Chapter 56: Beyond the Battlefield

Han Xiaofeng hurried to the Martial Academy, just in time, he was really annoyed that there was no accurate time in this ancient time, if he could make a watch, it would be a big sale.

Today's class is not the old master from yesterday, but a middle-aged man with an elegant demeanor, with white temples, dressed in white and suave, I don't know how many young women will be charmed.

The generals below whispered, Han Xiaofeng was also very curious, pricked up his ears and listened, only to know that this was the future of the two generals who broke through the Turks in the north, conquered Goguryeo in the east, and set Tubo in the west. This person Han Xiaofeng knows, and he has also watched the TV series, he is a character who is very admired. It's just that he hasn't been able to accomplish these achievements yet.

This class is also interesting, one in white and one in green clothes, one in the front and one in the back. Su Dingfang looked at Han Xiaofeng and said with a smile: "Han Qingyi, Han Xiaofeng, right." ”

Han Xiaofeng wondered, this is really calling me, is it because of yesterday's incident, and he is going to let me get out of the class again? But what's going on with this Han Qingyi. It doesn't matter what clothes he wears, he is calling me to do it. So he stood up respectfully and saluted, and said, "My subordinates are." ”

Su Dingfang waved his hand and motioned for Han Xiaofeng to sit down, and said, "Yesterday's remarks that Tsing Yi is A, and A is Tsing Yi are good, I like it very much." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and even Han Xiaofeng couldn't cry or laugh. Such a rebellious act can still make Su Dingfang's blue eyes add up? This world is really strange.

Su Dingfang said with a smile, "You are all the pillars of my Tang Army, and you are all good at fighting, but today we don't talk about the art of war, nor do we talk about the past battles, let's talk about things outside the battlefield." ”

Su Dingfang paused and said, "Everyone knows that I, the Tang Dynasty, swept away the barbarians in all directions and dominated the world. It must be known that over the years, I don't know how many hot-blooded men from my Tang Dynasty have died on the battlefield, so that there is today's situation of peace in the four seas. Then today, let's talk about how to make these barbarians feel at ease to be my Tang people, and not be instigated to do that senseless dispute. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were different, and they all heard the sound outside the strings. Is there any change in this Turkic, and there is no way to be subservient, is it that tens of thousands of iron hooves are ornaments when I protect the palace in the Western Regions?

Han Xiaofeng was also shocked in his heart, could it be that there are still people here who are not connected with the Turks, it is right to think about it, there is no shortage of people who eat inside and outside in any dynasty and generation. It seems that there is a problem between Hou Jingxuan and the Turks.

Su Dingfang inspected everyone and said, "Why don't you say it, or do you have nothing to say?" ”

Everyone was silent, not daring to speak, as if they were in the court.

Seeing that no one spoke, Su Dingfang smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous, this is just a lesson, although you can speak freely, you don't need to worry about the gossip in the court, Your Majesty will defend you when asked." ”

After that, Qin Yu got up and clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "General Su, the last general has some humble opinions to talk about. ”

Su Dingfang smiled and said, "General Qin, please speak." ”

Qin Yu said: "As the old saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different. This Turkic Tubo harassed our frontier and killed my people, which has been hundreds of years since the beginning of the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty, and has never stopped. The previous emperors were also only expelled and never submitted to them, which has nothing to learn from for us. But I think that since they are barbarians, they can't be seen by common sense, they worship power, and we use power to conquer. Until it hurts them, and they are afraid. Then give them kindness, so that they understand what benevolence, righteousness, morality, courtesy, righteousness and shame are. How should I be a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, and how should I be loyal to the monarch and serve the country. ”

Su Dingfang motioned for Qin Yu to sit down, and said with a smile, "General Qin said very well, and the combination of grace and power will show my Tang prestige." ”

Su Dingfang looked at the others, saw that no one expressed their opinions, and stared at Han Xiaofeng again, seeing that Han Xiaofeng had straight hair. Knowing that he couldn't hide, Han Xiaofeng had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Han Xiaofeng stood up and saluted, clasping his fists and saying, "General Su, your subordinates have different opinions. ”

Su Dingfang smiled, "Oh, then you can talk about it." ”

Han Xiaofeng said, "What General Qin said is good, but fighting is to die, although my Tang Dynasty boy is not afraid of death, but death is lighter than a feather, and it is also heavier than Mount Tai." For the sake of a mere barbarian, let me die in a foreign land, it's not worth it. ”

As soon as the words fell, someone retorted: "I think General Qin is reasonable, it is natural for Tang Erlang to sacrifice his life for the country, and it is a matter of honor to the ancestors." Why is it not worth it? Or are you afraid of death? ”

Han Xiaofeng smiled, of course you generals who want to make military merits can't wait to fight. These radical main battle factions really don't have a backache when they stand and talk, and it is the common people who die in the war. "Of course I'm afraid of death, and I'm scared to death. ”

As soon as the words ended, the others laughed unscrupulously, and the general laughed and said, "You are self-aware. ”

Su Dingfang frowned slightly, his expression was displeased, but he didn't say anything to stop it.

Han Xiaofeng ignored it, and suddenly changed his words and said impassionedly, "Our people are simple and kind, even when they see some local tyrants and inferior gentry, they are trembling and afraid to death, but it is they who can stand up when the country is in danger, and they are the ones who can stand up in the face of the enemy's iron hooves, knives and axes are added and they are the ones who would rather not bend, and they are also the ones who support the integrity of this nation, and they are the backbone of this nation." ”

After saying that, everyone was silent, and Han Xiaofeng continued, "This war is going to kill people, and in the end, it is the people on both sides who suffer. Isn't he, Turkic Tibet, a people on horseback? Then I'll make it impossible for you to ride a horse. Don't you covet the fertile soil of my Datang, I will give you the fertile soil. ”

Su Dingfang was also frightened by this bold idea, and said, "Does General Han want the Tang Dynasty to cut the land?" ”

Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "No, no, no, how can you do such a thing that loses the prestige of the Tang Dynasty." The foundation of a nation lies in the people, and since their people are suffering, we will help them. First, we helped them cultivate fertile land and build houses at the border between the Turks and Tibet, so that they could live a worry-free life. Second, open a private school to let those Turkic children learn our Tang culture for free. Third, the door was opened to make trade between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty more frequent. Fourth, attract investment and let the Turks naturalize the Tang people. ”

Another military general stood up and saluted with his fists and said, "General Han, I don't know something. My Datang takes silver and grain, and I have to build houses and reclaim fertile land for them, what good does this have to do with my Datang? ”

Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "The common people sow in spring and harvest in autumn, they are well fed and warmly dressed, and there is still some surplus food and spare money in winter, who wants to fight with such a life." Moreover, they are all people under the same grassland, and when they see others living rich and prosperous, they are not anxious? Who would want to eat the dry barley every day if they have the opportunity to eat fragrant, soft and delicious rice. After a long time, they will naturally follow suit. Let me ask the generals, are these Turks who don't ride horses still Turks? ”

As soon as everyone heard this, it suddenly became clear that when the Turks got off their horses, they had no combat strength and could only be lambs to the slaughter.

The general was also enlightened, and he was impressed by Han Xiaofeng, and he clasped his fists again and saluted, "Thank you General Han for your teaching." ”

Su Dingfang also asked: "What about the naturalization of the Tang people?" ”

Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "Didn't the Turks always want to step into my Tang Dynasty?" We don't have to fight so troublesome and bloody, I'll let you come now, as long as you give you silver, I will give you land and land, and give you the status of a Tang people. Do you think, this rich and powerful person can come alone? He must not drag his children and daughters, and there are a lot of servants. These Turkic people, who are accustomed to seeing the wind, sand and meadows, and the cold storms and snow, come to feel the magnificent rivers and mountains of the Tang Dynasty and the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River. When the Turks are gone, what are they going to fight with? Pull the yak to scare our Datang soldiers? ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone laughed and applauded, and Su Dingfang also smiled and nodded frequently. said, "Although General Qin and General Han have different opinions, they both give advice to our Tang Dynasty and provide valuable advice for solving the turbulent tumor of Turks. Then the generals have different opinions, so you might as well talk about it. ”

With Han Xiaofeng and Qin Yu's pearl and jade in front, it is naturally difficult for others to come out to offer ugliness.

Su Dingfang saw that no one said anything more, so he said, "I'm quite satisfied with today's class, let's disperse." ”

After Su Dingfang left, several young generals talked with Han Xiaofeng, and it seemed that they were all born in poor families. If it is the child of a wealthy family, he will definitely be like those in front of him, disdainful and sneering.

Several invited Han Xiaofeng to go to Chang'an to drink, but Han Xiaofeng refused, and he also wanted to rent a clean school, so as not to go back and forth, and it was convenient to practice in the back mountain.

Unbeknownst to everyone, behind the screen of the classroom sat a man dressed in fine clothes, slender and handsome, a rather dignified middle-aged man and a dean with a flowery beard and snow-white eyebrows. If anyone sees it, they will exclaim Your Majesty.
