Hu Chuquan fell into deep contemplation. He had only been the chief chanyu for less than a month, so why was he about to step down so soon?
When Gao Fei saw that Hu Chuquan was silent, he frowned tightly and said slowly: "Since the creation of Pangu, our land of China has experienced three emperors and five emperors. After that, everyone in our land of China calls themselves the descendants of Yan and Huang, and
All the people living in our land of China are collectively called Huaxia. Xiongnu, Wuwan, Fuyu, Gao
Juli, and even North Korea, are all from China. Whether you are the five ethnic groups or we Han people, you are all the people of China. In order to let us get along better, I summoned you all to Jicheng.
I want to say, in fact, our ancestors are all one family, why can’t we be one family?”
According to "Historical Records", the ancestors of the Huns were survivors of the Xia Dynasty.
"Historical Records? Biography of the Xiongnu" records: "The Xiongnu, the descendants of the Xia and later clans, are called Chunwei. In the Tang and Yu periods, there were Shanrong, Xianyun, and Xunzhu, who lived in the north and moved with grass and livestock raising."
This means that Chunwei, a descendant of Xia, fled to the north during the Shang Dynasty, and his descendants multiplied and became the Xiongnu.
There is also a theory that the descendants of Xia who moved to the north were the sons of Xia Jie. Xia Jie died after being exiled for three years. His son Maowen took the wives and concubines left behind by his father and took refuge in Beiye, migrating with his livestock.
What China calls the Xiongnu.
Based on the second half of the records in "Historical Records", some scholars believe that the Xiongnu were originally Shanrong, yangxu, and Xunzhu. Wang Guowei's "Kunyi yangxu Kao", the name of the Xiongnu was
Evolution made a systematic summary and believed that the Guifang, Hunyi, and Maohu in the Shang Dynasty, the 烋狁 in the Zhou Dynasty, the Rong and Di in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the Hu in the Warring States Period were all the so-called Xiongnu in later generations.
But no matter how you say it, it confirms the fact that the Huns are descendants of China, so Gao Fei's words can be said to have touched the heart of Huchuquan and humbled the Huns.
The Xiongnu have been a major trouble for the Han people since the Qin and Han Dynasties. Wars often broke out between the two sides, and they gradually became enemies. It was not until the Xiongnu split between the north and the south, with the northern Xiongnu fleeing far away, and the southern Xiongnu surrendering to the Han Dynasty, that such wars stopped.
for a long time.
But the Southern Huns who surrendered to the Han Dynasty did not have an easy time. They lost their original base outside the Great Wall. The Xianbei people who rose in the east took advantage of the situation and occupied their ancestral land. In order to protect themselves, the Huns had to rely solely on the embrace of the Han Dynasty. However,
, but the big man did not regard them as his own, but suppressed them whenever he could, restrained them in one place, and was not allowed to leave the fortress without authorization.
Now, Huchuquan, Qubei and others seemed to have found a close friend. Gao Fei's talk about China and China moved them deeply.
In addition to the Huns, Qiu Liju and other Karasuma people, Yi Yimo and other Goguryeo people, as well as King Buyu and the three Korean princes on the Korean peninsula all agreed with Gao Fei's statement and were filled with joy in their hearts.
.
Finally, Huchuquan finally made a statement and shouted loudly: "I, the Xiongnu, are willing to permanently accept the canonization of the Yan Kingdom. From now on, the Huns are the subjects of the Yan Kingdom and the future subjects of your majesty."
"Starting from today, I solemnly promise that you, Xiongnu, Wuwan, Goguryeo, Fuyu, and the five ethnic groups of Korea will officially become the people of the Yan Kingdom. Let us toast to our future and jointly build a multi-ethnic China.
China! Cheers!" Gao Fei said enthusiastically after hearing this.
"Cheers!" The others raised their glasses high and drank happily.
A.D. 190, the ninth day of September.
The morning sun has not yet risen, and dark red clouds moistened by dew float faintly on the eastern plain, and occasionally a few chirps can be heard in the cold air. The mountains are still deeply hidden in the rising sun, and their outlines are blurred.
, but like a yawning giant, with just the slightest movement, its terrifying figure is revealed.
A moment later, the rich red sun suddenly burst out with a ray of light in the mist, reflecting the peaks of the distant mountains in its own brilliance.
The palace, which has been expanded for a month, was officially completed yesterday. There are many palaces and pavilions, row upon row and well-proportioned. The whole palace is magnificent and magnificent. From a distance, it looks like a shrine in the sky settling down on earth.
On this day, there was unprecedented excitement in Jicheng, and the enthronement ceremony that had been prepared for a long time was officially held.
Wearing a dragon robe and a crown, Gao Fei rode in a huge canopy-covered cart and was pulled by sixteen horses of the same color. He circled Jicheng to receive the congratulations of all the people.
After a long while, he slowly drove into the palace in Jicheng. According to the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, he worshiped heaven and earth, read out the proclamation, accepted the congratulations of hundreds of officials, and officially proclaimed himself emperor.
Gao Fei took Huaxia as the country name and Shenzhou as the year name, and adopted the AD calendar, with 190 AD as the first year of Shenzhou.
Moreover, two power agencies, the Cabinet and the Privy Council, were formally established. The Cabinet manages political affairs, and the Privy Council manages the military. All cabinet members are prime ministers, and all Privy Council members are Taiwei, all of whom hold first-level official positions.
Gao Fei made Tian Feng, Xun Chen, Cai Yong, Guan Ning, and Zhong Yao the first cabinet members; Jia Xu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Gai Xun, and Lu Zhi were the first members of the Privy Council; Bing Yuan was the Minister of Household Affairs;

There is a reward.
After the enthronement ceremony, Gao Fei officially promulgated the first imperial edict of the Huaxia Kingdom, the essence of which is: to abolish slavery, resolutely put an end to the sale of people, re-measure the land nationwide, conduct a census of the population, open schools in all states, prefectures, counties, and townships, and personally
A set of boxing skills was developed during the drill, and people across the country were encouraged to practice martial arts.
Gao Fei proclaimed himself emperor and the news of the founding of China spread quickly throughout the country. On the second day after Gao Fei proclaimed himself emperor, Sun Ce, King of Wu, also formally proclaimed himself emperor in Jianye, and the country was named Wu. Shi Xie, who had separatized Jiaozhou, also publicly proclaimed himself emperor.
, the country name is Yue.
At this point, the six countries of China, Qin, Shu Han, Jing Han, Wu, and Yue stood side by side in the world, and a war about unification officially kicked off...
………………
Qin State, Chang'an.
In the palace hall, Ma Teng sat high on the throne and received congratulations from all the officials.
After the ceremony, Sikong Chenqun immediately left the mission and reported: "Your Majesty, Gao Fei has officially proclaimed himself emperor in Jicheng seven days ago, changed the country's name to Huaxia, the era name to Shenzhou, the capital to Jicheng, and Soochow.
Sun Ce and Shi Xie of Jiaozhou proclaimed themselves emperors one after another, and the world was divided into six parts. In the troubled autumn, I thought that in order to prevent the Chinese state from attacking Guanzhong, more troops should be sent to garrison the border fortresses and passes."
"Accurate!" Although Ma Teng was forced to be the emperor, facts proved that he was still willing to be the emperor, and he did a pretty good job. As soon as he returned to Chang'an, he listened to the suggestions of Yang Biao, Chen Qun and others.
, sent Prince Ma Chao to Liangzhou to pacify the various tribes of the Western Qiang, and gradually stabilized the slightly turbulent Qin State with light corvee and low taxes.
"Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report. The Shu Han army was wandering around Baishui Pass a few days ago. I think the Shu Han should be spying on Wudu County. Wudu is close to Guanghan. Our army has conquered Zhanglu in Hanzhong before and captured them all.
The crowd has blocked the Shu Han's way out and sought a way out for Meng. The Shu Han army should attack Wudu County.
, and then attack Hanzhong together. I thought that both Hanzhong and Wudu were in danger. His Highness the Crown Prince had rushed to Liangzhou for a long time, and the Qiang tribes were almost pacified. It was time for His Highness the Crown Prince to return to the capital. Then he asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to deal with the Shu Han army.
It will definitely make the Shu Han army fearful." Chen Qun continued.
Although Ma Teng became the emperor, the impulsiveness and bloodiness in his body were still there. He shook his head and said: "The Western Qiang are the foundation of our Qin country. The Qiang people are aggressive and have countless warriors. If the Qin Dynasty wants to recruit troops, the Qiang people are the first choice.
.Meng Qi was just full when he entered the cold
In January, there were too many Qiang tribes, and I am afraid that not even half of them have been visited. Recalling Meng Qi at this time is undoubtedly killing the goose to lay eggs. Liu Zhang's Shu Han are just clowns, so why should they be afraid? I am preparing to personally march against the Shu Han army and let him
There’s no coming back!”
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, must not do this." Chen Qun hurriedly stopped him.
"Why not?"
"Your Majesty is the king of a country. How can you be so careless? The Shu Han are just clowns. It's better to just appoint a general to lead the army to resist. I think General Zhang Xiu of the Guard can take on this task."
Ma Teng was very awkward, but he had to listen to Chen Qun's opinion. After all, he didn't know much about governing the country. Most of the strategies he adopted were proposed by Chen Qun, and he also had high regard for the Chen family. Basically,
He obeyed the advice. So, he nodded and said: "In that case, Zhang Xiu has been sent to station 10,000 troops in Xiabian, Wudu to prevent the Shu Han army from sneak attacks. In addition, Suo Xu has been sent to station in Hanzhong to strengthen prevention."
"I obey the decree!"
Above the court, Xun Yu, Xu Shu, Liu Ye, and Man Chong all listened very carefully. Since these people came here, their lives have been very unsatisfactory. They are often followed and they do not meet in private. Even Cao Cao also
He has always been taken by Ma Chao.
After the morning session, the four of them were all thinking about how long such days would last. Looking up at the sky, they seemed to see Cao Cao's confident face and lonely heart. As if they had found a clear path, they strode towards the outside of the palace.
Let the people watching them follow...
Xiliang, Shaodang Qiang tribe.
"Master, this is a superstition sent by Xu Shu from Chang'an. Please take a look at it." Xu Chu walked into the yurt, glanced at the melancholy Cao Cao, then bent down and handed over a letter.
Cao Cao hurriedly took it. After a quick glance, a smile appeared on his lips. Then he burned the letter and said to Xu Chu: "Things are going as I expected. The day of restoration is not far away."
