History always has striking similarities.

In the era before Li Yuan arrived, from 200 BC to 199 BC, the Western Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu began a series of fierce battles around the northern border, which finally ended with the Huns' troops surrounding Baideng and Liu Bang's defeat.

This time, the fuse between Qin and the Xiongnu was caused by the Aries tribe.

The Xiongnu are known as a people on horseback, and almost all the people are soldiers. If Maodun gives an order and the entire grassland tribe responds in unison, the people who control the strings are estimated to be able to dispatch about 300,000 people.

This number is already 100,000 less than the historical 400,000, and the 100,000 less is exactly the number of troops lost by the Xiongnu in the Battle of Yanbei a year ago.

In order to deal with the Xiongnu, the Western Han Dynasty in history had to rest and recuperate for more than thirty years before it finally accumulated the war horses and armor needed for a major counterattack. It also had enough elite soldiers and generals. However, the New Qin under Li Yuan was not established by Liu Bang.

The old and weak Han Dynasty did not consume too much of Qin's power in the battle to unify Guandong. On the contrary, with the surrender of famous generals, the generals of the Qin army gathered together, and the soldiers became even more fierce in fighting spirit.

Compared with the Huns, who only had one foot in the military, Qin's advantage was its comprehensive national strength. The Central Plains had entered the Iron Age, with the application of advanced technology and the widespread cultivation of high-yielding crops such as wheat and rice.

As time goes by, Qin's advantages in economic development will become greater and greater.

At the same time, in the political and diplomatic games, the Xiongnu persuaded the Dayuezhi people to join them, and the Qin State responded in kind. This is the magnanimity of a great country.

relations between countries.

In fact, whoever has a stronger fist and stronger strength will have the upper hand. In fact, there is no need for courtesy first and then attack, or any verbal protest.

The weak can always be bullied, but only the strong can be proud of themselves.

If you want to fight, fight.

Now that we have broken the relationship with the Huns, we will simply stop doing it and suppress them in all directions. With the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, we will knock down the arrogance of the Huns first.

This is the idea that Li Yuan has always pursued. Since the Huns are ready to be the enemies of Qin, they must endure the difficulties caused by this.

Unite everyone you can and isolate the biggest enemy you want to fight.

This is the self-evaluation of his own side's final victory in the quotations of Taizu of the Republic. Although Li Yuan did not carry any golden fingers, he had these historical experiences and lessons, as well as his familiarity with the future development trend of this era.

It is Qin's most reliable reliance.

Huns.

This nation, which Western Europeans describe as the "Yellow Peril", will definitely be defeated by the Qin army. In the wind and snow of Gaizang City, thousands of Qin army generals are Li Yuan's right-hand men. Twenty million people under the rule of Qin Dynasty

The surnames will also work together and contribute their strength to defeat the Huns.

Population of 20 million.

This is the number of people registered in the Qin State with Fu registration. The number of households is about 520,000. This number is compared with the historical statistics of 15 million and 370,000 households in the early Han Dynasty.

It has increased a lot, and the increase mainly comes from Guanzhong and Bashu areas.

The great turmoil in the history of the late Qin Dynasty began with the uprising of Daze Township in July 209 BC. By the time when Chu and Han were fighting for supremacy in 205 BC, the population had been on a downward trend. By the time of the war between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, the population had been on a straight line.

The decline, the emergence of Li Yuan, and the rise of the Xin Qin Dynasty changed not only the history of Qing Dynasty, but also the lives of many people.

For example, Zhang Han and Zhang Ping were dead long ago. But now they, together with the Zhang family in Guanzhong, have survived intact. There are countless examples like this in Guanzhong.

——.

Outside Yumen Pass, on the edge of Lop Nur Daze.

The Kongque River does not gradually dry up like it did in later generations. Every winter and summer is when this seasonal inland river erupts.

Summer brings heavy rains and floods.

Winter is when the snow melts.

After experiencing a great catastrophe for the entire clan, the Aries Guifang tribe struggled to survive the darkest days in the Lop Nur area.

In the midst of self-blame, Witch King Jinxi used her weak arms to encourage the tribesmen again and again to work hard to live, because only by living can they comfort the warriors who died fighting for the survival of the tribe.

The feelings between people.

Sometimes, just like the white snow falling from the sky, it falls on a piece of loess in the swirling clouds, accumulates thicker and thicker, and slowly melts together, turning into moist soil.

With a you, pinch a me.

How many nights.

Jin Xi was sleepless, her clothes wet with tears. What appeared in front of her eyes was the figure of Bai Qin. This brave and fearless young man was like a bolt of lightning, piercing straight into Jin Xi's closed heart.

As the Witch King, no man from the Aries tribe dared to look directly into her all-seeing eyes.

Twenty-one years old, twenty-one years old. There has never been a man in Jin Xi's life. Every day, in addition to communicating with the gods in the sky, she is surrounded by a group of old people, exuding the charisma of the old people.

Breath elders.

In such a dignified and solemn atmosphere, the girl Jin Xi's nature was severely suppressed, and all her superficial maturity was actually just a disguise.

man.

For Jin Xi, it was a luxury that could only be imagined in her heart but could never be realized. Therefore, when the Qiang man named "Bai Qin", perhaps a Qin man, suddenly appeared in front of her, she

In front of the skeptical tribal leaders, Jin Xi's heart moved when he told the Hexi Qiang people that they were willing to be the vanguard and fight the decisive battle with the Xiongnu.

This kind of heartbeat is first of gratitude, and then of attraction.

Bai Guangji has the unique tenacity and fearlessness of Qin people. When faced with difficulties, he will frown and put forward his suggestions again and again, instead of complaining out of thin air. When faced with difficulties, he will sacrifice himself.

Use his own actions to break through all obstacles and give light to those who trust him.

Such a man is the most trustworthy person for women.

However, such a good man lost his life due to her stubbornness and hesitation.

Jin Xi hesitated on the issue of returning east or continuing to flee west. It was this lack of determination that made the Aries tribe's journey back east extremely difficult.

Looking back now, those small ethnic groups that escaped from the main tribe and fled westward no longer exist. If she could humbly accept "Bai Qin"'s persuasion, the result might be very different from now. At least,

The Aries tribe will not fall into the trap of the Yuezhi people. At least, there will be many more tribesmen who can return eastward to Qin than now.

Just when Jin Xi was at a loss, she suddenly received an order from Li Zhongxiang, the governor of Hexi County, asking her to move her clan members to Yumen Pass, and the place to settle down was by the Ruoshui River at the foot of the Qilian Mountains. This is

In the past, where the Hexi Qiang grazed, the gurgling snow water flowing down from the snow-capped mountains nourished the land, and at the same time, it also gave birth to this river of civilization.

According to the Qin envoy who came to deliver the message, this was an order personally issued by King Wu Li Yuan.

Li Yuan.

This name shocked Jin Xi.

She did not expect that with Li Yuan's current prominent status, he would still care about a declining tribe like them. You must know that Aries Guifang has lost a large number of cattle and sheep, many healthy women of childbearing age, and lost young children.

There is nothing left to help Qin in dealing with the Xiongnu in a short period of time.

A useless tribe.

If placed on the grassland, it would not take more than a month to be divided up by the swarms of other tribes. With gratitude, the Aries tribe embarked on a new migration journey. This time, there were soldiers from the Qin army.

For protection, they don't need to worry about being hunted down, and they don't need to abandon their companions and live alone.

February 13th.

By the weak water.

More than 4,600 members of the Aries tribe arrived at the resettlement place in Hexi County of Qin State. When Jin Xi and others arrived, the officials of Qin State in charge of affairs in Hexi County were already waiting there early.

What surprised Jin Xi was that the Qin official who contacted her also had a surname of Bai, with the courtesy name Mingying. He came from Fufeng County in Guanzhong, which is the hometown of "Bai Qin". This middle-aged man who was somewhat haggard and old was actually Bai Qin.
