Chapter 18: What I Saw and Heard in the Jiuniang Camp
On the other side of the conscription table, there have been many people gathered, at least twenty or thirty people have enlisted, here, he has joined forces with Wang Fuzi to recruit a literate talent, Chen Yuan is in a good mood.
"Okay, let's temporarily set up a propaganda department in the camp, with Wang Fuzi as the minister and Wang Lin as the deputy. In the next step, I will give you a movable type printing workshop, and you can use it to print something and let people spread it everywhere. As soon as Chen Yuan was happy, he talked to Wang Fuzi about the affairs of the Propaganda Department.
"Your Excellency is saying that you should be informed by some posters?" Wang Lin asked.
"Sort of, but the text should be simple and popular, so that ordinary people can understand it." In this time and space, this kind of poster has already appeared, but it is widely advertised by some businesses.
"Haha, that's a good idea, my lord. Let's do more to publicize it and publicize it to the people. Let those loyal ministers and righteous men be admired by the people, and let those dogs and traitors who are greedy for life and afraid of death have nothing to hide. Wang Fuzi stroked his palms and smiled, and Wang Lin also smiled and nodded in agreement.
"The old man thinks that this people don't know much, and we can't print it out, so we have to organize people to read it everywhere...."
The three of them talked about some things in the Propaganda Department, and the more they talked, the more interested they became, and they left the two sons on the side aside.
"Hey, what's going on with you, it's endless." Brother Jiu said angrily.
The three of them stopped abruptly and looked at the two young men.
"Oh, do you want to join our security team?" Wang Fuzi said with a smile.
"Master, forget it, it's not convenient for our security team to recruit girls now." Chen Yuan shook his head and said.
"Hey, keep your eyes open, who's the girl. Where are I and this Fang Gongzi like a girl? Jiuniang said angrily, "Besides, even if we are girls, what can we do, didn't the inspector say yesterday that the world rises and falls, and the husband is responsible?" Can't this girl hit the tartar? Jiuniang screamed.
"Oh, it's Chen's mistake. This expulsion of the Tartars is naturally accessible to everyone. Chen Yuan also had to fight with a little girl for something, and said lightly. If you think about it, they won't register.
Seeing that Chen Yuan said humble, this Jiu Niang smiled, and her jade face bloomed gently like a flower, revealing two charming dimples, which stunned Chen Yuan. Seeing Chen Yuan staring at his face, Jiu Niang's face flushed slightly, put away her smile, and said angrily: "Hey, you person, why are you so rude, staring at other people's faces, is it possible that my son's face has flowers?" ”
Isn't it a flower? Chen Yuan smiled and said, "The two sons are also interested, please go over there to register." ”
"There's no rush to this. You can't say that we will believe it if you beat the tartars, I have to see. Didn't this old master just say that he invited us to the camp, I'll take a look. ”
"Brother Jiu, forget it, it's not too early at this time, let's go back." Fang Gongzi on the side lowered his head, pulled Jiu Niang's sleeve, and said softly.
"If you are in a hurry when you go back, you will go to the camp and have a look." Jiuniang shook her sleeves and said dryly.
Since the two of them are interested, Chen warmly welcomes them. Two sons, then go with Chen. ”
Although the recruitment here is full of twists and turns, it can be regarded as on the right track, and I have to go back to the camp to see the situation in other places, arrange it, and go to Yongping in the afternoon.
Chen Yuan then instructed Chen Xiong and Shi Ming to take Wang Fuzi, Wang Lin and some registered Xinding to return to the regiment headquarters first. Jiuniang pulled the female companion surnamed Fang and followed behind.
Back at the regiment headquarters, Wang Fuzi took Wang Lin to discuss their propaganda work.
Chen Yuan handed over some newcomers to some veteran team members and walked around the camp with two tomboys.
In today's battalion, there are only a dozen or so new members in the playground for queue training, and the old members are either sent out to recruit or are busy placing new members.
The recruitment of troops elsewhere went smoothly, and Lu Yu sent back more than 20 ragged villagers, who were not in charge of the camp, and were temporarily concentrated in one place. A veteran team member was talking about the rules of the camp.
There were not many people on the playground, but Jiu Niang watched it with relish, and was very curious about everything in the camp, and kept asking Chen Yuan this and that.
I am not a child, let alone a tour guide, although there are two beauties in front of me, but Chen Yuan is worried about going to Yongping, and he responds with a ride or a piece of soil.
Well, when we find the Zhao brothers, let's hand them over to those two brothers.
Suddenly, a strange singing voice came, attracting Jiu Niang to the past. The veteran team members who were introducing the situation to the newly recruited team members straightened their necks and shouted to the newcomers the song "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" that must be sung before dinner.
This song plagiarized by Chen Yuan was stammered and roared by this rude man, but it had an alternative taste.
Well, it's basically all over the place. Chen Yuan nodded. It's not easy, in order to teach these songs, Chen Yuan almost sang his voice dumb.
"Yo, that's another weird tune." , Jiuniang listened attentively, and smiled at her companion, "Three... Third brother, now I always believe it. There's a lot of weirdness here. Yesterday there was a walking song. What is called something to keep in mind. ”
"That's the rule song. I was afraid that the brothers would not be able to remember, so they sang and read it often. ”
"Then what's going on with this song, what is the Great Wall, the Yellow River, it's a mess."
"Well, we'll talk about that later."
To explain this song, it is not a word or two, in order to maximize the use, Chen Yuan simply led the two of them over.
"Report to your lord, Ding Mancang of the security team is introducing the situation in the camp to the newcomers." When the team member saw Chen Yuan coming, he stopped singing and raised his hand to salute Chen Yuan.
"Brother Ding has worked hard." Chen Yuan solemnly returned the salute.
"Don't work hard, expel the Tartars, and defend the country." Ding Mancang clenched his fist right and knocked on his chest. This is a strange rule made by Chen Yuan, and the whole set of etiquette seems concise and powerful.
In that time and space, Chen Yuan was not less exposed to this kind of thing. From physical education classes in schools, to military training at school, and even after-work training, and even in the huge sales team, this kind of thing is everywhere.
"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded.
"Eighteen new recruits today, please reprimand." Ding Mancang asked.
Chen Yuan nodded and came to everyone. These newcomers, apparently from the countryside, saw a big man coming, some bowed their hands, some were nervous, and some simply knelt down and saluted.
"Stand up, no need to be polite." Chen Yuan frowned, many of these soldiers were a little weak in physique, and their quality was a little unsatisfactory, I don't know what the situation will be after training in the future.
"In this camp, although there are high and low positions, everyone is a brother, and in the future, we will perform camp salutes between us, and we don't need to kneel down." Chen Yuan said lightly.
"Report to your lordship, these newcomers haven't learned the rules yet." Ding Mancang blushed and said on the side.
"Well, it's okay, let's learn slowly in the future." Chen Yuan waved his hand, and then said coldly to everyone: "Brothers, some of you may not know what kind of place this is, today, I can tell you that our security regiment is an army that fights against the Tartars and defends the country." Our army will go to the battlefield to fight the Mongol Tatars in the future. On this battlefield, you can die at any time, and if you have concerns, you can regret it now and leave. ”
Hearing Chen Yuan's cold words, some people's faces turned pale, and some people's faces were swollen red, but no one left.
"My lord, since ancient times, I have been a soldier and have eaten food and worked hard. Since I have served the rice bowl of an adult, this life is an adult's. A small, emaciated young man said.
"My lord, this person's name is Zhao Yun, Yanjiashan, there is no land at home, and there is no one left, I heard that we are recruiting, so I came." Ding Mancang stepped forward and introduced softly.
"We are willing to listen to the arrangement of the adults."
"Our lives will be adults' in the future." Someone took the lead, and everyone shouted.
"Okay, they're all my good brothers." Chen Yuan shouted, startling Jiuniang and his partners beside him, and everyone quieted down.
"Today, Chen Moumeng has so many brothers who can afford it, and he is willing to follow Chen to kill the Tartars and protect his family, Chen is very happy." Chen Yuan arched his hand and said, "However, I want to correct you here, we will kill the Tartars in the future, but not only for Chen, but for the thousands of Han people who died under the Mongolian Tartar knife, but also for the thousands of people who do not want to be fished by the Mongolian Tartars, including your family, your relatives and friends." ”
"Expelling the Tatar slaves, restoring China, recruiting troops, and defending the country." Ding Mancang duly shouted today's recruiter's number, and some people also shouted in a chaotic manner.
"Okay." Chen Yuan waved his hand, waited for everyone to calm down, and continued: "Brothers may not understand what China is, I will tell you about it here. The Han people in the north and south of the river, the Song people in the south, and the Jin people in the north are all from the same ancestor, the descendants of the Yan Emperor and the Yellow Emperor. The land we live in, known as Huaxia in ancient times, China or Zhonghua, is basically south of the Great Wall. This land, the land is fertile, the climate is pleasant, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River run through it, and our ancestors have lived for generations.
To the north of the Great Wall, most of them are inhabited by the Hu people, who often go south to plunder us. Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall to defend against the Hu people in the north, and to protect the Chinese people within the Great Wall from living in peace and security on this land. But now, this Hu people have gone south to herd horses, slaughter us at will, loot and plunder, and we are now united to build a new Great Wall with our flesh and blood. With knives and guns, drive the Mongols back to the outside of the Great Wall.
When Qin Shi Huang, the Hu people did not dare to go south to herd horses, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu rushed westward, when Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the Turks bowed down to the courtiers, we Han people, or called the Chinese people, have always been an unyielding, mighty ethnic group, like a lion, standing on this land of China, four Yi to serve.
But for hundreds of years, this male lion fell asleep, and those Hu people rushed to cross the Great Wall and wantonly kidnapped and killed us Han people on the land of China. There are Khitans, Dangxiang people, Jurchens, and Mongols, all in endlessly. When our Han people were strong, they fought in two wars, and they didn't dare to raise their heads, and now, one by one, they are showing off their might on the land of China, wantonly kidnapping and killing, and treating our Han people as cattle and sheep.
Now many people, facing the blade of the Mongols, surrendered on their knees, stretched their necks and let the Mongols slaughter, hoping that the Mongols would be tired of killing, spare their own lives, and be willing to make cattle and sheep for the Mongols. There are even some people who have taken refuge in the Mongols and become traitors, turning around and swinging their knives at the Han people who are the same ancestors as them, and they are not ashamed, but proud, these people are not even as good as animals, and they will not hurt their own kind for no reason.
Brothers all know that this cow and sheep are also bloody, whoever slaughters it, it will also spew blood when it dies, is it not as good as cattle and sheep. Where is the blood of our Han people! We have to let the Mongols know that we Han people are not easy to mess with. Tens of thousands of us stood up together, picked up the killing knife to kill the Tartars, so that we, the Han people, like lions, woke up from our sleep and re-established ourselves in the land passed on to us by our ancestors in China.
Now, everyone sings with me, and after 10,000 years of sleep, the people of the country have gradually woken up....."
The more Chen Yuan spoke, the more excited he became, and finally he sang, Ding Mancang sang along, some veteran team members also ran over and sang along, and some newcomers also didn't say a word. Jiuniang and Fang Gongzi on the side were dumbfounded.
After singing it twice, Chen Yuan's mood gradually calmed down and stopped.
Smack, smack, smack. The applause rang out at the right time, and Wang Fuzi and Wang Lin also came over at some point, clapping their hands with some old team members. The Zhao family brothers, who Chen Yuan had not found for a long time, also followed.
"Okay, adults speak well and sing more vigorously." Master Wang smiled and said flatteringly.
This sycophant is afraid, he has been a human being for two lives, and the five tones are not complete, so he doesn't know if it's good or not. However, it touched my heart just now, and it was true that I sang with devotion.
"Okay, let's go get some rest. Ding Mancang, settle the new brother. Chen Yuan waved his hand.
"Yes." Ding Mancang bowed solemnly and left with the recruits.
"Ninth Prince, why are you here. Didn't you come outside the staff anymore? Zhao Zhong saw Jiu Niang and stepped forward to greet him.
"Dad is still at home in Yongping, and I will go to the estuary with Fang Gongzi." Jiu Niang replied.
"Hmm." The Zhao brothers didn't say anything and stood behind Jiu Niang.
Both brothers had made guarding instinctive. Seeing this, Chen Yuan was both envious and impatient. The head of the self-army may be about to strike, but he can finally get rid of the two girls who are pestering him.
"Brother Zhao Zhong, these two sons want to have a look in the camp. I still have some things to deal with, so I'll let you guide me. Chen Yuan said with a smile.
"Yes, sir." The Zhao brothers replied.
"Inspector Chen, you..."Jiu Niang may be a little reluctant to give up this eccentric tour guide, and said anxiously.
"I'm sorry, Chen has something else to deal with, so I won't accompany the two sons. If there is anything wrong with the two sons, just tell Zhao Jiaotou. Chen Yuan bowed his hand to Jiuniang, beckoned Wang Fuzi and Wang Lin together, and walked away.
