Chapter 251 I'm from Lone Bamboo, and we're back to ask for a full order

As the saying goes, there are no two tigers in one mountain, and it is naturally difficult to accommodate two countries in the same region, let alone two countries with conflicts left over from history.

According to the scale of the state in ancient times, the Guzhu State was a large vassal state, because it was the hometown of the Shang Dynasty.

At least 5,000 years ago, a tribal alliance called Shang had been formed in the land of Liaodong, and the rule of the alliance was from the east of the Taihang Mountains to the Korean Peninsula, all of which were developed from the radiation range of the Hongshan cultural group.

Among them, the Shang people, is the leader of the tribal alliance, and later the Shang clan and the west of the Chinese alliance to form an alliance, the two large alliances in the cultural and economic integration of each other, the leader of the Shang clan, by the Chinese leader Yao as the king of Xuan, and later in Yao will be the leader of the position of Zen to Yu, coincided with the earth's climate mutation, the Central Plains water, the contract to help Yu in the Central Plains flood control.

The flood caused a major loss to the Chinese population, and the Yu invitation deed migrated to the Central Plains from the Liaodong region that had become cold and unsuitable for human habitation, and the Shangqiu area of Henan Province, which was also seriously affected by the flood at that time, was given the deed, and responded to the call of Dayu to establish the country, established the Shang State, and became the alliance vassal state of the Xia State of Dayu.

But the original birthplace of the Shang clan was not abandoned by the deed, although the land has become more and more cold, not suitable for human habitation, but the deed still left his descendants in the ancestral land, and in the name of the bamboo, the goose is a kind of wine vessel, in ancient times is one of the representatives of the nobility, and the bamboo represents the bamboo slips, is the meaning of the record.

Therefore, from the name of the lonely bamboo country in the oracle bone inscription, it can be shown that the country has been very noble, and later in the oracle bone inscription, I saw many times that the lonely bamboo girl married the king of Shang, and the words of the king of Shang married the daughter of the lonely bamboo, it can be seen that the relationship between the two countries is very close.

In later generations, the oracle bone inscriptions, bronzes, jade inscriptions and other cultural relics related to the Guzhu Kingdom were found in Anyang, Henan, Luannan, Tangshan, Lulong, Qinhuangdao, and Kazuo, Liaoning, which confirmed the prosperity of the country during the Shang Dynasty and the field of rule.

It is indeed strange that such a country with a vast ruling territory and located in a bitter cold region appeared in the history of the Zhou Dynasty as a gentleman and a weak country after the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang, but it is understandable to look at the change of the Zhao dynasty to discredit the previous dynasty to confirm the orthodox custom of rule.

King Wu of Zhou divided his most powerful brother Zhao Gong into the realm of the Guzhu Kingdom, which is enough to prove that King Wu of Zhou attached great importance to the Guzhu Kingdom, after all, the Liaodong region at that time, whether in terms of strategy or resources, did not seem to have much value, and it was a serious waste of resources of the Zhou Dynasty to seal such a great talent as Zhaogong to Liaodong.

Moreover, after King Wu of Zhou conquered Chaoge, in the area of today's Beijing, he sealed the descendants of the Yellow Emperor and established the Ji Kingdom, which is the capital of the Later Yan Kingdom.

There are currently no cultural relics unearthed in this thistle country, only recorded in the Book of Rites.

Li Jile recorded: "King Wu Keyin returned to Shang, and he was crowned the Yellow Emperor after Ji before he got off the car."

It means that Zhou Wunn had just captured Chaoge, and he didn't dare to ascend the throne, and he didn't know where to find a group of descendants of the Yellow Emperor, and they were sealed on the road to the west of the Guzhu Kingdom as the Ji Kingdom.

The core of the feudal system is to confirm the right to rule, Zhou destroyed Shang and Shang destroyed Xia differently, that is because Shang destroyed Xia relied on strength, Shang Tang ascended to the heights, and really used strength to overthrow the Xia Dynasty, even if the Xia Dynasty had remnants, they did not dare to act rashly.

However, King Wu of Zhou took advantage of the Shang Emperor Xin's army to conquer Dongyi, and hooked up with Wei Zi Qi of Chao Ge and Bi Gan and Ji Zi and others.

It is difficult to prevent house thieves day and night, especially the house thieves who collude with foreign ghosts, even if they fight Di Xin who has expanded their territory all their lives, they are unable to return to the sky, and King Wu of Zhou used 45,000 elite soldiers from the elites of the major tribes in the west to temporarily put together 170,000 slave troops against Di Xin.

In addition, Di Xin also had to control and find a traitor in the city, such as Bigan, Wei Ziqi, and other internal thieves.

The main willingness is that the regular army in the hands of Di Xin has been sent to attack the Dongyi tribe, and there is one of the most elite royal army in the hands of a prince called Yu Houxi, this army has 250,000 people.

History only says that this army was unsuccessful and disappeared.

The army of 250,000 is at a loss, and it can indeed be regarded as a mystery.

And it just so happened that Zhou Wunn had just captured Chaoge, and he didn't even dare to ascend the throne, so he first sealed an inexplicable Ji country in Liaodong, according to etiquette, he had not yet ascended the throne, which was a big crime of encroachment, but the major princes, even Wei Ziqi and others acquiesced to the existence of this Ji country.

The history of the Lonely Bamboo Country that Wang Xu learned from Mo Ren's mouth is inextricably linked to this Ji Country.

Because this Ji country is the royal army led by Yu Houxi back then.

Youhou Xi was rebelled by Jiang Shangce, and after King Wu of Zhou broke through the song, Youhou Xi and the descendants of Emperor Xin in the royal army started a civil war, and finally there were more than 100,000 people left, and he was named Jiguo, and King Wu of Zhou sealed him in Jiguo, just to let him and the lonely bamboo army that would definitely go west under King Qin again internal friction.

Because the Shang was destroyed too suddenly, the internal ghosts and the external thieves almost controlled the news of the Shang extinction near Shangqiu in the Central Plains, and it could not be transmitted to the remote Guzhu at all.

By the time Guzhu received the fall of the Shang Dynasty and was ready to send troops to King Qin, it had been many years later.

But the lonely bamboo monarch Boyi still sent troops to the west to enter the king of Qin, even if at this time Di Xin had already turned into ashes, Boyi on the way to the west and the army of the Ji country Hou Xi had a big battle, after a hard battle, Boyi has not yet conquered the Ji country, but also encountered the army of Jiang Shang who led the army to come.

Jiang Shang and Youhou Xi fought hard with Boyi, and finally Guzhu Jun Boyi and Uncle Dawu died in Shouyang Mountain, which severely defeated the Zhou army, and King Wu of Zhou and Jiang Shang were afraid of Guzhu, and changed Zhaogong from the southwest of Qishan to prevent Guzhu from advancing westward.

Later, the Yan Kingdom developed for three hundred years before annexing the Ji Kingdom, and then wanted to attack Guzhu, but was harassed by the Fang State of the Guzhu Country Shanrong, and finally found Qi Huan Gong and destroyed the Shanrong and the Guzhu Kingdom together.

If it weren't for the fact that the Guzhu Kingdom had exhausted the national strength of Guzhu in order to avenge the westward march to King Qin, and it had not slowed down for three hundred years, the Eastern Expedition of Duke Qi Huan would probably have collapsed in Yanshan.

Of course, this is the story that Wang Xu got from Mo Kui's mouth, Mo Kui, as a descendant of Guzhu, naturally stands on the side of Guzhu Country, and Guzhu Country has been dead for so many years, these stories are not recorded in history, but passed down by word of mouth of successive monarchs, and it is inevitable that there will be a lot of changes.

So Wang Xu is ready to talk to Yan Wangxi and listen to his story.

The matter of the Lonely Bamboo Country and the Ji Kingdom is closely related to the national history of the Yan Kingdom, so it is impossible for Yan Wangxi not to know.

Yan Wangxi was the first ancient serious king that Wang Xu had ever seen.

Even if it comes from later generations, Wang Xu always has a lot of imagination about the special identity of the king.

The kings in history are still a little different from the leaders of later generations, the leaders are all selected, regardless of their political achievements, at least they are educated, and the means of leadership to serve the public is to use qualifications.

But the king's method of subduing the public, in addition to his identity, will there be something else, which Wang Xu is most curious about as a later generation.

Yan Wangxi in Wang Xu's impression will naturally not be a Ming Jun or a virtuous Jun, he can almost be regarded as a faint Jun, but judging from his deeds, Yan Wangxi is still a king with some ideas, although his ability may be really insufficient, judging from his insistence on taking advantage of Zhao Guochang's defeat and wanting to steal the city, at least there is still something to do.

It's a pity that the ability is insufficient, and I met famous generals like Li Mu and Lian Po.

And he was crippled by Zhao Guo in the later period, and he was willing to let Prince Dan mess around, which shows that he is indeed a king who wants to do something, of course, it can also be described as liking to make trouble and die.

But seeing with his own eyes this old man who was already thin and only had bones left, and was sick in bed, Wang Xu was still a little disappointed.

"King Yan was a little tired after eating, so he went to sleep first." The doctor whispered to Wang Xu and Jing Ke.

Jing Ke looked at Yan Wangxi who was lying on the bed, frowned at Wang Xu and said, "It seems that Yan Wang's body is really a little poor. ”

"If Mr. Jing is not in a hurry, I will talk to King Yan first." Wang Xu asked with a smile.

"Emperor, please." Jing Ke stopped the doctor who wanted to say more and kicked everyone out of the dormitory.

Wang Xu also asked the Zhu family and Yu Chun to wait outside, and then walked around the nearly 200-square-meter dormitory alone.

The floor is wooden, carved with the words of the Yan Kingdom, poured with gold or bronze, so it reflects a certain beautiful halo under the light of the candlelight, the bed in the dormitory has always been made of tiger-shaped copper, hanging a light blue curtain with a very soft color matching, and there are not many other furniture in the dormitory, the most is the table with various aromatherapy and medicinal materials.

Yan Wangxi's bedroom is much simpler than the restored palace of later generations, but it is indeed the most upscale room that Wang Xu has seen so far, through

After turning around, he sat on the chair next to the bed that Yu Chun put on, looked at Yan Wangxi, who seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and chuckled, "Does Yan Wang feel that his time is running out?" ”

Yan Wangxi's eyelids twitched slightly, and then let out a light sigh: "Didn't King Qin even give the old man a chance to die in Yandi?" ”

"If King Yan wanted to die, he might have died a long time ago." Wang Xu sneered, "Since you want to live, live well." ”

Yan Wangxi turned his head sideways with some effort, and his somewhat cloudy eyes were slightly stunned when he saw Wang Xu, and then narrowed his eyes after his eyes widened, as if he wanted to see Wang Xu's face carefully, and his already sunken cheeks showed a somewhat self-deprecating smile, "It's really old and dizzy, and I actually saw the double pupil out-of-phase." ”

Wang Xu smiled and sat closer, "King Yan is not mistaken, I am indeed a double pupil." ”

Yan Wangxi's eyes widened suddenly, staring at Wang Xu.

"To re-introduce, my name is Wang Xu, and I'm from Guzhu." Wang Xu smiled and spoke.

Yan Wangxi's pupils shrank suddenly, and his breath was almost out of breath later, but fortunately, Wang Xu reached out and pressed it among others.

"Lone bamboo?" Yan Wangxi's whole body was trembling.

"Yes, maybe this name is too unfamiliar to this generation of Yan Wang, but now I'll tell you." Wang Xu smiled at the corner of his mouth, "We're back." ”
