8. Wandering around the road
At the critical moment, it was Jia Dan, the governor of Shandong Dongdao, and Cao Wanggao, the governor of Jingnan, who insisted on his own opinion and persuaded Han Huan's escort officer to temporarily stop the ship in Xiangyang City.
Both Jia Dan and Cao Wanggao agreed to mobilize their manpower and financial resources within their jurisdiction, prepare water and land passages, repair inns, and ensure the smooth flow of the southeast wealth transfer road.
So now Jia Dan wrote a letter asking Gao Yue to join the "Transportation Relay Race" that is always fought for every second!
Gao Yue did not dare to neglect at all. He hurriedly took out the "Longyou Mountain South Map" given to him by Mr. Jia. Now he asked the officials in the mansion to enlarge it and draw it on a large scroll of paper on it.
Then the Baicao Army and the military and political system of Xingyuan Prefecture gathered together, "Fan Ze, the Jin Shang Defense Envoy appointed by the court, has not yet taken office, and most of the Shangzhou has been trapped in the hands of Li Xilie. Now General Li Xilie Feng Youlin has occupied Deng, Shang, and all the three states, and Wuguan Road is in trouble. We can't wait for Fan Ze, so we must first dispatch the Baicao Army and search the entire army and the entire prefecture for war horses, ten pack horses and mules, and first transport the batch of rice and grain and light goods sent by Han Huan to Xingyuan Prefecture by land from Shangjin Road!"
"That's the clearance of Baoxiu Water?"
Gao Yue waved his hand and said that he didn't have to think about it for the time being. "After arriving in Xingyuan Prefecture, he did not take the Baoxi Road, but transported it to Xingzhou by land by land, and then along the Western Han River, Wei Gao's jurisdiction, and transported it to Fengxiang Prefecture and Fengtian City."
This is really as Liu Yan expected, even if it is worth it to use ten jin of coins to transport a dou of rice.
The emperor's various soldiers and horses in Fengtian City are really waiting for food in Baba!
Gao Yue did what he said, and immediately chased three thousand white grass army. He immediately ascended to the altar of worship and said to the soldiers:
"You and Baicao are all your princes. I took you to Shu to quell the rebellion, and everyone received a generous amount of money from the army. It shows that I was counted when I was in Baoyan Mountain before!
Look at the food and clothing of your family, are you getting richer and richer? That is because we have been loyally following Your Majesty for the past two or three years. But now Your Majesty is in Fengtian City and will not let you wait for the king to be hungry until it is frozen, but he is running it miserably. His letter to you earlier said that now in late spring, he is still eating old rice in the city and wearing winter fur!”
"Your Majesty!" Guo Zaizhen, the Marquis of Yu in the Baicao Army, took the lead in moving his feelings, looked at the direction where Fengtian was in the north, and pounded his chest and started crying.
Then the soldiers of the Baicao Army, regardless of the origin of the Fan Han Dynasty, cried one after another, and cried around the altar.
"Now, 100,000 stones of rice have come to the southeast, but the original old road has been blocked by the traitors in Huaixi. I can only walk on the Jin Road to deposit gold and foreign land, and then come to our Xingyuan Mansion! My sons, what do you think?"
"When you pull mules and horses, you must carry them with your feet and shoulders, and you must transport these rice!" Gao Gu, who was beside Gao Yue, was covered with armor, raised his fists, widened his eyes, and responded sternly.
"I dare not refuse!" The three thousand white grass children also waved their fists.
Then, the entire Xingyuan Prefecture City was mobilized inside and outside, and war horses and pack horses were pulled out, and people also began to requisition civilian pack beasts, whether they were mules, donkeys, or even cows, all of them were loaded with various vehicles and prepared to go out of the city to pick up rice and grain from Shangjin Road.
But when Gao Yue returned to the mansion, he thought about the food and miscellaneous rewards of the Baicao Army soldiers. He mobilized the slogans and mobilized the slogans, but the soldiers were not wooden people. If they had no money or food to reward, even if they were closest to him, they would probably have to make trouble.
"Stopping some of the rice and grain as a reward." Gao Yue finally said, and gave the actual amount. After the 100,000 shi of rice arrived at the Chiyaku in Xingyuan Prefecture, he wanted to cut off 15,000 shi, that is, each Baicao child who went to the service was given five shi of rice.
Liu Deshi was trembling and said that this was not good!
"There is no way. Xingyuan Prefecture now has 6,000 more Baicao Army to eat granaries. The farming field has not yet become a climate, and the burden of rice and grain is also heavy. I believe Your Majesty will understand it." Gao Yue thought to himself that Bao Ji, the previous transferee of Biandong, had all five million knots of money and silk, was intercepted, what was the amount of rice and grain I cut off?
After the calculation, Guo Zaizhen and Liu Deshi stayed in the city. The chief Wei Ping is still running in Fengtian. Xingyuan conveys the message that Gao Yue, Gao Gu and Cai Fengyuan personally escorted the formation to supervise the three thousand Baicao soldiers, and bring all the carrying animals and vehicles toward Shangjin in a mighty manner.
Before Gao Yue could even say goodbye to his wife, he swayed on the horse's back and embarked on the journey without hesitation.
Cai Fengyuan, who followed him, now read a few words and used a short pen to record the mileage along the way:
Fifty miles west of Xingyuan Prefecture, passing Chenggu;
Chenggu continued to travel seventy miles to Xingdao County, Yangzhou. Soon Hou Lan, the governor of Yangzhou, led three hundred prefectures to unite his children and more than a hundred mules and horses, and rushed here from Xixiang County, the State Council, to wait here and join Gao Yue's ranks;
From Xingdao County, we walked 67 miles to Raofeng Pass, which connects the five thousand miles of Qin and Chu, and the mountain roads up and down Raofeng Ridge were 30 miles away. The stone paths were lingering, and the men and horses were connected in a line, endless. The pass was previously set up by Liu Yan's suggestion, and Gao Yue left some soldiers and horses here to continue on the road;
After another sixty miles, we arrived at Shiquan County, at the junction of Jinzhou and Jinzhou. It rained again, and the people were walking in the rain. After the sky cleared, we passed Fangshan Pass 60 miles away, and the road was clear and spacious. After thirty-two miles, we arrived at Hanyin County, and then we walked 180 miles to Jinzhou Liaison Xicheng County, Hanyin and Xicheng County, and the county magistrates of the two counties also led more than a thousand unites. The civilians brought pack horses to welcome the union;
From Xicheng County to the Han River, it travels 120 miles east to Xunyang County. It is named after the Xunshui River in the north of this county. From Xunyang to Huangtu County, there is the Yueyi Shenggongguan in Jiming Mountain, north of Huangtu County, and Gao Yue also left some troops here.
Finally, he turned from the Shenggongguan to the northeast, traveled a hundred miles by land, and finally arrived at Shangjinbao.
The whole journey is about 800 miles, spanning the four prefectures of Xingyuan, Yang, Jin and Shang. It passes through the second pass and passes through the three rivers.
After arriving at Shangjin Fort, Gao Yue stood on his horse and saw that the scenery on the north side of Shangjin was vast and blue-black valleys. After climbing these mountains, passing Manchuan Pass was the Shanyang boundary of Shangzhou. The winding Jia River passed by the fort and poured into the Han River south.
In other words, Shangjin Fort itself does not rely on the Han River, and it is still a long distance away.
But as Jia Dan said, the fleet could not directly pass through the Han River and transport supplies to Xingyuan Mansion.
Why?
Because the Han River passes in the south of Yunxiang, Junzhou, southeast of Shangjin Fort, there are two beaches the most dangerous place. The entire Han River is blocked from the route from Xingyuan to Xiangyang due to this infarction.
Therefore, after Han Huan's entrusted ship arrived in Xiangyang, Jia Dan, first traveled 360 miles from the Han River to the Transportation Courtyard in Yunxiang, and then transported it to Shangjin Fort on the land. Then, from Shangjin Road and along the various journeys when Gao Yue came to Xingyuan Prefecture.
"It's really twists and turns!" Gao Yue was also exhausted by the eight hundred miles of journey and leaned on the saddle, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Chapter completed!
