Prehistoric: Lord of the Nine Heavens at the Beginning, the Mythical Kunpeng

Chapter 276 Qi worked hard and the battle between Gan and Gan was defeated

............................................................

Contrary to Qi's expectation, Hu's army was actually very powerful.

Originally, in Qi's impression, it should be a very simple matter to use the strength of the whole country to wipe out a tribe.

But when the battle started, it was discovered that Hu's resistance was very fierce.

The soldiers of the Hu clan were very powerful in combat, and their equipment was also very sophisticated. They all used weapons made of bronze. They followed Qi's army and fought back and forth.

For a moment, Qi couldn't easily defeat Youhu's army.

"Hahaha, Qi, you usurp the throne and stand on your own. You are unpopular. Sooner or later you will be defeated by me."

The leader of the Youhu clan, riding on a tall divine horse, laughed and taunted Qi.

Qi Dun was furious. In this case, where does his authority lie?

If you can't even pacify a rebellious tribe, how can you have the dignity to govern Kyushu in the future?

Are those tribes in Kyushu with evil intentions ready to take action because of the Hu clan?

After all, if you can't even handle one tribe, how can you suppress the cooperation of several tribes?

Qi chewed his back molars almost to pieces, and secretly swore that he would defeat the Youhu clan and maintain his authority.

The great battle finally ended when the sun set.

The damage to both sides was very great.

Seeing the camp full of wounded soldiers and the corpses on the ground, Qi's heart was bleeding.

These are all strong men from the human race. If they are not used for fighting, these people can become very good laborers and can grow countless amounts of food.

Countless grains can produce countless people.

As the population increases, the merits belonging to the co-owner of the human race will become more abundant.

This is a huge temptation for Qi, who wants to seize power, accumulate merit, and finally become a saint.

At night, the fat obtained from animals is burned, and the hall is brightly lit.

Qi summoned all the ministers into the main hall.

"Ministers, the Hu clan rebelled, and I punished them on behalf of Heaven. However, the war did not go smoothly. Why is this?"

Because before starting the army, Qi threw an opposing minister into prison, and the rest of the ministers kept silent for fear that they would say something wrong and be thrown into prison by Qi to keep the company of that minister.

For a moment, there was silence in the hall.

"I give you high officials and generous salaries to support you, so that you can help me relieve my worries. I don't want you to remain silent when you encounter problems."

Qi was a little angry and accused the ministers present.

At this time, the ministers had no choice but to remain silent, because if they did not speak, they would be labeled as not sharing the king's worries.

An old, gray-haired minister, holding a cane in his hand, the skin on his face was like dried orange peel, covered with wrinkles, slowly opened his mouth.

Everyone immediately recognized that this person was the prime minister who had accepted his fate. He was the highest-ranking minister among the ministers present.

"Your Majesty, I once heard that it takes less than a day to freeze three feet of ice."

"The Hu family's rebellion today is definitely not a temporary initiative, but must have gone through a long period of preparation."

"As for our hastily formed army due to unpreparedness, some setbacks are inevitable when faced with the Youhu clan who are calculating but not careful."

……

After hearing what the prime minister said, the other ministers could not help but be speechless. Isn't it because the gods are calculated mentally and unintentionally, and the Hu family rebels, that it's because Qi usurped the throne and became independent?

Where was the time to prepare for rebellion?

However, the ministers also knew that saying this could calm Qi's anger very well and prevent him from going crazy on the spot and blaming himself and others. They had to deeply admire the Prime Minister's language skills.

"What the Prime Minister said makes some sense, but it is not comprehensive."

"Gentlemen, do you have any other ideas?"

Qi stood on the stage with an expectant look on his face, hoping that someone would be able to express his feelings.

"Kings."

With the prime minister's suggestion just now, the others have become a little more courageous.

A young minister, handsome in appearance, wearing a dress made of animal skin, with two slender legs exposed, began his statement.

"Your Majesty, I once heard that the Yellow Emperor defeated Chi You in the past. After ninety-nine and eighty-one battles, he finally beheaded Chi You and maintained the stability of the human race."

"Now, we have just fought a battle. Why should the king worry too much about the outcome of this mere battle?"

Qi thought about it and realized that what this young minister said made sense.

It seems that I am indeed a little impatient.

It is true that the position is unfair, but the victory of the war sometimes has nothing to do with whether the position is right or not.

If the position is not correct, the war cannot be won. So how can we explain the defeat of Boyi?

Kai turned his head, returned to his seat, and began to ponder.

The other ministers saw that Qi was silent and did not dare to say more for fear that they would be punished by Qi if they said something wrong.

After a long time, Qi slowly spoke.

"Ministers, we have a lot of land and a lot of people. The reason we failed to win this war is because of my shallow virtues and not educating the people well enough."

"So, I decided that starting from today, I will take time to educate the people while dealing with the Youhu clan's attack."

"We need to teach people to stay close to their relatives and respect their elders."

"Start doing this from today. I will check your results in educating the people regularly and irregularly."

After saying that, Qi stood up from the chair and left the hall.

When the other ministers saw Qi leaving, they also left the main hall and began the task assigned by Qi to educate the people.

The battle between Qi and Youhu is still going on.

Qi commanded the war during the day, reviewed the memorials submitted by the ministers at night, and promoted the methods of educating the people to be good ministers.

Convict ministers who are unfavorable in educating the people and hand them over to relevant officials.

After several months of hard work, the face of the human race has taken on a completely new look.

Finally, a year after Youhu's rebellion, Qi's troops finally succeeded in defeating Youhu's troops.

Several leaders of the Youhu clan were also captured alive by Qi.

In order to let Qi let go of the captured clan leaders, the Youhu family came to Yu County with livestock and food to apologize to Qi, hoping that Qi could let his clan leaders and people go.

Qi did not kill them all, but released the clan leader of the Youhu clan back.

However, Kai was not a saint. In his later years, he made many mistakes.
