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

Chapter 663 Competing in the Central Plains (96)

Yan Guo 460 Three Years Summer (673 Years)

The envoys from the Kingdom of Yan crossed the vast sea, followed the holy river (Ganges) into the city of Qunv, and finally crossed the mountains and ridges to enter the city of Haojing on the snow-covered plateau.

In order to form an alliance with the Zhou State, the official scholars of the Yan State repeatedly collected and studied various materials of the Zhou State, and finally came to the conclusion: Yan Zhou has a family of [-]!
Yan Guo and Zhou Guo were one family hundreds of years ago!

The relationship between Yan and Zhou is like Qin and Zhao in the Warring States period. Although they were a family a long time ago, the time has passed too long, the blood relationship has long been weak, and the two parties have long been unfamiliar.

Zhou Guo has also been collecting information on the Central Plains and other places over the years, and he also understands that he and Yan Guo were a family hundreds of years ago.

But after all, it has been a matter of hundreds of years, so the alliance between Zhou Guo and Yan Guo is still based on interests. In the case of the same interests, they can call each other brothers and talk about the old days. But if the interests conflict with each other, it is Qin Zhao Changping The battle is over!
"Yan Zhou and the two kingdoms formed an alliance by marriage, kissing each other, and jointly defending the Tang captives!"

The envoy of the State of Yan knelt at the feet of Emperor Zhou respectfully. Although the envoy of the State of Yan was the blood of the ancestor Kang, and the emperor Zhou was also the blood of the ancestor Kang, but relatives are relatives, and interests are interests.

The sacrificial activities in Zhou State not only sacrificed to Ji Fa I (Wang Changyu), but also sacrificed to the ancestor Kang.

Yan State Shengjiao called the ancestor Kang the Holy God, while Zhou State [Confucianism-Brahmanism] called the ancestor Kang the God of Creation.

Not only that, the Republic also gave Zhou the technology. As long as Zhou is willing to marry and form an alliance, the Republic will send gunpowder technology for free, and is willing to sell various weapons and equipment to Zhou at a preferential price, as long as Zhou attacks the Central Plains.

The state of Zhou is now powerful, not only controlling the snow-covered plateau, but also the Western Regions south of the Tianshan Mountains, and the Tianzhu region north of the Holy River.

Population up to 800 million!There are as many as 15 troops!
"Zhou and Yan are both descendants of the ancestor Kang. I agree to marry and form an alliance, but I also hope that your country will not swim, and you can try to contain some Tang forces in the east."

Ji Fa VI is 57 years old, but he looks like a strong man in his 30s after hunting and exercising all the year round. Although there are a few strands of white hair on his head, it is harmless.

Not only that, Jifa VI also used the powerful deterrent power of Zhou State in Tianzhu to force many Tianzhu countries in the holy river basin to open their domestic markets to the Republic.

"At the most difficult time of the Republic, the brotherly country of the Republic extended a helping hand. This is the blessing of our ancestor Kang!"

The envoy of Yan State sighed, and once again deepened his belief in ancestor Kang.

"Ancestor Kang will bless you, friend from Yan State!" Zhou Tianzi smiled to the envoy of Yan State.

"Ancestor Kang will also bless you, Your Majesty!" The envoy of Yan Kingdom replied respectfully.

Later, King Jifa VI married his youngest daughter to Emperor Yu, and Emperor Yu also married one of his youngest daughters to King Jifa VI. The two became each other's father-in-law and son-in-law.

Moreover, the youngest daughter of Jifa VI was born to Princess Wencheng of the Tang Dynasty, and the youngest daughter of Emperor Yu was also born to Li Chengqian's daughter.

At the beginning, after Prince Li Chengqian's rebellion failed, his family fled to the country of Yan. Li Chengqian's daughter, Princess Leling of the Tang Dynasty, finally married Yan Yu/Di Yu, who was still King Fuyu at that time.

In terms of seniority, Princess Leling is also the niece of Princess Wencheng, so Emperor Yu is also the nephew of King Jifa VI.

And if the seniority is arranged from the ancestor Kang, Ji Fa VI is the No.40 descendant of the ancestor Kang, and Di Yu is the No.30 ninth descendant of the ancestor Kang, so Di Yu is also the uncle of Ji Fa VI.

And because the two countries of Yan and Zhou were brothers, Emperor Yu was also the elder brother and younger brother of King Jifa VI.

Di Yu is Jifa VI's father-in-law, son-in-law, nephew-in-law, uncle, elder brother, and younger brother.

In a broad sense, Yan State, Zhou State, and Tang State are all relatives to each other, and they belong to the civil war between relatives.

But in a narrow sense, everyone is for their own country and doesn't really care about relatives, what they do is relatives!
In the face of interests, the Qin and Zhao countries will not show mercy to each other because they have a common ancestor, they are all going to death!
The two countries, Zhou and Yan, married and formed an alliance, and signed the "Anti-Tang Alliance Agreement", but the Tang Alliance Agreement stipulates that when either of Zhou and Yan is invaded by the Tang Empire, the other party must immediately send troops to threaten the other front of the Tang Empire , so that the Tang Empire fought on two fronts and was exhausted, unable to concentrate on solving any one side.

In other words, when the Tang Dynasty attacked the State of Yan, the State of Zhou would immediately invade Hexi in the Tang Dynasty, and when the State of Tang attacked Zhou, the State of Yan would immediately invade Shandong in the Tang Dynasty.

The team of envoys from the Kingdom of Yan led the princess of the Kingdom of Zhou to the Qunv City all the way to Qunv City, and then entered the sea along the holy river, and returned to Chang'e City by boat.

Afterwards, the envoy of Yan State brought Princess Zhou back to Yan State, and then brought Princess Yan to Zhou State without stopping.

The envoys of the State of Zhou came to Chang'e City together on the ships of the Republic.

"We want to worship our ancestors!"

The envoy of Zhou State made a request.

"Of course." Yan Guo quickly agreed.

When the Republic and the Snowy Zhou Kingdom formed an alliance and cooperation.

Tang Empire

Changan
Crash——

The sound of gunpowder burning sounded.

boom!
A bamboo tube burst suddenly, and the bamboo tricks flew in all directions.

Since Tang Taizong Li Shimin, the Central Plains has been trying to find ways to pirate various technologies of the Yan State.

But after Li Zhi came to power, because the Tang Empire was too powerful, he no longer bothered to pirate the technology of the mere Yan State, so Sun Simiao's research funding was reduced, and more funds were used to expand the army and expand the territory.

Sun Simiao had to pay out of his own pocket, and finally made his own gunpowder and firecrackers for the Tang Empire.

The difficulty of making fireworks and flints is higher than that of firecrackers. Without the various laboratories that have been established in Yan State, it is still difficult to rely on one person to complete the entire process.

Sun Simiao came to the Tang Empire with the ideal of an enlightened autocratic monarchy. He studied gunpowder technology only to assist the Tang Empire to save the world, not for his own self-interest.

Even though the Tang Empire has greatly reduced its funding, Sun Simiao believes that these are only temporary, and there is nothing wrong with an enlightened autocratic monarchy. There must be treacherous officials who are deceiving the Holy One, and the Holy One will definitely pay attention to his gunpowder technology research again.

In addition to the research on gunpowder technology, the Tang Empire is still researching its own battleship, that is, installing the original cannon on the ship.

This technology is also very difficult, and it needs to unlock more advanced shipbuilding technology, otherwise it will be impossible to maintain the balance and flexibility of the ship in combat.

-

The eastern civilization has begun to accelerate development due to the existence of the empire on which the sun never sets, and the more intense competition has forced all countries in the east to work hard to develop.

When other civilizations were still riding horses and hacking and killing, the eastern countries had already begun to compete fiercely on guns, artillery, and sailing warships.

Proper warfare is the fuel for promoting the development of military science and technology. ——"General History of the World Song Dynasty Li Qingzhao"

……

Whether it is gunpowder technology or sailing warships, they were originally the original creation of the empire on which the sun never sets. It is the existence of the empire on which the sun never sets that brought civilization to the world and brought civilization to our Song Dynasty. Everyone in our Song Dynasty We should be grateful to the empire on which the sun never sets, we must know how to repay the favor, and be a gentleman who will repay the favor, instead of being an ungrateful villain! ——"General History of the World Song Qin Hui"
