Sometimes the stele separates not only two countries, but more often it separates people's hearts.update soon[ ]

Once there is a gap between people, even if they deliberately make up for it, it will only be like withered flowers in the broken moon mirror in the water, and they will never be able to return to the original state of the hazy relationship.

Li Kuo has been thinking about how to eliminate this invisible boundary.After thinking about it, the young man finally understood.To eliminate this invisible barrier, the most important thing is to rely on the detainee's own efforts, that is, his subjective desire.No matter how much outsiders encourage and help him, it will be futile if he does not have the courage to step out of the restricted area of ​​the boundary marker.

All he can do is keep cheering them on and leading them in the right direction.Whether they can get out of the siege in their hearts depends on their obsession and their own understanding. The fate of these immigrants is undoubtedly sad.Longyou veterans like Lin Feng, who were trapped in Tubo, would at least feel sad when they looked back to the east, "I can't see the sun when I raise my eyes but I don't see Chang'an".And these people of the Tang Dynasty have no idea what is the Great Tang and what is the Tang Army.The burden of the hometown is too heavy for them. (Note 1) <For those survivors who chose to stay in the Tang army, the mood at the moment is undoubtedly complicated. [ ] On the one hand, in order to become a member of the Datang Tongwuying

While preparing soldiers and rejoicing, they have to say goodbye to the past decades.Although Tang soldiers were extremely friendly to them and welcomed them to join the Tang army with the most sincere attitude, the long-term living habits could not be changed in a short while.

For example, people in Tang Dynasty don’t eat barley buns. Soldiers in Tang Dynasty don’t like to eat roasted whole sheep. Military officers in Tang Dynasty don’t believe in Shambhala. A whole host of diametrically opposed living habits.And these things are precisely what they are accustomed to and cannot let go of.But since everyone decides to join the Tang army, they can only adapt to the life of the Tang people.Only in this way can one truly integrate into the Tang Dynasty and become an authentic Tang person!

After the collection of nearly a thousand survivors of the Tang Dynasty, the scale of the Tang army expanded again.The marching commander Gao Xiuyan temporarily assigned the newly joined Tang Min to the Tongwu camp, led by Captain Guo Yi Li Kuo.In this way, the Tongwu Camp under Li Kuo's jurisdiction actually received nearly 600 people with an establishment of 600 people.

At the suggestion of Su Ta, the chief of the White Wolf Clan, everyone left five hundred White Wolf Clan warriors and three hundred Tang Army veterans in Hekou City as support.In this way, after everyone forces the main Tubo army on the Chiling line back to aid Jiuqu City, they can safely bypass Wuhai, step across the vast Dafei River, cross Qinghai, and return to Tang from Yinglong City.

After everything was properly arranged, the army set off from camp in the early morning of the next day.The marching commander Gao Xiuyan ordered the Tang army to carry two plateau horses each in addition to their own mounts.Since the Tubo people left them so many war horses, there is no reason not to make the best use of them! <Wearing the black armor newly issued by Sicao to join the army, Xizizi rode the saddle to Li Kuo's side.Now the most important thing Tang Jun lacks is horses, so even these reserve soldiers who have just joined the army can be assigned to ride.

"How about the brothers' armors still fit?" Li Kuo took the rein and smiled softly. <Obviously still not quite used to this new title, he froze for a moment and thought for a moment, then stroked the back of his head and said: "We have never worn such a good armor. The surface of the armor is as shiny as if it has been coated with tung oil. Yes. It's like the stele in front of Hekou City." <He had already understood the function of that stele.During the Taizong Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty had seized the vast land of Jiuqu and Hekou.Emperor Taizong ordered a stone monument to be erected outside the city of Hekou to show the great Tang martial arts. (Note 2)

But who knows that the world is unpredictable. After the strong rise of Tubo, it is committed to competing with the Tang Dynasty for the control of the Hexi Corridor.

The Tang people naturally faced the helpless battle with joy, and due to various internal and external factors, the Great Tang Dynasty suffered a disastrous defeat in the Battle of Dafeichuan.The direct consequence of this plateau battle was that Tubo won the actual control of the Jiuqu and Hekou areas, and the fertile land became a place for the barbarians to herd horses overnight!In order to humiliate the Tang Dynasty, the Tubo people actually used that stele as a horse tethering stone!

Day after day, year after year, the stele on the positive side of the stone stele has long been worn away without any traces, and the mottled traces seem to be sobbing softly to express the grief and indignation in my heart.The most hateful thing is that the job of tethering the horse was handed over to a Tang survivor like Wang Xiaochun.How did they know this humiliation when they grew up in Tubo? <! Li Kuo raised his head and said, "Do you know why the surface of the stele is so bright?"That's because there are countless robes soaked and watered with blood!You have to remember this day, this day you walked out of the siege and stepped out of the boundary of the monument.From this moment on, you must be upright Tang people.No matter how others bully you, give me back severely.Don't feel anxious and helpless. We are always by your side. Datang is always by your side.Did you see the sun above his head? Xu only felt that the black box deep in his heart was suddenly opened, and inexplicable emotions sounded like rolling winter thunder.

Could this be Datang?This is my hometown?

The young man clenched his fists and his back, which had been hunched for a long time, straightened for a moment.

Note 1: When you look up and see the sun, you can't see Chang'an: "Shi Shuo Xin Yu Su Hui No.12-3".At that time, a messenger came from Chang'an to ask the Emperor Jin and Yuan about the situation in Luoyang, and he couldn't help crying.Emperor Ming was still young and was very puzzled, so he asked Emperor Yuan why he was sad. Emperor Yuan replied: "I can't see Chang'an when I look up."

Note 2: In the eighth year of Zhenguan (634), Tang Taizong decided to re-open the Silk Road in the Han Dynasty, and ordered Li Jing, the army god, to lead the army to attack Tuyuhun, an obstacle in the corridor of the Western Regions.The Tang army marched nearly a thousand miles and won a complete victory, bringing the entire territory of Qinghai into the map of the Tang Empire.

ps: Sometimes we only know how to cherish Ming when there are only a few fragments left.I just hope that everyone will not forget that exciting era.Let's not sigh' look up and see the sun but not Chang'an. 'We want to do it' Ascension of Asahi is Datang! '
