[Settlement is in progress, your descendants have ended an era, you have gained a lot of luck, and props are being drawn.]
[You get heaven-level props and everyone is united]
[United as One: Heaven-level props, after use, can forcefully trigger the effect of Unity, which can unite the entire country and increase national cohesion, centripetal force, and loyalty to 100% (people will not resist or flee). You can choose to increase the number of Planting a technology tree increases the research and development speed by 2 to 5 times, increases the project construction speed by 2 to 5 times, increases the combat effectiveness of the national army by 2 to 5 times, and increases the national grain output by 30%. The duration is 30 years. After the effect disappears, it will be based on There are varying degrees of backlash in the governance situation (the highest includes collapse of popular support and change of dynasty, the lowest is -20 popular support and -20 public security, please use with caution). Any gift from fate has already been marked with a secret price. Can you afford the price? 】
After seeing this prop, Zijue was also a little surprised. The power of this prop was so powerful that it could be said to be a life-changing thing.
Forcibly raising the loyalty of everyone in the country to 100, coupled with other effects, can quickly bring a country on the verge of destruction to its peak. But whether it will continue after its heyday or be short-lived depends on the actions of those in power.
In the face of a people who will not lower the people's support no matter how hard it is, no matter how oppressive, and everyone is loyal and willing to sacrifice everything for them. In this environment, how many people can hold on to their original aspirations after holding power for thirty years? The most corrosive thing is power, and this item gives you unparalleled power.
But at the same time, this is also a poison wrapped in honey. It is too difficult to stick to the original intention.
Huai State sent troops to destroy Zhou Dynasty.
Several other countries had little reaction to Bangzhou's demise. Perhaps it was only then that they suddenly remembered that there was another Emperor Zhou.
Wang Chong gave Ji Yun the posthumous title of Ai, which was somewhat pity. Ji Yun was not a tyrant, nor was he a ridiculous and foolish king. On the contrary, he was quite accomplished. If he had been born in other vassal states, he would have been a wise king. It's a pity that he was born at the wrong time, and he was born into the Zhou royal family with only one city.
The Huai State recruited more than 3,000 scholars to help compile books and materials, and at the same time sent the Zhou royal family's sacrificial vessels to the Huai State Ancestral Temple. These were given as trophies to show off one's exploits.
Almost all bronze vessels have inscriptions engraved on them, recording many important events. Wang Chong also ordered a craftsman to cast a bronze tripod to record the annexation of Zhou Dynasty by Huai State.
Bangzhou, which once destroyed the Yin and Shang Dynasties, was destroyed again by the descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties. This seems to be a cycle of reincarnation.
Although seriously speaking, annexing the Zhou Dynasty and destroying the Zhou Dynasty was not a great achievement, but it had a special significance for the Huai Kingdom. Wang Chong specially chose the bronze produced in Shangqiu to cast a large tripod, and completely recorded the event of the Huai Kingdom's destruction of the Zhou Dynasty on the large tripod. He then performed a sacrificial ceremony in Shangqiu, and then left the tripod. Shangqiu, buried under the altar.
As time went by, Wang Chong had no idea that this bronze tripod would eventually become the treasure of the Yin Xu Museum in later generations.
Just when the Huai State was building Dujiangyan, other countries were also developing, and the one that changed the most was the State of Zhao. Although the death of King Zhao Wuling caused the State of Zhao to fall into chaos for a time, the State of Zhao soon got out of the trough and began to develop rapidly again.
The most important thing is that the new generation of generals in the Zhao Kingdom has grown up. Lian Po and Zhao She, who fought against Bai Qi back then, have become the two pillars of the Zhao Kingdom. Zhao State's strength has expanded tremendously in recent years. To the north, Zhao conquered Loufan, recruited a large number of soldiers from Loufan, and pushed the border to the north of Hetao.
After defeating the invasion of Yan, Qi and Wei also made concessions to Zhao. It can be said that Zhao's national power reached its peak during this period. In recent years, the only country that can compete with Zhao State is Qin State besides Huai State.
Although Zhao State's reforms were interrupted due to the incident of King Zhao Wuling, the reform of the army, Hu Fu, Cavalry and Shooting, has been implemented, which has also kept Zhao State's military strength strong. Moreover, both Lian Po and Zhao She are talented generals.
Zhao also took this opportunity to expand outward. In the past, Wei and South Korea would refuse Zhao's intervention in the Central Plains, but after the two countries weakened, they were unable to oppose it. What's more, they also wanted to use Zhao's strength to alleviate the pressure from Huai. pressure. Weiguo, a small vassal state with only a hundred miles radius left in decline, was annexed by Zhao.
As the suzerain state of Wei State, Wei State did not even protest. In the end, the country with the surname Ji, which had been inherited for more than 500 years, completely disappeared, and its king was enfeoffed to a remote city.
After Zhao State entered the Central Plains, there was also friction with Qi State. Several wars broke out between the two sides. Under the command of Lian Po, Qi was no match for Zhao and lost a lot of land one after another. The King of Qi was forced to send Tian Dan out, thus blocking Zhao. attack.
But since then, Tian Dan's life in Qi has become even worse.
At that time, Tian Dan single-handedly led Qi's remnant army to push back, defeating Yan and escaping in embarrassment, and finally regained Qi's lost territory. His prestige is so high that he can establish himself as king. Just when everyone thought he would proclaim himself king, General Tian actually gave up and instead supported the current King of Qi to succeed to the throne.
At first, the King of Qi was naturally very grateful to him, but after he discovered that the person who threatened his throne the most was Tian Dan, the King of Qi immediately began to suppress Tian Dan from all aspects.
In the end, the King of Qi made him king, held him in high esteem, and then deprived him of most of his rights. But even so, King Qi was still worried about him. There is a saying that goes very well, a kindness can turn into an enemy.
When the Qi State was in danger, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had no choice but to force the King of Qi to invite Tian Dan out again. If Tian Dan failed like others this time, maybe his future life would be much easier, and King Qi would not target him again, but Tian Dan didn't think about this. Or maybe he understood this, but still did it.
So just when Qi was happy about defeating Zhao, Tian Dan's experience became even more difficult. King Qi felt that Tian Dan's victory made everyone think he was like a clown, and all his previous efforts now seemed like a joke.
Although the civil and military officials of the entire court were very respectful to him, in his opinion, everyone was just making fun of him. In the end, Tian Dan had to escape from Qi State in embarrassment and fled to Huai State.
Wang Chong welcomed Tian Dan's arrival, but Wang Chong did not let him hold an important position, but as his guest. After all, Tian Dan is not young anymore, so let him enjoy his old age in peace.
