In the end, they could only attribute it to Xiao Xian being too powerful. After all, even the soldiers who went into battle against the enemy, apart from the hostility between the two countries, also felt that Xiao Xian had a strong personal charm.
Mianzhou City is the largest city between Daizhou and Shenzhou. It was originally owned by the Song Dynasty three hundred years ago, but was later occupied by the Liao people during the war.
In the end, Qin took Song and replaced them. Jin destroyed the Liao people and the world was divided into four parts: Jin in the north, Yue in the south, Chen in the west, and then Qin in the east and in the middle.
The State of Qin borders the other three countries, while North Jin and South Vietnam do not touch each other.
Therefore, the Qin State has always been afraid that the other three countries will conspire to attack Qin. Later, the three countries conspired to occupy the rich Xichen and supported the new puppet government for various reasons.
After all, the three countries compete for interests, so the power of the three countries in Xichen is getting weaker and weaker. In addition, their respective disputes continue, so now Xichen has a tendency to become autonomous again.
The Qin State has always wanted to take Mianzhou back, but there is no chance. Moreover, three hundred years have passed and it was lost during the Song State, Qin's predecessor, so the Jin State does not want to return it even more.
Things have been delayed until now.
This time, Qin originally negotiated with the Jin State and wanted to take Mianzhou back, but among all the areas suitable for farming in the Jin State, Mianzhou accounted for most of it, and it was even more impossible for the Jin State to return it.
The matter was settled.
Originally, Mianzhou was farmed by Han people. After several battles, the people fled and died. Now, with only ten houses and nine empty houses, they still have to suffer the ruthless exploitation of the Jin people, struggling on the line of life and death.
Moreover, Shanzhi, the Khan of the Jin people stationed in Mianzhou, has always prohibited the Han people from farming and required them to graze. Now most of Mianzhou is much more desolate.
Along the way, we could see weeds growing wildly, and cattle and sheep scattered around, grazing on the grass haphazardly.
When she arrived in Mianzhou, Shen Mingzhu saw a dilapidated city. The suspension bridge on the city gate had broken, and half of it was there, and the chains rattled in the wind.
The moat has long since dried up, and is almost filled with mud and covered with weeds.
The paint on the city gate is mottled, and the original color is almost invisible.
The tall and wide city wall was also mottled due to the erosion of the years, and grass even began to grow on it, covered with vines.
A group of Jin soldiers stood at the city gate, each with a vicissitudes of life and fierce eyes. They wore scimitars at their waists and did not use the spears and spears of the Han people.
On the other hand, the soldiers in twos and threes on the city wall were lazing around, laughing loudly, or howling like wolves, looking carefree and proud, and even unfriendly messages could be heard in their words.
If the towers on the city wall were in the hands of the Han people, they would need major repairs every few years, minor repairs every year, and maintenance and repairs on weekdays.
But after it fell into the hands of the Jin people, firstly, they did not like to live in the house, but they did not have the skills and craftsmen to repair the house. The number of people captured from the Han people was too small and they could not bear the torture, so it has not been properly repaired so far.
There are only a few frames left of the city tower now, with thatched roofs erected on them, swaying in the wind. Wherever there is a city tower, it is clearly a broken thatched shed.
Shen Mingzhu lifted the car curtain slightly, looking at everything in front of her, she couldn't help but let out a soft hum.
Biyun was taking care of the tea stove on one side, while Shen Mingfu and Liu Bo were lying on the other side watching, constantly exclaiming, "Oh, why is Mianzhou City so dilapidated!"
