Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 915 Epiphany
On the city wall, Fang Jun was dressed in armor, calm and relaxed.

Even under the earth-shattering power of Xiangbing's charge, Fang Jun was as stable as Mount Tai, and his expression didn't change a single bit. He was calm and calm as if he was admiring the flowers blooming and falling in the garden...

Fan Zhenlong couldn't calm down.

The Tang army is indeed brave. The waves of bows and arrows that are higher than the waves are like a life-threatening storm. The mighty Zhenwa army is falling down one by one like a rice field in a rainstorm. The screams are even on the city wall. All deafening.

Tang Jun obviously didn't know the power of the Zhenla elephant soldiers. Once this kind of elephant, known as the "divine beast", charged, with its powerful strength, huge size and impressive speed, it was often invincible and almost irresistible!
All countries in the southeast have elephant soldiers, but only the elephant soldiers in Chenla and Siam are more outstanding. Their methods of training elephants are regarded as top secret, and the familiarity and protection of elephant trainers is even stricter than that of kings!
No matter how strong the Tang army is, can it still resist the charge of the elephant soldiers with flesh and blood?

Bows and crossbows obviously cannot cause fatal damage to elephants with rough skin and thick flesh...

When the Zhenla elephant soldiers approached the city, Fan Zhenlong was full of disappointment.

Tang Jun is too proud and overbearing!
If you retreat to the city at this moment to defend against danger, relying on the powerful bows and crossbows of the Tang army, you will surely be able to block the Zhenxu army under the city. , can also immediately clear the siege.

but now……

Fan Zhenlong couldn't help closing his eyes, feeling infinite resentment towards the Hou Ye who was pretending to be dying.Do you want to equip you with a feather fan so that you can pretend to be Zhuge Liang in the city?

However, just when he closed his eyes and couldn't bear to see Tang Jun's target soldiers trampled into flesh, there was an earth-shattering explosion sound in his ears, and then, the explosion sounded like a punishment from the Nine Heavens Thunder God. It was deafening, and even the city wall under my feet trembled, as if it would collapse in the next moment!
Fan Zhenlong opened his eyes in amazement, and saw countless black balls being lit by Tang Jun on the torch and thrown to the front of the formation.The black smoke is more beautiful than the whitest cloud, and the flashes are more dazzling than the strongest sun!
The elephant soldiers in Chenla scattered and fled in just a split second!
There is nothing more shocking than seeing hope suddenly in the midst of despair!Fan Zhenlong opened his mouth wide, looking at the crumbling Chenla army under the city wall in disbelief!The elephant soldiers were completely disintegrated, and the Tang army advanced slowly and methodically. The sword and shield soldiers were in front of the cover, and the crossbowmen were shooting in their hands. The white-feathered spike arrows were like life-threatening spells, flying towards the unstoppable Powerful Chenla infantry!
At the moment when they were about to be massacred, they suddenly reversed and staged a good show of anti-genocide!
The generals and ministers of the Linyi National Army on the city wall were very excited. Fan Zhenlong suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. He knew that today's city would become the burial place of the Chenla army, and none of the elephant soldiers could escape, because he saw the elephant soldiers The soldiers scrambled towards the pit that Fang Jun had dug in advance...

Fan Zhenlong's spirit was lifted, and he waved his hand: "Follow this son to kill the enemy!"

When he rushed down the city wall, countless Lin Yiguo soldiers followed him and rushed out of the city gate, chasing and killing the defeated Zhenxu army. For a while, the open space under the city wall became Shura Hell, with blood, stumps, and corpses... …

Kill Ying Ye!
Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui guarded Fang Jun on the left and right. Liu Renyuan and Xi Junmai were leading the navy soldiers to kill the enemy under the city. The battle was extremely easy. Until now, no Tang army has been killed.

Liu Rengui was a little puzzled: "Although Lin Yiguo has a deep relationship with the Han people, it has always had a tradition of resistance and did not submit to the jurisdiction of the Han people. Since the founding of the country, it has fought against the Han people many times. Whether it is Chenla or Linyi, all It is impossible to become the territory of the Tang Dynasty, if the Hou Ye wants to make a fortune, that's all, why buy a seaport?"

His thinking was almost the same as that of all Han people at that time, and he didn't have a strong desire to annex the land of Linyi Kingdom, just like describing chicken ribs: "It's a pity to discard the tasteless food"...

After all, Datang is too far away from here, so it is easy to fight, but it is too difficult to occupy it for a long time.

Fang Jun chuckled, leaning on the blue bricks on the crenel of the city wall, looking at the chaotic battlefield of chasing and fleeing below the city, turned his head and saw the officials of Lin Yiguo standing far away, unexpectedly heard his own words, and said softly: "If the Han people can raise their heads and look at the stars and the sea instead of continuing to be self-sufficient and clinging to the weak, if our descendants can live in freedom and abundance for generations, then what I do today will have witnessed immortality."

Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui looked at each other in astonishment.

……immortal? !

They really couldn't understand that Fang Jun would use such a word to describe what he did today!
What is immortality?

Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui are both well-read poets and books, so the answer is natural.

In the spring of the 24th year of Lu Zhaogong, Shusun Bao arrived in the state of Jin. Fan Xuanzi greeted him and asked him, "The ancients said, 'Death is immortal'. What does this mean?" Shusun Bao did not answer.Fan Xuanzi said: "In the past, the ancestors of Gai were the Tao Tang family from Yushun and above, the Yulong family in the Xia Dynasty, the Hu Wei family in the Shang Dynasty, and the Tang Du family in the Zhou Dynasty. The Jin State presided over the Central Plains alliance. It's Fan's time, so I'm afraid that's what I mean by immortality!" Shusun Bao said, "According to what Leopard heard, it's called Shilu, not immortality. Keeping the surname, accepting the family name, keeping the ancestral temple with karma, Shilu Sacrifice has been cut off from generation to generation. There is no country that does not have this situation. This is only the highest official salary, and it cannot be said to be immortal. There was a former doctor in Lu State named Zang Wenzhong. After his death, his words will not be discarded from generation to generation. This is what he was talking about! Leopard heard: "The highest is to establish virtue, the second is to establish merit, and the second is to establish speech." If you can do this, even if you die, you will not abandon it for a long time, and you can be called immortal."

What is immortality?

Above all, there is meritorious deeds, followed by meritorious deeds, and next there are words, even if they are not abandoned for a long time, this is called immortality!
What Fang Jun means is that what he is doing now, can his achievements be called endless?
Neither Liu Rengui nor Xue Rengui could understand.

It's just that Lin Yiguo wants to come to a permanent territory, so dare to say that his deeds are already immortal?
Territory has never been called "permanent"!
Now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, Linyi Kingdom is also returned, no matter it is Chenla Kingdom, even the Turks in Mobei in the Western Regions have to avoid their edge and go far away, so naturally no one dares to plunder its edge!Even if Lin Yiguo was dissatisfied with this piece of land, he would not dare to take it back rashly.

But as the saying goes, when the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, it will lose money. It is impossible for Datang to continue to be so strong. When it weakens one day, Lin Yiguo will still take it back easily?

It's useless at all...

Liu Rengui is an honest person, he never pretends to understand, let alone flattery, he cupped his hands and said calmly: "Forgive me for being stupid, Lord Hou please clarify."

Fang Jun scratched his head...

How to explain this?

It's not that it can't be explained, but it's the greatest knowledge in the world. If it weren't for those who traveled from later generations, almost no one could see through the thick fog the most original factor for the rise and fall of dynasties in this world.

This involves the attitude of the people towards the land, the customs of the whole society, the orientation of national policies, and the confinement of thoughts by Confucianism...

The thesis is not enough to express clearly, so how can Fang Jun speak clearly?

Looking at the confused expressions of Liu Rengui and Xue Rengui, a light suddenly flashed in Fang Jun's mind!
He suddenly realized that his path was wrong!

How big of a project is it to reverse people's obsession with land to liberate productivity, change society's contempt for business, and even improve the values ​​of Confucianism?
Even if Fang Jun is a sage of a generation, it is absolutely impossible to achieve such a goal!
Not to mention that it can be successful in just ten or decades!
This requires countless like-minded enlightened people to contribute their ingenuity, wisdom, and even blood. The perseverance of generations will finally enable this nation to get rid of the shackles of the land, radiate amazing creativity, and possess the spirit of forging ahead, manufacturing The ambition to dominate the world!
