Chapter 523: Impregnable (I)


After the Great Song Dynasty moved its capital to Jiangnan, winter was approaching, and the temperature in the north began to drop; Snow has even begun to fall in the northernmost part of the Great Xia Empire, and every winter is the most difficult day for the Great Xia Kingdom, and the officials of the Great Xia Empire have long been familiar with the experience of fighting the White Plague, and their respective supplies have been fully prepared.

Summer Palace, inside the Imperial Study.

Jin Boxiong, who came from Guanzhong, was reporting the construction progress of the Guanzhong Palace to Li Liangzuo, and Jin Boxiong said to Li Liangzuo: "Your Majesty, after more than two years of construction, the Guanzhong Palace has been completed ninety, and the rest is some repair projects. ” Li Liangzuo thought about it and said: "It's called Ziwei Palace, Ziwei is surrounded by stars, and the Heavenly Palace is located; I am the Son of Heaven and the co-lord of the world, and I should correspond to the Emperor of Heaven, and my palace should also correspond to the Heavenly Palace."

"Your Majesty, there is another matter to ask Your Majesty to give a name to the gate of the palace, which represents the face of the Great Xia Empire."

Jin Boxiong said to Li Liangzuo.

"Let's call it Minghuimen," Li Liangzuo said after thinking about it; "Now that my Great Xia Empire is thriving, the future is bright, and its future will be even more brilliant."

"Your Majesty, the names of the other palaces, you see" "You can look at it, there are some names that don't need to be changed, and you can use the name of the current palace."

"Yes, Wechen understands."

Kim Boxiong said; "Your Majesty is now ready to move in Ziwei Palace, do you think you should go and see if you should go and see."

"It's time to take a look."

Li Liangzuo said; "In a few days, I will go south to Guanzhong."

A few days later, Li Liangzuo told the ministers in the court meeting that he was going to tour the south of the pass, this southern tour is different from the past, not only Li Liangzuo went alone, but the concubines and princesses of Li Liangzuo's harem will go, which is no different from the relocation of the royal family, and the entire southern tour of the people and horses plus the guards reached tens of thousands; Although it is said to be a southern tour, it is actually almost the same as moving the capital, and some court officials also followed Li Liangzuo south.

Li Liangzuo's southern tour can only be a carriage, in addition to so many old and weak women and children, Li Liangzuo's road to the south can be described as a long way to go for nearly a month before entering Guanzhong, at this time everything in Ziwei Palace has been prepared, just waiting for Li Liangzuo to move in, from Weiqiao City across Weishui to the south through Lintong is the location of Ziwei Palace, and at this time Qin King Li Wuzheng led the civil and military officials of Guanzhong Province to wait for Li Liangzuo in Lintong.

"Son-in-law Li Wu to see his father, long live my emperor, long live, long live" Li Wu saw Li Liangzuo's car and knelt down and saluted.

"Flatten, all Aiqing, get up."

"Your Majesty" Li Liangzuo got down from the carriage and asked Li Wu, "Wu'er, how far is the palace from here?"

"Father, after Lintong, it will be more than sixty miles to the south, but there is a canal to cross in the middle."

Li Wu said to Li Liangzuo.

"The herald will rest overnight in Lintong today, and go to Ziwei Palace tomorrow."

"Yes, the minion commands."

Xiao Zhuozi took the military order.

In Li Liangzuo's trip at night, Li Wu, the king of Qin, brought the princess of Qin to greet Li Liangzuo and Wuzang Feixue, and when he saw the two of them coming, Li Liangzuo said with a smile: "You two came just in time, accompany me and your mother to eat together." ” "Emperor Xie" After he was full of wine and food, Li Liangzuo said to Li Wu: "Wu'er, you come to the study with me, I have something to tell you." ” "Yes, Father."

After walking to the study and sitting down, Li Liangzuo asked Li Wu: "Wu'er, you have been stationed in Guanzhong for several years, do you know anything about the fortifications of the Western Front of the Great Song Dynasty?"

"Father, the son once personally led people to investigate, the western defense line of the Great Song Dynasty can be said to be impregnable under the construction of the master road, although the Great Song Dynasty did not build the Great Wall in the west, but built a fortress at each distance, and built a pass in the key place, and at the same time stored a large amount of grain and grass in each pass and fortress, and the city defense equipment, if it is a strong attack, our army will suffer heavy losses."

"What materials were used to build the passes and fortresses of the Song army?"

asked Li Wu.

"Father, all of them are built with rammed earth, and then wrapped in blue bricks on the outside, and in some key cities, they are built with bluestone," Li Wu reported to Li Liangzuo one by one.

"After a while, you will personally accompany me to see the castles built by the Song army."

"Father, no, this is too dangerous, if the Song people find out, it will be bad."

"Lao Tzu is not old yet, I don't believe you, the kid is compared with Lao Tzu," Li Liangzuo said with a glare.

"Father, you are wise and martial, and your sons and ministers can't compare."

Li Wu said with a smirk.

"Alright, don't be a hippie kid."

Li Liangzuo said with a serious face; "Lao Tzu came to Guanzhong this time not only to enjoy happiness, you have been training the army for a few years, I want to test the results of your military training, if you don't meet the standard, you kid, the governor of the three provinces, don't do it."

"Please rest assured that the 100,000 Dragon Xiang Army has been trained and is waiting for the Emperor to review it at any time."

"Not only the Longxiang Legion, but also the soldiers of the big prefectures in various places will also conduct spot checks; Guanzhong is the rear foundation of our attack on the Great Song Dynasty, and you must make all preparations. ” "Yes, Erchen understands, please rest assured."

Li Liangzuo and Li Wu talked a lot this night, as the person in charge of half of the Great Xia Empire, compared with the previous Li Wu in the past two years, he is also more mature, whether it is military, political or diplomatic, Li Wu has his own unique opinions, and during his tenure as the governor of the three provinces, the three provinces are governed in an orderly manner, and Li Liangzuo is also very pleased to arrive.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Liangzuo took his family to continue south, and finally arrived at Ziwei Palace at sunset, reflecting the afterglow of the sunset, the entire Ziwei Palace is like a fairyland on earth, this is the only large-scale royal project in history, in front of the huge Minghui Gate, everyone seems very small, for this palace that has cost a lot of money to build Li Liangzuo is very fond of it, because only such a palace can be worthy of Li Liangzuo's current identity, in order to support the supreme majesty of the Great Xia Empire.

"The ministers welcome His Majesty into the palace" Li Liangzuo got off the carriage, rode a war horse and walked towards the Ziwei Palace, and through the final door hole of the Minghui Gate, Li Liangzuo saw the main hall of the entire Minghui Palace, the name of the main hall is still Hanyuan Palace, but its scale is several times larger than the Hanyuan Hall of Xingqing Mansion, and the entire Ziwei Palace reveals a strict hierarchy everywhere, but it is extremely exquisite and brilliant; The scale of the entire Ziwei Palace is six times that of the Forbidden City today, and the entire Ziwei Palace is an irregular rectangle that is narrow from east to west and wide from north to south, and its style is basically the same as the original design, but with slight adjustments.

From this moment on, Li Liangzuo officially moved into Ziwei Palace, although Li Liangzuo did not announce the relocation of the capital here, but from this day on, the political center of the Great Xia Empire has basically shifted here, and at the same time, some princes and nobles began to build their own mansions around the east and west sides of Ziwei Palace, and formed a scale in the next few years.
