Kuangsi's family arrived in Youdu Mansion, they were taken by sea boat to Dengzhou Port.
Han Kuangsi didn't know that his family had arrived in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and later the black-clothed man told them that they had arrived in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and Han Derang did not die.
Han Derang didn't die, which made the Han family very happy, but then, the man in black didn't tell them the whole thing, and when they got to Kaifeng, someone would naturally tell them.
"Lord Han is the young master of my family, so he naturally doesn't dare to slack off."
In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, cement roads are being built one after another, from Kaifeng to Jiangling, Kaifeng to Yangzhou, Kaifeng to Dengzhou, Luoyang to Chang'an four lines are under construction, and the entire north is under intense construction for a time.
Han Kuangsi's family accidentally found that the Song people were working hard to build roads, but this kind of road was not the kind they saw, although only a section was built in Dengzhou, but in Han Kuangsi's eyes, this thing was indeed amazing.
"Lord Han, this is the cement gallop road, you can go up and try to take a walk."
Han Kuangsi stepped on this gallop road, it felt very flat, and there didn't seem to be that kind of dirt road feeling, a dark cyan gallop road, about five or six zhang wide, he squatted down, and then stroked this gallop with his hand, and then increased his strength and knocked on it hard.
"Oops-" Han Kuangsi cried out, "What is this?" Why is it so hard? ”
"This is the cement gallop invented by His Royal Highness King Wei, hillbilly, you haven't even seen this." A cement craftsman walked beside him, and he looked at Han Kuangsi with a puzzled expression.
Han Kuangsi felt that he was being labeled as ignorant, and he stroked his beard and smiled.
On the road, a large number of laborers began to be put into construction, and all localities followed the ecological protection and tried to build the cement road in a way that protected the surrounding ecological environment.
Han Kuangsi was happy and said, "It's time to go to Tokyo, the old man wants to see what Tokyo is like." ”
The men set off on their journey.

As soon as the spring equinox passed, all over Jianghuai, the land of Qilu in the north, and around Kaifeng, began to plant Champong rice on a large scale.
At this moment, the public transport system in Kaifeng City has been perfected, although it is all horsepower, mules or donkeys to do traction, but so far this is called good.
On the Jinming Pond outside the city, the lake was in turmoil, and all kinds of warships were practicing in the water, Yang Xin stood confidently training the sailors in the water, and a huge balloon was rising in the air.
That's right, this is a hot air balloon, a month ago, during the Battle of Shu, Zhao Dezhao made an earth-shattering item, driven by heat rise, and was jokingly called the large Kong Ming lantern.
Now it is used in war, it is not suitable to be public, and it is also Zhao Kuangyin's decree that it is not allowed to be used except for training, so as to prevent it from being detected by enemy spies.
Wu Desi has become a sharp weapon under Wang Renzhan, and he secretly helped the Great Song Emperor do a lot of things.
Ships from Liuzhou began to be active in the ports of Shanghai, Dengzhou, Yangzhou and other ports, and merchants from all over the world began to disembark at the wharves in various places to sell commercial goods, and their destination was in Kaifeng, a new imperial capital of the Song Dynasty.
Ships from the city came to Beijing to pay tribute to the Great Song Dynasty...... The liquor shops in the city, the Goolan tile shop... Rapid development......
Countless night markets are bustling, and Tokyo is in full bloom.
Under the authorization of the imperial court, the samurai car company united with other car companies to manufacture a large number of four-wheeled carriages, and the imperial court took a part of the income from them to ensure the operation of the economy of the Great Song Dynasty.
For a time, on the streets of Kaifeng, a large number of four-wheeled carriages began to gallop on the cement gallop.
When the cement road was built in Nanyang, some cement masons discovered the "railway" left over from the Qin Dynasty and immediately reported the matter to the above.
Zhao Dezhao later learned of this situation, and after he ordered someone to investigate, it was found that these were no different from modern railways, and they were still double lines. It's just that the car is not pulled by a steam locomotive, but by horsepower. Qin Shi Huang's "railway", the distance between the sleepers actually coincided with the steps of the horses. Once the horses are on the tracks, they can't help but run fast and can barely stop.
Due to the use of rails, the friction is greatly reduced, so the horse can also pull a lot of goods at once. This is an extremely efficient method that can travel up to 600 miles a day.
According to the Qin Dynasty, some things left behind that are similar to the railroad tracks of later generations, Zhao Dezhao ordered people to start studying this gallop road in the Qin Dynasty, and now there are not many metals in mining and circulation.
——
In the third year of Qiande (965), it is now March, although the courtiers of the Liao State have successively obtained the fact that the Southern Shu State was destroyed by the Song State, but the Liao State is currently in an eventful period, since the death of Yeluxian, there has been a rebellion in the north.
At the beginning of spring this year, Yelujing took the privy envoy Yarix as the commander of the march, and the Tiger Army as the commander of the march, and the Tiger Army was the commander of the march, and the army of Turub was 300, and the troops of the army were combined to fight against the Wuku Department. The rebellion of Uku is also, and Budazi is not a rebel, and the edict praises it. Before long, the Uku tribe killed its chieftain and surrendered; and rebellion. However, on the day of March Dingchou, Yin Niji, the chief of the Liao Tent Chieftain Murwei, openly rebelled against the Liao State.
At this time, Yelu Jing, who was hunting in Huaizhou, heard of the rebellion, and after he drank wine, he violently beat the eagle beside him, and punished him with cannon and iron comb. The Eagle Keeper didn't know why he had offended Yelu Jing, he was just a steward boy beside the Liao Lord who was in charge of eagles and other rare birds and beasts, but now he was tortured and tied to a red-hot pillar.
In a few moments, the life that was rushing around was gone. Yeluxian was very happy while drinking and watching the great punishment, at this time, Dong'er, who was close to him, looked at the scene in front of him, was stunned, his hands trembled, and the knives and chopsticks for the meal were slow.
Yelu Jing felt that the close attendant Dong'er next to him was a little slow, and seemed to be unhappy, he immediately pulled out a knife and slashed at Dong'er's neck, and immediately blood flowed all over the ground, splashing Yelu Jing's body, Yelu Jing was puzzled, and immediately made up a few knives towards the corpse, and the close attendant Dong'er lost his breath after a few movements, and there were several blood holes on his body.
In a short period of time, two lives were gone, and the drunk Yelu Jing laughed, completely ignoring the preciousness of life. The people around him were all frightened and didn't dare to speak.
Late at night, a dozen people quietly slipped out of the bowl and discussed on a hillside a few miles away from the bowl.
Yelujing hunts all year round, basically in the mountains of Black Mountain, Red Mountain, and Taibao Mountain in Huaizhou, and there are obvious signs set up here, which is to prohibit others from passing at will, and those who violate it will be executed.
These dozen or so people are all in charge of the five squares [carving workshop, harrier workshop, falcon workshop, eagle workshop, and dog workshop] by Yelu Jing's side [the staff of each workshop, and the people who give things in the Tang Dynasty are mostly called children], and today they see such a tragic side, and all the scenes of the past come to their minds.
The leader is a Han man, this person's name is Liu Tao, fourteen years old this year, since the ancestors were taken captive in the Later Jin Dynasty and the Khitan War, he has been a slave for generations, and now he has become a Wufang child, in charge of the birds and beasts around the Liao lord, and he has been beaten violently for no reason in the past.
He rolled up his sleeves, one by one, one by one, with scars that bulged like coils, telling the painful past. Thinking of the past, he became more and more indignant, he was not afraid of death, he was afraid of being tortured by Yelu Jing as a pig and dog, this is Yelu Jing's territory, he didn't dare to make a loud noise so he had to use Khitan language, and said in a low voice: "Everyone, now our lives are like mustard, trampled by others, I don't know that one day, if he is unhappy, our lives will be worried." It's not as good as ......."
Liu Tao said in the Khitan language in everyone's ears, the tragic experience in the depths of all the memories of these children was awakened, and they also faced the tragic death of their former relatives, living under the noses of the enemy, and being treated like pigs and dogs by the current Yelujing, these people were angry, and they swore a blood oath together today.
"Dong'er is dead, if Yelujing is alive one day, our lives will be like Dong'er, I don't know what Xiaocao'er and you plans to do?"
"Now that I have heard that the chief of Omurowei, Yinniji, is in rebellion, it is naturally impossible to rely on our strength, so it is better to take refuge in the Uku Department."
"That's a good idea."
"We have forty households in Wufang, and all of them will defect to the Uku Department when the time comes."
"It's just that Omuro is still a long way from here, and I don't know how we can get there."
"It would be nice if there was a map, I'm afraid it won't work tonight, and I'll go to the military tent tomorrow to look through it, if there is a map."
The next day, Liu Tao, a child from the carving workshop, began to pay attention to the map in the army, waiting for an opportunity to check where the map was.
On the day of March Guiwei, Liu Tao, a child in the carving workshop, got the map, and 40 households from Wufang rebelled into the Wuku Department.
In the military tent, Yelu Jing already knew about this matter, and he patted the big sheng wine jug and said, "Shameless boy, you actually took refuge in the Uku Department." ”
"Your Majesty, do you want to chase it."
"No, these people don't make the climate." When the Liao lord Yelu Jing learned of this, he immediately led an elite expedition to the Wuku Department
