The snow on the ground has not yet melted, and the vast western continent is slowly recovering from the diseases and war wounds. I have to say that although God treats all things like a dog sometimes, there are also times when he gives rich gifts.

This heavy snow came at a good time. It effectively killed the plague spread by the Persians on the earth, and buried both sin and decay deeply. Perhaps, when the snow becomes a river in the near future, it will take everything with it.

In this regard, the tens of millions of people living on the western continent should sincerely bow to the heavens, thank them for their kindness, and benefit all sentient beings. And in fact, that's exactly what they do.

The Western Continent, which is much larger than the territory of the Far Eastern Shenzhou, is far less prosperous and civilized than there, and it does not have that much population. But if you take it seriously, the number of races and groups of people living in this land is also a huge number.

If you add to that the indigenous tribes scattered in the primitive wilderness, there may be hundreds of races of different colors that exist here, and they have multiplied and lived for generations. Broadly speaking, they are the owners of the land.

The Persians, who have been strong since more than 200 years ago, are just one part of this. Like a hurricane, they swept across the earth, crisscrossing in all directions, and achieved the king's hegemony in a short period of time, which has to be said to be a miracle.

Most of the races that live on this side have hardly escaped the fate of enslavement. In order to survive, they were forced to choose to submit and feed the growing Persian Empire with their own flesh and blood. After so many years of slave-like life, they are numb and resigned, and seem to have become accustomed to this way of living.

This is a strange phenomenon of human beings in the first place. After kneeling for a long time, I forgot how to walk normally. Not to mention rebelling to regain one's dignity.

If there is no external intervention, such a slavery system may continue to exist on this land for a long time. Aristocrats will always be nobles, slaves will always be slaves, thousands of years, there is no end.

Even if it is a sea, it takes a hurricane to stir up thousands of waves. If the heavens want it to perish, they must first make it crazy! No one could have imagined that the Persian king's accidental ambition would not only cost him his own life, but would also drag the giant empire behind him into hell.

The army of the Han Dynasty from the far east crossed the mountains and seas and descended from the sky. They swept across the vast land with almost everything in a sweeping manner. The incomparably strong Persians were simply vulnerable in front of these ironclad cavalry.

All the ethnic groups that were once oppressed and enslaved witnessed this war of annihilation with their own eyes with frightened and trembling expressions. These magnificent images remain in their minds and become impressions that can never be erased. No one could have imagined that the Persians and their king, who almost represented the will of God, would disappear like a cloud of smoke overnight.

However, such a huge impact does not bring joy, but boundless fear. Because in the eyes of these ethnic groups who have been enslaved for a hundred years,

The Persians are demonic beings. And those who subdue and destroy them must be even more terrible demons.

The tall cavalry group of war horses stepped across the Qianmo River in the afterglow of the setting sun, roaring vertically and horizontally. Those cold swords flashing, with the light of death, and the cold gaze wrapped in armor all over the body, made people involuntarily bow down in the dust from afar, not daring to look up.

The methods of the cavalry of the Han Dynasty to deal with the enemy were iron-blooded and cruel. Especially in the last battle outside the Persian king's city, the remnants of Persia who launched a surprise attack on the Han army camp with the courage of killing are almost miserable.

In that battle, the Han Dynasty army, completely enraged, poured out of the nest and pursued and besieged on all sides. Whoever you meet, regardless of your status, will be killed!

The military operation behind such an order is far more brutal than human imagination can be. Because, under the blade of such a massacre, there will be no discrimination between targets. This includes the elderly, the weak, women and children, the injured, the sick, the orphaned, and the disabled, .......

All the ethnic groups of different skin colors watched with wide frightened eyes and stunned as they watched the atrocities of the Han cavalry. They witnessed the Persian princes and nobles being trampled like mud by their knives and iron hooves. I also saw that all the Persians, regardless of their nobility and inferiority, were shattered into the dust like mustard. Unbeknownst to them, this was the only brutal act of the Han cavalry in all foreign wars, and that this genocidal revenge was only for one person.

In any case, the great deterrence and unparalleled sense of fear of the Han cavalry have been firmly entrenched in everyone's hearts ever since. These ethnic groups, large and small, see this as a demonic legend. For a long time to come, it would be secretly spoken to their descendants, to warn them never to provoke the dragon from the east, under any circumstances. Because, once it opens its eyes and its scales and claws fly, there is no power in this world that can withstand its wrath!

The people of the Han Dynasty turned out to be so terrible. Even before the war was over, they had completely taken the place of the Persians in the hearts of the ethnic groups. Moreover, they are ready to welcome the new ruler and continue to accept the fate of even more cruel slavery.

However, the subsequent development of events was somewhat unexpected. The elders and chiefs of the various ethnic groups, who were anxious for their future survival, were surprised to find that the Han Chinese treated everyone but the Persians with the same treatment, showing a rare mildness.

Those murderous Han cavalry, when they passed outside the territory where they lived, almost did not commit any crimes, and there was no bullying or killing. Moreover, when the trembling elders bowed to the dust and knelt on the ground to offer cattle, sheep, food, etc., although the Han cavalry did not accept it, they were greeted warmly by the leading general. And the attitude is kind, without a trace of murder.

This reassured the terrified clan elders a little. As long as the Han people put away their knives and do not kill people indiscriminately, at least their lives will be guaranteed. As for the other costs that will be paid, whatever it may be, it is acceptable.

Subsequently, the development of things made them feel more and more incredible.

The iron-blooded army of the Han Dynasty did not enter the place where they lived. separately

Only a small number of small detachments came to each ethnic area. Moreover, their purpose was not to plunder or demand, but to send much-needed help.

These small detachments, numbering in the tens or hundreds, were led not by generals or lieutenants in the army, but by people in light robes and gentle manners. They are kind and polite. Even when dealing with some semi-savage lifestyle groups that have not yet been fully civilized, they do not discriminate against them.

The Han Dynasty brought not only peaceful means of pacification, but also a large amount of supplies and medicine. The elders of the clan looked at the fine cloths, porcelain, wine, various household utensils, and many foods piled up in front of them, and they felt like they were dreaming.

"These ...... These things were really given to us? ”

There have always been only slave groups who have been enslaved and consecrated, and they can never believe that this is true. These things came from the fabled prosperity of the East, and they had occasionally had the opportunity to see them at royal palaces or gatherings of nobles. They are all rare things, rare and precious. In those moments, if you can touch it with your own hands, or taste it a little, you will be satisfied. But how could they have thought that today they saw a large amount piled up in front of them, and the Han people said that they were given to them for free!

"Since you brought it, of course it's for you. It's just a little bit of what we have come from afar. But it's nothing. ”

The elegant scholar named Xiao Wangzhi at the head showed a faint smile on his face and showed a good affinity. Although there is a faint sadness in his heart, he can't tolerate a little personal emotion in the face of the important mission he shoulders.

Iron shoulders to shoulder morality, just a scholar! This is the responsibility of their group, and it is also the mission entrusted to them by history. Since he has traveled thousands of miles to follow the Han army here, he must complete this task. Spread civilization, naturalize people's hearts, and let the seeds from the land of China be sown on this land, take root, sprout, blossom and bear fruit...... This is what they promised Yuan Zhao at the beginning. A promise is worth a thousand dollars! Even if Yuan Zhao suffered an accident and was no longer in this world, they had to complete it meticulously.

There are many people who share the same mission and determination with Xiao Wangzhi. The doctrine of the Chinese sages they knew and understood was brought by them to this thousands of miles away, and the spark of the stars could start a prairie fire. In time, it will surely bear fruit. There is a great deal of confidence and enthusiasm in this part of everyone.

Almost flattered and overjoyed, the clan elders began to accept the turn of their fate. The great plague did not lead to a catastrophe, half of which came from the blessing of heavy snowfall, and the other half of course due to the help of the Han Dynasty.

All this was originally part of Yuan Zhao's plan to go west. Thunderbolt means, bodhisattva heart. Eliminate the first evil and win the hearts of the people...... This is the premise for the Chinese civilization to spread far and for generations to come. His followers have already deeply understood this spirit. Even if the Si people are not there, they will continue to do it until they succeed.

It's just that things are far from going so well. Sudden changes are about to happen, and the passing of the torch of the light of China may have to endure even more difficult tests.
