Chapter 19: Chang'an (2) [Asking for Votes, Asking for Follow-up]
"None of us have been to Chang'an, but you have all been there?" With a drunken sense of alcohol, Hu Biao asked with some hesitation.
The main thing is that he thinks that there are many netizens in the modern plane, although they have been to that city.
But that's more than a thousand years later, and after such a long time, the city has long changed dramatically, and it's not a concept.
In ancient times, such a thing as traveling around was something that only those wealthy families were qualified to do.
Anyway, Zhang Tiezhu's poor goods are estimated to be a little difficult.
Facing Hu Biao's questioning, Zhang Tiezhu seemed to be a little angry, and immediately shouted: "Chang'an? Of course we have been there.
We are all recruits from all over the world, and we set off from Chang'an all the way to the Western Regions after gathering in Chang'an City.
Many years have passed, and a certain family remembers that after the army crossed the Baqiao, there was a little lady on the side of the road who broke a willow branch and threw it to me.
It is said that when they go to Chang'an, they will break a willow branch from the willow tree on the side of the Bahe River and pin it to the placket of their chest, so that they can ward off evil spirits and get rid of ghosts all the way, and they will be safe all the way.
Even after all these years, I still remember how handsome that little lady was.
I don't know if he was married to someone else at that time? ”
When he said this, Zhang Tiezhu's face with a terrifying scar became more gentle than ever; After Xu Shi thought of that little lady again, he was stupid.
It's a pity that Hu Biao and others didn't notice this.
Ruifeng, who was also a little drunk, excitedly asked: "I heard that Chang'an is the largest city in the world, is it true?" ”
Zhang Tiezhu went because he wanted the little lady, and this time he answered Xiucai.
This one is the only literate soldier in the entire Xuange camp, because of a large number of injuries and illnesses, and so on, and he said affirmatively:
"That's right.
Chang'an has 108 markets, it is said that there are more than 330,000 households, nearly one million people, compared to the original Beiting Protectorate, under the command of the four cities, of which all the military and civilian people are more.
I don't know how many Hu merchants in the Western Regions would fall to their knees on the spot when they saw Chang'an City for the first time.
Perhaps they believed that only the gods of Heaven could build such a large and prosperous city and be qualified to live in it. ”
Xiucai's voice fell, and the one-eyed dragon on the side seemed to be reminded of the best memories in his heart.
He also opened his mouth and added: "Chang'an City is really big, like a huge chessboard; Not to mention the imperial city where His Majesty is located, it will take several days to go through the 108 markets.
Coincidentally, the days when we gathered in Chang'an were the time of the Shangyuan Festival.
Your Majesty has a life, the Shangyuan Festival celebrates all over the world, and Chang'an City can't help it for three consecutive days; We were also fortunate enough to take turns to go into the city for a day, and the lively scene was unforgettable.
The market is lit up with lights, as if the stars in the sky have fallen into the world.
Everywhere there are men, women and children dressed up, and one of them will squeeze his sleeves off if he is not careful; The ears are full of laughter calling for children and daughters, which is really prosperous. ”
In the tone of the one-eyed dragon, you can hear a deep sense of pride and nostalgia.
In response to the above depiction, Wolf Qing, a single brother, pointed out the key point point:
"I heard that the little lady in Chang'an not only wears a good silk dress, but also has a very bold style and style, that is, the collar is very low, and even the groove can be seen quite clearly, is it true?"
Usually, this product would never ask such a question, but now it's not because the low-level Sanle pulp drank too much and got drunk, and asked the hearts of the old SP.
This question seemed to be asked to Liang Daya's heart, and he immediately said excitedly:
"That's right, even half of the coffin is exposed, it's so white; Even the orchid who solicited business at the door of the wine shop was not so clean compared to the cleanliness here in the Western Regions, and the smell of sheep on her body was not so big. ”
The warehouse manager asked the thoughts of many foodies: "Is there a lot of food and wine in Chang'an?" ”
"Chang'an City is full of wine shops, delicious ones include roasted tail feast, camel hoof soup, golden jade fish, goose and duck roast, raw sheep tart, gluttony, through the flower cake, locust leaf cold tao, breeze rice and so on
If you eat them one by one, I'm afraid you won't be able to finish them in a month. ”
Captain Wang, who happened to be carrying a roast leg of lamb in his hand, came over and heard such a question, and immediately answered it.
Even if he is a school captain, he hasn't been back for years......
*****
At about half past ten o'clock in the evening, with a drunken body of alcohol, Hu Biao and others returned to the barracks and fell asleep; But even when they were sleeping, there were still magnificent scenes of Chang'an City in their minds.
It was like a kingdom of God that had fallen into the world, full of joy and abundance.
Let every alien from outside be full of envy and yearning.
These are all magnificent pictures outlined through the words of Zhang Tiezhu and others, and finally in the minds of Hu Biao and others.
It represents this nation, a moment and memory that was once incomparably glorious.
In such a picture, even when they are sleeping, they are very leisurely and fascinated, and they really want to go to that great city to see.
It's just that what they don't know is that something has happened at this moment that will determine their future fate.
First, in the city lord's mansion, Guo Xin's personal soldiers looked at their own handsome, kneeling in front of the lamp and seemed to be getting older and older, and finally couldn't help it.
He walked up to the front and back with a plate in his hand, and said:
"Guo Shuai, you haven't eaten for a day; Didn't you praise the soup cake called 'mutton steamed bun' last night?
Today, when they were having a carnival in the city, they brought some food called 'dumplings', saying that they were deliberately made for you, so you might as well eat some. ”
As soon as he heard this, Guo Xin, who had a headache because of the war, became more and more angry in his heart.
He admits that yesterday's strange soup cake called 'mutton steamed bun' can be said to be the best meal he has ever eaten in his life.
It is precisely because of this that he ate too much in his mouth yesterday, which made him suffer even more today.
It was all because of the severe hemorrhoids that made his stomach suffocate terribly.
Therefore, if you don't eat, you will be hungry, and if you eat, it will hurt.
Looking at Guo Xin's expression, the guards beside him naturally knew what was going on, and with a thought, he said, "Guo Shuai, why don't you try the ointment offered by those dolls?" ”
Xu is the performance of Hu Biao and others in the past two days made Guo Xin let go of more precautions in his heart.
Or maybe it's the physical pain that makes him willing to take a risk.
So after asking Hu Biao about the specific use of the detailed message, Guo Xin began to change his clothes; The so-called changing clothes is just a name that the ancients sometimes used to go to conveniently.
In short, when Ma Yinglong touched the affected area, that cool feeling went straight to the Tianling Gai.
made Guo Xin feel that his whole soul was floating in an indescribable sense of comfort; All the feeling of anxiety disappeared in an instant.
In the end, when he came out from behind the screen with a relaxed step, Guo Shuai, who seemed to have been reborn, commanded to the guards:
"Go and bring the 'dumplings' and bring another pot of syrup.
By the way, I remember that I still have a spare old armor, take it to that Hu Biao, and give it to that Hu Biao, which can be regarded as giving him a chance to survive in the next battle. ”
After hearing this, the guards were shocked before agreeing.
The look of envy in his eyes can be seen by everyone.
Second, in the dark night, only fifty or sixty miles away from Qiuzi City, a large army was marching all night.
The long torches are connected into a huge long dragon, and there is no end in sight.
Compared with the information obtained by the soldiers and civilians of the original Qiuzi City.
Today's Tibetan army can arrive at the city at least three days in advance, that is, around dawn today, and once it arrives, it will launch a fierce attack like a storm.
In the position of the Chinese army, the commander of the Tubo army this time, Shang Qixin, the future minister in the history of Tubo, is far from being so calm as it seems.
Because decades ago, even if they took advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, they had to send most of the Western Regions army back to quell the rebellion and occupy the land west of the river.
However, the Anxi army, which had severed contact with the Tang Dynasty, still repelled their countless attacks with the remaining thousands.
Let the land of the Western Regions always be completely controlled by Tibet.
Fortunately, by now, these Tang troops are completely old and can't fight, so this time the entire Western Regions is destined to be defeated by them in Tubo.
For this reason, they did not hesitate to notify all the tribes under their command to send troops thousands of miles in advance to participate in the war.
It is not that they cannot eliminate those veterans of the Anxi Army with the power of their Tibetans, but that these grass-like foreigners will form a deeper hatred with the Tang people......
