Everyone always has some reasons for doing things, no matter whether the reason is correct or not. Anyone who usually acts without any reason is either a madman or a fool.
Yang Wanwan is a bit like a madman, but at least he's not a fool.
If Yang Wanwan had known in advance that the powerful coalition forces of the Ti and Di people in the Daba Mountains were being harvested by the Han like Zhuang He, maybe he would be afraid and see the reality clearly.
However, it is a pity that before the hole cards are revealed, the gamblers at the gambling table feel that they have the greatest advantage.
There are many mountains in the internal area of Sichuan and Shu, and these mountains have isolated the development pace of the Han people, allowing the Di people to have a relatively comfortable environment.
The comfortable environment slows down the pace of development.
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Di and Han people were almost the same. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Di people and the Ba people could still serve as Liu Bang's vanguard and participate in the founding of the country. But now, the technology tree of the Di people is already very high.
Falling behind, falling behind to the point where they don’t even understand where they are lacking, or where they need to make up for themselves to catch up.
Among the leaders of these Di people, there may be some far-sighted people who have discovered the differences between their tribe and the Han people outside. However, they are limited by their knowledge. Although they feel something is wrong, they do not know what to do. When Yang Wanwan
When others clamored to seize the wealth of the Han people, these people knew that doing so was of little significance. However, a few of them could not stop the greed of others.
Among the mountains, deep in the jungle, there is a clear river, and there are colorful colors in the river. The miraculous creation of nature has formed a special terrain in this area, which is somewhat like Jiuzhaigou in later generations. The clear river water
It flows through different sections, and because of the rocks and trees, wild flowers and grass, it forms a picture full of color and so wonderful that it seems to be amazing.
Saying it is a picture scroll, in fact, it cannot accurately describe the scenery here. Because the picture scroll always has some white space, if it is filled with the whole picture, it will make people feel a little full and not very comfortable, especially
Many colors are presented at the same time in ordinary paintings on a flat surface. Even if the painter is brilliant, it is difficult to present a clear and stretched sense of layering like nature. Even if the eyes are full of colors, there is no trace of them at all.
Feeling messy.
If the grassland of Daba Mountain is the holy land of the Ba people, then this place is the holy land of the Di people. Just like in the northern desert, there are always royal courts of the Hu people, in the mountains of Sichuan and Sichuan, there are also palaces belonging to the Di people.
A piece of land that he recognized. According to legend, the ancestors of the Di people found their way into this colorful river, and then they multiplied and multiplied along the river and traveled to all directions.
While Yang Wanwan and the Di people were "showing off their strategies," seducing and ambushing them, the group had quietly arrived at this place, this holy land belonging to the Di people.
There is naturally a Di people's village near the Di people's holy land, but this village tends to follow the mysterious route, that is, it worships the Di people's gods, a strange-shaped stone with various colors...
Um.
Stone.
Like most tribes that worship stones, they believe that life is short and rocks are eternal. This is on the one hand, and on the other hand, the Di people's belief in gods is not unified. Sometimes the village thinks "fish" is good, and sometimes it is not.
Is it that the "yak" is real, or is it that I made up some kind of god? It's very confusing, so in this holy land of Di people, I simply used this strange-shaped stone as the representative of the god.
After all, when you look at this area from different angles, it shows different appearances, which is enough to meet the different needs of each village.
In the village that worships this one representative of the gods, in the relatively large square in front of the village, sitting by the bonfire are the leaders and shamans representing several nearby villages, and these Di people leaders and shamans
The person he is staring at is Fei Yi, who came over the mountains from Sichuan and Sichuan.
Fei Yi lost his father when he was young, and lived with his clan father Fei Boren. Boren's aunt was the mother of Liu Zhang, the former Yizhou shepherd. For a period of time after Liu Zhang came to power, he felt that "no one was available" around him, so he wanted to
To recruit all kinds of talents, he sent envoys to welcome Fei Boren, and Fei Boren took Fei Yi to study in Shu.
Later, Liu Zhang fell, and Fei Yi was implicated. He was idle for a long time. It was not until Xu Shu observed him for a long time that he finally determined that Fei Yi was of good character, so he was promoted and appointed again.
Fei Yi was wearing a leather robe, a rough Gebu, straw sandals on his feet, and his hair was disheveled. Although he had been simply cleaned, there was still some dust and dirt left. If he didn't speak, it would be difficult for anyone to tell what was in front of him.
Fei Yi is a Han Chinese or a Di with fairer skin.
Originally, Xu Shu wanted Dong Yun to come, but Dong Yun was unwilling to come here. The reason was that Dong Yun did not want to wear Di people's clothes and did not want to have his hair disheveled. He thought it was against China's regulations.
That's why Fei Yi had this opportunity.
Fei Yi has already fallen to the lowest level, so he doesn't care about this...
Next to Fei Yi, there was a black-faced man who was also dressed as a Di. His body was also made of leather and coarse cloth. He was a Thunder Copper tribesman who was responsible for dealing with the Di people in the mountains all year round.
The person who escorted Fei Yi and Lei's intermediary was Hu Du, who was outside the hall at the moment.
Lei Tong's repeated jumps often make people laugh or cry. It is impossible to give a guy like Lei Tong much power, but he can still play a certain role in certain things.
With the Thunder Copper tribesman who was familiar with the internal situation of the Di people as a guide, Fei Yi "quickly" contacted the "high-level officials" of the Di people...
Of course, this is very fast, but it still takes a lot of time, mainly spent on traveling over mountains and ridges.
The soles of Fei Yi's feet were still a little sore, and the blood blisters and scratches were not healed. However, he did not focus on this at all. Instead, he paid attention to observing the expressions of the various Di leader and witches around him. Staying behind the "Di"
It is already a very important attitude for these guys to be willing to sit down and meet him in the "Holy Land of Mankind".
Obviously, the leaders of the Di people in the Di people's Holy Land and the shamans who represented the "mysterious power" of the Di people did not approve of the actions of Yang Wanwan and others.
Fei Yi learned that in fact, according to the previous customs of the Di people, the so-called "King of Di Ren" had to go to this holy place and hold a ceremony similar to a coronation, and then he could truly be called the "King of Di Ren".
But I don’t know since when, maybe it’s the previous generation, maybe it’s the generation before that, the title “King of Di Ren” has lost the support of the mysterious side, and I don’t care about the coronation of this mysterious side. Anyway, as long as there are enough manpower, say
If you are king, then you are king...
This made the old-school Di tribes living in the Di Holy Land very dissatisfied, especially the Di wizards who represented the mysterious power.
No one likes to lose their authority, even if this authority seems inconspicuous, just like in some properties, even the gatekeepers will use it as an arrow to make things difficult for the owner or tenant when they seize the opportunity.
Fei Yi has had some contact with several Di people's shamans. As expected by Fei Yi, in fact, there have been very big differences among the Di tribes, and their attitudes towards attacking Han are not consistent. As early as Yang Wanwan
Before raising their troops, the Di people felt that the Han people were very powerful in fighting, unlike what Yang Wanwan and others encouraged. Therefore, many leaders of the Di people felt that there was no need to continue the war. They took their tribes with them
He left the battlefield and returned to the mountains and forests. While watching carefully, he also began to worry about the possible revenge of the Han army at any time.
And subsequent developments also confirmed some problems. After the Han cavalry arrived at Xiabian, they almost easily eliminated the assembled troops of the Di people, and punished all the Di people who had invaded the Han territory and participated in the killing of Han people.
The Di tribe who died or were injured in the war may still follow Yang Wanwan. After all, there are double standards everywhere. The idea that only Di tribes are allowed to kill Han people, and Han people cannot kill Di tribes also exists in the minds of some fools, but compared to
Regarding the Di tribes that were in contact with the Han people on the front line, those tribes that were relatively close to the Di tribe's holy land and had relatively little conflict, there were many Di tribes who felt that there was no need to follow Yang Wanwan's path to the dark side.
"My lord also knows that you have no choice, so he has said that only the culprits will be punished, regardless of the accomplices! If you stop the rebellion immediately, you can avoid death!" Although Fei Yi was wearing Di people's clothes, he spoke in Chinese, and he also
Very rude.
Fei Yi's momentum is very strong.
It was as if he was not in the holy land of the Di people, nor was he surrounded by the Di people, but in the lobby of the Han family, making the final announcement to these Di people.
At the same time, because Yang Wanwan did not obtain the position of "King of Di Ren" through a "normal" ceremony, but a title he added on his own after unifying many small tribes, this kind of behavior is very difficult for these tribes in the Di Ren Holy Land, especially
For the Di wizard responsible for the mysterious side, it was even more of a betrayal and humiliation. So after Fei Yi gave these people another path to choose, they were naturally willing to cooperate...
Although Yang Wanwan on the other side had achieved a certain victory and successfully ambushed the Han soldiers who came to pursue him, there was nothing he could do in front of Miandi who had reinforcements and was defended by Zhuge Liang. Not only was he originally
The life and death of the Jiandi County Magistrate could not stir up the slightest disturbance, and even the attacks for days were in vain, with heavy casualties.
So, when the Di people in the Di Ren Holy Land contacted Yang Wanwan and said that they wanted to confirm the ownership of the "Di Ren King" and conduct a "coronation" ceremony, Yang Wanwan was doubtful, and then the attack was blocked again.
, with the mentality that there would be no loss if you give it a try, and maybe you can get some bargains for nothing, you took some people to the Holy Land of Di Ren.
After Zhuge Liang arrived in Sichuan and Shu, after learning about the local conditions and visiting many places with Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang did realize that the natural terrain restrictions between Sichuan and Shu could not be modeled like those in Guanzhong and Hanzhong.
So Zhuge Liang proposed a strategy similar to the one he used to pacify Nanzhong in history. He suppressed the rebellion with one hand and appeased him with the other. He paid equal attention to kindness and power, killed the culprits, and at the same time recruited warriors from his tribes. In this way, he could weaken the power of these tribes.
The armed force can, secondly, use these people who have come out to contain the tribes, and thirdly, it can gradually implement the enlightenment strategy...
Zhuge Liang's strategy was approved by Xu Shu. He fought and pulled at the same time. He was fighting die-hards such as Yang Wanwan and pulling back some Di tribes like those in the Holy Land of Di who preferred neutrality and hated war.
Of course, Zhuge Liang must first be able to block Yang Wanwan's advance.
Not only here in Jiandi, but also in Yinping, Huyou, and the important passages around Diren, there are actually arrangements. Because Zhuge Liang didn't know where Yang Wanwan would appear from before, so it was impossible to search all over the mountains and plains.
, just like a hunter who always first looks for traces of animals when hunting, being aimless will only be in vain.
Once the prey appears, it is easy to deal with it. Whether it is setting a trap or using a bow, arrow and spear, you can always find a way to deal with it...
Just like now, Zhuge Liang is actually using a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, Fei Yi is responsible for disrupting the Di people's rear, which further widens the original rift between the Di people. On the other hand, he is also planning an action against Yang Wanwan's troops. But it's just that.
What Zhuge Liang didn't expect was that Fei Yi was very capable. After entering the Di people's holy land, he not only succeeded in deepening the conflict between the Di people, but even proposed a strategy to take the opportunity to get rid of Yang Wanwan.
For a time, the combination of Zhuge Liang and Fei Yi formed a strategic crushing blow to the Di people.
According to Fei Yi's words to the people in the Di Ren Holy Land, as long as Yang Wanwan, the "chief culprit", is killed, the rest of the people can be pardoned, and the threat of war will naturally be eliminated...
Just like Yang Wanwan's attitude that he might as well give it a try, these people in the Di Ren Holy Land also felt that they could give it a try. It would naturally be beneficial if it succeeded, but it didn't seem to be any worse if it failed.
What? Division and contradiction?
Wasn't the previous situation a split? Wasn't there any conflict between the mysterious Di Ren wizard here in the Di Ren Holy Land and Yang Wan Wan, who wanted to become king by force alone?
For these enemy wizards on the mysterious side of the Di people's holy land, will they consider the scientific progress and population development of the Di people? Obviously impossible. They are more concerned about whether they can strengthen the loyalty of ordinary Di people to the Di people's gods.
, and then they can get more offerings! This is the important issue these wizards consider!
Therefore, with the help of the Han people, whether it is "punishment" or "elimination", isn't it a normal operation to completely wipe out the body and soul of some people who "betrayed the gods"?
"King of Di Ren" Yang Wanwan came. Although he didn't really get this title, he was very impressive. After arriving at the Holy Land of Di Ren, he had some conflicts with the Di Ren wizard. If it weren't for the great wizard of Di Ren
If you show up, you will get into trouble on the spot.
In ancient times, the Di people did not have kings and leaders, and they all consulted ghosts and gods. Like most human beings in natural tribes, when they could not understand natural phenomena, they worshiped some gods and used divine power to explain some things. Therefore,
In ancient times, wizards had a very high status, and this is still the case in the Diren Holy Land.
These wizards are responsible for various sacrifices, divination, etc., as well as some basic medical treatment, and even have a small part of the responsibility of inheriting primitive culture.
These wizards are considered by ordinary Di people to be special people who can communicate with ancestors and ghosts and gods, so they will naturally have special respect for them. However, Yang Wanwan feels that these guys are just pretending to be gods...
The Di Ren Great Wizard has thick colored lines on his face and body. These lines are painted with plant and mineral pigments year after year. Over time, these colors seem to grow on the Di Ren Great Wizard.
The same is true for his body, even as he grows older, the wind and rain will not necessarily fade or diminish.
In previous ancient times, this was considered a "miracle".
But now faced with such a "miracle", Yang Wanwan obviously didn't care at all.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Yang Qianwan said carelessly, "When will the ceremony be held? If I become the king, you will also benefit!"
The great wizard rolled his eyelids, looked at Yang Wanwan silently for a while, and finally nodded and said: "In that case, let's get started..."
Originally, Yang Wanwan was supposed to fast for a few days and then report to the gods before performing the ceremony, but Yang Wanwan didn't care about this and even thought it was just a hypocritical act.
Continuing up the mountain road behind the great wizard's residence, we didn't go far when we saw a stone cave halfway up the mountain, entwined with vines, and two little wizards stationed outside.
It is said that this cave is where the earliest ancestors of the Di people lived, and it is also the place where the gods of the Di people receive blessings.
Whether it is true or false is actually untestable, but because the previous kings of Di Ren were all crowned in this cave, well, maybe it is not very appropriate to say "coronation". Instead, it may be better to get the blessing of the gods.
More appropriate.
The great wizard stopped at the entrance of the cave, then turned to look at Yang Wanwan, pointed at the guards following Yang Wanwan, and said: "If you enter the cave and accept the blessings of the gods, you can become the king of the Di people... But the king
There is only one..."
Yang Qianwan laughed, turned around and said, "You guys wait here!"
"King!" The guard was a little worried.
Yang Wanwan glanced at the old wizard next to him and laughed. He felt that he could crush this thin wizard to death with his little fingers. If he really brought guards in, wouldn't he be laughed at?
Besides, the great wizard didn't ask to get rid of the weapon. If you have a knife in your hand, why are you afraid of this old man? Even if you really encounter any situation, just yell...
The great wizard nodded and walked into the cave first.
Yang Wanwan followed behind him, placing his hand on the weapon on his waist and looking around.
On the stone wall near the entrance of the cave, there are some colorful paintings. These paintings are not many colors and the lines are not complicated, but they are the purest civilization transmission of the Di people, but because the research speed is slower, so
Until now, I haven't finished reading the progress bar, and I haven't formed any confusing text yet.
There are also torches lit inside the cave, and the air does not seem dull. It is obvious that the cave is well ventilated, and perhaps the entrance is not the only one in front of you...
The great wizard and Yang Wanwan turned a corner, and the cave suddenly opened up.
There are many stalactites of different colors in the naturally formed cavity. Under the light of torches, they shine with intoxicating dreamlike colors. At the other end of the cave, there is a multicolored stone base that looks like a throne. Multicolored
Of course, the appearance of the stone seat cannot be as regular as a regular chair, but it is obvious that this stone seat, which shows a variety of colors under the light of the torch, is the legendary throne of the "King of Di Ren" that was blessed by the gods.
!
On the throne, there is a ring inlaid with some gems, which is the "Crown" of King Di Ren.
Looking at the colorful throne, Yang Wanwan couldn't help but feel a little obsessed. He took two steps forward and then discovered that there was a pool of water in front of the throne. It was the surface of this pool of water that reflected the brilliance of the torch, making the colors on the throne look so bright.
It seemed to be alive, rippling slightly.
"Put everything down, take off your clothes, swim over, sit on it, put it on, you will be the king of the Di people..." The great wizard said slowly, his face hidden in the shadow of the fire, "We are all here, you
How long are you going to hold on to your dirty knife? This is the place where the gods watch. Are you going to pollute the holy water?"
Yang Wanwan raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Who said you can't carry a knife? Did God say it, or did you say it? If God said it, let him come out! Come out and say it!"
"..." The great wizard was silent.
"Hahaha..." Yang Wanwan laughed loudly, and then snorted, "God doesn't even speak, so you're talking nonsense!" After saying that, Yang Wanwan didn't take off his clothes, let alone take off his sword.
He went forward and stepped onto the edge of the pool, causing the sound of rushing water to echo in the cave...
