Chapter 1468 Fortress

The Bodhisattva told himself to endure over and over again.

But he quickly wanted to slap himself a few big shots, and he was so reluctant that he would vomit blood. At the foot of Yudu Mountain, after saying goodbye to Luo Keyong and Luo Simo, he brought Wang Juncheng, Liu Duwei, more than 100 county officials, as well as two thousand Qin army soldiers back to the tribe.

Along the way, the two thousand cavalrymen were majestic, especially the one who was the 8th-rank Wuqiwei, but he was actually a honor from Shangzhuguo.

He was a county duke. Although he was a high-ranking official, he still had no honors. When he knew that this tall guy was the guy who captured Nishu alive, he couldn't help but be amazed at the good luck of this guy.

The Liu Duwei took his men to the Uighur tribe, but he didn't stop all the way. He sent the Shangzhu Kingdom to take a group of light cavalry, running left and right, and drawing the terrain along the way. He did not fall down any mountain top highland valleys, rivers and springs, and lakes. He could remember clearly which lake was a salt water salt lake and which lake was a sweet water lake.

Whenever I encounter important terrain, I still study how to build forts, build villages and garrisons, where to build beacons, where to build post stations, where to build patrol villages, where to build military forts.

Whenever a Uighur tribe passed by, Wang Juncheng and Liu Duwei would summon these herdsmen to read the emperor's edict to them, and then carve the place name stele.

Wang Fatty asked Tongzhi to tell the tribes and herdsmen that after the county town was established, more Daqin merchants would come there, and would pay for their cattle, sheep and horses, harvest their fur and herbs, harvest their milk, meat, etc., and bring many cheap and easy-to-use Central Plains products, etc.

It is also said that the emperor would garrison troops in the city to protect them from robbery and stealing by other tribes, and would set up medical clinics and schools in the city, etc.

The more you see Fatty Wang and the others' behavior, the more you feel dissatisfied, and the more you endure it, the more you feel uncomfortable.

Every night, the Bodhisattva meditates in the tent for a long time and swears to the Heaven of Eternal Life.

The Qin people wanted to make the Tiel tribes no longer use Turkic characters and no longer speak Turkic language. They had to change the Chinese language and use Chinese characters. Even Tiel dialects might not be able to speak in the future. They also made them believe in the God of Haotian, the Confucius and the Guan Sheng, establish a Confucian school, and send all the children of herdsmen to schools in the county towns and counties, where they boarded and studied in the Han Book for three years.

Isn’t this to brainwash their children?

Going north along the Soling River, the river surface is getting wider and wider, but it is getting colder.

I have not seen the Soling River flow into the North Sea yet, but I can already see many mountain jungles. On this day, I can already see a snow-capped snow-capped mountain in the distance.

It is still far north to reach the North Sea after crossing the snow-capped mountains. In winter, the Uighur tribe will not stay on the shore of the cold lake, but will come to the south of the snow-capped mountains, which will be warmer here.

Fatty Wang took the map and looked left and right, then looked at the high snow-capped mountains for a while.

He pointed to the banks of the Soling River, "This place is good, with a dangerous obstacle on the back and a wide front. It is suitable for building a city in that valley, building a city with mountains and gates at the entrance of the valley. This is a natural dangerous mountain city."

The Bodhisattva looked at the place he pointed to.

Not far from the river, there is a mountain in a protruding highland. The mountain is like an open dustpan. If you build a city wall along the ridge and then at the gate tower at the entrance of the valley, this place is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. What is particularly rare is that the valley is still large and can accommodate many people if it is circled.

In the past, this was a very good place to shelter.

"That's it. Next to this is the Soling River, and not far from the upper reaches are the tributaries of the Yakun River, Tongluo River, Dule River, etc., which are Mobei County and Tongluo County. We choose our county town here, so the transportation is also convenient."

Fatty Wang will not leave.

He asked the Bodhisattva to send people to order the tribes and summoned the titles of marquises and knights of the nine Uighur tribes in Hanhai County to come.

"Let them come to Hanhai City to receive the reward from the saints, and come to the alliance to take office."

Liu Duwei asked Zhao Dayou to go to the valley to raise the red flag of the Qin Dynasty, and announced that this place was Hanhai County City, Mobei Road, Daqin.

The surface of the Soling River, which is hundreds of feet wide, has long been frozen at this time and will not thaw until April. When this river freezes, it is equivalent to a wide and flat road. In the summer and autumn, it can be navigated.

Especially following this big river to the North Sea and crossing the Snow Mountain Pass is an important passage to the north.

The Bodhisattva had to sigh that this Liu Duwei had a very accurate vision and immediately picked such an important position, which was conducive to controlling traffic and making it easier to guard.

There are four rivers and one lake in the north of the Mo River.

In addition to the important river in the center of the northern desert, there are three major rivers flowing northward. There is a river that is expected to be built to the east. Its source originates from the other side of Langjuxu Mountain in the upper reaches of the Tongluo River.

During the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu built a Khan Court at the foot of this mountain, named Langjuxu Mountain. Zhai Qubing defeated the Xiongnu. He once once Fengshan Mountain and made the great name of Fenglangjuxu.

This mountain was once the center of Mobei, but now Mobei County is located at the foot of Yudujun Mountain where Xueyantuo was originally located, on the banks of the Yakun River to the west.

The Tongluo River originated from the west of Langjuxu Mountain, which is now the place where the Tongluo tribe is located. The east originates from the Wangjian River, flowing northeastly, passing through the Julunmo (Hulun Sea), and then flowing into other rivers. It travels through the forests on the west side of the Daxianbei Mountain (Daxingan Mountain), and reaches the south of the Xing'an Mountains outside the north, joins several major rivers and flows southeastly, and goes thousands of miles eastward to be called Hei Shui, and merges into the sea (Heilongjiang).

This Wangjian River, which lasts thousands of miles long, was also called the Gun River by the Uighurs.

There is also a river from the North Sea that flows into the ice sea all the way north. The river is called Dao River. In the Ganman Mountains west of the desert, a big river also originates, and it flows into the ice sea all the way north. This river is called Jianhe.

Jianhe, Jianhe and Gunhe.

These three major rivers are inhabited by the Tiel people at the source, and the farther middle and lower reaches are inhabited by the more wilderness of the Northern Mang barbarians.

In fact, after passing the snow mountain, the Ganman Mountain and the Langjuxu Mountain are no longer grasslands, but mountain forests. Some tribes living there are also more traditional customs than fishing and hunting.

Xue Yantuo's favorite tactics of horse riding and strife fighting at the beginning was because many Xue Yantuo's soldiers came from these mountains and forests, and they did not like to rush and archery.

Theoretically speaking, Hanhai County is actually a border county on the north side of Mobei Road. There is no specific boundary in the northern border of Mobei Road. Daxue Mountain is not a border, and it is not a border to the north to Beihai. After all, although there are Beimang barbarians in the north, there is no tribe that can threaten the Tiel people. In the past, those barbarians also expressed their attitude towards Tiel people that water is not invading the rivers, and sometimes they even came to express their respect and trade them by the way.

Therefore, if the Qin Dynasty crossed the border across the Beihai, until the Beimang wilderness, or even directly reached the large ice sea north of Beimang that the expedition team had already explored, there was nothing wrong with it in theory.

Of course, in fact, in the past, the areas north of Tiel people were mainly south of the Snow Mountains and the Beihai area, which were already intersected with the barbarians.

The emperor established a reward system, and also established a system for the marquis and knights to participate in the alliance. Generally, in winter, they had to go to the county town to meet the alliance. The county leader was the county magistrate sent by the court. In summer, they had to go to the county town to meet the alliance. The leader of the alliance was the county magistrate and the commander of the alliance was the county magistrate. In autumn, they had to go to Daocheng to meet the alliance. The leader of the alliance was the Xuanfu envoy or the governor.

In winter, we have to go to the Central Plains capital to pay tribute to the emperor.

The court officials are responsible for convening the initiators and hosts of alliances at all levels.

Alliances are actually the tradition on the grassland. In the past, whether the Huns ruled the grassland or later Xianbei people, Rouran people, and Turks controlled the grassland, they also used this alliance system to maintain the authority of the Khan, through these alliances, to solve problems among tribes, etc., and even to decide major decisions of the Khanate.

Now the imperial court adopts the alliance system, but it has only slightly modified it.

There are alliances in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but the levels of the four alliances are different, and the people who can participate in the conference are different. The county-level alliances naturally all the marquis and knights in the county must participate. When they reach the county level, only some knights and all the marquis will participate. When they arrive at the Dao Alliance, all the marquis and a small number of knights will participate. As for entering the capital and the marquis in winter, only the marquis are qualified to participate.

As soon as Wei Du of Liu arrived at the place, he urgently wanted to hold an alliance.

This is the first time that Hanhai County Alliance will officially issue the imperial enthronement edict at the alliance meeting. Those who have received titles and titles will receive enthronement edict from Wang Juncheng and Liu Duwei. At the same time, their fiefs and territories will also define the alliance.

The Bodhisattva believes that enthroning marquises and knights should be a one-level feudal system.

For example, he was a county duke, a prefect, and a Khan of the Nine Uighur tribes.

Then even if he had gone to the Khan name, he was still the lord of the Nine Tribes. The emperor appointed him as the prefect of the county duke, and then the nine county magistrates and nine marquises below should be granted or submitted a memorial to request a title.

The titles below are granted by the marquises of each county or submitted a petition for the title.

Then, each marquis was granted the title of knights and granted them the title of knight territory. In this way, just like the Zhou Dynasty in China, the emperor granted the title of princes, and the princes granted the title of ministers and officials. In this way, my monarch's title of monarch is not my monarch's title, and my monarch's title of monarch's title is not my monarch's title, nor my monarch's title of monarch's title is my monarch's title.

This is the right thing to do.

But now, the court wants to directly enthrone the titles of all levels, and even the knights must directly grant the titles of all levels. All the titles of all levels and knights are directly loyal to the emperor.

He, the Duke of Hanhai County, except for the county where his son was the county magistrate, the other eight counties that were not in the headquarters, whether they were marquises, knights or tribes, were no longer directly under his control.

"The county duke should have some connection with the Beimang Man tribe in the jungle north of the North Sea, right?"

The Bodhisattva Path, "I have some connections with several tribes, but I am not familiar with it."

"It's okay, I'll ask the county government to send people to lead the way, take the court's people over to declare the power of the Qin Dynasty and persuade the tribes to naturalize. For those who are willing to submit, the court is also willing to grant titles and rewards."

The Bodhisattva nodded, "Okay, I'll make arrangements now."

He has now begun to doubt whether his tolerance strategy is correct. If this continues, Mobei will not have a place. Even Hanhai County will soon be occupied and turned around.

I've invited the wolf into the house.

Two thousand soldiers of the Qin Dynasty had already begun to build camps in the valley, and the city could not be built for the time being, but the camp must be set up immediately, and a temporary camp will be established first, and a reinforcement will be made when the mountain city is built.

Before this, the two thousand soldiers in the palace would not divide the troops.

"Monkey King, rest in the camp. Before the county town is built, I can only ask the county king to do the job for the saints in this simple camp like us." Fatty Wang said with a smile.

The Bodhisattva nodded silently and understood in his heart. It seemed that the fat man Wang and Liu Duwei did not want him to leave the Qin camp and return to the tribe for the time being.
