To Four Thousand Years Later
v3 Chapter 153: Long distance and close attack
truth.
Know. This is the four-letter motto of the Rosicrucian Society. Today, it is engraved on his tombstone as Rosenklotz's epitaph.
His tombstone is not tall and engraved with his life's achievements, as a man of his position should be, but is short and small, only reaching the height of a person's thigh. There are very few things written on it.
Besides the four maxims, the last line is his real name, Lester. The entire tombstone has only five words, and the surrounding cemetery does not even have any decorations, but it looks very solemn.
This was also the wish of Rosenklotz during his lifetime.
Regardless of whether the face test is successful or unsuccessful, he does not want to be buried in a luxurious coffin, with a thick tombstone full of relief murals, and he puts everything he has done in detail, "I was alive when I was alive." I have never been greedy for material desires, so I should let future generations know my simplicity. This is not a noble act, but my words and deeds are consistent—if I am really not greedy for material desires, I should not even be greedy for things after death." This It was the words of Rosenklotz. If they are really not greedy for anything, why do they keep the precepts thinking about what they will gain or lose after death, instead of acting according to their heart? In Rosencrowz's view, they are no different from those poor ordinary people in Pingnan, and their hearts will not become pure and pure because of this.
Those people are working hard to save money. They don't eat extravagant things on weekdays, and wait until the holidays to eat good things. This kind of desire for the afterlife and the afterlife is nothing more than waiting for a long time this year. For this reason, Rosencrowz specifically asked Charles, his funeral and coffin, to be as low-key as possible. He also wrote such words in the prologue of his "Biography of the Great Emperor Zhili" to prevent Charles' reputation from being tarnished by not properly handling his funeral. But even so, future generations will probably forget him.
After all, all the contributions made by Rosenkreuz are of the kind that cannot be written down. For ordinary people, the only impression of him may be that "Wrote the "Biography of Charlemagne". He has developed a method of controlling psionic energy with his experience and knowledge, and even taught the merits of several psionic users who possess powerful psionic abilities but have upright views... all of them cannot be written. Otherwise, it will be difficult for people to understand why Haysan And Kawad VI will worship a historian from another country as a teacher. Even if you want to question the whole history...then the gain will not be worth the loss. And some of the evidence about King Solomon that has been verified, and the part that can be made public, all hide He recorded it in the "Biography of the Great Emperor Zhili" in a side-by-side way. As for the part that cannot be said, it was seen, warned and deleted consciously by Baimeng as soon as it was written. On the review system, if there is ai What a terrible thing. Three months after Rosencrowz was buried, when the spring was warm and the flowers were blooming, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty brought eighteen carts of silk, six carts of various books, and some gorgeous porcelain and mighty The sloppy envoy team arrived in Yashen. As a result, Charles was shocked when he saw the pale green name of the Tang envoy. This Tang envoy is an old man with a pen poison—although the old envoy is already very old , but his eyes shone with a dazzling brilliance. After seeing Charles, his pupils dilated and he was obviously surprised. But he didn't say much, but after showing Charles the seal of Emperor Tang, he knelt down without saying a word "The humble minister Guo Ziyi. By the order of my emperor, I come to pay a visit to His Majesty Charles, the new Holy King of Persia, King of the Franks and King of Goths. "
His words had strange power. Even if it doesn't connect, Charles can understand the meaning.
"Quickly please get up." Charles replied directly with elegant words: "Quickly give the envoy a seat." Floros responded.
Behind Guo Ziyi, the iridescent light folded, forming a gorgeous phantom of the seat, and then became solid.
"I have also heard about the demeanor of the envoys of the Tang Dynasty for a long time, but I just never saw it. Today I saw it and it really deserves its reputation." Charles praised: "Guo Linggong's name, I also heard it." Tang Wang can send a minister of the three dynasties like you to come to me, it is also enough to give me face.
...Your Majesty is really well informed. Guo Ziyi paused slightly, and said yes, but did not say anything else.
"In the past, when Pu Gu Huai'en rebelled, I also heard about it. It's just that I hadn't ascended the throne at that time, and I was still clearing up the bandits in Spain. Later, I learned about the news of the Tang Dynasty. It was you who lobbied Tubo, Huihe, etc. The matter of the country, Charles smiled slightly and said: "Even in Persia, your name is widely known.
Although he was half-deceived and half-deceived in the first half, his words were true. He also probably knew why Guo Ziyi was going to the envoy this time. The so-called long distance and close attack.
Charles and Tang are not geographically connected, and there are no territorial disputes. And their attitudes towards the Uyghur Khanate were the same vigilance, use and alienation. And because of the pressure from Persia and Tang, last year Guo Ziyi entered the court and asked for soldiers. He said that the local soldiers in Shuofang had suffered many casualties due to successive years of war. But now that Tubo has annexed Hexi, Longyou and other places, its power has increased greatly, and it is hoped that it will recruit 50,000 more elite soldiers. Stick to Shuofang. Afterwards, he resigned from Fenzhou and discussed the matter with Emperor Tang Dynasty Li Yu again, and he felt something was wrong.
If there is no increase in troops, once Longzhou, Jingzhou and other places are looted by Tubo, they will be unable to protect themselves. In addition, last year Li Yu married Princess Yongle to Tian Hua, the son of Wei Bo Jiedu envoy Tian Chengsi, and wanted to make friends with him, but it made Tian Chengsi even more arrogant. Finally, before the Heyang military rebellion last month, Tian Chengsi sent people to assassinate Xue Xiong, the governor of Weizhou, wiped out their family, occupied the land of the four states, and openly rebelled. Now if Charles can mobilize troops from Persia to harass Huihe and Tubo, Tang will have the opportunity to suppress Tian Chengsi's rebellion. However, after sending Guo Ziyi away, he narrowed his eyes slightly. If history continues to move forward according to its inertia... Tian Chengsi, a young boy who jumps repeatedly, may not die, and may help Li Lingyao's rebellion in the future, so it would be better to kill him all at once.
"Baimon," Charles thought for a while, then whispered, "Go find Phoenix.
