Doupeng's brows wrinkled: "Ancestor, you said before that the conquest of Tianzhu by these ghost tribes was bloody and bloody, so that the land of Tianzhu was full of wronged souls and ghosts. After hundreds of years and thousands of years,
This is how Buddhism emerged, right?"
The ancestor nodded, his face became solemn, and said: "Yes, the land of ancient Tianzhu was also called Shendu. This land had a hot climate, but there was a big river named Huan River that ran from north to south.
It travels through the entire land of Tianzhu, so in this big river
On both sides of the Taiwan Strait, there are large areas of farmland suitable for planting. After all, the people of Tianzhu are also blessed by their gods, who also teach them farming and other techniques, just like the ancestors of tribes such as Sanmiao and Jiuli in the south.
Crops such as rice will be grown.”
"These indigenous people of Tianzhu are called Dravina people. Because they are located in the south, they have dark skin. Some of them look like what we call Kunlun slaves. They look a bit scary, but they are mostly scattered in the form of tribes.
They lived on the Huanhe Plain, farmed and settled, and some small villages were initially established. However, they were far away from the cities, fortresses, and stone villages on this side of the Central Plains.
There are still many gaps in the castle. Although these Dravina people look scary, they are relatively peaceful in nature and do not like fighting very much. Because they entered the farming era early and the harvests are good, they are not like those in the north.
Like other peoples and tribes, they have been fighting ferocious beasts for many years, making a living by hunting, and have developed powerful skills such as archery and assassination."
The black robe sighed: "If a country only has farmers and no soldiers, the result will be miserable, because farming only requires bending down and picking up a hoe, while planting rice requires bending down to plant rice in the paddy field. This is different from that in
Compared with setting up traps in the forest to surround ferocious beasts, or riding horses on the grassland to shoot foxes and wolves, there is a huge difference. Oh, yes, there is also this horse.
In the paddy fields, you should have never seen such things as war horses and chariots. Just like the Sanmiao and Jiuli tribes, and the southern tribes in Central China, when they encounter these iron horses and chariots from the north, it is simply impossible to see them.
They are vulnerable, so to speak, these dark-skinned Dravina people will be in dire straits if they encounter these ghost-killing gods from the north."
Doupeng said coldly: "If the farming people want to defeat the nomadic tribes on these grasslands, in addition to letting the gods bless them and their ancestors to appear, they also need to rely on the huge advantage in population and the high yield of agricultural crops to make a considerable number of people
It can only be separated from agricultural production and dedicated to fighting, just like the Northern and Southern Army of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Central Army of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the state and county soldiers, or to put it bluntly, the Northern Army soldiers like Liu Yu, who have hundreds of thousands of followers.
Only an army capable of fighting at any time and skilled in fighting can suppress the Hulu tribe in the north. This requires a unified country that can mobilize the power of the whole country, and these dark-skinned Dravina tribes, they
There is not even a unified leader, and they are divided into hundreds or thousands of independent tribes, and they are scattered. The Guifang tribe, which is well organized and has moved its clan south, will undoubtedly be slaughtered one-sidedly by tigers and sheep."
The ancestor nodded and said: "Yes, the gods of Tianzhu in the past probably knew such a thing, so they used the power of the gods to erect a huge mountain range in the north as a barrier to isolate the land of Tianzhu from other places.
The connection with the place is just like the connection with our Middle-earth and Central Plains, and also with the current
The huge mountains in the west, that is, the huge mountains thousands of miles west of Tuyuhun and the Congling area further south, are covered with snow all year round and are as high as ten thousand meters. They are stronger than any fortress in the world. They can be said to be the gods of Tianzhu.
, the greatest reliance on protecting the people of Tianzhu from external aggression."
"However, the Guifang tribe is also protected by powerful evil gods. They sacrificed a large number of prisoners of war and slaves, and also used manpower. They even used some ignorant people of Tianzhu and the tribes of Daxia to make them believe that they could pass through
Marriage and trade between Guifang tribes
After obtaining huge wealth, they took the initiative to provide them with access through the mountains. Over hundreds of years, the tall mountains opened up a thousand-mile mountain road for them like Tongguan Pass and Hangu Pass, and the end of the mountain road,
It is a majestic pass known as Iron Gate Pass."
"This Iron Gate Pass can be said to be blocked by one man and cannot be opened by ten thousand people. However, there is no unbreakable fortress in the world. The Guifang tribe used various means to finally break through this Iron Gate Pass. Since then, hundreds of thousands of
The Guifang tribe, like the evil ghost Shura released from hell, rushed
Leaving the high mountains and heading straight towards the endless plains, countless Black Pidharavinai tribes were defeated, hundreds of thousands and millions of people were massacred, and those who survived became these ghost tribes, or in other words
, called the slaves of the Aryans by the tribes of Tianzhu.”
The black robe murmured: "Aryans, Aryans, they sound much nicer than the Guifang tribe, but what they do is extremely cruel. I heard that in the land of Tianzhu, those last
The Aryans, the Guifang tribe, who conquered the local dark-skinned Dravina people, took their
People in the tribe are also divided into several classes. The highest class is the priests, called Brahmins, the second class is the warriors and nobles, called Kshatriyas, and the third class is commoners, or people, called Vaishyas.
And the conquered Dravina people became slaves, also called Shudras, is that so?"
The ancestor nodded: "Yes, but in addition to these four kinds of people, there is another class of people called untouchables. They are a group of people who are lower than Shudras, or slaves. They are the lowest among slaves.
People with other professions, such as those engaged in unclean industries, such as butchers, sweepers, washerwomen, etc. Even Sudra slaves are not willing to associate with such people. They have been engaged in this kind of despicable job for generations.
, marriage also
They can only intermarry with untouchable people of the same class, but in general, after the Aryans conquered Tianzhu, they took the original dark-skinned Dravina people as slaves and forced them to farm and work to support themselves.
It's a bit like the Chinese people and the savages in the past, but they have never carried out reforms like the Central Plains and liberated the savages. Therefore, the Shudras have been slaves for generations and will never have a chance to stand up."
"If our Middle-earth world was also conquered by these terrible ghost tribes, it would probably be the same result. In fact, there is no need to assume that, look at Jiehu Shizhao, they only established their political power for just over 20 years, and it was almost like this
This model allows Jiehu soldiers of their own tribe to maintain rule and supervise
The various Hu tribes were recruited into the army, and a small number of Han soldiers were also recruited to rule the Han people who constituted the majority of the country's population as serfs, providing them with food and clothing, while the Hu people could become masters and even rob at will in the country.
Killing Han people, even officials." (End of chapter)
