Chapter 461: Worship the Yellow Emperor
Water p
The surging Weishui came out of the West Mountain from the Baoji Gorge and flowed into the 800-mile Guanzhong Plain.
After breaking free from the shackles of the mountains, the riverbed suddenly became wider.
Along the way, it accepts countless small rivers flowing from the Qinling Mountains, and after reaching the Guanzhong Plain, the riverbed is wider and the water flow is more abundant.
Unlike the almost broken flow in later generations, the Weishui River is now more than a mile wide.
The water in the river is deep and rapid, the waves are magnificent, the turbidity waves are turbulent, and the eastward flow is rolling.
Large ships loaded with timber, mountain goods, and rice grain can go straight to Tongguan along the Weishui River, and enter the Yellow River to all parts of the Central Plains.
Weishui not only created 800 miles of rich Qinchuan, but also blocked the north-south traffic.
What is surprising is that for thousands of years, there has not been a fixed bridge on the Weishui River.
People on both sides of the Wei River often come and go by "temporary bridges in winter and spring, and ferries in summer and autumn".
The temporary bridge is generally built after the frost falls, made of wood and wooden boats, and dismantled during the Qingming Festival of the next year.
This period of time is the dry period of the Wei River, and the bridge will not be washed away.
For more than half a year, the north-south pedestrians and business travelers rely on wooden boats to ferry.
Xianyang Ferry Port is a north-south transportation hub, pedestrians, merchants, vehicles, mules and horses all night long, and is the first Dadu in Qinzhong.
After the Hexi army moved south, the Xianyang Qin army knew that it was invincible, and abandoned the city and fled south.
Before leaving, the Qin army set fire to the Xianyang Bridge and plundered all the ships on the shore to the south bank.
When the Hexi army arrived on the north bank of Weishui, they found that not only was the bridge destroyed, but the bank was also empty, and only the Weishui was turbulent.
Immediately on the shore of Weishui, Wei Shuo pouted and said: "Hou Qin is moving very fast, but unfortunately, our army has no plans to go south for the time being." ”
At this time, Cui Hong immediately stepped forward and bowed down to report: "Dadu Protector, Li Wei has sent an urgent report, wanting my troops to send troops to the north and attack Beidi County with its north and south." ”
"Yes! Let Kuai En and Tan Daoji stay and garrison Chiyang, Xianyang and other places, and Shuo will personally go north to Beidi County. ”
"Beidi County is a remote and small place, and the Qin general Di Bozhi is hiding in Fuping City to survive, why do you need to be conscripted by the lord himself?"
Cui Hong said with a puzzled face: "The minister thinks that he only needs to send a general to the battle, and he can be captured." ”
"Besides, the soldiers on the battlefield are fierce, if you make any mistakes, won't you let me regret it?"
"Yes, yes!"
"Kill chickens with a knife, and the last general is willing to go out for the lord and calm the northern Hu."
Seeing this, Wei Shuo hurriedly explained: "Shuo insisted on going north, not to conquer Zhuhu, but to worship Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor. ”
……
When the Anding army attacked the cities along the Jingshui coast, Li Huibu of Shangjun was not to be outdone.
After joining forces with Wang Zhongde to take the land west of the river, Li Wei quickly crossed Luoshui east and besieged Xingcheng.
Under Li Wei's aggressiveness, the Qin general Di Bozhi had no choice but to lead his troops to retreat to Beidi County.
The people of Beidi County are few and narrow, sandwiched between the two counties of Fengyi and Fufeng, and the area is only a little larger than that of Xinping County.
At present, Beidi County has been heavily surrounded by the Hexi army, and Di Bozhi has no confidence to fight any further, but he does not dare to surrender.
After all, most of the guards are notoriously hated Hulu, especially for the Hulu nobles, and there are few who are tolerant.
In the past ten years, most of the capitals have protected tens of thousands of Hulu leaders and noble heads, creating a great reputation.
However, in the face of the crushing strength of the Hexi army, in addition to feeling fear, he was full of helplessness.
Now that he can't fight and fight, and he can't escape and escape, Di Bozhi is helpless, so he can only sit and die in poverty.
Tens of thousands of Hexi soldiers were divided into two routes, one east and one west, like black clouds destroying the city, the momentum was magnificent, and the northern Hus fled one after another.
Because a large number of Hu people fled to Fuping, tens of thousands of Qiang and Hu Lu gathered in Fuping County for a time.
Di Bozhi was originally troubled by the lack of troops in his hands, but now tens of thousands of Hu Lu came for nothing, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy.
In the face of the fleeing of Hulu in various places, the Hexi Army was still not in a hurry, and continued to fight steadily and steadily, step by step.
Li Wei went from the northeast to the southwest, and Wei Shuo went from the southwest to the northeast, and the two Hexi armies continued to compress the living space of the Hu people.
In mid-March, Wei Shuo's army approached Huangbaicheng (now the northeast of Sanyuan County) and took the western gateway of Fuping on the tenth day.
Just when Di Bozhi and Zhonghu thought that the generals of the Hexi Army were approaching the city, Wei Shuo did not continue to lead the army to the west.
Wei Shuo turned a corner in Huangbai City and went north to Jie Xue Mountain to worship the ancestor of China, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor.
Intercept Xue Mountain, also known as Jing Mountain, also known as Zhonghua Plateau, Jingyuan, Jingshan Plateau, is located in the north of Huangbai City.
According to the "Historical Records", the Yellow Emperor cast the yang of Jingshan (Xue Mountain), Dingcheng, and ascended to heaven with the dragon.
That is to say, Jiexue Mountain is the place where the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven with the dragon, and it is one of the most important cultural holy places in China.
It's a pity that Hu Lu is chaotic, and there has been no Han people here to worship Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor for nearly a hundred years.
Wei Shuo came to the foot of the mountain and ordered the army to camp at the foot of the mountain.
"Dadu Hu, this is the place where Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor cast a tripod and ascended to heaven?" Kang Long looked at the bare stones around him in disbelief.
"Of course! Let's go up and worship Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor. With that, Wei Shuo dismounted and hiked up the mountain.
When going up the mountain, Wei Shuo's steps were also very light, and he walked on the mountain path step by step.
Perhaps under the influence of the protector of the capital, or perhaps out of awe of the ancestors of China, the others were all solemn and solemn.
After a while, everyone climbed to the top of the Xue Mountain and looked south, but they saw that the Jing Wei was distinct, and the entire Guanzhong Plain was in full view.
Placing sacrificial offerings, lighting incense, and in the mist of smoke, everyone started with Wei Shuo, and performed three kneels and nine bows.
"The great ancestor, Wuhua Zhaozao. Yan Yan worships Mian, Yue Ehe Hao. ”
"Wise and wise, the light is desolate. Build this great cause and stand majestically in the East. ”
"The world has changed vicissitudes, and the middle has fallen. The more millennium, the more contemptuous of virtue. ”
"Heluo is not guarded, and the Central Plains is a ruin. And Yongyan Ji, there are so many unjust souls! ”
"The sky is above, and the earth is below; The gods and ghosts are miserable, and the sky is green. ”
"The descendants of the future generations will have nothing but sacrifice to tell their ancestors."
"Defend my Shenzhou, shine my China. Work hard and proclaim to the Holy Lord! ”
After the worship, everyone stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the distant scenery.
Suddenly, Wei Shuo turned his head to look at Cui Hong next to him and asked: "Since ancient times, emperors have ruled the world, and China has lived inside to control Yidi, and Yidi has lived outside to serve China. ”
"Why since the Wei and Jin dynasties, Yidi has repeatedly broken the old precedent and set a precedent for the ancients?"
"The beautiful rivers and mountains of the Central Plains were originally the holy land of Yanhuang and the paradise of China, but they let the Xianbei, Xiongnu, Qian, Qiang, Di and other Hulu pickled people dominate the king!"
"Uncle Xuan, you are a scholar of heaven, can you tell me the reason?"
"What can we do so that future generations will not experience the suffering of today?"
"This ......"
"The minister thinks that since Yongjia, Yidi's entry into the Central Plains is not providential, but a man-made disaster."
"Since the end of the Han Dynasty, there have been constant disputes in China, which eventually led to a great loss of vitality, and Yidi took advantage of the chaos to disturb the Central Plains."
"At that time, if the monarch was wise and good, he was enough to dominate the world and be a man with lofty ideals, how could he sigh that the crown was reversed?!"
"However, Hu Lu is a barbarian after all, although he can run rampant for a while, he is not as long as my Chinese heritage."
"Hulu will not have the luck of a hundred years, but China will produce a saint in five hundred years."
"Counting from the Yongjia Rebellion, Hulu has been in turmoil in the Central Plains for nearly a hundred years."
"And since the birth of Kong Sheng, it has been more than 950 years."
"Do you know what that means?!" Cui Hong asked meaningfully.
He didn't wait for Wei Shuo to answer, so his eyes lit up and said: "Today, Hu Lu should be destroyed, and Huaxia will eventually be revived under the leadership of the sage?!" ”
"From the perspective of the ministers, the lord is the saint of heaven, and he will completely end the hundred-year-old trouble."
"Uncle Xuan has an overreputation, how dare Shuo compete with the sages?!"
"The lord does not need to be arrogant, in the eyes of the minister, just how to prevent the rebellion of the Hulu, there has been no one who has surpassed the lord in the past dynasties."
"Eh, that's because Shuo stands on the shoulders of the sages of the past dynasties, so his vision is more far-reaching than others."
Regarding the prevention of rebellion, as an elite member of the Han nationality at that time, Cui Hong once privately pondered this issue.
After taking refuge in Hexi, under the influence of Wei Shuo, he came into contact with many theories of ethnic integration.
He very much agreed with the policy of ethnic assimilation pursued by Hexi, and even more admired the viewpoint of "one nation, one culture, and one state."
Because, Hexi is a living example, and under the continuous reinforcement, the differences between various ethnic groups gradually disappear.
Walking on Hexi Street today, as far as the eye can see, you can no longer see ethnic groups with different costumes and different languages.
"Hu Wu has a hundred years of luck ......" Cui Hong muttered to himself: "Today, I believe that it is true!" ”
"Not bad!" Jiang Ji next to him was also full of excitement.
"The cycle of heavenly fortune, at this time, China is prosperous, and among the billions of trillions, a saint is born."
"It should drive Hu Lu from the outside, restore China from the inside, establish a program of Chen Ji, and relieve the people."
The people stayed on the mountain for a long time, and then hurried down the mountain when it was almost dark.
Since the Yellow Emperor was worshiped in Xue Mountain, a rumor soon spread all over the world.
When Hu Lu heard this proverb, it caused a chaos, and all his liver and gall were broken, and he was so frightened that he couldn't stop sleeping.
