Chapter 22 The Holy Land of China

The sky is haze, snowflakes are flying, and the snow on the ground is several inches deep.

Zhou Yang's Marquis' Mansion, Li Guang, Cheng Buzhi, Gongsun He, Gongsun Jian, Qin Wuhui, a helmet and armor, a Han sword hanging on his waist, carrying a hard bow, and was full of energy. He stood behind Zhou Yang, as if he was about to go to the battlefield again.

Zhou Yang was wearing military uniform, and his handsomeness increased his majesty. He stood in the snow and looked at the gate.

They were waiting for Emperor Jing's will. Although they were going to see the real secret of Jianzhang Army, Zhou Yang and the others didn't know where to go. Regarding this matter, Emperor Jing's answer was that someone would take them there, so Zhou Yang and the others had to wait.

Although he was waiting, he had no complaints. This was one of the highest secrets of the Han Dynasty, and even the ministers in the court knew not many. Among the court officials at that time, only Zhou Yafu knew a little. Emperor Jing asked them to see this time, and that was to open all the secrets to them. This was a great trust and supreme glory. Li Guang and the others were happy and had no time to complain.

A sound of hooves sounded and I stopped in front of the mansion.

The sound of the hooves is very majestic. The one who comes must be the elite who exists like Jianzhang Army. It should be that Emperor Jing sent someone to come.

Zhou Yang was thinking this way, but Liu Tie led a big man in. The big man was tall, like an iron tower, with a helmet and armor, majestic. When he walked, he made a sound and was extremely powerful.

"Okay!" Li Guang and the others applauded in unison.

Zhou Yang kept nodding and looked at this person. In addition to his sharpness, this person was more smart. It seems that Jianzhangjun’s real secret is extraordinary.

"Ding Jun has seen the Grand Marshal!" The visitor stepped forward and saluted Zhou Yang.

"Ding Jun! Good man!" Zhou Yang raised his thumb and admired him.

"Mr. Xie praised him!" Zhou Yang is now the most famous general. What a glory it would be to be praised by him. Ding Jun's face was red, and he looked at Li Guang, but Cheng didn't know how he treated him.

Although it was my first time meeting, I had a good impression of Ding Jun, and Li Guang and the others gave me gifts one by one.

"The General of the Last One came to escort the Grand General and the Generals." After seeing the ceremony, Ding Jun spoke directly and said nothing extra: "From now on, the General of the General, and the Generals shall not bring any escorts. Your safety shall be borne by the General of the Last One."

As famous generals, Zhou Yang and Li Guang and others have their own guards and take them wherever they go. This is a surprise. However, Zhou Yang and others were not angry, but were excited. This is to keep it a secret. Jianzhangjun’s real secret can not be leaked for decades, and it is precisely because of strict precautions.

"Then there will be General Lauding." Zhou Yang was very happy.

Ding Jun breathed a sigh of relief in secret. He was most worried that Zhou Yang and the others would insist on taking the guards. In that case, even though he had the will, he would have to spend some time: "Thank you, Generals, please do it! Generals, please!"

"Please!" Zhou Yang asked, and turned over to chase Feng Qiao. Li Guang and the others flew onto the horse and followed Ding Jun out of the mansion.

As soon as he left the mansion, Zhou Yang's eyes lit up. He saw dozens of cavalry in front of the mansion, each wearing Han military uniforms, with helmets and armor, Han swords hanging on his waist, and a big yellow bow on his back. He was lined up in an orderly manner. Although the number of people was not large, his aura was like thousands of troops, people were like dragons, horses like tigers, and their aura was like rainbows.

"Tsk tsk!" Li Guang, who was quick-mouthed, was amazed, raised his thick eyebrows, and asked, "What army is this? It's so majestic!"

These dozens of cavalry are definitely not inferior to Jianzhang Army, but Zhou Yang does not know any of them. There are thousands of Jianzhang Army, and Zhou Yang dare not say that each of them can remember their names, at least, they can make a familiar face. However, these dozens of cavalry are strangers and have never seen them before.

"This is also Jianzhangjun." Ding Jun smiled: "If I could not tell you what you know in the past, today is different, so it doesn't matter if you know it."

"Haha!" Li Guang smiled happily, urging him: "Where are you going? Let's go quickly! I still want to see Jianzhangjun's secrets sooner."

"Please forgive me, General Fei, I can't tell you the location, but you will know when you get there." Ding Junfei flew on his horse, waved his hand, and dozens of horses surrounded Zhou Yang and the others in the middle, guarded him, and rushed out of Chang'an.

As soon as I left Chang'an, I rushed to the west. When it was almost dark, I came to a mountain and saw that the mountain was extremely high and steep, with thousands of peaks and valleys, and extraordinary.

Covered with snow, the snow scenery is vast, which is amazing.

"Is this Chen Cang?" Zhou Yang was very familiar with Guanzhong's map, and he confirmed it with one plus and immediately came to a conclusion.

"The Grand Marshal has good eyesight, this is Chen Cang." Ding Jun nodded with a smile and said, "Huaiyin built a plank road openly, crossed Chen Cang secretly, and settled the Three Qins. It is this mountain!"

After Han Xin appointed Liu Bang as a general in Hanzhong, his first plan was to build a plank road openly and cross Chen Cang secretly, which became a strange plan that has been passed down through the ages. Before Han Xin was appointed as a general, he was unknown, and all the generals had never heard of him. Even Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, it was because Xiao He was sure that this person had the talent of a national scholar, so he became a general.

After becoming a general, Han Xin made ten plans in a row. Liu Bang was very happy and regretted that he met too late. He regretted that he almost let Han Xin escape. If Xiao He had not chased him back under the moon, he would have lost a lot.

Liu Bang was convinced, but the generals were dissatisfied with Han Xin. Until this plan was successful, all the generals were convinced, and even Zhou Bo and Cao Shen could only obey the orders.

This is the first time Han Xin has demonstrated his outstanding military talent. It is a myth of the Han army. Although Han Xin exterminated the clan, his story is still circulated among the Han army.

"This mountain is full of beautiful scenery and has many anecdotes." Ding Jun is also a talkative person. He pointed to the mountain and talked about anecdotes: "More than 500 years ago, in the era of Duke Wen of Qin, a hunter in the mountain hunted a monster that was like a sheep and a pig, thinking it was auspicious and wanted to offer it to Duke Wen. However, when he met two children on the road, he advised the hunter not to see Duke Wen, saying that this was a turtle and a ferocious beast, and he would eat his mother when he was born. When he grew up, he sucked the human brain, not auspiciousness. When the hunter heard this, he would beat the beast to death. The hunter suddenly spoke, saying that the two boys were divine chickens, named Chen Bao, got the king of the man and the domineering of the woman. The hunter immediately released the turtle and went to chase the two boys. The two boys turned into divine chickens and flew away."

Zhou Yang didn't care about this kind of legendary story. When he listened to the story, Li Guang and the others were very excited and energetic, and asked, "What happened later?"

"Later?" Ding Jun shook his head and continued to tell a story: "The female rooster was hidden in this mountain. During the reign of Duke Mu of Qin, he was obtained by Duke Mu of Qin. Duke Mu of Qin built Boye. Duke Mu built the temple of Mrs. Bao and worshiped it in all seasons. As for the rooster, his whereabouts are still unknown."

Legend has it that the rooster flew to Nanyang and was obtained by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. This led to Liu Xiu's revival of the Han Dynasty and created a great situation of "Revival of Guangwu".

When the Tang Dynasty arrived, he heard that the genius rooster crowed his hooves. Emperor Suzong of Tang thought this was a good sign, so he changed Chen Cang to "Baoji", which is the origin of Baoji.

While speaking, he was walking on the mountain road. He soon entered the mountain. The mountain road was winding and rugged and difficult to walk. In addition, the weather was cold and the war horses were walking on it, and it was a bit unbearable. Zhou Yang and the others had to get off the horse and lead the horse.

"Isn't it in the mountains?" Li Guang asked quickly and asked first.

This question is exactly what Cheng Bushi, Gongsun He, Gongsun Jian and others are asking, and they all look at Ding Jun.

"The flying general is right, he is going to enter the mountain." Ding Jun nodded slightly and said, "There was originally a great road, but it was a bit far away, so he took a shortcut."

"Oh!" Everyone suddenly realized.

"How far is it?" Zhou Yang asked.

"Master-in-law, don't be anxious, it's coming soon." Ding Jun pointed to the bottom of the mountain: "It's that, in the valley."

"In the valley?"

Zhou Yang and the others were on the top of the mountain. He didn't mention it, but he didn't notice that there was a valley at the foot of the mountain. Looking down at the foot of the mountain, he saw that the valley at the foot of the mountain was not big, and a small river flowed by. At this time, the river had frozen, like a jade belt, pure and clean, and very beautiful.

"What's the secret of this river valley so small?" Li Guang couldn't help it.

This question was exactly what everyone thought, and he nodded in agreement.

"hehe!"

Ding Jun smiled while holding his beard and said, "The Flying General doesn't know that there is a different world in this valley. Although it's small outside and big inside, even a hundred thousand people will not be discovered by others. Look, you only need to guard this place, here, and a few passages, and no one can get close to it."

He could not lie about such a thing. Zhou Yang looked around and said nothing wrong. This is definitely a natural place for hiding soldiers. There are only a few mountain roads. Once they are controlled, who knows that there are a large army hidden in it?

No wonder, no one knows the true secret of Jianzhangjun for so many years, and it has a lot to do with the terrain.

"That's the reason!" Zhou Yang, Li Guang and the others kept nodding in agreement.

Qin Wuhui's eyes were shiny, looking around, and he was still very excited, and his body was trembling.

"General Qin, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Yang asked with sharp eyes.

"Master, the last general is fine, it's okay." Qin Wuhui hurriedly replied.

It was obvious that there was something wrong, but he didn't want to say it, and Zhou Yang didn't want to ask, so he followed Ding Jun to the valley.

I soon arrived in the valley and saw a lot of hoof marks and rut marks in the valley. Wherever I was, the river valley was very narrow. I rode my horse in it for a while and gradually became wider.

There are many foundation sites in the river valley. It seems that people lived here many years ago, and there were quite a few people. Zhou Yangda was surprised. Who would come to live in such a place?

Qin Wuhui's body trembled slightly, his chest was undulating rapidly, and he was very excited.

Zhou Yang was surprised and happened to ask him, but saw Li Guang's eyes rays burst into tears, searching around, with a look of surprise on his face: "General Fei, what's wrong?"

"Is this the place?" Li Guang did not answer Zhou Yang's question, stroked his forehead and pondered.

"Where is the place?" Cheng Buzhi felt a little angry.

"Don't ask for it first, I'm not sure." Li Guang was in the mood to pay attention to Cheng Buzhi's complaint: "I'll go ahead and see if the monument is still there?"

"It's still here!" Ding Jun's loud voice sounded.

"Is the legend true?" Li Guang suddenly opened his eyes wide open, and he slapped his horse's back and rushed out.

Zhou Yangda was strange to see his anxious and excited appearance. He had known Li Guang for so long, and had rolled across the Knife Mountain and waded across the Blood River together, but he had never seen Li Guang so excited. Could it be that this valley has a great origin?

Zhou Yang slapped his horse's back, and Feng Baojiao spread his four hooves and chased after him. Zhou Yang asked, "General Fei, where is this?"

"Master, please look at these places first, which will be of great use to our training." Li Guang always answered Zhou Yang's questions, but now he has changed his temperament. Not only did he not answer, he reminded Zhou Yang instead.

Zhou Yang really wanted to pry his mouth open, but he didn't want to say it, so he had to ask. Looking around, he saw that the valley was getting wider and wider, and there were more and more foundations on the ground. These foundations were built very strongly. Although I don't know when it was built, I can be sure that the Ming Dynasty is not short, but it is intact.

After careful examination, the river valley is very large, enough to accommodate 100,000 people. If you train troops here, there will be a sound of mountains inside, and no one outside the mountain will know that this is indeed a good place to train troops.

What’s even more rare is that the foundation is intact, and you just need to build a barracks, which can save a lot of trouble.

"Here! Here!" As Zhou Yang was thinking, Li Guang's surprise voice sounded: "That monument is really still there!"

Zhou Yang looked forward and saw a high platform in front of him, and a stone tablet stood on it.

After Li Guang finished speaking, he slapped his horse's back and rushed over as if he was flying. He came to the platform, flew off the horse, rushed to the platform, looked at the stone tablet with a solemn expression, and stopped talking.

Zhou Yang came to the platform, turned over and dismounted, and quickly stepped up. Cheng Buzhi and others rushed up one by one, and Qin Wuhui was so excited that he held the hilt tightly.

The stone tablet is four or five feet high and has severe erosion. I don’t know when it was erected. There are words written on the stone tablet. Although time has passed, wind and rain have severe erosion and vague writing, Zhou Yang still sees it clearly and is written in Zhuwen.

The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, like a blue dragon, giving people a huge pressure.

Zhou Yang continued to read word by word, but when he finished reading it, he was stunned. The stone tablet was written with the Qin army's war song: "Old Qin, regain my rivers and mountains! The blood will not flow, and I will not stop fighting!"

Qin Wuhui was so excited that he burst into tears. He couldn't help but kneel in front of the stone tablet and started crying.

Zhou Yang, Cheng Buzhi, Gongsun He, Gongsun Jian didn't understand why he cried, but Li Guang and Ding Jun understood the truth and sighed and felt regretful.

"General Qin, as a descendant of the soldiers of the previous dynasty, you are so excited that you are in the place where the previous dynasty trains. This is normal." Li Guang patted Qin Wuhui's shoulder: "The previous dynasty has been destroyed, and it is only a strong wind, which makes people sigh! Don't be too sad, you are indispensable for training troops, and you can't be without fighting the Huns!"

"Yes!" Qin Wuhui pointed his head tightly, still burst into tears with excitement.

"Where did the previous dynasty train?" Zhou Yang and Cheng Buzhi and they were surprised in unison.

"There are many places to train troops in the previous dynasty, so what's so special here?" Cheng Bushi couldn't figure it out.

Ding Jun explained his doubts: "If there was no place, how could the army of the previous dynasty come? If there was no place, how could Yique beheaded 300,000? If there was no place, how could Changping War come? If there was no place, how could the First Emperor wipe out the six kingdoms and unify China? If there was no place, how could Baiyue submit? If there was no place, how could Meng Tian defeat the Huns in Hetao?"
