Chapter 593: A Good Song Man

Yuan Zai Xianggong once borrowed the chopstick, and Emperor Xianzong also paid attention. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing that the clothes were in the east market, the bow and sword were not patrolling west.

Although the shepherd drives the horse, the white-haired Dan is full of Hanchen.

Only Liangzhou song and dance music, spread all over the world.

β€”β€”This is the poem "River Huang" by the Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu.

The so-called land of the river is the Yellow River and the Huangshui basin in Qinghai and Gansu, where the water and grass are abundant and beautiful, and the good horses are abundant, and the location of the land is very important.

Only by guarding the Hehuang can we protect the Hexi Corridor, protect the Hexi Corridor, communicate with the Western Regions, and maintain the security of the Silk Road.

To put it bluntly, the land of the river is related to the safety of the northwest half of the country.

It's a pity that the Anshi Rebellion broke out, and the Tang Dynasty transferred the people and horses stationed in the Hehuang and Hexi corridors to deal with the Anshi Rebellion with all their might, and the result was that Tubo took advantage of the chaos to seize Hehuang.

Du Mu mentioned in the poem that Prime Minister Yuan Zai and Tang Xianzong both thought about recovering Hehuang, but they did not succeed. The later Tang Dynasty was unable to look west at all, only Liangzhou songs and dances were still circulating in Chang'an.

In the following hundreds of years, the hometown of Hehuang fell into the hands of the Tibetan tribes.

It has been extended until now, a God-given opportunity has appeared, a generation of heroes have died, all parts of Tibet have collapsed, and his son Dong Yu is unable to maintain the unity of the Qingtang Dynasty, it is the perfect time for my Great Song Dynasty to march into the northwest and recover Longyou!

……

As a special lecturer of the Royal Academy, Wang Ningan once again stepped onto the podium and told all the students about the importance of Qingtang.

After Ouyang Xiu's efforts, the Royal Academy has a considerable scale, starting from the Royal Primary School, then the Royal Middle School, above the Royal Middle School, there are the Royal Martial Arts Academy, the Royal Mathematics Academy, the Royal Astronomical Academy, the Royal Water Conservancy Academy, and the Royal Baigong Academy.

This time, Wang Ning'an's lecture was held at the Royal Primary School, and the interesting thing was that it was not only primary school students who came to listen to the class, but also everyone from other colleges, especially the martial arts academy, and many students who were aspiring to enter the academy also came.

The youngest of the students, such as Gouyaer and the little prince, are only six or seven years old, but the eldest is thirty or forty years old, and they are already fathers.

Wang Ningan feels that national defense should be taught from an early age, and only when children understand it will adults really pay attention to it.

"The capital of our Great Song Dynasty is in Luoyang, to protect the safety of Luoyang, we must build a defense system, this is the lifeline, to make Luoyang develop and grow, we must open up all trade routes, this is the development line."

"The lifeline of Luoyang, to the north, should be pushed to the Hetao area, that is, the dividing line between traditional farming and nomadism, and also the line of the Great Wall of the Qin Dynasty, to the southwest, it must occupy the Huangshui Valley, which is the best horse farm in the entire plateau, the water and grass are abundant, suitable for the garrison, and with the Huangshui Valley, the cavalry of Tubo cannot threaten the security of the northwest. You must know that in the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo cavalry once entered Chang'an, burned, killed and looted, and did all kinds of evil. ”

"Luoyang's development line, to the east and south, is all within the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, so there is no need to say more. What really matters is to the west. A Silk Road brought prosperity to the Han and Tang dynasties, and opened up the trade routes of the Western Regions, so that we could get the best war horses, and exchange our silk for gold, silver, spices and jewels of comparable weight. Everyone, please look here, this is the Broken Leaf City in the Western Regions, where the poet Li Bai was born. ”

Wang Ningan pointed to a point on the map.

The students craned their necks and stared wide-eyed, many scholars who had studied hard for more than ten years knew the location of Broken Leaf City for the first time, which immediately aroused curiosity.

Everyone has been reciting the good verses of Shixian since childhood, but they don't know where Shixian was born...... It's really far away, it should be thousands of miles, tens of thousands of miles, almost separated by a Great Song Dynasty...... The mountains and rivers are far away, and such a vast land back then was all the territory of the Tang Dynasty?

Looking back, the Great Song Dynasty is like a slap-like land.

Many people involuntarily lowered their heads.

No wonder Datang calls it Datang!

In contrast, Da Song is really empty-hearted!

"After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty lost control of the Western Regions, but the Han family here did not give up their longing for their homeland, they wore Han clothes, spoke Chinese, followed the Han style, and worked hard to guard the territory. Among them, the Li clan of Khotan is the most heroic! They claimed to be the sect of the Tang Dynasty, and after the succession of Li Shengtian, the king of Khotan, they actively sent envoys to rebuild ties with the Central Plains. Emperor Taizu once sent 157 monks to Khotan to comfort these struggling Han remnants, and the two sides had close ties and hearts. ”

In Khotan, many people are very unfamiliar.

Speaking of which, all around the Great Song Dynasty are evil neighbors, whether it is the Liao State, the Western Xia, or even the Qing Tang Dynasty, they all covet the wealth of the Great Song Dynasty and try to get their hands on the Central Plains.

The sudden emergence of a loyal Han dynasty made the students feel very excited.

The little prince Zhao Zongyuan was even more bold to ask: "Sir, how is the country of Khotan?" Have they sent any envoys, why hasn't anyone talked about it, did they betray the Great Song Dynasty? ”

"No, they're gone!"

It is rare, Wang Ningan's voice choked, "At the beginning of the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, it was the day when the Great Food Kingdom marched eastward, their cavalry continued to pour into the Western Regions, and the Khotanese State had only 20,000 soldiers, but they had to face hundreds of thousands of enemy troops...... However, the Khotanese army is weak, the support is not good, after decades of hard fighting, the Khotanese country is completely destroyed, hundreds of thousands of Han family children blood sprinkled yellow sand, died on the battlefield, in the hometown of Khotan, has become the Black Khan Dynasty, the Han people are extinct, the Buddhist temples are everywhere, the grand occasion of the Buddha is also gone, they are as if they have never been here, they have been completely wiped out, not left at all! ”

Hearing the tragic end of Khotan, many students couldn't help but shed tears and sadness, and the atmosphere in the classroom was very solemn.

"The efforts and sacrifices of Khotan were not worthless, they relied on tens of thousands of weak brigades, and they survived for nearly a hundred years, blocking wave after wave of offensives. At that time, the Central Plains was five dynasties and ten kingdoms, and it was in chaos. If it weren't for the efforts of Khotan, the Great Food Cavalry would have fought all the way into the Central Plains along the Hexi Corridor, and the result would have been unimaginable. You must know that the commander of the Great Cannibal who attacked Khotan at that time was appointed as the governor of China...... They already have the ambition to get involved in the Central Plains! With less than one-sixth of the troops, Khotanese lured the enemy deeper, set up an ambush, killed the Chinese governor in a battle, and killed the four religious elders under him, killing the cannibals and fleeing, cutting off the idea of marching into the Central Plains. If it weren't for the efforts of Khotan, perhaps today's northwest would already be a world of cannibalism. ”

Wang Ning'an's tone was very heavy, and he concluded: "Our Han family son, since the three emperors and five emperors, has expanded the territory and overcome obstacles, there has never been a shortage of warriors, and there is no shortage of good men!" We defeated the Dog Rong, defeated the Xiongnu, and defeated the Turks...... For thousands of years, we have defeated almost all enemies...... I never gave up the struggle because of the hardships. The Han people have never been weak, and if we were weak, we might have been like other Yidi, and the country would have been wiped out. ”

"Even if they are in a desperate situation, even if the strong enemy looks around, Khotan has not given up the battle, they have not been wiped out, they have just consumed it, they have used their own blood to build a great wall to defend the Han family's Taoism, endlessly!"

"We want to use troops against Qingtang, we want to open the road to the Western Regions, we want to restore the rule of the Han and Tang Dynasties in the Western Regions, and we want to get back the land that belongs to us! I want to go to the homeland of Khotan, and I want to pay tribute to those good men who have been on the bloody battlefield! ”

"The roll call outside the Donghua Gate is a good man!"

Wang Ning'an whispered twice, and then chuckled: "The person who said this said said to me not long ago, he said to me that he would avenge the revenge of Shuichuan, destroy Western Xia, and restore the old place of Hetao!" Wait until the moment when Wang Shi succeeds and tell his ghost so that he can rest in Jiuquan...... I think he's figured out what a good man is! ”

"Fight for the country, open up the territory, hold a three-foot steel front, protect hundreds of millions of people, men and heroes, even if they die, their fighting spirit is endless, and their blood is not extinguished! Fang is a good man! ”

……

Wang Ningan talked a lot, from recovering the land of Hehuang, to passing through the Qingtang Dynasty, and then to restoring the homeland of the Han family...... The students listened very carefully, and even a bunch of little dolls stared at each other and carefully took note of the gentleman's words.

A Donghuamen roll call has inspired countless scholars, but it has chilled the hearts of countless martial artists.

Now the person who is in the Donghua Gate roll call is in a different place, and it is finally time to change his course.

Taking Wang Ning'an's class as a starting point, the Royal Academy, the bookstores in the capital, and the major newspapers spared no effort to publish the history of the Khotanese Kingdom, and the Ministry of Rites also found the national letter handed over by Li Shengtian to the Great Song Dynasty and the jade treasures sent.

People repeatedly read the national letters of decades ago, and they could feel the loyalty of Khotan to the Great Song Dynasty, but also the despair they felt in the face of a strong enemy.

But they did not give up, and Khotan fought to the last soldier......

At that time, the Great Song Dynasty had just established the country, and the two Northern Expeditions had failed miserably, and they were unable to take care of the distant Western Regions, so Taizu and Taizong could only send envoys to encourage them and boost their morale.

Today's Great Song Dynasty is different, we want to change the law to become stronger, and we want to get back the homeland that belongs to the Han family!

The sixteen states of Yanyun, the Hetao Plain, and now there is a hometown of the Western Regions, the homeland of Khotan......

The blood of the people was ignited, more and more young people picked up swords, guns, bows and arrows, learned martial arts, and in the fields, a large number of bow and arrow societies appeared, and the former thieves and soldiers became fragrant and sweet in everyone's eyes...... Young people like to pester veterans who have returned to the field, ask about the battlefield, learn the martial arts of bows and horses, and are eager to go into battle to kill the enemy and be rewarded for their meritorious service.

The entire social atmosphere is rapidly reversing and changing, from a good man who is not a soldier, a good iron who does not shoot nails, to a white horse adorned with gold bonds, and galloping northwest. By asking whose son it is, the ghost and the ranger,

Overnight, it was as if the world was different.

Wang Ninghong, Wang Ningxuan, Wang Ningze, they led 8,000 iron cavalry, galloped all the way from Youzhou, rushed to Xijing, and waited for the dispatch.

Everywhere they passed, the gentry and people from all over the country ate pot pulp and rewarded the soldiers.

They were flattered and overwhelmed.

Especially when entering Xijing, the wide road is lined with incense tables, on which flowers and delicacies are placed. On both sides of the street, drums shook the sky and firecrackers rang out.

When the soldiers strode into the city gate, they didn't know who took the lead and shouted, "Great Song good boy!" ”

"Da Song is a good man!"

"Good boy!!"

…… The cheers like a landslide and a crack, at that moment, Wang Jiajun was in tears.
