Chapter 12 The Trumpet Louds
After returning to the county seat of Juxian County, Li Zhiyun locked himself in his house to find a way.
The room he lived in turned out to be the room of a bookkeeper, and there were ready-made pens and inkstones on the desk. He lay on the desk and began to draw the military horn, and after drawing it, he showed it to the third sister.
The third sister glanced at it and said disappreciably: "Isn't this just a trumpet, what's so rare?" ”
"It's called a military horn," Li Zhiyun explained, "and it can be said to be the soul of an army, and it is the fastest and easiest way to improve the organizational strength of the army......
Although the third sister didn't believe it, she still asked people to call Mr. Ying. Mr. Ying is a thin old man in his fifties. He was originally the bookkeeper of Chaifu, and now he is the housekeeper of the "Women's Army", in charge of money, food, ordnance and other miscellaneous affairs.
The third sister explained a few words to Mr. Ying, and then asked Li Zhiyun to find Mr. Ying if he needed anything.
First of all, you have to make a military horn. Mr. Ying quickly found a coppersmith. Li Zhiyun explained to the coppersmith, and after the coppersmith returned with the drawings, he sent a military horn in less than half a day.
Li Zhiyun doesn't know how to blow the military horn at all. He asked Mr. Ying to find someone who knew the rhythm of music. There are more than 10,000 people in the "Women's Army", and there are all kinds of birds in the forest, and Mr. Ying really found one for him.
This man's name was Tao Yu, and he was a short and fat man. Li Zhiyun looked at him with suspicious eyes and asked, "Do you really understand the rhythm of music?" Tao Yu smiled and said: "Don't hide it from the fifth young master, the villain was originally a court musician in the imperial court, because of Ding Wei, he went home to guard his father's system, and later participated in the 'Women's Army'."
Wow! Talent! Li Zhiyun was very happy, and hurriedly handed the trumpet to the other party and asked him to blow it.
Tao Yu took the military horn and played a piece of music very easily. Although Li Zhiyun didn't know what he was bragging, he knew that he was an expert. In addition, the craftsmanship of the coppersmith is also good, and the sound quality of the military horn is very loud.
Next, Li Zhiyun began to tell Tao Yu the trumpet song of the military horn, which were the lights out, the wake up, the assembly number, and the charge number.
The lights out and the charge, Li Zhiyun remembers most clearly. The lights out horn has a soothing tempo, and each tone is stretched long: da-da-da-da——, and the charging horn is sharp and intense: da-da-da! Tick da da! ……
Li Zhiyun explained, and Tao Yu wrote notation. He used the "Gong Zhi Notation", which is similar to the simple notation of later generations.
After Tao Yu finished memorizing the score, he played the trumpet according to the score, and then revised it according to Li Zhiyun's opinions. After repeating this, the lights out and the charges were finally composed. Especially the Charge, as soon as Tao Yu blows, it is almost exactly the same as in the movie.
As for the wake-up call and the assembly number, Li Zhiyun's memory is relatively vague, and he only remembers that the rhythm is between the lights-out signal and the charge. He gave Tao Yu the freedom to create his own works.
Not to mention, Tao Yu is really a musical genius. According to the tunes of the lights out and the charge, combined with the functions of the wake-up call and the assembly number, he created it himself, and the result was really like that, which made Li Zhiyun very satisfied!
Finally, it's about finding a trumpeter. This is much simpler, because there are many people who can blow and beat, and Mr. Ying quickly found ten people.
After Tao Yu taught them to play the military horn, ten trumpeters were assigned to various stations of the "Women's Army" and began to train the army according to the military horn.
Ten days later, Li Zhiyun invited the third sister to check the results of the training.
The third sister led Ma Sanbao, Yinggu, Scarface and several other leaders to the Cai family ancestral hall, and when they saw that the playground was empty. They entered the courtyard and looked through the window of the room to see that the rebel brothers were sleeping soundly. Scarface frowned and said, "It's all sunrise and the sun is drying your buttocks, why are the brothers still sleeping?" ”
Li Zhiyun asked people to call the trumpeter and asked, "You didn't blow the trumpet?" ”
"Blow!"
"What are you bragging? Blow it again and I'll listen. ”
The trumpeter took out the trumpet and blew it again. As soon as he finished blowing, Li Zhiyun kicked him in the ass: "You fucking blow the lights out!" As soon as you blow, don't they fall asleep again?! ”
The third sister frowned slightly and said, "Zhiyun, can this military horn be successful?" Li Zhiyun was embarrassed: "It's wrong!" Reblow! Reblow! He asked the trumpeter to blow the bugle again.
As soon as the wake-up call rang, the brothers all got up "hula-la". After the brothers finished breakfast, Li Zhiyun asked the trumpeter to blow the assembly horn and gathered all the rebel brothers on the playground.
Then, Li Zhiyun asked the instructor to take the team to a field outside the city and divide it into two teams of 500 people each. The two armies were two hundred feet apart, one was equipped with war drums and bugles, and the other was equipped only with war drums.
The third sister led everyone to watch the battle on a hillside.
Li Zhiyun gave the order to start the offensive. The drums of war sounded, and the trumpeters blew the trumpets of the charge.
Scarface said loudly: "Hey, this copper horn is blowing, it's really exciting, I want to rush up and fight!" ”
Sure enough, the morale of the squad with the trumpets was even higher, and the exercise quickly came to fruition.
In the face of everyone's praise, Li Zhiyun was triumphant. The third sister scratched his nose with her finger and said with a smile: "Stinky boy, you have done a serious job!" ”
The third sister announced: Three days later, it will be Ding Mao Day, and the county seat of Wugong will be attacked again.
Some time ago, a large family in Juxian County who sympathized with the "Women's Army" donated 50,000 taels of silver. The third sister used this money to buy a batch of military supplies and build a batch of weapons.
On Ding Mao Day, the "Women's Army" set off early in the morning. Like last time, the officers and soldiers were already waiting in formation in Wuzhangyuan.
The black charcoal head rode a white horse to show off his might in front of the battle. He stepped forward, laughed proudly, and exclaimed, "Hanako is here to die again?!" ……”
Li Zhiyun said loudly: "Black charcoal, I'll make you look good later!" Black Tan sneered and said, "What are your skills?" Come out of here! ”
The third sister on the horse raised her sword and ordered: Beat the drum! Trumpet!
So ten trumpeters raised their trumpets and blew the trumpets of the charge. These ten men were all sturdy young men, full of energy, and the sound of the trumpet was very loud.
The black charcoal head was stunned by the shrill sound of the horn: what is this?
When the rebel brothers heard the trumpet, they charged forward desperately as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and rushed in front of the officers and soldiers in the blink of an eye. Before the officers and soldiers could understand what was going on, the big knife and axe were chopped down......
After a burst of rushing and killing by the "women's army", the officers and soldiers could not resist and began to retreat.
When Yinggu saw it, she jumped and jumped with joy, and shouted: "The official army is defeated!" The officers and troops were defeated! She ran to Li Zhiyun and said with a smile: "Fifth Young Master, you are really amazing!" ”
"What is this?" Li Zhiyun disdainfully, "I'll make you more powerful in the future!" ”
2,000 officers and soldiers lost their armor and retreated all the way to Wugong County. When they entered the city, they closed the gates and held out.
