It is not an easy thing to dig a royal tomb, especially the indescribable identity of Yanbei at the moment, although his mausoleum is a royal mausoleum, but these people who are planning for it all invariably set the specifications of this mausoleum as the imperial mausoleum in their hearts, and it is the ancestral emperor's mausoleum without any trespassing, because this is not only the mausoleum of Yanbei, but also the long mausoleum of Zhao State.

The mausoleum of the founding emperor is named after Chang, which is the long tomb of Jiang Jin following the example of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Jiang Jin does not care whether Liu Bang's mausoleum is named Chang because it is close to Chang'an or Changping's hometown or is located on Changshan Mountain...... In his eyes, long is long (zhang). Therefore, this mausoleum, which has not yet broken ground, already has a name, which can be called both Changling and Ziling.

Skilled craftsmen from all over the north still rushed to Zhao in the dust, even though they knew that this was probably the last job they would take over in their lifetimes, but they had no choice, because the king's order could not be violated. The reason why it is called the last job of his life is not that the Yan clan will seal the craftsmen inside after building the mausoleum...... Although Jiang Jin did have the idea of killing people at first, which was in line with his heart, but later as he learned more and more about building mausoleums, this idea disappeared in his heart.

Even if Yanbei has done his best to hand over professional matters to professional people, whether it is Jiang Jin or Lu Bu, they are just professional tomb robbers, even if they are thieves who specialize in digging imperial tombs, Lu Bu knows how to destroy an imperial tomb, and the organs are exhausted; Jiang Jin knew how to quietly enter the underground palace and probe for things; But they didn't know much about how to build an imperial tomb.

In that year, Emperor Xiaowu levied the world's conscription, with nearly 100,000 people, 30% of taxes, and 53 years to repair Maoling. And Lu Bu excavated the Maoling of Emperor Xiaowu, and 5,000 troops rushed into Shinto, but it took only half a month...... Swarmed, excavated, destroyed corpses, looted treasures, and left nothing.

Destruction and creation are two different things.

Jiang Jin and the others figured out this matter, and then looked at those old craftsmen who were over half a hundred years old, and their eyes were much kinder. Fifty-three years, no one can live fifty-three years, lest none of the apprentices with these craftsmen live for fifty-three years, which is already a group of dead men, and in the last years of their lives, the three thousand craftsmen they have been levied will be well fed and served worthy of their craft.

There is no goods, they don't need them, and when they enter the Purple Mountain, no one will go out.

Jiang Jin only knew at this time what he was going to do in the north of Zhao Capital, first of all...... They will spend half a year cutting wood and splitting stones from the Purple Mountain by means of burning axes and chiseling, and then build a city under the Purple Mountain, Ziling City.

Enough food, grass, clothing and food for 100,000 people are transported by Jizhou month by month; Houses and markets that are enough for 100,000 people to live in and live in were built by their own hands. When this is done, the war in the south should have been pacified, and another 20,000 soldiers and horses will be recruited, and the entrance to the Ziling and the mountain will be locked, and all contact between the city and the outside world will be completely severed, and all the craftsmen will be optimistic, and then the people who know nothing will complete the work that has been prepared according to the various disconnected tombs.

This matter was suggested by Tian Feng, but now Jiang Jin seems that Tian Yuanhao does not understand what building a mausoleum is, and this kind of work is not something that tens of thousands of people can complete in just three and five years, at least twenty years!

Zhao Guo has Yanbei in the town, and Tian Feng, Fu Zhu and others are in charge, and they are extremely stable, whether it is the autumn harvest or the requisition of craftsmen to plan the royal tomb, it is carried out in an orderly manner. In Yuzhou, south of the Yellow River, Zhang Liao, who had captured Chen for three months, did not have the peace of the northern generals, and at this time the cavalry general of Zhao was looking at the topographical map in the military tent with great interest.

"Autumn is coming, and the rainy season in the north and south of the Huai River has arrived."

In the second year of Xinghe, Zhang Liao led the vanguard troops to cross the Yellow River, but the Yan army in the rear was trapped in Jizhou due to the arrival of the rainy season. If it weren't for his powerful tactics, the Yan clan's vast southern expedition of 100,000 soldiers and horses would have just begun, and they would have been stillborn due to this heavy rain.

From then on, Zhang Liao and many Yan generals paid more attention to hydrology and timing, especially in the vast and unfamiliar area south of the Yellow River.

Hard work pays off, even if it is a day, there are traces to follow. The rainy season runs from north to south in May every year, with May, June and July in Jizhou, August in Yanzhou, and September in Henan. Right now...... It's going to be Runan's turn.

In the past few months, Zhang Liao garrisoned the land of Chen and Liang, but due to the heavy rain in Yanzhou, the roads were muddy and the baggage was unfavorable, and it was difficult to support the supply needed for long-distance operations. Therefore, for Zhang Liao, he was forced to change from an advantage to a disadvantage from May onwards, which gave Cao Cao a chance to recuperate.

However, seeing that the heavy rain in Chen Guo and Liang Guo has ended, the next thing is Runan, as long as Runan falls into the rainy season, even the sky is helping him.

Zhang Liao just looked at the topographic map and muttered, but after a few breaths, the majestic figure with a helmet and armor stepped into the room, clasped his fists and arched his hands: "General, the grain and grass in Chenliang County have been checked, and about two percent of this year's harvest is rotten in the ground, and two of the ones collected in the granary are moldy, and the remaining grain and grass are not enough to supply our army for the southern expedition." ”

The person who came is Zhang Liao's subordinate general Beiyan, this Zhao Wangxiang party who was born in Liaodong Academy, fought effectively in Zhang Liao's attack on Yanzhou, and now he has worshiped Zhao Guo's partial general, and the former captain is now walking in the camp to be called a general, not to mention that the Liaodong people from the same township are the real Zhao Guoxun in the eyes of others.

For a whole year, the main army led by Zhang Liao subdued the Chen and Liang states in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and the momentum was unmatched for a while. However, this year's Zhang Liao's fortune is obviously a little worse, he occupies the front line of Chen, Liang and Liang, this year is a normal year, but stained with the light of Chen Xiang Luo Jun in the past, Chen Guo did not delay the agricultural time this year, the harvest was originally just enough for the soldiers and horses of the cavalry general to march south, but because of the geographical advantage, this year's harvest is just in time for the rainy season, and they are not enough to pay attention to these soldiers, and forty percent of the grain harvested has been soaked in the rain.

"It's okay, send someone to Yanzhou to deliver a message, and then send grain and grass over, and the altar can be built?"

Zhang Liao doesn't care about the lack of grain and grass, as long as there is sixty percent of Chen Guo's grain, it is enough for him to support for a while, and it is the best policy to eat and fight the enemy for the sake of the fighter, although Chen Guo's grain has been soaked by rain, but Cao Cao has already helped him harvest the grain and grass in Runan...... Even if it doesn't work, after two months, Yanzhou will also send the baggage.

After receiving the progress of Beiyan's restoration of the altar construction, Zhang Liao nodded noncommittally, waved his hand and said, "Don't let the soldiers practice recently, you must have enough meat soup for wine and food." Send someone to call Gao and Cheng several generals to discuss the matter! ”
