At the end of early March, the weather is getting warmer, everything is recovering, and flowers are blooming. Chao Gai has been planning to sail away from the establishment of the naval army, the big ship has been available, the candidates have been selected, and the charter has finally been put forward after the boat division is in place.

More than a dozen boat divisions followed the Fifth Army and the Seventh Army of the Navy respectively!

On the day of the banquet, Chao Gai pulled Fei Bao, Ni Yun and Li Jun, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng aside respectively, and said things that outsiders didn't know for a while. No one knew what was going on, but they felt that they had benefited.

Needless to say, the boatman knew better than anyone the dangers at sea. So take out the things at the bottom of the pressure box and give them to or teach the generals!

Overseas foundation is a great deal, and there is no room for failure!

In the early morning of the next day, more than 12,000 people from the two naval armies drove dozens of large and small warships into Jishui by taking advantage of the water. The two teams had to arrive at the Laizhou shipyard first, one to receive the large sea vessels and drive them skillfully, while the other was trained to adapt to the new environment and wait for the order to set sail.

After bidding farewell to Li Kui, Fei Bao and others at the Jinshajiang Wharf, Chao Gai took Hu Sanniang and Yelu Dali to go to the Chaojiazhuang cattle and sheep trading market for a walk.

It was originally the expansion of the village as the foundation, and countless people and caravans from the surrounding areas spontaneously helped. Construct houses, fence walls, etc. In a short period of time, it has a prototype, a village shop, and a tea shop are located.

The eastern area began to buy and sell, and it was crowded and noisy. With one hand to pay, the other hand to deliver, herds of cattle and sheep are driven away or go to the dock to board the ship! The northern side of the purchase is stable, and business is very prosperous.

Since ancient times, monopoly is profiteering!

As long as the money is in place, up and down, hello, hello, everyone!

Chao Gai is very optimistic about the cattle and sheep trade, but he has a bit of a headache when he thinks of the transfer of Jeju officials in a few months, and there is no one left of these umbrellas!

When he returned to Chaofu, the familiar melody of the March of the Volunteers echoed. Although it is often intermittent, it is more neat and better. Busy family members and patrolling guards stop to watch or listen.

They knew that this was Mrs. Li Shishi leading the military band to play military songs. It's relatively novel and easy to learn, and some people can hum a few tunes.

In the inner house of Chao Mansion, Master Li is holding the pipa and playing, guiding the military band to play. More than a dozen musicians play suona, beat small drums, play flutes, blow pipes, etc., and are divided into three groups, each with a division of labor, and obey orders.

Without exception, they were all female musicians, most of whom were selected from among the female soldiers to be good at musical instruments, and everyone wore female military uniforms and new riding boots. After this period of training, it really has the momentum of a military band.

"Yulian, your group is a little higher!"

"Ling'er, the last tone is three more snaps of fingers."

"When you are in the high notes, you must look at my gestures, and you must keep up with the rhythm."

The music was intermittent, and Master Li was happy to correct it. Women always have a smile on their faces, and even sometimes they are cute. Under this kind of practice again and again, the collective performance has become more and more tacit.

When Chao Gai came to the inner house, he heard the woman's shout, and saw her corrective and cute angry appearance over and over again, and a smile appeared on his face! Not only because the military band was formed quickly, but also because Li Shishi was happier.

Yes, for a few days, he thought that the military song had not fallen. hugged the beauty to discuss the details, and when mentioning the role of the military band and the art troupe, Li Shishi volunteered and resolutely asked to form a band. With a fierce face, as long as Chao Gai dares to say that he doesn't agree, he will be pinched directly.

Chao Gai knew that women saw others either as female generals or as masters of making weapons. I feel that I am just a vase in addition to being beautiful, and I naturally hold back a fire in my heart, wanting to find something to do to help me.

Naturally, he fully supported women and formed a military band!

Ask for money for money, ask for people to give to people! Musical instruments are customized to the best and pick people from the women's barracks. Guo Sheng's good friend Song Yulian and Chao Qiang's good friend Zhang Linger were also pulled into the gang and became the deputy team leader, and a military band was born.

In the past few days, Master Li has devoted himself to training, as long as he is with Chao Gai, he discusses the tune of the military song and outlines it into a score. Because he was too obsessed with devotion, he also became a master who needed to deliver food.

Workaholic, silly woman!

Chao Gai looked at this Master Li, and thought of that Li Qingwan again, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. This little butterfly affects the surroundings and changes the trajectory of others.

The whole piece was played over there, and Master Li also saw Chao Gai and the two girls. Came over with the pipa in his arms: "Ah, Master Chao is here!" Ask the master for guidance. ”

"Uh...... All right! Chao Gai bared his teeth when he heard this new name, and saw the woman's face full of longing and pouting to cry, and nodded.

"Then please invite the master, and the two sisters will also come." Master Li smiled.

Chao Gai could only follow the woman to the front of the band, and first affirmed: "Everyone, you have learned quickly and played well, practice according to this." I don't have any good guidance, but you play the tune and the lyrics, and you can only sing it with the lyrics. ”

"Lyrics?" Master Li was stunned for a moment, Chao Gai didn't say anything, and then his little face collapsed.

"I've been thinking about it!" Chao Gai smiled at the woman, opened his eyes and said nonsense. I secretly sighed in my heart that Tian Han's predecessors did not seek fame and fortune and promoted China.

Master Li smiled when he heard this, and then nodded "mmmm".

"I'll sing, you play, and when the time comes, remember the lyrics, and then play again. It's more relaxed, more natural, and more imposing. Chao Gai turned around and glanced at everyone one by one, and admonished with a serious expression.

"Don't be nervous, just like you played before, believe in yourself."

"Master Chao is right, everyone adjust their mentality and play again." As the leader of the military band, Li Shishi was also on the side to boost morale.

"Okay, I'll shout three times, and the singing and playing will start at the same time!"

Chao Gai didn't like to joke, he began to count with a solemn expression, and when he started to exit, he held his head high, sank into the dantian, and sang rap. At the same time, Master Li's hand fell, and the military band began to play.

The man's deep, powerful voice mingled with music.

"Arise, you who do not want to be slaves.

Build a new Great Wall of our flesh and blood.

The Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous time.

Everyone was forced to let out a final roar.

Get up

Get up

Get up ......"

The March of the Volunteers was already impassioned! and under the slight vicissitudes of Chao Gai's voice. The singing of yin and yang is very infectious. More than a dozen female musicians, including Master Li, played smoothly unconsciously.

Hu Sanniang, the two daughters of Yelu Tali were the first to be impacted, and sure enough, it was just like what Chao Gai said. The singing and the tune are mixed to make it more imposing.

The singing is also very penetrating, spreading far from the inner house. The people who were originally busy in the house were shocked and looked in the direction behind them. Whether it is an elderly hospital worker or a young child, when he hears this song, he only feels his blood boiling, and his waist involuntarily straightens up.

More and more people are like this, and unconsciously.

It can be seen that the power of military songs, until the singing disappears, people are still addicted!

The singing of the inner house stopped, and the music stopped!

"Wow, Master Chao, you're amazing!" Master Li ran to Chao Gai's side with the pipa in his arms, Hu Sanniang, and Yelu Dali was not slow. More than a dozen female musicians such as Song Yulian and Zhang Linger gathered around.

Everyone's faces were full of adoration, and everyone laughed constantly. The lyrics are simple and easy to understand, they listened to it once, almost all of them can sing it, there is nothing brilliant, it can be used with the music, the momentum is infinitely high, wonderful!

This scene happened to be watched by Li Qingwan!

As soon as she returned to the house, she heard a loud singing, and when she came to the outside of the house, she saw Chao Gai in the middle of the female crowd, her willow eyebrows were tight, her mouth was crooked, and her beautiful eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Hmph, this dead ghost is not cleaned up?" ”

And a beautiful woman beside her murmured: "Rise up, people who do not want to be slaves, build our flesh and blood into a new Great Wall........."

Chao Gai didn't expect such a tacit understanding and that familiar feeling. Seeing a group of tall and long-legged girls rushing over, he hurriedly stepped back and praised: "You are all very good! If you practice this military song a few times, practice makes perfect. The more people sing in chorus, the more momentum they have, and they can experience the momentum. ”

"Master Chao, do it again!" Master Li snorted and winked.

"Master, this is the lyrics!" Chao Gai took out the folded note from his arms: "You are so smart, you must be able to learn it, it is best for you to lead the team." ”

"Uh-huh." Master Li nodded and took the note.

"Sister, go to the women's barracks to play!" Hu Sanniang, Yelu Tali pulled her. Master Li was very enthusiastic and immediately greeted the military band.

At this moment, Han Shizhong rushed into the backyard like a fly, and went straight to Chao Gai's side and muttered in his ear, and the latter was overjoyed and applauded.

Chao Gai grabbed Master Li, told her not to be too tired, and looked at Hu Sanniang and Yelu Talibi: "Sanniang, Zong Yu, take care of Master." ”

After that, Chao Gai and Han Shizhong left in a hurry.

Not long after, several fast horses rushed out of the back door of Chaofu and went straight to the north area of Chaojiazhuang. This area is home to winemaking, garment making, blacksmithing and other workshops.

Paper mills are one of them!

With a high concentration of alcohol as a bleaching agent, the paper produced is as white as jade, and the quality is super good. The monthly income is only a few thousand yuan, but Chao Gai attaches great importance to it. In addition to papermaking, special equipment was purchased.

Movable type printing, complete equipment!

Movable type printing, this invention is a great technological revolution in the history of printing. During the Qing Dynasty of the Northern Song Dynasty (1041-1048), Bi Sheng (970-1051) of China invented movable type, marking the birth of movable type printing. It is more than 400 years earlier than foreign lead printing.

Movable type printing is an ancient printing method, and it was also invented by the ancient Chinese working people after long-term practice and research. First, make a single word of the Yang text reverse text mold, and then according to the manuscript to select the single words, arrange them in the word plate, ink printing, and then remove the word mold after printing, and leave it for the next typesetting to be used again. Very fast and efficient.

Chao Gai knew that it was a technical invention that only existed in the Northern Song Dynasty, and spent a lot of money to purchase a complete set of equipment. And through the experience provided by themselves, there are new improvements. What you need is already being printed in bulk.

He and Han Shizhong rushed over to witness the moment of history!
