"Do you know this weapon?"

Li Wenhao asked a man with a scimitar on his waist, a small shield on his leg, and a spear in his hand.

"Back to His Majesty!"

"The last general, the owl ghost army, the second-class cavalry soldier, Kou Zhanjiang!"

"There are 130 five thieves in the tent. In the fourth year of Zhenguan, he retired from active service due to injury. He has been in this Yanshan cemetery. If there is nothing to do, he will pick it up for the brothers."

"Back then, when His Majesty fought against the monster snake in that valley, General Mo was fortunate enough to be there!"

"Yes, they are all good men!"

Li Wenhao patted the shoulders of the people in front of him in relief.

They can also be supported by the imperial court. They have women, fields, and real estate. Their children can also receive preferential treatment from the imperial court, free reading, and so on.

However, they chose a very stupid approach in the eyes of others. They gave up the court's pension and chose to come here to accompany these brothers who died in battle to guard the tomb.

The food and salary received every month is only enough to eat, and the rest is handed over to the widows and orphans of those comrades-in-arms.

"Your Majesty, there is something I want to ask at the end."

"you say!"

Li Wenhao nodded, at this moment he is not the emperor, he is the leader of this group of people, the comrade-in-arms of everyone.

"I want to know, Your Majesty, in these battles with so many brothers, is it worth fighting, and is it worth dying?"

Li Wenhao and the others found a step and sat down, like old friends of Lajiachang, they all stared at Li Wenhao, waiting for Li Wenhao's reply.

"Is it worth it?"

"Of course it's worth it!"

"Look at the current Tang Dynasty. The people live and work in peace and contentment. The country is prosperous and the people are strong. Everyone has food to eat, clothes to wear, and books to read. Meat can only be eaten a few times a year before, but now they can eat whatever they want!"

"The family only has two sets of patched clothes and patched shoes every year. Look at it now?"

"We have quelled the barbarians all these years to make the people of our Tang Dynasty no longer suffer from the enemy's aggression!"

"We fight abroad to let those foreigners remember that Datang will always be their father!"

"The common people, merchants, and even beggars in my Tang Dynasty are all guests they need to treat with hospitality!"

"This is called status, the status between countries!"

"This kind of status can only be obtained by bloodshed, sacrifice, and war!"

"It's an honor, I did it, we did it!"

Li Wenhao said in a low voice.

Ten thousand bones will wither if one succeeds, but not only ten thousand bones will die once one succeeds?

If these soldiers don't even know what they are fighting for, how can they become an invincible army?

"Your Majesty, is it true?"

"I really want to go to a foreign place to see!"

"Hehe, there will be a chance!
Li Wenhao said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, don't lie to us. If we are wounded and disabled, going out is nothing but embarrassment to Datang!"

"No no no!"

Li Wenhao shook his head, and just about to say something, he suddenly laughed at himself.

It seems that this group of people really have no chance to go abroad to see. After he conquered Europe, in a broad sense, the world seems to be occupied by the Tang Dynasty. Not Tang Tu.

"Good brother, live well, you will have the opportunity to see a wider world!"

That night, Li Wenhao, Lu Wenzhao and others lived in Yanshan Cemetery.

At night, watching the will-o'-the-wisps flying in the cemetery, not only were the people not afraid, but they also had an inexplicable kindness.

"Fourth Li, you haven't slept!"

"You know that His Majesty is coming today, have you all come to pay homage to His Majesty?"

Tears flowed out of his eyes unconsciously, Li Wenhao wiped his eyes, and waved at those will-o'-the-wisps.

"Brothers, sleep well, sleep well, Datang is fine, Datang is not only fine, but also very prosperous!"

As if hearing Li Wenhao's inspiration, these will-o'-the-wisps really slowly disappeared.

A few days later, on the [-]th day of the seventh lunar month, the Yanshan Festival will be held.

Li Wenhao stood at the foot of the mountain, and the first echelon behind him were those soldiers who were seriously injured and retired.

Wearing the battle armor he wore when he first joined the army, Li Wenhao stood at the front, facing the steps of Yanshan Cemetery, and knelt on the ground with one knee.

"His Majesty!"

Everyone exclaimed, what is Li Wenhao?
is the emperor!
The emperor can kneel to the sky, kneel to the ground, kneel to his parents, how can he kneel to these dead souls?

"To shut up!"

"If there were no brothers who died in battle, where would we be in the Tang Dynasty today?"

"Today, my first obeisance is to thank these brothers. No matter when and where, they will never leave me. Believe me, even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, thousands of troops will never say a single retreat!"

"I kneel this time on behalf of the people of the world, thanking these brothers who died in battle!"

After getting up, Li Wenhao led the large team directly to the square of Yanshan Cemetery, where a huge stone monument stood.

On it are the three characters Li Wenhao personally inscribed on the tablet of heroic spirits.

Under the Heroic Monument, there are broken weapons and broken battle armor.

These are the relics left by the soldiers who died in battle.

It is also the inheritance of the military soul of the Tang Dynasty.

Then, there is wine, a mountain of wine.

Li Wenhao picked up a jar of spirits, drank heavily at first, and then poured the rest of the wine on the Heroic Monument.

"brothers!"

"I'm here, I, Li Wenhao, am here!"

"Back when I first came to Yandi, I was just a child. After a while, it was too late, and we were separated forever!"

"Today, my Tang Dynasty is rich and the people are strong, the world is peaceful, Haiyan and Heqing, I finally have the face to come here to toast you a glass of wine."

"It is said that the land of Yanzhao is so generous and heroic. Today, I wonder if I, Li Wenhao, are qualified to drink a bottle of wine with you?"

After speaking, two lines of tears flowed down Li Wenhao's face.

"I'm sorry brothers!"

"Back then, before the war, I promised my brothers that after the victory, we would drink wine and eat meat together!"

"But this wine and meat, how many brothers are there, until now..."

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"

The people below said in unison.

"take care?"

"I'm in good health. I'm invincible in the world. I have unmatched courage. I have never been defeated in the battlefield. I have killed countless generals and captured countless flags. Jieli's hundreds of thousands of troops can't do anything against me. How can there be problems with my health? ?”

Li Wenhao yelled all his life, and due to his nature, he threw the helmet on his head aside, and his long hair swayed like he was rushing into battle when he was young.

"Owl Ghost Army!"

"exist!"

"White Horse Camp!"

"exist!"

"Do not retreat!"

"exist!"

"Trapped in camp"

"exist!"

"Tiger and Leopard Ride!"

"exist"

……

Every time Li Wenhao yelled, some physically handicapped veterans stood up holding wine jars, so the scene was like an order of soldiers on the battlefield.

"it is good!"

"it is good!"

"My great Tang elite are all here, even in the underworld, they are invincible!"

"Invincible!"

"To be a hero in life, to be a hero in death!"

"My brother Li Wenhao, it should be like this!"

"drink!"

Li Wenhao picked up the wine jar and drank it down again.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites who followed Li Wenhao up the mountain felt that their worldview had been subverted. Is this a sacrifice?
It's just a big booze scene, okay?
However, why is there no sense of disobedience at all, but everyone feels excited?

"Your Majesty, you are a little drunk!"

"No……"

Li Wenhao pushed away Lu Wenzhao who came to help him.

"brothers!"

"Today's glass of wine, I don't respect the sky, the ground, and our brothers!"

"It's Li Wenhao's enemy, my Tang Dynasty's enemy, our common enemy!"

"It's them who made your bodies mutilated. It's them who let our brothers rest in the ground. Similarly, it's them who let us make great achievements and make us famous!"

"This first mouthful, I respect you, the former kings of Qi, Li Yuanji, Liu Heita, and Meng Haigong!"

"If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have established the Owl Ghost Army. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have brought our brothers to the world so early to become famous!"

"They are the ones who have strengthened my determination to calm down the world and return the common people to a bright future!"

"drink!"

"For the second mouthful, I want to respect Jieli, the Great Khan of the Eastern Turks, Si Yehu, the Great Khan of the Western Turks, Qibi Heli, the lost bowl, the lost barbarians, and the prairie wolves!"

"Without tempering like a raging fire, we would not have the invincible army of the Tang Dynasty, and there would be no unyielding spirit of the Tang Dynasty!"

"This third mouth, I respect the five surnames and Qiwang back then, and respect the twelve generals of the Eight Pillar Kingdom in those years!"

"If it weren't for them, I wouldn't know what suffering in the world is, what it means to be a family, and what is a poor family!"

"I thank them for ordinary people all over the world!"

"The rest of the wine is toast to all my enemies over the years, some Yu Juluo who almost killed me, and the left wheel who almost killed the late emperor..."

One enemy after another spoke out from Li Wenhao's mouth. Although everyone is a genius and powerful, they have all turned into corpses now, and they can't even find a place to bury their bones.

"brothers!"

"The next drink is for our warriors of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Respect to those brothers who are buried in Yanshan!"

"I, Li Wenhao, would rather Yanshan never add new graves, but this world is far from the peace we want. In places that ordinary people can't see, it is these good people who throw their heads and sprinkle their blood that make me grow up." Tang's stability and peace!"

"Dry!"

Gudong!Gudong!
Li Wenhao gulped down again. At this time, his eyes were a little blurred, but he still stood there, and the veterans below and the ministers who participated in the sacrifice had already burst into tears.

There is a saying that goes well, the premise of a quiet time is that someone is carrying the weight forward.

"Here's a glass of wine, to respect the brothers who are fighting outside!"

"I respect Cao Mengde's tiger and leopard cavalry, Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning iron cavalry, Bai Qi's sharp warrior, Zhou Yu, Qi Jiguang, Zheng He's invincible navy, Xu Da's infantry armor..."

Li Wenhao finished his drink in another big gulp, at this time he was completely drunk.

Although the alcohol of this era is not as high as later generations, it cannot hold up to a large quantity!
"This last glass of wine, to us, to our living people."

"Each of us does not live for ourselves. We want to take a look at the great rivers and mountains of my Tang Dynasty for those brothers who died, and experience the beautiful life we ​​built with our hands!"

"Brothers, promise me, live well..."

After finishing speaking, Li Wenhao suddenly felt the world spinning around his eyes, and he completely lost consciousness when he heard Lu Wenzhao yell...

When I woke up again, it was already three days later.

"Damn it, you're out of temper!"

Rubbing his head, Li Wenhao complained feebly.
