History of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Chapter 234 I am a barbarian

Why?

Chu Jun was in a daze.

"How could I, Chu, shoot and kill Lord Deng?"

There seems to be speculation.

Chu Jun asked urgently: "Why, who ordered the shooting!"

The armored soldiers who came to report were trembling.

"My Majesty had an order before to protect the people of Chu to prevent ruffians from causing trouble."

"Then Mr. Deng came to Chu, and with a group of people all dressed in commoners, he suddenly attacked me in Chu. Our army thought it was..."

The armored soldiers were sweating profusely and prostrated themselves in the palace.

"Report!"

I heard from outside the palace that a messenger was coming urgently!

"Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven, and the princes, on the grounds that Chu killed Lord Deng, they want to gather troops again to attack Chu!"

what!

Chu Jun's figure flickered, and veins popped out in his clenched fists.

"Okay, okay, I, Chu, will have to endure the pain of Yang Yue!"

Baoxiang's death, Chu used this reason to take advantage of the emperor's power to capture Yangyue.

At this time, Deng Jun's death was so similar.

But it was Chu who suffered.

"Hahaha, people in this world are not fools, but they are willing to pretend to be fools, Emperor!"

"Oh my God!"

"Let's go and find out which country has the will to form an alliance with the Emperor!"

Tyranny flashed in Chu Jun's eyes.

Chu State cannot afford to be hurt.

Hundreds of years of savings in the Chu State were all turned into a swamp. If Feng Yunyu hadn't used animistic techniques to turn the swamp into paddy fields, so as to grow food and water, the Chu land would be enriched again.

At this time, he, Lord Chu, was afraid that he would go crazy and die in the palace, so he went to question his ancestors.

Can……

"Although our Chu country is full of water and swamps, struggling for food, and will have to reduce its military strength in the future, at this moment, our Chu country's soldiers are not weak at all!"

Chu Jun ordered: "Call me, General Chu, to prepare for war!"

……

As the incident unfolded, Deng Jun's death shocked all countries.

His death is very similar to the praise, but because of the emperor's pressure, who dares to say?

Who will expose it?

Who dares to believe it?

Some people are silent and no one is silent.

But the emperor and these princes have forgotten it, maybe they misunderstood.

At this time, the land of Chu was damaged, the people of Chu were all alive, and the emperor and the army of the princes were suffering from the flood. Is this really a good time to raise troops?

Is it possible that the emperor thought that when Xiang Baoxiang died in the Chu State, it was because the people of Chu had committed sin on themselves, so he was arrested without mercy?

war!

"Mr. Chu, what would Fengzi think if he knew about it?"

Qu Yuan was shocked that Chu Jun wanted to take advantage of the navy to cross the Han River to attack those countries that were allied with him!

Use offense as defense, plunder the resources of these countries, return the Chu State to its former glory, and take a big step closer - annexing the Han River countries!

Annexing the Han River kingdoms was a path Chu had never considered before Bao Xiang's death.

Chu originally wanted to open up barbarians and expand Chu, but now, the emperor has gone too far to bully the Chu people!

Treat Chu as a barbarian...

Chu Jun laughed.

His eyes were full of determination.

"Fengzi, I will explain it to you. Qu Yuan is the great commander. This battle is very important to Chu. Please protect Fengzi so that he will not be disturbed by evil people."

The chief minister of a country, but at this time, he was responsible for protecting Feng Yun.

Qu Yuan was disappointed.

Listen again.

"In addition to guarding, I also hope that the chief minister will think about how I, Chu, do not respect the Queen of Zhou, and how to administer it. We can first draw up an official system."

Qu Yuan was shocked.

Disrespect Zhou?

This is not what the common people say, but what the king says. Could it be that the Chu State really does not respect Zhou at all?

"Isn't this what you want?" Chu Jun looked at Qu Yuan.

"Fengzi said that the Chu people respected their ancestors and found it. This is the belief of the Chu people. Giving it to Dazai is a sign of trust in Dazai."

"Your Majesty..." Qu Yuan lowered his head. Chu Jun was determined at this time and was beyond his power to persuade.

However, the feeling in his heart should not be like this!

This is contrary to his dream of Chu State!

"My lord, please don't be influenced by the emperor's illusions. At this moment, Chu State should stick to its moral principles and find out the death of Lord Deng!"

Chu Jun heard the sound and sneered.

Not to mention that the situation has reversed at this time, let’s just say, will the emperor admit his guilt?

Thinking of this, Mr. Chu felt sad again.

Same sin, but different people, treated differently.

"There's no need to say anything. Come and take Qu Yuan down with you. I need to discuss the war with the officials."

"promise!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Qu Yuan shouted, but Chu Jun ignored him and ignored him.

……

"Woo!" The war horn roared and played the smoke of gunpowder!

The state of Chu has the advantage of having a naval force. At this time, the land of Chu is full of water and swamps, which are interconnected and interconnected. The convenience of traveling on the water and the speed of the army are unheard of.

At this moment, among the various countries, their defenses were exhausted because of the alliance with the Emperor.

"The emperor made an alliance with Deng Guo. Among the E, Qian, Shen, and Zeng states, they were the most active..."

The king of Chu ordered: "Fight against incorruptible Sima, you will go straight down from Yangyue to attack Qianguo!"

"promise!"

"Sima Zhaoyang, you and Xiang Yan will cross the Han River with a naval force and attack the state of Zeng!"

"..."

"Sima Zhaoyang?" Chu Jun stared directly at Zhaoyang.

"Zhaoyang, promise, I will do my best to win the land for Chu."

Chu Jun nodded.

Zhaoyang, like Qu Yuan, is close to Feng Yun, but Zhaoyang is decisive and Qu Yuan is emotional.

Here, the emperor could trust Zhaoyang, who had already promised.

Then he ordered.

"Jingyang, you and Cheng Zhiyu will go to the Gu Kingdom to close the Chu Kingdom and push it into the Gu Kingdom to eliminate the threat from this place."

Valley is above Andi.

It goes without saying what everyone thinks.

If we attack the Valley Kingdom, how will we arrange it for An Di?

"Andi... Fengzi is Chu Liangduo. After he captures it, he will return the Gu Kingdom to Andi. At the same time, Gudi will arrange Chu troops to protect Andi!"

"What about Fengzi?" Sun Shuaoben didn't say a word. He knew that he, the Prime Minister, could not interfere with some matters, but Feng Yun's matter, every word and deed, was a big deal to the Chu State.

Feng Yun was practicing magic for the Chu land to restore life to the Chu land.

But the king of Chu wanted to send troops... Although it was because of the emperor's wrong strategy that he had a reason to attack the vassal states.

But this will still become an unethical thing and even drag down Feng Yun's reputation.

However, this battle has greatly benefited the Chu Kingdom for hundreds of years. As a monarch with great ambitions and a pioneering heart, this is an opportunity that must be grasped.

When it comes to morality and the future of Chu State, Lord Chu's choice has always been clear.

But Feng Yun...

Lord Chu knew better than anyone else what Feng Yun had done for Chu.

Knowing that Feng Yun is Chu, he has no selfish intentions, or in other words, no selfish intentions towards humanity.

"I have an agreement with Feng Yun. First, the slaves of the Chu Kingdom can be redeemed and become common people."

"Second, common people who are talented can also become officials of the Chu State."

This statement shocked most people in the DPRK.

"Your Majesty..." Someone wanted to speak, but was stared at by Mr. Chu, and that person did not dare to continue.

"Everyone, please remember that when attacking other countries, you must uphold humanity and attack for the development of Chu State. Do not hurt innocent people."

"Remember, humanity cannot be violated!"

Lord Chu scanned the faces of each courtier.

"After Fengzi comes out of seclusion, I will ask for forgiveness, and I will shoulder all the sins!"

After all the words were said, the state of Chu was moved.

A general makes a surprise attack with a well-prepared army to attack a country that is tired and scattered and has few soldiers.

How can we not win?

"Report, the incorruptible Sima conquered the country of Hubei!"

"Report, Zhaoyang Sima defeated Qian State and approached Zeng State!"

"Report, Jingyang Pioneer and Ziyu Pioneer, attack Gu Kingdom!"

"Report..."

The Kingdom of Zhou Li was shocked.

The Chu State made a surprise attack. At this time, the allied countries were unable to stop it.

The troops of the Hui Alliance hurriedly retreated, but the country had been occupied by the Chu State.

If there is a city wall, look at it and sigh, even if your anger attacks your heart, you will fight hard to attack it.

But the voices of defeat are also endless.

The people of Chu were originally angry with the Lord of Chu because of Baoxiang's death, but the Lord of Chu was the king of the country, and they were the people of Chu.

Hou Baoxiang's death was calmed down after Feng Yun properly handled it.

At this time, the emperor used the second "death of Bao Xiang" as an excuse to ally with many countries and attack Chu. The Chu people were naturally in high spirits, and this was an opportunity to vent.

"No, Emperor!" Qian Guojun fled in defeat, crying and kneeling.

"I went to the ancestral hall of the country and was smashed by the Chu people!" What!

Destroying people's ancestral halls is something only barbarians can do.

When King Wu of Zhou destroyed Shang Zhou, he would also give the Shang remnants their homeland and establish the Song state to offer sacrifices to them and preserve etiquette.

At this time, the Chu State destroyed Qian, but did not delay his sacrifice!

Chaos!

The emperor frowned, his face was full of anger, but his eyes were full of disbelief!

"Chu is a barbarian country, how abominable!"

The emperor stood up and was about to give the order when he heard the soldiers coming to report.

"Sir, the Chu people have captured Gu and Qian, and now both armies are coming to Deng!"

"puff!"

The emperor spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Let's go back to Zhou and order the princes from all over the world to ally with Zhou and raise Chu together..."

The emperor fainted, everyone around him was shocked, the doctors panicked, and the soldiers trembled. For a time, the alliance between Deng and Deng was completely broken in the panic.

The emperor was also quickly brought back to Zhoudu.

The South is in chaos!

Many countries were being quickly destroyed by the Chu State, and it seemed that all the generals were rushing to attack, taking advantage of the empty states and overwhelming power.

Among these countries, only large countries like Shen and Zeng could build armies to resist the Chu soldiers.

For a time, the Chu State controlled most of the Shennong Basin north of the Han River, and most of the land that once followed it.

The area south of the Han River, from the mouth of Jianghan to the south of Fengze, all belonged to Chu.

Here, when Zeng Guo resisted Chu State, he also cursed constantly!

"The people of Chu are inhumane!"

And Chu Jun conquered it himself!

Faced with Zeng Guo's gesture, he burst out laughing!

"I am a barbarian!"

The voice of the King of Chu seems to follow the iron hooves of the Chu State and spread to other countries.

Everyone in the world knows this, and all the countries are stunned and panicked.

What is the difference between barbarians and barbarians in the fire of civilization?

This is the problem of Sui Renzu.

But Sui Renzu himself couldn't answer it.

At this moment, Lord Chu could not answer the question and could only go with the flow. Since all the emperor's countries thought that Chu was a barbarian, then he, Chu, should be treated as a barbarian!

They gathered together to form the Kingdom of Chu and established a foundation of barbarians that even the emperor did not dare to anger.

Lives in Yingdu.

"King Ceremony!"

Make the king!

But in January, Chu Jun decided to make him king.

At this time, due to the successive victories of the Chu State, a large amount of materials were transported to the Chu region. The domestic situation reversed, and the people of the country did not have to worry about food. At this moment, the Chu State was richer than before.

However, in the midst of the joy at this moment, every time someone said the word "Fengzi", it was like their throats were being strangled, making it difficult to speak.

"Fengzi will not approve of Chu Ren's behavior..."

"Chu people?"

"Aren't you from Chu?"

"Yes, you were brought up by a slave, but the king said that if you were born in Chu land, you are a Chu person!"

"Now, all the places conquered can be called Chu Land by the emperor."

In Chu State, such voices are heard endlessly.

There seems to be a force at work.

However, the second agreement that your Majesty promised Feng Yun has not been implemented for a long time.

Some dignitaries from Chu State secretly laughed: "Common people will always be common people, only we powerful people will always be powerful people, and the emperor is also a powerful person. How can you not understand?"

The remarks were silently approved by most nobles, and for a while, even the king of Chu ordered Sun Shuao to use common people as officials.

But it was also because of the entrenched big and small dignitaries in Chu State that they could not implement it.

"Where is Mr. Chu?" Sun Shuao hurried back to Yingdu from other places.

Hearing that Lord Chu wanted to be crowned queen, he was in a panic.

I have never heard that I have a country with Zhou rites. If I establish myself as the king, I will risk great disgrace from the Chu country.

The consequences will be punished.

"Your Majesty!"

When he saw the king of Chu, Sun Shuao bowed to him and asked the king of Chu to withdraw his proposal to become king.

"Why, I am not as good as the other barbarian countries. The barbarian countries have many kings, but when I come here, I can only continue to guard the Viscount of Zhou Li?"

Chu Jun was slightly angry.

"Your Majesty, you are blinded by the constant victory at this time. Things are not that simple."

"Only when the Chu State is hindered and cannot get any closer can we understand the state of the Chu State."

"Isn't it better to think about becoming king when the time comes?"

"Humph." Chu Jun shook his head, his eyes dim.

"Sun Shu'ao, you should understand that when is the time when Chu will be loved the most and there will be no way to get closer."

Sun Shu Aoleng, of course he knew when.

"Report, great joy, most of the swamps outside the city are almost dry!"

"All kinds of plants are growing luxuriantly, and we can have a good harvest this autumn."

The art of making everything animistic is done!

But Chu Jun and Sun Shuao were not smiling at all.

"Send an order to the generals in various places to wait for orders on the ground, build defensive fortresses, and stop attacking. The Chu Kingdom has won this battle."

"promise!"

After Jia Bing left, Chu Junfang wrote a secret letter and handed it to Sun Shuao.

"This is a secret order from Mr. Sun Shuao. The order can be announced tomorrow."

tomorrow?

What is the king going to do?

"Let's go!" Chu Jun strode out with high spirits.

As he walked out of the hall, he headed towards the altar that had been set up.

"Today, the king-conferring ceremony will be held!"

The king-conferring ceremony has been prepared for many days, but Chu Jun only held it at this time without any warning.

But all parties are prepared and have been looking forward to it for a long time.

Being granted the title of king is a great benefit to all the nobles of Chu State.

Under the throne, one can enjoy three princes, all ministers are noble, and their houses can be protected by their seals, which will not stop the court.

But being crowned a king also combines grudges and grudges, and there will naturally be grudges and grudges.

This resentment comes from among the countries and in the heart of the emperor.

"Woo!" The long and huge horn whistled, playing Chu Di.

All the officials and scholars came running one after another.

At the same time, several secret letters, carried by Chu Jun Anzi, flew out and left Yingdu.

……

"Chu conquered all the kingdoms and was granted the title of king today?"

Feng Yun rode on the nine tails and looked at Qu Yuan.

Qu Yuan looked sad and nodded in silence.

Feng Yun patted Nine Tails.

"Let's go."

When Qu Yuan heard the sound, he looked at Feng Yun's face in surprise.

But Feng Yun Gubo remained motionless and seemed indifferent to this matter.

"Don't look at it, I'm angry in my heart."

"Fengzi, where are you going?"

Qu Yuan stepped forward.

Feng Yun lowered his eyebrows.

"Give me a gift, King Shang of Chu."

"Send it to King Shang of Chu?"

Qu Yuan was puzzled, but Feng Yun had already rode Jiuwei and left quietly.

All the way.

And Mr. Chu, standing on the altar, seemed to be waiting for someone.

"Fengzi, you are here."

look into the distance.

Feng Yun came riding nine tails.

"Hold up!" Chu Jun raised his arms.

The scholar-bureaucrats who had been waiting below were startled and hurriedly followed.

"Lift!"

boom!

The torch is held high to establish the fire of Chu.

"I, Chu, come after Zhu Rong, and the fire of protecting humanity is passed on to the people of Chu, and it will never end..."

"I, Chu, have a mysterious way of doing things. I show respect for my ancestors and protect everyone in Chu. I will never stop..."

Because of these two sentences, the dignitaries and scholar-bureaucrats of Chu State below were shocked.

Being crowned a king is like rebuilding a country!

What does it mean to take this statement as the founding motto of the country?
