Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 1042 We must give us a reasonable explanation
Chapter 1051 We must give us a reasonable explanation
The anger that just wanted to rise in his heart disappeared immediately.The High Priest of the Sun God's face was uncertain, so he could only swallow his anger and said: "Misunderstanding, all this is a misunderstanding!"

"Haha, misunderstood!" Wang Ding said: "That's nice to say, if it is said that the leopard killed our people, it is still a misunderstanding, and your army attacked our camp and robbed us of almost [-]% of our wealth. Misunderstanding? Even if it is really a misunderstanding, we have misunderstood you too."

"Ahem..." Meng En really couldn't listen to this kind of unnutritious conversation anymore.He just said indifferently: "Let's do this. Let's consider this incident a misunderstanding, what are you going to do next? Do you want to win the friendship of our Great Wei Empire, or our anger and sword?"

"How many of you are there, what a big tone!" An Aztec officer named Asuman heard Ye Wuji's translation, raised the bronze spear in his hand, and said angrily: "How dare you treat us so honorably?" Believe it or not, I will kill you!" The Aztec warriors behind also drew out their weapons one after another, with angry expressions on their faces.In the eyes of the Aztecs, death is not a terrible thing. They can dedicate everything to the gods, and Tlaloc, the high priest of the sun god, the high priest of the moon god and the high priest of the feathered snake god are almost the same. It is equivalent to the gods of their tribe.The Aztecs could endure failure, wounds and death, but they couldn't bear their gods being insulted by others, insulting the gods, even if they wiped out the whole nation, they would wash away this shame with blood.In many cases on the American continent, the hundreds of years of hatred between the two tribes was caused by a little incident involving the priests of both sides.

As long as the High Priest of the Sun God gives the order, they are willing to break through even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire.On the American continent, there are also two extremes. Their lowest-level tribesmen and fighters are very brave and fearless, but the higher the level and the higher the status, the more afraid of death.Therefore, when they faced the invasion of the Western colonial army, under the leadership of this soft-as-sheep leader, they made unrelenting compromises and concessions, and were eventually destroyed.

But at this time, the High Priest of the Sun God had already been frightened by the devil-like methods of the Wei State Expedition Team. Facing the Wei State Expedition Team, he no longer had the courage and courage.Before Wang Ding gave the order to attack, the High Priest of the Sun God yelled, "Don't be presumptuous, don't be presumptuous, put down your weapons."

Those Aztec soldiers put down their weapons angrily.Meng En said: "We are a family, why must we hate each other so much?"

Hearing this, the High Priest of the Sun God felt a little better.The Aztec Empire is not a small empire in North America, but the military power of this empire is too weak. It would be very stupid to set up such a powerful opponent rashly.After hearing that Meng En's hostility was greatly reduced, he also asked curiously: "We are a family, how is this possible?"

"We are from the same clan!" Meng En said: "More than 2000 years ago, we jointly established a country called Shang State, and later our capital was moved to Yin (ancient place name, today's Anyang). People also called Yin Shang. More than 600 years after the founding of our country, the state of Zhou in the west of our Shang state became stronger, and the Zhou army made a surprise attack on Chaoge, the capital of Yin. Because the main force of the Shang army was fighting against Dongyi at that time, the Shang army that rushed to fight was defeated by the Zhou army. Perish. However, Yin Shang still had 25 troops in Dongyi, and they neither fought to the death with the Zhou army, nor established a new country in Dongyi, but suddenly disappeared without a trace.”

The High Priest of the Sun God said: "The Yin Shang army disappeared, what does this have to do with us?"

"Don't worry, just listen to me first!" Meng En said: "After 25 merchant troops disappeared from the Central Plains, they came to Fusang from the Bering Strait Land Bridge on land (Shan Hai Jing middle refers to America), and here The Olmec civilization was founded. There are three most representative things of the Olmec civilization, that is, the creation of characters, jade carvings, and the belief in the Feathered Serpent God. You all believe in the Feathered Serpent God, but you don’t know the Feathered Serpent God In fact, it is the national totem of our Chinese people."

Speaking of which, Meng En handed the dragon flag of Wei State, which symbolizes the emperor, to the high priest of the sun god, "Our Great Wei is about [-] to [-] miles away from here, oh, by the way, you don't have much impression of [-] to [-] miles away. , it took us more than two years to get here by boat.”

"This doesn't explain anything!" said the High Priest of the Sun God, "Countless tribes here believe in the Feathered Serpent God. Could it be that they are all descendants of Yin merchants?"

"Most of them should be, and some of them are not!" Meng En said: "Back then, the great general You Houxi of the Shang Kingdom led 25 troops with a total of more than 25 troops to serve the king but failed to serve the king, and he was unwilling to surrender to the Zhou Kingdom as slaves, so he came to Fusang Therefore, most of the 25 armies in total will be killed or injured on the road, and only a small part of them will finally reach the Fusang mainland. Di'an people."

The High Priest of the Sun God said: "I don't believe it."

"I can show evidence!" Meng En pointed to the members of the expedition team and said, "We are all Han Chinese, so we have the same black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin. If this is a coincidence, then living customs, weddings and funerals Marriage, art, technology, and language are all strikingly similar to those of the Shang Kingdom. In particular, although our two races are separated by 20 to [-] miles, Ye Wuji learned your language in just over [-] days? Why? If we are not of the same race, are there so many coincidences?"

The "pyramids" in American civilization are very famous.However, unlike the pyramids in Egypt, it is only approximate in a conical shape, but does not have the characteristics of a prismatic shape.But this is completely consistent with the shape of the bucket-shaped mausoleum in China.Based on this, we can also do further analysis, the merchant's totem worship is the "sun".King Shang also called himself "Son of the Sun".

"But we are not the same as you!" The high priest of the sun god was in a trance, and slowly realized Meng En's intentions.

"I've been living in the wilderness for more than 1000 years..." Meng En sighed and said, "He has almost degenerated into a semi-savage, except for hunting, farming, and herding, he can do nothing else...Look at us, our people They are the most intelligent and hardworking nation in the world. We learned how to make pottery more than 7000 years ago, and we knew how to weave and weave exquisite silk more than 5000 years ago, which are exported to all over the world, but you, hey, have forgotten everything.”

The high priest of the sun god is also lamenting, as one of the four most powerful giants in the entire Aztec empire, in fact, he is one of the smartest people in the entire empire, with a mere 600 people, he actually defeated 100 of them successively. Yu Jun, this is not the most terrifying, but they have the ability of gods and ghosts, like the method like thunder, no matter how many troops they have, they cannot withstand their bombardment.It's still the kind of divine fire that can burn even water, what else can't burn?Once they turn against this Wei country, it will be their doomsday.Who knows how many people and how many warships this Wei country has?According to these Wei people, their country has no less than [-] warships (exaggeration), and an army of more than [-] million.Even if these Wei people were defeated regardless of losses, what if their country sent troops over again?What are they resisting?
The high priest of the sun god was a little happy at this time, but also a little scared.The joy is that these people from the Wei Kingdom obviously have the power to destroy them, but they come here with friendship.But the fear is that if they turn against the Wei people, it will be a disaster for the Aztec Empire.

Just when the high priest of the sun god was thinking about it, Meng En said in that deceptive voice: "Whether you are our clansmen or not is up to you to choose. If you sincerely think that you are our clansmen, we can Selflessly taught you how to smelt iron, how to make strong armor and sharp weapons, how to brew wine, how to weave cloth, and also taught you how to read and write..."

Hearing this, the high priest of the Sun God said with a bright face, "Is that true?"

"Of course!" Meng En said neatly: "Did you see that this is our silk, this is our tea, this is our porcelain, and it is much more beautiful than your clay pots. If you As members of our tribe, you can get as much as you need? Only our own tribe can be trusted the most. Come, let me teach you a word... People who are not of my race must have different hearts..."

Although the high priest of the sun god is the most famous wise man in the Aztec Empire, the civilization of the Aztec Empire is lower than that of the Chinese civilization in the Xia and Shang Dynasties. They have begun to develop agriculture and settle down, but they are still in the early slave society. Social Structure.The level of civilization is different, and the level of wisdom bred is naturally also different.This point is unimaginable.

Ran Ming is not yet arrogant enough to conquer the whole world. If he destroys everywhere like a wild beast like the Mongols, Ran Ming can indeed build a powerful empire in a very short period of time, but this empire will also be like the Mongols. Like an empire, like a flash in the pan, what is left to future generations can only be infinite nostalgia and memories, and it may also be mottled with blood and tears.However, using the powerful assimilation ability of Chinese civilization to assimilate the world, especially introducing Ran Ming into the civilization of the pinnacle of the feudal system into the American continent of slavery, will definitely cause special chemical effects.It will definitely take root in this Fusang continent while absorbing some other civilizations.Ran Ming would not be surprised by this.

Unlike the indigenous peoples of Nanyang, the American Indians will not say whether they are descendants of the Shang Dynasty. In fact, they did not have a bloody conflict with the Chinese nation, and they can be integrated into the Chinese nation.

Congling separates the east and the west into two worlds, and the two silk roads of the north and the south come together in Congling, and the Izumo Pass has established a huge gap in Congling.If you don’t go through the Izumo Pass, you need to go northward for more than 3000 miles of mountain roads, or go south for more than 2000 miles of mountain roads. In short, Izumo Pass is the closest and most convenient Silk Road.

However, the most convenient is only relatively speaking. According to the records of later generations of Ran Ming, the valley entrance of Izumo Pass is actually nearly three to four thousand meters above sea level. A capable cavalry.But at this time, the Izumo Pass was completely covered by heavy snow and ice, the snow was more than three feet thick, and the horses moved slowly, but this team of cavalry ignored the danger.

This cavalry was the orderly sent by Liu Ke to the east for help, and the one who accepted the mission of nine lives was Lieutenant Colonel Niu Zijie, secretary of the Anxi Army Soldiers Committee.After going all the way to the west, Captain Niu Zijie was also successfully promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel.Of course, if it weren't for the fact that generals above the rank of colonel are not allowed to concurrently serve on the soldiers' committee, Niu Zijie's credit at this time can already be promoted to colonel.

Liu Ke successively dispatched [-] messengers calling for help, each with as many as a hundred men at the time of departure.However, Niu Zijie was the only one who successfully broke through from Stone City to Izumo Pass.

Niu Zijie looked at the strange Izumo Pass in the ice and snow, and his face suddenly turned black.If he is not mistaken, Izumo Pass has changed hands, because he saw the face of a barbarian in Izumo Pass through the telescope.

Izumo Pass was built at the entrance of Geluoling Valley in the Congling Mountains. Although this grand pass is not as famous as Yanmen Pass and Yumen Pass, it is a rare place in the world that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.The Geluoling Valley, like a magic axe, splits the Congling Mountains from the middle, thus forming the Silk Road connecting Shule to Dawan.

Geluoling Valley runs from northeast to southwest, with a total length of more than 130 miles, while Izumo Pass is built at the west exit. The narrowest part of Geluoling Valley is about [-] steps away. Steep cliffs with no possibility of climbing at all.Since the Congling Mountains are steep from the west, there are almost no stones in the west mountains that can be used to build the Guancheng. These stones are all polished by craftsmen with hammers.The entire Guancheng city wall is about three feet six feet high, and the inner urn city, sheep and horse walls, horse faces, arrow towers, and enemy towers are all available. If there is no tens of times the force, it is impossible to capture it.

This is not the most dangerous. What is even more dangerous is that Izumo Pass also has one main and two auxiliary pass cities. There are two auxiliary passes built on the Baizhang cliffs on the left and right sides of the entire pass city. The city has a "pin" layout. Once the main gate city is attacked, the secondary gates on the cliff platforms on the left and right sides can use long-range weapons for support.

Ordinarily, such a grand pass should not be lost, but Niu Zijie saw it well. The soldiers guarding the main pass city were indeed from Lite.Niu Zijie can even swear that if he sees wrong, he will snap out his own eyeballs and use it as a bully.

The two auxiliary gates each have a company of defenders, while the main gate has four companies of soldiers stationed there. A total of six companies with about [-] soldiers guard the Izumo Pass. It can persist for more than three months, but this Izumo Gate has fallen.In fact, Niu Zijie didn't know that the main reason for the fall of Izumo Pass was from within the army of Wei State.Due to the westward expedition of the Anxi Army, all the ministries of the Western Regions were watching the wind and surrendering, and there was almost no decent war. Therefore, from the senior officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army to the soldiers below, they all felt slack.Especially since it snows, the silk will be frozen by heavy snow for seven months. During this time, even Izumo Pass is rarely seen.However, a problem has arisen. The long-term slack has caused the Izumo Gate garrison to lose their basic vigilance. In particular, the Izumo Gate garrison was formed by drawing backbones from the regular army of the Anxi Army and using the young and strong people of the Western Regions. This garrison camp did not Like other Wei armies, a sound soldier committee organization was established, so corruption occurred in a very short period of time.

The end of the corruption of the army is very fatal. When Yu Wenyi used his affiliated Han Chinese and Lite people in the Western Regions to form a death squad of more than [-] people, disguised as a caravan, and successfully sneaked into Guancheng. Then these members of the death squad suddenly launched an attack in the middle of the night, and Wei Jun came out of the cloud The Guan Shoujun was caught off guard.When the defenders of Izumo Pass reacted, the general situation was over, the gate of the main pass was lost, and about four to five thousand Yuwen National Army poured into Izumo Pass.

Izumo Pass changed hands, which completely cut off the connection between Anxi Army and the Central Plains, but Anxi Army was also in a fatal crisis because of the food in Stone City.

"Secretary Niu, what should we do?" Li Jingshan, the propaganda officer of the Soldiers Committee, said, "How did Izumo pass fall?"

"There's nothing strange about this. Izumo Pass is of little use when there is no accident with our Anxi Army. Only when there is a problem with Anxi Army, the value of Izumo Pass will be revealed!" Niu Zijie said: "At that time, Liu Da The general ordered all the ministries to leave troops to garrison the Izumo Pass, but all the ministries wanted to conquer the west, and no one was willing to guard this place. As a result, they had to draw 120 officers from the four infantry divisions in a hurry, and then recruited some Han Chinese from the Western Regions to set up the Izumo Pass. The guard army is a strengthened battalion. The guard will be Ma Shuchen, who has the rank of major in the supply chain. In the Battle of Beiting, Ma Shuchen was only a lieutenant commander in the supply chain. There were more than one prisoner, so he was exceptionally promoted to be a major of baggage. Although he, Ma Shuchen, also graduated from the Royal Military Academy, he studied baggage management, and he was still a layman in war. If the enemy sent an army disguised as a caravan, he could successfully sneak in and out. Yun Pass, as long as you enter the Izumo Pass, it won't be a surprise to win the Izumo Pass!"

Li Jingshan said: "Why don't we pretend to be a caravan and sneak into Izumo?"

Niu Zijie thought for a while and said: "This matter can never be repeated. After all, it is different from when they came here. They occupied the Izumo Pass for the purpose of isolating things and preventing our Anxi Army from contacting the Central Plains. So at this time, As long as they are Han people, they would rather kill three thousand by mistake and not let one person go, so it is impossible for us to pass through Izumo Pass."

"Then what should we do?" Li Jingshan said: "Should we make a detour and take the southern route? Although it is shorter than the northern route, it will take more than 2000 miles to detour. In this weather, not to mention the danger on the road, it is The speed is enough to make us collapse, and we may not be able to cover the 2000 miles in a month."

"Go one more month?" Niu Zijie said: "Then we might as well draw our swords and commit suicide. Don't say that we don't have enough dry food. Even if we have enough dry food, the Anxi army can't afford to wait. We must go as fast as possible." Pass the Izumo Pass at the right time, and arrive at Hexi to send reinforcements to the Zhenxi Army!"
