Chapter 1 The Brave Contest (First Update, Asking for Votes)
Facing the Tang Dynasty that is about to be congratulated by all nations, Du He has infinite admiration in his heart. In China's thousands of years of history, only the Tang Dynasty has this glory, and I can't help but think of the scene of the 10,000 aliens who met together and bowed in front of Li Shimin after the New Year, how spectacular it was.
At the same time, I also had an idea in my heart, it is rare for so many different races to gather together, and it would be a pity not to take this opportunity to show off the strength of the Tang Dynasty, threaten these inferior countries, and let them know the majesty of my Tang Heavenly Empire.
Just thinking of the ways in which many kings in history demonstrated, I couldn't help but be discouraged.
In order to show off the demonstrations, some emperors specially ordered the poor not to go out on the streets, and the big trees on the streets were to be possessed with silk and satin, and the people sold goods at a tenfold price reduction, and even specially asked the local liquor stores and inns to exempt the envoys of other countries from the cost of meals.
This is the most hateful kind of waste of money and labor, and it has no deterrent effect at all.
Thinking aimlessly, he suddenly remembered the Olympic Games and the Asian Games in the future, the two large-scale events of the world surname, and his mind moved, and he exclaimed: "Uncle Li, the kid has an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not!" ”
"Say, say, I love to hear those new ideas in your kid's head!" Li Shimin became interested, and even ordered his subordinates to move Zhang Mazha and let Du He sit in front of him and said.
"It is precisely because of my Tang Dynasty's great power that there are all nations to congratulate today. If you don't take this opportunity to deter all ethnic groups, wouldn't you have wasted this great opportunity? ”
In the face of Du He's question, Li Shimin did not think about it, but the key is how to deter, how to deter the idea can not expose the overall strength of Datang, but also can play a good deterrent effect, the key is to let them experience the broad spirit of Datang, and the bearing of all rivers. This is especially important, "I have an idea, but I can't get started, what good proposal do you have?" ”
"Match!" Du He said two words, "Uncle Li can hold an international sports meeting!" ”
"Sports Day!" Facing the fresh words in Du He's mouth again, Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, frowned, and his eyes glared at him as if to say, "What is the sports meeting, explain it to me!" ”
"This sports meeting is a sports meeting!" Seeing that Li Shimin was faintly showing signs of an outbreak, Du He hurriedly said: "It's just like our Lantern Festival, there will be lanterns, some firecrackers, fireworks and other events, and the sports meeting is a ......conference that integrates more than a dozen competitions similar to archery, horse riding, wrestling, wrestling, martial arts and so on to show personal strength."
Du He said this, Li Shimin had already shown a look of sudden realization, and there was excitement and seriousness in his eyes.
"Here Uncle Li can invite the foreign races who come to participate in the competition, use their marksmen to compete with my Datang marksmen, and use their warriors to compete with my Datang warriors, and the victor Uncle Li can canonize him as the champion and give a reward. As far as I know, because of the harsh environment in which the alien races live, most of them admire personal bravery, value warriors, and admire warriors. As long as my Datang can win the championship in an all-round way, the aliens will naturally admire and fear my Datang heroes and warriors. ”
Li Shimin's fingers kept tapping on the table, one at a time, very regularly.
Du He knew that this was a habit of his own thinking, and he did not make a noise but waited quietly.
"Your idea is very good, but you must know that archery, horseback riding, wrestling, and wrestling are not my Datang's strong points. As soon as this sports meeting starts, our Datang may not be able to win! Li Shimin considered the right direction, but he has gone astray and walked into a dead end.
Du He can understand Li Shimin's concerns, as the most powerful country in the world, he can't lose, so he is afraid of losing, afraid of losing the face of the Tang Dynasty. As an agrarian nation, it has inherent weaknesses in archery, horseback riding, wrestling, and wrestling, so Datang may not be able to win.
Du He smiled knowingly and asked bluntly, "Uncle Li, is this afraid of losing?" ”
Li Shimin was shocked, stared at Du He in a daze, and sighed for a long time: "Only you, this kid, dare to talk to me like this." Afraid of losing? It can also be said that it is not, it can be said that it is not, what I am afraid of is not losing, but that I can't afford to lose, and I am worried that I will lose the face of my Datang. ”
"I think Uncle Li has walked into the obstacle he has set up!" Du He smiled: "Uncle didn't understand the true meaning of the Games, in fact, what if you lose?" It's just a personal victory or defeat, my Datang's strength is there, even if I lose, no country will dare to underestimate my Datang. But in this way, it has sounded a wake-up call to all the people of Datang, everyone in Datang is proud of being in Datang, what if they know that archery and equestrianism are not as good as foreign races? If it were me, I would have practiced equestrianism and archery hard to avenge the shame of failure. In this way, it also has the intention of encouraging the people to improve themselves. What's more, I am a big country in the Tang Dynasty, and I may not lose to other races in terms of bow and horse martial arts! Why doesn't Uncle Lee have more faith in the warriors of his country? ”
Li Shimin's brows stretched, as if avoiding the clouds and mist to see the blue sky, and said with a smile: "You're right! I swept the world, but now I am worried about victory or defeat for a while, I really shouldn't be! What's more, my Datang may not be defeated! ”
Li Shimin figured everything out, and Du He also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Uncle Li, this sports meeting is a kid's occasional idea, but it may not be a long-term solution. You can promote it in the army, so that the soldiers in the army can sprout the heart of victory, and you can also promote it in the world, so that my Datang can show my strengths, which can not only encourage the people's enthusiasm for bows and arrows and equestrianism, but also select strange people and strange people in the people for my Datang to use! ”
"I have the same intention!" What kind of person Li Shimin is, in terms of long-term vision, the world does not make the second choice, as early as when he understood the beauty of the games, he had already moved this thought: "Ming said that in the early dynasty, I will announce this matter to the ministers." The sports meeting, like the imperial examination, is held every three years to encourage the people to uphold the martial spirit. Ming said that I would also send envoys to inform the embassies of various countries, so that they could return to their own countries and transfer warriors from various countries to fight with our Datang Yijiao. ”
Li Shimin is full of confidence at the moment, and he has the courage to guide the country!
Du He flattered and put forward crucial suggestions according to some of the items to be noted in the Olympic Games and Asian Games in the future, and the two talked for three hours before they stopped.
Li Shimin was satisfied, and the more he looked at Du He, the happier he became, and said with a smile: "You kid is really not an idle person, you have a lot of wonderful ideas, I really didn't see the wrong person!" ”
Du He slandered in his heart, and he didn't know whether to praise himself or praise himself for being a prodigy.
"It's just that this sports meeting sounds a little unpleasant, it's better to call it a brave competition, a competition for the brave, what do you think?" Li Shimin made a suggestion.
Du He also felt that the title of the Games was not suitable for ancient times, and the brave competition was just right, and praised with a smile: "Uncle Li Shengming, the kid admires!" ”
Li Shimin also showed a slight sense of self-satisfaction.
Du He rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Uncle Li, you see that the kid has given you so many good ideas and helped you so much, should you express it!" ”
