Chapter 850: The military parade is over

Seeing this scene, some of the family members of the martyrs who were next to them couldn't hold back and cried bitterly again.

Because this represents the recognition of them by the Tang Dynasty, the recognition of their merits, and the burial under the national flag, what a glory is this? !

Although there is no national flag in all dynasties, there is a military flag, and the military flag has been attached great importance to the military flag in all dynasties, and there is a perfect system and use of the military flag, and although the national flag has just been born not long ago, but for Datang, because of the propaganda of "Datang Weekly", everyone knows that the Datang national flag represents Datang! And now, the coffins of these martyrs are covered with the national flag.

You must know that when many people die, they may not even have a set of clothes, but can only wrap a straw mat.

When all the coffins of the martyrs were covered with the national flag, the ceremony of entering the park of the martyrs officially began.

From here, they will follow the newly built new official road to the Datang National Martyrs Cemetery, about 10 miles away, which has been completely rebuilt.

Of course, Li Shimin and all of them will go together.

Soon, all the carriages were ready, but Li Shimin and Li Ke, the princes, naturally did not take the carriage, but chose to ride a horse, and the clothes on everyone's bodies were either black or light-colored when they set off today.

No one wears fancy clothes, not even ordinary people know about it, and of course there are not many people who have brightly colored clothes.

Even Li Shimin and Li Ke's royal clothes are black as the main color today, and of course others don't dare to wear clothes indiscriminately.

Go to the martyrs' cemetery, these envoys have nothing to do with them, they don't have to go.

But like the eldest grandson queen, they will go together.

However, to Li Ke's surprise, many people followed the team that sent the martyrs to the National Martyrs' Cemetery.

Qin Qiong, who was in charge of guarding security, came over to inquire.

"Your Majesty wants the soldiers to separate them? There are too many people. Qin Qiong asked in a low voice.

"Don't, let them follow, the song that those soldiers sang just now is very good, since our army in the Tang Dynasty is the army of the people, the army of the people, in this case, why should I be afraid of my people, my people?" Li Shimin shook his head calmly and said.

"Yes!" Qin Qiong directly bent down and bowed her head in return, and then quickly went to explain to the relevant personnel.

The word "people" is not original to Li Ke, Li Shimin also knows what it means, "Mencius, Dedication, Xia" has a relevant record: the treasure of the princes three: land, people, and political affairs. Those who treasure the jewels and jade will be killed.

Today's military parade and related ceremonies have given countless shocks to the people of Datang, although there are only more than 100,000 or 200,000 people who can directly watch the ceremony, but there are too many people who can see a little from a distance.

And today's event can be said to touch the pride in the hearts of hundreds of people in Datang, they may not have much culture, but this kind of big truth, someone told them, they understand! Therefore, many people spontaneously wanted to give these martyrs a ride.

When I arrived at the Martyrs' Cemetery, there was nothing Li Ke could do, because the main procedures here were the responsibility of the Ministry of Rites, well, the Ministry of Rites finally came into play, in fact, even if the Ministry of Rites was responsible here, Li Ke also asked them to streamline the relevant procedures as much as possible.

It is more based on military salutes and national salutes, and the procedures are relatively simple, but they are definitely solemn enough.

According to the rules of the Ministry of Rites, it is estimated that it will take at least half a day to finish here, and considering that we will have to come to worship every year in the future, there is no need for those complicated procedures.

The entire martyrs' cemetery will be guarded by the security forces for a long time, and there will be a watchman here, but the watchman will be recruited by veterans, etc., and there will be no restrictions on the entry and exit of the people.

At the entrance to the Martyrs' Cemetery there is also a square with a small monument to the heroes, behind which there will be a number of large monuments with the names of all the martyrs inscribed.

Some of the unknown martyrs will be given an indication of the unit in which they served and their hometown.

The layout is much like that of a later public cemetery, except that the spacing between each cemetery is larger.

After Li Shimin and the others left, many people spontaneously came here to worship.

Leaving the martyrs' cemetery and on the way back, Li Shimin said with some emotion: "After today, the soul of the Tang Dynasty should stand, and the Tang Dynasty will not have to worry about it." ”

"Well done." Li Shimin looked at Li Ke and praised him.

"Actually, I just put them where they should be. Those who serve the country and the people deserve the respect of the country and the people. Li Ke nodded seriously.

"Today's impact is huge, and I am afraid that after today, the situation of these small countries around us will change fundamentally." Li Shimin thought for a while and said. "Pharmacist, what direction do you think our strategic direction should shift next?"

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Qin has made a good start for the Tang army, but in terms of strategic goals, I am afraid that Goguryeo and Xue Yantuo are our next targets. However, today's envoys from Xue Yantuo and Goguryeo are here, watching today's military parade, the two should be honest for a few years, and within this time, they will just carry out the restructuring of our Tang army to the end. Li Jing said.

"It's true, but the minister thinks that the Xue Yantuo Department, it is better for us to send envoys to investigate the Xue Department and the Yantuo Department to see if it is more secure for them to split." Fang Xuanling next to him spoke.

"There's nothing wrong with this, but I'm afraid we have to cooperate with Huo Shangshu in this regard." Fang Xuanling looked at Huo Gang next to him.

"No problem." Huo Gang nodded slightly, intelligence work is their duty, and he naturally will not refuse.

Li Ke did not participate in their discussion, today's Datang has taken the most critical step, if the follow-up can give Datang another two years, then the Tang army will have the confidence to make whether it is Xue Yantuo, Khitan or Murwei all become a minority singing and dancing.

It's the trouble of Goguryeo, which will have to be solved sooner or later, but Goguryeo, the Tang Dynasty is not the former Sui, and the current Tang Dynasty does not need to directly and slowly disintegrate them as in history.

In the Honglu Temple in Chang'an City, Del Barles and Said, today's shock made them also have a different mind, before the purchase of Datang's weapons was their last resort, the reason why the two of them negotiated peace, in fact, there is also an idea that they don't want to make their domestic wealth away from the Tang Dynasty.

Although they also made a lot of profits from Byzantium through these goods of the Tang Dynasty, military weapons and equipment also need to be bought, and these also need money. So none of them wanted to buy it.

The main thing is that they are not fools, and Datang sells weapons to both sides, isn't it just to make them evenly matched? Although it is said that the hatred between the two sides of them cannot be reconciled, it is impossible to reconcile, but it can be tactically negotiated.

But after today...... The two of them have changed their minds somewhat, what if one of them doesn't buy it, and the other buys it? Datang's weapons are too powerful!

Entering Chang'an City, Li Ke was distracted, and suddenly Li Shimin next to him looked at Li Ke, squinted his eyes and said, "Li Ke, come, do you have anything to tell me about Changle?" ”
