Chapter 211 Martyrs' Shrine
"Your Highness.
Your Majesty and Your Majesty are already waiting at the gatehouse. "
Zhao Quan came on horseback.
Su Jing looked at the people in the capital rubbing their shoulders on both sides of the city gate, and nodded quite seriously.
"Enter the city!"
"His Royal Highness has ordered:
Go to town! "
"promise!"
Thousands and six soldiers agreed in unison.
With one hand, he embraced the urn containing the ashes of his comrades who died in battle, and with the other hand, he held a long rope that bound the Turkic cavalry.
Quietly following behind Fan Lihua and Cheng Chumo, they marched mightily towards Jingyao Gate.
Seeing this, Su Jing quietly retreated to the side of the army formation, and gave the three of them Fan Lihua the glorious moment that shone throughout the city.
With his current status, it is really not easy to contaminate too many people's hearts.
Otherwise, Li Shimin, who has always been suspicious, will definitely let him understand what is the duty of a prince.
"Wow!
This is my Great Tang soldier?
The marching pace is so neat! "
"That's not it!
You have never seen that the martial arts practiced by Dai Guogong himself is even more powerful!
Tens of thousands of people moved after hearing this order, which is not half a point worse than Prince Liu's rate. "
"Is it really that powerful?
If this is the case, then I must bring my son to see it. "
"..."
The people on both sides chatted loudly without any scruples.
Su Jing smiled complacently when he heard this.
Later generations will always have some brainless trolls to speculate on the thinking of the ancients with the eyes of modern people.
Little do they know that the military training methods of the Central Plains dynasties are definitely not inferior to the soldiers of later generations.
Although there was no morale-boosting magic weapon such as Zhengbu in the Tang Dynasty, it was possible to behave in the same way as ordered and prohibited.
If not.
How did the Tang army manage to move the flag, and tens of thousands of troops changed accordingly.
"What are they holding?"
"I heard that it is the bones of soldiers who died in battle."
"Bones?!
Does Your Highness advocate Buddhism?
In the Tang Dynasty, only Buddhism can eliminate karmic obstacles with tea adhisattva. "
"How do I know.
However, I heard that His Highness intends to write books and biographies for Buddhist eminent monks. I think His Highness should have a preference for Buddhism. "
"madness!
If you have a little knowledge, you can talk freely, and you are not afraid of being laughed at by others! "
"His Royal Highness chose to be cremated because the body is not easy to preserve in hot weather.
It is really foolish for you to speculate on the king's will with the hearts of ordinary people! "
"..."
The Imperial College Health Officer looked ashamed.
The two just wanted to pretend to be 13 in front of the people, but they didn't expect to be exposed in public.
However, the two still have a sense of shame, and have never made any strong words to argue about losing products.
Su Jing nodded slightly when he saw it, and stepped into Jingyao Gate with the army.
After thousands of troops filed in, the common people saw the extremely embarrassed Turkic cavalry behind them.
"This is the Turkic elite?
It looks the same as my Tang cavalry. "
"You know what!
This is because His Royal Highness was scared of him.
If you travel to the north, you will definitely see what Turkic elites are. "
"Tsk tsk~
Sure enough, it is His Royal Highness.
Anyone who is an enemy of His Highness will definitely not end well.
In the past, Mixing Wang's family and Yushi Wang's family all ransacked their families and exterminated their families because of His Highness.
Now it's the turn of the aliens. "
"yes!
It's just that this family seems to be a bit too much, with millions of people!
Hahaha~"
"..."
The people speak freely.
Su Jingwen's face was full of anger.
Li Shimin on the Chengtian gate was quite happy, and waited sullenly for Su Jing to come to offer his captives.
"stop!"
There was a crisp shout outside the Chengtian gate.
Thousands of soldiers will suddenly stop.
"The last general, Fan Lihua...
Greetings Your Majesty! "
"Get up."
The deafening shouts of the army made Li Shimin feel extremely refreshed.
Satisfied, he glanced at Su Jing who was standing beside him, and said with his hands behind his back: "When I was first established in the Tang Dynasty, the Turks continued to invade the border and go south.
You and others were ordered to go out ten months ago to fight to the death with the Turks under the city of Mayi.
In this battle, you risk your life and forget to die to win more with less.
Gathered and annihilated tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry, and captured Turkic Khan Jieli alive.
It fully demonstrates the power of our Tang army and the prosperity of the country..."
Li Shimin talked eloquently.
Fan Lihua and the others and the six commanders were very excited.
The common people also opened their eyes wide, staring blankly at the rare royal family.
Only Su Jing covered his mouth and let out a sigh of relief, and kept waving to Mother Su and others on the tower.
He had heard too many such tirades in his previous life.
Since the first day of work, he has been baptized by numerous conferences and meetings.
So far, he still remembers that there was a bureau chief who was familiar with him, and he could even complete a draft for two hours at a time.
And because of this, he also practiced the magical skills of sending messages without any obstacles while looking ahead with both eyes, and playing stand-alone games.
"Your Highness!
Your Highness!
His Majesty is calling you! "
Su Jing was smiling shyly at Empress Changsun.
Liu Jishu tugged at his sleeve anxiously.
"Um?
What are you calling me for? "
Su Jing was slightly taken aback.
Guilty glanced at the angry Li Shimin, stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "I have seen Father!
Respectfully wish the father and emperor immortal blessings forever, live as long as the sky, forever, and unify... the world. "
"Ah……
Hehe~”
Li Shimin ground his teeth secretly, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly involuntarily.
"Prince.
You have made great achievements this time, how do you want me to reward you? "
Su Jing's special status and contribution are too great, and Li Shimin really doesn't know how to reward him.
After thinking about it, he still decided to leave the matter to Su Jing to decide on his own.
"Report to Father Emperor!
Erchen wants a garden, the best garden in Datang! "
"Treason!
Rebel! "
Looking at Su Jing's firm eyes, Li Shimin clenched his fists angrily.
Although Su Jingzhi's advance and retreat made him extremely satisfied.
But asking for the garden in front of tens of thousands of people in the capital really made him extremely ashamed and indignant.
Doesn't the crown prince being so greedy for money prove that Li Shimin is incapable of teaching?
"Prince!
I have already given you the Hibiscus Garden, why do you need a garden?
But recently, you have been working hard on state affairs, and you forgot about it for a while? "
Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.
It is also a step for Su Jing to repent.
"Back to Father.
The minister is not asking for it for himself, but for my Tang soldiers!
This battle is extremely dangerous, and only by the soldiers risking their lives to fight with each other, can the Tang Dynasty defeat the Turks and capture Xieli alive. "
Su Jing took a deep breath, lowered his eyes and shouted loudly: "My son saw it with his own eyes.
When the Turkic elite rushed to the battle, I, the Tang Mo swordsman, resisted with flesh and blood.
Hundreds of people were knocked into the air by Turkic war horses like this, spitting blood in mid-air, they could barely survive.
But even so.
None of the three thousand Mo Dao hands retreated, and the rest bravely took up the position of companions without fear of death, brandishing Mo Dao desperately to sacrifice their lives for the fate of the Tang Dynasty.
And Prince Liu led to face an enemy several times his own, and no one retreated to save his life.
Even if they were besieged by three or five Turkic elite cavalry, the soldiers would rather die with the enemy cavalry, and no one begged for mercy..."
"Wow!"
The audience exclaimed for a while, but fell into a strange silence in an instant.
Tens of thousands of people gasped and cried faintly, and the solemn atmosphere of mourning instantly lingered in everyone's hearts.
Among those who died in battle were relatives and family members of the people present.
Hearing that his own children fought bravely against the enemy, he was proud but also unable to hide his sadness.
Li Shimin's eyes were a little more moved when he heard the words.
He had witnessed such tragic scenes in the past.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have never let him down as an emperor.
"Prince!
The soldiers who died in battle will have their own rewards, what does this have to do with your asking for a garden? "
"Father, how can a few Adu objects show the merits of my Great Tang soldiers.
Tens of thousands of soldiers risked their lives for the people of the Tang Dynasty, and deserved to be respected from the emperor down to the traffickers and pawns!
My son begged my father to build the Hall of Martyrs, so that the souls of my Tang soldiers can rest in peace.
Enjoy the incense offerings of emperors, nobles, officials and common people.
As long as I am in the Tang Dynasty, I will never allow anyone of me to be presumptuous in the Hall of Valor!
Otherwise—kill without mercy! "
Su Jing got off his horse and asked for orders.
All the soldiers also knelt down silently.
Tens of thousands of people hesitated for a moment, and prostrated under the leadership of Youxin: "The grass people thank the Holy Prince for your kindness!"
Finished!
Su Jing gritted his teeth angrily.
I know that at this moment, I must be calculated by someone.
After he settles the ashes of the soldier, he must find out this person and behead him for public display.
