Chapter Three Hundred and Forty-Three: Misfortune is coming
The Jiejiao tribe, to be precise, cannot be regarded as a tribe, but rather an alliance between several Jiejiao tribes.;
If broken down, it includes Gray Horn, Black Horn, Brown Horn and many other tribes that also use the long horns of the ibex as their tribal totem.
The real royal court of the Jie people, Wuxu was once the most powerful tribe among the Jie people.
The Wei State had dealt with the Wuxu tribe, and it once hoped to drive these nomadic groups from the north out of this land and regain the Sanchuan land where the Wei Ji Zhao family first founded the country. Unfortunately, after the Wei Han Shangdang battle was defeated,
, Wei State was in a state of collapse and was unable to regain the land of Sanchuan from Yinrong.
Therefore, in order to maintain stability in the west, the previous king of Wei, Zhao Hongrun's grandfather, had someone inscribe the three characters "Wuxu King" on a piece of bronze and presented it to the royal court of the Jie people. He acquiesced in the agreement between Xiang and Jie.
Wang and other Yinrong lived in the land of Sanchuan, and also acquiesced to the rule of the Wuxu Royal Court of the Jie tribe over the land of Sanchuan.
At that time, the king of the Wuxu tribe accepted gifts from the Wei State and maintained a neighborly relationship with the Wei State.
But now, decades later, the influence of the Wuxu tribe, where Wang Ting of the Jie tribe is located, is much less than it used to be.
To make matters worse, as time went by and with the passing of the old King Wusu, the arrogant Jie people gradually became dissatisfied with the great Jie people's acceptance of the canonization of Wei.
It’s no wonder, after all, the cultures of the Jie and Yi tribes are of the same origin. They believe that they are the sons of gods living in Tianyuan (actually a high-altitude plateau). Why should they accept the promises of low-plain people like the Wei people?
The title given?
Therefore, on the one hand, the Jie people decided to give up King Wu Xu, the canonization of the Wei State, and on the other hand, they harassed the borders of the Wei State.
At that time, the Wei State was not only facing the threat from South Korea in the north, but also had a powerful enemy in the south, namely Mi Jiang, Mi Rui's biological father, the cousin of Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, and Xiong Hao, Lord of Runan.
At that time, Xiong Hao, the king of Runan, was in charge of a large area of western Chu for Xiong Xu, the king of Chu. He made some changes in Chuxi: he ordered the Xiong nobles in western Chu to reduce the taxes on their fiefdoms and use the money to
Prepare to build an army and train new troops in Runan.
This was once regarded as a serious problem for Wei State.
Fortunately, the outstanding nobleman of the Chu State, Xiong Hao, Lord of Runan, did not finally conquer the Wei State as expected and enabled the Chu State to achieve great hegemony. He fell to the nobles of the Xiong clan in the east of Chu on the way.
Under pressure, he died in his own hands.
During the period when the Wei State was under dual threat from South Korea and Runan Jun Xiong Hao, the Wei State chose to tolerate and compromise against the harassment, or testing, of the Jie people in the west.
This made the Jie people even more unscrupulous. They believed that the Wei people were nothing more than this. Even today, although the Yi people still maintain good relations with the Wei people, the Jie people generally look down on the weak Wei people. They regarded their then Wang Tingwu as
The Xu tribe accepted the canonization of the Wei State as a humiliation imposed on the great Jie tribe by the despicable and weak Wei people.
From then on, the Wei State no longer had any prestige in the eyes of the Jie people.
But it is undeniable that the Chenggao Guan Army, one of the six garrison battalions, has actually made the Jie people understand many times that Wei is still their powerful neighbor. But unfortunately, Wei, this powerful neighbor, has
After the Shangdang suffered a disastrous defeat and was unable to recover, it was not so powerful that it frightened the Jie people, and they calmly accepted King Wusu's canonization as before.
This is the current general mentality of the Jie people towards the Wei State: they know the strength of the Wei Army, especially the Chenggao Army, and are also wary of the Wei Army's attempt to regain the land of Sanchuan. But at the same time, they are not afraid of the Wei Army.
The army believed that the great Jie people could defeat the Wei army with their strength and maintain their rule over the land of Sanchuan.
Unless Wei shows its military strength and severely defeats the Jie tribe's army, the arrogant Jie tribe will not regain respect for Wei again.
But the trouble is that the land of Sanchuan is not only inhabited by the Jie people, but also the Yi people and the Yi people. If the Wei State really goes to war against the Jie people, I believe that a large number of the Yi people and the Yi people will mistakenly think that they are Wei people.
The state attempted to take away the land they relied on for survival, so that they sided with the Jie people and became enemies of the Wei state.
This is exactly the reason why Emperor Wei wanted to "borrow the road": he did not want to arouse the fragile nerves of the three tribes of Hei, Jie, and Yi, and force them to go to war with Wei for the land they depended on for survival.
It's a pity that the arrogant and arrogant Jie tribe obviously couldn't understand Emperor Wei's good intentions and rejected Emperor Wei's offer of goodwill. The only Jiejiao tribe that came to participate in the gathering, looking at them like this, probably
They are just here to provoke the Wei people, and there is no possibility of negotiation.
No, Yongwang Hongyu was on his way to hunt with Zhao Hongrun, and told the latter about the campfire dinner last night that had a strong smell of gunpowder.
"...You don't know how arrogant that guy was last night. He was so angry that Master Du You, the Minister of Rites, turned pale." At this point, Yong Wang Hongyu added in a low voice: "My father's face didn't look good yesterday either."
"Seriously?" Zhao Hongrun was a little surprised and asked in confusion: "Aren't there five hundred tiger guards?"
Yongwang Hongyu glanced at Zhao Hongrun angrily, and said with a wry smile: "So what? There are two to three thousand Yinrong here. In front of the envoys of the Yi and Yi tribes, can the father really give the order?
What kind of Bitatu did the Huben Guards kill?"
"That's true." Zhao Hongrun nodded clearly.
It’s no wonder, after all, Wei State took the initiative to invite the Yinrong tribe to this joint hunt. If Wei State attacked the people of that tribe during the joint hunt, then who would dare to respond to Wei State’s invitation in the future?
What's more, although the relationship between the Yi tribe and the Yi tribe is pretty good with the Wei Dynasty, this relationship is not as good as their relationship with the Jie tribe. After all, the three of them live together in the land of Sanchuan.
In a sense, their interests are closer to each other.
One is a neighbor with whom we had a fairly good relationship in the past, and the other is our brother. Who do you think the Sheang people will favor between them?
"You are still smart. You ran away with Uncle Liu Wang last night. You don't know how angry your brother was at that meal last night." Yong Wang Hongyu said melancholy and emotionally.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun was slightly amused.
Indeed, last night, because of his deep friendship with the Qingyang tribe of the Qingyang tribe, his uncle Zhao Yuanli, the sixth king, received a warm reception from the Qingyang tribe. In addition to having a delicious meal, if Zhao Hongrun had not been too entangled in his heart, he could even
Making love with a beautiful and passionate Sheng girl, no, making love on a sheepskin rug.
How comfortable is this?
And according to what the second brother next to me said, other Wei people, including their father who had concealed his identity, did not have this special treatment. Even when they were eating, they had to listen to the competition of the Jiejiao tribe.
Tatu was provoking, taunting and taunting, as if he was deliberately trying to stir up trouble and completely ruin the gathering.
After laughing a few times, Zhao Hongrun seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Did Father say anything afterward?"
Yongwang Hongyu shook his head and said in a low voice: "Brother Yiwei, it seems that my father still hopes to be recognized by Yinrong. But Lord Du You was so angry that he kept saying that he wanted to mobilize an army to give this man Help the arrogant bastard look good."
Minister of Rites...
In Zhao Hongrun's mind, he imagined the scene where Du You, the Minister of Rites, was so angry that he was dancing and talking indiscriminately, which he thought was a bit good-looking.
Although this minister looks polite and polite on weekdays, in Zhao Hongrun's opinion, this master in charge of etiquette is more bloody than Li Huan, minister of the Ministry of War. I remember when Xiong Tuo, the king of Yangcheng, led his army to invade. During the Wei Dynasty, this gentleman supported ending the war with war.
"Which army did Master Du You say he would mobilize?" Zhao Hongrun asked curiously.
"Dangshan Army!" A strange look appeared on Yong Wang Hongyu's face.
Zhao Hongrun couldn't help being happy when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It seems that Lord Du You was really popular with those Jie tribe yesterday."
"That's right." Yong Wang Hongyu shrugged cooperatively.
It's no wonder that the two of them have such strange expressions. After all, the general of Dangshan Camp, Sima An, is extremely repulsive to foreigners, and it's not unknown to people in the court.
It can be predicted that if General Sima An really leads the Dangshan Battalion to the Land of Sanchuan, then all non-Wei races in the Land of Sanchuan will inevitably face a bloody war and even massacre.
Once Yin Rong is defeated, Zhao Hongrun has no doubt that the general will kill all the people of the Yi, Jie, and Yi tribes here. Even, in order to eradicate future troubles, he may even kill all the boys who are not taller than the wheel, leaving only women and baby girl.
Note: In most cases, when the army massacres civilians of the enemy in order to completely annihilate a certain race, it will only kill men who are taller than the wheel of a cart, leaving little room for young and ignorant boys, and rarely There are cases where all males of a hostile race, regardless of age or age, are killed. The ancients believed that this was against the "human ethics" of killing the whole clan. Therefore, even the enemy would usually leave a few traces of blood to this race. As a means of reproduction, it will not be completely destroyed.
But thinking about it carefully, Zhao Hongrun suddenly felt that if the Wei State really used troops against Yin Rong, then the army sent to Yin Rong would most likely be the Dangshan camp.
After all, in order to alleviate the unfavorable news about Xu Yin, the general of Fenxing Fortress, the defense change between the Junshui Army and Fenxing Fortress had already begun. The general of the Junshui Army, Bai Liba, had led the Dredge Army to Fenxing Fortress to replace Fenxing. The army and the general Xu Yin.
In order to prevent South Korea from taking advantage of the situation, Nanyan's army could not move lightly at all.
Excluding the Suiyang army led by the former Song Dynasty surrendered general Nangong who violated the orders of the Ministry of War...
After thinking about it, the only one that can be mobilized at the moment, besides the Chenggao Army at Chenggao Pass, is the Dangshan Army.
Logically speaking, if the Wei State really used troops against Sanchuan, then the defense of Chenggao Pass would never be relaxed.
In other words, I am afraid that it is the Dangshan Army led by General Sima An that is going to attack Sanchuan.
I hope the Jie people don’t make the wrong choice, otherwise...
When he thought of the general, Zhao Hongrun could not help but feel worried for the Jie people. After all, the opponents the Jie people might face were like Yama to them.
