Chapter 662: People Oriented, Hundreds of Thousands Follow You

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Looking at the tens of thousands of Han troops below Hanzhang Palace, Liu Bei and all the Han ministers on the palace stage, I couldn't help but feel a sense of heroism in my heart.

"The strong wind is blowing, the clouds are flying, the Weijia sea is returning home, and the warriors are here to guard the four directions!"

After Liu Bang, the Taizu of the Han Dynasty, ascended the throne, he once returned to his hometown in Peixian County.

At a banquet for old friends in Peixian County, Liu Bang took advantage of the wine to compose this great wind song.

Perhaps at that time, in Liu Bang's mind, the country was in urgent need of brave men to protect the country for him.

But now in the hearts of Liu Bei and all the Han officials, they do not have this trouble in their hearts.

Ander warrior?

Aren’t they the tens of thousands of soldiers below?

Liu Bei, who was suddenly filled with pride, laughed and led his ministers to walk down the steps step by step.

When Liu Bei stepped onto the first step, the tens of thousands of red-armored warriors below, led by Mi Yang, all bowed to Liu Bei at the top.

At the same time, bursts of loud shouts echoed outside the vast Hanzhang Hall.

"The great man is mighty!

The big man is mighty!"

The heartfelt shouts of tens of thousands of red soldiers were like nine-day thunder in winter, shaking the sky and dispersing all the clouds, and shaking the faces of the powerful Han monarchs and ministers with pride.

After walking down the last step, the chamberlain who had been waiting for a long time helped Liu Bei board the imperial chariot driven by six horses.

After Liu Bei's figure entered the imperial chariot, Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, immediately shouted:

"Let's set off!"

Under Zhuge Liang's shouts, Mi Yang personally led thousands of strong Yu Linjing riders to clear the way in front, and then Liu Bei's chariot started moving.

As soon as Liu Bei's imperial chariot moved, many Han officials behind Liu Bei's imperial chariot all mounted their horses.

Hundreds of magnificent horses, together with a number of heroes from the Han Dynasty, slowly marched behind Liu Bei's chariot.

And behind those hundreds of Han officials were tens of thousands of soldiers standing straight and holding long spears.

The marching team of tens of thousands of people cannot be said to be without momentum.

Before Mi Yang, who had gone ahead, could step out of the palace city, the people outside the palace city noticed an unusual movement.

They felt that the ground beneath their feet seemed to be shaking faintly.

Could it be that Earth Dragon is about to turn over again?

Although last month, Liu Bei announced his intention to pay tribute to Changling on New Year's Day in the form of a cloth.

However, most of the people in Chang'an City are illiterate, and they are busy making a living, so it is difficult for them to pay attention to this matter.

But even if they didn't know it before, what they saw next still shocked them.

Under the sunlight, thousands of Yulin Jingqi, wearing iron armor, slowly walked out of the tall palace city.

When the increasingly dazzling sunlight shines on the armor of thousands of Yu Lin Jingqi, each one of them shines brightly.

In the eyes of ordinary people, they felt that these thousands of Yulin Jingqi were not like mortal soldiers, but like heavenly soldiers sent by God to save the Han Dynasty.

And just when most of the people were still shocked by the scene before their eyes, Liu Bei's royal chariot also appeared in their eyes.

Six tall horses, heads held high and neighing.

They are all white, without a trace of impurities on their bodies.

Driven by the palace charioteer, these six auspicious white horses were pulling the imperial chariot behind them in unison.

The imperial chariot Liu Bei was riding was more than one foot high and several feet wide. This was the first time for many people to see such a huge chariot.

The imperial chariot Liu Bei rode was not only huge in size, but its body was also inlaid with gold, silver, jade, precious stones and pearls;

In the gaps between the gold, silver and precious stones, there are dragon and phoenix patterns carved by the most skilled craftsmen in the world.

As the imperial chariot advanced step by step, the dragons and phoenixes on the imperial chariot became lifelike in the eyes of the people, as if they would soar into the sky at the next moment.

Not to mention the tens of thousands of energetic Han troops who followed behind the imperial chariot, exuding bloody courage.

Such a royal chariot, such a majestic style, fully demonstrates the majesty of China's Zhengshuo!

Since the Han Dynasty regained Chang'an, there have been many spies from various parties in Chang'an City.

Those spies are now hiding among the people outside the palace wall. If ordinary people see this scene, in addition to being shocked, some of them are proud.

Then those spies were not only shocked but also in awe!

I wonder how they will report to their respective masters what they saw today.

But at the moment, their thoughts were all distracted by the advancing chariot.

Unknowingly, the spies were out of control and followed tens of thousands of Han troops towards the outside of Chang'an City.

And could it be that those who behaved like this were the spies sent by the enemy?

No.

Even the spies sent by the enemy were like this, let alone the people under the rule of the Han Dynasty.

Inner pride, like a vigorously growing spring seedling, rises in the hearts of countless Han people.

The name of the country "Han" is the pride of the Chinese nation.

Now Liu Bei and his ministers are just returning this pride to the Han people.

In addition to their inner pride, the people in Chang'an City also had a strong sense of gratitude towards Liu Bei.

Although the Han army recaptured Chang'an not long ago, Liu Bei issued many edicts that were beneficial to the people on the first day he took control of Chang'an.

Effortless corvee and low taxes, pardon for innocent people in prison, severe punishment for the lawless wealthy families in Chang'an...

Every edict was issued by Liu Bei from the starting point of the people.

"Determined to give the people a stable life", Liu Bei never forgot his original intention.

Although many people cannot read a few Chinese characters, their eyes are sharp.

Whether Liu Bei treats them well or not has been verified through various changes in the past two months.

The people are simple and honest, and they also know how to be grateful.

If Liu Bei is good to them, they will respect and love Liu Bei as their own father.

Under the influence of inner pride and love for Liu Bei, many people who were busy making a living inevitably forgot what he had to do today.

Farmers, scholars, businessmen, and craftsmen, all dressed in various clothes, representing different classes of people at that time, spontaneously followed tens of thousands of Han troops and walked in the direction of Changling.

Many people were holding firecrackers and red couplets they had just purchased. They were going to take these festive items home.

But somehow, an idea emerged in the minds of many people - maybe these objects in their hands will have better uses today.

There are at least 200,000 people living in Chang'an City alone.

And if we add in the people who came to Chang'an from surrounding villages to buy new year's goods, there are at least 300,000 people in Chang'an City.

Not all the three hundred thousand people gathered outside Weiyang Palace at first.

But due to word of mouth, people who are close to Weiyang Palace are constantly coming here.

As they continued to gather together, the number of people following Liu Bei's chariot increased from tens of thousands at the beginning to tens of thousands, and in the end they were approaching the one hundred thousand mark.

Will the empty streets only exist in history books?

No, just call them with virtue.

The march of tens of thousands of people can be called a crowd, but what about the march of tens of thousands of people?

This should be called the sea of ​​​​people, a vast sea of ​​​​people.

Fortunately, Zhuge Liang had anticipated today's grand occasion before, so he had already arranged everything.

Tens of thousands of Han troops not only shouldered the task of protecting the Han monarchs and ministers, but also shouldered the responsibility of stabilizing order.

Under the restraint of many well-trained Han troops, although the vast sea of ​​​​people looked frightening, no bad accidents happened after all.

The spontaneous following of tens of thousands of people could not be concealed from Liu Bei who was sitting in the royal chariot.

Perhaps for suspicious emperors like Cao Cao and Sun Quan, after learning about this incident, they would worry that there were many dangerous factors hidden among tens of thousands of people.

But for Liu Bei, who regards "people-oriented" as the basis of his life, he is happy to see such a scene.

Even in times of crisis, he is willing to take hundreds of thousands of people to escape from the enemy's butcher's knife.

How much more so today?

After thinking about the past, Liu Bei signaled the army to slow down in order to take care of the tens of thousands of people.

After the Han army slowed down its marching speed, the distance between the Han army and the people behind them was getting closer and closer.

The moment Mi Yang walked out of the city gate, tens of thousands of Han troops and tens of thousands of people were already connected.

Outside the city gate, there are people coming from all over the surrounding villages in a steady stream.

When they arrived outside the city gate, they saw a scene they would never forget.

A team with no end as far as the eye can see is continuously pouring out of the city gate of Chang'an City.

The gate of Chang'an City is more than ten meters wide, but even such a wide gate was filled to the brim by the advancing team.

After seeing this scene, many people outside the city subconsciously exclaimed.

They had never seen so many people in their lives, and they couldn't even imagine who could have such appeal.

When the scholars who had just returned from hunting outside the city saw this scene, even if they prided themselves on being well-informed, they could not help but be frightened by the scene in their eyes.

While frightened, many scholars could not help but recall something they had heard.

I heard that when he was in Jingzhou, Liu Bei crossed the river with hundreds of thousands of people to escape the war.

When they heard about this incident at that time, they thought it was like a fantasy.

Who has ever won the hearts of the people in this way?

Who can be so benevolent and righteous!

But what they saw today made them realize that in the past, they were really looking at the sky from a well.

who?

That person is none other than Liu Xuande!

His virtue is clear and his deeds are fierce!

Changling, where Liu Bang rests, is located on the north bank of the Wei River, more than thirty miles away from Chang'an City.

After walking out of Chang'an City, Mi Yang turned into a dragon head and continued to march in the direction of Changling, leading the huge dragon body behind him that seemed to be able to crush Chang'an City.

Wherever the huge dragon body winds its way, it seems to have a huge magical power, constantly attracting people on the road to join.

As the Han army approached the Wei River, the number of civilians integrated with the Han army officially exceeded the one hundred thousand mark.

Perhaps if today had not been such an important festival as New Year's Day, the number of people following the Han army would not have been so large.

But no matter what, Liu Bei's trip today will inevitably leave a good story for future generations.

There was no call in advance, let alone edict arrangements, but it was able to spontaneously attract hundreds of thousands of people to follow, leaving Chang'an City almost empty.

How many emperors in the past and present have been able to achieve such a grand occasion?

It's just that no matter how grand the event is, it will eventually come to an end.

For well-trained soldiers, as long as they are not carrying a lot of baggage, a distance of more than thirty miles is not too far.

But for most people, this is quite a difficult task.

After the huge team arrived at the south bank of the Weishui River, many people were out of breath from exhaustion, and many even fell far behind.

Due to lack of physical strength, many common people could only watch blankly as the Han army continued to cross the pontoon bridge, but they could no longer take heavy steps.

But is it possible that the only way for people to express their respect and love for the Han Dynasty and Liu Bei is by following him?

A middle-aged scholar subconsciously picked up the firecracker in his hand while panting.

Gunpowder had not yet been developed to a certain extent in this world, so people usually celebrated festivals by burning bamboo to cause explosions.

The firecrackers in his hand were purchased just now in Chang'an City for the New Year's Day tonight.

But now this middle-aged scholar had a different idea in his mind.

The middle-aged scholar quickly wrapped the red cloth in his hand around the bamboo. Then, under the surprised gaze of his son beside him, he took out the fire starter in his arms and lit the red bamboo placed on the ground.

When the dry bamboo body meets the flame, there is a thunderous explosion.

The sudden explosion made the people around this middle-aged scholar turn their attention to him.

For people who are under control in later generations, the sound of thunder caused by firecrackers may be unpleasant and even a little scary.

But in today's world, this kind of voice is what every common person is willing to hear.

Because this sound represents the most sincere blessing in the world.

The behavior of the middle-aged scholar also means that he wants to send his most sincere blessings to Liu Bei and the great man.

The behavior of the middle-aged scholar quickly aroused the imitation of the surrounding people.

They are also willing to send their best wishes to Liu Bei and the big man who protect them.

Soon after, more and more people imitated the behavior of the middle-aged scholars, wrapping the firecrackers in their hands with red cloth and lighting them on the ground.

On both sides of the Wei River, the wind howled.

One or two firecrackers were not enough to attract the attention of the Han army who had already crossed the Wei River.

But what if there are tens of thousands of sounds?

As more and more firecrackers sounded, tens of thousands of loud firecrackers instantly joined together, suppressing the noisy wind with an absolute advantage.

For a time, the south bank of the Weishui River was filled with the sound of firecrackers representing celebration and blessing.

The extremely loud sound of firecrackers finally attracted the attention of many Hanchens on the north bank.

When Mi Yang turned around and looked towards the south bank, what caught his eyes were thousands of fireworks scattered in the sky, and what immersed in his ears were the good wishes rippling in his heart.

This look made Mi Yang and other Han officials burst into laughter.

Such a big man is exactly what they want! If you like Mi Han, please bookmark it: (www.sodu777.net) Mi Han Search Novel Network has the fastest update speed on the entire Internet.
