Lin Youde boarded the captured Victory, waited at sea for a day, joined up with the reinforcements that had gone north earlier, and then led the fleet towards Tianjin Wei in a mighty manner.
As soon as the fleet entered the port, Lin Youde was frightened by the huge crowd of people on the shore. Lin Youde knew that most of them were idlers watching the fun, but with such a huge number, even if only one thousandth of them were sincerely cheering for victory,
It's enough.
What's more, Lin Youde prepared a surprise for the Qing court officials who were waiting to catch the wind on the shore.
The Chinese people have a characteristic, no, I should say, the Chinese civilization has a characteristic. China is a civilization of sounds. China’s traditional culture is all based on sounds. The earliest Book of Songs contains ancient four-character poems.
All the songs above can be sung, and in fact, before they were compiled into the Book of Songs, these poems were indeed passed down through singing. Later, Tang poems and Song lyrics could also be composed to music and sung. The reason why the Tang Poetry Association pays so much attention to level and oblique lines is that
It can be used with common tunes, and you can sing it as long as you match it. Song lyrics are even more obvious. The word plate is the brand of the tune. You can match the song and sing it when you see the word plate.
Why can Liu Yong's lyrics be used to please singers? Because they can use these lyrics to sing and sell them for money in the future. Customers who have good lyrics will be more willing to pay after hearing them. This is a very simple thing.
Poetry Poetry means that if there is a poem, there must be a song.
This emphasis on sound is also reflected in other ancient texts. For famous works such as "Chu Shi Biao", reading silently and reading aloud feel completely different. You can only read it aloud with full emotion on the basis of understanding.
Thoroughly understand the charm of these famous articles.
This characteristic is also reflected in the Chinese language. Chinese also has homophones, but in Chinese it is impossible to make jokes like Japanese and English pronunciation, because Chinese has several syllables and several words, and the longer the syllable combination, the more
The less likely it is to overlap, you may mishear a two-character word as something else, but you will almost certainly not mishear a three-character word, and there is absolutely no need to worry about confusion for a four-character idiom.
This kind of feature is only found in Chinese in the world.
Because of this, sounds have a much higher influence on Chinese people than words.
The main art of the Yuan Dynasty is "Yuan Opera". Such a big word "qu" in it can explain the problem, right? Luo Guanzhong at the turn of the Yuan and Ming Dynasty was first of all a playwright and storyteller, and his novels were basically based on folk materials.
The existing "story books" are actually "excerpts" of storytellers. The three sets of "Pai Ben Surprise" written in the late Ming Dynasty were basically compiled by the author collecting stories from storytellers in the market.
Poems, operas, and scripts are the main body of Chinese cultural inheritance, while novels are the younger brother that only emerged in the past few hundred years.
Therefore, the best way to infect the Chinese people is not to use daggers and spear-throwing war propaganda. Who the hell will read that stuff? If you want to do propaganda, you have to sing and perform.
From the perspective of awakening the people, one "White-Haired Girl" is as good as hundreds of Xun brothers, so you see, Xun brother has decisively chosen the wrong career.
In Civilization 5, the great artists can drop cultural bombs to wash the land into their own colors. On the other hand, those who cannot "wash the land" to change the color of the ground are just fake great artists.
But now, Lin Youde, who has a lot of art talents for the convenience of picking up girls, decisively came to Tianjin to release a "cultural bomb".
As soon as the Victory docked at the port, mournful music sounded on the dock. Lin Youde knew it was "Gong Jin Ou" as soon as he heard it. It seemed that the mournful music here was born many years earlier than in the previous time and space - this was unexpected
Lin Youde couldn't help but frown at the situation outside.
"What should I do?" Ba asked quietly behind Lin Youde.
"It's still the same," Lin Youde decided, "They can't do anything to me now anyway."…
Speaking of this, Lin Youde became more and more glad that he had waited for the troops to come up at sea to join before entering Beijing. Without the courage of more than 10,000 troops, he, Lin Youde, would not have dared to openly defy the national anthem in the capital. But now, with 10,000 elite troops in hand, he
Lin Youde has more weight.
While Ba was giving instructions to the troops via radio, Josephine stepped forward and gently patted Lin Youde on the back.
"Just go ahead and do it, I'm ready to appear in front of people all over China."
Lin Youde laughed.
At this time, the giant loudspeaker temporarily installed on the Victory began to play the majestic music familiar to Lin Youde, which instantly overshadowed the performance of the military band in the port.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the Nanyang Army who had been waiting in formation on the deck of the fleet began to sing in unison: "The eighteen-star flag is fluttering in the wind, and the victory song is so loud, singing our dear motherland, and moving towards prosperity from now on..."
The training of the Nanyang Army is basically based on that of the local army. Singing is a compulsory course. The sound played by the 10,000 troops is amplified by the loudspeaker and is deafening. The momentum is actually very simple. The sound
When it is high, it has momentum. Zhang Fei shouted to drive back Cao's army, etc. It was very mysterious, but in fact it was just a loud voice.
Then the lyrics of "Singing the Motherland" are as full of rustic flavor as ever, and anyone who can speak human language can basically understand it. Especially the sentence "Whoever dares to invade us will be destroyed", which is simple and straightforward and is loved by the common people.
, much more powerful than "the empire is protected by the sky, the sky is high and the sea is roaring".
Immediately afterwards, balloons were raised from several ships in the fleet, and huge banners were hung under the balloons: "The Nanyang Army has won seven battles and seven victories, and the Nanyang Navy has won the victory!"
"Who holds the fist of anger to protect the country and punish the evildoers?"
The Nanyang Army also used mortars to hit leaflets on the heads of the crowd. There were no words on the leaflets, just a propaganda print full of the style of the special period: soldiers with eye-catching eighteen-star cap badges on their heads beat fat foreign devils with iron fists.
The officials of the Qing Dynasty on the dock were all dumbfounded. Some of them muttered: "Huh, you are a clown."
It's no wonder that the officials of any dynasty that is about to fall show a unified trait, and the Qing Dynasty just followed this tradition.
In fact, China's bureaucracy has always had this characteristic. China's feudal dynasty was actually a dual system, with the emperor on one side and a bureaucracy composed of a large number of officials on the other. In the early and middle stages of the feudal dynasty, within this system
Dual mutual restraints, like that of Wei Zheng, are actually an extreme manifestation of the restraints on emperors by the feudal dynasty's bureaucratic system during the healthy period. This kind of restraint is also common in other dynasties that do not have such famous ministers who dare to remonstrate to death.
.
At its most exaggerated, the emperor did not dare to take a beautiful woman as his concubine because the officials would complain about her to death.
In turn, the actions of the emperor himself will also restrict the bureaucrats. In a dynasty with a wise king, the bureaucracy is often relatively—note, relatively—efficient, and also relatively clean. This is the embodiment of the emperor's own constraints on the bureaucracy.
When a dynasty is on the verge of death, one element of the dual system is often paralyzed first, and then leads to the paralysis of the whole. A weak emperor leads to abnormal supervision of the bureaucracy.
The survival of the people will prevent Mingjun from coming to power, and in the end everyone will die together.
Conversely, it may also be that the bureaucracy went awry first, leaving the emperor with no one to control it.
Of course, most of the time, it was the emperor who caused the problem first. Like the Qing Dynasty, the root of the disease started during the Qianlong period, and by the beginning of the 20th century, he was finally terminally ill and could not be saved. How can you expect a group of terminally ill people to understand Lin Youde’s propaganda methods and ideas?…
Amidst the loud singing, Lin Youde appeared at the top of the battleship's springboard.
He was not wearing the official uniform of the Qing Dynasty, but a Nanyang Army Navy uniform, with a thick Nizi Army coat draped over his shoulders, fluttering like a cloak in the biting sea breeze. Lin Youde and his entourage were all like this
He was dressed in a military coat, and even Tomoe also wore a military uniform.
Her and Josephine's military uniforms are obviously different from others. The uniforms are all pure white, and the style is completely imitated by the admiral's uniform in "One Piece". Even the word "justice" on the back of the uniform was copied by Lin Youde. Of course, Lin Youde copied it.
In order to take into account the differences between the two dimensions and the three dimensions, Lin Youde made some small modifications and added some details that are more suitable for expressing female beauty, such as tightening the waist of the military uniform, redesigning the chest collar, and changing the pants into a skirt.
Yes, and so on.
In fact, this is Lin Youde's personal guard. According to Lin Youde's conception, this army should be all top-notch goddesses, and they should all follow him wholeheartedly.
Comparing the identities of the only two members of this force now, it is not difficult to understand the nature of this force. In fact, this kind of guard is not uncommon in this world. Emperor Napoleon had such a divine guard, the Luo Ying Shen.
Ax Washington also started his career by getting the top French goddess - because of this, Lin Youde is often compared to Washington in the United States. Therefore, Lin Youde's Konoe Shinji has not received much attention from public opinion, and Westerners are more concerned about the black one.
troops, and unanimously believed that it was Lin Youde's "Forest Army".
But now these two goddesses wearing domineering military uniforms have a very good eye-catching effect. They are both beauties, and their military uniforms are exactly the opposite of Lin Youde. When they are placed behind them, they immediately give Lin Youde's image.
It's highlighted.
Lin Youde walked with head high and came to the Qing court officials who had been waiting for a long time in the middle of the pier. The official at the head was said to be Ronglu, but Lin Youde recalled it for a long time and couldn't remember what this old man looked like in the photo on Baidu Encyclopedia, so he could only assume that he was an official.
By looking at his makeup and wearing a flower feather on his head, he could tell that this guy was the guy who was in cahoots with Cixi.
"Master Lin," the old man who might be Ronglu came up to Lin Youde and bowed to him, and said first, "What are you..."
"Sir Rong, I have returned victoriously, and our army did not lose a single soldier in the battle at the Yellow Sea. What do you mean by welcoming me with such sorrow and joy?"
As soon as Lin Youde said this, everyone present turned green.
An official next to him who was younger than Ronglu said hurriedly: "Mr. Lin, you may not know it because you are busy with military affairs. This is the national anthem "Gong Jin Ou" decided by the parliament and approved by the emperor. You..."
"What?" Lin Youde was shocked, "This is the national anthem? Who decided it? Mr. Rong, I, Lin, have a good understanding of music. The melody of this national anthem is like Meng Jiangnu crying over the Great Wall. It is cursing me for the fall of the Qing Dynasty!"
"This..." the younger old man continued, "When I visited Japan, I listened to the Japanese national anthem with the same rhythm..."
"So Japan has died. Now Japan's national affairs have long been controlled by the military. People of insight who hope to restore the country are now under the protection of Lin. The Russian national anthem is also lifeless. As a result, it has been defeated repeatedly in Europe.
Now we have been defeated by our army again. Mr. Rong, this national anthem is a reflection of the destiny of the country. Look at the national anthem of the United States and the national anthem of England. Which one is like this? And the national anthem of France, which once unified the continent, is "La Marseillaise".
It is even more exciting to the extreme, Mr. Rong, the national anthem is by no means a trivial matter, let alone a ceremonial piece of music!"
The officials of the Qing court looked at each other. They were obviously not used to dealing with Lin Youde's completely unruly speech, and it was really not easy for Lin Youde to hold back his laughter.
**
After hearing Xu Shichang's narration, Yuan Shikai looked up to the sky and laughed.
"This Lin Youde is quite interesting. He might as well just give Ronglu a one-eyed stone man. Wouldn't that be more clear? Isn't he really afraid that the court will punish him for treason?"
"His base is isolated overseas, and the navy is in his hands," Tang Shaoyi shook his head, "and now he has just won a battle, is in the spotlight, and has a large army in Tianjin. The Gan army in the hands of the imperial court has suffered heavy losses. We in Beiyang
Bian Weiting is getting close to him again, and the court really can't do anything to him."
"Hmm..." Yuan Shikai paced around the flower hall for a long time before he said to Tang Shaoyi, "Shaoyi, do you think this Weiting has fallen in love with the King of Nanyang?"
"It's hard to say," Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly, "Lin Youde is a well-known playboy. Just being a playboy is not scary. If he has the ability and glib tongue and is good at pleasing women, it would be very scary."
"It makes sense. You can find a way to insert some people into Weiting's place and keep a close eye on her."

I came into contact with too many place names, and ended up with various audits... I decisively found a way to bypass the audits...
