Chapter 782: Chapter 340: The Great Maha Divine Power_2
From this perspective, as long as the world remains cold, and the Snowy Wilderness tribes lose their grasslands and river valleys, they will eventually face the calamity of extinction.”
Wen Yuan finished his lengthy discussion, and then gave a judgment of the future for the Snowy Plain Barbarians.
However, after concluding his judgment, a smile appeared on his face: “Although the Snow Plains Nomads may face extinction, this is actually a good thing for our Great Chu.
As the cold disaster gradually worsens, the river valley pastures of the Snowy Plains Nomads are shrinking day by day. In order to survive and support their tribes, they can only migrate outwards.
Under the force of this cold weather, even if they are unwilling and fearful, they have no choice but to wage wars year after year.
As long as the cold disaster continues and the lives of the millions of Barbarians remain unresolved, the Helong tribal conflict in Zhou Country will not cease.
This is not something that can be resolved by killing hundreds of thousands or millions of Barbarians.
Unless Zhou Country can kill tens of millions of Barbarians all at once, or kill most of them, leaving only the population that the Snowy Wilderness can support.
Otherwise, as long as there are still Barbarians left, and their tribes still have extra, difficult-to-support populations, they will continue to attack Helong of Zhou Country.
So this war is not a battle of victory or defeat in several or ten years, but a battle of ethnic survival that will take decades or even centuries.
It will be either the extinction of the Barbarians or the downfall of Zhou Country.
Otherwise, this battle will never end.
And with the Barbarians dragging down Zhou Country, our Great Chu’s northwestern border will be worry-free.”
At this point, Wen Yuan stood up and congratulated Lu Yuan with a respectful bow.
There is a saying: the enemy of my enemy is my hero.
If this is changed, the misfortune of others is my good fortune, and the reasoning is still connected.
With Chu State’s capture of Hanzhong, Zhou and Chu have become enemies.
When Zhou Country is struggling, Chu State naturally benefits.
If Zhou Country is constantly held back by the Barbarians, Chu State’s Hanzhong will be safe.
It’s a very simple and straightforward principle.
So even if such thinking is somewhat immoral and cruel to the millions of people in Zhou Country,
For Chu State, for people like Lu Yuan, it must be said that this is actually a great thing.
Therefore, after hearing Wen Yuan’s congratulations, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but reveal a smile and waved his hand, saying, “Zhou is a hegemonic country with a vast territory and millions of soldiers. With its foundation and strength, it is still debatable whether the numerous Snow Plains Nomads can hold back Zhou Country.
We can use those Barbarians, but we cannot rely on them. To forge iron, one must have a hard foundation.
As long as Chu State is strong, even if Zhou People put all their efforts into attacking, what is there to fear?”
Wen Yuan, who understood human nature very well, heard this and said in admiration: “Your Majesty is wise. I have learned a lesson.”
Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but laugh happily, feeling relieved.
…
After learning the true situation of the Barbarians from Wen Yuan, Lu Yuan no longer had any doubts about the Snowy Wilderness and felt at ease.
Years of cold disasters have posed an even more severe threat to the Snowy Wilderness than he had initially thought.
Originally, Lu Yuan thought that the cold disaster would merely make the winters in the Snowy Wilderness longer.
But it seems now.
Not only has winter become longer, but the pasture and river valleys have also shrunken and the living environment has been destroyed.
Under the erosion of the cold disaster, the Snow Plains Nomads are now left with no way out.
Their only way of life is to defeat Zhou Country and capture Helong, a piece of land suitable for survival, before the Snowy Wilderness completely turns into frozen soil.
However, even the land of Helong is not entirely safe.
As the three states and three regions in the north turn into a frozen wasteland, the imbalance of the Four Poles of Heaven and Earth will cause the land of Yong State, which is located at the West Pole, to suffer constant earthquakes, mountain and river fractures, and countless ravines, making it no longer suitable for living.
So even if they take Helong, when the earthquakes come, these Barbarians will still have to continue migrating eastward, all the way to Henan and Nanyang of Zhou Country, to the original Central State land, to be completely secure.
However, this migration process may take a long time.
It will take the arrival of the North Pole frozen soil and the explosion of the Southern Polar Poisonous Fire, the imbalance between the north and south, to affect the east and west poles.
When the earthquakes come, it is estimated to be a hundred years later, or even two hundred years later.
Therefore, for the Barbarians, if they take over Helong, they can still live more than a hundred years of stable life.
It’s just that during this hundred years of stable life, there might be many natural disasters, and Helong will gradually become barren, with less and less output, making it difficult to survive.
“I just don’t know if the Barbarians know about this matter?”
Lu Yuan couldn’t help but ask the Spiritual woman with this idea in mind.
He originally had many questions in his heart, especially about the ancient secrets, and wanted to get answers.
However, due to some scruples, and the fact that every Immortal Sect guards its own treasures, many key pieces of information were impossible to share with Lu Yuan.
Therefore, no matter how many questions he had, it was still difficult to find answers.
The Snow Plains Nomad’s Great Mohism has ancient origins and is even said to have competed with Emperor Hua Guang for the throne of Human Emperor. It has an extraordinary background.
Perhaps through them, some ancient secrets can be learned.
However, after asking the Spiritual woman, the result was quite disappointing.
“A thousand years ago, there was a rebellion within Great Mohism.
At that time, there were rebels fighting for the position of Spirit Master, leading to two factions within the sect, each supporting a different Spiritual woman and claiming to be the orthodox lineage, with many of the Snow Plains tribes supporting each side.
At that time, the Snow Plains was divided, and the river valleys were not unified. The factions attacked and killed each other, and hatreds were difficult to resolve.
Finally, after hundreds of years of fighting, the previous Holy Spirit Master and Spiritual woman put down the rebellion and pacified the chaos within the sect.
However, the hundreds of years of war had left the Snowy Wilderness in ruins, the tribes were broken, and many scriptures and secret techniques within the sect were lost.”
