When most of the sun rose into the sky, Luan Jia finally reached the top of the mountain under the gaze of everyone.
On the Temple of Heaven, the flames were burning brightly in the huge copper cauldron.
The tripod is an important weapon. The Holy Emperors in ancient times cast tripods to suppress the mountains and rivers of China and to ensure the eternal stability of the country.
Although such a beautiful vision has not been realized, even if the cauldron is used to suppress it, when the system decays, people's hearts change, and dynasties continue to reincarnate, the tradition of using the cauldron as a sacrificial vessel has been passed down.
At the foot of the mountain was an army of 200,000 people. On the mountain were civil and military officials. Zhao Sheng, Zhao Xiang, and Zhang Huanger were in the middle. Everyone was watching at this moment. Zhao Cheng followed the steps step by step towards the highest point. at.
Even though it is only Wang Nanhuang now and not the king of the world, once the establishment becomes king, it means that he is no longer a straggler, but a king recognized by heaven and earth. No matter what happens in the future, even if the king's career suddenly becomes empty tomorrow, this It is also a mark in the history books that can never be erased.
He joined the army at the age of ten and was trapped in the mountains and forests at the age of sixteen. Now, in just a few years and less than twenty, he has already established himself as a king. This is undoubtedly a legendary career unprecedented in ancient and modern times.
Wei Ye, who was among the military attaches, was more excited than ever before. He had followed Zhao Cheng for a long time. Although he was still guarding Lianshan, his official position was constantly rising.
And he is also a witness to Zhao Cheng's legend over the past few years. From the time when a group of people were hunted down by Wu Yuan to the end of the world, to now, when Nanhuang bows its head and the world is not far away, all these changes and encounters have changed the life and death. From the confusion and fear in his mind to the prominence of the five-flowered horse and golden fur, the honor and disgrace of his life has long been deeply tied to the man in front of him who is striding upward.
Unconsciously, he was in tears.
I recall that when he joined the army, his mother at home only asked him to live a good life and did not expect him to make any achievements.
He also thought about the dangers of military battles. He started as a big soldier and passed death many times. At that time, he never thought about the future, let alone that he could become as prominent as he is today.
Those kinds of emotions were brewing in the heart, and finally settled. In the end, they just turned into an emotion of dying for one's confidant.
"Cough cough cough!"
In Yingtian City, Wu Qi woke up from coughing. He reluctantly sat up and took a few breaths before finally feeling better.
Looking at the sky outside for a long time, he suddenly remembered that today was the day when Zhao Cheng was crowned king.
It is said that building a high wall, hoarding food, and becoming king slowly. The reason why you need to delay becoming king is because in troubled times, whoever becomes king first will become the target of public criticism. Not only the court will come to attack you, but also the heroes. They will also give priority to beating you. If you beat you, you will not only gain reputation, but also gain territory.
But with the current situation of Ying Tianjun, there is no need to postpone the title of king. As Huang Tian's old subordinates, Ying Tianjun is fundamentally at odds with the imperial court. Whether he is crowned king or not actually has little impact; The sooner the system is established, the faster the civil and military officials under them can unite as one, and the quicker the people under their rule can return their hearts.
If you don't claim to be the king, you will always feel like a straggler.
All strategies in the world change with time, and there is no absolute golden rule.
"Wang Nanhuang, the vision of the ancestors of the Wu family has finally been realized."
Wu Qi murmured, although he had already accepted his fate, at this moment, he could not help but feel a strong emotion in his heart.
More than half a year ago, when the army was defeated outside Wucheng, although he vomited blood, he still had some physical strength and had good martial arts skills. Therefore, he was not killed on the spot but was captured.
After the capture, Zhao Cheng did not kill him. Instead, he sent the Wu family relatives who had been captured before to Wu Qi.
Of course, these Wu family children were all those who had never done evil and had a history of bullying men and dominating women. They were killed at that time.
After a period of time, Li Tonghai came to lobby in person, but he asked Wu Qi to perform meritorious service and start teaching classes on the art of war.
If it were the moment he was captured, Wu Qi would definitely have had death aspirations. However, during this period of time, he was enjoying his family life, and was also discouraged and his ambitions were in vain. The two thousand Taiping battalions not only defeated the three coalition forces, but also Wu Qi's fighting spirit was broken.
After his fighting spirit was defeated, he cared more about family ties.
And Li Tonghai's lobbying is not complicated. You don't want to live, but you also want to save your descendants. If you surrender, your descendants will also abandon the dark side and join the bright side. Although they were enemies in the past, they will no longer be after surrendering.
Otherwise, your descendants will always be rebels. Although they can survive, they will never be able to recover. The guilt on their bodies may not be able to be washed away for hundreds or ten generations to come.
After making such a powerful statement, Wu Qi finally compromised.
Such a strong-willed man, who was not afraid of death at all, and whose mind was as firm as iron, even if his whole family died, he still wanted to fight with Zhao Cheng to death, so he still chose to kneel down.
This was something he could never imagine in the past when he was at the proud moment of his life.
During this period of time, sometimes he also thought that maybe the real Wu Qi had already died in the fierce battle that night, and the one who survived was another person.
"Grand plans and ambitions spread their wings, and I dreamed of joy several times, but they all turned out to be empty dreams from the beginning..."
Wu Qi murmured.
In the past, whenever he woke up, a waiter would come to serve him, but now, there is nothing. All his glory and wealth are in vain. Even his married wife has to weave cloth to support the family. .
But he knew that for him, as a defeated general, to have such an ending, Zhao Cheng was already as magnanimous as the sea.
As of now, he no longer has any great ambitions. He only wants to spend the remaining time to accumulate some achievements for future generations, so that the lives of future generations will be easier, and his life will never be touched. My wife can feel more relaxed after she leaves.
The former lion was gone long ago, and all that existed now was just a domestic dog, but Wu Qi was somewhat content with it.
"Wang Nanhuang, Wang Nanhuang..."
Wu Qi muttered, and unknowingly, perhaps because of the pain in his body, he fell into a deep sleep again.
This time, he had a dream. In the dream, he fought for thousands of miles and fought for several years. Finally, he unified the southern wilderness and realized his lifelong ideal. However, the good times did not last long. Not long after, he was killed by Cao Cao. What is right is defeated.
Later, he died of illness, and Wu Yuan turned to Cao Zheng.
From the beginning, it was empty again.
The king's career is too difficult, and there are so many heroes in the world. Even in a dream, the courage of his Wu family is only enough to carry a Southern Wilderness.
Unknowingly, tears had wet the pillow towel.
