Chapter 161 Every sentence hits your majesty's heart! [Seeking monthly votes]

As Li Chengqian finished speaking, the entire training ground fell silent.

Even Feng Duan, who was outside the camp, was moved.

Although the State of Liang, under the leadership of Liang Shidu, had always been close to the Turks and followed their lead, the people and ministers of the State of Liang, including these generals, had never denied their identity as Han people from the Central Plains.

In other words, Li Chengqian's dignity as a great power in vindicating the Han people in the Central Plains was still shocking to the ears of anti-Tang generals like Feng Duan.

This is recognition that comes from deep in the blood.

This is the desire that has been suppressed by foreign races for a long time and has not been released.

This is the backbone that should belong to the Han people in the Central Plains.

"The prince guards the country's gates, and the king dies for the dignity of the country and the nation."

Feng Duan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Now I finally understand. The gap between Li Shimin and Liang Shidu is like the difference between heaven and earth!"

After saying this, he looked up at the Tang army camp engulfed in flames and waved his hand, saying, "All troops, prepare! Kill every Tang soldier inside! Don't let a single one escape! Especially the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty. We must not let him escape!"

In his opinion, the Tang Dynasty had already produced a powerful emperor like Li Shimin, and there could not be another Li Shimin.

Therefore, Li Chengqian must die.

Even though Li Chengqian's words moved him, it was precisely because of this that Li Chengqian could not survive.

Otherwise, after the Tang Dynasty passed through Li Shimin and then fell into the hands of Li Chengqian, he really couldn't imagine how powerful the Tang Dynasty would be.

As for whether Liang State could avoid the disaster of national destruction after killing Li Chengqian, in his opinion, it was actually the same.

Killing him will destroy the country, and not killing him will also destroy the country, so why not kill him?

Maybe it will go down in history!
However, after he gave the order, the messenger next to him did not respond at all.

This made him slightly stunned, and then he became angry and lashed out with a whip: "Why are you still standing there? Go and pass the order!"

"what!"

The messenger screamed in agony from the beating and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy: "General, please spare me! General, please spare me!"

"You bastard! I asked you to pass on the message!"

"Passing what?"

"Send the order!"

"What order?"

"Snapped!"

Feng Duan was so angry that he whipped him again, then jumped off his horse, strode up to the messenger, grabbed his ear and said, "Are you deaf?!"

In just a moment, he understood that the messenger also had rags stuffed in his ears.

However, just as he was feeling embarrassed about his previous order, Li Chengqian's voice came from the Tang army camp again.

But he said passionately: "Brothers, I, Li Chengqian, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, am willing to fight the Liang army to the death. Even if my blood is shed on the battlefield, I will die without regrets!"

"Because I didn't come here to be a wimp!"

"I want to rescue the people of Liang State who are being oppressed by Liang Shidu. I want to tell them that Han people from the Central Plains do not fight Han people from the Central Plains. I want them to live well under the dignity of a great country, and live like human beings!"

"They are not anyone's slaves. They should not be bullied by foreigners. We must repay blood for blood, tooth for tooth, for any foreigner who bullies the Han people of the Central Plains!"

"I want to tell them that the Han people of the Central Plains still have their country and land. Don't cry—!"

Wow!
The whole place was in an uproar!

The black-clad guards who had been guarding the soldiers below the stage suddenly raised their arms and shouted.

"Down with Liang!"

"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"

As the group of black-clad guards shouted, the soldiers off the field also shouted.

"Down with Liang!"

"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"

"For the dignity of a great country, we will fight the prince to the death!" Du Caigan also shouted excitedly.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Lancheng, Liu Min, Lai Fu, Hill and others also began to echo: "Defend the dignity of a great country!"

"Defend the dignity of a great nation!"

"We swear to fight to the death with the prince!"

As more and more people shouted, the atmosphere in the entire school field was pushed to a climax. From a distance, it looked like an iron wall forged by steel will, unbreakable.

"call"

Looking at this iron wall, even Li Yuan, who was used to big scenes, was deeply shocked.

He couldn't help but let out a long breath, muttering to himself: "No cession of territory, no compensation, no tribute, no marriage, no abandonment, no giving up. The invaders can go, and I can go too. The prince guards the national gate, and the king dies for the country. Anyone who offends the Tang Dynasty will be punished, no matter how far away they are."

"No wonder my grandson's heart is towards the sea. No wonder my grandson came to Sakuta Jiro. We all lost. This time, not only you, but also I, your father, have lost with conviction."

"Once these words are spoken, who among the descendants of the Li Tang royal family will bow down?"

"Even you, Jiro, should probably consider your future."

In fact, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the strategy it has adopted has always been to fight when possible and seek peace when not.

Although this approach was indeed in the interests of the Tang Dynasty nobles, it also harmed the interests of the people.

The reason why there are so many Han people from the Central Plains in the heartland of the Turks is actually because the interests of the people were sacrificed.

The same is true for the Wei River Alliance.

Regardless of whether this sacrifice is good or bad, from today on, whoever chooses to sacrifice the interests of the people will be nailed to the pillar of shame, despised by everyone, and infamous for eternity.

Therefore, although it seemed that Li Chengqian came to Shuofang to eliminate Liang Shidu, he was actually taking this opportunity to redefine the Tang Dynasty.

Once this kind of thinking becomes mainstream, how high will Li Chengqian, who pioneered this kind of thinking, go? Even Li Yuan, who has been with Li Chengqian since he was a child, feels that he can't see clearly.

"Ah!"

Li Yuan couldn't help but laugh: "I never thought that my Li family would have such a son or grandson. I don't know whether it is a blessing for the Tang Dynasty or a misfortune for the world."

Having said that, he looked at Li Chengqian on the high platform with a dazed look in his eyes, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he saw his two sons and ten grandsons standing together with Li Chengqian, carrying all their wills.

Next to him, Changsun Wuji looked at Li Chengqian with a complicated expression, and for a moment he didn't know what words to use to describe his current mood.

As Li Shimin's childhood friend and his follower for the first half of his life, he knew Li Shimin too well and knew too well what Li Chengqian's words meant to Li Shimin.

So, after a long while, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, "No compensation, no tribute, no cession of territory, no marriage alliance, the Crown Prince guards the national border, the King dies for the country. Every word of this strikes at Your Majesty's heart. He's so bold!"

"Boom!"

The gate of the Tang army camp collapsed in the raging fire.

"Kill!"

All the soldiers in the training ground rushed towards the Liang army that was shouting and killing as if they were injected with chicken blood.

There was no hesitation.

The Liang army was so frightened that their pupils shrank sharply. However, before the Liang army could engage in battle, another round of shouting and killing came from behind them.

"Eastern Palace Black Armor Guards! Come and protect the Crown Prince!"

"Kill!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers in the camp instantly became excited.

One by one, they burst out with fighting power that they could never even imagine.

For example, a short soldier who looks only about 1.6 meters tall, facing a Liang soldier who is over 1.8 meters tall, would rush forward, jump, grab the soldier's head, and beat, bite, and tear him apart.

Even though he was being hammered continuously by the tall Liang Jun, he refused to let go, and tortured the tall Liang Jun to death. He was still cursing: "The Crown Prince said that Han people don't fight Han people. You dog traitor, you are looking for death!"

After saying that, he spat a mouthful of blood and phlegm on the other person's face, then got up and continued to fight with Liang Jun.

Similar situations are everywhere.

The Liang army was defeated and had nowhere to retreat.

Until Su Dingfang and Feng Duan met.

The two men started fighting without saying a word.

At first, Feng Duan thought Su Dingfang was older than him and would be easy to bully. However, after a few moves, he realized that he was no match for Su Dingfang and suddenly wanted to surrender. So he begged for mercy while fighting, "General, I want to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. Please spare my life!"

"Humph!"

Su Dingfang snorted coldly and said, "The people I hate most in my life are those who betray their master and their country. Take my bullet!"

"what!"

Feng Duan was shocked. He never expected that his surrender to the Tang Dynasty would be rejected by the Tang army generals.

You know, when Li Zhengbao and his men surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, they were treated very well!

Why was I rejected when I surrendered to the Tang Dynasty?
Could it be that this Tang Dynasty general has a grudge against him?

Thinking of this, he hurriedly asked: "General, is there any misunderstanding between us?!"

"You misunderstood your mother! Die!"

Su Dingfang roared and launched a sudden counterattack.

Swish!
Su Dingfang's spear instantly pierced a hole in Feng Duan's chest.

He looked at Su Dingfang in disbelief, with blood gushing out from the corner of his mouth. Until his death, he never understood why he died.

As Feng Duan was killed by Su Dingfang in one blow, the Liang army, which had already been routed, threw away its armor and weapons and knelt down in surrender at an astonishing speed.

If they said they didn't listen to Li Chengqian's speech, the Tang army who wanted to kill them would definitely not believe it.

However, since the other side had already surrendered, and even most of the Liang army were their former comrades, it was impossible for them to massacre the surrendered Liang army.

Therefore, the Liang army's siege soon ended in failure.

Li Chengqian, upon seeing this, breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to look at Lai Fu and said, "Lai Fu, quickly inform Commander Su and have him go and assist Commander Xue immediately. Make sure Jie Li stays here!"

"promise!"

Lai Fu did not dare to delay and rushed out of the training ground immediately.

At the same time, in Tongwan City of Liang State.

Liang Shidu looked at Liang Luoren, who was holding the blood sword, with an angry face and scolded him, "Liang Luoren! How dare you betray me!"

"Who do you think you are? How dare you call yourself "I"?!"

Liang Luoren sneered and said, "If you know what's good for you, surrender quickly, or I'll make sure you die!"

"Hahaha!"

Master Liang laughed out loud, then said solemnly, "Do you think you can succeed? Do you think I'm not on guard?!"

As he spoke, he shouted to the soldiers behind Liang Luoren: "What are you waiting for?! Kill Liang Luoren for me, and I will promote you three levels! Make you a marquis of ten thousand households!"

"This"

The soldiers behind Liang Luoren looked at each other, but no one pointed a knife at Liang Luoren.

But then Liang Luoren sneered again, "Do you think your Liang Kingdom will still exist? Do you think the high official titles and nobility you promised them would be tempted?!"

As he spoke, he raised his sword and looked around at the soldiers and ministers, then continued, "What you have done over the years is worse than even that of pigs and dogs. We have long had enough of your cruelty and ruthlessness. We are Han Chinese from the Central Plains, not the pigs and dogs you keep in captivity for the Turks!"

"That's right! You damned tyrant! We've put up with you for so long!"

"A tyrant and unjust ruler deserves death from everyone!"

As Liang Luoren finished speaking, the soldiers and ministers in the hall were instantly ignited with anger. They held weapons in their hands and approached Liang Shidu step by step.

"You, you guys."

Liang Shidu never imagined that so many people would betray him.

Even the soldiers who were originally confronting Liang Luoren began to pick up their weapons and point them at him.

How could this happen? How could this happen?!
Their own army was clearly besieging the Tang army camp, and Jie Li's reinforcements were clearly still fighting the Tang army. Weren't these people afraid of retaliation from their own people and the Turks?!

Damn!

It’s all the fault of that damned Crown Prince of Tang!
Why is his voice so loud? Even the people in Tongwan City have been bewitched by him!
What the hell is the dignity of a great power!
Only when you are alive can you have dignity!

When you die, there is nothing!
"No! You can't do this to me!"

"You are my subjects, and will always be my subjects! You are committing regicide! This is unethical!"

"Humph!"

Liang Luoren snorted coldly: "Even if it's not right, we will kill you, the tyrant!"

"No! He is not worthy of being a king! He is a beast!" Feng Xiaobao's father shouted angrily in grief and anger.

The other ministers and generals also echoed.

"Kill the beast! Kill it!"

"Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!"

Soon, Liang Shidu and his guards engaged in battle with the generals and ministers led by Liang Luoren.

The two sides fought in the Liang Palace, with blood and flesh flying everywhere, dyeing the Liang Palace red.

In the end, Liang Luoren's side won a tragic victory, while Liang Shidu was seriously injured and forced to the steps of the throne. He said miserably: "Luoren, we are relatives. Do you really want to treat me like this? Have you forgotten the past?"

"enough!"

Before Master Liang could finish his words, Liang Luoren approached him with his sword drawn, his face savage and shouting, "Back then, my father only tried to persuade you to return to Tang, but you killed him! Have you forgotten how many relatives you've killed over the years? Die!"

After saying that, he stabbed Liang Shidu's abdomen with his sword and twisted it again and again until Liang Shidu died of pain. Then he kicked him down the steps to the throne.

At this time, the ministers and generals of the Liang State who fought bloody battles were looking at Liang Shidu, who died with his eyes open on the ground, with complicated expressions, and they didn't know what expression to use to show their current mood.

Until Liang Luoren spoke again: "Everyone, I want to return the whole country to Tang. Who is in favor and who is against?"

"This"

The Liang State's civil and military officials looked at each other, bewildered, and finally said in unison: "We agree!"

"Alright! Follow me to open the city gate! Return to Tang!"
