"It's Wu Du's command!"

"It's Wu Du's command!"

"Commander Wu Du is here!"

"Wu Du commands! Grandpa Wu! ”

Just when Wu Ji was distracted, he heard a burst of cheers, and saw a group of people with happy faces, rushing to come up and surround him. The people looked at Wu Ji as if they were looking at their ancestors, their mouths were open, and they were full of joy with the scenery on their faces.

For the people of Youzhou, they know that it is not easy for Youzhou to recover, and the key person who caused the recovery of Youzhou is Wu Ji, can they not be grateful to Wu Ji?

Since Shi Jingjiao betrayed the country, the sixteen states of Yanyun were ceded to the Khitans. Since then, the people of Yanyun have wanted to return to the embrace of Huaxia, but due to various reasons, they have not succeeded. Now, more than 100 years have passed. In the past hundred years, the people of Yanyun have lived in dire straits, moaning under the iron hooves of foreign races, and suffering humiliation, they know the hatred of foreign races, and they always want to return to the embrace of China.

Zhou Shizong and Song Taizong's Northern Expedition failed successively and lost their hope. Where to think, the arrival of Wu Ji made the Song Dynasty suddenly emerge, and finally recovered Youzhou, and they returned to the embrace of China.

When it comes to Wu Ji, the people of Youzhou are a Grandpa Wu, and they are extremely respectful. Right now, they saw Wu Ji with their own eyes, that is to see a great benefactor, who can not be happy?

"It's worth it! It's worth it! Wu Ji looked at his simple and sincere faces, and was greatly moved, and tears welled up in his eyes: "I have been a human being for two lives, and this life is the most worthwhile!" What could be more valuable than having such sincere gratitude from the people? ”

To be so sincerely grateful to the people is a priceless treasure.

"See Grandpa Wu!"

The people knelt down in unison and kowtowed to Wu Ji, with great force and a bang.

For the people, Wu Ji is their great benefactor, don't say kowtow, even the plastic gold body should be offered, they kowtow hard, while wiping their tears, crying excitedly.

Wu Ji felt that his nose was sour, jumped off the horse, clenched his fists, and said, "Fathers and fellow villagers, please get up quickly!" Hurry up, please! ”

"Commander Wu Du, you have given us a new life, we will build a temple for you and make a golden body!"

"Grandpa Wu's grace, we will never forget!"

A crowd of people surrounded Wu Ji, overjoyed, and said words of gratitude.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, thank you for your kindness, I'm ashamed!" Wu Ji was very moved, and politely refused: "As a Chinese man, what I do is just what I should do, and I dare not thank you." Don't mention the matter of building temples and shaping gold bodies, otherwise, I don't want to go. You have just returned to the embrace of China, you have been bullied by foreign races for more than 100 years, you have suffered a lot, and the family is not happy, instead of building a temple for me and shaping a golden body, it is better to do a good job at home and live a good life. Fathers and fellow villagers, as long as you live a good life, I will be happy! ”

Building a temple, shaping a golden body, and paying homage to the people is not superstition, but a way to commemorate the people, which shows that Wu Ji is very worthy of this life, and so many people admire him.

However, Wu Ji knew deeply that in order to recover the land of Yanyun, countless hot-blooded people worked hard for it, threw their heads for it, spilled their blood, and went forward one after another. He's just one of them. He was lucky, he succeeded!

Only those who have experienced this history know that as long as they are Chinese men, in this situation, they will do so, and they will devote themselves to the great cause of recovering Yanyun!

"Grandpa Wu is such a good person! He thinks about everything for us! ”

"Grandpa Wu, our gratitude to you is sincere, we must build a temple for you and shape your golden body!"

Wu Ji's actions moved the people even more, and the intention of building temples and shaping the golden body became firmer.

Wu Ji really didn't like this kind of thing, it was too hard for the people and money, he raised his eyebrows, and said, "Fathers and fellow villagers, please listen to me." I understand your kindness, this matter of building a temple and shaping a golden body is absolutely not feasible! Fathers and fellow villagers, as long as you can live a good life and have a happy family, this is the best gratitude to me! ”

Speaking of this, in an extremely firm tone, he said: "Fathers and fellow villagers, have you ever thought about it? For more than 100 years, how many Chinese people with lofty ideals have been running for the recovery of the land of Yanyun, throwing their heads and spilling their blood? I'm just like them, and we're doing it so that you can live well! If you don't have a good life, our blood will be in vain! ”

Speaking of the people who are running for the recovery, I don't know how many, the people can call many names. After listening to Wu Ji's words, he couldn't help but burst into tears and was excited: "Follow Grandpa Wu's order!" ”

At this point, Wu Ji finally dispelled their thoughts and breathed a sigh of relief. If this wind opens, it is conceivable that the people of Yanyun will definitely build a temple for Wu Ji in the land of Yanyun, not a few, but dozens or hundreds, or even hundreds. How much money does it cost to build so many temples? How much manpower and material resources do you have to spend?

The people of Yanyun have been squeezing the Khitans for more than a hundred years, and they have a very hard time, and this large cost is a huge burden for them. Instead of spending on such useless things, it is better to let them live well.

"Grandpa Wu, we don't build a temple for you and make a golden body, but can you go to my house and sit? Just drink a glass of water! An old man with gray hair looked at Wu Ji with a look of hope.

The people are so simple that they can't build temples, shape gold bodies, and talk about their hearts with a glass of water and wine. Wu Ji secretly sighed at the simplicity of the people, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, I still have military affairs with me, and time is tight." Let me return from the battle, and I will definitely appreciate it! ”

It is necessary to go to the people's homes and observe the people's feelings. However, Wu Ji was in military affairs at the moment, and he couldn't put it off, so he had to immediately lead the army to Western Xia, but he had to refuse politely.

"Grandpa Wu has military affairs in his body, so I won't bother Grandpa Wu. Grandpa Wu, I wish you success! As soon as the old man heard this, he knew that the military affairs were urgent, and he didn't dare to make the slightest mistake, so he hurriedly stepped aside, waved his hand, and said, "Make way for Grandpa Wu!" Make way for Grandpa Wu! Hurry up and make way for Grandpa Wu! ”

Even if he didn't say it, the people knew what to do, and they all made way for Wu Ji. The news of Wu Ji's appearance spread as fast as the trend, and many people from Youzhou arrived, and at this moment, there were no less than 10,000 people.

They stood on both sides, with a look of love and admiration, and their bodies trembled with excitement.

"Thank you! Thanks a lot! Wu Ji was moved, flew on the horse, kept clasping his fists in salute, and led the generals to leave in a hurry.

"Congratulations to Grandpa Wu!" The sound of the people's farewell came, implicitly sobbing, and the people shed tears.

Listening to the tears of the people, Zhou Wei and them, hot-blooded men, iron-clad men who were not afraid of life and death, couldn't help but shed tears, wiped their eyes, and sighed: "Today, we know how worthwhile what our generation has done!" Let the people of Yanyun see the sky again, it is really a blessing for my generation! ”

This scene is so touching, Zhou Wei and the others, who are used to seeing life and death, and don't know what tears are, can't help but shed tears.

"They are just the first batch to return, and in the future, there will be more displaced people to return!" Wu Ji looked farther and said: "At the time of the Tang Dynasty, the footprints of the sons and daughters of China are all over the world!" After the fall of the previous dynasty, they fell into the hands of foreign races, were bullied, and are still in exile! After Yanyun recovered, the next thing should be Liaodong, the desert, the Western Regions, the land of Hexi, Vietnam, and Nanzhao! ”

The Tang Dynasty was a glorious dynasty in Chinese history, famous for its brilliant culture and martial arts. At that time, the footprints of the people of the Tang Dynasty were all over the world, Liaodong, the desert, Hexi, the Western Regions, Vietnam, Nanzhao, and even the Middle East also had their footprints, what a prosperous era!

When the Arab Empire rose, it was the time when China was in the Tang Dynasty, the Arab Empire marched eastward, wanting to fight to the East, encountered the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, and fought with the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions for decades, and has been pressing and beating the Tang Dynasty.

In order to fight with the Tang Dynasty, the Arab Empire invested a lot of military, manpower and material resources to compete with the Tang Dynasty for decades. During this period, the Arab Empire united with Tibet, and the Tibetan Empire attacked the Hexi Corridor to contain the Tang Dynasty's power in the Western Regions, while the Arab Empire fought the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions.

At that time, Tibet's territory was extremely extensive, not only in the present-day Qinghai and Tibetan provinces, but also in Afghanistan and part of Pakistan, and it was a large country with a territory of thousands of miles.

It was these two empires that joined forces to compete with the Tang Dynasty for the Western Regions, but they could not defeat the Tang Dynasty. Although Tubo once conquered the four towns of Anxi, it was recaptured by Wu Zetian.

The definition of the term Western Regions is very different in the past dynasties of China. At the time of the Han Dynasty, the Western Regions were mainly the current Xinjiang Province, and at that time, the Han Dynasty was first connected to the Western Regions, and its control over the Western Regions was not strong.

In the Tang Dynasty, the term Western Regions not only referred to Xinjiang Province, but also included the current Middle East. During the reign of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty extended the term Western Regions infinitely, as long as the Tang army went, it was the Western Regions. And where the Tang army wants to reach is the Middle East and the Arab Empire.

For this reason, the Tang army marched westward and fought many fierce battles with the Arab Empire, until it gained the upper hand and pressed the Arab Empire. It was not until the First Battle of Talas that Gao Xianzhi was defeated that the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Arab Empire took a turn.

Although Gao Xianzhi was defeated by Talas, with the amazing recovery ability of the Tang Dynasty, he quickly regained his strength in the Western Regions and prepared to make a comeback and compete with the Allah Empire again. However, a major event occurred that affected the course of Chinese history, which was the "Anshi Rebellion", and the Tang Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline.

In order to quell the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty borrowed 3,000 troops from the Allah Empire. The 3,000 armies of the Arab Empire played a major role in quelling the Anshi Rebellion. Moreover, they have seen the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, far from being comparable to the Arab Empire, after quelling the Anshi Rebellion, they did not want to go back, so they settled down in the Tang Dynasty, and finally formed a nation, which is the origin of the "Hui people".

The Tang Dynasty went from prosperity to decline and was unable to advance westward, so the Arab Empire Islamized the conquered Middle East. If the Tang Dynasty had not declined, the Arab Empire, although it had conquered a large amount of land, would not have been able to transform it.

Wu Ji's words stated the situation at that time. At that time, because the Song Dynasty was weak and unable to restore the great cause of the Tang Dynasty, there were many Han people in exile, and the people of Yanyun were just the first batch to return.
