Volume 37 Chapter 14 Golden Crow City

Yanghe County, Golden Crow City...

Standing on the top of a mountain outside the Golden Crow City, looking at the Golden Crow City, Zhang Tie couldn't hide his excitement.

Four years ago, the Golden Crow City was just a concept drawn by Zhang Tie and his elder brother Zhang Yang on the blueprints, but today, the previous concept has become a reality.

Compared with Taixia's first-class big city, Golden Crow City with an area of ​​only about 100 square kilometers can only be regarded as a small city, but the bustle brought by the airships constantly shuttling over Golden Crow City, and the bustling crowds outside Golden Crow City , but people forget that this is a small city, and regard it as a bustling commercial center or a regional air traffic hub.

The railways and roads have been repaired at this time. Standing on a high place, you can see the railway and road traffic network extending in all directions, with the Golden Crow City as the core, radiating away in four directions. The smoky train is like a long snake on the railway. Mercedes-Benz, on the road, all kinds of vehicles come and go.

Because the city was too lively, just over a mile outside the city, there were two tall and majestic secondary castles that Zhang Tie hadn't thought of, guarding the Golden Crow City like two silent guards, playing the role of diverting people. Many airships traveling to and from Golden Crow City directly parked in the airship bases outside the two tall fortresses.

And surrounding the Golden Crow City and the two sub-fortresses, some villages and towns and factories have begun to form on the ground with a radius of tens of kilometers. Everything in front of them is thriving and full of vigor.

Zhang Tie also saw a large barracks outside the city.

Like the Golden Crow City, that sizable barracks is also very lively. Of course, this kind of excitement is the excitement on the battlefield, with steam armored vehicles speeding back and forth. There are also the shouts, collisions, and sweat and dust of countless soldiers.

Under Zhang Tie's eyes of the lotus, even though tens of kilometers were separated, everything in that barracks still clearly appeared in front of Zhang Tie. It's as clear as looking at the palm prints in your own hands.

The flag hanging on this barracks was not the flag of Taixia Youzhou's army, nor the flag of Zhang's family in Huaiyuantang, but a Golden Crow flag.

That Golden Crow flag was exactly the same as the logo of the Golden Crow Merchant Group, only more murderous. On the left and right sides of the Golden Crow, the two claws of the Golden Crow were holding the shield while holding the sword.

This is the symbol of the armed guards of the Golden Crow Merchant Group, in other words. That is the symbol of Zhang Tiejia's private army.

Under the Golden Crow banner, the resolute expressions on the faces of the soldiers who were training did not escape Zhang Tie's eyes.

The dust condensed with sweat, leaving black sweat grooves on the faces of the soldiers on the battlefield. The officers were roaring, and the ballista on the steam armored vehicle was also roaring. The rhythmic vibration brought by the steam weapons In the midst of the bang, the target field on the uphill side of the shooting range was hit with potholes everywhere...

...

Just looking at the size of the barracks and the number of people trained on the battlefield, Zhang Tie roughly estimated the number of armed forces of the Golden Crow Merchant Group—about 100,000 people.

Did not go home for four years. The current Zhang family is no longer the original Zhang family.

...

Feeling a little excited, Zhang Tie looked at the Golden Crow City in the distance for a while, and finally took a deep breath. As soon as his body moved, he left the top of the mountain.

Half an hour later, Zhang Tie appeared under the huge shadow of the city wall of Jinwu City, raised his head, and looked at the unbelievably tall city wall of Jinwu City.

Standing on the top of the mountain in the distance and looking down, I don't think how high the walls of the Golden Crow City are. When he came under the city wall, Zhang Tie felt that the city wall of Golden Crow City was too high.

The entire Youzhou. The city walls of Youzhou City, a first-class city, are only over 70 meters high, while the walls of Golden Crow City. But it was more than 100 meters high, like a tall tower. Standing under the city wall of Jinwu City and looking up, it was only when I raised my head that I could feel the aura of Mount Tai pressing down on the top of Jinwu City.

All kinds of city defense machinery stand on the city wall. Steam ballistas and heavy centrifugal turrets arm the entire Golden Crow City like a steel hedgehog. Outside the city wall, there are pieces of movable steel armor on the city wall. It is no longer the setting of the city wall,

But the configuration of the battle fort.

If Golden Crow City is counted as a city, it is only a small city, but if Golden Crow City is counted as a fortress, it is already a large fortress.

The Golden Crow City was built after his accident. Looking at the Golden Crow City in front of him, Zhang Tie knew what his family and his elder brother felt when they built the Golden Crow City.

If it wasn't for safety considerations, Golden Crow City wouldn't have built such a tall and deterrent city wall. This city wall is actually a portrayal of my brother's heart - in the past few years, maybe my brother has been thinking every day how to make this family strong in Taixia, and no longer let anyone in this family encounter any more misfortunes.

No, I'm back this time, from now on, no one can bully the family members again!

Zhang Tie said to himself secretly.

...

"Wow, the walls of the Golden Crow City are so high, even higher than the first-class cities..." Not far from Zhang Tie, a boy of seventeen or eighteen was also standing under the city wall, raising his head and marveling at the Golden Crow. The majesty of the city walls.

Beside this boy, there is a middle-aged man in his 30s and 40s. Both of them are dressed as businessmen. The boy looks a little immature, but the middle-aged man is shrewd. The faces of the two people are different. Somewhat similar, it is estimated that they are father and son.

Many people who come to Golden Crow City for the first time will stop under the city wall for a while when they enter the city, and look up at the majestic city wall of Golden Crow City. special.

"Do you want to take pictures under the Golden Crow City? Two gold coins for one time. This is the highest city wall in the entire Northeast Governor's Mansion. If you pass by, don't miss this opportunity..." Seeing Zhang Tie and the young man stop here, he immediately Someone with a camera came over to solicit business.

It turns out that this city wall can actually become a scene of the Golden Crow City.

Zhang Tie laughed dumbfounded in his heart.

"Let's go, stay in the advanced city, and we will queue up tonight to pick up the cards. If we are lucky, we should be able to get a box of potions for the whole school after queuing for a few days..." The middle-aged man pulled Pulling the boy, ignoring the words of the photographer, directly pulling the boy into the city.

"Father, is this all-purpose potion really easy to sell in other states?" the boy asked in a low voice, very vigilant.

"It's very popular. I've already contacted the market. It's in Tongzhou. There are twelve full-effect medicines in a box. If you take it and add two gold coins to each one, you can make a steady net profit of 24 gold coins. This is not much money. Although the road is hard, a bit bumpy, and takes a lot of time, if you are lucky, you and my father and son can make two trips a year..." The middle-aged man said in a low voice as he walked.

"In the future, if I have money, let's buy an airship!" said the young man, in his immature voice, there was an ambition that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.

"Yes, it's good to have this kind of ambition. The Hong family in our city also started their business with father and son doing business and small business..." The father patted his son on the shoulder and encouraged him happily.

The two fathers and sons of the merchants whispered, and then squeezed into the crowd entering the city gate. There were also two teams of city guards and officers at the gate of Jinwu City. The faces of all kinds of people in the city and the packages they carry with them, unless they encounter particularly eye-catching ones, generally they will not be specially checked and made things difficult.

Seeing the father and son entering the city, Zhang Tie also walked over, mingling with the bustling crowd and preparing to enter the city.

At this moment, Zhang Tie is of medium build, slightly strong, dressed like a warrior that can be seen everywhere in Taixia. He is neither ostentatious nor mediocre. It should have a trace of ruthlessness and toughness, with an ordinary saber on his waist.

People who were dressed almost in the same way, among the surrounding crowd, Zhang Tie could see seven or eight people.

The guards of the business group, the lone warriors, and some powerful merchants all looked like this.

Compared with when he first arrived in Taixia, Zhang Tie made a careful comparison and found that the number of people carrying weapons in the crowd had quietly increased.

Just as Zhang Tie was about to enter the city, he saw an officer walking down the passage above the city gate in a hurry, and whispered a few words directly to an officer guarding the city gate, and the officer was shocked immediately. He also hurriedly arranged his clothes.

The words of the officer who came down from the tower not only reached the ears of the guarding officer, but also reached Zhang Tie's ears.

That sentence is, "The main city is coming, pay attention..."

Hearing these words, Zhang Tie's footsteps almost stopped at once.

City Lord, isn't that his father?

Just a few seconds later, a convoy of four luxurious black cars drove quickly from the road to the city gate, and stopped outside the city. Several people got off the black cars, The officer at the gate of the city quickly walked over, saluted respectfully, and then consciously followed the people who got off the car, stopped outside the city and started pointing.

Because of the arrival of these people, many people who were entering the city turned their heads to look at those people curiously.

However, the sharp knife-like eyes of the bodyguards standing around those people and the thirteenth-level aura conveyed by them made the curious people only maintain this curious and scrutinizing eyes, and no one could leave. past.

Surrounded by the crowd, Zhang Tie's father, Zhang Ping, came to the place where Zhang Tie was standing just now, raised his head, covered a pergola with his hands, looked at the tall city wall of Jinwu City, "This city wall is indeed too high , looks murderous, making the atmosphere of Golden Crow City a little tense, it seems that it is really necessary to beautify it properly..."...

As Zhang Tie's father said, there was a stenographer accompanying him with a notebook and quickly wrote down his words... (To be continued) R466
