Chapter 681 (1/2)
No city can be built in a short period of time. What's more, Kyoto in the Tang Dynasty is a top priority. If you want to build a perfect plan on the sand table, you have to build it in a few years.
Since Li Zhi and Wu Mei, in a way close to bandits, stripped the profits of Jiancheng in the upper court of the imperial court, and after doing this with Li Hong, they began to live a carefree life as empress dowager.
For many years before this, the Ministry of works has been building a broad road from Chang'an to Anxi, which was completed before the expansion of Chang'an city.
In addition, when Li Hong was the Minister of Hubu, the Daguan road from Chang'an to Luoyang had been extended. In the past ten years, three official roads had been extended from Chang'an city to the whole Tang Dynasty.
Along the Hexi corridor to Anxi in the west, Luoyang in the East, the Yellow River and Bohai bowl in the East. To the south, a great official road was built along the Tongji canal leading to Sizhou and Yangzhou.
The construction of the three official roads greatly reduced the Tang Dynasty's dependence on water transportation. At the same time, with a lot of flattery, the court moved into the pass from the place where the nomadic people were located, or went south to each post station on the official road, or sold to the merchants of transportation.
In this way, the smooth and flexible land transportation was ensured, and the cities close to the three official roads in the Tang Dynasty gradually began to prosper. In addition, there were no natural and man-made disasters in the south of the Yangtze River, and the grain harvest was abundant. After meeting the needs of food and clothing, a large number of handicraft workers began to pour into the cities along the road.
Most of the cities in the Tang Dynasty, especially those in the south of the Yangtze River, were built by rivers. In the north, where the waterways are well developed, this situation can not be avoided.
The Tongji canal, the Yellow River and the Yongji canal, together with a large official road between the Yongji canal and the Yellow River, make the whole coastal city not as rich as the south of the Yangtze River, but also a thriving scene.
The Yongji canal leads directly to Youzhou, and then to the outside of the pass. Now, Lu Zhaolin, the governor of Youzhou, has begun to communicate and discuss with gexiyuan, the governor of antongdu. He intends to make contributions from both sides, and then ask the court for funding and sponsorship. Then along the Bohai official road, Lu Zhaolin passes through Youzhou and extends out of the pass.
At the beginning, even the joint memorial of Lu Zhaolin and Ge Xiyuan was placed at the bottom of the memorials, and he was always reluctant to face it.
Xue Rengui, Hei Chih Chang Zhi and Zhang Cambodian gathered in Anxi, tuhuoluo, huarazima and Dashi. All kinds of small conflicts and infighting have begun between them.
Although there has never been a real confrontation between the Tang Dynasty and Dashi, both the Tang Dynasty and Dashi are making tentative contact with each other's forces by making use of the tuhuro tribes controlled by themselves and the ferocity and mindlessness of the huarazimi people.
It is obvious that Dashi has changed a lot in the past two years, and the use of troops in Anxi is not inevitable at the beginning. With the control of tuhuro by them and the Tang Dynasty, Dashi's original high momentum is slowly disappearing in this year.
On the contrary, the Wenwu group composed of Zhang cambi, Xue Rengui and Hei Chih Chang Zhi, and the forces of tuhuoluo supported by Bulus now did not occupy an overwhelming advantage in tuhuro, but the huarazimi were attracted into the Anxi Corps in disguise.
With the large-scale expansion of Anxi corps, the source of Anxi official road continued to appear. The commercial brigade expropriated by the imperial court, as well as the army's own supply team, continuously transported materials from the pass.
In terms of material supply, it has already occupied an overwhelming advantage. A large number of warm and warm clothes were distributed to Zhechong mansion of BINGTUAN, and then distributed to soldiers. Even huarazi model people, who were absorbed by Xue Rengui and Hei Chi Chang, had a set of old clothes for cold protection.
Outside a barracks in shayecheng, an important town in Anxi, several horses are rapidly passing through. From the snow falling in the sky, with the sound of horses' hooves passing by, a messy black horseshoe mark is left on the snow-white land.
At this time, the whole city was covered with white snow. The black wall originally built with bluestone has now turned white. In the whole city, few people run to the streets in spite of the wind and snow.
Even the business travelers who had just entered the city drove the camel team into the inn under the command of the shopkeeper. A large number of snowflakes flew into his mouth in a mouth. He said hello to the innkeeper loudly. Then he dropped the camel team and got into the inn. He grabbed a bowl of good wine with the aroma of wine from the counter and drank it down.
