Six hundred and sixtieth chapters Bo Shi's ambition
Canghaijun's Mansion.≧,
It is located in the very center of Xinhua City, close to the Huyi Duwei Yamen of Xinhua City. In front of the tall threshold, two phoenixes look up to the sky and roar.
Today is the most important traditional religious festival for Yao people.
In the past, Yi people would carry white tiger skins around the streets and decorate various totems with fish skins prepared in the summer.
But, it's different now.
The belief of Guankou Erlang from Shu County made a large-scale invasion. Under the strong promotion of Canghaijun Jinxin, the co-leader of the Yao people, Guankou Erlang quickly conquered all the upper-class nobles of the Yao people with his simple, direct and easy-to-understand religious teachings.
As soon as the upper-class nobles fell, the slaves and tribesmen below immediately fell.
Now, the Yi people only worship two gods.
First, Guankou Erlang is naturally omnipotent and can ensure a good harvest and prevent the Heishui River from raging.
Nowadays, almost every Yiren family must first pay homage to Guankou Erlang and ask Guankou Erlang for his blessings every time there is a wedding or other wedding or wedding.
Secondly, of course, it is Shaogao, the ancestor of the Hao people.
As Yuhai achieved an unprecedented harvest this year with the help of the Han people from China, even the most stubborn and conservative Yehao tribes were crying and shouting that they must 'recognize their ancestors and return to their clan'.
Now, even the slaves and children in the Yaoren tribe already know that their ancestor is Shaogao, one of the Five Heavenly Emperors, and that they are all descendants of the Xia Dynasty and nobles of China.
The Han Dynasty and Han Dynasty are closely connected in an unprecedented way.
So far, nearly 3,000 Yiren women have married soldiers or immigrants from the Han Dynasty.
Combined with the earlier group of people, their children can already bab and crawl around on the ground.
Even for families that were only united in the middle of last year, many women are already pregnant.
Although the lower class of the Yi people were not happy about this, they always felt that all the beautiful girls in the tribe had been snatched away by the Han people.
But under the suppression of the superiors, their complaints are no different from farts, and even the impact is pitifully small.
Now, in the Yiren tribe, any man who has some potential and ability has his eyes fixed on the Huyi Duwei Yamen, and the recruitment and selection every season.
Everyone already knows that once you are selected as a soldier by Captain Hu Hao, you will serve in the Hu Hao Army.
He will immediately be registered by Captain Hu Yi and become a glorious Han Dynasty person.
After I got my own household registration, I was assigned a comfortable, spacious and warm house. More importantly, many girls who had thought it was a luxury to even look at it in the past immediately gathered around me, crying and asking to get married.
Therefore, all tribes of the Yi people who have girls are now making up their mind to marry their daughters to the men from the Han Dynasty.
The men of the Han Dynasty were much better than the young men in their own tribe, not only in their knowledge and conversation.
Even his physical fitness is far behind the men of his tribe.
For example, most Yiren men, when they are seventeen or eighteen years old, are only over six feet tall. Moreover, most of them are malnourished, unhygienic, and smelly. If you get even slightly closer, they will be suffocated to death.
.
But the men of the Han Dynasty were different.
Basically, no adult man is less than seven feet tall.
What's more important is that even the thinnest among them, eating meat every day in Xinhua City for more than half a year, has suddenly developed a strong energy, which is reassuring to watch.
As for the men in the Haoren tribe, especially those who were the number one hunter and the first warrior in the tribe in the past, they have not already joined the Huyi army, obtained their household registration books, adopted the Han surname, and lived in the
After arriving at the big house in Xinhua City, we are working hard to prepare for the quarterly selection of the guard army.
Those in the tribe who want to make big news and cause some trouble contact these guys.
Naturally it was ignored.
Some guys even had a tragedy when they went to find the most majestic warrior of the past tribe who had joined the Protector Army, wore armor, held a strong crossbow and a hard bow, and wanted to use his strength to make a big news.
They were directly arrested by the 'number one warrior' whom they admired and admired, and then escorted to the Huyi Army Yamen.
"My surname is Qingyang. You and other barbarians don't want to serve your country and be grateful to the Holy Emperor. Instead, you are full of resentment. Do you really think that there are no loyal ministers in the world?" Almost every former Han soldier who captured his compatriots showed up,
They are all so righteous and upright.
Then, these guys were all appreciated by their superiors and promoted to corps commanders, which is great.
There are even some people who have been put on the recommendation list of the Huyi Duwei Yamen because of their "extremely outstanding" performance, especially their ability to endure hardships and their ability to obey orders. They are waiting for the next spring to thaw before heading to Chang'an to become the god of the Han Dynasty.
The path of a member of the Guards.
This is truly an honor for Yi people.
As for the guys who were arrested?
Captain Hu Yi didn't make things difficult for them, he just handed them over to Cang Haijun for disposal.
And this is undoubtedly a disastrous decision.
The heads of these guys are still hanging by the Heishui River outside Xinhua City, warning all the restless elements in the Yaoren tribe not to cause trouble to labor and management.
After such a plot, the restless elements in the Yiren tribe suddenly became honest.
Of course, after a slap, you have to give a sweet date to comfort you.
Therefore, this year, the Huyi Army Yamen specially left 30% of the dried fish from the fish caught as a subsidy to the Yiren tribe.
Of course the nobles took the lion's share, but the slaves below also shared some of the profits with the ordinary tribesmen.
At least this winter, they don't have to risk their lives to hunt because of hunger.
And those families whose daughters married Han Chinese, or whose sons or brothers served in the Huyi military ceremony, lived a paradise-like life.
As soon as winter came, they were taken to Xinhua City or a nearby village by their son-in-law or son, and lived in a warm big house and slept on a hot pit. They no longer had to worry about winter.
Therefore, the integration between Yi and Han is going very smoothly now.
Nowadays, there are only two types of people.
One type is families that have married daughters or have sons who have served in the Han army. These people have already given themselves Han names, cut themselves off from the past, and are no longer willing to admit that they are Yi people.
The other type is on the road of striving to evolve towards the first type of person.
All day long he was either thinking about marrying his daughter to an immigrant from the Han Dynasty, preferably a soldier, or he was supervising his children at home every day and practicing martial arts in order to join the army and get that precious household registration.
Therefore, in today's festive traditional festival, the people of the Han and Yi ethnic groups have a beautiful situation of loving each other and being as close as one family.
The people of the Yiren tribe knelt down devoutly in front of the statue of Guankou Erlang, praying to the god to bless the fish sea next year to have as good a harvest as this year, so that everyone would not go hungry.
The immigrants of the Han Dynasty, with their own princes, watched all this with great curiosity.
Then, in line with the simple mentality of worshiping one more god and receiving more blessings, everyone also stepped forward with a smile, kowtowed to Erlang Guankou, and asked the True Lord Erlang to bless themselves and their families.
And more than a hundred women with big bellies followed their men with happy faces, proudly showing off to other sisters of the same race how well they married. How many new clothes did their husbands buy for themselves and their children?
and new jewelry.
The other Yiren women looked at these former sisters with envy and jealousy. At the same time, their eyes kept looking at those immigrants from the Han Dynasty who had no female companions, trying to find a suitable target and then go over to strike up a conversation.
In such an atmosphere, Zhang Weiyang took his wife, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law to the Guankou Erlang Temple. Then, he placed the tributes he had brought, knelt down and prayed: "Is this the true Lord Erlang?
I, Zhang Shi Weiyang, worshiped the sacrifice and prayed to me. My dear king, I am four months pregnant. Please protect me and ensure that the mother and child are safe. If a son is born next year, I will offer three sacrifices respectfully to repay God's favor...
…Shang Xiang!”
Regardless of the scope of Guanguchi Erlang's business, there is no such thing as protecting mothers and babies. Anyway, to the Han people, since they are gods, they can pray at will and believe if there is a spirit, and don't believe if it doesn't. They don't care about anything else!
After reciting the prayer devoutly, Zhang Weiyang put the white paper with words on it into the fire plate and watched it burn, but he was filled with emotions in his heart.
Zhang Weiyang has changed a lot compared to half a year ago.
At first, when he followed the immigration team and arrived in Xinhua City.
He only wore a single coat, carried a bag of dry food and a piece of vinegar cloth.
But now, he was wearing clothes made of warm and strong animal skins, and a sheepskin hat on his head to keep out the cold. He had become a little fatter, and at the same time he also had a bookish air.
Now, he already has preliminary reading and writing skills, and he can be regarded as one of the few rare talents in the immigrant team who can read and write.
Therefore, a month ago, he was elected as the village's pavilion soldier by the village where he lived.
In the mainland, pavilion soldiers are part of the corvee, and basically no fool is willing to do it.
But in this new frontier, the status of pavilion soldiers has been greatly strengthened.
After becoming a pavilion soldier, Zhang Weiyang's main job was to organize the men of school age in the village to conduct military training during the slack period, and to liaise with the Huyi Army to provide logistical support for the army when the Huyi Army went on patrol and patrolled the border.
On the border, the military's requirements are above all else.
Correspondingly, the village pavilions and soldiers who serve the army will naturally receive preferential treatment and care from the military.
Not to mention that every time I follow the patrol, I always kill a few wild animals.
As long as the soldiers eat meat, the fur left behind will be advantageous to soldiers like Zhang Weiyang.
In addition, Zhang Weiyang also has the care of his brother, so his life is extremely prosperous.
If we talk about troubles, it is that the two sisters-in-law seem to be thinking about getting into the brother-in-law's bed all day long. What is even more frightening is that these things seem to be instigated by their own sisters-in-law.
Faced with this trouble of happiness, Zhang Weiyang just wanted to say: Is there anything else?
While thinking about this, Zhang Weiyang was grateful in his heart to the Holy Emperor who brought him all this.
He is not the Holy Emperor. He is just a wandering in Handan, hungry and full, and despised by others. How can he live a happy life now?
Thinking of this, Zhang Weiyang turned around and told Xijun: "Tomorrow, I will go on a long trip with the army, Xijun is at home. Stay here for a while, don't worry about it. It can take as long as a month, or as short as half a month. I will definitely come back.
!”
His younger brother, Huo Pingjun, caressed his belly and nodded obediently, like a docile little rabbit, which made Zhang Weiyang feel warm in his heart, as if he had drunk wine.
However, the two sisters-in-law immediately gathered around him and chirped, rubbing their small breasts hard against the brother-in-law's arms. They asked: "Brother-in-law, how come you have to go for so long, and the mountain is about to be closed...Brother-in-law, can you?"
I have to go out..."
Touching the hair of the two little girls, Zhang Weiyang smiled and said: "This is an errand sent by the Holy Emperor. My brother-in-law must go!"
As soon as the words "Sheng Tianzi" were said, the little girls immediately became quiet.
Nowadays, brainwashing work is not only carried out on the Han people, but also on the Yi people tribe. It can almost be called the largest god-making movement by mankind before the Christian era.
The emperor of Chang'an is no longer a human being in the hearts of most people, but a living god-king.
Omnipotent, omniscient, omnipotent, capable of crushing mountains and moving rivers with just a flip of his hand.
Last year, the Han Dynasty used large boats and trawl nets to carry out non-stop fishing operations, which made this idea even more ingrained.
To the Hao people, it was already a miracle that the Han people used huge boats and incredibly huge nets to catch fish.
It developed later. Even every time the boat returned, the Hao people kneeling near the dock were full of pilgrims and worshippers. Especially the Ye Hao tribe, they were crying and shouting, wanting to kiss the giant net that caught countless fish.
Every time those trawl nets were dried and repaired, someone would sneak to the drying site and pick up the fallen net ropes and take them home as sacred objects.
In some Yehao tribes, there is even a legend that the sacred object (net rope) can cure all difficult and complicated diseases and get rid of all monsters and ghosts.
So much so that the governor's office of the Huyi Army had to send out a team of troops every time the trawl net was dried to drive away those who tried to sneak in and take the net ropes home to offer as sacred objects.
Zhang Weiyang's two sisters-in-law, although they have been with Zhang Weiyang for a long time, are not as superstitious as other Yi people.
However, the respect and awe for the Holy Emperor, the divine king, is no less than that of others.
Under such circumstances, the sisters-in-law naturally nodded obediently immediately.
Zhang Weiyang then told the brothers-in-law: "When my brother-in-law is not at home, you have to take care of your sister and help with cooking and cooking. Don't let your sister work too hard. Do you understand?"
"Nuo!" Three young men ranging in age from seventeen to thirteen years old, imitating the Han people, clasped their fists and bowed: "Brother-in-law, please rest assured, we will definitely take good care of my sister!"
Zhang Weiyang nodded with confidence, and then said: "I will send you to the eldest brother first. The eldest brother will send someone to take you home. Remember, be obedient at home!"
"promise!"
Seeing Xijun and his brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law agreeing one after another, Zhang Weiyang also laughed.
But in his heart, he was still a little worried.
Indeed, this mission is very difficult.
This time, he will serve as a guide and follow the delegation of the Governor's Yamen to an unknown and wild land.
"Rao Le Shui..." Zhang Weiyang sighed in his heart.
As a quasi-intellectual, Zhang Weiyang naturally knew where this river that had been recorded by the Qin people was.
It was two thousand miles away, in a wild area far away from civilization and the Xia.
It is said that there are also human-eating snakes and ferocious beasts and poisonous insects in the local area.
At the same time, it will snow soon, and the temperature outside is getting lower and lower.
In such a season, Zhang Weiyang would not want to leave the warm and safe settlement and go to unknown wilderness areas if possible.
However, there is no other way. This is an order from the Huyi Duwei Yamen, and it is also an order from the Holy Emperor.
You have to go if you want to go, you have to go if you don’t want to go!
Who knows? He was the only one who had followed the patrol team to the wilderness thousands of miles to the north last summer and had a certain understanding of the local area.
Send his wife and children to his brother's home.
The elder brother was not at home, but the two sisters-in-law were at home with their children to warm themselves by the fire. Zhang Weiyang made a gift, settled his wife and children, and then turned around and went out to Huyi Duwei's Yamen.
When Zhang Weiyang arrived at the Huyi Duwei Yamen, reported his name, and handed in a wooden slip with his name, appearance and characteristics, he was taken by the soldiers to a military camp outside Xinhua City.
In the military camp, the members of the mission have completed their preparations.
Zhang Weiyang looked at the entire mission. There were probably dozens of people, a hundred large dogs and more than a dozen sleds.
Zhang Weiyang has seen this kind of sleigh more than once.
His mother-in-law had one at home. This simple sled was the main vehicle used by people to hunt during the heavy snow season, and the dogs were the driving force of the vehicle.
In September last year, the Huyi Duwei Yamen had already recruited dozens of men from the Yiren tribe who were good at raising dogs and driving sleds to join the army.
Here, Zhang Weiyang saw several well-dressed men, comforting and directing the dogs among the dogs.
Under the leadership of the soldiers, Zhang Weiyang was brought to Protector Bo Shi.
"Zhang Weiyang, a fine citizen, pays homage to Captain Bo!" Zhang Weiyang naturally recognized Bo Shi, and he had also heard from his brother. This Captain Bo has a great background. It is said that he is from the mother clan of the current Empress Dowager Bo of the East Palace, and is a serious official.
He was a relative of the emperor, so Zhang Weiyang was a little nervous.
Bo Shi looked at Zhang Weiyang, nodded, and said kindly: "Zhang Erlang is here!"
There was no airs in his tone, as if he was greeting an old friend.
This surprised Zhang Weiyang.
When he was in Handan in the past, had he ever seen such a big man be so friendly with him?
Even if he is Li Zheng in the village, he doesn't need to take a serious look at him.
It wasn't until his brother wrote a letter that Nazheng enthusiastically came to tell him the news.
"I have no choice but to transfer Erlang to be a guide this time..." Bo Shi didn't mind the status gap between himself and Zhang Weiyang at all, and said in very sincere words: "It's just that I can't help it, Erlang
He is one of the few people who has been to the northern wasteland and is still literate. It just so happened that during this mission, His Majesty had an order to record the geographical mountains and rivers along the way, so I had no choice but to trouble Erlang to make a trip!"
Perhaps because he was afraid that Zhang Weiyang would not understand the importance of this matter, Bo Shi then explained: "Erlang should also know that since the Qin Dynasty, China has lost the Yinshan Mountains and even the Loop. From now on, it can only stick to the Great Wall. How many brothers and sisters are there?"
, so he died in battle at the foot of the Great Wall. Every time I think about it, I always feel sad! I remember that at the beginning, our Chinese soldiers advanced to the Yinshan Mountains and drove all the barbarians to the south of the curtain, so that they did not dare to go south to herd horses. As a result, China enjoyed peace. Fortunately, Your Majesty
We are working hard to govern and refresh our politics. We want to avenge our past humiliation, return to our homeland, and enjoy the water. In the past, it was one of the famous rivers in the world in "Lu's Spring and Autumn" written by the Qin people. During this trip, if Erlang and the envoys can lead
Returning to the local geographical map, then in the future, when our army marches out of the Great Wall and restores the old fortresses of Qin, Zhao, Yan and Han, these maps and maps will play an important role. Thousands of comrades may be able to survive and return home with them.
The wife and children are reunited, so Erlang and others have a heavy responsibility on this trip!"
As Bo Shi spoke, his emotions became excited.
Although he has said similar words several times today.
But every time, he would be extremely excited.
In fact, Bo Shi himself is a great Chineseist.
Moreover, what he said is indeed a regret that China has long regretted!
During the Warring States Period, the Qin, Zhao, and Yan kingdoms competed in China to unify the world.
But externally, the goals are the same.
Under the command of Li Mu, the Zhao ** team broke through the Great Wall and pushed China's outposts to the Yinshan Mountains.
The Yan State marched northeastward and expanded thousands of miles of territory.
Qin destroyed Youqu and made the previous generation the land of China.
When Qin Shi Huang unified the world and connected the Qin, Zhao and Yan Great Walls, the Great Wall built by Qin Shi Huang was not a defensive fortification.
When Qin Shihuang was alive, no barbarians dared to take a step closer to the foot of the Great Wall. In the entire Munan region, there were no even nomadic people on horseback.
Because the Qin army built the fortress all the way to Yinshan Mountain.
At that time, the Jiuyuan County established by the Qin Dynasty was north of Yinshan Mountain.
Therefore, during the Warring States Period, the Great Wall was not the first line of defense. It was more of an advance base, shouldering the important task of transferring troops and grain and grass to the grasslands.
From the Warring States Period to the Qin Dynasty, the real front line was in the Yinshan Mountains.
Why Yinshan?
The answer is very simple. The Yinshan Mountains are rich in vegetation and are the most important source of raw materials for bows and arrows for the Yidi people on the grassland. With the Yinshan Mountains under control, it was difficult for them to even make arrows. Without arrows, the Huns would have no source of weapons.
It's impossible for them to ride horses, rush in front of the Han army, and fight with their teeth and fists, right?
For a noble who claimed to be the supreme king of China, Bo Shi dreamed of restoring the outpost borders of Qin and Zhao during the Warring States Period, and burning the flames of war directly into the hinterland of the Huns.
Now, he is just a Protector and Commander of the Xinhua Order, thousands of miles away from Yinshan Mountain.
He also doesn’t have the ability to plan to restore the old land of Yinshan.
However, since the old land of Yinshan cannot be restored, then it is possible to restore the heyday of the Yan Kingdom and build the outpost in the Raoleshui area, right?
Therefore, after receiving the emperor's order, Bo Shi immediately couldn't wait to explore the scenery of his hometown, one of the six famous rivers in the world, recorded as Rao Leshui in "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals".
Zhang Weiyang listened to Bo Shi's impassioned words and was deeply moved by them.
Although Zhang Weiyang is just a small pawn, before last year, he didn't even care about world affairs or the safety of the country. He just wanted to live his own life and be able to eat every meal.
But now, things are different. He has gone to school and started a family. His thoughts and stance have naturally changed.
In addition, under the leadership of Bo Shi, the Huyi Army carried out brainwashing work from top to bottom, and did not miss any blind spots.
Nowadays, even the children in the villages belonging to the Huyi army know that "Jiujiu warriors, ministers of the country" die for the emperor and the country, and it is even more glorious. They can also become ghosts and gods and enjoy incense sacrifices.
"I am honored to be the captain of the Imperial Guard, but Weiyang dares to die without serving!" Zhang Weiyang immediately bowed and said, "I have betrayed the emperor's orders, and I will repay you later!"
"Good!" Bo Shi laughed immediately.
In the past year of Xinhua, Bo Shi's biggest gain and change is that he has learned how to encourage others and how to make soldiers and common people fight for their beliefs.
But I want soldiers and common people to fight for their own ideals.
The best way is to learn from the predecessor Wu Zi and the contemporary Wei Shang, the governor of Yunzhong County.
When Wu Zi sucked the pus from his soldiers, his mother lamented: My son is dead.
Wei Shang mingled with the soldiers in the clouds, so he used an isolated city to stand at the forefront of the Han-Hungarian conflict, letting the Huns look at the city with excitement and sigh. Over the past twenty or thirty years, countless corpses were buried. (To be continued.)
ps: Sorry, I originally said it would cost 10,000 words, but it turned out to be disappointing~
I'll make up for the rest tomorrow~ My cervical spine is so uncomfortable, I have to buy painkillers tomorrow~
