[Daqian Dynasty's Protest against the Huns]

[The Huns have lived in the barren land of the Western Regions for generations, scavenging dung and eating mutton for a living. They are a very lowly people. Since the founding of the country by Taizu, they have always knelt and flattered everyone. They serve lambs and herd cattle every year to please the king. I am happy because my emperor is kind-hearted. I think that it is not easy for him to survive, so he can survive by helping him from time to time. For thousands of years, every generation has received the favor of the emperor, and the legacy of the celestial dynasty has gradually grown, so that he can live a human life]

[However, he has been arrogant and arrogant after being favored by God for so long. Since Emperor Jianming came to the throne, he has invaded our borders, harassed the people on our borders, plundered property, and even killed the people on our borders. It is pitiful that the people on our borders are suffering and have no livelihood. Enjoying the wealth and honor in the world, he was tortured to death by this thief. Emperor Jianming has always been angry since he learned about this. When the emperor who loves his people like his own son saw this situation, he was extremely angry. He immediately wanted to raise a large army to destroy his country and create a border for us. However, some ministers thought that the country was in a difficult situation after all, and they had surrendered to our country for a long time. They had been their son for many years, so how could they act with malicious intent? Every time they looted, it was the cold winter, and they thought that their country was full of barbarians. This kind of behavior may be due to the difficult times. Therefore, I advise Your Majesty to value peace and not to ruin the relationship between father and son that has existed for thousands of years.]

[My emperor thought that even if there is a conflict between father and son, Daqian is the father, and the Huns are his children and grandchildren. If children and grandchildren have their faults, no matter how angry they are, they should not be killed. After all, they are human beings. They were not livestock, so they listened to the advice of the ministers and sent people to warn the Xiongnu about strange things, and then helped their country to survive the difficulties of the winter.]

[However, savage people are not merciful. This is a great kindness from our emperor, but they are ignorant and do it again and again. My emperor thought about the words of the minister several times and tolerated them again and again. I want to express the kindness of father and son with human feelings and reason, and order If he repented, he would have lost this thousand-year friendship]

[However, such repeated indulgences actually made the uncivilized Huns become arrogant again, repeatedly violated the borders, and launched merciless sneak attacks in the wars between the countries, so that we lost several outstanding men who were just starting out and cherished the love of their fathers. He was on guard and was accidentally attacked by him during the battle and was defeated. This was an embarrassing thing. After this year, Li Yang, the top scholar in the Jinke Science and Technology Department, was born smart. Even though his father was loving and tolerant, he was still attacked by him. The international defeat of the small Xiongnu country made him resentful, and he actually sent spies to deceive Chief Li, but Chief Li angrily refused. With the sharpness of the swords of the people from the Western Regions, Li's swords were not bad, and his bold words made the spies' family known. However, the Xiongnu people were so narrow-minded and so bold that they actually assassinated Li Kuaishou in broad daylight and on the street in the capital. Fortunately, Li Kuaishou was very skilled in martial arts and was protected by the elders of his sect, so he was able to kill the assassin in anger on the street! 】

[A small country dared to go to the capital to assassinate the No. 1 scholar of Jinke and the noble Lord Wenquxing. It was really forbidden by nature. Emperor Jianming sent envoys to the Xiongnu to inquire in case it was private. However, he did not Think about it, the Hun royal court dared to kill our envoys in front of the court! 】

[Since the founding of the dynasty, I, Da Qian, have been powerful throughout the country, conquering the world with force, and are supreme and noble. This small country is actually a celestial dynasty. Today, the Emperor Jianming has studied hard in civil and military affairs, organized civil and military affairs, and accumulated money and food. He is a soldier in the army. The scribes in the Imperial Academy have been studying military affairs for a long time, and they have accumulated a mountain of military books! 】

[The sky collapsed and the earth was destroyed. The king was angry and his subjects died. This crime cannot be pardoned. The anger of the sky collapsed should be stained with blood. Therefore, he issued a proclamation and told the world that he will conquer the Xiongnu today. The heavenly army will rise from the sun to conquer the rebel country in anger. , Immortal and never return! 】

In the Eastern Kingdom of Blue Star, there is a tradition of two countries fighting each other without killing it. However, the tradition of Blue Star is slightly different from here. In Blue Star, the two countries fighting each other without killing it mainly inherit the ancient war culture. This Culture began to take shape from the Western Zhou Dynasty. Since the Western Zhou Dynasty, there has been very special emphasis on launching wars. The reason why King Wu of Zhou wanted to attack Emperor Xin was because King Wu of Zhou believed that Emperor Xin was "unjust." Because of the "immorality", we can confidently unite with the surrounding princes and tribes to jointly attack the Shang King as the highest slave owner.

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

Some people may not understand that war is inherently irrational, cruel, and anti-human. Why should we regulate war? In fact, to be precise, the so-called war at that time refers to the disputes between princes. After all, the princes are all one family, under the unified leadership of King Zhou, and are not life-or-death enemies. Therefore, using rules to handle disputes is actually the best way.

In addition to Zhou Lili's clear regulations on war, we can also see traces of such war rules in the documents left by the ancients. For example, in "The Debate on Cao GUI", several details are reflected. "The public takes advantage of it and fights with the long spoon." What we are talking about here is actually ancient battles, which require special selection of battle locations. For example, "Qi Ren Three Drums", Qi Ren beat the drum three times, but because the Lu Ren did not move, it was difficult for the Qi Ren to attack. Apparently, this is a rule. Including Cao GUI asking Duke Lu Zhuang what he relied on to fight the war, the reasons Lu Zhuang Gong gave were actually a kind of rule.

Also, when Song Xianggong was fighting against the Chu State, he must wait for the Chu State to cross the river and set up a formation before fighting them. Later generations did not understand and thought Song Xianggong was pedantic. In fact, Song Xianggong was just observing the war etiquette of that time.

This kind of war etiquette includes "when two countries are fighting, the envoys will not be killed."

Although during the Western Zhou Dynasty, a complete set of fighting etiquette was formed. But starting from the late Spring and Autumn Period, this kind of war etiquette was destroyed. The deceitful ways of war are prevalent, and they emphasize strategy and the direct goal of defeating the opponent, regardless of etiquette or reasons. Moreover, this method of warfare is talked about and admired by others. Those who fight in this way are called sage seekers, sage warriors, gods of war, warrior immortals, etc.

Originally, when this kind of etiquette was lost, "when two countries are at war, the envoys will not be killed" should also be lost. However, fighting in ancient times also emphasized spirit and heroic spirit. If you kill the envoy, you will show your cowardice. But on the battlefield, without bravery and fearlessness, the army will lose its soul and will no longer be able to fight.

Of course, the so-called "two countries are at war without killing each other" is not absolute. Sometimes, killing an envoy is not a sign of cowardice, but a sign of spirituality.

For example, when the Mongols attacked Diaoyu City in the Southern Song Dynasty, they sent envoys to Diaoyu City to deliver a message asking the Song army to surrender. However, the Song army beheaded the envoy and hung his head on the city wall to express his determination not to surrender.

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

So, this is not absolute at all.

In addition, the purpose of the envoy is to deliver messages. It is not aggressive per se and is not armed. Killing non-aggressive people is frowned upon. Like killing unarmed women and children on the battlefield.

Originally, the arrival of the envoy might spy on the military situation. But on the battlefield, what is often done is a battle of wits and courage. Wise people often follow the plan. It means deliberately releasing some information that is both true and false so that others can be deceived. In order to achieve the purpose of paralyzing the enemy. For example, "Jiang Qian stole books" in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a famous example of giving full play to the role of envoys.

That's why I won't kill anyone.

But in this world of cultivating immortals, it is considered a matter of dignity of both countries if the two countries go to war without stopping.

The envoys of every country symbolize the dignity of each country and are the untouchable bottom line of a country and even its nation. Killing the envoys is equivalent to completely humiliating the country's dignity and face from beginning to end. How can you endure this?

He raided the border, lost the battle, bribed and assassinated the top scholar of Jinke, and then killed the envoys of the Celestial Dynasty.

The people's anger was already extremely dissatisfied due to one heinous incident after another. First, Li Ming issued a personal statement to arouse their anger, and then Emperor Jianming issued a formal national statement in the name of the court. , in an instant, the people in the dynasty were all in compliance with the war, and regarded the crusade against the Xiongnu as a first-class event.

The people's hearts and minds are gathering, and wisps of strange energy seem to be gathering. There is a golden aura floating in the sky above the Daqian Dynasty from time to time.

On the day of the release of the [Message to Discuss the Huns], Daqian's army immediately went out, with their troops in uniform, and violently attacked like a torrent towards the territory of the Huns, which had already been explored.

At the same time, with the release of the memorandum, the Hun Royal Court was also furious.

"Daqian is the father and the Xiongnu is the son. I want to see who is the father and who is the son!"

"All the men mount their horses and kill all my troops for me!"

The Xiongnu royal court was so angry that it was called the son's kingdom in the official text. With a ferocious roar, it launched the Xiongnu cavalry and attacked the incoming Daqian army brazenly.

After several years of cultivation and strengthening of strength, the strength of the Xiongnu Dynasty has long been different from what it used to be. Coupled with several victories in the competition, the Xiongnu's confidence has greatly increased, and they do not feel that they are much weaker than Da Gan now. That's why he dared to provoke him so many times, and even attack brazenly when facing the front of the army.

Daqian has been accumulating power for a long time. Although the slogan sounds ugly, in fact, for these thousands of years, the Huns have been the sons of the Daqian dynasty...

Under the circumstances of Da Gan's martial arts, taking advantage of his current fatigue and seeing a chance, he immediately and decisively launched a test. If it succeeds, this is the only chance for the Huns to become kings!

Therefore, even though it is a bit false, if we do not seize this opportunity and launch an attack decisively, we will have to surrender to oppression for an unknown period of time in the future without any chance of rising. Naturally, the Xiongnu will not wait for death. Willing to give it a try!

After all, before Emperor Jianming came to power, they had no chance to plunder the Daqian border.

The benefits brought by plundering touched the greed of many Huns, and coupled with this illusory opportunity in front of them...

"Take me to see Ancestor Heixuan!"

A look of ferocity flashed across the face of the Hun King, and then he suppressed it severely. After announcing the attack on the Daqian Dynasty army, he immediately gave instructions in a low voice.

Hearing Ancestor Heixuan, a hint of fear and more fanaticism flashed in the eyes of the soldiers below, and they immediately turned around to open the way. The King of the Huns followed the soldiers quietly, all the way out of the palace, and came to a majestic palace in the center of the city of the King of the Huns. in the building.

"Hal asks to see the ancestor of Heixuan!"

Outside the gate of the building, facing the unguarded gate, the Hun King did not dare to make any mistake. Instead, he knelt on the ground and spoke respectfully to the gate.

"You want me to help you deal with the ancestor of Daqian Kaifang?"

The Hun King's voice fell, and before he could take a breath, a hoarse and joking voice sounded in his ears: "You want to use me?"

"I dare not do this. The Daqian dynasty has suppressed my clan for thousands of years. Emperor Jianming has long wanted to devour our clan. If we do not take this opportunity to deal with Daqian, our clan will be completely swallowed up by Daqian in the future. At that time, your hiding place will be But there is something missing again, the blood food that my clan donated to you is not something that other clans can afford!"

The Hun King knelt on the ground, his forehead touching the ground, and said in an unhurried voice: "This is the only chance for our clan to make a comeback. If you win, you will have control over the vast world, and no matter how many cultivation needs you have, you will be able to satisfy all your needs. The abundance is enough to support all your needs, otherwise, you are just a trapped beast in a cage, and sooner or later you will die."

"This time the envoy of Daqian dared to openly tease my princess in the royal court. No matter whether I kill her or not, he will definitely find an excuse to attack my clan. The result will be the same. This time Daqian's army has arrived. You If you are willing to take action, there is still a chance to fight, but if you are not willing to take action, the Xiongnu will be destroyed, and your place of blood supply will be gone!"

"The ancestor of Da Qian Kaifeng is invincible in the world, but that was already three thousand years ago. Up to now, he has not yet broken through to the golden elixir realm, and his lifespan will surely be exhausted. The only one who can stop him is you."

"Whether you want to take action or not is all up to you. I'm just here to tell you about this matter, whether to go or stay, so that you can make your choice early."

The Hun King spoke slowly, and after finishing speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, motionless.

There was silence in the majestic hall, and it seemed that after the Hun King finished speaking, there was only silence.

Until a long time later, a voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the Hun King.

"Boy, although I was seriously injured by the Zhengdao attack, it is the golden elixir after all, so don't show off your little tricks."

Accompanied by the sound, a black shadow suddenly appeared in front of the Hun King, with a glimmer of light on his wrinkled face: "The ancestor of Daqian Kaikai is invincible. He was in the realm of foundation building. No matter how strong he is when he encounters the golden elixir, Foundation building, so what?”

"It doesn't matter what you think, but if this happens."

Ancestor Heixuan looked down at the Hun King who was kneeling on the ground, showing his white teeth: "I want to eat human souls for three days!"

"Especially your royal bloodline!" (End of Chapter)
