Age of Empires: Beginning Reincarnation as Prince of Qin

Chapter 167 Fenglang Juxu.

With the completion of the seven hero temples, the ashes of these soldiers who died in battle were also sent to the hero temples.

From today onwards, the heroic souls of these soldiers from the Seven Kingdoms will live forever in Langjuxu Mountain, guarding the pastures of the people in the Central Plains for generations.

Outside the Temple of Heroes, there are seven towering meritorious monuments, each name is engraved from top to bottom on the meritorious monuments, and they will be admired forever.

Entering the Heroes' Shrine and remembering the monument of meritorious service is almost the dream of a soldier in this life.

On the day when the Heroes' Temple was completed, Fusu offered sacrifices to the Heaven and Earth in Langjuxu Mountain.

This is, sealing the wolf to live in Xu.

Zuo Zhuan, there is a saying in the book of Spring and Autumn, which is called the great affairs of the country, only sacrifices and Rong Ye!
This sentence means that for a country, the most important thing is sacrifice and war.

Everything has to be compromised for sacrifice and war.Compared with war, sacrifice is more important than war.

It can be said that the matter of offering sacrifices has a long history.

Since there are people, there is such a thing as sacrifice.

Not to mention the ignorant ancient times, even in the modern times where atheism was emphasized in the previous life, sacrifices have always been pure.

There are sacrifices to ancestors during the New Year and festivals, and sacrifices are also carried out when the building is started. It can be said that sacrifices are still popular in the era of atheism.

In modern times, it is better to believe what is there than to believe what is not, let alone in the ignorant ancient times.

In ancient times, there were not as many entertainment methods as modern times, so faith has become a good way of spiritual sustenance.

Building the Hero Temple, setting up a stele of meritorious deeds, offering sacrifices to the heaven and earth, and enclosing wolves and living in Xuxu, under Fusu's arrangement, the soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms are in full swing.

Sacrificing to heaven and earth is an extremely grand and grand event. Whether it is from the etiquette, the required offerings, or even the construction of the altar, there is great attention.

In the sacrificial ceremonies of the Seven Kingdoms of the Central Plains, the altar with the highest etiquette was ninety-nine feet high, with a total of nine layers of five-colored soil sealed altars.

The altar is made of five-color soil seals, which are medium yellow, east green, south red, west white, and north black.They respectively represent the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and also represent the five directions of east, west, north, and middle.

The green soil in the east represents the sea in the east.

The white soil in the west represents the desert in the west.

The red soil in the south represents the red soil in the south.

The black soil in the north represents the black soil in the north.

The loess in the middle represents the Loess Plateau.

In the central part of the highest level of the altar, there are seven square stone pillars, which represent the eternal existence of the seven kingdoms of the Central Plains.

Fusu ordered to build a hero shrine at the foot of Langjuxu Mountain and set up a stele of meritorious service. On the top of Langjuxu Mountain, an altar was built with five-color soil to seal Langjuxu.

From now on, the various ethnic groups in the grassland will never have the possibility of rising, and can only be inferior to the seven kingdoms of the Central Plains.Then, it was slowly assimilated by the seven countries of the Central Plains. Perhaps after a few generations, the Huns would no longer remember that they were Huns.

The ethnic groups in the grasslands don't do production, and they don't know how to store food. Every winter, if there is a heavy snowstorm, many cattle and sheep will freeze to death, and there will be a shortage of food and grass.

If there is no food, the only option is to rob, and whoever is robbed is naturally the countries in the Central Plains, and among them, Qin State and the grassland races have the deepest grievances.

The emperors of the Great Qin Dynasty all regarded the various ethnic groups in the grassland as thorns in their eyes and flesh, and wanted to kill all the ethnic groups in the grassland as soon as possible.

However, for hundreds of years, none of the successive monarchs of the Great Qin Dynasty was able to accomplish this, not even the majestic Emperor Shihuang.

But now, Fusu has become the first person in the past hundreds of years to hit Langjuxu Mountain and include the entire grassland in the mouths of the countries of the Central Plains.

Such a great achievement has never been achieved by anyone in the past dynasties, but now, Fusu has achieved it.

The Seven Kingdoms hunted, and now the grassland has become the most abundant prey in the Seven Kingdoms.The prey has been obtained, and now it is time for the seven countries of the Central Plains to divide and eat them.

The royal court of the Huns, the palace of the Khan.

"Your Majesty, the altar has been built, and all the sacrifices have been prepared!" The ceremony officer in charge of arranging the sacrifices reported to Fusu.

"Have you chosen the day for the sacrificial ceremony?" Fusu asked the ritual officer.

The ceremony official quickly replied: "Your Majesty, after three days, it will be a good day!"

Fusu nodded, and replied: "Okay, since it will be an auspicious day in three days, then the day for offering sacrifices will be set on this day."

The three days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was time to sacrifice to Huangtian Houtu.

This is a sacrifice to the emperor and the earth, and it is also an announcement to the heaven and the earth that this is the great feat of the seven kingdoms of the Central Plains.

"Boom, boom, boom."

"Boom, boom."

"Boom."

Three days later, a drum sounded from the foot of Langjuxu Mountain.

From the foot of the mountain, to the mountainside, to the altar on the top of the mountain, Fusu led the generals of the Seven Kingdoms slowly towards the altar.

The sound of the drum resounding through the heavens and the earth was very rhythmic, and the footsteps of Fusu and the others seemed to be on the beat of the drum with every step.

"Your Majesty, please come to the altar." The ceremony official sang loudly.

Following the chants of the ritual officer, Fusu slowly walked to the top floor of the Heaven Festival.The height of this altar is nine feet nine, that is, more than 30 meters high. Standing on the top of the mouth of the altar, Li Mu can have a panoramic view of the surrounding environment.

Immediately, Fusu actually had a feeling that he would be the top of the mountain and see all the small mountains at a glance.

"Bai Shuai, please come to the altar!" The ceremony official shouted at the next level.

The ritual official shouted loudly, and Bai Qi went to the second floor of offering sacrifices to heaven.

The altar is nine feet nine feet high, with a total of nine floors, and now Fusu is on the top floor, and Bai Qi's identity is second only to Li Mu, so he is naturally on the second floor.

After Bai Qi went up to the altar, the ceremonial officer continued to sing, and the chief generals of the Seven Kingdoms also went up to the third floor of the altar.Then, according to their status, the rest of the generals also went to the fourth to ninth floors of the altar.

In this sacrificial ceremony, those who can ascend the altar must be senior generals among the Seven Kingdoms.

As for the rest of the soldiers, the generals of the middle and lower ranks, because the number is too large, they can only spread from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain.

The sacrificial ceremony has begun, and the altars are filled with tributes, and the incense candles with green smoke are already burning.

The ceremonial officer took out some pre-prepared sacrificial texts from his sleeves, and began to read aloud, and the articles praising the Seven Kingdoms echoed in the valley.

"."

"."

"From now on, the south of Wolfju Xu Mountain is the land of our Central Plains. The people of the grasslands are all the slaves of our Central Plains."

"May the heroic souls who died in battle on the grasslands become immortal fighting spirits, and protect the territory of Wu Songs from generation to generation."

The voice of the ceremony officer reading the sacrificial oration kept ringing, making everyone who heard it feel sympathetic, their scalps were numb, and their blood was boiling.

Sealing the wolf to live in Xu, helping Su to complete such an eternal career!
