Chapter 789 Flags on the Great Wall


    Bingzhou is a collection of areas with many terrains.


    Here, there are beautiful and broad grasslands such as Meiji and Yinshan, as well as border slopes close to high loess slopes such as Beiqu and Puzi, and areas suitable for farming with abundant water sources such as Pingyang and Lishi. There are also mountainous terrains such as the Taihang Mountains and Luliang Mountains, and even some desert areas with severe desertification.


    ??It''s like the plains and plateaus were spliced ??together so naturally, and then glued together casually, and then left alone.


    Yuvluo and his tribe hid in the hilly and folded area south of Meiji. They had been walking for two or three days. At first, they were worried that the Xianbei people would pursue them, but later they found that the Xianbei people turned around and headed east. After calming down some of the panic, worries about the future resurfaced.


    This is often the case for people. When encountering natural or man-made disasters at first, they are often just afraid at first. But when the fear passes, it turns into worry, and then quickly turns into anxiety, and even emotional problems may occur. Huge fluctuations lead to all kinds of weird things.


    ?Huvrault has already experienced this kind of thing once, but he did not expect that just a few years later, he would have to experience it all over again...


    ?Confidence is difficult to build up, but it is very easy to collapse, just as it is always easier to destroy than to build, and criticism is always more fluent than praise.


    It''s just that the previous one was forced, but this time it was Humphrey''s own choice.


    In the past two days, there seemed to be a threat to leave, and some small voices were gradually spreading. Some said that Huvrault was incompetent, some said that he was timid, and some said that he was ashamed of his ancestors. Anyway, there are all kinds of different types. .


    Of course, there were people who spoke uprightly for Yuvluo, but the loss of the royal court was indeed a fact that could not be argued with. Therefore, those who wanted to say something for Yuvluo gradually became silent, and this extremely weird feeling began to pervade the tribe. atmosphere.


    Just when Yuvluo was thinking about how to improve the morale of some tribesmen, Yuvluo received Fei Qian''s invitation, and suddenly discovered that Fei Qian''s troops were not too far from the valley where the Yuvluo tribe was hiding. It''s just the hilltop that leads over the old Zhao Great Wall. If it''s a straight line distance, it''s only about fifty miles...


    This cannot be blamed on Yuvuluo''s low vigilance, it is just human nature. Yuvluo, who fled from the Royal Court of Meiji and hid in the hilly fold area, naturally focused most of his attention on the north. There are relatively few detections on the south side.


    “Zhonglang…”


    Yu Fuluo brought dozens of guards to the Great Wall of the old Zhao Dynasty. He met Fei Qian and received the courtesy, but he didn''t know what to say for a while.


    “Chanyu, please sit down.” Fei Qian stood up and invited Yu Fulu to sit down together.


    ?This section of the old Great Wall is not as majestic as the Badaling Great Wall that Fei Qian saw in later generations. Instead, it looks a little dilapidated.


    Some of the original masonry on the surface of the city wall has become loose, especially the female wall. Most of it has been broken, exposing the yellow-black soil embryo inside. However, the shape of the entire city wall is still complete. It is about three meters high. The city wall The width is also close to three meters.


    Later generations Fei Qian once felt sorry for Meng Jiangnu, and even thought that someone who could cry down the Great Wall must also be a pretty good special attack method of sonic waves. However, in the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian slowly felt that the Great Wall was not as powerful as he thought later generations. That''s just a means of defense...


    Most people in later generations, including Fei Qian, originally thought that the Qin Dynasty''s construction of the Great Wall was a tyranny, an important symbol of oppressing the people and forcing them to work. However, in fact, Fei Qian found some information about the Han Dynasty, including people from the Han Dynasty. Both the "Historical Records" and "Hanshu" compiled by myself stated that from Yunzhong to Liaodong, it was the matter of the governors of various counties...


    In other words, Qin Shihuang did not mobilize labor across the country to build the Great Wall as later generations of Fei Qian believed, but only relied on local governors to take charge. Moreover, there were original Great Walls built by Zhao and Yan in the area, and the governors of each county However, the local garrison was used to repair it.


    As for the records, Meng Tian led the construction of the section from Yuzhong via Gaoque to Yunzhong, and Zhao also built the Great Wall in this section. Meng Tian only repaired it, and the amount of the project was not very huge. Moreover, judging from the records, Meng Tian’s new Great Wall was also based on strongpoint-style pavilion fortifications, rather than a vast one-line Great Wall. What''s more, Meng Tian commanded an army of 300,000 at that time, and he was preparing to attack the Huns in the Northern Expedition, but it was all in vain because of the death of the First Emperor...


    Since ancient times, China’s border troubles have often come from the north. Therefore, the role of the Great Wall in the past dynasties has not only protected the country''s security, but also maintained Chinese culture. Because the terrain in the north is flat and the desert is endless, enemy cavalry can appear anywhere. Therefore, only by relying on this continuous great fortification can we "limit Hu Ma''s feet". But the Great Wall is not only for defense, it is also a base for preparing attacks. Within the Great Wall, you can train troops, store grain, and accumulate all military supplies. Without the protection of the Great Wall at the rear, several major military operations out of the fortress since the Qin and Han Dynasties, especially those by famous generals Wei Qing and Huo Qubing during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, would have been impossible.


    ?Hence, the Great Wall was not only the front line of defense for the farming peoples, but also the forward base for launching counterattacks against the nomadic peoples. It was not just for defensive purposes.


    ??More importantly, it is precisely because of the Great Wall that Chinese people have the concept of national borders and the awareness of territory...


    "The Great Wall was built in the north and the fence was guarded, but the Huns were more than 700 miles away, and the Hu people did not dare to go south to herd horses."


    ??When barbarians come, they must be beaten. Even during the Warring States Period, which was full of disputes, this was the philosophy pursued by the three kingdoms of Qin, Zhao and Yan...


    Feiqian looked at Yuvluo, looked at his obviously haggard face, smiled and said: "Chanyu, how are you?"


    Humphrey opened his mouth, but did not answer immediately, but fell silent.


    After a moment, Humphrey stood up and nodded slightly towards Fei Qian, then turned around and signaled to one of his guards...


    ??The guard took off a sword from his back, held the knife high above his head, walked to the city wall, faced Fei Qian and Hufro, and knelt down on the ground.


    Yu Fuluo said to Fei Qian: "Zhonglang...my king...I...was greedy for a while...I still wanted Zhonglang Haihan..."


    After finishing speaking, Humphrey bent down, lowered his head, and gave a deep breast-stroking salute to Fei.


    For a moment, the wind in the mountains roared past the Old Great Wall, blowing Fei Qian''s jersey fluttering, and also blew the three-color flag set up beside Fei Qian, whirring at the top of the Old Great Wall. …


    Zhang Fei stole Xiahou’s little lolita, and what happened next...


    what to do?


    Ugly daughter-in-law, oh, hairy-footed son-in-law always wants to meet someone...


    So I later brought a message to Xia Houyuan...


    Xia Houyuan was helpless and acquiesced in having a son-in-law like Zhang Fei, and then said: "Treat my daughter well. There is no such thing as divorce in the history of our family! There is only widowhood!"
