In the end, after both sides had rested, they would line up on the open plain, swear to each other, read out each other's crimes, fight with each other, and the envoys from both sides return to the camp, and then beat the drums to attack.If one side beats the drums and marches, and the other side does not respond, they cannot directly attack the formation on the opposite side. They can only scare them, retreat, and beat the drums again.

After a round of charge, the two sides need to gather their teams, regroup, and then charge again. It's like a turn-based game. In a sense, the word "round" might have come from this way.

Therefore, there is a saying of "going vigorously, declining again, and exhausting three times". If it is really unruly, Cao GUI will not be given face at all, and the heavy chariot will be used as the vanguard to directly crush. The infantry formation at that time lacked super long guns and the like. Under the anti-impact equipment, instead of declining again, it rose directly in one go.

Just kidding, if you don't follow the rules, you can't stand the chariot that has reached the maximum speed while still standing there. Because he was very picky about the battlefield environment, he was eliminated by the more flexible cavalry.

[Then Qi Jiguang moved the cannon up, giving a show that the age of adults has changed but not completely changed]

Of course, if you don't fight at all, although you can consume the opponent's physical strength and vigor tactically, you can easily be ridiculed strategically, and even your own princes and nobles may not be so obedient.

Finally, after the lengthy foreplay was completed, Zi Shou thought he could go straight in and hit Huanglong, but the result was not enough, because both sides had to send infantry and coolies to remove the stones from the battlefield, otherwise it would be unfair——Zi I feel that the nobles on both sides are still afraid of falling to death. If they are captured, it is only a matter of ransom, and falling to death is a big deal.

It was not until the middle of the day that the two sides began to officially enter the state of preparing to fight. I have to say, it's really fucking fair, the sun is in the middle, and the eyes of either side will not be dazzled, and then the fight will begin.

Zishou and the leader on the opposite side are not at the front, but in the middle. On the one hand, his road drum is the command signal of the whole army. If he is in the front, the drum sound is easily mixed with the drum sound on the opposite side. The command.

On the other hand, not every Shang king is called Zishou, and not every Zishou can use a fucking lightsaber that is neither scientific nor magical. died.

The road drums sounded, and Xilai, who held the reins, waved his whip. The six horses sped up and galloped, and the strong wind beat their faces. Take the chariot to form an array of sharp points.

Standing behind the driver, the nobleman opened his bow and released the arrow. At this time, archery was a compulsory course for noblemen. It was a subject that gentlemen had to learn until the Song Dynasty. Samurai guards held spears and shields, and when the chariots crossed, they beat the opponent Hook off the car or drag it to your own car.

The former is naturally sent, while the latter is captured. Most of the warriors in this position are skilled in martial arts. They can accurately hook the opposite warrior off the chariot or directly smash the sky cap, and can also pull the opposite noble into the chariot. Come up, rather than just get killed, and lose a large amount of ransom.

Feeling the wind blowing towards his face, Zishou had to say that drag racing is really the favorite activity of men, especially drag racing with a large group of people, even a large group of people are driving chariots and racing, and there is a group of tough men on the opposite side who are also rushing. When you come racing, the excitement is really unmatched by any sports, especially if you are driving a convertible without a windshield.

Before the car array staggered, Zishou pulled out Xiaolian and drove directly into the second gear. The golden sword light rose like the morning sun and shone in all directions. There was a blur in front of the front driver of the Su tribe, who instinctively reined in and slowed down. Unable to slow down, they collided with each other immediately, and Shang's driver didn't care at all because his back was facing Guanghua, and just passed by.

The sword-wielding warrior swung the long-axe and smashed the brain of the opponent's driver. With a grab, he pulled the nobleman in front and dragged him to his car, while most of the enemies didn't struggle much.

"Om!" The chariot passed by, Zishou didn't like to capture prisoners, and felt that he probably didn't have the ability to capture prisoners at high speed, so he used an extremely rogue style of attack, placing the blade at an angle , About 1 second before the wrong body, the light blade spat out, and with a click, the opponent's flag was broken and the wheel was cut in two.

Don't even think about reacting to this, and it's basically effortless for Zishou, because you only need to straighten the blade that is slightly tilted backward, and the light blade will be blessed by the speed of the chariot, like a hot knife cutting butter. The banner with the car was cut.

As soon as the wheel flag was folded, the chariot would be paralyzed, and the driver of the convoy behind would avoid this unlucky guy, and the pawns behind the chariot formation would cheerfully come up to tie up people.

In just one round, the Su tribe was completely defeated, the flag waved backwards, and the soldiers retreated. The rule at this time was that when the other party retreated, they would enter the pursuit battle. There were very few rules at this time.

However, after chasing the opponent's main formation, they can no longer continue chasing and killing. Instead, they have to retreat to the position before the start of the battle and prepare to start the second round. There is no reasonable excuse to destroy his country, and in this era, there is no reasonable excuse, for example, it is really difficult to directly use force to destroy the country without paying tribute to Baomao.

Because the rules of the battle between various nobles and gentlemen are there, if this opening is opened, the vassal states under him alone will have to attack each other endlessly, so they cannot directly eliminate the country, but it is no different from eliminating the country.

Because of the burden of the ransom, and because the lower-class Chinese were taken away by a large number of captives, if they were defeated, it would be difficult to deal with the barbarians around them, and there was no other way except to become a vassal of Shang.

In the evening, Su asked to surrender, and he voted very quickly. The two sides exchanged prisoners before the battle, and paid ransom for those who could not be exchanged. In the end, Su offered a hostage and paid tribute.

As for those prisoners of war who had no money to redeem themselves (mainly people from the other country), they could only be escorted to Huimodu as human sacrifices, while those who had money to redeem themselves paid money to redeem themselves and went home.

The war mode at this time is completely different from that of later generations, so some future generations find it unimaginable confusion, which is nonsense at this time. For example, the war lasted for a long time, why did they not eat Su’s grain for the winter, why did they all die when the road was blocked by heavy snow? Light.

Because these are not the standing army and professional soldiers of later generations, they need to return to their fief as soon as possible after the battle, otherwise, even if they survive the winter on Su’s grain, when they go back, your house will have been cleaned by wildlings.

Not to mention the Shang and Zhou dynasties, even in the Han and Tang Dynasties, a combat operation in a war can only last two or three months at most, otherwise there will be insufficient food and grass, or the rear will delay the farming season, or everyone will have no morale. beat.

Not to mention the problem of raising food, Xiaobai always think that the enemy's food is piled up in supermarkets like later generations, and they only need to reach out to grab it, and they will be automatically and quickly, without road transportation. The various villages, towns, and cities in the territory of the Soviet Union were gathered together and turned into military rations for the army.

Therefore, not to mention the Shang and Zhou dynasties, even the Han and Tang Dynasties could not guarantee the survival of the army abroad when the roads were blocked by heavy snow. Annihilation of the entire army was the only end. Food is not piled up on the side of the road, just waiting for you to eat it.

Heavy snow blocking the road not only makes the army unable to move, but also means that neither the enemy nor the enemy can gather the scattered food all over the territory, and rob the food stored in the nearest few villages and tribes alone... probably when you starve to death. It doesn't make sense to push it back for a day or two.

You know, before Zishou went on the expedition, it took half a month to prepare food around Modu alone. Before that, the princes from all over the country took longer to prepare. They are all marching on their own territory and ordering the countries along the way to provide military supplies.

If you really want to scatter ducks to rob on the territory of the Sioux tribe, the food you rob may not be enough to consume on the road. For things like food transportation, half a hundred miles is the basic common sense in ancient warfare-that is, the transportation of a catty of food A hundred miles away, the transporter can eat half of it directly.

Therefore, many of the so-called military common sense of later generations are false at this time, unless Zishou develops truck transportation or develops a shipbuilding industry, and the combat area is within the radiation range of the water area, using water transportation.

Are you kidding me? He doesn't even have a few wheelbarrows at the moment. Grain is collected and transported slowly by people resisting horses and ox carts. It can be regarded as safe and sound along the way without delay. If there is heavy snow, then carry a hammer, and you can get out of the camp to count as your physique.

Moreover, the transportation team cannot be less, and at least 1/3 of the load must be spent to carry bow and arrow weapons. Why?Because in this era, it is not an era of good law and order in later generations. A food transport team of two or three people walks on the road with bare hands. Are you delivering food to wild men, or are you giving food to wild beasts?

Emperor Xin Si Si Siqiu, Ke Su in Xing (the location of the Su is now in the Suzhuang area of ​​Xingtai City), there is Su Fu, sending cattle, horses, grains, and fragrant wood, and then the inscription of Daji's daughter - Di Xin Si Si Si Fang Ding (Note 1).

In the camp of the merchant army, Su’s ransom and tribute were sent one by one. There were a large number of cattle and horses, as well as exquisite grain, especially the incense sandalwood used to worship the gods. In addition, there were many other breeding of livestock.

And in order to show goodwill, Yousu also sent the son of the clan chief as a hostage. If they dared to rebel, this son would be sent. Since he was beaten so badly during the day, he thought he could struggle a bit, so he didn't vote so much. Thoroughly, strive for better treatment.

But ever since Zishou took out Xiaolian and released a Sun Fist, Yousu had no other ideas, and he threw it more thoroughly than in history. Even the licking method made Zishou feel a little uncomfortable.

From the standpoint of Su Hu, if he loses after a fight, then Yousu is only nominally surrendering to Shang. Although he needs to continue to make offerings and bear the signs of the Shang king to fight, he can keep his own ancestral temple, which is almost the same as that of Shang. Princes are no different.

And if it is defeated in the first battle, then Yousu is the most thorough vassal of Shang. Except for the ancestral temple, he has almost no independent rights. my own.

And now... it belongs to the most unacceptable ending for Su Hu, that is, the king of Shang is so fucking amazing, like a god in the world, then it is meaningless to keep the ancestral temple at this time, and it can't be kept. If the big cart runs over the child, it will save his life.

Since he can't protect the ancestral temple at the top, and can't comfort the people at the bottom, if he wants to secure his position as the king of Su, he can only wholeheartedly rely on Shang, and become a puppet, turning himself into a part of Shang, or only belonging to the king of Shang. Partly, this decision is difficult to make. This is not a violation of the ancestor's decision, but a complete betrayal of the ancestor's decision.

Of course, there are also advantages. If you completely abandon your own ancestral temple and merge into it, it will not be a vassal, but the territory directly under the king of Shang, and it will completely become a part of Shang. It's time for weakness to invade.

Moreover, King Shang's divine power is so powerful, it is estimated that it will be Yifang's turn to die next!

In this case, the ancestral temple can't be kept, so what's the use of offering sacrifices?Therefore, the high priest of the Su Clan gave Shang along with the priests, and what they did with these people had nothing to do with Yousu.

With Su Jifu, it means that the barrier to the northeast of Shang is stable. Su is located in the east of modern Xingtai City, and its capital is in the east of Suzhuang in modern Xingtai City. The name of Xingtai City is taken from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties-Shang Zuyi After the capital was moved to Xing and Nangeng moved again, it became the northeast barrier of Shang.

From this point of view, it is really a historical inevitability for Yousu to be dropped by Emperor Xin's car. In the words of Zhao Taizu, "the place where you lie on your couch cannot allow others to snore!".

Emperor Xin made four sacrifices, and Emperor Xin moved Su to the old capital Xing, thinking that he was favored and would never rebel——The inscription on the white copper plate of Xing Su's family was unearthed from Pit C of the Shang and Zhou Tombs in Hebei Province (ibid., fictitious).

This battle was very uncomfortable. Although I won the battle, whether it was before the battle, after the battle, or the enemy itself, it made me feel uncomfortable all over. I don’t know if the mentality of the opponent is explosive or not, but just now I feel like I’m carrying the audience and I voted. Zishou’s mentality is quite explosive.

"Your Majesty?" The clear and melodious girlish voice was full of doubt and uneasiness.

"Okay, let's change to this extent, don't change anymore." The girl's limbs are still animal claws, and the girl with white furry ears on her head tilts her head. Because the deformation is halfway, the original black long hair is still the snow white of fox fur. It was very soft and comfortable to the touch, and the wide and perfect pen-shaped tail swept back and forth in confusion.

"In this indifferent world, only the meat balls of the big white-haired raccoons are still a little bit warm." Zishou took the opponent's palm to his knees, pinched the soft pink meat balls, and let the other party There was a more confused sound. 【Note 2】

【Note 1】

This is a fictional product of magical history, which is a product of mythology and history, plus a little magical romance, so this kind of thing is a fictional product, and the real official history, I will write it in brackets.

Therefore, neither pick this issue with real history, nor use this thing as official history to send police elsewhere.

Because of the lessons learned from "Buddha is the Tao", I am really afraid that this kind of little ghost will go to the police, and those who don't know will think that the prehistoric is not a modern myth, but an ancient myth. If there is another one to make this magical history It's even more nonsense if the product is official history.

Dictionary burst:

Can't put it down: Shangke has Su Yuxing, the daughter of the king of Shang, Daji, who often plays with her siblings, and loves her forever~ Describes the appearance of holding someone's hand and loving it very much. (True consciousness is reluctant to let it go because it likes it. The distorted meaning is not much different from the real meaning, but the reason is...)

【Note 3】

When I asked why the road was blocked by heavy snow and did not eat Su grain for the winter, I really could only admire one sentence: Jun Zhen is a crouching dragon and phoenix chick!

Facts: The earliest and most crude map in China was found in the late Warring States period, a wooden map; and the Shang Dynasty, which did not even invent pen and ink and wooden slips, did not have map technology!

Therefore, even if you take ten thousand steps back, without considering food gathering, transportation, and the fact that each tribe only has enough food for themselves, how to find the target in a snowy day and without a map is just a problem.

Therefore, the one who can come up with this idea is at least a phoenix chick!

Chapter No.16

The speed of returning to the court with prisoners and trophies is faster than going out, because on the way, princes kept leaving the team and returned to their fiefs with the trophies they had allocated. At this moment, Zi Shou breathed a sigh of relief.

The time after the battle was short enough, so Queen Jiang hadn't given birth yet. As for bringing a big fox back, there was no need to consider Queen Jiang's opinion.

Because in this era, in order to ensure enough heirs, it is very common and common for a man to have multiple women, even a lot of women besides famous women, and they live in the current family or clan Women don't have much of a problem with that either.

Because there are more males in the family, it means that they will not be bullied by outsiders. Whether they are born by themselves or not, they are all members of the same family and naturally belong to the same camp.

This surprised Zishou, who was worried that his wife might make trouble. In modern times, if a wife is pregnant and giving birth soon, and then brings a little three to swagger back, it can't be called a scumbag, but a "powder-like man." Bulk Quality Humans" (Top Scum)

Zishou, who knew nothing about obstetrics and gynecology, was kicked out within a day after lingering in Queen Jiang's bedroom. The reason was that, as the king of Shang, he should hurry up and do business for his old lady! [Note 1] Empress Jiang no longer doubts that the king's brains were really fooled by Emperor Yi.

After returning to his palace.

"Your Majesty, do you need to go to bed?"

"If you want, you change it first."

"Eh?" The girl showed an even more confused expression, her expression became distorted and horrified a little bit, but, as he said, she turned into a half-human half-beast state, "Continue to change!"

"!!!?" It's not horror but panic. Although it is very common for wild men and sheep to have something happen in this era, nobles still need to show some face and there is no shortage of women.

"Well, lie down and don't move!" Zi Shou patted the big fox's soft belly in satisfaction, and pulled his tail to rest on his body, "Well, just in this position, huh~ I've had enough of this wooden couch and straw mat, or It's so comfortable."

Now the girl who is not Daji can't see the expression. After all, the fox's face, the average person really can't see the expression, but it can be seen that her mind is very messed up now-probably the kind, you think you are here to be seen through Concubine, you are actually just a kind of bedding, literally used to sleep.

Zishou leaning on the "Fox Sofa" moved his body comfortably. In autumn and winter, it is warm, fluffy, soft, and because of its deformation, the sofa with a fragrant girly smell is more comfortable than women too much!

Zishou half-lyed on the big fox, and began to deal with the government affairs accumulated for a period of time, mainly about the astrological problems of stargazing and sacrifices. He had to explain and reply, although in Zishou's view, this is fucking nonsense .

The second is military affairs, mainly to defend Dongyi, and when he started to deal with Dongyi, Zishou realized why Di Xin sat and watched Zhou's drill in Mengjin, and did not take countermeasures.

From the perspective of later generations, Cheng Zhou was regarded as a serious problem in the confidant of the great merchant because of the preconceived notion of "Zhou Ye, the destroyer of merchants" in advance.

(During the Shang Dynasty, he claimed to be a Dayi merchant or a big merchant, and Yin was called by the people of Zhou who belittled him to Yinyuan. You called the merchant a Yin at that time, and his head was smashed by you!)

However, now that Zishou is starting to deal with the mess of Dongyi, if Cheng Zhou and Shang can be called a deep hatred, and both sides have lost a monarch, and King Wen is still imprisoned, it is a shame, then Shang and Dongyi are the real mortal enemies It can be called life and death.

From his grandfather's grandfather, he continued to use troops against Dongyi, and his father's generation entered the peak of large-scale use of troops, and the main purpose was for salt and ore.

Here is the question, how many people from Dongyi did Shang capture?According to Shang's records, over several generations, nearly one million Dongyi people were successively captured as slaves, and most of them were consumed.

For Dongyi people, businessmen are like Japanese in the eyes of Chinese people, and they are still Japanese in World War II. Therefore, let alone Di Xin in history, it is the current Zishou with these records and military reports. There will be a mentality of "those who destroy merchants must be in the east!"

"Damn it, can't that guy Diyi do some personnel work?" Zishou's head was buzzing, his father was playing genocidal plunder and massacre in Dongyi, and he was ravaging the land of Dongyi. Now he has received this mess What can be done?Do you expect to make peace with the opposite party?

Then everyone ignores the fact that less than five years ago, your father was still doing all kinds of crimes?Zishou is not a staff officer of Showa, and Dongyi is not a group of elite businessmen, how is this possible!

Then the only way is to go to the dark, and all the witnesses and victims will be slaughtered, and there will be no problem. In history, Emperor Xin chose to conquer Dongyi four times, and even practiced at the door of his house every week, so he had to take the main force. It is not difficult to understand why it was transferred to defend against Dongyi's attack.

What's even more troublesome is that his father did it. You said that his grandfather didn't do these crap things when he beat Dongyi. How could that idiot Di Yi do it?

It's very simple, his grandfather didn't have such a strong military force at that time, he could only eat away at Dongyi slowly, and he could make great strides by his father's time.

Moreover, Zishou found that it seemed unreliable to deal with it a week in advance, because it was very simple. Some people always like to take it for granted that war is a one-on-one game, and they like to open the perspective of God and ignore their heads.

He realized that if he travels to the 30th sacrifice of Emperor Xin and draws soldiers from Xing to defend Chaoge, then King Wu of Zhou will announce that Mengjin will watch the soldiers go home for the second time, and then Shang will have to throw away the northeast barrier and face Dongyi's attack. It's not a single-handed game, it's not a fight between Shang and Zhou, Dongyi is watching from the sidelines, as long as he dares to draw troops in advance, then it's not Zhou Wu's defeating Zhou, but Qi Wu's defeating Zhou.

And in all fairness, the interval between the Shang and Zhou feuds is quite long, and it is rare to come once, but Dongyi not only lasted for a long time, but the interval was also short, especially when he abused the opposite two generations in a row, who was the confidant of the big business at that time was a big problem. , Maybe modern people and Di Xin have completely different conclusions.

"My lord, this is really itchy~" Zishou, who was thinking about the problem, couldn't help pinching the tip of her tail and the meat ball, which made the big fox who had endured it for a long time finally couldn't help but said, "Also, Your Majesty, if you really like it, you can ask Yousu to pay tribute to the white fox fur."

"Nonsense! Ordinary fox fur can't be as soft and comfortable as you!" Zi Shou almost fell into the warm, fragrant white fluff. This is really the best partner for government affairs!

Sleeping at night should be more comfortable than that hard pillow made of stone. It is still uncomfortable after several layers of animal skins. As for the big furry tail covering the body, it is even warmer than those smelly animal skins. And fluffy, it will not be overwhelmed in the middle of the night.

"But, concubines are not bedding!"

"But in a sense, concubines are just bedding?" Zishou asked back, but Daji was speechless. What he said was right. It could indeed be regarded as a kind of bedding. man, he couldn't find a rebuttal at all.

"Ah Bi (qi, said to be Daji's real name, but there is no proof), who do you think I should hit first? Zhou or Dongyi."

"Dongyi!" Su Bing said without hesitation.

"why?"

"Cheng Zhou is still obedient and has no blood feud, so he can be restrained by the surrounding princes, but Dongyi is really a serious problem." He Zi was right in guessing that no one in this era would think that Zhou was a serious problem.

"So, later generations are not wrong to say that Shangshi died in Dongyi~" Zishou frowned. This is the conclusion summed up by the people of Zhou. Almost made the same choice, because after Zhou occupied the Central Plains, he also found that Dongyi couldn't do without fighting.

Because as long as Dongyi can't be completely solved for a day, it can't be completely mobilized to deal with Zhou or any of the princes. In other words, Shang is actually tied up by Dongyi. But long-term defense and alertness are totally unacceptable.

And long-term offensive operations are not enough, because Dongyi may take advantage of the Shang army to go out at any time and go directly westward. At that time, it will become King Zhou's soldiers in Qishan, and Dongyi invades Modu, destroying Shang in one battle.

However, whether to fight Dongyi or not to fight, Chen Bing's border will not work, because that is the way Di Xin died in history, before the large army that defended Dongyi in Xing land came back, he was defeated by Zhou Bo.

"Damn, what is ancient Afghanistan? It's the cemetery of the empire." Zi Shouren was numb. No wonder Zhou Wu granted Jiang Shang the title of Qi, not because Jiang Shang was the master, but because only Jiang Shang could hold it This mess, and Jiang Shang did suppress this mess, but after he died, the mess still rotted.

Regarding the matter of Dongyi, Zishou decided to talk about it later. The next step is the more important issue, which is actually the most important government affairs. It's just that he is in a modern way of thinking and put it at the end.

That is the issue of captives offering temples. Among the prisoners of war, except those who have money to redeem themselves, craftsmen and serfs who have crafts and can work, the rest must be sacrificed. There are two types of sacrifices. One is the captives themselves. Humans are not beheaded for sacrifice, but their ears are generally cut for sacrifice; one is the captive barbarian, oh, that is made into a barbarian sacrifice, um, the real barbarian, the kind that does not use flour. (hell joke)

Zishou discovered that Emperor Xin had not started to reform and restrict sacrifices at this time, and later generations had a misunderstanding because they saw Zhou's description of King Zhou's restrictions on sacrifices, which is also a common misunderstanding in later generations of marketing accounts.

That is, King Zhou's restriction on sacrifice refers to the kind of "restriction" understood by modern people, that is, to gradually reduce and eliminate human sacrifices. In fact, Zishou discovered two problems. First, it was not King Zhou who started the restriction, his father Emperor Yi started; second, this restriction is not gradually reduced and eliminated, but to be standardized, professionalized and streamlined.

"Damn chicken, it's this restriction~ I thought it was that restriction." Zi Shou rubbed his forehead.

To put it simply, it restricts the objects of sacrifice, and stipulates what objects can be sacrificed by humans and what cannot, and King Zhou made a one-size-fits-all basis on this basis-only the direct clan of Shang King can, other princes can't!

"Don't worry about scarcity but inequality, are you looking for death~" Zishou shook his head, although it was an act of consolidating the kingship, elevating his ancestors to be the supreme gods, while others were not, but this meant harmony with theocracy Not to mention being tied together, it also caused the original in-laws and nobles to become Cheng Zhou's leading party one by one.
