Chapter 181: What exactly is an insult

this day.

Li Chengqian came to the Qianzi Battalion station.

With the soldiers of the Qianzi battalion, sit on the ground.

At first, everyone was a little stiff.

After all, where is Li Chengqian's identity.

He is not only the king of Qin who was personally crowned by Li Shimin, but also the prince of the dynasty.

The main thing is that he is now the supreme commander of this army.

Later, after Li Chengqian and Luo Dingan teased each other a few words.

Everyone let go and started chatting.

But this family is only the family of the Tang people.

The more than 100 old Turkic people were as if they were not from this army.

They all hung their heads down, and they were very unsociable.

Li Chengqian walked to the center, looked at the more than 100 old Turkic people, and asked, "What, you don't have anything to ask me?" ”

I heard Li Chengqian's words.

A few old Turkic people, you look at me, I look at you.

In the end, one person mustered up the courage to speak: "Your Highness, I have a word, I don't know if I can ask you......"

"To say that it is to talk freely means to speak freely."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just ask." ”

"I want to say ......"

The young Turkic soldier muttered for a long time.

In the end, he finally spoke: "Datang obviously agreed to let us immigrate to live in the land of Datang. ”

"Why do we still have to define the nationality theory and position us as people who are shorter than the Tang people?"

"If Datang doesn't want to accept us, he can let us go back to the grassland, why do it?"

This theory of nationality is naturally beneficial to the Tang people.

Let the Tang people feel the pride of being a citizen of the Tang Dynasty.

Similarly, this will also make those grassland people who were later brought into the Tang Dynasty apprentices by the southward migration policy of the northern people feel humiliated.

Looking at the young soldier, Li Chengqian asked rhetorically: "Why do you want to determine the nationality theory, is this difficult to understand?" ”

"It's hard to understand."

The young soldier seemed to open up the conversation.

"This is Datang's disrespect for us, if Datang doesn't treat us as its own, it will simply define us as slaves."

"And why insult us with such a harsh clause as nationality?"

"You think it's an insult?"

Li Chengqian smiled.

"Of course."

The young soldier looked at Li Chengqian with a complicated look in his eyes.

Li Chengqian sighed and said, "But I think this is preferential treatment." ”

"Don't talk about the others, just talk about the people who are here, they have lived here for generations, and they have been in the army for generations."

"Ask them if any of their ancestors died at the hands of your fathers and grandfathers."

"Ask them if they have brothers who died at the hands of your brothers."

Li Chengqian raised his hand and pointed at Luo Ding'an and said, "Did you see him, his arm was not there when he was fighting against your Turkic iron cavalry." ”

"You think it's an insult, but have you ever thought about how these people feel?"

"They are now willing to accept you and let you dwell in their land."

"They are now willing to accept you and give you the opportunity to be their siblings."

"If you still think this is an insult, then you might as well think about how you treated the enemy captives before?"

"Will you give him good food and drink? Will he be given land to cultivate? Will it give him a chance to be his own? ”

Li Chengqian continued: "I have decided on nationality not to belittle you, but to give you a goal to strive for. ”

"Let you come to the territory of Datang, not let you live a happy life here."

"I want you to know that you have not yet fully integrated into the big family of tens of millions of families in Datang."

"If you want to join us, you must stand shoulder to shoulder with us, back to back, and shed blood and sacrifice for our common country."

Li Chengqian pointed to the more than 100 people.

"If you don't think of yourselves as people of this country, why do you ask us to think of you as our own?"

I heard Li Chengqian's words.

The soldiers of the Qianzi battalion, composed of more than 100 old Turkic people, were stunned.

They all looked at Li Chengqian with a very complicated look, and then looked at the soldiers behind him.

It seems that they always think that they have been humiliated.

But it never occurred to them that they had been enemies.

They have fought to the death on the battlefield.

The Tang people have shown them the broadest heart, allowing them to live in their own land.

It even gave them the opportunity to become Tang people.

But they are still complaining that the Tang people give too little......

Facing the eyes of the rest of the authentic Tang people, some of the old Turkic people who reacted turned red.

Li Chengqian chuckled: "Okay, this matter will end here, if you don't understand, you can go to my house to ask me." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, and Cheng Huailiang walked over with people holding various musical instruments.

Seeing these people, the soldiers of the Qianzi battalion were a little confused.

What is your Highness doing here?

Could it be that you want to sing to your own people?

Li Chengqian faced everyone: "You all know that I love singing, so I hope my subordinates also like to sing." ”

"Since I'm here today and I'm free, I'll teach you to sing a song."

Li Chengqian loves to sing, and everyone basically knows it.

And some people have heard it, such as Luo Ding'an, he has heard it more than once.

Every time, I will be moved to tears.

Especially the catchy Chang'an Shangjing.

Even now, when I think about it, that beautiful melody still rings in my ears.

Of course, what made them remember more than the melody was the lyrics.

But this time, Li Chengqian did not plan to sing these lyrical songs.

Li Chengqian waved his hand and let the group start playing in the order of the previous rehearsal.

The song that Li Chengqian wanted to teach them to sing was very simple.

It is also a very good song to learn, but it is also a very famous military song in the future.

A loud bugle sounded.

The sonorous sound of a carillon followed.

Li Chengqian sang loudly.

"If the motherland is violated, hot-blooded men should be self-reliant."

"After drying this bowl of hometown wine, the strong man will never return."

"Rolling the Yellow River, surging the Yangtze River, give me life and strength."

"Let the blood stain red, and the most beautiful flowers will be sprinkled on my breast."

"The red flag is fluttering, the military horn is sounding, and the sword is out of its sheath, thundering and lightning."

"It has always been the narrow road where the brave wins, forward, forward......"

Although he is a child's voice, he also does his best to express the meaning of this song.

The lyrics of this song are simple and easy to understand.

When people listen to it, they can immediately feel the power contained in the lyrics.

The sound of a loud horn.

Geng's powerful carillon sound.

And the heart-pounding drumming.

There are also sonorous and powerful lyrics.

This gave everyone present goosebumps.

Even after Li Chengqian left, some people couldn't help but get together and sing loudly.

……

Inside the Royal Palace.

Gonggong Zhou reported to Li Shimin what he had seen and heard today.

To be honest, he was really shocked by Li Chengqian's song.

Don't say it's him, after he tried his best to sing this song, Li Shimin was shocked.

"If the motherland is violated, hot-blooded men should be self-reliant."

"After drying this bowl of hometown wine, the strong man will never return."

Li Shimin couldn't help but exclaim: "What a strong man will never return once he is gone......"
