"No wonder you're here."

Chen Kai shook his head, but only smiled. Entering the courtyard, the maid who led the way just now waited for dinner, and when dinner was over, Chen Kai went out of the courtyard by himself, looking for the soothing sound of the guqin and soon came to the pavilion in the small garden.

"Last time I was in Guangzhou, Kuang Lu gave me a green Qi platform, which is said to be the leopard room of Emperor Wuzong. I couldn't play, so I gave it back to him. Now it seems that I knew that Zheng Xiaoniang was good at this, so she accepted it, and now she can borrow flowers to offer Buddha. ”

Chen Kai listened to the song quietly, and then smiled angrily. Hearing this, Zheng Xiyuan got up and saluted, but it was not like Chen Kai, but there was still a little worry that had not faded.

"The trip to Guangzhou was very dangerous, and the concubine felt terrified when she heard the people of Guangzhou who had moved to Kinmen. The concubine doesn't want any green Qitai, and it is enough to watch Chen join the army and come back with all the beards and shadows. ”

That encounter with "Chen Kai's Dunkirk", Zheng Xiyuan was one of the reasons that prompted Chen Kai to redouble his efforts, but it was not the main reason. Speaking of which, even without Zheng Xiyuan, Chen Kai once thought about working hard. Otherwise, if you don't do it if you have the possibility of working hard, I'm afraid you will be haunted for the rest of your life.

Now, after exhausting their efforts, about 300,000 people in Guangzhou have escaped, which is already nearly half of the total number of martyrs in history, and it is already a rare miracle with the organizational strength of the present era. Defeated Xu Long and Sheng Dengke, annihilated the main fleet of the Qing Army's naval division, and controlled the sea in hand, everything was promising, and he was also promoted to the level of Daotai, holding the military power of a battalion head, which can be regarded as a reward.

However, the girl's sentence "Wishing is enough" was still thrilling in Chen Kai's ears. Unexpectedly, without waiting for him to say something, Zheng Xiyuan shook his head and signaled him not to speak, just listen to her.

"The concubine has a lot of things to say to Chen Senjun, there are many things she wants to share with Chen Senjun, and there are also many things she wants Chen Senjun to teach and concubines. But today, the concubine only wants to play this song "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" for Chen Senjun, which is the concubine's praise for Chen Senjun's noble ambition and perseverance, and for those Han people who can survive because of Chen's efforts in joining the army. (Note)

Plum blossoms, Zhi Gaojie, ice muscles and jade bones, Ling Han lingering incense, has always been the object of the literati and ink writers. This "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" is originally a flute song, most of which are based on the expression of grievances and emotions, and it has been a qin song in the Ming Dynasty, and it is mostly a song of Acura plum blossoms, and the noble and unyielding temperament is the performance content.

Not as straightforward as modern music, traditional culture emphasizes more artistic conception, which requires a calm mind, quiet feeling, experience, and aftertaste, and so on.

In the small pavilion, the sound of the piano is melodious, turning thousands of times. Chen Kai has not received such an education, and his original feeling for this kind of artistic conception is lower than that of readers in this era. Fortunately, Zheng Xiyuan's piano skills did not live up to her father's boast, at this moment closed eyes and listened, no need to sing, no narration, a cold plum white and fragrant, windy and proud, pictured in Chen Kai's mind, until the end of the song, the dark fragrance has not dissipated.

After the song was played, Chen Kai and Zheng Xiyuan didn't say anything more, and they didn't need to say anything more, everything was silent. After looking at each other for a long time, Chen Kai left early the next morning and returned to Xiamen Island.

In the barracks not far from the port, the Zhangquan Sub-patrol Battalion was still practicing. This time, Chen Kai threw out some methods such as push-ups that modern people use to exercise their physical fitness, and it is said that they are still effective, but it is difficult to say whether it is true, after all, he is not a front-line military officer. For the rest, Chen Kai handed it over to Lin Dezhong to lead by himself, and the battle array was still the Spanish phalanx, and it was this time that Chen Kai justifiably obtained permission from Zheng Chenggong to equip the bird gun and the tiger squat cannon, and this patrol standard battalion can be regarded as a mixed force of light firearms and cold weapons.

The soldiers were still sweating on the school field, and Chen Kai soon noticed a thin guy. There is no need to go over to take a closer look, Chen Kai also knows that this "benevolent brother" is the woman named Nie Yiniang who was confirmed to stab Xu Long to death by many unwilling Guangzhou volunteers, and now she is wearing a military uniform of the Ming Army, bunching her hair up like a man, holding a spear several times her height with difficulty, and shouting and stabbing loudly with the robes around her.

"She hasn't backed down yet?"

It's only been a day since I think about it, but this "woman who has made war exploits" is still practicing like a man on the school field, which really makes Chen Kai feel a touch of familiarity.

"I think that the words that the female man I said earlier when I joined the army are not easy to mess with are indeed very reasonable."

With her military exploits, Nie Yiniang repeatedly asked to join the army, so that she could avenge her brother and husband in the future. This matter has been in trouble as early as when Chen Kai has not left Nanao, but the Ming Dynasty has not been without female generals, the loyal Marquis Qin Liangyu and Qin Liangyu's daughter-in-law or something, they have all been in battle, and the daughter of a guard officer of Jinshanwei has also been a female general in front of the palace of Emperor Yongli, Chen Kai has no theoretical basis for refutation.

Qin Liangyu's matter, Nie Yiniang is not very clear, but Hou Shizhen died in the third year of Yongli, at that time Li Chengdong was anyway, and he was in Zhaoqing, many Guangzhou people who had been to Zhaoqing during that period had heard of it, and the news of this woman being a general was nothing new in Guangzhou.

This Nie Yiniang didn't cry or make trouble, she just fought on the basis of reason, and the results reached Zheng Chenggong's ears. God knows if Zheng Chenggong is happy to see Chen Kai's jokes, but he persuaded Chen Kai to let her try the hard life in the army, and she won't be able to survive in a few days.

In this regard, Chen Kai didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he simply let Nie Yiniang go into the camp to have a look. As for whether he can persist or not, it is not his responsibility. Of course, even if she persists, Chen Kai doesn't plan to let her hang out with a group of men in the camp and be an ambulance, which is also beneficial to the morale of the army.

Chen Kai remembers that equality between men and women is the improvement of women's economic ability and the needs of war and production. In this era, it is unrealistic to play any equality between men and women, but he has never thought that there is no war potential for women as a group, especially when men go into battle to fight, women can fully support an industrial system, as long as industrialization reaches a certain level.

The standard battalion is still training step by step, and there are no combat tasks for the time being, and it seems that too much energy was consumed last year, and the Qing troops in Fujian and Guangdong provinces have temporarily entered the stage of resting and recuperating. The coast of Xiamen Island is calm as usual, but on Zheng Chenggong's side, a storm is descending on the head of this Qinwang army.

Note: The guqin song "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" has nothing to do with the TV series adapted from Qiong Yao's trilogy, don't make up the lyrics and tunes of "Hongchen has its own infatuation, Mo Xiao's infatuation is too crazy".
