Chapter 8 Killing Dong and Going on the Expedition
It would be nice if they were all as good as Hong'er, and they would still be wise. This time you go to a bitter cold place, but you have to be more careful." "Don't worry, I'm going to have a big life. This time, I also asked Buick and Guli to go home to see, you said that these two guys are also in their thirties, why are they still the same as when they were young, and they don't see age." "Husbands and gentlemen are not old, how can grace see old age. The descendants of Buick and Guli have already grown old, and the two that were given to Yu Shan are now worshiped like divine beasts. Some time ago, Houxia County Taishou returned to Beijing and brought Hui a golden seal of the wolf king's claws." "Haha, keep it well, it's okay to show Buick and Guli."
The next day, the various preparations and resources were continuously transported to Xia Gu from all over the country by railway, and the application of telephone and telegraph saved a lot of time, Ouyang Xuan only taught Zhang Lang and others some theories and design schemes, and they quickly turned the theory into reality. Ouyang Xuan simply copied the encyclopedia in the tablet and handed it to Zhang Lang, so that they could develop it according to the theory, and now Huaxia's scientific and technological capabilities are equivalent to the level of the middle of the twentieth century in later generations. There are three sources of funding: those related to national security and military are funded by the Ministry of Households, those involving civilian use are funded by various businesses, and those involved in basic research are all funded by the Shaofu. There are dozens of scientific research institutions established by private businesses, all over China, and students who graduate from Huaxia University every year are sought-after and popular everywhere. In the later stage of development, each state of Huaxia established its own state universities and vocational schools. Education goes deep into the pavilion level, and the teaching staff are all students who graduated from universities in various states, monks, Mojia, Legalists, Taoists, etc., and teach the basic life, literacy, modern literature (language), mathematics, basic physical and chemical knowledge, and the funds come from the imperial court and the states, counties and counties, and there is a hard proportion in the constitution formulated by Ouyang Xuan that the proportion of education expenditure in the state and the counties and counties shall not be less than two percent of the tax, and the inspection of the imperial history will not be supervised from time to time, and anyone can directly go to the Ministry of Household to impeach this matter, and the proportion of public utility expenditure shall not be less than forty percent, The taxes paid to the imperial court only need to be paid by each prefecture and county. Originally, Ouyang Xuan wanted to set up a money bank, because the conditions were not yet ripe and he was worried about the formation of a monopoly, so he could only put forward the concept for the time being, and encouraged the private big businessmen to jointly establish a money bank, which would be managed by the household department in a unified manner.
In the afternoon, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites came to report: Dong Zhongshu and the three of them want to see His Majesty, and they are already waiting in the National Assembly Hall, and all the princes of the DPRK and China have arrived. Ouyang Xuan didn't want to pay attention to these three people, and just send them away, but now he had to come to the Chaohui Hall, which was a standard conference room for the future. Nearly ten meters of rectangular desk is placed in the middle, flanked by beautifully carved backrest chairs. This is the place where Ouyang Xuan convened the heads of various ministries and the three provinces to hold a small court meeting. Ouyang Xuan entered the hall and sat down on the main seat, waved his hand to let the official who got up to give the salute sit down, and placed the sword and the desk on it. Dong Zhongshu and the three of them were arranged by the officials of the Ministry of Rites to sit on the right side, on the left were the chief officials of the six departments of the three provinces, and the four department secretaries sat on the right side, holding a pen and writing on the paper. The first on both sides of Ouyang Xuan were the crown prince and the grandson.
"Dong Gong is in a hurry to see me, what's the matter?" Ouyang Xuan asked as soon as he sat down.
Dong Zhongshu was still very uncomfortable with this kind of conference room, so he got up and bowed, and Ouyang Xuan motioned for him to sit down with his hand and said. "Your Majesty, the Huaxia Kingdom is a vassal of the Han Dynasty, but now there is no ancient precept or preemptive system in terms of etiquette and official system. Strange * ingenuity to log in to the professor of the book, insulting the literati of the family, the study of literature and endowment to the untouchables, let us and the untouchables on the same footing, is the Huaxia Kingdom insulting my thousand-year-old Chinese civilization? People have dignity and humility, the young and the young are orderly, and now there are only the eldest and the youngest in Huaxia, and there is no distinction between the upper and the lower. It is very insulting that the meal will be eaten at the same table, and we should eat at the same table with the low-ranking officials. The reason for the changes between the people and the heavens and the earth has the intention of exploring the heavens, and going against the heavens is against the way of heaven. Wind and clouds, thunder and lightning are all the way of heaven, very people can understand, and now the Huaxia Kingdom has openly granted it to the untouchables, so what is the power of the current Han Emperor and His Majesty? Iron things, on their own rails, speed and horses, greedy for the work of the sky, is also unforgivable. Walking according to the heavens should follow the ancestral system, respect the ancient rites, distinguish between the upper and lower respects, the noble and the low, and act according to the ranks. Now even the Hun barbarians can enter the hall to learn the Han and the earth, which is insulting to the people of the world."
"Shut up, remember that you are a great Confucian in the Han land, and I will spare your life for the time being. What is the dignity and humility, the divine authority of the monarch, a bunch of nonsense. Life is waiting, but still humble? Don't forget, now the clothes are all created by the untouchables in your mouth, and the protection of the territory is also done by the untouchables of yours. Don't forget that Wei Qing of the Han Dynasty, Master Father Yan, and Gongsun Hong are also from untouchables, and don't use your sour and rotten texts to stain the prosperity of our Chinese country." Ouyang Xuanqi slapped his palm on the table, and the teacups on the table trembled.
"Your Majesty, literacy and hyphenation is a skill relied on by the literati of the family, and now that the people have taught it, Zhong Shu thinks that it is really inappropriate, so that our literati lose their reliance, how to stand in heaven and earth? What Your Majesty said is that everyone is given by the mandate of heaven, and God has given His Majesty and the Han Emperor the monarchy, why do you still go against the sky and explore the heavens and go against the grain? His Majesty's face is permanent, and it is also a God-given order, so why talk nonsense? Another "Dong Zhongshu's words have not finished speaking, when he hears Cang Chang, Ouyang Xuan is already drawing his sword in his hand. Suddenly jumped to the table, his sword fell, Dong Zhongshu's head rolled off the ground, and blood gushed out under the strong pressure, staining Ouyang Xuan's body.
Wiping the blood on his face, Ouyang Xuan jumped off the table and kicked Dong Zhongshu's corpse, "If it weren't for the fact that I knew Confucianism, I would definitely be confused by you." Someone came, pulled Yan Qing and Ouyang Sheng down and beheaded, and the people who followed him were immediately caught, leaving a living mouth, and put them in the Han land, and reported to the Han Court." "No!" , the pro-soldier and the military department Shangshu Li Mao handed over the order.
"Your Majesty, by all means," Yan Qing and Ouyang Sheng shouted with weak legs and weak feet. But it was already too late, Ouyang Xuan returned to his seat, put his sword into the sheath, and ordered the meeting to be dismissed. In order to completely destroy the influence of Confucianism on the Huaxia Kingdom, when they set foot in Huaxia, they were already doomed to death, but Ouyang Xuan didn't find a suitable opportunity, and he wanted to give up this idea, and now Dong Zhongshu's utilitarian rhetoric of maintaining the family gate valve completely angered Ouyang Xuan and the courtiers of Huaxia State, and death was inevitable.
If it weren't for Ouyang Xuan's presence, I'm afraid it would be possible for the three of them to be dismembered, they are the group of people who know Ouyang Xuan the most, and they are also the group of people who know the origin of Huaxia Kingdom today. Ouyang Xuan's order was carried out to the letter, except for a young Confucian scholar who was released back, everyone else was beheaded and put in the city, which was also the first time that such a large-scale beheading was carried out since the founding of the Chinese People's Republic of China. In the past, at most one or two people were beheaded in a year. A storm swept through the Han dynasty as the young Confucian returned to Chang'an. Since then, Huaxia has completely severed relations with Confucianism, and some Confucian scholars who had fled here were also found out and sent back to Han.
But these have nothing to do with the Huaxia Kingdom, now the emperor of the Huaxia Kingdom wants to drive the expedition in person, the news soon spread to the Xiongnu army, the elderly Yi Zhixian heard the news, the expression was extremely lonely, and ordered the release of the captive Chinese slaves, the army took advantage of the heavy snow to close the mountain before the rapid retreat to Mobei, relying on the geographical advantage of the defense. When the news reached Xia Gu, Ouyang Xuan slowed down his preparations for the expedition, preparing three sets of cotton clothes, a set of down jackets and pants, as well as cold-proof hats, gloves, and leather boots for each soldier. With rubber, the shoes were replaced with the kind of military cold-proof leather boots in later generations, and Ouyang Xuan's requirement was to be able to withstand the cold of minus 50 degrees. By the time everything was ready, it was the end of the year, and a grand departure ceremony was held in Summervalley City. Ouyang Xuan only brought Huyan Leopard and Dai Zhan with him on this expedition, and the other generals strictly guarded the border passes of the Han Dynasty, and recruited several guides who were familiar with Mobei in the single place of the former Xiongnu prince. The ceremony was specially held the public sacrifice ceremony of Lang oath Zhang Scissors, posthumously sealed Lang Oath Ning Gong, Zhang Shear Wei Gong, standing statue and meritorious pavilion, worshiped by future generations, and now there are Nie Hire, the main father macro portrait.
Under the calculation of Sima Ji's master Gaotu, he found an auspicious day of the zodiac, took a train to Houxia County (the territory of King Zuoxian, now Hulunbuir), and under the guidance of the guide, he and Wulun Lake went west along the Gonglu River to attack Mobei. The desert here is narrow, and it is also the passage through which King Zuo Xian and Shan Yu used to communicate with the royal court. The "desert" of this era refers to the desert that lacks water sources, similar to the Gobi Desert, which is easy to get lost, with high temperatures and drought in summer and unusually cold winters. It is divided into gravel desert and desert. Gravel desert, also known as Gobi, is divided into two kinds: accumulation and wind erosion, the accumulation of Gobi is mainly gravel, sandy soil, generally seen in the foothills of the inclined plains, such as the Altai Mountains, Altun Mountains; The source is the rock debris weathered and eroded by the mountains, which is transported out of the mountain by flowing water, and is deposited at the foot of the mountain with the sudden decrease of the flow rate. The formation of a large area of alluvial fans of tens to hundreds of meters; Due to the many rivers in the foothills, the water conditions are good. The accumulation time is short, the surface of the gravel is not fully painted, it is difficult to form desert patent leather, and the surface retains the gray-white color of the original accumulation, also known as "white Gobi". Wind erosion of the Gobi: The surface material is a thin gravel layer, the thickness of which is about the maximum diameter of the gravel; The lower part is a mixture of gravel and earth-like deposits, also known as "false Gobi". It is distributed in the high plains, away from the accumulation areas of the foothills, and there are areas of seasonal precipitation, forming the Gobi steppe, which is part of the desert steppe belt, which is mainly distributed in the central part of the Mongolian plateau. Then there is the desert, due to the scarcity of precipitation, the wind is further weathered by the Gobi, the Han-Hungarian border from east to west has Hulunbuir Sand, Horqin Sand, Hunshandak Sand, Ulan Buhe Desert, Badain Jaran Desert. The desert and the Gobi formed a natural barrier under the backward technical conditions of the Han Dynasty, protecting the nomads in the northern Mobei region. In addition, the people of the Central Plains hated the bitter cold land, and they also ignored it and had no precautions. caused the re-rise of the Xiongnu in the late Western Han Dynasty and the Wuhu Chaohua, if there was no Ran Min, there would be no Han people in Jiangbei. Due to the contempt of the Central Plains Confucianism for the Mobei people, the emphasis on literature over military force, and the stiflation of science and technology, there was the rise of Liaojinmeng, and finally there was no China after Yashan, and there was no tragedy in China after the end of the Ming Dynasty.
When traveling west along the Gonglushui (now the Klulun River in Mongolia), Ouyang Xuan was also thinking about how to change the tragedy in history, the Xiongnu must be driven out of the east of the Ural Mountains, the Xianbei people and the Fuyu people, and now they are still very honest, Ouyang Xuan has an idea, that is, these peoples who will threaten the Central Plains in the future will be relocated to Australia, which has just been incorporated into the territory, he does not dare to guarantee that his descendants are all wise, and the current grandson Ouyang Mao is much worse than his father.
Although the weather is very cold, the Huaxia Army has done a good job of cold protection, covering aluminum alloy armor and wearing down jackets. He wears a leather hat lined with a steel helmet, a cotton scarf around his neck, windproof and breathable glasses, thick lint gloves, and thick water-draining boots with a rubber lint soles on his feet. Although it looks bloated, these are the best guarantees at low temperatures. Two sets of down sleeping bags per person can withstand the low temperature of minus 50 degrees. For these down products, there are only a few ducks and geese in Huaxia that still have quilts.
As soon as the brigade of men and horses walked out of the Gobi Desert for 500 miles, the captain of Tanma came to report, "Your Majesty, it has been found from afar that in the mountains a hundred miles away, Captain Zuo Dadu led the headquarters and 100,000 elite soldiers of Zuo Xian Wang, Zuo Gu Liwang and Huyan Wang were stationed to meet the battle. There is little snow in the mountains, and there seems to be a hot spring here."
"Just in time, I took them and ordered the whole army to march thirty miles, deep ditches and high villages, to prevent night attacks and camp." "No!".
