The General of Wujing General records: Dingchuanzhai, the Hulu River and the Great River in the north are controlled by the Hulu River and entered the Tiandu Mountains in the west, and it is the robbery road. It reaches Weizhou in the east forty miles, about five hundred miles to Lanzhou in the west, thirty miles to Jiansheng Pass in the south, and about three hundred miles to Guhuizhou in the north.

The northwest Sichuan Road is the only way to the west of Tiandu Mountain. The river road is 30 miles upwards. The river road is Zhenqiang Village. It travels 70 miles southwards through Zhangyi Fort and leads to Langgan City, forty miles away from Zhenrong Army. There is Shangdianzi River on the west side and the Yikou River in the southeast. The two rivers meet in the north of Shanzui and pour into the Qingshui River through the Gaoping River. The ancient city is built on Shanzui, facing a cliff in the east, facing a ditch in the west, and connected to the mountains in the south. The strategic geographical location is very important, controlling the throat of the road invading the east of the Xixia road.

Unfortunately, Liang Chuan didn't know that he was Dingchuan Village at this time. If he knew it was this hell on earth, Liang Chuan would never come to this dangerous place even if he killed Dong Xing. In the near future, the Song army generals suffered a humiliating third defeat here, and the generals were killed and injured. The Song Dynasty saw that it was better to lose than defeat, so he finally swallowed his breath to negotiate peace with Xixia.

Yelu Chongguang and his party had more than 20 people who wanted to go to the city to rest, but the Song army guarding Guyuan City was afraid of the fine works of the Western thieves dressed up as merchants and civilians to enter the city to respond, and they were extremely strict in checking the bulk teams. People in the northwest were running out. Except for the people who were licking blood on the knife, who would come here to make some hard-earned money? Who would come here to visit and enjoy the scenery?

The group simply refused to go to the city, and by the way, they also inquire about the situation around them, preparing to escape from here in the future.

Don’t laugh at me when you are drunk on the battlefield. How many people have returned from war since ancient times?

There has never been a long love between children in the northwest, only tragic and majestic, arrogant and lonely. The Gobi Desert is connected to the desert, the sea breeze is yellow and sunny, the mountains are cut by axe and knife, and the water is sobbing silently, which is different from the south of the Yangtze River and very different from the northern country.

Extreme environments are the most effective way to train people's will. Everyone is black and red, with cracked skin and dry lips. The prisoners in Fengshan County prison live better than here, at least they look better than those here.

After Dong Qian and the others exchanged Liang Chuan for the delivery documents, they slipped back to Bianjing without looking back. They didn't need to wear shackles when they were sent here. The official army was not afraid of prisoners going to escape. The radius of hundreds of miles was full of troops fighting on the front line. It was impossible for strangers to sneak in. There were wild wolves and venomous snakes everywhere in the wild. If they didn't bring their dry food for ten days and half a month, it would be harder than climbing to the sky.

Liang Chuan, Guyuan City, was naturally not qualified to stay there. After receiving the documents clearly, Liang Chuan was immediately assigned to Dingchuan Village. Before leaving, Liang Chuan didn't know that the ghost place he was coming to was this ghost place.

Build the city wall.

Two soldiers rushed Liang Chuan to Dingchuan Village. The south side of Guyuan was the north side of the mountain, but the flat mountain was the same as the gate of Guyuan. The city gate of Guyuan was also open on the facade, and after the north gate, there was a large area of ​​farmland.

"Why are there so much farmland here? Aren't the people running away?"

Brother Qiu Ba is not old and looks younger than Liang Chuan. However, the ring is so powerful that he can train people and his mind matures quickly.

After a fight, no matter how young a child is, he will no longer shed tears, but blood.

Only blood and fire can best temper human will!

The two of them each carried a wooden gun about the same length as others, and in a Shaanxi accent that was the same as Fan Dianyuan, they gave Liang Chuan a blank look: "You said you, those who are innocent and cruel to the heavens, will not chop off your heads and send them to us to take care of you. What did you do?"

"Enter the Imperial Land."

"Invade the Emperor?"

The two couldn't help but look at Liang Chuan more and came to the same conclusion in their hearts: this person is sick.

Liangchuan was very curious when he saw the large area of ​​farmland. It was not impossible to grow food in the northwest. On the contrary, the northwest is known as the Jiangnan in the Fortress. It was just that the farming season was missed because of the war. Otherwise, it would be the best paradise for ordinary people to live and work in peace and contentment. There was too much land and it was all fertile land. Most of the fertile land allowed cattle and sheep to take advantage of it. I was afraid that people would not be diligent enough and not afraid that they would not be able to grow enough.

The older brother Qiu Ba also had a golden seal on his face. Seeing that Liang Chuan was not too perverted and had not spoken for too long, he chatted: "Our Zhenrong Army court allocated 400,000 shi of military rations every year, and dozens of fortresses and tea and salt taxes cost more than 500,000 qian. The other losses were not calculated yet. The court had a very slight remark on this. For example, when the fight started before the New Year, the soldiers from nearby prefectures and counties gathered in this northwest, and there were no millions of qians to fight. If we don't plant some food and rely on the court to raise us every day, we would starve to death."

"The Zhenrong Army is only tens of thousands of soldiers. Is 400,000 stones a year not enough to eat?"

The young man looked like a brother, and the two said angrily: "As soon as these dog officials and generals got their rations, they were transported to the outside of the city and sold them secretly with the Hanshui merchants. Why do you know why so many people outside the city follow the army? Just make this money, the grain they purchased is lower than the market price, and they colluded with the border guards to sell military rations, and they all made money and made a fortune."

Another person continued: "Those who work hard to make life live are all the hardships of us soldiers. Do you think the Western thieves are so great that they are so poor that they can't even eat enough to eat, and they still have the strength to fight? It's just that these dog officials don't want to win the battle. If they drive away the Western thieves, they will not be able to catch up with them. Gou Niang raised it!"

Liang Chuan responded, "Is this a matter of this? This is to raise the enemy's self-respect."

The young man couldn't stop talking so happily and laughed: "I didn't want to fight before, but now I'm fine. The kitten has grown into a big tiger. The Western thief has produced a Li Yuanhao who is so ambitious that the court doesn't want to manage it anymore. It's strange. In the past, Li Yuanhao didn't see so many tricks in wars. He was just doing it with real swords and guns. Now, it's better not to say it. These border generals have been used to comfortable life, but they can't win, but they have suffered a few defeats, but they have suffered."

The Song Dynasty's equipment, number of infantry, and various advanced crossbows were all first-class in the world at that time. With these advantages, the Song Dynasty played for three hundred years and was still a group of savages from the grassland. Of course, the Mongolians were fierce, but the Song Dynasty was unable to play with the Western Xia and Khitans. After all, it was still the corruption of the feudal system. Even these two soldiers understood the truth. These side generals were not responsible for winning the battle. When they won the battle, the cunning rabbit died and the lack of dogs cooked, the horse returned to the Nanshan Mountain to hide the bow, and the battle continued to fight, some were fished for oil and water. Later, the kitten really turned into a big tiger, and they played with it.

This kind of tragedy happened again in the late Ming Dynasty.

"You guy is not very lucky. You are about to farm in spring now. Logically, people like you cannot let you get a knife. At most, you can get a hoe. Now you don't have enough manpower to build the city wall."

"How many people are here?"

Liang Chuan looked at the vast land, the land here was very fertile and the water source was sufficient. If he planted his own sweet potatoes at this time, how much money would he make in that year?

"There are 5,000 hectares of land outside Guangshun Guyuan City. During the busy farming period, more than 5,000 people were responsible for the plowing land. The court allocated 800 plowing oxen, and when there was a war, they would fight. When there was no war, most people farmed together, and ate their own, and did not have to pay the court a grain of rice and grain!"

This city alone can count millions of military expenditure every year and requires these big-headed soldiers to farm themselves, resell military rations and let soldiers farm. If the soldiers do not practice a fight, the people of Xixia came to fight because of their despair. If they were forced to fight, they would definitely lose if they didn't need to fight this battle.

"Hey, we're here. It's a hard work to repair the city wall. If I were to do it, I would rather go to plow the fields than repair the broken thing."

The young soldier pointed to the fortress ahead and said.

Liangchuan looked into the distance and saw a towering fortress between mountains and rivers rising from the ground. The fortress was built against the mountain, facing a cliff in the east, ditch in the north, and connected to the mountains in the south. The terrain was high in the south and low in the north. When the thief came in the west, it was just high in height, and it was indeed a dangerous place.

Looking around, the village is irregularly rectangular, about a few miles long and wide. The south city is surrounded by the mountain, and beacon towers are built on the top of the mountain, and the mountains outside the east and west city walls are cliffs. Outside the west city wall is a gentle slope and a water source. In order to strengthen defense, two city walls are added along two east-west directions outside the north city wall, and moats are built between the city walls. Liangchuan assigned the task here to build these two city walls. There is also a beacon tower on the top of the north mountain. When the enemy attacks, they light up the beacon fire to echo the fortresses.

Siege is the masterpiece of the Han people. The nomadic peoples are best at mobile flash warfare and ambush. They have no choice but to siege the city. Such an iron bucket-like city is placed at this important intersection, which is equivalent to a thorn inserted into their throats.

"But the repair of the city is not bad, at least you don't have to die. Those brothers with swords have never come back after leaving the city. The Western thieves are not afraid of field battles, but we are afraid that we will hide in the city and will not come out. But these officials are pig brains and they have to take their brothers out to die one round after another!"

Liang Chuan sighed. The most feared thing about being a soldier was to meet a general who had no brains. He took his subordinates to die together. Obeying orders is another duty. If he wanted to retreat, he was beheaded first.

"Which general is under the jurisdiction of this? Didn't Lord Fan and Lord Han take charge of Northwest military affairs? Is this their jurisdiction?"

"They are in charge of military affairs in the entire northwest. There is also a Lord Xia Xuxia above them? But where is your turn to take care of the ruins of the city repair? You don't think about your weight and figure out your status. Do you still need them to take care of them?"

"Yes, yes, brother Bing has to teach yes."

Liang Chuan saw that it was getting late, and he had to build the city wall after he went there. I wonder if there was still food to eat. He was already hungry in his stomach, and the sound of cooing was like thunder.

Although the two young soldiers experienced the severe beating of society, they had not completely lost their human nature. Although Liang Chuan was born as a criminal, wouldn't they all be in the army? In the future, they would be people in a trench pit on the battlefield. The two of them first looked at Liang Chuan, and then took out a piece of browned wheat cake from their arms.

"Eat, you have to build the city wall at night. It is possible to die on the top of the city if you are not full and you are tired!"

Liang Chuan felt warm in his heart and took the cake gratefully. When he was hungry, he felt that the wheat cake was even more fragrant. He picked it up and ate it completely.

"A piece of grace should be repaid with a spring of water. What do you call the two young men?"

"Your mother is still repaid. If you don't want to repay the revenge, I will thank you. My name is Song Jun."

"Song Sizheng."

"Are you two brothers?"

"We are all from Xianglongsi Village, Suizhou, Shaanxi Road. We are not brothers but cousins, but we are all the same as brothers. Is there any problem?"

Liang Chuan tilted his head and couldn't understand where Suizhou was for a moment.

"Does this fortress have a name?"

"Dingchuanzhai!"

"What!"
Chapter completed!
