"Your Excellency has said it before. You must also understand that Tiancheng does not like to pursue glory and wealth, but Tiancheng is also not the kind of person with old-fashioned ideas. Tiancheng's way is to lead the second division to join His Highness the King of Thailand, which will attract many colleagues. Although Tiancheng still did this, Tiancheng will not be afraid of people's words." Huangfu Tiancheng also took a careful sip of tea and expressed his thoughts and opinions: "Tiancheng is a soldier. Logically speaking, soldiers can only You need to obey the orders of your superiors and don't need to care about other things, but we Tanghe people have an old proverb that says every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, even every man is responsible, not to mention that Tiancheng is still a soldier?"
"Look at the various situations in the empire over the years. Your Excellency should know more than Tiancheng. The Tanghe nation is declining step by step. In addition to the Liberians who are constantly harassing the north, the Macihan people in the south have us Tanghe. Lei Juetian, who was abandoned by the empire, quickly rose up and peered into our southern hinterland. The Japanese in the east took advantage of the short-sightedness, shallowness and shamelessness of our dignitaries to devour our precious land in the Atlantic Ocean. The nomadic peoples in the northwest The border invaders have been invaded for years, the people on the border are living in dire straits, and the imperial army is on the verge of collapse. How can such a country and such an army protect us simple people and common people? And look at the so-called upper-class elites and noble gentlemen living in the imperial capital. In addition to enjoying Besides squandering the wealth and materials created by the people at the bottom of their lives, what else have they done and what else will they do? Tiancheng dare not say that these people are just cancer and garbage parasitic on the body of the empire, but what they do is indeed real It is shaking the foundation of our Tanghe national civilization."
Ma Yuanwang and Huangfu Tiancheng must have known each other for some years, but they tried their best to maintain a mutually respectful superior-subordinate relationship. Huangfu Tiancheng never deliberately flattered him, and Ma Yuanwang seemed to be able to understand Huangfu Tiancheng's thoughts, but the two People have never had a conversation about their views on the current situation, but today Huangfu Tiancheng opened his heart. Calmly, like an old friend, he introduced his evolution of thoughts bit by bit to his old boss.
"Perhaps many people think that if there is a change of emperor, maybe the Tanghe Empire will regain its glory, but starting from the first emperor, to Situ Lang, then to Situ Yuan, and even before the first emperor, the Tanghe Empire has actually been It has been gradually declining. Maybe Tiancheng’s ideas are a bit radical, but I have always believed that when an empire or a dynasty cannot support the historical responsibilities and obligations it should bear, it is time to change dynasties. The Tanghe Empire is old and decadent. It's gone. And it's rotten from the root. Tiancheng doesn't believe that the Situ family itself can solve this problem. The Tanghe nation needs a storm to wash away the stale atmosphere. Only with this problem can the Tanghe nation be reborn. "
"Does Tiancheng think that the leader who led the Tanghe nation to new life is Li Wufeng?" Huangfu Tiancheng's impassioned speech failed to impress Ma Yuanhua. As an old man who has experienced too much, it is difficult for Ma Yuanhua to be moved by him. These catchy-sounding words convinced me that maybe this was the difference between old people and young people, but this did not mean that Ma Yuanxiang could not see the situation clearly.
"From the current point of view, Tiancheng believes that no one can surpass His Royal Highness King Tai's ability and the right time and place. If the Tanghe nation just wants to stop moving forward. Maybe Situ Tai and Situ Lang can do it reluctantly, but the surrounding ethnic groups and The country is developing and progressing. If the Tanghe nation remains steadfast, its fate will only become more miserable in the future. The Tanghe nation needs an ambitious and courageous leader to regain its glory and achieve what the Tanghe nation should gain after rejuvenation. After all, the great Tanghe nation should stand proudly on the mainland and look down on all nations." When he said the last two sentences, Huangfu Tiancheng's eyes had a sharpness that Ma Yuanxiang had never seen before.
"Ambition and courage? Everything the Tanghe nation should get?" Ma Yuanwang also noticed Huangfu Tiancheng's wording. The other party did not use the word ambition, but used ambition. Everything the Tanghe nation should get seems to include too much. The meaning, and the sparkle in Huangfu Tiancheng's eyes fell into Ma Yuanxiang's eyes, and it all mixed together. Ma Yuanwang suddenly found that he seemed to understand why Huangfu Tiancheng chose Li Wufeng as his target.
Inside, they are more like the same type of people, with endless ambition and greed in their hearts, but this Huangfu Tiancheng hides it better than anyone else, and actually hides it so deeply under his own command, but Huangfu Tiancheng's greed seems to be Different from the various greeds of ordinary people, wealth, women, and power do not seem to be what he pursues. It should be said that what he pursues is higher in level. It is the pleasure of conquering others and being looked up to. Glory, Ma Yuanwang finally discovered the difference between the other party and his other subordinates that he had been thinking about all these years. It was the pursuit of this kind of excellence that caused the other party's performance to always be different from the others. When others When people were busy chasing fame and fortune, he only focused on training his army and constantly improving the combat effectiveness of his army. Huangfu Tiancheng may have never thought about settling down in the imperial capital for the rest of his life.
"Yes, do you think that our Tanghe nation has such a long and glorious civilization but we can only accept the bullying and contempt of these small countries around us? However, all of this should be changed. As long as we work hard, all of this can be done. It can be completely reversed and changed in our hands! History has given us a heavy responsibility. We can no longer let the war continue among us Tanghe people. This war should end as soon as possible, because we Tanghe people need to be in the empire. The land and ocean under the sun!" Huangfu Tiancheng's breathing seemed to become rapid at this time, and a faint blush appeared on his face that had always been calm.
Like the waves of the sea hitting Ma Yuanxiang's solid spiritual defense line, the words that burst out at this time under the calm and elegant exterior of the man who has been maintaining this calmness for many years undoubtedly seem to be a huge blow to Ma Yuanxiang. He never thought that his subordinate's chest would contain a passion like gushing lava. Huangfu Tiancheng's fanaticism had been so well hidden in the past few years that no one could understand it. learned.
"Tiancheng, although your idea is good, have you ever thought about it. If, if Li Wufeng thinks like you, let alone whether it is possible for him to achieve this step, as long as he moves in this direction, wouldn't it be necessary? Dragging the Tanghe nation onto a chariot that can never stop will make the Tanghe nation live in war for decades to come. This will cause thousands of Tanghe people to be buried in foreign lands! Have you ever thought about it? ?" Ma Yuanwang also couldn't control his emotions. The other party's idea was too crazy. He was even sure that perhaps his idea was in line with the intentions of that madman Li Wufeng. That's why Huangfu Tiancheng was so trusted and reused.
"My lord, the history of mainland China has always been written with iron and blood. Do you really think that mainland China will one day be established in a perfect, harmonious and social order without contradictions and competition? No, this is too naive, and it is not true at all. It is possible that if we cannot go all out to win all this, then we will inevitably be spied on by those countries and nations that have the same ideas. This is how the world is, the jungle of the jungle, the survival of the fittest, and there is never any compromise!" Huangfu Tiancheng! Deep down in my heart, my old boss’s naive thoughts and fantasies of peaceful coexistence are simply unrealistic. If the Tanghe nation does not grow and develop, the Liberians, the Japanese, and the Macchi Sooner or later, the Khans will pounce on this behemoth that also poses a threat to them. The past history of the mainland has proven this.
As a heavy hammer hammered down the wall deep in Ma Yuan's heart, he found that his opinions and ideas seemed so weak in front of the other party. Perhaps this is the difference between the younger generation and the older generation. When he repays his debts, he hopes that the empire can be maintained. When they were not being bullied by outsiders, these younger generations were already thinking about how to gather strength to fight back. Ma Yuanwang could not say that the other party's words convinced him, but at least Ma Yuanwang understood that what the other party was thinking in his heart was not that simple. He even found that deep down in his heart he was not so repulsive to some of the other party's ideas.
"Tiancheng, I don't think we can achieve better results even if we continue to argue on this issue. Your coming to see me today shows that I still trust my old boss. Maybe Li Wufeng has something to say or a request for you to convey to me. I, you might as well say it, I dare not give you a satisfactory answer, but at least I can give you an accurate reply." Ma Yuanqiang, who has weathered many storms, appears calm as a mountain even at any time.
"Your Majesty, please speak quickly, how dare Tiancheng dare to play tricks in front of you?" Nodding slightly, Huangfu Tiancheng finally came into contact with the substantive topic: "His Royal Highness, of course, hopes that you can stand by His Highness the King of Thailand in the future changes in the situation in the imperial capital. , but I know this is a bit embarrassing for you, but His Royal Highness the King of Thailand at least hopes that you can start from the perspective of a Tanghe person. When the Situ family is hysterical or crazy, I hope you can maintain the necessary calm and not help others. At least we should be responsible to the entire Tanghe nation, to the people of the imperial capital, and to history."
