Chapter 19 New Pattern
In a blink of an eye, another half a year hastily passed.
Since the war of the Ke tribe, Gu Xinghe has never participated in any Mu tribe's war. In this half a year, he only did one thing, which is to lead his slaves to move the green vine in the original cottage of the Mu tribe, and then expand it again. In Mu's tribal camp, he and Yunyan continue to build a small nest that he and Yunyan will use to get married.
As early as half a year ago, when Gu Xinghe gave Mu Jin seven suggestions, Mu immediately pardoned him for fighting at night without authorization, and then announced at the clan meeting that he would marry his youngest daughter to him. Since then, he has never participated in the affairs of Mu's tribe again, but has focused on camping with Yunyan. Build your own house.
After the migration, Mu, according to the seven suggestions given by the ancient Xinghe, practiced morality and politics, conquered the four foreigners, and gradually took care of Mu's tribe as the first tribe within hundreds of miles, and already had the strength to win the prince.
Half a year ago, after the migration of the Mu tribe, the seven suggestions made by the ancient Xinghe were:
The first article is to cultivate moral politics, so that a large number of slaves can have freedom, and then assimilate them to automatically become members of the tribe. At the beginning, this article was opposed by countless ethnic groups, but Mu ruled out public criticism and even ignored the opposition of the elders and forcibly implemented this measure. Although it had led to a significant weakening of the tribe's strength for a certain period of time, the final fact proved that Gu Xinghe's suggestion was undoubtedly the most correct, because This article not only greatly enhances the strength of the tribe, but also greatly reduces the probability of prisoners resisting and fleeing after each war. Because the security of the Mu tribe is often several times better than their previous tribes, and they do not have to be slaves. They completely become equal members of the Mu tribe and enjoy the same treatment and power.
On the contrary, if the prisoners escape and resist without permission, the only thing waiting for them is death and killing. In contrast, the prisoners are more inclined to join the Mu tribe.
The second article is to attract foreign aid. In the name of "offering the gods", Mu formed an alliance with other more powerful tribes around him, while forcibly bullying other small tribes by force. At the same time, he used various methods to alienate the relationship between the tribes within the alliance, which eventually led to this tribe. There were successive battles, and the Mu tribe undoubtedly became the biggest winner. A few days ago, Mu also led 50,000 troops to attack a more powerful tribe and try to annex it.
Third, to develop agriculture and animal husbandry, under the suggestion of the ancient Xinghe River, Mu once led the people to trap the new camp with a tall fence within a hundred miles, and then sent warriors to patrol and guard the outside. Within the fence, he began to grow grain and store livestock. Anyway, the population of Mu's tribe is It is growing crazily, but there is no need to worry about the lack of labor.
Article 4, establish an army and establish a national mechanism. After the strong persuasion of the ancient Xinghe, Mu finally decided to privately change the Mu tribe to the "Great Mu Kingdom", calling himself King Mu, and establish a hundred officials system and rebuild the army. After nearly half a year of development, there have been hundreds of thousands of people in the Great Mu Kingdom, including nearly 70,000 troops, and the rest are old and weak women and children engaged in agriculture. The former elders and warriors with outstanding achievements have been promoted to one of the 100 officials. After the establishment of the new army, the rigorous military system and iron-blooded training method made the spear of the Great Mu Kingdom invincible.
Article 5, making new weapons and agricultural tools. With the help of Gu Xinghe, King Mu gathered more than 1,000 craftsmen for the dispatch of Gu Xinghe. Therefore, it has become the responsibility of Gu Xinghe to supervise the craftsmen to make new weapons and new agricultural tools. In this case, countless new weapons and agricultural tools have been produced in large quantities. For a while, the agriculture of the Great Mu Kingdom has been vigorously developed, and the army has also become the most feared existence of large and small tribes nearby since the application of new weapons.
Article 6 is to teach words. Since then, the existence of words has appeared for the first time in the tribal plain. Although it is extremely simple, over time, the era of civilization in the Great Plains began with the Kingdom of Mu. Because the war is extremely busy, the burden of learning and making words can only be handed over to King Mu and the nephews of his subordinate officials, and the only teacher is naturally Gu Xinghe. The emergence of words is more cohesive in the Great Mu Kingdom, and also deepens the faith of the tribe.
Article 7, establish a perfect hierarchy and constrain the benign development of the national mechanism through a rigorously formulated hierarchy, which can greatly reduce barbaric factors in the Kingdom of Damu, and civilization and institutions will eventually plant firm seeds in people's hearts over time.
For Gu Xinghe's seven suggestions, except for a few confusion in Article 7, Mu felt that there was a strange talk, so he immediately chose an auspicious day and announced that Gu Xinghe would be regarded as the guest of the Mu tribe. At the same time, he announced that Mu's tribe was renamed the "Kingdom of Mu" and his favorite little daughter Yunyan. Marry the ancient Xinghe and achieve a happy marriage.
Since achieving its goal, the ancient Xinghe has rarely asked about the state affairs of the State of Mu, but focused on building a new house, or accompanied by clouds and smoke, galloping through the territory of the Kingdom of Damu, watching the sunrise and sunset, and the mountains and rivers.
Although the Great Mu Kingdom is not as large as a tenth of a state in the Zhongzhou Empire, and even the area of the Xiyan Kingdom is slightly worse, the Ancient Star River has been immersed in this new kingdom. Even now, he has not been able to regard himself as a member of the Great Mu Kingdom, but it does not prevent him from gradually falling in love with this place.
A year after Gu Xinghe came to this world that did not belong to him, somewhere in the great plain of the tribe had slowly begun to undergo unexpected changes. The wind and clouds surged and changed rapidly. Mu's strength became stronger and stronger, and it had completely annexed the territory of 600 miles, while other surrounding tribes, Either he has been defeated, or has migrated away, or simply surrendered to the State of Mu.
After all, Gu Xinghe can't be indifferent to all this, because these changes are always inextricably related to him. No one knows whether this is good or bad, but Gu Xinghe thought about another thing and automatically forgot it!
This other thing is the upcoming wedding of him and Yunyan!
At the beginning, Mu intended to hold a wedding for him and Yunyan immediately, but he refused on the grounds that Yunyan was still young! Later, it was agreed that the wedding would be held on Yunyan's eighteenth birthday. At that time, the two of them could call each other as husband and wife!
Every time I think of this, there is an inexplicable throb in Gu Xinghe's heart. The bright red figure has long disappeared in his heart, replaced by Yunyan's smiling smile and her innocent words. Maybe God let him come here. , in order to achieve this happy marriage.
Since entering the cold winter, Mu has stopped expanding around and began to build houses and store grain to prepare for the cold winter in the Great Plains, but I don't know why it hasn't rained in the Great Plains for several months, and the rivers have almost dried up. Fortunately, there are still several immortal springs near Mu Maintaining the daily needs of the people of the State of Mu, but if it continues to develop, not only will there be countless grains of grain, but even the people of the State of Mu will gradually go to extinction and difficulties because of the problem of water.
After the Great Mu Kingdom, it was not troubled by the surrounding tribes, but was hindered by disasters from nature.
"Oh, God! Please give some precipitation to our people!" Many nights, Mu often woke up in shock. In his dreams, countless people died one after another because of thirst and hunger.
But no one can tell the reason, even the most well-known witch, and even the smartest wise man can't think through.
Once, King Mu told Gu Xinghe about this matter with his heart and asked him how to solve the crisis, but Gu Xinghe could only shake his head helplessly. There was always great anxiety in his heart about this matter.
Later, on the territory of the State of Mu, a rumor began to spread: the Great Drought of the State of Mu and the surrounding area was because Gu Xinghe ignored the warning of the gods and went to fight at night, which angered the gods in heaven, so they fell sins in the territory of the State of Mu.
The rumors of this argument spread crazily in the territory of the State of Mu. Later, King Mu issued a forbidden order and personally executed several people who spread rumors. These rumors began to slowly decrease, but they have had a great impact on the daily life of the ancient Xinghe.
Later, when the cold winter passed, the drought still remained on the territory of the State of Mu. King Mu once sent messengers to the tribes of the four directions. What he saw was also the scene of the drought. There was no cloud in the sky, and there was endless desolation on the ground, and countless beast corpses. Because of the dryness of the stream, Countless beasts died as a result.
Gu Xinghe thought over and finally told King Mu how to dig a well. King Mu was overjoyed and took advantage of the warmth of the beginning of spring and immediately led the soldiers to dig and dig on the territory of the State of Mu. Therefore, there was a hole on the grassland of the tribal plain.
The emergence of well-drilling has finally relieved the drought crisis in the State of Mu, but it is still unable to solve the problem from the root. What the people are most looking forward to is still a smooth rain.
