Is Datang still there? That's a tough question to answer.

First, Zhang Mai did not have a very accurate chronology of historical events in his mind, and he still knew some historical events that he had memorized more deeply in order to cope with the exam, but they were all vague and inaccurate memories, such as the Han Dynasty was founded more than 200 years before AD and perished more than 200 years after AD, and for example, the Opium War in 1840 and the Xinhai Revolution in 1911, these vaguely remember. But what about the Tang Dynasty? When did the Tang Dynasty fall?

You can think back to yourself, if you don't flip through the books and surf the Internet, now I suddenly ask when a certain dynasty was established and when it perished, and how many people can answer it exactly?

What's more, even if Zhang Mai can remember how the Tang Dynasty fell, he can't figure out how many years it is now, so Yang Yiyi asked him, "Is the Tang Dynasty still there", he really didn't know how to answer.

I just want to say, "I don't know." This makes sense from the logic of his story, just looking at the look of expectation of the soldiers and civilians below, and the fragility behind the expectation, Zhang Mai thought: "No, if you don't give everyone a hope at this time, it will be difficult to go forward." ”

Now that the Tang Army of Anxi wants to have no city, no land, and is facing a great enemy, there is only the last bit of faith left to support these people, if there is no even the last bit of belief, and the people's hearts are scattered, then this small ethnic group will be wiped out at any time!

At that moment, Zhang Mai made up his mind, since he had already told a lie, let's tell a bigger one!

"Datang is still there!" Zhang Mai said categorically!

Thousands of people were overjoyed: "Still there? ”

"Yes, it's still there! Not only is it still there, but it has been revived! That voice, that expression, even he himself seemed to be convinced!

Guo Shidao and the others were surprised and delighted, they originally thought that since Zhang Mai had gone through several generations of ancestors to come here, there might not be news of Datang, but who knew that he would be able to bring such good news to everyone.

Zhang Mai pondered in his heart for a while, and said in an unquestionable tone: "When my ancestor was still in Chang'an, the Anshi Rebellion had been pacified, and the imperial court was slowly weakening the feudal towns and bringing power back to the central government. Although people's livelihood is still very tired, the whole country is already showing signs of ZTE. ”

These are historical facts that have been mentioned in history textbooks, and Guo Shidao and the others can't help but nod their heads.

"Later, although our family traveled all the way west, we have always paid attention to the news from Chang'an. In order to continue to occupy them, they snatched the Western Regions from us, and they were afraid that the Western Regions would be recovered by China again like the Han and Tang Dynasties, so they kept releasing some ridiculous rumors, saying that Chang'an was attacked by a Xiucai named Huang Chao or something......" Speaking of this, Zhang Mai slightly ignored his conscience: "But these, our ancestors once analyzed them, and they felt that they were full of flaws, and they were all made up. How can our invincible Datang be broken by a showman? The Hulu make up these lies in order to undermine our morale. ”

Guo Luoyang Yi and the others shouted: "That's right! Hu Lu is the best at deceiving people. ”

"It's all a lie!"

"That's!"

"Whoever dares to say that the Tang Dynasty will be destroyed in the future will be intent on hitting our morale, and whoever is Hu Lu's spies!"

"That's right! For such a malicious spy, he was killed! ”

"That's right! Right! ”

After a long period of turmoil, the valley slowly calmed down, and I heard Zhang Mai say-

"It wasn't until recently that I heard a definite news from the Tianshan Mountains, it turns out that our Datang has not only survived the most dangerous and dark years, but has also been revived!"

Thousands of soldiers and civilians cheered in unison when they heard this, and the sound of "Long live Datang" filled the entire valley, and no one asked Zhang Mai where the news came from and why it was "exact". It took a long time for the cheers to subside, and someone asked, "Special envoy, then why hasn't Chang'an sent someone to meet us?" ”

Although Zhang Mai indicated that he was not the envoy himself, the Tang people thought that his son would inherit his father's business and his grandson would inherit his ancestry, and since Zhang Mai was the descendant of the envoy, the Tang people recognized him as a special envoy -- just as Guo Shidao's family inherited Guo Xin's title.

"National rejuvenation, that's a long process." Zhang Mai said: "When the Han Dynasty was founded for nearly a hundred years, didn't it wait until Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to have the strength to open the Western Regions? Everyone nodded when they heard this, and Zhang Mai said again: "According to the news I received, after the re-emergence of our Datang, we also intended to open the Western Regions again, but we have been isolated for so many years, and we don't know the news here, so we didn't act rashly." Therefore, we must cheer up, actively survive on the one hand, save the Tang brothers who are living in slavery in the Western Regions, contact all the Tang relatives who are still living in various parts of the Western Regions, and unite all the pro-Tang forces to fight against the anti-Tang Hulu! Then like Ban Chao, he will recover the Western Regions, if he can't do it, then lead the people to return to the east, open up the Hexi Corridor, strive to contact Chang'an, back to the Central Plains, and then fight back to restore the Western Regions! Revitalize Datang in an all-round way! ”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, his spit flying, and his ambition was crooked, but many young people shouted: "The envoy is right, the envoy is right!" ”

"At the beginning, Ban Chao only came alone, we have a troop!"

"Yes, we'll make it!"

Zhang Mai spoke dryly, but looking at the high morale of the audience, he thought that this effort was not in vain, and he was about to say something bold to finish, when suddenly several young people rushed up, lifted Zhang Mai up, and carried him into the crowd, Zhang Mai's body was hanging in the air, a little flustered, and shouted: "Be careful, be careful!" ”

But the crowd was shouting: "Datang! Datang! He covered up his words.

Fortunately, his back, buttocks, and thighs are all hands, even if he falls, there are people on his back, and he will not panic slowly, at this time, the morale of the audience is greatly boosted, Zhang Mai in turn was infected, his brain was congested, and there was an impulse in his chest that needed to be vented, so he raised his hand and shouted the slogan: "Long live Datang!" ”

Hundreds of people immediately followed him and shouted: "Long live Datang!" ”

Everyone actually called after themselves? Haha, it's so cool, shout again: "Save Tang Min!" ”

Thousands of people shouted again: "Save Tang Min!" ”

"Restore the Western Regions!"

"Restore the Western Regionsβ€”"

The cries grew louder and louder, and not only young people, but also women, children, and even some old people joined in the chanting.

"Defeat Hui Hui!"

"Defeat the Hui Huiβ€”"

"Destroy the Hulu!"

"Eliminate the Huluβ€”"

"Revitalize Datang!"

"Revitalize the Tang Dynasty-"

……

The gathering on the ruins of broken leaves finally arrived, and after the third watch, people's excitement gradually subsided, and An Liu and others rearranged the incense case and asked Zhang Mai to read the holy decree.

There is no problem with all the soldiers being promoted to seven seniors, but Guo Xin is no longer there, so Zhang Maiti yì, Guo Shidao replaced his ancestors to take over as the protector of Anxi and the envoy of the Four Towns Festival, Guo Shidao was originally the de facto leader of these descendants of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Mai's mention was just pushing the boat down the river, and no one would object.

However, for Guo Shidao, it is also a very gratifying thing that his status can be legally recognized. In turn, on behalf of all the Anxi soldiers and civilians, he recognized Zhang Mai's status: in the ethnic group, Zhang Mai is a messenger and a special envoy, and when he is in the army, he is the superintendent of the army, and his status is very transcendent.

Although there are only 800 troops and horses in the valley now, the victory of the Battle of Broken Leaves and the arrival of the Holy Decree Fish Talisman have inspired everyone, and the morale of all the soldiers and civilians in Anxi is high, and everyone feels that as long as they are closely united around the leading collective with Envoy Zhang, Guo Daduhu, and Yang Zhenshou as the core, the Tang Army of Anxi will definitely be able to overcome the difficulties and move towards victory!

In addition to establishing Zhang Mai's status, the high-level leaders of the Anxi Tang Army later summarized the slogans shouted by Special Envoy Zhang at the party as the four major goals of the Anxi Tang Army: saving the Tang people, contacting Chang'an, recovering the Western Regions and comprehensively revitalizing the Tang Dynasty!

This gave the Tang people of the Western Regions not only a united core, but also a direction to work towards!
