Chapter 416: National Day, Monument to the Tang Soldiers

When they heard His Majesty's words, everyone looked stunned.

On the contrary, the eldest grandson Wuji was very calm, because he already knew what His Majesty said and what he was talking about.

The things that should come still have to come, and since His Majesty has already said this, it would be good for all of them to listen quietly.

He was on the sidelines, unmoved.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what Your Majesty means by this National Day?"

"Yes, what is the National Day, what does it mean, Your Majesty?"

Everyone was staring at each other, and they didn't know what His Majesty said about it, could it be that this was a new festival?

"Ladies and gentlemen, since the world was in turmoil in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, I, the Tang Dynasty, complied with the will of heaven and raised troops to fight in Shanxi.

occupied Chang'an, and later, based on Chang'an, began to attack the whole world.

Later, the whole world was unified by our Tang Dynasty, and the people no longer suffered from war.

This is the blessing of my Tang Dynasty and the blessing of my people. ”

It's just that when they heard what His Majesty said, everyone looked at it again.

What does Your Majesty want to say?

"It's just that it seems that the people of this world have forgotten about my Tang Dynasty's army to fight.

I am worried that it will not be many years before we will conquer the territory and regain the whole world.

Because the world is not at war, it is gradually forgotten by people.

At that time, how many people will still remember my Tang Dynasty soldiers, who once fought on the battlefield, threw their heads, and spilled their blood? ”

Hearing His Majesty's words, the ministers shouted.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor Taishang raised troops in Shanxi and conquered the whole world.

After years of fighting, the world has returned to its heart, and it is the destiny of heaven.

Even if a hundred years have passed, future generations will definitely remember it. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, so please rest assured."

The ministers said this one by one, and Li Er nodded again.

"yes, I was thinking that my worries might be too much."

"Your Majesty."

"It's just everyone, I feel that in addition to this incident, there are also my soldiers from the Tang Dynasty?

And who will remember them?

The soldiers who went to war, the shroud of horse leather was left in a foreign land.

These soldiers are all spilling their blood for my Tang Dynasty, and these soldiers of Zhenjue have spilled their blood with their heads.

If it is forgotten, it is too unfair to the soldiers.

I'm waiting in Chang'an City, and I can enjoy it to the fullest.

And those soldiers, no one cares, everyone, do you feel like this? ”

"Your Majesty, in fact, this matter is also very simple.

My soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are fighting on the front line, and since they are fighting, they should take it as their responsibility to fight on the battlefield.

Besides, didn't all the soldiers, whoever came to join the army, give them food?

Those soldiers who performed very well on the battlefield have all been knighted and honored.

So Your Majesty, this matter Weichen thinks that what my court has done is also very interesting. ”

Li Er nodded when he heard this, and then glanced at the minister who spoke and spoke.

"I remember, your son is more than 17 years old this year, right?"

"Your Majesty."

The minister smiled directly, and in this case, His Majesty mentioned his son, is it to promote his son to a knighthood?

"It just so happened that I decided to go to Goguryeo, and there was still a lack of a vanguard.

This time I went to fight Goguryeo, and I have your son, right? ”

Hearing His Majesty's words, the minister's face became very ugly.

"Your Majesty, my son is a man of letters, and he doesn't know how to fight.

If he is allowed to engage in civilian work and work for Datang, it is still possible.

The so-called Weichen Jue decided to let him come to participate in the imperial examination next year.

In the future, if I enter the court, I can use it for Your Majesty, and this is the glory of my son.

When it comes to marching and fighting, he doesn't understand anything. ”

After saying that, he smiled awkwardly!

As soon as the words fell, Li Er's little eyes skimmed.

"Oh, according to what you mean, your son doesn't understand anything about this march and fight, and the other soldiers of my Datang understand everything about marching and fighting?

All the soldiers did not know how to fight at the beginning, and they were only after continuous training that they could go to the battlefield to fight the enemy.

Are you right? ”

Hearing what the saint said, the ministers who had just said all kinds of ministers hurriedly saluted and nodded in agreement.

"Yes, Your Majesty, in fact, Weichen feels that this soldier who went to the battlefield should indeed not be forgotten.

I should have to do other things, but I didn't think about other things.

It is up to the Holy to decide. ”

As far as the small thoughts of their group of people, Li Er said that he had already taken it to death.

Tell them a thousand, pour ten thousand, it's not useful at all.

Only by experiencing it on them personally, then all of them will have personal pain.

There is a good saying, if the whip is not drawn on one's body, this person will never hurt.

As soon as their vital interests are touched, everyone will turn around.

Speaking of this, his little eyes were filled with a disdainful smile.

"I was thinking about it, and I couldn't sleep last night, thinking about it, every time I went to fight in the Tang Dynasty.

It was all my Datang soldiers who fought bloodily, but in the end, they only got some land and money.

So in addition to this, I decided to arrange a vacant land in my Chang'an City to build.

Build a monument to the Tang Dynasty soldiers, a Datang classroom, and at the same time, set the day when my Datang raised troops in Shanxi as the National Day of my Datang.

Beginning this year, on this day of the National Day, all the emperors of the Tang Dynasty will take hundreds of civil and military officials to the Tang Dynasty Soldiers Monument to worship.

In this way, I would like to thank the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty for defending the country and fighting on the battlefield.

At the same time, I also warn everyone that my Datang country is not easy to come by.

The country of my Datang was pioneered by soldiers with blood.

I also need my soldiers to defend with blood.

As the saying goes, be prepared for danger in times of peace, we don't want to be unscrupulous and do whatever we want because now that this battle has been won and the world is too peaceful.

We must always remember the humiliation that we were brought to us by the Turks.

In the end, we and others worked hard to destroy the Turks! ”

Li Er said as he spoke, his expression becoming excited.

Brother Xian said these words, until he saw this situation today, he really understood what he meant.

People are always like this, and they won't understand it at all if they haven't experienced it.

What a price was paid in the previous conquests, and I will not understand the emotions of today.

With this order, no one said anything for a while.

Who dares to say it, there is no need to say more, as long as Your Majesty says a word, you can do it, and you will directly scare everyone without any temper!

"Your Majesty, I don't know how Your Majesty's monument to the Tang Dynasty soldiers should be arranged?"

How to arrange it?

Li Er thought for a moment.

This matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Rites, and other personnel will be arranged at that time.

Put this monument to the Tang Dynasty soldiers and choose a feng shui treasure.

This time, no one raised objections, and everyone shouted, Your Majesty.

Li Er also nodded with satisfaction.

This arrangement is very good, in line with your own heart!

"Ladies and gentlemen, is there anything else?"

This time everyone stood silently, not talking, and there was nothing else to do.

Li Er waved his hand!

"Since you have nothing to do, let's retreat first!"

Greetings to Your Majesty.

Li Er called the officials of the Ministry of Rites down and went to the Taiji Hall with him to discuss.

"Your Majesty."
