Looking at the people who kept greeting him, Luo Zhang couldn't help but calm down the enthusiasm of the people. He slowed down his horse and greeted the people in the same way.
As long as Chang'an Avenue is, the people's queue is as long as it is. This is a celebration for them to welcome their hero back.
Feeling the enthusiasm of the people, Luo Zhang was also very excited. He felt that all his efforts were worth it, and he even felt a little moved to tears.
Defending the homeland and defending the country, these four words are not just talked about casually, it requires blood and tears.
Soldiers have to fight with all their might, even their lives, to resist foreign enemies.
Let’s not talk about the Turkic War, but let’s talk about the battle of Koguryo. According to history, Li Shimin also failed in the first expedition, and it was Li Shimin who failed in the expedition himself. The blow to Li Shimin can be imagined, and even because of the water and soil Unconvinced, Li Shimin almost died in Gaoguli.
But this time it was different. Li Shimin did not go on the expedition himself, but Li Jingshuai's army went out. The biggest difference was that Luo Zhang created artillery during this expedition.
The emergence of this transcendental thing made it very easy to attack Gaoguli. Coupled with the cooperation of the Royal Navy, Datang's army and horses basically did not lose much.
The battle with the most losses was to defend Jian'an City. The siege battle was all about attrition. Fortunately, relying on Luo Zhang's artillery, he successfully repelled Gaoguli's army and successfully defended Jian'an City.
This battle is crucial. If they cannot hold it, all their previous efforts will be wasted. After all, time is limited. They cannot attack Gaoguli in the autumn. Then when the cold winter comes, the Tang army will surely suffer heavy losses. , so that it ended in a disastrous defeat. In history, Li Shimin was defeated because of such mistakes.
Not only Li Shimin, but also the three expeditions of Emperor Sui Yang failed due to weather conditions. Otherwise, Gao Gouli would have been clamoring in Liaodong and peeking at the Tang Dynasty.
The fact that the people arrived to welcome Luo Zhang was immediately spread to the major families and the palace by a famous spy.
When everyone heard the news, they all fell silent. Some of these people were envious, some were jealous, some were grievances, and most of them were helpless.
During the Turkic War, Luo Zhang soared into the sky, and now that Changsun Wuji has fallen, Luo Zhang has repeatedly won meritorious service in the Goguli battlefield. It can be said that Luo Zhang will probably occupy half of the country in the future.
After all, with Luo Zhang's meritorious service, not to mention the Duke of the country, the Duke of the county would not be able to escape.
How old is Luo Zhangcai? twenty?
Hou Huo Qubing, the champion of the Han Dynasty at that time, had eighteen titles. Compared with Luo Zhang, he was not worth mentioning at all. In other words, Luo Zhang's achievements had surpassed Hou Huo Qubing, the champion of the Han Dynasty.
As long as they think of Luo Zhang's age, these family members are speechless.
Age is political life, and this is true no matter what era.
At such an age, Luo Zhang has reached a height that others would have to work for decades to reach. In the next few decades, Luo Zhang will probably rule the court.
Can these families not be depressed and speechless?
In the palace, Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair and thought about what Luo Zhang said to him today. Until Luo Zhang and the others left, his mood still could not calm down for a long time.
You must know that the reason why the royal family invites so many offerings is not only to frighten the major families, but also because of the royal family's helplessness.
At that time, he beheaded his eldest brother and third brother, and even killed his children in order to eradicate the roots. This made him the only one in the entire royal family.
But none of his descendants can take the lead alone, let alone those with high martial arts skills. If there is a powerful person in the royal family, why would he recruit so many worshippers.
But now, if that uncle is willing to sit in the royal family, then he can take action against the major families with peace of mind.
At this moment, Eunuch Huang hurried in from outside the hall.
The sound of Eunuch Huang's footsteps woke Li Shimin out of his deep thoughts. Seeing Eunuch Huang's hurried footsteps, Li Shimin frowned slightly. Could something have happened again?
"Your Majesty, the people of Chang'an came to welcome Luo Zhang, and the whole of Chang'an was boiling!" Eunuch Huang briefly explained the matter.
Li Shimin smiled and said: "This is a good thing, this is what he deserves. The people are not fools. Whoever has contributed to the Tang Dynasty will be like a mirror in their hearts!"
