: The loss of being uneducated after the extra episode

I heard Tian Chou say carefully to the illiterate powerful people in Wuhuan:

"It is recorded in "The Spring and Autumn Annals" and "Records of the Grand Historian" that Guan Zhong was the prime minister of Qi, Duke Huan of Qi, dominated the princes. In the 23rd year of Duke Huan (663 BC), at the request of the Yan State, a branch of the Zhou Dynasty, he attacked the "Shan Rong" located in the northeast of Yan State and invaded Yan's land, and helped the world.

The so-called "Shanrong" is a person living in the Yanshan Mountains in northeastern Ji County. After the war, in order to commemorate Guan Zhong, the Yan people named the important Lulong Valley road camp where the Qi army went out of Yanshan to attack Shanrong, and it was named Guanzicheng, which has been around for 800 years.

You don’t know these things, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t know them, but you have heard of the allusion of “Old Horse Knows the Road”? You are all well versed in the method of grazing, and this word is always familiar with it. That is, on the way back, when Lu Long blocked the road, Guan Zhong suggested letting the old horse lead the way, which was recorded in "Han Feizi. Shu Lin" and became an allusion."

Tian Chou originally invited everyone to drink and boost morale, but as he spoke, he actually started talking about scholars and set up the dragon gate formation, and many Wuhuan powerful men became impatient.

After all, they still accept the story. It is okay to say "Old Ma knows the way", but when they say "Han Feizi" and "Spring and Autumn Annals" are quoted from classics, they get angry.

Damn it, just tell the story! Can you please stop quoting the source? I don’t care about the source! Reading dogs are so terrible, they just like to show off!

The illiterate and powerful Wuhuan masters were temporarily holding back their anger because they were Shangguan, so they asked him to tell a long story:

"Mr. Ma, we know the way. Don't mention "Han Feizi". We are all rough people and can't listen to these things! It has nothing to do with the current situation! Let's talk about the most important thing!"

Tian Chou's face turned right and said, "Why is it okay? This is what Han Feizi said, there is a secret that has never been recorded in "Spring and Autumn" and "Records of the Grand Historian", but the Taifu studied profoundly and extensively, and he studied a big secret from it, involving the ancestors of all the Wuhuan people, whether it came from China or the Huns!

You actually don’t know? You Wuhuan people have been descendants of merchants since ancient times, and have not been barbarians since ancient times, so you cannot give up on yourself! Lou Ban’s scum is because they don’t know their ancestors. They treacherously betray their ancestors and will definitely not die well. They will have no face to see their fathers and ancestors underground after they die!"

After Tian Chou said this, the Wuhuan tyrants were immediately confused. After all, they also knew a little history. Although they were less literate and more illiterate, many people heard the word of their origins from their ancestors. They all said that they were the Xiongnus attached to the late Western Han Dynasty, at least one of the Xiongnus. After two or three hundred years, they gradually became more and more different from the Xiongnus, so they were called Wuhuan.

Is this old saying that is wrong? The late Grand Tutor Cai Yong does understand history, and no one questioned this, but Cai Yong can still turn this case?

These people listened to Tian Chou slowly finishing their speech with some patience.

Tian Chou then took out another original copy of "Han Feizi", pointed to the "Shuo Lin" chapter, combined with Cai Yong's "Records of the Grand Historian Suo Yin" and said vividly:

"In the allusion of "Old Horse Knows the Way" in "Han Feizi", the original text says "Guan Zhong and Xi Peng followed Duke Huan to attack the lonely bamboo, and returned to the spring and winter, and were confused and lost his way. Guan Zhong said: "The wisdom of the old horse is available." So he let the old horse go and followed it. He then gained the way' - I heard the difference between "Han Feizi" and "Spring and Autumn" and "Records of the Grand Historian"?

The key is in "Spring and Autumn Annals". "Records of the Grand Historian" says that Guan Zhong assisted Duke Huan to attack "Shanrong", and the war mentioned in "Han Feizi" talks about "falling the Guzhu". Therefore, there were many Shanrongs. At that time, the Rongdi in the entire Yanshan and Yinshan Mountains were called Shanrong, and most of the Shanrongs did later become the Huns.

But the Shanrong that had attacked with Yan State actually had another origin. They were called "Guzhu Kingdom". That was not a barbarian. It was a stigma of them as well as ordinary Shanrongs! Guan Zhong's attack on Guzhu occurred in Guanzi City in western Liaoning. It can be seen that the so-called "Rong Di" here is actually a descendant of Guzhu Kingdom.

The Wuhuan in your three counties were not the barbarians. They have been dressed in China since ancient times. They have lived in border areas for a long time, eating fishy smells, and drinking sausages with thirst. They gradually transformed into a barbarian state. Only then did they forget who their ancestors were and they didn’t know!

Now that the pastor of our palace guards the border areas, he has obtained the "Historical Records Suoyin" left by the Grand Tutor. He is gradually educated, so that you and others can know their true ancestors, like other great men, work together to defend their country!"

The Wuhuan powerful men were stunned when they heard this, but their minds had not turned around. They looked at their thoughts for a moment and found that Tian Chou only proved that "they were not the so-called descendants of Shanrong, but the descendants of the 'Guzhu Kingdom'."

But these barbarians still don’t understand what Guzhu Country is.

Someone continued to ask: "Dao, what is this ancient 'Guzhu Kingdom'? You just said that we were merchants. Is Guzhu Kingdom a business country in ancient times?"

Tian Chou was stunned instead. He obviously said that he "didn't expect that the illiterates were so illiterate" on this issue, so he mistakenly thought that the name "Guzhu Kingdom" was issued, and everyone understood it in seconds.

It seems that the explanation needs to be a little bit less.

"Oh, that's the famous Guzhu Kingdom. Although you haven't read the "Records of the Grand Historian" by Taishigong, you always know that "Records of the Grand Historian" has twelve dynasties and thirty-generational families, right? What is the first article of these 70 biographies in the beginning? Isn't it "The First Biography of Boyi and Shuqi", it is the first wise man in ancient and modern times.

Boyi Shuqi was the prince of Guzhu Kingdom during the rebellion of Shang and Zhou dynasties. Because they gave up the throne, they wanted to leave their homeland and join King Wen. However, when the Zhongdao heard that King Wen died, King Wu was established, and they formed an alliance to attack Zhou. Boyi Shuqi advised and blocked the emperor by his ministers. After the fall of Shang, they did not eat Zhou grain, picked wax and ate it, and starved to death on Shouyang Mountain. What kind of integrity is this?

But you don’t know that after Boyi and Shuqi’s death, the Guzhu Kingdom did not actually destroy the country. Instead, he kept the name of respecting the merchant room and stayed in western Liaoning. Like the "Jizi Korea" of Liaodong and the three Koreans, he insisted on worshiping the merchant as the truth.

All because Zhou was in the west and Shang was in the east, and in the remote northeast, the Zhou people were weak in power. After the Zhou people established the country for hundreds of years, they were still unable to exterminate the remnants of the Shang Dynasty in the northeast. The demise of Guzhu Kingdom was actually the 26th year of Duke Huan of Qi (660 BC), that is, three years after the Yan people asked Guan Zhong to attack the "Shanrong".

The so-called attack on Shanrong was actually to completely destroy the Guzhu Kingdom and to acquire western Liaoning into Zhou territory. The reason why the victory was called "a reunion of the world" by Duke Huan of Qi.

It was precisely because Duke Huan not only fought for the civil war between the princes, but expanded the entire Zhou Dynasty to the former territory of the Shang Dynasty, which was worthy of "Kuang Tianxia" rather than fighting in the nest.

I can't make up so many details and evidence. You should believe it. You are descendants of Guzhu Kingdom. Since ancient times, they have been merchants, so they are no longer barbarians.

The Xianbei and other branches of the Huns have much further blood than you are from the orthodox Chinese. You cannot be willing to degenerate and give up on yourself! You must cherish your identity as the people of China and do not defile the status of your ancestors!"

(Note: During the Spring and Autumn Period, the standard for "restoring the world" was to expand the scope of the entire "Zhou Emperor's Tribute System" outward, so that you can't divide the cake in your nest, and you have to make the whole cake bigger, which is what makes the conceptual scope of the "world" system bigger.

Therefore, in the era of Qi Huan, the Chu people who were still considered "Jingman", and the "Shanrong" in the northeast of Yan State were considered to be the world. These were not conferred by the Zhou emperor, but were foreign countries that had existed since the establishment of the Zhou Dynasty.)

Tian Chou spent some time to brainwash the Wuhuan people, making them realize that their ancestors had all admitted their mistakes. It turned out that they were not a humble existence since ancient times, and that was also the descendant of a gentleman!

Finally, Tian Chou quoted a sentence of Confucius just right, and explained the origin: "Mencius said: I heard that Xia changed the barbarians, but I have never heard of changing the barbarians. Therefore, based on Mencius, the Taifu commented in this article "Records of the Grand Historian Suoyin": If the barbarians enter China, then the barbarians will enter China. If China enters the barbarians, then the barbarians will be.

This does not mean that barbarians can change their ancestors by admiring the sinicization, but at least they can change their lifestyles and customs. As China joins the barbarians, they are talking about the principles, culture and teachings you have been away from their ancestors for hundreds of years, and they gradually forget the tragic people of their ancestors who were originally China! Fortunately, it is not too late to look back now!"

It must be clarified here: the words of Mencius quoted by Tian Chou were of course said by Mencius. As for the last half of the sentence, in history, after the Tang Dynasty compiled "Records of the Grand Historian Suoyin", Tang Dynasty scholars summed up the original meaning of Mencius. The direct source of this statement should be Han Yu of the Tang Dynasty.

However, it is obvious that because of today's time and space, Cai Yong first wrote "Records of the Grand Historian Suoyin" and solved the "problem of the national origin of the Five Barbarians". In this writing work, Li Su must have also discussed in detail, so Li Su added some useful quotations he knew about the Tang Dynasty people who wrote "Records of the Grand Historian Suoyin", which naturally also included Han Yu.

However, Han Yu's words were further expanded and abused in later generations, because after the rise of the Mongol Yuan and the Qing Dynasty, they needed to find more evidence of expansion, which also led to Han Yu's words being used even more indecently by future generations.

Of course, Li Su would not use the over-expanding and distorted parts indiscriminately, and there was no need for this. Therefore, the books by Li Su and Cai Yong will definitely not become the argument for barbarians to take over the orthodox Chinese, and will only become the weapon for the Han people to devour barbarians.

Li Su and Cai Yong are both masters who have been dealing with orthodox theory all their lives. The orthodox textbooks they have produced will definitely not have low-level mistakes.

Tian Chou is also a post-post official who is more capable of "understanding the spirit of the document". In history, he has done things to appease and recruit the Hu people. Now he has updated his equipment and is more at ease.

Of course, the big problem of people's support and national identity cannot be solved by drinking a big wine and pursuing several stories with heart-to-heart analysis.

But tonight's moves have temporarily calmed the people in Guanzi City. Tian Chou has been doing such a job before, but the promotion intensity and speed are not enough.

After all, most barbarians are illiterate and do not have a good opportunity to enter, and the publicity work is not so easy to promote. Moreover, Cai Yong's "Records of the Grand Historian" has become popular. To be honest, it has only been a few years since local officials with poor cultural level. They may not have finished reading it himself.

In any case, this matter has now been a big step forward, and we will gradually redeem our troops and subtly unify national identity.

...

Under Tianchou's armed approach to the ideological weapon of national identity, Liaoxi County's persistence has finally become more and more smooth. Even if the degree is limited, at least the situation is developing in a good direction.

As for the same sentence, Liu Bei's army is making a "big thunderstorm plan" in advance. There is no shortage of front-line military supplies and military rations. The only thing that is short of is the manpower to defend the city.

If the personnel shortcomings are filled, you can be confident and bold and use the internal Hu people to fight bloody battles. Tuoba Liwei and Lou Ban will definitely not be able to conquer those important cities that hoard military supplies.

After five or six days of bloody battle in the siege, the barbarian kings finally realized something was wrong.

The reason why they fought for several military-captains was not because they obtained information to capture a large number of supplies by breaking through these cities. Now they have become meat grinders, which make them give up but reluctant to leave. They have suffered huge casualties every day, and they have piled up the lives of the grassland warriors under the solid city walls, and lined up with crossbows and divine arm crossbows to bleed.

The plot is wrong!

Several times, the barbarian kings had to personally approach three hundred steps away from the city wall under the protection of the tight shield wall, watching the battle situation at the city wall.

The Hu people often grazed and hunted, and had good eyesight. After watching for a long time, and listening to reports from some of the surviving soldiers who had retreated, they finally found that many of the defenders on the front of the city were Wuhuan people working for the Han people, guarding the city walls and slaughtering the Wuhuan Xianbei rebels.

"What's going on? You are not going to insist on attacking the heart and clamoring, and promoting that the Wuhuan people do not kill the Wuhuan people, and the Xianbei people do not kill the Xianbei people. Why are there so many traitors? He clearly saw that the Shanyu/Khan came, but he helped the Han people kill their compatriots?

If so many Wuhuan militia warriors helped the Tian family defend the city, these places would have been broken! You waste! Tell me, did you ask you to use the banner of "Wuhuan people will not steal the Wuhuan people" before, you did not restrain your subordinates, burn, kill, loot, and lose your people's hearts!"

In the end, the barbarian kings tried to vent their anger on the officers under their subordinates who were responsible for plundering military supplies, thinking that they were too cruel to kill and plunder.

The officers also complained and explained repeatedly: "Khan/Shanyu, we are strictly enforcing military orders. I don't know what Tian Choo used to make the other Wuhuan people confused by him and willing to work hard for him.

When we attacked the city, we also killed some soldiers guarding the city. They fell down in a melee and dragged them back by us. The army also questioned them. Those people actually said that Shanyu, you betrayed your ancestors and you have no shame to see them even if you die. Tian Chou's bewitching is too great."

Of course, Lou Ban was furious when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do.

After discussing, the head of the coalition forces felt that the time was not enough, so he gave up these important towns that had hoarded a large number of military supplies, completely cut off his thoughts, and robbed the plains between the countryside of Bohai County and left.
