Chapter 663. Development of Chinese Cultural Tourism Projects
Chang'an City was really dead and turned into a ghost city. The next morning, a few smoke from cooking fires rose from afar. Judging from the number, there were nearly a thousand people and ten thousand households.
However, this number is so pitiful compared to the 200,000 households and hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an's heyday! It's so pitiful that even if the Liaodong grassland is particularly lacking in population, Wang Hou didn't want to abandon the matter and order the soldiers to enter the shanty town to be demolished and plunder people.
Moreover, starting from the early morning of the next day, various participating troops rushed to Chang'an City one after another. The latest one was Wang Hou's father-in-law Cao Cao's direct descendants. After correcting the reasons, Wang Hou dismantled the bases of the three Wang crossbows and drove away. Cao Cao treated these three weapons as his heart's content. He was really worried that the logistics troops were pushing a ton or two guys to run, and personally directed the tiger and leopard cavalry to pull them to Chang'an City.
There is also one advantage in the destruction of Chang'an, that is, the former Han Dynasty royal palace was not majestic, so you can visit it casually, and it is the greatest advantage compared to later generations! No one dares to take care of Wang Hou's tickets!
Wang Hou visited the Daming Palace Ruins Park in later generations. I remember that it was the off-season for tourism, and the tickets for 120 yuan were still available. The ones bought by a group were a little cheaper. However, for example, the Daming Palace is really not affordable. The entire ruins park is really a ruin park. All the main halls and palaces have been destroyed, leaving only the rammed earth wall foundations cleaned by archaeological excavations. It is impossible to even imagine the grandeur of the Daming Palace at that time.
What made Wang Hou even more memorable was that the designer of the naturalized park had not graduated. After walking north of the Imperial Garden, he actually encountered a dead end. Moreover, a circle of barbed wire fences isolated the last part of the harem of the Daming Palace. He had spent money to enter, but he could not complete the entire ruins park. It was really...
Compared with the Daming Palace, there are so many Weiyang Palace in front of me. Without spending money, there are still many things to see. Although the palace walls several meters high on both sides of the palace have collapsed, and the peeling tiles fell everywhere on the ground. And as shown in the TV series, the rammed earth towers and towers that are nearly ten meters high are poured down one after another without maintenance. Some areas even have black traces left by the Green Forest Army and the Red Eyebrow Army entering Chang'an to set fire to the city, but the main buildings of the palace are all there.
The towering main hall of Weiyang Palace is nearly eight or nine meters high. Although the palace above collapsed more than half, even the main hall with the collapsed roof is even taller and more magnificent than the Forbidden City where Wang Houhou went in later generations. Looking back, the scattered palace groups were also particularly grand. Looking at this scene and pinching their chin, Wang Houqing couldn't help but have a bold idea.
Should we encircle all the Weiyang Palace and develop them into tourism projects and attract the gentry to visit? One of them will collect 120 trump cards. I believe that it will not take long to get a considerable income!
Just as the first black-hearted land-enclosed travel company in the late Han Dynasty was about to be born in the center of Chang'an City, a quick horse suddenly rushed in from the palace. He ignored the majesty of the Liu Han royal family and ran, his forehead full of sweat, and Deng Ai shouted anxiously again.
"Master..., Lord..., Lord..., Lord..., Prime Minister is here! Beat the drum..., and call the generals..."
Wang Hou felt uncomfortable when he stuttered in the harem. He threw away his thoughts of visiting the beautiful land in the golden house of Emperor Wu of Han. He brought the gold medal bodyguard Wang Congge, the bodyguard and secretary Zhuge Ying, who was eager to jump down the steps of the palace.
"Stop shouting, go now!"
…………
Now Chang'an City has more military troops than civilians. Xiahou Yuan's army, Xu Huang's army, Cao Chun and Cao Zhen's army plus another large army of more than 100,000. Some troops were stationed directly outside the city. Some ignored the collapse and bad news. They surrounded a house in the shanty towns in Guo. They were as brave as Wang Hou and his confidants were scattered in the palace. They even planned to develop Weiyang Palace into a scenic spot, but there was no one, so when Wang Hou rushed back, he became the oldest one.
Fortunately, General Cao was happy today. In the battle of Weinan, he almost destroyed the large clouds that had been under Cao Cao's heart. The northwest was the 100,000 army of the Guanxi warlords, and the formation was cut by Li Kan. After the defeat, he beheaded tens of thousands of people and captured more than 40,000. Only Han Sui's cavalry escaped from the battlefield in an established manner, and most of the infantry were also left on the battlefield by him.
There is also Ma Chao and Ma Mengqi, who bravely run into Xiliang. The Xiliang Iron Cavalry, known as the Liangzhou horse. This time, the legs of the famous cavalry from the northeast were also knocked off by the leg of the famous cavalry from the northeast. With few enemies and more than three thousand cavalry attacks, Ma Chao broke at least more than three thousand cavalry. In addition, the losses outside Tongguan, only 5,000 iron cavalry corps carefully built by Ma Teng were left, and the morale of the army was also greatly hit. It is estimated that Ma Chao's dream of fighting for the Central Plains should be broken now.
"The army did not fear the arrows and moved forward bravely. Yesterday, they defeated the Mahan thief on the banks of the Wei River! They were very hardworking and making great contributions to the court! They were very comforted! I believe that your Majesty would also be very comforted!"
"However, the thieves are so rampant that they are broken in Guanzhong. The emperor cannot reward the soldiers here. Today, they can only ask the soldiers to drink a drink first, and wait for the army to return to the court and return to the side of Yecheng, and then reward them!"
Although Cao Cao was treacherous and cruel, he would definitely reward him for his soldiers except for a pig who gave him cabbage. This led to Cao's army having the current strong combat power. He heard that he promised to return to the court to reward him again, and the generals and officials did not raise any objections, and they all responded with loud fists.
"Thank you Prime Minister!"
Among all, only Wang Hou's old face collapsed. Sure enough, in ancient times, merchants were all slaughtered by these feudal lords vampires as pigs. Even if he, a military merchant, was no exception, invited the army to drink? Cao Cao's army was in a hurry, so where could he prepare for wine? Only Wang Tuqiu was constantly stocking up in Tongguan in order to appease the Xianbei under his command. The expenses for this banquet would not allow him, his son-in-law, to bleed!
Sure enough! In the afternoon, a large jar of wine with the seal of the king was continuously transported from the east. The defeat was not only a disaster for people, but also a disaster for large livestock such as war horses, cows, and mules. The Xiliang army horses that died in battle yesterday were directly peeled and washed, and were carried onto the grill. Groups of cows and mules transported by Ma Chao and Han Sui were also slaughtered collectively by the Weishui River and chopped into large pieces to put them in the pot. Seeing the captured Guanxi soldiers trembled.
Many of these were animals they used to cultivate the fields, but now they have become food for Cao's army to improve their lives, and they couldn't help but feel blood in their hearts.
Unfortunately, the winners are taking all the policies these days, and as the loser, they have no say at all.
Well, Wang Hou, the only exception, was bleeding after winning the battle. He roasted a piece of beef leg meat on the fire, which was crispy and crispy, and bit it hard with a crack, as if it was biting Mr. Cao's old face, and then chewed it hard with a ferocious face. Listening to the creaking sound, even Zhuge Ying next to him looked helpless.
However, at this moment, the newly promoted staff officer Deng Ai actually came again. He still had the problem of stuttering when he was nervous, and he reported it every time he was angry.
"Lord! Prime Minister is welcome!"
"No! I'm not full yet!"
