Chapter 1717: Reincarnation of Chaos


    It is actually not easy to change people’s habits. It''s like reminding yourself not to stay up late every day, but still cultivating immortality at night.


    ?But overall speaking, it is easier to return to Chinese customs from the state of the Hu people than to civilize the Hu people.


    Fei Qian was ready to return to Chang''an, but his last schedule in Yinshan was to inspect the recovery and changes of the Luhui clan, or the Dou clan that had become barbaric.


    After wandering around and looking around, Fei Qian found a place to rest temporarily on the back mountain outside Dou''s village. Naturally, he was accompanied by Dou Tong and Yu Fuluo, who was thoughtful along the way.


    Huang Xu and other guards arranged the curtain, then took a small clay stove, lit a charcoal fire, put a pot of water on the seat, and started to boil.


    Fei Qian looked at Dou Tong and said: "I''m not being polite, but now is the busiest time, so I won''t cause any trouble to your people... Do it well and don''t worry about these customs! Wait until next time when you come again. It’s not too late to go drink in your camp…”


    Because Luhui tribe has been away from Dahan for quite a long time, including two or three generations, so although he wants to change back and start farming again, many things have become unfamiliar, and some of the nomads Livestock also need to be taken care of, so during the period after the autumn harvest, they have to be busy with crops and prepare fodder for the livestock for the winter like nomads. It is indeed very busy, and it can even be said to be a bit panicked.


    Dou Tong was very impressed and moved by Fei Qian''s reasonableness, but he still felt that it was a pity that he could not entertain Fei Qian. He apologized repeatedly, and finally gave up after Fei Qian accepted some of the corn harvested by Dou Tong and others this year.


    Fei Qian asked people to put away the corn first, then looked at Hufro who had been silent along the way, and said with a smile: "Chanyu, what''s the matter? Are you still worried about the craftsmen?"


    Humphrey nodded subconsciously, then denied it, and finally said helplessly: "I didn''t...well, there is indeed a little bit..."


    Fei Qian laughed, pointed to the kettle that started to gush and steam, and said, "Come on, let''s drink tea first, drink tea, and we''ll talk while drinking tea..."


    The tea soup is clear and the tea is fragrant.


    Dou Tong drank a cup of tea and couldn''t help but admired: "When I left my hometown, I was heartbroken by the turbid wine, but when I returned home, I was calmed by the fragrance of tea! I never thought that the fragrance of this tea is so pure, refreshing and wonderful!"


    ?Huvro also nodded in agreement.


    Fei Qian held the tea cup and said: "Chanyu, do you know that in ancient times, this tea was actually not much different from ordinary trees... In other words, if today''s tea trees are planted in the wilderness, they will not be able to survive for thirty or fifty years. Every year, the aroma of tea will be lost... Do you know why? "


    Seeing that Yu Fuluo was a little surprised, Fei Qian did not answer Yu Fuluo, but continued: "At the beginning of China, there was no difference between the ancestors of Shan Yu... Just like this tea tree, they were all trees at first, and then they gradually became There have been changes...Tea trees in the wild are not much different from ordinary trees, but only tea trees that are specially planted can harvest such tea leaves..."


    Yufro looked at the tea bowl in his hand, then looked up at Fei Qian, and said: "But these tea trees planted have to withstand all kinds of pruning and picking..."


    Fei Qian burst out laughing, pointed at Dou Tong and said, "Mr. Dou, you must know about Yu''s establishment of Xia? You might as well talk to Shan Yu..." Dou Tong had been the prefect of Yanmen for a while. , so it’s not wrong to call him “Shijun”.


    Dou Tong said quickly: "I dare not take this title. The general calls the old man by his name... Chanyu. Dayu is the leader of the Xia Hou family and the founding king of the Xia Dynasty... Kong Zhongni once said, ''Fei eats and drinks to be filial to ghosts and gods, and to be evil. The clothes are as beautiful as the crown, the palace and the palace are as beautiful as the ditch. Yu, I am like this. Daxia is the ancestor of China..."


    Humphrey nodded and said, "I generally know something about this...but general, why do you say this?"


    Fei Qian laughed twice and said: "''Wei Yu''s achievements, Jiuzhou Youtong, Guang Tang Yu Ji, Miao descendants of virtue'', these sixteen characters of Tai Shigong are really precious and remarkable... Before Yu, people succeeded to the great throne with their talents and talents. After Yu, it was passed down from son to son... Shanyu, Dayu was the first person to prune the tea tree. On the Tu Mountain, he beheaded the Fangfeng clan and his son Qi, defeated Dongyi and Youhu, and finally determined the change of the entire system..."


    "Chanyu, what will happen if this tea tree is not pruned and cannot be picked?" Fei Qian laughed and said, "Is it so sweet in the wind and rain? Before Dayu, China was like a desert. Like those small tribes in the world, they are struggling to survive in the world. All the cattle and sheep have been lost. Anyway, there are only a few people. When something happens, they will discuss and fight together. If there is meat, everyone will eat together, and there will be wind and rain together. Yes, it''s fair, right? But, Shanyu, have you noticed why there are fewer and fewer small tribes like this in the desert? Shouldn''t such a fair tribe that is not subject to any restrictions grow stronger every day? Get up?"


    “This…” Humphrey could not answer.


    Fei Qian pointed to his chest and said, "Because everyone has selfish motives!"


    In the days of primitive tribes and clans, productivity levels were extremely low. If you wanted to survive, you had to rely on the collective labor of all clan members to maintain the acquisition and production of extremely poor living materials. Therefore, under such conditions, it is natural that all life products are collectively owned by all clan members, distributed equally, and consumed every day. There is neither private ownership nor exploitation. The so-called "public and selfless, sharing the cold, sharing the hunger" Hungry", under a relatively fair system.


    Under such circumstances, "Yao and Shun''s abdication" has a foundation.


    By the later period of Dayu, production had begun to have surpluses, and human classes began to be born. At this time, the so-called "concession" system was naturally changed and the "inheritance" system was formed.


    "So this is an unavoidable problem..." Fei Qian put down the tea cup and continued, "The tribe is small and is swallowed up by other people. When the tribe is big, it naturally has thoughts... So, either passively change, like It is the Dongyi and Youhu generals of China who either took the initiative to change and adapt, just like Dayu and Xia Qi..."


    "This is the path chosen by Chinese people in ancient times... And now, Shanyu, you are also standing on this forked road..." Fei Qian smiled, but there was not much warmth in his smile, "How to go, choose No matter what path you take, it is related to your descendants... Of course, in fact, we are all at a fork in the road now, and we are all faced with the problem of how to go... So, this is not something to be embarrassed about, but how to choose, how to We still have to decide it ourselves... Shanyu, are you right?"


    In the history of China, there have been many stages of Barbarian rule, but without exception, these Barbarians eventually abandoned their original tribal habits and became a part of China. There are many reasons for this, but private ownership is the reason. Class differentiation and the collapse of tribal alliances also caused these barbarians who took over China to eventually follow the path of China, instead of leading the people of China to the path of nomadic tribes. From the beginning of Yanhuang, war has not been about pure revenge, but has the attributes of plunder and conquest!


    So once war is cut off from conquest and plunder by those Confucian scholars, it naturally loses its original benefits and power...


    War is for conquering, and education is for domination. War without conquest is meaningless, just as education without **** is ineffective.


    At present, not only the Hu people are facing the problem of road choice, but China itself is also facing the choice. But what is very interesting is that the old habits make the Hu people and Han people run on the old road invariably, so that In the following dynasties, scenes of reincarnation will be shown.


    Dou Tong has matured in his old age. After listening to Fei Qian''s words, he seemed to have thought of something and lowered his eyes slightly, thoughtfully. On the other side, Humphrey was silent for a long time. He wanted to say something several times, but in the end he said nothing...


    As time went by, Yuvrou felt that the distance between him and Fei Qian seemed to be getting bigger and farther. When he came here before, Yuvrou wanted to find an opportunity to talk to see if he could Let Fei Qian relax or something, but when he got in front of Fei Qian, Yuvluo found that he seemed to be speechless...


    Fei Qian took him to see the situation of the tribe without deer, and Yu Fuluo was more or less aware of it. He just said that deep in the desert, there were still many people who admired China and were eager to come back. Yu Fuluo Other tribes also have things they can rely on.


    There were Southern Xiongnu before, but now there are Luhui, and will there be other tribes in the future?


    So in the end, Humphrey didn''t say anything silently until he left.


    Humphrey felt that he needed to go back and think about the words of the hussar general Feiqian...


    It is not easy for nomadic people to change their old habits and move towards new prosperity and civilization. Similarly, it is not easy for the descendants of Yan and Huang and the Chinese nation.


    Although Fei Qian was not troubled by war during this period, it was not easy either. He discovered that in fact, when every Chinese dynasty changed violently, it was actually when the entire society reached a fork in the road, and when dynasties were at a fork in the road, Some of the reforms and changes that have taken place have been successful, and some have failed...


    The Xia Dynasty can be said to be the starting point for China to move from the primitive clan tribal system to the slave social system. Dayu killed the Fangfeng clan, and his son also killed the opponents Dongyi tribe and the Youhu clan, and then the entire successor could be officially determined The system changed from abdication system to inheritance system.


    This is the earliest pioneer of institutional reform in China.


    Standing on the long river of history, Fei Qian seems to have seen the hesitant and tentative footsteps of Dayu...


    The reason why reformers are great is because when they take that step, they have no other experience to draw from. China has no shortage of warriors who dare to explore and take a new path, but why do later generations of China have the methods of their ancestors? Immutable? Can the law of eternity be applied to eternity?


    This is a huge proposition. For Yu Fuluo, Fei Qian can give suggestions, and even told Yu Fuluo that there have been such people in Chinese history who have done such things, but for Fei Qian himself, But no one can tell Fei Qian how to go next.


    Devoting all the troops to destroy other princes?


    This may be a goal, but what about later? Is there a new path for China''s political system to find a new direction and get rid of China''s thousand-year cycle of rise, fall, and chaos?


    It is always easy to make a choice from the perspective of history, because you can clearly see which reform method truly adapts to the flow of history, but for those who are deeply involved in it, it is not so easy to see clearly. thing.


    Yu Fuluo left, and Dou Tong sent Fei Qian hundreds of miles away before they separated from Fei Qian.


    Fei Qian invited Dou Tong to go to Chang''an with him. Dou Tong smiled and shook his head and said that he was old. He had brought his people to this point and had completed his mission. Next, can the young people It''s up to them to go to Chang''an...


    Fei Qian also understood what Dou Tong meant and couldn''t help but laugh. He looked at the Dou family disciples behind Dou Tong, nodded and said, "With Dou Commandery here, why worry about no outstanding people in the future?"


    Dou Tong bowed down and said, "Thank you, General, for your kind words!"


    The Dou family can be said to have witnessed the glory and decline of the Han Dynasty. There have been several great generals in the Dou family, more than a dozen with two thousand stones, and even three Queen Mother Dou!


    "Uncle..." Seeing that the hussar general Fei Qian had walked away, Dou Tong''s grandson Dou Li, who was standing by, came up and said, "Well, the hussar general has invited me... why don''t you follow me to Chang''an?" The older generation talks about the prosperity of Luoyang, Chang''an, and the younger generation is naturally yearning for it and eager to go and see it.


    Dou Tong looked at Dou Li, shook his head, and said: "Is Chang''an so easy to get to? Now Chang''an is like a whirlpool. Our little sampan like Dou''s is not even able to topple if it falls in... You I’ll read more when I get back!”


    Dou Li did not dare to say anything more, he could only bow his head and say yes.


    "Dayu..." Dou Tong stroked his beard and squinted at the direction Fei Qian was walking away, "Dayu is good at controlling floods... General Hussar, the floods in the world are surging, and they are not easy to control..."


    "Father?" Dou Li didn''t hear clearly, "Father, what did you say?"


    “It’s none of your business!” Dou Tong waved his hand and said, “Go home!” Dou Tong took the lead to walk back, but did not see Dou Li behind him. He frequently looked to the south, with a look of longing in his eyes...
