Chong Bogun's team traveled not far and arrived at this temporary camp to rest. The camp had already prepared food, tents, and even boiled hot water from the mountain spring. When they set off again the next day after bathing and changing clothes, everyone was in front of them.
One light.
Master Chong Bogun had already put on Chinese angel costumes and invited Fan Chong and Taiyi to ride in the Xuanyuan Cloud Chariot pulled by two flaming red dragons. Behind the chariot were a guard of brightly armored soldiers holding a guard of honor, and behind the guard there were another three hundred people.
Wearing leather armor and full of energy, tribal warriors were followed by a convoy of hundreds of bullock carts.
Xuanyuan Yunchao could have flown into the clouds, but this was an envoy team, so the Yunchaan was still walking on the road that Fan Chong had just built. Two dragons pulled the chariot and floated slowly against the ground. Fan Chong led the
The civilians and military formations turned around and cleared the way ahead. They had built various posthouses and temporary camps along the way for the emperor's delegation to rest every day, and finally welcomed Lord Chongbo Gun into Bayuan.
…
When Fan Chong met Chong Bogun in the depths of the wilderness, the second national envoy sent by Ba Jun, Master Xiling, also arrived at Dingfeng City. Why is there a second national envoy? This is the highest level.
Etiquette, pay attention to the "three greetings".
First, an envoy was sent to build a road for 300 miles to welcome him. The intersection of the roads is also the future border line of Ba. Then he sent a second envoy to wait at the current border line and escort Chong Bogun to Batu City. When he arrived at Batu City,
In addition, the monarch must personally lead his ministers out of the city to welcome him.
Lu Zhang did not enjoy this treatment at the beginning, because Lu Zhang rushed in in a hurry on the orders of Danzhu, and the young minister was unprepared in advance. Such high standards were not only because Chong Bo Gun was a member of the Chinese
Angel, and because Chong Bo Gun himself is noble enough, he is likely to become the next Chinese emperor after Emperor Yao.
Chong Bo Gun's identity is so sensitive that many people hope he can successfully complete his mission, but many people don't even want to see him return alive, so Ba Jun dare not make any omissions in his escort work to welcome Chong Bo Gun.
It doesn’t matter how strong the guard force is, but there can’t be any problems in the arrangement of the ceremony. The young minister will receive the angel according to the highest standards of Chinese etiquette. Who among the ministers of Pakistan knows the Chinese etiquette best, of course, the former Hou
Gang, now Hou Gang has left, and the remaining one is Xiling who once co-presided the affairs of the academy with Hou Gang for many years.
Xiling arrived at Dingfeng City first with an honor guard, many cars of daily utensils and supplies, a large number of servants, and even many craftsmen. Officials from all the cities along the border gathered in Dingfeng City.
Welcome to Xiling, and Xiling only intends to stay temporarily in the city walls. After a few days of rest, the personnel will regain their best spirits, and then they will set off for the border camp.
All the city lords dissuaded: "The border camp is built for road construction, and the conditions are very simple. It is better to set the reception place in Dingfeng City, and all the etiquette can be better arranged. Lord Xiling can also rest for a while.
Time, let me wait for a good reception."
Although Xiling and Fan Chong were both envoys, their situations were subtly different. When Fan Chong came, the city lords of each city treated him with great respect. They did not dare to disobey orders in official matters, but they also did not dare to get close to him in private.
.Because Fan Chong is the abdicated king of the motherland, if he gets too close to him in private situations other than official business, it may lead to criticism.
On the other hand, the people of various tribes feel very close to Fan Chong, also because Fan Chong was once their king and had a reputation as a wise king. On the one hand, Fan Chong did a good job when he was the king, and on the other hand, it was also because he had
Fan Kang, a brainless tyrant, served as a foil, which made him very popular among the people in Fan Shi's hometown.
The situation in Xiling is exactly the opposite. The people of the original Fanshi Kingdom were not familiar with him, but officials from various cities wanted to meet and make friends in private. Of course, Xiling's title was not as good as that of Fan Chong, but he was a real
An important minister who holds great power and is deeply respected and favored by the monarch. He also represents the power of Lord Peng Keng in the court.
It is a rare opportunity for Xiling to come to the border city in this area. How could the officials of each city miss it? In the eyes of many people, entertaining Mr. Xiling well is even more important than welcoming the Chinese Angel.
Xiling felt really tired in his heart, but he still said with a cheerful face: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but if you really want to be on good terms with me, you should help me fulfill my mission respectfully. According to Chinese etiquette, the greeting angels should be at the national border."
The Lord of Dingfeng City added: "The northeastern part of the country is wild and there is no border defense. Dingfeng City is the border city. It is not against etiquette to welcome people in the city. We all know that Lord Xiling is respectful of state affairs, and we also want to
Everything can be arranged better and everything can be done more conveniently within the city walls, so there is nothing wrong with it."
Xiling's face finally darkened: "If there is no border defense, then we will wait at the edge of the former jurisdiction. Your Excellency, Lord Xian, has already set up a camp. If the conditions are simple, then try our best to make it not simple! I have brought so many
Equipment and materials, accompanying servants, and even a large number of craftsmen, what do you think they are here for?
Not only I, the envoy, but also the heads of the tribes are waiting at the camp, and the city lord of Dingfeng City must also be present. When I came, I notified the city lords of all the places along the way that they must lead their crowds to greet them at the junction of their jurisdictions. You can wait in Ding when you have time.
If Fengcheng entertains me, why not quickly organize people to follow me to build the Angel Camp."
…
Fan Chong escorted Chong Bo Gun out of the wilderness and found that the previous camp had been greatly changed. A number of tall and sturdy buildings had been repaired, and the decorations and equipment were extremely gorgeous. Master Xiling had already welcomed the Chinese angel here and gave Chong Bo Gun
Members of the mission are equipped with servants dedicated to daily life.
Xiling not only escorted the Chinese Angels back to Batu City, but also brought the latest order from the young minister, appointing Fan Chong as the city lord and building a new city outline here. This city was built to welcome the Chinese Angels and thanked Master Chong Bogun
It opened the road from China to Bayuan, so it was named Yingtian City.
The spring plowing season is coming soon. After the roads are built, the laborers drawn from various tribes can be released back. However, due to the order to build the new city wall, the two thousand strong laborers and nearly 10,000 civilians are still left in the camp.
.Including the various city garrison formations mobilized by Fan Chong, they were also stationed on the spot to accept his command.
The task of these people is not only to build the city walls, but also to maintain the roads and set up post towns along the way. The roads are not built once and for all. They need to be maintained every year. Border guards and garrisons must be set up on the latest national borders.
Outposts. On the three hundred miles of road on the Pakistani side, post towns were set up along the roadside every thirty miles.
All these tasks must be presided over by Fan Chong, and I am afraid it will take several years to complete. However, the civilian husbands recruited cannot not go home for several years, so Fan Chong issued two more orders for them to choose.
The first is rotation. Since one from three was drawn before, each tribe will divide the main labor force into three batches and send them here in rotation, and the Ba Kingdom will provide compensation in money and food. The second is to move the family and settle in Yingtian City in the future.
The household registration process has now begun.
Hu Bai, the patriarch of the Qingye clan, was not a fool. At this moment, he had already realized what the suggestion Fan Chong had given him meant. But the opportunity had been missed, and he couldn't help but regret it in his intestines. If he had known this, he would have
They brought all the Qingye clan members here, even if they were old, weak, women and children who couldn't build roads, they could still do many other things in the camp.
Fan Chong's identity is a ten-lord title, but he also serves as the city lord. He even gave up the position of king back then, and it is impossible to stay in the position of city lord for a long time. He will leave after Yingtian City is officially completed and all matters are arranged.
.So who will be the next city lord? It should be the leader of the largest tribe among the local residents, and Fan Chong needs to be recommended.
Only then did Hubai Clan Leader realize what he had missed. Lord Fan Chong wanted to let the tribe that contributed the most get the greatest benefits. Unfortunately, he didn't see through it in advance. He was filled with regrets and depression, and he couldn't afford to get sick ever since.
Not to mention that the Hubai patriarch fell ill, the Chinese Angel Chong Bo Gun also secretly praised Ba Jun Shaowu in his heart. Emperor Yao only sent him as an envoy to Ba Yuan to confer three monarchs, but did not ask him how to reach Ba Yuan.
Chong Bogun built a road in the wilderness and walked into Ba Yuan step by step. It was his own decision and he did not need to inform anyone.
After the Ba Kingdom got the news, they were able to organize manpower and material resources in such a short period of time. They quickly built another road from the direction of Ba Yuan to join him. They built nearly three hundred miles in each direction, and the Ba Kingdom
It only took three months, which surprised him very much.
Either Ba Jun is very visionary and far-sighted, or he has an expert behind him, or both. Because Lord Peng Keng, who has recently become famous in the land of China, has sent Taiyi to meet him in advance.
During the negotiation route, Master Peng Keng must have been the master who reminded and enlightened Ba Jun.
When Chong Bogun saw Xiling, he also saw the camp built for road construction, and heard the emperor's order from Ba Jun to build the city of Yingtian on the spot. In order to welcome the arrival of the Chinese angel, a city wall was built on the spot and
Naming it Yingtian City is already the highest level of etiquette. It has given Chong Bo Gun and Emperor Yao enough face, and will also receive praise from various Chinese ministries.
What Shaowu wants is not only to earn face, but also to win the favor of Chong Bo Gun and the Emperor Yao. This city outline is of even greater strategic significance to the country of Ba. Even if it is not built now, it will be built sooner or later in the future.
Shaowu saw this in advance and took advantage of the opportunity to solve all future problems.
Everyone's vision is different, and the things they see and think about are different. If you can build that road in three months, you should be able to build this sky-facing city wall in three years. This not only reflects the monarch's
My foresight reflects the national strength of Pakistan.
It is not enough for the monarch to have only vision. The country must have corresponding strength to accomplish things. Moreover, national strength is not enough. It must also have official organizational capabilities, capable officials with talents, and an efficient implementation system of government orders. These are important in Chongqing.
Bo Gun had already seen them all when he first arrived in Ba.
Chong Bogun thought to himself that even if he changed places with Shaowu, it would be difficult for him to do better than Ba Jun.
Not only did Chong Bogun appreciate it, but Fan Chong was also secretly filled with emotion. If it were the Fan Shi Kingdom when Fan Chong was in power, and something like this happened today, of course Fan Chong would also want to arrange it like this, but it is impossible to do it. This is
The country of Ba under the rule of Shaowu. (To be continued.)
