Although the grasslands in the north had flourished for many races, such as the Canine Jong, the Hun, Wu Huan, Wu Tang, Yu Tang, Yu Long, Qiang Qiang, and so on, they were all only flourishing for a short period of time, almost at the same time as Wu Huan, Qi had already declined, and the decline of Qiang had become inevitable. As for Hun and Hun, they had already turned yellow yesterday.
Although they had experienced many setbacks and tribulations, the Han people were still like giants, standing tall and unyielding. Even if they were seriously injured, they could heal themselves and quickly regain their vitality, causing fear in all the tribes. The tribes that were enemies with the Han people were either exterminated or assimilated, and they quickly disappeared into the long river of history.
The current tribes were not truly of the same race. They did not have any sense of national identity. Their homeland was still far from being as persistent and resolute as the Han people. It could be said that the most important thing for King Fuyu Gao Jie now was to ensure that the throne was preserved and that he would be able to rule over the Empire of Yu.
If he could get rid of the fresh inferior as he wished instead of chasing it away, Gao Jie could be considered to have avenged himself. At the very least, he wouldn't be attacked by the fresh inferior for a long period of time. As for the military power, Gao Jie did not care too much, as long as he listened to Yang Lin's orders, he believed that he would not cripple him.
Just as he got on the horse, the State Advisor Li Lin beside him whispered: ”His Majesty the King, we are relying on the Chinese people, but you handed over the military authority so easily, how can we make the helper submit to us in the future?”
”Master State Advisor, can't you see? Even our guards are Chinese soldiers, even if we have military power, who can we move? Right now, I sincerely wish that Second Prince, Third Prince and the various powers of the sects will hand over their troops. This will prevent the Han army from attacking helper, and it will also prevent the helper from killing each other. ”
In front of the powerful Chinese Army, it was better to cooperate. As long as they didn't do anything to the helper, they could do whatever they wanted. Even if he was assimilated by the Chinese without them realizing it, becoming a Chinese was still a good choice. It was still better than being massacred or enslaved.
”His Majesty the King, the military power is in the hands of our helper, our helper will not kill each other, and perhaps our Chinese Army will not make a move against our helper either. But did you see that? Pan Feng ordered all the clans to gather men between the ages of sixteen and sixty, to go out to war.
Li Lin who had learned a few military strategies could naturally see through Pan Feng's intentions. With fresh inferior's fighting strength, if sshe wanted to fight face to face with Pan Feng, he would definitely suffer heavy losses. However, the helper only had a total population of six hundred thousand, and could not handle such consumption.
”Master State Advisor, how would I not know what you are saying! But they are trying to drive out the invaders for us helper, if we helper do not participate in the battle, would they fight actively? They can stay here and wait for the Gaoguellian and fresh inferior to destroy us. Therefore, we must fight. No matter how great the sacrifice, we must fight with all our might! Furthermore, I believe that no matter what methods they use, they will eradicate the fresh inferior, because the fresh inferior is their true enemy, and we are not. ”
King Gauge revealed a wry smile, and helplessly shook his head. Whether or not weak tribes like theirs could survive depended heavily on their own right decisions. If they took even a single wrong step, they would be beyond redemption.
The State Advisor Li Lin looked at the King Gauge, and could also sense Gao Jie's helplessness. Li Lin who was familiar with China knew very well that once he handed over the military power, the Han people would have no choice but to take root in Fu Yu. And the Chinese culture was too aggressive! It looked gentle and gentle, but its soundless and all-pervasive influence was the most frightening. It was more so than any form of conquest, making it impossible for anyone to resist. By then, the helper would really become a Han Chinese.
”His Majesty the King, since you have already chosen to give up, you might as well give up more thoroughly. In any case, the Fuyu Country was a vassal state of the Darky Court, it would be better for them to become a part of the Chinese people. The King could give an order for all the helper s to take their Han name, speak Han language, and recognize their Chinese characters. In that case, the helper would be the Han people, and there would be no reason for the Chinese Army s to make a move against the helper. Furthermore, whether it was to eliminate the fresh inferior s or to eliminate the Gaoguellian s, it would all become a matter for the Han army, so there was no need for them to scheme against the helper s. ”How about it?”
”State Advisor is right, since we have already invited them over, there is no need to divide the two of them. Rather than defending against each other, it would be better to just submit. I think that Lord General will not make a move against his own people. ”
In fact, the tribes surrounding the burly man had always spoken Chinese, understood Chinese characters, and took Chinese as the name of RongRong. From the bottom of their hearts, they also desired to become Chinese. Even the Huns and fresh inferior who had always been enemies with the burly man had been working hard to learn Chinese culture and technology. Thus, Ninth Prince Gao Jie did not feel that anything was wrong with State Advisor's suggestion.
Three days later, at noon, Pan Feng, Yu She, Kuai Liang, and Kuai Yue brought their own Han army and thirty thousand over Fuyu male s to head towards the Great Jing Dao. The reason he chose to set off at noon, was because he wanted to use half a day and a night's worth of travel to rush to Great Jing City at daybreak to attack the fresh inferior which did not have enough time to defend.
Of course, they did not forget to leave Lian Yue, Jiang Lin and the ten thousand riders to guard Ning He. In order to ensure the stability of the rear, Pan Feng not only brought along the King Gauge, but also brought Zhu Jiafuta and his son to battle.
Zhu Jiafuta had temporarily recruited a total of three ten thousand people s, all of which were self-made horses, bows and arrows and long knife s. Almost no one had any armor or leather armour, and no one had any battle experience, making them completely a motley crowd.
”Sigh …” This group of helper s were not even comparable to the xanthopanax, what kind of battle could they possibly fight? Fortunately, all of them have horses, so they will be able to escape much faster than xanthopanax. ” Yu She looked at the procession of the helper and could not help but reveal a bitter smile.
