10. My dream
At this time, Yanjing City had already been martial law, and the entire Yanjing City had almost become a barracks. The streets were full of soldiers and pedestrians were restricted from traveling.
There were tens of thousands of cavalry racing in the official road in Yanjing City. These were cavalrymen who set out to rescue Shanhaiguan in advance. They were led by Li Cheng, the commander of the Northern Army. They were 30,000 people, one man and two horses, all wearing black armor.
The pedestrians next to the official road were solemnly commenting on the speeding cavalry.
Pedestrian A said, "I'm afraid I'm going to fight again."
After hearing this, the pedestrian B said, "I'm afraid that this is the case. I'm afraid that the Mongols will invade. I wonder how many people will die?"
But pedestrian C said loudly: "I'm afraid of a ball, I'm just a Mongolian. I miss my northern man, and I die while standing!"
The traveler Ding Yi said with agreement: "Good man, if Your Majesty ordered the troops to summon troops, I will go. Maybe I will get a title in this life."
...
At this time, in Yanjing City, from high-ranking officials to peddlers and pawns, there were discussions everywhere.
...
At this time, Zheng Wen was wearing a black armor and a sword hanging on his waist. He was standing on the palace city. From a distance, he saw a northern armor soldier. Of course, he should not walk around.
Below the palace city is a huge square, and above it, there are 170,000 soldiers gathered. They are covered in black armor and holding various weapons in their hands, standing one after another on the square, silently standing.
They are the soldiers who are about to go on a war to rescue Shanhaiguan.
Zheng Wen stood on the palace wall, looked at them, and then said, "Soldiers, brothers, I am your new emperor. I am eighteen years old this year. I am a lame man. I have just ascended the throne. Last night, I received the emergency military information from the Mongolian Khan Kublai Khan, who led a 300,000 army to attack Shanhaiguan. I have not been asleep all night and have thought about it."
"I am afraid that Shanhaiguan will be broken, I am afraid that the northern part will be displaced, I am afraid that Yanjing will be broken, I am afraid that the Daqian country will be broken, and at the same time, I am afraid that death will befall me. However, I am not willing to fight this war, but the genes of Emperor Taizu's belligerent flowing in my blood, which does not allow me to retreat. This is the pride of my Daqian royal family!"
"I am a lame man. I may not be able to go to the battlefield in this life. Moreover, I know that Kublai Khan attacked Shanhaiguan to deceive me for being young, I just ascended the throne, and I am a lame man, but I am disabled and strong in my heart. I am also a proud person in my bones."
"So, I decided to send 200,000 Yanjing troops to rescue Shanhaiguan, and then mobilize 300,000 Hebei troops to support Shanhaiguan. I have issued an order to mobilize all the soldiers and horses in the north. I want to compete with Kublai Khan in Shanhaiguan! I want to tell him that I am not so easy to bully! I want to tell him that my men in the north are not so easy to bully! I want to tell him that my bravery is not so easy to bully! I want to tell him that my men in the north are brave!"
"And you are the 200,000 troops who support Shanhaiguan in advance. I know that I don't know how many of you will die for this! I also know that there are countless fathers in the north who will lose their good sons, many children who will lose their good fathers, and many women who will lose their good husbands!"
"But I still want to tell you that you will die. As men from the north, soldiers in armor, soldiers of Daqian, and corpses, you are the highest honor!"
"I also want to tell you that I want to establish a Daqian Yinglie Pavilion. In the future, soldiers who die for the country will be enshrined in it and sacrificed by the royal family!"
"I want to tell you that I have prepared the rewards. I will wait for you to come and take away the one that belongs to you!"
"What I want to tell you is that I am a lame man, I am afraid I will not be able to go to the battlefield in this life. I want to ask you to help me see. Moreover, as the emperor and the representative of the great work, I would like to express my gratitude to you! In the past three hundred years of the founding of the country, you soldiers have made silent efforts, defending the border, defending the royal family, and defending the great work. You are the most lovely people in the great work. As the emperor, I would like to express my gratitude to you, thank you! Thank you for your efforts, thank you for your sacrifice!"
After Zheng Wen finished speaking, he stood on the city wall and bowed deeply to the bottom.
The soldiers below were red, their eyes were filled with tears, and they wished they could roar. Even the old general Wu Yong was also.
This is the simplest and most sincere words the emperor has ever said to them in the past three hundred years since the founding of Dakan, but it is also the words that touched them the most!
But they still stood there motionless, because they were the most elite soldiers in the big fight, and their pride did not allow them to have any movements!
Zheng Wen looked at it and continued, "Although I cannot go with you, today, here, I will swear to the sky, and I will tell the people of the world that from today on, I will not be able to marry each other, not cede land, not pay compensation, the emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies in the country!"
"I'm with you!"
After hearing this, the 170,000 soldiers below were shocked and shouted together: "Don't marry, do not cede land, do not pay compensation, the emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies in the country!"
"If you don't marry, you won't cede land, you won't pay compensation. The emperor will guard the country's borders, and the king will die in the country!"
"If you don't marry, you won't cede land, you won't pay compensation. The emperor will guard the country's borders, and the king will die in the country!"
With Zheng Wen's roar, a shaking response suddenly sounded under the city, reaching the sky and shaking the earth.
Zheng Wen raised his hands and slowed downwards, and suddenly there was silence under the city.
Zheng Wen shouted, "I have a dream. I hope that one day, where the solar energy shines, it will be done with great efforts!"
"I hope one day, the dragon flag of hard work will fly all over the world!"
"I hope that one day the sword in your hands will gain more land for the big plow!"
...
"At the end, let's sing an ancient military song together as an oath to go to war!"
"Fight hard and go to the national crisis together.
The blood will not flow dry, and the battle will never stop!
…”
"Go to the battle!" Zheng Wen drew his sword and pointed it straight at the sky.
The soldiers under the city sang together:
"Fight hard and go to the national crisis together.
The blood will not flow dry, and the battle will never stop!
…”
With this singing, Gan Jun stepped out of the square one by one, headed towards the road to war, walked out of Yanjing City, headed towards Shanhaiguan, and headed towards death!
Zheng Wen stood on the palace wall and watched quietly, watching the black queue disappearing in his eyes, leaving only the faint light emitted by the sun shining on the black iron armor.
At this time, I heard a huge roar from Yanjing City:
"Fight hard and go to the national crisis together.
The blood will not flow dry, and the battle will never stop!
…”
This is the singing of the elders of Yanjing City. This sound shakes the sky and shakes the world! This is the elders and fellow villagers in my hometown who are seeing off their soldiers on the expedition!
When Zheng Wen heard this, he had the idea of "people's hearts are available" in his heart.
Zheng Wen looked at the gradually moving away army, looking at the direction of the army's going away, and was in a daze.
After today's incident, Zheng Wen almost mastered the morale of the army!
There is an old saying that you should recommend food and take off your clothes and wear them!
This is what Zheng Wen did today, giving them respect, narrowing their distance, promising them to reward, and telling them the future of following them. When these are fulfilled one by one, they become their solid foundation and they can point to wherever they can.
Next, I served as the Privy Councilor to mobilize the Hebei garrison and gathered in Yanjing City. I must have more contact with these troops and care about my well-being, so that I can firmly grasp the military power.
As for the regime, Zheng Wen had no choice. After all, from a poor and innocent prince, he was able to firmly grasp the military power of the capital and mobilize the troops in the north in less than a month. Zheng Wen believed that this emperor was qualified to do this.
...
At this time, the envoy from the court was rushing to Dakan with Zheng Wen’s edict. The river was in full bloom!
News of the Mongols attacking Shanhaiguan had already spread throughout the capital. The governments in the capital and surrounding areas began to organize civil servants, and the material warehouses in Yanjing and surrounding areas were opened one by one. Food, arrows, tinctures and other materials began to be loaded into the vehicle and moved towards Shanhaiguan.
...
Zheng Wen's speech to the soldiers in the palace today was constantly spread among the soldiers as these reinforcements to Shanhaiguan, and then spread to the entire border army, then to the entire northern garrison, and then to the entire north, and then to the south with the merchants from the north. A year later, the entire Dagan knew about it, and a strong desire to fight for martial arts arises among the people, thus allowing all Dagans to re-recognize the ambitions of this lame emperor!
As a result, in just over a year, Zheng Wen completely took the military power to do a big move!
Later, Zheng Wen carried out several reforms, and the civil resistance was very small. Zheng Wen's reform went smoothly overall!
Because doing big things requires a monarch who is enterprising and talented and strategic. He has been building a country for three hundred years. Except for Emperor Taizu, who is a martial emperor, no one else is considered a monarch who is talented and strategic. Unfortunately, he died too early. Looking at the history of doing big things for more than 300 years, the overall strategy is conservative and self-confidence. Although the national strength is much stronger than that of the surrounding small countries and forces, it has not achieved the point of "the whole world is the king's land, the shores of the soldiers, and the ministers are the king's ministers"!
Overall, people who work hard are not satisfied with it. Whether it is the common people, aristocratic families, nobles, local officials, or officials of the court, they all yearn for a great and talented king, leading them to beat the whole world and restore the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties. After all, they are descendants of the Han and Tang Dynasties. They hope to achieve or even surpass the achievements of the Han and Tang Dynasties. They hope that one day the people outside the region call them "killers"!
Of course, Zheng Wen didn't know at this time, but he realized it after being the emperor for a long time, and realized the stubbornness in the hearts of the big-killer!
Only then did I understand the stupidity of being a big shot, but it was the stupidity of being a big shot. With Zheng Wen's guidance, the talent of being a world-leading technology has created the world-leading technology. Only those who work have occupied most of the world, and those who work have created the largest and greatest world-class empire in history!
