When the Yuan army came to kill, the Donghu people, Tu He and Wu Zhong people were actually quite confused at first.
Now the distance is more than a hundred miles... maybe not as much as a hundred miles, but only about ten miles apart, it will almost become two worlds.
The territory of Donghu, Tuhe, and Wuhu is not bordering the original country. They have no written language of their own and can only make up songs and pass them on to future generations. However, the songs will soon become myths and few can understand them.
Before the Yellow River changed its course, the Yan State had infrequent contacts with other countries in the Central Plains. Ordinary common people in the Yan State had long forgotten that there were other vassal states, and even many nobles had long forgotten about it.
Those foreigners may think that the Yan Kingdom in the south is the end of the world, and they have no idea that there are so many countries further south.
This truth is not complicated. Even the former overlords Jin or Chu would most likely have no idea that there is another force called Donghu in the world, and they have no idea what countries or forces are further away.
.
Now, the original army suddenly appears and enters from the north and west at the same time, which is indeed confusing.
The original army coming from the north was a cavalry force with the Yulin Army as the main force. After a large detour, they penetrated into the territory of Tuhe and Wuwen in advance, annihilating one after another tribes with few men left, consuming a lot of money.
It took about two months before we transferred to the south.
The original army coming from the south had already swept through one city or village after another in the Yan State, and had initially completed control of most of the Yan State's territory. The agreed time was almost up before setting off to the north.
Because the original army coming from the north was cavalry and did not raise a flag when it was far away. Before the foreigners recognized who it was, most of the foreigners were actually surprised that they did not have such an army.
Join the war.
On the other hand, when Wu Jingren saw the army coming from the south with chariots, they knew immediately that they were enemies.
At that time, the Wujing people were blocking the Yan army. Don't expect Wujing, who was not highly civilized, to have a strict chain of command. Even if they knew that the attackers were evil, they still needed time to readjust, but they couldn't do it quickly no matter how hard they tried.
of.
When Wu Zhongren and the Yan army were mixed together and fighting, the chariot troops of the original army rushed in first. In an instant, there was no distinction between Wu Zhong Ren and the Yan army soldiers. It was a rampage anyway.
The Wu Ending people, who had never seen the original army and didn't even know there was a country called the original country, immediately knew they were enemies when they saw the chariots and the clothes of the original army soldiers.
When the Yan soldiers saw the original army, no matter from the flags or uniforms, they only knew that they were not reinforcements from their own country, and had no other relevant knowledge.
At that time, the soldiers of the Yan Army discovered that the newly emerged troops were mainly targeting Wuming people. While they were relieved, more questions arose in their minds.
However, no matter what happened, some people in Yan State still knew that the army that suddenly appeared must be from the south.
This is something that is obvious at a glance. In the East Asian continent in the current era, the northern part of the Yan Kingdom is full of foreign races in the semi-primitive era, and only the southern part has countries with a relatively high level of civilization.
Xiaoshuting app
On a global scale, the level of civilization in West Asia is actually not low. There was an Achaemenid dynasty (the first Persian Empire) established across Europe, Asia, and Africa in 550 BC.
At this stage, in addition to the Zhuxia civilization, many ancient civilizations have disappeared, including the ancient Egyptian civilization and the Babylonian civilization. The first Persian empire rose on the original lands of the ancient Egyptian civilization and the Babylonian civilization.
Greek civilization trembled under the military peak of Persian civilization.
Rome, which was going to be massacred in the future, had just ended their monarchy era, and when it entered the republic era, Rome was still a small country with a big nose.
The rest of Asia, including the whole of Europe and other continents, is either in the age of savages or in the age of primitive tribes.
The people of Yan country may not have the concept of "same culture and species". They only know that the strange army that appeared is slaughtering their enemies. Most of the Yan army soldiers sat on the ground and gasped for air. A small number of Yan army soldiers followed the original army and faced
Kill the foreigners.
"That character is '元', right?" Yan Ping wasn't so sure, he just made a wild guess based on the hieroglyphics.
A new question appeared in Yan Ping's mind: "Is there a vassal state called Yuan?"
Who allowed the Qi State to save the Yan State? Of course, the Qi State was most described in the history books of the Yan people.
As for other vassal states, Song occupies the second place in the history books of Yan State.
For no other reason, before they lose contact with the Emperor Zhou and the princes, the rulers of the Ji family will basically be told to be wary of the possible comeback of the remnants of the Yin Shang.
Yan Ping saw Yan Juncheng and was surprised that he didn't raise a flag.
Of course, Yan Jun said that he could not raise his banner. His capital was captured and most of his territory was lost. Soon the entire country will become part of the original country.
"Jun Yan can summon his subordinates. It's okay to reorganize the army and embarrass me." Zhikai said with a smile.
No, although the Yan army was defeated, it was beaten badly by the foreign coalition forces just a moment ago. It is estimated that there are still more than 20,000 soldiers.
An army of 20,000 is quite a lot. Even if it is placed on the current battlefield of the Central Plains, even if it cannot determine the decisive outcome of a battle, at least it can be regarded as capital.
Yan Jun apologized and said with a smile: "The prince does not need to be like this. If Xiaohou surrenders, he surrenders."
What a joke!
Didn’t you see that the foreign coalition forces that drove the Yan army to fight were like chickens and dogs under the offensive of the original army?
Of course, there were quite a few factors that put the Yan army in such a predicament. A preliminary understanding of the size of the Yuan Kingdom's territory, the population of the country, and the number of troops that could be mobilized made Yan Junsheng understand that it was impossible to openly resist the Yuan Kingdom.
It's not like Gou Jian is the only one who can endure humiliation and bear the burden. Yan Jun said that what he wants now is to endure it for the time being if he can't resist. What happens in the future depends on the situation.
Of course, it has to do with the fact that Yan Junchen still viewed the original country with the thoughts and perspectives of the classical era.
In the view of Yan Juncheng, the Yuan Kingdom would not completely destroy the Yan Kingdom. At most, it would take some benefits and make unequal covenants. Sooner or later, it would have to evacuate.
Is this thought strange? It’s not strange at all.
In the original version of history, the Qin State has already inspired "One World", while the other countries are still in the era of seeking hegemony. The gap in ideological realm is so big, who else can win if it is not the Qin State.
Zhifa found that the nobles of the Yan Kingdom recognized the Lord of Yan and gathered around him.
The people of Yan State were blocked from outside. They were shouting loudly for Lord Yan, and they seemed to be quite excited emotionally.
Zhikai signaled that he could send a group of people over.
Waiting for these Yan people to come to Yan Juncheng, everyone was talking in a garbled manner. Too many people spoke and the scene was a bit chaotic, making it difficult to hear clearly what was being said.
"I'm fine!" Yan Juncheng shouted loudly.
Afterwards, Yan Juncheng said a series of words to those people of Yan country, using the dialect of Yan country.
Naturally, someone translated it for Zhikai.
Yan Jun said that he described the arrival of the Yuan army very well. He said it was a savior, reinforcements and so on, and it sounded very good.
As for the capital and most of the territory being controlled by the original army? Yan Jun said that he would be heartbroken. It is unknown what the uninformed Yan people would do if he told it, so he would not say it for now.
Were reinforcements coming, or did they know that the Yan Kingdom was being bullied and oppressed by foreigners, and an army traveled thousands of miles to come to the rescue?
Yuan State? What kind of country is this? Is it a big country like Qi State with benevolence and righteousness?
There are too many speculations in the minds of the people of Yan State. What they can know is that the army of the original country is very powerful. How powerful it is can be proved by how miserable the alien coalition forces are.
Under the offensive of the Yuan army, Wu Zhongren had been completely defeated, and it was only a matter of time before they were annihilated. The troops of Dong Hu and Tu He were charged left and right by the Yuan cavalry with the Yu Lin army as sharp swords, and they penetrated area after area.
, how majestic it was before, how miserable it is now.
Although it was because the original army joined the battlefield too suddenly, in fact it was also because the foreign coalition forces were inferior to the original army in terms of quality and armament.
At that time, the foreign coalition forces were already at war with the Yan army, which meant that most of the foreigners were not riding horses, and the horses had been driven away before the war.
However, the Yulin Army and other original cavalry rushed into the battlefield on horseback, especially before they dismounted to fight on foot. They rode at high speed on their war horses and then used crossbows or sabers to harvest the lives of foreigners. How could it not be more efficient?
While waiting for the chariot soldiers and infantry of the original country to rush through the Wu Ending people's war zone and join in the killing of the Donghu and Tuhe people, except for the foreigners who left the battlefield in time, the foreigners who wanted to escape would basically be rearranged by the original country's cavalry.
Block back to the battlefield.
"Prince, Yan Jun must disarm first..." Zhi Xuwu came to Zhi Kai and reminded him in a low voice.
Zhikai glanced at Yan Juncheng, who was talking to his subordinates, and replied: "Just let the monarch and his subordinates cut off contact with the soldiers."
In the vassal states of the classical era, there were no orders from the nobles, and soldiers would not advocate doing anything even if they had any ideas.
Now of course we have to guard against the Yan army, but the risk of disarming is a bit high, and it is enough to control the monarchs and ministers of the Yan state.
Sima Ranju came over and wondered what Zhikai and Zhixuwu had talked about before. He suggested that the monarchs and ministers of Yan should be settled properly first, and then the soldiers of the Yan army should be placed separately.
"There are indeed differences between people..." What Zhi Kaixin was thinking about was the gap between Zhi Xuwu and Sima Ranju.
However, in terms of trust, Zhikai definitely trusts Zhixu Wu more. This has nothing to do with ability, but only with the combination of interests.
The contemporary Zhi clan, or the Zhi clan before Zhi Yao's death, will be very united and will give high priority to capable surnames. The clan members will give excess power even if their abilities meet the standards. The feudal people who do not understand this principle
No one in the dynasty has a chance to be reborn.
No matter how enlightened Zhiyao is, she will still uphold the concept of family and world.
Judging from the process of historical evolution, Zhuxia indeed does not have the soil for a republic.
Even the famous Zhou Gongdan was so powerful when he was alive that he was suppressed to the point that people in the world only knew about Zhou Gongdan but not about the Emperor of Zhou. That is why the two figures "Zhou Gong feared the day of rumors, but Wang Mang was humble and did not usurp the throne."
Allusions to the protagonist.
Taking the Jin Dynasty as an example, the stage of co-governance by "lords" can also be regarded as a kind of republic. It was just a power game played by the top nobles, and ordinary people had no political rights at all.
Without Li Shu's participation, can it be called a republic? Obviously it won't work.
The original country needs people with the same blood relationship as the cornerstone of stability, and then appropriately delegates power to foreign surnames to take on important responsibilities. Considering the limitations of the times, there is no more appropriate approach than this.
If Zhiyao takes too big a step, for example, the world is for the common good, not only the tribe will be angry, but the people of the world will also laugh at Zhiyao as a fool, and the situation of a strong country will collapse in less than ten or twenty years.
Therefore, it is more appropriate to walk step by step in a down-to-earth manner, right?
It took half a month for the original army to officially end the war.
Among them, some of the original troops pursued them the furthest, reaching the territory of Donghu. They did not turn back until they were blocked by the boundless forest.
After the victory, Zhikai did not take the monarchs of Yan State and the army back to the outskirts of "Ji". They rested for three days near the original main battlefield. After setting off again, they took the monarchs of Yan State and the remaining Yan army to the original battlefield.
The country's home march.
"Prince, is this not the way to 'Ji'?" Yan Jun said that he found Zhikai after walking for four days to raise the question.
Zhikai said: "This time Dayuan sent troops to the north. They met Donghu for the first time and slaughtered him without end. My king does not know that this tribe exists. Lord Yan and his subjects know it very well. Why don't you meet my king and tell him in detail?"
This is a more civilized statement.
To be more rude, what Zhikai means is: If you come back to China with me, you will get good treatment. Don't mess around, otherwise what will happen next, don't say it's unforeseen!
It is not clear whether there are still Wuji, Tu He has been swept through, and those who can be found are either killed or captured. Even if there are remnants, they will not stir up any trouble.
Donghu is not so easy to eliminate. Just walking through the endless dense forest is a big trouble. Yuan Guo can only follow Donghu slowly from behind, while trying his best to understand Donghu and looking for opportunities to bleed Donghu again and again until
One day they will be completely eliminated or driven far away.
When unable to contact the grassroots, Yan Jun said that he had understood the seriousness of the matter and was just in a state of hesitation.
Now? When Yan Juncheng thought about what was very likely to happen, he broke into a cold sweat and at the same time, a kind of despair also climbed into his heart.
"I have never had any enmity with the original country..." Yan Jun's words were cut off midway.
Zhikai reiterated his views before the war...
The monarchs and ministers of the Yan State were unable to defend their territory, so the original parliament took on the heavy responsibility of defending the territory.
Since the Li people could not guarantee the safety of life and property under the rule of the monarchs and ministers of the Yan State, the mission of the establishment of the Yuan State was to protect ethnic groups of the same culture and race from the threat of foreigners. The Yuan State would then fulfill its responsibilities.
The words are equally elegant and full of great truths.
Yan Juncheng was deeply shocked by Zhikai's shamelessness!
