Chapter 127: Legends
A stick messes the South China Sea,
Nine swords shook the North Pass.
Yama enters the eastern courtyard,
The pagoda falls on the West Mountain.
This slang poem, which is neither dualistic nor peaceful, can be read out of the mouth of the middle-aged man Yuan Ye, which caused silence in the audience.
"This poem ......!"
Fang Ye was about to raise a glass and stopped.
"I think I've heard ...... somewhere"
"My grandfather used to love this poem......"
"Old Yuan, tell me quickly, what is the story behind this poem?"
Someone around him had already asked.
"Don't worry," Yuan Ye chuckled lightly and said, "Before I say it, I still have to solemnly state to you that the story I am going to tell next comes from folklore, and most of the content has been artistically processed by the people, and it is pure fiction." ”
When the words fell, he saw the impatient looks on everyone's faces, and continued: "Okay, without further ado, let's start with the beginning of this poem-
I think everyone knows that during that period, due to the warlords in various places, the old China was gradually declining, and the Western powers that took advantage of the situation to rise were eyeing China, and there were even Japanese thieves who invaded the South China from time to time, causing the coastal areas to suffer and the people to make a living.
At that time in the northwest of China, the Mongolian state established by Genghis Khan in the past, and later Outer Mongolia, after their leader Hubakr Khan formed an alliance with the Tsarist Russian Dynasty, repeatedly violated the border, and once attacked the Beiguan Pass. ”
Yuan Ye said this, paused, "This history, we have all learned from textbooks, what happened after that, our textbooks do not say, if there are students who study history here, they may know that the repeated offenders on the coast of the South Seas were successfully co-opted by the government because of the new emperor of Dongying at that time, "open up thousands of miles of waves, spread the power of the country in all directions", and even later turned into sailors of the three warships "Hiei", "Haruna", and "Kirishima", such changes made the coastal areas of the South Seas a little peaceful. ”
"Lao Yuan is right, that's true," At this time, a person at the bottom whispered to the people around him, he is a cartoonist signed by Huaxing Manke, but most of the works he draws are mainly historical themes.
"Ahem, I just said that the Japanese were co-opted by the Dongying government and gave the coastal areas a moment of peace, but we all know that it was only a very short time, with the continuous development of colonialism, the Dongying military hoped to expand outward with the backing of force, but in just five years, the Dongying Navy poured out, under the slogan of 'colonizing the land and rejuvenating the country', to the South China Sea, The countries of the East China Sea invaded, the Korean Empire in the East Sea fell first, the royal family was forcibly relocated to Dongying proper, and the Korean Peninsula was officially incorporated into the territory of Dongying, and the Dongying government then imposed colonial rule.
On the South China Sea side, Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries have fallen one after another, and after occupying them, Dongying supported and established puppet regimes, so that the people of several countries were ruled by high-pressure and cruel means. ”
Yuan Ye calmly narrated like a real history teacher, and everything he said was historically proven.
"But have you noticed that during this period, Dongying, which became crazy and brutal, constantly invaded and colonized, did not attack China, let alone invade the coast, modern history books are all understated about this, and historians also attribute it to the rapid rise of New China. The outbreak of the naval war between the Dongying government and the U.S. Federation, etc., but our folklore does not say so, as described in the poem, it was a stick from the sky that fell from the sky, disrupting the South China Sea, and scared the Dongying Navy that wanted to enter the old China.
And in the same period, the Russian Dynasty of the Alexei Empress died bizarrely, less than half a month later, the head of Outer Mongolia Hubakr Khan lost his head in his sleep, the two countries fell into the internal struggle for power, the precarious situation in Beiguan collapsed in an instant, the history books said that the Empress Alexei was suddenly ill, and Hubakr Khan was murdered by the assassins sent by the second son, it is said that there is a nose and eyes, but the folk history is rumored that Bakr Khan was taken by a flying sword, and the Alexei Empress, it is rumored that on the day of her death, there were nine ancient swords inserted in front of her bed, so that the alliance between the two countries ceased to exist, not to mention the horse stepping on the North Pass!”
"This is the story behind 'one stick messing up the South China Sea, nine swords sweeping the North Pass'?!"
Due to the amount of information in it, Fang Ye, who was in a state of uneasy mood, slowly closed his eyes.
Somehow, he preferred to believe the 'story' he had heard.
If you don't listen to fictional stories, just think about it, it means that there was a very terrible 'miracle' in China at that time.
A stick messes up the South China Sea.
Could it be that he is talking about the wishful golden hoop stick of the Great Sage?!
And the nine swords swept the North Pass.
It refers to a flying sword that takes the head of a person in an instant?!
