Chapter 647: Su Maoman

The army arrived in Yong'an Prefecture and continued in a qiē.

This time there was no decent army, and there were some tenacious people who spontaneously resisted, but the Song army was not a Jiaozhi army, and they were all armed, at least the chain mail on their bodies could not be cut into by kitchen knives in the hands of ordinary people.

And Yanda took them to train on the other side, so there were not too many such resistances.

So it was re-staged, but there was no more carnival of that night in Tiandefu City.

The people threw out their homes, and they were not obedient, and all their goods were plundered, and their grain, livestock, and poultry were taken away, and the rest of their houses were burned down. Then they were brought to the border and the people belonging to Yongzhou were screened out. Huang Jinman surrendered, handed over thousands of captive Han and Yongzhou people, in fact, every state capital, Jiaozhi took away more than 100,000 people, as well as some slaves bought before, and then distributed to the state capitals, more than 10,000 people in Thang Long City, and more than 1,000 people.

Tao Bi also screened more than 2,000 Yongzhou people in Langzhou.

There are also people who have been tortured to death and can no longer be found.

The rest began to build the Great Wall.

Wang Ju asked thousands of cavalry to rush back to Langzhou, rendezvous with Hebin's army, and captured prisoners and plundered them again from the four prefectures of Fuliangfu, Dingyuanzhou, Xianongzhou, and Nongshizhou. In particular, Fuliang Mansion, there is the benefit of seeking the river, the terrain is flat, it is a relatively large and relatively wealthy Dazhou Mansion in Jiaozhi, there are nearly 20,000 households, Guo Kui went south and walked on the west side of Fuliang Mansion, he just wanted to behead and quickly attack Thang Long City, so the march was fast, and there was not much damage to Fuliang Mansion.

As a result, Phu Ra quickly regained its prosperity.

He Bin's old trick is repeated. Bring Wang Ju's trick. Attack the city of Furafu. Many people fled. There are also some people in various dense mountains and forests, and the cost of arrest is too great, so they are spared. However, the vast majority of the people were taken to the border to build the Great Wall.

This Great Wall is so well built that it is inexplicable.

Because there was no need for this, at this time, the Song army had 60,000 soldiers and horses, and if they wanted, they could also transfer more troops from the country. In fact, they are ready to give up seeking the north of the river. With the Qiujiang River and the Baiteng River as the new boundary, this is a natural moat, isn't it good?

Can they figure it out...... That's weird!

But it does seem silly to do so.

Silang Prefecture is already a vast mountainous area. Further north is the famous Temo Road, a place where even the Song Dynasty had a headache, if anyone wants to go, then go.

Therefore, the Great Wall starts from the eastern part of Silang Prefecture and goes all the way to the seashore, and it is intertwined. Seven bends and eight turns, the length is close to 900 miles. And April is the rainy season. So Wang Ju had to make some workarounds.

Try to avoid the mountainous areas, there are forests in the mountainous areas, and they are dense tropical jungles, and you should also avoid the plains, because the plains are mostly distributed with dense river networks, and there are only a few large rivers, but those small rivers are also very deep.

Therefore, it is built along the edge of the plain along the sound of Langzhou. In order to save the project, it was stretched in a straight line as much as possible.

But it didn't take advantage of Cochin, although Langzhou expanded a part of it, but more than half of Sumaozhou was cut off, and it was lost to Cochin. In terms of production, Wang Ju picked up the barren areas together, but the rich plains gave up like fools.

With this pull, Shengsheng compressed the distance to 800 miles.

But it's still a long one.

So the scale of the Great Wall was reduced.

The thickness of the base of the ancient city wall generally reached more than three zhang, and the giant could reach more than five zhang. Wang Ju put it in one and a half zhang, that is, a little more than four meters. The width of the top is compressed to two meters, barely enough to keep two or three people able to stagger their bodies. The height is also not high, five meters is not enough.

But it was also strengthened, and the walls were erected, and it was necessary to preserve an open area in front of it, where the jungle was dense, so the trees were cut down, and two rows of fences were erected, and then the earth was poured into the fence and tamped with hammers.

The mud taken out of the front just forms a trench, and if there is a river nearby, it can also become a moat.

1670,000 people were taken captive, Wang Ju's approach was still relatively "benevolent", let the old man take care of the children, wash and cook, and say, as long as this city wall is repaired, you will return the Yongzhou people who were captured before, and we will let you go home. Of course, those who resist will be killed.

At the same time, they also let them build their own sheds to shelter themselves from the wind and rain, but they only sent some officers and soldiers to supervise. This is also for the sake of the project, the rainy season will come soon, and the amount of work is huge, although it is not the kind of brick and stone Great Wall in ancient China, but it can be spread down, and each citizen is also responsible for the completion of the three-and-a-half-meter city wall. The earthwork is not much, fifty earthwork, but it must be roughly tamped, and the higher it goes, the higher the difficulty, every five miles, it is necessary to make a Tibetan military building, the time is short, and there are some treacherous sections that cannot be avoided, and there are some areas where the jungle is extremely dense...... So the project is very urgent.

The news quickly spread to the ears of the Jiaozhi people, and Jiaozhi was even more at a loss, what is Wang Ju going to do?

If the boundaries are divided according to the agreement with Guo Kui, Jiaozhi is now taking advantage, and if the captive people are exchanged for these people, Jiaozhi will still take advantage. Unless there is still a grudge against the southern states, then the war has to continue. Otherwise, this condition, with the current state of Cochin, can also be accepted.

Is that really the case?

After receiving the information fed back by the scouts, the ministers of Jiaozhi were a little unconvinced, so they sent scouts to cross the river to investigate.

This time, the information received was more detailed.

The two main armies of the Song army were stationed in Tiandefu and Fuliangfu.

It was these two armies that made Jiaozhi helpless.

If you want to go on the Northern Expedition, it doesn't work if you have fewer troops, you have more troops, and after the remnants of this battle, it is the time of agricultural production, at most you can gather 100,000 soldiers and horses, but these two Song armies are so close that they can unite at any time, 100,000 soldiers and horses and maybe nearly half of them are new soldiers, as long as the Song army does not make the mistake of being strict, it is not an opponent at all. However, after this battle, everyone knew that the other party's Shaobao was not a sick cat, but a tiger that couldn't eat people's bones. Can he be expected to make a strict mistake?

In that year, the Northern Song Dynasty conquered the Northern Han Dynasty. It didn't work out. But because he killed and injured many Northern Han soldiers, he migrated to the people of Hedong, and the Liu family was also helpless in Taiyuan Mansion.

This is the situation now, and the strength of Jiaozhi is about the same as that of the Northern Han Dynasty back then, which is only equivalent to one-third of the strength of Western Xia.

Of course, if Wang Ju leads a large army, he will drill into the rainforest. Then don't say that the 60,000 army, even the 600,000 army, may also be defeated. In fact, Wang Ju still wished to use the soldiers again.

As long as Jiaozhi dares to use it, there will not be even a single chicken feather left in this country in the end.

However, Wang Ju will not take the initiative to cross the Qiujiang River to fight, it is difficult to steal chickens once, and he can't steal chickens twice.

At this time, Jiaozhi finally regretted it, why provoke this behemoth in the north?

destroyed a Yongzhou, Qinzhou, and Lianzhou, and countless states in the Song Dynasty, only a little bit of skin was injured. But the Song dynasty destroyed the six state capitals on both sides of Langzhou. Jiaozhi is greatly damaged.

That's the way it is now, but it's not going to die. Ten years at most, if the scar is good, the pain will be quickly forgotten. This Wang Ju knows best, in terms of destruction, he is still as powerful as the second ancestor's destruction?

But twenty years later, here it is again.

This country must be destroyed.

Wang Ju's idea, it is impossible for the Jiaozhi people to know. They looked at Wang Ju's actions and were really puzzled.

Because Wang Ju is indeed building the Great Wall, although this Great Wall is far from the strong and tall Great Wall in the north.

Although built along the edge of the plain, there are some rivers to be encountered. As for the small river, a wooden fence was erected to seal the river completely, and several barbed wire fences were laid down on the larger rivers, and there were many sharp thistles on the barbed wire.

So Jiaozhi is even more at a loss, it doesn't make sense for the Song people to do this......

"Shaobao, why do you use a wall to isolate us from the outside?" A very fierce-looking middle-aged man asked.

This group of people had to come from the representatives of Sumao Prefecture outside the wall.

Why? It's actually very simple, look at the history books, and then look at the other three words, Su Maoman, you know.

Among the southern states, Guangyuan Prefecture, Qiyuan Prefecture, and Sumao Prefecture are relatively large fetter states, but unlike Guangyuan Prefecture, Sumao Prefecture is mostly a plain area, so it is not only large, but also relatively wealthy, almost comparable to Fuliang Prefecture on the west side of Langzhou.

And its topography is very good, the northeast corner is connected to the southwest corner of Qinzhou, the north is Menzhou, and the north of Menzhou is Taipingzhai and Zuojiang area.

Therefore, Jiaozhi often colluded with the local people and invaded the Song realm. But why not attack from Langzhou? Where is the mountainous area, which is also an area with a headache in Jiaozhi, there are many contradictions in peacetime, so Guo Kui went south, and the leaders of the Golden Man immediately surrendered, and cooperated with the Song Dynasty to send troops, and also took the initiative to distribute Jiaozhi to the people of the Song Dynasty they had captive, and returned it to Guo Kui together.

The people of this state are too deeply related to Cochin.

Turning the pages of history, you can see many Su Maoman's invasions, Su Maoman's invasion of the border, and Su Maoman's coming......

When Wang Ju recruited troops, he focused on recruiting soldiers from the six southern states, one is to appease, which is also equivalent to buying security in a certain sense. The second is to be a hostage, although this hostage has little effect. Third, there are other arrangements, but they will not be done until the Great Wall is erected......

The cooperation of the chiefs of several states was not high, so Wang Ju increased the bargaining chips, which lasted until the beginning of last winter, and it was too late, and he had to catch up with the ship before the middle of winter.

Basically, each tribe has more or less produced some children, except for those old mountains and deep forests, there is no more. But there are still a few tribes that are still unruly, and that's okay, it's better to put them on the wall and deal with them later.

But there is one state that is an exception, that is, Sumao Prefecture, which sent someone to notify it, and if it was willing, it would be out, and if it was unwilling, it would be pulled down. As a result, except for a few children from the marginal areas bordering Menzhou, almost none of the remaining villages have children.

When Wang Ju erected the city wall, it was convenient for construction because of the terrain, and for this reason, he allocated sixty percent of the area of Sumao Prefecture outside the wall.

At the beginning, these people didn't think much about it, and they didn't know what the Song people were doing and why they were Song people, because they continued to treat themselves as toe people.

Later, the city wall was erected day by day, and finally understood what the Song Dynasty was going to do, which was to build the Great Wall.

If it was last year, it would have been fine, but this year I saw what happened to the people in the southern states, and these people are still building walls under their noses.

Only then did they panic one by one, and the villages gathered, elected representatives, and found Wang Ju to ask.

"According to what you mean, does this official have to give you an explanation for what he wants to do?"

"No," an old man on the side pushed the middle-aged man to the side, didn't let him say cruel words, grabbed it and said: "Shaobao, we are willing to send troops, but the Song Dynasty came and went in the past, and we were afraid of revenge, so we didn't dare to send troops." ”

"You are afraid of the revenge of the Jiaozhi people, so you are not afraid of our Great Song?"

"Great Song Renyi ......"

"Is Da Song Renjiu easy to bully!" Wang Ju suddenly slapped the table in anger and said.

"Zi'an, if you have something to say slowly," Tao Bi sang with a red face on the side, and then said: "Yes, our Great Song Dynasty is a dynasty of benevolence and righteousness, so we have been showing goodwill to Jiaozhi in order to seek peace, but Jiaozhi has repeatedly taught and refrained, so Shaobao used soldiers, one to avenge the revenge of Yongzhou, the second is that many people were taken captive by Jiaozhi, Shaobao sent envoys to beg several times, but was humiliated and returned, so they had to exchange the people for back, the third is to do it once and for all, not to cause border troubles, so to build the Great Wall, but to build the Great Wall requires a lot of manpower, so the people of Jiaozhi in these states are used to do service. As for you who did not go into the wall, it was because of the terrain. However, as a Song person, or a Jiaozhi person, is it important to you? ”

The question is, do you think you are the people of the Great Song Dynasty?

It's not even as good as those Murongs!

"We are willing to be Chinese people." The old man immediately said, of course, they don't want to be the people of the Song Dynasty, but outside the wall, what should I do if this young guard comes to plunder again that day?

"You are worried, you don't have to think so much, the old man and the young guard can guarantee that as long as you don't invade in the future, the officers and soldiers will not hurt you."

"Tao Gong, it's not proper, if you want us to ensure that the officers and soldiers don't harm them, we must hand over the Song Dynasty people in their villages."

"This is also true, ladies and gentlemen, the law of our dynasty prohibits the sale of tribal women, you used to buy and sell, or plunder, and in many villages there are our Great Song people as tribals and slaves, this is not good. As long as you hand them all over, the old man and the young guard will guarantee that the officers and soldiers will not use troops against you in the future. ”

Not too much of a condition.

But Wang Ju added: "If you go back, if you hurt those Song people before the officers and soldiers lead them, the fate of the people who repair the village now is your fate." ”

Everyone asked Wang Ju to send him away.

Wang Ju nodded at Yao Xiong and said, "Take the soldiers and horses over and find a few stockades as a typical deterrent." ”

"Whoa." Yao Xiong understood, and immediately went down to gather troops and horses.

Tao Bi said: "Zi'an, it is estimated that there are still many people who can't bring it back." ”

Wang Ju shook his head.

This is inevitable, some people let Jiaozhi be sent to remote tribes, where can they get it back?

In fact, at this point, I should be satisfied, first, by surprise, Jiaozhi thought that Wang Ju was a civil servant, and he was defenseless, so he let Wang Jushun succeed, including Li Changjie himself, and they were defeated again and again.

The second is that the target of the army is also out of the surprise of the Jiaozhi people, he is not a soldier to refer to the Shenglong Mansion, but the first to send troops to the Tiande Mansion, so the Jiaozhi hurriedly ordered the troops, with the heart against the unintentional, the strong army against the weak army, which is also the reason why the Jiaozhi was defeated again and again. When Wang Ju's strategic intentions were exposed, that is, plundering, captive people to build the Great Wall, Jiaozhi was no longer able to gather stronger troops to take revenge.

But what about this Great Wall...... No one can think of what it can do! (To be continued......)
