"Isn't that right?" Ma Lan glanced at the young man and said with a light smile, "Boy, tell me, why is it wrong for a certain family to act?" ”

Everyone looked at the young officer with extremely strange expressions. I had never seen anyone who dared to talk to a general like this before.

The young man's expression was excited, he clenched his fists hard, raised his head to look at Ma Luan and said loudly: "General! In the past, when Gaozong was in the dynasty, he abolished Anbei, pulled out a single Yu, abandoned the turtle, and let go of Shule, and the world was called Shengde, so what is it? Gai Yiming's monarch's affairs are not in the benevolence, and his affairs are not in the cultivation, and he will be disdainful of the borders, and the soldiers will be suspended, and those who do the things of the three emperors and the five emperors will also——"

"Zhao Guang! What are you doing! What a fart you fart! Tian Mingyuan looked angry, looked at the young man and shouted.

This young man is a combat staff officer in his army, and he disagrees with the army's expedition and food on weekdays, and has always been easy to talk about, but he is also a capable person, and he is quite appreciated. Tian Ming was far from expecting that this guy would of course accuse the general, and he was extremely anxious for a while.

"Mingyuan, let him speak." Ma Lan waved his hand, signaled Tian Mingyuan to be quiet, turned his head to look at the young man and smiled faintly, "Boy, you can continue." The army is full of fighting men, so don't drag the text, keep talking, talk about people! ”

"General, how is this kind of murder different from a beast?" The young man named Zhao Guang lowered his heart, blushed and said loudly, "My Tang Dynasty is a state of etiquette, how can I do such beastly behavior!" Aliens are also born and raised by their parents, how can they be so slaughtered! General, some people have compared you to a human slaughter, and the general has done so much injustice, aren't you afraid that you will not die well? ”

"Zhao Guang! You are crazy! Tian Mingyuan was so angry that his face turned white and shouted loudly.

Ma Lan waved his hand and said with a light smile: "Mingyuan, don't worry." I don't know why. If this kid wants to speak, just let him speak. - Boy, how many people kill people in vain, and how many people kill people in a certain family! Just a few people slaughter white, how can they be compared with a certain family! As for the good death...... Hehe, a certain family is expanding the territory for Datang. This heart can be learned, whether he can die well or not, who cares about him! Boy, do you think that a certain family is greedy for life and afraid of death? Hehe! To be able to use the sword of the Tang Dynasty to open up land for the plough of the Tang Dynasty, I wish it was enough! As for personal honor and disgrace, wait for idle ears! ”

"Use the sword of the Tang Dynasty to open up land for the plough of the Tang Dynasty! This sentence is inherently wrong! The boy blushed and said loudly.

"Is that wrong?" Ma Lan smiled lightly, "What's wrong, you tell me!" ”

The young man clenched his fists and said loudly, "The west of the city is already extremely remote. The big food in the river is far away from the Central Plains, and the people outside the country have been recuperating here for a long time, and have never had anything to do with the Central Plains. The Huanghuang Tang Dynasty, all countries come to the dynasty, and among the many feudal states, there are also people and regions. Each has its own customization, and the big food is a unique domain. Far away from the Central Plains, they are guarding their land, why do they want to massacre like this! My Datang has a vast territory, and the land is enough for the people of the Central Plains to thrive, so why use it to fight on all sides and cause more trouble! Do not practice righteousness. Unauthorized use of swords, even more cruelty, wanton slaughter, such an act, the general asked himself. Don't you think you should introspect! General—"

"It turned out to be a stupid boy who reads books." Ma Lan smiled and interrupted the young man's words.

"General, this guy is a nerd, don't bother with him." Tian Mingyuan said continuously.

Ma Lan smiled, looked at the young man, and said, "Boy, I tell you, a wise man said that the greatest happiness of mankind is in victory: conquer your enemies, chase them, seize their possessions, make their lovers weep, ride their horses, and embrace their wives and daughters. That's what we're doing, and it's a good idea to remember that. ”

"General! This is shameless! I don't remember any sage who ever said anything like that. Zhao Guangguang said.

"You don't know, it's because you read few books and are lonely and unheard." Ma Lan smiled, "Not to mention who said this, just what you said is a big problem." Emperor Gaozong is majestic and strategic, how can you slander him at will! ”

The young man was slightly stunned: "How could I have slandered Emperor Gaozong?" ”

Ma Ling looked condescendingly at the young man kneeling on the ground, and smiled coldly: "Waste Anbei!" Pull out the order in! Abandon the turtles! Let go of Sparser! Boy, do you know that the relocation of the Metropolitan Protectorate of Anbei to Monan, and the removal of the Metropolitan Protectorate alone was due to the rebellion of the Turks in the Guardian Prefecture, not the original intention of Emperor Gaozong! The reason for giving up Qiuzi and Shule is because Tubo entered Kou'anxi, and it was a last resort! Emperor Gaozong was a great man and a great man in his life, if it were not forced by the situation, how could he give up an inch of land! You read books but don't read history, no wonder you are so confused! ”

"In your opinion, the west of the city is already extremely remote, and the big food in the river is far away from the Central Plains, these places should be given up and let the people outside the country recuperate! Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, I have repeatedly fought with Tubo in the west of the country for more than 100 years, consuming money and losing athletes, in your opinion, it should not be! The Central Plains is rich, the west is barren, it is useless to ask for it, and it is a waste of money, this is what you think! ”

The young man wanted to tell the difference, but Ma Lan waved his hand and continued.

"For more than 100 years, my Tang Dynasty and Tubo have repeatedly fought in the west of the city, are everyone idiots and don't know that it will consume wealth and human lives? These ministers and the emperors of the past dynasties who stood above the court are all fools! ”

"How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, Tubo is a big country, and I am bound to not be able to coexist! Therefore, the state set up four towns to contain Tibet, divide its military strength, and reduce the pressure on the source of the river. For more than 100 years, Anxi athletes have been in the bloody field, and this is why! If there are no four towns in Anxi, Tubo can concentrate on the east, in that case, I don't know how many lives will be lost and how much wealth will be consumed! ”

Exhaling lightly, Ma Lan looked at the young man and said coldly: "Now that Tubo has been extinguished, the stars are scattered, and the external troubles of Datang seem to have been lifted, but the big food in the west is still my Datang's fierce enemy!" You only know the distinction between people and the Absolute Domain, and you only know that the Ministry of Rites regards the Great Eclipse as a Desperate Domain, and you don't need to be Hezheng every year, but you don't know the ambition of the Great Cannibal Wolf, as early as decades ago, the Great Food King has issued an order, and whoever can conquer the Central Plains will be the governor of the Central Plains! ”

Hearing this, the crowd was amazed. It was the first time they had heard of such ambitions for the Great Cannibals.

"My Tang Dynasty and Tubo plus the big food, on both sides of the green ridge is the momentum, the big cannibal wants to go east, facing two big rivals. And now that Tubo is wiped out in my hands, it is the time for Dashi and Datang to confront each other head-on! At this time, if I don't completely destroy the Great Eclipse, do I have to wait for the Great Cannibal to recuperate? ”

"Boy, a certain family asks you, if it is not my Tang Dynasty that destroys Tibet, but the Great Eclipse, if it is the Great Cannibal who has such an advantage instead of our Tang people, then what is the situation at this time? After the Great Cannibal entered the Central Plains, I wonder if there will be a Great Food General like you, who thinks they kill too much! ”

"Just think about it, if it is now in the land of my Tang Dynasty, it is the Great Cannibal who has entered the Central Plains in a big way, and has an overwhelming advantage in armament, will the Great Cannibal be merciful to the Tang people!"

"It's better to teach people to be afraid, not to teach people to bully! In an enemy country, how can you be powerful if you don't kill people? Tell me, boy, why should I do this? ”

The young man blushed and said loudly, "Even if you have to conquer the Great Food...... There's no need to kill so many people. If they are willing to surrender, why do they want to kill them like this? ”

Ma Lu said coldly: "The Great Food has not yet completely surrendered, Isfahan City must be taken, and now it is in the enemy's land, and you will do whatever it takes to achieve the end, each of you should remember this!" When all the great cannibals have surrendered, we will naturally establish a new order, but for now...... What is good for us, we will do! Even if it can reduce our losses a little, it should be done! ”

Seeing that the young man was no longer talking, Ma Ling waved his hand: "Get up, don't kneel." If you kneel down again, I won't spare these aliens. ”

The boy stood up silently, but said no more. There was a thoughtful look on his face, obviously thinking about Ma Luan's words.

"You're a Tang man...... So you are allowed to speak, you are allowed to give your opinion, but in this matter...... The opinion is still reserved. Ma Lan turned his head to look at Tian Mingyuan, "This kid is your subordinate?" ”

"Back to the general, this kid is stupid to read, don't worry about him. The heart is softer, and the specific affairs are still good. Tian Mingyuan hurriedly said.

"As I said, he is a Tang man, so he can naturally express his opinion. But there is nothing new to say, the teacher of benevolence and righteousness, the teacher of kings...... Hehe, these words have no meaning for our Anxi Army, the prestige of the Anxi Army is killed! Soft-hearted...... This is a problem, famous, can this kid make Mo Dao? ”

Tian Mingyuan said with a smile: "General, we are all good men in our army, how can anyone not use a knife." ”

"That being the case...... Don't be a staff officer for the time being, I already have enough combat staff officers here. Let him be a school captain, Mingyuan, and when he arrives in Isfahan, he will slaughter two cities, and then let Captain Zhao Guang lead people to participate in the slaughter of the city! ”

"Yes, General!" Tian Mingyuan said loudly. Seeing Ma Lan, he didn't blame Zhao Guang, he was also relieved.

The young man's face turned pale, but he didn't say anything more. After several years in the army, battlefield fighting is also common, in fact, he is not afraid of killing, but what he dislikes is the slaughter of foreign people. The general's words also touched him a little, although he was very deeply conflicted with the concept in his heart, but he couldn't imagine that the cannibals would be good men and women after entering the Central Plains, and the general's words still had some truth.

In the distance, the smoke grew higher and higher. After a long time, the Tang soldiers rushed out of the city gate, carrying a large amount of booty, began to regroup outside the city gate, and then quickly returned to the team.

There may or may not be survivors in the city, but it doesn't matter anymore. Even if there were survivors, it would be impossible to go to Isfahan to pass on information.

The army left the city and continued southeast, and in a day or two it would reach Isfahan, the place of the decisive battle.

At the same moment, at the head of the city of Isfahan, the Shia caliph Ibrahim stood on a high place, looking at the dense crowd inside and outside the city.

One of the guards walked up to the tower and said a few quick words, and Ibrahim's face immediately changed. (To be continued......)
