Chapter 1,715 The Five Cities of Anxi (sixth update, four more)
Seven days passed by in a flash, and the five cities in Anxi were finally completed during this period. Luo Zhang originally planned to visit them again.
After all, if there was anything wrong with the cities, he would have to point it out. After all, these five cities were important barriers for the Tang Dynasty facing the west. It was not an exaggeration to say they were bridgeheads.
According to Luo Zhang's original idea, he was to build a second Great Wall to block the road leading to Anxi from the west.
However, such a Great Wall was too time-consuming, so we settled for the next best thing and chose to build five giant cities to defend ourselves against powerful enemies.
You know, these are not just five giant cities. Under these giant cities, tunnels have been built to connect the five giant cities. Once a city cannot hold on, it can be quickly transferred to avoid being annihilated.
, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army.
At the same time, the establishment of these five giant cities also allowed the original land of Western Turks to be better controlled by the Tang Dynasty.
No, the place has become very prosperous due to the establishment of the giant city. There is an endless stream of merchants and merchants coming and going.
Now that it is built, there are more merchants. After all, it is much more convenient to travel to the Eighteen Kingdoms of the Western Regions from here. It is no longer like before, there is no place to rest here, and the baggage is much more.
Now it's better. Merchants don't need to bring a lot of supplies. They can resupply in these five cities before setting off. This is much more convenient. They only need to bring more than ten days' supplies to reach Kucha.
According to the news from Su Dingfang, everything in the five cities is in good condition, and he is now arranging the erection of artillery.
The artillery has been built a long time ago and only needs to be set up before it can be put into use. This is a weapon for city defense. If there is an invasion from outside, these artillery can exert great power.
Those soldiers who are below the level of innate are helpless in the face of artillery. Only those who are above the level of innate strength are not afraid of artillery.
However, how can there be so much innate talent? Attacking a city still requires a large number of soldiers!
After all, you have innately powerful people, and so do the places where you are stationed.
After the city was built, Li Shimin had already sent a large number of innate experts to the five cities of Anxi to take charge of the city in order to prevent any accidents from happening.
If an enemy comes to attack, Li Shimin will mobilize more strong men to go there, so there is no need to worry that the city will be invaded by those strong men.
Of course, if a strong person from the Return to Void Realm comes, Li Shimin can't do anything about it. The strength of those he enshrines is only innate, and there is no Return to Void Realm.
From this, we can also see the gap between the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food Kingdom, as well as the alliance of various countries.
Luo Zhang also asked Lao Tzu before, and I also said that it is not that there are no Return to Void Realm in the Tang Dynasty, but that these people are all hiding, and it is not easy to find them.
Of course, it would be easy for me to find him, but it is not certain whether those people will come out. After all, these people are Xianyun Yehe. If you want them to work for the Tang Dynasty, what can you give them?
For them, it is better to work for the Tang Dynasty than to hide themselves, understand their own way, and improve their strength. Taking care of mundane things is a complete waste of time.
In their view, there was absolutely no difference between who controlled the Tang Dynasty and who became the emperor.
They have also experienced the Sui, Wei and Jin Dynasties, and they don't care much about the change of dynasties.
To them, the change of dynasty is just a passing thing. It is a normal thing. As long as it does not disturb them, it has nothing to do with them.
Of course, if I really ask them to come out, these people will not fail to come out. After all, I am in the Guiyi realm. As long as I say that I can help them improve their realm, how can these people miss such an opportunity.
After all, for those who are strong in the Return to Void Realm, who wouldn’t want to advance to the Return to One Realm?
If you can advance to the realm of unity, your lifespan can be extended by hundreds of years again.
I don’t dare to think about immortality, it is elusive, but it is still possible to think about living for a thousand years. After all, with the living example of Lao Tzu, they will believe it!
It all depends on me. If there ever comes a time when Li Shimin comes to seek help from me, I will definitely help Li Shimin.
