Chapter 470: Death without Illness
In the void heaven, Ji Zhao stood under a peach tree with his hands behind his back, looking at Luo Wuji, who was entangled with destiny.
In real history, when did the Han Dynasty defeat the Huns?
Ji Zhao couldn't explain it clearly.
After Wei Huo's death, the Han court suffered repeated defeats, while the Xiongnu continued to grow stronger and even gained the ability to fight a large-scale battle against the Han court head-on.
It was not until Emperor Xuan of Han that, due to natural disasters and internal strife on the grassland, the Han court gained control of the Southern Xiongnu who defended the south of the desert, and the Northern Xiongnu fled. The century-long war was finally ended through non-war means.
But the Holy Han Empire, established by the last Huns, participated in the destruction of Han civilization.
How to tell who wins and who loses?
This is why Ji Zhao frowned deeply when he saw Xiongnu Tianming.
Now, the Huns, who should have regained their destiny because of the death of Huo Qubing, are still suppressed by Luo Wuji, and the price is Luo Wuji's freedom.
Luo Wuzhi could feel his blood rushing, and a tearing pain came from his body, as if it was a battlefield, with people entangled and fighting each other.
Every head of the Luo family can foresee his own death.
Luo Wu Ji knew that his time was up.
The sons and daughters of the Luo family were sitting in a circle in the room. Luo Wuji held on and said, "I called everyone here because I have a feeling that my time is coming."
Everyone had expected this and listened with their heads bowed.
Luo Wuji said: "Because of the grace of my ancestors, I was born with a great responsibility to make the country prosperous. As a result, I was favored by my uncle, King Zhaosheng, and inherited the position of the head of the Luo family.
When I was young, I followed Emperor Xiaowu and went on an expedition against the Xiongnu together with Marquis Changping Lie and Marquis Guanjun Jinghuan. I still remember the joy I felt at that time.
On the edge of the North Sea, I killed the Huns' Chanyu. Ten years later, Marquis Jinghuan passed away. I was able to survive in the world because of the blessing of my ancestor King Su, but I became like this.
I thought about it for a long time, and this must have been caused by killing the Xiongnu Chanyu.
The theory of destiny is vague and elusive. Who can explain it clearly except our ancestor Su Wang?
But over the past few decades, I have come to understand a little more. Now I will record the consequences of defying destiny and pass it on to future generations so that they can learn from it.”
Luo Wuji knew that, despite what they said, in the end the family members would still fight against fate, just like him. If he returned to the North Sea, he would kill the Xiongnu Chanyu without hesitation.
Luo Wuji in the room told his experience in detail, and Luo Sheng took notes himself until he stopped. Everyone in the room was shocked by what Luo Wuji said. This was the first time that everyone felt the thing called destiny so clearly.
The complexity of the principles and the unruly operating rules are hard to imagine.
Luo Wuji let out a sigh of relief, coughed lightly, sat up, and looked serious.
Everyone straightened their backs. Luo Wuji looked around and said in a deep voice, "The Xiongnu are not ordinary Hu people. They claim to be descendants of Xia.
During the time of Emperor Li, there were probably hundreds of thousands of people who fled from the Central Plains to the grasslands. Do you know what this means?
This means that the Huns may have really been ordered to do so.”
The biggest problem during Liu Dan's period was that many Han people who could not survive fled. Wherever the number of Han people increased, civilization would develop rapidly.
Luo Wuji sighed, "I have a feeling that after I die, the Xiongnu will gradually begin to revive, their population will gradually increase, their livestock will gradually prosper, and then they will march south again, and even attempt to confront the Central Plains again.
The Western Regions will once again be exposed to the Xiongnu’s iron hoof.”
Luo Sheng said: "Father, don't worry. We have Ashi in the Western Regions. He is a natural warrior who can not only capture the capital of Dayuan, but also lead the people to quell the rebellion thousands of miles away.
The Western Regions still have the Temple Army, and the Xiongnu are not at their peak, so the Western Regions should be as stable as Mount Tai."
After the Temple Army was established, the Warriors were withdrawn. In fact, the economy of Zhaocheng could not bear such a rotation of Warriors. After all, the stationing of each Warrior meant the mobilization of an entire family or even a branch, and the price paid was really not small.
Especially in the later period of Liu Dan's reign, because the world was so chaotic, even the Luo family's caravans did not dare to go to the areas controlled by the rebels.
It is quite terrifying for people to have no food to eat. Those refugees and rebels will at most not harm the Luo family who have the holy marks. As for the Luo family’s caravans, they will also be looted.
This shows the importance of order.
Luo Wuji said in a deep voice: "No matter how strong the Temple Army is, it only has 3,000 people. During the second attack on Dayuan, the Temple Army lost hundreds of soldiers and it took several years to rebuild.
If there were continuous wars in the next few years, the temple army would not be able to withstand it.
What should we do if Dayuan allies with the Xiongnu, Wusun rebels, or even Cheshi and Luntai cut off the Han army's retreat route back to the Central Plains?
A Shi is brave and capable, but governing the Western Regions requires more than just force. I have never seen anyone who can rule for a long time by relying solely on force.
Anyone who attempts to rule for a long time by relying on force will inevitably fall into endless rebellions and shed all his blood, unless he has no worries at all.
This is my warning to the family business in the Western Regions!"
Luo Wuji did two things in his life: defeating the Huns and governing the Western Regions. Among them, governing the Western Regions was the thing he was most proud of, as it completely stabilized that piece of land and provided the Han army with a forward base to blend into the countries in the Western Regions.
Luo Sheng nodded to indicate that he had made note of it.
Luo Wuji felt that his time was finally up. He knelt straight and saw a man and a woman in the endless void. His face was full of surprise. Ji Zhao asked softly, "Wuji, you should have achieved greater success, but in the end you spent half your life lying on the bed. Do you regret it?"
Luo Wuji said softly: "My ancestors, if I could do it again, I would still do it this way."
Ji Zhao nodded, then waved his hand, and Luo Wuzhi's head drooped slightly, without any breath. Everyone in the room felt it, and there was a moment of silence, and then they began to chant spiritual songs.
A scattered stream of purple air shot out from Luo Wuji's body, it circled in the quiet room, and then flew towards the north. When it reached the north, it was like a headless fly, turning around and around, not knowing who it was looking for.
The cold north wind blew past, as if freezing the purple air. There were actually cracks on the purple air. After gradually solidifying, it broke into pieces and no one knew where it fell.
[Dear master, your family's third son of destiny, Luo Wuji, has died. The settlement will begin now~
Luo Wuji conquered the Huns and took on the Huns' Mandate head-on. He used his own destiny to entangle and suppress the Huns' Mandate for more than 30 years, and made great achievements. The Son of Destiny adds luck points, and you get 3,000 luck points.
Luo Wuji opened up the Western Regions, and the Western Regions geomancy map was completely lit up, expanding a large area of living space for the Chinese people. The Son of Destiny added luck points, and you got 1000 luck points. 】
[Dear Master, you have received a Xuan-level item as a reward from Luo Wuji, the Son of Destiny. Please check it.]
The arrival of each system was as expected. The biggest role of the Son of Destiny as the head of the family was to enhance the rewards for the final settlement, and there would definitely be an item of Xuan level or above.
Ji Zhao just glanced at the prop and found that it was indeed an auxiliary prop.
The props given by the system are generally auxiliary, especially the higher-level props. This makes Ji Zhao miss the time when he could use yellow-level celestial props without restrictions.
Ji Zhao felt that if he were to travel through time and space to the world of immortals and heroes, he would have already become the ancestor with the help of powerful artifacts such as the Yuan Ding.
But in this world without magic, those artifacts that are almost as powerful as gods can only exert their power to a certain extent and are still limited by their luck points.
The news of Luo Wuji's death spread quickly. The clan members in Zhaocheng found it hard to believe and could not accept the sudden death of their head of the family.
The Han Dynasty had been passed down for more than a hundred years, and the emperor had gone through six generations of monarchs, including Gao Hui, Wen Wu, Ding Li. However, the Luo family only changed three heads of the family. In particular, Luo Ling lived too long. Although Luo Wuzhi had poor health, he also lived a very long life.
"The head of the family lived during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu."
When this well-known yet always ignored matter came out of someone's mouth, everyone fell silent.
During these short forty years, the Han Dynasty had changed three emperors and experienced so many major events, including the defeat of Emperor Xiaoding, the rise of Emperor Li, the chaos in the country, the Fengtian Jingnan, and then the ascension of Emperor Yuanfeng.
Now, suddenly recalling that Luo Wuji was actually the Grand Marshal and General of Cavalry during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu, everyone felt as if they had traveled through time and space.
"Send a message to the princes of Guandong and the Emperor of Chang'an. Take this opportunity to tell the world that the Luo family will open Zhaocheng and make the country their home for a hundred years. Now is the time to re-enter the world."
Duke Zhao passed away!
An era ended, and most of the important officials during the reign of Emperor Xiaowu had basically disappeared since then.
In Chang'an, Liu Bingyi sighed, "Time is really a great power."
————
Duke Zhaowuwei's real name was Wu Ji. He was his father's posthumous son and was born with purple energy. He was entrusted with a great responsibility by heaven. King Zhaosheng loved him and thus he succeeded to the throne.
Wu Ji had great ambitions and grand intentions since he was young. He accompanied King Zhaosheng and experienced many things. At the age of thirteen, he was familiar with military strategies and studied military books in depth. King Zhaosheng praised him and said, "My son is a unicorn."
At the age of seventeen, he was selected as a scholar. Emperor Xiaowu loved him and gave him Yingyang. He was sent to pacify the desert and was also given Xiaoqi.
Wuwei was brave and led 100,000 cavalry across the desert, striking with lightning and thunder, trampling the desert screen, descending the Yellow River in the west, seizing Qilian and taking Yanzhi, pursuing the enemy to the north, and then advancing into the Western Regions. He pacified the brave Hu people, turned eastward, and was seen in the northern border. He fought in battles over thousands of miles and was victorious in every direction. In the end, he attacked and killed the Chanyu and eliminated the threat from the north. He was truly a famous general in ancient times, and nothing more than that.
Wuwei pacified the Western Regions, intimidated them with weapons, and educated them with education. He opened government offices, established marquisates, established institutions, and was friendly to the barbarians. Subordinate states vied to attach themselves to him. He prospered without resorting to military force. The trade routes were open, gold was paved, and the people were not taxed, while the territory was expanded by thousands of miles. How could he be inferior to the famous prime ministers of ancient times? - "Records of the Grand Historian: The Family of Luo Zhaogong"
