Chapter Eighty-Eight: Daze
Liaoshui soup soup, its waves are surging, its water is turbulent, from north to south, through Yandi for 300 miles, and finally into the sea.
In later generations, the vast plain between the Daling River and the Taizi River was affected by the flooding of Liaoshui, and the rivers were vertical and horizontal, with large and small lakes all over it, reeds and weeds everywhere, forming a vast Daze.
It's called Liaoze.
Liaoze is big, its plains and wilderness, the reeds are even the sky, the sky is hanging down the wilderness, the atmosphere is wet, and the sea is like looking at it. Between hundreds of miles, there are countless mountains, and there is no fist in the stones, only the gnats and flies cover the sky, and the ground is muddy. As far as the eye can see, there is no way to find things.
Between Liaodong and Liaoxi, because Daze lies in it, the traffic is very inconvenient.
The vast wilderness occupied by Liaoze was impassable in this era, and few people could cross the vast Daze, and it was not until the Tang Dynasty more than 800 years later that the road across Liaoze appeared.
If you want to get from the west to Liaodong, there are probably only two roads to choose from at this time.
One is along the coastal place, from the Jieshi to the sea to the east, you can go all the way to Liaodong County. If you go diagonally from Liaodong to the southeast, you can cross the water and reach the land of Korea. Of course, because this road is close to Liaoze in the north and Liaodong Bay in the south, the traffic situation is still very difficult.
In the original history, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty arrived, when the left general Xun Yuzuo Yang Fu went east to conquer Korea, his army traveled from this road. Even during the Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi's attack on Gongsun Yuan was also a coastal road.
This road is called Nakaido, also known as Pongkaido.
As for the other, it is along the Yanbei Great Wall.
During the Warring States period, in order to prevent the invasion of the northern nomads, the general Qin Kai built the Great Wall on the northern border of the Yan Kingdom to resist, and the Great Wall was in the shape of a line, and the end reached the Korean Peninsula.
Because the Great Wall is north of Liaoze, there are often traffic avenues close to the Great Wall. If you encounter a section of the road full of quicksand and unfavorable meadows, you can also use the "Castle Road" on the Great Wall, which is called the North Road.
The road conditions of the Kitabendo are much better than those of the Nakaido, but there are drawbacks. It is that the Great Wall on which this road depends is not straight, curved and undulating, deep inland, and its distance to Liaodong is much farther than that of the sea road.
At this moment, on the road north of Yiwulu Mountain in Liaoxi County, an army of 1,000 people is galloping eastward along the inner side of the Great Wall.
"As long as we pass Daze, we can abandon the Great Wall Avenue and go south along the flat land near the bank of the big river, and we will arrive in Liaodong in a few days."
"At that time, no matter how fierce the Qin soldiers are, it will be impossible to pursue them across Daze. The natural danger here was enough to make it difficult for Wang Qian's army to march, and the long road also made it difficult for him to maintain logistics. In this way, it is enough to ensure that my Yan Guoshe will not be destroyed. ”
Yan Wangxi sat in the car, with a smile on his face that lasted after the catastrophe.
After they entered Shanggu County from Juyongsai, they took a little rest, gathered some die-hard nobles from Shanggu and Yuyang counties, and marched diagonally to the northeast until they were parallel to the Great Wall, and went straight to Liaodong by taking advantage of the traffic avenue on the inner side of the Great Wall.
Yan Dan, who was sitting next to him, saw his father's expression of joy, and couldn't help but say: "Father, is it really okay to just give up the land of the four counties and flee to Liaodong?" That's a land of a thousand miles, a million people. If we raise the banner in Shanggu and Yuyang, connect Zhao Jia in the west, and start the army of Youbeiping in the east and Liaodong in the west, we may not have the strength to fight. ”
Hearing this, King Yan was furious, and he scolded him for scolding.
"Tremble, tremble! At such a time, you still want to fight the Qin army! ”
"Don't you know how terrifying those Qin people are? Qin Wuji led my Yan army to nothing. What a strong city my Yandu is, it was actually broken by the Qin army with witchcraft, such a terrible enemy, what do you use to fight him! What else do you mention Zhao Jia, with his kind of goods, sooner or later he will become a prisoner of the Qin army. ”
A flash of fear flashed in Yan Wangxi's eyes, and he thought of the huge roar he heard that day again.
To this day, he still doesn't know how Qin Jun made the hundred-catty boulder fly into the sky, could it be that he really mastered some witchcraft and secret arts?
As soon as Yan Wang Xi said, Yan Dan's face also changed, he had personally participated in the Battle of Yishui, so he naturally knew the strength of the Qin army.
It's just that the land of the four counties has not yet been broken by the Qin people, but they have to take the initiative to give it up, how can he give it up?
You must know that as the adult heir of Yan Wangxi, Yan Dan will definitely be able to inherit the throne in the future.
The dignified King of Yan, could it be that he could only trap a bird-sparing Liaodong, and be accompanied by a group of barbarians and Donghu savages?
As soon as he thought of this, Yan Dan trembled with anger.
Yan Wangxi saw through his son's thoughts at a glance, shook his head, and said: "It's good to be able to escape, we at least have Liaodong to go to, and we can save the blood and food of our ancestors." Otherwise, most of the orphans will be exiled and imprisoned like King Zhao and King Han, and as for you, it will be difficult to survive. ”
Speaking of this, Yan Wangxi became triumphant again.
He smiled and said, "Hehe, that Wang Jian Lao'er must be angry at the moment." I really want to see how hard he broke through Juyong, but he found that he couldn't find Lone's expression. By the time he reacted, Lone had already run to Liaodong. ”
"Wang Jian wants to destroy my Yan Guo Sheji like he attacked Han and Zhao, it's impossible!"
"Even you, Yan Dan, couldn't have imagined that Lone would directly give up the four counties and run to Liaodong. No one in the world could have imagined that day. ”
Yan Dan looked at his father with a helpless face.
But he had to admit that Yan Wangxi's move was indeed unexpected, and there was anyone in the world who could easily give up the land of the four counties, and this courage was indeed very strong.
Of course, it's not so much about the boldness. Yan Dan felt that his father was frightened by Qin Jun, and he was also frightened by the fate of the previous kings of Han and Zhao, so everything was only to save his life.
Yan Wang was complacent for a long time, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach, and there was a surge of air in his lower abdomen.
Those who want to be the dignified Yan King, since he succeeded to the throne, are all brocade clothes and jade food, and delicacies from the mountains and seas. He was like now, and even ate some brown rice and coarse meat on the road.
"Those things are not for kings to eat."
Yan Wangxi scolded in a low voice, and then raised his voice: "Stop, there is something to do." ”
The Mercedes-Benz convoy stopped at the side of the avenue, and Yan Wangxi jumped out of the car, carrying his clothes and drilling into the grass on the side of the road.
Yan Dan also followed, moving his sedentary body while letting the soldiers and servants in the convoy rest for the time being.
Everyone had been on the road for a long time, just to rest, drink water and eat.
After all, this place is almost close to Daze, and it is hundreds of miles away from Jicheng, where Wang Qian's army is located, and it is impossible for any enemy to appear at such a distance.
However, after a while, the rangers in the rear came back on alert.
"Qin Jun! It's the cavalry of the Qin army! ”
Screams came and went.
No one could have imagined that Qin Jun would suddenly appear behind them, only a stone's throw away.
Without hesitation, Yan Dan rushed into the grass with a big stride, grabbed Yan Wangxi, who was full of stunned faces, and dragged him to the car......
