Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 533
"You're right, it will take a lot of time to build a city on top of the original city, and it will take a lot of time just to clean up the ruins.

In fact, I don't think it is necessary for us to build a city on these ruins. This is close to the coast, so we will build the city directly on the coast.

When railways and concrete roads have not been built, we can transport materials by sea, which is not only fast, but also cheap. "Zhao Wen looked at the ruins in front of him and said.

The original Nuergan City is not far from the coastline, which is eight or nine miles away.Therefore, now Zhao Wen plans to build the city directly along the coastline.

There are many advantages to building a city on the coastline. It is close to the sea, so materials can be easily transported.

Before the railways and cement roads were built, if cement and other materials were transported by land, in addition to the time spent, a lot of manpower would be wasted.

In this way, it is better to build cities along the coastline.

Zhao Wen looked at Li Xiaosan next to him, "Take 50 people and go to the beach with me. I want to make a field trip to see where is more suitable for building a city."

Li Xiaosan cupped his fists at Zhao Wen and walked towards the army.

Not long after, Zhao Wen rode a horse and walked towards the coastline with 50 personal guards.

Besides Zhao Wen, Mao Wenlongbu and they also followed behind Zhao Wen.

Although they don't know how to build a city, they can also help Zhao Wen explore the terrain.

While Zhao Wen was surveying the terrain, Yebushou and the Cossacks had already fought together.

In the era that Zhao Wen lived in, Tsarist Russia had already set its sights on the Far East, especially Nuergan here.

At this time, Tsarist Russia had already begun to build fortresses in the Nuergan area, but because of the small number of people, there were not many fortresses.

When Tsarist Russia really invaded the Far East on a large scale, it was already in the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

Especially before the Battle of Yaksa, the capture of the Far East had reached its peak.

Although there is no large-scale attack on the Far East now, this does not mean that Tsarist Russia has no idea of ​​​​taking over the Far East.

Although the Cossack cavalry were fierce, compared with Xuanzhen's weapons, the weapons in their hands were one in the sky and the other on the ground.

When Zhao Wen scattered all Yebushou, these Cossacks instantly fell into Yebushou's cruel killing.

Thousands of Cossacks attacked these Cossacks non-stop at night, surrounded them, and knocked them off their horses.

Even if someone wanted to surrender, they couldn't understand what they were talking about these nights. Coupled with Zhao Wen's order, almost none of these Cossacks survived.

There were only about 300 Cossack cavalrymen monitoring Zhao Wen, and these people built a small fortress more than 80 miles north of Nuergan.

In the past few days, as usual, they came to Nuergan to survey the terrain and draw maps.

But unexpectedly, when they were about to arrive at Nu'ergan, they discovered Zhao Wen's army.

Zhao Wen's army consisted of tens of thousands of people, and it stretched for several miles.

If it was placed on other people, the moment they saw Zhao Wen, they would have already run away.And these Cossacks not only did not escape, but followed up, intending to investigate the situation of Zhao Wen's army.

It's a pity that their luck was too bad, they were discovered by Ye Bushou not long after they got close.

Under Zhao Wen's order, all Yebushou were thrown out.

Now, like stabbing a hornet's nest, the Cossacks fell into endless killing.

When the sun was hanging in the western half of the sky, these Cossacks had all been wiped out.

At this time, Zhao Wen was still wandering around the coastline.

"It's not bad here. The terrain is flat, relatively high compared to the sea, and the place is big enough. It's a good place to build a city."

Zhao Wen stood on a relatively high level ground with a smile on his face.

This piece of land is less than five miles away from the coastline. The terrain is relatively high and relatively flat. There are not many pebbles and sand, and the area is large enough.

"My lord, this is indeed a good place to build a city." Mao Wenlong looked at the land under his feet and kept nodding his head.

Although Mao Wenlong didn't understand things like building a city, he could tell that this place was very suitable for building a city.

Zhao Wen rode his horse and walked towards the coastline.

He stood on the coast and looked at the calm sea, "This is across the sea from Kuwu Island. The closest point is only fourteen miles away from the land. Because of the existence of Sakhalin Island, there is not much wind and waves. It is an established port. great place."

Kuwu Island is the ancient name of Sakhalin Island. During the Yongle period, the imperial court set up a guard in the northwest of Sakhalin Island, called Nangharwei.During the Zhengtong period, the imperial court set up the Polo River Guard in the central part.

It's just that all these were gradually discarded as the country weakened. Today's Sakhalin Island is deserted, and there are almost no other people except some savages.

The geographical environment of Sakhalin Island is very superior. It is adjacent to the land in the west and the country of Wa in the east. If you master Sakhalin Island, you can directly threaten the four northern islands, and then threaten the inland of Japan.

If the Sakhalin Island of the later generations belongs to the country, relying on the powerful infrastructure capabilities of the Celestial Dynasty, I dare not say that the Sakhalin Island will be built as impenetrable as gold, but it can also be made indestructible.

At that time, throwing a missile unit directly on Sakhalin Island, will the Japanese country dare to show off again?
Zhao Wen jumped off the horse, walked to the coastline, and walked along the coastline.

"My lord, where do you think this place is suitable for building a port?" Mao Wenlong followed behind Zhao Wen, pointing to the long coastline in front of him, and said to Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wendao: "It's not bad there. The coastline is sunken directly from there. It will be very good to expand this depression and build a port."

Zhao Wen pointed to a depression only a few hundred meters away from him, and said to Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong replied: "Then when will we start building the port? Building a port is not the same as building a city. If there are no knowledgeable people, I'm afraid we won't be able to build it."

"It's simple. After I finish surveying here, I will design the blueprint of the port myself, and then I will use sea ships to transport materials such as cement. If I work overtime, the general construction can be completed in about a year. .” Zhao Wen said.

After Zhao Wen finished speaking, he began to investigate carefully here.

In the next few days, Zhao Wen has been surveying the terrain here.

After the survey was completed, Zhao Wen ordered all the captives brought by the general to be expelled, and began to level the coastline and the places Zhao Wen selected to build the city.

These captives were left over from Sarhu before, and there were not many of them, only more than 1.

When Zhao Wen set off from Shenyang City, he brought all the Jiannu prisoners to Saerhu except the Jiannu people. In addition to the prisoners brought by Zhao Wen, there were also prisoners from Liaoyang City.

After 8000 people were selected and executed, Zhao Wen still had a lot left.

These captives, Zhao Wen, left the old, weak and sick in Laozhai when they were in Laozhai. The current captives are basically strong and strong captives.

Even if there is no cement now, these captives can still do some work on leveling the ground.

When the captives leveled the coastline and the place where the city was built, Zhao Wen issued several orders and asked Kuaima to send them out.

Some of these orders were sent to Xuanzhen, and some were sent to Phi Island.

The order to send to Xuanzhen was given to Liu Wenzhong, who asked Liu Wenzhong to organize a team to transport food, cement and other materials and construction workers to Dengzhou, and then transport these things to Nuergan by sea boat.

Dengzhou has now become Zhao Wen's sphere of influence. Although it is still under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, it has become a port in Zhao Wen's hands from top to bottom.

What was sent to Phi Island was to let the defenders on Phi Island transport the cement that Zhao Wen had hoarded on Phi Island to Nuergan.

In the past, Zhao Wen had hoarded a large amount of cement on Phi Island. These cements were left over from the construction of Phi Island, and the amount was still quite large.

Originally, Zhao Wen wanted someone to send it to Ryukyu or Wa Kingdom, but now that he plans to rebuild Nuergan, there is no need to transport it to Ryukyu and Wa Kingdom, and he will send it directly to Nuergan.

Although it is necessary to detour to North Korea by sea, even if it is to detour to North Korea, it is faster and more cost-effective than land.

After doing all this, Zhao Wen sent out all the people in his hands, and asked them to explore the surroundings with Nuergan as the center, draw a topographic map, and build landmark buildings.

……

Zhao Wen sat quietly in the big tent, and several topographic maps of the surrounding coastline were placed on the table.

Zhao Wen held a charcoal pencil in his hand, and drew city and port designs on a piece of rice paper on the table.

Although Zhao Wen didn't study architecture, Zhao Wen can still design such relatively primitive cities and ports.

"The appearance of the city should follow the appearance of Xuanzhen, with the General's Mansion in the middle, with the General's Mansion as the center, extending four miles outward.

This range is the inner city of Nuergan, and the barracks are arranged in the northeast and southwest of the General's Mansion.

There are government agencies within two miles of the General's Mansion. Although there are not many government agencies at present, there must be many agencies in the future. It is not wrong to make them bigger for a while.

As for the common people, they should be arranged outside the government units.If there is not enough space in the future, we will continue to expand outside.

As for the outer city, let’s talk about it later, it is too early to plan the outer city.

The port is arranged here. The terrain here is good, which is more suitable for the construction of a port. "

Zhao Wen was lying on the table, drawing drawings on the rice paper non-stop.

"My lord, my lord!" At this moment, Li Xiaosan's voice came from outside the big tent.

Zhao Wen raised his head and looked outside the big tent, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, come out quickly, what are you doing?" Li Xiaosan didn't answer directly, but asked Zhao Wen to go out.

Zhao Wen put down the charcoal pencil in his hand, and walked outside with a puzzled expression.

As soon as he walked out of the big tent, Zhao Wen saw Li Xiaosan and a group of guards gathered around, looking at something.

"What are you looking at?" Zhao Wen said in a deep voice, looking at the situation in front of him.

Li Xiaosan and others heard Zhao Wen's voice and hurriedly dispersed.

When the crowd dispersed, two stone tablets appeared in front of Zhao Wen.

Of these two steles, one is large and the other is small.

The two steles looked very mottled, with traces of rain washing all over them.

"My lord, these are two stone tablets. We found them on the mountain next to Nuergan, and there were characters engraved on them, so we got them back, and I want my lord to see what they are." Li Xiaosan pointed to the stone on the ground. The stele, said to Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen walked to the front of the steles, squatted down, and looked at the two steles carefully.

These two stone tablets are facing up, and they are full of traces left after the dirt and moss have been cleaned up.

Zhao Wen looked at the smaller stele, which looked like marble, one meter high, half a meter wide, and about thirty centimeters thick.

"Bring the rag, and the alcohol from the general!"

The handwriting on the stele was full of dirt, and it was impossible to make out what the words were, so Zhao Wen planned to clean it up.

Li Xiaosan and the others only cleaned it roughly, but it wasn't clean.

Li Xiaosan nodded, and hurriedly led a few guards towards the barracks.

After a while, Li Xiaosan came to Zhao Wen with two ceramic pots the size of cans.

Behind him, several personal guards each held a large handful of rags in their hands.

"My lord, the alcohol is here!" Li Xiaosan put the alcohol on the ground next to Zhao Wen, and opened the seal on it.

"My lord, dishcloth!" The guard behind him also hurriedly put the dishcloth in his hand in front of Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen squatted in front of the small stele, picked up a rag, dipped it in some alcohol, and began to wipe the stele.

After about a quarter of an hour, the front and sides of the stele were finally wiped clean by Zhao Wen.

"The Record of Yongning Temple!" On the front of the stele, as the alcohol dried, a line of Chinese characters appeared on the forehead of the stele.

Looking at these big characters, Zhao Wen's heart suddenly beat violently.

"Hoohoo!" Zhao Wen took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

Looking down, a row of vertical characters appeared in the middle of the stone tablet.

"I ordered Xiu Nuer to do the inscription on the Yongning Temple stele. This is the Yongle stele, the Yongle stele." When Zhao Wen saw this, he instantly understood what it was.

Zhao Wen hurriedly looked at both sides of the stele again, and saw several characters carved in Chinese, Mongolian, Jurchen, and Tibetan suddenly appearing on both sides of the stele.

Zhao Wen only knew Chinese, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the six-character mantra of Buddhism.

Seeing this, Zhao Wen was even more sure of the identity of the stele.

"Put this stele up, fix the bottom with stones, don't let it fall over, and be careful when you turn it over, don't break it!" Zhao Wen stood up, took a deep breath, and turned to Li Xiaosan and the others said.

Li Xiaosan and the others hurried towards the stele, lifted it up carefully, and erected it.

Zhao Wen hastily took out a clean rag and started to clean up the stele.

After cleaning up, Zhao Wen saw the six-character mantra carved in Chinese, Mongolian, Jurchen, and Tibetan.
