Chapter 45: The Desire for War
Ignoring the various looks on the other side, Lu Bu looked at Chen Xiaochu who was seated and said with a smile: "Lord, how about letting Diao Chan present a song and dance at the beginning of the banquet to help Yaxing?" ”
"Well, okay. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Chen Xiaochu felt that he couldn't grasp the initiative of the scene at all, and could only respond passively.
When Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and the others all sat down, Chen Xiaochu was in the middle, but he had the illusion of being isolated, after all, it was not easy to make all the generals present surrender from the bottom of their hearts.
"The slave and the maid are ugly." Soon, someone brought the table and put it in the center, Diao Chan walked slowly with the guqin in his arms, and left Lu Bu's side.
After placing the guqin on the table, Diao Chan sat down on his knees and put his hands on the strings of the guqin.
The sound of the sound sounded, perhaps because of some nervousness, the first syllable made Chen Xiaochu's heart a little moved, the sound of the piano was like a complaint, and Chen Xiaochu, who didn't know the piano, could only feel that the sable cicada was playing very slowly.
Moaning softly, unconsciously, Diao Chan began to sing softly to the sound of the piano he played.
There is no accompaniment from other instruments, and there are no more stage effects, but Chen Xiaochu can feel a strange beauty, "Can't the watch translate the perfect singing music?" ”
Listening to Diao Chan's singing, Chen Xiaochu felt for the first time that the watch was not omnipotent, and could only understand from the meaning of the watch translation, the songs sung by Diao Chan were related to the war, but her spoken voice was not the standard spoken language of Huaxia that she could understand, but Chen Xiaochu did not feel repulsed by this voice, but had a strange sense of intimacy, especially when she heard it from the beautiful singing.
"The reel plucks the strings three or two times, and there is love before the tune is formed, probably this is the feeling," Chen Xiaochu looked at the reactions of the generals present, and found that the tense atmosphere had disappeared without a trace at some point, and even Ma Chao, who had the worst face, showed a listening expression.
"In the past, poetry was like the modern pop songs of Huaxia, which could be composed and sung, but when translated with a watch, it didn't have that kind of charm." Diao Chan's voice is very beautiful, and Chen Xiaochu feels as if he has returned to the comfortable daily life of Huaxia Country when he listens to it, without the threat of erasure of the countdown to death, without the life and death battle hanging by a thread, and there is no need to be exhausted and force himself to do what he doesn't want to do.
At this moment, time seemed to pass slowly, and the sound of the piano reverted to a few monotonous notes, which sounded repeatedly, and after a while, Diao Chan stopped singing softly, and the action of plucking the strings suddenly became faster, and the monotonous combination of notes increased over and over again, and the frequency increased.
With the appearance of the pitch change, Chen Xiaochu felt that the original intention of the song sung by Diao Chan, and the sound of the piano after that, the fierce melody was like the collision of soldiers on the battlefield, which was completely different from the gentle rhythm before.
In my mind, there seemed to be a picture of the two armies clashing and fighting, tragic, bloody, passionate, painful, and all kinds of emotions were stimulated one after another with the melody plucked out of Diao Chan's hand.
Chen Xiaochu felt that his heart was boiling, the emotion attached to this kind of piano sound can only be understood by those who have experienced battlefield fighting, the wounds healed by the light of the watch treatment are all as if they have the illusion of pain, his hands are clenched, Chen Xiaochu can't help but want to touch his shoulder, the tearing feeling that he was once shot through the body by an arrow, as if he was remembered by the shoulder, in an instant, the shoulder was a little unconscious.
The sharp notes of the piano began to increase, Chen Xiaochu couldn't help but move his body, making himself sit more comfortably, turned his head to look left, Zhao Yun and the others seemed to be the same as himself, and they all realized their memories from the piano sound.
Only Lu Bu was still drinking to himself, as if his heart had completely suppressed this kind of emotion and did not reveal half of it. This is different from those subordinates standing on the sidelines, who don't feel anything at all, and it is very normal to have no hoarse battle memories and no sense of the song at all. A person who understands something and hears the relevant melody will arouse the corresponding emotion, and without this process and memory of understanding, the corresponding melody is like fresh water, and there is no taste for it.
"Could it be that as an S-class enhancer, is it just because of musical attainments?" Although Diao Chan is very beautiful, but people who have experienced the modern Huaxia Kingdom and have been washed by a huge amount of information, Chen Xiaochu is very immune to this aspect, but that kind of temperament, seriousness and dedication when playing, is something that Chen Xiaochu has never seen, but even so, Chen Xiaochu still doesn't understand what help such an S-level enhancer can play for himself.
"Maybe it's an ability I haven't discovered yet." Chen Xiaochu thought so in his heart.
At the end of the song, Diao Chan got up slowly, looked ahead, and slowly took a few steps back away from the desk. The gentle singing voice reappeared with a soft hum. During the poetic cappella, Diao Chan also began to dance.
Wide sleeves and ties, cloud sideburns and gorgeous clothes, the dance steps have just begun, and the expressions of everyone present have changed, even Chen Xiaochu, who no longer has artistic cells, also feels a trace of shock, which is different from what I have seen in modern Huaxia, the visual impact of those dances, and the dancing of the Diao Chan in front of me makes people feel that it is a kind of beauty isolated from life and reality.
"No wonder people like Dong Zhuo who dominate one side have their willpower shaken, no wonder Lu Bu can challenge the most powerful person at that time for you, even if the end is death. It is estimated that Cao Cao and Guan Yu are all mortals with no power and majesty in front of you, just an ordinary mortal, so they are like that, because they are just mortals. Seeing a soft expression on Lu Bu's face, Chen Xiaochu thought in his heart.
After a long time, Diao Chan's singing and dancing came to an end, and after saluting everyone present, he returned to Lu Bu's side.
"The lord called us here today, because he was a little worried about preparing to march somewhere tomorrow." Playing with the wine glass, Lu Bu slowly got up, looked directly at Chen Xiaochu and said. "I'm not a scholar, I won't say anything about twists and turns, if I need to express my position, I, Lu Fengxian, have always been straightforward, if it's an expedition, I can take a thousand iron cavalry with the state army, but in terms of grain and grass materials, as well as weapons and rationing, the state army must give priority to supply, if this cannot be guaranteed, I'm afraid the soldiers will need to rest and recuperate."
Very naked words, even if Chen Xiaochu didn't tell Lu Bu what he was going to do next, Lu Bu could guess what he wanted to do by relying on the information collected by the scouts of the state army to mobilize materials in the settlements.
"The Bingzhou army will not need that kind of rest, and there will be no shortage of materials in this battle, there are many allies on this side, even if I go to borrow from others and beg from others, I will not let the brothers of the Bingzhou army go hungry, and when I go to the battlefield, I will treat the army under my command equally, no one has priority, I will guarantee everything." Seeing that Lu Bu directly broke it, Chen Xiaochu immediately responded.
"Gao Shun, since General Lu Bu thinks that the trapped camp can't accompany him and needs to rest, then please trouble you to station the big camp here, and the defense south of Sujia Town will be entrusted to you." Chen Xiaochu said to Gao Shun, who had been silent like a wood.
Gao Shun squinted at Lu Bu, got up after getting the signal, and arched his hand at Chen Xiaochu: "The last general will take the order." ”
"All the soldiers and horses of the Xiliang Army are willing to follow the lord to fight." After seeing Lu Bu's statement, Ma Chao also said with a feeling that he didn't want to be left behind. After all, only war can allow the Xiliang Army to get more things, and constantly obtain booty and rewards, which is the basis for the Xiliang Army to maintain high morale, and Ma Chao will not let go of any opportunity to maintain the morale of the Xiliang Army.
Chen Xiaochu's heart suddenly relaxed a lot when he heard this, he didn't expect that he guessed one thing wrong, thirsting for war, this is the commonality of the Xiliang army and the Bingzhou army, and Chen Xiaochu completely underestimated the degree of this thirst, unlike Bai Ma Yi's neutral and orderly army, the army brought out by Lu Bu and Ma Chao is completely an army that can only survive in the continuous war, once the war disappears for a long time, their army will also "disappear".
Why do people crave war, this is probably one of the reasons, Chen Xiaochu thought in his heart.
