"Your envoy is right!" Master Fu Yan stood up slowly, opened his hands, and bowed: "China has indeed been a country of etiquette since ancient times!"
"Zuo Zhuan said: Because of the great etiquette, it is called Xia, and because of the beauty of the clothes, it is called Hua!"
"But..." A trace of ridicule flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty must have heard that there is another saying in our country, and this sentence is..."
A fierce light flashed in his eyes: "It is better for the Yi and Di to have a king than for the Xia to perish!"
He faced the direction of Weiyang Palace and bowed: "Now that the Holy Emperor of China is on the throne, the barbarians from all over the world do not come to bow their heads and pay tribute, but instead want to be on par with the Holy Emperor. What's the point?"
"Since ancient times, there are no two days in the sky, and no two masters on the earth. There are saints in China who come from all directions to come to court, and all the ministers in the world are all ministers. This is the ancient truth!"
Brother Hu Yanzhe narrowly escaped being angered by the shameless face of this Han Dynasty official.
The Huns have never submitted to China since ancient times.
Since Maodun Chanyu, the relationship between the Xiongnu and the Han has been established through decades of diplomatic exchanges.
It's the relationship between an older brother and a younger brother.
Among them, the Xiongnu is the eldest brother and the Han is the younger brother.
Now, after the Han Dynasty had won several battles, it was about to tear up all these peace and affinity treaties, and even turned its back on them, overturning the Han-Hungarian relationship that had existed for decades.
Not only that, the Han Dynasty people also ambitiously wanted to ride on the head of the Xiongnu Chanyu and make the Huns bow their heads?
How can this be!
Huyan Dangtu felt that unless all the Huns died, this would never happen. The proud Huns warriors would never accept such an unreasonable attitude from the Han Dynasty!
but……
Brother Hu Yanzhe didn't know that China has been like this since ancient times. If you are poor, you can only take care of yourself. If you are rich, you can help the world.
This is not only the ambition of scholar-bureaucrats, but also the characteristics of this country.
No one has ever made the people of this land give up their lofty aspirations.
This country was born with the temperament and mission to rule the world and dominate the universe.
And China does have such confidence and heritage.
In the entire known world, apart from the Zhuxia Civilization Circle, is there a second form of civilization?
No!
Not to mention the form of civilization, even alien races and civilizations with their own writing and systems are zero.
Of course, there were indeed various other civilizations different from the Zhu Xia civilization that appeared and existed in the long river of history.
But, in the end, all Xia civilizations completely digested and assimilated this civilization.
Turn desert into summer!
Just like the once glorious Bashu civilization, the builder of Sanxingdui.
Just like Jiuli who once fought against the ancestors of Yan and Huang.
It is also like the Dongyi tribe that has been entangled with the Xiahou clan and the Yin and Shang Dynasties for thousands of years.
But today, these former rivals and enemies are already part of Zhu Xia.
No more barriers, no more hostility, no more bloodshed.
Brother Huyanzhe doesn't know this, so he naturally can't understand that these are only the pride of China.
Since ancient times, when the Holy King came out, I am the only one who dominates the world!
All barbarians and barbarians have no other option except to be inspired by divine grace.
Moreover, to the current Han family, the thoughts of Huyan Zhege or the Xiongnu Chanyu are of little importance.
China's rise and pace of dominating the world are already unstoppable.
The Hun cavalry, even if cheated, can no longer reverse this process.
Because the gap between the size, national strength and resources of the Han and Hungarians has become irreparable!
Therefore, Zhu Fuyan's confidence was so strong that his self-confidence was extremely high.
I think back then, when the Xiongnu were powerful, there were Confucian pioneers and pioneers who went deep into the grasslands to brainwash the nobles of the Xiongnu tribe and promote Chinese culture.
As for now?
Chinese scholar-officials no longer need to be secretive and evasive, and do not dare to show their civilization and cultural advancement in front of the Huns.
Now, it is time for the Zhuxia civilization to take the initiative and fully invade and brainwash the Xiongnu and any other grassland tribes.
Confucians are not the only ones interested in turning barbarians into summer.
Strategists are equally interested.
However, the difference is that Confucianism wants to use warmth, tolerance and morality to influence the Yi and Di, making them admire China and automatically succumb to it.
The advantage of this method is that as long as it is successful, there will be no sequelae.
But politicians don't have such good patience.
Therefore, they simply use their sharp tongue to humiliate and attack their opponents as much as possible, causing them to lose confidence and lose confidence in their own country and nation.
This creates a sense of inferiority.
Once this sense of inferiority arises, you can take the opportunity to promote your own ideas.
This set of methods is simple and crude, and the success rate is very high!
Once upon a time, Fan Sui traveled all over the world with a guard of honor, and he was always in trouble.
However, the requirements for national strength are very high!
Generally speaking, you must have a crushing advantage over your opponent to be effective.
Otherwise, it is just a waste of saliva.
This is also the reason why strategists have declined and died out in recent decades.
Without a stage, no one would know the best actor.
Without the court, even Jordan is just a passerby.
But now, as the Battle of Gaoque comes to an end, Master Yan knows that the golden age of the strategists has arrived again.
He went out as envoys with integrity, traveled to all countries, entered and exited the courts of enemy countries, used his sharp tongue to sow discord, and relied on a pair of eyes that could penetrate people's hearts to intimidate and lure.
He defeated an army of millions without a single blow, and with a single move of his hand, Zhongliang was left in despair.
This is the strategist.
To the world, Qu Zi is a tragic figure and an example of a scholar-bureaucrat who cared about the country and the people.
For politicians, Qu Zi is their pride and greatest honor.
Is there anything else that can better demonstrate one's abilities than using one's mouth to make enemy kings destroy the Great Wall, to make loyal ministers shed tears, and to make righteous men bleed?
there is none left!
Therefore, Zhufu Yan hardly gave his opponent any time to react. He took a step forward, held up his ribbon, and said: "Qi Fu, the Huns have no etiquette, no culture, no system, no writing, and the Huns are like beasts...
…”
"I heard that the Huns were vulgar and despicable, and did not care for their parents. Brothers, fathers, sons, and sisters were in an unruly relationship. Therefore, God was angry and made everyone in the Huns guilty, and every household suffered disaster!"
"Therefore, the Huns are short and vulgar, and their offspring are all deformed. Even the Shan Yu's offspring, none of them can live to adulthood. It is really sad!"
After this combination of punches, Brother Huyanzhe and the other two members of the mission were speechless, and they couldn't even find anything to refute.
I think back then, when the Xiongnu were strong and powerful, under the auspices of the Bank of China, the Han envoys also accused the Xiongnu of being vulgar and despicable, not caring for their parents and their elders, coupled with chaotic relationships, step marriages and internal chaos within the family, making it almost impossible to take care of themselves.
In the end, this big discussion was stopped only by acting rogue and using violence to intimidate.
But later, the Huns themselves felt that it was really bad to do so.
A series of reforms began.
But the changes come and go, but they are only on the surface and maintained at the top.
As for the middle and lower classes, they have not been touched at all.
Therefore, the Huns' infant malformation rate and mother-infant survival rate were very low. Therefore, almost no middle- and lower-class herdsmen of the Huns could live to the age of fifty.
Living in Xiongnu, you may not feel much at all.
But when we arrived in the Han Dynasty, this strong contrast and comparison suddenly became apparent.
Even Brother Huyanzhe had to admit that the Xiongnu and the Han were not at the same level of civilization or nation.
In terms of civilization, the Han Dynasty was indeed qualified to guide and educate the Xiongnu.
Moreover, now the Han Dynasty is strong and the Huns are weak.
The Han army has already controlled Yulinsai and Yinshan.
This means that the Han cavalry stationed in Yinshan can attack Qilian Mountain and Yanzhi Mountain to the west, enter Junji Mountain to the north, and even cross the Hanhai to reach Langjuxu Mountain.
In addition, Longcheng, the ancestral mausoleum of the Xiongnu and the resting place of Mao Dun and the elder Shanyu, has in fact completely entered the attack radius of the Han cavalry.
If the Han Dynasty is offended, the Han Dynasty cavalry will go out of the Yinshan Mountains, whether it is to attack the Qilian Mountains, compete with the Xiongnu for Hexi, or attack the Junji Mountains to cut off the entire Muannan, or even attack Longcheng, forcing Maodun and Laoshang Shanyu from
Graves dug.
These are things that the current Huns cannot stop.
Now, the Huns finally experienced what the Han army and people felt more than ten years ago when they were in their heyday, standing high and threatening the Han frontiers and Chang'an.
Moreover, compared with the Han Dynasty back then, the leverage the Xiongnu had now was almost zero.
The Xiongnu cavalry could not defeat the Han Dynasty army, nor could they resist and contain the Han Dynasty's divine cavalry.
This means that the Xiongnu can only watch helplessly as the Han Dynasty takes whatever they want from them.
You can neither fight back nor resist.
Because that is sending death.
Apart from fleeing and retreating, exchanging space and land for time, there is almost no other choice.
However, the Huns have now lost the Hejian Land, Gaoque, and Yinshan Mountains.
Are you going to lose Hexi again?
Then the Western Region will fall within the attack radius of the Han Dynasty army!
Giving up Junji Mountain is equivalent to giving up Munan.
Even Dragon City...
And Shanyu dares to abandon Hexi, Junji Mountain, and Dragon City?
Besides, if they continue to give up, how many places will the Xiongnu eventually have to give up to avoid the Han Dynasty's attack?
After knowing clearly that even if they were killed, the progress of the Han Dynasty people would not be hindered.
Huyan Dangtu had to think about another problem.
A matter of kneeling down to the Han Dynasty and begging for peace.
Therefore, he did not dare to refute Zhufu Yan's question, let alone argue with him.
He was like a student who was severely criticized by the teacher for doing something wrong. He could only lower his head and remain silent.
This made Master Yan feel very happy.
The onlookers outside were even more excited after learning about this incident.
Many people are thinking in their hearts: Do you, the Huns, also have this day?
A refreshing feeling of revenge arose spontaneously.
However, Brother Huyanzhe had no other option.
Because weak countries have no diplomacy.
In front of the powerful Han Dynasty, as Shanyu's envoy, he must compromise and consider the overall situation.
Even if he knew that, even if he knelt down, the Han Dynasty people would still continue to attack when they should attack!
But he did not dare to take the responsibility of provoking the anger of the Han emperors and ministers and leading to the destruction of the Xiongnu.
He could only tell himself in his heart: "For the great Huns, I must endure the humiliation and bear the burden!"
Little did he know that there were several painters sitting behind the screen behind Master Yan.
They are holding charcoal pencils and drawing pictures of the scene at this moment. (To be continued.)
