    The Fifth Chapter Road was in the west of what is now Yi County, Hebei Province. When Chen Wanrong and others rushed here to take a look, they saw tombs all over the mountains and plains.  It is not accurate to say that it is a tomb. To be more precise, it should be a grave mound. It is just a handful of loess without a tombstone.  One hundred thousand border residents have all become "anonymous". No one knows their surnames, where they live, and their ages.

    ¡°People who originally had names and families, but because of Mo Chuo¡¯s killings, their names are no longer known. This is a tragedy in itself.

    Looking at the graves one after another, Chen Wanrong's heart was up and down, and his chest was rising and falling sharply. His right hand involuntarily held the handle of the saber, wishing he could give it a blow.  A feeling of sadness came up, and Chen Wanrong's eyes couldn't help but become red and moist.

    Chen Wanrong has been wallowing in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ??blood. So far, he has cut off not a hundred but dozens of heads with his own hands. It can be said that his heart is as hard as iron and he cannot easily feel grief.  However, it is so miserable here. Even though it has been more than ten years, the tragic scene seems to be right in front of you, as if you saw it with your own eyes when the Turks killed 100,000 unarmed people. Anyone would shed tears.

    Wiping his eyes with his right hand, Chen Wanrong said word by word: "We must not let Mochu die too happily!"

    "Yes! We can't let him die too happily!" All the generals agreed in unison.

    Shen Que let out a long sigh and said: "Back then, the tragedy of Wuhu Dao spread, and the whole world mourned. Now, more than ten years have passed, and Shen has been here, and he knows how miserable it was back then! All the people of the Tang Dynasty should always remember  at this point!"

    Everyone was speechless and nodded in agreement with this statement.

    Tears welled up in Cheng Xiaotian's eyes, and he called out in a low voice: "Grandpa! Grandpa! If grandpa were here, this tragedy wouldn't have happened!"

    Cheng Wuting followed Pei Xingjian to quell the Turkic rebellion. In the Battle of Montenegro, only 30,000 Tang troops defeated 100,000 Turks, which made the Turks change their minds after hearing this.  In the ensuing war, the Turks were even more helpless, and their prestige became clear to the Turks.  Wu Zetian ordered him to guard the north. Later, the Turks were afraid of his reputation and did not dare to invade the border. They restrained his tribe and hid in the depths of the desert, unable to go south.

    At that time, the border was stable and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. There was a peaceful scene rare since Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.  But the good times didn't last long. In order to ascend to the throne of God, Wu Zetian killed Cheng Wuting regardless of everything.  Cheng Wuting's death was painful for his relatives and happy for his enemies. The Turks were the happiest. They slaughtered cattle and sheep and celebrated grandly. They were even happier than during the New Year.

    After Cheng Wuting died, the Turks no longer had any scruples and marched southward in large numbers. The Tang Dynasty was unable to cope with it, and the people at the border were plunged into dire straits again.  Only then did the tragedy of 698 AD happen, and the five chapters of Dao were stained red with blood!

    Everyone in the North knows this secret. In the final analysis, the sinner who caused the tragedy on Wuchao Road should be Wu Zetian. She did not care about the lives of the people for the sake of personal power.  However, due to political reasons at the time, people could not target Wu Zetian.

    When Cheng Xiaotian mentioned it, everyone thought he was right and couldn't help but sigh.

    "Long live the Tang Dynasty! Long live the Tang Dynasty!" Cheers resounded across the sky. The people who had heard the news and came to the scene cheered endlessly when they saw the arrival of the Tang army.

    The tragedy of the Five Chapters has spread all over the world and made many heroes cry.  At that time, the entire Tang Dynasty was shaken, and the people all shouted "revenge, revenge", but due to the political situation at the time, they failed.

    Today, after finally defeating the Turks, Mo Chui was captured, and he wanted to pay homage to the souls of the dead on the fifth round of the road. This is the best explanation for the border people who died unjustly. How could the people not come here.

    Looking at the simple and excited faces, Chen Wanrong was filled with emotion: "Later generations have praised Wu Zetian a lot, but her reputation is hard to live up to! The bad government is what she left behind, and the blood of the border people in the North is what she left behind."  It was caused by her mistakes. If I hadn't come to the Tang Dynasty, I wouldn't have known that Wu Zetian made so many mistakes!"

    The tragedy on the Five Chapters Road can be said to be the most tragic episode before the Tang Dynasty.  The massacre of 100,000 border residents at one time had never happened before, not even the tyrannical Huns could do it!

    "Kill Mochu! Kill Mochu!" the people shouted in unison.

    For this memorial ceremony, people had already been sent to build a simple altar, which was more than ten feet in size.  Zhang Shougui, Chen Wanrong and Shen Que led the generals to the altar.  The people cheered and surrounded him, and in just a moment, the crowd was filled with water.

    The chief priest was Shen Que. Shen Que clasped his fists and saluted: "Dear fathers and mothers, fifteen years ago, Mo Chuo committed a heinous crime here! He commanded the Turkic army to kill nearly 100,000 innocent people, and mourning flooded the fields and mountains.  They were all bones, and the ground was dyed red with blood! Later, the court sent people to collect the corpses, and the scene was horrific! Even though it has been fifteen years, we are still moved here today.In Longxi, food and grass must be prepared. Chen Wanrong firmly believed in this and said with a smile: "I'd better rush there as soon as possible. Years ago, someone from the Ordnance Supervision went to Longxi to build a workshop to produce cement. Although the letter stated  They say it's going well, but I still want to see it with my own eyes. This is of great importance!"

    The cement in Longxi is used to build roads to the Western Regions. This is related to the survival of the Western Regions army and is a top priority. Shen Que and Zhang Shougui both nodded and said: "In this case, the supervisory army will rush there first. As for the army  Regarding the matter, I just ordered them to come later."

    It was a pleasure to work with Zhang Shougui. Chen Wanrong did not say much. After thanking him, he, Yang Sixu and Wang Zhongsi, led a group of soldiers to Longxi.  This trip to Longxi was from the southwest. Chen Wanrong spent the night overnight and finally arrived at Longxi on the fifth day.

    Once we arrived in Longxi, we found out that Longxi had already been prepared and was just waiting for the army to arrive.  Needless to say, grain and grass are piled up like mountains and are still being transported here.

    The reason why Chen Wanrong brought Yang Sixu and Wang Zhongsi here was because the two were good at coordinating, and they would arrange the army's garrison and food, so that Chen Wanrong would have time to go to the weapons inspection.

    As soon as the big account was raised, Chen Wanrong immediately asked Yang Sixu and Wang Zhongsi to handle military affairs.  Yang Sixu naturally had nothing to say, but Wang Zhongsi took the opportunity to threaten: "Supervisor, it's not impossible for you to ask me to do something, but I have conditions."

    "Military orders are like mountains, no conditions!" Chen Wanrong refused.

    Wang Zhongsi did not give up and said with a smile: "Supervisor, if you take me to the Western Regions, I will work twice as hard."

    There must be a big battle when he goes to the Western Regions. Wang Zhongsi is very resourceful, so it would be good for him to go with him. Chen Wanrong is eager for him to go. However, Chen Wanrong pretends to be embarrassed: "That's good, but you are too young."  ."

    "You bully people! You bully people! You bully me for being young!" Wang Zhongsi was very unconvinced and almost cried.

    After the Turks have been defeated, the battle with Dashi will be the biggest battle in the Tang Dynasty in the foreseeable period. If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life, even if Wang Zhongsi is not in a hurry.

    The more anxious Wang Zhongsi became, the happier Chen Wanrong became. He blinked and looked at Wang Zhongsi: "I'll wait until you are older."

    The tone was firm and there was no room for negotiation.  Wang Zhongsi was a fan of the authorities. He didn't expect that Chen Wanrong was teasing him. He couldn't help but burst into tears. He sat down on the ground and kicked his legs wildly: "You are partial! You are partial!"  Woohoo!¡±

    Chen Wanrong was just teasing him, but he didn't expect him to cry. He was very surprised and said with a smile: "Haha, Wang Zhongsi, you also cry sometimes! Will the emperor agree?"

    Wang Zhongsi wiped his tears and jumped up from the ground. He was very happy and said with a smile: "Jiangjun, do you agree?" A pair of bright eyes looked at Chen Wanrong eagerly and expectantly.

    "You have to listen to me!" Chen Wanrong's face tightened.

    "I will definitely listen to you! If I don't listen to you, I will be a puppy!" Wang Zhongsi was busy confessing his love.

    "Go and do some work!" Chen Wanrong ordered, and Wang Zhongsi responded briskly and went to work.

    Chen Wanrong thought to himself: "How are Master Zhang and Master Cao going after they came to Longxi? I ??have to go and see!" He turned around and left, riding Qinghua, straight towards the weapons supervisor.  (To be continued. If you want to know about the funeral, please log on to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters.
