The Jiuli tribes took it for granted that the territory cleared by Bo Yi after killing the evil spirits was theirs because they were closest to it. This was a tacitly accepted fact. However, Hou Gang pointed out a very critical issue. Strictly speaking,
Speaking of which, Wu Hui's army did not invade the Jiuli land. That area was a wilderness without an owner, and snake cultivators had been inhabiting it since ancient times.
From a military point of view, Jiuli has already prepared a large army. It is impossible to wait until Wu Hui breaks through the pass before fighting. They have to buy time for the strategic arrangements of the villages in the rear. In their consciousness, the north of Yunmeng Juze is the place where Chongchen lies.
The land, south of Yunmeng Juze is the land of Jiuli, but such a problem has been ignored.
Everyone was stunned for a long time, but it was Rain Master Ji Meng who spoke first: "Wu Hui's army is pressing down on the border. Does Jiuli have to wait for him to break into the house before he rises up to defend himself against the enemy?"
Chonghua looked at Ji Meng and actually smiled, nodded and said: "Well said, the army is pressing on the territory, where is the territory? According to Chinese etiquette, the emperor is not allowed to raise troops to invade the territory of another army. If you want to make a clear decision, you must also ask
I would like to ask all the princes here, where are the borders of your territories?"
Hou Gang sighed and said: "Actually, this matter is not to blame, Lord Chonghua. The last time you consecrated the five princes to the angels, you didn't complete all the tasks! You appointed princes instead of dividing them into ministries.
Territory, that’s why there are difficult things to resolve today.”
The deputy envoy Hou Gang actually accused the envoy Chonghua on the spot for not getting things done last time, but Chonghua did not refute. He looked sad and hit his chest with his fist and said: "It's my fault! In this case, I'll ask you today."
Let the five uncles clear their territories."
The significance of tribal territory is not only to carve out a territory for oneself, but also to accept canonization and establish covenants with other tribes. It represents the interests and responsibilities recognized by the world and is subject to supervision and protection. Other tribes are not allowed to invade and invade at will. But the important thing is
When Hua consecrated the five uncles of Jiuli last year, he did not make clear distinctions.
In fact, this is not to be blamed on Chonghua, even the five great shamans of Jiuli rejected it. At that time, the evil spirits had just been wiped out, and there was a large area of unclaimed land to be reclaimed, and many villages in the five major parts of Jiuli were staggered and demarcated.
So I let it go for the time being. Earlier, Danzhu had mentioned this matter, but the great shamans of the Jiuli tribe did not take up the matter at all.
The reason why they did not continue fighting at that time was very subtle and complicated. It is unclear. It may be that deep down in their hearts, they were always vaguely hostile to other tribes except Jiuli.
In the process of continuous re-editing and evolution, the witch histories passed down orally from past dynasties also intentionally or unintentionally instilled a sense of hostility in the people of various tribes in Jiuli. Under the guidance of the witch god, they wanted to summon Chi You's soul and conquer the world. They moved to
Southern Wilderness, they think that the land of Southern Wilderness is theirs, and even the land of Chongchen and Gonggong will also be theirs in the future. At present, it is just a temporary settlement.
But this is distorted from both a historical and a realistic perspective. It is just a matter of not accepting the teachings of the Human Emperor. They even refuse to coexist in peace, which has laid the foundation for disaster for themselves and the rest of the world.
That's why Chonghua lamented last night. Fortunately, "Gu God", Fei Lichi, Gu Lizhong and others are no longer here, and after this battle, almost all the die-hard elements in Jiuli's tribe who strongly adhere to the above views are gone.
After being defeated, all the Jiuli tribes were unable to fight anymore, and they only wanted to improve their situation as much as possible while protecting themselves. Therefore, there were many things that they had the opportunity to implement now.
Hou Gang waved his hand, and the map hanging in the air fell down again and was spread out in front of everyone. He said unhurriedly: "The mission that Master Chonghua should have completed last year will be completed today. The five uncles are all
There were also Chinese angels present at the scene to arbitrate, and everyone witnessed it. The territories of each ministry were clearly divided. I hope that there will be no more disputes like today in the future."
Di Jiang couldn't help but shouted: "Are we here to judge the war between the two tribes today, or are we here to divide the territories between the tribes? This matter can be discussed later. Wu Hui's crime should be discussed first!"
Chonghua said expressionlessly: "The past is a teacher, and the future is a resource. If there is a conflict in the future, it is better to distinguish right from wrong. The five princes have already been canonized by the emperor. All tribes in the world are not allowed to infringe on their tribal territories. First, they must be clear
Where is its territory? This is also to protect the people to live and live in peace. How can it not be decided today?"
Huwa looked at Chonghua and Hou Gang and sighed inwardly. The two people should have discussed it long ago on the way here. They sang and harmonized at the judgment scene and suddenly led the matter to the division of tribal territory. Moreover, Chonghua and Fei Liwang last night
Huwa already knew the content of the secret conversation, and Zi Anzai came completely prepared, but it made Di Jiang feel that it was an extraneous incident.
The five great wizards looked at each other, and finally Fei Liwang was the first to speak: "After the war, the people are weak and in urgent need of recuperation. I have to make it clear to all the ministries in the world which areas are not allowed to be invaded. This is to protect the environment and the people. In this case, I
First mark out the land of Feili. If there is anything wrong, discuss it with the four uncles and ask the angels to make a decision."
Fei Liwang's sudden appearance made the other four great witch guilds unable to sit still. Since Chonghua brought up this matter on the spot, he expected the reaction of these great witch guilds.
What Fei Liwang said just now is right. Jiuli has just suffered a heavy blow. If it is invaded by foreign enemies again, they can only hide in the depths of the southern wilderness and stand firm, unable to launch a counterattack. They are people who can be threatened at any time. Please invite the Chinese
Angels judge, we must try our best to get the protection of various covenants and the emperor of China.
But the premise of all this is to clearly divide the scope of responsibilities and interests. Which places are yours and others are not allowed to invade? The war has passed, and the results are difficult to change. What needs to be considered now is future survival and development.
Fei Liwang has already taken the lead in demarcating the territory, and Fei Li's unknown area is in the center of the major departments of Jiu Li. If he draws an extra piece outward, the other tribes will lose a piece. How can we not discuss it clearly? As long as the other four
The Great Witch Lord discussed with Fei Liwang, which meant that he himself also started to draw up his own territory.
At this time, everyone's greatest immediate interests are at stake. Until we figure it out, other things have to be put aside temporarily. Even if Di Jiang is dissatisfied, he cannot stop it.
The five major tribes of Jiuli were originally just a concept of the inheritance of ethnic groups as a whole, but from this moment on, there are also clear concepts of region and rights and responsibilities. Not only can Chongchen or Gonggong not infringe on the land of Jiuli without reason, but also the five major tribes of Jiuli.
They will also be bound by the covenant.
Chonghua gave them five sharpened soft branches and drew them on the map with red paint. A dispute soon broke out among the five uncles.
Fei Liwang deliberately paddled a little farther out, but Shan Li Suan immediately stopped and pointed out that it should be the territory of the Shan Li tribe. Fei Li Wang persuaded with a smile, now that the evil spirits have been eliminated, there are still large areas deep in the mountains.
The land can be reclaimed, so there is no need to worry about these things.
Mu Lihu interjected and retorted, how could the wilderness that needs to be opened be compared to the area that has been settled and cultivated for two hundred years? In the past, the land occupied by the evil spirits was easy to negotiate. Whoever cultivated it first would be his, but the existing area must be strictly controlled first.
Distinguish clearly.
Chonghua just looked at it with a smile, waved his hand and intervened when everyone was arguing: "When you five uncles set aside tribal territories, don't forget to set aside your own fiefdoms as well. The fiefdoms were supposed to be given by the emperor, but
Jiuli's situation is special. As long as you carve it out within the tribal territory and the tribesmen don't object, I will report it to the Emperor of Heaven for approval."
Well, now the five uncles are busy again. First, they will mark out their own fiefdoms in the tribal territories, and then negotiate the territorial boundaries of each tribe. There are many villages in each tribe that are staggered. It can also be seen at this moment.
Thanks to the ingenuity of the great witch masters, they actually came up with a solution on the spot based on the map, exchanging and relocating villages, so that the territories of each tribe were connected into one piece.
Fortunately, the Southern Wasteland is a vast area, and the villages are spread out widely. Many places in the middle are not inhabited at all. It is not difficult to draw a boundary. The existing village areas in the five major parts of Jiuli were completed in almost half an hour.
.The next thing that is a bit difficult to deal with is the large tracts of unclaimed land suitable for reclamation. Since no one has occupied it, how should it be demarcated?
Seeing them fighting there for a long time, Lu Zhong sneered and said: "Since it is an ownerless land, you want to add it to your own land and prohibit others from cultivating and moving there. What's the point? If this is okay, then I, Chongchen Department,
Just divide the vast southern wasteland into the territory, and there will be no case of Jiuli moving south. Your arrival will be equivalent to an invasion!"
Chonghua spoke at the right moment and said: "When Zhuanxu was the emperor, he had a policy of reclaiming wasteland. The ownerless wilderness in the four wild areas of China was very vast. Emperor Zhuanxu encouraged the tribes to live and multiply, recruit more people, and reclaim the borderlands. There were no people outside the territory of each tribe.
The main wilderness can be cultivated by neighboring people, and then reported to the emperor, and then sealed into the territory."
Chonghua first decided based on etiquette and law. As for the unclaimed land suitable for human habitation, the Chinese emperor also encouraged tribes to open up wasteland, but it must be reclaimed before it can be included in the tribal territory recognized and protected by the covenant. In principle, whoever reclaims it will own it.
If it is an untouched land and a tribe wants to add it to its own territory without cultivating it, this is also an unacceptable behavior. Because the tribal territory means that it is protected by the covenant, other neighboring tribes will
No more attacks are allowed.
For the five major tribes of Jiuli, a certain tribe allocates an unowned land to itself. It seems that it has not invaded other people's territory, but the other four major tribes cannot agree, which means that they will not be able to set foot in the future.
Therefore, Chonghua reminds everyone not to go too far, and to keep an eye on each other, and not let each other arbitrarily delimit the land. The land without an owner means that there is no owner. Opportunities are shared by all ministries. Whoever organizes manpower to cultivate and open up the wasteland first will be the winner.
of.
In fact, in ancient times, there were many unoccupied wildernesses, and the more precious resource was the relatively insufficient population. Even within the existing territories of each tribe, there were still large areas of wilderness and forest. Some places were not suitable for reclamation at all.
It is even impossible for ordinary people to get involved.
The truly valuable places are those fertile fields that have been developed for thousands of years. They have condensed the fruits of labor and wisdom of past generations, built water conservancy, drainage and irrigation facilities and transportation roads, and built governance centers that can be used in
A city wall that can withstand all kinds of natural disasters to a large extent is a truly meaningful tribal territory.
The Emperor of China encourages all tribes to open up wasteland, but the boundaries of the territories protected by each tribe in the covenant must be clear. Under this premise, the five great shamans certainly want to take advantage of as much as possible. The territory they finally carved out must be
It is protected by the etiquette and laws of the country and must be arbitrarily judged by Chonghua.
Whoever Chonghua allowed to draw more lines was giving face, so the five uncles of Jiuli all asked for help from Chonghua. Chonghua took this map back, and the protected tribal territory was only tentative, and would eventually be determined by
The Emperor of China gave the order for approval. As for how the Emperor of China approved it, it was up to Master Chonghua to explain it to him! To be continued
