Chapter 459: Song of the Army

"Can you do it well?" Yang Congyi raised his head and shouted.

"Yes!" There was a mountain of roars on the slightly higher slopes around the exercise ground, and the sound was heard.

"That's the end of today's day's training! Half an hour later, individual teams gather at the school field for an extra hour of training! After Yang Congyi finished speaking, he retreated from the field.

The officers of each team immediately walked out of the ranks, reorganized the formation, and announced the disbandment.

Back at the camp, the ordinary soldiers washed in the nearby river, and then went back to the barracks to rest.

"Today's training is very good, but many people may have doubts in their hearts and don't understand why Xuanwei Army is practicing these useless things. Why do you want to practice, I won't tell you today, after a while, you should be able to see for yourself what the benefits of such training are. Yang Congyi smiled at the generals.

During his inspection in the morning, he found that some teams did not pay enough attention to training, so he had no choice but to let the colonel thoroughly integrate into the training, so that the training could be carried out smoothly.

"Tonight we will learn the new training content, and tomorrow we will take the soldiers to train together, and don't forget to continue to implement the good training experience. Without further ado, let's get to the training for tonight. Yang Congyi smiled on his face, his hands drooped, and he stood still in front of everyone.

"All of them, Lizheng!"

"Take a break!"

"Stand!"

After the three commands, Yang Congyi said: "Tonight, we will learn to turn left, turn right, turn backward, walk in unison and run, a total of five training contents, and everyone must know it." ”

"To learn these training contents, first of all, we must be able to distinguish the four directions of the front and back, left and right, for the vast majority of people it is the left hand that holds the bowl, the right hand that holds the chopsticks, the body facing the front and the back facing the back, before teaching to let each soldier distinguish the direction, otherwise once the training will definitely be chaotic. You can all tell the difference, right? Yang Congyi immediately entered the role and began to teach a group of generals.

"Yes." A few people in the group of more than a dozen people replied.

"Since we are learning new training content, I hope that everyone will have a correct attitude towards learning, treat themselves as a new recruit, study with an open mind, and train steadily. Can you tell the difference between the front and the back? Yang Congyi said in a stern tone and asked again in a loud voice.

"Yes!" The crowd spoke in unison, and a deafening roar rang out of the barracks and into the ears of nearby soldiers.

At the end of the lecture, the training began very quickly, from turning left and right until walking in unison, first demonstrating and then explaining, until everyone was finished.

Then everyone stepped forward in turn to give orders, led the others to train three times, and after confirming that they had learned everything, they immediately began to learn the last item.

"I'm tired of training just now, so I'll find a place to sit down by myself, and I'll sing a tune to you." Yang Congyi suddenly laughed.

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and looked at each other with a look of disbelief on their faces.

"My lord, you want to sing? What's so nice about your singing, you really want us to listen to the music, give us a day off, and we'll go into the city to listen. Su Zhong was the first to coax.

"Yes, my lord, the people who sing the songs are all women, what do the adults sing like about it, don't sing it, it won't sound good to spread out." Luo Cong suggested in a positive voice.

Yang Congyi waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is not right, although I haven't studied much about it, but I know that in the Spring and Autumn Period more than 1,900 years ago, the Qin army sang a tune, and its words are a poem in the "Book of Songs", called "No Clothes", Lu Senjun and Shen Senjun should know, right?" ”

Lu You hurriedly recited: "How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear, and have the same enmity with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd, and work with my son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers, and go with my son!"

Yang Congyi nodded and smiled: "Yes, it was this song "No Clothes" that inspired countless Qin people more than 1,900 years ago, they sang "No Clothes", took up arms and fought bravely, fought desperately against the invading northern Rong tribe, and finally drove the alien race away and protected their own homeland. Now nearly 2,000 years have passed, although the tune does not exist, but the words have been circulated in the "Book of Songs" for thousands of years, and they have remained fresh for a long time. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Today I won't sing "No Clothes", I'm going to sing another song, let's call it "Song of the Army" for the time being." I won't talk about the origin of this song for the time being, and I'll talk to you more about it when I have time later. ”

After speaking, he sang loudly: "You don't see, the Han Dynasty, the weak crown is the captive, please be long; You don't see, Ban Dingyuan, the peerless light cavalry urges the battle clouds! The boy should be in serious danger, how can he let the Confucian crown miss this life? The situation is that the country is in danger, and the feather is constantly fighting! Abandon my old pen, with my wartime jin, call out more than 100,000 comrades, sing war songs and join the army. Qi joined the army, cleaned the dust, and swore to sweep away the Huns! ”

A song that resonates with your heart!

This military song, which was learned during military training many years ago, is still sung passionately, making Yang Congyi's blood boil.

The generals also heard it with a surge of anger, and they couldn't wait to hum along.

Especially Lu You and Shen Jin, they are scholars themselves, and the lyrics are written to call on readers to serve the country in the army, they are now in the army, and they feel very deep when they hear this song at this time, with a solemn face and open their mouths to speak.

Yang Congyi sang a song, calmed down his emotions a little, and then said: "Except for Shen and Lu in this "Song of the Army", the rest of you may not understand what is sung in the song, but after Lu Senjun or Shen Senjun explain it to you, you will be able to understand." First of all, do you like this song? ”

The crowd was speechless, and they didn't know what this question meant.

In silence, I only heard Lu You reply: "I like this song very much, the tune is generous and majestic, and the lyrics sound like people's blood is surging, and I can't wait to immediately cross the horse to the front line in Northern Xinjiang and start a desperate fight with the enemy!" ”

Shen Jin nodded and said loudly: "I have been in the army for many years, and I feel very deeply, this song "Song from the Army" inspires people to forge ahead, a good man should not just hold a scroll, devote himself to the imperial examination, and only hope for the nomination of the gold list, but also hold a three-foot Qingfeng, carry a gun and leap on a horse, and expel the thieves!" ”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, full of enthusiasm, and suddenly made up his mind, only to hear him say: "My lord, from today on, I, Shen Jin, will give up the scientific examination, and I want to learn from my ancestors and put pen to paper!" Shen Jin is willing to follow the adult! ”

After speaking, he got up and hugged his fists and gave a deep salute to Yang Congyi.

Yang Congyi was slightly stunned, this is a bit unexpected, Shen Jintai was born as a student, and it is not difficult to gain fame in the scientific examination, what he lacks is just luck, and now because of this "Song of the Army", he is going to put pen to paper, but it is very unexpected.

"Shen is not busy joining the army, joining the army is a very hard road, and it is not too late to make a decision after you stay in the general selection camp for a few more months and have in-depth experience." If he doesn't stop it, Shen Jin will be in a dilemma, it will be difficult to deal with himself, and he will be extremely embarrassed in the general selection camp.

Who knew that as soon as Shen Jin heard this, he thought that Yang Congyi was unwilling to keep him, and his face immediately changed, only to hear him say: "My lord, I am not a momentary spirit, I lost the imperial examination three years ago, and I already had the idea of retiring, and if I didn't win this year, I didn't have the intention of continuing to participate in the scientific examination." Three years ago, I recruited new recruits with adults, formed the Xuanwei Army, and participated in the training of the new army in the Changguo camp, and had a lot of exchanges with the soldiers, chatted with them, and taught them to read and write. As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Su Zhong, Luo Cong and others.

Yang Congyi saw that Shen Jin was so excited, if he suppressed his desire to join the army again, he was afraid that it would really cool his heart, so he said: "Okay, since Shen is determined to join the army, then from today on, you will officially become a recruit in the general selection camp." Normally, you have to participate in training with the soldiers, and you can't leave behind the responsibility of joining the army, how about it? ”

"Yes! My lord! Shen Jin's face was suddenly happy, and he immediately gave another salute, and then sat down again, but the hot blood rolling in his body made him straighten his back.

"Let's continue to talk about this "Song of the Army", the reason why I want to sing it to you today is actually to teach you that I can't just sing this song in the camp of the selected generals, you have to sing it, all the Xuanwei Army must sing it, and all the forbidden troops who participated in the selection of generals in the future must also be able to sing it when they come to the selection camp!" After Yang Congyi finished speaking, he glanced at everyone.

Seeing that a group of generals and colonels were eager to try, some even began to hum the melody of the tune of "Song from the Army", so he continued: "Today, let's learn to sing first, as for the lyrics, it doesn't matter if you can't remember it, wait for Shen to join the army and Lu to join the army in the evening to go back and write a few copies, you can copy it yourself and remember it, there should be no problem." ”

Lu You nodded and said, "I have roughly written it down, and I can memorize all the lyrics if I listen to it again." There aren't many words, I'll go back and write a few more copies in a while, and you can get them. As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at several generals.

"Thank you Lu for joining the army!" The generals thanked them in unison, letting them hold knives and guns, but it was a little difficult for them to write with a pen, Lu You was willing to write it down for them, and they were naturally happy.

Seeing this, Yang Congyi smiled: "Then let's start learning songs, I'll sing a sentence, and you will sing a sentence." Don't you see, Han Zhongjun! ”

Everyone opened their mouths and sang cautiously: "You don't see, Han Zhongjun." ”

A few people are beginners, some are afraid of losing their ugliness, their voices are not loud, and some are soft.

"Weak crown captive, please long tassel!" Yang Congyi taught to sing again.

"Weak crown captivity, please long tassel." Everyone learned to sing, but the voice was still not loud.

"Louder! Don't you see, Han Zhongjun! Yang Congyi continued to teach and sing the first sentence.

"You don't see, Han Zhongjun!" The second time I learned to sing, the voices of more than a dozen people finally became louder.

"Weak crown captive, please long tassel!"

"Weak crown captive, please long tassel!"

"You don't see you, the final army of the Han Dynasty, the weak crown is a captive, please be long!" After learning separately, it will be a continuous singing sentence immediately.

The rise of a crowd of people singing, tearing their throats, singing loudly, "Song of the Army" flew everywhere in the night, shocking themselves and the soldiers around them.
