Chapter 940: A Thousand Generations of Success
In fact, from the very beginning, Yuan Zhao did not want to put King Yan and King Guangling to death. He is not a cold-blooded and ruthless person, there is no need to kill them all, and he doesn't want these two sons of Emperor Wu to die in this desolate place.
However, they eventually died. After the final army came back and told him what had happened, although he was surprised, it was irreparable. It seemed that he had long known what Yuan Zhao was thinking, and Zhong Jun glanced at him calmly, and then said.
"Don't feel guilty, I gave them death at the will of His Majesty. What's more, according to the laws of the Han Dynasty, they are also a dead end. ”
"That being said, they have come all the way here...... Alas! I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me. Every time I think of the grace of the first emperor, I still feel a little sad in my heart after all. ”
Yuan Zhao's expression was a little gloomy. According to his original plan, he wanted these two people who had actually lost their status as princes to be ordinary people here and be self-reliant for the rest of their lives. It can be regarded as worthy of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. However, since the final army had already killed them, he would not blame them too much.
"Yuan Gong's words are wrong...... The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people! Such a concept can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the Han Dynasty, isn't it the credit that was vigorously advocated at the beginning? Why would such a thing be said today? ”
Sima Qian, who was next to him, stopped the pen in his hand, rubbed his wrist, and took over the conversation. Although he has always admired Yuan Zhao, he insists on his own views on major issues of right and wrong, and never casually echoes sycophants. This is where his unique character lies.
The final army also smiled faintly. After he had finished writing the account of the two kings, he sealed them in a book. Then he also put down the pen in his hand and said casually.
"Tai Shi Gong is right, this is not like a person! Killing decisively is the consistent style. I think at the beginning, weren't King Jiangdu, King Langya and others the status of royal princes? Isn't it punishable if you are not guilty? But don't forget, compared with the steady development of the entire Western continent, the millennium plan has just begun. The lives of just two princes are too light. ”
Yuan Zhao couldn't help but have a headache when he saw the serious looks of the two of them. Hurriedly smiled bitterly and waved his hand.
"Alright, alright...... This is the end of the matter. They were all right, but I was too emotional. In the future, everything must be done in accordance with the laws and rules, and if I have omissions in military and political affairs, I need to be reminded of them. ”
Seeing Yuan Zhao's modest and cautious attitude, whether it was Zhongjun, Sima Qian, Xiao Wangzhi and others, they were all very satisfied. Like many people in the world, they would like to see Yuan Zhao continue to lead the Han Dynasty in the right direction and reach a new height in the near future. And the premise of all this is inseparable from maintaining a stable mentality and an attitude of being good at adopting opinions. They were very pleased to see that Yuan Zhao, who had already carried the hope of the world, was still the same as before, without the slightest change.
"By now, all the factors that threaten the development agenda of the Western continent no longer exist. In this case, the blueprints drawn by Yuan Gong can begin to be gradually rolled out, right? To be honest, we can't wait! ”
Xiao Wangzhi, who has experienced several hardships, has long ceased to be an elegant book
The appearance of life. The coarse cloth clothes could not hide the pride of high spirits, and when the full stomach was where it came in, he and a group of like-minded people had waited too long for this opportunity.
Yuan Zhao nodded. He stood up and strode out of his tent with his head held high. Everyone followed behind and walked out. All the lieutenant colonels seemed to realize something, and they all stood up in unison, looked at the figure together, saw him walk to the height, then glanced around, and began to speak.
"All the soldiers who have followed me to fight here for thousands of miles, everyone has worked hard...... Today I can say that we have achieved a complete victory in the Western Expedition! ”
The spring breeze rises suddenly, blowing all over the mountains and rivers. The 100,000 army bowed their heads and listened quietly to the calm and powerful voice of their commander reaching everyone's ears. In countless beating hearts, the blood began to boil.
"Yuan Gong Wansheng! Dahan Wansheng ...... Wansheng! Wansheng! ”
I don't know who took the lead in shouting first, a voice sounded, then dozens, hundreds of ...... The 100,000-strong army was uniform, shaking the heavens and the earth.
The banner is unfurled, the armor is bright, and the blade is shining with a sharp light. An indomitable and unrivaled spirit emerges in the skies over this continent. No matter who is in such an environment, they should also strive to be brave and generous.
The woman who was holding the sword not far away looked intently at the figure waving her arms. The wind swept up the red cloak, and the face reflected was particularly delicate. However, what flowed in her eyes was no longer a sharp spirit that people dared not look at, but endless tenderness. The man she had devoted herself to since her teenage years was a hero like no other in the world she had ever known. He has an unparalleled bravery, and he has a vision and mind that surpasses any historical figure. As long as he is, it represents victory and irresistibility. She is willing to give up herself, and she only bends her waist for such a character.
Of course, in the here and now, it is not only a woman named Yun Bing who is willing to bend her waist for Yuan Zhao. There are also 100,000 soldiers of the Western Expedition, countless tribal people, and thousands of people of various identities who are coming in the direction of the Western Continent.
The turbid waves of the Broken Knife River are monstrous, the Luojia Mountains are endless, and a heroic spirit runs through the mountains and rivers, and even the gray sky adds infinite magnificence. This is the majestic style of the Han Dynasty from Huaxia Shenzhou, which is vast and abundant. That loud voice permeated heaven and earth, and went on.
"All the achievements we have made today are the result of these heroic men who are not afraid of sacrifice. It can be said that without us fighting for the country at the expense of our lives, there would be no tens of millions of miles of mountains and rivers under our feet. This is our feats and glory, history will always remember, thousands of generations later, the people who live in this land, will also sing their stories. When the East and West across the sea merge into a complete world, the name of each of us will radiate a scorching light in the annals of history......! ”
The warriors raised their swords in their hands, and the sound of a tsunami roared from the mountains. These brave men can't think that far. For the time being, I can't understand the huge significance of what Yuan Zhao said. But as long as their efforts can be affirmed and praised by Yuan Zhao, it is already more important than receiving any reward.
“…… Especially the soldiers who have died on this continent in the past few years,
They deserve to be forgotten. Since the soldiers left the Yumen Pass, to this day, a total of 31,058 warriors have sacrificed their lives for the country. Their blood is sprinkled on this journey of thousands of miles, and their bones are fragrant, and their souls are eternal...... Every victory we have won has been won with blood and lives, and it must not be taken lightly. On the flat land south of the Persian royal city, memorials and monuments are already being built. The names and life stories of all those who sacrificed their lives for the country will be engraved on it for those who come after them to commemorate and pay respects. Mountains and rivers are always there, immortal! ”
Yuan Zhao stretched out his hand to take the liquor handed over by Lu Jun behind him, and slowly sacrificed a whole jar to the land in front of him. Everyone bowed their heads in silence as a sign of mourning. Ruoying's soul is knowledgeable, and I believe that at this moment, I should also smile and go away with relief.
All the tribesmen who watched not far away had never seen such a scene. Dignified and majestic, people unconsciously have the urge to bow down and obey. Although they are still full of confusion about their future fate, they have quietly sprouted hope in their hearts.
Yuan Zhao's gaze looked over here, and all the chiefs and elders led their respective people to prostrate on the ground, not daring to look up. They had a hunch that what this great man said next would be related to the fate of all the people on this continent. Sure enough, Yuan Zhao began to turn the topic to the general direction to be carried out next.
"In the inheritance of the civilization of our Chinese nation, what we pay attention to is benevolence and love for the world. Whether it is the Han people, the Yue people, the Baiyi people, the Hu people, the people of the Western Regions and all the people living on the Western continent, although everyone lives in different civilizations, there is no difference between high and low life itself...... The armies of our Han Empire fought in all directions, not to conquer and enslave, let alone to occupy land and plunder resources. It is the responsibility of mankind for advanced civilizations to help backward civilizations make common progress. And we, the Chinese nation, are fortunate to assume this responsibility today, and we must lead and complete it without hesitation. That's why we're here today. ”
Countless gathered tribesmen raised their heads full of hope, and they understood the meaning of Yuan Zhao's words. No one doubts the sincerity of this. Because it was this army from the east that completely wiped out the Persian dynasty that had enslaved and oppressed them for more than two hundred years. It also helped them survive the catastrophe of the Great Plague, and a steady stream of food and daily necessities were transported. Moreover, through the indoctrination of those scholars of the Han Dynasty, the seeds of civilization have been sown in their hearts. In time, they will be able to rediscover another value of life. The heart desires, and knows good and evil.
"Venerable Commander of the Han Dynasty, we are willing to obey your command, please use magical means to ignite this ignorant and backward land!"
Millions of people looked to the dust and worshipped them. They shouted reverently, their eyes full of longing for new life and yearning for the future.
"The sky descends on the people, and the great thing is done! This great cause of the Chinese nation is also the result of a hundred generations! ”
The personal experience of the history of the Great Han Dynasty made Sima Qian, and he couldn't help but look up to the sky and admire. Then, with an extremely solemn expression, he recorded the scene in front of him.
