Tang Dynasty: After dominating Rome, I counterattacked Chang'an

Chapter 11 Be on guard, the child Li Chengdao from that year!

However, these Tang Dynasty patrol soldiers were unaware of this.

They continued their lazy patrol and chatted loudly.

"Captain Liu, what you said before is right. It is really a good job here. Not only is the salary high, but it is also safe."

In the two-person team, a young Tang soldier had a smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, Captain Liu laughed and said, "Of course, I have been here since the beginning of its establishment. No one understands the beauty of this place better than me."

"You are my relative, so I will recommend this place to you."

The Tang soldier smiled and said, "Uncle, thank you, old man."

Liu Fuchang's eyes widened: "What uncle? You have to talk about your official position when you go out!"

The Tang soldiers were immediately solemn: "Captain Liu, I understand!"

Upon seeing this, Captain Liu nodded with satisfaction.

"But Captain Liu, why is this place so safe, yet you can enjoy such a high salary? Is there a reason for this?"

The Tang soldier asked suspiciously.

He is only fifteen years old this year. It can be said that he was still a child ten years ago and had no idea about the Xuanwu Gate Incident, which was at its peak at the time.

In addition, when the King of Qin came to power later, the person in power naturally had to try his best to erase his own black spots, so he sent out a lot of public opinion energy to erase the Xuanwu Gate incident.

This also leads to,

Regarding the Xuanwu Gate incident, there were still people talking about it in the first one or two years, but gradually, fewer and fewer people were talking about it.

Ten years later, many newborns are still unaware of the Xuanwu Gate Incident.

Only the older generation will remember it forever.

But I just kept it in mind and didn't dare to say it out loud.

After all, the Tang Dynasty was already the world of the King of Qin. Discussing the King of Qin's shortcomings in public was courting death.

Liu Fuchang joined in the creation of this place, so he was naturally aware of this matter.

But he hasn't talked about it for a long time.

But, the person in front of me is my relative.

And he attaches great importance to family ties.

Captain Liu thought for a moment and waved to the Tang soldiers: "Come here."

The Tang soldiers walked over.

Liu Fuchang leaned close to his ear and said, "This matter has some origins. Can you promise not to tell anyone after listening to it?"

The Tang soldiers were stunned.

What's going on? It's so mysterious.

"no problem."

The Tang soldiers didn't care at all.

However, Captain Liu's next words left him stunned.

"This matter is also related to the King of Qin...our Majesty now."

boom! !

As soon as he finished speaking, the Tang soldiers' eyes widened.

"What? Is it related to His Majesty?"

he exclaimed.

This also frightened Captain Liu, who quickly hit him on the head and said, "You little bastard, keep your voice down!"

"Oh oh oh." The Tang Dynasty soldiers nodded continuously.

"Captain Liu, this...we are at the border. How does this have anything to do with Your Majesty? It has absolutely nothing to do with it."

The Tang soldiers did not understand.

Liu Fuchang exhaled: "I don't know the details of this matter. After all, I was recruited when it was founded, and I don't know too many details."

"But it is certain that it is related to His Majesty!"

"Back then, His Majesty seemed to have seized the position of Crown Prince, and then the Crown Prince's eldest son, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's eldest grandson, escaped."

"It was General Yuchi... He is the famous Yuchi Jingde of our Tang Dynasty. General Yuchi led the team to hunt him down, and they stopped here."

"It is said that the emperor's eldest grandson led the remaining soldiers of the Eastern Palace and crossed the sea from here."

"Later, General Yuchi set up a sentry post here to prevent His Royal Highness the Grandson from making a comeback."

The Tang Dynasty soldiers listened in a trance and were absorbed in what they heard.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, did you seize the position? Didn't you come here legitimately?"

He was extremely shocked. From childhood to adulthood, everyone around him, including those outside, believed that His Majesty's position was obtained legitimately. How come his uncle now said that it was stolen?

Liu Fuchang exhaled: "Yes, I robbed it."

"So you can't talk nonsense about this, understand?"

The Tang soldier nodded blankly: "Understood."

Liu Fuchang smiled and said, "Yes, this is my good nephew."

"By the way, although our sentry post is easy and safe, we still have to send a letter back to Chang'an City at the beginning of every month."

The Tang soldiers were stunned: "Ah? Why is this?"

"You brat, have you forgotten what I just said about the original purpose of establishing the sentinel?"

"Uh...Are you afraid that His Royal Highness the Grandson will make a comeback?"

"That's right! That's it!"

"Ah? Uncle, no way, it's been ten years. Ten whole years! Are you still so alert?"

"Who knows what the higher-ups are thinking, but this must be done. The commander also said that we can forget everything else about the entire outpost, but this is the only thing we cannot forget, even if we die."

The Tang Dynasty soldier nodded dazedly.

He felt that perhaps Chang'an was taking the threat posed by His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson too seriously.

After all, it’s been ten years!
Moreover, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is leading his men across the sea. All the fishermen near the sea know that there is no end, and that continuing to sail on will only lead to death.

I'm afraid that His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson from ten years ago had already been buried in the sea with his men, right?
"Alas, the gentlemen of Chang'an City are still too cautious."

The Tang soldier sighed.

"Not careful."

At this moment, a voice answered him from all around.

The voice did not come from Captain Liu, but from an old man with a white beard.

When Mr. Liu and his nephew saw this man, their faces suddenly changed.

"Commander Wang!"

"Commander Wang!"

The two of them spoke one after another.

Commander Wang is the highest authority in charge of this outpost. He is personally responsible for sending a letter to Chang'an every month, and this has been the case for the past ten years.

"Ah."

Commander Wang nodded and said, "You were shouting Your Majesty too loudly just now. I happened to be nearby, so I came over."

"Then I heard that the two of you were discussing your majesty's plan to seize the throne."

Upon hearing this, Captain Liu and the other man turned pale.

"Commander Wang, I... we two are not..."

"It doesn't matter."

Commander Wang waved his hands and said nonchalantly, "The emperor is far away, I will not tell Chang'an about this matter."

Captain Liu and the other man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Commander!"

Mr. Liu clasped his fists in thanks.

Commander Wang nodded and continued, "Liu Wei, you have been here for ten years. It is the same as it was ten years ago, right? The same vigilance, the same fear of underestimating the sea."

Captain Liu thought about it and nodded, "That's true, but the new generation of soldiers are not very vigilant, but the old generation, like you, are very vigilant."

Commander Wang exhaled, "Yeah~ We old guys are very wary, very wary...of that kid."

As he spoke, Commander Wang's thoughts drifted away.

It's like going back ten years ago.
He followed Yuchi Jingde's team and rushed from Chang'an to hunt down the child and his defeated troops.

Fortunately,
They caught up with the boy and the remnants of his army and engaged in battle.

And that day,
He saw it, and saw it very clearly.

That child….
Li Chengdao remained calm and unafraid amidst a sea of ​​blood and corpses.

During the entire war, he and Li Chengdao looked at each other once, and only once.

But that one look...
Even today, ten years later, Commander Wang dare not forget, and will not forget.

What a tremendous hatred was hidden in the calm eyes of that child back then.

The sharpness and momentum contained in those eyes,

He had seen it before in the presence of another person, the King of Qin.
