Chapter 507: Commemorating the Heroic Spirits
However, these technologies can speed up research. As long as the technology is pointed out, it can be put in place quickly, and other supporting things are not a problem at all.
But things like crew members and soldiers really depend on experience and age, there's no way to learn them quickly.
"Oh, there are so many problems. Let's solve them slowly. Let's destroy the Northern Huns first!" Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said. Strictly speaking, there is really a lot of work to be done.
"Hehe, when the time comes, we will pacify the grassland first and eliminate these mixed Hu people and these Huns' minions. Then I want to see what other tricks the Northern Huns have." Guo Hao glanced at Chen Xi and said casually.
"Speaking of which, these mixed Hu people can be absorbed. It is indeed a way to quickly integrate the races. Nothing can eliminate internal prejudices better than the battlefield." Chen Xi nodded in agreement.
Fighting the Northern Huns was a huge project. There was no doubt whether they could win, but what they wanted was to completely sweep the Huns into historical ruins, and the workload was quite huge.
The issues to be considered at that time will be more diverse, and forces such as Goryeo and the mixed Hu will all be variables.
The best option is to eliminate the weakest and most annoying Zahu first.
"We might as well subdue these mixed Hu people first, then force them to fight against the Xiongnu, and finally select the best ones to settle down in various places, change their customs, and they will naturally integrate in a few generations." Chen Xi said with a twinkling eye.
"You mean, after the New Year, let Bingzhou move forward to build the city?" Guo Hao tilted his head and looked at Chen Xi.
Guo Hao had no interest in subduing the mixed Hu people. He started out by trading with the Hu people. It would be strange if he had any good intentions towards the Hu people.
In fact, this is a blessing for the Zahu people.
Being a lackey for the Huns is one thing, but being a lackey for the Han Dynasty is not another thing, right?
The main reason was that the general trend in the Han Dynasty was not to treat the Hu people as human beings. Even though there were educationalists like Liu Yu, there were also iron-blooded people like Gongsun Zan.
This caused the various Hu people in the surrounding areas to have complicated feelings towards the Han Dynasty. They wanted to join the Han Dynasty, but they had no way of telling whether they were facing the Iron-Blooded Faction or the Educational Faction.
"By the way, Marquis Wen said that he would go to Youzhou with the Xianzhen formation after the New Year. He said it was Wenhe's plan. Should Bingzhou send some more people there?" Chen Xi thought of the information that Guo Jia had shown him before, and asked Guo Hao.
"Isn't it necessary? This is a good opportunity for Zhang Liao to train. After all, he is a seed of the Temple of Martial Arts. He has been silent for too long under the halo of Marquis Wen. Besides, there is Chen Gongtai, so Bingzhou will be no problem." Guo Hao said confidently.
There are only a few people who enter the Temple of Martial Arts, and Zhang Liao is still completely trustworthy in fighting a group of miscellaneous Hu people.
"Yes, Zhang Wenyuan is indeed talented and should train more!"
Chen Xi nodded. If Lu Xun, Jiang Wei, Deng Ai, Zhong Hui and others were not in their complete forms, there would be no need to be so stingy in sending people.
"By the way, I'm planning to organize a sacrificial ceremony. Do you have anything on hand that can hold the event?" As Chen Xi was chatting, he suddenly took out a draft and handed it to Guo Hao.
"A sacrificial ceremony? A memorial to the heroic spirits? Aren't you too lacking in sense of ritual?" Guo Hao stretched out his hand and flipped through it twice, and found that the various welfare arrangements were in place, but the scene was a bit desolate.
"Didn't I just ask you what you have on hand?" Chen Xi gave Guo Hao a cold look.
What a joke! Of course, things like rituals must be kept and used to please the great scholar Cai Yong. When the time comes, ask Cai Yong to design it, and then let Nanhua be the main priest. The whole process will definitely ensure a full sense of ceremony.
As long as the news gets out, not to mention Cai Yong, all the great Confucian scholars who are still alive will have to find a way to get involved. However, judging from the time, it is estimated that only the great Confucian scholars near Luoyang will be able to make it in time.
If Confucianism doesn't even understand the meaning of etiquette, then it can directly start a wave of academic movement among various schools of thought, and Confucianism will definitely not be able to oppose it.
But this is impossible. Confucianism's "benevolence and propriety" are implemented throughout, and there is no problem at all in designing a set of ritualistic sacrificial activities.
For things like the academic movements of various schools of thought, we still have to wait for the pillars of each school to emerge.
"Um, how about the Xuanyuan Sword?"
Guo Hao took out the Xuanyuan Sword and demonstrated it in front of Chen Xi.
"Xuan-yuan Sword, Xuanyuan...Xuan-yuan Sword?" Chen Xi was absent-mindedly thinking about how to please his father-in-law Cai Yong, and didn't pay much attention to what Guo Hao said.
But suddenly he saw the Xuanyuan Sword in Guo Hao's hand and was immediately shocked.
"Hiss... Is this thing genuine?"
Just as he was about to reach out to touch it, Xuanyuan Sword originally wanted to teach Chen Xi a lesson, but considering that Chen Xi also shouldered the will of the country, Xuanyuan Sword flashed and did not take the next step.
“It’s genuine!”
Chen Xi was stunned. He originally thought that Guo Hao got this imitation from somewhere, but as soon as he touched it, he knew it was the real thing.
This thing can affect the destiny of a country and the will of the empire. It is absolutely authentic!
"Where did you get it from?" Chen Xi carefully let go of his hand. This thing could be said to be the best sword of all time, and its reputation alone was terrifying.
The additional significance is even more incomparable. This thing is more precious than the Heshi Jade. There are really only a handful of treasures in the whole of China that can compare with this thing in value.
" I exchanged it with Emperor Zhuanxu for the Tiger Soul Blade!" Guo Hao said casually.
"Hiss... It seems I need to have a good chat with you. What kind of rich experience have you gone through before?" Chen Xi looked as if he had seen a ghost.
"Emperor Zhuanxu, Xuanyuan Sword, Tiger Soul Blade, your experience is too legendary, maybe you can really become the emperor!" Chen Xi was shocked and carefully tested Guo Hao's thoughts.
Just kidding, Liu Bang killed the white snake and started the uprising, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang used foxes to communicate, these mysterious things themselves were a symbol of this era.
And what Guo Hao did was too hardcore. In this era, it could basically be said to be legitimate. Even monarchs like Cao Cao and Liu Bei would be frightened after hearing it.
Zhuanxu, one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Chiyou's legendary magic weapon, the Tiger Soul Sword, and the Emperor's sword, the Xuanyuan Sword, the element of being chosen by heaven is fully utilized.
What's even more terrifying is that the Xuanyuan Sword in Guo Hao's hand is the real thing, and Guo Hao is now fully capable of becoming emperor in a natural way.
Guo Hao didn't care about what Chen Xi said. He rolled his eyes and looked at Chen Xi speechlessly.
"Gui Zai wants to be the emperor, I don't want to work overtime every day! How about the Xuanyuan Sword? If not, I'll bring Tuanzi over. Tuanzi is also a divine beast, so there shouldn't be any problem with it being used as a good omen."
Guo Hao put away the Xuanyuan Sword and turned his attention to Tuanzi.
According to legend, Huangdi also rode an iron-eating beast, which was also known as Pixiu. It seems like a good idea to have it act as a symbol of good fortune.
"Just use the Xuanyuan Sword. If you're going to use one, use the best one!"
