Soon, the eleventh and twelfth teams also passed through, and the performance of the 100 teams of the Guardian Center was also not as good as the previous ones, and the performance of the second-year students of the Lecture Martial Arts Hall was about the same as that of the first-year students.

When the last team came out, Yun Xi himself was not in the mood to watch it, so he turned his head to Jin Chun and said, "The students of the Martial Arts Hall have practiced well and are worthy of praise." Jin Chun, these second-year students, if they didn't make any mistakes from now until they graduated, the punishments that should have been revoked in one year but could not be revoked due to lack of time would have been revoked; For first-year students, the punishment for carrying on their backs will be reduced by one grade; Team leader, I heard you say it's Zheng Xuan? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Jin Chun replied.

"The secretary has everything from the seventh grade to the ninth grade, and Zheng Xuan's secretary I remember that he was promoted from the seventh grade to the seventh grade." Yun Xi said. Kim Chun promised.

Yun Xi said again: "I have one more thing to hand over to you,......

As he was talking, he suddenly saw Jin Chun's face change slightly, and his eyes were staring at the school field below. Yun Xi was curious, turned his head and looked at the school field, and at this time, he saw an extremely surprising scene.

I saw that everyone in the marching team had their waists very straight, even the two teams of students from the martial arts hall were slightly inferior; That's fine, but the horizontal row is also very neat, and the footsteps are slightly messy, but it is much stronger than the other guard teams.

The footsteps of the kicking step are not very uniform, and it is similar to the team of students of the martial arts hall, but the final circle is a little chaotic.

On the whole, this team can be said to be on par with the team of the students of the Lecture Hall.

Yun Xi asked, "Which guard's team is this?" ”

Li Bo, the guard standing beside him, was also very surprised: he did not teach the hundred households selected by the Shangzhiwei, but he also heard that it was not easy to teach them, who knew that there would be a team that could reach such a level.

When he heard Yun Xi's words, he hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, it is the team of the right guard of the government army. ”

"Husband's right guard? The commander is Song Xuan? Do I remember that there was a conductor who was Li Zengzhi? Yun Xi muttered to himself.

"What about Song Xuan and Li Zengzhi? Let them come over. Yun Xi said to Li Bo.

Li Bo immediately went to find it. The two of them were not on stage, but with their own team, and Li Bo could only get off the stage and go to the team that had completed the review to look for it.

……

……

Song Xuan put down the clairvoyance in his hand and said to Li Zengzhi: "The final turn is a bit chaotic, otherwise you will be able to surpass the students of the martial arts hall." Now on the whole, I'm afraid it's not comparable. ”

Li Zengzhi also put down the clairvoyance in his hand and said hatefully: "Why is it not good in the end!" ”

"Don't reprimand them later. They did a good job, we didn't think of any good way to solve the chaos in the first place, and yesterday's rehearsal just happened to be so good that it could be used as a rule. Song Xuan said.

"But," Song Xuan's words Li Zengzhi of course understood, and he actually felt that it was right in his heart. But he was bent on letting the team of the right guard of the government army overwhelm all the other teams, but he was unwilling to let it fall short because of some chaos in the end.

But Song Xuan is a commander, although he has a high background, he can't disrespect the officials, so he can only suppress his anger.

Song Xuan praised his team, and just as Li Zengzhi was about to pinch his nose and praise them, Li Bo came over and said to them: "Commander Song, Li Tongzhi, Your Majesty has summoned you two. ”

Li Zengzhi was completely reluctant to praise them, and when he heard that His Majesty had summoned him, he immediately agreed, and followed Li Bo to the rostrum; Although Song Xuan felt that it was inappropriate, he couldn't say anything, so he instructed hundreds of households and followed him to the rostrum.

Yun Xi saw them and said with a smile: "Of the eleven teams that go to the direct guard, only you have performed well, and you can almost be compared to the students of the Martial Arts Hall." ”

"However, I want you to answer my questions. How exactly do you train these soldiers to perform so well? ”

"Your Majesty, the minister and Commander Song have thought of some tricks." Li Zengzhi said.

"What's the trick?" Yoon-hee asked.

Song Xuan opened his mouth to introduce.

It turned out that after Song Xuan and Li Zengzhi watched the training of the hundred households selected for five days, they concluded: It will definitely not be able to form after a month, and if there is a vertical line on the ground, it can still be guaranteed not to become a snake; If there were no vertical lines on the ground, it would not be strange to form a snake that was entwined.

The two of them began to figure out a way. Song Xuan suddenly thought: 'Since there is a vertical line on the ground that can ensure that it is straight, if there is a horizontal line on the ground, can it ensure that it is flat?' ’

He immediately put it into practice. According to the distance of most people's steps, he drew countless horizontal lines on the school field of the right guard of the government army, and asked them to put their toes on the horizontal line at every step, so that certain results were achieved.

But it's still not particularly neat. At this time, Li Zengzhi, who was suddenly ill and rushed to the hospital, resorted to a trick similar to corporal punishment: he ordered people to make a large number of long wooden planks and tied them to the bodies of four people in a row.

At the same time, in order to ensure that their backs were straight, Li Zengzhi spent his own money to buy 100 white poles that were about the same length as their backs and tied them in their clothes, so that their backs could not be bent even if they wanted to. At today's parade, they all had wooden planks hidden in their clothes.

Yun Xi listened to their words and suddenly realized: "I said, why do you think their movements are very stiff, and their backs are unnaturally protruding, I see." You're really going to figure it out. ”

Although Yunxi praised them, he was not very happy in his heart. He wanted to ask them about the tricks of their training so that they could be promoted, but except for the horizontal line on the ground, which could be promoted, the rest did not have promotion value.

If it weren't for the high reward given by Yun Xi, if it weren't for Li Zengzhi's own money to buy these things, if it weren't for Song Xuan's high prestige in the right guard of the government army, if it weren't for the fact that the right guard of the government army was originally an elite army, if it weren't for the fact that the food of Jingwei has been greatly improved recently, Li Zengzhi's approach would not work at all. Under normal circumstances, if they do it for two days, which is equivalent to corporal punishment, the soldiers dare to disobey the order and disrespect it, and this is a special case within a special case.

However, Song Xuan and Li Zengzhi are still worthy of appreciation, and Yun Xi praised the two of them a few more words.

Li Zengzhi was very happy. Since he was a child, everyone thought he had no ability, including his dear father and eldest brother, which made him very unconvinced: I am not a wine bag and a rice bag. This time he finally proved it.

Li Jinglong, who was on the side, was also happy for his younger brother: he had just listened to Song Xuan and Li Zengzhi's narration, and he also thought that their approach had no promotion value; But after all, Li Zengzhi has almost completed His Majesty's task, and there will definitely be a reward.

Sure enough, "Spread my word, the right guard of the government army is Nie Rong, plus the hereditary title of a thousand households, and a reward of 100 taels of silver; Try 100 households plus hereditary 100 household titles, and reward 30 taels of silver; The general flag and the small flag will be tested for 100 household titles and rewarded with 10 taels of silver; Ordinary soldiers were rewarded with ten taels of silver. ”

"As for the two of you, Song Xuan plus General Zhaoyong, Li Zengzhi and General Huaiyuan. When one of the guards is vacant, I will appoint you as the commander. ”

"Minister Song Xuan (Li Zengzhi) thank Your Majesty for the gift." The two of them knelt down and said.

"You don't have to kneel around like that, get up." Yun Xi said.

When the two of them got up, Yun Xi suddenly thought of something, called Jin Chun over, and said, "I have something I want to tell you just now, and I don't want to be interrupted." Have you read the Book of Songs? ”

Jin Chun felt that Yun Xi's words despised him very much, how could anyone who was a civil official not read the "Book of Songs"? But he still replied: "The minister has read it, and he can basically recite 300 poems." ”

"What do you think of the song "Qin Feng No Clothes"?" Yun Xi said.

"Do you say you have no clothes? with the Son. ......" Jin Chun went through the poem in his heart and said: "In the Book of Songs, it can be regarded as a good poem. ”

"Then you memorize it." Yun Xi said.

Jin Chun was puzzled, but said, "How can you say that you have no clothes?" with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son!

How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son!

How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son! ”

Yun Xi turned to the generals present: "Do you think that if this poem is accompanied by a tune, will the soldiers be able to understand it?" Will you like it? ”

"Your Majesty wants to use this poem as a song sung in the army like the Qin State?" Lan Zhen said suddenly.

The others suddenly realized: it turned out that His Majesty's intention was this.

Maybe some people don't know that there have been military songs in China since ancient times, and the earliest one that has been handed down is "Qin Feng No Clothes"; During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Rouran had a rather atmospheric war song; After that, the Tang Dynasty Biansai poems were very popular, and there were many war songs.

After the Tang Dynasty, five generations later, Tang Zhuangzong Li Cunqiao personally composed military songs, which can make soldiers sing, kill the enemy bravely in battle, and forget death, which is probably the most typical war song in Chinese history, but unfortunately its lyrics and songs have not been handed down.

Then all the poems and songs about the war were played afterwards, and it was not until the end of the Qing Dynasty that military songs appeared again.

In Yunxi's previous life, all countries had military songs, which either emphasized discipline or boosted morale, which were much more useful than the official words of Wen Crepe. That's why he also wanted to create a military song.

"Your Majesty, this song "Qin Feng No Clothes" may have been easy to understand in the pre-Qin period, and it was a song that ordinary soldiers could understand, but most of the soldiers today don't understand what this song means." Li Jian said.

"When I was inspecting these teams just now, I felt that the sound of the trumpet was very dry, and suddenly I thought of the poem "Qin Feng No Clothes", and I thought that the soldiers could not boost their morale by singing military songs during the march. Anyway, I sometimes sing to lift my spirits, so I want to set up a military song. Since the soldiers could not understand this poem, it was no longer used as a military song, so I ordered others to write a military song for the soldiers to sing, to boost morale and emphasize discipline. Yun Xi said.

He actually knows that this "Qin Feng Wuyi" is not suitable as a military song now, but in order to show that there are military songs in China since ancient times, he is only restoring tradition rather than innovating, so he must propose this poem, and then logically create his own military song after they deny it.

After saying the last words, Yun Xi ended today's review.
