Chapter 421: The country name is the original and the battle for survival
Zhiyao is not a person who cannot accept correct opinions.
Now, Zhiyao has not officially ascended to the throne, and the founding ceremony of the country has not been held. At the same time, the Zhou royal family has not been informed of the country name that will be used. It does not have to use "Tang" as the country name.
According to the opinions of many people, they believe that Zhiyao can choose a country name between "Yuan" and "Zhi", and they also believe that "Yuan" is the most legal country name.
If she had to choose between "Yuan" or "Zhi", Zhiyao would choose "Yuan" as the country name.
The reason is not complicated. It is a fait accompli that the Zhi family has transformed the family into a country. Previously, the Zhi family was used as a family with high status. Zhi Yao did not eliminate the other families with high status. Once "Zhi" is used as the name of the country, it will be difficult to avoid the Han family.
, the Fox family and the Zhong family will have some awkwardness, and there will be a lingering embarrassment.
If "Yuan" is used as the national title, some awkwardness will disappear, and embarrassment will become dispensable.
After all, the Zhi family is a minor sect of the Xun family. The Xun family was formerly called the Yuan family, and the Yuan family was the master of the Yuan Kingdom.
In this way, Zhiyao's position as king will have legal authority, which can avoid unnecessary public attacks and relieve many people's worries.
So, since Zhiyao knew those principles, why did he choose "Tang" as the country's name in the first place?
To put it bluntly, it is a problem that all time travelers have. Their perception is that "the strong Han Dynasty prospered", and whether the geographical location and the Han River are within reach, they can use "Wei Tian has Han, prison also has light", "Zhuo Bi"
"Yun Han, Zhao Hui Tian" to explain why the country should be named Han; once it is in Jin, it is natural to want to use Tang as the country's name.
In addition, as for the country name Han, it was actually used badly and badly during the Five Husties. At that time, there were the Xiongnu Han "Liu Yuan", Han Zhao (Jieren Shihu), Chenghan (Diren Li).
Xiong), Hou Han (Jieren Hou Jing), Liu Yuan do have the blood of Liu Han, but none of them are Han, right?
There have been more than a dozen unified empires and separatist forces with "Han" as their country name. The unified empire is actually okay, but the separatist forces and alien regimes really ruined this country's name.
There are five countries that use "Tang" as their country name. The first is the Tao Tang regime of Emperor Yao; the second is the Tang Dynasty with the surname Ji, which is the predecessor of the Jin Dynasty; and the third is the Tang Dynasty established by Li Yuan
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was not really the founding king; the fourth one was after the demise of the Tang Empire, Li Cunxu proclaimed himself emperor in Weizhou and still used the "Tang" country name; the fifth one was the Southern Tang Dynasty established by Li Yu.
It is rumored that Shi Jingtang also used the country name Tang, but the history books recorded it as the later Jin Dynasty.
Zhiyao led his army to force the surrender of "Qufu" very easily, and after taking the occupation, he led his troops to "Handan".
During this period, important people were notified that they needed to go to "Handan" to participate in the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China and Zhiyao's ascension ceremony.
Zhiyao not only summoned his subordinates, but also sent invitations to the princes in "Mao".
As for Shan Gongyuan, he followed Zhiyao throughout the journey. He himself needed to witness the founding of Zhiyao on behalf of Emperor Zhou, and then confirm what was ultimately used as the country's name, so that he could send the country's name determined by Zhiyao to the historians of various countries.
The country name used in the future will be recorded in history books.
Why did you choose to hold the founding ceremony in "Handan"? If Zhiyao once hoped to use "Puyang" as the starting point to whip the princes, now "Puyang" may serve as the front line of the war in a short period of time.
It is not suitable to hold relevant ceremonies in "Puyang", only "Handan" is the most suitable.
Zhiyao founded the country in "Handan", but the capital will not be located in "Handan". The capital will eventually be located in "Puyang", but it will not stimulate the Song Dynasty for the time being.
The reason is that after the Song State annexed the Cao State, "Puyang" was too close to the border of the Song State. If the Yuan State immediately announced that its capital was in "Puyang", the Song State would not be able to become an enemy of the Yuan State.
In addition, some people originally suggested that the founding ceremony and the ascension ceremony be held in "Qufu", thinking that it was a blessed land to some extent, and that after the ceremony, one could go to Mount Tai for sacrifices.
Going to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices? Zhiyao doesn’t think she has that qualification yet.
The founding ceremony and enthronement ceremony were held in "Qufu"? Did the Emperor of the Second Empire ascend the throne in Versailles???
By the way, there is a difference between ascending the throne and ascending to the throne. ascending the throne can change the Yuan Dynasty, while ascending the throne means sitting on a high position to govern. Nowadays, the requirements for Jianyuan and changing the Yuan are not so strict, but the only one who can use the term ascending the throne is the Emperor of Zhou.
Zhiyao first announced that the country name he wanted to use was "Tang", but later used "Yuan" as the country name at the founding ceremony. Is this a kind of back-tracking? How can he go back on his word without finalizing it?
Will it have any impact on Zhiyao? It definitely will!
However, one thing always has many aspects, otherwise there would be no saying that "you can make great improvements if you know your mistakes".
Generally speaking, the Zhi family belongs to the type where Zhi Yao can do whatever they want. The Han family, the Hu family and the Zhong family take it for granted that the final country name is "Yuan".
As for the Han, Hu and Zhong families, after Zhiyao finally confirmed that "Yuan" was the country's name, the awkwardness in their hearts disappeared and they accepted the fact that a new era had arrived.
After this wave, Zhiyao not only did not lose her prestige, but instead showed everyone that she was willing to accept criticism.
To be honest, once everyone thinks that Zhiyao is a stubborn person who knows he is wrong, they should think about whether this new country can last long.
After attending the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, Han Geng and Zhong Quan left again to do their respective responsibilities.
This time, after Han Geng and Zhong Quan were summoned, it was a good thing to go to "Handan" in the shortest time. It proved that even if they were a little careful, they still showed their obedient side to Zhiyao.
Of course, it could also be Han Geng or Zhong Quan who is trying to confuse Zhiyao and gain their trust by putting themselves in danger.
Including Chu State, all existing countries sent people to attend Zhi's founding ceremony. Not only did they learn that the country name used was "Yuan", but they also confirmed that Zhi Yao had not changed his surname.
For the princes, the return of the Zhi family to the country was expected, but what was surprising was the return of the Han family to the original country.
Not only did the Zhi clan replace the Jin State, but the newly born Yuan State was also a powerful entity that annexed Qiuyou, Zhongshan, Wei State and most of the Qi State.
The concubine surnamed Chen also sent people to attend the ceremony held in "Handan". As an envoy, Tian Heng..., the crown prince of the Chen Kingdom, also made it clear to Zhiyao that he could withdraw from Donglai at any time.
Regarding the matter of moving, the Chen family has been working on it for three or four years. They have moved about 180,000 people from the Central Plains and countless supplies.
It was precisely because the Gui surnamed Chen family had been migrating that Zhiyao did not send troops to destroy the newly re-established Chen State.
This time, Mrs. Chen, Gui's surname, behaved quite wisely, but Zhiyao knew that they must have other plans.
For example, if the Yuan Kingdom cannot withstand the attack of the coalition of princes, the Chen family not only will not leave, but they will also become a part of the coalition.
In any case, Zhiyao, who had just ascended to the throne, did not stay in "Handan" to enjoy his happiness.
The 60,000-strong army that participated in the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China went out in high spirits. Later, they met with about 10,000 cavalrymen in the Daye Lake area, and the combined force of 70,000 troops continued to march towards "Mao".
This 70,000-strong army is all from the Zhi family, that is, there is no participation from the Han family, the Hu family, and the Zhong family, and the reappearance of the Fan family and the Zhongxing family are not among them.
The Fan family and the Zhongxing family? Shigaoyi has been worshiping the ancestors of the Fan family, but it was changed to the Fan family. They got Zhiyao's permission to use the Fan family again; Zhongxing Yin is still alive, and they will become the original royal family in the future.
A member of the group, but he uses Zhonghangshi.
I believe that Zhao Muxie in "Mao" and Zhao Bolu in Qin will have extremely complicated emotions when they learn that the Fan family and the Zhonghang family have reappeared.
This time, Zhao Muxie took five thousand cavalry to participate in the alliance held in "Yongqiu", and later became a part of the coalition.
Of course, not all existing countries participated in the coalition. For example, Chen State and Song State did not join.
The Song State did not explicitly refuse. They found a very suitable reason to delay. The next step will be to see what direction the upcoming war will take. Once the coalition forces gain the upper hand, it will be inevitable for the Song State to become a member of the coalition forces.
Well, Zheng Guo is really not alone in sitting on the fence. It has gradually become a norm for all countries whose strength is not embarrassing.
Zheng Guo did join the coalition, but they secretly maintained contact with the original country, and expressed their attitude that the decision to replace the "sacrificial" land with "Nan Yan" would not change.
All these just illustrate the fact that the princes are not monolithic, they have their own demands.
The alliance of multiple forces seems quite majestic? The fact is that it will also be chaotic internally. The reason is that each force has a demand and has many conflicts of its own, and past conflicts will not disappear just because of the alliance.
The Jin State in the past knew very well that they had many younger brothers, but their main purpose was to collect "contributions". Even if they were called to go out together, the many younger brothers usually only existed as cheerleaders, and there was no expectation that the younger brothers could exert much strength.
The Chu State, which had fought a war for hegemony with the Jin State for hundreds of years, also understood this truth, but the Chu State's approach was on the other side.
The State of Chu has always treated its younger brothers roughly, and is very fond of annexing allies. Regarding this, I believe the princes will not forget it so quickly.
The envoys from the princes, after the army of the original country was stationed in "Chengqiu", they accepted the hospitality of the monarchs and ministers of the original country, and then they left and rushed to "Mao" to return their orders to their monarchs.
Among all the teams, the Lu State’s envoy has the strongest presence.
Based on the current situation, it seems that most of the Lu Kingdom has fallen, and even the capital has been occupied by the Yuan Kingdom.
Their envoys participated in the founding ceremony of the Yuan Kingdom and did not cause trouble when Zhiyao ascended to the throne. After the ceremony, they started crying, and the drama of Lu envoys crying at the "Yuan" court was repeatedly staged. Strangely, they did not express their stance on withdrawing from the coalition forces.
Whether the Lu State will be subjugated or not depends on the outcome of the meeting in "Mao".
And the first war after the founding of the original country is about to break out!
