Chapter 1927 Farewell and Triumph!
There was a long distance between the East and the West. Before this, the surrounding countries had limited knowledge of the Tang Dynasty. Many people had not even heard of the Tang Dynasty, and many of them had followed Dashi to participate in the Northwest War.
But it was this battle that made all the countries around Dashi deeply aware of the power of the Tang Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty only used a small number of troops to defeat Dashi with an overwhelming force. It became famous and powerful in the eyes of other countries. The arrogant Dashi Empire laid waste to millions of corpses in the eastern world. The whole land was like Shura Hell, which shocked all the countries in the Western Region deeply.
In particular, Wang Chong, as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern World, became a mythical being in the entire Eastern World after killing Gu Taibai and the High Priest.
More importantly, although they defeated Dashi and occupied Baghdad, the style of the Tang people was completely different from that of Dashi, and they were far less cruel and ruthless than Dashi.
At least the Tang people didn't massacre the city!
In contrast, the countries were obviously willing to follow an empire as powerful and powerful as the Tang Dynasty, but much more tolerant.
Wang Chong received the various countries as the Great Protector of the Nine Provinces, received the credentials of the various countries, and quickly arrived at the apse.
"Have all the court officials arrived?"
In the back hall, Wang Chong took off his bright red court uniform and put on his casual clothes, looking at Zhang Que beside him.
"Hui Wangye, everyone has arrived! This time, it was drawn up by the officials and appointed by the Holy Emperor. Everyone was carefully selected and they are all good at governance. Moreover, they have basically learned some great food words. In addition, The imperial court also sent many translators who knew the language of Dashi, including Confucian scholars, to come together for Dashi."
Zhang Que said.
Military generals are good at conquering battlefields and conquering cities and territories, but city management and regional governance require great patience and long-term efforts. Therefore, a long time ago, Wang Chong requested the imperial court to send civilian officials to assist in management.
Now, before Wang Chong returned to the capital, all the civil servants finally arrived.
"Sir, we will set off in a moment. Do we need to inform Master Zhangchou and the others?"
Zhang Que said.
"No need. I've already informed them."
Wang Chong said calmly.
Before Wang Chong returned to the capital, the six giants had already discussed that two imperial generals, Gao Xianzhi and An Sishun, would be stationed and rule the entire Dashi. General Tongluo Albus would lead 20,000 Luo Tongluo Jingqi to assist him. Deal with those rebellious and unwilling Dashi militiamen.
Wang Chong was the first to return to the capital, and after everything was settled in Dashi and he slowly surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, Zhangchou Jianqiong and others left later.
But the two imperial generals Gao Xianzhi and An Sishun must stay in Dashi.
"Report! Your Excellency, Shaozhang Counselor Li Junxian is outside asking for an audience."
While the two were talking, suddenly, a valet beside Wang Chong walked in, knelt down on one knee and said.
In one sentence, both of them looked over.
"Let him in!"
Wang Chong said.
Since defeating Dashi, Li Junxian and everyone in the Confucian sect have kept a very low profile. Even Wang Chong rarely sees him. In addition, Wang Chong is surrounded by many worldly things, and Wang Chong has no time to pay attention to them for a while.
I just didn't expect that when I was about to return to Beijing, he would come to visit me first.
Just a moment,
Li Junxian, dressed in Confucian uniform, walked in from outside.
After experiencing successive battles, Li Junxian no longer looked like the elegant, handsome, uninhibited, and handsome young master he once was. He became much thinner and haggard, but also much energetic.
"Brother Li!"
Wang Chong was the first to speak.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Junxian returned the salute respectfully, bowed and said:
"I came here specifically to send the prince back to the capital. I would like to thank the prince for not giving up and giving Li Junxian and the Confucian sect a chance to make up for their mistakes."
When Li Junxian said these words, his words were sincere and seemed to have deep meaning.
"What? Aren't you going back to the capital?"
Wang Chong frowned and immediately felt something.
Li Junxian disappeared during this period. Wang Chong originally thought that he was planning to rebuild the schools that were destroyed by the Great Eclipse, and then return to the capital with him after everything was completed.
But now it seems that Li Junxian has no intention of returning to China.
"No."
Li Junxian shook his head and smiled, with some complexity in his smile.
"We, the Confucian sect, made such a big mistake and almost brought down hundreds of millions of people in the world. We have no face to return to China."
Li Junxian said, feeling slightly bitter.
"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good. If Brother Li is because of this incident, there is no need to do it. Life is unpredictable, who can avoid making mistakes? Moreover, the Confucian sect also made up for the mistakes it made with its own actions. The battle in the northwest, If you Confucian sect hadn’t sacrificed your lives and tried your best to stop him, I’m afraid the Chinese army would have collapsed, allowing Gu Taibai to succeed.”
Wang Chong said.
At the height of the Battle of the Northwest, Wang Chong was trapped by the High Priest in the Sea of Forbidden Arts, but the battlefield was already extremely dangerous. The Central Army where the Kowloon Legion was located was about to be outflanked, and was completely defeated by the Great Eater. If Confucianism and Li Junxian had not sacrificed their lives and fought desperately, the consequences would have been disastrous.
"And the most important thing is that we won this battle. I believe that everyone who knows the details of that battle will welcome Confucianism as a hero."
Wang Chong said.
"Haha, Your Majesty, there is no need to comfort me. Even if our Confucian sect goes back as heroes, even if we gain the respect and admiration of everyone, deep down in my heart, I still cannot forgive myself."
"Once a mistake is made, it is made, and it cannot be changed. Those innocent people in the border incident, as well as the uncles and elders who were killed by Dashi, all are because of my mistakes. This is unforgivable."
"As for this battle, the reason why we were able to win the final victory was not because of our Confucian sect, but because of you, the prince! If it weren't for the prince, the mistakes we made would have been irreparable."
"For Confucianism and I, from the moment we left the capital, we were not prepared to go back. This is our journey of atonement, and everything has just begun."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. As long as the Tang Dynasty is in trouble, Confucianism will definitely appear again. And if Your Majesty is in trouble, I, Li Junxian, will definitely come back!"
Li Junxian said solemnly.
Wang Chong looked at the determination in Li Junxian's eyes and felt the determination in his and the Confucian sect's hearts. He was filled with emotion and knew that no matter what he said, it would be impossible to make them change their minds.
"Brother Li, take care!"
Thousands of words turned into just four words.
Li Junxian left quickly.
Wang Chong watched him leave, slowly withdrew his gaze, and then looked into the distance, looking at this strange world and country, stunned for a long time, motionless, no one knew what he was thinking.
soon--
"Go back to Beijing!"
Following Wang Chong's order, the entire city of Baghdad began to spin.
In just a moment, Wang Chong boarded the carriage and led a mighty army of more than 100,000 people, leaving Dashi and heading towards the capital.
…
Half a month later, the Tang Dynasty capital.
boom!
With a roar of steel, the huge city gate burst open, and at the same time, a voice echoed through the capital.
"King of Foreign Land!"
"The foreign king has triumphed!"
Following that excited voice, it was like a huge stone falling, and with a bang, it immediately caused huge waves in the entire capital.
In the capital, countless people surged out from various restaurants, teahouses, and houses, and all rushed to the west gate.
The entire city gate was crowded with people.
"Where is the foreign king? Where is he?"
"Our heroes of the Tang Dynasty are finally coming back!"
"It's been a long time and it's finally here! Son, daddy will take you to see Big Hero!"
"Haha, King of Foreign Land, I have long said that the prince will definitely win, how about it? I am right! Everyone has got the fireworks, and when I give the order, set off the fireworks immediately!"
"Hahaha, give way to those in front, don't block me from seeing the King of Foreign Lands!"
…
The crowd was lively and lively, almost more excited than a festival. Women, the elderly, and children all had smiles on their faces and joy from the bottom of their hearts. In addition, there were many young girls waiting for marriage among the crowd.
"Where is the King of Foreign Lands? Let me see!"
A young girl who has just discovered her love is shy and happy at the same time.
Everyone knows that the king of the foreign land has not married yet. Such a great hero is young, handsome and heroic. What girl wouldn't like him?
"clang!"
At the same time, in the capital, as a clear bell rang, countless civil servants and generals with sharp eyes rushed toward the west of the city.
"Let's go! Let's go quickly! The king of foreign lands is coming soon!"
"What? Wait for me, my boots fell off! Let's go together!"
"It's finally here, so fast! But haha, our heroes of the Tang Dynasty are finally coming back!"
…
Countless officials rode on carriages and headed toward the west of the city.
The battle between civil and military forces, the battle between soldiers and Confucianism, had long been wiped out in the Battle of the Northwest. All those who came back from the west of Congling were heroes of the Tang Dynasty. And Wang Chong is a well-deserved hero in everyone's hearts.
He led the Tang army and saved the Tang Dynasty again.
In hindsight, the humiliation Wang Chong suffered during the previous war between soldiers and scholars only made everyone respect him more.
In this era, there is such a person. No matter where the empire is in danger, he is always the first to appear on the front line and turn the tide to resolve the danger for the empire. This is the luck of everyone in this era.
Moreover, this man also successfully rewrote the impression of war in everyone's mind.
Throughout the dynasties, no matter how wise the monarch was, as long as there was war, it would be a disaster for the people of the world. War not only causes huge harm, but also wastes money and becomes a heavy burden on the people of the world.
But the war under Wang Chong's leadership was completely different.
Five billion gold had already been transported back to the capital. This incident caused a sensation in the capital and the entire world.
