Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 913

Chapter 35 Nature chooses the strong to be respected

Due to different customs, Fusang mainland does not seem to have the concept of tribes. They all use city-states as their living groups. Their city guard is named Wizilopochtri, who is actually the god of war in their local ancient mythology, Wizilopoch Terry is responsible for the defense of the city-state and the attack on the enemy, and controls all the armed forces in the city-state.

The person in charge of the city-state is called Tlaloc.

Seeing Li Shimin set up the dragon flag, they naturally thought that this was their new king.Therefore, all the Wezilopochtri and Tlaloc from the tribes of the various city-states came to worship with young and strong warriors.

Li Shimin accepts the leaders of various city-states to come to visit him every day. Due to too many languages, although Du Ruhui is smart, he can only understand a few indigenous languages.

In fact, each of their city-states donated a piece of dog's head gold or some silver to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin also gave them some silk or tea.

After more than ten days, Li Shimin suddenly discovered that a city-state totem was Xianyuhu (sound), the Forbes leader of Xuanfang. Li Shimin could remember this special leader mainly because of the surname "Xianyu". The hometown of the Xianyu country is the area where merchants are active.

Moreover, this Xian Yuhu stared at Li Shimin and roared loudly with a very excited expression, it was Cheng Zhijie who simply and rudely hit him with the shield several times, finally calmed him down.

Li Shimin looked at Xian Yuhu and said strangely: "Didn't you leave? Why are you here again?"

Xian Yuhu turned to pointing at the shield in the hands of the guards beside Li Shimin, his expression became excited and crazy.At this time, several warriors from the city-state of Forbes carried a gray-haired old man on a rattan sedan chair.

The white-haired old man looked at the tiger-shaped shield in the hands of the guards of the Qin Palace. He suddenly struggled, got off the rattan sedan chair, and threw himself into the tiger-shaped shield.

All the Forbes people frowned and were at a loss.

The gray-haired old man Forbes began to sing with a unique rhythmic voice.

Listening to the voice of the old man singing, Du Ruhui's face became strange.Because he couldn't understand Xian Yuhu's words, but he could understand the words of this old Forbes man.

The words spoken by the old Forbes are the elegant words of the ancient times, and the so-called elegant words are the ancient Mandarin.

Du Ruhui was knowledgeable and talented, and while listening, he explained to Li Shimin: "We come from a distant kingdom of heaven, and our lives were originally rich and happy. One day, the fire of heaven began to burn in the west. They were all burned to ruins. Some people were burned to death by the sky fire, and some were punished as slaves. Under the leadership of the Holy King, we abandoned our homeland and left the kingdom of heaven..."

Li Shimin's eyes were wide open, pointing at the old man Forbes and muttering: "They...they..."

Du Ruhui said: "It's very possible that they discovered our different periods not because our dragon flag is similar to their Feathered Serpent God, but because of this tiger-shaped shield."

Of course, Li Shimin understands that the cast steel tiger head wrapped on this shield is freehand sculpture, which is unique to Huaxia. Although there are tigers in Fusang mainland, they are jaguars, but jaguars belong to the middle class between jaguars and jaguars. species.It can be said that the largest tiger in China is the Siberian tiger, with an adult weight of about 250 kilograms. Even the relatively small South China tiger weighs about 150 kilograms, but the jaguar only weighs about [-] kilograms.

This huge gap, unless you are blind, you can see it clearly.

Du Ruhui tried to communicate with this Forbes man in elegant language. Sure enough, the old Forbes man could understand what Du Ruhui said. Of course, there were too many obstacles in their communication. The difference between Chinese and Cantonese.

Older Forbes tell a whole story.Under the leadership of the Holy King (You Houxi), 25 Yin Shang soldiers and civilians were divided into five groups, and began the tens of thousands of miles of escape.According to this sung poem (let’s call it a poem. In later generations, the Yin Fubu people still insisted that they were descended from the Yin people. Some people asked why they were not descended from the Han or Tang people even though they had Chinese blood. handed down")
The Yinfubu people have always spread the legend of the kingdom of heaven, especially the worship of the Feathered Serpent God. Although the Chinese dragon and the Feathered Serpent God are very similar, in fact there are essential differences. (Dragon has been handed down from ancient times, but it has been evolving all the time.) The Yinfubu tribe was a branch of the Wutu tribe, one of the five migratory royal families, 3000 years ago.

Although the guards of Prince Qin's Palace wore black armor, and although the style was different from the legendary heavenly system, their eyebrows and eyes were the same as them.But the other party uses steel armor, and it is exquisitely made, which is definitely not something that Indians can make.Moreover, this standard style of armor is in the same line as the legendary heavenly armor style.

After a long time, the middle-aged Yin Fubu finally finished singing the story.Kneeling at the bow of the boat, he shouted at Li Shimin, "How is Yin?"

Li Shimin finally understood at this time.

Du Ruhui told the old man Forbes that Li Shimin was the king of Qin in the Tang Dynasty.

Hearing the word "Tang", the old man nodded slowly towards Li Shimin.

Signal Li Shimin to salute him.

Li Shimin was stunned, and through communication, the old man protested to Du Ruhui.He said that Tang State was a Marquis State under the rule of King Shang, while Xianyu State belonged to the Principality of Shang State, and Li Shimin should salute him.

Hearing this explanation, Li Shimin couldn't laugh or cry.

Li Shimin had no choice but to patiently explain to Xian Yuhu and others that Zhou State had already perished for more than 1000 years, and now the world is Tang State.

Hearing Zhou Guo's demise, the surrounding Forbes people shouted loudly: "Yin Dian!"

Where there is no wind, there is no wave, and any kind of theory or legend will have a certain factual basis.Whether the Native Americans were descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, if there is no corresponding evidence, there is no room for survival.There are countless races in the world.However, Huaxia has never told any legends about survivors related to other ethnic groups or indigenous tribes.

The Indians are the main source of the origin of the Yin and Shang survivors.In [-], Kang Youwei's political reform failed and he went into exile in the United States.When I watched the American (Indian Reservation), I was shocked: Why do these Americans have eyes, skin, hair, and voices so like Chinese?Later, he visited Mexico and was personally received by the Mexican President.After researching the ruins of the Mayan civilization, he found: "Every brick, every stone, every city and every temple here is no different from the Chinese civilization I have had for thousands of years."

Later, on the eve of the fall of the Qing Dynasty in 1910, the Qing government sent Ouyang Geng as a special envoy to travel east to Mexico to handle claims for killing more than 300 overseas Chinese during the Mexican Revolution.One day after Ouyang Geng completed the project, representatives of more than a hundred local Indian families came to petition Ouyang Geng.They told Ouyang Geng: During the Mexican Revolution, 750 Indians were killed. These Indians are of Chinese origin, descendants of the Yin people, called the Yinfubu tribe, who came here from the Kingdom of Heaven via the floating bridge island of the sky 3000 years ago.Request the Qing government to protect the claim together.

In fact, the fact that the descendants of the Shang Dynasty traveled to America was not a result of Chinese scholars’ far-fetched thinking, but because many Central American peoples themselves admitted that they were descendants of the Shang Dynasty.It was in the middle and late Qing Dynasty that China began to get familiar with the American continent. At that time, even the Central Plains was in a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. Even if they hugged thick legs, those American tribes would not hug China's thick legs.

The Yinfubu tribe located in the Yucatan Peninsula is one of the 25 armies and 25 tribes who immigrated from the Yin Shang survivors. Many of these 25 soldiers and civilians disappeared into the sea because they encountered storms and had no chance to reach the American continent.The tribes that managed to reach the Americas were also attacked and killed by the local natives because of heavy losses. The surviving tribes had a very small population, and some of them intermarried with the natives and were gradually assimilated by the natives.However, there are also some tribes that are surrounded by powerful enemies and persist tenaciously.

The Forbes told each other that Li Shimin and the others came from the Heavenly Kingdom of Tang, and they were the princes of the Yin and Shang dynasties! "

Li Shimin was worried that he would not be able to rule the entire Qinwang City. There are more than 50 city-states around the Qinwangfu. Li Shimin also thought about following Zhao Tuo's example and intermarrying with the natives. The key is that Zhao Tuo has 50 troops. Integrating Baiyue, but Li Shimin only has more than 100 people. Even if they all become stallions, if they want to give birth to a nation, they don't know that it will take years of monkeys and months of horses.

Li Shimin promulgated the King of Qin Order in the palace of the King of Qin, claiming that he was ordered by the Emperor of Tang to travel thousands of miles to find the survivors of the Shang Dynasty and bring them back to the land of Yin.

With the spread of this decree, more than 100 soldiers of King Qin's Mansion began to study Tang dialect with the Forbes tribe, and then, using the advanced agricultural technology of Datang, led them to live a prosperous life.

Under the rule of the city-state of the King of Qin, the Forbes clan was actually renamed as the Tang people. There are eight surnames in the Forbes clan: Hua, Xianyu, Zi, Wen, Ai, Yin, Fu, and Guzhu. Yu Ren became the first batch of Tang people.They enjoy first-class national treatment. Not only do they not have to pay taxes, but they can also become officials, warriors and scholars at all levels.

Just paying taxes has made Tlaloc in other city-states anxious. Why can the Forbes enjoy tax-free treatment, but we can't?
So, they found out that they claimed to be descendants of the Yin people, so they could be exempted from tax.

So smart city-states began to pour into everyone. We are also the adherents of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, from a distant kingdom of heaven.

Li Shimin found sadly that the Aztecs didn't care about blood at all, especially the phenomenon of intermarriage with Texcocos and Tlacopans was very common.To put it in a bad way, the Aztecs are a mixed race, and almost [-]% of the people have two or more bloodlines.He himself was an Aztec, his grandfather was a Coracopan, and his great-grandfather was a Tecoco.Many people can't even tell what bloodline they are.

It was only then that Li Shimin discovered that the Aztecs were actually just like the late Qin and early Han. People from Qin, Yan, or Chu could all be collectively called Tang people.In order to save trouble, when reorganizing the household registration, it is uniformly defined as Tang people, and only the surname is reserved.

However, there are really people who are not open-eyed. Chichimek, who has a good relationship with the Tikal Empire, the southern overlord of the Aztec Empire, is not confident. Their hunting team of about [-] people entered the Yuanke in the southeastern part of Fusang Tang Kingdom. Lacopan (now Fusang Tangguo Quanzhou), changed to the battle of the Tang people's Kelacopan people.

After Li Shimin heard the news, without further ado, he ordered the left general Cheng Zhijie to lead his forward general Xian Yuhu to rush to the mansion four times, with more than [-] troops, and marched more than [-] miles in a hurry to enter the territory of Chichimek.Directly wiped out this tribe with more than [-] people.According to the tradition of the Aztecs, all prisoners of war were used to worship the gods, and women and children became spoils of war and were quickly divided up.

After the Chichimek incident, the tribes around Fusang Datang were suddenly shaken.

The forest of nations in the world has always been selected by nature, and the strong are respected.With the rise of the Tang Dynasty, there is a tendency to beat anyone who dares to refuse to accept it.Even the people of Tikal, who suffered a modest loss, pretended to be deaf and dumb.This makes these small tribes also claim that they are also descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, and they are of the same origin as the Tang people.

This kind of superficial ethnicity has a characteristic, that is, no matter what kind of ethnicity the ruling class claims, its people will also be named by the name of a certain ethnicity, and after one or two generations, they will form self-identity, but this self-identity is different. It is very fragile. If there is another more powerful conqueror, after decades of rule, people of the same blood will become another nation.Li Shimin ignored these problems, and accepted all the ethnic groups who were willing to belong to them.

In less than a year, Li Shimin annexed 56 surrounding city-states in this way, and brought more than two million people around him into his rule.

Every night, Li Shimin would look to the northwest: "I, Li Shimin, will be back!"

……

In the East Side Hall of Xiande Hall in Chang'an, Li Jiancheng and Zheng Guanyin stood with bows, bowing to Wei Zheng, Chen Ying, and Fang Xuanling.

Li Jiancheng led Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and Chen Ying to sit down.

The maid opened the cover of a dish on the table.

Li Jiancheng pointed to the dish and said, "Xuancheng, this is the most famous dish in Guanzhong, yangkan. The yangkan originated from the beef yangkan in the Zhou Dynasty, and the yangkan in Guanzhong is extremely delicious. When I was young, I loved this dish the most. Xuancheng They are from Hebei, and Xuanling is from Shandong, and they are such Guanzhong delicacies, which I didn’t eat often before. Try it!”

Zheng Guanyin stabbed Li Jiancheng secretly.

Li Jiancheng smiled awkwardly.

Fang Xuanling said with a stinking face: "Your Majesty grew up with rich and delicious food, I really dare not compare."

Chen Ying looked at the two of them, and hurriedly said: "I like this dish the most, I can feast on it!"

With that said, Chen Ying began to devour it.

Li Jiancheng smiled awkwardly, pointed to the second dish and said, "This dish is called stuffed skin. It's not a famous and expensive dish of rich and noble people. It's just a unique recipe. I'm afraid it's rarely eaten in Kanto and Hebei. This is also Guanzhong. People's favorite food."

Wei Zheng took a sip with his chopsticks, frowned and said, "The garlic juice is too thick, if you add more vinegar, it would be good."

Fang Xuanling didn't move his chopsticks at all.

The corners of Li Jiancheng's mouth twitched, forcing a smile.

Zheng Guanyin tried her best to hold back her laughter, and carefully looked at Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling.

Li Jiancheng took a deep breath and said, "Xuanling, try this wine again, Huanggui thick wine, which originated from the mash of the Zhou Dynasty..."

Fang Xuanling picked up the wine and quickly interrupted Li Jiancheng.

Fang Xuanling said: "This wine official has drunk it, it is not as mellow as the Qingzhou in Qizhou."

Li Jiancheng frowned.

Zheng Guanyin hurriedly pulled Li Jiancheng's sleeve under the table.

Li Jiancheng forcibly suppressed his displeasure, took a deep breath, smiled again and said, "Jiancheng plans to worship Xuanling as a political advisor, and ask Xuanling to assist Jiancheng to create a peaceful and prosperous world for the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an."

Fang Xuanling said unmoved: "Your Majesty, I have three requests. I wonder if Your Majesty can agree to them?"

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying and said, "But if you ask, Jiancheng will not refuse."

Fang Xuanling took a sip of Huanggui thick wine, frowned and lowered his eyebrows, cleared his throat, sat upright and said, "The first thing is that officials and titles are state treasures and should not be granted indiscriminately. , It has a lot to do with the world, and you can't be selected casually. You must be cautious when you are appointed as an official..."

Li Jiancheng smacked his lips, looking helpless.

Fang Xuanling went on to say: "The second thing is to take advice, listen to one side and you will be dark, and if you listen to both sides, you will be clear. If you don't listen to different opinions, no matter how good the emperor will be, sooner or later he will go bad; The power should be returned to the courts, as a monarch, one should not rashly interfere with the exercise of power by his subordinates, otherwise, he would distrust his subordinates and be irresponsible for state affairs."

After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he picked up his chopsticks and began to taste the dishes one by one.

Li Jiancheng muttered, but couldn't find the words for a while.

With a smile on his face, Zheng Guanyin looked at Li Jiancheng and Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng, who were engrossed in the table.

Wei Zheng waved to the maid beside him, "Bring some vinegar!"

Li Jiancheng said embarrassingly: "I'm not feeling well, so go and make it easier for me first!"

With that said, Li Jiancheng flung his sleeves and walked away.

Chen Ying hurriedly followed.

Walking outside the main hall, Li Jiancheng was still full of resentment. He watched Chen Ying chasing him, and immediately vented and said: "Chen Ying, you have seen it all today. I am sincere and sincere. Fang Xuanling But he doesn't care, pointing east and west, I think this Fang Xuanling still hates me... and remember Erlang!"

Li Jiancheng sighed depressingly: "The enmity between me and Fang Xuanling seems to be irresolvable, he is not willing to do things for me wholeheartedly at all."

Chen Ying said with a relaxed face: "I think Fang Xuanling's behavior today is reasonable. He really didn't pay attention to the appointment of your prime minister, and he didn't pay attention to you. He was very grateful, but the famous people in Qizhou really deserve it." Yes, I gave you three useful suggestions. Are these three suggestions important?"

Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "These three suggestions are naturally excellent, but...couldn't the position of Prime Minister not express...the importance and respect I have for him?"

Chen Ying smiled lightly and said: "Your Majesty, you are also familiar with the classics and history. You should know the advantages and disadvantages of being kingly and domineering. Back then, Qin Shihuang was domineering and died young. Great Qin II died, and Sui Wendi was domineering. After the death of the world, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was domineering, and the scourge of witchcraft in his later years killed more than 10 people in Chang'an. The sixteen soldiers of the Han Dynasty were either killed or belittled.

Li Jiancheng looked at Chen Ying in a daze and said, "You also think that Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng are right?"

Chen Ying nodded and said: "The Emperor is the Son of Heaven, but he is also a human being. Human energy is limited. Your Majesty must let go when it is time to let go!"

Li Jiancheng looked at Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling in the window in a daze.
