Chapter 563 What does Lu Dongzan want to do?

A fast horse flew to Chang'an and raised the smoke of dusty wolf.

The knight on the horse was Mayor He. He galloped and ran away with sweat on his forehead and sweat on his back.

The same is true for the strong horse under his crotch, but when he saw that his horse's hair was wet, he breathed and turned into white mist when he ran.

Each man and his horse were trying hard to grab the time. They wanted to send the news before the Tubo delegation arrived in Chang'an.

It takes forty miles to travel from Iron Town to Chang'an, and it takes an hour to calculate the fastest horse speed. Although the Tubo delegation set off earlier than Mayor He, Mayor He firmly believes that he can deliver the news in advance.

Why?

Because the target of the Tubo delegation was Chang'an, and what he was going to be General Tiance's mansion.

A year ago, Han Yue was granted the title of General Tiance. At that time, the mansion was not built in Chang'an, but in his hometown Tianjiazhuang, the western suburbs of Chang'an. The one Mayor He was going to was Tianjiazhuang.

It is forty miles from Daniel Town to Chang'an, and twenty miles from Tianjiazhuang to Chang'an. If you reduce it, it is actually only twenty miles from Daniel Town to Tianjiazhuang.

It only takes half an hour for Mayor He to twenty miles.

He ran wildly all the way, and he was still copying small paths. In just half an hour, a big river suddenly appeared in front of him.

This is the famous Wei River in Guanlong, and Tianjiazhuang stands on the banks of the Wei River.

There is a bridge on the river, and Mayor He jumped onto the stone bridge by horse.

"Who? Get off the horse quickly and get checked..."

A loud shout sounded across the bridge, and two soldiers holding the sword jumped out.

Today, Tianjiazhuang is no longer as muddy village as in previous years, but is the famous General Tiance Mansion. This place not only has a royal residence, but also the command center of the 100,000 town of the Tang Dynasty.

Because of its important status, roadblocks are set up.

Mayor He did not dismount, but instead whipped the horse whip again, and at the same time took out something from his arms and shouted: "The robes on the opposite side are released quickly. I am He Laosan, the mayor under the jurisdiction of Tiance Mansion. This is my official seal of the ninth-grade town chief. I have urgent matters to report to Tiance Mansion..."

Under the sunlight, his brass seal was burning. The eyes of the two soldiers across the bridge flashed, and they moved the roadblocks without asking.

One person couldn't help but ask urgently: "Her Lao San, do you have any urgent matters to report? Brother, I remember that you retired a year ago and returned to your hometown. It seems that you are responsible for the construction of the Daoyi Town twenty miles southwest."

As the soldiers asked, He Laosan rode his horse by, and his horse was still stopping. He looked back immediately and screamed and shouted: "The Tubo delegation rushed into my town, abused and killed one of the people, and broke my legs. I came here to report my news, not for personal grudges, but to ask Your Highness to make the decision for our people..."

He burst into tears in his eyes, and he wiped it hard, shouting and said, "Why can aliens be arrogant on the land of the Tang Dynasty?"

The two soldiers changed their color at the same time and said furiously: "Hello, he is Tubo again."

The Tiance Mansion controls the secrets of the world's military, and the news is exactly the same as that of Li Shimin in the palace. In the past year, Tubo has frequently plundered Jiannan Road. The Tiance Mansion, from the generals to the soldiers, were extremely sad and angry.

He Laosan ran all the way and said, "I wonder which general is in charge today? The Tubo delegation will arrive in Chang'an in another half an hour. I need to hand over the news urgently so that His Majesty and His Highness can know the origin of these people in advance."

The soldier on the left raised his arm and shouted: "You go straight to the mansion along the road and you can see General Li Chong who is on duty today."

The soldier on the right shouted caringly and asked, "Brother He San, can your baby's leg bone still be connected?"

Unfortunately, He Laosan had already run far and headed straight for Tiance Mansion in Tianjiazhuang.

The two soldiers looked at each other and were still standing by the bridge and looking around.

One man said viciously: "What a damn Tubo barbarian. He actually killed me, the people of the Tang Dynasty, and broke the little kid's leg bone. This matter cannot be settled with them."

The other man also gritted his teeth, but clenched his fists and said nothing.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty attached great importance to feelings. He Laosan was in guise with them before he retired. At this time, the two of them heard that He Laosan's son was injured, and they immediately felt a sense of hatred for the enemy.

A moment later, He Laosan broke into the front of Tiance Mansion.

The guards in front of the mansion suddenly saw the galloping horse coming and were about to jump out and ask to stop him, but He Laosan had no time to stop the horse, so he jumped down on the back of the running horse.

He Laosan rolled on the ground twice, raised his official seal and shouted, and said sadly: "List it as a robes and gives a way. I want to see General Li Chong. I want to ask Tiance Mansion to make the decision for me..."

The Tang Dynasty had 100,000 towns, and the first phase was built in three thousand towns. When the town was first established, Han Yue once said that the three thousand towns were all under his command. If you want people to give money, you will be called Tiantian Keying and Didi Keling.

The guards in front of the mansion flashed their eyes, and one person stepped forward to support He Laosan and shouted, "You said you were bullied? Who dares to bully the people from the Tiance Mansion?"

Without waiting for He Laosan to talk to him, he helped He Laosan into the door.

After another moment, three figures suddenly rushed out of Tiance Mansion. The three of them did not ride horses at all, but used their light skills to rush on their way.

It is twenty miles from Tianjiazhuang to Chang'an. If you use a fast horse to report the message, it is likely that you will be late after the Tubo delegation. So Li Chong, who is on duty today, directly asked the Movement Mansion to worship, and he was able to take three top-notch masters with one move.

These three masters are all from the Qianlong Organization. They are not only top-notch masters, but also top-notch masters who are good at light skills.

Li Chong asked the three of them to move forward in a short distance, so that the news could be reported as early as possible.

The three of them have three tasks respectively.

One person is responsible for notifying Han Yue.

One person is responsible for notifying the guards of Chang'an City Gate.

The last person went to the camp of the central army of Wuwei, and was always ready to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress the Tubo delegation.

A mayor was bullied and the entire Tiance Mansion was mobilized. Although everyone didn't know how Han Yue would deal with it for the time being, the entire Tiance Mansion firmly believed that Your Highness would definitely support his own people.

The matter reported by He Laosan made the entire Tiance Mansion full of curses.

If Li Chong hadn't suppressed him vigorously, the soldiers in the mansion might have to intercept the Tubo delegation.

...

...

The huge war machine of Tiance Prefecture was running, and it took less than half an hour to spread the news to Chang'an. But at this time, the Tubo delegation had gone apart and they ran along the official road to Lantian County in the eastern part of Chang'an.

After all, I am not familiar with the place and I never stopped to ask the people for directions along the way.

Lu Dongzan only thought that he could reach Chang'an by following the official road, but he didn't know that the official road was being practiced around Chang'an now.

The group of five hundred warriors ran wildly, and the more they walked, they felt something was wrong. Lu Dongzan suddenly pulled the reins quickly, looked up at the sun and pondered: "We seem to be in the wrong direction. This official road leads to the east."

They came from the southwest and should have gone north to Chang'an. Now the path leads to the east, and it goes a long way.

The warriors looked up at the sky, and then they also found that they had indeed taken the wrong path.

Suddenly, Katsura Tsango discovered something and pointed to the distant east and said in surprise: "Look at Da Xiang, there seem to be many people there..."

Lu Dongzan's eyes flashed, and he sat on the horse and looked into the distance. Unfortunately, he was not a samurai and his eyesight was not as good as Tsangyang Katsura.

A warrior suddenly came up to him and said vigilantly: "God-san is cautious, and his subordinates recommend retreating. I saw that there were crowds of people everywhere, and it seemed that thousands of people were gathering."

"Thousands of people?"

Lu Dongzan's pupils shrank and subconsciously said, "See if they have weapons, and then see if their formation is an army?"

"Army? It should not be an army..."

The warrior shook his head, looked into the distance and looked at it frequently, reporting: "Those people seem to be all people, and they are all ragged? Strangely, thousands of people gathered together, they seemed to be building roads..."

“Build a road?”

Lu Dongzan was stunned for a moment, then whipped the horse whip and said in a deep voice: "Be careful, all the soldiers, go and take a look with the original person."

The warriors agreed.

The Changsui rushed over and said anxiously: "The great figure should not be like this. You should go to Chang'an first."

Lu Dongzan looked at him and shook his head and said, "I want to go and see the road construction, but I feel very uneasy if I don't look at it."

"Why is this? What's the best way to build a road?"

Lu Dongzan breathed, suddenly pointed to the ground under the horse's hooves, and said solemnly: "Have you noticed that the road of the Tang Dynasty is very strange?"

Everyone knows this without saying that.

Everyone ran all the way and found that the road was extremely hard, not only extremely hard, but also extremely flat. A strong horse would make a crisp sound when running on it.

"This method of road construction must be taken through the original form..."

Lu Dongzan said another word, twitched the horse and whipped it forward.

The warriors looked at each other, and Takaya Takashi nonchalantly curled his lips and said, "Since we want to see it, let's keep him and go and see it. Anyway, there are people who build roads there, and even if there are too many people, there is no danger."

So the delegation ran wildly again and soon arrived at the place.

Only then did I realize that there were more than a thousand people building roads, but several thousand people-level teams.

Lu Dongzan stopped his horse and looked around in front of him. Suddenly his pupils shrank suddenly. He blurted out his words and said in shock: "Slave?"

That's right, all the road construction people are slaves.

Why can you find that you are slaves at a glance? It’s just that the clothes these people wear reveal everything. But they saw that there was a big word “slave” written on their chests, and a string of small numbers were written on the back of their clothes.

Lu Dongzan's eyes kept flashing, frowned and pondered: "The Tang Dynasty is known to govern the country with a kindness and righteousness, and even death row prisoners are rarely killed. Why are there slaves here, and there are thousands or tens of thousands of slaves?"

Cangyang Jialong next to him suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said greedy: "Da Xiang, have you seen that these slaves actually have a shovel. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty is so rich that it has to even release shovels to build roads?"

Iron is a valuable material, generally only used to make weapons and agricultural tools. The Tubo people were reluctant to even beat agricultural tools. They only used iron to make weapons.

"I really want to steal them..." Tsangyang Karato licked the corner of his mouth.

Lu Dongzan looked at him and refused to comment on this.

In fact, this Tubo prime minister was also very greedy, and just now he had an urge to rob.

...

...The first update is here, don't worry, you can always let the hooked nose be killed. Book friends, wait and see. By the way, if you have any good ways to make a ghost, please leave a comment.
