Chapter 16 Swearing-in Conference
In a dense sound of snare drums, Zhao Gongzi, surrounded by a group of senior police officers, ascended to the point platform.
Even the old man Gao Jiegao changed into an identical police uniform, but he did not have a police rank. The old man was already lofty, but at this time, he deliberately cleaned up, looking neat and spirited, like an old handsome, standing beside Zhao Gongzi with his head held high.
Standing on Zhao Hao's right hand was Zheng Ruozeng, who was also dressed up, and the old gentleman tried his best to refuse, but he still couldn't resist Zhao Gongzi's request, so he could only follow the stage.
As one of the two founders of Zhao Hao's naval theory, this punishment action against Japan is completely the embodiment of Zheng Ruozeng's concept of controlling sea power, how could he be absent from such a grand ceremony?
When everyone lined up on the platform, Tong Zigong shouted: "Salute!" ”
In the sound of the heel collision like a tide, the heavily armed police officers saluted, the empty-handed police officers raised their hands, and four thousand pairs of eyes eagerly watched the generals on the high platform, where there were famous anti-Japanese heroes, Director Tong, who loved soldiers like children, and Zhao Gongzi, the object of their allegiance.
The ceremony was presided over by Jin Ke, deputy commander of the garrison area, and first led all the police officers to sing the 'Acting Police Song' composed by Zhao Gongzi for the Tamna Garrison District:
"Thousands of miles to come back by the wind, alone in the East China Sea with spring thunder! Endure the loss of color in the world, and be willing to make the country pay for the ashes?
Turbid wine does not dispel the tears of the country, and when it is saved, it should be out of the crowd. Fight for 100,000 skull blood, and you must save the world! ”
Zhao Hao, who was dressed in military uniform, also sang this song seriously with the soldiers, composed by Xu Wei, who adapted it from the patriotic poem of the heroine Qiu Jin.
He originally wanted to borrow from the British or Japanese naval songs to compose a rousing and majestic march for the soldiers, but when he mentioned the pen, all that came to his mind was the face of the invader. Phew, disgusting!
In the end, it was Qiu Jin, the strongest voice who was fierce and full of patriotic enthusiasm. He felt that every word of this poem could resonate with him the strongest. There is no more heroic statement than this poem to convey to all the soldiers, full of vows!
Of course, this sonorous and powerful singing voice can be so infectious, and it is inseparable from the good score of the song.
Once again, you have to admit that the gap between geniuses and mortals is huge. The lone painter is not only the best poet in the military and the best calligrapher in the opera, but also the best in music. is the so-called proficient in everything, but still can't live a good life......
Only a hard-working person like him, who has thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in his heart, can he fully appreciate the painful and depressing background of this poem; Understand Zhao Hao's worries about the country and the people, and his anxiety, what is the reason? Naturally, we can better understand how valuable the generosity and positivity that are bred in despair and have no hesitation!
Xu Wei's poems taken out by Zhao Gongzi for the first time made his eyes red and his nose sour. With great enthusiasm, he composed this impassioned piece of music—first with a huge and majestic drum beating, accompanied by rhythmic cymbals, to set the surging tone. Then play a gripping main theme with Zhongruan!
The simple combination of three musical instruments constantly pushes the singer's emotions to the highest peak, and in the rough and majestic chorus of the soldiers, the emotions of national fortune and impassioned anger are directly rendered into everyone's minds!
The room is vast, and thousands of families are dreaming. The world rises and falls, who else is me?!
For the revival of my China, although I have died nine times without regrets!
Sea! Sea!! Sea!!!
~~
The old man with brain disease was able to sing along with the words clearly, and the old tears of singing were rolling, and he didn't know what this song reminded him of.
After singing an impassioned and blood-boiling military song, Jin Ke asked Zhao Gongzi to give a lecture.
Zhao Hao first solemnly announced to the soldiers that the Ming Royal Shipping Corporation had been formally established last month, and with the permission of the Longqing Emperor, the Sun and Moon Tonghui Flag was designated as the Ming Imperial Maritime Flag.
A rumbling salute was played on the flagship, and the blue cloth curtain on the windshield wall behind the stage was lit up, and as the pulleys slowly parted to the sides, a huge flag on the wall was exposed, the flag was bright red, and the sun and the moon were in the center, both yellow, hanging high above all beings.
The sun and the moon shine on the king's land. Wherever the fleet goes, don't disobey!
Under this solemn banner of the sun and the moon, Zhao Gongzi delivered a speech to his soldiers entitled "Our journey is the vast sea".
"Some of you know me, some don't know me, here to introduce yourself again, I, Zhao Hao, the leader of the Daming Royal Shipping Corporation, the chief superintendent of the coast guard, your chief scoop!"
"I am very pleased to see that you are all in good shape and ready to go today. Some of you are from the security team, some are from shipping companies, we have come together from all directions, and we have a common identity - the coast guard! ”
Zhao Gongzi set up a pair of huge iron microphones in front of him, so that his voice could be clearly transmitted to the ears of all the soldiers in the audience.
"A lot of people are muttering, what the hell is this coast guard? Is it a soldier for the imperial court, an errand for the government, or a personal bodyguard? ”
When the police officers and officers in the audience heard this, they couldn't help but smile embarrassedly, which is indeed a confusion for many people.
"We Chinese pay attention to a proper name in doing things, so today I want you to understand what the coast guard is and why we are fighting!" Zhao Gongzi said, glanced at Tong Zigong who was holding an ebony stick, and said with a faint smile:
"I believe you will not forget the first lesson that Director Tong gave you when you first joined the training team."
The four thousand soldiers tightened their chrysanthemums at the same time, and immediately recalled that during the training of recruits, Tong Zigong waved the spirit injection stick while speaking in that sharp voice:
'When you enter the security team (police force), even though it is windy and rainy, you sit with your hands high, and you have to eat three meals a day and see meat every day. The monthly money is more than a few for the officers and soldiers, and they are never in arrears. All this money is Jiangnan Group, and it is all paid to you by Gongzi. Which of you in your household is not a farmer? When you think about the hardships and hardships of farming at home to make money, you should think that it is easy to eat money today. I don't need you to farm, I don't need you to farm, I want you to raise the day before yesterday, but I hope that when someone threatens the group and the son, you will kill the enemy fiercely! If you refuse to kill the thief security group, what is the use of the son raising you? Even if the son is kind enough to raise you in vain, Lao Tzu will also burst your chrysanthemums a thousand times, a thousand times! ”
These words were actually born from Qi Jiguang's receptacle to the recruits, and no one in the world knows how to train better than Qi Dashuai. Because the soldiers under his command 'descend from the generals, no one in ten can distinguish Lu fish', Qi Dashuai always used such straightforward and rude words to convey the meaning to them simply and clearly.
Of course, Qi Dashuai will not threaten the soldiers with the words of 'exploding your chrysanthemum a thousand times', what he said is 'Heaven will kill you by human hands', but the effect is actually the same.
How many people join the army just to have something to eat? For people who can't get enough to eat, it's nonsense to talk about patriotism and glory to their ancestors. Only when we have food to eat and settle down can we train well, be trained in the future charge again and again, see the hope of class leapfrogging in military exploits again and again, and finally completely reborn into a soldier in the true sense.
Jin Ke, Wang Rulong, Zhu Jue, Tong Zigong, Ma Yinglong, didn't they all come over step by step? Therefore, they will also use the same way to brainwash this group of illiterate people who don't know anything and are purely here to mess around, supplemented by strict training, clear military discipline, perfect security, and generous treatment, and the tempered army will naturally not be bad.
But the situation here is still different from Qi Jiajun after all. Qi Jiguang recruited soldiers to fight against the Japanese, and naturally had the bonus of defending the family and the country, so as long as they were instilled with moral admonition and religion, the soldiers could easily understand who they were fighting for and why, and then let the army have a soul - the so-called military soul!
The spirit of the army is like the spiritual pillar of the army. Only an army with a soul can have faith and faith, can it maintain its morale in the face of adversity, never give up in a desperate situation, and be invincible and invincible!
This is the secret of the Qi family's army being invincible in the world. If Zhao Gongzi can't let his soldiers also have a military spirit, then no matter how generous the treatment he gives, how many thousand years of killings Director Tong sends, his coast guard force is still just a godless thing!
Again, the coast guard force may not be inferior to the Qi family army in a good fight, after all, the gap in equipment is there. But once they fall into the upper hand, no one knows what these coast guards will be able to do.
After all, they are not even officers and soldiers, and they cannot even call them 'navy' in a dignified manner, but can only replace them with 'coast guards'. And on this sea frontier, which is thousands of miles away from the mainland, it is difficult to have the sentiment of protecting the family and defending the country, so where does the military soul come from?
If you don't solve this problem and send these sturdy young men to the battlefield, Zhao Hao is committing a crime and committing suicide!
When he was in Jiangnan, he and Xu Wei had several secret discussions, and finally decided to try to get the coast guard force to be named the 'Ming Dynasty'.
Therefore, although the coast guard force actually belongs to the Jiangnan Group, the current full name is 'Daming Royal Shipping Corporation Tamluo Garrison Area', which can be understood as a set of teams and two brands.
Zhao Gongzi made such a painstaking arrangement, just to rub Emperor Longqing's love fart. With the title of 'Ming Royal', the officers and men of the coast guard will believe that they have been recognized by the Son of Heaven and will no longer have the idea that they are 'illegal forces'.
The founding of the dynasty for 200 years, and the most righteous country, the legitimacy of the great emperor in the hearts of the people is unparalleled. It's like the Japanese daimyo had to rub the emperor's love fart in order to win the support of the people and the deployment. Although the emperor did not command the Daimyo's army at all......
But this only solves the problem of identity, and Zhao Gongzi also needs to make the soldiers understand who they are really fighting for.
