Chapter 1313: The power of mouth cannons, victory and defeat
What the real history is like, Liu Shiba has no way of judging.
However, he has a basic way to distinguish: if there are big differences in the descriptions of official history and unofficial history, and there are different opinions, then the unofficial history will be more credible.
Because the people who wrote the official history wrote it according to the instructions of the victors.
That's right, it's "compiled" rather than "recorded", so the actual meaning is adulterated.
As for unofficial histories, most of them are circulated in the countryside. Although there are suspicions that three people became tigers, it is possible to restore the truth after removing the skin and bones of flying to the sky. This is the difference.
As a certain Manchu emperor said, the law can block the anus of a living person and prevent him from pooping or peeing. Do you still have the ability to block the mouths of all the people in the world?
"It's so interesting! No matter which dynasty you put it in, there are really only one person who can enter the court by spreading rumors..."
However, there have been exceptions in history!
For example, between Xu Fu and Qin Shihuang, there are surprising similarities or consistency between the official history of the Qin Dynasty and the descriptions of Jianghu unofficial history...
"That's weird! According to unofficial records, Xu Fu even slept in Xianyang Palace at night with the First Emperor Ying Zheng..."
"It can't be Beibei Mountain, right?"
"Or do you have special hobbies? **, MC or something?"
Confused by all kinds of brain-burning thoughts, Liu Shiba changed his posture instantly according to his will. He changed from lying down to sitting upright, then from sitting upright to standing, and finally from standing to walking slowly in circles...
Liu Shiba put his right hand on his chin and rubbed it gently, but his eyes were fixed on a cherry blossom tree in the courtyard...
But his thoughts seemed to cross the timeline again...
Liu Shiba was thinking wildly - as if he had seen the prosperous world of two thousand years.
An era of Chinese legends where heroes emerge in large numbers!
Seven kingdoms compete for hegemony and compete for the world!
………………
Living in the midst of the Seven Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony, there was a legendary man named Xu Fu. His abilities were all about refining elixirs, touching bones, looking at skins, and taking good luck to avoid misfortune. He was a typical trickster.
But, what opportunity did he encounter and how did he get into the house?
Finally, entering the core of power of the Qin Empire?
You must know that the Qin Dynasty had very strict control over the army. Generally, a captain of ten thousand men did not have the right to easily mobilize an army of more than a hundred people.
As for Xu Fulie, this guy led sea and land migration teams several times to and from China and the Sea of Japan. The largest number of people even reached 100,000 people.
Among the 100,000 people, there is also an elite group of the Qin Dynasty numbering between 70,000, which is the direct descendant of Qin Shihuang: the Xianyang Imperial Guard stationed in Guanzhong.
Xu Fu created many impossible things in the Qin Dynasty——
First of all, this person broke the rule of law when King Zhao of Qin was in power, and followed the Qin policy formulated by Shang Yang: Only by military and agricultural achievements can one obtain a title, and scholars, princes, nobles, and peasants and merchants were no exception.
Xu Fu regarded the iron laws of the Qin Dynasty as child's play, and with the tacit approval of Qin Shihuang, he finally achieved the feat of his "master" in Qin, which is actually not terrible...
What’s scary is Xu Fu’s life trajectory!
Why did Qin Shihuang lead his Imperial Guards in Guanzhong to cross the Sea of Japan several times before and after his death two thousand years ago, and professed vassalage on the archipelago?
Under the wild island more than two thousand years ago, an underground world that has gone through thousands of years and is unknown to everyone was secretly built——
According to Liu Shiba’s understanding: It is suspected to be another tomb of the First Emperor?
………………
"Xu Fu, who are you?"
Looking up at the stars, Liu Shiba said to himself,
Warlock? Jianghu Qianju?
Could it be the origin of Shen Tiao Sect?
"It doesn't look alike!"
Liu Shiba finally denied his various brain-burning ideas, but positioned Xu Fu's identity on another impossible level...
For example, under the general trend of the world, there are many proud men of heaven: Benshi?
The era of China's Seven Kingdoms contending for hegemony!
In the Seven Kingdoms, there are many common people, scholars from hundreds of schools of thought, princes and ministers, and Confucian scholars who are rich in poetry and literature. In order to get the emperor's protection for their family, they will go to great lengths to show off their skills in order to be appreciated.
This ability is called the Emperor's Art!
Among them, there is one most famous person called: Gui Guzi!
The fugitive Takeda Shingen, who worshiped the Fenglin volcano Takeda military flag when he was alive, is what Sun Bin, the master of military art, said in the book of war, and Sun Bin studied under: Guiguzi!
The earliest struggle for supremacy among the Seven Kingdoms was based not on force, but on the power of words!
At that time, Qin, a small and impoverished vassal state, served as a source of discussion for the Confucian scholars and well-educated scholars to discuss after dinner.
Qin would be really poor, and its rise to dominance would be a joke within a joke.
The remaining six countries are located in the hinterland of the Central Plains, the Guandong Plain, the coastal line, and the prosperous south of the Yangtze River, so they have abundant people and strong national strength.
At that time, the mainstream group of people who advocated learning political and horizontal skills and betraying the emperor's family were Confucian scholars, and they also had a name called "distinguishing scholars!"
In layman's terms, what Biansi represents is the majority of scholars who are good at speaking, well-read poetry, and knowledgeable about ancient and modern times.
These pundits were weak in constitution and did not engage in farming, so paying lip service was the only profession they did not choose.
This advantage is exactly in line with the shortcomings that the emperors of the other six kingdoms love to boast about - what a great success!
The princes and kings are all very happy about their achievements, just because who doesn’t want to be famous throughout the ages and achieve an eternal legacy like the Yellow Emperor, Yao and Shun?
As a result, this group of scholars successfully lobbied the emperors of the Six Kingdoms and launched a melee among the Six Kingdoms in the early stages of the struggle for supremacy among the Six Kingdoms.
That's right! It's just the Six Kingdoms, not the Seven Kingdoms, because there is no Qin among the melee states.
Why?
Because most of the mainstream dignitaries in the Six Kingdoms looked down upon the barbaric and poor Qin who was so poor that only loess was left.
According to the current understanding, it is better to have fun alone than to have fun together. It is more lively when everyone ties gold flowers together.
During the period of tying the golden flower, the princes of the six countries have a large round table. If the king of any country does not look at the cards due to lack of food, the light will be turned on.
The Six Nations are also willing to play with it.
No matter how the kings of the Six Kingdoms play, they will never take the king of Qin to play with the Golden Flower!
If there is a missing corner in a gambling game, and an emperor temporarily withdraws from the table and defends the city instead of chips, it is obvious that there is a missing corner, right?
The six countries would rather draw five cards than ask Qin to join!
The State of Qin also gained rare purity!
However, the good times of the Qin State did not last long, and they were eventually involved in a war, the biggest gambling game in the world...
………………
The Golden Flower Game focuses on attack. The six countries are almost equal in national power, and they are equally strong and powerful.
Even if Han and Yan were slightly weaker, they were still able to hold on due to their marriage and geographical relationship.
During the Qin Dynasty, the king of Qin who was the king of the bright moon came to the world, and he would still be the king of Qin Zhao.
The ancient Guanzhong included most of China's present-day northern Shaanxi and western Sichuan.
Based on the barren Guanzhong Plain, the Qin State only encircled one country.
Relying on this meager family background, and then fighting for hegemony, sweeping the rest, and occupying the rich land of the six countries, how ridiculous is this...
But the thing that unraveled all these thoughts was the sentence Liu Shiba was thinking about just now:
"Seven hundred thousand prisoners will be sentenced to Tulishan Kuma."
Most of the 700,000 prisoners are war criminals after the defeat of various countries!
Those who commit crimes within the territory have long since been taken to the front line by the Qin Dynasty and become Smectas, and they are nowhere to be seen...
But, think about it deeper! This is a frightening number!
Historically, the Qin Army, as the victor, had the habit of not keeping prisoners of war on the battlefield, no matter how many - they were all killed!
Bai Qi, the God of Killing, killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers in one go...
What should I do if I don’t kill you? The number of soldiers you surrendered is twice as many as mine...
