The Sacred Ding

As one of the three main castles of the Hengshan Defense Line, Hengshan City is also the seat of Hengshan Mansion, and it is close to the northwestern foothills of Qintong Mountain. Standing at the head of the city, Chen Hai looked towards the south-east direction, and he could see the beautiful mountains on the northwestern foot of Qintong Mountain covered with pure white snow.

Because the straight-line distance between Hengshan City and Liquan is only a thousand miles, and the extremely high peak of ten thousand meters, for Zhang Xiong, Suyuan and other Mingqiao realm and even Dao Pill powerhouse, simply Not an obstacle.

After Chen Hai took over the defense of Hengshan City, Zhang Xiong, Su Yuan and the others also rushed to Hengshan from Liquan to meet Chen Hai.

“I heard that the Taiwei Mansion has discussed building another Guancheng at the western pass of the Qintong Pass. It is said that after the Taiwei Mansion built this Guancheng to prevent the situation in Tianshui County from getting out of control, the Hexi Army has It may be a long drive straight to Qintong Mountain. Logically speaking, Longxiang Camp has moved to Tianshui County. It should be Hou Ye who led Longxiang Camp to be responsible for the construction and garrison of Guancheng at the western pass of Qintongguan Road, but the ministers in the court are all I didn’t mean to discuss with Lord Hou. After all, it is still not enough to trust Longxiang Daying.” Su Yuan told Chen Hai about the latest developments in Yanjing City.

“The world has never trusted for no reason. The gate city built at the west pass of Qintong Pass can control the situation inside and outside Qintong Mountain. How could it be impossible to fall into our hands, you Don’t think about it…” Chen Hai said with a smile.

Hexi crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood like the capture of Hechuan County, has greatly touched Yanjing’s all influence, even the Yanran Palace and the Jingjun clan headed by Yingshu Thoughtful, but at this time, I can’t bear it, knowing that it is necessary to join forces to limit Hexi Dong Xin’s excessive ambitions.

In addition to the Longxiang camp moving to Hengshan, allowing officials from Qinshan County and Tianshui County to communicate with each other, strengthening the ties between the two places, decreing to reprimand Hexi Duhu General Mansion, etc., at the same time in Qintong The construction of Guancheng at the western pass of the mountain was one of the many actions that Yanjing did to restrict Hexi during this period.

The construction of Guancheng on the West Pass is actually to move Qintongguan as a whole to the west, so that the entire Qintong Mountain can be completely included in the defense of Gyeonggi.

Qin Tongshan is not only a barrier to the west of Beijing, but also because of the existence of Liquan and Juquan Lake quenching gold placer mines, its status has become extremely important. Chen Hai guesses that it is not only the Jingjun clan and Yanran Palace The eunuch forces, including the other clans of the Miao and Yue clan, also hoped to keep the Hexi iron cavalry completely out of Qintong Mountain.

Continue to tolerate that Hexi transports three-four hundred million jin of quenched gold and iron from Liquan through various channels every year, and the annual output of 30,000,000 jin of quenched gold placer completely falls into Hexi’s hands. They are completely two concepts. .

Moving Qintong Pass to the west pass of Qintong Mountain, close to Qinshan County and Tianshui County, can also suppress Hexi’s ambition to continue eastward expansion.

In the situation that Yenching gradually loses control of the opposing county, this can be regarded as a wonderful move.

But Chen Hai summoned Su Yuan and the others, not to discuss these matters.

As the frontier general of the Hengshan Defense Line, he also knows the affairs of the Hengshan Mansion. In other words, the Eastern Region of the Hengshan Defense Line is not only under his jurisdiction, but also civil affairs and history. His scope of authority.

According to this, Chen Hai’s power at this time is no less than when he was garrisoned in Lianshui, but the land south of Hengshan City belongs to Huayang Prefecture, that is, Hengshan Prefecture. The areas under its jurisdiction are all north of the Hengshan Defense Line.

In fact, over the years, Tianshui County could not resist the invasion of the monsters, gradually abandoning the defenses to the north, and completely discarding the area of ​​Hengshan Mansion.

Chen Hai wipes the solid female wall built of black sandstone, on which there are traces of sharp claw, axe and arrow grabbing the hole and shooting, and there are also stains of blood that show that Tianshui County has given up thousands of miles to the north The land did not restrain Yao Mannan’s urge to invade and hunt food.

“The county captain Wu Cheng inspected Hengshan, I asked him, I also know the position of Hengshan Mansion, where Hengshan Mansion ruled, Wu Cheng stood at the head of the city, pointed his finger to the north, and said that the north was caught in Between Broken Dragon Ridge and Zhan Ma Ling, there is Hengshan Mansion. I wrote to Liao Xiyuan, the prefecture, to ask about this. Liao Xiyuan also said that Hengshan City and even Hanhai can be taken as the Hengshan Mansion.” Chen Hai Looking at the faint snowflakes falling in the northern border, they said separately, “They might think that I want to cut out an area from the south of Hengshan City to make up for the shortage of military resources, so they used this excuse to prevaricate, but since they all said it. No, I don’t want to be polite with them, 1st Step, I want to build a city in Yuchengling to the north, and realize this small goal first!”

“This is a small goal?” Huang Shuang , Su Yuan, Zhang Xiong, Sun Gan and the others were dumbfounded by Chen Hai’s words.

Tianshui County’s early defense line against the invasion of monsters from the south was in Yucheng Ridge beyond a thousand li in the Northern Part of City of Hengshan, but that was already more than a hundred years ago.

If Longxiang Daying were able to rebuild Guancheng on Yuchengling, it would actually bring the land between Yuchengling and Hengshan thousands of miles deep into the jurisdiction of Hengshan Prefecture. This would almost The area of ​​Tianshui County doubled to the north, which is a small goal.

It’s just that the Yucheng Ridge and Broken Dragon Ridge in the northwestern foothills of Taiwei Mountain and Zhanma Ridge to the north of Qintong Mountain form almost a straight line, which can be said to be the rest of the Taiwei mountain range in topography. The veins, but the degree of steepness is far from the Broken Dragon Ridge and Zhan Ma Ling mention on equal terms on both sides.

Yuchengling is mainly composed of a series of three-five hundred meters high solitary mountain and broken ridge. It can not be said to form a natural geographical barrier. What’s more, the Tonghe River is also grandiose flowing from the middle of Yucheng Ridge. It can be said that there is no risk to defend.

In the early years of Yang Sect, when Yang Sect was strong, he built hundreds of strong fortifications in Yuchengling and stationed nearly 400,000 elite battle strengths to keep the monsters from the north and unable to go south. 30,000 soldiers and horses, why defend the Yuchengling line of defense that is more than a thousand miles long?

Where is this damn small goal?

Even if Chen Hai can combine the important positions of Tianshui County Shepherd, Jundu Lieutenant, and Longxiang Lieutenant in his body, he can mobilize the manpower and material resources of the entire county of Tianshui, or possibly achieve this step ?

But at that point, they have to consider the involvement of Hexi, the Musashi Army and Yanjing, and they are basically impossible to push the defense line northward for thousands of miles at once.

Zhang Xiong, Huang Shuang, Su Yuan, Sun Gan and the others shook their heads, feeling that Chen Hai’s small goal is impossible to achieve with their current strength.

“In Celestial Emperor seventy two years, the refugees became a catastrophe. Although the emperor and his sons competed for the seat, the ministers had no intention of civil affairs, and the red eyebrow religion secretly instigated, but when it comes to the fundamentals, it is also the proliferation of people. Because of the narrow land and the serious annexation of the clansmen, they would rather indulge in spirits and animals than give charity to the cold people. In the event of a famine that lasts for several years, great chaos is inevitable,” Chen Hai indifferently said, “This At that time, the Western Northern Domain was furious again, and farming was abandoned. If there is another famine, the river Western border will be better, and Tianshui, Qinshan and Hechuan will again be flooded with famine. Hengshan City goes north, thousands of miles of fertile soil It’s a pity to grow food to feed tens of millions of people. It’s a pity that it’s wasted in vain. I didn’t plan to keep Yucheng Ridge not one drop of water can leak out at once, so I wanted to build a city first. Without stepping down, the Yaoman would have to pay the price of blood every further southward from Yuchengling. I thought that the demons would probably not rush to hunt south from the gap in Yuchengling.”

Chen Hai thinks of the wasteland of blood clouds. One day when Black Mountain is truly connected with Jin Yan states, Heaven and Earth Law will also be in disorder for a period of time. At that time, the Western Northern Domain Not to mention thorough mountains bursting and ground splitting. Catastrophes such as floods, droughts and earthquakes are never rare.

He did not make any preparations in advance at this time, and reserves a lot of food and grass. When the time comes, how should he deal with the impact of the catastrophe and how to welcome the several millions of people from the West Qiang country to move east?

One more thing, the entire Western Northern Domain, from the Helan mountain range to the north, through the Tie Liuling to the Taiwei mountain range, has geographical obstacles, easy to defend and difficult to attack; a real big gap In fact, it is in Yuchengling and Hengshan in the north of Tianshui County.

If there is no such opportunity right now, that’s all. Since the area north of Hengshan City has been put under his rule, he should do his best to build a great steel wall on Yuchengling. , So that in the future, hundreds of millions of Rakshasa blood demons can be blocked.

Currently, the Yuchengling defense line is being rebuilt at this time to block the monsters, so that between Yucheng Mountain and Hengshan, the refugees can be recruited and water conservancy projects can be built, and this fertile soil that is thousands of miles deep can be fully Use it.

When the time comes, relying on this land, relying on the people that breed in this land, the Tianji Academy can truly grow and eventually become the backbone of resisting the invasion of the blood demons.

Of course, that goal is still too far away. Chen Hai summoned everyone, and the 1st Step was to study how to build a city in Yuchengling.

Longxiang Camp moved to Hengshan, and Tianshui County was responsible for the food and grass. Obviously Chen Hai could not expect Tianshui County to build the city of Yuchengling with one more grain.

Chen Hai took out a stack of files from the storage ring, handed it to Su Yuan, and said, “I thought about the past few days and listed the things to be done in Hengshan City in the next five years. After a while, you guys will discuss and see what needs to be added or reduced…”

Su Yuan took the paper, Sun Qian, Zhang Xiong, Huang Shuang and the others all came together and put the file densely. “Packed” is written in lowercase letters, listing the things you want for the next five years:

Six to ten iron ore mines, two to four copper mines, two iron essence smelters, and one refined copper smelter. The annual smelting volume of iron essence in Hengshan City should reach 50,000,000 jin, and the refined copper smelting plant should reach 5,000,000 jin.

A war chariot workshop requires an annual output of 50 war chariots at pavilion level and 5 war chariots at township level.

A loader workshop requires an annual output of two thousand light-duty loader trucks with a single wind-racket type.

A golden halberd crossbow workshop requires an annual output of 10,000 single-soldier portable heavenly golden halberd crossbows, and an annual output of 1,000,000 special gold-hardened short arrows.

In addition, we will build a poultry domestication farm, horse farms, cattle and sheep pastures, logging yards, quarries, and 5,000,000 acres of cultivated land…

See Chen Hai Su Yuan, Sun Gan, Zhang Xiong, Huang Shuang and the others were dumbfounded. How could this be accomplished in five years?
