Chapter 102: Title

Part of this loss is either lost among the vegetation that is difficult to find, or is damaged and cannot be used...but this part can be taken away and re-smelted.

However, most of the lost items may have been taken away by those satisfied people!

Neither Zheng Xiaoming nor Qing Lang, the commander-in-chief of Zheng's army, cared too much about this.

King Xuan was very supportive of Wang Ziming's entry into the country this time. As long as Zheng Xiaoming could gain a firm foothold between Jiang and Han, he could stop the Chu people from going north.

Therefore, King Xuan fully supported Zheng Xiaoming's visit to the country this time. Although it is difficult to project military power, there will be a steady stream of material support.

"Uncle Zheng, after dawn, do you want to find out which barbarian tribe is attacking us? Destroy them tomorrow?"

Qing Lang asked murderously.

Zheng Xiaoming was a little moved, but he still shook his head and refused: "The most important thing for us now is to rush to Fengguo, build the city before the Chu people react, and prepare to hold on! These barbarians are not enough to delay our time!

"

When Qing Lang heard this, he thought about the same truth. After all, the overall situation was the most important thing. Although he was a little unwilling for a while, he said no more and went to appease and reward the soldiers.

Zheng Xiaoming smiled at Taishi Boyang and said, "Thank you so much, Taishi, for waking up our people from their dreams, otherwise we would have suffered heavy losses!"

These barbarians have nothing to fear in the real world, but the demonic form in the dream is very powerful, enough to kill a large number of his soldiers.

Taishi Boyang laughed when he heard this and said: "What are you talking about, Your Majesty? I won't take any action. For a nobleman like Your Majesty, he can naturally obtain the power of Haotian and defeat these barbarians. It's just a matter of course!"

Zheng Xiaoming smiled when he heard this. Since the Zhou Dynasty and the Shang Dynasty, the ancient gods have fallen one after another. Their power has returned to heaven and earth.

There is no longer the Emperor of Heaven, that is, the existence of God. Only Haotian, that is, the heaven of vitality, is an impersonal existence and is the origin of the world.

The successive kings of Zhou claimed to be the Emperor of Zhou and established a close connection with Haotian, from whom they were able to borrow mysterious and unpredictable power.

Although this kind of power cannot be used directly to kill enemies due to the rules of the world, it can be added to various bronze weapons and bronze ritual vessels to form a powerful force. It is enough to kill any enemy or ghost in the dream!

As a member of the Zhou royal family, Zheng Xiaoming also has the authority to borrow power from Haotian. Even because of Zheng Xiaoming's origin, his authority is no less than that of the Zhou Emperor, and is even more powerful.

However, Zheng Xiaoming has never exposed his true strength!

The night passed quickly. On the second day, the Zheng troops packed up the camp and continued their journey.

There were more than 3,000 people in their group, most of them were soldiers and strong men, but only a few hundred were women and children.

Other women and children will wait until they have settled in the country and established themselves before being accepted into the feudal country.

Because there were so many people and horses, and the surrounding was wild wilderness, walking was very slow.

However, after walking for two days, we should reach Deng State. After we can receive a number of cities from Deng State, we can establish a country.

The Deng State was founded by merchants. King Wuding of Shang granted his uncle and son Man the title of Deng. The Deng State was established. After that, the Deng people moved several times, and finally moved all the way south, establishing the capital at its current location.

This time Zheng Xiaoming granted Jianghan a kingdom and chose a nearby location. Therefore, after hearing this, the kings of Deng and Lu, in order to please him, Prince Ming, took the initiative to contribute ten cities to the founding of Zheng.

Place.

Zheng Xiaoming would not have to work hard empty-handed and slowly build the city on his own.

Of course, as a member of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, it would not be unavoidable to give someone else's city a free gift, including a large number of bronzes.

Two days later, Zheng Xiaoming arrived at the capital of Deng State and met Deng Zifang, the leader of Deng State.

Deng Zifang's son had the title of Viscount.

Just like Zheng Xiaoming's "Bo" in Zheng Boming, it is the title of the noble leader of the Zhou people. In fact, Zheng Xiaoming's title should be baron.

In ancient times, titles were not arranged according to the rank of princes, princes and sons.

Those are all made up by later generations of Confucian scholars who no longer understand the situation of ancient books.

In fact, according to the documents unearthed by later archaeologists, these titles should be determined according to the fifth or ninth service.

Of course, these five servers are not the same thing as the five servers of later generations.

It is a sense of service and obligation.

In other words, different levels correspond to the close and close blood relationship with the Emperor of Zhou.

According to the rules of Zhou Rites, the closer the blood relationship with the Emperor of Zhou is, the higher the status and the closer the relationship. This is the principle of Zhou Rites.

The closer the blood relationship is with the Emperor Zhou, the closer the enfeoffment place is to Zongzhou and Chengzhou. It is called internal service, Jifu, etc.

Only those nobles around the capital who are closest to the emperor of Zhou can be called dukes or uncles.

Gong is an honorific title for people who are older, have a higher status, or serve as the third Duke of the Zhou Dynasty.

And Bo is the title of those high-ranking nobles who are of the same generation as the King of Zhou!

In fact, Zheng Xiaoming, the title of Uncle Zheng, actually belongs to a male. Historical records directly record that the original Zheng Boyou was Bo Nan.

And the man is the real title!

It is roughly equivalent to the fact that every son of an official can be called a son or yamen, which is an honorific title. When the son becomes a bureau chief, the bureau chief will be his position.

Viscount was a title for nobles in the Shang Dynasty, and only those who were close to the King of Shang were qualified to be called Zi.

Of course, there was an emperor and courtiers, and it was already the Zhou Dynasty. So it was completely normal for Deng Zifang to please Zheng Xiaoming, Zheng Boming!

However, this Deng Zi is not a title of the king of Deng State. Like Zheng Xiaoming's Uncle Zheng, it does not belong to a title, but to status, honorific title, etc.

Only the titles of Marquis, Dian and Men belong to the title.

But no matter what, Zheng Xiaoming, as the top nobleman of the Zhou Dynasty, the youngest son of King Li and the youngest brother of King Xuan, had an extremely high status in the Zhou Dynasty where respect for relatives was important.

Deng Zifang took the ministers and officials out of the city for dozens of miles to greet him, and after receiving the wind and dust in the city, he took out the map and expressed how many cities he would give to Zheng Xiaoming.

Five cities, including Yindi and Zhuyang, including Fu County where Zheng Xiaoming was born in the previous historical time and space, will be placed under Zheng Xiaoming's Zheng Kingdom.

As for the other five cities, Lu State will be placed under Zheng Xiaoming's jurisdiction.

Although the Lu State was also a country that paid tribute to the Emperor of Zhou, it was still a Rongdi state. During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the King of Shang captured its monarch and cut off his head to offer sacrifices to heaven.

(Later generations unearthed oracle bone hexagrams carved on the skull of the king of Lu.)

Therefore, the status of the Nalu Kingdom is even lower, and most of its land is in the mountains. The so-called cities assigned to Zheng Xiaoming are not as good as a few small villages.
