Chapter 458: Sending Troops

【The Great Qian Dynasty Seeks the Huns】

[The Huns, who have lived in the barren land of the Western Regions for generations, scavenged and eaten for a living, are the lowest and most lowly people, since the founding of Taizu in the Huanyu has always groveled, flattering and flattering, serving lambs every year, herding cattle to please the king, all because of the good heart of my emperor, it is not easy to survive, and from time to time to help the lining can survive, for thousands of years, generations have been favored by the emperor, and the tooth of the Heavenly Dynasty has gradually grown, so as to win the life of people]

[However, it has long been arrogant and indulged in the grace of heaven, since the Jianming Emperor ascended the throne, violated my border, harassed the people on my border, plundered property, and even harmed the lives of the border people, pity the people on my border and did not enjoy the wealth of the world, and was tortured by this thief to death, Emperor Jianming has always been angry since he learned of this, and the emperor who loves the people like a son can be described as angry when he sees this situation, even if he wants to raise a large army, destroy his country, and avenge the suffering people on my border, but there are ministers who think that their country is difficult after all, and they have surrendered to our country for a long time, and they have been sons for many years, How can I be malicious, every time I plunder, it is a cold winter, I think that his country is a barbarian, I don't know how to count etiquette, I don't understand human ethics, and this behavior may be caused by the difficulty of the mirror, so I advise Your Majesty to value peace, and don't ruin the friendship between the father and son of the monarch and the minister for thousands of years]

[My emperor remembered that even if there was a conflict between the father and the son, the great cadre was the father, and the Xiongnu were the children and grandchildren, and the children and grandchildren had, although no matter how angry they were, they should not be killed, after all, they were people, not livestock, so they listened to the minister's opinion, and let people warn the Xiongnu of strange things, and then help their country through the difficulties of its winter]

[However, the monstrosity of the generation does not understand the kindness, my emperor this great grace, he is ignorant, repeated offenses, my emperor several times read the minister's words and endure again and again, want to be reasonable, talk about the kindness of father and son, so that he repented, and lost this thousand years of friendship]

[However, such repeated indulgence has made the untransformed generation of the Huns arrogant again, repeatedly violated the border, and mercilessly attacked in the battle of the nations, so that several fledgling people with fatherly love in our dynasty lost their guard, and were accidentally attacked by it in the battle and lost, which is already an intolerable thing, after this year, the champion of Jinke Li Mingsheng was smart, even if he was tolerant of his father's love, he was attacked by him, but he still defeated the small Hun country at the time of the battle, so that he was resentful, and he sent a spy to deceive Li Kui, and Li Kuishou angrily refused, With the knife of the people of the Western Regions, the knife of the Li people is not unfavorable, and the arrogance of the people is not bad for the family of spies, but the Huns are narrow-minded and bold, and they actually stabbed Li Kuishou in broad daylight and the street in the capital, fortunately, Li Kuishou is strong in martial arts, and the elders of the division are properly guarded, and he kills the assassin on the street in anger! 】

[A small country, dare to assassinate the champion of Jinke in the capital, Wenqu Xingjun is a nobleman, it is really intolerable to heaven, Emperor Jianming sent an envoy to the Xiongnu to inquire in case it was a private matter, but he never thought that the Xiongnu royal court dared to kill our country to make it in court! 】

[Since the establishment of the Dynasty, the mighty earthquake in the sea, the military pressure of the world, the supreme and noble, in this small country is really the Heavenly Dynasty, now the Jianming Emperor penance to cultivate the civil and military, the whole civil and military, and accumulate money and food, the soldiers in the army are waiting for the Dan, the swords and guns are shining cold, the scribes in the Hanlin have studied the military for a long time, and the military books are piled up like a mountain! 】

[The sky collapsed and the earth was destroyed, the king was angry and his subordinates died, this crime is unforgivable, the anger of the sky collapse should be stained with blood, so he sent a message, telling the world, today to conquer the Huns, that is, the sunrise heavenly army, the angry conquest of the country, do not destroy and do not return! ] 】

In the eastern country of the Blue Star, there are two countries that are at war without cutting the tradition, but the tradition of the Blue Star is slightly different from here, and the two countries are at war without cutting the main thing is to inherit the ancient war culture, which was formed from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Since the Western Zhou Dynasty, there has been a very special emphasis on waging war. The reason why King Wu of Zhou wanted to crusade against Di Xin was because King Wu of Zhou thought that Di Xin was "out of his way". Because of the "loss of morality", it is reasonable to unite with the surrounding princes and tribes to jointly crusade against the Shang king, who is the supreme slave owner.

On this basis, the Zhou Dynasty established a very complete set of human etiquette order, that is, "Zhou Rites". Zhou Li not only stipulates the various norms of life, but also the norms of war.

Some people may not understand that war is irrational, cruel, and anti-human, so why should war be regulated? In fact, to be precise, the so-called war at that time referred to disputes between princes. After all, the princes are all a family, all under the unified leadership of the King of Zhou, and they are not enemies who are incompatible with life and death. Therefore, using rules to deal with disputes is actually the best way.

In addition to the clear regulations on war in Zhou Lili, we can also see traces of this rule of war in the documents left by the ancients. For example, in "Cao Di's Polemic", there are several details that are reflected. "The public rides with it, and the battle is in the long spoon". What we are talking about here is actually ancient warfare, and it is necessary to specially select the place of operation. For example, "Qi people three drums", Qi people beat the drum three times, but because Lu people did not move, Qi people were not easy to attack. Obviously, that's a rule. Including Cao Di asked Lu Zhuanggong what to rely on to fight, the reasons that Lu Zhuanggong said were actually a kind of rule.

Also, when Song Xianggong was fighting against the Chu State, he had to wait for the Chu State to cross the river, set up a formation, and then fight them. Later generations did not understand and felt that Song Xianggong was pedantic. In fact, Song Xianggong was just a manifestation of abiding by the war etiquette at that time.

In this kind of war etiquette, it contains "two countries fight each other, and they do not kill each other".

Although in the Western Zhou Dynasty, a set of war etiquette was formed. But from the end of the Spring and Autumn period, this etiquette of war was disrupted. War is a rampant way of warfare, emphasizing strategy, emphasizing the direct goal of defeating the other side, regardless of etiquette or reason. Moreover, this method of warfare is talked about and admired and envied. Those who fight in this way are called the saints of seekers, saints of soldiers, gods of soldiers, immortals of soldiers, and so on.

Originally, at the same time as this kind of etiquette was lost, "the two countries should fight each other, and they should not behead them" should also be lost. However, in ancient times, warfare also paid attention to a spirit and a heroic spirit. If you kill the envoy, you show a kind of timidity. And on the battlefield, without courage and fearlessness, the army loses its soul, and there is no way to fight again.

Of course, the so-called "two countries will fight each other, and they will not be killed" is not absolute. Sometimes, cutting it is not a show of timidity, but a manifestation of spirit.

For example, when the Mongols attacked Diaoyu City in the Southern Song Dynasty, they asked envoys to send a message to Diaoyu City to make the Song army surrender. However, the Song army beheaded the envoy and hung the head of the envoy on the head of the city, expressing their determination not to surrender.

Also, after Genghis Khan's caravan was robbed in Khorezm, Genghis Khan sent an envoy to Khorezm to negotiate, but the Khorezm people cut off the envoy's ear and put him back as an insult.

So, it's not absolute at all.

In addition, the function of the envoy is to send letters. It is not offensive in itself and does not carry weapons. It is despicable to kill someone who is not aggressive. It's like killing unarmed women and children on the battlefield.

Originally, the arrival of the envoy made it possible to spy on the military situation. But on the battlefield, what is often done is a battle of wits and courage. A wise man often counts what he does. It is deliberately to release some information that is both true and false, so that the people will be deceived. So as to achieve the goal of paralyzing the enemy. For example, "Jiang Gan's book theft" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a famous example of giving full play to the role of envoys.

That's why they won't kill.

But in this world of cultivating immortals, the two countries are at war without fighting, which is regarded as a matter related to the dignity of the two countries.

The envoy of every country symbolizes the dignity of each country, and it is the untouchable bottom line that belongs to a country and even the nation of this country, and killing the envoy is equivalent to completely humiliating the dignity and face of the country from beginning to end.

Raid the border, lose the battle, buy and assassinate the champion of Jinke, and then behead the envoy of the Heavenly Dynasty.

The anger of the people was already extremely dissatisfied under one extreme crime after another, and first there was the proclamation issued by Li Ming in his personal name, and then there was the official state edict promulgated by Emperor Jianming in the capacity of the imperial court, which instantly caused the people in the dynasty to obey the war and regard the crusade against the Xiongnu as a first-class event.

The people's aspirations, the spirit converges, wisps of peculiar energy seem to be converging, and there is a golden air floating in the sky above the Daqian Dynasty from time to time.

On the day of the release of the "Essay on the Huns", the Daqian army immediately went out, neatly arranged, and violently attacked the Xiongnu territory that had already been explored like a torrent.

At the same time, with the release of the text, the Xiongnu court was also angry.

"Daqian is the father, the Huns are the son, I want to see who is the father and who is the son!"

"All the sons and daughters are on the horse, and I will kill all the cadres!"

Openly called the country of children in the text, the Xiongnu royal court was furious, roared fiercely and launched the Hun cavalry, and brazenly attacked the incoming Daqian army.

After several years of cultivation to enhance the strength, the strength of the Xiongnu Dynasty has long been different from what it used to be, coupled with several victories in the battle competition, so that the confidence of the Xiongnu has greatly increased, and they do not feel that they are much weaker than the big cadres now.

The Great Qian's prestige has been accumulated for a long time, although the text is ugly, but in fact, in the past thousand years, their Xiongnu are the sons of the Great Qian Dynasty......

In the case of such martial arts of Daqian, taking advantage of the current fatigue, he saw a glimmer of opportunity, and immediately and decisively launched a temptation, if it succeeded, this was the only chance for their Huns to turn over and become kings!

Therefore, even if it is a little empty, but in the face of not grasping this opportunity and decisively launching an attack, it will be a surrender and oppression for an unknown amount of time in the future, and there is no chance of rising, the Huns will naturally not wait for death, and are willing to fight brazenly!

After all, before Emperor Jianming ascended the throne, they did not have the slightest opportunity to plunder the border of Daqian.

The benefits brought by the plunder touched the greed of many Huns, and this illusory opportunity was in front of them......

"Take me to see the Black Xuan Ancestor!"

A look of hideousness flashed on the Hun King's face, and then he was fiercely suppressed, and after announcing that he was facing the army of the Great Qian Dynasty, he immediately commanded in a low voice.

Hearing Hei Xuan Ancestor, a trace of fear and more fanaticism flashed in the eyes of the soldiers below, and they immediately turned around and opened the way, and the Hun King followed the soldiers quietly, all the way out of the palace, and came to a magnificent building in the center of the Xiongnu King City.

"Hal asks to see the Black Xuan Ancestor!"

Outside the gate of the building, facing the gate that was not defended by anyone, the king of the Huns did not dare to make a mistake, but knelt on the ground and respectfully opened his mouth to the gate.

"Do you want me to help you solve the Great Pioneer Ancestor?"

The voice of the king of the Huns fell, and before he could breathe, a hoarse and playful voice sounded in his ears: "You want to use me?" ”

"Don't dare to do this, the Daqian Dynasty has pressed my clan for thousands of years, Emperor Jianming has long had the intention of devouring our clan, if you don't take this opportunity to solve the Daqian, our clan will be completely swallowed up by Daqian in the future, and then there will be one less place for your hiding place, and the blood and food that my clan sacrifices for you is not given by other clans!"

The king of the Huns knelt on the ground, his head was next to the ground, and his voice was unhurried: "This is the only chance for my clan to turn the tables, if you win, you will sit in the vast world, no matter how much cultivation needs can be satisfied, the richness of the territory of Daqian is enough to support all your needs, otherwise, it is just a trapped beast in captivity, sooner or later, there will also be death." ”

"The envoy of the Great Cadre dares to openly tease my princess in the royal court this time, whether I kill it or not, he will inevitably find an excuse to attack our clan, the result is the same, this time the Great Cadre has arrived, if you are willing to shoot, there is still a chance to fight, if you are unwilling to make a move, then the Huns will be destroyed, and your blood supply will be gone!"

"The ancestor of Daqian's development is invincible in the world, but that was three thousand years ago, and now, he has not broken through to the Jindan realm, Shouyuan will definitely be exhausted, and only you can stop him."

"Whether you want to make a move or not is all in your thoughts, I just came to tell you about this matter, whether to go or stay, so that you can make a choice as soon as possible."

The king of the Huns opened his mouth unhurriedly, and after speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, motionless.

The majestic hall was silent, and the Hun King seemed to be silent after speaking.

It wasn't until a long time later that a voice suddenly sounded from the ears of the Hun King.

"Boy, although I was seriously injured by the righteous attack, but in the end, it is Jin Dan, so don't show too much caution."

With the voice, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of the Hun King, and a ghostly light appeared on his wrinkled face: "The ancestor of the Great Qian's development is invincible, that is in the realm of foundation building, when you meet Jindan, no matter how strong the foundation is, what about it?" ”

"It doesn't matter what you think, but if it's done."

Heixuan Old Ancestor looked down at the Hun King who was kneeling on the ground, revealing his white teeth: "I'm going to eat human souls for three days!" ”

"Especially your royal bloodline!"
