Chapter 440 Old Bones
Yao Wenhua thought Wang Xiao would stay in Shanhaiguan for a while.
As an important gateway connecting the capital and Liaodong, Shanhaiguan is naturally extremely important.
When passing Shanhaiguan, Wang Xiao got off the carriage and horse, and took the horse seriously and looked around, but then he asked the team to continue moving without stopping.
Although Yao Wenhua was surprised, he was too lazy to ask more questions. He still half-closed his old eyes and leaned against the wall of the car and was drowsy.
He didn't ask, but someone asked.
Xia Xiangwei asked Wang Xiao: "The teacher needs to prepare for border defense, why don't he ignore Shanhaiguan?"
After Wang smiled, he sat back on the car and continued to read books immediately.
He frowned, looking "It's so difficult to learn".
"Well, you're here just right." Wang Xiao pointed to the book and asked, "What is this word?"
Xia Xiangwei looked closely and said, "Zhang refers to the threshold, which can also be interpreted as a general who leads troops outside, or can be understood as a woman's living room..."
After a series of explanations, Wang Xiao became a little angry and said, "It's so complicated?"
Xia Xiangwei looked at his book again and explained: "'Specialized officials'... The 未分类 here means 'women', which means women give orders. He implicitly mocked the court to send civil officials to patrol military affairs, and civil officials pointed at military generals like women."
As he said that, Xia Xiangwei smiled helplessly.
In this situation, the agreed master-apprentice relationship is obviously a bit wrong.
"Oh, then this word is used very well. The subtle relationship between civil and military affairs is very appropriate in an instant." Wang Xiao replied casually.
Xia Xiangwei said: "Jizhen Tongzhi? Are the teacher reading historical materials from Jizhen?"
Wang Xiao nodded and said, "You ask me why I didn't stop in Shanhai? I didn't stop in Funing and Dongsheng Zhuwei in the previous period. Because... they are all too bad."
"Also, Shanhaiguan is very important. But I found that I might have thought of it too much before, maybe because it has an extra 'icon' for me."
Xia Xiangwei asked, "What is iconic?"
"In the nine-sided system, this is the last defensive system to prevent Jiannu. Once Jiannu conquered the mountains and seas, our Chu Dynasty will be over." Wang smiled.
"But after reading these materials these days, I realized that what I originally understood was only a sign of Shanhaiguan. Jiannu did not have the only way to enter the pass. Xifengkou, Dushikou, Qingshankou, Xuanfu, and Datong on the Great Wall, can enter the pass everywhere. However, the combat power of the Eight Banners soldiers cannot last long and can only be dominated by plunder. At the same time, the Guanning defense line is still there, and Qin Chengye is still there in Liaodong, so they dare not fight for a long time."
"In fact, after leaving the various camps, gates, and garrisons in Liaodong, the strict military defense system that supports each other, Shanhaiguan is just a gate city. As long as Jiannu chooses to enter the pass from Shanhaiguan, it means that Liaodong has been lost, and it is a foregone conclusion that they will defeat the Shanhaiguan defense line. The key is Ji and Liao."
"This is like... the doors and windows of the Chu Dynasty. Liao is the door and Ji is the window. We have an enemy who gets up from the window from time to time to come to us. In this process, he gradually becomes stronger and we gradually become weak. When he feels that the time is up, he breaks the door and enters in one fell swoop... By the time, Shanhaiguan will be just a '阿' and a threshold."
Xia Xiangwei asked, "Is the teacher going to Liaodong now that he wants to close the doors and windows?"
Wang Xiao lifted the curtain and looked at the majestic Yanshan Mountains in the distance, and sighed in his heart.
"Until now, I finally live as a papermaker..."
Some people want to repair this dilapidated house in the Chu Dynasty, while others want to remove it and rebuild it... These are not problems.
The broken house is dilapidated and stormy. There are problems with the house in the house and tigers and wolves outside the house.
The young man pushed open the house and looked around the broken house, intending to try to repair the doors and windows and fences first...
He took the hammer and knocked down the first nail on the window, Lu Longwei was the first nail.
With a loud "creaking", the broken windows were shaking.
"this……"
"Then, change the window."
Yao Wenhua was still drowsy. He didn't understand what kind of anxiety was hidden under Wang Xiao's calmness on the surface, and Yao Wenhua didn't want to understand it either.
At this time, they had left Shanhaiguan and passed the Qiantun Guard of Guangning. The team suddenly turned around and walked northwest around the Yanshan Mountains.
When Yao Wenhua opened his eyes again, he saw Wang Xiao sitting in his carriage with a smile on his face.
"The Marquis has something to do to find me?" Yao Wenhua yawned.
"Mr. Yao get out of the car. We have to change horses and march quickly."
Yao Wenhua was stunned and said in surprise: "What?"
Wang Xiao spread out a map and pointed to it and said, "We are going north through this Great Wall..."
Yao Wenhua was shocked and said, "Then... is the sphere of influence of the Duoyan tribe!"
"Yes, then we have to borrow Mongolia and enter the plug from the mouth of Xifeng!" Wang Xiao waved his hand and said excitedly: "Let's see, what is the real defense system in Jizhen?"
"Are you sick?!" Yao Wenhua blurted out.
This is the first time he has been so disobedient in the court for more than 40 years.
This kind of thing is not a joke.
Wang Xiao said, "Yes, I'm sick."
He said, and pulled Yao Wenhua up and pulled him out of the carriage.
Yao Wenhua looked around and was shocked again.
I saw that there were mountains outside the carriage and horses, with a winding mountain road ahead, and a ravine cliff below.
"This...what is this? Why are we here?"
When he saw it again, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Why are there so many more people?"
"I have asked three thousand soldiers to go around Shanhaiguan by boat, and have been waiting for Lord Yao here for a long time..."
Three thousand cavalrymen were ready to go, led by Liu Yigu, shouting: "We are here for a long time!"
Yao Wenhua's expression changed, she was shocked, angry and scared, and her heart was mixed.
Wang Xiao turned his head and ordered Geng Zhengbai again: "Continue to lead the carriage and horses to the east and walk slowly. If there is an official receptionist, let He Boyong come forward, I will not be exposed."
"yes!"
The carriage turned around, including Yao Wenhua's comfortable carriage, the "clean carriage", and his servants.
Yao Wenhua felt that half of his life had left him...
"Please get on the horse, Lord Yao." Wang Xiao said, holding his trembling body and pushing him onto the horse.
The saddle is very uncomfortable and the mood is very sad.
Yao Wenhua took a deep breath and thought to himself that this handful of old bones would be dying on the road.
"Set off!"
Wang Xiao shouted loudly, and three thousand cavalry lined up and slowly walked around the Yanshan Mountains along the winding mountain path...
This journey is not easy, and sometimes you have to get off your horse and walk.
When he led the horse through some cliffs, Yao Wenhua deeply felt that he would fall down if he accidentally did.
After finally passing the cliff, his feet trembled, his eyes turned dark and he fainted.
"Ah, sir, you need to exercise more..."
Someone exclaimed in his ear.
When Yao Wenhua opened his eyes again, he saw that he was being placed on the horse, and the Great Wall had arrived in front of him.
The group of men took out signaling, passed through the castle, and controlled the defenders not to leak information.
Afterwards, after passing the Great Wall, we arrived at Kalaqin's territory.
This place belongs to the Daling River Basin. When the Chu Dynasty founded, the Daning Metropolitan Command was established here and given three tribes to Wulianghai, which belonged to the Duoyanwei nomadic land.
Now, Duoyanwei has been renamed Kalaqin.
In the third year of Yanguang in Chu, Subudi, the Kalaqin tribe led his troops to surrender to the Later Jin Dynasty; in the eighth year of Yanguang, Huang Taiji demarcated the pastures of Mongolian tribes, and the pastures of Kalaqin were fixed.
In other words, this place is the sphere of influence of the Mongolian tribe, and it is also the sphere of influence of Jiannu.
Yao Wenhua immediately became nervous...
