Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 559
Little is known about the deeds of the Emperor.

There are twelve brothers in the Emperor's family (thirteen are said to be one), and the twelve brothers have the same body and appearance, so they cannot be distinguished.

They all have the same appearance: a snake's body with a human head and dragon horns on their heads.

At the beginning of the Emperor's reign, he encountered a catastrophe of fire and high temperature. In order to solve the severe drought in the world, the Emperor led the project of making rain from the sky, creating an atmospheric celestial body that can not only filter out the sun's poison, but also rain in a timely manner.

The emperor came in and out as quickly as the wind.

At that time, there were few people and the folk customs were simple. The emperor did not interfere too much, and ruled by doing nothing.

His greatest achievement is making calendars.

"Pangu Wangbiao" records: The emperor began to make the names of the stems and branches to determine the location of the age.

The Ten Heavens Gan said: Yanfeng, Zhanmeng, Rouzhao, Qiangyu, Zhuyong, Tuwei, Shangzhang, Chongguang, Xuan (Hei Ge), Zhaoyang.

The twelve earthly branches are: Shetige, Shanyan, Zhixu, Dahuangluo, Dunpang, Xieqia, Yitan, Zuog, Xiemao, Dazhouxian, Yudun, Chifenruo.

Invented numbers: zero, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, twenty, thirty, 卌, hundred, thousand, ten thousand.

The Emperor believes that the change of natural climate is the result of the rotation of Yin and Yang and the Five Movements, which come and go again and again.

He advocates the luck of wood and virtue, is quiet and indifferent, and governs by doing nothing.

He created the heavenly stems and earthly branches, and began to make the Book of Changes "Lianshan".

From then on, people began to use the five fortunes of earth, gold, water, wood, and fire to summarize the laws of movement and change of the qi of the five elements between heaven and earth, and to understand the concept of yin and yang.

The invention of Ganzhi marks the emergence of the most primitive calendar, which is used to calculate years with numbers.

In the later inheritance, it is said that in the era of the Yellow Emperor, the names of Ganzhi were simplified to one character.

However, this invention of the Emperor's has a far-reaching impact, and he is still using Ganzhi to this day for calendars, spells, calculations, naming, etc...

There is no doubt that this is a great legend.

Of course, it only exists in legends, after all, there is not even the most basic historical data.

If you want to go back, the Emperor can be said to be a figure of the Paleolithic Age.

Historical figures millions of years ago!

The son does not talk strangely and forcefully.

However, people in this era, especially the Yue people in the south, believed in gods extremely.

In their minds, the Emperor is like a supreme god, like their ancestors, with a lofty status.

Therefore, if Qingji wants to completely win the trust of the Baiyue people and win the hearts of the people, he must elevate the status of the emperor and respect the cultural customs of the Baiyue people.

"Feast!"

After Qingji finished reading the sacrificial oration, he waved his hand again and ordered Gong'e to bring the sacrificial offerings prepared in advance to the spiritual case.

The six sacrificial offerings, namely jade cong, jade bi, jade gui, jade zhang, jade huang, and jade hu, are called "six utensils" and are one of the important sacrificial utensils in ancient times.

Jade cong is an important and mysterious ritual vessel among ancient jade wares. It is not only used to worship the earth, but also a symbol of authority.

"Zhou Li" records: Use jade as six vessels, and respect the four directions of heaven and earth: Heaven with Cangbi, Earth with yellow cong, East with Qinggui, South with Chizhang, West with white amber, and North with Xuanhuang.

This is also the origin of the thought of "Heaven, Loess, Qinglong, Suzaku, White Tiger, Xuanwu" in later generations.

"Ten thousand years! Ten thousand years! Ten thousand years for the King! Ten thousand years for the Wu Kingdom!"

In the eyes of Baiyue people, Qingji's act of offering sacrifices to the Emperor's family is very honorable.

Therefore, after the ceremony was completed, everyone knelt down to Qing Ji on the altar and shouted "Wannian".

……

After the Yuejiang alliance, under Qingji's order, the [-] Wu army began to conquer all the small countries and tribes in Baiyue that had not yet chosen to give up their power and positions, and were completely integrated into Wu.

There are three main attack directions of the Wu army, one is the Minyue Seven Division in the northeast of Nanhai County, the other is Cangwu County (country) in the north, and the other is the Luoyue people in the southwest.

Among them, the most powerful is the Luoyue people.

Therefore, Qingji led an army of [-] people and marched mightily towards the Luoyue people who were entrenched in Xiang County.

"kill!"

"Ouch!"

In a dense forest, on the official road, a large number of Luoyue people appeared and disappeared, and ambushed through dense forests and bushes.

The Luoyue people shot and killed many Wu soldiers with hidden arrows.

"Don't mess up!"

"Stop!"

"Protect the king!"

The soldiers of the Wu army, who couldn't be defended, quickly formed an formation and blocked the Luoyue people's arrows with their shields.

It's just that these Luoyue people were very cunning. After shooting a few arrows, they moved their positions again. The Luoyue people standing on the branches were as vigorous as apes.

Holding the vines in one hand, they rushed over like swinging, and cut the throats of Wu Jun soldiers with one sword.

"rush!"

"Kill!"

Seeing the robes beside him falling down one after another, the soldiers of the Wu army couldn't bear it, their eyes were red, they clenched their weapons tightly, and rushed towards these ferocious Luoyue people.

I never thought that the Luoyue people were just fighting and retreating, and when the soldiers of the Wu army came back, they didn't get entangled with them.

With a "plop", sometimes they fell into the trap when they stepped on the air, and their bodies were pierced by the sharpened bamboo poles in the pit.

Bleeding!
Not long after, he died of exhaustion due to excessive blood loss.

Such a battle is undoubtedly very cruel.

Most of the soldiers of the Wu army who were conscripted were from the south, and they were good at fighting in the mountains.

It's just that their target is too big, and when the enemy is in the dark, it is inevitable that they will be attacked by surprise, and then cause a lot of casualties!

"Pfft!"

"Shh!"

At the beginning of the hand-to-hand combat, the Luoyue people were beheaded by the Wu army soldiers just like cutting melons and vegetables.

I have to admit that Luoyue people have a fierce personality and are not weak in combat.

It's just that their weapons and equipment are far less sharp than Wu Jun's soldiers.

Among other things, the crude swords, spears, daggers and other weapons could not cut or pierce the armor of Wu Jun soldiers.

Only some stone axes or stone hammers can cause serious injuries to Wu Jun soldiers.

Under the circumstances that the ambush could not get any benefits, the Luoyue people could only fight and retreat, and left this dense forest.

In order to prevent another attack by the Luoyue people, Qingji listened to Sun Li's advice and set up the camp on a mountain that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This mountain peak also has a certain water source, which is enough to supply the army in a short period of time.

Moreover, in order to prevent the Luoyue people from setting fire to the mountain and creating a "burning company camp", Qingji ordered the soldiers to cut down trees and set up fire belts under Sun Li's advice.

This time, when he went to Zhengxiang County to attack the Luoyue people, Qingji only had Sun Li, Bo Tong, Gou Jian, Xiong Zidan and other generals by his side.

Wu Zixu was responsible for leading a group of soldiers and horses to conquer Minyue, and Sun Wu was responsible for leading a part of soldiers and horses to conquer the Yue people in Cangwu County, each performing his duties.
