back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 187 Leisurely Fatty Lu
Jinyang City in Taiyuan Prefecture is a famous historical city and the famous place of Longxing.It is a pity that the original Jinyang City was burned down by the former founding emperor. Fortunately, the people of Taiyuan, who did not forget the old place, rebuilt Jinyang City in Tangming Town, [-] miles away, and it has remained until today.

Because it is located on the edge of the grassland, Jinyang City has always been the center of exchanges and conflicts between the Chinese nation and the grassland nation.From the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties to today, there have been successively the Qundi, Zhurong, Xiongnu, Xianbei, Jie, Di, Qiang, Turkic, Huihe, Khitan and other ethnic groups had fierce conflicts and struggles with the Han nationality here.This also made the people in Taiyuan Mansion have a tough personality and can ride a horse with a bow.

Lu Chenhuan, who had nothing to do, had been wandering around Jinyang City for the past few days, looking east and west, and found that there was nothing different from Chang'an City except for the strange streets.

After all, Jinyang City has a large population, and it is not far from the border of Dashun, and its commerce and trade have been developed since ancient times.Fatty Lu walked on the T-shaped street, not paying attention to the dazzling array of goods, but looking at the layout of Jinyang City with great interest.

Fatty Lu didn't know that this T-shaped street was specially created by the former emperor to crucify the dragon spirit of Jinyang City.If it weren't for this move, I'm afraid the Li family in Taiyuan would have won the world, and there would be nothing wrong with the Lu family.

Chinese metaphysics can always exist, and there is indeed a reason for it.You must know that in the official history, there were a total of nineteen emperors in the Taiyuan Mansion!Moreover, there are several founding emperors, so how can we reassure those emperors who have taken over the world?Only by crucifying the dragon's veins can the dragon spirit in Taiyuan be suppressed.

Even in this time and space, there have been several emperors in the Taiyuan Mansion, such as Zhao Xiangzi (the founding monarch of the Zhao Kingdom), Liu Heng (Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty), Liu Qi (Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty), etc., all of whom are well-known.This does not include the khans who fell into the hands of Di Rong in Taiyuan. If you count them, there will be more.

Fatty Lu is not interested in these things. He just wants to know how the defense of this famous Jinyang City is.There is no need to look at the Xiang army, it has been cleaned up long ago.None of these Xiang troops were bought by the Wang family, and they were almost equivalent to the Wang family's private soldiers.Who would dare to use such a Xiang army?
Without the defenders, the Forbidden Army became temporary defenders of the city.What Fatty Lu wanted to see was, of course, how the defense capability of Jinyang City was.Jinyang City is surrounded by Longshan Mountain in the west and Fenhe River in the east. It has been known as Dragon City since ancient times.It was this name, which made the emperors of all dynasties fearful because of a taboo.

The city of Jinyang is 24 li long and covered with bricks on the outside. There are eight gates in total. The east is Yichun and Yinghui, commonly known as Dadongmen and Xiaodongmen, the west is Zhenwu and Fucheng, commonly known as Shuiximen and Hanximen, and the north is Zhenyuan. , Gongji, commonly known as Dabeimen, Xiaobeimen, and Yingze and Chengen in the south.There are nine streets and eighteen lanes inside, with four gates, 51 city blocks around, and 32 enemy towers. The height of the city is three feet and five feet, and the depth of the trench is one foot deep.

The overall defense is composed of multiple facilities such as city walls, city gates, urns, turrets, enemy towers, and moats. This is a typical Central Plains-style city with complete defense functions.

The four gods of Guandi, Wenchang, the God of Wealth and the King of Medicine are enshrined on the towers of the four gates of Jinyang City.The inscriptions "Guyuan Pinghan", "Fengxuan" and "Dehua" on the forehead of the north gate imply that this place is the barrier to the north, based on the fact that the ancient city of Jinyang enshrined the gate of the superior's summoning and transforming the people with virtue, which is the ruling program of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty Liu Heng abbreviation of.The east gate "Dongfen Juxiu" and "Guanlan" describe the beauty of Fenshui, and you can watch the scene of rolling Fenshui from a high place at the top of the city.Ximen's "Xiduijintang" and "Wangcui" mean that the treasures of Xishan gather together, and the green hills are everywhere."Tongyin Jinyang" and "Jinxian" in the south gate mean that Jinyang was the place where Zhoucheng King Tong enfeoffed Shuyu in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, and all descendants enjoyed the rights and interests of the royal family.

Of course, as a leader, Fatty Lu would never care about the special meaning of the plaque in Jinyang City.He went all the way from the south of the city to the north of the city, and looked at Jinyang City.Standing on the tower in the north of the city at this moment, looking at the north, I feel quite emotional.He only knew that if the nomads in the north broke through the sixteen prefectures of Youyun, they would be able to drive straight in until the city of Jinyang.If there is no precaution, after Jinyang City is broken, the entire Central Plains will be exposed to the nomadic cavalry.

Therefore, there is a reason why Jinyang City is known as the northern barrier.At this moment, Fatty Lu understood why Lu Chengqi had to destroy the Wang family.If the royal family cooperates with the nomads, cooperates internally and externally, breaks through the sixteen prefectures of Youyun, and goes straight to the Central Plains, wouldn't Dashun be about to perish?
Fatty Lu couldn't help but look a little higher at the little emperor's strategic vision, and said in his heart: "This young emperor really has something special about him. At least he is as decisive as anyone else. The Wang family also ate it." Lard's heart is confused, and he dared to challenge the little emperor's bottom line, and his brain was burnt out."

After feeling a lot of emotion, Fatty Lu walked down the tower leisurely. With that tonnage, even the solid walls of Jinyang City trembled slightly.The bricks and stones rammed up the city wall, and the mud and powder kept falling.

Before going down the tower, a subordinate official who looked like a master shouted "General Lu" all the way, and trotted towards Fatty Lu all the way.When Lu Chenhuan saw the literati reflexively, his guard immediately stood up and reached the highest level.Although the person who came was a teacher, he was considered a literati, and behind him, even if there was a magistrate, Fatty Lu could not easily offend him.

Fatty Lu looked warily at the subordinate in front of him, and asked cautiously, "I wonder who you are?"

The subordinate smiled and said: "General Lu is really a nobleman who forgets things a lot. We only met a few days ago, just in front of the palace."

Lu Chenhuan remembered, wasn't the person in front of him the master that Liang Zhongwen, the governor of Taiyuan Prefecture, brought with him that day?Lu Chenhuan did not relax his vigilance, but became more vigilant.It's no wonder that these days, the balance between civil and military has gradually shifted to the literati. The warriors have been exploited again and again, and now they have deep prejudices against the literati.Fatty Lu's mind is not pure, so he naturally has a deeper guard against these slick and endless literati.

"Oh, it turned out to be the master of Liangfu Yin. I'm sorry and disrespectful. I don't know why the master is looking for the last general?" Fatty Lu said the polite words carefully, waiting for the master's next words.

This master will never make friends with generals in private, Fatty Lu dares to bet his life.It must be Liang Zhongwen's instruction that he came here to find himself.So here comes the question, Liang Zhongwen is looking for Fatty Lu, what is the matter?
Lu Chenhuan is not a fool, he can figure it out with his toes, this matter will definitely not be easy.Simplicity is a matter, Liang Zhongwen, the highest official of Taiyuan Mansion, can handle it by himself, do you still need the help of others?Fatty Lu is not an important minister of the emperor, Liang Zhongwen came to curry favor with him, no one would believe him!
"What does this Liang Zhongwen want to do?" Fatty Lu thought about all the possibilities quickly, and he denied them first.

At this time, I only heard the master say: "General Lu, Lord Yin of my family would like to invite you to visit the mansion to talk about Fengyue. I don't know if General Lu will appreciate your face?"
