42 This is a strong revolutionary atmosphere......
"Can civilians afford to read......
Chu Xuan's words made Izumo Akuni involuntarily fall into a longing, so that the "lowly" commoners could also read and write, which was simply ...... What a great feat it would be!
Although she didn't know how Chu Xuan wanted to do it, Ah Guo, who had visited many unexpected novelties along the way, had already begun to believe that Chu Xuan definitely had a way to do it.
"Keeping knowledge in the hands of a few and keeping the people ignorant is conducive to domination and exploitation, but it is not conducive to unifying the national power, and it is not the way to make the country stable for a long time."
Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly and said lightly.
In fact, it wasn't because of this that he taught those soldiers Chinese, and of course it wasn't so that they could read books in the future.
Status.
Chu Xuan taught these low-status ordinary people the Chinese language that only the nobles could learn, mainly to let them have a little illusion in their hearts that they were no different from those nobles, and to improve their self-esteem, self-confidence and pride.
Learning a few "foreign" songs and knowing a few "foreign" words can't actually change anything, and it's not enough for them to change their destiny with this knowledge.
But just like the ancient merchants, after they became rich, they always liked to "overpass", wearing colorful silk that only nobles were qualified to wear, and living in high-ranking families that only nobles were qualified to live in.
Self-esteem, self-confidence, and pride are all spiritual human needs, higher than material needs, and although they are not necessary, when a person has experienced the pleasure they bring, he is likely to become "addicted" and never want to let go of them.
Once they have tasted the joy of being a "human", even if they become "pigs and dogs" again, or even "things" that are inferior to pigs and dogs, these ordinary soldiers who used to be "people" are no longer willing to become domestic animals to be slaughtered for the rest of their lives.
-- This is the spark of revolution, and Chu Xuan used it to ignite the revolutionary enthusiasm in the hearts of these ordinary soldiers, so that these ordinary farmers, who were originally just honest, ignorant, and timid, turned into revolutionary fighters with fanatical dedication and actively defending the "revolutionary regime" and their own right to be human beings in a short period of time.
Of course, in this process, Chu Xuan used a little collective hypnosis, psychological suggestion, and mental pollution...... and so on, so that they can "wake up" more quickly, but no problem, because Chu Xuan is doing an unprecedented great cause for their good.
ββ¦β¦ There has never been a savior,
Nor does it depend on the Immortal Emperor!
To create the happiness of mankind,
It's all up to us ......"
ββ¦β¦ Just as the pear blossoms are blooming all over the world,
The river floats with a soft veil.
Katyusha stood on the steep shore,
The song is like a bright spring light.
Katyusha stood on the steep shore,
The song is like a bright spring light......"
ββ¦β¦ The sky is still overcast,
There are still pigeons flying,
Who will prove those love and life without tombstones.
The snow is still falling,
The village is still peaceful,
Young people disappear in the birch forest......"
On the way to the canteen with the high morale of the soldiers, Ah Guo also heard the singing voices from other teams nearby, the tone of which may be majestic, light, or poignant, but all of them are classics that people will never forget after listening to them.
"These exotic songs have never been heard of before......"
Ah Guo, who is very sensitive to music, involuntarily pricked up his ears and exclaimed softly.
She had already begun to wonder in her mind whether her troupe would be able to sing these songs as well, or add them to the elements of the "Amazing Dance".
You can also sing these songs to audiences in other places as part of what Echigo has seen.
In addition, I have some novel repertoire - which is a different form of performance from the 'Amazing Dance', which can be provided to you together if you are interested. β
Chu Xuan, who was reflective in his glasses, was kind to Izumo Akuni without a trace, guiding her thinking in the direction she wanted.
Chu Xuan didn't have any psychological pressure to "use" other people's works for free, anyway, these "red songs" had basically passed the copyright protection period, and Chu Xuan had no intention of plagiarizing them into his own works.
"Ah...... May I?
That's really great, thank you so much! β
Ah Guo was easily fooled, and thanked Chu Xuan very happily.
The hardships of life have changed her mind unconsciously, and she is now not only a kagura shrine maiden who dances to please the gods, but also the head of the Agunuki theater troupe - and a folk artist.
Maybe this change was not what she wanted, and if it was possible, she would also like to be a kagura shrine maiden with an extremely high status, who only dances a dance to please the gods at major festivals, but this change has undoubtedly sharpened her will and heart, making her shiner brighter than all the previous kagura shrine maidens before Izumo Shrine, and it also gives her a broader vision and an open mind.
It was precisely because of this that Chu Xuan chose her - of course, he didn't really intend to help Izumo Shrine defeat the Harumi Shrine, but while using the Akuni Troupe to carry out various propaganda offensives for him, it was not a big deal to help them partially fulfill their wishes.
"I want the horses to run, but I don't give the horses grass", this kind of calculating, calculating to the bones of the small family spirit will not be able to do any big business.
Only by ensuring the fairness of the transaction, so that both the strong party and the weak party can benefit from it, can the truly capable partners be convinced.
"I wish the great leader Kenshin-sama a long life, and I wish Kenshin-sama's relatives and close comrade-in-arms Ayagozen eternal health!"
In front of the cafeteria, all the soldiers of the Uesugi family's newly established "People's Liberation Army" loudly expressed their reverence to their beloved Kenshin-sama and Ayagozen with an almost fanatical attitude.
The uniform salute made Ah Guo feel a powerful force that could not be expressed in words.
"In terms of the appeal of group dance, I also have a set of 'Zhongzi Dance' here, you can try to rehearse it, absorb the essence of it, and then create a better dance."
Seeing Ah Guo's shocked expression, Chu Xuan thought for a moment, and planned to raise his hands high to show his belief in the red sun; Diagonally taking a lunge signifies always following the great teacher; Pointing fingers at the ground means smashing the bourgeoisie completely; clenched his fists and said that he would carry the revolution to the end", and the strange dance was also handed over to Ah Guo.
Regardless, that dance still has its merits.
"Group dance...... Please leave it to me! β
Sure enough, Ah Guo, who was in the midst of a surging heart, didn't think about it, so he agreed.
The human spirit is contagious, and now Ah Guo is undoubtedly infected by the enthusiasm of these ordinary soldiers, but compared to ordinary soldiers, Izumo Ah Kuni, as an "artist", can exert a greater appeal with the help of song and dance, Chu Xuan is looking forward to her results.
"Hello comrades!"
"Hello Lord Kenshin!"
"Comrades have worked hard!"
"Serve the people!"
In front of these young soldiers who stood upright, Kenshin-chan and Ayamichi majestically and cordially repeated the "condolence ceremony" that I don't know how many times it had been repeated.
Although they still had doubts about this "formalism" in their hearts, they didn't feel bored at all when they saw the reverence in the eyes of those young soldiers, and Qianxin-chan and Aya Yuzen could only endure their surnames and repeat the same actions again and again according to Chu Xuan's request.
Even a lie can become truth after being repeated a thousand times, and brainwashing with the help of mechanical "repetition" is not a sophisticated skill, but it is enough to use it - especially in the face of these ancient civilians whose hearts are simply pure.
-- If the advanced revolutionary ideology does not occupy this position of public opinion and ideology, then the backward feudal ideology will occupy it.
After a morning of hard training, the soldiers were "condoled" by Kenshin-chan and Ayagozen, and finally entered the cafeteria where the food was fragrant - not particularly fragrant, but that didn't mean they could eat fragrant and hot food.
Even at this time, these young soldiers were still lining up in neat lines, lined up in many lines, and picked up food at one meal window after another.
When they brought the food on the "precious" stainless steel plate and the soup in the stainless steel bowl back to the table, they could not start eating immediately, but could only stand in front of their seats and drool at the smell of the food.
After all the soldiers returned to their seats, the female military general on duty still gave the order loudly with full of anger:
"ReadyβSing!"
Izumo Akuni, who was about to pick up his chopsticks and say, "I'm moving," was flashed, and all the soldiers roared loudly without hesitation:
"The east is red, the sun is rising, and Echigo has an Uesugi Kenshin.
She seeks happiness for the people, and she is the great savior of the people......"
Brainwashing at a time like eating, which fills people with anticipation, especially those who are tired and hungry...... No, ideological education can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and it is easy for them to instinctively accept this kind of brainwashing without going through the brain...... No, it's ideological education.
The principle, similar to that of Pavlov's dogs, is a conditioned reflex that links these thoughts to the instinct of "eating", so that whenever these young soldiers think of eating, they think of their great leader, Kenshin Uesugi. (To be continued.) )
