The moon of this night is really big, the silver rays sprinkled all over the Handan will be silver white, at this time of Handan, usually at night, there is a curfew, there are soldiers patrolling all over the city, but Wang Li travels on the king frame, which is no problem, all the way to the unhindered.

Wang Li rode in this car, passed through one checkpoint after another, and became more and more familiar with this Handan City.

The city was really huge in ancient times, the population of the city was as Wu Shi had said before, there were 70,000 households in Handan City, 70,000 households, if a household was counted as four or five people, the population of the city was also three or four hundred thousand, and there were even more large households such as Wu Shi, and its family members were not less than 1,000, and the house slaves and guards were even farther away, plus the garrison army, the population was nearly 600,000.

During the Autumn and Warring States period, a city with a population of 500,000 or 600,000 was a great city, and it deserved to be the capital of a country. In the past, there was Yan Zi to make Chu, and the population of Linzi in Qi State, Zhang Yuan became yīn, sweated into rain, and followed each other.

The population of Handan in Zhao State is so large, but I don't know what kind of scene Linzi in Qi State is, Wang Li thought.

With such a large number of people living in a city, management is a problem, but the management of Handan is extremely orderly, and the interior of a huge city, except for the main streets and streets, are built with internal walls, which directly divide the entire city into major districts.

The patrol soldiers administer the city, each with its own division, and after dark, a curfew is observed, and sentry posts are set up at the main entrances of the streets and small streets, prohibiting all non-interested people from leaving their respective areas without permission, and some soldiers carry out patrols.

At such nights, as long as there is no chaos in the city, if anyone wants to make trouble in the city, I am afraid that they will soon be isolated in a district, and the entire Handan city patrol soldiers will surround them.

And in wartime, even if the enemy breaks through the city wall and enters the city, as long as the defenders are tenacious, the inner wall checkpoints of such divisions can be quickly repaired, and the cards can be set up, and the enemy will break through every street entrance, I am afraid that many lives will be filled.

And in the city, the nobles are strong and strong, and the roots are deeper, and there are usually small cities like the Wu family, each of which has private soldiers and warriors, and the combat power is extremely not weak, even stronger than ordinary soldiers, and there are a lot of integrations, if they resist wholeheartedly, Handan's resistance will increase.

With such a majestic city, it is no wonder that after the end of the Changping War for a year, after the Zhao State lost so many young people, King Zhaoxiang of Qin sent another 500,000 troops to besiege Handan for a year and failed to take it.

There is Zhao Handan like this, other countries can be seen, the later Qin State swept all the countries, for Handan such a big city often have a headache, a country has limited troops, the siege of the city is purely flesh and blood consumption, so often other strategies are adopted, the beam of the Wei State, is the Yellow River flooding to break the city.

The ancients said that the siege of the city was the bottom, and Wang Li thought it was true.

Under the escort of the imperial guards of King Zhao, the king drove the carriage all the way through the streets and small streets, went straight to the south, passed the densely populated urban area, and gradually walked in the south of the city, and could see a large field again, among the fields, there were manors, and the granaries guarded by heavy soldiers could still be vaguely seen.

"Sir, this is the manor given to you by the king, surrounded by thousands of acres of pastoral water, hundreds of slaves, all of which are attached to the manor."

The carriage stopped in front of a manor, and Wang Li looked at it, only to see that this manor was much larger than the other manors in the surrounding area, although it was not like the Wujia Castle, but it also had thick high walls, and the whole was made of large stones mixed with glutinous rice juice.

Behind the high wall, at intervals, there are watchtowers more than two meters above the high wall, and if it is wartime, the guards can stand on the watchtower in large numbers and strike with bows and crossbows.

It's just that at this time, five or six years have passed since the battle of Qinwei Handan, and this manor doesn't seem to have an owner, but King Zhao sent someone to take care of it here, who dares to disobey the king in Handan City? Therefore, there are no personnel on duty on the watchtower, and many watchtowers look dilapidated, and some are in disrepair.

Zhao Ding and Wang Li were talking, and the imperial guards went to knock on the door, and Zhao Ding continued to introduce the origin of this manor to Wang Li.

It turned out that this manor was also extraordinary, it was originally the mansion of Ma Fujun Zhao Hao, and was later inherited by his son Zhao Kuo, but later Zhao Kuo and Qin State Wu Anjun Bai fought in Changping, lost the first battle, and the Qin army killed Zhao 400,000.

Before this battle, the national strength of Zhao was steaming, comparable to that of strong Qin, and gradually had the tendency to compete with Qin for hegemony, and after the Changping War, Zhao turned from prosperity to decline. Zhao Kuo's battle was simply ruining the fortunes of Zhao Guo, and his crime was the greatest.

Before the war, Zhao Kuo's mother knew Zhao Kuo's ability, and once said in the preface of King Zhao that Zhao Kuo could not make Zhao Kuo a general, and Qi Zhao Wang's son was defeated and not affected by Zhulian, and Zhao Kuo's wife was Wang Mei.

Knowing the story of this mansion, Wang Li suddenly had a sense of integrating into history, whether it was Zhao Hao and Zhao Kuo, they were all big celebrities who were passed down to future generations, and the idiom of talking about soldiers on paper was created by Zhao Kuo.

King Zhao's carriage arrived, and there was no problem with the handover of the manor, the gate opened, and Wang Li also got down from the carriage and entered the manor with Zhao Ding.

As soon as you enter the manor, there is a wall behind the gate, Wang Li is familiar with history, and knows that this wall is called Zhaobi, and Lu Guo left a disaster to cause Xiao Wall, Xiao Wall is this kind of Zhaobi.

Bypassing the Xiao Wall, the mansion of Ma Fujun Zhao Hao was all in front of Wang Li's eyes.

I saw that the building of this manor is very similar to the Wujia Castle, behind the Xiao Wall, is a large square, on the square all kinds of martial arts facilities are displayed, and there are arrow targets, but they have been abandoned for a long time, and the left and right courtyard walls are surrounded by a piece of houses, which are the residences of slaves and guards.

Along the avenue, in the center of the quadrangular courtyard wall is the residence of the owner and important members of the family, and behind this residence is the backyard. The owner of this manor, whether it is Zhao Hao or his son Zhao Kuo, is a military general, so the military atmosphere of the whole manor is extremely strong.

"Sir, Zhao Guang, the housekeeper of the manor, everything in the manor here is managed by him, and all matters in the manor, Mr. can ask him."

Zhao Guang looks like an old man in his fifties, his hair is all white, and his body has shrunk a little, but his small eyes are shining, and at a glance he knows that he is a jīng Mingren.

"Zhao Guang, call all the adult house slaves in the manor, both men and women, to this square, I have something to announce." Wang Li said directly to Zhao Guang: "In addition, you go and show me the income and expenditure accounts of the manor, I need to check it." ”

"Yes, do as your master commands." Zhao Guang saluted Wang Li, and then directly said to a person beside him, and suddenly several people rushed everywhere, causing a lot of chickens and dogs.

Zhao Guang saw Wang Li's instructions, but secretly praised in his heart, this Mr. Wang, just came and grasped this manor in the palm of his hand.

"Sir, I still need to return to the king, so I won't accompany him much, the king has promised a battalion of soldiers, I have ordered people to arrange, all of them are the most loyal people of my Zhao, early in the morning, Zhao Ding led the army to report with Mr. That kind of thing, you still need to ask Mr. to pay attention to it and implement it as soon as possible. ”

Hearing Zhao Ding say this, Wang said, no wonder he came all the way, this Zhao Ding was in a good mood, it turned out that there was such a good thing, from a big king guard, to a battalion general.

"Then congratulations to the general, about the seed, the general please reply to the king on my behalf, I will open two acres of land in the manor, the general has leisure, you can also rìrì to check, in addition, Wang Li has another matter, please report to the king."
