Chapter 411: People's Hearts!
Chapter Four Hundred and Eleven
In the empire, the reputation of Honglu Temple has long been rotten.
The responsibility of Honglu Temple is to receive the nations and be responsible for etiquette matters. It only needs to be responsible to the emperor. There is no communication with princes, nobles, children of aristocratic families, and common people.
Therefore, Honglu Temple is very partial to all the nations.
It is not surprising to Wang Chong that Honglu Temple will appear in this kind of place.
"Buzz!"
While talking to Huang Qian'er, the crowd became restless. The dense crowd suddenly parted like a wave, and several guards from the practice field came out dragging the blood-stained corpses of a man and a horse.
Behind them, scarlet was painted on the ground, leaving a long and obvious bloodstain.
A smell of blood came to the nostrils, seeing the man's wide-open eyes, open mouth, and the big hole pierced through his chest, Huang Qian'er showed a look of unbearable surprise, and quickly glanced over.
"It's the forbidden army!"
On the other side, Wang Chong's face was also slightly dark.
He had actually heard about this incident in the northern city of the capital in his previous life. But hearing it is one thing, actually seeing it is another.
The young imperial guard said that he died at the hands of the Tibetans in Uzbekistan, but in fact he died at the hands of Honglu Temple.
"Bastards, those bastards from Honglu Temple, you should really drag them down and feed them to the dogs!"
"They maintain these fans everywhere, so they probably took their money!"
"Hmph, all the spies of the Tang Dynasty are probably in Honglu Temple!"
"This group of Wang Badan knows that foxes pretend to be powerful and bully people in the capital. They like Zhufan so much, so send them to Zhufan!"
...
Seeing the bloody corpse, the crowd became excited again.
"Hahaha, did the prince hear it? Did you hear it? The fight hasn't started yet, but these people from Tang Dynasty have started to make a fuss by themselves."
In the inner circle of the training ground,
A charming and muscular figure like a mountain stood upright. Dusong Mangbuzhi, a general of the Uzbek Empire, listened to the curses of the people around him, with a smile that was not a smile at the corner of his mouth.
This challenging action was completely the result of the eldest prince's willful actions. Dusong Mangpoje totally despises this kind of children's fight-like competition.
Not in favor, but not against either. But now, Dusong Mangpoje found some fun.
It was obvious that they killed people, and those who died were also people from Datang, but in the end, people from both sides of Datang started to scold each other.
"Hey, what's the matter, Mr. Dusong, my proposal is not bad. As I said a long time ago, our operation this time has no danger at all. Wrong, there is no surprise at all. The current Datang is no longer The former Datang is gone. They no longer have the qualifications to be our opponents!"
The eldest prince rode a barley horse and said proudly.
The conversation went back and forth, but they were all spoken in Uzbekistan.
"The eldest prince should not be too careless. There is a saying in China that says that a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and a centipede is dead but not stiff. The Tang Dynasty is indeed not as good as before, but it should not be underestimated."
Dusong Mangbu Branch Road.
He still maintains a cautious attitude towards Datang, but one thing he has to admit is that after entering Datang twice, the current Datang is no longer the powerful, powerful, and daunting war empire it used to be.
It has lost that kind of hard-edged, aggressive spirit!
"Hahaha, don't worry, General, I know what to do. After today, we will leave Datang and return to the Empire. In more than three months, we can go back to do business!"
The eldest prince laughed.
Dusong Mangbuzhi nodded, and gestured slightly to the side. A Uzang cavalryman slapped his horse's back and rode out, running around the training ground.
"Listen up, all Tang people in Middle-earth! The eldest prince said, you masters in Middle-earth are really vulnerable! Don't say that we Tibetans in Uzbe look down on you. Is there anyone in the younger generation of Middle-earth who can stand up to you?" Those who fight. The Eldest Prince will give you one more chance, if there is no one to fight, the Eldest Prince will leave!"
The Uzbek Tibetan cavalryman's horseshoe burst, but this time he didn't speak in Uzbek Tibetan, but shouted out in the language of Central Earth.
Although the voice is jerky, the accent is even more strange. But everyone understood the content of the words.
"coax!"
Hearing the unscrupulous voice of the Tibetans in Uzbekistan, everyone was excited again. Datang has always been the only one who bullied others, even if he was bullied to the door by Tibetans from Uzbekistan, and he was presumptuous in a place like the capital.
Some people have already been furious.
"Let's fight! Everyone, hurry up and fight!"
"Is there a powerful master? Go and take him down!"
...
People looked around. Some children from aristocratic families with strong strength couldn't hold back immediately, but just as they wanted to go out, they were immediately held back by members of the family.
"You are crazy! This is the eldest prince of U-Tsang, you really hurt him. Honglu Temple is a trivial matter, but if you really hurt the eldest prince, it will cause war between U-Tsang and Datang. This kind of Can you bear the consequences? Can the family afford it? You bastard, are you doing this for your own desires, and are you trying to bring disaster to our family?"
That stern look made the passion that had just boiled cool down all of a sudden. Among the crowd, those children from aristocratic families who had some strength were immediately deterred.
Wang Chong stood on the periphery of the crowd, listening with his ears, watching with his eyes, and bursts of hidden worries flashed across his pupils.
A great prince of Uzang cannot shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, and a master of the forbidden army who is killed will not hurt the empire. Frankly speaking, even those who are equivalent to "charming enemies" in Honglu Temple The policy is not enough to affect the situation of a battle in Datang, and the outcome of a battle.
These are trivial matters in the capital.
Wang Chong was worried about another thing:
Heart!
A person was injured, with a knife and a sword, blood flowed out, and it could be seen soon. The wounds on the human heart cannot be seen at all.
"Frozen three feet, not a day's cold." The collapse of the empire did not happen overnight. Before anything ferments, there will be subtle signs.
And the human heart is the clue of all these signs.
When the people of Honglu Temple issued these orders, they would not know the blow to the hearts of the empire; the onlookers in front of them, who retreated because of various scruples, would not know the blow to the hearts of the empire. .
Only after this incident happened, after many years, and looking back, everyone will suddenly realize how traumatized people were in their hearts during this incident.
There has never been a person who could kill and injure so many people recklessly in such an important place as the capital, and finally leave successfully.
And in the entire Divine Continent of Central Earth, under the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is actually no one who can defeat him!
The challenges of foreign countries and various Hus have never happened in the capital before, but this is the first time that a Hu, a foreigner, has won a complete, thorough and overwhelming challenge in the middle-earth challenge for the first time. victory!
This is a complete humiliation to Datang!
The people of Datang are proud and proud, so this incident will have a greater blow to the hearts of the empire.
Although there are factors that the Great Prince of Uzang took advantage of his own identity, and there are also factors of Honglu Temple, but when the matter spreads, those who hear it will not know about it.
They only know that right at the foot of the emperor, where the geniuses and elites of the entire Tang Dynasty are concentrated, so many people can't do anything to a Tibetan from Uzbekistan.
People's hearts are deeply frustrated by this.
Coupled with some subsequent defeats, the once proud, self-respecting, self-respecting, and self-confident Datang people were completely knocked down, full of lack of confidence, even low self-esteem, and even self-doubt.
When the hearts of the people are scattered, this is the real collapse of the empire.
It also made Wang Chong feel deeply heartbroken.
Wang Chong didn't deal with the fifth prince's affairs, but ran over to deal with the Uzbek Tibetans' affairs. There was also a deep reason for this.
When Wang Chong first heard about the Uzang envoys, he had doubts and associations. And Eagle's words only verified his guess.
"Eagle, is my armor ready?"
Sitting on the horse, Wang Chong suddenly spoke.
"Ready."
The eagle nodded, and said solemnly: "According to the young master's order, I have already asked people from the Zhang family in the capital to transport it here in advance."
Wang Chong nodded slightly, with a satisfied look in his eyes.
After several months, the huge deep-sea black iron gate that was discovered in the lair of the iron-clothed horse thief was finally transported back to the capital smoothly, and transported to the territory of Zhang's family in the capital.
The Zhang family in Beijing attached great importance to this deep sea black iron gate weighing seven or eight thousand catties. When transporting the iron gate, elder-level figures were sent to escort it.
When he arrived at the Jingshi family, he even summoned the most elite swordsmith masters among the elders of the family to carry out this matter in person.
Even the Patriarch of the Zhang family in the capital got involved.
A strategic grade material like "Deep Sea Black Iron" is no small matter, not to mention, what Wang Chong discovered was seven or eight thousand catties, enough to cast seventy to eighty sets of Deep Sea Black Iron heavy armor.
Putting such a thing in any empire is very important and cannot be underestimated. If it weren't for Wang Chong, even the Zhang family in the capital would not be qualified to touch such things under normal circumstances.
So it is conceivable that the Zhang family attaches great importance to this matter.
For the first piece of armor cast for Wang Chong's own use, the head of the Zhang family in the capital personally supervised the entire process. Wang Chong's original intention was to only forge a pair of armor.
However, the head of the Zhang family in the capital city wrote in a letter saying that he would use the best and strongest swordsmith, and then find the strongest inscription master to add the best and most solid inscription array for Wang Chong, and cast a pair of swords for Wang Chong. The strongest battle armor, to represent the Zhang family in the capital's heart and respect for Wang Chong.
Wang Chong was going to refuse. But after thinking about it, I finally accepted it. Frankly speaking, Wang Chong himself is full of expectations for this pair of armor that he has not yet obtained.
