Chapter 260: Old Qin
On the side, Huang Haoran smiled and quipped: "Ask, don't be humble, the king doesn't know your talents, doesn't he know?"
He and Jia Wendao are considered to be ignorant of each other, and when they fight, they meet a little, and they can guess what the other party is trying from the changes in the battlefield situation.
After Jia asked about the surrender, on the way, they had a long talk, and they felt like they were late to see each other.
After all, he and Jia asked, they were all good at military affairs, and they talked freely with each other, like a thousand glasses of wine and confidants.
"Your Majesty, when the minister returned, he learned that the king wanted to destroy the Wei State, and he discussed it with Daodao, and he had some plans."
"Really?"
Ji Xuanling was taken aback, turned his head to look at Jia and asked, Jia asked and hugged his fists and said, "A few proposals that do not enter the stream, it is difficult to enter the king's vision." ”
Advice for not entering the stream?
Ji Xuanling didn't believe it, and said sincerely: "Ask, this king sincerely invites you to join Qin as an official!" ”
Jia asked, knowing Ji Xuanling's ability, he knew his ambition better.
After a pause, he bowed down and said, "Thanks to the king's refusal to give up, I asked if I would like to enter Qin." ”
"Good, good, good!"
Ji Xuanling slapped Jia Dao and asked a wide palm one after another, and shouted repeatedly: "In this way, Ai Qing is temporarily appointed as Shang Shucheng, and in charge of the palace Chinese book issuance, in the coming day, this king will seek a high position again." ”
"Thank you, the king!" Jia asked, commanded.
Tiger and wolf ride, Dejia asked, Ji Xuanling was in high spirits, walked two or three steps, the tiger's eyes swept past the murderous Xiaowu army, raised his arms and shouted: "This battle, Xiaowu army, everyone has merit, please go to the Heroic Soul Hall to worship, and reward meritorious deeds in the military camp." ”
"Thank you, the king!"
The three generals were all happy and knelt on the ground to salute.
I don't know who shouted long live, and in an instant, the soldiers of the three armies were like hot wastewater, raising their soldiers and shouting in unison, and the people watching outside the city gate were deeply affected and shouted long live.
Hearing this, Ji Xuanling smiled at the corner of his mouth, was full of spirits, stepped on the war horse, signaled the three armies to move forward, and the officials chased after him, heading to the Heroic Soul Hall in the southeast of Xianyang City.
At the beginning, he proposed to build the Hall of Heroic Souls, hoping to enhance the cohesion of the Qin State, strengthen the courage of all the soldiers in battle, and the sense of belonging to the Qin State.
From the guarantee of the Qin army, always maintain a strong combat effectiveness.
The monarch and the minister went to the Hall of Heroic Souls, and the people who were watching nearby also followed.
When the Hall of Heroic Souls was built, everyone in Xianyang City knew about it.
Many merchants from various families specially donated money and food, or sent domestic servants to help.
In the process of moving forward, there are already people talking.
"The king sent Xu Yuan to build the Heroic Soul Hall to place the heroic souls who died on the battlefield, in the future, if there is a recruitment, those who join the army will be like a carp crossing the river!"
"Who says it's not, it is rumored that if you go to war with the army and make meritorious achievements, you can be shaded for several generations!"
"The key king is Shengming, the Quartet is virtuous and virtuous, and the Qin army will win!"
"That's right, the king's visit to the Hall of Heroic Souls is enough to show the importance he attaches to military affairs."
A group of people, in the midst of discussions, followed Ji Xuanling and arrived at the Hall of Heroic Souls.
Ji Xuanling sat on horseback and looked up.
The Heroic Soul Palace, divided into two floors, built according to the style of the Qin Palace, extends outward for more than a thousand steps, the gray wall and black tiles, like the undulating waves, the red lacquer door in the center is open, and the black plaque on the door is written with three gilded characters of the Heroic Soul Palace.
The momentum is majestic and the scope is vast.
Outside the palace, the elite soldiers guarded, and everyone wore linen and filial piety, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Leading the Qin army to arrive, Ji Xuanling jumped down his horse, looked serious, strode to the steps outside the hall, turned around and waved the sleeves of the python robe, and said loudly: "King Qin is strong, and it is indispensable for elite soldiers to be brave." Athletes in the army, fighting on the battlefield, casualties are inevitable.
In order to reduce the worries of the front-line soldiers and reduce the suffering of all military families, the imperial court specially built the Heroic Soul Hall to worship the heroic souls on the battlefield.
From now on, everyone in Xianyang City can come to the temple to worship. ”
As soon as the words fell, Feng Chang Lu Shiming, who was in charge of the sacrificial rites of the temple, stood up, and after reading the condolences, he said loudly: "Play music, raise the spirit!" ”
In an instant, heavy mourning music came from the hall, making the atmosphere more and more depressing.
Ji Xuanling strode to the front of the army, took the package from a Xiaowu soldier, and turned around and walked towards the Heroic Soul Palace.
Immediately, Huang Haoran, Yan Zhengfang, Xu Wenda, Yin Hong and other three princes and nine secretaries, and other officials, except for Lu Shiming, who presided over the ceremony, and the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State, all holding the packages containing ashes, all with solemn expressions and heavy steps, walked towards the Hall of Heroic Souls.
The sight of the sight moved the armed forces and forbidden troops on all sides, and the people who were watching were moved and burst into tears.
In the past, all those who died in battle, except for a few who received relics, most of them only received letters from the officials and a small pension.
Today, the king built the Hall of Heroic Souls and brought back the ashes of the soldiers who bought bones in other places for future generations to worship.
This move made the soldiers brave and enthusiastic in the battle, and no matter how bad they were, the king and the officials of the court did not forget them.
In the dreary and solemn atmosphere, infected by the sad music, all the people were shaken by the vision.
Someone was deeply moved, rushed out of the crowd, walked to the Xiaowu army, took the package containing the ashes, followed the hundred officials, and slowly walked towards the hall.
In the hall, the spiritual positions are numerous, dense, and countless.
Ji Xuanling handed the package to the sacrificial official, and the other party took out the ashes from the package and put them into the porcelain jars that had already been prepared.
In this way, even if you die on the battlefield, you can still remember it in your heart, and be worshiped and admired by future generations.
The spiritual interment ceremony lasted for nearly two hours from early in the morning, and it was past noon when all the ashes were secured.
Ji Xuanling stood on the steps outside the hall again, waved his arms and said loudly: "Today, the Wei State killed the merchants of Qin and attacked the frame of this king, and this king wants to lead the troops to destroy it, avenge the country, avenge the hatred of the family, and avenge the soldiers who died on the battlefield in the past!" ”
"Revenge!"
"Revenge!"
Hearing Ji Xuanling's voice, the generals of the three armies and the people were all enthusiastic, raising their arms and shouting, as if they wanted to fight with the Wei army to the end.
In the past, when the Qin State was prosperous, it was attacked by the Wei army, which led to the loss of the elite, and the first king died depressed.
They remember this kind of blood feud in their hearts.
Now that the Qin State is strong, they have the opportunity to take revenge, and they are willing to support the king's conquest.
Ji Xuanling nodded with satisfaction, and shouted again: "The country is in trouble, everyone, we should share the same hatred and hatred, and go to the national disaster together!" ”
"Old Qin, go to the national disaster together!"
"Old Qin, go to the national disaster together!"
As soon as this remark came out, it aroused a lot of echoes.
The chanting became louder and louder, and it seemed to arouse everyone's fighting spirit buried in their bones.
After a long period of catharsis, Ji Xuanling signaled everyone to settle down, stepped forward to burn incense, worship, and the ministers followed.
At the end of the memorial ceremony, he said aloud: "General Gongsun led the army to triumph, and the three armies should be rewarded." Today everyone is receiving their reward in the barracks. ”
"Thank you, your king, long live, long live, long live!"
When Gongsun Ang heard this, he immediately saluted.
Immediately, the officers and men of the three armies knelt down in unison and saluted.
After completing the memorial service, the three armies were rewarded in the barracks.
