Chapter 534: Sacrifice to the Heroic Soul
On the 1,800 steps, in front of the magnificent Heroes Memorial Hall, surrounded by a huge black banner with the word "sacrifice" written on it, fluttering in the spring breeze, indicating that the heroes are immortal and the spirit is eternal.
Amid the solemn trumpets and golden drums, a solemn memorial ceremony was underway.
In front of the monument, there is a circular altar. Three animals, five grains, jade, and white cloth are displayed as sacrifices. Surrounded by armored warriors, holding sacrificial flags. Inside, there are civil and military officials wearing Han dresses.
Hua Xin, as the celebrant of ceremonies, presided over the ceremony. He stood on the side of the altar and shouted, "Your Majesty is here to worship the soldiers!" ”
Hundreds of officials, the literati are on the left side of the altar, and the warriors are lined up on the right. And the civil and military forces under Qin Feng are ahead of the hundred officials.
Emperor Han Xian, who was alone in front of the altar, walked over slowly, he didn't want to come, but he still came. He took the incense candle from Hua Xin's hand, he was very unwilling to worship the soldiers of the Qin army, and he looked hesitant in the face of the altar.
At this time, I don't know Hu Che'er walked out from there again, and secretly waved his hand and clenched his fist at Emperor Han Xian.
Emperor Han Xian was startled, and he scolded in his heart: "The hateful Qin Zijin, with such despicable subordinates, it can be seen that you are a person!" However, he was frightened by the torture methods of the black-clothed guards, and Chrysanthemum felt pain for no reason, and hurriedly bowed down.
Emperor Han Xian was just a passing scene, Hua Xin grabbed the incense in his hand, carried it behind his back, and threw it in a secret place.
Emperor Han Xian saw that he couldn't even go up the incense, so he held back his anger and retreated to the side.
Eighty percent of the officials saw this, as if they didn't see it, because they were in their hearts. Qin has replaced the Han Dynasty. Just like the officials of the Cao Wei family in later generations.
Twenty percent of the scholars saw this. is still like Cao Wei in later generations when he coerced the Son of Heaven, he dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
Xun Yu stood in a very high position among the officials of Qin Feng's lineage. His face was a little pale. His nephew Xun You whispered on the side at this moment: "Four hundred years ago, Han can replace Qin, and four hundred years later, Qin can also replace Han." The lord is the immortal holy lord, who promotes the prestige of China and expands the territory for the people ......of China. ”
"Expand the territory ......." Xun Yu's face finally improved.
At this time, solemn music sounded, and Hua Xin bowed loudly and said: "Please Prime Minister, pay tribute to the soldiers of our army who are not afraid of sacrifice and fought bravely in previous wars...... ”
"Hmph......." When Qin Feng stepped forward. Emperor Han Xian on the side tilted his head slightly.
Qin Feng walked to the altar, his expression was heavy, and the scenes of soldiers rushing to kill in blood echoed in his mind. "Fight for the Lord!" The chilling cry seemed to sound again.
I don't know when, Qin Feng already had an extra handful of incense sticks in his hand.
"Summoning the Heroic Soul, a bow!"
"The deceased lasts forever, two bows!"
At the end, Hua Xin shouted: "The heroic spirit is immortal. Youwu Huaxia, three bows! ”
Qin Feng bowed three times, each time heavier than the last. At this moment, how much he wanted to be with these soldiers who had fought and lived together. But. He can't ...... yet. He swore that he would use the knowledge of later generations to make China strong at this time. Let the Chinese family. Stand on top of the world.
"The heroic spirit is immortal, bless me Huaxia!"
"The Heroic Spirit is immortal. Youwu Huaxia! Inside and outside the cemetery, 100,000 soldiers raised their arms and shouted. In this cry, the heavens and the earth were changed.
"Long live the Prime Minister!"
"Long live the soldiers!"
"Hooray......!" Outside the cemetery, hundreds of thousands of people chanted. They know very well that today's happy life is not easy to come by, and this qiē is the respected prime minister who led the soldiers of the Qin army to exchange their lives and blood. At this moment, how could they not shout!
In the midst of this call, the memorial service continues .......
Blood is a special kind of sacrifice. The ancients believed that blood has a soul, and that blood can sustain the life of a person or animal, and that once blood is lost, it means injury or even death, as if blood has a magical power.
The blood of the sacrifice was human blood and the blood of animals.
"Zhou Li. "The Great Uncle" once said: "Sacrifice the Sheji with blood".
The blood sacrifice is covered with a drop of blood on the ground, penetrates into the ground, and reaches the gods.
This method was never advocated in later generations, but it was an irreplaceable and sacred way in ancient times.
Roar~, in the sound of the tiger's roar, a colorful tiger, under the control of the two generals Dian Wei and Xu Chu, was forcibly dragged to the altar. This king of beasts, helplessly scratching the tiger's claws, left deep marks on the bluestone ground. However, it had to bow its noble head before the altar of the Heroic Spirit.
The color of the hundred officials changed, they only saw the slaughter of pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, and they had never seen the sacrifice with the blood of Wang Hu.
And the eyes of the soldiers of the Qin army flashed with excitement, only Wang Hu's blood could match the wiped away heroic soul!
However, Qin Feng put an end to Wang Hu's blood sacrifice.
In the puzzled eyes of everyone, he strode forward and took the jade knife from the altar. Under the astonished gaze of the people, he stretched out his left arm, went out of the vein of his left hand, and cut it hard.
Under the shocked gaze of everyone, bright red blood gushed out.
Qin Feng cut his veins, his eyes were deep and heroic, he let his blood spill on the altar, raised his right fist, and shouted: "In the past, the sages sacrificed with blood, and today they sacrifice with blood, and sacrifice to the martyrs!" He looked at the mausoleum in the forest in the distance and shouted: "Although the original phase cannot be with you at this time, the blood of the original phase will last forever with you!" ”
Hua Xin, the celebrant, never thought that the Lord Guild would do this. His eyes at the moment revealed fanaticism, he picked up the jade spoon that exuded a moisturizing aura, knelt in front of Qin Feng, and carefully caught the hot blood that kept gushing out. When Qin Feng's blood was filled with the jade spoon, and when his blood was poured into the "Heart of the Heroic Soul" in the center of the altar, his blood penetrated into the ground with this deep heart eye, reaching the Yellow Spring.
No king has ever sacrificed with his own blood. Because, they think that they are the sons of heaven, the sons of heaven, and every qiē on earth is their appendage.
Inside and outside the cemetery, the shock in the eyes of 100,000 soldiers was replaced by fanaticism, they raised their sharp blades in their hands, raised their arms and shouted, "In my name, fight for the Lord!" Bless me Huaxia, forever! Bao Wu Sheji, die a well-deserved death! ”
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
"Fight!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Heaven and earth were dimmed in the cries of the warriors.
Even Zhao Yun and other generals couldn't help but chant with the soldiers. And Xu Shu and other scribes worshipped. They seemed to have seen that the battle flag of the lord was fluttering throughout the land of China, and fearless warriors gathered under this battle flag. Bless Huaxia and live forever!
Dian Wei and Xu Chu unconsciously let go of the shackles on the tiger, and this king of the jungle, in the voice of the Qin army, has become a well-behaved big cat.
In this call, Qin Feng opened his arms that could contain the world, and his blazing tiger eyes were full of ambition to swallow heaven and earth. The little bit of blood that fell to the ground glowed red in the sun.
At this moment, he is the king here, he is the supreme king!
On the side, Liu Wei, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was already crumbling at the moment. In this call, he seemed to see with his own eyes that the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Han family were leaving him. Looking up, the mighty battle flag fluttered, and the huge word "Qin" on it was so dazzling.
"Qin Zijin ......." The emperor of the Han Dynasty slowly closed his eyes, he didn't want to open them anymore, he didn't want to see the figure that made him angry. He didn't want to hear his people cheering at another person.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty also had the ambition of Zhongxing, and he also had die-hard courtiers such as Ma Riyan. However, in the face of the general trend of the times, this qiē seems so pale and powerless. They, the widows of these decaying dynasties, can only look forward to the ethereal hope.
However, that ethereal hope is gradually converging.
Because, Qin Feng's strong rise under the repeated measures in the north made the princes in the south frightened.
At the same time, Xuchang City, Cao Cao's mansion.
In the conference hall, the valuable civil officials under Cao Cao gathered, including Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Man Chong, and Liu Ye. There are also the four generals of the Cao family, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong.
"My lord, the text has been completed, please take a look." Guo Jia said.
Cao Cao took it and looked at it, Guo Jia's talent did not need to be questioned, so he was very satisfied with this article.
"Fengxiao, the text has been prepared, just waiting to be sent, but will the princes respond to me?" Cao Cao took the model of the text and walked around the hall, unable to hide his anxiety. The heart said that if the princes did not respond, he would put on a big oolong and offend Qin Feng. If Qin Zijin and that kid in turn united the princes to crusade against him, it would be over.
Cao Cao was even more anxious because of this.
Guo Jia was full of confidence and said: "In today's world, it seems that in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, no prince can resist the "brutal" Qin army. Moreover, the riches of the north were coveted by the princes. ”
At this time, Cheng Yu said: "Qin Feng returned from the expedition, although he expanded his territory, it is also a fact that he cannot ignore the loss of troops and generals, Guo Jia seems that they will definitely not let go of this opportunity." ”
"Lord, we practice every day, and the soldiers use their lives, just waiting for the Lord to go into battle to kill the enemy!" Xiahoudun and other generals are full of fighting spirit.
Cao Cao was deeply gratified, he was not afraid of any other princes, but to be honest, he had a psychological barrier to Qin Feng. Therefore, he said worriedly: "The information presented by the secret agent, the north has incomparable war potential, and Qin Zijin may recover soon." ”
Guo Jia said with a smile: "No one can stop this, but the lord should know the difference between a hundred battle warriors and a recruit." ”
Cao Cao was a military strategist and had his own strategic sense, and said: "There are differences between the princes, and it is impossible to gather everyone together, so it is necessary to screen ......." ”
Guo Jia said: "Ma Teng, Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, Sun Jian. The rest are either long distances away or have no combat power. These five people can be invited. ”
Cao Cao also thinks so, and his heart is really worthy of filial piety, which has won my heart. He settled down, and after sitting down, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "What Feng Xiao said is very true, this is a rare opportunity, and the princes will not let it go." Immediately ordered someone to send this document to the princes of the Five Roads. ”
He stood up and said solemnly: "This time, it is a matter of great luck. You should unite as one and prepare for war! ”
"Whoa!" (To be continued......)
