Chapter 871: Worth It
Luojia Lake has a very special significance, whether it is for Chu or Ning, or for Heiwu.
Chu has been dead for hundreds of years, there are no Chu people in the world, after Chu Jianlian's father died, it should be the last person who recognized himself as a Chu person and also withdrew from the historical stage, Chu Jianlian did not recognize Chu or Ning, only recognized the Central Plains, I have to say that this is still the influence of the obsession of the Chu royal family for hundreds of years on Chu Jianlian.
Why did Chu Jianlian hand over the Emperor Yun Sword to Emperor Ning Li Chengtang in the first place?
Chu Jianlian didn't think about the righteousness of the family and the country, he didn't think he was a saint, and handed over the imperial fortune to Li Chengtang, the biggest significance to him was...... Put it down.
Also for proof.
It proves that if he is willing, if he is careful, he will definitely kill Emperor Ning, whether it is Li Chengtang or Li Chengtang's brother Li Chengyuan, Chu Jianlian can kill him.
He doesn't kill, it's righteousness, but he doesn't think so about himself, his own unwillingness is his own unwillingness, what's the matter of righteousness?
He's just sick of the so-called fate.
Chu Jianlian is not a god, he is a somewhat lazy and rebellious person, and of course he is not an ordinary person.
Four hundred miles south of the ancient city is Luojia Lake, that is a mark, for Heiwu it is a mark of glory, for Chu it is a mark of shame, the current Daning border is in Hanhai City to Xifengkou line, to the north is Heiwu, but when Chu established the country, the national border line is north of Luojia Lake, before Chu, Zhou Tianzi also cruised Luojia Lake, and left a good story of Tianzi patrolling the border to shock the barbarians on the shore of Luojia Lake.
In fact, at that time, the Heiwu region could indeed be called a barbarian land.
Zhou is very big, so big that Zhou Tianzi doesn't know how big his country is, because it is too big and the imperial power is weak, so it is inevitable that Zhou will be divided and divided by the princes, but this area of northern Xinjiang is bitterly cold, which prince is willing to guard this?
has spent his life defending the country, but it is other people who benefit, and if he doesn't do it, he will stab him in the back.
Over time, Zhou's territory was actually shrinking, and even so, by the time of Chu, Luojia Lake was still Chu's territory...... Luojia Lake was named after Zhou Tianzi, and now the three-eyed Hushan Pass and other ancient cities that the Ning army has beaten down, including the East Ma City and the North Ma Ancient City that have not been beaten, these are all within the territory of Chu.
These place names are all place names in the Chu period, and after the rise of the black warriors, they snatched these places from the hands of Chu, and in order to humiliate the Chu people, they did not even change the place names.
The Chu army fought a decisive battle with the Heiwu people in the wilderness north of Hanhai City, and was defeated, losing 200,000 elite soldiers of the border army, and the vitality of the border army was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to recover.
At that time, there were ministers of black martial arts who made a proposal to the Khan Emperor and renamed Luojia Lake as Chuchen Lake, which was homophonic for Chu submission to humiliate the Chu State.
Emperor Heiwu Khan laughed and said: "If you change your name and humiliate it, the Chu people will only remember the hatred, and feel less shame, it is not enough, I have to help them remember the shame and courage, anyway, I am not afraid, I sent a letter to the Emperor of Chu, telling him that in order to thank the Emperor of Chu for his generosity, the land he donated will not change the original name, so that the subjects of Heiwu will be grateful for the benevolence and generosity of the Emperor of Chu for a hundred years and thousands of years in the future, so that the people of Heiwu will remember that this is a gift from the Emperor of Chu every time they mention the name of the place." ”
Such a letter of state was really sent to the capital of Chu State, Ziyucheng, and the Emperor of Chu vomited blood after getting the letter of state, and he couldn't afford to get sick.
After that, more than once, the Chu army tried to snatch back this thousand-mile territory from the hands of the black warriors, but it was all empty after all.
Daning established the country, inherited the land of Chu, and also inherited the hatred of Chu.
The founding emperor of Daning once said that the hatred between the Central Plains people and the black warriors will never be resolved, and the Central Plains people will never become friends with the black warriors.
Now Daning's Northern Expedition army has reached other ancient cities, and other ancient cities are the dividing line...... From other ancient cities to the south, thousands of miles of land, all of them used to be Chu land, and all the tribes in this place were Chu ministers.
If Ning finally defeated all the other ancient cities to the south, then this hatred that had accumulated for nearly a thousand years could be regarded as a solution.
It is no longer just the hatred of the Chu people, but also the hatred of the Ning people, and the hatred of all the Central Plains people.
At that time, Chu ceded thousands of miles of land north of Hanhai City to the south of the ancient city to Heiwu, which was not all the loss, but also directly led to the division of the grassland, and now the northwest grassland owned by Daning is only a slight shortage of two-thirds of the grassland owned by Chu at the beginning, and the other third is outside the Qilian Mountain, which has a gap in the Qilian Mountain, which is nearly 100 miles wide, and divides the grassland into two parts.
After the defeat of the Chu State, the Heiwu State supported the tribes of the northern grassland against the Chu State, so that more than one-third of the grasslands north of the Qilian Mountains became independent, and the independent tribes supported Yuan Yan Fuduo as the king, and called the Black Wu Dynasty, and the Black Wu State sent a large army to assist Yuan Yan Fu Duo to defeat the army of the inner grassland, and finally the outer steppe established the Black Mountain Khanate, Yuan Yan Fu Duo was the first generation of the Black Mountain Khan.
Including the Montenegrin Khanate, the Chu period discarded a total of thousands of miles of territory, nearly one-seventh of the Chu land.
Later, because of disappointment with Chu, a large number of people from the inner steppe fled the Qilian Mountains to the side of the Black Mountain Khanate, and the population lost millions.
At this time, Yuan Fuji, who was a minister by the side of the Heiwu Khan, defected on the steppe, but he defected to the Montenegro Khanate only a few years ago, and when it comes to his escape from the steppe, it must be mentioned that the forbidden army marched west.
A few years ago, someone on the grassland secretly formed an alliance to kill Da Ai Jin Yun Sangduo to stand on his own, His Majesty Li Chengtang of the Daning Emperor was furious, and ordered the forbidden army general Xiahou Zhi to lead the forbidden army of 10,000 elite west expeditions to the grassland, this battle, Daning's forbidden army killed tens of thousands of people on the grassland, and those tribes that secretly ally collapsed, and the leader of the largest tribe was killed, almost extinct.
And Yuan Fuji is the one who escaped from this tribe, Yun Sangduo cooperated with the forbidden army to sweep the grassland, Yuan Fuji could only escape from Qilian Mountain and run to the Black Mountain Khanate in one go, because he knew too much about the grassland, and the King of Montenegro recommended him to the Black Martial Capital.
Therefore, the battle of Daning's northern expedition is not only the fateful battle of the Central Plains and the Heiwu people, but also the fateful battle of the steppe people, Yun Sangduo selected his most loyal generals to lead 100,000 grassland cavalry to the northern Xinjiang, and the king of Montenegro was ordered by Samburu to send more than 100,000 elite Montenegrin to assemble in Yeluyuan.
Don't be an ancient city.
There are mountains outside the city, and there are endless forests above and below the mountains, and the scouts of the Ning army have never slackened, expanding the search area around the ancient city, and before getting a reply from Hanhai City, the Ning army in the ancient city will no longer easily launch an offensive against the camp of the Black Martial South Courtyard, His Majesty the Emperor judges, even if he does not attack, Samburu will come.
Shen Leng has been idle in the past few days, and the war has ended, he did not let his soldiers continue to train, and let the soldiers rest for a few days, while he and Meng Changan took the scouts to explore around every day.
Don't be an ancient city, the general's mansion.
The emperor lived here, and the internal guards of the general's palace were all forbidden troops.
No one knows, how did the middle-aged man in a cyan robe enter the ancient city, and how did he appear outside the gate of the General's Mansion, he stood there, quietly looking at the gate of the General's Mansion, without saying a word, but the soldiers of the forbidden army guarding the door were a little panicked, this panic was not afraid, but a kind of unbelievable, how did this person easily walk outside the gate of the General's Mansion?
The general of the forbidden army, Yutai Kusano, walked out of the general's mansion quickly and looked at the middle-aged man
People suddenly reacted.
"Mr. Chu?"
In the hunting ground that year, he had seen Chu Jianlian in the hunting ground, when he was still a captain of the forbidden army, and witnessed the battle between the general Yuanshu and Chu Jianlian, it was not a fierce and not magnificent battle, but he knew that the general could not be calm for a long time after returning home.
Because of the fear of the Yuan Shu of the Black Martial Arts, the Black Warriors called it invincible in the army, and even the general of the Southern Academy of the Black Martial Arts, Su Gai, was in awe of the Yuan Shu of the Tai Dynasty, and he once said that fighting alone, on the battlefield, no one was the opponent of the Yuan Shu of the Tai.
But in the battle in the hunting ground, Yuan Shu didn't see any hope of winning, and of course he wasn't defeated.
It was precisely because he knew the impact of that battle on the general that Yutai Caoye was so surprised when he saw Chu Jianlian, he stepped forward quickly, raised his hand and took off the iron helmet, and then saluted Chu Jianlian with the courtesy of the younger generations of the rivers and lakes.
Chu Jian was stunned: "What is your relationship with me?" ”
As a general of the forbidden army, Yutai Caoye will not salute Chu Jianpiao, take off his iron helmet, and salute with the younger generations of the rivers and lakes, so as not to hurt the military prestige and not lose his manners.
"The younger generation is surnamed Yutai."
Chu Jianlian suddenly said: "I see, the general's martial arts are invincible on land." ”
Yutai Caoye was overjoyed, thinking that Mr. Chu's evaluation of the general was so high.
Chu Jianlian said lightly: "However, I can barely fly some." ”
"......"
Light Gong Leap, in the eyes of ordinary people, is flying, ordinary Jianghu Ke's light Gong body method can make the people breathtaking, Chu Jianlian cultivated martial arts like this, he said that he could barely fly some...... It's not bragging, if he performs, he can pass two or three feet in one step, and it's not suitable to fly.
Chu Jianlian asked, "Your Majesty is here?" ”
Yutai Caoye pressed his hand down, and motioned to the forbidden army behind him to put down the crossbow.
"What do you mean by Mr. Chu?"
Chu Jianlian was still bland: "I just wanted to ask him, did the Emperor Yun Sword bring it." ”
A long sword flew out of the courtyard and slammed at Chu Jianlian's feet, the sword was not unsheathed, but it was also poked into the ground, and it was inserted diagonally, Chu Jianlian looked down, it was the Great Chu Emperor who he gave to Emperor Daning.
"I have never broken my trust in the world, so how can I lose my trust in you?"
The emperor walked out of the general's mansion, the forbidden army immediately became nervous, and everyone once again put the crossbow up at Chu Jianlian, and the grass wanted to block in front of the emperor, but the emperor shook his head slightly: "No need." ”
Chu Jianlian bowed slightly: "Your Majesty." ”
The emperor smiled: "Mr. Chu, you have been in the Black Martial Arts for a long time. ”
Chu Jianlian replied: "I can do my best." ”
The emperor sighed: "People in the world know the four words within their ability, but few people can do what they can do the four words, if everyone can do it, it is a peaceful and prosperous world." ”
Chu Jianlian smiled and said nothing.
"Come in and have a drink with me?"
"Huh?"
Chu Jian was stunned.
The emperor turned around and walked back: "Don't be stingy, Shen Leng married you should stay and have a glass of wine, but you left, so you owe me this glass of wine." ”
The corners of Chu Jianlian's mouth rose: "Then you should drink." ”
The emperor snorted: "You should be fined three glasses first." ”
Chu Jian smiled pitifully: "Three cups will be drunk." ”
The emperor said: "I and you are in this ancient city at this time, isn't it worth your drunkenness?" ”
Chu Jianlian thought for a while and replied seriously: "It's worth it." ”
