Chapter Eleven: The Wish of Re-glorification (2)

While Chen Wanrong was pondering, Chen Zairong thought that Chen Wanrong did not support him. He felt anxious and blurted out a poem: "The depression caused the gates and the swaying of the shore. The flowers were shaking in the forest, and the sound of birds splitting the valleys. The shadows of the clouds scattered, and the water spread out. The songs of great wind and music are strong, and the world is clear."

The poem is about the wind, and the last two lines "Lao Songs, the songs of the great wind, the beauty of the world is clear", but it is majestic and makes people feel passionate. Chen Wanrong was greatly infected and praised: "Good poetry, good poetry!Lao Songs, the songs, the songs, the songs, the beauty of the world is clear, the beauty of the world is clear, the beauty of the world is clear! Whose poem is this? It must be a great hero who can write such a bold poem!"

Chen Wanrong is now smart and capable, and very confident. His status in Chen Zairong's mind has greatly improved. He only feels that Chen Wanrong is a world of difference from Chen Wanrong before. However, it is well known that Chen Wanrong is ignorant of Ding. Chen Zairong listens to his poems and even explains the key points in one sentence, and he can't help but be particularly surprised: "Brother, when will you judge poetry?"

"I can read 300 Tang poems well, but I can't write poems, but I can recite poems." I don't know how many times this sentence has been said by the Chinese language teacher. Chen Wanrong has read a lot of Tang poems and can remember a lot of them. I heard this poem for the first time, although I don't know who came from, at least the charm of the poem can be savored.

Chen Wanrong couldn't tell the truth, so he simply explained the artistic conception of the poem: "Writing poems and writing articles requires feeling, and the articles that are like whining without illness are not contagious. The poem is so wonderful that it resonates with me, and I just say a few words casually."

A sentence of excuses was exchanged for Chen Zairong's high-five praise: "You must express your feelings when writing poems and articles, and you must not complain without any illness. The same is true for the gentleman. Brother, you are really amazing! You even understand this."

If someone who has never been to school and is ignorant of Ding actually has such a clever view, can Chen Zairong not be praised?

Didn’t the Chinese teacher teach this? Chen Wanrong used it as an excuse, but he didn’t expect to get Chen Zairong so praise. He was about to be humble, but only heard Chen Zairong continue to say: “Brother, you don’t know that this poem was from Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong fought for his whole life, fought in the world, founded the Tang Dynasty, worked hard to govern the world, and worked hard to govern the world, the country was peaceful and the people were prosperous, and the border was peaceful. It was not inferior to the ancient great hero Qin Emperor and Han Wu.”

I don’t know how many times I heard of Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty Chen Wanrong, and I knew that he was an amazing hero. He established the Tang Dynasty and founded the "Zhenguan Governance". The name of a wise monarch has been passed down through the ages, which means that when modern people mention this amazing monarch, they will give him a thumbs up.

Unexpectedly, he would write such a bold poem. Chen Wanrong couldn't help but say in surprise: "It's Emperor Taizong's poem, no wonder he's so bold! He sang the great wind songs, borrowing the allusion of Emperor Gaozu of Han's "The Song of the Great Wind", but Emperor Taizong's civil and military skills were not comparable to Emperor Gaozu of Han."

Emperor Taizong of Tang was actually a versatile talent. Not only was his literary and military skills rare throughout the ages, he could also write poems and compose music, and his calligraphy was also good. Emperor Taizong of Tang had a good music cultivation. There were two famous music from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, one was the "Qin King Break the Formation Music" by Emperor Taizong of Tang, and the other was the "Qin Shop and Feather Clothes" by Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, which was a work that has been passed down through the ages.

Emperor Taizong of Tang loved Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface" and buried it with him, which caused the treasures of calligraphy to be destroyed and criticized by later generations. However, Emperor Taizong of Tang was very famous.

Many of his poems have been circulated in the world, and like the fu of Emperor Wu of Han, they have reached the level of professional literati. There are many descriptive works, but the endings are always full of imperial spirit.

Our modern people focus on Emperor Taizong of Tang on his literary and military skills, and rarely care about his calligraphy achievements, literary standards and musical cultivation. Who said that his "imperial career" is so brilliant? So Chen Wanrong was a little surprised at first.

For Chen Zairong, a Tang Dynasty man, Emperor Taizong was not only a great monarch, but also an idol in his mind. He paid attention to his allusions and poems, so it was not surprising that he could recite the poems of Emperor Taizong of Tang.

This time, Chen Zairong no longer slapped his high-high, but slapped his right hand heavily on his thigh, making a crisp sound, and his tone increased a lot, and he shouted loudly: "The Emperor Gaozu of Han created a powerful Han Dynasty and ended the rebellion at the end of the Qin Dynasty. His achievements were in history. However, he could not attack the Xiongnu in the north. At the first expedition, there was a siege of Bai Deng. If Chen Ping had not made a strange plan, how could he escape and return? Emperor Taizong would not have been. In order to create the Tang Dynasty to fight against the east and west, it was invincible, ending the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty and stabilizing China. More importantly, Emperor Taizong destroyed the Turks, but the humiliation of Taiyuan's surrender, and the shame of forming an alliance. The Turks surrendered, the four realms were peaceful, and there was nothing in the north. Isn't the "power to the four seas clear" a portrayal of his great achievements in the world?"

In China's five thousand years of history, the most successful counterattacks against foreign enemies were two times. One was the war to defeat the Huns chaired by Emperor Wu of Han. This war lasted for decades. Wei Qing defeated Yi Zhixie and staged the heroic song of "Shanyu Escape at Night" and Huo Qubing Fenglang Juxu Mountain is the pinnacle of this war, with far-reaching influence.

Another successful counterattack against foreign races was the war to destroy the Turks led by Emperor Taizong of Tang. We also talked about this war because the Turkish Jie Li Khan was captured alive. The fact that the enemy's leader was captured alive was very rare in Chinese history, and it was only once in the Tang Dynasty.

But this was a difficult and tortuous process, not as simple as later generations imagined. Like the Huns, the Turks were very fierce grassland nomads. They were skillful in bows and horses, good at fighting, and were very powerful at the end of the Sui Dynasty. When Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan, in order to eliminate the threat from the north, he surrendered to the Turks, and he got temporary peace in the north.

After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the relationship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty became worse and worse day by day, and became increasingly unstable. It was not long after the "Xuanwumen Incident" in 626 AD. Jie Li Khan believed that Emperor Taizong of Tang had just ascended the throne, but he ascended the throne through an abnormal method such as a coup. He thought it was profitable, so he personally led 100,000 iron cavalry to march straight into the Wei River, only a few dozen miles away from Chang'an.

If the Zhao Song Dynasty or the soft emperor of the Ming and Qing dynasties were under the pressure of the enemy's troops, they would definitely flee in a hurry. Emperor Taizong of Tang was not afraid, but instead led six cavalry to the Wei River, commanded the army to set up a formation, and acted as a decisive battle. Jie Li Khan originally wanted to engage in political blackmail, but he did not expect Emperor Taizong of Tang to be fooled, so he had to negotiate and reaffirm his brother's agreement, and signed an alliance with Emperor Taizong of Tang at Binqiao, which was known in history as the "Binqiao Alliance".

Although the Turks did not get any advantage, this incident angered Emperor Taizong of Tang. A war against the Turks was in full swing under his leadership. Four years later, in 630 AD, the amazing Li Jing attacked Yinshan at night and drove Jie Li Khan's nest. Jie Li Khan fled north in a hurry and captured alive at Jikou, and declared his destruction, and the Turks resigned.

Emperor Taizong of Tang destroyed the Turks not only as simple as destroying the country, but also a war of avenging shame. The humiliation of surrender and the shame of the Binqiao Alliance were washed away.

When the Tang people mentioned this, they were all proud. Chen Zairong couldn't help but grab his right hand to his left waist. Unfortunately, his sword was broken and he grabbed it in vain. He clasped his hands into fists, looked ahead, and said with passion: "If you can follow Emperor Taizong to destroy the Turks, what's the regret even if you die?"

Chen Wanrong understood his sincere feelings for serving the country. He was about to comfort him, but Chen Zairong sighed: "It's a pity that now the north is wars, the people are living in dire straits, and the people live in dire straits. The hateful Turks surrendered and rebelled, rebelled and surrendered, and repeatedly, and were extremely shameless. If they could not fight against the Turks in this life, they would be a man who was in vain!"

The Tang Dynasty was a powerful dynasty, but after Emperor Taizong of Tang, the wars on the border increased and became increasingly unstable. The Turkic rebellion caused peace to the north. Even the Anbei Protectorate could not gain a foothold in the northern part of the border and had to move in. Not only Chen Zairong was indignant about this, but Chen Wanrong was also angry and comforted Chen Zairong: "Zairong, this matter is not urgent, so you have to take it slowly."

Chen Zairong's joining the army was a big pustule, and he would be broken by one. If he mentioned this matter again now, Chen Laoshi and Chen Wangshi would definitely not be sure. It is better to be rushed to be slow or urgent.

"Brother, do you agree to let me join the army?" Chen Zairong was very happy to find that Chen Wanrong supported him very much.

Chen Wanrong said in a voice: "A man has ambitions and is determined to fight against the Turks. Can I not support you? Even if it is unfortunate, the horse is wrapped in a corpse, it is a matter for men! However, this matter cannot be mentioned now. You should go to study first. I will find an opportunity to tell my parents."

"Brother, thank you." Chen Zairong's face was flushed with excitement, and he couldn't help but grab Chen Wanrong's arm: "Brother, do you know what Mr. Huang said? Mr. Huang said, if I don't join the army, I will be a man!"
