I was a priest in the city-state era

The five emperors in the Five Emperors era were Huangdi Xuanyuan, Zhuanxu Emperor Qianhuang, Emperor Ku·Dijun, Emperor Yao, and Emperor Shun.

After the end of the Five Emperors era, there was the Xia Queen era of the Xia Dynasty.

Xia rulers were called queens when in power and emperors after their death.

Hou Yi was one of the kings of the Xia Dynasty.

The myth of Hou Yi shooting nine days is based on the Xia Dynasty, which worshiped the earth goddess, and attacked Dongyi, which worshiped the sun god.

Nine is the ultimate number.

Hou Yi shot for nine days, which means that Hou Yi wiped out many Dongyi tribes who worshiped the sun god.

Hou Yi, also known as Yi Yi and Yi, was the leader of the Youqiong clan in the Xia Dynasty.

At that time, Taikang, the son of Xia Houqi, was indulged in recreation and hunting and ignored political affairs. Yi, the leader of the Youqiong clan, took advantage of the weakening Xia kingdom's ruling power to launch an attack and expelled Taikang.

After Taikang's death, Hou Yi made Taikang's younger brother Zhongkang the queen of Xia, and the real power was in the hands of Hou Yi.

After Zhongkang's death, his sons succeeded to the throne, and Hou Yi expelled the prime minister and became the king himself. This is known in history books as Taikang lost his country and Hou Yi replaced Xia.

But Hou Yi only focused on hunting and left political affairs to Hanzhuo, and was later killed by Hanzhuo.

Yangzhou.

Haiyang on the north bank of the Yangtze River estuary.

The stronghold of the Athenian expeditionary force.

Roy was not happy at all when he saw that the locals regarded him as the Sun God Emperor Jun.

Because Roy is neither the sun god worshiped by the Dongyi people, nor the emperor of the Five Emperors era.

Thinking of Di Jun, Roy was glad that he did not release the fire of the sun and be regarded as the god of fire.

In the mainland of China, the sun is also the original fire, so the god of fire is also the son of the sun god.

Qi, son's surname and given name Qi, is the son of Emperor Ku and Jian Di.

He was appointed by Emperor Yao to be in charge of Huozheng, the Shang Dynasty. His tribe took the land as its name as Shang, and became the ancestor of Shang Dynasty. He was the ancestor of Shang Tang, the founder of the Shang Dynasty.

Later generations honored him as the ancestor of Shang and the god of fire.

Haiyang's Athenian expeditionary force reached 20,000 people.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the stronghold established by the Athenian Expeditionary Force in Haiyang is a city.

The total number of local tribes outside Haiyang City has a population of tens of thousands.

Roy landed in the sky above Haiyang City and said in a god's voice that everyone could hear.

"Everyone, listen! I am not Emperor Jun, the sun god worshiped by the Dongyi people. I am Loy, the emperor of the Athenian Empire, and I am also the only male sun god Phaethon in the Athenian Empire. I know you must be curious about why I am given the honorific title It is not the emperor, the emperor, and the empress alone, but the emperor and the emperor are collectively called the emperor. This is because my achievements are greater than those of the three emperors and the five emperors, and only the combination of the emperor is worthy of my honorific title."

"Great Emperor, I am the leader of the Youhai clan."

The local tribe leader raised his head and said to Roy.

"Only the co-owner of the world who rules the Central Plains can receive the honorific titles of emperor, emperor, and empress. The current co-owner of the world who rules the Central Plains is Shang Hou Chengtang. How can you proclaim yourself emperor if you don't rule the Central Plains."

"you're right!"

Roy said in agreement.

"I also believe that only the co-ruler of the world is qualified to call himself emperor in the mainland of China. In order to make my status as emperor legitimate, I plan to become the co-ruler of the world. Are you willing to help me?"

The leader of the Hai family nodded without hesitation.

After all, it is just a legend that Xia Houjie and Shang Hou Chengtang were regarded as natural gods.

Roy is the sun god who descended from the sky, but it was a miracle that the leader of the Hai family saw with his own eyes.

Most importantly, Loy had an army of 20,000 iron soldiers.

In the Battle of Mingtiao, Shang Hou Jie defeated Xia Hou Jie and became the common leader of the world with 70 chariots and 6,000 soldiers.

Even if one-tenth of Roy's 20,000-strong army was used, it would still be enough to sweep across the Chinese mainland.

After all, Athenian soldiers used iron weapons and iron armor, which could carry out a reduced-dimensional attack on the soldiers of the Bronze Age with one against ten.

Seeing that the leader of the Hai family was willing to surrender to him, Roy said with satisfaction.

"Then you hand over the power of the leader and go to Xia Houjie as my envoy, and let Xia Houjie come to see me in person. I want to defeat Cheng Tang and become the common leader of the world. It can also be regarded as revenge for Xia Houjie. He should Just do your part for me.”

"You want me to give up my identity as leader——"

The Chinese mainland of this era was also in the city-state era and the slave era.

Whether it was Xia Houjie or Shang Hou Chengtang, they only became the common masters of the world in name.

In fact, all princes, large and small, are the kings of a country in their own territories.

Because wars often broke out between vassal states and various tribes, people were divided into three classes.

The ruling class, the civilian class, and the slave class.

Prince and general Xiang Ning have the guts to do that——

Chen Sheng shouted this sentence in 209 BC.

The year is 1594 BC.

Princes, generals and ministers are born with talent.

Roy wanted to deprive You Hai of his identity as the leader of the Hai family, and the leader of the Hai family instinctively wanted to resist.

Seeing the reaction of the leader of the Hai family, Roy said with a joking smile.

"Not only will I deprive you of your status as leader, but I will also abolish the two classes of nobles and slaves in the Hai tribe. From now on, everyone in the Hai tribe will be citizens of the Athenian Empire. If you want to resist, I can Give you a chance to call in soldiers."

Fight Roy with force——

The leader of the Hai family would not dare to even think about it.

There are only about 10,000 men, women, old and children in the Hai tribe.

There are only about a thousand young and strong men capable of fighting.

And there are weapons from the Hai clan, most of which are stone spears and wooden spears.

With this strength, it would be suicide to fight Roy's 20,000-strong army.

The leader of the Hai family struggled for a while, and finally said with a grimace.

"I am willing to be your envoy to see Xia Houjie."

The next day.

The leader of Youhai clan, escorted by ten Athenian warships, went along the Yangtze River to Youchao State where Xia Houjie was.

Roy also began to assimilate the Youhai clan tribe and abolished various backward traditions.

For example, human sacrifice.

In ancient times, due to the backward production methods, it was natural for humans to become sacrifices.

Livestock eat grass and will not compete with people for food, and they are also animal power for farming.

Slaves will consume the food of their masters and will not work sincerely for the slave owners, so slaves are like chicken ribs that are tasteless and a pity to throw away, and becoming sacrifices has become the main destination of slaves.

Later, the status of slaves was improved, and they were no longer sacrificed, and even the slave system was abolished-all because the production methods were improved and there were better ways to exploit them.

The system implemented by Roy in the Youhai clan tribe was undoubtedly supported by most people.

Those slaves were naturally grateful to Roy.

Commoners were also allocated land, exempted from various corvée and taxes, and no longer had to endure the exploitation of noble leaders.

The only discontent was the aristocracy who had lost their status, power and wealth.

The number of these aristocrats was negligible, and Roy certainly didn't care about their ideas.

Even if they wanted to resist -

Would the commoners and slaves be willing to support these nobles to regain power and continue to exploit the commoners and oppress the slaves?

No one in this world is a fool.

If the nobles wanted to regain power, it was possible for the commoners and slaves to capture them and offer them to Roy.

Nanchao.

This is Youchao State ruled by Youchao.

After being defeated by Cheng Tang, King Jie of Xia fled here and was protected by Youchao State.

Living under someone else's roof made King Jie of Xia terminally ill in just a few years, and he was already halfway into the coffin.

King Jie of Xia's health deteriorated, and his wife Mei Xi burst into tears.

Because once King Jie of Xia died, Youchao State would definitely not protect his wives, concubines and children.
