City in the Cloud.

This heroic city, which was located among the mountains in the northern border, was merged into Zhao during the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Northern Di tribes such as Loufanlin Hu were still hunting. The famous general of Zhao State Li Mu fought with the Northern Di tribes here for bloody battles, and finally developed the Zhao State cavalry that made the Qin people scared.

During the Han Dynasty, the former place was the place where the Han Dynasty and the Huns fought a battle. The Huns were strong and went south to invade, while the Han generals used this as their starting base for counterattack.

After the decline and fall of the Han Dynasty, it became a place for foreign hunting, first the Xianbei Wuhuan, then Rouran, and one clan came again. After the rise of Tuoba Xianbei, the Northern Wei used this as its capital, which was called Pingcheng at that time. The Northern Wei migrated 3,000 heroic officials and people from the twenty-two states under its rule to enrich the place. Pingcheng was a number of heroic cities in northern China at that time.

The Northern Wei split into the Eastern Wei and Western Wei, and the Eastern Wei and Western Wei were usurped by the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou respectively. Pingcheng has always been the focus of competition between the two sides. After several changes of hands, they can collect good horses on the grassland, recruit elite troops from the border, and follow the trend of victory. In the end, Pingcheng fell into the hands of the Northern Zhou Dynasty and changed Pingcheng to Heng'an Town.

In the end, the Northern Zhou Dynasty defeated the Northern Qi Dynasty, and changed Heng'an Town to Yunzhong County, which belonged to Mayi County. The Northern Zhou Dynasty in the Sui Dynasty has been passed down to this day.

The land in the clouds is basically the peak of the defense line that expanded northward when the Central Plains dynasty was prosperous. When the Central Plains dynasty was prosperous, they controlled the grasslands, covered the inner Great Wall, and kept the safety of the heartland of the Central Plains. The border soldiers here formed one after another, fought and died here.

When the Central Plains dynasty was in decline, this was the pasture of the Hu tribe in the north. The athletes in the border areas either resisted to the end or became minions of the Hu tribe, heading south to disrupt the Central Plains.

Hundreds of years have passed since the Qin and Han dynasties, and the land in the clouds is mixed with all races and the people are strong. The belonging here is a weather vane that can be seen from the weather of the Central Plains Dynasty.

In the autumn of the 12th year of Daye, Yunzhongcheng was still under the rule of the Great Sui Dynasty. Heng'an Yingyang Mansion was in charge of the Great Sui Dynasty, maintaining the rule of the Great Sui Dynasty.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is a rare and good weather. The autumn sun shines, and there is no wind blowing. The world is filled with warm smell.

The patrol soldiers of Heng'an Yingyang Mansion at the gate of the city were wearing shabby leather armor, sitting or standing, but chatting with the robe. Some patrol soldiers took out the robe to wash and dry it, and hung it everywhere near the gate of the city. It was like a scene of flags flying.

Even though the Turks grew, the border areas were full of wars and fire. Wang Rengong and Liu Wuzhou County confronted each other, both sides were making a fuss about this important transportation route. However, Yunzhong City was a key area connecting the heartland of the Central Plains and the grassland outside the frontier, and there was still a bit lush scene.

With the signature of aristocratic families, you can come north without fear of tax cards along the way and enter Yunzhong City. These caravans are loaded with grain from Hedong, salt from Hedong's salt from Hedong, and various silk sections of cloth from silk, and even some courageous and hard-working ironware forbidden to sell to the grassland, and carriages are taken to Yunzhong City.

The grassland tribes also drove their horses, furs, sand gold, and other grasslands to produce, and even plundered the income from the Central Plains. They were waiting for a trading transaction in Yunzhong City. Even during the battle with the Turks, people from all Turkic tribes came to pretend to be the Tatars and other tribes under the rule, and those who knew them turned a blind eye.

Of course, these transactions were controlled by major families in counties such as Yanmen, Mayi, Hedong, and the Turkic tribes were not easily offended by Heng'an Yingyang Mansion. Every autumn, the tents and curtains inside and outside the Yunzhong City were everywhere, caravans gathered, temples and inns in the city were full, and horses and sheep were neighing outside the city, and they did not disperse until the autumn was deep.

Only those little vendors with no way have to climb over the mountains, sneak into the grasslands and search for those small tribes for transactions. Heng'an Yingyang Mansion cannot move the big surnames and Turkic tribes that trade here every year, and can only make up their minds on these small vendors.

No matter how undercurrents are surging in the county, no matter when the Turks turn against each other and go south again. At least at this moment, there is still a peaceful scene inside and outside Yunzhong City.

Seeing that it was almost noon, there were more and more caravans on the official road outside the south gate of Yunzhongcheng.

The caravans and horses all set off according to the schedule, rushed to the road in the afternoon, and entered Yunzhong City. After settling down, they could dissipate.

The soldiers of the gate were lazy all morning and had to cheer up in the afternoon. At least every convoy had to stand up and take a look when they came.

Although there is a personal income tax card at the south gate, even if the tax collectors sent to the guards saw that there were too many horses on the road, they just hurried in the straw shed and napped.

The south of this official road was controlled by the prefect of Wang Rengong, and the north was controlled by Liu Wuzhou. Those who could walk on the official road were the caravans of aristocratic families, and many hosts said that they could not return the surname Wang. Otherwise, the commercial tax could be paid to pay the capital.

The small caravans that everyone could afford to provoke all went into the valley and played hide-and-seek with Heng'an Yingyang soldiers who had been scattered. Apart from taking naps, there was really nothing to do here.

Suddenly the tax collector heard a soldier greeting: "Studyman, there are a group of people coming over there. It doesn't look like a caravan. What's the way you come from?"

The tax collector was in his forties and looked like a villager. He was also from Yingyang Mansion in Heng'an. Because he had a close friend with a certain school captain, he sent this idle servant to the army after a few words.

After staying in the tax collector's army for a long time, he didn't have the bad temper of a scholar. The soldiers stood up lazily and looked at the official road to the south.

There was a caravan walking in the official road, but it was very large. There were sixty or seventy animals carrying carts, and more than ten heavy-loaded carts. The horses pulling the carts were all covered with sweat. There were twenty or thirty figures like young men guarding the carts, each of whom looked light and fierce, with a bow and a knife in hand, and the team ran back and forth, responding to the pack horse cart.

There were two or three cars in the team, and the curtains of the car were hanging down, so I couldn't tell what the scene was in the car. Although the dozen people guarding the car were wearing short robes and trousers, and had never worn crowns in their hair tied up, they knew they were like soldiers in the army at a glance. I don't know which caravan was from a big man, but they actually dispatched military personnel to guard them.

Although the show is so, the soldiers and tax collectors are used to it. In this year, the one who can still walk this trade route to the grassland is not deeply rooted in the Great Sui Dynasty. Behind them are those old pillar families who have been passed down from the six Xianbei towns.

The soldiers of the sect greeted the tax collector to see what was new, but there was another team.

The team is only about eight or nine people. The caravan walks on the official road, and the team walks on the official road, which has nothing to do with it.

These eight or nine people looked dusty. The mounts under their crotch seemed to have gone through a long journey and could not even lift their hooves. Some mounts breathed and spit out sparse white foam when they breathed once, as if they would die at any time.

These eight or nine people were all wearing bows and swords, dressed as if they were on the sidelines. But the first one was only eighteen or nineteen years old. From a distance, they all had flat shoulders and narrow waists on the horse's back, and were as sharp as swords. At this moment, they seemed to be looking at the caravan beside them curiously.

The tax collector kept muttering, what's the way this is?

The young man in the young man either gave Wang Rengong all the tricks into Mayi Yingyang Mansion or drove him to Hedong. And the young man in the Yingyang Mansion in Heng'an was not the one in the young man in the young man in the young man in the young man in the young man in the young man in the young man in the easy way to provoke him.

If it is a caravan, these eight or nine people have no goods to carry with them. And how could such a small caravan dare to walk on this official road with swagger? They had already gone through the ravine.

The tax collector thought for a while, and simply explained to the soldiers without any effort: "There is no goods with me, so I'll call me to do what I do, how can I get taxes for them? I'll see if it's a person from a caravan standing in front of the station. Then I'll interrogate it. If there is a foundation, I'll put it in. If there is no foundation, there are few hard laborers in Yingyang Mansion. If there is eight or nine of them, they will not be too many."

He glanced at the Yingrui boy walking in front of him again and said, "But I see, this is not an ordinary person, but in this day and age, which family dares to come to this place?"
