When the Military Commander presided over the construction of the Sujiang City, the main purpose of this city was to control the Mongolian tribes in the eastern part. The city location was very close to Baicheng in Bahrain. On the right were the Arukorqin tribes, on the left were Naiman and Aohan, on the straight east was Korqin, and on the northwest was Wengniut.

The city was built here, strengthened contact with Chahanhot, and monitored Korqin and other tribes. The main purpose of receiving the surrender city was of course not to accept the surrender of the Chahars and Lin Danhan. It might not be too expensive, and Zhang Han would never agree.

There is a tall surrender platform outside the city. Li Shenming suggested that the Military Industry Department rush to build it out. There could accommodate hundreds of people on the platform. A lower viewing platform was built around the platform. The grass was flat and the old trade road from Heji to Liaodong was ahead. Not far away was a rushing river, as well as countless large prisoner camps and barracks of guarding merchant soldiers.

On the left is the surrendered city covering a city wall covering several miles. In a short period of time, a city of such a size was built. The engineers and baggage soldiers certainly made great contributions.

There are permanent formal military camps in the northwest of the city. After this period, there may not be a large number of garrisons. However, before the Jurchens were resolved, the city and the territory of the Korqin people in the future, as well as Yizhou Wei and Thirteen Mountains, this area will be a whole, a chain that can ensure that the Jurchens are unable to go deep into the grassland to grab the fruits of victory belonging to Hutchison and Zhang Han.

Zhang Han takes this seriously and will never be careless at all.

There are also the Fanqin cavalry in the north, the Barhu people in the west, and the Korqin people in the east.

A long chain has been formed, and the most important locks are Thirteen Mountains and Yizhou Guards. As long as the main force of Hutchison is guarding there, the Jurchens will have no chance at all.

When the Mongolians came over, there were not many people on the surrendered platform. Everyone sat on the viewing platform on both sides. The high platform was designed ingeniously, with steps upwards on both sides, and then sat in a horizontal row. Each row was higher than the row at the bottom. After sitting, you could easily see the situation in the distance.

Many Taiji looked at the taller surrender platform with curious eyes, which was the center of the stage and the more brilliant place. No Mongol could walk up, including King Shunyi.

This kind of glory only belongs to the peacekeeping memory created by Zhang Han and him.

Whether it is an official or a merchant army, only the Hutchison personnel are qualified.

Among the Mongols, only Yinding and Baiyintaiji and others were qualified to climb, but they would never go up. Everyone understood that the glory in front of them was the highest point of a series of success on the grassland. All the glory belonged to these conquerors, these Han people, and those who followed Zhang Han to fight on the grassland.

Even if the Mongolians join in and are loyal to Hutchison, who knows what the people on the high platform will think?

Everyone sat down and immersed in a wonderful accumulation of emotions.

There were more and more officials and soldiers in front of me. The entire Sujiang City and the people nearby rushed over. There was no avenue in front of me, only the green grassland and blooming flowers. The less obvious rut ​​marks were crushed from a distance, and new traces were added to the old traces.

Ming'an Taiji said: "It is said that Hutchison will build roads from autumn, and it will be built from their Shangyi Fort to the Sushoucheng City. It will take more than 1,600 miles, which is probably a long time to build."

"It won't be too long," said an experienced Taiji. "They will mobilize tens of thousands of people and have many tools. They will rammed earth all the way, wrap bricks next to important roadbeds, and dig drainage channels. In many places, they plant trees on both sides of the road to guide the chariots and horses in the distance, but this kind of road is very easy to repair and will be repaired soon."

Strictly speaking, the road to Hutchison is equal to the technical level of Qinchi Road. Qinchi Road has only been repaired for less than two years in just a few thousand miles. Hutchison's mobilization ability should be far superior to the Qin Empire, but the technical level has not improved significantly, but the use of tools is definitely much stronger than Qin.

A road less than 2,000 miles away, mobilizing tens of thousands of people to make rammed earth layers, some sides are fixed with bricks, bridges are built in some places, drainage ditches are dug in some places, or trees are planted, which are all quite simple things.

When Zhang Han returned to Qingcheng from Ketunan City, which is later Ulya Sutai area, the road more than 3,000 miles was a mixed landform of the Gobi and grasslands, and there were also a small number of hilly areas.

There are no roads, only grasslands that cannot see the skyline, only weeds that are higher than the knees, and even herders rarely see them. Only fish swimming in the rivers and yellow sheep and hares running in the grass bring some vitality to this vast land, and there is nothing else.

If there is a road and the people who are stationed, the whole world will become lively, and the people who are sent to the stationed will not be too nervous. The road is not only convenience, but a symbol: civilization and efficiency.

The four-wheeled carriage can run well on the grass, but everyone will hope that there will be a road built by Hutchison where they go.

Several Korqin Taiji sighed meaningfully. Of course, they did not want to build the road to their doorsteps, but this was not something they could do. Lin Danhan's fate was right in front of him, and no one dared to say anything against him.

After waiting for a while, it seemed that the vanguard troops had arrived.

There were a large number of red-robed cavalry on the southern horizon.

Red clouds floated on the horizon like whirlwinds, strong and fierce, with a fierce and cruel smell.

Many Mongolians were attracted by it. The fierceness and sharp firearm attacks of hunters have always been their nightmare. Like the lancers, hunters are also an existence that these Mongolians feel irresistible, and the hunters are obviously even more terrifying. They are much lighter and quicker than the lancers. Even if they can't beat them, they often cannot even escape under the pursuit of hunters.

A large group of hunting cavalry appeared on the horizon.

As the number of people increased, there were as many as a thousand cavalry. The rumbling sound of horse hooves began to sound gradually. Although it was not during the war, the columns of hunting cavalry still maintained a perfect queue when they marched. The neat queue made the sound of horse hooves seem to be one, and the sound vibrated people's eardrums and even more shocked the hearts.

This is a huge and magnificent scene. Under the blue sky, a large number of red-robed cavalry rode their horses, as if a dazzling color suddenly added to the palette.

There were also some cavalrymen on the two wings far away. They were wearing gray-black robes and pointed tartar hats, and they were obviously the Korchin cavalry.

On the two wings of Sujiang City, they were originally the ranch of Arukorqin and Nenjiang Korqin, and some prominent plots.

The Korqin people had surrendered, but they obviously did not really submit. It can be seen from these cavalry that the Taiji people of the Korqin people have not given up yet.

It may also be that they must surrender sincerely, but the Korqin nobles, including Obataiji, always hope to get more.

For nearly twenty years, the Jurchens have been marrying them, holding the Korqin people and winning them over.

An ordinary Korqin Taiji settled in the Jurchen place, and Nuerhaci was likely to go out of the city to greet him for thirty miles, and then offer him delicious food and drink.

This kind of respect and kindness made the Korqin people quite uncomfortable with the cold reception after surrender.

Zhang Han did not value the Korqin people too seriously, and even ordinary people had the same attitude as those of the reporters or generals of the merchant army.

It is very good for the people of Korqin to surrender. If they refuse to surrender, it doesn’t matter.

The people of Korqin have always felt this attitude different from the Jurchens. The toughness and dissatisfaction that Oba Taiji has always shown should also have some considerations in this regard.

If you want people to respect you, you have to show corresponding strength.

Mobilize 100,000 herders, even if 100,000 people from other small tribes help Heji to fight against the Chahar people, the political status of the Korqin people will be very different.

But the Korchin cavalry on both wings were already retreating in a very embarrassing manner at this time, and they remembered these red-robed cavalry.

In the last battle with the foreign cavalry, the Korqin people were actually defeated by the muskets of the hunting cavalry.

Many people still remember this clearly. When the huge stocks of hunting cavalry like a red cloud appeared, these Korqin people were panicked. Whether it was the nobles' armored soldiers or the herders who were temporarily recruited, they were eager to retreat.

It was simply a strange sight. The dark clouds on both sides retreated quickly, as if they were blown away by the wind, while the red clouds approached forward calmly, as if they were angry from giants, quickly dispelling some of the darkness in the shadows.

Several Taiji smiled awkwardly, as if they were laughing at themselves, as if they were laughing at Oba Taiji's ambitions.

One hundred thousand herders helped the war, which now seems to be a cruel joke.

More people appeared on the horizon, with a large number of flags floating in the air.

Some scattered herdsmen rode horses at the north and south ends, and the army was moving forward, and there were also a large number of prisoners, which would definitely attract the herdsmen on the ranch along the way to follow.

At this time, everyone understood what was going on, and no one could continue to grazing at home.

A large number of Hutchison Army personnel began to cheer. They knew that the captives and the main force of the middle road of the Returning Division were approaching. All senior officers rode horses to prepare on both sides of the trade road. The officials and the baggage soldiers began to prepare. Some drummers rushed to the surrendered platform at the speed of trotting. The drummers held their hands and held their big drums, running stumbling. The trumpeters were much more relaxed. Many trumpeters were half-aged children. They worked part-time horns while studying. While running, they were also looking into the distance.

The grass was flattened by a large crowd. Many bored people stood and admired the endless wild flowers on the turf. People were talking and laughing. The military boots of the officers and soldiers were shiny and black. They handed cigarettes to each other. More people smoked tobacco in cigarettes with cigarette bags... Not everyone has the money to enjoy those cigarettes that were very convenient to smoke.

Perhaps the price of cigarettes will be lower in the future, but in large-scale industrial production, that is, before the advent of cigarette machines, the price of cigarettes will definitely be much higher than that of tobacco. This is undoubtedly true.
