Chapter 285: The Heart of a King
On the mountainside of Huashan Mountain, the martyr's mausoleum, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the forty-eight golden drums rumble and resound through the sky. Emperor Guangwu of Great Qin, Mo Feng, together with Empress Luo Qingyao, the infant prince Mo Lin, and a group of civil and military officials gathered in the cemetery to surpass the soldiers of the Qin army who died in battle.
Mo Feng had always been very disgusted with the cumbersome procedures of sacrifice, but today, it was very different. Not only did he have a solemn expression and a solemn face throughout the whole process, but he was also extremely pious. The whole sacrificial process, the etiquette is thorough, and the piety is great, and its performance makes some Taoist priests who preside over the sacrificial ceremony can't help but look sideways, thinking that His Majesty the Emperor of Daqin is a believer in Taoism.
What is even more touching is that when His Majesty the Emperor read the touching and heartfelt sacrifice in the last link of the Ministry of Rites, the tears in his eyes couldn't help but remain. Although His Majesty the Emperor wiped it off in time, the red eyes could not deceive people.
"Your Majesty, please!" At the end of the ceremony, Li Gang invited His Majesty the Emperor to come to the stage to speak for the ministers. This habit is unavoidable in any time and place, in which era.
And this is also the moment that Mo Feng has been waiting for for a long time. With the long sword in hand, Mo Feng walked towards the altar step by step, with incomparable conviction. After standing still, Mo Feng's voice rang out:
"Ministers, soldiers, since the orcs broke through the elm pass in the fifteenth year of the Apocalypse, the people of the Celestial Star Empire have been killed, the soldiers have died, and the number of victims has reached millions.
The Celestial Star Empire was unable to resist the orcs, lost its teachers and humiliated the country, and was defeated one after another. Fortunately, I inherited the mandate of heaven and replaced it with the celestial star. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the civil and military officials of the Great Qin were united, and the officers and men of the three armies regarded death as home, not afraid of hardships and sacrifices, so that they could force them to retreat and recover several states, which is the current situation.
However, there are many dead people and soldiers, and there are still white bones and violent corpses in the wild in the land of several states recovered by my Great Qin. The orcs committed such a great feud, how can it be eliminated by recovering the lost territory. I, Mo Feng, swear here that in my Mo Feng's lifetime, I will personally raise a large army and kill into Liaozhou to avenge the dead people and soldiers. ”
"Revenge! Avenge! The soldiers of the Yulin Army, inspired by Mo Feng, roared angrily. The officials under the altar were infected by the shouts of the soldiers of the Yulin Army, and they also held the wat board in their hands high and roared angrily.
"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!" ...... "Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!" ”
"If you kill me as a Qin person, you will pay it back tenfold!" ...... "Kill me as a Qin person, and you will pay it back tenfold!" ”
Mo Feng didn't shout, the soldiers and ministers below all followed Mo Feng's shout, and now there were only two words left in their minds: revenge.
Mo Feng looked at all this with satisfaction, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Today, it is not just as simple as paying tribute to the souls of the dead, Mo Feng also has the purpose of collecting people's hearts and unifying people's hearts. From now on, there will only be one voice within Great Qin, and there can only be one voice.
Jiang Shang, Fan Zhongyan, Xiao He, and Zhuge Liang looked at each other, and while no one was paying attention, they nodded slightly, and the corners of their mouths also showed a hint of a smile. Ten days ago, when Mo Feng wanted to propose to Huashan to sacrifice the souls of the soldiers who died in battle, they knew that Mo Feng's intentions must not be so simple.
Sure enough, Mo Feng's performance today confirmed their guess. The serious, pious attitude and remorseful expression are not only Mo Feng's memorial to the soldiers who died in the battle, but also for today's impassioned and exciting speech. After that, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and the soldiers of the Yulin Army did not dare to have two hearts about Mo Feng. Above the court, I am afraid it is difficult to have a voice against him.
In addition, the good show a few days ago, as well as the comforting ambassadors sent to various places, whether it is the hearts of the people or the army, will be returned to their Emperor Majesty in a very short time.
In the future, as long as their Emperor Majesty has enough reasons to say where to attack, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will definitely not have different opinions, and the army of hundreds of thousands of tigers and wolves will also become the sharpest blade in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.
Jiang Shang and the others' expressions, Mo Feng naturally noticed it, and Mo Feng was naturally clear about what they thought in their hearts. Everyone is a smart person, and this kind of trick can deceive others, but it can't deceive these "fox reincarnations".
The moment the eyes of the two sides met in the air, several people also changed their attitudes, and like the ministers, they roared like crazy disciples.
Looking at their rather cooperative appearance, Mo Feng was quite satisfied in his heart, sober when he should be sober, and confused when he should be confused. Several of them already know very well what role they should play. Between monarchs and ministers, it is necessary to have this tacit understanding, this kind of harmony, so that Daqin can be stronger and more brilliant.
In Xianbei Hu, the relationship between monarchs and ministers is not so harmonious. Murong Ke finished inspecting the four clans with his front foot, and just returned to Murong Clan's tooth tent, Jingjue City, and saw the grain, grass, and baggage sent by Qin State, and the thank you gift that Great Qin promised to give to Xianbei Hu, and his hind foot was unhappy.
The reason is very simple, Daqin's envoy, his old friend Ban Chao has come to visit Xianbei Hu again with a team of envoys. When he saw the many Daqin specialties brought by Ban Chao, Murong Ke thought that Ban Chao had sent him a gift again.
But after asking, I found out that only one-fifth of so many gifts were for myself, and the rest were for the other four tribes. The reason given by Ban Chao is also very reasonable, so that he can't find a thorn, and if he is reasonable, he can only swallow it in his stomach if he is angry.
The armies of the other four divisions, although they did not fight alongside the Qin army like the army of the Murong clan. However, their army eventually became the backing of the Qin army. Garrisoned the territory of the Yuwen clan, and did not let the orcs go around from behind and attack them. In this way, they will be able to gather their forces without worries and go all out to deal with the orcs.
The moment he heard Ban Chao's reason, Murong Ke was about to explode. What is "stationed in the territory of the Yuwen clan". Qin Guo, this is clearly pretending to be stupid with him!
Why are the coalition forces stationed in the territory of the Yuwen clan, what is the reason, Qin Guo is not clear, Mo Feng is not clear, they know better than anyone else, and now they are pretending to be stupid with him. It's not because he was ordered by him that he was worried that the Yuwen clan would rebel against the human race again and fall to the orcs, so as to enter the Yuwen Ministry!
Now, fortunately, the credit is all their own, and they have nothing to do with themselves. These materials have to be given to them, which makes his face of Da Shan Yu go anywhere. Isn't that a slap in the face! Sending baggage is all an excuse, and the actual purpose is not to win over the other four departments, so that they can restrain themselves.
If he really let Qin Guo's plan succeed, then his previous series of actions such as showing off his strength and showing off his results would not be in vain. In Murong Ke's heart, there was a sense of anxiety, no, he must not be able to let Qin Guo's plan succeed.
But how could they not succeed in their plan, and the ambush soldiers intercepted Ban Chao on his way to the rest of the four clans. No, this is not appropriate, if the interception and killing fails, the fool will understand that it was him Murong Ke who did it. The Qin State will definitely raise troops to invade, Liangzhou, and the 90,000 troops of the Qin State are eyeing it! With the current strength of the Murong clan, it will definitely not be able to resist. The other ministries will only sit idly by.
The only way is to move the capital, move the royal court of Xianbei Hu to the core of the entire prairie, and move it to the tooth tent of the Dugu clan, so that you can control the overall situation. Moreover, there can only be one way to move the capital this time, and go with the envoys of Qin. In this way, not only can Ban Chao be more restrained, but also can monitor their movements all the way, so that their influence can be minimized.
