Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 281 Qin and Zhao (Part )
After Ying Qin and his party left Wusun, they encountered a little trouble——

They encountered a tribe of Yuzhi people.

It was summer and autumn.
The Yuzhi people drove cattle and sheep to migrate across the fertile pastures in the river, chasing the still green grass and looking for a place to spend the winter.

Before we met,
Ying Pijiang was still riding his horse, looking at the endless grassland.

He suddenly said to his uncle, "I have thought before whether it is possible to turn Hezhong into arable land for Daqin and relocate people to settle here."

"But now it seems that this place is not suitable for farming, only grazing."

The thoughts of children,

It always changes three times a day.

When Ying Pijiang met the envoys of Xinxia in Luoyi, he expressed his idea of "using Hezhong to raise horses for Daqin".

But then he thought:
There are plains and rivers.
It's a pity to just use it for grazing.

then,

When the First Emperor fell ill and Ying Pijiang was by his side, in order to make his grandfather happy and get better quickly, he told him about his plans for the future.

The First Emperor at that time did laugh, praised him as a child with ideas, and encouraged him to implement this grand plan of educating the barbarians in the future.

right now,

Ying Pijiang stepped firmly on the land in the river and realized that the rain here was not sufficient. After the river water flowed into a huge lake that could be called an ocean, it could no longer flow into other places.

Like the salt marshes they passed by,
The lake water is salty.
The river is not flowing fast enough,
There weren't even any trees around, not enough for people to cut down and build.

After seeing the mighty Yellow River and the lush greenery of the Qinling Mountains, Ying Pijiang naturally felt that there were still many shortcomings in the river.

Hei Yi laughed and said, "If the river was fertile enough, Xinxia would have occupied this place long ago, and there would be no way to leave it to Yuzhiren!"

The gentlemen of the various states never conceal their desire for land!
Their ancestors came from small tribes on both sides of the Yellow River and multiplied to the area from the Great Wall to the south of the Baiyue Lingnan. Both the north and the south are filled with the descendants of Yan and Huang.

Is it possible that such a vast land,
Did Zhu Xia get it by crying?

It is obvious that they were educated with benevolence and righteousness!
Xinxia is a branch of Zhuxia.

What the Xia should have,
They are not lacking either.

How could they give up expansion and feel satisfied after taking over the Sindhu River and the Ganges River?
If the Chinese gentlemen who love farming have not reached out to develop the land here,
That only means,
The land here does not have much temptation for gentlemen.

Ying Pijiang was disappointed and said, "It seems that we cannot live and reproduce in the river."

After leaving the Western Regions,
Ying Pijiang was already sixteen years old.

So with everyone's support,
He was crowned ahead of schedule and became a wandering King of Qin who had no land, did not live in a palace, and had only a thousand men under his command.

His next mission,
It is to lead their people to find new land so that their culture and bloodline can be passed on.

After becoming the King of Qin,

Ying Pijiang's pursuit changed again.
His goals for the future have become more ambitious.

Not only did they live with Xinxia and continue the ancestral temple sacrifices of Yingqin,

Ying Pijiang even wanted to establish a new "Qin State"!
But the land in the river could not satisfy his desire.
Ying Qin could only continue his pursuit.

Just as they finished their rest and were about to continue their journey, the strange Yuzhi tribe appeared.

They had an inexplicable love and respect for "Qin". When they heard that Ying Pijiang was the King of Qin, they worshipped him even more.

According to him,

They are the descendants of those who witnessed Zhang Yi's mission to the Western Regions, and have always regarded the Qin people as agents of the gods.

It has been passed down from generation to generation for a hundred years.

Now seeing the Qin people again, I feel very happy.

“…I think they should do it for more than just this reason.”

Sha remembered the leader of this tribe,

She was a young and capable woman.

Thirty years old,
My husband died of illness very early.

Then, using some unknown means, he took control of this tribe of hundreds of people.

When this person came out,

He just stared at Hei Yi and was reluctant to take his eyes away.

When this tribe was negotiating relations with Ying Qin, the other party not only praised the Qin people and ghosts and gods, but also praised Hei Yi's "beauty".

"How could such a handsome person be born on the grassland?"

"It turns out that the soil and water of Zhuxia are what nourish people!"

She sighed with emotion, almost uttering three sighs in one verse.

So Heisha said to her brother, "Why don't you sacrifice yourself?"

"It just so happens that you have never been married, and that woman is not ugly."

Hei Yi didn't want to discuss marriage too early, so he delayed it for a few years.

After the death of the First Emperor, Hei Zhuang thought that a large-scale celebration was not appropriate during a national mourning period, so he delayed the celebration again.

And wait until later,

Needless to say, of course.

Hearing what his sister said, Hei Yi felt a little embarrassed and annoyed.

He said, "How could I possibly sell out my male beauty!"

"That barbarian woman is extremely rude. How can she be the mistress of the Hei family?"

He walked away in a huff.

He bumped into Ying Pijiang who was eavesdropping outside.

The eldest nephew looked at his uncle eagerly, "Is it really not possible?"

"Their tribe is close to Qin Ying. Their numbers are not as large as ours, but they have a lot of cattle, sheep and horses." What a generous dowry!
Hei Yi was so angry that he jumped up and down, "I will never give in."

After a few days,
That tribe once again interacted with the Qin Dynasty.
The female leader personally drove the cattle and sheep over and invited Hei Yi to dance with her.

Hei Yi agreed reluctantly.
After all, Ying Qin is still wandering,

In such a situation, you should not easily make enemies with others.

just,

When Hei Yi stepped out of the safe area,

The female leader suddenly waved to her subordinates, and several strong men came over with laughter, hugged the struggling Hei Yi and the leader and left.

"is this okay?"

Ying Pijiang witnessed this scene with his own eyes, and could still hear his uncle's voice asking for help, so he couldn't help but ask his mother.

"She gave us dozens of good horses." Heisha said lightly.

So Ying Pijiang immediately hardened his heart and stopped looking at Hei Yi's back.

Three days later,
Hei Yi was sent back. He looked thin and his steps were unsteady.

He said, "...I am willing to marry Yunniang."

"She will come with us when we migrate later."

Ying Pijiang happily calculated the accounts, "In this case, our manpower will be almost 2,000, and the number of cattle, sheep and horses will double!"

Hei Yi glared angrily, "I sold my body for this!"

After all,

He raised his hands and began to lament his lost virginity.

But the men of the Black clan,

Never act like a shy daughter,
After accepting the courtship of the female leader Yunniang,

Hei Yi was indeed concerned about this and tried to find a way to ease the conflict between Yu Zhi and Ying Qin so that the two sides could merge smoothly.

after that,

The team marched towards the south again in a mighty manner.

The messenger of Xinxia therefore met them.

And the other party was the one who had visited the Qin Dynasty and was received by the First Emperor in Luoyi.

He's still energetic.

So he was reappointed by the monarch.

"Such unrest actually happened in the Central Plains?"

After hearing about what happened to Ying Qin, the envoy was very sad.

then,

He decided to return with his men and report the matter to the king.

The messenger said, "Since there is a war, it is better not to get involved before the outcome is determined."

Isn’t the life of the messenger a life?
It has only been twenty years since Xinxia emerged from the chaos of war. The envoy knows the power of the chaos among the Xia people.

What is the internal strife among the barbarians?
The gentlemen of all China drew their swords and were determined to kill so many people that the population would be halved and blood would flow like a river!

When King Xia heard about this, he did not blame the envoy for acting on his own initiative.

He was also surprised by the ever-changing situation in the world.

The founder of the new dynasty, who won the support of the people by suppressing the rebellion, sat on the throne and said to the distinguished guests from afar with emotion, "What a surprise!"

After he restored peace and stability to the New Xia, he sent people to various Xia states to visit the First Emperor who swept across the world.

that time,
The new summer is great,

The Qin Dynasty was also very good.

Everywhere seems full of vitality.

But in less than ten years,
He still had the energy to govern the country, but the First Emperor had already passed away, and the unified Qin Dynasty that shocked Xinxia also quickly came to an end.

Even their monarch wandered over to their side and became a guest of Xinxia.

"So, history always likes to play jokes on people!"

The Qin Dynasty emerged so enthusiastically and fell so enthusiastically, it was like a dream.

Zhao took in Qin.
Isn't this a repetition of history?
When King Xia thought of the deeds of his ancestors, he could not help stroking his beard and smiling with emotion.

Qin and Zhao both have the surname Ying, but their rise and fall were at different times.

Zhao's ancestor Zaofu was the first to be granted a fiefdom and had "Zhaocheng" as his fiefdom, which attracted many people with the surname Ying to come and join him.

The Qin people, who were still working as horse-raising slaves for the Zhou emperor at the time, were one of them.

After Qin Fuzi was granted a title and received the grace of the emperor, and as the main descendant of the Ying clan, he obtained the right to worship the ancestor of the Ying clan. Only then did the two separate and formally divide their families.

This happened seven hundred years ago.

And at this moment,
Just like that moment!

"Drink!"

"Let us temporarily forget the pain and worries, appreciate the blessings of our ancestors, and celebrate the reunion of the descendants of the Ying family today!"

King Xia raised the wine glass in his hand and made a passionate call to Ying Qin that came from their blood and common ancestor.

Ying Pijiang was the King of Qin.
They also raised their glasses and responded with the same enthusiasm.

In the summer,
A deep hatred developed between Qin and Zhao.

But in the new summer,
Qin and Zhao were able to unite and jointly create the prosperity of this country.

After all, among the people of Xinxia, there are so many people whose ancestral home is Qin and Zhao, thanks to the exile law formulated by Shang Yang and the "talent export" of Wu'an Jun Bai Qi!
