    As soon as the Military Temple was established, it would not be difficult for anyone with a little knowledge to guess that the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty would completely change. Generally speaking, after a dynasty is established, as long as the political power is stable, the emperor, in order to maintain long-term peace and stability, will use military personnel to  The status of intellectuals will inevitably be weakened, and the status of literati will be greatly elevated.

    Even the former Sui Dynasty, which was famous for its martial arts, was like this. Yang Jian and Yang Guang were both good at literature. In the historical Tang Dynasty, after Li Longji restored the Tang Dynasty, with the arrival of the prosperous Kaiyuan era, the folk literary style flourished.

    Perhaps to other people, it is a sign of peace and prosperity, but in Du Rui's view, it is indeed a dangerous signal. "Although a country is big, if it is warlike, it will perish." This sentence is very popular, but people forget  Yes, there is another sentence behind it: "If you forget to fight, you will be in danger."

    ??You can¡¯t give up on martial arts!

    Although today's Tang Dynasty is the most powerful and powerful in ancient and modern times, it is by no means the time for "the swords and guns are stored in the warehouse and the horses are released to Nanshan". The world has not yet been wiped out, the ambitions of the two generations of emperors Taizong and Gaozong have not been completed, and the swords have not yet been put down.  .

    It is because of this reason that Du Rui advocates the spirit of martial arts and Li Xian builds a military temple.

    There is a way to work up and down. This has always been like this in ancient times. King Chu is so fine, and the folks are hungry. Now the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty advocated that the world is still martial arts, and naturally, he can bring a momentum.

    In addition to the Military Temple, there is another major event, that is, Du Chengxue, the Minister of Industry, who has just become the Duke of Yuyang, is listed in Lingyan Pavilion. Compared with the Military Temple, people obviously yearn for Lingyan Pavilion more. After all, Du Chengxue  If Rui is here, whoever dares to call himself the "God of War" in the world will not be allowed to join Du Rui, and they have no hope.

    But Lingyan Pavilion is different. Since its establishment during the Zhenguan period of Emperor Taizong, in addition to Situ Zhao Guogong's eldest son Sun Wuji; Sikong, the governor of Yangzhou and the king of Hejian Yuan Dynasty Li Xiaogong; Sikong and Lai Guochenggong Du Ruhui;  Wei Zheng, Duke of Wen Zhen; Fang Xuanling, Duke of Sikong and Liang; Duke Youpuse of Kaifu Yitong and Shangshu Youpushe; Gao Shilian, Duke of Shen; Wei Chigong, Duke of E and Wei of Kaifu Yitong; Tejin and Li Jing, Duke of Wei;  Te Jin, Rongguo Duke Xiao Yu; Fuguo General, Yangzhou Governor, Baozhongzhuanggong Duan Zhixuan; Fuguo General, Kuiguo Gong Liu Hongji; Shangshu Zuopushe, Jiang Zhonggong Qu Tutong; Shaanxi Province Daoxingtai Right Servant  She, Yunjie Gong Yin Kaishan; Jingzhou Governor, Qiaoxiang Gong Chai Shao; Jingzhou Governor, Pixiang Gong eldest Sun Shunde; Luozhou Governor, Yun Guogong Zhang Liang; Guanglu doctor, Libu Shangshu, Chen Guogong Hou Junji; Zuo Xiaowei  General Zhang Gongjin, Duke of Tanxiang; General Zuo Lingjun, Duke of Lu Guo Cheng Zhijie; Minister of Rites, Duke Wenyi of Yongxing Yu Shinan; Minister of Hubu, Duke of Yuxiang Liu Zhenghui; Doctor Guanglu, Minister of Hubu, Duke of Ju Tang Jian; Doctor Guanglu  , Minister of the Ministry of War, British Duke Xu Shiji; Governor of Xuzhou, Hu Zhuanggong Qin Shubao; Daxingtai Shangshuling, Prince Taifu, Duke Du Rui of the Song Dynasty; Minister of Rites, Li Daozong, King of Jiangxia County; General Feihuwei, Su Dingfang, Duke of Xingguo; Bo of Luzhou,  Apart from Zhongshu Ling Ma Zhou, no newcomer has ever entered.

    Because he invented the steam engine, Du Chengxue was ordered by the current sage Li Xianqin to be named Lingyan Pavilion. He immediately set a goal for everyone in the world: Please go straight to Lingyan Pavilion and be like a scholar with ten thousand households!

    What an honor it is to have your name listed alongside so many founding heroes. For a time, countless people in the world couldn't sit still.

    The name Du Chengxue is very unfamiliar to people. If it weren't for his status as a disciple of Du Rui, who would know who he is, but he just got the name Lingyan Pavilion.

    This made everyone in the world realize that they didn¡¯t need to be of noble birth or have a lot of talent and knowledge, as long as they could make contributions to the Tang Dynasty, they would still have a chance.

    Xue Rengui is one of them. He is a little unconvinced that Du Chengxue can be named Lingyan Pavilion. Du Rui's name is in it. He has nothing to say. If Du Rui is not qualified to enjoy Lingyan Pavilion in this world,  Then who is qualified?

    But it happened that Du Chengxue went in. Since the establishment of Lingyan Pavilion in the Zhenguan Dynasty of Taizong, no one in Yonghui has been able to enter. Du Chengxue was the first new person to enter.

    This made Xue Rengui a little unconvinced. Logically speaking, his contribution was not small. Although he failed to participate in Du Rui's conquest of Tibet and Dashi's war, he guarded Liaodong for many years, fought decisive battles with the Tungus people, and expanded the territory of the Tang Dynasty to the north.  Traveling tens of thousands of miles, this kind of contribution is not small, but he does not share it.

    Fortunately, there is an opportunity in front of him now. As long as he can capture Egypt for the Tang Dynasty this time, and then cover the entire African continent, he will definitely be able to write his name into Lingyan Pavilion.

    But some people didn¡¯t want him to get what he wanted, so Su Lin returned to Beijing.

    You don¡¯t need to think about Su Lin¡¯s purpose of coming to Beijing. He came for military power and wanted to lead the army to go on an expedition.  After Du Rui found out, he just smiled and said nothing.

    Su Lin is a rare good general. However, he has a fatal flaw. His emotions are easy to change.Determining his judgment, such character flaws make him only a general, not a handsome man.

    In this expedition, Du Rui himself gave up the opportunity to lead the army. The reason why he chose Xue Rengui was that he did not want to pin the safety of the Tang Dynasty on him alone, but wanted to focus on cultivating Xue Rengui to build a strong force for the Tang Dynasty.  An Optimus Pillar.

    If, as Du Rui expected, Su Lin arrived at Du Rui's house as soon as he arrived in Chang'an. He kept a very low profile and first admitted his mistake to Du Rui. After all, he returned to Chang'an privately.  Then, he asked for orders, willing to share the worries of the court and lead the troops to go out for a feast.  In this regard, Du Rui only gave some kind words and encouragement, but said nothing.

    Su Lin is still unwilling to give in. He wants to be the coach of this expedition. He urgently wants to avenge his father Su Dingfang. Although Ibrahim Mohammed is dead, the food has not been destroyed, and the great hatred has not yet been wiped out.  It doesn't count as retribution.

    "Brother! But I feel that my younger brother is not capable of taking on this important responsibility!"

    Seeing that Su Lin was a little excited, Du Rui sighed and said, "Yan Hui! You really can't take on this big responsibility."

    Su Lin was stunned. He had never expected that Du Rui would say this so bluntly. Su Lin was not convinced. In terms of military exploits, every time Du Rui went on an expedition, he was the vanguard, conquering Dashi.  At that time, he was trapped in the city of Bo Xide, and he never lost the city despite several attacks.

    Over the years, Su Lin has experienced a lot of wars, and he is highly valued by Du Rui. Although he also admits that Xue Rengui is indeed a military genius, this does not mean that he will be worse than Xue Rengui.

    Su Lin never expected that Du Rui would say today that it was difficult for him to take on such a big responsibility, which made Su Lin feel disappointed and even a little angry.

    Du Rui didn't wait for Su Lin to speak, then continued: "Yanhui! You are eager to avenge General Su and attack Dashi. I can understand this feeling. This time, you will not be punished for leaving your post without permission! Where are you?  The position is crucial. Whether the Tang Dynasty can seize the province of Egypt, your Persian army is crucial. I need you to contain them in the east of the Great Eclipse so that they cannot let go and compete with the Tang Dynasty in Egypt. You are a smart man.  , why can't you see this? You are so short-sighted, how can I entrust you with this great responsibility!"

    Su Lin was sweating profusely when he heard this. From Du Rui's words, he could tell that Du Rui was already a little annoyed and annoyed that he had left his post without permission.

    According to the military regulations of the Tang Dynasty, those who leave their posts without authorization must be executed. Su Lin had never realized how big a mistake he had made before.

    When he heard that the Tang Dynasty was going to attack the country, all he could think about was avenging Su Dingfang. However, after waiting for several months and receiving no orders from the imperial court, Su Lin finally couldn't sit still anymore and committed the crime.  Big mistake.

    "Brother! Little brother~~~~~~little brother knows his crime!"

    Although the laws of the Tang Dynasty are not as strict as the laws of the Qin Dynasty, the crime of leaving the post without permission for a general cannot be easily forgiven. Du Rui has always enforced the law impartially, and this time he was able to show mercy and spare him.  On the one hand, it was because talents were rare, and on the other hand, it was for the sake of his sister Du Yunfu.

    " Otherwise, even if Su Lin has nine lives, it won't be enough to kill him.

    Du Rui looked at Su Lin coldly and said: "Su Lin! If you are truly convicted, you will immediately return to your position. Central Asia was taken by countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who sacrificed their lives. Your father,  General Su Dingfang even died for it. If I leave it in your hands, even if the Holy Spirit doesn't punish you, I won't be able to spare you!"

    Dashi lost Central Asia. Although they were afraid of the Tang Dynasty's military front and did not dare to invade easily, if there were any omissions due to the lack of a leader in the army, Dashi would definitely not mind and re-establish their dominance in Central Asia.

    The importance of Central Asia is self-evident. Su Lin, who has been stationed in Central Asia for many years, naturally knows it clearly. Only by establishing a firm foothold in Central Asia can the Tang Dynasty be able to continue to advance westward and conquer the great food.

    "If due to his own fault, Central Asia fell, and the results that thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty paid for with their blood and lives were in vain, Su Lin would really die without redemption.

    Su Lin was scolded by Du Rui at this moment, and he also woke up. He knew how big a mistake he had made in a moment of impulsiveness, and hurriedly said: "Brother, calm down! I know my mistake!"

    Du Rui said: "If you know your mistake, go back today! If you want to fight, you can fight some battles, but not now. The Great Eclipse cannot be destroyed now. The Tang Dynasty is not ready to march into Europa with its troops. The rest of the words  You don¡¯t need me to say anything!¡±

    Su Lin was overjoyed when he heard this. Although Du Rui didn't say it explicitly, his meaning was already very clear. He would still be reused in the future expedition against Dashi and his army, Europa.

    "Thank you, brother!"

    Du Rui nodded and said, "Okay! You don't have to say anything, just go back!"??

    Su Lin returned to Central Asia overnight, and Datang was also ready for war.

    The steam engine has been knocked out in Quanzhou, where the first steam engine ship in human history will be born. Then the ship will depart from Quanzhou Port, bypass the Indochina Peninsula, enter the Indian Ocean, and then sail into the Arabian Sea to join the army.  , passed through the Gulf of Aden, passed through the Red Sea, and landed in Egypt.

    The day has finally arrived. At the Tai Chi Hall, all the ministers arrived neatly, and it can be described as a huge crowd of people.  Everyone knows what this great dynasty means.

    Pienaar also appeared in the Tai Chi Hall. These past few months have been like a year for him. Fortunately, this day has finally arrived. The Tang Dynasty is about to send troops, and his homeland can be saved.

    He doesn¡¯t know what the current situation is in Byzantium and whether Constantinople is still there. He can only pray silently every day or go to Du Rui¡¯s house to beg. Now he finally has the result.

    The Tang Dynasty is about to send out troops. The Tang Dynasty is finally going to send out troops.

    Li Xian was wearing an imperial robe, a crown on his head, and his big sleeves were fluttering. He walked quickly and looked very energetic. This young emperor already had the majesty of a human king.

    ¡°Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!¡±

    The ministers were present.

    Li Xian waved his hand and said: "My lords, please get back on your feet."

    Standing in front of the throne, he glanced at the ministers, who were all in high spirits. The Tang Dynasty, which had been silent for a long time, finally took out its sword again. Fighting on the battlefield and making achievements was the dream of all the men of the Tang Dynasty. How could they not  How can you not be in high spirits if you are happy?

    "Xue Rengui!"

    "I'm here." Xue Rengui, dressed in military uniform, stepped out of the queue.

    "Xue Rengui! I have ordered you to be the general manager of the march to the west, and I will entrust you with all matters concerning the conquest of Dashi!"

    Although this was something that had been decided a long time ago, when Li Xian announced it himself, Xue Rengui was still very excited. He quickly knelt down on the ground and knelt down to thank you: "I thank you for your kindness. If you go to war this time, I will never return the favor!"  "

    Li Xian nodded, and then said: "Xue Qing's family! This battle is very important to the Tang Dynasty. We must not take it lightly. Song Guogong recommends you to be the commander of this battle. I hope you will not let me and Song Guogong down."  expectations!¡±

    Xue Rengui bowed again and said, "I will keep in mind what the Holy One said!"

    Du Rui also warned: "When we march this time, we must keep in mind that our goal is Egypt and Africa. You must remember not to act on impulse, but remember it!"

    Xue Rengui nodded again and said, "I will keep this in mind!"

    Immediately after Li Xian awarded Xue Rengui a military talisman and a sword, Xue Rengui knelt down to receive it.

    Then all the ministers arrived in front of Chengtian Gate together. The army was already ready to go. Today's soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will not be timid against any opponent. On the contrary, they are happy to hear the battle. They all look forward to the day when they can make great achievements. Now this day has been  They were looking forward to it. They stood in front of Chengtian Gate early in the morning and were impatient to wait.

    Li Xian looked at the soldiers at the bottom of the city with bright armor, neat formations, and a murderous atmosphere. His heart felt happy and he felt very proud. These were his soldiers, loyal and brave soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

    Xue Rengui, surrounded by the generals, left the Chengtian Gate, got on his horse, drew out the sword given by Li Xian, and shouted loudly: "I will not return the court until the feast is broken!"

    "I won't break the feast! I swear I won't return it to the court!"

    Under the farewell of the people of Chang'an, the army slowly set off towards the city gate. Their goal was Egypt. Their footsteps would never stop until they won Egypt for the Tang Dynasty.
