Chapter 1520

At this moment, with the military order issued by Wang Yang before, all the soldiers stopped what they were doing, and focused on this place, gradually gathered around, and focused on Wang Yang and the elders of Yinzhou City.

Wang Yang patiently comforted the old man and asked the others. Except for the three of them who came from a foreign land, no relatives were buried there, the rest of them all had relatives or relatives who died on the battlefield in Yongle City.

However, at that time, this place was occupied by the cruel and easy-to-kill Xixia people. The people of the Song Dynasty could only look north and shed tears, but could not go here to bury the corpses of their relatives.

When the Song Dynasty became strong and captured Yinzhou and Yongle City, nearly twenty years had passed, and it was hard to find out which one was the corpse of a relative. It was only by the arrangement of the government that could be distinguished and confirmed as the Song people were buried here.

Listening to the people's bloody wailing, many soldiers' eyes were red, and their tiger's eyes were filled with tears. The bitter wind was still shouting, making the blood-colored flags of the Song Dynasty sound violently.

"Dear soldiers, have you heard it?" Wang Yang turned his head and shouted loudly at the nearly 10,000 soldiers gathered here.

The silent elites of the Song Dynasty suddenly answered in an orderly manner. "I heard it!"

"In the past, the Western Xia foreign relatives, Empress Dowager Liang and his brother Liang Yi were in power. The country's power declined and politically corrupt. The whole country of Xixia complained and the people lived in poverty. The Queen Mother Liang of Xixia sent troops to replace our Song Dynasty for no reason. The northwestern border troops of our Song Dynasty rose up in anger and defeated the invading enemies of Xixia several times.

In November of the fourth year of Yuanfeng (1081), the Hu Ben of the Song Dynasty defeated the Xia army in Qingzhou (now Qingyang, Gansu) and recovered more than 2,000 miles of homeland. The government and the country were excited and all were happy. The late emperor Shenzong ordered the chief officer Xu Xi and the general manager of the military commander of the Fuyan Road, Zhong Yan, led his troops to attack Xia in September of the fifth year of Yuanfeng (1082).

Following Wang Yang's words, many people did not know about this miserable defeat that caused the emperor and ministers of the Song Dynasty twenty years ago and caused the Song Dynasty to cry and tears.

In this battle, no one in ten people and soldiers in Yongle City could survive, and nearly 100,000 people died inside and outside Yongle City. Nearly 20,000 soldiers of the Song Dynasty, after the city was broken, less than two thousand survived.

After hearing this sad story, many soldiers shed warm tears, especially the Thousand Western Army of the Song Dynasty who led the crowds to cry in despair.

"And today, Wang led my great Song Hu Ben to this place. Only when he saw this scene did he realize that Wang had made a big mistake. In addition, Wang wanted to apologize to the soldiers and the elders of the northwest of the Song Dynasty..." Wang Yang said this and bowed deeply to the ground to the elders and villagers and the nearly 10,000 soldiers.

"Sir, what are you doing? I heard that it was my decree back then, which left no bones in Yongle City with corpses everywhere. If it weren't for you, Su Xianggong and others, I'm afraid that I would not have the chance to come to worship my relatives until I die..."

A father-in-law from Yinzhou City quickly fell to the ground and headed towards Wang Yang.

"Brother-in-law, please ask me for it quickly. Those are all things I should do, but I have not done enough, and the government has not done enough." Wang Yang said this and his voice suddenly rose.

"I have been in this land for more than a hundred years. I have been invaded and looted by the Western Xia for no reason, and I don't know how many times have I been in the northwest of the Song Dynasty been killed on the battlefield, or lost my homeland and displaced."

"Now, our Song Dynasty has finally driven the Western Xia bandits thousands of miles away and restored the old land, which has made everyone in the world happy and excited. However, we have forgotten one thing, one big thing..."

"That is to remember countless border soldiers of the Song Dynasty who have dedicated their blood and lives for the peace and tranquility of the northwest land of our Song Dynasty, and the people!"

"So, Wang must express my apology to you and to those victims who have already returned to heaven."

Speaking of this, Wang Yang took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, turned his head and shouted, "Where is the shopkeeper of Wanhong Trading Company in Yinzhou?!"

"Caomin is here, I wonder what the commander has to do?" The shopkeeper of Wanhong Trading Company, with red eyes, quickly strode out and saluted Wang Yang respectfully.

"I need a lot of cement and bricks. I will build it here with the soldiers here, build a ancestral hall for the people to pay homage to the victims, and build a tall stone tablet here..."

"I want you to let the people of the world know that I, the Song Dynasty, will not forget those who resist foreign enemies and sacrifice their lives for the country. We must also tell the people of the world that their heroes will be sacrificed by incense and will be immortal..."

Hearing Wang Yang's loud and passionate roar, more than ten thousand soldiers pursed their lips tightly, not daring to make a sound, for fear that they would not hear clearly and not understand.

When Wang Yang heard Wang Yang mention that a ancestral hall was built here to worship those who sacrificed their lives for the country, and to erect a monument, more than 10,000 soldiers directly bowed down a large area.

"The Grand Marshal treats our robes so well, and we are willing to die for the Grand Marshal!"

A shouted, and then more and more people shouted so loudly, forming an unstoppable torrent.

Wang Yang raised his hand and signaled everyone to silence. It took him a long time to calm down these excited Tiger Bens of Song Dynasty.

"You are not serving me, but for your fellow villagers, and for my Song Dynasty! Wang has already reported to Your Majesty about this place. I think it won't take long to understand that I, the Song Dynasty, will definitely not let countless martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the Song Dynasty die in vain, and heroes have no way back!"

Eunuch Xu's face turned red at this moment, but he still did not forget his responsibilities. He did not dare to miss out on the slightest omission of Wang Yang's words and the reactions of the over 10,000 Song Hu Ben were all copied on the secret transcript. On that day, another carrier pigeon shook his wings and headed south...

Two days later, the emperor sat in the imperial study room and looked at the two pigeon letters placed in front of him from the northwest. One was from Wang Yang, and the other was from the military supervisor Xu Eunuch.

Su Dongpo, Zhang Shi, Cao Shi, Di Yong, Wang Hou and many new and old party leaders are here. At this moment, everyone seems a little silent.

Just now, the emperor Zhao Xu personally wrote the two pigeons, especially the detailed statement of Eunuch Xu, which was not mixed with a trace of personal emotional factors, really shocked everyone present.

"Your Majesty, I think that Lord Wang may be a little too extreme in his words, but he is a sincere heart for the country and the people..." Cao Shi was the first to hold back, stood up, and then bowed heavily to the emperor and said loudly.

While speaking, he turned his head and looked at the important officials of the new and old parties who had a grudge against Wang Yang. The slightly red eyes were shining with danger and dysfunction.

That's very clear and clear. It's better for you guys to be careful and mess with me, otherwise we won't finish it.
