A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 74 The Beginning of Hegemony
Although there were not many princes who came to the alliance, and although they had already prepared themselves, Marquis Qi was still somewhat disappointed.

Guan Zhong persuaded: "Your Majesty, since the establishment of Zhou Dynasty, for more than two hundred years, only the Son of Heaven has the right to make an alliance. Your Majesty's first alliance has these princes presiding over you. This is a very good thing."

"As for the big countries like Lu, Wei, and Zheng, they won't surrender until you show enough strength."

"As for Tan Guo, I will attack him in the name of disrespecting the royal family. When you fled in distress, Tan Guo neglected you, just to use this to avenge the past!"

Yunyuan.

The princes of the seven countries gathered here.

Qihou sat on the main seat, and the other princes sat around.

"Since King Wu established the Zhou Dynasty and divided the world into feudal lords, for more than two hundred years, our ancestors have gone through many hardships, and we are here today. However, there are many people in the public offices of the countries who are greedy for pleasure and do not respect Zhou etiquette, resulting in endless chaos in the public office. To avoid disasters from Ju. Today, the first thing I want to say when you are here today is to respect the rituals of Zhou."

"Concubines are not allowed to replace wives, concubines are not allowed to replace concubines, and wives are not allowed to participate in politics, so as not to cause turmoil in the public office."

"In addition, King Wu divided up the world, promoted Xia Jun and barbarian people, and changed barbarians into Xia. All countries should follow. Bang Zhou countries have fallen into barbarians, and they are willing to take the lead in helping them and sending troops to help them restore their country.

The King of Assassins' Southern Expedition is gone, Huaiyi is strong and prosperous, and the princes of the world have raised their troops, so they are able to preserve the country. Today, the emperor values ​​it alone. He presides over the alliance, elects the leader, and helps the world! "

What the Marquis of Qi said is very clear. When there are problems in the vassal states, one is internal strife, and the other is foreign enemies.As long as these two problems are solved, it will be difficult for the vassal states to perish.

Naturally, these princes also understand, but how to maintain this system requires a leader.Obviously Qi Guo wants to be the leader of this alliance.

When deciding to participate in this meeting, the six princes had already prepared themselves. After hearing what Qihou said, Ju Guo immediately expressed support for Qihou as the leader of the alliance.

"Everyone, Marquis Qi is an in-law of the Zhou family. In those days, Grand Duke Wang assisted the three generations of emperors with great prestige. Since Marquis Qi came to the throne, Qi has been strong and prosperous, attracting worldwide attention. His victory over Ji Guolai in five years shows its strength. I recommend Qi Marquis alone. For the ally!"

"Juhou's words are deeply taken for granted. Qihou has a broad mind. At the beginning, Guan Xiang intercepted and killed Qihou. Qihou loved his talent and couldn't bear to kill him. He worshiped him as the country's prime minister. In five years, the Qi State prospered. I can't match this kind of mind. With such a broad mind, Marquis Qi must be a king of benevolence and righteousness, and he is willing to regard Marquis Qi as the lord of the alliance." As soon as Juhou finished speaking, Tanhou immediately appeared in agreement.

Tan State, Ju State, and Qi State are close neighbors. In the past, they all had to face the pressure from Huaiyi, Dongyi, and Lai.And there is a stronger Huai country.It can almost be said that the offensive and defensive alliance will naturally support Qi.

However, Cao Guo, Chen Guo, and Xing Guo were weak and weak, and it was impossible to sit on the position of leader, so they immediately decided to support Qi State.With the support of these vassal states, Qihou became the leader of the alliance without accident.

"The Marquis of Qi is expected by everyone, please also take the position of leader!"

Qihou was very happy to see that all the princes supported him.But even if you want to be the leader, you need to be humble.

"I have only ascended the throne for six years, and I have made great achievements in governing the country with the help of Zhong Xiang. I should not be praised by you. Now the alliance with the princes is to get rid of the barbarians and save the countries. I still have something lacking and cannot succeed. ally."

"Qihou! You can make the state of Qi prosperous and strong in six years, and conquer the state of Lai. If you don't take the position of the leader of the alliance, who else in the world can take the position? Please ask the Marquis of Qi to be the leader of the alliance!" Caohou stepped forward respectfully Speaking of it, several other princes responded one after another.

Only then did Marquis Qi assume the position of leader.

Then everyone climbed to the rammed-earth high platform, killed three animals to sacrifice to heaven, and then drank their blood as an alliance, expressing that they would respect Qihou as the leader of the alliance, protect the Xia, respect the emperor, and wipe out the barbarians.

Zijue looked at the grand scene in front of him in the void. In his eyes, Bang Zhou's destiny, which had begun to weaken, began to recover in another form.The rise of Qi State transferred Bangzhou's destiny to Qi State.

This turned into an attack by Bang Zhou Tianming on Huai Kingdom Tianming.

After seeing this, Zijue had already anticipated the difficulties Huaiguo would face next, and immediately used the hundreds of thousands of luck accumulated over the years to draw a lottery to prepare for the next siege of Qiguo.

After completing the alliance, Qihou did not let the other princes leave, but called all countries to send troops as the leader of the alliance.

"Tan Guo and Sui Guo were entrusted by the emperor to Fang Guo, but they did not respect the emperor, did not listen to the emperor's edict, and did not come to the alliance. As the leader of the alliance, can you see that this kind of state that does not respect the emperor continues to exist?
This is an insult to our oath!You should go together with Gu to punish Tan Guo and Sui Guo, this is in line with the Bangzhou system! "

The countries that came to join the alliance also responded, but the troops dispatched by the countries were not many, only a few thousand, and the main force was Qi.After all, this is the first action after the alliance. If Qi can really do what it says, these vassal states will be convinced.

Qihou had already made preparations. After the order was issued, he immediately summoned an army of [-], and then formed a seven-nation coalition with the princes who came to the alliance.

After the princes of the other six countries saw the army of Qi State, they were all shocked by the strong army of Qi State. These [-] troops were all elites who had participated in the attack of Ji State and Lai State. A suffocating momentum gathered.

Seeing that Qi State has such a strong army, this also made the princes of the six countries respect Qi Hou even more.He obeyed Qihou's order.

Marquis Qi was not unhappy that the Six Kingdoms had not recruited many troops. Originally, they were used to demonstrate against Tan and Sui countries this time. Without the participation of other princes' troops, this demonstration was considered complete.

Immediately, Qi Hou led the army of the seven countries and came to Tan Guo.Tan Guo was very annoyed when he learned that Qi State was coming to attack, and Qi Hou scolded: "When you were in trouble, I, Tan Guo, took you in. Now that you are the king of Qi, you don't want to be grateful, and you even lead an army to attack. !"

Qi Hou said: "You disrespected the Zhou family, disrespected the king's order, and did not come to the alliance. These three crimes are also. At the beginning, it was difficult for you to be alone. You satirized and ridiculed wantonly and did not enter the city alone. This is what you call kindness. ? A shameless villain!"

Immediately ordered the army to attack, the country of Tan is small, but it is the country of the viscount, how can it stop the army of Qi.When the army of Qi State learned that Tan State had insulted the monarch so much, they took the lead one by one, and Tan State's soldiers fell one by one.Soon he was defeated by Qi State's tide of attacks, and finally had to retreat to the city.

Seeing this situation, Tan Hou sent an envoy to admit defeat, but Qi Hou refused at all. If Tan Guo was let go, how would he show his prestige?
Immediately ordered the army to continue to attack, and it took only a few days to break through Tan Guo and capture Tan Hou.Then the Marquis of Qi destroyed his country and moved to Tan Guogong to enter Qi.After destroying the state of Tan, the Marquis of Qi was in high spirits and immediately led an army to attack the state of Sui.

The strength of Sui State is much stronger than that of Tan State, but there is still no resistance against Qi State, let alone the coalition forces of other princes from the six countries?Soon the country was destroyed by the coalition forces.

In the sixth year of Duke Huan of Qi, Qi and Cao, Ju, Tan, Chen, Xing, and Cai met in Yunyuan, and Duke Huan was appointed as the leader of the alliance. If Tan Sui did not come, they would all be destroyed. This is the beginning of this overlord. "Historical Records Qi Family"
