Chapter 252 The Long-cherished Wish of the Veterans
Jiang Yi looked at Emperor Wu of Han in admiration, knowing that this was the pride of China.
Maybe he is not the most perfect emperor, but his backbone has influenced future generations for thousands of years.
It’s just that many people in modern times forget it or selectively ignore it.
They only saw the romance and romance abroad, but they did not see the corpses abroad when disaster came. However, they did not see that China had inherited the past and opened the future for thousands of years, and created a prosperous era with both backbone and civilization.
"Your Majesty, this road is difficult and will also cause you to suffer controversy and cause the people in the later stage to suffer from poverty."
Jiang Yi reminded that, with a light wave of his right hand, the people of Emperor Wu of Han appeared in his later years.
Many towns in the Han Dynasty were hungry everywhere, and many poor people were dressed in rags, pale and thin, with clear bone marks on their faces. Some were only gnawing on a little bit of tiny steamed buns, and some were even exchanging children with others.
Emperor Wu of Han frowned slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a brief sense of shock appeared between his eyebrows and eyes, but he was soon replaced by the majesty that the emperor should have.
He did not expect that the Han people would be so miserable in the later period...
Many viewers were also puzzled: "Didn't Wen and Jing leave a lot of savings? Although Emperor Wu of Han was ruthless, it was not that serious!"
"That's right, how could the ancestors of that period look so hungry?"
Just then.
In the picture, Liu Che appeared in his later years.
When Liu Che got off the carriage and saw these victims, the shock on his face was much more than that of the young Emperor Wu, but he did not hide at all.
"See Your Majesty!"
"See Your Majesty!"
As soon as Liu Che got off the carriage, many people flocked to him and saluted respectfully.
Although people's livelihood was declining in the late Han Dynasty, the people's support for Emperor Wu of Han was extremely high.
When Liu Ju wanted to protect himself, he, who was deeply loved by the people, not only released the prisoners, he also mobilized and armed about tens of thousands of people in the four cities of Chang'an. These people were willing to follow the crown prince Liu Ju, which shows his talent and prestige.
But when the rumors began to be rumored by the prince's rebellion, many people refused to rely on him in an instant. It is not difficult to see how popular Emperor Wu of Han was!
Therefore, even though life was hard, when they met Emperor Wu of Han, the people still respected the gods.
"Your Majesty, I am a veteran who has participated in the Battle of Mobei. Today I finally see you!"
"Your Majesty, I have participated in the Battle of Dragon City. Thank you for visiting us!"
"Your Majesty, I am a cavalry under General Huo. Are you doing well?"
Some veterans were in tears. Seeing that Emperor Wu of Han was also very haggard, they couldn't help but say with great concern: "Your Majesty, you must take care of the dragon's body!"
In his later years, Emperor Wu helped a veteran with a cane up and looked up at the thousands of victims in front of him.
This group of people, who were obviously wearing ragged clothes and even roaring hungry, were still caring about his body...
In his later years, Emperor Wu looked far away and raised his head slightly. He finally realized how much suffering the wars over the years have brought to the people!
"It's me, I've made you suffer!"
"Your Majesty must not say that. We fought those battles happily. If the Huns were not defeated, we would have to watch our children fight today!"
"That's right, Your Majesty, we have to thank you for leading us and exerting the majesty of the Han Dynasty!"
"We Han Dynasty people are not easy to mess with!"
The veterans said firmly.
As soon as they finished speaking, many modern veterans couldn't help but shed tears in front of the screen.
"Great Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"
A seven or eight-year-old great-grandson in an old man's arms quickly handed over a tissue.
"It's nothing, great-grandfather remembers those brothers."
The old man's wrinkled hands took the tissue, rubbed his eyes, and choked and said, "At that time, many of the great-grandfather's comrades fought with the thoughts of those veterans."
"Little great-grandson, do you know what grandpa is most happy about?"
The old man cried and squeezed the little boy's face with a smile.
The little boy blinked and said curiously: "What is it?"
"It's children of the same age as you, no longer have to live in the war."
"It's our country, those brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts who are a few years older than you, or teenagers, and those who are decades old, can live a peaceful and stable life."
The old man showed relief. When he mentioned this, his eyes were like a ray of light and he smiled: "There are no requirements for their wealth. He only hopes that they can be healthy and happy, in addition to their parents and relatives, there are only veterans who are not in the loess like your great-grandfather..."
"We went to war at that time, not thinking about making achievements, but just thinking that even if we die on the battlefield, we have to fight and fight well!"
"In this way... you don't have to fight."
“Luckily, we did it.”
Tears from the corners of the old man's eyes flowed down again, and he was deeply moved when he looked at the veterans on the screen.
He likes to watch the fireworks on New Year’s Eve and to see the contemporary children traveling around because it means that the mountains and rivers are safe.
When he sees some children with their backbones bent outwards, he will be sad and sad, but he can only tell himself silently that it is only a small part.
He actually wanted to say to those people, if you really want to forgive anything, even if you just wait for us veterans, you will be gone...
Moreover, the useless birds are still blatantly respecting their so-called heroes. You have forgotten your roots. Is it really appropriate?
Many old people want to say these, but they are hard to say.
They had to swallow the bitterness into their stomachs, and planned to go down to meet their old comrades one day, so they had to hide it.
They thought that admiring foreign countries was unstoppable, but the emergence of the collection of China allowed them to see the true national ridge of China and the real mainstream of today!
In the picture!
In his later years, Emperor Wu listened to the veterans' words and had to hold back his tears.
He bid farewell to these veterans, and then the scene changed and the scene appeared. He issued an edict of guilt!
"Since I ascended the throne, I have been so cruel that the world will be sad and do not regret it. From now on, those who have harmed the people and consumed the world will be stopped!"
"War, you can't fight again!!!"
After that, Emperor Wu sat alone in the Han Palace in his later years, his eyes were filled with tears and his lips trembled violently, as if he had a lot of pain and grievances, and wanted to vent.
The picture on the mirror of time and space slowly disappears.
The young Martial Emperor looked solemn, and looked at the map under his feet again, sweeping across countries after countries.
"Your Majesty, will you continue to fight?"
Jiang Yi asked.
Emperor Wu of Han did not reply immediately, but only stepped on the Huns with his left foot and Nanyue with his right foot, falling into deep thought.
After a moment, Emperor Wu turned around, and his back looked a little lonely and towards the throne.
When he stood in front of the throne, he suddenly turned around and said the answer...
