The Sacred Ding Chapter 201: Sion City Ridge Road Academy
(Continue one more)
Sent away the riding captain Zhao Rong who led the troops and horses to Qin Tongguan, Chen Hai invited Dong Pan, Wu Xiong, Dong Ning and others to enter Beicang City of Tong as guests.
Yao Qitai, Yao Xuan's father and son became suspicious to see through the mystery set up by the Refugee Army in Yehuling. It has only been a month and a half, and a total of more than 400,000 prisoners of war and hungry people are still being relocated abroad.
Tongbei Dacang is the most important transfer node. A large number of hungry people and prisoners of war must first be gathered in Tongbei Dacang, and then repatriated to their hometown for resettlement, or demoted to slaves, and supplemented to the official mines. , Foundry, farm work, or rewarding meritorious generals as trophies.
There will inevitably be some chaos inside and outside the warehouse. Numerous frail hungry people and prisoners of war, numb or hiding or lying at the foot of the city wall, are resigned to wait for the next arrangement. It seems that there is no starvation or sickness. Still struggling—the officials in Cangcheng directly marked their next whereabouts on their clothes. Dong Pan and the others walked along the road, and they could see that a large number of people were going directly to Juquanling for resettlement.
Seeing that most people are so weak that they will fall to death at any time, Dong Pan asked: "Juquanling really wants to accept these prisoners of war?"
"Yes," Chen Hai sighed slightly, and said, "These prisoners of war are demoted to slaves, but no general in the army is willing to receive them as trophies, and Tongbei Dacang really wants to immediately divide these weak people into various groups. Mines and Guantians are used as hard labor. Gong is afraid that most people will not live for two or three years. Juquanling has no fields, but next to the big lake, there are enough fish and animals to hunt. Another Tongbei has survived the famine and food There is no such shortage, so I can only send it to Juquanling first to raise... Unreasonable killing is not my original wish to practice warcraft and martial arts."
Dong Pan and Wu Xiong are all generals killed in the blood and iron. They don't know how much blood is stained in their hands. They don't care about Chen Hai, whose hands are also stained with blood, but Dong Ning is moved. Perhaps it was because of her weak temperament. She always felt that the hungry people couldn’t help, and gathering mutinies to raid the countryside was also a last resort. The prisoners of war in front of her were so weak that if Chen Haizhen didn’t take action, she was afraid that few people would survive. year.
"I heard that you made a lot of momentum in Juquanling, but you haven't had a chance to be a guest..." Dong Pan said.
"Dong Ye and the county chief do not dislike them, and many senior brothers can live in Juquanling for a while; Yanjing is afraid that it will not stop for a while, and everyone is afraid that it will be a while. Time to return to Yanjing." Chen Hai said.
The war in Tongbei was officially over. Wen Boyuan and Fan Chun led the main force of the Xiyuan Army to go south, and joined the British King Yingshu, to force Yanjing City, Daoyabing and Dong Ning and other Hexi children, one thousand taels. More than a hundred people were withdrawn from Leiyang Valley to Tongbeifu City.
Although Tongbei and Nanzhang Zhufu counties have newly appointed local officials, all the materials that Zhufu counties can withhold before are used for famine relief, and it is impossible to repair the cities destroyed by the rebels.
Even in the city of Tongbei Fu, there are broken walls everywhere. At least after the autumn of next year, the place will have the financial resources to rebuild the city. Although Dong Pan and Wu Xiong led their troops to withdraw to the city of Tongbei, they actually found a camp on the north bank of the Tonghe River, and the conditions were still very difficult.
Even if Dong Pan’s words did not mean temptation, Chen Hai, as a disciple of Hexi, since he has a foundation in Tongbei, he naturally can’t sit and watch the same door and continue to sleep and eat. Naturally, everyone is invited to live in Juquan during this time. Linggo.
Although Juquanling has to house forty to fifty thousand prisoners of war at this time, it is still a mess, but it is in better condition than Tongbei City Mansion; more importantly, Juquanling has a few spiritual springs, and the heavens and the earth are full of spiritual energy. Take a break so that everyone's practice will not be delayed.
Dong Pan continued: "I just received a letter from the elder son. The elder son is still very confident in the emperor's government. But it is not our boast that you, Ran Hu, Zhou Jun, and Li Yulin are all my Hexi children. The court can upset the chaos and turbulence, you really have a lot of credit. I think the court will not give a light to the reward after everything is settled. Maybe there are other rewards for Hexi. The elder son does not care about other rewards. , I thought that Tai Wei Zong might be able to set up a Taoist school outside of Hexi, and that Hexi disciples could also have a place to stay outside of Hexi. I went to see His Royal Highness the King of England two days ago, but I promised us to be in Qin Tongshan first Find a place to stay, but where is Qin Tongshan suitable? Although the son wants me to discuss with Wu Xiong and the princess, I feel it necessary to ask your opinion..."
The fact that Taiweizong was able to set up a Taoist temple outside of Hexi actually meant that Dong and Taiweizong officially extended their tentacles outside of Hexi. Chen Hai did not expect that Dong Pan disappeared for two days. It turned out to be on behalf of Dong. Shi, I went to negotiate with Ying Wang Yingshu.
As Taiweizong’s first Taoist temple outside of Hexi, its significance is not trivial. The prince and even Wuwei Shenhou himself should have made it clear, but Dong Pan ran over and asked him to discuss it?
Chen Hai is not so ignorant of the sky and earth, knowing that he is still testing his attitude.
Although Dong Pan didn't directly clarify the words at this time, he was probably really worried that he had completely taken refuge in Yingshu that dog thief, and since then he is no longer in the same mind with Hexi.
The Dong family is not a good person, but Chen Hai would not be a running dog whose spirits are controlled by the narrative. Following Dong Pan’s tone, he said joyfully: "His Royal Highness really agreed to the gatekeeper of the Taoist Academy. Built to Qintong Mountain? This is really a great event worth celebrating. If the Zongmen does not think that Tongbei Mansion is located in a corner and the conditions are simple, there is a Lion City Ridge adjacent to Juquan Ridge, which can be said to be a rare spirit. The choice of Tiandong Mansion. This Shichengling is also close to the waterway of Tonghe. Ordinary disciples can travel to and from the northern foot of Qintong Mountain by waterway. In the future, any children with extraordinary qualifications in Juquanling can be sent directly You don’t have to go to Yulong Mountain or Taiwei Mountain to continue to work for Hexi..."
Dong Pan had previously worried that Chen Hai would be completely drawn to Yingshu by Yingshu.
In the past, many Hexi disciples served in Yanjing and got close to other forces. As long as Hexi’s interests were not harmed, it could be used as a hub for strengthening ties between Hexi and other clans. This is a very normal thing. Even marriages are extremely common.
However, Chen Hai's value cannot be compared with ordinary disciples.
Not to mention the value of the military training record, Chen Hai, as the first disciple of the Northwest Territories, has reached the level of enlightenment and the true meaning of martial arts. In the future, if he has the opportunity to cultivate Dao Dan, he must not easily fall into others' concubine.
For such an outstanding disciple, Taiweizong has only seen more than a dozen people for more than a hundred years. At this time, all are the mainstays of Hexi. If they are drawn to the past, how much will Hexi lose?
It was only Chen Haijin who really emerged in Yanjing's examination of Xuegongwei. After that, he took advantage of the situation and rose too quickly. At this time, he has become a direct line of Wen Boyuan. In addition to Zhaoyang Pavilion and Hou Chenlie, most of them protect the general mansion. There was no time for further benefit binding with Chen Hai.
Before, Chen Hai had a very bad relationship with the children of the Du and Chai families in Hexi. In fact, Dong Pan was not the only one in Hexi who worried that Chen Hai would leave Hexi, and was completely drawn over by Wen Boyuan and Yingshu Wang.
At this time, Hexi couldn't tear himself apart with Wen Boyuan and Yingshu, and forced Chen Hai to return to Hexi to practice.
The first Taoyuan to be located in Tongbei is too biased, but even if it is to ensure that Chen Hai is always loyal to Hexi, it is worthwhile to locate the Taoyuan in Tongbei; and Chen Hai said All the military powers granted were recorded in the "Training Records", but the ghost knew how many private goods Chen Hai had secreted and did not reveal it?
Chen Hai was able to express his position without hesitation at this time, but Dong Pan unloaded a big stone in his heart, otherwise he really didn't know how to confess to the son.

Lion City Ridge is located in the depths of the Jiuling Mountains more than 80 miles southwest of Juquan Ridge. Although there are spirit springs overflowing, it is a good Lingtian Cave Mansion, but because of its terrain, it is more steep and remote than Juquan Ridge. Much~IndoMTL.com~Mountain high road insurance, has not been taken by any clan.
In the early stage, those who were able to enter Qin Tongshan to fight for the land, after all, were still in the minority, including the eight clans of Jing County, most of the clans were still waiting and watching.
Taiweizong wants to open a Taoist school in Qintong Mountain. The Shichengling side is a little more remote, but it won't get in the way too much. Cha Cha has also been entrenched by a group of bandits for several years. There is still a ruined village. Simply clean up, you can directly recruit disciples from Tongbei Prefecture to enter the mountain to practice.
Chen Hai accompanied Dong Pan, Wu Xiong, Pei Jinhua, Dong Ning, Sun Buhui and others through the mountains and ridges, and rushed to Shicheng Ridge to observe the terrain. Standing on the top of Shicheng Ridge and looking at the sea of clouds, Chen Hai knew that The prefectures in the northern foothills of Qintong Mountain recruit disciples to practice cultivation. This is the greatest privilege and significance of opening a Taoist school.
Continuously recruiting disciples from the local area, disciples who succeed in cultivation and then return to the world to make contributions, maybe it only takes 20 to 30 years of business, disciples from the Taoist school will establish hundreds of large and small new clans in the place; and this At that time, the influence of Dong and Taiweizong permeated every corner of the northern foot of the Qintong Mountains.
Although the biggest difference with Hexi is that Yingshu, the King of Yingshu, could not only allow the Taiweizong family to set up a Taoist school in Qintongshan—and even so, the Dongs and Taiweizong also took the lead.
"The main force of the Xiyuan Army has already moved south, and there is no need to work from Tongbei Dacang for the transportation of grains, but there are a few big eagles that can transport supplies. If Dong Ye and the county chief have any instructions, please tell Chen Hai." Chen Hai thought that Dong Pan and the others would build a Taoist Temple in Shichengling. There was no existing mountain road, and a large amount of materials could only be transported into the mountain from the air little by little through the giant eagle.
"To build the Taoist Academy, I will inevitably have to trouble you," Dong Pan smiled. "But the Taoist Academy is built, who will be the presiding officer, the son has not made up his mind yet. If I recommend someone, I think you will be the Lion City. The Supervisory House of Lingdaoyuan is the most suitable..."
