The May night was already a little hot, and in the imperial study, the young king's words were loud and deafening, and for a time, the faces of the audience present were awe-inspiring, and they listened to the training.

The night breeze blew in quietly, blowing the curtains and lights, and the room was silent for a moment, Cheng Zhouhai and Wenren glanced at each other, and then arched their hands: "...... Your Majesty's words are very true. ”

"Your Majesty has this realization, and the country is very fortunate."

Zhou Pei on the side also nodded, Li Pin gave his hand, but he didn't immediately receive the order. Jun Wu's hands were pressed on the table, and after taking a few breaths, he slowly sat down, and when he saw several people below exchanging glances, he asked, "What's the problem?" ”

Wen Ren took a step forward: "Your Majesty's words are enough to lay the foundation for the future policy of my Wu Dynasty, and in my opinion, it is a great thing." The situation of the decisive battle in Hanzhong is exciting, and His Majesty said that if you want to release it, then let it out...... But before that, Wechen has something to say. ”

Jun Wu blushed slightly: "Say." ”

"Your Majesty Mingjian, the battle of the southwest to the decisive battle in Hanzhong, the news that the Huaxia army defeated the Jurchens, as long as it is released, it will definitely be very happy, my Wu Dynasty has been bullied by the Jurchens for many years, and the people of the Wu Dynasty have died at the hands of the Jin people. Therefore, Wechen supports His Majesty's decision, but under the general direction of this decision, there are some small problems, which Wechen believes must be observed. ”

Wen Ren paused: "First, while the people know the news of the battle in Hanzhong, how should we let them know the reason for the victory of the Huaxia army; Second, what Your Majesty said today is bright and upright, deafening, and the will to forge ahead and break the boat in His Majesty's words is also the cause of a country's rejuvenation, so when we release the news of the decisive battle in the southwest, is it simply to have fun with the people, or do we hope that they can also feel the same determination and urgency as His Majesty while knowing the news and feeling gratified......

His words were not spoken quickly, and the words were carefully considered. For a long time, Jun Wu's temperament has been relatively modest, conservative, and good at accepting advice, and although he is generous in life and death, he is just doing what he should do. is so impassioned today, but it is obviously greatly inspired by the Battle of the Southwest, and he has his own true understanding of the word enterprising.

Whether it is the way of the king or the grand strategy of a country, many times it is not wrong to be radical and conservative, and more importantly, the person at the helm chooses a direction, and then carries out a correct series of advancements. Although Jun Wu's choice seems difficult, it is by no means unreasonable, and even in the deepest part of his heart, everyone is more willing to move in this direction.

Hearing this, Jun Wu had already slowly sat up straight, and his eyes lit up: "It makes sense, I was reckless, and I drank some wine...... There's a lot of room for manoeuvre......"

Wen Ren nodded: "The Huaxia Army's defeat of the Jurchens in the Battle of the Southwest and the Battle of Hanzhong is not an exaggeration to say that it is a turning point in the world, so how to turn around, and where do we want the world to turn?" For example, in the past, His Majesty has always wanted to promote the study of Gewu, and there is a lot of resistance from the court and the people, and many people do not know what the benefits of Gewu are, then now is an excellent opportunity......

"Reasonable, reasonable......" Jun Wu banged on the table, then got up and took down a few wooden models on the wall behind him, "I've been asking people these days what the weapons used by the Huaxia Army in the Battle of Wangyuan Bridge. In fact, the principle is that it is a big second kick, but their filling is more powerful and the flight is more accurate, and the Huaxia army uses this to easily take 30,000 Yanshan guards with 7,000 people......"

The sky is like a weaving star, the night of Fuzhou City is quiet, and it is also in this quiet background that the emperor in the imperial study talks about the study of things, his eyes have lit up, and the whole person can't help but jump, he has realized something, and his emotions are even more excited. Zhou Pei walked out of the room and instructed his subordinates to prepare porridge and rice for supper, and in the study, the voices of Cheng Zhouhai and Li Pin also rang out occasionally.

“…… As for the advancement of the Ministry of Works, this is also an excellent starting point......"

“…… As for the concept of the Chinese army's management of the army, we can also deduce it again......"

“…… This needs to be done quickly, comprehensively, and preparedly......"

“…… In addition, you might as well order General Yue to take Quanzhou quickly, and you don't have to wait any longer......"

The room was full of chatter, and after a while, another staff member was summoned to discuss more matters. Zhou Pei walked out of the courtyard and walked into the quiet courtyard next door, she lit the candle flame and read all the intelligence information about the entire southwest campaign brought by her subordinates one by one, page by page, until she saw that Wan Yan Sheye Ma was killed and Zong Han Xiyin fled in the wilderness.

Then he sat quietly for a long time.

……

As the early hours of the first day of May passed, the sea level in the east rose a slight white. The curfew was lifted, the fishermen began to prepare for the sea, the officials of the port and the wharf were carrying out the work, and the refugees gathered in the east of the city were waiting for the early morning soup kitchen and the daytime statistics to start the work of entering the city.

Loud voices.

There were a lot of emotions brewing in his heart, and his fingers pinched lightly, counting the names one by one.

When he returned to the courtyard where he lived, he immediately summoned his subordinates, the staff of the newspaper office, and the Confucian scholars who were sitting here to talk and help from time to time, and quickly began to give orders and arrange work.

Some were given to take care of the meals, some were to be in charge of the carriages and horses at once, and many more were given a list of men who began to gather men all over the city...... This is the manpower reserve that has been paying attention to in the previous few months, most of them are young and radical Confucians, and some of the older Confucians with active thinking only account for a small part.

Those who received the order left the newspaper compound and joined the bustling crowd like drops of water into the sea. For Fuzhou, where hundreds of thousands of people gather at the moment, their total number is not much, but there are some things that have been brewing in such a deep sea......

……

The sun gradually rose, illuminating the city slightly.

Something big is going to happen......

At the end of the hour, Chen Cangji, who crossed the streets of Fuzhou and arrived at Fengheng Academy in the west, felt a different atmosphere, and many Confucian scholars had gathered here. Some of them are old acquaintances with each other, even if they don't know each other, they can see that many people have extraordinary bearing, they are all called by Li Pin and gathered over, and Li Pin has been a celebrity around the Son of Heaven recently, and it is obvious that there is something big about gathering people in a hurry.

People who knew each other communicated with each other, but for a while nothing came of it.

Around the clock, it is estimated that the number of people who came here has reached hundreds, and I saw Li Pin coming from outside. He first greeted everyone in general, and then went to the steps in front of the compound - the inner courtyard of the academy is a closed structure on all sides, and his speech is relatively clear - he stood at a table and waved everyone to be quiet before he gave up his hand and restrained his smile: "You can treat this gathering as a imperial examination. ”

This sentence is heavy.

After finishing speaking, the crowded crowd in the courtyard seemed to be a little quieter, and people thought in their hearts: The emperor is going to use people.

Of course, many years later, many more people will remember the words they heard that day later.

Li Pin looked around in silence, and then spoke: "What I want to talk to you about today is something very important, and you will be surprised and shocked. Because there are so many people, I would like to ask you to be prepared, and no matter what kind of news you hear later, please do not make noise or talk to each other for the time being, because from today onwards, there will be countless hours of discussion...... Now, I'm going to get started. ”

He pressed one hand on the table, and then stepped on the stool and went to the top of the table of the eight immortals, standing on a high place, he could even see the people at the back of the courtyard clearly, and then continued to speak:

"What I want to talk to you about today is the decisive battle between the Huaxia Army and the Jinguo West Road Army in the southwest...... I know that all of you here have heard a lot, but the situation in the outside world is chaotic, and all kinds of news are strange, and what you hear is not necessarily true, because of some reasons, before this, the court did not talk about these messages in detail with you...... But from today on, these messages will be announced, including the information that happened before and after the entire war in the southwest, and the information received by the court will be shared with you, and then through the articles you write, through newsprint, inform the people of the world! ”

There was a faint sound of "buzzing" in the crowd, but then it quieted down, and Li Pin took a breath: "The first thing I can tell you is that the big battle in the southwest has been fought. On April 24, the decisive battle of Hanzhong ended, Wanyan Zonghan and Wanyan Xiyin attacked the 20,000 led by Qin Shaoqian with an army of 100,000, and were defeated by 20,000 people head-on! Qin Shaoqian cut down his son Wanyan in front of Zong Han, and Zong Han fled in embarrassment, and since then, the Jurchen West Road army has been completely defeated in the process of going south, and there are not many people left......"

“…… Be quiet! I know you're all curious, and I'll show you all the information later...... After receiving such news, there are actually two thoughts in the court, one of which is, of course, to block the news, the discord between my Wu Dynasty and the Huaxia Army, everyone knows that some people feel that they should not tell this news, this is the enemy's ambition to destroy their own prestige, but in the early hours of this morning, His Majesty said something......"

"Ladies and gentlemen! That's what Your Majesty said—"

Li Pin bowed on the table, and then began to repeat aloud what Jun Wu said, which has its own embellishments and deletions, but the ambition to make great efforts to catch up is transmitted in the words. Someone couldn't help but speak, and there was a thin "buzz" in the yard. After Li Pin finished repeating it, he waited for a moment.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Your Majesty said this, it is really the words of the Ming Monarch and the Holy Monarch, but what is the deep meaning of Your Majesty's words? Over the years, the Wu Dynasty has never defeated the Jurchens, and the Huaxia Army in the southwest has been defeated. They can defeat the Jurchens, there must be their reasons, we can fight against the Huaxia army, but we can't ignore this reason, we can't help but open our eyes to see the reason why they are powerful, good things to learn, insufficient things to catch up! The world is changing, and I've been sitting down with you these days, and one thing is clear, sticking to the rules won't work—"

"Why do you want to release all the news about the southwest - I tell you that many adults in the court are unwilling, but we have to face up to the Huaxia Army and learn their benefits, this matter cannot be done in a day or two, and it is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words. So from today onwards, Your Majesty hopes that a group of people with flexible thinking can begin to learn to face it and analyze it......"

"You have to find out the reasons why the Huaxia Army is strong, and use your articles to tell the people of the world these reasons! Tell the world what we are going to do! At the same time, you can't think that the Huaxia Army has defeated the Jin State, so as long as the Huaxia Army must be good, you also have to see for the people of the world what problems and shortcomings the Huaxia Army has! And tell the world what we can't do, and why we can't—"

"You are all smart people, who have studied literature all your life, and hope to serve the country with useful deeds. Ladies and gentlemen, more than 200 years of the Wu Dynasty to today, the Wu Dynasty is in danger, we arrived in Fuzhou, there is no way to retreat, many people knelt down, the small court of Lin'an knelt down, countless people knelt down, the Huaxia army repelled the Jurchens for a time, but they were extreme, they killed the emperor, they wanted to destroy my Confucianism...... Their way is not going to work, and our way is to be corrected, we have to see, we have to learn, we have to learn from the good in it, and avoid its bad! ”

"Next, you don't just look at the information about the Huaxia Army, why are you gathered here today, and where is next to Feng Heng Academy, some of you know, and some don't know. Next door to the courtyard here, it is a branch of the Jiangning Gewu Institute after it was moved, the Huaxia Army implements the study of things, and deeply studies the rules of heaven and earth, for the southwest battle, appeared on the battlefield, especially the various peculiar weapons and firearms in the first battle of Wangyuan Bridge, the Gewu Institute has begun to deduce and study, this is about the Huaxia Army, some of the most important things about the future of the world, and everyone will have the opportunity to see and understand them later. ”

"And if you understand, you will be able to tell all the people of the world what the so-called Gewu in the southwest is."

Li Pin paused: "Regarding the war report in the southwest and Hanzhong, it is expected that it will be published in the newspaper tomorrow, and you will read and think about it today, of course, if there is a good article, it can be handed over to me tonight, and maybe it will be the first to appear in the newspaper tomorrow." But in general, there is no need to worry, you write about this war according to your ideas, write about the truth and lessons in it, but if it is well written, in the next month or a few months, we will put it on newsprint, and distribute it to the world one after another, and even complete it into a book, your words will be seen by countless people, and even Your Majesty will see your articles......"

"Next, if you have any ideas, you can tell me, in private, publicly, you can say it."

The sun had risen, the city was as busy as usual, Li Pin was hoarse in the courtyard, beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, and after a while, various voices sounded one after another, and he began to answer one after another.

The people gathered here were just the first people he could think of, and there might not be many people who could use them, but it didn't matter, more people would come over one after another. The signs of a revolution were emerging, and of course, not many people could have imagined its significance at that time.

When Li Pin talked about these things in Feng Heng Academy, Jun Wu had already personally asked about all kinds of things about Gewu Academy, including how to introduce the principles of Gewu to those scholars who visited, how to choose words, and how to be alarmist and frightening. In the court, arrangements for the reform of the Ministry of Industry were brewing, and in private, Cheng Zhouhai took over the work of spreading all kinds of public opinion and rumors. Although the people of the world are qualified to know the information of the Jurchens' defeat in the southwest, it does not mean that they must build momentum for the Huaxia army. It's an adult world.

The order to instruct Yue Fei to stop the slow negotiations and quickly capture Quanzhou was already galloping along the road with the war horse.

It rained heavily in Lin'an, and there was occasional thunder.

A few days later, Wu Qimei and others received the news and learned about the unusual movements that took place in the direction of Fuzhou......
