Chapter 790 Xiongnu, Great Wall
That's right...
At this stage, compared to the Huns, the Donghu people are actually more powerful.
And they also harassed the northern border a lot.
However, in many cases it is not as obvious as the Huns.
After all, Da Qin built the Great Wall mostly near Xianyang. As for the Liaodong Army and other counties further to the east, firstly, they already had the Yan Great Wall, but they were relatively remote from Guanzhong. Therefore, the impact on Da Qin
The degree of urgency is not great.
Therefore, the Donghu they faced in the north were not as eye-catching to the Qin Dynasty as the Xiongnu.
Of course, history did not give Donghu this opportunity, because although Donghu was powerful, he did not cause any major attacks or offensives on the Central Plains.
During the Chu-Han War at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Donghu was destroyed by Maodun.
but!
Regarding the power of Donghu, it cannot be underestimated.
Moreover, the Hu people covet the Central Plains a lot, and they are different from the Central Plains. It is naturally difficult to make them obedient.
"yes……"
Feng Zheng laughed and said, "The ambitions of the Donghu people may not be less than those of the Huns..."
"That's exactly what it is..."
"but……"
Feng Zheng then laughed and said, "Although the Donghu people have strong troops and horses now, they are not sure enough to defeat the Xiongnu, so they seem to be waiting and watching... At this time, if we can stand with them and work together,
They may or may not be tempted to deal with the Xiongnu..."
"The Marquis of Chang'an is smart!"
"I have some special preparations..."
Feng Zheng smiled and said, "When the time comes, I guarantee that General Meng's men will appear with a cavalry that will make the Huns unable to do anything! And..."
After saying that, Feng Zheng laughed and continued, "Since we have found ways to involve the Xiongnu on both sides, then naturally we don't need to assemble a large-scale cavalry compactly."
"That's true..."
Meng Tian smiled and said, "If the Xiongnu can't concentrate on me, we can naturally gain a lot of initiative."
"yes……"
Feng Zheng said,
"As for third, the quality of our cavalry and the Huns'..."
Feng Zheng smiled and said, "General Meng, don't worry about this. I already have a plan in mind. By then, I will definitely build a special cavalry for General Meng..."
"Oh? Really? It seems that the Marquis of Chang'an has another special method?"
After hearing this, Meng Tian asked curiously.
"Haha, that's..."
Feng Zheng smiled and said, "I'll leave this matter to Zhou Bo later."
kindness?
Zhou Bo?
After Meng Tian heard this, he understood instantly.
"By the way, General Meng, wait a minute, I want to go to the Great Wall to see it."
Feng Zheng said, "By the way, let's take a look at those workers and the progress of our construction of the Great Wall..."
"good!"
Meng Tian nodded and said, "Shall I accompany the Marquis of Chang'an?"
"No need, it's enough for me to take a few people for a stroll..."
Feng Zheng smiled and said, "General Meng Tian must not be able to stay idle, so I won't waste your time..."
"Haha, this... Thank you so much to the Marquis of Chang'an for being so considerate. I won't be polite. I have already ordered that the Marquis of Chang'an is here. Any expediency is acceptable."
After Meng Tian heard this, he immediately said.
That's right, he is really not a person who can live idle.
He had to participate in everything from training soldiers and horses to supervising the construction of the Great Wall.
After all, he is also a very responsible person.
"good……"
Looking back, Feng Zheng took Yingbu and others, left Mengtian's mansion and ran towards the Great Wall.
"Drive! Drive!"
The few people ran all the way and arrived at the foot of the Great Wall in a short time. After all, Fushi City was not far from the foot of the Great Wall, which was convenient for Meng Tian's military deployment and supervision.
"Master Hou, is that the Great Wall?"
Looking ahead, Yingbu asked.
Ahead is a towering city wall, located on a slightly steep mountain range.
Yes, this is the Great Wall.
Compared with the city walls on the plains, the entire Great Wall, or most of the Great Wall, is located on mountains or relatively dangerous terrain.
The towering city walls can originally block the enemy's progress, but the steep terrain can even block the enemy's progress.
This is the role of the Great Wall. If a Great Wall is placed here, even if it cannot completely block the offensive of the northern nomads, the hindrance it will play is very large.
Because even if your team crosses the Great Wall, the Great Wall will cost you a lot of time.
At this time, when the war broke out and the Central Plains got news about the northern border, they would be able to deal with it more calmly.
"Well, this is the Great Wall."
Feng Zheng smiled and pointed forward and said with a smile, "As the old saying goes, if you don't reach the Great Wall, you are not a hero. Today, we can all be considered heroes..."
"ah?"
After hearing Feng's words, Yingbu and others were stunned.
The ancients said?
Why haven't they heard of it?
Moreover, how long did it take to build the Great Wall?
"dismount."
"promise!"
Yingbu and Fan Kuai immediately dismounted their horses and followed Feng Zheng, moving forward slowly.
"Stop! Don't approach the important site of the Great Wall!"
As soon as a few people approached, they were blocked by several guards guarding the front.
"presumptuous!"
After hearing this, Yingbu immediately shouted, "Do you know who is in front of you?"
"General Meng has an order, no one other than the guards is allowed to approach!"
"Oh, you are responsible enough."
Feng Zheng smiled after hearing this, and then said, "This is the Great Wall, so there should be such rules to prevent traitors from getting close."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and flashed a token, "I am Feng Zheng, Marquis of Chang'an. Your General Meng, can I give you an order?"
What?
Chang'an Hou Feng Zheng?
After hearing Feng Zheng's words, these soldiers were suddenly startled and quickly saluted, "The Marquis of Chang'an is here, the villain is guilty... We have an order from the general. If the Marquis of Chang'an comes, like him, he can make any orders and prohibitions at will."
"It doesn't matter, just keep a good guard..."
"promise!"
After the soldiers heard this, they took a few steps back.
"Let's go up and have a look."
"promise."
With Ying Bu, Fan Kuai and others, Feng Zheng walked forward, climbed the steps step by step, and finally arrived at the Great Wall.
Chapter completed!
