Chapter 5623 Peng Wei rises up and makes his debut
Speaking of this, the ancestor paused and said in a deep voice: "At this time, he realized that Huaiyi has become more and more powerful in the past hundred years. Not only has he taken root in the original Huaiyi land, but he has even taken power.
Going further north and going deeper into Qingzhou. If the Shang Dynasty did not take action, the entire eastern Yi tribe would probably become a new enemy. The Peng Kingdom and Wei Kingdom were actually beaten away during the Wuding period.
Now.”
The black robe was a little surprised: "Was Peng and Wei countries a powerful country of the Shang Dynasty when the Shang Dynasty was founded? Just like Zhou countries, they tried their best to attack Huaiyi countries like Pi, which were unfaithful to the Shang Dynasty.
How could Wu Ding use it like this and then attack Fu Hao?”
The ancestor sneered: "Because what the Shang Dynasty wants is not to completely defeat or destroy a foreign barbarian who was unfaithful to him, but to make these areas where he could not directly govern and rule, kill each other, hate each other, and fail to form a joint force.
This was probably the plan of Fu's speech, because Peng and Wei were also loyal to the Xia Dynasty at the end of the Xia Dynasty. They were finally defeated by the Shang Dynasty and forced to move to Huai. They were the Sanmiao clan, not the original Dong
The Yi tribe would soon have conflicts and conflicts with the local tribes. Until Wu Ding ascended the throne, they also rebelled against the various tribes in the Huaiyi area, and fought against Shihe. In the Huaiyi area, only the Shang Dynasty's clan's clan was
The Yan Kingdom established in the past was a man of his own and trusted, while the Peng Kingdom and Wei Kingdom had never gained the true trust of the Shang Dynasty. Like the Zhou Kingdom, it was just a weapon to use the barbarians to control the barbarians."
"The Shang Dynasty has sent troops deep into the Huaihe River and Qingzhou many times, and has attacked local tribes many times. Not only did they fight Pi, but also Peng and Wei, but they did not cause a fatal blow.
After that, you have to withdraw, so you often have no effort. There is no substantial benefit except harvesting some sacrifices for people. If you fight, you will pay tributes such as people and copper ore, then stop and then in the Shang Dynasty, you will be in a civil strife or
When the army is inconvenient to dispatch, these princes will cut off their tribute and will not cede. If this happens, the Shang Dynasty will not be peaceful."
Dou Peng frowned: "Can the Yan Kingdom established by the Shang Dynasty royal family work? Why not support them in full expansion?"
The ancestor sighed and said, "Because they are not the local Huaiyi, they are unwilling to be like Peng and Wei, who follow the local customs and take the initiative to assimilate and integrate with the locals. They have always regarded themselves as businessmen and do not respect the local people.
People's culture and customs must be kept completely different from it everywhere, which is tantamount to isolating oneself, just like Chongguo. Although most of the tribesmen came from the Western Qiang and arrived in the Central Plains, after returning to Guanzhong, their kings had already been
The royal family of the Shang Dynasty took office, so he trusted Chongguo so much. However, after Chongguo arrived in Guanzhong, he only farmed in the eastern part of Guanzhong according to the customs of merchants, and was incompatible with the nomadic customs such as the Western Qiang and Quanrong, and also made them unable to do so.
They became local aliens. If this alien cannot change the customs and culture of the locals and become like themselves, it will be rejected and cannot expand."
Black Rou sighed: "It seems that it is still a favorable situation for the Zhou people. During the Xia Dynasty, we ran to Rongdi in the Western Qiang. In order to get along with Rongdi, we can transform into nomadic things and lose nearly a thousand years of farming skills, and we can rely on them later.
During the protection of the Shang Dynasty, he went to Zhouyuan to learn to farm again. He relied on the superiority of farming to become a higher-ranking existence among the local Qiang people. Because of the foundation laid before, he was regarded as a kind of person by the Western Qiang people, and his own people.
I am willing to join, so that both sides can eat well and play well. On the contrary, the Shang Dynasty's own vassal state deliberately emphasized the identity of a merchant, and showed his superiority above the barbarians everywhere, which was offensive.
The hunters made too many enemies. The Shang Dynasty, whether it was Yan or Chong, had never been able to become the great prince of the Shang Dynasty who could truly stand alone and guard the other side."
Dou Peng curled his lips: "Although the Zhou Dynasty in later generations was also a feudal division, it was much stronger than the Shang Dynasty in this regard. Zhu Ji's vassal states made great efforts in the expansion of the Zhou Dynasty, although in the end it was also
They killed each other, but no matter how hard they fought, the whole world was still named Ji. This is how they learned the lessons of the Shang Dynasty.”
The ancestor sneered: "Actually, it's not much different. Although the Zhou Dynasty used more princes of the same surname than the Shang Dynasty and seemed to be more powerful, in essence, there was no change. In the end, the world's great powers were Qin, Chu, and Zhao.
The statement from these two great countries with different surnames is better because the royal family members have a strong sense of superiority, and are not as strong as those from the bottom and middle classes, and are willing to work hard. No matter when they are born in distress and die in peace.
, always out of date. In my opinion, the fundamental reason why Yan and Chong cannot arise is that they don’t have to worry about survival issues!”
"In any case, when the country is destroyed, the Shang Dynasty army will come to save them, so there will be no strong enterprising spirit and motivation. The Peng Kingdom and Wei Kingdom have been expelling people from all over the world for thousands of years.
, no place to live, have a strong sense of crisis, and whenever you have the opportunity, you think about annexing or recruiting other tribes, Fangguo, strengthening your own strength, and when you are strong enough, you can confront the Shang Dynasty head-on, which is equivalent to
When the Shang Dynasty destroyed Xia, they wanted to re-take the old path, but they were too anxious and did not have a person like the Zhou State who had Ji Li, so they ended up being deceived by the Shang Dynasty.”
Heibo laughed: "So, Fu Hao may be Peng State or Wei State? They believed the promise of Shang Dynasty and thought they could form an alliance for generations, but they didn't know that Wu Ding and Fu said they had deceived them from the beginning.
It's just to use Fu Hao."
The ancestor curled his lips and said, "It's unknown. Fu Hao comes from Huaiyi. It's hard to say which country it is. However, when Peng and Wei were fighting against Guifang, they sent troops to establish a new army.
Those who achieved success also brought back some advanced ghost tactics and weapons, which allowed Peng and Wei Kingdom to quickly merge many small areas in the Huaiyi area in more than 20 years after the war between the ghost court.
The princes, like the Zhou State, grew stronger by the annexation of the princes. You must know that they had the authority given by the Shang Dynasty to conquer the tribes of the unjust in all directions, and they could even intentionally cut off the tribute paths of some small states.
The excuse they did not pay tribute and sent troops to attack. This was exactly the same as the Zhou Kingdom in later generations.”
"And what really caused Peng and Wei to be attacked and destroyed was that they were involved in Wu Ding's dispute over the establishment of the legitimate prince, and opposed Wu Ding's decision to establish his youngest son Zu Jia as the prince, which touched the touch
Wu Ding's bottom line, foreign relatives interfered with the heirs, and no king could tolerate it. So Wu Ding personally conquered Peng and Wei, which was also the largest war against the Dongyi since the establishment of the Shang Dynasty." (End of this chapter)
