Chapter 315 Longquan City

Longquan Shangjing is the largest city in the northeast of the prairie.

This place is adjacent to Jingbo Lake in the south, surrounded by the remaining veins of Changbai Mountain, and facing water on three sides. The best rice.

The Lord of Longquan, Bai Ziting, has great ambitions and has long wanted to allow the Mohe people to establish their own country independently, so the architect he appointed arranged the city according to the layout of Chang'an, making the city five feet high and made of basalt. , very strong, with a magnificent archery tower, to deal with enemies of various races mainly cavalry.

If we talk about the shortcomings of this city, it is only because of the geographical environment, materials, time and many other factors that make this city a quarter of the size of Chang'an.

Under Fu Nanda's guidance, Chu Tianxiu rode into the city, but was also a little surprised to find that not only did the city look like Chang'an in the Central Plains, but the civilians in Longquan City were very different in terms of clothing, customs, writing, The culture and system are all the same as Chang'an. If you are in it, you will almost undoubtedly think that this is Chang'an who returned to Zhongtuguan from outside the Great Wall.

"Master, I've heard you say before that Bai Ziting, the Lord of Longquan, is an extraordinary person. But I didn't expect him to be able to make such a great cause in this place outside the Great Wall. I'd rather I have some doubts, whether it is the right choice for me to support him in establishing the country in Longquan."

After Chu Tianxiu looked at the scene of Longquan at a glance, he raised some vigilance in his heart, and smiled half-truthfully.

From the perspective of the ranking of enemy countries established by alien races outside the Great Wall, the Mohe tribe can establish a country, and it is not considered a great enemy. Its degree of danger ranks behind Eastern Turks, Western Turks, Goguryeo, Tiele, Tuyuhun, and Huihe. , this country is currently not bordering on the land of the Central Plains, and naturally it cannot threaten the security of the Central Plains.

However, Chu Tianxiu’s memory told him that today’s Mohe tribe is indeed not impressive. Even in history, Da Zuorong, the son of Bai Ziting, did successfully establish a country and established a Bohai that seemed like a flash in the pan at the end of Tang Dynasty. Not long after the country prospered, it was destroyed by the Khitan hero Yelu Abaoji.

After the Bohai Kingdom destroyed the country, the Mohe tribe was also torn apart, but this tribe also has descendants who have passed on, that is, the Daliao was destroyed first, and then the Song Dynasty was destroyed. They ran rampant in the Central Plains for nearly a hundred years, so that they brought the greatest humiliation to the Central Plains. of the Jurchens.

"Worshiping Ziting is not at the right time, but he is indeed a hero of the time. It is said that he stayed in Chang'an for a long time before the death of Yang Jian, the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty, so he was deeply influenced by the heyday of the Sui Dynasty. So after he returned to Bohai, he imitated Sui everywhere, and it took nearly ten years to build this Longquan City here, and the old man was willing to help him because of his talent and ambition."

It seems that Funanda was emotional because of the situation, after recalling the time at the beginning, there was a look of emotion on his face, and he said with some emotion.

Chu Tianxiu thought about it in his own head, and after seriously thinking about the form of Longquan Kingdom, he agreed with Fu Nanda's statement and took it for granted.

The time is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the harmony of people.

Chu Tianxiu did start from Jiangyin, but that was because Chu Tianxiu needed to rely on the influence of the Bamboo Flower Gang to accumulate the first pot of gold for herself.

From the perspective of geographical advantage, even though Jiangyin City can be regarded as the throat of a fortress in the south, it is not a completely suitable place to start.

If Chu Tianxiu hadn't found a new way, he set out to occupy overseas lands from the very beginning, based on this, and then used his own foresight to go to Jiangdu first, and then to Luoyang. .

If the struggle for hegemony is also assigned to enthronement, then Li Tang in the original history should be regarded as "difficult", while Li Tang in the original plot of the Tang Dynasty can be called "simple", and Chu Tianxiu who started in Jiangdu It is considered "difficult".

In comparison, the difficulty of establishing a country in Longquan for the Bohai Kingdom is truly a "nightmare".

The place of Balhae is actually between the two countries of Turkic and Goguryeo, and it originally existed as a "buffer zone" between these two countries.

If the Bohai Kingdom does not establish a country, it is okay, then if it successfully establishes a country, it will inevitably usher in the frantic strangulation of the East Turks, and even after the East Turks know the news here, I am afraid that they will temporarily abandon the Central Plains issue because of this. Let's talk about stabilizing the backyard.

"For the time being, let's take a look! Considering the bad situation in Bohai State, my move can indeed be regarded as raising tigers, but if the tigers are not big enough to be hunted and killed by hunters, then it is not considered a problem to raise tigers. Even if things happen If there is any problem, at worst, I will personally operate the knife to eliminate this scourge."

With such a mood in mind, Chu Tianxiu walked all the way to the Chengtian Gate at the entrance of Miyagi in Longquan City. A civil servant in his forties came out to greet him. He first saluted Chu Tianxiu, and then greeted Fu Nanda. After a Buddhist ceremony, I introduced myself:

"The right prime minister of the Bohai Kingdom, Su Farewell, welcomes His Majesty Zhou. My lord has been waiting for a long time."

This guest official is upright and looks quite good. Although he is dressed as a civil servant, but judging from his figure and bearing, with his temples bulging high, he must be a first-class martial arts expert. Tianxiu also noticed that this Ke Subie was an authentic Mohe person, but his posture of saluting was not much different from those civil and military ministers in Jiangdu. , indeed learned to the bone.

A glimpse of the leopard in the tube can be seen.

At this time, Chu Tianxiu suddenly realized that he originally thought that the complete integration of Central Plains culture and grassland people began in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, but in essence, the integration of Hu Feng and Sinicization began as early as Wuhuran When it was in China, it unfolded in an extremely bloody way, but because of the special national conditions of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, this integration reached its peak.

Such complicated thoughts just flashed through Chu Tianxiu's heart, and he didn't show the slightest bit on his face. He showed a calm expression on his face, and directly nodded and said:
"Since that's the case, there is Mr. Lao Ke."

Ke Subie didn't dare to say anything, but just led the way straight ahead, making Chu Tianxiu walk into Longquan's palace in a big way, but to Chu Tianxiu's surprise, after he arrived at Baiziting's bedroom, he hadn't seen her yet. When I went to worship Ziting himself, I heard a voice like the sound of nature.
