People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 84 The old man left the Yellow Crane Tower in the west, and a hundred thousand sailors went to Yangzhou

"Rumors only stop at the wise, but even if the wise see through the rumors, they can't convince the people, otherwise they can accomplish what they preach, why should we work so hard to create rumors?

And it doesn't matter whether the story is true or not, and whether the logic has no loopholes. People love to listen to it, and our goal has been achieved.

Also, it is human nature to be good at being a teacher. Those wise men have noticed the loopholes in the story, and they will definitely publicize it in order to appear wise, but his dissemination itself is the goal we need to complete. Anyway, no one will listen to their teachings, so why should we care? ? "

Zhang Yi's words can be regarded as accurately grasping the mentality of those who think they are wise men, and Lao Zhu thought so too.

He pursues the logic and believability of the story too much, which is precisely the least important thing for rumors.

Communication itself is meaning.

Whether the story is true or not, it doesn't matter if someone debunks it.

There is only one purpose behind spreading these things, and that is to tell the people in a way that the people can accept.

The imperial court is doing one thing, and this thing is of vital benefit to the people.

Whether it is beneficial or not, as long as the people are willing to accept the vaccination method, he will naturally understand it.

The people who have benefited will naturally be grateful to the court and the emperor.

"How to do it specifically? You can't let the emperor really ask local officials to come out to cooperate, or order a great Confucian to come out and sing the opposite?"

Zhang Yixiao:
"No need, stories are stories, rumors are rumors...

Just like the boy, I said that the magistrate of Shangyuan County was beaten to death by his wife yesterday, will you go to Shangyuan County to verify it?No, even if one out of a hundred people goes there, will it affect the spread itself? "

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

What this kid said made a lot of sense. If it were any other emperor, Zhang Yi's methods might make them look down on him, but Lao Zhu was different.

Deep down in his heart, he actually didn't mind this method,

After all, Lao Zhu can do things like letting the school inspectors supervise the officials, so he and Zhang Yi don't want to laugh at the second brother.

Zhang Yi said:
"We just need to send people to wine shops, teahouses and other places, and pretend to be various people to spread the rumors. If there are not enough people, we can also buy those thugs in the local area and let them spread the rumors.

In this case, the court will actually be less aggressive in propaganda, and don't be afraid that the court will lose its prestige, because this matter has nothing to do with the court on the surface.

The imperial court only needs to do it step by step. Even if the people find out that the rumors are rumors, what does it have to do with the imperial court? "

"But that's just a rumor after all..." Zhang normal couldn't help but said.

"Does it matter? If public opinion is like a knife, it also depends on where the knife is used... People died of the plague every day in the Ming Dynasty, and the court could live countless lives if it was promoted one day earlier. What harm does the rumor itself cause? ? We're just spreading the right message in the wrong way, aren't we?"

After Zhang Yi finished speaking, he smiled:

"What's more, we are just chatting here after all, and the one in the palace can't hear it!"

Zhang normal: ...

Zhang Yuchu: ...

Zhu Biao: ...

"It's interesting that later generations will call this kind of organized rumor spreading people the navy...

This method of using the navy to manipulate public opinion is also considered an advanced means of combat, just like Sun Ziyun: "Going up the army to attack and plan", this method will be called cognitive warfare in the future...

The meaning of cognitive warfare is far more profound than what you understand! "

Zhang Yi sold the key here, but didn't start it, but Lao Zhu vaguely realized it.

"Water army? Cognitive warfare?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed when he heard the words. If he understood this kind of propaganda as combat, he seemed to have mastered the skills Zhang Yi said!
Is the so-called cognitive warfare a new form of warfare in the future, but there is nothing new under the sun, and all its theoretical roots are actually the ones played by the ancients.

This incident was passed by Zhang Yi, but Lao Zhu silently remembered it.

He didn't get entangled in this matter, but took out the manuscript that had been copied and handed it to Zhang Normal.

"Your uncle, I copied a copy of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" from your father. This book is very interesting. I stayed up all night and read it...By the way, what is this?"

Lao Zhu handed a painting to Zhang Yi.

"what!"

Zhang Normal had never seen this painting himself, and when they went over to take a look, they were all stunned by Zhang Yi's portrait.

It's not that Zhang Yi's paintings are so good, but that they have never seen such a way of painting.

Of course, this is normal. At this time, it is still 200 years before the prototype pencil stick of the pencil comes out, not to mention the way of drawing that appeared after the invention of the pencil.

"What kind of painting technique is this?"

Zhang Yuchu also asked.

"sketch!"

Zhang Yi answered honestly.

"It seems, dad is just like the real one!"

Zhang Yuchu's words spoke out the hearts of the people. If Zhang Yi's painting method has any artistic conception, it can't be said, but the Zhang in his paintings is normal, just like, almost exactly like a real person.

This technique is not common in the Chinese paintings that are currently popular in China.

"I want to draw too!"

Zhang Yuchu raised his hand and took the lead in making his request.

Zhang Yi would naturally not refuse things like raising his hand.

After he finished speaking, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao became interested.

Zhang Yi took the rest of the pencils and simply drew a picture for everyone.

His drawing skills are average, but in the field of sketching, no one in Daming can match him.

Through black and white light and shadow effects, the characters are vividly reflected on the paper.

Everyone who gets their own portrait is amazed.

"Rarely, your painting skills, although not as good as those masters, and you can't talk about artistic conception, but you can also start a school..."

Zhu Yuanzhang got what he wanted, said goodbye and left.

Going out to get in the car, Lao Zhu fell into deep thought.

"Water Army..."

"Father is still thinking about Zhang Yi's cognitive battle?"

"That's right, the method Zhang Yi said is feasible, I plan to give it a try..."

It is a very novel experience for Zhu Yuanzhang to use the method of cognitive warfare internally. If this method is used well, it seems that it can open up a new way of thinking for him.

However, whether what Zhang Yi said is as effective as imagined still needs to be verified.

"Look back, let Gao Jianxian take someone to Yangzhou, and try this method!

Although I don't have a navy of [-], if the trip to Yangzhou is done well, it's not impossible to form one! "

"Father, why do you care so much about Zhang Yi's methods...?"

Facing Zhu Biao's question, Zhu Yuanzhang just gave him a deep look.

When Zhang Yi talked about cognitive warfare, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered one thing, the right to spread...

This kind of thing, before Zhang Yi proposed the "cognitive warfare" of the navy, this kind of thing had been in the hands of scholars, or the scholar class.

Even the king can't get involved easily!

Perhaps, the so-called naval tactics,

When the emperor and scholars compete for the right to spread, they can get back some advantages!
　I asked for leave today to visit the tomb, but I can’t write more than ten thousand words a day, and I will probably write about seven or eight thousand words every three days.The author of the following chapters will change it to 1 to [-] words.This is probably the most I can write as a part-time writer. Yes, is it okay to vote for a monthly ticket recommendation?
