Chapter 508 Chang'an event
"The Yumen Pass Battle has lost at least 200,000 troops, and one general has achieved success and has thousands of bones blew."
Wang Jian led his troops to clean up the battlefield, buried the Qin soldiers who died in battle, and erected stone tablets. Seeing the ground full of corpses, the strong smell of blood could not dissipate for a long time, he couldn't help but feel silent.
The Western Regions army also suffered similar casualties. A total of hundreds of thousands of soldiers on both sides died here and were buried by wind and sand.
The Huns killed three Shanyu, and the Turks killed two Khans, the commander of thousands and the commander of ten thousand men and thousands of men. Alexander's royal army also killed and injured the attendants and generals including Dmitry.
On the Qin army, more than a dozen generals, including Meng Wu, died on the battlefield and were covered with corpses.
Fu Jian's Qiang, Di army, and the leaders of six tribes were killed.
The two camps fought at Yumen Pass, but the final result was that both sides suffered losses...
Alexander was arranged by Qin Wang Zheng and Xu Fu, and failed to attack Yumen Pass. He was recaptured from Shazhou and Guazhou, and his prestige was greatly reduced.
What worries Alexander the most was that in the fierce battle of Yumen Pass, Alexander's most respected silver shield soldiers and king cavalry were severely damaged. In this way, Alexander did not have enough Macedonian soldiers and Greek soldiers to conquer the soldiers recruited in the East, and his rule was not stable.
Due to heavy losses, the Qin army was sleeping again, and was unable to continue chasing Alexander, Maodun, Asunatus and others. Moreover, the Qin army had to be guarded against threats from Guanzhong.
"In the first battle, hundreds of thousands of people were killed or injured, which was really shocking..."
Fu Jian was shocked when he saw the battlefield of Yumen Pass everywhere.
"This is a chaotic world. For the sake of the present, only by pacifying the world as soon as possible can more people survive."
Seeing that the Qin army had dug hundreds of people traps, Wang Meng could not help but shake his head when he saw that the Qin army had dug hundreds of people traps, so he barely buried the dead on the battlefield of Yumen Pass.
"My father, no matter what, the child must avenge you!"
Meng Tian, with the Golden Fire Cavalry, swears to the sky in front of Meng Wu's tomb.
Meng Wu was beheaded by Alexander, and Meng Tian and Alexander were irreconcilable.
This beam has been considered a foregone conclusion.
Guanzhong, Chang'an City, and Zhang Hua handled the internal affairs of various places, organized refugees to reclaim farmland and build water conservancy.
Guo Shoujing, a minister and scientist of the Yuan Dynasty, built the Zhengguo Canal in Guanzhong a long time ago, and at this time, the Zhengguo Canal was finally completed!
Because of Zhengguo Canal, Guanzhong added one million mu of irrigable fertile land to feed more people.
Zhang Hua also ordered Guo Shoujing to build other canals in Guanzhong, completely turning Guanzhong into a granary.
Chencang, Qishan, Fufeng, Meiyuan and other places in Guanzhong are also actively opening up new farmlands.
When Zhang Hua was using troops, he still did not forget to farm and increase grain output.
Frequent use of troops in various places will cause considerable consumption of food and grass. If the food and grass are not continued, the soldiers and soldiers ahead will be shaken and will undoubtedly be defeated.
"This year's winter solstice, the fourth imperial examination will be held as scheduled, and the Chang'an event held by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was held to attract literati and poets to enhance the influence and cultural prosperity of Chang'an City."
While using troops and farming, Zhang Hua did not forget the literary and military rituals held every year.
Zhang Hua imitated Emperor Xuanzong of Tang and prepared to hold a Chang'an event during the imperial examination to attract literati and poets, and enhance the cultural prosperity of the territory.
A city with higher cultural prosperity will be easier to produce talents from all aspects, which is crucial to the future of the dynasty.
Not only that, literati such as Yu Youwei, Li Bai, Du Mu, Wang Changling, Luo Guanzhong, and Ouyang Xiu were all in Zhang Hua's territory.
News of Zhang Hua's order to prepare for the Chang'an event and the imperial examination spread, and hundreds of cities in Zhang Hua's territory were alarmed!
Participating in the imperial examinations will give you the opportunity to be a general and a prime minister. The Chang'an event is a gathering of literati from all dynasties. If you have the opportunity to meet the king Zhang Hua in person, you may be able to enter the official career directly.
"Is Chang'an event..."
Li Bai traveled to Xuchang and learned that Zhang Hua planned to hold a Chang'an event and imperial examination on the winter solstice. He couldn't help but want to make friends with literati from all dynasties and dynasties.
After Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was under house arrest, Li Bai had been traveling around and occasionally intervened in battles everywhere.
At this time, Li Bai thought of Zhang Hua holding a Chang'an event, and maybe there was a beautiful woman and a good wine, so he became interested and decided to return to Chang'an City.
"This trip is to Chang'an, maybe you can see Li Taibai."
In Daliang City, a poet saw the notice of the Chang'an event posted by the government and knew that Li Bai would join in the fun, so he also set off and headed for Chang'an City.
Xiacheng, a poor literati wearing patched cotton coat, saw the notice from the Chang'an Festival and said to himself: "Maybe one day, someone will appreciate my talent. But before that, maybe this is an opportunity..."
In Chang'an City, the talented girl Yu Youwei sat and watched the clouds rise and fall, and the flowers bloom and faded. When she learned that Zhang Hua wanted to imitate Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, she held a grand ceremony of literati in Chang'an City and recruited literati from all dynasties, and became interested.
In Zhanghua's territory, literati from all dynasties began to meet with Chang'an City because of the Chang'an event.
In Bianzhou, Zhuge Liang joined forces with the Six Armies to prepare for food, grass and supplies, and prepare to attack the Liang Kingdom, one of the Shandong countries.
Zhang Hua sent civil and military officials and generals such as Ma Liang, Zhao Yun, Wang Ping, and Meng Huo to assist Zhuge Liang in conquering the Liang Kingdom.
Mulan led a team of Iron Eagle Scouts to serve as the military supervisor, supervise the military affairs of the Central Plains and Shandong.
"Zhuge Liang..."
Meng Huo was in a complicated mood when he saw the young Zhuge Liang.
Meng Huo was defeated many times by Zhuge Liang who pacified the Southern Middle School, and was deeply ashamed of playing with him.
However, after meeting Zhang Hua, Meng Huo believed that Zhuge Liang was much more kind.
Zhang Hua sent out powerful generals in a row. Within a day, he beat Meng Huo many times and almost killed Meng Huo alive. His methods were even more fierce than Zhuge Liang's seven captures and seven plunders.
Only with comparison can there be a gap.
"Ji Chang, come and help me, my chances of winning are at least 20% more."
Zhuge Liang did not seem to see Meng Huo, but held Ma Liang's hand, spoke earnestly, and had a high evaluation of Ma Liang, knowing that Ma Liang has the special ability to write brilliantly.
Ma Liang said modestly: "With Kong Ming, your ability is enough to deal with most situations. I hope I can help you."
Meng Huo took the initiative to move forward: "Hey, I, Meng Huo, have a lot of brute force, if I don't give up..."
"You are Zhao Zilong, Changshan?"
Zhuge Liang directly ignored Meng Huo and was deeply interested in Zhao Yun, one of the five tiger generals.
Among the countries in Shandong, there are powerful generals such as Wang Yanzhang and Shu Lianghe. Zhuge Liang needs to rely on the courage of powerful generals such as Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan and Cheng Yaojin.
"Don't underestimate people!"
Meng Huo was annoyed.
He thought he was his old enemy with Zhuge Liang, but Zhuge Liang did not think that Meng Huo was his old enemy...
"Meng Huo, your Wudang Feijun, just follow Wang Ping's orders."
Zhuge Liang did not think that Meng Huo was capable of being the leader of the whole line. The leader of Wudang Feijun was still Wang Ping of Shu Han.
Although Meng Huo was angry, he was still timid in the face of Zhuge Liang.
Zhao Yun was also on the side. If Meng Huo didn't want to be a sandbag, he could only obey the orders.
"Fan Zeng of Western Chu is attacking Qi State and sent Zhao Kuangyin to attack Lu State. Fan Zeng is determined to win the Shandong countries. This time he is conquering Shandong countries. It seems that he will defeat Zhao Kuangyin and Fan Zeng..."
"Qi State was the territory of Jiang Xiaobai, one of the five hegemons of the Spring and Autumn Period. It was bordered by the sea and produced sea salt. It was quite rich, with no less than 300,000 troops, so Fan Zeng had to concentrate his troops and annex Qi State. Lu State was not a simple vassal state. With Duke Zhuang of Lu and Confucius in charge, his influence should not be underestimated."
"Our top priority should be to defeat Liang State as soon as possible and to prevent the Song army from annexing Lu State."
"In other words, it can be understood that we and the Chu army are competing for the population of Shandong countries."
"The countries in Shandong may also take advantage of this opportunity to rise and become overlords."
Zhuge Liang explained the situation here a little to the arrival of Mulan, Zhao Yun, Wang Ping and other military generals.
Mulan nodded: "Well, we should send troops to capture Liang State as soon as possible. Can we win a surprise attack?"
Li Ji interrupted: "The surprise attack is not feasible. The spys laid by Liu Xiu, the general of Liang State, already knew that our Bianzhou had hoarded troops, horses, food and grass, and were ready to use troops. This person used troops with one step and was not easy to win. Not only that, the Liang army had withdrawn from Lu State and built eleven barriers near Yunzhou, linked together."
"They want to clear the wilderness and strengthen the walls and wait for their hard work?"
Mulan's various abilities are growing, and she has already understood the thoughts of Zhu Wen, the king of Houliang.
The main city of Liang State was Yunzhou. Zhu Wen personally took charge of Yunzhou and sent wise generals Liu Xiu, powerful general Wang Yanzhang and others to build barriers near Yunzhou. Obviously, he wanted to stick to it for a long time and then wait for an opportunity to repel the invading Xia army.
Li Ji continued: "Fortunately, Qi and Lu are not weak vassal states. They can attack Liang and Chu, but they are not destroyed. This means that Qi and Lu can hold on for at least a period of time. Next, it depends on who can win faster by our Xia army and Fan Zeng's Chu army."
"Zhu Wen, Liang State..."
Zhou Shizong Chai Rong was the last king of the Five Dynasties. He had heard of the reputation of Zhu Wen, the first king of the Five Dynasties. It was Zhu Wen, who participated in the Huang Chao Uprising, who destroyed the Tang Dynasty and established the Houliang.
When fighting with Zhu Wen, Chai Rong also wants to see Zhu Wen's abilities.
Zhuge Liang said, "Three days later, all the food, grass and supplies will be collected, and six groups of troops will officially capture the countries in Shandong. Yu Qian is in charge of Bianzhou, Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda are responsible for transporting grain."
