When the instructor's words rang out, the expressions of these soldiers instantly became solemn.
Of course they knew who the His Highness the instructor was talking about was His Highness King Qin, and he was also the person who allowed them and their families to live a good life today.
The instructor looked at all of them seriously, and then said loudly: "His Royal Highness said that when you put on these clothes, you will have the responsibility to protect the lights of thousands of houses behind you! So, at any time, Don’t forget your responsibilities!”
"This is what His Highness told us. I will tell you this again today! I hope you can all regard it as your lifelong motto."
Everyone was stunned for a moment. In fact, during their training, both the political commissar and the instructors told them a lot of similar words. But for some reason, they still felt shocked when they heard this sentence. .
As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, as the royal family of the Tang Dynasty, His Highness King Qin of the Tang Dynasty taught the soldiers, not to teach them loyalty, nor to make them loyal to the royal family, but to tell them that they have the power to protect the lights of thousands of families behind them. responsibility.
What kind of mind is this? !
Although they had already been convinced by His Highness deep down in their hearts, and many of them were even fanatical admirers of His Highness, when they really heard these words, they still felt an indescribable shock.
Because in the past, those kings and nobles of Silla, what they talked about the most was loyalty! Even if you go to the master's house to be a slave, the master's house requires you to be loyal!
But His Highness didn't say anything. He just told them that their responsibility was to protect the lights of these thousands of houses.
And among the thousands of lights, there is one from their family.
There is a passion stirring in everyone's heart. Yes, they now have the responsibility to protect the lights of thousands of families behind them, and for the first time they understand their mission.
In the past, even though they belonged to the city guard, they had no idea about their responsibilities, and they had not thoroughly thought about it. But at this moment, they had a clear feeling about their lives and what they had done.
They also understand what the meaning of life is.
"Okay! Disband! You have half a day's rest today. Tomorrow you will go to various places in Silla and then carry out your mission."
"I wish you all the best." The instructor said loudly.
"Salute!" the squad leader in the queue roared, and all the new security forces saluted their instructors.
…
In the southern suburbs of Jincheng, close to the port, there is a village. This village is also a refugee resettlement village. It is used to resettle villagers, original beggars and other people who have migrated from the northern border. These people come from all parts of Silla, almost all of them. Is a refugee.
There are no locals either.
But in this new village, under the arrangement of Datang, everyone not only had their own land, but also arranged houses for them to build their own houses. The focus was to provide them with enough food to survive. , which allows them to farm next year and survive.
And there are no taxes. They can even find work at the port now. Next year, they can use the money they earn to buy farm tools, which means that their lives will get better and better in the future.
However, at this moment, two people were sitting and chatting together in the village. Far away from them, in a corner of the village, several security forces were helping the villagers register their household registration and other matters.
"General Xu, do you regret it? If you were still here, you might be a general or the person in charge of the security army." Yu Wen said with a smile.
"I don't regret it. If I regret it, why did I commit suicide in the first place? In fact, I knew at that time that I wanted to be the executioner, because someone needs to take on this responsibility. After I die, the psychology of those brothers who took action The pressure will be much less, because there are many things that they cannot bear.”
"If I die, they can become a good security force and a good soldier. They may become a good soldier of the Tang Dynasty in the future. What's more, I was just a school captain at the beginning. I was forced to take this step. I can’t bear this step or a higher position.”
"But now, I feel relieved to see that the people of Silla finally have a way out, and to see these brothers have a way out." Xu Yong shook his head and said softly that he was saved by Yu Wen.
Only after he woke up did he realize that it was Yu Wen who arranged for someone to know his thoughts and then rescued him.
Then he was arranged to recuperate here. Now his injury has healed, and he has the identity of an ordinary citizen, and no one here knows him.
Anyway, he is just a loner.
"General Xu, do you really want to live here?" Yu Wen looked at him and asked seriously.
"Yes, from now on my name will not be Xu Yong, my name will be Yu Yong." Xu Yong looked at Yu Wen and said with a smile.
Yu Wen looked at him silently. After a long time, he took out a wad of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Xu Yong.
"What is this?" Xu Yong was stunned for a moment.
"The currency of the Tang Dynasty, a total of one thousand guan, I asked for it from the people of the Tang Dynasty." Yu Wen said softly, "General, you should take this money. Regardless of whether you are willing to come out or not, you still need money to live here, and , you have to find a sister-in-law for us people. The point is, I want all the money. If you don’t want it, I can’t explain it to those brothers. "
Xu Yong looked at the money in Yu Wen's hand, and finally reached out to take it, smiling and saying, "Then I'll take it. You're right, I always want to find a wife. But, what about you? Mr. Yu, Are you going to become an official? I think with your intelligence and talent, you will definitely become a marquis and prime minister in the future!"
"No, I'm just like you. If it weren't for hatred, I wouldn't stand up. Now the motivation to support me is gone. I'm tired of this officialdom. So General Xu, I'm just like you. Maybe I will find a deserted place, find a wife, give birth to a child, and live this life. In the future, if I settle down, maybe I will come over and be your neighbor." Yu Wen laughed.
"Haha, then Mr. Yu, I'll be waiting for you." Xu Yong also laughed twice.
"General Xu, oh, no, General Yu, goodbye!" Yu Wen bowed his hand to Xu Yong seriously.
"Goodbye!" Xu Yong did not hold back, but saluted Yu Wen equally seriously.
Seeing Yu Wen leading a horse into the distance, Xu Yong also had a smile on his face, wishing Mr. Yu a bright future as well.
