Chapter 572: Western Expedition
One day after the battle, Guo Jing took off his armor and ordered his soldiers to wipe off the blood and dust on it, but there were still blood stains on his single clothes, solidified into black spots. Conditions in the army were difficult, Guo Jing grew up suffering and didn't care about it.
He walked out of the camp, patrolled among the camps, checked the situation of the people camping, and issued orders for people to do it from time to time. The Mongolian soldiers admired the Golden Sword Prince Consort very much, and carried out his previous arrangements very well. Guo Jing went around and found no one who violated the general's order.
He turned around a tent and found a man reading a book by the light of a campfire. The setting sun is about to fall, and the sky is dark. In order to see the handwriting clearly, readers have to get close to the flames and bury their heads near the book.
"Borhu, what are you looking at?" Guo Jing walked over to ask, and the other party knew that Guo Jing was around, and quickly stood up and saluted. Guo Jing knew him, he was a centurion under his command, he was brave in battle and made many contributions. He glanced over the book, and it turned out that there was a sentence "At the beginning of human beings, nature is good..." on it.
"I'm reading the Three Character Classic of the Song Dynasty," Boer suddenly blushed. It was really embarrassing to find that he was studying elementary literacy textbooks. "Don't laugh at me. One."
Guo Jing looked around to see if there was no one around, and asked strangely, "Why do you need to read Chinese characters if you want to know how to read?"
Boer suddenly made up his mind, and confessed the truth to Guo Jing: "Golden Sword Consort, I'm a rough man, I don't understand anything, I only have courage, I'm afraid this will be the case for the rest of my life. I still want to go further, I want to learn how to lead soldiers and fight. So I prayed to Changshengtian and I had to give a book of war. The book of war was specially guided for me. Depending on the situation, different characters will appear. But it is written in the Chinese characters of your hometown. If you want to read it, you have to learn it. Chinese characters. I don’t want to publicize this thing.”
"I handed in all my meritorious deeds. I wanted to learn the art of war and pass it on to my kid in the future. If I want to understand Changshengtian's art of war, I have to learn Chinese characters myself. Fortunately, I have made some contributions recently. , I can learn Chinese and Chinese characters when I pray, and I take a basic textbook to review in my spare time."
Guo Jing was at a loss after hearing this: "Changshengtian's book is actually in Chinese characters?" Bor suddenly knelt down and said, "Golden Sword Consort, I have an unfeeling request to learn Chinese from you."
Guo Jing can speak two languages. His mother Li Ping taught him Chinese since he was a child. He and his mother speak Chinese at home. Now there is a subordinate who wants to learn Chinese, he thought for a while and agreed: "Okay, I have time to teach you."
The Huaxia Matrix connected by Guo Jing can learn all kinds of knowledge. Now he reads a lot, mainly military history books, and he also knows some poems and songs. He leads the army and takes the lead in battle, and he is invincible, but he has the demeanor of a Confucian general when discussing affairs.
More than 20 years ago, when Temujin conquered the Naimans, although the Uyghur Tata Tonga, the official of the Naimans, was arrested,
Still guarding the seal of the country. Tiemuzhen praised his behavior of being loyal to his own country, so he ordered him to be in charge of Mongolian documents and seals, and ordered him to teach the prince and kings Uighur to write Mongolian. By this time, the Mongols had adopted the Uighur alphabet to write the Mongolian language.
Up to now, most Mongolians cannot read, and the tribes and even languages are different. Books appeared in Changshengtian for people to study, and many people exchanged meritorious deeds for knowledge, but they discovered to their pain that it was written in Chinese characters!
The prayer to change the text was not answered, and Changshengtian's attitude was obvious: I like to watch but not to roll. Then kindly provided everyone with the opportunity to learn Chinese.
Bor suddenly looked at Guo Jing and guessed, "I'm afraid Chinese characters have a long history and are recognized by heaven and earth, so Changshengtian's books will also use this kind of characters..."
Guo Jing understood what was going on: these things were created by his elder brother "Huang Chao Tianzun". With Huang Chao's temper, it would be good to provide them with books and guidance, and of course he would not bother to translate them into other languages. Huang Chao has no specific idea of cultural aggression, but he will definitely not help the other party translate.
Among the Mongolians, Changshengtian expands very quickly. There will always be people who pray to Changshengtian for solutions to problems, such as how to cure diseases, how to feed livestock, how to count, etc. If they are devout enough, they can get Chinese characters books or Chinese tips... …No way, everyone has to start learning Chinese, and even start to use Chinese as a lingua franca among different tribes.
Temujin felt that this was inappropriate, but he couldn't stop people from learning. Changshengtian has given people strength, and the strengthened fighters have formed the most staunch supporters of Changshengtian. Unknowingly, the royal power was suppressed. It's just because the theocracy is not implemented by "people", and there is no force that claims to have the theocracy to compete with Temujin for power, so Temujin's orders are still smooth.
Temujin banned the use of Chinese characters, and everyone would learn them for their own problems. Temujin couldn't control people who were praying to learn anything in Longevity Heaven.
Time flies, Guo Jing and others encountered a powerful enemy. At that time, Guo Jing's army destroyed Khwarazmo and Xixia, and sold a large number of slaves to Yuan Dynasty merchants. Now he joins the rest of Genghis Khan's army, but is also blocked by the majestic city in front of him.
The Mongolian army believed that they were blessed by the Immortal God, fought bravely, and had advanced tactics, so they never encountered an opponent. However, they encountered another divine sect force in the Western Expedition Map. The other party also firmly believed that they were blessed by the true god, and they fought fiercely without fear of death, and confronted the Mongolian army tit for tat.
Guo Jing is no longer a teenager at this time, his more than ten years of war career has brought many vicissitudes to his face. He stood on a hill and looked at the giant city ahead with a telescope of the Yuan Dynasty, feeling powerless in his heart.
Both the Song Dynasty and the Kingdom of Jin have become history. Now that China has been reunified, the country is named "Yuan". This word is very good, and Huang Chao doesn't care that it has been used in previous worlds. The Yuan Dynasty was established and a calendar was promulgated, starting with the Three Emperors and Five Emperors as the first year, known as the "AD" calendar. As soon as this country name was established, Huang Chao felt that the luck of the Mongolian Empire was completely cut off, and there was no future for development. It was like preemptively registering a trademark.
Guo Jing sighed in his heart, "Too many people have died. If Brother Yang Kang hadn't traded with Mongolia and given us a large number of exquisite weapons, our losses in previous battles would have been even greater. And this giant city is well-defended and well-stocked. Enemy troops have flowed into it, and there are waterways leading to the outside world, making it difficult to siege the city."
The dispute of faith is endless, and the two sides have already forged a blood feud. Many of Guo Jing's subordinates were killed by the opponent, and the prisoners who fell into the opponent's hands were also beheaded or burned to death on the top of the city. On the Mongolian side, the captives were also executed tit for tat, and the two sides were already deadly enemies.
