Chapter 17 Kimack Road
Kimak Road.
The so-called Kimak Road is a path that the Kimaks, who were originally located in the grasslands in northern Kazakhstan, stepped through over the Sazedge Mountain (Ural Mountain).
Except for a few places where the mountains are steep, most of the places are actually less than 1,000 meters, while the location of Kymak Road is only two or three hundred meters.
On the east side of the road is Yekaterinburg, a famous Russian in later generations, and on the west side is Perm.
Perm was an important base for later Cossacks to go out of Siberia. Tsarist Russia once set up the Governor's Office, which governed the entire Siberia.
Of course, at this time, both Yekaterinburg and Perm were still in a dense forest, a scattered dense forest composed of birch forests, red pine and fir.
Humans are always natural enemies of wild beasts. With the influx of Viagiki people, tigers were rarely seen west of Mount Sazedge from this time. They almost all reached east of the mountains. Later generations, with the development of Cossacks, tigers continued to migrate eastward until the sea.
However, in the dense forest at this time, brown bears, black bears, wolves, various badgers, foxes, and various deer herds, and various wild boars were still huge.
The Kimak Alliance was defeated by the Thunder Ye Army before it evolved to the Khanate stage. The alliance originally had seven divisions, three blue Turks, and four divisions actually came from the Black Turkic tribes near the Daxianbei Mountains, including the Tielli tribe who followed and migrated from the Nenjiang River Basin.
When the Thunder Ye Army attacked the Tielli Department in large numbers, the chief of the department, Huriji, who had been familiar with Sun Xiurong, surrendered. When the subsequent Kimak Prefecture was set up, the department was not included in the jurisdiction of the state, but was placed on the Kurgan prairie east of the Sazedge Mountains.
With the strength of the Sabrei Army, they could only manage the grasslands in the northern border of Kazakhstan in later generations. The Siberian grasslands to the north were somewhat weak. Some Kimak herders who yearned for "freedom" and some herders who could not bear the jurisdiction of the Gas nobles entered there one after another. Because the Tielli Ministry was relatively complete, they gradually surrendered to the ministry.
A large iron-capable department is forming.
The Tielli tribe is actually a combination of Sumo and the Khitans.
After obtaining the land east of Mount Saridege, Huriji suddenly felt like he was in water. The climate, terrain (swept everywhere), and the forests were very similar to the previous Nenjiang River basin.
The Tieli tribe was a tribe that could shed horses, fish and hunt, and raise pigs. So, in the Chelyabinsk area in later generations, Huriji set up a large tent.
Hu Riji knew that he could have today, which was inseparable from the support of Suoye Jun, so he also reciprocated and sent his sons to Alishi's school to study.
As a semi-herding and half-hunting tribe, the fifteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony has never been interrupted in the Tielli Ministry, and his sons are no exception. The most outstanding one is his youngest son, Bayan, who is twenty years old this year.
The tribe has never been completely tied to a piece of land. Since Tieli taken root, the department's exploration of the surrounding areas has never been interrupted. There is another episode here - since Sun Xiurong learned that Huriji changed the place in Chelyabinsk to "Tieli", he suddenly felt a bad thing in his heart. When he sent someone to give gifts to Huriji, he deliberately called "Tieli" "Tieli".
Coincidentally, Tielli is in the middle of several large lakes and surrounded by several small hills. Seeing this, Huriji simply changed this place to "Tieling".
So, my Datioling appeared at the westernmost end of Siberia.
After the Tieli tribe set up a tent in Tieling, it rarely crossed the south (Tieli tribe, Haibei Prefecture of the Great Qin Kingdom, roughly the boundary of the Uyi River in the future, which is the dividing line between Russia and Kazakhstan), and mainly explored westward and northward. Soon, the low Sazhideg Mountain was explored by them and stepped on the Kimak Road. The Bulgarians in Shanxi could not tell whether they were Turkic or Mahjong people, or whether they were called them by Kimak people.
At this time, in a large dense forest on the west side of the road, neither the Bulgarians nor the Viajikis rarely appeared there, so the Tielli people continued to explore westward until they found traces of the Bulgarians and the Viajikis.
Just as Bai Jieyou led the caravan to the north, a small army was also crossing Kimak Road.
I saw that there were about a hundred people in this army, all of whom were in a strong teenager. One of them was about eighteen or nineteen years old, tall and tall, fair-faced, and prominent facial contours. He wore a wide-brimmed iron helmet commonly seen by Saiyejun. In winter, under the iron helmet, he naturally had a sheepskin hat, and the white wool of the sheepskin hat was tightly attached to his face.
He was covered with a thin cotton armor from Ye Jun. He also had a sheepskin vest on the outside, two knives on his waist, one with two hands, one with a riding knife, and a strong bow on his back.
He was holding a horse and carrying two packages, one of which was obviously a simple tent, clothing, food and other supplies, while the other package was full of skin and contained a powerful crossbow.
There was also a young man beside him, but he was big and thick, with a very strong body and expression. However, this man was extremely respectful in front of the young man. His weapons were similar to those of the young man, but the weight of the long sword, the riding sword and the bow was obviously much heavier than that of the young man.
The other side of the boy was followed by a boy. The man's figure was extremely strong, but his expression was much softer, and his outfit was almost the same as those of these two people.
This young man is Bayan, the youngest son of Huriki, the chief of the Tielli Ministry!
The powerful young man was the chief lieutenant of Sun Xiurong, the current Great Qin Kingdom. Gao Juren, who was called the number one brave general of the Shattered Ye Army by Sun Xiurong!
So, the identity of the young man was about to emerge.
Yes, he is Sun Xiurong's eldest son, and Sun Zhaoshi, who was named Prince of Xianyang.
Sun Xiurong hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind to let all his sons go out to experience. Anyway, since he settled down, he had enough time to have children with his concubines in his "harem". Now, in addition to three older sons and the same three older daughters, he has given birth to a lot in the past two years.
His total number of children is nearly twenty!
Of course, for the sake of stability, only two of his three older sons went out to practice at the same time, and one of them was always left by his side.
Now is the time when the eldest son is training.
In the absence of a great war, the so-called experience either goes to the county to serve as an official, or as a spy in Renyongdu, a guard of the caravan, or becomes a small officer in the Thunder Ye Army.
But as Sun Xiurong's eldest son, his expectations for him were different.
Since he was traveling through Kimak Road, he would either contact the Bulgarians or the Viajikis to Shanxi.
In Sun Xiurong's mind, the Viajiki people are more important than the Bulgarians. Since the eldest son of Wang appeared, it is obviously to look for the Viajiki people.
This small army is somewhat similar to the Iron Battalion Camp of Shi Chaoqing in Youzhou. They are all from various tribes, military camps, and Renyong Capital. At least one is one is ten. Gao Juren is even more rare. In the dense forest, whether it is encountering beasts or the extremely primitive weapons, it is impossible to defeat this team.
Just in case, this small unit also has several military doctors and engineers from the Thunder Ye Army.
When Bayan was in Cannon, he learned Viajiqi from Malovis. Therefore, in addition to being familiar with the path, he was also the only translator after meeting the Viajiqi.
Bayan also worked as a personal bodyguard beside Sun Xiurong, and was able to protect the prince with Gao Juren, who was called the No. 1 brave general of the Broken Ye Army by the King of Qin. Bayan was very excited. He knew that from this moment on, his life was closely tied to Sun Zhaoxi.
And Gao Juren is the same. After coming to the Shattered Ye Jun, he actually felt like he was reborn. After two years of training with Sun Xiurong, he had gradually developed from a simple brave general to a more comprehensive general.
According to his ideas, it was naturally aspiring to send him to a certain Snowy Camp as the chief lieutenant, but it was not bad to let him do things with His Royal Highness. He knew the importance of this identity. Before Ma Lin, Bai Xiaode and other generals retired, he would never be able to climb ahead of them no matter how hard he tried.
So, following His Royal Highness became the best choice.
In January, the snow is two feet thick and the temperature is stable at about minus fifteen degrees Celsius. The so-called Kimak Road is nothing more than a path that people step on. If you are not careful, you will fall into a deep ditch on the side. Although it is not fatal enough, you need to deal with it carefully.
The Sailye Army has a mature method to deal with such snow tracks. In the team, several elite engineers from the Sailye Army were driving several horses to walk in front of them. These horses were the high-quality horses cultivated by the Sailye Army at the Bosishan Horse Farm. Like the Kazan horses, they are not tall, but their strength and endurance are extremely outstanding, and they are extremely cold-resistant. They are the best pioneers who walk in the snow.
Taoist Jimak is about three hundred miles away. As a tribe of semi-herding and half-hunting, the Kimaks are not just about to finish the road. Bayan knows very well where camping is suitable, where there is water source, and where there is a lot of hay to feed horses.
It is very similar to the Sorens in later generations. Tribes born in forests will leave marks in places suitable for camping, and some even leave wooden houses on big trees, which contain easy-to-preserve firewood, dry food and other items for convenience for later people.
So, along the mark left by Tieli people, although the snow was deep, the road was rugged, and the weather was severe, the team could still walk on the road at a speed of thirty miles a day. On the way, the invasive murderous aura emitted by this team made all beasts retreat.
Ten days later, they finally arrived at the western foot of Mount Sazedge.
After a brief rest, Sun Zhao sent search personnel around him.
Three days later, all search personnel from each group came back.
"Your Highness, there is no one in the south for fifty miles."
"Your Highness, there is no one in the north for fifty miles."
"Your Highness, there is no one in the west for fifty miles."
Sun Zhaoxiu had a compass with a horoscope in his hand. As his biological son, Sun Xiurong naturally gave him everything he knew without reservation, such as how to distinguish directions in the wild, how to measure time, how to grasp distance, and even the concept of longitude and longitude were handed over to him.
Of course, as the squad of the escort, there are naturally some of them among them. Almost all people from Renyongdu have learned this set of things. At this time, officials of the Sitianjian in the Tang Dynasty were able to use the missing tiling and sunshade length to calculate the tangent function from zero to ninety degrees, and list the values.
In Tianshan University, which was founded by Sun Xiurong, a very few people with extremely high understanding have learned advanced mathematics like calculus, and have long used interpolation to make the tangent and cotangent functions of all degrees into a table that can be queried.
Cen Shen's son Cen Zuogong is such a talent. He uses astronomy, miscarved, sundials, and compass more accurately than Sun Zhaoxiu.
Cen Zuogong is only fifteen years old now, a handsome young man. He is the only person in the team who is not from a warrior. However, in Sun Zhaoxi's eyes, his value is not much worse than Gao Juren.
