There are no people in the land of Jiangbei for the time being, but the traces of construction left by the Jinyun clan still exist, so Hongzhou continues to set up outposts here, and Yumeng returns to this land after a long absence.
This land changed owners four times, and finally returned to the hands of the Hongzhou people.
However, when Yu Meng was carrying out production activities, he noticed something unusual in the distance. A large number of people appeared at the border of this land. Yu Meng couldn't help but feel a little frightened and angry.
Could it be that the Jinyun clan’s people came back to kill them again?
Jinyun's elite troops who attacked Hongzhou were all defeated, killed or captured, while the large number of remaining middle and rear troops and logistics personnel naturally dispersed and fled...
So now, the territory that the Jinyun clan originally conquered is in chaos. There are tribes in various regions who no longer recognize the dominance of the Jinyun clan and are rebelling. There are also cracks within the Jinyun clan because the powerful leaders of the Jinyun clan have been captured or killed.
After his death, there was no leader with enough prestige in other areas. Everyone wanted to compete for Taotie's inheritance, which led to internal feuds.
At this juncture, the Jinyun clan is going to transfer the conflict, attack Hongzhou for the second time, and bring down the whole family?
However, when Yumeng observed through the telescope, he soon discovered that these people were wearing different clothes from the Jinyun clan, and their number seemed to be only a thousand.
…
Emperor Fangxun did not travel with his own totem flag in a big way. Most of the princes in this era were very low-key, very earthy, and very down-to-earth.
For example, Higashikata Jizi would brag to passers-by, Bochengzi Gao would farm his own land, and Huahui would clock in and show perfect attendance at work.
As for the soldiers who followed, there were only more than a thousand people, which sounds like a lot, but in fact, for example, during roll call in the morning exercises in schools in later generations, there were only two to three thousand people. These thousand people were divided into several batches and all of them were gone at once.
But even this number of people is enough to deter those "robbery enthusiasts" with evil intentions.
Di Fangxun and the others entered the land left by the Jinyun clan, and saw a place similar to a "tribe" appearing in the distance. Di Fangxun planned to take only a few dozen people to ask, so as not to be misunderstood by others, but he never wanted to hear it.
There was an extremely loud whistle.
In ancient times, whistles were important tools used by people to convey messages and drive away animals. They were made of bones or clay.
"They found us...?"
The princes of the Central Plains sent people out. After a long time, these people came back and brought Yu Meng's inquiries.
The messenger said that the people of that tribe had already discovered the Central Plains people like him, and they were already ready to evacuate. When he just passed by, there were soldiers surrounding him from all directions. They carried bows and arrows on their backs and used crossbows to aim at them.
.
Because Yuanzai had made crossbow arrows back then, the Central Plains had already had crossbows.
The princes found it inconceivable that they were so far apart that they should not have been discovered so early even if they were at a high place.
When Ehuang heard Yumeng's name, she was immediately happy and expressed that she would go over to negotiate. Di Fangxun sent people to follow. However, when Ehuang went over, she was questioned by Yumeng.
"You said you are Erhuang? Young man, I don't know where you heard this name, but it's too early for you to lie to me!"
"Erhuang is obviously a strong little man, how could he be such a good-looking girl!"
Yumeng's words were so impactful that Ehuang's brows trembled, and then she remembered that she had never lost her waistcoat in Hongzhou.
Next to him, Ehuang's brother, the real Ah Huang, seemed to understand something.
Ehuang had no choice but to tell some of the internal situation in Hongzhou. Yumeng became more and more frightened as he listened and suddenly interrupted Ehuang!
"Shut up! You actually know so clearly about our situation in Hongzhou, it's hard to keep you here!"
Yumeng raised the crossbow on the spot!
Ehuang: "???!"
Ehuang realized that Yumeng had made a mistake, and that he had probably taken himself as a spy for the enemy, so he quickly came to his senses in a thousandth of a second!
"Wait a minute, I know a secret about Azai!"
"In the sports meeting back then, the real champion was actually..."
————
Di Fangxun heard about what happened before and looked at the talisman in his hand. This was the pass to the south.
Only the Hongzhou people who were very familiar with Yu Zai knew the truth about the archery champion at that time. Yu Meng asked some basic questions about water and soil engineering, and Ehuang answered fluently.
Are you kidding me? Even if I am a poor student, I have reviewed it carefully over the years!
Yumeng confirmed Ehuang's identity, but was a little at a loss. A strong man had become a bitch. Yumeng wanted to ask Ehuang why she could cut off her account?
Yumeng expressed deep regret that Ehuang did not want to be a man.
Emperor E left angrily, and the envoys from the Central Plains obtained a pass and crossed the river, leaving pig trotters in sacrifice in the process.
And Di Fangxun has been bragging to the princes that his daughter has learned a lot of knowledge and technology in the south.
"My daughter is studying water conservancy engineering and is said to be ranked second in the class. If you ask if this major can control water, of course it can!"
"My lord, let me show you, the princes and uncles, a visual inspection of how deep this river is..."
"You said you don't have any tools? Didn't you learn this? It's useless at all..."
Emperor E: "(angry)!"
After crossing the river, people in the Central Plains saw the earth and stone buildings built on the West Beach.
Bonfire platform, military camp, shipyard, lumberyard, warehouse, water tower, pigsty, flood dam, and grain processing plant.
Just the construction situation made Di Fangxun surprised. He thought he had arrived at the residential area of Hongzhou, but when he saw his daughter also looking confused, Di Fangxun understood.
When we came here in the past, there were no such buildings.
"There was no one here before, but then it was flooded..."
Ehuang recalled the scenery of Hongzhou in the past and determined that these lands should be barren.
People here have also discovered Di Fangxun and the others a long time ago.
After everyone left this land, some princes touched their beards and praised:
"It's already very good. Most places in the world are not as prosperous as this mountainous wilderness. I can already imagine what the real land of Hongzhou looks like. People have houses and chickens and dogs live together. It should be similar to the land of Tao, Tang and Luoshui.
."
The princes already have pictures in their minds. If you apply them according to Tao Tang and Luo Shui's life template, it won't be too different.
"I heard there are a lot of delicious food here, and now I just want to eat."
A certain prince made the sound of cooking rice.
Good food is an important basis for evaluating the prosperity of a region...he said so.
They continued walking, following the huge water channel.
The sun began to set towards the west, and was about to fall into Yuyuan. Under this glorious sunset, the light was suddenly partially blocked.
In Di Fangxun's eyes, he saw a heavy and towering "mountain".
Why is there a hill here? Could it be that we are going the wrong way?
No, that's not a mountain.
Di Fangxun's pupils contracted.
Sure enough, Ehuang opened her mouth and introduced this majestic building to her old father.
"This is...the Great Flood Control City!"
Giant canals bound the Yangtze River, earth mounds blocked the incoming water, and unusual materials were used in the huge buildings. The emperor and the princes had no time to observe the tip of the iceberg of this huge building, and it was almost dark.
They came to the Great Flood Control City and showed the talisman. There was someone Ehuang knew inside...
"Emperor?! How do you..."
Shujun is on duty here because he has no village to go back to, the Akafang family is too far away, and his friend Xianlong is busy being a licking dog and has no time to take care of him, so Shujun spends the festival with other warrior friends here in Flood Control City.
.
However, the appearance of the emperor and the princes made Shujun completely confused as to what was going on. He felt a thump in his heart, wondering if the Central Plains had become enemy-occupied territory?
This wave is the sixth fall of the capital and the nine escapes of the emperor...?
Di Fangxun knew what Shujun was thinking and almost beat him to death, saying that his group of pensioners only came to travel at public expense.
But while they were talking, a loud sound suddenly came from the princes. The princes were startled and thought it was a war. However, when they found the source of the sound, they saw a gray-white wooden pillar hanging on it.
A big horn.
The horn is actually talking!
The princes listened to this devil's voice with shocked and horrified expressions:
["Hello everyone, welcome to this episode of the Rice Cooking Program. My name is Zhang Hong. In this episode, we will teach you how to make Daoxiang pickled fish..."]
["To make pickled fish, you must first make sweet rice, wash the glutinous rice, steam it on the stove, wait until the glutinous rice is cooked, add distiller's yeast to ferment..."]
The faces of the princes changed drastically. Some people asked what kind of witchcraft this was. Emperor Fangxun stared at Shujun and asked.
What kind of monster is this that can actually inhabit the horn and speak?
