Chapter 1086
The Jialing River is mighty, flowing out from Daiwang Mountain in Fengxian County, Shaanxi Province at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains. Because it flows through the Jialing Valley in the northeast of Fengxian County, Shaanxi, it is named Jialing Water, and the people call it Jialing River.
The water of the Jialing River flows from west to east, through Shaanxi and Gansu provinces, and then enters Sichuan. When it flows through Chongqing Prefecture, the Sichuan people call it Yushui, so Chongqing Mansion is also called "Chongqing".
Chongqing Prefecture has a dangerous terrain, and the Yangtze River runs through it from west to east. The Jialing River flows into the Yangtze River at Chaotianmen Wharf in Chongqing Prefecture. The two rivers converge here, the water potential is very great, and the sound of the river rushing is shocking, and the momentum is extremely amazing.
Chaotianmen Wharf is located at the confluence of the Jialing River and the Yangtze River in the northeast of Chongqing Prefecture, and is the largest wharf in Chongqing Prefecture. There is a huge stone archway built on the shore of the wharf, and there are four big characters of "Ancient Chongqing Xiongguan" written on it.
Chongqing Prefecture is the center of the western section of the Yangtze River, and has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times. During the Three Kingdoms period, Chongqing Prefecture was called Jiangzhou, which was occupied by Liu Biao, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei. Later, Liu Bei entered Sichuan, captured Yizhou, and left Guan Yu to guard Jingzhou. After Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao and occupied Hanzhong, Guan Yu also commanded a large army to attack Xiangfan in the north, but won first and then lost, and was finally captured and killed by Sun Quan in Maicheng, and Eastern Wu captured Jingzhou. In order to avenge Guan Yu, Liu Bei wanted to recapture Jingzhou, raise all the troops in Shuzhong, and go straight to Eastern Wu. The military advisor Zhuge Liang and the general Zhao Yun tried their best to stop this. Zhao Yun even admonished Liu Bei, saying that the national thief was Cao Wei, not Sun Quan, as long as the Wei State was destroyed first, the Wu State would naturally surrender. Although Cao Cao is now dead, his son Cao Pi still usurps the throne of Wei and controls the country. The king of Han should conform to the will of the people, seek to capture Guanzhong as soon as possible, and station troops in the upper reaches of the Yellow River and Weishui to crusade against Cao Wei's rebellious ministers and thieves, and the loyal and righteous people in the Kanto region will definitely respond in groups. Cao Wei should not be ignored and confronted by Eastern Wu. Once a war with Eastern Wu started, I was afraid that the war would be protracted and would inevitably be taken advantage of by Cao Wei.
When Liu Bei saw Zhao Yunjin's advice, not only did he not listen, but he also felt a problem in his heart. When he led the army to the expedition, he did not take Zhao Yun with him, but left Zhao Yun in Jiangzhou to buy grain, grass and ordnance, thinking that he would respond later. At that time, the Shu Han soldiers were strong and strong, and Liu Bei thought that he would win the Eastern Wu. abandoned Zhao Yun and didn't use it, so he naturally deliberately snubbed the veteran. It's just that Zhao Yun didn't complain, and after arriving in Jiangzhou, he did his best to procure and transport grain, grass and ordnance for Liu Bei's army. Later, Liu Bei clashed with Lu Xun, the governor of Eastern Wu, and in the first battle of Yiling, Lu Xun burned the company camp, Liu Bei was defeated, and fled back to the White Emperor City in a hurry. After Zhao Yun heard the news, he hurriedly led the Jiangzhou soldiers and horses to respond. Lu Xun had always been worried that Cao Pi would take the opportunity to attack Eastern Wu, and seeing that Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses had arrived in the White Emperor City, it was impossible to capture and kill Liu Bei. He also received an urgent report that Cao Wei's army had moved south to attack Wu, so he led his troops and horses back to Eastern Wu.
Although Zhao Yun was stationed in Jiangzhou for only a year, he spent great effort to renovate the city wall and fortress, and for thousands of years after that, there are still many stories of him in Jiangzhou. Jiangzhou was renamed Chongqing during the Song Dynasty and was an important western border town in the Song Dynasty, and the imperial court strengthened the original city walls, making the defense of Chongqing more stable. At that time, there were a total of 17 gates in this fortified city, and the place where the Chaotian Gate was located was one of the 17 ancient city gates. Later, the Jin State invaded Bianliang, Tokyo, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished. However, Chongqing Mansion has been firmly guarded by the Song army, and the Jin State has never been able to conquer it. After Song Gaozong was partial to Lin'an, whenever there was a messenger from the Yangtze River to pass the decree, the officials of Chongqing Prefecture had to welcome the envoy here, so it was named Chaotianmen.
In the last years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Yuan army repeatedly besieged Chongqing Mansion and suffered heavy casualties, and was never able to conquer this place. Later, the Yuan Dynasty won the world, and in order to prevent the Han from rebelling, they demolished the Xiongguan passes everywhere in the world, and the ancient city of Chongqing was naturally not spared. The Yuan army demolished all the ancient city walls of Chongqing, and the Chaotianmen was also gone, leaving only a huge stone archway, standing on the river bank, overlooking the surging river, and flowing to the east day and night.
On this day, the sky was overcast, the wind was cold, and it looked like it was about to snow. It's just that the river outside Chaotianmen Wharf is still lined with sails and boats. I saw that the wharves by the river were dense, and people walked like ants. There are many streets and alleys along the riverbank on both sides of Chaotianmen, and many places are lively and marketable. Inside the Chaotian Gate are streets and alleys, and the roads extend in all directions. However, since ancient times, the largest wharf facing Chaotianmen has always forbidden civilian ships to dock. This is not to welcome the Qincha, but the government is worried that there will be outlaws here to cause trouble, which will inevitably cause chaos. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, although this ban was lifted, the government still sent people to guard here. Civilian ships can only dock at various small wharves on both sides of Chaotianmen, and the largest and best wharves are still reserved for official ships.
Li Qiufeng poked his head out of a wooden sailboat on the river and looked at the tall Chaotianmen stone archway. The boss of the ship, who was preparing to collect the sails on the deck, said with a smile: "This is the first time that the master has come to our Chongqing Mansion." When you see the stone archway, you can count it as if you have arrived in Chongqing Mansion. You can go ashore from Chaotianmen Wharf, and you can enter the city if you can't walk half a mile. This Chongqing Fushan is a city, and the city is a mountain, whether you can enter the city or not, but there is no big difference. If you still want to use a boat, you can come to this dock to find me Wei Laosi. ”
At this time, more than 20 days have passed since Li Qiufeng left Xiuwu County. That night, he went to the south gate of Xiuwu County, met with Liu Yong, Xu Chenghe, Chu Danyang and others, and talked about the City God Temple in detail, and everyone sighed. Liu Yong and the others saw that Li Qiufeng was safe and sound, that the Japanese had broken up again, and that Xiuwu County was firmly controlled by Jinyiwei, so they didn't want to have another incident. It was the leaders of the various sects that immediately led the disciples to disperse. Liu Yong originally wanted Li Qiufeng to go back to Huashan with him, but Li Qiufeng said that there was something wrong and separated from Liu Yong and others outside Xiuwu County. After that, he traveled all the way south, passing through Luoyang, Nanyang, and Xiangyang, and finally boarded a sailboat at Jingzhou Wharf that turned around Chongqing Mansion and headed straight for Chongqing Mansion.
The road is not just one day, although the boat is bumpy on the river to the west, quite hard, but the strong autumn wind in this year has been through many hardships and dangers, consuming mental energy, but in the more than ten days on the boat, eat enough, sleep soundly, very relaxed and happy. At this time, when I heard the boat boss talk about Chongqing Mansion, I was a little reluctant to do so.
When Li Qiufeng boarded the boat in Jingzhou, there were already more than a dozen guests on board. The boss didn't want to let anyone on board again. However, Li Qiufeng took out three silver ingots, which were enough for fifteen taels of silver, and the boat boss saw that the money was open, and agreed when he boarded. At this time, the boat will dock, and the boss of the boat is reluctant to let this young man with a generous shot, and repeatedly tells Li Qiufeng that if he wants to go elsewhere by boat, he must come to Chaotianmen Wharf to find him.
After the ship docked, Li Qiufeng climbed the stone steps on the shore, but he felt his legs tremble slightly, and the stone steps under his feet seemed to be shaking. He knew that it was because he had lived on the boat for more than ten days, and his body was used to the ups and downs of the river, but it was not a big deal. It was he who took a deep breath and slowly walked out of the dock.
Chongqing Mansion is built on a mountain, and the terrain is rugged, and the flat ground is almost invisible. Li Qiufeng is no stranger to Chongqing Mansion, but it is the first time he has landed from Chaotianmen. After he walked into Chaotianmen, he asked passers-by where he was going, and then walked along the winding stone road to the city.
After Li Qiufeng entered the city, he made a circle from the south of the city, and soon arrived at the "Liuju Lane" that he had to pass through when he came to Chongqing Mansion before, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He traveled north along Liuju Lane. The alley winds its way, and although it goes north at first, after a few turns, it goes east. After walking for more than half an hour, a small temple suddenly appeared in front of me. The temple is surrounded by brick houses and stilted buildings, making it look even more low and shabby. There was no figure in front of the temple gate, only two old trees swaying in the cold wind, and the dead branches rattled, which added a bit of desolation.
Li Qiufeng walked to the temple gate and knocked lightly on the door a few times. After a while, I could only hear footsteps from inside the door, followed by an old voice saying, "Who?"
Li Qiufeng said respectfully: "Is it Uncle Huang? ”
Hearing only a "creak", the temple door has been opened inward, and an old man with white hair is standing inside the door. After seeing Li Qiufeng, a childlike smile appeared on his wrinkled face, and he said, "This year is really strange. Your master hasn't shown up, and I'm worried about what happened on the way. Now that you've finally arrived, half of my heart has been relieved. ”
