Chapter 344
At night, the entire royal city became extremely jubilant.
The rushing horses galloped amidst the whimpering wind, and the shouts of excited Tang soldiers spread with the wind, drifting towards the palace built of rammed earth and boulders.
Piles of bonfires stretched out around the outline of the inner city and outer city, forming a long dragon that reflected half of the sky red, and a large number of carts pulled wine and meat in and out, and sent them to the camps stationed around the royal city.
The women in ragged clothes were driven away by the whip, and they went to the camp crying. Among them were some young and beautiful women in luxurious furs. These were famous noble ladies or meritorious bloodlines in Tuyuhun. The arrogance of the past, in the face of the upcoming encounter, made a voice of begging.
Regarding this issue, Cheng Chumo had actually quarreled with Li Xian several times. As a peaceful and equal person, Li Xian was used to Li Xian. Even though he was somewhat repelled by such an approach, morality was the reason on the one hand, and on the other hand, such matters were somewhat cruel.
But to use Cheng Chumo's words, they are soldiers with some meat, and they are young people with blood, and if there is hatred, there must be a place to vent their anger.Instead of being a saint who swallows his anger, it's better to become a smooth swordsman who will get revenge.Especially in the long-term life of licking blood with the tip of a knife, without a kind of vent and enjoyment, maybe there will be regrets when he dies that day.
Li Xianshi knew it very well in his heart, not to mention that this was an ancient society where no one was as good as a bull, so he could simply turn a blind eye, as long as it wasn't too much.
Near the gate of the inner city, a clean area was swept out. The people who are good at dancing and the Xiqiang people who spoke with strong mountain sounds cooperated tacitly. The cheerful singing and dancing attracted applause from the surrounding soldiers who were eating meat.Some good people pushed the passing women into the circle and asked them to dance with the big man in front of the bonfire.
There were also soldiers with good relations who pushed the wounded soldiers out, handed out some wine to feed them, and put the freshly dripping beef and mutton on the bonfire to roast.And in some barracks, the anxious soldiers forcibly dragged the pretty-looking women into the tents, and the howling amidst the crying sound immediately became miserable.
The maid with the silver plate in her hand sent the freshest meat to the stone hall of the main hall. In the hall illuminated by torches, the generals under Li Xian's command and the generals and leaders of the Xiqiang people lined up from the stone steps in turn.
Li Xian, who was at the head of the hall, rested his hands casually on the soft armrests, leaned slightly on the big tiger leather chair behind him, looked around, and spoke with a smile.
"...The battle of Wangcheng, I originally thought it would take a long time to fight, but I never thought it would be so easy, and I didn't even waste my effort."
"Celebrate tonight, but the enemy has not been eliminated. Maybe the 20 Tuyuhun army is already near the city wall at this time, or the few soldiers on the front line are surrounded by these troops and are in danger of leaving the country."
"Thus, from today onwards, the gates of this big city must be guarded at all times. If Fu Yun wants to enter the city, he must exchange his head!"
The general under these remarks did not have the slightest objection, gnawing meat in his mouth, nodded slightly.
Li Xian patted the tiger skin on the armrest, took a piece of meat from the desk in front of him, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed slowly, pondered for a moment and continued.
"We have gone through many hardships along the way. Now that I close my eyes, I can still recall our soldiers gnawing grass roots, bloodstains from the corners of their mouths, and even those hysterical fights."
"This soldier suffered the least loss in the entire Tang Dynasty, and it was indeed the most serious loss among our tribe. Many soldiers died here."
Speaking of this, Li Xian had a look of solemnity on his face, and looked at the pair of eyes that had put down the food in the hall, and the eyes were a little sour.
"Those who died, although I can't remember their names, I know that they were originally members of our Tang Dynasty, and their loyal bones should be buried in their hometowns to protect their relatives in the village, rather than randomly Scattered on this exotic grassland."
"...I hope you can remember that today you survived by stepping on their bones. I also hope that the passing of these people can inform all the surrounding countries, from the emperor to the servants and beggars. Tell them that in the mountains and rivers In the beautiful, vast and abundant Datang, there are so many soldiers like this, who are continuously delivering fresh blood to the Tang Dynasty, and straighten the backbone of our young generation in the Tang Dynasty!"
In the hall, there was silence, many people bowed their heads and said nothing, and the atmosphere became solemn and low.
Li Xian expected that he said a few more words today, which made the generals a little heavy, his expression eased, and he waved his arms.
"I'm not going to preach today, but I want to tell you, don't forget the martyrs, comrades-in-arms! Don't forget the difficulty of struggling to get to this point in a few days."
After stopping his words, Li Xian continued after scanning the group of core generals who raised their heads again.
"The city has been captured, but the affairs in the city have not been settled. I would like to hear your opinions on how to deal with Wu Tan's highly respected generals, and how to deal with the people in the city who have not had time to evacuate."
"If you don't deal with these funeral affairs well, if you wait for the Tuyuhun army to return to the city, I'm afraid there will be big troubles in the future."
Qin Huaidao, who was seated at the head of the hall, picked up the leg of lamb on the plate again, tore a piece fiercely, and howled out while chewing.
"What else is there to say!"
"Anyone who can pick up a weapon is a pawn, let alone a pawn who leads the charge!"
"Those who refuse to accept will be beaten until they accept, and those who disobey will be killed directly! None of Wu Tan and his generals can escape!"
Cheng Chumo, who was sitting opposite, raised his head and looked over, with a look of admiration in his eyes, he raised his thumb to signal Qin Huaidao.
"Your kid finally said something tough, and it's comforting to listen to."
"A few years ago, Tuyuhun was capable of betraying our Tang Dynasty over and over again. For such half-hearted guys, he should be killed with one knife. Give them a lesson, so as to save us trouble and energy, go find some unlucky."
After listening to the two people's speeches, Jiang Tiyan frowned tightly, and after thinking about it, he slowly got up and saluted.
"Li Canjun, Wu Tan is a stubborn person. He has been at odds with Fu Yun over the years. It is his job to guard the imperial city."
"Can you..."
From the bottom of my heart, this upright general still won the favor of many people among the Xiqiang people, and even this Jiang Tiyan was considered one of them.
After all, this outstanding veteran is still at the mercy of others. In his heart, he still wants to win a sliver of life for him, or not to be humiliated too much, so as to preserve his reputation of working hard for a lifetime.
Before he finished speaking, Li Xian's face turned cold, and he interrupted Jiang Tiyan's words with a wave of his hand, lifted the cloak, and sat down with the golden knife on the horse.He looked over with burning eyes.
"There is no need to bring this up again."
"Even though these veterans guarding the imperial city did not commit heinous crimes on the frontier, the royal family is the royal family, and the responsibility for the crimes should be taken as a matter of course!~"
Seeing Jiang Tiyan lowering his body in trepidation, Li Xian's tone softened slightly.
"However, I can give him a decent death."
"Come on, bring it up!"
