Chapter Twenty-Four: The spring breeze of reform is blowing all over the ground, and the first person to bet on it in reverse

The brilliance of the god list faded.

was so troubled by the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, the Beihai army immediately surrendered, and they were scared to death, and they couldn't even hold their weapons steadily, how could they fight?

The Great Shang army has made great contributions, but it is Jiang Ziya, who stopped the slaughter of the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit at a critical moment.

Guang Chengzi and the other golden immortals fell, saluted Wen Zhong, and looked at Jiang Ziya: "Ziya, as the master said, you will get something after you go down the mountain!" ”

"Don't dare, don't dare, thank you Senior Brother Guangchengzi for your help!"

Jiang Ziya was a little cramped, and subconsciously wrapped himself in a robe, reluctant to give up.

Not only did he miss the majestic means of resisting the enemy that he had just mastered, but also the feeling of exploring the mysteries of heaven and earth, which fascinated him.

There has never been a moment when he feels that it is good to be a human being, to explore the infinite wonder in a limited life, and it is not necessary to be immortal to achieve the greatest meaning.

Shen Gong Leopard: "Ė„ã¸ Ė„"

Well, he's been ignored again.

I was used to it before, but this time I witnessed the power of the humane robe, and Shen Gongbao's heart was also hot, and he was even more determined in his previous thoughts.

One day, I want you to be impressed with me!

Guang Chengzi quickly left, continuing to catch the enemy in a group, Wen Zhong came to the Beihai army, and suddenly looked not far away.

Yuan Futong walked over alone: "Master Wen! ”

Wen Zhong raised his eyebrows: "Marquis Yuan, you escaped back from Donglu?" ”

"Jiang Huan Chu is old, he is no longer the Dongbohou of the past, he should have abdicated a long time ago."

Yuan Futong smiled, and at this juncture, he still didn't forget to cooperate with Jiang Wenhuan, and sighed again: "But Wen Taishi's treasure knife is not old, and my Beiyuan is still defeated after all!" ”

Wen Zhong knew that the Beihai rebellion was to fight against the oppression of Donglu, so he stroked his beard and said: "Come with me to Chaoge to see Your Majesty, this battle has not ruined the lives of people, Your Majesty is benevolent, maybe you will be relieved of your sins, removed from the position of princes, and demoted to civilians!" ”

"Master Wen is pretending to be confused, from the moment I liberated the slaves, the civil and military ministers couldn't tolerate me, and my entry into the court song would only be a dead end, and it would involve the whole family!"

Yuan Futong shook his head, and suddenly bowed: "Master Wen, after I die, please keep my family safe!" ”

As soon as Wen Zhong was about to bend down to help, he saw that blood had spread out from under Yuan Futong's forehead.

The head of the seventy-two princes of the North Sea seems to be out of breath.

"Alas......"

Wen Zhong showed sadness.

He was not only sad that this ambitious and capable prince committed suicide, but also saddened that he might not be able to fulfill the other party's last wish.

Those nobles will indeed not let go of Yuan Futong's relatives, and they will definitely use the most cruel methods to inflict harm in order to set an example.

All Wen Zhong could do was to instruct the disciples on the left and right for the time being: "Place the body of Marquis Yuan well!" ”

The war subsided, and this expedition first solved Jiuyi's Wushenwei, and the other party was completely finished this time, and then defeated the Beihai army, with a perfect record.

Of course, the placement of more than 200,000 slaves and surrendered troops is also a big problem, and I don't even know how many will run away along the way, no matter how powerful Wen Zhong is, he can't stop this, only the class will consider it after returning to the court.

However, as soon as Wen Zhong transferred the army, he received news from Donglu: "Jiang Wenhuan inherited the position of Dongbohou? ”

Under normal circumstances, this is not in accordance with the rules, although the position of the princes is hereditary, it must also be recognized by the Shang Emperor.

But when the big war comes, sometimes you can't take too much care of it.

What's more, Jiang Wenhuan was originally the heir of Donglu, and it would not be surprising if Jiang Huan Chu really wanted to abdicate and pass on to this capable son.

Thinking that Jiang Wenhuan was still the younger brother of the current queen Jiang, Wen Zhong was not ready to question anything, so he went back and told him together.

But Wen Zhong never expected that the real turmoil was still to come.

Soon, Donglu's reforms and reforms spread to all vassal states at an unprecedented speed.

"Follow the example of Beihai, liberate slaves, transfer into the army, and make military exploits as a military and civilian, and you can be turned into a civilian!"

"Jiang Wenhuan, Zhuzian dares to do this! Shaft Ann dares to do so! ”

I don't know how many places, the angry voices of the nobles were heard.

The impact is completely different.

One is the barren land of the North Sea, and the princes of the seventy-two roads combined, there are only 30,000 soldiers.

One is the richest vassal state in the world, and in Donglu alone, there are more than a dozen cities and countless villages.

Because when Donglu reformed, not only did the slaves of Beihai pour into the land of Donglu in ecstasy, but also radiated to the surrounding areas, causing waves of resistance and escape.

â€Ļâ€Ļ

Kitahara.

Dongbohou Chonghou Hu looked at the head in front of him, and spit out a cold voice from between his teeth: "Are these cheap slaves still on the run?" ”

The subordinate stepped forward tremblingly and said: "Last night, according to statistics, another 3,000 slaves escaped, and we only intercepted less than 500 ......."

Chonghou Huhu stood up and let out a cruel smile: "Okay! All right! Then Benhou will continue to kill until they no longer dare to escape, or they are all dead! ”

"Brother, this is a matter of will, not a good strategy!"

At this moment, Chonghei Tiger walked in.

He had a red gourd hanging from his waist, but he was dressed as a Taoist.

This is also a disciple of the sect, although it is an outer gate, and he has not yet become an immortal, but at this moment, he took off the gourd on his waist, opened the reed cover, and a black gas rushed out, accompanied by a hoarse hissing sound, a divine eagle spread its wings and flew out.

"This is the Iron Beak Divine Eagle, an ancient beast, which can be seen for thousands of miles, brother, please see!"

Chonghei Tiger pointed at it from afar, Chonghou Tiger only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and his vision was rising rapidly, and it was indeed like a torch, with the help of the eyes of the Divine Eagle, he looked at the land of the Northern Plains.

Compared with the prosperity of Donglu, villages are built around the city, and the northern plains are really poor, except for the city where Chonghou Hu is located, there are only four or five small cities, all of which are in the south area.

Donglu, Nanjiang, Xiqi, Beiyuan, where the four princes are, from the name, can also roughly judge whether rich and barren or not, Donglu first, understandable, Xiqi has a tendency to catch up, but at present it still fails to catch up, Nanjiang is more miasma damp poison, Beiyuan is the most desolate.

However, the number of slaves in the northern plains is the largest, because ordinary civilians are not willing to come to this ghost place to live, work and build, and everything is inseparable from slaves.

Now Chonghou Hu is anxious to see that the outbreak of slave rebellion everywhere in the Northern Plains has caused great chaos, and the operation of the entire vassal state has almost come to a standstill.

It can be seen from this that if the slaves are really completely reversed, the North Plains will be the first to finish, and if the slaves are killed, the North Plains will also be the first to finish.

The Dao method is beneficial, and watching it at a glance is more effective than a thousand words, Chonghou Hu finally calmed down and took a deep breath: "What long-term plan do you have?" ”

Chonghei Hu said: "Now it seems that there is no other way than to reform the system and keep the slaves!" ”

Chonghou Hu gritted his teeth and said: "Black Tiger, you won't be deceived by that Chaoge's school palace, what kind of humanity and righteousness do you want to pursue?" ”

Chonghei Hu shook his head: "Brother, we can't afford to lose slaves in Beiyuan, I know you want to wait until Donglu is destroyed, but now Donglu is becoming stronger, even if he was besieged by the major princes in the past and indeed perished, but by that time, Beiyuan will also be finished, and your position as the four major princes will not be able to be kept!" ”

After hearing the last sentence, Chonghou Hu's cheeks suddenly twitched, he was used to being powerful, but he was not used to being a small prince and being oppressed by other princes.

Chonghei Tiger knew that his brother was shaken, so he struck while the iron was hot: "What's more, our reform is also good for resisting the invasion of the dogs!" ”

The Dog Rong were the earliest nomadic people outside the Saiwai, and compared with the Jiuyi, they had no fixed residence, more harsh living conditions, and more brutal behavior.

Every time a city or a small vassal state is captured, it will be burned and plundered on a large scale, and the slightest resistance will be slaughtered.

The northern plains are now barren, and it is also related to the frequent crossing of the border.

The situation of not being rich in the first place is even worse.

Chonghou Hu's hatred for the dog Rong is no less than that of the slaves, and after hearing this, he nodded: "This is a way, if this group of cheap slaves can really resist the invasion of the dog Rong and let them become civilians, it doesn't hurt!" ”

Civilians can come and go freely, but the rules are rules, and if you really want to operate, Chonghou Hu has a hundred ways to make those slaves who turn into civilians inseparable from Beiyuan.

It is equivalent to having an empty name, but no reality.

But Chong Heihu knows that being able to be famous is already a huge progress.

When the sparks gather into rolling waves and rush forward, the obstructors naturally become insignificant.

Under the persuasion of Chongheihu, Chonghou Hu announced the restructuring and became the second of the four princes to support the new policy.

As soon as this news came out, the world was shocked again.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that your thick-eyed Chonghei Tiger betrayed the ancestral system?

And the slaves of the northern plains really didn't run away, after all, the long journey, for the slaves, the probability of death is too great, and they can have the identity of civilians in their original hometown, who wants to run away?

Chonghou Hu did what he said and began to organize into the army, and the number of the army was constantly expanding.

Ten thousand! Twenty thousand! Thirty thousand......

In the end, 80,000 slaves formed a standing army, guarding the border of the northern plains, guarding against dogs, and practicing day and night, with momentum like a rainbow.

The effect of this change was immediate.

Only three months later, the Inujon habitually came to plunder the border.

When looking at the fierce smoke and dust in the distance, the soldiers of the northern plains trembled, and could barely hold their weapons.

In this era, the cavalry is really terrible, those steppe horses step on the vigorous pace, roaring the majestic spirit of shaking the earth and the mountains, the tall and mighty barbarians shout to the sky with a majestic battle cry, surging and noisy, tearing the vastness, and killing in unison.

is only a few hundred horses, but it can create a momentum comparable to tens of thousands of foot soldiers, who can resist this?

Slaves can!

They were also afraid, and their hands trembled with their weapons, but the desire for freedom finally overcame these fears, and they lined up to meet them in battle formations that they were not yet proficient in.

Bang!

Flesh and blood splattered, and in the mad laughter of the barbarians, the first soldiers flew up to death like clay figures, unable to directly attack them.

But the barbarians soon discovered that the remaining soldiers did not flee as usual, but stood up and stabbed them with their spears.

At first, they did not care, relying on the speed of the horses to slaughter, so that the death continued to expand and ravage back and forth.

But these cavalrymen were too excited, too deep.

When he came to his senses, hundreds of cavalry had been drowned in the sea of soldiers, and ten soldiers pounced on one cavalry one after another, if not, then twenty, thirty!

If I am not free, I would rather die!

In the end, this lightly defeated dog cavalry was eaten instead, and when the barbarian's corpse was lifted high, the border of the northern plains erupted with earth-shattering cheers.

In all fairness, in the case of lack of equipment, the advantage of cavalry over soldiers is still overwhelming, but in this era, the cavalry of the dog Rong is also a scarce treasure, there are not too many, and the number of good horses is even more precious.

When the total loss of various places exceeded 1,000, they were so heartbroken that they could not breathe, and immediately withdrew their troops, not daring to carry out this kind of lose-lose style again.

Kitahara's record shocked the Quartet again.

This time, I have tasted the sweetness of reform.

As a result, the third one in southern Xinjiang responded.

The environment in which Nanbohou is located is even worse, with poor mountains and bad waters, and insects everywhere, but there are also a large number of cultivation treasures, and seventy percent of the cultivation materials obtained in the territory of Dashang are from southern Xinjiang, but they are also collected by countless slaves who paid their lives.

Now, through the reform, the slaves have become medicine collectors, although the heavenly materials and earth treasures produced still have to be handed over, but they can get a part of the profits, and at the same time, the disciples of the school palace have also gone to the south of Xinjiang to teach them the skills of collecting medicines.

So much so that Nanbohou Chongyu soon discovered that the profits earned by such a model were actually even more.

The great thing is that he is energetic, and he immediately became the most active promoter of reform.

For a time, the spring breeze of reform blew all over the land, and the people of Dashang were really angry.

The tide has risen.

â€Ļâ€Ļ

Xiqi.

Xibohou Mansion.

Ji Chang is located in the right position, and at the top sits his mother Tairen and Yuan Concubine Taiji, and more than 90 sons stand in many rows, and at a glance, the scale is very spectacular.

The first few people are the elegant Bo Yi Kao, the heroic Ji Fa, Ji Xian, Ji Dan and other brothers in the top ten.

Coupled with the many courtiers of Xiqi, such a gathering together shows the seriousness of the situation.

The other three realms are all reforming and changing the law, and Xiqi is quiet, as if it has been disconnected.

No way, Xiqi can't be.

When Ji Chang first served as Xibohou, because his father was imprisoned and killed, his position was not stable, in order to rectify the rule of officials, Ji Chang took strict measures against the phenomenon of slave escape, large-scale inventory of fugitive slaves, and ensured that the slaves were handed over to their owners after pursuit.

Later generations were the census, he was a slave census, in this era without household registration, it was not easy to really implement, but it was Ji Chang's efforts to implement it, and it was unanimously supported by the nobles, which played a great role in consolidating the rule.

When Ji Chang sat firmly in the position of Xibohou, he began to punish carefully, reduce the punishment of slaves, and turn to love the people like sons, and the implementation of various policies was the best time to unite every stratum around.

The nobles trusted him, the commoners loved him, the slaves feared him, and every initiative could be supported to the greatest extent, and Xiqi had the potential to take off.

In terms of governing ability, the gap between Di Yi and Ji Chang is about as big as ten kings.

However, in this way, Xiqi's current prosperity is based on the detailed management of slaves, and it has become the most unlikely vassal state to change the system.

Fortunately, after the previous slave census, coupled with the farthest distance between the east and the west, and the news blockade, the slaves in Xiqi are still living their daily lives, and there is no momentum of riots.

But paper can't contain the fire, and it won't be long before the wave of reform in full swing outside will spread to the territory of Xiqi, and those slaves will know that the slaves of other vassal states have the opportunity to become free, and the previous torture can still frighten them?

But even so, Ji Chang still said in a categorical tone: "The law of the ancestors is immutable, and I, Xiqi, should follow the ancestral system!" ”

As soon as these words came out, sure enough, all the ministers in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, and then they became united and unanimous to the outside world.

General Nangong Shi said: "Master Hou, our primary crisis now is how to repel the dogs!" ”

Speaking of the dog Rong, it can be said that it is the old enemy of Xiqi, in history Xiqi created the Zhou Dynasty, it sounds like an eight-hundred-year dynasty, but it is divided into the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, three hundred years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Tianzi is still the real Son of Heaven, supported by all the princes, to the King of Zhou, no matter whether the story of the princes of the beacon fire drama is true or false, from his generation, the dog Rong invaded the capital, the King of You was killed, the authority of the Zhou family disappeared, entered the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and was played by the overlords of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States in turn.

Therefore, the real reign of the Zhou Dynasty, in fact, was more than 300 years, he flourished and declined, although it was not conducive to the suppression of the domestic princes, but the dog Rong also gave a hard knife, this kind of nomadic people who came and went like the wind, the threat to the farming people was indeed too great.

Xiqi was strong before, and the persimmon picked up the soft pinch and went to plunder the northern plains, and now the northern plains take slaves as an army and guard the border, like a hedgehog, after the dog Rong was pierced, he immediately turned to Xiqi.

Nangong Shi's worries were completely reasonable, if Xiqi was attacked by the dogs, and the other vassal states were given another eye medicine, then their armies would definitely not be able to cope with the attack from both sides.

Seeing that the generals were worried, Doctor San Yisheng proposed: "Master Hou, if you want to solve the danger of my Xiqi, you also need His Majesty the King of Xuan to make an order!" ”

Historically, when Ji Chang was imprisoned in įž‘ (yĮ’u), it was this person who admonished Ji Fa, asked for the world's beauties and treasures, and presented them to King Ji, ransomed Ji Chang, and later destroyed Shang by King Zuowu, and was one of the four friends of King Wen alongside Nangong Shi.

He took the initiative to ask: "I am willing to enter the court song, the pain is terrible, and I have the will of His Majesty, so that I can set things right!" ”

Ji Chang thought of His Majesty the Human Emperor who was smiling and smiling, and he was not optimistic in his heart, but he also nodded: "Then please ask Doctor San!" ”

The ministers have discussed it several times, but since the law is not changed, there are really not many strategies that can be implemented, and they will eventually disperse.

Ji Chang looked at the empty lobby, the look in his eyes was still firm, and the phoenix qi on his body spread his wings, igniting an unprecedented brilliance.

Is it really flying high?

Or is it a return to the light?

Only time will tell!

â€Ļâ€Ļ

Biyu Palace.

The eyes of the Tongtian Sect Master fell on the territory of Dashang, and saw that the major princes were not the same, intertwined, and disorganized, and then looked at Xiqi up and down, Fengming Qishan, still the same, combined with the development in the strategy, I finally made a decision in my heart.

He summoned Duobao Daoist and Our Lady of Jinling, and ordered: "Xiqi was originally returned by the mandate of heaven, and now you have the ability to act as a businessman, you should enter Xiqi and help Ji Chang's father and son, in order to meet the mandate of heaven!" ”

Our Lady of Jin Ling was stunned: "Master, I heard that Zhong is the teacher of the Great Shang State, and I teach my disciples to be officials in the Great Shang, why do you want to help Xiqi rebel?" ”

The Tongtian Sect Master said coldly: "If the King of Xuan expels Wen Zhong from the court and the opposition, it is the best, if not, you should not have any scruples, this is the Immortal Dao Killing, if there is half a thought and the friendship of the same family, the end will be extremely miserable!" ”

Duobao Daoist and Our Lady of Jin Ling gritted their teeth when they saw what the master said, and hurriedly lowered their heads.

The Tongtian Sect Master said again: "There are thirteen thousand two hundred and seventy-two tips here, and the instructions of the teacher are all on it, you each take it and distribute it to all the disciples of the inner and outer gates, after opening it, you must follow the above!" ”

Duobao Daoist and Our Lady of Jin Ling each held a thick stack of brocades, and their whole heads were invisible, but their hearts were warm.

Shizun is really good to his disciples, and with the care of Chaoyuan Daluo, he is still afraid that he will not win this battle?
