Chapter 266 Three Mountain Pass

The eagles flew into the sky so high that it was difficult for the human eye to see them. Except for a few places in the Han Dynasty that were of special significance to Liu Cang, Liu Cang basically did not let people see giant eagles like Gu Biao.

Especially when you enter the Central Plains, giant monsters that are beyond people's common sense are flying around above people's heads all day long. No one is going to cause trouble. Let's not talk about it. Once you get used to it, it is easy to lose awe.

The Zhen family settled in a small town and collected the spiritual marrow of the Wuji free-range yak.

The 800-mile stretch of Funiu Mountain is cut off in the north, bounded by Sanshan Pass, and hundreds of miles of dangerous mountains and ridges in the southwest are Liu Cang's private land for freeing animals.

At the northern foot of the Funiu Mountains, close to the middle section of the Funiu Mountains, a towering city wall was erected between the mountains. Tens of thousands of people worked hard for several years to build it. Between the three mountains, the city gates stood across the river, and castles and houses were scattered inside the walls.

The city gate is divided into two parts, with a high-arched tower bridge in the middle and a gate at the bottom, which connects to the Luo River. The tributary of the Yellow River can pass ships. The city gate is like an arc, connecting the steep mountains at both ends.

The city, the school field, the military camp, the animal stables, and the stables were all built in the mountain depressions south of the river, a few miles between Funiu Mountain and Xiong'er Mountain.

To the north of the river is the square, which is blocked by the mountains of Laoshan. Half of the residents and half of the houses are workshops, and it can accommodate thousands of households.

As a defensive pass west of Luoyang, Sanshan Pass has almost no defense against attacks from the east.

Although Liu Hong allocated land to build a pass here, he did not allow the construction of any defensive facilities in the east direction leading to Luoyang.

There are dangerous mountains on two sides, fortifications on one side, and smooth waterways. In the east, only half of the mountain blocks the residential area. It is a majestic city with extremely serious loopholes.

The eagles landed, and a huge green rock tower with a height of 20 meters stood halfway up the mountain. Jin Zi took Liu Cang and fell into the school field near the military mansion. The eagles either landed on the giant tower to rest, or flew to the mountain specially opened for the eagles.

A gathering place in the mountains—Luoying Gorge.

Liu Cang currently raises 9,000 eagles and 2,000 gyrfalcons, and the rest are all species. Liu Cang usually only leads a flock of 3,000 alone. It is expected that this is a flock that he intends to cultivate for a long time.

Luoying Gorge is composed of two mountains. Although the area is large enough to gather tens of millions of eagles, three thousand seems to be the limit. Even if there is gold to suppress it, and the number exceeds three thousand, these mammoths will often fight to the death and chaos, even if they leave the nest.

Future generations will not be spared.

Except for the three thousand large eagles that are close to the wild state, the other eagles are all distributed to the army officers and generals to raise them with them.

The eggs laid by eagles will be taken away together, hatched and then imprisoned in the eagle tower. If these captive eagles are not tamed by military lieutenants, a few will be sold as nomads in exchange for cattle, sheep and horses, and most will be slaughtered and their feathers picked for meat.

.

"Drink~! Drink~!" The shouts of galloping horses in the military camp did not stop when Liu Cang arrived.

The first battalion of the wolf army was organized into two thousand men. They were temporarily equipped with light armor, trained on spears and bows, and equipped with two thousand gyrfalcons. They were specialized in scouting, formed into spear formations, and went out as rangers.

"Pass!" Liu Cang flipped off Jin Zi's body, and a bunch of heavy objects fell from the sky and smashed nearby. The package burst open, and the gold and silver metal inside fell out.

The nearby soldiers looked at the falling objects due to the noise and saw a pile of gold, silver and pearls that may have weighed hundreds of kilograms. The soldiers were not surprised and ignored them.

Liu Cang got this from the Wonu Kingdom. From time to time, his lord would go out to Lida to get some gold and silver. The generals in the camp had long been accustomed to it.

"Alas~, my lord, a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall." Jia Xu sighed helplessly. Jia Xu, who was originally a calm personality, walked very fast, as if he was afraid that Liu Cang would run away, and he led several people with him.

"Haha, thanks to Wen He's hard work, I just happened to find a clear and divine gemstone. Seeing that it matches Wen He very well, I found it especially for Wen He."

As soon as he saw Jia Xu, Liu Cang immediately put on a flattering smile on his face, squatted down and fiddled with a pile of gold and silver, and picked out a clear gem like a teardrop. Well, it was quite strong, not broken or spent.

Dian Wei was training Yulin cavalry in the Shanglin military camp, Pan Feng went to Zhuojun, and Ji Ling was serving as the prefect of Wujun.

Originally, the Flying Bear Battalion, from soldiers to generals, positioned themselves as Liu Cang's private soldiers. If Liu Cang didn't take them out to hang out, they would either practice martial arts, beat tigers and bears, or go to the iron field to forge soldiers and armor, and gather together.

boast.

As for Jia Xu, although he had received the official position of Yushi Zhongcheng, he was the only one among the four who helped Liu Cang handle a lot of trivial matters in Sanshan Pass, including Lubei County and Shanglin Garden.

"Thank you for your concern, my lord." After taking the gem from Liu Cang, Jia Xu's face became more helpless.

The gems were of the highest quality, but he already had a bunch of all kinds of jewelry hidden in his home. Every time Liu Cang coaxed him like this, it made him feel both painful and happy.

"My lord is now surrounded by many things, so I still need to be cautious. Although Fuyao Qianli is carefree, he has neither guards nor armor, so my lord needs to do less of such things."

"Haha, don't worry Wen He. When the king has cultivated and strengthened the Gu, he may be able to wear armor and travel with him, or he may be able to protect his troops with him."

It was useless to say it, but he couldn't stand it, so after accepting the benefits, Jia Xu still took the trouble, while Liu Cang interrupted with a smile, and the two of them ended this regular greeting.

"The army's various expenditures have been calculated, and all households in Lubei County and Shanglinyuan have been informed. Many livestock have been gathered. Your Highness can check them at any time." The guard stepped forward to pick up the gold and silver on the ground, and Jia Xu did not delay.

, led Liu Cang to the Pass Military Mansion, and said to Liu Cang.

"Oh? Wen He is interested. From now on, the number of livestock and poultry can be summarized. There is no need to gather them again. The consumption in the army will be explained in detail." Liu Cang chuckled and asked Jia Xu.

Including the people in Shanglin Garden, Liu Cang also allocated some chickens and poultry for them to raise. Originally, the poultry and livestock were gathered to facilitate the collection of spiritual marrow. Liu Cang's explanation to the outside world was to see if there were any livestock with the potential of spiritual beasts.

However, since the fighting chickens have mutated into fear chickens, and the system has activated the classification from small beasts to ancient species, the spiritual marrow produced by the breeding target has been attracted by unknown forces and has been able to be automatically included in Liu Cang's consciousness space.

Although there seems to be a limit to the scope, Liu Cang no longer needs to touch and collect them one by one within the prefecture and county. The effect is to make Liu Cang happy physically and mentally and save him the trouble of his old nose.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Liu Cang has also opened several livestock breeding sites in Funiu Mountain, but the animals in them are intended to be upgraded to high quality and not easily slaughtered.

"The pass has been completed, the troops have been handed over and dismissed. Feixiong camp is either quarrying or forging iron. Do you want them to stop?" Jia Xu asked first.

"No, I have already told them over there that one hour a day will be used as hard work and they will do what they can. Let them stock up on stones first, which may be used to build the city in Shanglin Garden in the future." Liu Cang shook his head.

"In the future...?" Jia Xu asked. Seeing Liu Cang nodding, Jia Xu's eyes briefly flashed with light, and his expression became normal for a moment, and he asked no more questions.

The Sanshanguan General's Mansion was built in the style of a military fortress, with a mountain as the base and an area of ​​100 acres. During this time, there were frequent visits from the left and right, and Liu Cang did not have the authority to open the mansion. Earlier, the government also assigned him a left official.

However, those left officials were ignored by Jia Xu under Liu Cang's instructions. Ferocious beasts and brutal soldiers often roamed the area. Seeing that Liu Cang did not restrain them, the left officials gradually came less and less.

Liu Cang selected some bright-minded young people from Lubei County. Most of the scholars here are now transferred from Lubei County. They are involved in civil service and military affairs, and they receive official salary, but they are civilians.

These people were all trained by Jia Xu, and each had their own assigned duties. When they saw Liu Cang, they greeted Liu Cang respectfully and came and went in a hurry.

In the main hall of the government office, Liu Cang sat at the head of the pile of documents, and Jia Xu slowly reported on the compiled materials.

The military settlement in Lubei County covers an area of ​​1,000 acres, which can be used as a standing reserve for female soldiers with a salary of 2,000 days. Their food mainly consists of ordinary chickens, pigs, and deer. The training intensity is low, and they major in casualty surgery and first aid.

What Jia Xu is reporting now is mainly his summary of meat consumption based on Liu Cang's observation of the training intensity at Tianlu Camp.

After summarizing these data, it can be regarded as determining the regular training intensity of Tianlu Camp, and Liu Cang does not need to keep an eye on training matters.

Tianlu Camp is an auxiliary army. During the war, various battalions of the army will be mobilized. This battalion is under the command of Zhang Xiuniang and deputy general Bian Ji.

Because Zhang Xiuniang and Liu Cang gave birth to a son, regardless of whether it was because of Liu Cang's abnormalities in some aspects, she became more and more obsessed with studying medicine and saving people.

His son, Zhang Zhi, was adopted into the Zhang family and recognized Hua Tuo as his adoptive father. Today, both Zhang Rang and Hua Tuo treasure the little bastard.

In addition to Tianlu Camp, Liu Cang also has a special group of soldiers who cannot be considered a regular army, the Jinyi Guards.

Well, it is similar in nature to the Jin Yiwei in later generations, but it targets slightly different objects.
