Chapter 9 Chang'an is the capital

readx;? Only then did Jiang Ziya declare to King Wen's father and son: "Your Zhou Dynasty can only produce forty-eight emperors, and there are eight hundred and eight years of rivers and mountains." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Ji Chang and his sons were dumbfounded, regretting that they didn't take another few hundred steps.

After this incident, Jiang Ziya was respected as the Grand Master.

This seems to indicate that Jiang Ziya has the ability to predict. "Qiankun Wannian Song", rumored to be written by Jiang Ziya, where 770 words, is the "three major prophecy books" (the other two major prophecies are the Tang Dynasty Li Chunfeng's "Tui Bei Tu" and the Ming Dynasty Liu Bowen's "Song of Baked Cakes", among the three major prophecies to "Tui Bei Tu" is the most miraculous, and even predicted to the world) The earliest appeared, it started from the origin of the universe and framed a 10,000-year-long historical march.

Jiang Ziya was ambitious in his old age, practiced martial arts for Ji Chang, worked hard, and planned to overthrow Di Xin and use the Zhou Dynasty to Shang.

Ji Chang and Jiang Ziya secretly planned how to implement the virtuous government to overthrow the Shang regime, many of which were scheming and tricks with soldiers.

Jiang Ziya assisted Ji Chang to accumulate virtue and cultivate virtue, and to practice benevolence; externally, he urged Ji Chang to contact other vassal states that were not very satisfied with the king of Zhou to pay tribute to him, so that the king of Zhou relaxed his vigilance; internally, he set the policy of loving the people, doing things that benefit the people, advocating production, and training soldiers and horses; so that later generations who talked about the way of using soldiers and the secret power of the Zhou Dynasty respected Jiang Ziya's basic strategy.

Ji Chang issued a decree on "the death of the desolate", stipulating that slaves should be searched if they fled, whose slaves belonged to whom, and no fugitive slaves were allowed to be hidden. So the princes rebelled and returned to Jichang.

In the thirty-second year of Emperor Xin, the weather of the five-star alignment appeared, and red crows appeared in the ancestral ancestral hall of the Zhou Kingdom.

There are red black gathered in the Zhou Society.

The Mi (Lingtai, Gansu, a branch of Xirong) invaded the country of Ruan (Pingliangjingchuan County, Gansu), the country of Ruan was wiped out, the Ruan people scattered, and the descendants took the country as their surname, which was the source of the surname Ruan. After the secret people annexed the Ruan State, their strength increased greatly, posing a threat to the Zhou State located in Guanzhong, and the Xibo Ji Chang Shuai Division crusaded against the secret people, which was Ji Chang's first personal expedition, and Jiang Taigong was the mastermind, which was also a test for Ji Chang to him.

In the thirty-third year of Emperor Xin, the Mi people were defeated by Zhou Shi. Ji Chang moved the capital of the Zhou State from Qi (Qishan County and Fufeng County, Baoji, Shaanxi) to Cheng (Xianyang, Shaanxi), after which Ji Chang did not take into account the Ruan people's demand for the restoration of the country, and included the Ruan land in the territory of the Zhou State.

At this time, the main force of Di Xin's army was fighting fiercely with the Dongyi tribe in the southeast, and he couldn't pull out his hand at all, and Mi (Xirong's one) attack on Shang's vassal state Ruan was regarded as ignoring Shang.

Emperor Xin was rewarded, but also because of Ji Chang's previous performance, won the trust of Emperor Xin, probably because of the temporary inability to restrain the Zhou State, so he ordered Xibo Ji Chang (plus nine) Xi to agree with Ji Chang to be the king, and gave Ji Chang the bow and arrow (shi) axe (yuè), so that Ji Chang had the right to conquer the power, which was the right that Ji Chang's father Ji Li had obtained, and Ji Chang got it again, so that from now on Zhou could not notify the king of Shang first, and he could fight the princes on behalf of Shang. It can be said that Zhou has taken another big step forward on the road to success, and it is the most important one. And Jiajiu tin has also become a landmark step for the ministers to become emperors.

"Historical Records of Zhou Benji" records that there was a dispute between the vassal states of Yu and Rui, and there was a lot of trouble, and there was no way to ask Ji Chang for arbitration. When I went to Zhoudi, I saw that the people of Zhou were humble to each other, and they were very ashamed, and said: "What I am fighting for, and what I am ashamed of by the Zhou people, what do I do, I only humiliate my ears." "Mutual courtesy, to the state of Zhou to show surrender. When the princes heard about this matter, they came to Ji Chang for judgment whenever there were contradictions and disputes. At this time, Ji Chang was still a prince Xibo, but he had become a moral model for the princes of the world.

Ji Chang was the ruler of Qingping, especially after the land dispute between Ming and Rui, and was praised by the world as the mandate of heaven. The lawsuit of Xibochang and Rui has also become a landmark event, and the Zhou people call this year the first year of Xibochang's appointment. From this year (1129), Xibochang was officially called king, and the princes of various countries also supported it and called him King Wen of Zhou. At this time, King Zhou Wen was 83 years old and Jiang Shang was 82 years old.

In the thirty-fourth year of Emperor Xin (the second year of King Wen of Zhou), the Zhou division suddenly captured Qi (qi, also known as Li, so the purpose of Fangdi, Shanxi Changzhi Lucheng) and Yu (Yu, Xingqiu, Henan Jiaozuo Qinyang City) country, and then waved his army to attack the Chong (Xi'anhu County, Shaanxi) country that had reported Ji Chang to Emperor Xin, Chongguo was surrounded by Zhou's forces on all sides, only because of the close relationship with Emperor Xin before, it was able to restrain Zhou, but now the main force of Shang is in Dongyi, can no longer protect Chongguo. Chongguo eventually surrendered.

As mentioned earlier, one of the edicts in Xirong was defeated by two generations of Shang kings Wu Ding and Wu Yi and naturalized as the vassal state of Qi, since the naturalization, its leader even served as the western history of the Shang Dynasty, participated in the war, worked hard and was deeply used, and was one of the important allies of the Shang Dynasty. After the rise of Zhou, he also became an important helper for the Shang king to defend against Zhou in the north.

After Chongguo was annexed, Di Xin understood Ji Chang's wolf ambitions, but it was too late, the Zhou State was already big, and the main force of the Shang Dynasty was not there, Di Xin could only expect Zhou to not know the internal emptiness of Shang, and could only reprimand a few words weakly, and King Wen easily resolved Di Xin's reproach with Chongguo Guojun's unreasonableness and the establishment of Chongguo Guojun's younger brother as the new king, and Chongcheng, who was originally pro-Shang, became a loyal supporter of Zhou. Moreover, it relieved the trouble of Zhou's henchmen and cleared the last obstacle for Zhou's forces to advance eastward.

The annexation of Qi and Qi removed the threat to the west of the west and the south of the river to the east of Zhou, and directly threatened the Shang king Wangji from the north and west.

In December of the same year, Kunyi (a branch of Xirong) became strong again and invaded the Zhou territory, and the two sides began a three-year war.

In the thirty-fifth year of Emperor Xin (the third year of King Wen of Zhou), the Zhou State was greatly reduced due to disasters and the invasion of Kunyi affecting the harvest, resulting in ******.

In order to ensure the food supply of the imperial court, King Wen of Zhou decided to move the capital from Cheng (Xianyang, Shaanxi) to Feng (west bank of the Feng River in Chang'an District, Xi'an, Shaanxi), renamed Fengyi, and began large-scale construction, which was the beginning of Xi'an becoming an ancient capital.

In the first month of the spring of the thirty-sixth year of Emperor Xin (the fourth year of King Wen of Zhou), the princes came to pay tribute to Zhou and obeyed the leadership of Zhou. Kunyi was repulsed, and the three-year war ended.

King Wen of Zhou sent his son Ji Fa to build a pickaxe (east bank of the Feng River in Chang'an District, Xi'an, Shaanxi).
