Chapter 236: Sacrifice to the Tomb of King Yu
The land of Sanyi, the Vietnamese army camp, Xingyuan.
Yun Chang is discussing the war on the front line with Lu Ming, Shi Mai and other ministers.
Dasi Kou Luming took out a notice, handed it to Yun Chang, and said with a solemn face: "Great King, this is a notice that Wu Jun recently posted in Huiji, Juwu and other places. β
"Wu Jun wants to take in the displaced people of our country, give them rations, farming tools, and land, and help them build houses and rebuild their homes, and their hearts can be punished!"
"Humph!"
Yun Chang snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Qingji Xiao'er, wolf ambition, he is treating my Li Shu of Yue Country as the Li Shu of their Wu Kingdom!" β
"However, the source of all this is caused by the invasion of the Wu army, Qing Ji is so gracious, will I be grateful to him?"
At this time, Yun Chang was more or less weak in his heart.
He didn't expect Qingji to be so generous!
The Yue State is now pursuing a scorched earth policy, clearing the wilderness with strong walls, striving not to leave a grain of grain for the Wu army that cut down the Yue, and even burning the houses and crops of Li Shu excessively and relocating them to the mountains.
In this way, the Yue people, who were originally hostile to Wu and loyal to the monarch and patriotic, were inevitably shaken by Qingji's pacification methods.
As for Qingji's means of buying people's hearts, Yun Chang disdains it on the surface, but in fact he panics in his heart.
"My lord, please forgive your remarks."
Lu Ming sighed and said, "The two armies of Wu and Yue fought a big battle, and in the end, it was Li Shu of our Yue country who suffered!" β
"Now the Wu army has been frustrated in the land of Sanyi, and it is not possible to advance an inch, and there are not many soldiers to fight in our country. In this case, why didn't the king take this opportunity to negotiate peace with Qingji? β
"Peace? Great Sikou, what is the difference between negotiating peace at this time and begging? β
Yun Chang gritted his teeth with hatred and said, "There are still more than 10,000 people in my Yue country, and they can afford to fight." The widow can rely on the advantage of the terrain to hold on to the Wu State for three years, five years, ten years! The widow can afford it, can the celebration be affordable? β
"King, the husband should be able to bend and stretch, and the humiliation he has suffered today is only for the shame of the coming day!"
Lu Ming persuaded bitterly: "I, the Yue people, are hiding in the mountains, waiting for an opportunity to move, and it is indeed possible to contain part of the forces of the Wu State. However, what is the difference? β
"The Yue Kingdom was finally destroyed by the Wu Kingdom. In this case, why doesn't the king surrender to Wu for the time being, and wait for the future to rise again? β
Hearing this, Yun Chang gritted his teeth and said, "I cross the country, do I still have a chance to rise?" β
"As long as the king is still there and the Yue people are still there, the Yue country will not perish!"
"If you seek peace with the country of Wu, what should the widow give up?"
"First, it is called a tribute. Second, with his wife and children, he entered Wu as a minister for three years. Third, it can make Qingji return to the sentence for the king to establish a new capital. Fourth, the soldiers and horses were removed to paralyze the Wu people. β
Hearing this, Yun Chang bowed slightly, but he had to say suspiciously: "Da Sikou, Qingji has never been a person who suffers. The return sentence is not in Yue Guo, can Qingji agree? β
"Juwu is already a scorched earth, what good does Wu Guo want? If the king is worried that Qingji will not be able to agree to this peace, why doesn't the king bribe Wu Guodian's guest? β
Lu Ming pondered for a moment and said: "Bo Ming, this person is a greedy minister of the Wu State, greedy for money and profit, known as notorious, but he is favored by Qingji. If I can leave a lot of money to my uncle and let him speak well, I will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! β
"Good."
Yunchang finally agrees with Luming's proposition.
Indeed, if the war is stalemate, it will not be a good thing for both Wu and Vietnam.
Wu Guo is good to say, but only a part of the troops will be trapped in the Yue land, and they will be prepared for the invasion of the Yue people at any time, which may consume a lot of manpower, financial and material resources.
Here in Yueguo, but the really barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and they are stalking, just to die with the Wu people.
However, if this is the case all year round, it is estimated that Yue Guo will not be able to stand it.
For this reason, Yun Chang could only take advantage of the fact that he still had soldiers under his command who could fight and some bargaining chips to ask Wu for peace.
He doesn't want to be in the middle of poor mountains and bad waters all the time, to be a Yue king who is in exile and has no fixed residence!
β¦β¦
At this time, Qingji didn't know that Yunchang was preparing to make peace again.
Qingji is holding a grand sacrificial ceremony in the tomb of King Yu in Huiji Mountain.
Huiji is named after Huiji Mountain.
Legend has it that Xia Yu has the name of Huiji Mountain, which means accounting.
The original name of Huiji Mountain was Maoshan Mountain, because Dayu toured the south of the year, where he would be the princes of Jiangnan, the big accountant, the lord was virtuous, and the seal was meritorious, so it was renamed Maoshan and said Huiji.
The Yue country is located in the southeast of Yangzhou, its ancestor is the Xia Dynasty monarch Shaokang's concubine Wuyu, is one of the direct descendants of Dayu.
Yue and Qi country, Zhangguo, Bao country, etc. are all divided by the descendants of Dayu.
Therefore, the monarchs of the Yue Kingdom actually undertake the task of sacrificing and guarding the tomb of King Yu.
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo......"
The melodious and solemn sound of the horn brightens the entire Huiji Mountain.
The horns used by the guards of the Wu Kingdom are different from those used in ordinary wars.
This horn is made of bamboo, leather, copper horn, and screw horn, rather than ordinary animal horns.
Such a horn belonged to the honor guard used by the monarch when he traveled, and the length was about one person high, more than seven feet, and two guards were required to carry one in front of one and one behind, one on his shoulder, and the other behind him.
After the horn sounded, Qingji, who was wearing a crown dress and a flat heavenly crown on his head, got off the chariot and went straight to the altar under the support of a group of ministers of the guard.
This time, the celebration was done in strict accordance with the rules and regulations of the Zhou ceremony.
The crown dress of the monarch cannot be used indiscriminately, so the crown dress used for the king's sacrifice appeared in the Xia Dynasty, and the Shang Dynasty may have had a crown dress system, and the Zhou Dynasty customized and perfected it.
There are six types of tiara grades from high to low, mainly distinguished by the number and length of the "ζ" on the crown and the type and number of "crests" decorated on the clothes and clothes.
But it's all black tops with red bottoms, the so-called Xuanyi Clothes!
And Qingji wears a crown.
This kind of crown dress is used by the king to sacrifice the ancestors, and the shooting is used, with seven crowns, Xuanyi and silk clothes, the clothes are painted with three chapters of Chinese insects, fire, and Zongyi, and the four chapters of embroidered algae, pink rice, ι»Ό, and ι»» are four chapters, a total of seven chapters.
Dayu is not the ancestor of Wu, and he is not the ancestor of Qingji, but he can't stand Dayu's merit in controlling the water, and for thousands of years, he is deeply loved by the world.
Qingji sacrifices Dayu like this, in fact, there is nothing wrong.
"Sorakuβ"
When Qingji stood on the altar with a solemn expression, the pawn who was in charge of presiding over the sacrificial ceremony made a loud announcement.
The musicians, who were already ready, immediately played the instruments in their hands, the striking, the chimes, the drums, and all kinds of instruments were pouring beautiful notes.
"Danceβ"
Under the altar, the dancing girl in water sleeves suddenly came out, with the music, dancing her waist, and between a smile and a smile, it was endlessly memorable.
