Chapter 314: Crossing Mountains and Crossing Rivers
Mangdang Mountain is thousands of miles from east to west, and the narrowest part between north and south is seventy miles.At that time, Emperor Taizong ordered to build a road in the mountains, and the Ministry of Industry sent people to go to Mangdang Mountain for a year before choosing this place.Although it is not the narrowest place, the mountain is the slowest, and there is a broken gorge that can be used, saving a lot of labor.
Even so, it took so long for 200,000 migrant workers to gather here to open the mountain road.To commemorate the opening of this mountain road, officials of the Ministry of Industry built a mountain platform at the foot of the mountain with the stones and trees picked when the mountain was opened.The platform is one mile round and made of large stone barriers. The platform is flat and vast, and there is also a mountain-watching palace.
The bricks and stones picked from the mountain were all used to build the Kaishan Terrace. This incident once provokes people who came to Yushitai to participate in impeachment for a while, but the Emperor Taizong did not care about it at the time. , Ascend the Kaishan Terrace, where you can see the magnificent scene of the army passing the mountain road.
General Xiao Xiao led the army through Mangdang Mountain, mounted the stern warship on the banks of the Yangtze River, and defeated the navy naval commander who claimed to be the strongest in the world. Boiling soup and pouring snow in general, the southern army was beaten without any trace of strength.
When the team passed the Kaishan Terrace, Fang Jie couldn't help but stop.
Although he had seen it once in the distance yesterday, he glanced a few times and didn't look carefully.Today, standing under this open mountain and looking up, I truly felt the vastness of the project.A giant platform about one mile in length and width, and three meters in height, is not easy to build.
Looking up at this high platform, Fang Xie couldn't help but imagine the picture of the two hundred thousand people opening the mountain.From Mangdang Mountain to here, there is a dense team of civilian husbands as ants move.Relying on their arms and shoulders, they dug out the mountain abruptly and then moved down to build the platform.
More than 100 years have passed, the majestic Kaishan platform has been mottled, the platform is covered with green grass, and even a few trees are already very thick.Fang Xie walked slowly along the stone steps to the platform, standing on the side of the platform and looking at the towering mountains not far away.
Perhaps the Emperor Taizong was standing here, watching the male soldiers under his hand through the mountains with an unstoppable power, sweeping Jiangnan.
This stand is very low compared to Dashan, but standing on the top of Kaishan stand suddenly has a grand feeling that the world is in my hands.This kind of feeling makes people feel very excited, and even has the urge to shout loudly.
It was at this moment that Fang Jie suddenly found that he liked this feeling very much.
In front of his eyes, there seemed to be a team of male soldiers striding forward.He saw the endless team, the battle flag swept by the clouds, the long jungle like the steel jungle, and the unusually solid chariot although it was a little bulky.In a trance, he even saw a very special team in that magnificent army.They wore heavy armor, armed with strange swords, and escorted a huge chariot with 99 horses.On the large and luxurious seat above the car, there was a man wearing gold armor.
The man didn't know why he looked so familiar.
He saw the pride on the faces of all the soldiers, and their eyes were firm and fierce.Along the mountain road, a long-long team passed through Mangdang Mountain and went northward.
Northward?
Fang Jie stunned, rubbing his eyes subconsciously.
Where there is an endless army in front of me, where there is a long war-like banner like a forest, and there is no need for 99 horse-drawn carts, naturally there is no general Golden Armor.The mountain road is still empty, with nothing.It turned out that the immense army of black armor and the vigorous marching drums were all fantasized by myself.
Huaiqiu Gong, who was helped to walk up to the platform, just saw his surprised expression, and couldn't help but smiled and said, "I'm feeling the grandness of building a platform by building a mountain road?"
Fang Jie smiled, concealing his doubts and confusion.
"Yeah ... It is only in our Da Sui that such miraculous works can be carried out. Standing here, I can't help thinking about the scene of sending troops to the south of the year. Hundreds of thousands of troops marched forward through the mountains After the turmoil, the situation is like breaking through the bamboos and ruining Jiangnan. "
Huaiqiu Gong nodded and said, "I went to Beijing to take the exam, and I was shocked when I saw this mountain and platform for the first time from here. No one would believe it if it was not seen with my own eyes. It was created by manpower. From this mountain repair, you can see the determination and courage of the Emperor Taizong's southern expedition. "
"With such determination and courage, the decayed Southern Dynasty did not have any resistance at all."
He pointed in the direction of the mountain road: "In those days, I was walking on that road on my own. I was alone, without a companion. I came out of the house a year in advance, and I walked to dozens of pairs of shoes before I went to the Imperial Capital. Think about it. It seems that for so many years, I have only been back to my hometown twice, and one of them still acted on purpose. "
Listening to his emotions, Fang Jie echoed two sentences.
But in his mind, still the picture of the illusion before.
Who is that endless army?Who is the General Golden Armor sitting on the huge chariot drawn by ninety-nine horses?
...
...
"I used to go north from the south, but now go south from the north. The road is still the same, and the mountain is still this mountain. This mountain platform does not seem to have changed, but people have been so old that they have even walked. Now. "
Huai Qiugong said with emotion.
Fang Xie shook his head and shook the confused thoughts in his head.He knew the hallucinations in his mind just now, but it was because of the Kaishantai because of this Mangdangshan because of the great war of that year.At that time, the North and South dynasties were opposed, and Dazheng in the north and Nanchen in the south were opposed for hundreds of years. No one can help but because of the Yangtze River.Later, Emperor Taizu of Sui Dynasty defeated Zheng and established Sui Dynasty.Emperor Taizong tried his best to rule, and finally wiped out the Southern Dynasty.
Such a magnificent past inevitably makes people feel emotional.
"Let's go"
Fang Xie shook his head and smiled: "When I return from the Southwest, I will go this way again, and then go on this stage to see if I have a nostalgic mood."
Huai Qiugong laughed: "When you were young, you would walk back and forth from this road, your mood will not change."
Fang Xie smiled and said: "Yes, I will be back in a few months at most."
I don't know why, Ye Jinnan kept silent.Hearing Huai Qiugong talking with Fang Jie, his face changed slightly.Standing behind Fang Jie, he stared at this young and promising man with a very complicated look in his eyes, unable to understand.
Everyone re-entered the road, passing the place where Fang Jie snatched Lu Ou. Fang Jie deliberately opened the curtain and looked out. He found that there was no trace of cleanness on the official road. He smiled involuntarily.Huai Qiugong saw him laughing and couldn't help but ask: "What makes you happy?"
Fang Jie shook his head slightly: "It's nothing, just feel that this mountain view makes people feel comfortable."
Huai Qiugong knew he didn't tell the truth, but it was not good to ask again.
In fact, Fang Xie laughed because he knew he was still following others behind him.He killed Lu Ou, even the five arrows shot the five bosses, and then another arrow shot the dead horse pulling the cart.The corpses and the remains of the carriage were gone.Therefore, Fang Jie concluded that the emperor also sent others to follow him. This is obviously the emperor's distrust of him, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for Fang Jie, at least ... someone wipes his ass.
He knew that the emperor was a person whom no one could believe, and this was a qualified emperor.
The convoy crossed Mangdang Mountain and reached the bank of the Yangtze River in the afternoon.This is the first time Fang Jie saw this big river. At that time, he went from Dali City in Nanyan to Fangu in the northwest of the Sui Dynasty.This big river, also called the Yangtze River, is as wide as the Yangtze River seen in the previous life of Xie Jie, even wider than the Yangtze River in the previous life. There is a light layer of water vapor on the channel, so it is impossible to see the other side of the river at a glance.
When you get here, you will be separated, Huai Qiugong goes east, and Fang Xie goes west.
The water in this section is quite gentle and it is a big ferry.It is said that the upstream waterway is slightly narrower, but the water flow is so fast that ordinary boats cannot cross it.
Fang Jie They took a large ship with a length of 70 meters, which was a Guandu ship.There are two types of ferry boats in general ferries, one is the official ferry, the ship is large and stable and the charges are not high.But because there are too many pedestrians, it is not possible to rely on Guandu alone.So there are many fishermen ferrying here. Their boat is small, but the boat is fast, so they do n’t have to wait for the full maneuver like an official boat.
Almost all the people on the banks of the Yangtze River are good sailors.Letting them cross the river by boat is as simple as letting Mongolian people ride horses.
Once here, it would be useless to understand their carriage.On the other side of the river, local officials will naturally prepare the carriage again.Therefore, only personnel are required to board the ship, and there are about a hundred people in the party.Especially the fifty or so flying fish robes made the people fear.
The ship was ordered by the government, and it was here to wait for the boss to send him.Fang Jie started as soon as they got on the boat, but Fang Jie stopped it and let the people waiting on the shore also get on the boat.Such a big boat pulls these people, let those people wait for the official ship to come back, they can't bear it.
Ye Jinnan heard Fang Jie's command and couldn't help but his eyes changed, and there was appreciation inside.
"General"
A close soldier approached him and said in a low voice: "I have inquired on the shore. No one has seen General Lu boarding the ship ... According to the principle, they should be very eye-catching, and no one can see it."
Hearing this sentence, Ye Jinnan frowned immediately.
"Don't mention it to anyone ... After returning to Yongzhou, if someone asks about General Lu ... that the ferry encountered wind and waves, and General Lu unfortunately fell into the river!"
"but……"
The soldier immediately stopped Ye Jinnan when he was about to speak: "No! But if I let anyone know that someone dared to say something, I would blame me for not feeling old! This is the case, whoever asks it is like this, and I need to say it again Once again! "
