In the Taibai Mountain, which is surrounded by ridges and ridges in the southwest of Beijing, an ordered team is also trekking through the lush mountain valleys. It's just that every time a line passes a certain distance, they will chop down a tree on the side of the road to make a temporary mark in a certain calculation formula.
The leader is a local from Gyeonggi with a cold breath, pale face and withered hair, named Cao Jiri. It's just that he has nothing to do with Cao Shixiong, the current commander of the Guannei attacking army, but the adopted son of Cao Zhiqi, who was born as an eunuch in the past.
At that time, Cao Zhixu was originally from a wealthy family in Huayuan. After Huangchao captured Chang'an, Cao Zhixu returned to his hometown to break his family and collect strong warriors. He occupied the construction camp in the southern part of the La'e Mountain in northern Beijing, and repeatedly defeated the invading volunteers.
Even then, the strong warriors recruited for many times were sent to change their clothes and words, imitating Huang Chao's men and horses, and entered the camp of the rebels in Chang'an at night; even at that time, many people were frightened and thought it was ghosts and gods. Huang Chao suspected that his subordinates were rebellious, so he killed many people in the chaos.
However, it aroused the enmity and envy of Tian Lingzi, who was in the rear of Shu, and even ordered Li Chonggu, the envoy of Jinning Jiedu at the time, to send troops to crusade. As a result, the Suining Army suddenly mounted a high altitude attack from the north of Saga Mountain. Cao Zhichi's troops were not prepared, and all the men and horses were killed.
In the end, only this Cao Zhiri, known as the "Xiaoya Nei", escaped because of taking people outside to prepare food. So when he saw such a miserable situation, he simply surrendered to the Daqi New Dynasty and became the guide and pioneer of the Daqi Rebels' capture of Dingning Town.
Then he moved to Jingzhao Mansion Shaoyin, the nine-door patrol ambassador, Meng Kai. Although Cui Anqian and Zheng Tian's two major counterattacks in the pass, they have never wavered or turned back, and stood firm. The opposite of the imperial court.
Therefore, once as Meng Kai who was recovering from his wounds, he handed over one of the few remaining team members; Cao Zhiri was also assigned a new task. As a local who is familiar with the geography of Gyeonggi, he led and guided a team of the Taiping Army into Taibai Mountain to search for possible defeated soldiers and secret strongholds.
As the highest peak of the Qinling Mountains, Taibai Mountain has been famous for its high, cold, dangerous, strange, and secretive characteristics since ancient times, and is the top of the Qinling Mountains. It is also the highest section of the watershed between the Weihe River and the Hanjiang River. It has a variety of landform types such as low mountains, middle mountains and high mountains. It is known as the four seasons are distinct and unique.
Therefore, in the past, there were also a lot of people in the mountains, because they evaded the refugees' strongholds (mountains associations) expropriated by the government, and even became the shelters of the desperadoes who were pursued by Yusi, who were criminals and murderers. The place.
Of course, after the successive famines and wars in the pass, although the journey has encountered many settlements of former mountain people, and the genus of Orion huts that appear in the forest from time to time, it is basically empty. Desolate and desolate for a long time, there are only traces of birds and beasts.
And when this team, which continued to thicken their clothes as the altitude rose and the temperature dropped, successively crossed the iconic scenic spots such as Doumu Palace, Baxiantai, and Dataibai Sea, and traveled all the way to the foot of the highest peak in Taibai Mountain.
Under the main peak of Baitou, known as one of the eight scenic spots in Guanzhong, "Taibai Snow-covered June Day", in the river ditch from high to low from narrow to wide, there are many large and small rocks like the sea formed by the impact of multiple snow-melting and icy lakes.
And the last trace of the winding road disappeared, between the piles of rocks and the messy water. In the air, even with the biting cold wind and thick clouds, a little bit of snow rice began to be sent.
But the team that had been prepared did not stop because of this. Instead, they took down the corresponding equipment from the packhorse that they were pulling northward, and began to tap and slap the nearby stones and piles of dust and mud one by one.
A primitive pattern carved on a moss-marked stone surface resembling a multi-petal flame was exposed; and in the direction guided by this pattern, these sergeants quickly used various tools to clean up the gravel deposits. It showed a gap and road surface enough to pass through.
This is a fairly hidden path, between these inconspicuous piles of rocks, extending straight into the deep crevice between a mountain wall in the distance. And within this crevice, there is actually a mountain road that is cut into the cliff that is barely enough for carriages and horses to pass.
I don’t know how long it took. After rising and falling along with the road on the mountain wall, everything in front of me suddenly became open, and between the more luxuriant long-leaf grasses and trees, a relatively warm and moist appeared. The shade of the valley comes.
Most of the cold and wind coming from high altitudes seemed to be cut off by the twists and turns of the mountain wall. The Taiping sergeants who had been squeezed by the cold wind all felt high. To a certain ease and convenience.
And in the front one exposed a relatively flat and open part of the valley, surprisingly cascaded with green and yellow fields and mottled green vegetable borders. It seems that it has been cultivated and operated for a long time, but now most of them are covered with waist-high weeds and other vine vegetation.
And when I walked over the mountainside above this section of the valley, it was another refreshing scene. Because just inside this hidden valley, it looks like two curved gourds, and through the tree-shaded gorge, "there is a valley in the valley"-like hiding the other half.
Along with the winding roads like snakes and grass belts, from lowlands, gentle slopes to mountainsides and flat tops, there are a lot of messy and overgrown grasses and trees, and many abandoned buildings that have been disrepaired for a long time are scattered. Pedestal.
Except for Cao Zhiri, who was dazed, all the sergeants who were watching suddenly showed a certain expression of relief. Because this is obviously the main goal of their trip, the former No. 1 Assassin of the Tang Dynasty/Mission Organization, the location of Lingxue Pavilion, hidden in the Taibai Mountains.
"But I don't want to, there are such places in this mountain? It's really a waste of life,"
Cao Zhiri, who was walking in the front, couldn't help but sighed: However, before his words fell, he was suddenly hit by an arrow flying in the sky and fell to the ground.
And this is like a trigger that is on the verge of triggering. Suddenly, from among the barren grass, rocks, and trees, many throwing knives, darts, and crossbow arrows were shot to envelop the intruding team.
"Enemy attack..."
"Information..."
"Preparation..."
Suddenly one after another screams, cries of pain, and the scream of sharp weapons all over the sky, and the sound of ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong-ponging with cards and blunders, resounded through this deadly valley.
At the same time, in Chang'an City, where the Ministry of Education was located, in the fifth room of the political affairs hall where the three high-ranking officials collegiate, in the largest cardinal hall.
Zhou Huaian is also thinking about the newly released latest version of Chang'an Three Inner Mongolia, which is a highly simulated sand table model of the twenty-five streets that span the east and west, north and south sides of the city, and 108 squares in the two cities. , It’s just that some of the scenes that were destroyed and burned during the war have also been restored.
And among the city square models that are spliced in pieces, there is a special cheongsam dress with slim, tight-waisted gold and red borders and wispy breasts, and a large white outline on the thighs as high as the underarms. It is barefoot. Han Jiyue, who is as light as a water tern and sings and dances.
I saw her long and fluttering hem as she danced, and it was difficult to conceal the long legs of Bai Jieying. Her cardamom-like toes barely exerted much effort, pedaling lightly between the town squares, another kind of self. The beauty and beauty of roaming in the clouds, touching hearts.
The melody and rhythm of the dance she sang at the moment was actually restored by Zhou Huaian personally from the later generations of the Internet scoring magic song "The Land of Elysium"; she appropriately placed her at the age of Otome between Da Lolita and Yu Jie. The beauty of the posture was expressed vividly and tightly.
It's just that as Zhou Huaian's eyes turned, he flew to another place with most of his thoughts. Because, after the new round of censorship in the huge city of Chang'an, there are only nearly 200,000 people left.
After all, this was the result of the previous escapes and chaos before and after Huang Chao entered the city, the two large-scale migrations of the Taiping Army, and the repeated fierce battles between the Hedong Army and the Western Army to defend the city; coupled with the famines and epidemics in it. .
Therefore, the population that can survive to this day is far less than one-fifth of the one-fifth of the million registered permanent residences in the heyday of Chang'an Security. Therefore, it is no longer realistic to use the remaining population to maintain the daily operations of such a metropolis.
It’s no wonder that Han Jian, one of the five-generation warlords in another time and space, could only rely on demolishing the remnants of the vast city wall after occupying Chang’an, while Kancan rebuilt the part near the imperial city as a new city garrisoned, while leaving other places. Flattening and opening up farmland.
However, with the resources and territories that Zhou Huai'an has now, there is no need to be so stubborn at all. The Taiping Army regime has now relatively firmly controlled the five roads and twelve roads, nearly two hundred military prefectures, and dozens of large cities and towns. It is also a matter of waiting for tens of thousands of wealthy households to be randomly selected.
In other words, this kind of thing does not need to be enforced by people, as long as there is a little publicity, there are often people rushing to come. After all, this is the first place in the world, and it is also where the new dynasty will be in the future; anyone who is motivated will naturally follow it.
Similarly, there is the fertile fields of fertile fields represented by the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan in the hinterland of Guannei Road. After several major battles were fought, it was enough to turn most of the land into a land of no owner. This is also a huge potential positive trend.
Therefore, Zhou Huaian did not want to simply and rudely move people in accordance with the custom of filling in households in the past dynasties. Instead, these city plots must be renovated and fully utilized through careful planning.
Therefore, in his preliminary ideas, in addition to the tens of thousands of Jiansheng troops responsible for construction projects and short- and medium-term civil service, the follow-up investment in the corresponding repair and reconstruction is through the sale of corresponding real estate to the wealthy and wealthy people in the vast control area. With coupons to get supplements.
The hinterland of the Guannei Basin will be re-divided into dozens to hundreds of directly affiliated large-scale public farms, with the fields in the Jingwei River basin as the core. It will concentrate manpower and resources for collective production, and provide food, clothing, and agricultural by-products for the garrison and the regime. , Factory raw materials;
Then in other places, it was used as a place for military and civilian separation and resettlement, and the people were encouraged to open up wasteland and reclaim new land for private property in the corners near the mountains and hills. (End of this chapter)
