Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Everyone listened quietly, but at the beginning, they probably figured it out a little bit. This is to increase the treatment of the Fubing. After all, the current Fubing in Datang can be said to have almost no treatment, mainly from the Fubing family. It's just Yongyetian.

"The morale is made up of different parts. The upper limit of morale is influenced by many factors, such as winning a battle, such as an excellent general, but the lower limit of morale is always determined by honor! Responsibility! The righteousness of the family and the country! Do you have any objections? " Li Ke asked.

"No, Your Highness is right." Cheng Yaojin cheered at the bottom.

Everyone was too lazy to talk to him, Fang Xuanling stood up and said: "What His Highness said is that we should educate these soldiers, let them understand what is honor, what is responsibility, what is the righteousness of family and country, right? ?”

"Yes, not right." Li Ke nodded, then shook his head again.

"Right means that we really want to guide, educate them, and let them understand these principles, but what is wrong means that we can't just talk about it without doing it. I hate drawing cakes for others and can't see the real thing. , what's the point of just playing lip service." Li Ke said nonchalantly.

All the ministers are extremely speechless, so what you said when you went to court last time, isn't it just drawing cakes for us?Did we see something practical?No or no?Emotional other people's cakes are cakes, and your cakes are not cakes, right?

Li Ke didn't bother to pay attention to their thoughts, but said to himself: "So, we need to let these soldiers see real things, we need to see the imperial court's policies towards them, so as to increase their sense of honor and responsibility. "

"So, I propose that the Datang court issue a document to establish the Datang National Martyrs Cemetery. I don't need to tell you what the word "martyr" means. In the Tang Dynasty, the government soldiers, Wuhou, unscrupulous people, government servants, etc. who died in charge of the security of the territory of the Tang Dynasty should be respected as martyrs."

"All these people can enter the Datang National Martyrs Cemetery, and in each province of the Datang, each prefecture will set up related martyrs' cemeteries! The martyrs' cemetery does not distinguish between generals and ordinary soldiers. Anyone who enters the martyrs' cemetery is a major contribution to the Great Tang. Contributors! Every major festival, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will lead the civil and military officials of the court to worship!"

As soon as Li Ke's words came out, all the ministers couldn't help but gasp, this move... how did His Highness come up with it, it's too cruel!Once this martyr's cemetery is released, the treatment... is even more high-end than Zhaoling!Worship in the name of the country!What concept? !

"By the way, where is the owner of the Hongwen Museum?" Li Ke said.

"The minister is here." Chu Suiliang, the historian in charge of recording, stood up and said.

Li Ke was a little surprised, did Chu Suiliang take over the post of head of the Hongwen Museum?

"You wrote the Hongwen Museum to explain the word 'sacrifice'. The term "sacrifice" is a description of the death of cattle and sheep used in sacrifices from the Zhou, Shang, Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods. It entrusts people's yearning for a better life, their reverence and respect for the heaven and earth, and it is also people's beliefs. Therefore, from now on, the term "sacrifice" in the Tang Dynasty is exclusively used for people who died for righteousness and faith." Li Ke said road.

"Yes." Chu Suiliang paused, His Highness's explanation made sense.

The other ministers had no objection, not even a critic like Wei Zheng jumped out to restrict Li Ke's behavior of interpreting old words with new meanings.

Li Jing and other generals were extremely excited, because they are also soldiers. To put it inappropriately, if these meritorious generals die, they will be buried with Zhaoling and other royal tombs. This is the highest honor in the past. But now...they suddenly feel that it seems a bit unsavory, this martyr's cemetery...seems to be a better place to live.

"Do you have any opinions?" Li Ke asked with a smile.

As soon as Li Ke said this, Wenchen didn't say anything, Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde stood up first on the military commander's side, they didn't speak, and stared at Wenchen with big eyes. On the other side, I have the urge to beat someone up in court even if anyone dares to object.

Although the other generals are not as obvious as these two reckless men, their vague eyes clearly show that if you dare to object, we will not stop dying.

Can these generals not be excited?What His Highness talked to them before, obviously this is the follow-up strategy!This is the highest honor of being a soldier, who the hell dares to object!

"I have no objection." Fang Xuanling said openly, "We are in the situation we are in today. These soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country paid the price with their lives. This is the honor they deserve."

Lao Fang used all the right words, and they changed them quickly enough.

"The ministers have no objections." The other civil servants also agreed.

"Well, since the first one has no objection, then you must also have the second one. Of course, this matter has nothing to do with civil servants, but mainly with military generals. From today onwards, you have to tell all the soldiers under your command except me. These, instill a concept. Those who died in the battle will one day! We will let their souls return to their hometowns!"

"I know that now the bodies of soldiers who died in the front line of the Tang Dynasty are cremated, and then their ashes are brought back in clay pots."

"But sometimes due to combat and other reasons, there are soldiers who have no time and no chance to bring back the corpses, so they can only be buried on the spot."

"In the future, these corpses that are buried on the spot must remember their location and leave a mark. If there is a chance in the future, their bones will definitely be brought back." Li Ke said.

"Yes!" All the generals said in unison.The civil burials in the Tang Dynasty were naturally buried, but the corpses of soldiers on the battlefield were cremated directly to prevent plague and so on.In the past, if the Tang army had the conditions, it would also bring back the ashes of the soldiers' corpses in clay pots.

"Your Highness, I have a problem." Among the crowd, Minister of Rites Dou Lukuan stood up and said.

"Mr. Rui, please tell me." Li Ke nodded and said.

"The issue of burial in the Martyrs Cemetery, if all burials are in coffins, no matter how big the area is, the Martyrs Cemetery will inevitably be full one day. How should I deal with it then? Although I may not need to consider this issue in the future, I can't blindly expand it. The area of ​​the martyrs' cemetery." Dou Lukuan was thinking about his Ministry of Rites.

"The martyrs' cemetery is all cremated, and the ashes are placed in porcelain urns. If the dead martyrs cannot be found, they will be buried in the form of clothes and crowns." Li Ke said.

"But for cremation, if the folks had a choice... they wouldn't choose cremation." Dou Lukuan hesitated.
