Established a thousand-year family from the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 244 Great Confucian Wang Wei ([-])

"Report! Guishuang Kingdom-Zhou Guo coalition forces invaded our Western Regions Protectorate, and they are known as [-] troops!"

Just as Ban Chao was arranging for King Thanos and Ji Xingfo to go to the Central Plains, a scout came to the front for intelligence.

"Guishuang country and Zhou country?" Ban Chao was a little surprised. He was surprised that the Western Regions had known these two countries for so many years, but he didn't believe in the 10,000 troops. There are some scattered oases at the foot of the mountain, and the logistics pressure is very high. It is impossible to support the march of [-] troops. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty expedition to Dawan with [-] Qingqi, there were [-]+ people just transporting logistics materials.

"Don't worry, general, the alliance between the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Guishuang Kingdom is just a conspiracy. As long as you stick to the city, when they run out of logistics supplies, you can only withdraw your troops, and then the general will take the opportunity to fight back, and you will surely win a big victory! "Although Ji Xingfo came from the same family as the Great Zhou Empress, he obviously hated this Empress very much.

Her Majesty the Empress is even worse than the Qin Emperor and Han Wu in the Central Plains. She exhausted the people's power and national power to conquer the Quartet, just to expand the territory and show off her power. The hungry people are everywhere in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is already in jeopardy.

another month later

Guishuang Kingdom-Zhou Guo coalition forces really attacked it. Although they claimed to have an army of 7000, they actually only had [-] people.

Ban Chao led a 5000-strong Western Region Allied Forces to hold on to the city for more than a month, until the Allied Forces of the two countries had to withdraw after they had run out of food.

"Counterattack! Kill!"

Ban Chao took the lead and led more than 1000 cavalry from the Western Regions to charge towards the retreating coalition forces of the two countries.

The retreating coalition forces of the two countries were caught off guard. Some of them panicked and reorganized their defenses, but most of them collapsed.

"Bandu Huzhen is a god-man! The ancient You'an!"

Wang Wei, who was watching the battle on the city wall, admired Ban Chao so much that he couldn't help but think of the word "Ancient You'an".

However, he was also confused about Wang Youan's background.

When he was very young, he was sent to the Central Plains to study with great Confucianists. He only stayed in the family for a few years as a child. He vaguely remembered worshiping Wang Changzhi and Wang Changjiong at the family ancestral tomb when he was young.

Later, when he came to the Central Plains and made friends with those Central Plains scholars, when he first heard them talking about Wang Changzhi and Wang Changjiong, he was still very proud, thinking that they were celebrities in his family.

But the Langya Wang family and the Taiyuan Wang family said that they were their ancestors, which made Wang Wei at that time wonder whether they had the same name.

"When I get back to the family, I must ask the Patriarch to get the genealogy to see if it is the same name or the Central Plains scholars have misrepresented it. If it is the same name, it will be fine, but if it is a misrepresentation, I, Wang Wei, will definitely rectify the name of my ancestor. !" Wang Wei knew that the people in the family didn't care much about fame, and even if it was misrepresented, they wouldn't bother to fight back. Compared with fame, the people in the family cared more about real benefits.

But Wang Wei is different. He studied Confucian classics in the Central Plains since he was a child, so he is very concerned about things like [name]. But Wang Wei was extremely important in his heart.

"Ban Duhu, can you dispatch the Han army to conquer Da Zhou, eliminate the brutal Da Zhou, and save thousands of people in Da Zhou?" Although Ji Xingfo came from the royal family of Da Zhou, he obviously had no feelings for Da Zhou, only hatred. His mother was executed by Zhou Lingchi because she was a Buddhist.

"I'm afraid it can't be done." Ban Chao shook his head. The body poison is too far away from the big man. The [-] army marched to the body poison. The logistical pressure alone can consume the entire background of the big man. By then, the big man will have to be the same as the end of Emperor Wu. Public grievances are everywhere, which is not in line with the current national policy of the big man to recuperate.

The Western Regions are very unstable here. The Northern Huns always want to get their hands on the Western Regions. Guishuang has always wanted to annex the Western Regions. The distant Shendu Zhou also assisted Guishuang to invade the Western Regions. The Qiang people in Liangzhou have been rebelling, threatening the capital of the Western Regions at all times. Only Ban Chao can guard the Western Regions as the logistics channel for the garrison of the Han army in the Hufu. If it were replaced by other people, the Hufu of the Western Regions would have been lost long ago.

"Oh, God, save these lost lambs." King Thanos also stood on the city wall to watch the battle for a long time, watching the corpses strewn all over the field in the distance, he couldn't help closing his eyes and praying.

Jesus had thirteen saints, and one of the saints called "Judas" actually became a lackey of the Roman Empire and reported Jesus together with the Jews who hated Jesus, resulting in Jesus being executed by the Roman Empire. The two saints were scattered to various countries to continue to spread the faith.

King Thanos is the youngest of the thirteen saints. He was preached by Jesus when he was ten years old. Now he is 99 years old, but he still lives like a tiger.

More than 80 years ago, he watched the Son Jesus being tied to the cross and executed. 70 years ago, he followed other saints to the Roman Empire to preach secretly, but was arrested and imprisoned. 50 years ago, he was finally released from prison. Leaving Rome, went to Anxi to preach, but was expelled by King Anxi. 30 years ago, he went to Da Yueshi (now renamed Guishuang) to preach, but was expelled by Da Yueshi again. After that, he went to the grassland to preach, but was arrested by the Huns He got up and was imprisoned for decades. Later, the Huns were blasted by Ban Chao, so he took this opportunity to escape from the prison of the Huns and fled all the way south to the Western Regions. He has been preaching in the Western Regions for several years, and now he plans to go deep into the Central Plains to continue preach.

But he spoke Latin, so Wang Wei and Ban Chao couldn't understand him either.

another five months later

King Thanos and Ji Xingfo went to the Central Plains together, while Wang Yu stayed in the Western Regions to continue spreading the orthodoxy of the two saints of Confucius and Mencius.

"If the Western Regions don't turn into Confucianism, my king swears not to return home!"

Wang Wei made a great wish, which is bound to turn the Western Regions into a Confucian holy land, otherwise he will never return to the Central Plains.

One year later, Emperor Liu Da passed away. He was posthumously named Emperor Xiaozhang, also known as Emperor Hanzhang. Under his rule, the empire recuperated. The population of the Central Plains increased from 3000 million during the Ming Dynasty to 4000 million, and the thinking was reunified through the Baihuguan meeting.

The newly enthroned emperor was called Liu Zhao, but because Liu Zhao was only ten years old and could not rule in person, the actual power of the country was in the hands of Queen Dowager Dou, and Dou Xian, a relative of Queen Mother Dou, was able to ascend to heaven.

Not only the relative Dou Xian, but also the eunuch Cai Lun and the historian Ban Gu ascended to heaven.

When Empress Dowager Dou was still a queen, the eunuch Cai Lun helped Empress Dou frame the nobleman Song to death, and stabilized Empress Dou's position as empress.

Ban Gu was also promoted by Queen Dou by the way because he stood in line with Queen Dou in the death of Song Guiren.

After Dou Xianjiu ascended to heaven, he killed a visitor who had carried out an inventory of the population of the Dou family's fields in the original "Dutian Case Comparison" incident.

Decades ago, this guest was ordered by Emperor Guangwu to investigate the population of the fields of powerful gentry, and the area he was in charge of happened to be the territory of the Dou family.

Dou Xian's father was arrested and interrogated by the visitor, which made Dou Xian harbor a grudge, so now his relative, Dou Xian, who was finally powerful, directly killed the visitor without even bothering to make up a reason.

Another year later, Liu Chang, a family member of the Han family, was favored by the Queen Mother Dou. Dou Xian was worried that Liu Chang would lose his power, so he sent assassins to assassinate Liu Chang. , So Dou Xian advocated attacking the northern Xiongnu, so as to temporarily stay away from the Luoyang court, first avoid the anger of his sister, and return to Luoyang after his sister's anger subsides.

Another year later, Dou Xianbei attacked the Xiongnu, Ban Gu abandoned his pen and joined the army, and went out with the army. The southern Xiongnu army served as a servant army (puppet army) to assist the Han army to attack the northern Xiongnu.

Relying on being a great general with foreign relatives, Dou Xian became more reckless in court, excluded dissidents, and despised the imperial power. He had the power of Huo Guang, but he did not have the loyalty of Huo Guang.

However, only three years later, the eunuch Cai Lun, who originally belonged to Dou Xian's camp, rebelled, advised Emperor Liu Zhao, and summoned General Dou Xian into the palace.

Dou Xian believed that the imperial guards were all his people, so he was not afraid at all, and went directly into the palace swaggeringly.

As soon as Dou Xian entered the palace, he was killed by the emperor's cronies and a group of eunuchs who were placed in the imperial guards. It was a replay of the original Han Xuan Emperor's anti-killing of the Huo family.

Because the official historian Ban belonged to Dou Xian's party, he was gifted to death by Emperor Liu Zhao, and his "Han Shu" was continued by his sister Ban Zhao.

In just six years, the world has changed dramatically, but the one thing that remains unchanged is Wang Wei who is still preaching in the Western Regions.

In six years, Wang Wei erected dozens of stone tablets in Loulan Kingdom, and engraved the contents of "Book of Songs", "Shangshu", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes", and "Spring and Autumn" on the stone tablets. The full text is about 20 words.

And imitating the 72 sages of Confucius, he accepted 72 disciples in the Western Regions, taught these 72 Western Regions Confucian classics, and let these 72 disciples continue to spread the way of Confucius and Mencius in the Western Regions.

The turmoil in the court in the Central Plains could not affect Ban Chao who was devoted to guarding the Western Regions. Although Ban Chao was saddened for a long time by the death of his brother Ban Gu, the strong-hearted Ban Chao became more determined to guard the Western Regions after being sad.

Also unaffected was Wang Yan. He didn't care whoever was in power or who was the emperor. He just wanted to spread Confucianism in the Western Regions.

However, today...

"The Master said, learn and learn from time to time..."

Wang Wei is teaching the way of saints to a group of nobles from the Western Regions.

At this time, a soldier of the Han army came and said softly to Wang Wei, "Sir, your family members are here."

After a while, a young man from the Wang family came here and said to Wang Wei who was preaching, "Ruoshui, hurry home."

"What's wrong?" Wang Wei had an ominous premonition.

The Wang family boy leaned against Wang Wei, covered it with his palm, and whispered in Wang Hao's ear: "The Patriarch passed away, and his last words let you go back and inherit the family business."

Boom!

Wang Wei was shocked by this news. The closest person he has in this world is his grandmother Wang Yan, and he doesn't know the other Wang family children very well.
