Han Khan

Chapter 57, Conquering Illinois

Seeing such a miracle, the people around were a little panicked, but they did not panic.

The Nestorian monk standing beside Master Huineng had a solemn expression on his face. He made the sign of the cross on his chest and murmured in a low voice: "Holy Spirit! Is it you who have appeared?" After that, he clasped his hands together and knelt down devoutly.

Zhang Sheng was bathed in golden light, like a god descending from heaven.

He shouted loudly: "Anyone who believes in Haotian God will enter the blissful heaven where Haotian resides after death!"

Monk Huineng and Aaron looked at each other, both with shock in their eyes.

Huineng murmured in a low voice: "Could he really be the messenger chosen by God?"

But the fact is, because Zhang Sheng conquered Yizhou City and took control of it, his golden finger prompted "You already have feudal era buildings. Do you want to upgrade the Jinhan tribe to the feudal era?"

Before occupying Yizhou, the Jinhan tribe was in the Dark Ages. Zhang Sheng built the center of the Jinhan tribe—the Golden Tent, as well as numerous tents. Yes, many of the tribesmen’s tents were built by Zhang Sheng using 5 units of wood.

When Zhang Sheng silently said "promotion confirmed" in his heart, his big tent in the camp outside the city suddenly emitted a dazzling light in the eyes of the tribesmen, becoming more magnificent and splendid.

Then, the tribesmen beside the big tent surrounded Zhang Sheng's big tent, knelt down and kowtowed devoutly in the Tang language they had just learned, saying: "Your Majesty, God of Heaven, may your glorious name live forever in heaven!"

As the "era level" increases, Zhang Sheng's personal level also increases.

In this way, the captives and Jinhan soldiers in Yizhou City saw Zhang Sheng radiating golden light, which was a shocking scene. People who were close to Zhang Sheng even found that the scar on Zhang Sheng's face disappeared in the golden light.

The "Golden Finger" obtained through the time travel was of extraordinary significance to Zhang Sheng. Not only did it bring him the shock of appearing in front of two thousand Han people and others, it also provided him with unimaginable benefits, namely, the ability to enhance his fighting power!
Indeed, it was his strength. His original strength was 70, and in the "Dark Ages" it had an additional attribute of "+5", and in the "Feudal Age" it became "+10", and now it has a strength of 85.

If measured by the setting of Heroes of the Three Kingdoms, a force value of 85 can definitely be regarded as a first-class general. Although it cannot be compared with those super-class generals whose force values ​​are often over , it is definitely more than enough to deal with miscellaneous soldiers.

After traveling through time, Zhang Sheng always led the charge into battle. He thought that killing enemies could improve his character attributes, but this was not the case.

Of course, he did not charge alone before, but led hundreds of cavalrymen, taking advantage of the Uighurs' panic and immediately charging forward, giving people the impression that he was brave and fearless and not afraid of death.

Zhang Sheng looked at the people kneeling on the ground in front of him, no matter they were Uighurs or Sai people, no matter they were Jin Han people or prisoners, they all stared at Zhang Sheng in amazement after the golden light faded away.

Zhang Sheng looked at the people kneeling on the ground, his voice reverberating in the air in a steady and firm voice: "Are you willing to submit to Jin Han and devote yourself to the sacred teachings? Are you willing to believe in the only supreme Lord Haotian and forever spread His shining and everlasting glory and holy name?"

At this time, the Jinhan people who had long become believers of Haotian God were emotionally shaken by the reappearance of miracles, but they remained calm.

They knelt on the ground, clasped their hands together, faced the sky, and murmured devoutly: "The spirit of God hangs high in the sky, and His glory and good name should be praised forever!

Long live the supreme and one Haotian, long live the Son of Heaven!!!" These shouts seemed to tell the world their firm belief in Haotian.

Piety was written all over the face of every Jin Han person, and the same was true for those who had previously been incorporated into various hundred-households of Uighurs, Tibetans, and Sai people. Their eyes revealed awe for Zhang Sheng and the unknown gods.

They seemed to have forgotten everything and were completely immersed in their admiration for the God of Heaven.

This solemn scene made the captured Yizhou people feel awed, fully demonstrating the Jinhan people's persistence in the Holy Religion and the belief in the God of Heaven. All the captives and everyone in Yizhou City were now silent, not knowing how to respond.

At this time, several older and more affluent Sai and Uighur leaders stood up, looked at Zhang Sheng with firm eyes, and said, "Supreme Messenger of God, we Uighurs, Sai people, Turks and other people in Yizhou are willing to submit to Jin Han and convert to the sacred Haotian God.

But we do not understand the teachings of the Holy Religion, what kind of deity Haotian God is, and what kind of sacrifices He requires from us. "

Zhang Sheng saw someone asking, so he smiled and replied:
"Very good, if you are willing to submit to me, willing to submit to Jin Han, and accept my management, then you will not have to worry about your lives.

I will send a high priest appointed by me to teach you the teachings of the Holy Religion and let you understand the greatness of the God of Heaven.

As long as you always recite the name of God sincerely and worship Him in elegant language, you will be blessed by God. "

"Yes, messenger of the gods!" Many leaders of the Uighurs, Sai people, and Tang people knelt down and said. At this time, whether they were surrendering out of fear of the Jin Han people or in awe of Zhang Sheng's miracles, it didn't matter. In the days to come, they would become Zhang Sheng's loyal subjects, whether they were willing or not.

Zhang Sheng said to them: "But now you are my captives, you must obey my orders. If anyone dares to resist, I will definitely execute him in the name of the gods!"

"Yes, yes, we will absolutely obey your orders!" Everyone hurriedly kowtowed and knelt. Now they were lambs to be slaughtered by the Jin Han people. How dare they disobey?

At this time, Zhang Sheng looked at the four guard commanders Yin Shanxiong, Zhang Xibao, Koza and Boniek, as well as the four priests Zhang Zhongxian, Zhang Jinda, Zhang Anzuo and Wuzur standing on his left and right, and said in a deep voice: "Yizhou has been captured by us, and now what you have to do is:

First, the wounded were treated quickly, and then the dead soldiers were counted, registered, and their appearances were tidied up. The chief priest of Uzur presided over a holy religious ceremony to pray for the souls of the dead warriors.

Second, Zhang Xibao, you lead a guard regiment and five centurions, a total of one thousand soldiers, to protect Chief Priest Zhang Anzuo. Quickly lead all the surrendered people out of the city, organize them into units of ten or one hundred households, and take them to the camp outside the city for guarding. At the same time, count the number of prisoners and seized supplies.

Third, Koza, you lead a regiment of guards and ten centurions to escort Priest Zhang Jinda, and plunder all the usable items in Yizhou City, such as food, books, armor, livestock, etc., and move them to the camp outside the city!"

"Fourth, Yin Shanxiong, you lead the remaining guards and centurions and follow me back to the camp outside the city to guard us." Zhang Sheng issued orders in an orderly manner.

All the generals and the chief priest responded in unison: "We will follow your orders, Your Highness!" Then they each took the orders and left.

Then, a large number of captured Yizhou people were organized into groups of ten or one hundred households by the Jinhan people, and marched out of the city in long lines. Some people seemed to have realized that they would become slaves of the Jinhan people and become penniless, so they suddenly ran away or attacked and injured others.

However, all this was in vain. Their armor and weapons had long been confiscated. Who could they defeat with their bare hands?
Soon, they became victims of the swords of the guards and centurions. Seeing this, the others lowered their heads as if they had accepted their fate and walked among the crowd.

Zhang Sheng looked at the captives from Yizhou City, which numbered nearly 6,000 people from more than 1,000 households. He lowered his head and walked out of Yizhou. He shouted loudly, "Don't worry, I'm not going to drag you out of the city and kill you. I'm going to incorporate you into my tribe!"

At this moment, Zhang Sheng's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment as if he had completed a difficult journey. The supplies seized from the capture of Yizhou this time must be more than those of the Qilianshan Uighurs. He firmly believed that under his leadership, the Jinhan tribe would become increasingly powerful.

Zhang Sheng looked at the two monks, Huineng and Alonbon, and said in a deep voice:
"Come on, both of you. Follow me to the big tent outside the city. If you have anything you want to say or ask, you can tell it there without worry!"

The guard Yin Shanxiong and the cardinal Zhang Zhongxian beside him raised their hands to signal the two to follow. Then, under the protection of the remaining guards and centurions, they walked out of Yizhou City. They rode their horses seven days later and headed towards the place not far outside the city, where there were densely packed people kneeling!

The great Nestorian monk Alongben was still a little dazed at this time and walked unsteadily.

Although he couldn't speak Tang language, the scene just now shocked him. At this moment, he was eager to know what the mysterious Zhang Sheng said.

So, as he walked, he hurriedly asked Huineng in Uighur.

When he heard the monk Huineng beside him tell him in Uighur that the mysterious man in front of him was the human messenger of the God of Haotian, the first priest of the Holy Religion, also known as the Son of Heaven.

He received inspiration from the god Haotian and was ordered to establish Haotian's kingdom on earth and spread the name and will of Haotian God to the world.

After hearing this, he looked up in astonishment and looked at the young general riding a horse in front of him who was performing a miracle.

He murmured to himself, "My Lord Jesus Christ, this is too similar! Could it be that you have been resurrected in this Eastern land? Or are you the Saint Peter of the East?"

After a while, everyone arrived at the outskirts of the camp. At this time, the Jin Han camp was filled with densely packed Jin Han people because of the golden light of the big tent just now. They knelt around Zhang Sheng's big tent humbly and respectfully.

At this time, many Jinhan people saw Zhang Sheng and others coming, and they immediately made way for them while kneeling on the ground.

They looked at Zhang Sheng devoutly, and then all of them kowtowed and knelt together enthusiastically, shouting: "Honorable Son of Heaven, Haotian is with you!
May the Lord of Heaven support you, my Son of Heaven.

May God of Heaven bless us.

May the earth be full of vegetation
May God bring us milk
May the souls of our ancestors rest in peace.
May the road ahead be smooth
Good! Good!
