When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Chapter 267 Yao Fu said to Pan Geng: You should go to the countryside and do as the Romans do.

Xin Qu came back at night and met Wei Shanzhou.

"Long time no see!"

"Haha! Patriarch Xinqu is still so heroic!"

When the two met at the yamen gate, they immediately started chatting and blowing rainbow farts to each other.

Xin Qu praised him for his hard work and hard work, while Wei Shanzhou praised Xin Qu for being handsome and charming.

After another meal, we discussed the number of people Zi Xun would bring and the food that needed to be prepared.

"My lord has brought not many men, ten chariots, fifty soldiers, and three hundred foot soldiers."

Is that not much? !
Yao Ce next to Xin Qu choked.

This is enough to defeat a tribe of more than a thousand people!
"It's true that there aren't many." Xin Qu nodded, "Then I will quickly arrange people to build houses around the courtyard to serve as military camps."

"Okay, then my Lord will definitely do it within half a month at most."

Wei Shanzhou told Xin Qu about Zixun's taboos and some sacrificial rituals that needed to be prepared.

Xin Qu didn't pay attention, but Wu Xiaoye's face turned serious.

After seeing them off, Yao Ce said to Xinqu, "Is it really okay to let so many people around at once?"

"Well, it's not a big problem." Xin Qu shook his head slightly. The location of the courtyard is two kilometers away from Changping City where the Xin family is located.

Even if they let the chariots in, it would be difficult for them to deter the Xin clan.

Because Xin Qu turned the roads in the courtyard into vertical roads, while the Xin family's fields were horizontal.

If the opponent wants to use the full power of the tank, it must turn.

As for the turning point, Xinqu also deliberately raised the road, which means that if you want to turn, you have to climb a slope.

Only when you reach the slope can you reach the avenue with Xin's family.

Then there are fixed ruts in the middle of the road.

It may not be the same width as the chariots of the Shang royal family in the south. Even if it is the same, the Xin family's highway is still vertical, because when Changping was originally designed, Xinqu did not leave much space between the road and the fields in order to rush the construction. big space.

The road is between the river channel and the moat, and its width does not exceed 15 meters.

This distance is not very large, because you also need to include drainage ditches and street trees, and the real amount of road left is just over nine meters.

Then Xinqu also designed it to be a two-lane road with four rows, and the two wings should accommodate more than one meter each for people to walk. The actual usable distance is limited. Even if he can get on two tanks at once and want to turn, We also have to face the problems of the moat's suspension bridge and the roads within the city.

Also, the suspension bridge may not be able to withstand the weight of the chariot, because transportation in Xin's city relies entirely on wheelbarrows, and the chariots were previously transferred to the mausoleum area by Xin Qu to camp, so they were not considered at all during the design. Load bearing issues.

Once the opponent suddenly wants to explode, Xin's arrow tower is not a vegetarian.

Within a stone's throw, hit wherever you point.

So Xinqu wasn't worried at all.

Seeing that Xin Qu was sure of victory, Yao Ce and the others didn't say anything.

After eating and drinking, we went back.

Xin Qu was stopped by Wu Xiaoye: "Sacrifice is one of the habits of the Shang people. When you arrive in a new place, you must use human sacrifices to lay the foundation. They also like to eat human spines. What are your countermeasures?"

Xin Qu was stunned, but he didn't expect Wu Xiaoye to remind him of this.

"It's very simple. As long as Zixun's head is clear and he sees the Xin family's background, he will respect our customs to some extent. Of course, if his head is not clear, I don't mind picking off his head now to let him know.

The death of a royal family member is not necessarily a bad thing for the Shang king in the south.

As for whether they will attack us in the future... we have to wait until they decide the winner. "

"But the problem is, our beliefs are very similar to his."

"It doesn't mean anything." Xin Qu patted her shoulder, sat down next to her and said, "Xiaoye, the King of Shang himself held a jade ax and a bronze ax. These two are essentially the same thing, right? Then Can they represent the same meaning?”

"..."

Wu Xiaoye looked at Xinqu, wondering what he wanted to say.

Xinqu said gently: "So, what if Shang has the same ancestry as us? Do they believe in the emperor? Or are they one of the thousands of rebellious ghosts and gods?
The system I created is not easily broken.

Dayi Shang was very strong, but he was in civil strife.

Zi Xun, who came to us, was essentially looking for a retreat and allies.Since we are looking for a retreat and allies, we won’t point fingers at me stupidly.

If he wants a shake, let me surrender, even if he is not clear-headed.So don't worry, just follow our rules.

What he wants to do is their business. If he violates the rules I set, I will act according to my rules.

If it was half a year ago, I might have tolerated it, but now we don’t have to tolerate it. "

"Okay." Wu Xiaoye was persuaded by Xin Qu and relaxed a little.

……

Soon, the envoy went out, and the Ji family learned that someone from the Shang royal family was coming to patrol the border to reassure them, and then asked them to borrow someone to pick them up, otherwise it would be impossible to guarantee that they would not be beaten.

"Too much bullying!" Ji Xun yelled, "Why does he have guests from the Xin family and wants us to pick them up? No!"

"The Youxin family deliberately bullied others with their power." Ji Shan raised his head and looked at Xu Zhui, "The clan leader cannot leave any trouble behind. The armored soldiers, chariots, and disciples brought by the Shang king's nobles must be elite.

And if we refuse, the other party will inevitably use the Shang King's order to dispatch the Shang kings from the nearby Northland to attack us.

At that time, it will no longer be a problem of the Shang family, but it will most likely involve the Xin family.

The Xin family has already married the Yu family. This time Meng Kuan brought a tribe of [-] slaves from Tufang, adding a group of people to the Yu family. Although these people were said to be Meng Kuan's own, Meng Kuan and If Xin Qu gives birth to an heir, if he becomes the co-owner of the two clans, then... we will face the entire Xin clan.

And if I offend the children of the Shang royal family again this time, I... don't dare to think about the risks to the Ji family in the future. "

"Well..." Xu Zhui nodded slightly and said, "Your idea is right. And you, Xun, think more before you speak. Don't always be so out of your mind and only add more jokes."

"I..." Ji Xun wanted to retort, but was glared at and could only remain silent.

"Go and tell the travelers who have the Xin family, we will pick them up on the way, and we will prepare food and grass to make them feel at ease."

Xu Zhui would not provoke the royal family foolishly, and this was also an opportunity to show off.

The Xin family is becoming stronger and even marrying Tufang, which in itself is going against Dayi Shang.

Xu Zhui felt that this might also be an opportunity to contact Dayi merchants, who might be able to use it later. For example, if the Xin family rebelled, Ji family could act as a vanguard with Dayi merchants, and they could always win a good piece of land. He also killed the Yu family along the way and dominated the entire Haihe River Basin.

So Xu Zhui stopped the war of attrition with the Yu family and took the time to start his own small town and spring plowing.

It's probably early April, and it's raining heavily.

When spring came, all things revived completely. After ten days of walking on land and water, Zi Xun arrived at Ji's territory from Renqiu.

The follow-up was easy. Heading north from Ji's territory, there were water, land and food routes along the way. After only five days of walking, more than 300 people arrived at Qinglong No. [-] Camp in Xiaodianze.

Zixun got out of the car and looked at the Wei brothers and Wei Shanzhou Waigai who had come to greet him. He looked at the ax in surprise: "I didn't expect that your status in the Xin family is really not low."

He bowed his head in accordance with the etiquette designed by Xin Qu at the beginning of this year and said: "Gentleman, the Xin family has been preparing for many days. Your arrival will make the Xin family shine, and I hope you can feel at home.

Of course, there is one more thing that my brother has to explain.

I have the Xin family in Changping who set out from Henan. For decades, they passed through Zhongtiao, passed through Jizhou, made Qiongfang, and settled earthworks. They conquered for Dayi merchants for many years, resulting in a sharp decline in the population, and they had no choice but to marry other clans for a long time. Customs It is no longer the same clan as the Xin family in Henan.

If there is any offense to the customs of the clan next, please don’t blame me, gentlemen.

Do as the locals do when you are in the country, ask about the customs when you arrive, share the beauty and beauties, and the world can be like this. "

Zixun looked at the ax in front of him with great interest. He just said that when he first brought this boy to see him, he felt that his aura and temperament were different for some reason. He was not like an ordinary savage from a small tribe. .

Looking at it now, it’s really a big change.

Of course, more importantly, the chief of the Xin clan in Changping told him bluntly that they were a tribe that was conquering all over the world for the Dayi merchants.

You have to give a certain amount of respect.

At the same time, our population consists of many foreigners, which means that if you still want to restrain us by restraining You Xin and other relatives in Henan, you are making the wrong idea.

We must respect our customs and don't go looking for death on your own.

Otherwise, when the time comes...

"Don't worry, I will respect Mr. Xin Fangchang's wishes and the customs of the Xin family. I remember that one of your customs is very important. There is no need for human sacrifices. I will pay attention to it."

Zixun was willing to show a certain amount of respect, but he would not go so early in the morning. Instead, he glanced at the flag of the Ji family not far away in Xiaodianze: "A person with the surname Qi of the Ji family? Can you please come and talk to me?" "

The ax put away his hand and said: "The banquet has been prepared, please come together."

"Okay. Let's go."
