Chapter 718 Northeast Spring City Tea Ah Chong
Just when Tai Shi Ci gathered to discuss the matter. In the territory of Fuyu Kingdom, which is thousands of miles away from Quanzhou Water Master City, in a city that is expanding, Zhang Xiu is also discussing the military situation with his generals.
The city under construction where the Blue Wolf Army is stationed is called "Tea Ah Chong" by the local people, which is an ancient Sushen language, which was originally a prayer for the ancient Sushen aborigines who lived on this land when they sacrificed to the sky. Cha Ah Chong was founded in 2130 BC (25 years of Emperor Shun) and was the second royal capital of the early Sushen Kingdom. At that time, it was the main gathering place of the southern branch of Sushen (Manchu ancestors), called "Xi", and the second royal family of Sushen built adobe walls and palaces here, called Xidu. At this time, there were about 1,000 households, which is the earliest classical history of Changchun, so "Xi" should also be the abbreviation of Changchun.
About 1800 B.C., the Hui (Filthy) and Mo (θ²) tribes of the southern branch of Sushen gradually migrated to Xidu and merged into the Hui Mo (Filthy) tribe (the predecessor of the Manchu people), in order to commemorate the integration of the two major tribes into the Sushen Kingdom, the King of Sushen then changed the name of the country to Dehui (Dezhen), and changed the "Xidu" to "Helong (Helong) City". In the Western Han Dynasty, the Buyeo Kingdom was established, and gradually cultural exchanges with the Eastern Han Dynasty in the Central Plains.
The soldiers of the Blue Wolf Army who came here, although they did not understand the meaning of "Cha A Chong" in the Su Shen language, they affectionately called this city "Changchun" according to the four seasons here, the same season of rain and heat, the moderate dry and wet climate characteristics, combined with the pronunciation of the Fuyu people, and on the latest version of the military map published by the Crouching Tiger Equipment Institute of the Jin Kingdom, they solemnly plotted "Changchun" on the map, and also drew the mark of the big city.
The original "Cha Ah Chong" was nothing more than a small town that could only accommodate 10,000 people, but suddenly an army of 30,000 people rushed over, and it suddenly seemed crowded and difficult to deal with. Li Hui discussed with Zhang Xiu, planning to emulate the spirit of Lord Taifu in rebuilding a new city in Dunhuang, and turn the small "Cha A Chong" into a large city that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the future.
Zhang Xiu and Li Hui met with the lord of the Fuyu Kingdom, Su Ken, and revealed the intention of the Blue Wolf Army to expand Cha Ah Chong, and were warmly welcomed by Su Ken.
Su Ken said with some embarrassment: "Please forgive me, the two adults, our husband and the rest of the country are weak, and the common people can only be hungry, if you build a big city, you can only contribute manpower, but you can't contribute financial resources." β
Li Hui said: "The lord of the country does not need to worry, we will imitate the structural layout of Crouching Tiger City, the first male city of the Jin Kingdom, and build a comprehensive city in Cha Ah Chong within three years." As for the funds needed to build the city, the blue wolf army will bear it alone, and the labor required will be provided by the husband and the rest of the country, and the wages will be paid by us. However, there are two requirements for us to build a big city with such money and effort. β
Su Ken said: "The people of Fuyu will definitely be grateful for the kindness and generosity of the two adults, and if the adults have any requests, please ask." β
Li Hui then said: "The first requirement is that in the future, Fuyu City will be the location of the Blue Wolf Army, and the people of Fuyu can live in the city, but the jurisdiction of the city will be owned by the Blue Wolf Army; β
After thinking about it, the lord finally agreed to Li Hui's conditions. In his opinion, it is not too much for people to spend money and effort to build a city here, and only ask for jurisdiction and garrison rights. Fuyu Kingdom has now become a vassal of the Jin State, even if the Blue Wolf Army garrisons troops in the whole territory of Fuyu, it is estimated that the people will not object.
Unexpectedly, because of the arrival of the Blue Wolf Army, the Chinese place name for this city was very consistent with that of the city, and even Zhao Xing felt very satisfied after reading it.
Two hundred miles away in the southwest of Changchun, there is the big Liao water that meanders and flows in the shape of "several". The upper reaches of Da Liao Water are also called Rao Le Shui, which is a "δΈΏ" of the word "several". On the north bank of Raoleshui, there are tens of thousands of Xianbei people in Liaodong, and on the south bank, that is, the part where the combination of "δΈΏ" and "one" in the shape of "several" is the old nest of the Karasuma people; the lower reaches of the Great Liaoshui cross Liaodong County and directly enter the Bohai Sea, and along its coast are important cities such as Pingping, Liaoyang, and Fangxian, all of which are now in the hands of Gongsun Du.
If Zhang Xiu led the army from Changchun City, he could reach the middle section of the Great Liaoshui in three days, that is, the middle of the horizontal position of the "several" shape. From here, you can cross the water to attack Xianbei and Karasuma in Liaodong, go down the river to attack Gongsundu, and if you go east, you can enter the territory controlled by the Goguryeos. Therefore, Zhang Xiu's choice to station the army in Changchun City is really a very strategic position.
At this combat meeting, Zhang Xiu said to everyone: "Now in the northeast of Fuyu is Lulou, although this tribe has a vast territory, but the local indigenous people have not yet been civilized, living in the crypt, relying on raising pigs (pronounced shΗ, the ancient name of pigs) for a living, the aggressiveness is not strong, we can ignore it for the time being." Directly east of Fuyu is the Dongwofu tribe, although they did not form a state, but they have a close relationship with Goguryeo southeast of Fuyu, and once Goguryeo is beaten by Gongsun Du and is unable to fight back, it is very likely that they will flee to the forests of Dongwofu for refuge. β
Zang Ba, the division commander of the heavy jockey, raised his own question: "We came from the Western Regions this time, in order to lighten the baggage, the heavy jockey did not carry the corresponding equipment, and now that the big war is imminent, I don't know when the required heavy armor and horse pistol will be in place?"
Li Hui, the military advisor, replied: "Neiying, who is lurking in the eastern Liaodong region, has already opened up the weapons delivery channel from Youzhou to Liaodong, and is now seizing the time to transport a batch of armaments and materials by sea and land. These materials came in under the banner of supporting Gongsun Du, and one of them on the surface was to support Guo Huai, Liao Hua and Gongsun Du's headquarters, but the secret batch was for our Blue Wolf Army. β
Lu Xiang, commander of the 1st Light Cavalry Division, asked: "I don't know where we will receive this batch of military supplies? After all, on the way south, a major war is now raging on all sides, and the slightest negligence may make people take advantage!"
Li Hui replied: "This batch of supplies will be mixed with the weapons that support Guo Huai in Gaoxian (now Tieling), and will be transported upstream, and some of them will be unloaded after arriving in Gaoxian, and then turn north into the area controlled by the Karasuma people. We need to break through the barriers of the Karasuma people and Liaodong Xianbei and rush this batch of supplies to Changchun as quickly as possible. β
Lu Kuang, the commander of the Second Light Cavalry Division, said with some puzzlement: "Our army now has 30,000 people, although it lacks heavy armor, but its combat strength is still not comparable to the Xianbei people and the Karasuma people, why don't you directly send a large army to block both sides of the Great Liao River, and take back this batch of armaments and materials generously?"
Li Hui replied: "If we dispatch so many elites at once, I am afraid that we will frighten the Karasuma people, Xianbei people, Goguryeo people, and Guo Huai people, in case they stop and stop attacking each other, wouldn't they have conceived the previous plan?"
Zhang Xiu nodded and continued: "The military advisor is reasonable, so we can only send a small force to infiltrate the area controlled by the Karasuma people this time, quickly get in touch with the fleet going north, and transport back the urgently needed armaments and materials. β
Zang Ba then got up to ask for battle, and he said: "The last general is willing to lead more than 5,000 soldiers to go this way!"
Zhang Xiu turned his head and glanced at Li Hui, and saw the meaning of "available" in the other party's eyes, so he turned back to Zang Ba and said: "I will allocate you 3,000 soldiers and 2,000 wolf light horses, and unify the clothes of the husband and Yu, and go to pick up and transport back this batch of armaments and materials!"
Zang Ba took the order, turned around and began to prepare for the operation.
