Qin Dynasty Novelist

Therefore, there is no other way but to expand westward, northward, and southward. However, there is the Yiqu Kingdom in the north and the Shu Kingdom in the south. Naturally, the most important thing is only the west side. For a time, Di Rong on the west side country suffers.

As for that period of history, the annals of the Xianyang Palace have recorded it in detail. As for the real expansion of the Qin State to the east, it was after Duke Mu. Unfortunately, when the Jin State existed, the Qin State had always stayed in Hexi, even at the Hangu Pass. None are under control.

In the years of Xian Gong, although he had income, he was still suppressed by the Wei State in the land of Hexi. Only after Duke Xiao and the reform of the Shang monarch did he completely leave Hexi, control Hangu Pass, control the land of Hedong, and establish Hedong County.

Then it expanded eastward for thousands of miles, conquering almost half of the land of the three Jin countries, which were originally a country of thousands of miles. Today, South Korea is only three or four hundred miles away, and Wei is only a thousand miles away.

"Nongyu saw from the classics that in Longxi, there are many grasslands, deserts, and rivers, and there are few Dirong and Xiongnu in the north, and Qiang people in the south, but there seem to be many small countries in the Western Regions."

"The man from the Kingdom of Peacocks captured by Mr. Zhao in the Kingdom of Zhao last year came from the Western Regions."

In the ventilated and cool cabin, Nongyu was adjusting the rare fruit and wine, a faint mysterious light surged all over her body, and a trace of icy air lingered, making the whole cabin even more refreshing.

The jade cups are displayed, slowly poured, a trace of sweet fragrance spreads, the plain hand holds it up, offering it in front, and the crisp sound comes out, and I am really curious about the land of Longxi and the Western Regions.

Since Xinzheng returned to Xianyang, I haven't really gone out to play for a while. This time I went to Longxi for inspection with the help of my son, so I can take a look.

"Longxi is far away from the Central Plains, and there is no water vapor. Naturally, there are many grasslands and deserts. If you go up this Wei River, you can find the source of the Wei River. To the west is Lintao and Guanghe. If you go forward, you will be endless. desert."

"There are many high mountains and a single river, so there are few roads. If you travel thousands of miles along the deserted rivers west of Lintao, you can reach the land of the Western Regions. Qin State wanted to continue to expand, but the cost was too high, so it did not go west. .”

"To the south there are high mountains, and the Qiang people mostly live in it, and there are also many ethnic groups, comparable to Baiyue."

Hold it in one hand, take a sip, the cool drink enters your throat, but it is pleasant, and the depths of your eyes are shining with mysterious light. The farther you go to the west, the terrain becomes more and more monotonous, the mountains become more and more towering, and the roads become more and more few.

According to the news from Qianhong in the past few months, Zhang Han has assembled a team of ten thousand people and is training.

Three days later!

Tracing back to the source, it has reached the land of Shangyu in Longxi.

Four days later!

Arrive in Ji County, go down the Wei River, ride a horse, and go north to Tianshui Lake. According to the king's letter issued by the king's brother last year, he will take Tianshui Lake as his fiefdom with a radius of [-] miles.

It is rumored that thousands of years ago, the vast area north of the Wei River was sparsely populated and there were almost no houses. In addition, the land of Dirong continued to conquer each other, so that the place was even sparsely populated.

However, one night, suddenly there was a howling wind, thunder and lightning, a golden light shone, and a golden light emerged from the ground. Afterwards, the earth shook continuously, and a huge gap was opened amidst loud rumbling noises. ,

I saw the river water pouring down from the sky, pouring into the cracked gap, forming a large lake, which is the lake of Tianshui.

The water of the lake is clear, not long after it appeared, the land with a radius of hundreds of miles is densely populated with people and adjacent houses. Unfortunately, there are endless Di Rong, and there is no peace. It is more like a place where tribes are constantly migrating.

None of the old gentry clans in the land of Longxi would like to see other clans occupying that land, and it has survived to this day. Although there are many people, there is no unified city to manage it.

Six days later!

A group of people entered the land of Pingxiang, which was only thirty miles away from Tianshui Lake. According to Qianhong's document, they lived in it before the city wall was built.

"Qianhong greets you, my lord!"

The news that he was going to Longxi had already been conveyed, and someone sent it along the way. Zhou Qing held the rein, and from a distance, several familiar figures had already appeared in front of the city of Pingxiang.

"Pingxiang County Magistrate Lu Sha pays homage to Marquis Wu Zhen!"

"Pingxiang County Prime Minister Bailu pays homage to Marquis Wu Zhen!"

Of course, the county magistrate and magistrate of Pingxiang City are also indispensable. They all look middle-aged, well-dressed, and solemn.

Yan You Yourong.

Moreover, according to the words of the white girl a few months ago, the [-]-square-meter lake of Tianshui is the fiefdom of Marquis Wuzhen, and the city of Pingxiang where he lives is also in it, so he dare not be rude.

"Let's advance to the city."

Turning over and getting off the horse, Zhou Qing couldn't help nodding his head to meet the eyes of everyone looking over. His spiritual sense sensed that the heaven and earth here are much different from Xianyang in terms of moisture.

In the county government, a banquet was held.

Roasted lamb and roast beef unique to Longxi, and a pot of secret kumiss, all dishes are unique, tasted once or twice, it is also excellent, but it has the feeling of Longxi.

When entering the city of Pingxiang, it was already noon, everything was exhausted, and Shen Shi had already passed.

"My lord, it has been more than five months since the planning of the city site. The foundation of the city wall with a radius of nine miles has been established. Now it is speeding up the progress by partitioning. Not surprisingly, a new city will appear in the past two years."

"Sitting by the Tianshui Lake, the population is dense. After the city is built, it may become a rich city within five years, comparable to the cities of Didao, Shouyang, and Lintao."

In a large mansion in Pingxiang City, where Bai Qianhong and his party stayed.

In the main hall, Zhou Qingjing sat at the top, slowly looking at the blueprints on the table with one hand, as well as various messages from Longxi and the Western Regions, while Bai Qianhong at the bottom was talking about the current progress of the city's construction.

With the manpower, material and financial resources of Longxi, it is easy to build a city.

"Well, the most important thing now is to complete the construction of the city."

"As for the follow-up matter, it's not too late to figure it out slowly. Where is Zhang Han now?"

The situation in Longxi itself is not complicated, but looking beyond Longxi, everything is completely different, and it is precisely because of this that Zhang Han has trained a team of ten thousand people.

"Zhang Han should be training in Tongwei at this moment. The [-]-man team has been recruited and registered."

"Mo Crow, Bai Feng, and Ying Ge should be leading Xiao Wu to travel around Wusun Country and Yuezhi Country. Those two foreign countries are located on the main road to the west of Longxi."

"If you want to get through the countries in the Western Regions that your lord said, you have to go through these two small countries, and the distance is not less than a thousand miles!"

In the past few months, Bai Qianhong has learned a lot about the local and external situation in Longxi. Although it is located in a remote area, it is full of small countries. Although she does not know the current situation of the countries in the Western Regions, she has a lot of knowledge about Wusun and Yuezhi. Information.
