Have you heard? ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is ordering someone to find a feng shui treasure to build a martyr's garden for the sacrificed brothers, and at the same time, he is also preparing to build a hero monument here to commemorate the brothers who died in this battle."

The scholar hurried to the barracks and said to the people who were doing nothing.

"Martyr's Garden?"

"Monument to Heroes?"

When Wang Daniu, Chen Haozi, Li Fugui and others heard this, they were immediately confused.

It was the first time they had heard of these things, and they didn't know what they were used for.

"What is a martyr's garden?"

Wang Daniu thought for a while and asked.

"This martyr's garden is specially built a place to bury the brothers who sacrificed this time, and the government will send people to worship every year in the future, and practice with the country, as long as the Ming Dynasty is still there, there will be people to sacrifice every year."

"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has invited the Heavenly Master of Qin Tianjian to find a treasure of feng shui to build this martyr's garden, if he can enter this place after death, this future generation will be amazing, and he will definitely be able to produce capable people."

What the scholar said was clear-sighted, of course, he also heard what people said, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived here, and the reward of silver has also reached everyone's hands, but the above did not order the army to return to their respective stations, obviously there are still things to be done.

"I'm good, this is terrible."

When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.

The ancients were more superstitious, and they all believed in feng shui very much, of course, not only the ancients, even in later generations, there were countless people who believed in this feng shui, and even there were special feng shui masters, mixed with the wind and water.

In ancient times, it was even more so, almost everyone believed in this, the royal family was able to get the country, that was because some of the emperor's ancestors were buried in the dragon vein, so they were able to produce the emperor.

This prime minister is naturally buried in various feng shui treasures by his ancestors, so he can produce cattle people.

Feng Shui has been said to have run through almost the entire history of China, and countless people have believed in this thing from ancient times to the present.

The most powerful feng shui masters of this era are undoubtedly the heavenly masters of Qin Tianjian, these heavenly masters of Qin Tianjian know astronomy and geography, can watch the stars at night, know the major events in the world, see the rise and fall of dynasties, and the emperor's tomb is selected by these heavenly masters of Qin Tianjian.

From here, you can know how good these people of Qin Tianjian are, and they are undoubtedly the most bullish feng shui masters of this era.

Now in order to build this martyr's garden, Zhu Houzhao actually invited the heavenly master of Qin Tianjian to choose a place, and this place selected by the heavenly master is undoubtedly a treasure of feng shui.

Buried in such a place after death can naturally benefit future generations, and let there be cattle among their descendants.

"True or fake?"

Chen Haozi said with some disbelief: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will find the Heavenly Master of Qin Tianjian to find a feng shui treasure for everyone to build a martyr's garden?" ”

"That's right, this Heavenly Master of Qin Tianjian is dedicated to showing feng shui and stars to the royal family, how can he show feng shui to us people?"

Li Fugui also said with some disbelief.

"This is true, not only to see the martyr's garden, but also to build a monument to commemorate the dead brothers, our big guy's money has already arrived, why haven't we ordered everyone to return to the place until now, it's not to wait for this monument and the martyr's garden to be built, and then hold a commemorative ceremony together."

The scholar said with great certainty, and the whole person seemed very excited.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really didn't say anything to us tattered military households."

"Give a rich reward, this is dead, he also attaches so much importance to it, the country treats the soldiers with sincerity, and the soldiers will repay the country with death!"

"If it was in the past, who would have paid attention to us tattered military households?"

"We are just like these lowly weeds, when we die, we are just wrapped in straw mats, thrown into a dirt pit, and buried in it and die, who cares about the life and death of our people?"

"No, never."

The scholar seems to have a feeling, he has read the book for a few years, he is more sentimental, and he can speak better.

When they said this, the others also nodded their heads, they had never felt any respect, and no one cared about their life and death and living situation.

They are as lowly as weeds.

When the court needed them, they had to immediately change from peasants to warriors, and go to the battlefield to fight, and there was nothing for the horse leather shroud, but their death was like dung, without the slightest value, and no one cared and cared about it.

Even hundreds or thousands of households won't care about it, let alone His Royal Highness the Prince.

But now it is different, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gives everyone rewards, there are many rewards for killing enemies, and there are also generous pensions for the dead, and they also build martyr gardens and monuments to commemorate their great achievements.

At this moment, everyone felt the prince's attention to them and the prince's respect for them.

They feel that even if they die on the battlefield now, they will die well and deservedly.

There is a generous pension, the life of the family can be guaranteed, there is no need to worry at all, after the death can also enter the martyr's garden selected by the national teacher of Qin Tianjian, practice with the country, and enjoy the sacrifice forever.

This is the highest honor for them!

In this era, it is absolutely the supreme honor to be able to hide in the emperor's mausoleum after death, and it is difficult for even those who rank in the third rank to enjoy this honor.

These humble and dilapidated military households, who are as humble as weeds, can now be buried in the martyr's garden after dying in battle, such a glory makes them truly feel the respect and care from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at this moment.

"Your Highness is still good to us, but it's a pity that I didn't die under the Tartar knife, otherwise I would have been buried in this martyr's garden."

An older man next to him sighed with a little pity.

"Let's keep your useful body, maybe in the future, you can fight for His Highness in all directions."

Wang Daniu smiled and said.

"Okay, I'll wait at any time, if I'm old and can't do it, I'll let my son go up, and if my son dies, I'll let my grandson go up, Your Highness treats us soldiers so well, how can we not die?"

This one said with a smile.

When everyone next to them heard this, they all nodded one after another, and at this moment, everyone had such an idea.

"Hmm~Hmm~"

At this time, a horn sounded, and when everyone heard it, they hurriedly gathered in the direction of the playground.

"Ladies and gentlemen, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked the national teacher of Qin Tianjian to choose a piece of feng shui treasure land for the dead brothers to build the martyr's garden."

"Everyone also knows that the construction of the martyr's garden is a huge project, and the sacrificed brothers also need to be buried as soon as possible, so the above side has also been ordered, and then all of us must participate in the construction of the martyr's garden and the monument to the heroes."

"When the Martyrs' Garden and the Monument to the Heroes are completed, we will all hold a state funeral together, and then we can all return to the original place."

On the platform, the general of the pioneer battalion also explained the reason for calling everyone this time.

Soon, the pioneer battalion, like the people of other battalions, more than 200,000 people from the three-way army participated in the construction of the martyr's garden.

With 200,000 troops participating in the construction of the Martyrs' Garden, coupled with a steady stream of cement transportation, the construction of the Martyrs' Garden and the Monument to the Heroes is progressing very quickly.

The Heroes Monument is made of granite, and then built with concrete, up to more than 30 meters, with five big characters written on the Heroes Monument in super-large characters, and then there are a lot of small characters that record in detail the great deeds of the counterattack against the Tartars going south, and it is also the names and origins of the sacrificed soldiers engraved on it, so that people will always remember them.

The construction progress of the martyr's garden is also very fast, there are 200,000 people, and there is concrete, and because it is to build the martyr's garden for the dead brother, everyone is very hard.

More importantly, everyone can feel the care and respect of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for them, and being able to be buried in such a feng shui treasure after death is definitely the highest honor for them.

The martyr's garden is selected in a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, a huge mountain is directly encircled, starting from the foot of the mountain, with concrete directly one step at a time, one step at a time.

When they reach a certain position, from both sides of the spacious staircase, there are tombs extended, which are arranged very neatly, like rows of military formations, very strict, and also in line with the identity of these soldiers.

The overall construction of the martyr's garden is very atmospheric, the stairs up the mountain are very spacious, and at the same time, there will be a pair of stone lions guarding the town at intervals.

Each tomb is very simple to build, just a simple tombstone with a name and place of origin written on it, and the surrounding area is reinforced and hardened with concrete.

In addition, there are many trees planted here in the Martyrs' Garden, and there will be trees planted on both sides of the stairs and next to each tomb.

The whole martyr's garden needs to bury the 100,000 soldiers who died in this war, so the scale of the entire martyr's garden is very huge, extending from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, layer by layer, layer by layer, piece by piece, neatly planned, square, dotted.

When you look at it from a distance, the whole mountain is magnificent, like a huge military array, and there seems to be a faint roar of war horses.

At the foot of the mountain is a huge flat land, which is also hardened with cement, and in the middle of the flat ground is the Heroes Monument, which is in a straight line, and the location of the monument is due south and in the middle of the mountain.

Such a huge martyr's garden and a huge monument to heroes were built in less than seven days with the combined efforts of 200,000 troops and the cement of the infrastructure artifact.

This day is an auspicious day for the zodiac, and it is also the most suitable day for burial.

Here in the huge flat land at the foot of the Martyrs' Garden Mountain, 200,000 troops have all gathered.

When the crown prince Zhu Houzhao wore a golden python robe, a golden crown on his head, and led many ministers to stand under the hero monument with a serious face.

Behind Zhu Houzhao, on the right are the commanders of the West Route Army, Dingbian Hou Wang Yue, the commander of the Broken Prisoner Hou Yang Yun, the commander of the East Road Army, Jingbian Bo Liu Yu, the commander of the South Road Army, Lan Tianbo Li Gao, and other commanders and generals of the Three Route Army.

On the left is Xu Qiong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites who has just come from the capital, I heard that Zhu Houzhao built a martyr's garden and a monument to heroes here, and Emperor Hongzhi thought it was very good, so he sent Xu Qiong over to mourn these sacrificed soldiers on behalf of the imperial court.

Next to Xu Qiong is Wang Hua, he is a person from the Prince's Mansion, from the big member of Sanpin, and then the political envoys of Shaanxi, Gansu, and Ningxia, these people are also civil officials, and they are the officials of the feudal territory.

Then there is Liu Jin, the six-grade Hanlin Yuan, and some officials of the Prince's Mansion, who formed a civil representative.

At this time, there was silence at the scene, and everyone's faces were very heavy, and they were silently mourning for the dead heroes.

There was almost half a pillar of incense, and the silence ended, and then Xu Qiong, the secretary of the ministry, began to read out the sacrificial text, which had already been written by the Ministry of Rites, and the main content was also very simple.

The great achievements of these heroes were boasted, and then there was a deep mourning and the like, and at the same time, it was also a surface of the current prince, the current crown prince, and the current court's deep mourning for them.

After the sacrificial text is read out is the environment of the incense, this link is personally come by Zhu Houzhao, the incense on this is not the general incense, but the special incense, of course, the main feature is long and thick, more than one meter long, thick and thumb big, the color used is also bright yellow.

After the incense is applied, the cattle and sheep are slaughtered, which is called a blood sacrifice.

The ancients were very superstitious about this, believing that after someone died, there must be a blood sacrifice, so some livestock must be slaughtered to sacrifice to the ancestors during the New Year's Festival.

After the blood sacrifice is completed, it is time to carry the coffin into the ground, which is proposed by Liu Jin, mainly with reference to a custom of funerals in later generations, and the final farewell is carried out through a shrouded ceremony.

"Heroes are buried in the ground!"

With the shout of Xu Qiong, the secretary of the ministry, every four sergeants carried a coffin and slowly walked towards the martyr's garden, the whole process was very serious and solemn.

"Hmm~"

As the coffin slowly moved towards the martyr's garden, there were also bursts of horns at the scene, and the final farewell was being made for the dead comrades.

At the same time, there were people who began to cry, these were the families of the fallen soldiers, who came to receive pensions, and who were also invited to participate in this commemoration.

Countless cries continued to sound, the scene was solemn, at this moment, countless eyes became moist, especially these Ming soldiers, at this moment, they straightened their waists, raised their chests, and the warm current in their hearts was constantly flowing.
