Chapter 341: Tokyo Bianliang City
Wang Jin will not look down on others because of their identity, since he chooses to accept it. Then he treated each other sincerely, pulled Zhang San and Li Si, and introduced the leaders behind him, greeted each other, and became familiar.
"Two brothers, now I have a task for you."
Wang Jin looked at the two land snakes in Bianliang City, Tokyo, and felt a test in his heart.
"Brother has a task, just leave it to us." Zhang San and Li Si patted their chests.
"Okay, I have something to do in Bianliang City, and I need someone familiar to lead the way, and the four brothers Li will go into the city with me to do business." Wang Jin immediately made arrangements.
"What about me?" Zhang San was a little impatient.
"Brother, don't worry!" Wang Jin smiled and continued: "Brother, you take the remaining brothers to settle down in the Wangjia Village store outside the north city to recuperate, and then take someone to inquire about the location of Anren Village first, and then find a person named Wen Huanzhang......"
In fact, Liangshan's spies had already taken root in Bianliang City. Whether it is a guide who needs to be familiar with the terrain or Anren Village, it has long been thoroughly touched. For now, it's just a matter of taking a look at the ability and efficiency of the two splashes.
Especially in Anren Village, Wen Huanzhang, an old professor, has a dream of becoming an official not to be underestimated. Liang Shan worked carefully, and the caravan was contacted many times, and the other party pretended to be stupid. Just send a group of Bobby to invite you, see how Mr. Wen resists?
Mr. Wang Jinnao made up the helpless look of the hooligans and smiled: "Your ultimate task is to find a way to make this family defect to me Liangshanbo." Of course, you can't be rude, it depends on your resourcefulness? ”
"Yes, the villain will complete the task." Zhang San's eyes rolled and he raised his head in reassurance.
"Alright, time is pressing, let's go now." Wang Jin did not hesitate and took out a hundred
The two lines of silver were handed over to Zhang San, and each of them was given a short-bladed talisman, and finally explained some matters, and watched them go due north.
He led people to continue to Bianliang City!
Kaifeng, also known as "Bianjing", "Tokyo", "Bianliang", is the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, is one of the six ancient capitals of China, Fuhua Jiatianxia, Kaifeng in the Song Dynasty when the capital, is the most glorious period of this ancient city.
The reason why it is called Tokyo is because since ancient times, Luoyang and Chang'an have been used as capitals. And Kaifeng is east of Kunguan, and in ancient times these places were called Kanto. Therefore, the capital of Kanto, the capital of the Kanto, is called the eastern capital, Tokyo. Because there is Bianshui flowing through, it is also called Bianjing.
The city wall is more than five zhang high and the huge oval city gate, Rao is Wang Jin, who has seen the big scene, still feels shocked and amazed by the wisdom of the ancients. Others such as Shang Guihua, Li Qingzhao, Yu Tai and others exclaimed.
However, on the magnificent city walls, there is a scene before the fall of the dynasty. Only flags fluttered on the city walls, but the forbidden troops above were sparsely populated, either leaning against the battlements or yawning, and the discipline was lax.
The Song Dynasty was corrupt to such an extent that it really declined.
Wang Jin's eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, he has seen it a long time ago, and he sighed in his heart. He knew that the Great Song Forbidden Army was the most important force to defend the Son of Heaven. It can be said that I picked and picked, and I chose and chosen. The world's strong men have become forbidden troops, the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the management of the army is very strict, the peak of the Northern Song Dynasty did have 800,000 forbidden troops,
This isn't bragging. During the reign of Song Renzong, the number also reached 830,000. But at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong ascended the throne, high
If you gain power, the fate of the forbidden army will change, such as Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and every year is not as good as a year. Until now, he has neglected training and has become a group of silver-like wax tips.
"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, what kind of system do the soldiers of the imperial city become?" Li Qingzhao saw clearly that the east and west on the city wall were crooked, the willow eyebrows were upside down, and the coquettish reprimands were repeated.
She had only heard how prosperous and rich Bianliang City was. That's why I braved the cold to follow the team. But I never thought that what I saw was such a scene, how could it not be annoying that the whole country was so slack?
"Yes, ma'am, you haven't been here, and you don't know anything about Tokyo." Li Si observed his words, immediately stepped forward and nodded, and whispered what he had seen and heard in the city.
For example, after Gao Qiu, who was born as a hooligan, became a captain in front of the palace, he built a garden pavilion in the camp for his own residence, and also regarded the forbidden army as a free labor, and the army did not train all day, only let them build houses and make money for the rich families, and the elders who had no skills in the army could only fend for themselves.
For example, in Bianliang City, the porters and pawns, the mason craftsmen, the caretakers and ......, as long as they can make a living, they all have the figure of the Northern Song Dynasty Forbidden Army!
"Alright." Wang Jin saw that Li Qingzhao's face was wrong, and interrupted Li Si, who was still about to speak: "Upward and downward effects, this is the phenomenon of the current society." ”
"Traitors mislead the country." Li Qingzhao clenched her silver teeth, although she is a woman, but the way of the country is strong and strong, which is the foundation of the country's stability.
"Just get used to it!" Wang Jin put his arm around the woman's shoulders to comfort her, and whispered about the history of the forbidden army of the Song Dynasty from prosperity to decline, and the rise and fall of the Song Dynasty. In the eyes of others, he has become a great writer of the past and the present.
"This is actually a good thing, if the court is
If there is no corruption, how can there be descendants? Lu Fang, Shi Xiu listened carefully, but then smiled.
"That's it, his old Zhao family can sit in a position, why can't my husband sit down?" Shang Guihua is becoming more and more well-behaved, and she is wholeheartedly advancing and retreating with men.
"Be careful!" Wang Jin saw a caravan approaching in the distance and waved his hand to stop everyone from talking. After saying "let's go into the city", he led people to line up with the line.
Money can make the devil grind, and the leader of the caravan stuffed the money and entered the city without inspection. Even the fierce and vicious Yutai didn't ask. Quickly pass through the laxly defended Urn Castle before entering Tokyo Castle.
There are no exact statistics on the population of Bianliang Castle in Tokyo. Song Taizu said that "the Beijing division raises hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and there are millions of people", if each family is calculated according to five people, then there are five million people.
This is obviously Zhao Kuangyin's bragging, bluffing the Khitan Liao State.
The most credible Song Dynasty documents record that "261,117 households, calculated according to a household of five people, then during the Chongning period of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, Bianjing and Kaifeng Prefecture had a population of at least 1.3 million." However, in the Song Dynasty, there were many people in each household, and women were not registered, so this number was only a little more.
After all, the permanent population of Bianliang City in Tokyo is three or two million, and the floating population is even more. In this era, such a metropolis of millions of people was unique, and it was said to be a miracle in later generations.
There are no high-rise buildings, most of the buildings in the city are three or two floors, accommodating millions of people! It covers a large area, and the roads extend in all directions, like a labyrinth. Putting aside the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, Bianliang City is indeed prosperous enough.
"Baked cakes, selling baked cakes, freshly baked baked cakes."
"Frozen pear, new
Fresh frozen pears are sweet! ”
"Sour loquat fruit, a bunch of pennies, a bunch, sour and sweet!"
"The best purple wood comb, hey, this guest master, buy it back and give it to Madame."
"Come over and take a look, white sugar and white sugar, the quantity is limited, come and buy it quickly."
On the streets, there are mostly food, messengers, crown combs, collar wipes, satin, flowers, toys and other things, and the small traders carry their burdens through the streets and alleys, selling food, wearing, playing, watching, shouting crisp and prolonged sounds.
There is also a flutter, which is actually similar to a prize promotion. The vendor puts the goods in front of you and puts a roulette wheel next to it, on which are drawn all kinds of small animals, and he turns the wheel up for you to use a dart to pierce. If you get a tiger, you can buy a big roast duck for a few pennies; If you pierce other animals, you can only buy them at the normal price, and the crowd is piled up, and the roar is like thunder.
Wang Jin thought that he had foresight, and took Li Si, the head snake of the land, with him as a guide, otherwise it would be time-consuming and laborious to know the stronghold and inquire along the way.
Rao is like this, and the people who have never been here are also a little dazzled.
What is the inner city of Anyuan Gate and Lijing Gate, Suzaku Gate, the first compartment of the left army in the southeast is the most concentrated residential area of the rich and noble. What a second box, the first army on the left, the ...... of Jianyuan Street, messy, messing around.
Wang Jin recalled the memories in his mind with the iconic buildings, and Li Si knew everything beside him, so he quickly familiarized himself with the terrain and made it easy to slip away. Under the guidance of the other party, he quickly came to the inner city to find the Chen family restaurant.
