Chapter 29 Pavilion Post Defense

On the 39th day of the lunar month, Wang Jian had arrived at the Liangting Station. This station was officially established by Linyinbao. All businessmen and troops entering and leaving Linyinbao passed by here. It became lively with the coming and going of people.

A small residential area gradually formed in the open area to the north of the pavilion, which is called Pavilion Village.

There is a small river in the valley, which is a tributary of the Baishui River. It flows through the Sentinel Ridge and passes through the Liangtingyi Valley, and joins the Langshui River in the north.

To the west is a large mountain that stretches for more than thirty miles, called Dadui Mountain. To the east is a mountain that stretches from Liangtingyi to the east, with the uninterrupted Hongshan Mountain in the middle, and extends eastward along the Baishui River to the north of Maling City.

, the mountains to the north that can be seen in Maling City are actually the northern section of the majestic Red Mountain.

As for why it is called Hongshan, Sun Difang also told him that many slopes of Hongshan will be as dark red as blood under the sun, and they are connected into a large area, which is a spectacle, especially in the western section near Linyinbao and Liangtingyi.

This situation became more obvious, and over time people called it Hongshan.

However, there is no such phenomenon in the eastern section near Maling City. Moreover, the trees there are lush, the products are rich, and there are many animals in the mountains, which feed many hunters. Therefore, some people in Maling call it Daxian Mountain instead of Hongshan. There are also rumors.

There are enlightened gods and so on in the mountains.

Sun Difang also lamented that God was unfair. It was the same mountain. The eastern section near Maling City supported countless people, while the western section of their area had sparse vegetation and few birds and beasts. She said that Maling City might really have heaven.

Bless them, the gods of the mountains and mountains are on their side.

Wang Jian took several soldiers, Liu Yu, Uncle Gong, Sun Difang and others to climb the northern slope of Hongshan Mountain. From a ridge, he looked at the endless mountain peaks in the east. Under the evening sun, he also saw

Those strange scenery, the large ridges reflect light like inferior mirrors, and the patches are dark.

The red land extended from the middle of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and the vegetation was sparse on the reddish-brown ridges. He guessed that the sunlight reflected into the sky would scare away birds, so there were no living things in the sky in this area. The clean orange-red morning sun was particularly conspicuous.

It's almost dizzying, stretching their figures very long.

"Ominous place." Liu Yu spat out a few words.

After she said that, the faces of the people next to her were not good-looking, but Wang Jian didn't care: "I can't say for sure whether the details are clear or not." He already had some preliminary guesses about the Tut landforms and natural landscapes, but they still needed to be verified.

As he spoke, his eyes returned to the river valley. At the front of the Liangtingyi River Valley, someone had already started building sentry towers and wooden fences. The busy workers were like ants under the command of the foreman, and there were more fortresses being built behind the river valley.

, some are located on both sides of the river valley, and behind them are more solid stone fortresses.

Especially a mile or so behind the front guard tower and the narrowest part of the river valley, a strong fortress was built.

Liu Yu was as puzzled as everyone else: "These fortresses can allow two thousand people to resist an army of ten thousand people? Have you ever fought in a battle?"

Wang Jian turned around and said, "No, but I am a genius." After saying that, he grinned. Everyone was speechless by his honeyed confidence. Liu Yu looked at him and said seriously: "This matter is not a child's play. If

Even if I'm defeated, they won't dare to touch me. I can only go back to Hongnong County or Chang'an, but you are different.

That old guy Mu Sheng must be desperate for your head, otherwise his prestige will plummet.

You killed his commander, his nephew, and now the news has spread throughout Maling City. There are many people who are laughing at you, and other officials may still be waiting to see the joke."

After hearing what he said, a bright light flashed in Wang Jian's mind, and he waved to Sun Difang and asked: "Sir, the next minister in power will be elected the year after next, right?"

Sun Difang nodded, "Yes, on May 66th of the following year, the six chief ministers and the princes and nobles of viscount and above from all over the country will gather in Handan to worship the emperor, empress Tuhe, and the lord of Lingshan, and elect the next minister in power."

"This sounds a bit like the practices and habits of the Huns. What do you do with this?" Liu Yu asked.

Wang Jian chuckled and said, "While you are still so stupid, King Zhao cannot stop the princes from fighting each other, but the six ministers can."

Liu Yu's face turned ugly at first after hearing what he said, but her eyes lit up when she heard the second half, "You mean United Mu Sheng's opponent." After that, she was angry that she was called a fool and kicked Wang Jianyi.

foot.

Wang Jian bared his teeth, damn, this bitch has practiced it before! If he still has the golden elixir body, don't say kick her until the bones are broken!

"Yes, Mu Sheng wants Hu Fu so much and is interfering in Heyang's affairs. At this point in time, I don't believe that he has no intention of competing for the power. As long as he intends to, he will have enemies." Wang Jian covered his feet and analyzed the situation, his posture was a bit awkward.

Indecent, he caught the attention of everyone in the audience. Liu Yu nodded, turned to the other side with a slightly red face, and whispered: "Who is the enemy of that old guy, and also intends to compete for the ruling minister of your country."

"Of the six chief ministers in the country, Li Shigong has been stationed in Howling City in the north for a long time. Li Shicheng has barren land and is far away from Handan, so he has never wanted to compete for the position of the ruling minister.

Zhang Gu'an, the Duke of Changping, was located in the southwest border. The year before last, he angered the Han army. The Han army attacked Guanglang City and besieged Changping. It is said that more than 3,000 people died. Even Guanglang City was almost burned to the ground. It was because he used a large amount of cowhide

and copper coins to get the Han army to withdraw, but now his vitality was severely weakened. He sent envoys to Chang'an several times to apologize, but he had no intention of competing for the minister of power.

Yangyuan Gong Su Anping originally had the largest number of troops and was the most powerful. Many years ago, it was said that he commanded 30,000 men in the land of feudal lords and was proud of the rest. However, in the battle with the Zhongshan Kingdom six years ago, he suffered the greatest losses because his Yangyuan City was

At the forefront, to the west of Linshui, beyond Linshui is the Zhongshan Kingdom. It has not recovered in these years and is unable to compete for the power.

The Duke of Changning, Zhao Qing, is the current minister in power, and he cannot compete for it.

The only ones who are interested are the Duke of Maling, Mu Sheng, and the Duke of Wu'an, Sun Lin."

"Gongsun Lin?" Wang Jian read the name.

Sun Difang immediately explained: "Wu'an City is the closest to Handan. It has always defended the capital, is rich in copper mines, and has close relations with the royal family. The current wife of Marquis Wu'an is the sister of the current monarch."

Wang Jian thought for a moment: "Mr. Sun, please prepare a copy of the book for me and write it to Marquis Wu'an, explaining the situation here, and explaining to him that if King Zhao sits back and lets Mu Sheng win, his annexation of Heyang will greatly increase

With his strength, it will be very disadvantageous for him to elect the minister of power in two years."

Sun Difang nodded: "I'll do it right away when I get down the mountain."

"Although the army was not assembled quickly under the feudal system, it could not be delayed. All except the largest stone fort would be completed within fifteen days, allowing the soldiers to be stationed from the front camp to the rear fort.

Also prepare a fast horse for me, I will go to Sentinel Ridge tonight." Wang Jian ordered.

"How many personal soldiers do you need to bring?"

"No, I'll go by myself." Wang Jiandao, he was still thinking about the mysterious spirit liquid produced by the old willow tree.

"This Marquis is too dangerous."

"It's okay. Wu Yi and the others are already over there. It'll be okay. I've made up my mind and let's do it." Wang Jian waved his hand.
