Chapter 43: Notes on Searching for Liao Of course, before leaving Huining, some necessary preparations must be made.
Whenever the Anglo-Saxons are weak in national strength and prepare to withdraw from a certain battlefield, they like to create a mess so as not to leave themselves with strong enemies in the future.
And the time-travelers also plan to follow suit: the current Song Dynasty is naturally unable to reach the north of the Great Wall, and the time-travelers also have no intention of staying in the wild Jurchen hinterland for a long time, so.
Creating a mess in the Northeast and causing chaos for the Jurchens before retreating became the best strategic decision for the Song Dynasty at the moment.
First of all, for those Bohai and Xi people who insisted on fighting on the spot, Guo Dashian encouraged them and left most of the captured Jin Dynasty weapons and food and baggage that could not be moved away, and then also took out The emperor of the Song Dynasty issued the short-term xuanzha before leaving and casually sealed it.
Piling up Jiedu envoys, military and horse envoys, and command envoys so that they can become famous and recruit the generals of the Song Dynasty of the same clan to go on an expedition.
They will usually be given a number of empty announcements.
Fill in the name, Nianjia, and they can be granted official titles.
It is to facilitate the commander to appoint officials and make wishes on the battlefield to recruit Tibetan tribes.
The more fiercely these "anti-government armed forces" fight in the Northeast, the more golden soldiers they attract, and the safer the return journey for others will be.
Secondly, although the Koreans and Mongolians also wanted to return to their hometowns, they were obviously not on the same path as the Song people.
Therefore, Guo Jing gave them most of the captured horses for transportation, and equipped them with enough weapons and dry food so that they could find a way to fight back all the way.
Then, there were about 6,000 Song and Khitan slaves who were going to act with Immortal Guo.
Obviously, the "Third New Tokyo", which was originally built as a five-story Japanese castle, could not accommodate so many people even if it was squeezed into a sardine can.
Fortunately, the general structure of a typical Japanese castle is that it is located at the highest point of the castle.
The castle tower is surrounded by a circle of walls, and the need for expansion was considered from the beginning.
Whenever the population in the city increases and the land is not enough, the city lord only needs to build an extra wall outside to enclose more land.
So, Doraemon took out the magical props in Huining and "started construction" on the spot, using the original castle as the "Honmaru", and then built two more walls, "Ninomaru" and "Manomaru" outside. , expanded the area of the entire Yunshang Floating Island ten times, and then built a bunch of simple houses between the city walls, and finally crammed in the six thousand people and the food utensils to sustain them.
Although the living conditions are definitely not good, they are at least much better than the shacks they lived in when they were slaves to the Jurchens.
Finally, in order to preserve the body of Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi, Doraemon specially built an ice coffin in the floating city.
Regrettably, despite all the preparations made before departure, the journey from the "Third New Tokyo" floating city to Kodun City was still full of twists and turns and not smooth: on the second day of departure from Huining, "Third New Tokyo" "Three New Tokyos" had just crossed the Greater Khingan Mountains when they encountered a violent The strong cold air flow from Siberia was forcefully blown far to the south.
Although the floating island on the base of "Third New Tokyo" has expanded ten times, the power system has not increased power accordingly.
Doraemon has no more power in his pocket.
There are too many Fengshen fans, which greatly weakens its wind resistance.
When Doraemon and the others finally managed to maneuver the floating city out of the airflow and successfully hovered, they found that the "Third New Tokyo" had been blown to the coast of the Bohai Sea, part of the Cangzhou border castle on the former Song and Liao border.
Seeing that the Song prisoners of war were not far from home, they were eager to return one by one.
They no longer wanted to accompany Guo Jing and the others to Mobei to find some Khitan people.
They all clamored to go home, making the travelers' heads as big as a bushel. .
Therefore, Doraemon, Guo Jing and others, who had higher integrity values, had to send them to the ground in batches, and distributed some weapons and dry food, so that these Song slaves who had suffered enough in the northern part of the Great Wall would not Falling on the last stretch of the road at home, Hebei is no longer stable.
Thieves are everywhere, bandits are rampant, and there are still a small group of golden soldiers fighting in the grass valley.
Unarmed travelers can't go on the road with peace of mind.
Just in case, in the spirit of doing good things until the end, Guo Jing also listened to the opinions of Yue Fei and Han Shizhong, formed a number of return teams based on the prefectures and counties where these people's hometowns are, and appointed temporary leaders of the return teams.
The leader even took out the seal issued by the emperor to him, the true protector of the country, and wrote a letter of introduction to the local government, lest they finally return home and be arrested as a Jin spy.
However, those who wanted to escape halfway were not only the Song slaves who escaped from Huining, but also the censor Zhongcheng Qin Hui who was in charge of the army.
After a fearful journey outside the Great Wall, this guy really didn't want to go to Mobei to blow the cold wind again.
He only wanted to escort the Jin Dynasty Emperor Wanyan Wu to Bianliang as a prisoner as soon as possible.
He even had a quarrel with Guo Jing over whether to send the body of Liao Tianzuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi to Bianliang to ask for credit.
After all, Song and Liao had been feuding enemies for hundreds of years. , even in the current context of the invasion of Jin soldiers, the people of Song Dynasty looked at Emperor Liao very delicately.
It took a lot of effort to arrange the carriages and horses to escort Qin Hui, as well as the prison car to escort Wanyan Wu to beg for money.
This mess delayed the flight for ten days, and by the time it took off again, it was already February.
Unfortunately, this time's luck was really bad.
Just as Doraemon flew the "Third New Tokyo" floating city over Yanshan Mountain, he encountered another snowstorm on the edge of the grassland.
The heavy snow that fell rapidly almost crushed the floating city to the point where it disintegrated in the air.
The cold air current of more than 40 degrees below zero made everyone fully appreciate the "coolness" coming from Siberia, and several people even froze to death.
When Doraemon was in a state of panic, Doraemon suddenly had an idea and discovered that he had made a very low-level omission: "Ah, I obviously have a magical weather controller in my pocket.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I just need to adjust the weather to a sunny day with no wind.
As for the temperature, let's adjust it to zero degrees Celsius first, otherwise it will be hot and cold all at once.
It’s also easy to catch typhoid and cold.”
Therefore, in the artificial weather, the second half of the journey to the floating city "Third New Tokyo" became relatively smooth.
In the early morning, the red light of the rising sun had just spread over the earth, but the chill of the night seemed to be driven away in an instant.
Taking advantage of the rare sunny days in this cold winter season, the "Third New Tokyo" floating city soared rapidly over the endless snowfields.
At this moment, there was not a single cloud in the sky that was half blue-violet and half orange-red.
The air was cold and dry, and there was a faint breeze.
Although it still made people shiver from the cold, it was much less severe than the howling and biting cold wind of the previous days.
Doraemon, Wang Qiu and Guo Jing stood together on the castle tower with a wide view, carefully observing the surrounding terrain through various instruments, and even launched mini reconnaissance satellites in an attempt to determine the current position and correct it.
Next route.
And between the "Ninomaru" and "Mirumaru" in the floating city, the Khitan people were lighting fires and holding a simple funeral for their compatriots who had frozen to death.
On the one hand, it is based on distance and distance, and on the other hand, it is also to prevent some people with evil intentions from attacking from within.
In this floating city, only hundreds of "direct troops" from the Song Dynasty are allowed to join the traversers.
Stay in "Honmaru"'s castle.
The slaves of the Song Dynasty who were rescued in Huining were restrained between the "Honmaru" and the "Ninomaru", while the Khitan people were arranged between the outermost "Sannomaru" and the "Ninomaru".
The further you go to the outer edge, the simpler the accommodation provided, and the worse the conditions for heating and cold protection.
Moreover, just in case, the walls of Honmaru, Ninomaru and Sannomaru were closed and isolated from each other to prevent anyone from rushing to the castle tower in one go.
Therefore, in the snowstorm last night, the outermost Khitan A tragedy occurred when a man's house collapsed under the weight of snow and he couldn't call for help.
He froze to death.
However, even though several people had just frozen to death in the blizzard, after everything was over, the remaining Khitan prisoners of war just silently collected the corpses of their compatriots, cremated them and put them into urns without shouting.
The psychological endurance of ancient people, especially those in war-torn times, is far beyond the imagination of pampered modern people.
After listening to the lamentations sung by the Khitans for a while, Wang Qiu returned his attention to the work of determining the orientation.
"Professor Guo, where are we now?
Are we still far from Ketun City?"
"Fortunately, this snowstorm has brought us closer to the city of Kodun."
Guo Jing said while marking the map with red and blue pencils.
"There are still about two hundred kilometers left.
If modern archaeology If the location of the Kodun City ruins surveyed by our family is correct."
"It should be correct.
I saw traces of human activities in that city from satellite photos.
But" Doraemon raised his round head from the satellite screen and looked back at the Liaotian Zuo Emperor Yelu Yanxi who was lying in the ice coffin.
Although he was famous for his mediocrity in history, he eventually became a prisoner of the Jurchen enemy. , but if you look at the appearance alone, the last emperor of the Liao Kingdom is actually very handsome and majestic.
"The emperor of the Khitan people is dead.
Is it really of any use if we take his body there?"
"If we bring a living Emperor of Liao there, we will be in big trouble."
Wang Qiu curled his lips at this, "As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.
If the emperor survives to Kedun City, how should he get along with Yelu Dashi who holds the real power?
Isn't he forcing someone to smash the sign of a loyal minister and commit regicide?
On the contrary, now we are taking Yelu Yanxi’s body to the He lamented that as long as Yelu Dashi squeezed out a few tears and cried twice, he could not only fulfill the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers, live up to the name of loyalty, but also clear the obstacles, inherit the Khitan throne and restore the country.
For this reason, he should thank us." oshow7:
