Five-seven-two: Cut the land! Reparations! Ministers!
(Eight thousand words, haha, isn't it cool?) οΌ
"So, Wu Yibo, give me a word of advice" Nalan Ruojiang paused and continued: "You are actually in danger now, and it is the wisest decision to retreat!" β
Nalan Ruojiang's words, to put it bluntly, are two dogs grabbing a bone, and a dog has already eaten seven points full, and the competition is not so strong, and because of this, the dog that has not eaten is very jealous of his companion, and secretly does not know what bad intentions he is making, maybe he is slaughtering his companion and gouging out the undigested bones from his stomach to swallow it himself. And now the bone in front of you is very hard, any dog comes up to bite, will cluck the teeth so that the next can not cope with the attack of the companion, and if you come up to bite together, you have to prevent the other party from taking the opportunity to bite yourself.
After listening to this, Lian Zining couldn't help but admire Wan Yan Yeping's military wisdom.
Wanyan Yeping's inference, from a military point of view, is no problem, it can be said to be to the point, in a word, it clearly shows the embarrassing situation that Lian Zining is in now. It can also be seen from this that Wanyan Yeping is a natural handsome talent, and it seems that she has a keen instinctive insight into the changes in the battlefield and the judgment of the situation, so that every step she takes is critical and correct.
A thought suddenly flashed in Lian Zining's heart at this time: "This person must not be kept, if he can't be used for himself, he must be killed!" β
But he turned to laugh: "Lian Zining, when did you become so unconfident?" Wanyan Yeping is amazing. But it's just that she fights a lot of war, she doesn't know how to govern the country, and she doesn't understand politics, and now that the Jurchen is declining to this point, what kind of storm can she stir up alone? Now is not the time to think about that, the big picture matters! β
However, what Yan Yeping made Lian Zining jealous of was only military wisdom. From what I just said. Lian Zining can analyze that even if Yan Yeping's military command is not zero, it is definitely not high.
Lian Zining glanced at Nalan Ruojiang. After a little thought, I knew that the other side must be bluffing, and if all military matters were to be viewed from a military point of view, all problems could be solved. Isn't that necessarily too simple to draw conclusions? What else is politics to do?
Most of the time, the military is subordinated to politics. Some battles that we know we can't win have to be fought, and we have to withdraw when we know they want to win!
It's called the big picture.
And it is precisely that Lian Zining thinks about problems, and he has always considered it from the political aspect.
Wanyan Yeping must be unable to hold it now, and Lian Zining will not retreat or not.
In fact, Lian Zining did have the idea of retiring from the army, but the reason why he wanted to retreat. But it's not what Yan Yeping said. Wanyan Yeping said two points correctly - first, the benefits that Lian Zining swallowed were already enough, enough for him to digest for a while, if he swallowed the Jurchen Khan Court and a large area of territory nearby at this time, he was afraid that it would be harmful and useless. If you can't swallow and digest it, it will hurt your stomach and intestines, and this kind of internal injury is even more ruthless and deadly!
Second, Lian Zining is also afraid of losing his strength. Wu Yijun spent a month and a half from Songhua Riverside to Hate Gu Hepan. After running for more than 2,000 miles, although the morale of the soldiers was high, they had actually become tired divisions. And this place is so far away from Baiying Gorge, and even farther away from Zhenyuan Mansion, the long-distance transportation of grain has already become a huge pressure on the Zhenyuan Mansion side - not to mention, at this time, the logistics line of the Wu Yi Army is not only this one, but also supplies the ten new guards stationed in Jiangbei and hundreds of thousands of refugees?
But these are only two secondary aspects, what really made Lian Zining decide to withdraw his troops was not these details, but the general trend - in terms of power, Lian Zining is certainly more than the Russian army in this time period in this area, but don't forget, there is a huge empire behind the Russian army, and Lian Zining now doesn't even dare to let the imperial court know the details of Wu Yi's army, how to support? β¦,
The Russians have the support of a huge empire, rich Siberia, an unquenchable fire of aggression and incredible wolf ambitions, and in this southern expedition, it can be said that they did not get any benefits except for the loss of troops, and the benefits were all for Lian Zining.
If Lian Zining had such a situation, he would definitely be depressed plus resentful and planning greedy plunder.
Therefore, it is also conceivable that once the Jurchens are destroyed, the Wuyi Army, whose territory directly borders the Russians, will inevitably be attacked by the Russians in the next step!
There is no doubt about it!
Replaced Lian Zining, and he did the same.
If Lian Zining had killed the Jurchens at this time, he would have really become a dog whose fighting power had dropped by five or six percent because of his greedy bones and broken teeth, and at the same time, he had indigestion and abdominal pain and it was difficult to concentrate, and what was even worse was that the other dog was crazy with hunger and was frantically attacking himself - it was not good!
And what if it is immortal Jurchen?
The Jurchens, in the southwest of the Hagu River, have become a barrier, a buffer zone, between Russians and themselves. After just going through such a catastrophe that is almost similar to a catastrophe, the first thing the Jurchens do must be to recuperate, even if they are unconvinced and have monstrous hatred, then they have to wait until they are fattened and have the strength to come again! In this way, Lian Zining was given a buffer time to digest the newly occupied area and completely incorporate it into his rule, and by the time the Jurchens finished recuperating, and even before they finished, Lian Zining's strength had already reached a new level!
Although Lian Zining swept away the Haixi Jurchens, don't forget that it was the Jianzhou Jurchens who dominated the entire Jin State - now only the Jianzhou Jurchens were left in charge - and the damage and suffering suffered by the Jianzhou Jurchens on the Russians was definitely more than their own, because they hated the Russians even more. Although the strength of the Jurchens has been greatly damaged, there are still a few cities, more than 100 tribes, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers, which are not easy to mess with, and if the Russians want to attack them, they must solve the Jurchens. As you can imagine, it's like treating cervical spondylosis. It's a long and painful process.
As for the benefits, it is even more meaningless - swallowing a bone leads to indigestion, abdominal cramping, ruptured stomach pouch, bleeding from the large intestine, chrysanthemum blooming...... Or gnaw this bone carefully, chew it slowly, and swallow it little by little without hurrying, which is wiser at a glance.
It can be said that Lian Zining is now even if he retreats and leaves it alone. It is an excellent choice, and the benefits are enough to be used for a while. However, is Lian Zining the kind of person who has a advantage and does not take advantage?
Although there is already a retreat. But even if you retreat, you can't let people see your intentions, and you have to beg to retreat. Take this to knock on the stroke!
This is Lian Zining's style.
Lian Zining shook his head: "The benefits, no one is too much." If you don't withdraw your troops and attack you with the Russians, then you will destroy the Jurchens, expand the land for thousands of miles, and gain hundreds of thousands of people, such a great benefit will not make me give up because of your words. As for what you said about the fact that we and the Russians cannot join hands, this is not necessarily true. Look at this. β
Lian Zining stretched out his hand and handed the few pages of paper on the table to Nalan Ruojiang.
On this, what is written is the battle plan drawn up by the Wu Yi Army and the Russians.
Nalan Ruojiang glanced at Lian Zining with a shout, shook off the two pieces of paper and looked at them carefully, the more he looked down, the more dignified his face became. She is also a soldier who knows the soldiers. At that moment, he secretly calculated in his heart, and he was shocked to find that if it was like this, the Jurchen army was afraid that seventy percent of them might be defeated, and two percent of them would be wiped out! β¦,
After she read it once. Peeked at Lian Zining, and saw that he didn't pay attention, so he looked at it from the beginning again, and saw it in great detail, and it took him enough time to look at a cup of tea, almost three or five times.
Lian Zining didn't stop it, just watched.
When Nalan Ruojiang put it down, Lian Zining smiled and asked, "Can you remember everything?" β
"Remember!" Nalan Ruojiang hadn't woken up yet, so he replied by the way, as soon as the words came out, he knew that something was wrong, and when he touched Lian Zining's smiling and hateful face, he didn't take a breath, and he almost fainted in anger.
She took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and asked, "Why are you showing me this?" β
"What if you knew? That's all I can do? Lian Zining laughed, unimpressed.
The subtext is, of course, if I want to beat you, I can defeat it, even if you watch it?
"You!" Nalan Ruojiang's pretty face turned red, and before she could refute, Lian Zining smiled slightly and said, "Don't talk first, let me ask you, is there not enough food in your camp?" β
"Nonsense!" Nalan Ruojiang said disdainfully: "We can't eat enough grain and livestock. β
Although she had a hard mouth, Lian Zining kept staring at her, and she could still see some clues on her face, so she knew that she must be lying.
Lian Zining didn't reveal it, but continued to ask with a smile: "The reason why you came today must be because you just received a letter from the Khan court asking Wan Yan Yeping to take full charge of the affairs here, right?" β
"How did he know?" Nalan Jiancheng was shocked, although his face did not change, but looking at the man in front of him who was smiling gently, there was a feeling in his heart that 'he is a demon who can see through people's hearts'.
Wan Yan Yeping did only receive the letter from her yesterday that she had full authority to deal with, otherwise she would not have acted without permission.
She argued: "What are you saying, why can't I understand it?" β
Before she finished speaking, Lian Zining had already glanced at her with that kind of 'you really can't lie' look, and continued: "In the past few days, presumably in the Jurchen camp, morale is low, and the soldiers have no intention of fighting, Wanyan Yeping is very anxious, right?" β
Nalan Ruojiang was speechless, she felt that it would be too embarrassing to lie any longer.
Next, Lian Zining asked a few more questions, all of which were to the point, and they were all big problems faced by the Jurchens now.
Nalan Ruojiang simply didn't speak, she sat on the Jindun, like a gourd with a sullen mouth, no matter what Lian Zining asked, she didn't speak.
-- This is actually the best way to face this situation, if you don't open your mouth, you will talk less, and if you talk less, you can leak some less details, guess what you want, anyway, I don't admit it! Under the situation that Lian Zining can create step by step, ordinary people are already flustered, and there are not many people who can think of this in such a situation, which shows that Nalan Ruojiang is still very smart.
"Look at it, you said that my Wu Yijun was too weak. And to put yourselves, it is too strong. Lian Zining saw that Nalan Ruojiang had nothing to say, knowing that she seemed calm at this time, but in fact, her psychological defense line had collapsed, and everything they relied on was refuted by herself one by one, which could be said to be convinced.
Then he also tried to see the poor dagger: "About the matter of retiring from the army." It's not that you can't talk about it, but you have to recognize the situation of both sides, the advantages and disadvantages. You have to show sincerity, this official is conditional! β
Nalan Ruojiang, who had almost been said by Lian Zining, was embarrassed and desperate, like grasping a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said: "What conditions." β
"You've finally opened your mouth." Lian Zining still has the leisure to make a joke. After a while, he said: "The first condition of this official is the territory. β
Lian Zining walked to the huge map hanging on the wooden wall, stretched out his hand and pointed at the point in the south of Youman's Henan, about one hundred and fifty miles south of the Jurchen Khan's court, and then drew a straight line about thirty degrees to the northeast, this straight line is extremely long, I am afraid that it must be more than 2,000 miles, and the end extends to the seaside. To the south of this straight line, the entire Songhua River basin. Including the estuary of the Songhua River, the former Nuer Gandu Division's seat of Terlin, and even the Kuyi Island. It's all included. β¦,
To the south of the North Mountain, to the east of the Mongolian tribes, to the north of Liaodong, and to the west of the Whale Sea, the length of this north-south area is more than 2,800 li. In addition, the east-west width of Kuyi Island has reached more than 3,000 miles, and the vast northeast region in the traditional sense is divided into two halves by this line, with seventy percent in the south and only thirty percent in the north!
Lian Zining smiled slightly: "All areas south of this line. I want it! β
Nalan Ruojiang glanced at him, unexpectedly, but he did not express strong opposition, Lian Zining's words were very ingenious, and the boundary of the division was also very coincidental, in the area south of that straight line, it was roughly the area occupied by the Wu Yi Army now, or the three parties did not occupy it, but there were some scattered tribes, which was very wild.
Wanyan Yeping also understands that since these realms have been occupied by Wu Yijun, it is impossible to spit them out again, anyway, they are already other people's territories, so let him continue to occupy them! The situation is stronger than people, and this is also a helpless thing.
As for the reality that the Jurchen territory was cut off by Lian Zining - the entire Haixi Jurchen Department and most of the Jianzhou Jurchen Department - this reality, then it can only be accepted, and it is inferior to others, so what can be done about it? Fortunately, the area near the Khan's court is still north of that straight line, and it is also the most densely populated and fertile area of the Jurchen tribes in the entire Jianzhou, which is roughly equivalent to the significance of the Guanzhong region before the Song Dynasty to the Central Plains Dynasty.
This is also what Lian Zining did deliberately, if the population is cut off and the land is cut away, and the Jurchen power is extremely exhausted, who will resist the Russians for him? A long stream of water is the best policy, but blind bursting and greed are not advisable.
Nalan Ruojiang did not object or agree, but was silent.
Lian Zining continued: "Article 2. but money. β
"From today onwards, every month you Jurchen will pay 30,000 taels of silver and 10,000 taels of gold to my Wu Yijun! 1,000 good horses, a high-quality pearl! Lian Zining said widely.
This condition is very harsh, one month of these, is equivalent to a Chinese New Year's Eve 60,000 taels of silver, 120,000 taels of gold, 12,000 horses, 12 Hu pearls! You must know that the Song Dynasty, which had the most prosperous economy among the dynasties of the Central Plains but had the softest waist, successively paid tribute to Liao, Xixia, Jin, Mongolia and other countries, and it was simply not up to this number.
Nalan Ruojiang's face turned pale, trembling all over, and said angrily: "Uncle Wu Yi, you are too greedy, tell you, this is impossible!" We Jurchens don't have that much money at all! β
"Impossible?" was accused like this by Nalan Ruojiang, but Lian Zining was not angry, his face was already smiling, calm, gentle, and said with a smile: "It's okay, these things are negotiable, don't agree, right?" Then there is always an agreement, there is always a clause of agreement, right? Let's seek common ground while reserving differences, starting with the terms that we all agree on, and talk about them one by one. β
Even Zining said so, Nalan Ruojiang's anger was naturally half gone, but he said coldly: "I don't talk to you, I can't be the master, I have to go back to ask Her Royal Highness the princess." β
"That's nature." Lian Zining said with a smile.
"Article 3."
Lian Zining put away the smile on his face and said solemnly: "It's also something you must promise." β
"Jin Guo, you must pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty!"
This one is also the one that Lian Zining attaches great importance to. Emperor Zhengde hated the Jin country, and he was such a very good-looking person, the favorite is the scene of all the countries coming to the court, the Jin country is a minister, it will definitely make the Zhengde Emperor Longyan happy, and when the time comes, he will be happy, his own benefits. Isn't it rolling in? Some requirements that have been planned for a long time can also be put forward.
This is a long-term solution. β¦,
Nalan Ruojiang was silent, waiting for Lian Zining to say the detailed terms below.
After a cup of tea time. Nalan Ruojiang looked at Lian Zining's eyes very strangely, as if he wanted to take out his heart to see if it was dark. She never knew that a person could be transformed so quickly. This man seems to have suddenly changed from a gentle and modest gentleman to a sharp-tongued, spicy and ruthless columnist, and then he has become a businessman who must compete with each other.
After another cup of tea, Nalan Ruojiang left the camp of the Wu Yi Army.
After a while, Nona also woke up, and she wore a large fur coat that reached to the top of her feet, and wrapped her whole body in it. Rubbing his eyes, he walked out, and he was cute.
She walked behind Lian Zining, gently rubbed her temples for him, and whispered, "My lord, what you said." I've also heard some, can they agree to such harsh conditions? β
"Yes, of course, you can't say yes to all." Lian Zining said leisurely: "However, I don't care if they want these, it's not much." It's just stuck in their hearts. Don't look at the Jurchens now as if they are at the end of their rope, in fact, they have a thick family background! β
Nona listened and nodded as if she didn't understand.
After Nalan Ruojiang returned to the Jurchen camp, he was immediately recruited into the big tent by Wanyan Yeping, and the two talked secretly for a full morning.
All this, in the entire Jurchen camp, only the two of them and a few henchmen of the tiger and leopard cavalry kneades, this is also to prevent spies in the camp from leaking this matter to the Russians over there.
On the second day, Nalan Ruojiang came again.
Day 3.
Day 4.
Nalan Ruojiang acted as a microphone-like figure, going back and forth between the Jurchen camp and the Wuyi army camp, bringing the meaning of Lian Zining and Wanyan Yeping to each other.
It wasn't until the fifth day that after repeated discussions, compromises, and concessions, Lian Zining finally agreed to the opinions put forward by Yan Yeping, and the two sides reached an agreement.
The first article proposed by Lian Zining has been completely retained.
The second is to cut the amount of silver to 20,000 taels per month, the amount of gold to 8,000 taels, the amount of war horses unchanged, and the amount of Dongzhu unchanged.
Article 3, roughly retained, but some modifications, the Jin State is called a minister, but the country name is not abolished, the year name is not abolished, the Great Khan is not abolished, only called a minister, not a tribute, which means that it is not as servile as the current Goguryeo, and the relationship with the Ming Dynasty is more similar to the relationship between the two Mongolian departments and the Ming Dynasty in the early years of the dynasty.
Lian Zining is also indispensable to this, anyway, the Ming Dynasty has always valued a face, as long as the face is passable and the face is bright, nothing else matters.
When Nalan Ruojiang came back from the camp of the Wuyi Army, it was already full of stars and moons, if it was placed in the past, countless torches had already been lit in the camp at this time, and the lights in the camp were bright, but now, there were only some torches and braziers lit in the critical position, and the flames struggled weakly in the wind, exuding limited light.
As Lian Zining said, the materials of the Jurchen camp are already very scarce, and they are even more scarce than he thought, almost to the point of being overstretched, food, medicine, and even the wood, fire oil, animal oil, rotten cloth and other things necessary to light torches, they can no longer keep up, otherwise they would not be so frugal.
However, there were fewer brazier torches, but there was no shortage of guards against enemy night attacks, so there were more soldiers patrolling around. Nalan Ruojiang was originally in charge of the defense of the big battalion, but she had been busy running between the two big camps for the past two days, and she was tired enough, so she didn't care about it, but she didn't expect to encounter several waves of soldiers, all of whom were listless, and it seemed as if she was coping with it. β¦,
How could Nalan Ruojiang see this?
The little girl who was red-eared and bare-headed in front of Lian Zining changed her face at the moment, and reprimanded the patrolling soldiers fiercely, she has a high prestige, and she is the supervisor in this regard, and she is still very deterrent in the hearts of the soldiers.
However, after being reprimanded, Nalan Ruojiang only felt uneasy. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers were pardoned, and after kowtowing a few times, they ran away as if they were fleeing for their lives. Nalan Ruojiang sighed, walked back with heavy steps, and negotiated the conditions with that hateful Lian Zining, Nalan Ruojiang originally came back in a hurry. Where can I be happy at this time?
The biggest problem in the Jurchen camp today is not the shortage of materials, but the hearts of the people! Alone, everyone is worried about their hometown. Worried about home, unintentionally in love with war, how much can be left of this combat effectiveness and morale. It's really debatable.
Fortunately, His Royal Highness was wise, saw the problem early, and negotiated peace with Wu Yijun, otherwise, I am afraid that it would collapse before the battle.
After passing the checkpoint, I entered the camp, and when I arrived outside the big tent, I saw fifty elite guards like black iron towers standing on both sides of the big tent door, all of them with straight chests and stomachs, and straight waists. It doesn't move like a stake. When Nalan Ruojiang approached, Meng Gu, the chief of the guard standing at the front, said in a low voice: "Your Highness is in a bad mood, Ruojiang, take it easy." β
Meng Gu is also Wanyan Yeping's guard, and his relationship with Nalan Ruojiang has always been excellent.
Nalan Ruojiang nodded. I took a breath and entered the big tent, and when I entered, I was stunned, and it turned out that there was no one in the tent.
"Your Highness?" She tried to say hello.
"Ruojiang?" Wan Yan Yeping's tired and hoarse voice came from inside: "Come here!" β
"Yes, Your Highness." Nalan Ruojiang entered the back hall, which was the resting place of Wanyan Yeping. The layout is very simple, just a bed and a few.
Nalan Ruojiang was stunned again, it turned out that there was a small blanket on the ground, Wanyan Yeping was kneeling on the ground upright, and an incense burner was placed in front of him, and three incense sticks were curling in it.
"Agreed?" Wan Yan Yeping didn't reply.
"It's settled. He agreed, and promised to send a note to the Russians within three days. Nalan Ruojiang lowered his voice and said.
"Hmm! It's ...... been negotiated" Yan Yeping let out a long sigh, there was no joy, only a deep sadness.
She looked at the incense burner in front of her in a daze, and suddenly tears fell down with tears in her eyes, and then, this invincible Jurchen princess on the battlefield, the general of the expedition to the north, actually knelt on the ground and cried.
She cried so sadly, as if she wanted to release all the resentment, dissatisfaction, grievances, and huge pressure she had been under these days.
At this time, Nalan Ruojiang suddenly discovered that the direction in which His Royal Highness was kneeling was the Khan Court!
Her eyes were also stunned, and a thought popped up in each other's hearts, it's over, and there is no need to talk about it in the future, so you won't see each other, right? In this life, you will never see each other again, right?
Look blank.
Her eyes were sour, and a few tears slipped quietly.
ββββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββββ
Liyue, Yanshan Dynasty Palace.
Liyue, divided into two mountains, north and south.
Beishan is also known as Banzai Mountain, Banzai Mountain, and is naturally the place where Banzai is qualified to live and stay. The Great Hall of Yanshan is located on the highest mountain peak of Long Live Mountain!
In the thirty-fourth year of Zhengde, when Zhengde built this great palace, the idea in his heart was quite jaw-dropping, and he personally said to the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Pan Jitao that he wanted to build the largest palace in ancient times! β¦,
It's actually quite difficult.
China has been brilliant for 5,000 years, and all kinds of giant palaces have emerged in endlessly, although because the palaces in China are basically civil structures, and the rebel armies of all walks of life in Chinese history have the habit of killing people and setting fires, when they reach a territory and occupy the most huge and gorgeous place, the first thought that arises in their minds is to burn - Xiang Yu burned Afang Palace, as the so-called 'Chu people burn a torch, poor scorched earth', Xianyang Palace, Afang Palace, one did not run; Huang Chao turned Chang'an into ashes with a fire,
It's also strange to say, you have the ambition to be an emperor, but why don't you have the temperament to be an emperor? When you become the emperor, you are going to build a palace anyway, why do you want to burn this and change the place to build a palace, in vain to consume the people's power, work the people and lose money, and also leave a bad reputation among the people, it is inevitable to leave a mark in the history books of 'a certain year and a certain month, a certain city was burned'.
Therefore, most of these palaces that shine in history and leave a great reputation have not been preserved, and they cannot be seen by future generations, but their records are seen in the annals of history, and future generations can also recall them.
These are all recorded in the history books. Of course, Zhengde can't turn a blind eye to these, otherwise, what he said is just a joke, and he will be laughed at by the government and the opposition.
The majestic palace of the huge Chinese history is innumerable, the deer platform of the king of Shang, three hundred zhang high, three miles in a radius, paved with cobblestones, the whole is built with a huge stone, the beast is poured with bronze on it, the giant pillars are all made of copper as the main body, the outside is gilded, the gate is carved out of white marble, the threshold is white jade, there are countless treasures hidden in it, every day with Daji wine pond meat forest, absurdity.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's Shanglin Yuan, across Chang'an, Xianyang, Zhouzhi, Huxian, Lantian five counties and counties, a radius of 300 miles, there are Ba, Chan, Jing, Wei, Feng, Pickaxe, Prison, Orange eight water in and out of it. Raise hundreds of beasts in the garden, and the Son of Heaven shoots and hunts in the garden in the spring and autumn, and takes countless beasts. Among them, there are 70 palaces, allowing thousands of rides...... Among them, there are 36 gardens, 12 palaces, and 35 views.
There are countless ponds and marshes, and there are Kunming Pond, Pickaxe Pond, Ritual Pond, Elk Pond, Niushou Pond, Kuai Pond, Jicao Pond, Dongpi Pond, Danglu Pond, Dayi Pond, Lang Pond and so on. Among them, Kunming Pond is dug by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the fourth year of Yuanjia, in the southwest of Chang'an, the circumference is forty miles, and it is a little smaller than the entire Chang'an City. Kunming Pond is surrounded by a view of the ring, is used to train the navy, so build a building ship more than ten zhang high, put a flag on it, spectacular very. There are Yuzhangtai and stone whales in the pool, and the carved stone is a whale, which is three zhang long. There is a dragon's head boat in the pool, often order the palace maid to sail in the pool, Zhang Fenggai, Jianhua flag, make a song, mixed with advocacy. On the east and west banks of the pool, stand the stone statues of morning glory and weaver girl. At the time of the initial cultivation of Shanglin Garden, the ministers also donated more than 2,000 kinds of famous fruit trees from afar.
Shanglin Garden starts from Dinghu Palace in the east, passes through Chang'an Yichun Palace and Yusu Palace in the west, and goes west to Wuqi Palace along the north foot of Zhongnan Mountain, which is more than 200 miles long from east to west; From Wuqi Palace in the south, to Huangshan Palace on the north bank of the Wei River in the north, more than 60 miles from north to south; Chang'an City is also included, with a total area of about 2,500 square kilometers, and after subtracting the area of Han Chang'an City of 40 square kilometers, the actual area of Shanglin Yuan is about 2,460 square kilometers.
What is this concept? The whole of Hong Kong is divided into three parts, Hong Kong Island is about 78 square kilometers, Kowloon Peninsula is about 50 square kilometers, and the New Territories and 262 outlying islands are about 968 square kilometers, with a total area of about 1,095 square kilometers. It adds up to only half of Shanglin Yuan.
How can anyone surpass such a grand scale? (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
