Chapter 111 Meiwu Fort
Entering Qintong Pass, even if you enter the capital of the capital, you will only be nine hundred miles away from Yanjing City. The cavalry convoy can reach the city of Yanjing in one day.
However, as the Wuwei Army's advancing delegation, Ge Xuanqiao could not lead more than a thousand elite soldiers to enter Yanjing City directly. There are many rules to be said.
Although the imperial edict had not been issued in the palace for several months, the Tianshu Courtyard of the military towns, and the Taiwei Mansion were still operating normally. The Taiwei Mansion was in charge of the military dispatch power of the Dayan Empire. The Wuwei Army, Hexiang Army, and Musashi Army were nominally under the jurisdiction of the Taiwei Mansion. Chen Hai only realized that the Hexiang Army had sent envoys to the Taiwei Mansion to file a lawsuit.
As the envoy of the Wuwei Army, after entering Qintong Pass, Ge Xuanqiao needed to further obtain the talisman of the Taiwei Mansion before entering Yanjing to confess his love and confront the envoys sent by Hexiang Army.
As the guards of the delegation, more than a thousand elite soldiers could not enter Yanjing City directly according to the rules. The day after entering Qintongguan, they first entered a post house called Meiwu Fort, two hundred miles away from the western suburbs of Yanjing City.
Meiwu Fort is built next to the sprint road connecting Qintongguan and Yanjing City. Thirty-enterprise courtyard is surrounded by high walls, with arrow towers and whistle towers, like a small fortress. Qiuye River, a tributary of the Chu River, passed from the north of the post house, and Wudu Port is built. It can be said that it is the place where water and land meet in the western suburbs of the capital. There is another Mei forest in the mountain behind it, so it is named Meiwu Fort.
Meiwu Fort was originally a place designated by the Taiwei Mansion to welcome and send off the Wuwei Army envoys.
In previous years, when the emperor was in full swing, the generals of the Wuwei Army had to personally arrive in Yanjing every three or five years, and the guards and horses had to stay in Meiwu Fort.
Although the Great Protector General Dong Liang has not entered Yanjing for more than ten years to report his duties, he also sent a special person to guard Meiwu Fort so that he could contact Beijing nearby. It can be said that it is the private post of the Wuwei Army and the liaison office in Beijing. Many people usually stay in Meiwu Fort for business trips between Hexi counties and Yanjing.
It is also a place where water and land meet, with dense villages nearby, and Meiwu Fort is also a very prosperous commercial port.
Previously, there were only postmasters sent by the Wuwei Military Commission, who led 20 to 30 postmasters to take care of more than 30 into the courtyard, which was very leisurely.
Even if there are military envoys who come from Hexi with official letters from time to time, at least three or five people, or at most dozens of people, Meiwu Fort can send people to assist in contacting the Taiwei Mansion or Tianshu Courtyard of the Beijing Central.
This time, the delegation used more than a thousand elite yamen soldiers, nearly 300 disciples who participated in the examination, and the accompanying entourages and attendants, and instantly filled the 30-year-old yard that looked quite abundant in Meiwu Fort.
Thousands of elite yamen soldiers could still squeeze, but the worst mounts of everyone was the Qing Jingliang rider who was one or two taller than Chen Hai. He was extremely strong in size and was as large as thousands of horses. He could only temporarily open a horse farm in the Meilin on the back mountain of Meiwu Fort for resettlement.
Chen Hai led the 200 private soldiers of the Zhaoyang Ting Hou Mansion, Meiwu Fort arranged three yards, wing rooms, main halls, and ear rooms in total, and there were more than 20 houses, and only 200 shops could be arranged to allow two or three hundred people to squeeze in to resettle; people had to be arranged to go to the back mountain to watch over horses and wings. Even if they were outside Yanjing City, Chen Hai and the others had no time to get off.
What is rare is that there is a spiritual spring introduced from the back mountain to Meiwu Fort, which makes the fort rich in spiritual energy. It is a rare spiritual place to practice in the western suburbs of the capital.
******************************
As soon as Chen Hai and his friends entered Meiwu Fort, the Taiwei Mansion sent officials to contact him.
However, the Taiwei Mansion is not able to directly invite Ge Xuanqiao and others to enter the city to confront the envoys sent by Hexiang Army. The Taiwei Mansion also needs to conduct an independent investigation before and after Yulong Mountain before listening to the defense of both sides.
The Taiwei Mansion was not summoned. Ge Xuanqiao, Chen Lie, and Dong Pan wanted to stay in Meiwu Fort as usual, but if they really wanted to be so passive, how many people in Yanjing would stand up and speak for the Wuwei Army?
Those who visit this event must visit the event before confronting the Hexiang Army delegation.
Ge Xuanqiao was in Meijiawu. This time he went to Yanjing to support the scene. He couldn't help but do these things in a low voice. Even if he came forward to socialize, he was a first-class person in the crazy way. He went to Yanjing to visit officials, royal families and nobles of the eight tribes, which was naturally a matter between Chen Lie and Dong Panfen.
Chen Lie knew that Chen Hai was unwilling to have much relationship with Yao again. He went to the city to visit the old man and asked Su Yuan and others to accompany him, and left Chen Hai to handle other affairs at Meiwu Fort.
After contacting the priest from the Tianshu Academy Academy, the 300 disciples of Taiwei Sect, led by Dong Ning, the princess of Yuecheng, contacted the priest sent by the Tianshu Academy Academy, the vast majority chose to enter Yanjing City directly on the same day and live in the museum arranged by the Academy, preparing to participate in the selection of the academy examinations that will be held after the New Year.
The Meiwu Fort is too crowded. It is a bit too embarrassing to let these prides of the Taiwei Sect sleep in the shops with the guards and their servants. They would rather go to the city to stay in the inn than staying in the Meiwu Fort.
What's more, these disciples came to participate in the palace selection of Tianshu Academy. Once they entered Qintongguan, they no longer needed to get involved with the delegation to Qin.
***************************
The so-called examination selection can be said to be the imperial examination of the sect of the Great Yan Empire.
The middle and high-level civil and military officials of the Dayan Empire implemented the system of recommendation, and the Tianshu Academy and the clan clans jointly exercised the power of recommendation; while a large number of middle and low-level civil and military officials implemented the system of selection.
Every few years, most disciples who have entered the spiritual realm of spiritual cultivation will be recommended by the sects of Yanjing Tianshu Academy to participate in the examination. Those who have entered the Tianshu Academy Academy to practice for several years and then are given civil and military officials.
The school palace of Tianshu Court is built on the bank of a Meilin Stone Creek, also known as the Meizhu Academy. Its status in the Great Yan Empire is equivalent to the Imperial Academy and Imperial College as Chen Hai understood.
The Examination System can be said to be the foundation and supplement of the Examination System. Even if there are many independent military towns, vassal states, and even some vassal states, if you want to ensure that you have a certain influence in the center of the empire, you will select talented disciples to participate in each academic and palace selection.
In addition to the Tian List and Earth List of the Xuan Xiu of Yanzhou, the list of outstanding Xuan Xiu people selected by the Academic Disciples List, also known as the Spring Examination Qing Bird List, the former will be regarded as the most potential of the younger generation in Yanzhou and is also a rising star who is highly valued by the sects and the world.
In the world, the characters on the Tianqin List and the Earth List all occupied a place on the Spring Examination Qingqin List in their early years. It can be seen that it is natural that the Spring Examination Qingqin List was valued.
Chen Hai, Zhou Jun and Chen Qing will also participate in the examination this time, but except for Chen Qing who first moved into the school palace, Chen Hai and Zhou Jun had just arrived in Yanjing, and had a lot of things to help Chen Lie and Su Yuan handled, so they stayed in Meiwu Fort first. Now they have no clues about everything.
Confronting the envoy of Hexiang Army was a matter of great figures such as Ge Xuanqiao, Chen Lie, and Dong Pan. Su Yuan also came to Yanjing this time and decided to spread the armor of the Medicine God Garden to Yanjing City among hundreds of counties.
Chen Lie no longer holds an important position. With the limited salary of the deputy envoy of the sect, he could not fill the gap in the Pharmacist Garden's thousands of elite soldiers. The rewards of the surprise attack on Chishan City were enough for the Pharmacist Garden to support the Pharmacist Garden for two years, so the transaction of the Soldiers Store would still be launched on a larger scale.
Su Yuan, who is in charge of the internal affairs of the Zhaoyangting Hou Mansion, will not stay in Yanjing for a long time. No matter who is Chen Hai or Zhou Jun, who is selected to stay in Yanjing through the imperial examination, he will maintain the Pharmacist Garden Shop opened in Yanjing City with the assistance of Zhou Jingyuan and others.
In the earliest plan, everyone wanted to spread the armor to Yanjing City, but transported the good iron armor cast in the Medicine God Park to the hinterland of Yanzhou to seek commercial profits. However, the situation of refugees blocking the road, Qin Tong, and Tianshui counties along the way was much more severe than expected. Chen Hai and the others were worried that long-distance transportation of excellent soldiers from Hexi County would be more likely to become targets for refugees and bandits.
Chen Hai discussed with his uncle Chen Lie and Su Yuan that in addition to the group of soldiers brought to Yanjing this time, he also felt that it was necessary for them to directly cast excellent soldiers in the relatively calm Jingjin area...
In addition, the more famines are, the more insecure the business traveling to and from various prefectures and counties, the more insecure the ward guards in the Jingji area will be a good business, and it can also make full use of the thousands of elite soldiers idle in the Zhaoyangting Hou Mansion at this time.
Chen Hai advocated opening a Pharmacist Garden Armour House in Jingjin, and supported each other with the Bingjia Shop. At this time, two hundred soldiers in the Zhaoyangting Hou Mansion that followed them into Yanjing could stay directly.
Chen Lie and Su Yuan decided to lower the tone, and the rest was Chen Hai and Ge Tong, Ding Shuang, Zhou Jingyuan and others to carry out and deal with it.
Ding Shuang, Zhou Jingyuan and others seem to have low cultivation, but they are all extremely talented people.
Because Sun Gan, Chen Quan, Chen Yu, Chen Zhang and others were idle, the affairs of the Pharmacist Garden had to be adjusted after many of the previous affairs. Zhou Jingyuan could not continue to control the mines, smelting farms and thousands of slave labor, and Ge Tong could not continue to control the defense and public security inside and outside the Pharmacist Garden. Including the disciple camp, Chen Hai was also handed over to Sun Gan before his departure...
Including Chen Quan, Chen Yu, Sun Gan and others, they will first go to Huanglongyuan Taoist Court to serve as the head of the Zhaoyang Ting Hou Mansion to ensure that the development potential of Zhaoyang Ting Hou Mansion is not interrupted.
Ge Tong, Zhou Jingyuan and others stayed in the Pharmacist Garden and could no longer hold important positions. Chen Hai brought them all to his side, which was just right at this time.
The places where the hushed and raising troops and the management of casting sites cover a large area and can only be arranged outside the city.
Zhou Jingyuan and Ding Shuang visited the officials stationed in Meiwu Fort on the week. They learned that there was a farm in the north of Meiwu Fort facing Qiuye River. The former owner was afraid of the disaster of the refugees in the capital, so he moved his family to Yanjing City. There were only a dozen servants in charge of the farm, and they also intended to take it out.
This village is only three miles away from Meiwu Fort, and the conditions in all aspects can be said to be very convenient and superior. Although the courtyard is a little simpler, with more than 300 acres of fertile land, only a dozen Hexi fine horses can be exchanged for.
This time, in addition to five or six hundred sets of soldiers, Chen Hai and his friends brought more than 400 good horses into Yanjing, which were all the rewards for the surprise attack on Chishan City.
These good horses cannot be sold at high prices in Hexi County, and the Zhaoyangting Hou Mansion cannot digest so many horses. I took this rare opportunity to bring one of them to Yanjing for sale.
