Why did he do this?
Cao Jing naturally had his own selfish motives. The Fighting Soul was filled with resentment after its death. If it turned into an evil spirit and wreaked havoc on Zhen Hun Street, the fighting power of the evil spirit would be even more terrifying. Therefore, he did not just want to seek justice for the tens of thousands of Fighting Souls that Li Er had sacrificed for the Tang Empire. Instead, he wanted to use the strategy of setting up a stone tablet to record their achievements in the past, so as to prepare for the tragedy of eliminating the Fighting Souls and turning them into evil spirits in the future.
tragedy. That's right, it was a tragedy in his eyes!
If the War Spirit had died in battle for the Great Tang, but after death, she had turned into an evil spirit and been killed by him. Cao Jing could not bear to see her die, but he had no choice but to kill her. This was a tragedy!
Therefore, he could not help but sigh again.
"The cruelest world in the human world is to have achievements, but after death, they are forgotten and no one worships them."
"Those who died protecting the Great Tang should be recorded on a monument so that the world can admire their peerless achievements?？？”
Second General Li, the Emperor of Tang, took these words to heart, and his eyes suddenly flashed. He could tell at a glance that the monument to commemorate their achievements would have an impact on the Tang Empire.
What was morale?
When they were alive, they had achievements, and when they died, they had people to pay homage to. The morale of the army naturally gathered!
Cao Jing was right. The cruelest thing in the world was to be forgotten after one's death. No one went to pay their respects.
If this monument was erected to record their contributions, then the soldiers of the Great Tang would naturally not fear battle!
This was fighting spirit, an eternal fighting spirit!
After Li Er understood, he was so excited that his entire body trembled. A monument should be erected to record his achievements so that the world can admire his peerless achievements.
Not only could this method unite the morale of the Great Tang army and raise its fighting strength to a whole new level, but he might even be praised by the people and gain the hearts of countless people.
However, Li Er also knew that it was inappropriate to erect a monument for the Tang soldiers who had died in battle.
Since ancient times, it was the civil officials and generals who erected the monument for the world to admire. They paid great attention to the matters after their death, so in these hundreds of years, the invisible distinction between superiority and inferiority had been engraved into their bones.
So what if tens of thousands of your soldiers died for the Great Tang? Finally, he was a commoner soldier and a hereditary military household.
You were born to fight to the death for the sake of civil officials and generals, kings and generals. Who would care about your glory after death?
However, what the civil officials and generals did would be recorded in the annals of history. After death, there would still be a memorial service. This was the difference!
Li Er knew that this gap existed in the Great Tang as well, and it was deeply rooted.
If he agreed to build this monument, he would definitely be opposed by some people. It would be fine for the military generals since they were all his direct subordinates, but those civil officials would definitely criticize him.
What should he do now? How should he choose?
Li Er's eyes flashed as he clenched his fists tightly. There was even a cracking sound.
A moment later, he slowly unclenched his fist and made up his mind!
Only when the soldiers were fearless could they fight to the death for the Great Tang, pacify the four directions, drive out the barbarians, and give the Great Tang eternal peace!
So what if the civil officials objected?
He had martial arts, and the Tang army obeyed his orders, so what was there to fear?
Moreover, he could still win the hearts of the people. With the support of the people of the Great Tang, who would dare to act presumptuously?
After Li Er thought it through, a smile bloomed on his face. A confident aura was born from his body. At this moment, the emperor's might was displayed.
"Good!"
"General Cao's words have touched my heart. I deeply agree!”
"Those who die for the people of the Great Tang will naturally receive the tributes of the people and civil and military officials of the Great Tang. They cannot be erased, nor can they be forgotten!”
Li Er waved his hand and made a decision."A monument should be erected to record his achievements so that the world can admire his peerless achievements!”
"Hu! Whoosh! Phew!"
Behind him, the black-armored soldiers, the Golden Guards, and the patrolling soldiers were gasping for breath. They had been greatly shocked by Li Er's decision, but they were even more ecstatic. From now on, even if they died for the Great Tang, they would no longer be nameless people who died on the battlefield. The world would remember their achievements.
This was called a worthy death!
"Hua! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
As Li Er spoke, the fog of resentment surrounding the tens of thousands of soldiers who had died for the Great Tang vanished. They were clearly very satisfied with this result.
"Very good!"
Cao Jing's eyes narrowed slightly. With the disappearance of the resentment, there was no longer the risk of becoming an evil spirit. The street was naturally peaceful.
At this moment, Li Er thought for a moment and seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Cao Jing and said with a smile,"I thank General Cao for coming up with this plan for me. Therefore, I need General Cao to give this stone tablet a name, okay?”
Cao Jing thought about it and said without hesitation,""The soldiers of the Tang Empire are born as warriors, and after death, they become War Souls. This stele is called the War Soul Stele.”
