Baidu otaku as Chongzhen

Chapter 107

The first year of Chongzhen.

March [-], afternoon.

Yang Reform took a good nap and was about to go out for a stroll.

Wang Chengen walked in quickly and said, "Report to the emperor, the secret box just received."

Secret box?This thing seems to be used by Mao Wenlong alone!Yang Reform quickly took it over and looked at the lock, it was intact and the seal was intact.He took out the key again and unlocked it.

There are a few pieces of paper inside, a letter from Mao Wenlong.In half a month, the box traveled from the capital to Mao Wenlong's hands, and then came back again.

"Sir Mao Wenlong bows across the sea to my emperor, long live, long live, long live..."

"...The minister thanked His Majesty for giving the military salary. The soldiers were full of gratitude, and they all said that Your Majesty is a benevolent king and a sage. He will definitely repay His Majesty's kindness with blood."

"...The few things that His Majesty explained, I have already prepared. The soldiers of Dongjiang, who have been trained for many years, are about [-] soldiers, and another [-] are auxiliary new recruits. They will cultivate in peacetime and assist in wartime. Another seven to eighty thousand are brave enough to take part in the battle with a little training, not to mention field battles, it is enough to defend the city."

"I will definitely act in strict accordance with your Majesty's will and not let any suspicious materials enter Liao. Please also send an angel to manage the import of Dongjiang's materials as soon as possible, and I will kowtow again..."

Mao Wenlong reduced the number of soldiers to [-] this time.It's almost halved from before.Yang Reform thought about it, Mao Wenlong was almost squeezed out of the number of soldiers.Forty thousand, not too much, not too little, enough to restrain the wild boar skin.No matter how many soldiers there are, it's time for him, Mao Wenlong, to have a different idea.

How to reply?
After thinking about it, I took up a pen and wrote on the paper: "I have received the letter on March [-]th. I am very relieved to hear what Mao Qing said. I already know about the soldiers of the Dongjiang River. You must train diligently to prepare for future wars." , don’t be negligent.”

After thinking about it, he wrote: "As for the military salary, the monthly 10 taels of military salary will be delivered on time. Mao Qing doesn't have to worry about the military salary, and must concentrate on training."

"As for the management of the customs, I already know that someone will come to take over in a few days. You must keep my words in mind. Except for luxury goods, others are not allowed to enter the customs. Anyone who dares to bring contraband into the customs will be killed .”

That's all I wrote to Mao Wenlong.

Originally, there were still many things to explain and do.

In fact, Mao Wennong has already agreed to "do business in partnership" with the emperor, and he hopes that the emperor will take over the management soon. , if you have the ability, go to the emperor.It's a pity that Yang Reform doesn't have any reliable manpower here. Of these three classes, only the Sheren class has opened.The eunuch class and Jinshi class haven't opened yet, so the manpower is really unreliable.

Also, regarding military affairs, Yang Reform planned to make some reforms, or put some sand in Mao Wenlong's place. Unfortunately, the Sheren class did not graduate, and there was no manpower. It was a problem.

I hurriedly finished writing the letter to Mao Wenlong, and prepared to seal the box. After thinking about it, I should not send it out for the time being. After thinking about it again, it seemed that I was a little too impatient, and there was something missing.I forgot about the choir.

My choir seems to be on the stage, and Dongjiang's condolences should also start. I don't know how the song is doing. This empire needs idols, and soldiers need dream lovers. This will help In order to improve the morale, courage, and belief of soldiers, it is conducive to the unity and stability of the army. From the experience of the 21st century, it is very necessary to create such one or several imperial idols and dream lovers.

"Let's go, companion, go to Guo Huan's place." Yang Reform stood up abruptly and shouted to Wang Cheng'en.When it was over, I added another sentence: "Teachers Sun and Xu are invited to go too."

……

Xiyuan.

Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi were puzzled, why did they only meet each other in the morning, and were taken into the palace again before doing business in the afternoon?He was also called to Xiyuan.

……

"I don't know why Your Majesty called the minister to Xiyuan?" Sun Chengzong asked.Why did you come to Xiyuan for no reason?Xu Guangqi also looked puzzled.

"Hehe, it's like this. I have prepared a choir, and I am going to go to various places to condolences to the soldiers and improve the morale of the soldiers. I would like to invite the two masters to take a look and see how the effect will be."

Sun and Xu are baffled, condolences to the frontier army?Still singing?Lao Jun usually sends someone to deliver some food, drink, and some money. Even if he is a laborer, he still sings condolences?It can't be something like Lao Shizi's army prostitute, right?Xu Guangqi's face turned dark on the spot, and he said, "I want to report to Your Majesty, Your Majesty should govern the country with benevolence and benevolence, instead of sending a group of poor women to the frontier army for their pleasure. They were all born and raised by their parents. Why should they be treated so Humiliation? A prostitute, a vulgar military man did it, so it’s hard to say too much, Your Majesty is a wise king, holy master, why did you do such absurd things and be taken advantage of by others?"

Yang Reform was inexplicably reprimanded by Xu Guangqi, feeling very wronged.He opened his mouth and explained: "Master Xu wrongly blamed me. I didn't plan to send any camp prostitutes there. It was a choir. Alas, the two masters still come with me. Let's see and talk. I think this thing is good for improving morale. It helps a lot."

Not sending military prostitutes?Xu Guangqi also felt embarrassed, and he said that the emperor had a meal for no reason. Although he was an "emperor's teacher", it was too careless to teach the emperor a lesson for no reason.

……

Guo Huan was very happy to look forward to the arrival of His Majesty and his party.

"My servant Guo Huan kowtowed to see my emperor, long live, long live, long live." After kowtowing to the emperor, he saluted Sun and Xu.

"Get up, Guo Huan, how is the choir getting ready?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I would like to inform Your Majesty that the choir has mastered the songs and tunes and is ready to perform for Your Majesty at any time."

"Hehe, it's not for me to perform, oh, no, it's also for me to perform... In this way, I will see the effect first. If it is possible, I will assign you a difficult task. If you do well, you will all be rewarded."

"Of order, Your Majesty, the servant girl will start now."

"Well, okay, let's start." Yang Reform sat on the stand, ready to enjoy the singing of the choir.Sun and Xu sat on both sides, ready to see what the emperor was talking about about the choir.

……

The first song is "On the Liao River". (Adapted from "On the Songhua River")
It really is a big killer.

As soon as this song was finished, Xu Guangqi said with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I am guilty, and I have wrongly blamed Your Majesty... The voice of this song is slightly hoarse, desolate and mournful, and the sound is inspiring, especially for the people who have betrayed their homeland in Liaodong." , when I hear this song, I will burst into tears, my heart will be very miserable, a little guidance, the anger of revenge will definitely burn, once this song comes out, it will surely be able to reach thousands of warriors."

It was also the first time Sun Chengzong heard this song, and he was filled with emotion. He also felt that His Majesty's thoughts were really strange, and he thought of using songs to improve morale.After thinking for a while, he said: "Your Majesty, I have read that the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty besieged the King of Chu at Gaixia, surrounded by songs on all sides, and the King of Chu collapsed without a fight. These beleaguered songs, the ancients were sincere and never deceived, His Majesty used this song to inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers and people in Liaodong, presumably it will get twice the result with half the effort, and it will have a miraculous effect..."

Faced with the compliments of Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi, Yang Reform was also a little proud. This art troupe has such a glorious history in later generations.It has a high bonus effect on the cohesion, combat effectiveness and will of the army.I traveled over here by myself to engage in gun barrels, how could I miss this thing?Of course, you can't tell others about this, so you can only have fun in your heart.

"Hehe, two masters, this is the song I created specifically to deal with the Eastern captives. The purpose is to inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers and civilians in Liaodong, to stimulate their blood in their bones, and to arouse their determination to revenge." Yang reformed very proudly.

"Your Majesty, this strategy is feasible. Your Majesty is really the Holy Master." The two said in unison.

……

The second song is "Serving the Country with Loyalty".

This song has been sung in court, and Sun and Xu thought it was nothing more than that.How do you know that once this song is sung in chorus, the soundtrack will have a very different effect. In addition to the impassioned men's chorus, there are more than ten pieces of Guzheng soundtrack. The scene is extremely grand. The killing spirit on the battlefield was overflowing, the gold and iron horses, the blood was boiling, and the hearts of the people were beating wildly, like swords, lights and swords flashing before their eyes, extremely dangerous.The sound of the guzheng sometimes expresses generosity and pride in a high-pitched way;

Finished.

Sun Chengzong came back to his senses after a while, and said: "Your Majesty, this song really urges people to be full of enthusiasm and pride. The veteran is like returning to the battlefield, full of strength, as if ten years younger, ready to fight the enemy at any time So-so. Use this song to boost morale, great kindness."

Xu Guangqi stroked his beard, his eyes seemed to be fixed on something, firm and fanatical.

"Hehe, move on to the next song."

The third song is "My Hometown". (adapted from "My Motherland")
……

The fourth song is "Linjiang Fairy". (The theme song of the old version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms used the words in it.)
……

After singing a few songs, Sun Chengzong and Xu Guangqi burst into tears.Originally for the sake of the country, I broke my heart. I don’t know how much sadness and grievances are buried in my heart. When I was inspired by this shocking music, I couldn’t help it anymore and cried bitterly.

Yang Reform's life is far less rich than that of Sun and Xu. He came to the Ming Dynasty and was also an emperor. He didn't experience many bitter and bitter things. In addition, he had heard these songs earlier, so he was immune.And those people in the Ming Dynasty who were dedicated to serving the country and the people, but were repeatedly treated unfairly, were drawn by the soul-penetrating power of music, and hooked up the sad and miserable things buried in their hearts, and could no longer bear it. , crying and venting.

Yang Reform did not expect that this song would have such great power that it would make the two old people cry.Why don't you feel much?I just think it's strong enough and sounds good.

How did Yang Reform know that Sun and Xu had experienced so much sadness and helplessness in their lives, how many things they had gone through, how many unknown things they had buried in their hearts.

The man did not cry easily because he did not reach the sad spot.
