Sweep the World

Chapter 685: : Divide the world

For a long time, the education received by the intellectuals of the Central Plains dynasty has a characteristic, that is, the Central Plains is considered to be "the world", and any enemy other than the Central Plains is a barbaric, not just the land of summers outside the Central Plains. , That is, those areas south of the Yangtze River, the land of Bashu, the land of Liaodong, the land of the northwest, etc., the areas outside the land of Zhuxia are even more inconspicuous.

The elites of the Central Plains despise not only the geographical difference, but actually even despise the cultures of all ethnic groups. In fact, East Asia has really been in a leading position in the Central Plains culture for a long time. Everywhere, I don’t look down on the cultures of the same ethnic Hmong, and even those of different races.

Prior to the "Southern Crossing in Clothing", the families of the Central Plains looked at the rest of the area as looking at the wild people, and everyone thought they were drinking blood. Even if the Chu land itself is not inferior to the culture of the Central Plains, the families of the Central Plains still look down on the cultural heritage of the Southern aristocratic families. They fled from the north to the south. They were clearly inferior to the south in terms of strength, but they could easily subdue the south, and the psychological superiority would be stronger.

Some people who are qualified for biographies basically have a point in the writing of their books, that is, ignoring the fact that they were caught and killed by a gangster before they fled to the South, and beautify their escape into the knowledge-poor land that brought culture to the South. There is also a saying in the history books that the "clothes sailing southward" brought advanced civilization to the south.

The same is true for compatriots who are also descendants of Zhu Xia, how can we expect those elites to look directly at the civilization of other countries (nations)? The second is from ignorance. For example, I don't know that there are older civilizations besides the Zhuxia civilization, let alone what glory other peoples have had. That kind of arrogance has always existed.

The Central Plains civilization is indeed something to be proud of. Even if it has gone through the "Shenzhou and Shenzhou", the Hu people who occupied the Central Plains copied the political system of the Central Plains. I don’t know how many people are comforting themselves. It is not about learning the advanced Central Plains culture.

The enigmatic self-confidence was broken with the development of science and technology in modern times, and then it entered the stage of total denial of their own civilization. Those so-called elites began to think that they were backward in everything, and even the **** of foreigners was incense. of.

When did the Zhuxia Miaoyi start to stand still? To be clear, after the full rise of Confucianism, any technological development is regarded as an ingenious skill, and only the words of ancient sages are the truth, turning a blind eye to the progress of the times. The second thing is that the Forbidden Sea completely cut off communication with the outside world, and did not see those originally backward nations surpassing, or even surpassing farther.

Speaking of which, there will be many people who do not believe that Zhu Xia civilization has been in the forefront of the world for a long time. It is not wrong to say that it is completely ahead. There are no more countries and nations than Rome, and it seems to be able to stand side by side with Greece in those mysterious and mysterious philosophies. However, there are at least many scientific theories in Greek civilization that have research value in modern times, and they seem to have only viability. ?

In fact, survival (inheritance) is victory. Many nations that can lead the civilizations of the Xia have gone through ancient times. Even nations that have not completely died out will sink and cannot extricate themselves.

There are not many ethnic groups who have fallen and then climbed up. Zhu Xia civilization has been reincarnation in this process, and the other is the Persian who has just climbed up again.

"This city..." Kianusz Alta Aldahir looked at the traffic, and then glanced at some invisible buildings, and exclaimed sincerely: "It's really big!"

Eguta Bahram fully agrees with Kiyanus Alta Aldashir. Their capital is in Tasifon (32 kilometers southeast of modern Baghdad), which is very large and close to the population. Half a million people, whether in Central Asia or Europa, can be regarded as one of the best cities.

Nowadays, there are not many cities with a population of more than half a million, and there is only one with a population of more than one million. The remaining one with a population of one hundred thousand can claim to be a big city. Aldahir is coming to Han When I was in the country, I had some understanding. I didn’t believe that there was a big city with a population of over one million in Han. I only understood what it meant by seeing it with my own eyes.

"I heard that this city originally had a population of more than two million." Egutai Bachram said with a sigh, "the whole world is just such a city."

Jiankang now has a population of less than two million, and nearly 700,000 people have been relocated successively. Even if it has become a hoarding place for sea trade goods due to its geographical location, it has increased a lot of floating population, but it really hasn’t. Break through another two million people.

New Chang'an is still under preliminary construction, and Jiankang is still the most populous city in Han, and it is also the most resident city in the world, and it is not one of them.

The small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty surrendered soon after the Han army came to the city. Jiankang City actually did not withstand the ravages of the war, and kept the dense buildings that should have been. The envoys from various countries were surprised at Jiankang in the east of the world. In a big city, there are climbers to watch.

A group of people from Persian Sassanid are located in Stone Mountain. They can see most of the city, and they can also see the ships passing by on the Yangtze River. They have visited the market before, and no one denies the construction. The hugeness of Cannes has also seen the vitality of this city.

"We saw the construction of the Strait by the Han Empire on the way here, and they obviously made up their minds to reach confidence." Aldahir is most concerned about this. Persian Sassan has reopened the war against Rome. , The Gupta dynasty traded with Rome frequently: "It is very beneficial for us to have the Han Empire to invade the trustworthiness."

The Gupta dynasty was defeated once, but did not acknowledge the overall failure. There were originally voices calling for peace. Waiting for the troops led by Katluk Karp to be wiped out, it turned out that the voice of war suppressed the voice of peace.

The expeditionary forces of the Han Kingdom have been conducting raid wars, and they have adopted a cautious attitude towards entering the homeland of the Gupta dynasty. The two sides continued to engage in maritime confrontations on the Asanyang side, and large-scale fleet battles did not reappear.

Speaking of it, the Persian Sassanid was re-established on the ruins of the Parthian Empire. During Parthian’s destruction by Rome, most of the parthian territory was looted. The current capital of the Persian Sassanid, Tessie, was looted. After being ransacked by the Romans, it was burned into ruins with fire.

The Parthian Empire died in 224 AD. In the same year, the Parthian warlord Altazersis established the Sassanid dynasty. His first opponent was not the Romans, but the last monarch of the Parthian Empire. Daban V.

After Altazersis won and established the Sassanid dynasty, he did not actually seek revenge from the Romans. On the contrary, he waved his weapons to the six nobles of the original Parthian Empire, and successively eliminated and annexed the six nobles into the incubation period.

In the next few years, there were still sporadic resistance movements in various parts of the Parthian Empire, but Aldashir I continued to expand his power east and northwest to conquer Sistan, Gorgan, and Hora. San, Margiana (in present-day Turkmenistan), Balkh and Kransmia, he occupied Bahrain and Mosul. Some inscriptions from the Sassanid dynasty indicate that the kings of the Kushan Empire, Turan and Mokran were all surrendered to Aldashir. However, from the research on coins, it is found that they are more likely to be brought to Aldashir’s son Shapur. A generation.

The Sassanid king's westward crusade against Hattera, Armenia and Adyapona was not effective.

In 2030, the Sassanid dynasty attacked the territory of the Roman Empire, and the Roman Empire counterattacked two years later. Although the Roman Emperor Alexander Severus celebrated his triumph in Rome, the war ended without a conclusion.

After that, the second round of expansion of the Sassanid dynasty did not start again until 1993. The target of the war was the weakened Roman Empire. The war in the first three years was basically a stalemate. Defeat the Roman Emperor Galerius near Linigum.

Galerius was supported by a support army convened on the Danube in the spring of 1998. Nars could not make any further progress in Armenia and Mesopotamia. Armenia launched an offensive against northern Mesopotamia. Nars withdrew to Armenia to fight the Romans. The rugged Armenia was beneficial to the Roman infantry, but not to the cavalry of the Sassanids. With the assistance of the locals, Galerius was defeated in two consecutive battles. Nars.

The Sassanid dynasty started peace talks with the Roman Empire in 1989. This time the Persian voluntarily provoked the end of the war that the Sassanid dynasty confessed and ceded the land. Soon afterwards, Sistan and Guishuang rebelled successively. The Sassanid king was also attacked and killed by the Arabs in a siege.

Shapur II, the current Sassanid monarch, was crowned before he was born, with the crown placed on his mother's belly. In his childhood, the Sassanid dynasty was controlled by his mother and nobles. As an adult, Shapur II immediately came to power and proved that he was an active and influential king.

After Shapur II came to power, he led a small but elite army to resist the Arabs in the south and ensured the safety of the southern Sassanids. He also launched an offensive against the Romans on the Western Front. Although the Persians won a series of battles, they failed to capture Rome because they failed to capture Nisibis and the Romans regained Singela and Amida. The territory of the empire.

The Sassanid dynasty was also constrained by the nomads on the Eastern Front, who threatened the Central Asia River Region, a strategic place on the Silk Road. Shapur II then personally led his troops to the east, allowing his officers to continue to launch harassing attacks on the Romans. Shapur II subjugated various ethnic groups in Central Asia, merged their territories into the Sassanid dynasty, and conquered what is now called Afghanstan.

The war between the Sassanids and Rome at this stage is the re-opening stage. Before the battle broke out, they mainly used harassment and destruction. The problem is that the Arabs within the Sassanid dynasty broke out again. The trend of erosion greatly restrained the process of the Sassanid war against Rome.

"We really need a weighty ally." Before he came to Han, Aldashir had a clear goal, which was to establish an alliance with Han: "The Han Empire does not only appear in trust, they are still March in the direction of the Western Regions. The sea can completely block the trade between Faith and Rome, and the land can join the wars between the Arabs and the Barbarians such as the Hunets."

The Sassanid dynasty had already seen the maritime power of the Han nation through the last battle of Asanyang, and with a consistent impression, it also firmly believed that the strength of the Han people in land warfare would not be worse. History has repeated itself, but this time the Han people are against each other. No one in Persia needs them. Persia needs Han Chinese to join their wars. The sea continues to fight with the Gupta dynasty, and the land becomes to help them suppress all dissatisfied peoples.

This time the Sassanid dynasty sent an envoy to only ask for it. As the envoy, Aldahir must first understand what the Han people need, and use the utmost sincerity to impress the Han king.

"Partitioning the world is a great sincerity." Aldahir is not joking, he said seriously: "We need to defeat the Romans, we can recognize the Han Empire's capture of the Gupta Dynasty, and also recognize the Han Empire's reacquisition. Control of the Western Regions. On the sea and on land, we and the Han Empire can become allies fighting side by side."

Egutai Bachram is different from Aldashir, a member of the royal family who has grown up with clothes and clothes, ~www.wuxiamtl.com~ He doesn’t take things for granted, and says: “Things may not be as smooth as we imagined. The Han Empire is in the dominance stage in Xinduyang, and it makes no difference whether we have the Han Empire. The Western Regions that the Han Empire called were originally their control areas, and it was only a recognition that the Han Empire’s re-control of the Western Regions was not a bargaining chip.”

"Between the two countries needs a country to act as a buffer zone, which can weaken Hunite to the greatest extent, and destruction is not allowed." Aldahir smiled and said: "Hunite cannot be destroyed. Interested in Yueban and Wusun?"

"..." Egutai Bachram wanted to say that even without them, the Han Empire should annihilate the aforementioned countries. He thought so, but he couldn't say it bluntly. He could only say tactfully: "I heard that the Han Empire attacked the Inner Sea Peninsula (Indochina Peninsula) and its credibility was to obtain food."

Aldahir also knew this, and immediately said with a smile: "Although I don't understand why the Han Empire went thousands of miles away to obtain food, how much food should be lost in transportation even if it was so far away. The Han Empire wanted to obtain food, We just don’t lack food, and this is also one of our bargaining chips."

Egutai Bachram felt that this time the alliance between the two sides discussed, they had more or less what the Han Empire wanted.
