Chapter 944
Luoyang.
It has been more than half a month since the Li Tang army entered Luoyang City, Yuchi Jingde and Wang Junkuo, and the generals of Dazhi have a good rest and rest in Luoyang before attacking.
It is a great possibility that they could win this giant symbolizing the authority of China, which they had never imagined before but were still eagerly expected. Now they have easily realized some of it. In the beginning, Chi Jingde thought there would be a fierce street fighting or a riot of the riots of the Chinese military and people. This is very likely. Li Tangjun once made various strategies against these possibilities. However, all measures were not needed.
Although the people of Luoyang who stayed did not look very good at the arrival of Li Tangjun, there was no sign of resistance. On the contrary, many of them were afraid and uneasy. Although Li Tangjun posted notices many times to express his kindness, these people were always numb and sceptical and looked at the notice and left silently.
If there is no need to go out on the street, you can't see a strolling person.
Everyone was shivering on the street, shrunk and bowing their heads and walking away.
Luoyang, which was once lively and glorious, has almost become a dead city. A depressing atmosphere enveloped the whole city. It makes people breathless. There are no laughter and laughter. There are no noisy and lively morning sessions. There are no loud and loud small merchants. There are no longer old people walking and Tong Fei who read in the morning. There are no longer soldiers walking together to face the sun...
Luoyang is still the same Luoyang. But now Luoyang is no longer the same Luoyang as before...
Only those who stayed there realized a fact that Luoyang was not prosperous because of Luoyang people, but because of the Chinese army but because of King Xu Sheng.
Because of his existence, Luoyang is unique.
Without the existence of King Xu Sheng and the Chinese Army, Luoyang is no different from all the cities in the world.
Luoyang people who firmly support the Chinese army and are determined to follow King Xu Sheng have left. They have brought the excitement and prosperity of Luoyang to bring the vitality and vitality of Luoyang. Now many Luoyang people regret why they did not leave like those people. Why did they stay in this spiritually desolate Luoyang land because of money.
Happiness, safety, pride, and you can’t buy any amount of money or money for gold or silver.
After entering Luoyang, Li Tang's army suddenly felt tired, and even many generals felt it from the bottom of their hearts. They fought hard for many days and bleeded and sacrificed for many days. I wanted to capture Luoyang by the fierce Chinese army to seize the world's largest city.
At Fengling Ferry, the Chinese army was like a wounded tiger, although they were covered in bruises, but everyone in the Li Tang army gritted their teeth to knock them down. At that moment, everyone in the Li Tang army was very proud.
The invincible Chinese army in the world allowed itself to defeat! What a honor, how proud and how proud! Along the way, the Li Tang army rushed to Luoyang City without stopping, there were only three thousand soldiers standing outside the city waiting for them to defend without occupying the city. Although Luoyang is the highest and majestic world city in the world, the most easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Li Tang army's Luoyang City is not as good as the half-man-deep earth trench dug on the ground in the eyes of the Chinese army soldiers.
The opponents of Luoyang City whom they dreamed of capturing felt that they were not even worth defending. They would rather face the most powerful Xuanjia Hu Ben outside the city facing the bloody battle of rushing than standing on the top of the city to shoot arrows to resist the attack of the Li Tang army. Although as long as they defended at the top of the Luoyang City, even if they did not defend against the Li Tang army, it would take several days to prepare to attack.
But there were no soldiers from the Chinese Army... The Luoyang capital that all the generals of Li Tang were most eager to capture was just a city that could be abandoned in the hearts of the Chinese Army's soldiers.
The only thing that blocked the Li Tang army was a loyal Chinese army city gate soldier.
What made Li Tang soldiers feel humiliated was that the city gate soldier did not attack or defend without defending his opponents, and he did not fight back. He was just loyal to his duties, and perhaps putting him in any city in the world would do the same thing instead of Luoyang behind him.
All the people following the Chinese army in Luoyang City left.
They took away the soul and vitality of the entire Luoyang without them. The people who stayed behind were like walking corpses. When Li Tang soldiers saw these people, they suddenly understood why the soldiers of the Chinese army did not stand on the top of the city to defend and dig a few small trenches outside the city to fight.
Because the people of Luoyang who stayed are not worth bleed for them or sacrificed for them.
Chinese soldiers can die in battle. Chinese soldiers can die. But their blood will not shed for traitors or abandon their own people... The soldiers of the Chinese army are so proud!
When Li Tang soldiers were receiving everything from the Chinese army, they found that the Chinese army had taken nothing away.
There are actually piles of allocated gold and silver in the treasury. It indicates which gold and silver are used for celebrations in Luoyang, which gold and silver are used for relief of the people, which gold and silver are used for the construction of the school's Yishe, which gold and silver are used for subsidies for renting carriages and ships when necessary. What gold and silver are used for prevention of natural disasters and man-made disasters... Updates are faster, and the full text reads will make you clear!... Looking at the warehouse of gold and silver, watching the actions of Li Tang soldiers, watching the panting and scolding like wild animals, and snatching each other, and robbing each other, watching the contemptuous eyes of left-behind craftsmen and peasants...
Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui burst into tears and cried loudly, and the sky collapsed and the earth broke.
Like them, Pang Yu, Changsun Wuji and many other officials sent by Li Tang to take over Luoyang.
Soldiers who made mistakes can kill the gold and silver they stolen can also recover them, but no matter how many heads and blood are, they cannot win back those contemptuous eyes and cold hearts. After the Chinese army withdrew, they still had the gold and silver from the warehouse to maintain the normal operation of Luoyang for the Li Tang army, but the soldiers of the Li Tang army snatched into their arms like robbers.
Walking on the "Wuanmin Road" built by the donations of all people, he entered the most popular palace of Xu Shengwang, Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui, here is not as good as the home of wealthy businessmen in Chang'an City.
Walking into the office of the officials in China, I looked at the teacups and four treasures of the study, and looked at the papers on which every table indicated their jobs and tasks. Their hands and feet were trembling... This is their dream of serving as a simplified government, but this place is a place for the country and the people. The officials here are the real pleading for the people and taking the people as their children...
"If the mountain is not high and there is immortality, then the famous water is not deep and there is dragon, then there is Lingxi. It is a humble room, but my virtue is full of heart."
The Lord of China and Chinese officials actually used this kind of words to describe themselves. The Holy King of China did not brag about his achievements and did not boast about his subordinates, and did not have any rewards or silver. He just wrote a poem to secretly encourage himself and the officials. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui stroked the inscription "This is a humble room, but my virtue is full." He was sad and crying.
The king of a country and the ministers of a dynasty are actually in such a simple place to work hard for the people.
King Xu Sheng is the most unqualified king in the world, but he is the most respected and loved by the people in the world. The wealthy families in Luoyang City live in a vast building with a high building in the most lively center, a building with a wide square of several miles, but the court where all officials worship is so simple.
There is no carving, a dragon, a phoenix, no carving, a skill, no paving, a felt, no drawing, a painting, and a picture. The names of all people are engraved on both sides of the road.
This is the measure that King Xu Sheng asked all officials to forget the efforts of the people when he went to court. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui felt the difficulty of walking on the road to the people for the first time. The first time he felt the attention of the people for the first time he felt the heavy responsibility of both shoulders... This is the way to be an official.
When you walk into the court in China, you will see the dragon case of King Xu Sheng. It is not high above but so close to all officials; it does not have the bright golden green carvings and jade bricks, just a stone case that is too ordinary to be more ordinary. The materials are exactly the same as the stone on the Wanmin Road outside.
Compared with Li Tang's magnificent dragon throne, which is tall and magnificent than the luxurious and grandeur of the main palace of the Chang'an Palace. Here, it can only be described as "shrimp".
There were six small cases in the middle of the officials standing on both sides. According to the left-behind craftsmen, they asked the officials to sit down and work. This made Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui stunned. Is there a place where the ministers sit in front of the king? In the whole world, I am afraid that only King Xu, who doesn't like Wang Yi, will love his ministers so much and care about whether his ministers are tired of standing and writing...
This place is very simple and not like a court. However, it is the court in Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui's dream. There is nothing to say in such a simple and caring place. There is nothing to be scrupulous and carefree.
They imagined that Wei Zheng, a famous Chinese official, stood by the officials and advised King Xu, who was determined to serve... How great would it be if the monarch who was determined to serve would secretly use the money donated by the people to build a palace to build a school, just like King Xu, to embezzle it...
"Are you two ministers Du?" After being recognized, several craftsmen left behind brought a stack of files and brought the Four Treasures of the Study House and said, "This is what Empress Zhenzhen and Duke Wei left to you. There are still many things in Luoyang that cannot be completed. Please continue. By the way, Duke Wei said that if the two are tired, they can go to his and Lord Fucheng to work. Duke Wei and his seat are in the left wing. Duke Du asked for his own care... The villain took his leave."
"What are these?" Du Ruhui saw one of the files that said about the compensation for trade between Luoyang and Chang'an merchants due to the interruption of the war and the final payment stated the amount of compensation and the name of the merchant. The source and value of the goods were even listed in the row and column of the compensation gold and silver in the national treasury.
One of the pictures in Fang Xuanling's hand was a cannon trade contracted by King Xu Sheng and Emperor Li Yuan of Li Tang. All the materials, capital, craftsman factory and casting tables were arranged.
The more they looked at the two, the more they trembled in their hands. The man's tears poured out again...
Treat the other person like a thief, but the other person treats himself like a guest. What you never forget is not the battle but the promise of the day; what you never forget is whether the gains and losses of gold and silver are the gains and losses of the people.
Compared with the two, Li Tang and China are so far apart.
