Chapter Seventy-Three: The Heroic Martyr Enters the Tower
The edicts of the six edicts to the world are all related to the livelihood of the people in Guanzhong and even the world!
And more importantly!
Let me ask, in the counties of Guanzhong, how many families have not sent blood to the decades of Great Qin's campaign?!
Let's ask, in the counties of Guanzhong, how many families have not sent their husbands to the battlefield and then sent their sons to fight again? !
Let's ask, in the counties of Guanzhong, how many families do not have sons, husbands, or fathers who died on the battlefield and were shrouded in horse leather? !
Let's ask, in the counties of Guanzhong, how many families are still strong and intact and have sound limbs? !
Let's ask, in the counties of Guanzhong, how many families are not only old and weak, women and children? !
The counties of Guanzhong are the foundation of Daqin, and the old Qin people in Guanzhong have paid for Daqin's conquest of the world, and the monarchs of Daqin are not clear, even if any courtiers and government officials of Daqin today can't be calculated clearly!
For many years, the old Qin people, going north, east, south, fighting the border, quelling the chaos, guarding the town, moving to the south and moving to the east, the old Qin people without complaints and regrets have paid without regrets and waited silently!
Waiting for his monarch to be able to remember himself!
Da Qin, who was waiting for him, could think of himself!
That's hundreds or thousands of years!
But!
Today!
It's the day!
The first day of June in the first year of Great Qin II!
His Majesty the Emperor has not forgotten them!
Daqin didn't forget them!
Their awakened Emperor His Majesty thought of them!
The old Qin country, which dominates the world but is now struggling, has thought of them!
The pension system established by Hu Hai has been extended for a full 30 years! It's almost two generations! Not only are the dead soldiers in the battle of Great Qin's unification included in the pension, but even the dead and disabled soldiers before the Great Qin unified the world by themselves are all counted into the pension objects!
Although compensation and bereavement are a bit late for the old Qin people who have been waiting for nearly forty years! But he's here after all! The most important thing is that the old Qin people who are willing to give everything know that the emperor and Great Qin have not forgotten them!
The old Qin people, this ethnic group that supports the backbone of Great Qin, are selfless, lovely, amiable, respectable, and more content!
The old Qin people on the Xianyang Palace Square were laughing, crying, and shouting!
The sound that made the moon lose color turned into another voice at some point!
"Long live Great Qin!"
Over and over again!
Hu Hai took a few steps forward, stood on the terrace in front of the main hall of Xianyang Palace, which was dozens of feet above the ground, and stretched out his arms in intoxication in the monstrous sound!
As if he wanted to hold this heaven and earth in his arms, as if he wanted to pick the moon into his bag, as if he wanted to embrace the endless rivers and mountains of Daqin, and as if he wanted to gather this monstrous sound and wave into his heart!
"I have them, what else do I have to fear? Even if this day is to destroy my Great Qin, I can also destroy the sky! ”
Hu Hai's clear voice clearly came into the ears of Li Si, Wei Yi and others who were standing quietly behind him in this monstrous sound!
Hearing the emperor's arrogant but arrogant words, Li Si, Feng Quji, Yao Jia and others all trembled, although the emperor turned his back to them at this moment, but the momentum of being the only one and the king of the world was not much better than that of the first emperor, and even exceeded!
Li Si and the others couldn't help but bow down deeply and bury their heads!
Wei Yi, Zhang Han and others were also shocked when they heard Hu Hai's words, and bowed down like Li Si and others, but their mood was different from that of Li Si and others! Such an emperor is the Emperor of Great Qin!
The people around the Xianyang Palace Square noticed His Majesty's actions and gradually calmed down!
His Majesty the Second Emperor of Great Qin, Hu Hai, first walked down the steps of the emperor's imperial road in the middle of the main hall, and the other two columns of cultural relics and ministers followed from the steps on both sides of the imperial road.
The entire Xianyang Palace Square was quiet, and there was only the "rustle" sound of Hu Hai and hundreds of Great Qin courtiers walking on the jade-paved steps!
When he was more than ten steps away from the heroic tower covered by a black curtain, Hu Hai stopped and stood. Respectfully bowed to the Heroic Pagoda, and all the ministers behind him bowed at the same time.
After the salute, Hu Hai stepped in front of the Heroic Pagoda, held the black curtain covering the Heroic Pagoda with both hands, and shouted: "Great Qin soldiers, the soul is back!" ”
"Great Qin soldiers, the soul is back!" The ministers shouted in unison!
"Great Qin soldiers, the soul is back!" Tens of thousands of Great Qin soldiers followed the ministers and burst into cheers!
"Great Qin soldiers, the soul is back!" Hundreds of thousands of people in Xianyang Palace Square shouted in unison!
With these three waves of shouting, Hu Hai grabbed the black curtain with both hands and pulled it with all his might, covering the huge black curtain of the more than ten zhang high heroic tower slowly slid down with Hu Hai's pull!
Prior to this, when the Great Qin Heroic Martyrs Pagoda was built, from the place where the Great Qin Heroic Martyrs Pagoda was built, hundreds of surrounding lengths were covered by a curtain of more than ten zhang long, and it was strictly guarded by the forbidden army in the palace.
Therefore, the people of Xianyang and even the palace guards who are responsible for guarding the surrounding areas only know that the Xianyang Palace Square is building, but they don't know what things are being built! Not to mention what it looks like!
Before Hu Hai lifted the black curtain covering the Great Qin Heroic Pagoda, only Hu Hai, Tian Ren, and the thousands of craftsmen who participated in the design of the Great Qin Heroic Pagoda knew the appearance and structure of the Great Qin Heroic Pagoda.
After the construction was completed, these craftsmen returned to Shangfang, and now Shangfang was guarded like an iron bucket by Hu Hai's Caishi battalion, and it was impossible to leak any news, not to mention that these craftsmen knew what they were building, and His Majesty the Emperor had done enough for them, and they would not say it themselves!
As the incomparably huge black curtain slid to the ground, the Great Qin Heroic Martyrs Pagoda slowly revealed its true face under the expectations of the Great Qin ministers, tens of thousands of Great Qin soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of Xianyang people!
Xianyang Palace Square, with the main hall of Xianyang Palace as the axis, twelve golden people up to twelve zhang stand in two columns in the center of the square in front of the main hall, each golden man is separated by two by two twelve zhang, and the distance between the two columns of golden people is one hundred and eight zhang!
The Great Qin Heroic Martyrs Tower, towering in the middle of the twelve golden people!
When you really saw the true face of the Great Qin Heroic Martyrs Tower shrouded by a huge black curtain, the entire Xianyang Palace Square and the surroundings were suddenly silent!
The Great Qin Heroic Martyr Tower is eighteen zhang high. It is composed of three bodies: tower base, tower base and tower body!
The length and width of the tower base are 18 zhang each, made of a huge piece of bluestone, one zhang higher than the ground of the square, and the railing made of white jade is all around the base of the tower; Above the base of the tower is the tower base, two zhang high, six zhang long and wide, and is piled up by four pieces of complete huge bluestone that is six zhang long and two zhang high; The four huge bluestones that constitute the tower base are like a whole, all of them are carved with flowers, plants, birds, fish, all kinds of rare birds and beasts, a completely carved by precious black jade, a huge lifelike relief black dragon surrounds four huge stones, the huge black jade black dragon head opens its mouth and looks up to the sky, facing the main hall of Xianyang Palace; Above the tower base is the tower body of the Great Qin Heroic Martyr Tower.
In addition to the tower base of one zhang high and the tower base of two zhang high, the tower body of the heroic tower is fifteen zhang high, the length and width of the bottom of the tower body are all three zhang, except for the top of the tower that is as high as three zhang wings to fly, the huge and incomparably lifelike big Qin beast Moyu Xuanniao, the tower body is twelve zhang high!
Xianyang Palace sits in the north and faces south!
In addition to the north and south towers, the nine-zhang long tower body in the middle of the two towers is composed of two huge white jade stones, and the rest of the towers are also made of huge bluestones!
The south tower body is facing the nine-zhang white jade tower in front of the avenue in front of the Xianyang Palace, and in the middle of the body is the "Great Qin Heroic Martyr Tower", five huge black black jade relief characters that are completely different from the small seal of the Great Qin, each word has more than one zhang of size; The north tower body is facing the main hall of Xianyang Palace, and the middle of the nine-zhang white jade tower body is "Great Qin Heroes and Martyrs Immortal" eight huge black black jade relief characters, these eight black jade characters are the same as the "Great Qin Heroes Tower" font of the south tower body!
The thirteen big characters of black jade are all from Hu Hai's handwriting, inscribed by Hu Hai, and carved and inlaid with black jade after rubbing by Tian Ren and Shangfang craftsmen!
The east and west sides of the tower body, the east tower body is the first emperor's crown and sword full body relief statue, and the west tower body is the whole body statue of His Majesty Hu Hairong in the face of the Great Qin Emperor! Just like a real person!
The whole tower body, in addition to these ink characters, the whole body of the floating statue, are all carved pine branches and ancient cypress, moon clouds, dragons and phoenixes, etc.!
Under the sun, the huge black jade bird at the top of the tower exudes a blurry halo, reflecting the huge black dragon surrounded by the tower! The majestic martyr's tower with bluestone as the main material is sacred, solemn, solemn and heavy!
Seeing the black jade Xuanniao, the black jade big characters, and the black dragon that exuded a blurry halo under the sunlight, Hu Hai thought, if this Great Qin Heroic Martyr Pagoda can not be destroyed for thousands of years, will future generations scold themselves as a loser emperor? Will there be an emperor peeking at these precious and abnormal ink jade?
These ink jades have hollowed out all the ink jade and jade in the treasury of the Shangfang Mansion of Great Qin, and now they can be enough!
Hu Hai took the Great Qin jade seal that Ying Teng bowed to behind him, stepped up the steps, and put the jade seal into the mouth of the big black dragon in a dignified manner!
"Boom!"
After a loud sound of shaking the mountains, a bluestone at the base of the southern tower slowly sank into the ground, revealing a huge cavity six zhang wide and two zhang high, and two bluestone stairs appeared at the bottom of the martyr's tower!
The internal structure of the Martyr's Pagoda was all designed by Tian Ren himself, and it was completely built by the children of the Mo family, but the proposal to open the underground palace at the bottom of the Martyr's Pagoda with the jade seal was thought up by Hu Hai.
At the bottom of the Heroic Tower, in addition to the underground of the place occupied by the Heroic Tower, the underground of more than ten zhang underground of Xianyang Palace Square was dug out of a huge empty space with a radius of five miles!
This underground space will be used to store the ashes of the remains of all the fallen Great Qin soldiers! There are dozens of sealed bluestone burial chambers ranging in length and width from one to three zhang on the east and west sides of the underground space, which are used to place the coffins and spirit portraits of the generals and commanders who are willing to be buried in the martyr's tower, as well as the meritorious courtiers and ordinary people who have made great contributions to the Great Qin!
Similarly, the Martyr's Tower is not a solid one, two bluestone stairs, one winds to the underground space, and the other winds upward, which can go straight to the top of the Martyr's Tower! The internal tower body of the Heroic Martyr's Tower will be used to engrave the army and name of the fallen soldiers!
The uppermost part of the tower is where the portraits of the emperors of the past and later dynasties of the Great Qin are placed!
"Heroic martyrs enter the tower!"
Hu Hai shouted!
At the same moment, a snow-white carrier pigeon flapped its wings and fell into a palace room in the apse of Xianyang Palace! Soon, a figure hurried out and came straight to Xianyang Palace Square!
