In terms of combat power, the Gu Yu Dynasty may not be able to dominate the world, but as far as the capital of the Gu Yu Dynasty - Jian'an City is concerned, it is the most powerful city in the world. This is the consensus of the people in the world, even if it is the capital of other dynasties.
No one can deny this fact.
Time flies, wars have never stopped, thousands of miles of bloodshed, millions of corpses are buried, the dynasty has changed for unknown generations, and some immortal inheritances have been lost in the long river of history and become a thing of the past. But only Jian'an City still stands in the western land.
Above, it has never collapsed. It is a majestic name made of iron and blood.
Su Yan stood blankly outside the gate of Jian'an City, raising his head and staring at this world-shaking majestic city. His eyes were a little dull, and his expression seemed to be that of a country bumpkin who had just come out of the countryside and saw the prosperous city for the first time.
Su Yan rolled his throat with difficulty, and murmured in a hoarse voice: "Dear me, I'm so fucking big!"
It's no wonder that Su Yan subconsciously uttered two dirty words, because Jian'an City is indeed big, and very big.
The city wall of Jian'an City is nine feet high and endlessly wide. You can't see the end at a glance. If you come from outside, you will be in shadow for hundreds of miles outside the city, because the majestic city wall completely blocks the sun's rays.
Outside, it can be said that it blocks out the sky and the sun.
The city walls are khaki in color and are made of special metal mixed into clay, calcined and cast. They glow with a cold light, giving people an indestructible feeling.
There is a moat thirty meters outside the city gate, which is fifteen feet wide. Both sides of the river are made of granite, and there is also a short city wall nearly ten feet high.
Su Yan looked at the majestic Jian'an City and sighed in admiration: "It is worthy of being called the most majestic city in the world. It is really impregnable. In this city, even only 50,000 soldiers are enough to withstand a million troops."
The inspection in and out of Jian'an City was not strict. After checking Su Yan's passing diploma, he was let in.
Jian'an City has eight main streets and countless other small streets, criss-crossing, dividing Jian'an City into more than 200 miles of lanes. Su Yan entered Jian'an City from the east gate, and the east side is where merchants gather, "
"Jian'an Nine Markets" is among them, and it is extremely prosperous. There are rows of shops along the way, and there are all kinds of strange items in front of you, which is dizzying. When you walk to the downtown area, there is a lot of traffic, and it can be said that you are walking shoulder to shoulder.
"The prosperity of ancient times is really amazing!" Su Yan sighed.
Before leaving Youzhou, Su Yan asked Su Yan to go to the Military Academy to find him after arriving in the imperial capital. Su Yan remembered this and had no time to wander around, appreciate the scenery of Jian'an City, and ask for directions.
, then went to the Military Academy.
The Guyu Dynasty had five departments, which were in charge of world affairs. Their functions and powers were very similar to the six departments in Su Yan's previous life. Their status was second only to the Prime Minister's Palace and it was also the highest-level administrative unit.
Su Shi is worthy of being a rare political genius. He has shown his talent in politics since he was a child. Not only did he get the position of head of the family in his middle age, but he also gradually rose to the position of regular attendant of the Military Academy. The Chang of the Fifth Academy
The status of the Attendant is second only to the dean, and he is the deputy to the dean. The Military Academy was originally in charge of all major military affairs of the dynasty and held a high position of power. However, the current dean of the Military Academy is old and no longer cares about political affairs.
It was only a matter of time before the position of director of the Military Academy fell into Su Shi's hands.
The palace complex of the Ancient Yu Dynasty is located in the north of Jian'an City, and many official offices are also here. Therefore, the atmosphere here is relatively solemn, not as prosperous as other places, and has a depressing flavor.
Su Yan was walking alone on the road, glancing around and looking at the scenery casually. However, this area was very deserted and there were few pedestrians. Although the trees on both sides of the street were lush and green, he could not give this place any
How much energy it brings.
After walking back and forth several times and walking for nearly an hour, Su Yan found the location of the Military Academy. The building of the Military Academy was not luxurious, but it exuded a majestic and majestic atmosphere. The walls were all made of white marble, and the solemn atmosphere hit his face.
Come.
Standing at the front door of the Military Academy were four guards with steel swords slung around their waists. Su Yan stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Please tell Chang Shi Su that Su Yan wants to see you."
When the guard saw that Su Yan, a young boy, wanted to meet the current head of the military academy, he sneered a little and was about to scold him, but seemed to suddenly think of something and asked, "Are you from the Su family?"
"Yes! Please let me know if you are affected." Su Yan responded.
"Okay, I'm sorry, brother, please wait here for a moment." Seeing that Su Yan was a regular servant of the family, the guard did not dare to neglect him any more and went in to report.
After a while, the guard came back and said to Su Yan: "Master Chang Shi asked me to take you in. You come with me."
Su Yan thanked him and followed the guards in.
The Military Academy is not like other places. Although it is very large, there are no pavilions or flowing water. There are just countless pavilions scattered everywhere. Officials wearing various official robes are constantly running around in a hurry.
"That's it, go in." The guard took Su Yan to an attic, and after saying that, he stood aside in front of the door.
Su Yan walked to the door, straightened his clothes a little, and then gently knocked on the door.
"Come in." The voice came back from inside, and Su Yan slowly opened the door and walked in. Then he saw Su Yan sitting at the desk reviewing documents. He bowed and said solemnly: "Su Yan meets Chang Shi.
grown ups."
"Haha, Su Yan, come and sit down, no need to be polite." When Su Yan saw it was Su Yan, he put down the ink pen in his hand and laughed harmoniously. "When did you arrive?"
"I just arrived today. After entering the city, I came to see the Grand Duke." Su Yan sat down aside.
Su Yan stood up, took out a letter from the edge of the table, handed it to Su Yan, and said: "Jiang Palace is a top university in the world, so the entrance examination is also very strict. Although you are recommended by me, you are also recommended by me.
It has to go through a certain process. This is a letter I wrote to the steward of the general palace. After you leave later, go directly to the general palace to meet this person, and then teach him the letter, and he will arrange the rest."
Su Yan stood up and took the letter, then carefully put it away, and then responded: "I understand, kid."
Su Yan stroked his gray beard, took a deep look at Su Yan, and said: "The general's requirements for students' talents can be said to be extremely strict. Even for those who are recommended by the clan, if their grades are poor by then,
If you get into a complete mess, you will be expelled from the palace, so you have to be careful, and of course don't worry too much. I know your talent, and the possibility of this kind of thing is very small."
Su Yan frowned slightly, nodded slightly, and wrote them down one by one. He didn't know much about the general palace, so he would not ignore anything related to it.
"By the way, I have prepared a house for you in the city. Although it is not big, it is enough for you. If you don't want to live in the general's palace, you can live here. You can also go there to rest in your free time.
." Su Yan told Su Yan the address of the house, and after explaining it, Su Yan asked Su Yan to leave.
