Luoyang City was the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties. Since ancient times, it has been known as "surrounded by mountains and six rivers, a capital city of eight passes, and thoroughfares of ten provinces."
Today's Luoyang City controls Hulao in the east and Tongguan in the west. Luoshui flows through the middle of Luoyang City, dividing the entire Luoyang City into two parts. The north of Luoshui is the imperial city and neighborhood areas where nobles live, and the south of Luoshui is
A neighborhood where civilians and businesses live together.
Fu Mansion is located in the Noble Neighborhood District. After leaving the Noble Neighborhood District, follow the street all the way east, and after exiting the Fangjian District, you will reach Luoyang Shangdongmen.
Fu Mansion is located in Guiyifang. When you go out, turn east and then north. After about a while of tea, you will find a main street that leads directly to the Imperial City and the Upper East Gate.
It is now eight or nine o'clock in the morning. The morning sun is shining all over the earth. People are walking on the streets and vendors are shouting. It seems that Luoyang City is full of vitality, not at all like the war period.
Kang Long's riding skills were average. Although he had ridden a horse in his previous life, he was still far behind compared with people nowadays. He knew that if he wanted to kill enemies on the battlefield in this era of cold weapons, he had to ride a horse.
The technique requires a lot of hard work.
After leaving the Shangdongmen, go eastward along Luoshui River. The terrain is gentle. There is an official road on the outskirts of the city winding eastward, leading directly to Hulao Pass. This Hulao Pass is also called Sishui Pass. The terrain is dangerous and it is the southeast gateway of Luoyang.
The Jin faction was heavily guarded.
After leaving Luoyang City, the number of pedestrians on the road gradually became less and less, and the terrain gradually became steeper. After walking for more than ten miles, I saw a small path on the right side of the official road, leading directly to a small mountain.
Seeing that Kang Long's riding skills were mediocre, Fu Quan and Lu Xing did not dare to run too fast, so they just followed him on both sides. Kang Long turned his horse into the trail and headed straight for the small mountain.
The small earth mountain is not high, only more than a hundred meters high. The mountains are densely planted with trees. It is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the ground is already covered with withered yellow leaves.
When he arrived near Detu Mountain, Kanglong dismounted and walked up the small mountain. Lu Xing seemed to be very familiar with the terrain near the outskirts of Luoyang City. He pointed to the terrain around the small mountain and said to Kanglong: "Master Kang, this place is called
Shallow water slope, you see, the Luoshui River flows directly south of the shallow water slope. The water here is gentle and the water surface is open. I, Da Jin, originally wanted to build a water station here, but later because the terrain here was too gentle, the underwater sediment accumulated.
, it was inconvenient to excavate, so we gave up.”
Kanglong walked to the top of the slope and looked down. He saw that there was a large flat area formed by alluvial sediment under the shallow water slope. In that flat area, withered and yellow weeds spread all over it, and some strange trees grew sparsely. Kanglong
The dragon can't even be named.
To the north of the shallow water slope, there is a small valley with an area of about one mile. It is surrounded by wild forests and is a naturally hidden area.
Kang Long's heart moved, and after careful inspection for a moment, he decided in his heart that he would choose this place as the base for the secret training of the Fu family warrior team.
In this valley, there are dense forests on all sides, and there are not too high earth slopes. As long as you build hidden sentry earth buildings on all sides, you can have a panoramic view of everything happening within a radius of dozens of miles.
Moreover, in this valley, there are many thick trees and overgrown weeds, and there is a quagmire with an area of more than 20 square meters at the bottom of the valley. It can be said that it is an excellent field training base.
As long as you can make good use of this place, you can train a good special forces warrior team in just a few months. This special warrior team is different from the special forces of later generations. It only introduces some special forces training subjects to facilitate their testing and training.
The effect is to prepare for the future large-scale training of elite special forces.
What is even more convenient is that Luoshui is to the south and the official road is to the north, making it easier to train for beach landings and raids on the official road at night.
He checked carefully and found that there were no residents within a radius of more than ten miles. It was better in terms of concealment.
After looking at it for a while, Kang Long said: "Fu Quan, Lu Xing, I plan to choose this place as the training base for our Fu family guard. What do you think?"
Fu Quan glanced at it for a few times, with a look of embarrassment on his face. He looked at Kang Long's face and murmured: "Master Kang, I'm sorry for my blunt words, but I left the great martial arts field in our Fu Mansion unused and came here."
Training, isn’t it a bit too hard?”
Kang Long frowned, then smiled and looked at Lu Xing, who was looking thoughtful. Lu Xing came to Fu Mansion on his own, and he never received much attention in Fu Mansion, but he was quite capable and far-sighted.
But I have always been depressed.
This time Kang Long was able to promote him to be the captain of the Fu Family Guards, and he was very grateful to Kang Long. He thought for a moment and said, "Master Kang, I think it's feasible. I train in the mansion all day long, and the brothers are just here
When it comes to dealing with errands, I'm afraid the longer the training time is, the less effective it will be. Although the terrain here is not dangerous, it is better than being in a wild forest, which will further test one's ability to survive in the wild."
When Fu Quan heard what Lu Xing said, he felt a little worried, but he didn't show it in front of Kang Long. Kang Long nodded imperceptibly and said, "Okay, let's go back."
The three of them walked back to the official road and rode horses straight back to Luoyang City. When they were approaching the upper east gate of Luoyang, Kang Long slowed down his horse and said calmly to the two of them: "Fu Quan, you go back to the mansion first and supervise the training of the guards.
.Lu Xing, take me to our Fu family's blacksmith shop, I will make a batch of weapons."
Fu Quan was overjoyed and responded, riding into the city and heading straight to Fu Mansion. Lu Xing followed Kang Long with a solemn expression. The two slowed down their horses, controlled the horse's direction, and let it move forward.
Kang Long suddenly turned his head and whispered to Lu Xing: "Lu Xing, do you want to do something big in this troubled world?"
Lu Xing's face was happy at first, but he calmed down after a while and sighed: "Master Kang, those of us who are guards are responsible for protecting the safety of our master's family. How can we have any chance to do something big?"
Kang Long smiled mysteriously and continued in a low voice: "I can see that you are very talented, and you are not willing to be a small guard all your life. However, for some reasons, if there is no other opportunity in this life, you are destined to be
Guard for life."
Lu Xing was suddenly told the central point by Kang Long, and his face was startled. He was a little angry for a moment, and after a long silence, Lu Xing sighed and said with some waning spirits: "Master Kang is really smart. To be honest with Master Kang, his subordinates are not from the Central Plains.
It is a nomadic tribe in the great northern wilderness. More than ten years ago, my subordinates fled south with my father. My father admired the prosperity of Luoyang and settled down. Later, he joined the Fu family, hoping that with my ability as the Lu family, I could win over the master's family.
He was appreciated by his master for his meritorious service on the battlefield. Unexpectedly, he became a member of his master's bodyguard. Over the years, his subordinates have been cautious and did not make any mistakes, but they have never been appreciated by their master. Before his death, my father told his subordinates that I am afraid Fu Fu
I am worried that I, the Lu family, are a nomadic people in the wilderness. No matter how brave I am, I will never be reused."
Kang Long nodded, thinking that's it. From this point of view, Lu Xing is worthy of his trust. Kang Long smiled and said: "Brother Lu, don't be discouraged. One day, you will get what you want. Now take me
Let’s go to Fu’s Blacksmith Shop.”
Lu Xing was stunned, not understanding the meaning of Kang Long's words, and wondered: "Why does Master Kang value his subordinate so much? His subordinate is just a little warrior, how can he be called this by Master Kang?"
Kang Long laughed and said: "Brother Lu, is he really a nomadic clan in the wilderness? Why is he so ungrateful?"
Lu Xing was stunned again, and laughed loudly, cupping his hands and saying: "Brother Kang values Lu so much. If Lu is too pretentious, he will look down on him. However, Brother Kang thinks highly of Lu so much. Whenever he is asked to do anything in the future,
Lu will definitely repay Brother Kang’s kindness with all his heart!”
Kang Long laughed and scolded, and said: "Okay, if you don't say this, you will naturally know how hard I worked today. Let's go to the blacksmith shop now."
The Fu family's blacksmith shop is located in the civilian commercial area south of Luoshui. The two of them walked west along the main street of the Imperial City to a wide cross street, then turned south and walked for two-quarters of an hour to the overpass beside Luoshui.
, after crossing the overpass, you will find Nancheng District, where civilian merchants live together.
This is different from Beicheng District. Because Beicheng District is an imperial city and aristocratic area, the shops are gorgeous, the streets are neat and magnificent, and the atmosphere is grand. However, in Nancheng District, there is a mixture of fish and dragons, and the buildings of the houses are lower and dilapidated than those in Beicheng. Naturally, they cannot compare with the luxury of Beicheng.
.
However, it has a local flavor that is not found in Beicheng District, and it is also more lively than Beicheng. Most of the vendors set up stalls along the street, and some open shops on the street, but most of them are properties owned by the nobles in Beicheng.
Nancheng is known as the Nine Streets and Ten Alleys. The main streets are four in length and five in width, with nine blocks. There are also ten small alleys between the streets, where merchants and civilians live together.
The Fu's Shop is on the main street of the third block. From a distance, you can see an imposing two-story civil engineering building. A large vermilion "Fu's Iron Shop" plaque hangs across the top of the first floor.
