Chapter 17: Supreme Glory
Chang'an, outside the Xuanwu Gate, is crowded with people.
Countless people surrounded the Xuanwu Gate, stretched their necks one by one, and everyone looked at each other with anticipation, which meant to say, "When is the time?" ”
When they got the news that the Tang army had invaded the hinterland of Tibet through Jishi Mountain, the people were looking forward to victory, and a few people rushed to the Xuanwu Gate to inquire about the news. Not to mention, it's a celebration after a big victory, and who wouldn't want to witness this great moment with their own eyes?
For this reason, the people came early and surrounded the Xuanwu Gate tightly.
"Rumble!"
At this moment, only a sound like thunder sounded, and the Longwu army, dressed in bright light armor, carrying a hard bow and arrows, hanging a horizontal sword at the waist, and riding a horse, drove out one after another.
The leader was an old general with a white beard, tall, unusually powerful, and unusually bright eyes, it was Chen Xuanli, the general of Longwu.
Chen Xuanli has been in charge of the Long Wu Army for decades, and has experienced many major celebrations, but he rarely presides over in person. Really, today's celebration is too important. Pacifying Tibet has been the wish of China for thousands of years, and now it has finally succeeded, how can Chen Xuanli not personally preside over such a major celebration?
Moreover, to pacify the battle of Tubo, the Longwu army made great efforts. It can be said that without the Longwu Army, the Tang Army would not have been able to pass through Jishi Mountain. If you can't pass through Jishi Mountain, you won't be able to attack the hinterland of Tibet, and you won't be able to achieve the final victory.
Chen Xuanli was very happy and decided to personally preside over this matter and give a big gift to the Long Wu Army who participated in the battle.
As a member of the Longwu Army, General Longwu personally presided over it, which was a supreme thing for the Longwu Army.
Under the command of Chen Xuanli, the Long Wu army drove the people out of the way.
For this matter, the people must support it, and there is no need for Long Wujun to do it, as long as Long Wujun arrives, they will automatically let it out. After a while, the originally impassable Xuanwu Gate was soon cleared.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" Colliers' shrill voice rang out.
I saw Li Longji wearing an imperial robe, a crown on his head, and a happy face, surrounded by the ministers, and came quickly.
Today's Li Longji seemed to have eaten an elixir, and his whole person was full of joy, as if he was the source of joy.
Li Longji served as the emperor for decades, and governed the Tang Dynasty like a dream. However, there were few things about him personally participating in the celebration in Xuanwu Gate, and he couldn't be excited.
When he came to the Xuanwu Gate, Li Longji stood still, his eyes widened, he tiptoed, looked ahead, and asked, "Have you arrived?" ”
"Your Majesty, not yet." Colliers hurriedly replied.
"Nope." Li Longji was disappointed in his words and asked, "Where have you been?" ”
"Your Majesty, the crown prince has already joined Li Changguo and them, and is rushing towards Chang'an, and it should be about to arrive." Colliers said busily.
"It's a convergence. This prince is too dragging his feet, why didn't he come back sooner? Li Longji's face sank, and he was a little displeased.
Gao Lishi was stunned for a moment, he didn't know how to speak, thought about it, reorganized the language, and said: "Your Majesty, the crown prince's actions are very fast, and it hasn't been much time." ”
"Still fast?" Li Longji was very displeased, and said, "I have been waiting for a long time, why hasn't he been able to yet?" ”
Li Longji just arrived, okay? Li Longji arrived at Xuanwu Gate without a few words, how did it take half a day?
Gao Lishi looked at Li Longji's eagerness and anticipation, and obediently shut up.
Don't say that Li Longji is eager, even ministers like Li Linfu, who is not anxious? They were all looking forward to it like Li Longji, their eyes were round, and they couldn't wait to see Li Changguo and them immediately.
To be able to witness such a celebration with your own eyes, it is a great honor that has accumulated virtue in eight lifetimes, and who can not be anxious?
"Rumble!"
Suddenly, a muffled thunderous sound was heard from the north.
"It's coming!" Li Longji raised his eyebrows, rolled his eyes, and looked at the north.
The ministers are all the same.
Especially Chen Xuanli had to tremble and keep rubbing his hands. Long Wujun is his heart, he is his beloved child, Long Wujun returns victorious, can he not be anxious?
If the timing wasn't right, he would have rushed forward on his horse.
I saw a wave in the north, like a sea tide surging towards the Longwu army, countless flags fluttering in the wind, hunting sounds, and the word "Tang" in the book was clear at a glance.
The Xuanwu Gate boiled all of a sudden, and the passion of Li Longji's ministers and the people of Chang'an was ignited all of a sudden, and they all shouted.
"It's coming! Here it comes! ”
"The heroes of Datang are back! The heroes of Datang are back! ”
"Haha, I can finally see the heroes of Datang with my own eyes! See the heroes of Datang with your own eyes! ”
The cheers of the people rang out.
As soon as Li Longji raised his foot, he greeted him.
Gao Lishi hurriedly stopped: "Your Majesty, this is not in accordance with etiquette. ”
Li Longji pushed his right hand hard, pushed Gao Lishi away, and shouted: "Etiquette, bullshit etiquette!" ”
The dignified emperor actually burst into foul language, which is tantamount to a fantasy, however, those who heard it were overjoyed and paid more respect to Li Longji. In the face of such a great happy event, it is too unpleasant to stick to etiquette.
Li Longji burst into foul language, how good this is, it is tantamount to a dose of stimulant.
Gao Lishi thought that he had misheard, and was stunned for a moment, before believing that he had not heard it wrong. Li Longji strode forward, and he was already far away, and he hurriedly followed.
I could see it clearly, and I saw a team of Tang troops coming, all of them tall, people like dragons, horses like tigers, and momentum like rainbows.
What's even more surprising is that this Tang Army is not only mighty and extraordinary, but also because all of them have a murderous aura, and some of them have a murderous aura like substance, which is shocking.
You don't need any intelligence, you can see that this team of Tang soldiers crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, and they have killed a lot of people, otherwise, there would not be such a strong murderous aura.
The army that crawled out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood is the real army and the real hero.
"Heroes of the Tang Dynasty!"
The cheers of the people resounded through the heavens and the earth, and everyone waved their arms and roared loudly.
Li Longji's eyes shone brightly, and he saw Li Changguo, Guo Ziyi, and Li Guangbi galloping together with the crown prince Li Heng.
When he came to the front, Li Changguo waved his hand, and the marching Tang Jun stopped at once, and his movements were neat and uniform, as if he were a person, which reflected good training.
Needless to say, only the elite of the elite can have such neat movements, which provoked the people to be surprised and admired.
"Li Changguo, Guo Wudi, Li Guangbi......" Li Longji opened his legs and trotted up to meet him, shouting as he ran: "My hero! ”
Li Changguo was very surprised, he never thought that Li Longji, the emperor, was so eager that he was about to fly off the horse, but Li Longji stopped him: "Don't get off the horse." ”
"This ......" Li Changguo was surprised.
"I'll help you get off your horse." Li Changguo's surprise was not over, and he only heard Li Longji yell.
Li Longji personally helped Li Changguo and them get off the horse, what an honor this was, Li Changguo was even more surprised: "Your Majesty, this is not good, absolutely not." ”
"What's good or bad? That's it. Whoever dares not to listen is to resist the decree. Li Longji's face was blank and he sighed.
This is just a trivial matter, how can it become a protest again? Li Longji suddenly raised this trivial matter to the level of principle.
Li Longji ran over, came to Li Changguo, looked at Li Changguo, and said with a smile: "Li Changguo, good fight, really good fight!" Tibet has been destroyed by you. ”
"This is all Your Majesty's wisdom." Li Changguo sighed with emotion: "If it weren't for His Majesty's strong support, there would not have been this great victory." ”
Although the pacification of Tibet was out of his plan, it was not a high success, and it can be said to be a gamble. If it were a different person, he would definitely not agree, but Li Longji agreed, or let Li Changguo do it, Li Longji really deserves the praise of the word "wise".
Li Longji loved to listen to this, squinted his eyes very much, bowed his head slightly, helped Li Changguo to get off the horse, looked at Li Changguo, patted Li Changguo on the shoulder with a smile, and exclaimed: "A little thinner, more resolute, well, good." ”
War is the best way to temper people, and in the battle of pacifying Tibet, Li Changguo learned a lot and grasped the battlefield more easily.
The ministers watched the two talking, and they all looked envious.
Li Longji is the supreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he personally helped Li Changguo to get off the horse, this is the supreme glory, looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, how many people have such an honor?
Think about the soup that Li Bai was rewarded by Li Longji and personally adjusted, which is a beautiful talk that is known to the world, but it cannot be compared with Li Longji personally helping Li Changguo get off the horse.
The most depressed is Yang Guozhong, who hates Li Changguo to death. If it weren't for Li Changguo, he went to Tibet, made great contributions, and returned triumphantly, Li Longji could also treat him like this, that would be a great honor, and his soaring prosperity would no longer be a problem.
Li Linfu saw it in his eyes, his eyes flashed, and he was also envious. After thinking about it, Li Changguo had no conflict with him. Li Changguo is only twenty-two or three years old, no matter how powerful he is, he will not threaten his position as prime minister. Even if Li Changguo can become prime minister, it will be twenty years later, and by then, he Li Linfu will be no longer in the personnel.
The happiest is Chen Xuanli. Li Changguo is his favorite general, Li Changguo is so respected, that is his glory, Chen Xuanli stroked his white beard, and smiled so that his eyes narrowed together.
Li Longji patted Li Changguo on the shoulder, turned around, walked quickly in front of Guo Ziyi, and said with a smile: "Guo Wudi, you look more capable." It seems that this trip to Tibet has gained a lot. ”
Although Guo Ziyi's outstanding military talent has not yet been discovered by Li Longji, his bravery is well-known in Beijing, and Li Longji loves him very much, and the more he looks at it, the more happy he becomes.
"This is all under the favor of His Majesty, and the ministers can participate in this battle." Guo Ziyi was busy with the ceremony.
"Huh!" Li Longji smiled very happily, he liked to hear this, and helped Guo Ziyi to get off the horse.
patting Guo Ziyi on the shoulder, Li Longji came to Li Guangbi's side, looked at it, couldn't help nodding, and said with a smile: "I have long heard that there is a tiger general named Li Guangbi in the Northwest Army, who is brave, good at fighting, and resourceful. ”
This is a supreme compliment, although Li Guangbi is not an impetuous person, when he heard this, he was also fluttering, and he was about to fly, and he raised his throat and said: "It is an honor for Your Majesty to be remembered, and the minister Li Guangbi is honored." ”
The emperor is to be able to control people's life and death, and to give people glory. Li Longji's words made Li Guangbi feel very honored, this is exactly where the emperor's good feeling lies, Li Longji was very happy, and helped Li Guangbi to get off the horse with a smile.
