Different from the emperor's feelings in the imperial city, Yue Lei is now immediately at the border, looking at the heavy snow in the north and frowning. 【】
This is Shuozhou, located outside the Yanmen Pass, adjacent to the grassland in the north, previously belonged to the Jin State and the old Liao Xijing Road, since the old Tang Dynasty ceded it to the Khitans, here has been far away from the Central Plains Dynasty for more than 200 years.
Now that this place is back under the rule of the Great Song Dynasty, Yue Lei did not have a trace of joy in his heart, and along the Xijing of the Jin Kingdom to the north, he encountered a stronger enemy than the Jin people.
"Mughul Murwei" is the name they left in the history books, also known as the Mongolian Department, but they did not expect that they still exist on the grassland.
Yue Lei knew that the boundless grassland was like a huge colosseum, where countless races arose, slashed, enslaved, and annihilated, and some did not even have the qualifications to leave their names in the history books, but in the end, those who could stay were the most ferocious beasts.
Without the restraint of the Jin people, these Mongol tribes really launched a frenzied attack on the southern lands like beasts that had broken free from chains and cages.
Before this heavy snow covered, Yanmen Pass had endured more than ten battles large and small, and none of the enemies were the same, they were more like the original Liao and Jin people's "grass valley" in general, grab a handful and leave, or be crippled and flee back to the vast grassland. Although the Song army received a large number of Jin military horses, one was not yet adapted to the battle on horseback, and the other was a vast grassland, and there was nowhere to chase if they wanted to.
"If they are unified, just like the Khitan and Jurchen, then the Central Plains will face another terrifying opponent. ”
Yue Lei had already handed the song to the Jingshi a year ago, but the entire Great Song Dynasty was filled with luck falling from the sky, like a long-hungry beggar who was suddenly invited into the house to enjoy a big meal, no one cared if there were still swords, guns and flames outside the door, and his song did not even stir up a little wave. Even after Yang Jizhou returned to Beijing, he became depressed in that atmosphere, and the letters he brought always made him feel a little restless, but when will this wait come to an end?
Do you have to wait until the Mongols grow stronger and become a powerful race like the Khitans and Jurchens?
He frowned, looking.
In the heavy snow, there is no trace of people in Siye, but he knows that after the snow stops, those cattle and sheep will freeze to death, lack of food and clothing, and the tribes that can't survive this winter will go south desperately - for thousands of years, they have been like this, Qin and Han have Xiongnu, Wei and Jin have Wuhu, Tang has Turkic, and the Great Song Dynasty has experienced Khitan, Jurchen, and party items in the past two hundred years, and now there is one more Mongolia in front of them.
Since China was born in heaven and earth, and she was given fertile fields to cultivate and multiply, why did she give birth to strong enemies in the bitter cold land around her? The war between the Central Plains and the surrounding Yi, Di, Barbarian, and Rong never ended, and there was only a temporary stop. 【】
Why is this the case?
......
"Savagery and civilization are aimless expansion, and restraint and steady progress. Cen Qing walked out of the void, stopped at Yue Lei's side, looked north along his gaze, and said, "There are occasional flashes of civilization in the barbarism, such as Loulan and Yueshi in the Western Regions, and even the Northern Wei Dynasty and Great Liao later, but it is only an occasional flash of fire, and it will soon be wiped out by the new barbarian race. Pengsheng hemp, not upright and straight, white sand in Nirvana, with black with it. ”
Yue Lei looked sideways, not surprised by Cen Qing's sudden appearance, he had heard the news of Cen Qing's death before, but he believed that this person always represented a miracle.
As if some stone had been removed from his heart, he sighed softly and asked, "Are you back?"
"I have seen Marshal Yue's heroic spirit in the Jiuqu Cong Temple, and with his help, I can recast my body. Cen Qing is still the same as before, just like the day when the magic trick entered the soul, there was not even the slightest change, he bowed deeply to Yue Lei, "In this life, you have to pass on the art and gift the law from your father and son, and the gratitude cannot be repaid." ”
"You have fulfilled his wish for my father, and you have brought the people of the North to the light of day, and this is the greatest reward. Yue Lei raised his hand and wanted to help Cen Qing up in the void, but found that the other party was like a reflection in the water, and it was impossible to fathom at all.
After a while, Cen Qing straightened up and smiled: "This is just a wisp of my divine sense, I am now in the grassland, in order to solve the problem of Mongolia's southern invasion." ”
Yue Lei was stunned.
Cen Qing continued to smile and stretched out his hand to the north: "The world is always like this, some people are willing to graze, some people are willing to hunt, and some people are willing to farm...... There is nothing wrong with this, but because I don't have enough gains, I want to rob others, which is obviously not correct, and I want to let them know what is right. ”
"Do you want to destroy the entire Mongolian tribe?" Although he understood that Cen Qing would not harm the Great Song Dynasty, Yue Lei was still a little uncomfortable, he felt that Cen Qing's strength should do something more accomplished, rather than blindly slaughtering.
"If you knew that I would become a butcher who destroyed the country in the future, would you have killed me directly?" Cen Qing did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
Yue Lei was silent for a moment and shook his head: "No, but I won't teach you marksmanship, but how to do what I think is right." ”
"We don't need to judge the other party for crimes that have not yet been committed, and there are two reasons for the destruction of the Jin country, the first is to make them atone for the evil deeds they have committed, and the second is that their country is too redundant in this land. Cen Qing said, "I'm on the grassland, just to do the same thing as you think." ”
Sweeping away the barbarism of heaven and earth is like eradicating illiteracy, and it does not necessarily have to kill the other person to do so.
"Hopefully you can do it. Yue Lei nodded slightly, not becoming humble because of Cen Qing's current strength, "I also hope that the Great Song Dynasty can put swords and guns into the warehouse as soon as possible and release Nanshan - because my original dream was to be a teacher in the academy." ”
......
At the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, another Cen Qing tilted his head to look at the plaque hanging with "Asking for a Son to Respond to the Spirit", but the incense snubbed the small temple with a lot of doors, and raised the corners of his mouth and sneered.
In Lin'an City, inside the Qingbo Gate, there was also Cen Qing who walked into the newly completed "Qingling Zhenyi Yuanjun Temple" in Shuangcha Lane with the flow of people, and raised his hand to stroke his forehead with a look that he couldn't bear to look at.
On Longhu Mountain, the third Cen Qing walked into the Dharma Interpretation Temple and said to the monks who were waiting for the battle: "I'm here to get my gun back." ”
In the mountains of the land of Yanyun, a white-robed girl walked to an altar on the top of the mountain, with a faint anger on her face, and after a while, the third Cen Qing landed on her side, patted her shoulder, and comforted her with the expression that she was about to cry, and then looked at the altar and shook her head with a wry smile.
"I didn't expect that the first thing I did when I came back was to start smashing temples everywhere. (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
