Chapter 221: Tougo's Speech
Recommend a friend's book "Emperor Conquering the World", the late Tang Dynasty Emperor's text, if you are interested, you can take a look.
……
In Xinping Town in February, the weather is still cold.
Tens of thousands of people of the Xinping Army gathered in the Martyrs' Shrine, and the eight envoys of the Eighth Army in the River and Du Yuhou and others also gathered at the Martyrs' Shrine.
Ma Lan stood in front of the giant monument with the generals of the new army and a group of officials, their expressions were extremely solemn.
"Bye!" Duan Xiushi stood in front of the giant monument and shouted loudly.
Ma Lan and the generals of the new army bowed at the same time and bowed to the giant monument three times in a row. The staff also followed their example and bowed to the monument three times in a row.
Tens of thousands of people in the Xinping Army did not understand this popular understanding among the Anxi army, and they all knelt down slowly and bowed their heads to the monument in their own accustomed way. Many people think of their dead relatives, and they can't help but shed tears when they think of their dead relatives.
After bowing, Ma Lan climbed onto the platform under the giant monument.
All eyes fell on him.
Looking at the tens of thousands of people in Guanzhong on the square, at this moment, Ma Lan was also excited.
Every dead Han family should be remembered forever.
This place will become a sacred place in the hearts of the Han people in the river. Every Han family child who died west of the Green Mountain will be honored here.
The dead are gone, and the living can only make their deaths more valuable by working hard.
Open up Caolai, build towns, settle down, and then expand outwards to make more places the world of the Han family's clothes, and it will start here!
At the time of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the world was divided, and its land was just a corner of the Central Plains, and the feudal princes overcame all the thorns and thorns, and continued to open up for hundreds of years, integrating the surrounding barbarians, and the territory of the Zhou State became larger and larger. After generations, the ancestors continued to open up Caolai, and the bloody impact of the war again and again will make the Han family full of Chinese Kyushu.
Today's situation in the river is just a grass creation, even though the losses are heavy, but after all, the first step has been taken, and hundreds of thousands of Han people have taken a foothold in the west of the Green Mountain.
This piece of land is occupied by the Tang Dynasty and will never be abandoned in the future.
As Hermes-Epitek multiplies and grows in population, it will occupy more and more territory. The Sassanid Empire alone once supported more than 20 million people, and this land could support enough Han Chinese.
Now it occupies only a corner of land, and if there is not enough land, it can be obtained with a sword.
"Guys, a certain family has a few words to say!"
As soon as Ma Lan spoke, his voice was even a few points louder than that of Du Huan, the son of the family, but he didn't realize it, and his expression was slightly excited.
……
This time, Ma said a lot. His mind was so chaotic that he didn't know what he was talking about in the end. His voice became more and more excited, his expression became more and more excited, and finally he fainted directly on the platform, but fortunately he was caught by Niu Xu.
What he said, the people didn't really understand. What the people of Xinping Army can probably remember, that is, "Under the whole world, all are Tang soil, and the shore of the land is all Tang people".
As for the opening of frontiers, slave breeding, plantations, and the like, those grand ideas are not very well understood. Of course, everyone doesn't care, and the most important thing in the eyes of Hermes-Epitek now is to take care of the Yongye fields that they have shared.
……
When Ma Lan woke up, what he saw was Kang Lin'er's pale little face, and the other pink little face in the room was his beloved baby Ma Chen.
"What's wrong with me?" Ma Lan looked around and said a little dazed.
"Father, you're a pig, you've been sleeping for days!" Pony ran over and said coquettishly.
"How many days have you been sleeping?" Ma Luan looked a little dazed and muttered. Kang Lin'er smiled and nodded, but her eyes were slightly red.
"I'll call Mr. Duan." Kang Lin'er rubbed the corners of her eyes vigorously, helped Ma Lan to sit up, and then walked out quickly.
"Father, you can really sleep! Are you really a pig? Ma Chen reached out and grabbed the stubble on Ma Lan's face, and said in a milky voice.
Ma Lan looked at his son's cute appearance and slowly came back to his senses.
Duan Xiushi walked in quickly, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ma Xuan wake up.
"General, you are exhausted and tired. You know what? You've passed out for seven days! ”
"Seven days?"
"Seven days!" Duan Xiushi nodded, "If you are an ordinary person, you will starve to death after seven days, that is, you have a super strong physique, so you can survive until now." ”
"It's been seven days!" Ma Lan nodded.
He had a long dream, dreaming of a brief happy time in his previous life, when the woman with a smile as bright as the sun was still by his side. He also dreamed of Chang'an City more than ten years ago, and dreamed of Ma Ling and Kang Xiaoyu at that time. I also dreamed of the bloody battle of the Talas River, and the fire of the city was built......
The chaotic memories are like a quagmire, some belong to him, and some belong to Ma Lan, a man in Guanzhong, almost tearing his consciousness apart, and it seems to drown his intellect.
Ever since he entered the river with the army, his nerves had been tense. This time in the speech in the Martyrs' Shrine, the spirit of the surging heart finally reached the limit, and it was completely unbearable.
Taking these things too seriously, that's why he ends up collapsing. If it weren't for a trace of clarity on the spiritual platform, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get rid of the dream. In that case, you will really become a waste.
"Madam, let the general eat first, just drink some gruel, nothing else." Duan Xiushi looked at Kang Lin'er and said.
Kang Lin'er nodded, put the white porridge with dates that had been hot, brought it to Ma Lan's side, and carefully fed it with a wooden spoon.
Duan Xiushi turned his face away, but he didn't leave. Ma Ling drank a bowl of porridge, regained some strength, and asked Kang Lin'er to hold another bowl, but didn't let Kang Lin'er feed it again, so she picked up the bowl and drank it all.
Ma Lu wanted to drink again, but Duan Xiushi didn't allow it. Looking around, Ma Ling realized that he was no longer in the Xinping Army, but in the palace of King An in the city.
"Cheng Gong, did I say something wrong that day?" Ma Lan asked.
It seemed that a lot of words were said that day, and the emotions of the people were also very high, it should have been a good speech, but he didn't remember exactly what he said.
Duan Xiushi shook his head and said, "You can say yes, you can also say no." It's not a big deal, you're heartbroken for everyone, you've become like this, you're completely exhausted, even if you say the wrong thing, no one cares about you, don't worry, no one will say those arrogant words. ”
"Trespassing?" Ma Luan's face changed slightly, "Chenggong, what does this mean?" What did I say? I don't have any intention of rebelling! ”
Duan Xiushi smiled and said, "Which one said you were going to rebel?" If you say you're going to rebel, I won't believe it. You and I have been friends for more than ten years, others don't know you, I still don't know you Ma Renjie? Don't say it, just a few gossips, it's not a big deal. ”
Ma Lan looked at Duan Xiushi and knew that he would definitely refuse to tell himself, and it was impossible for him to say it. Then wait a little while to find the cow, and the little calf will not dare to lie in front of him.
"General, it's cold, it's really not suitable to send troops and horses, what you said about attacking Ximi is put aside for the time being, anyway, it's all meat on the chopping board, and you can't run away. The general will rest in the mansion for a few more days, and I will take care of the rest. ”
"I'm going to spread the news of your wake up now, many people come to ask every day these days, let's not talk about our own people, and I have also come to ask several times, and I seem to be more nervous than me. There is also the Persian governor Mukun, who came several times a day to inquire about the news with gifts, but I blocked him. ”
"These two guys? I'm afraid I'm looking forward to the early death of a certain family! Ma Luan's eyes were slightly cold, and he nodded and said, "Chenggong, you go and get busy!" If they come again, let them in and let them in, and let them not hinder them. ”
Duan Xiushi nodded and left, and after a while, Niu Xu walked in with red eyes.
"Uncle Pony, you're awake!"
"Don't worry, I can't die, I still have to go back to Chang'an to drink with your eighth uncle and Uncle Lei!" Ma Lan smiled, "Little calf, tell me the truth, what did I say that day?" ”
Niu Xu scratched his head and said: "Duan Junzi won't let me tell you, he said that others will definitely not tell you, just I will talk more, if I do, he will not remember my military exploits, and he will drive me back to Chang'an." ”
"Stinky boy, do you listen to him or to me?" Ma Lan glared.
Niu Xu said: "I naturally listened to Uncle Pony, but Duan Junzi forced me to swear, and I can't tell you." But I think Uncle Pony is right, even if Datang dies one day, our descendants will still live here from generation to generation. ”
After speaking, the corners of Niu Xu's mouth twitched, and her delicate face instantly turned red, and she quickly covered her mouth.
"That's it?" The corners of Ma Lan's mouth also twitched.
Niu Xu grinned and said, "That's it." Uncle Xiaoma, your original words are: Sooner or later, Datang will be defeated, but as long as our descendants are enough and strong enough, we can still guard this land and live from generation to generation. I think what you said is very right, but Duan Junzi said that this is an arrogant remark, and asked everyone in the army not to mention it again, and I am not allowed to tell you, so as not to affect your mood. ”
"That's right." Ma Lan smiled and nodded.
What kind of arrogance is this, Duan Junzi is really overly cautious.
Throughout the ages, which dynasty wants to last forever, but how can there be a dynasty that lasts forever?
The Tang Dynasty cannot be the Tang Dynasty forever, and one day it will cease to exist, and as long as the Hermes-Epitek multiplies in the river, this piece of land will belong to Hermes-Epitek forever.
Therefore, the most important thing is to let the Hermes-Epitek occupy a large enough territory here and reproduce a large enough population.
A personal soldier walked in and said, "Persian Numukun asks to see the general." ”
This pro-soldier had participated in the Battle of Shule North, so he looked down on Mu Kun very much, and his words were extremely contemptuous. Ma Lan stood up, patted Ma Chen's little brain, and strode out.
He also wanted to know what this Persian slave had to say when he came to him.
Mu Kun can actually say that the Son of Heaven issued a holy decree to reopen the Persian Governor's Mansion, but he has some energy. But Quicksand Exi is his own decision, and how can Mu Kun get what he wants. (To be continued.) )
