As the emperor and courtiers, Zhao Hong ascended the throne and became a member of the Zhou family. Tian Yi, Xu Liang and others around him benefited a lot. The busiest among them is Tian Yi.
Firearms training, especially artillery training, and other large and small training matters, even with people like Li Tang and Xu Sheng sharing them, he was still overwhelmed.
The Ordnance Institute's promotion officer is in charge of firearms casting. Although it is subordinate to the Ministry of Industry, all officials from the Ministry of Industry understand that firearms casting is under His Majesty's personal control, and officials of all ministries, big and small, will provide convenience as much as possible.
Even the Minister of Accounts, Shin Tok Hide, who complained about the huge cost of firearms training, was greatly shocked after watching the firearms training, and cooperated a lot with the "funding".
The important weapon of the country is in the hands of the new emperor, so of course he must fully support it.
"The General's Cannon weighs 500 kilograms. It fires 7 kilograms of solid iron balls. It can also fire shotgun shells. The charge is one kilogram and twelve taels, and the effective range can reach two miles. Remember, the maximum amount of medicine used is two kilograms and twelve taels, and the range can reach three miles. . The dosage of medicine is all on the scale, don’t get confused!”
In Yujin Garden, on the school field, Tian Yi explained the sergeants carefully and took the trouble.
He tested the functions of the three types of artillery thousands of times, and the conclusions he drew were all supported by data and based on time-honored experience.
"This small cannon weighs 30 kilograms, has a charge of 7 taels, is loaded with 100 iron pellets in the front, and is filled with 30 taels of lead pellets. The effective range is up to 300 steps. It can break through iron armor and carry..."
Tian Yi started to introduce another kind of sub-cannon, and the noisy sound made him frown.
"Instructor Tian, we caught two craftsmen who sneaked in!"
The sergeants escorted two girls disguised as men and reported to Tian Yi.
"I told you, we are not doing it for fun. We are here to have fun!"
Wei Sisi looked around and muttered.
The only thing she is worried about now is that her father, Wei Liaoweng, is in Yujin Garden, which would be a huge embarrassment.
"Li Tang, take them to continue training!"
Tian Yi frowned and waved his hand.
"Let them both go."
What can two delicate girls peek at?
"I'll take you out. This is an important military area. Don't come here again."
Remembering that he still had something to report to Zhao Hong, Tian Yi stepped forward.
"Is Minister Wei Wei Liaowen in Yujin Garden?"
Wei Sisi curled up her neck and looked around, asking nervously, like a thief who was afraid of being seen.
"Shilang Wei is not here. He should go find officials from the Ministry of Works."
Tian Yi looked at Wei Sisi and Shi Huiyu strangely.
"Do you know Minister Wei?"
The two girls are young and beautiful, one is passionate and the other is cold, they have some interest and some background.
"Her father is Minister Wei. Is Your Majesty in Yujin Garden?"
Shi Huiyu was outspoken and directly betrayed her best friend. She looked around wildly, but there was no trace of Zhao Hong.
"Your Majesty is not here. Don't worry, I won't tell your father about your affairs."
Tian Yi instantly understood Wei Sisi's worries.
Wei Liaoweng was a close official of the emperor, so of course he had to keep an eye on his daughter-in-law.
Calling her father's name directly, this woman is quite special.
"You are such an interesting person! I will thank you very much when you turn around!"
Wei Sisi was enthusiastic, while Tian Yi, who was shy by nature, was slightly embarrassed.
Subconsciously, he felt that Wei Sisi felt comfortable being close to her, much more comfortable than Shi Huiyu.
"Patriotism, sacrifice! What is that? Is it big talk?"
Shi Huiyu asked curiously, pointing to the big characters on the wall of the school ground.
Those slogans "Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in war" made her little heart beat wildly from time to time.
"What a big talk, that's the school motto of Jiangwu Hall. It's His Majesty's golden words!"
Tian Yi glanced at Shi Huiyu dissatisfiedly, and his voice became louder unconsciously.
"Motto?"
Shi Huiyu and Wei Sisi both looked confused.
A place that trains military officers has quite a few names.
"Not only does it have a school motto, but it also has a school emblem, a school flag, and a school song. Students have to take assessments for admission, and they also take an oath after entering. There is one in the Jinling Martial Arts School, and there is also one in the Naval Academy. This is run by the Song Dynasty court, and His Majesty is the principal. Can you be careless? ?”
Tian Yi confided many "state secrets" in one breath.
Zhao Hong is preparing and thinking about many chores, rules and regulations. I believe it will be available soon.
Shi Huiyu and Wei Sisi looked at each other, their eyes shining.
"General Tian, the emperor founded the martial arts hall, was it in Jinling?"
Wei Sisi asked impatiently, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Without her father, she immediately became complacent and carefree.
"Didn't Minister Wei tell you?"
Tian Yi looked at Wei Sisi and asked in surprise.
A girl asked what was going on in the martial arts hall?
"Sure enough, it's in Jinling!"
Wei Sisi smiled proudly and continued to ask:
"General Tian, did the emperor say whether the martial arts hall will accept female students?"
"Female student?"
Tian Yi's eyes widened and he shook his head.
"I don't know, but His Majesty will publish an admission notice in the newspaper, and you will know then."
Could it be that this Wei Sisi also wants to apply for the martial arts hall?
This is really surprising.
"newspaper?"
Shi Huiyu and Wei Sisi were both stunned.
"Yes, the newspaper, China Daily, should be published in the next few days. Your Majesty will tell the world in China Daily that Jinling Martial Arts Hall is recruiting talents from all over the world. However, I really don't know if it will recruit female students. Your Majesty also has no famous words.”
Tian Yi told the truth, Wei Sisi and Shi Huiyu were both excited and crestfallen.
"The China Daily and the Martial Arts Hall, His Majesty's literary and military skills are unimaginable and they look down on us women."
After a moment, Wei Sisi pouted and said.
"That's not necessarily true. His Majesty didn't say it clearly. How do you know that the martial arts hall does not recruit girls?"
Shi Huiyu suddenly became interested and thought it was possible.
"You are right. His Majesty likes young people the most. He can do deviant things!"
Tian Yi nodded eagerly, fearing that the two girls, especially Wei Sisi, would be disappointed.
He looked at Wei Sisi and Shi Huiyu and hesitated:
"Even if His Majesty wants to recruit female students, if you don't know anything, I'm afraid you won't be able to get in."
"What should we do? General Tian, you can definitely help us, right?"
Wei Sisi smiled happily and immediately begged Tian Yi to come.
"You have a rest for seven days in Yujin Garden. You can come over and practice horseback riding and archery. Just look for me then."
Wei Sisi looked so pitiful that Tian Yi panicked and agreed before he had time to think.
Passionate and beautiful girls are always hard to refuse.
"Why isn't your Majesty here?"
Shi Huiyu looked around and sighed quietly, unable to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
Tian Yi glanced at Shi Huiyu in surprise. Why is this charming beauty so curious about the emperor?
In the imperial study room, Zhao Hong drew two "U"-shaped shields with sharp corners on the paper. One of them had the four words "Patriotic Sacrifice" on it, which is the school motto of Jinling Martial Arts Hall, and the bottom was surrounded by long swords and The ear of grain has a circle in the middle with a dragon character written inside.
Of course, a golden dragon will be embroidered inside.
The shield represents the defense of the country, while the long sword and ears of grain represent the force of peace and the millions of people of the Song Dynasty respectively.
As for the golden dragon in the middle, it undoubtedly represents the Song Dynasty court.
This is the school emblem of the Jinling Lecture Hall. The main color is red, the traditional color of the Song Dynasty.
The school emblem of the Song Dynasty Naval Academy is basically the same as that of the Jinling Martial Arts Academy, except that the ears of grain are replaced by waves of water.
"The school flag..."
Zhao Hong thought for a moment and decided to adopt a rectangular flag like later generations. On the left side of the flag were written "Jinling Lecture Hall of the Great Song Dynasty" and "Navy School of the Great Song Dynasty". There was also a golden dragon in the middle of the flag.
As for the main color, of course it is the same as the school emblem, which is the traditional red color of the Song Dynasty.
Putting down the pencil, Zhao Hong's mind returned to the school song and he couldn't help but hesitate.
What kind of songs can reflect the characteristics of this era?
Can the songs "The Great Wall Will Never Fall Down" and "Men Should Strengthen Theirself" be put on the stage?
"Your Majesty, officials from the Jiaofang Department are here, asking your Majesty to listen to... the school song."
Dong Songchen came in to report, and Zhao Hong couldn't help but feel refreshed.
Just give it a listen and see what the effect is like?
Seeing Zhao Hong's hurried look, Dong Songchen shook his head gently.
Zhao Hong was meticulous about these little tricks and tricks. Isn't it too unprofessional?
A large group of musicians are waiting in the hall, with pipa, guqin, flute, erhu, etc., a dazzling array of musical instruments.
However, the erhu solo occupied a section, and Zhao Hong liked the sad, angry and unyielding feeling.
"...just scream
Shout loudly
Here is the whole country with troops
Robbers have always wanted to invade
Will eventually die
The Great Wall will never fall
Thousands of miles of Yellow River water is surging
beautiful country
………”
"stop!"
Zhao Hong frowned and stopped the musicians from singing.
The music is almost ready, but the theme song of the later film and television drama "The Great Hero Fearless" is generous and heroic, sung in the official Wu Nong soft language of the Southern Song Dynasty, and it feels wrong no matter how you listen to it.
Unfortunately, after the Song Dynasty traveled south for hundreds of years, few people can speak the Central Plains dialect.
However, I heard that Lingnan dialect is close to Zhongyuan dialect, which is considered a coincidence.
"Are there any Lingnan people among you?"
Zhao Hong asked directly, and someone immediately responded.
"You come and sing!"
Zhao Hong immediately became excited.
Sure enough, when you sing it in Lingnan dialect, the meaning immediately comes out.
"Okay, that's it!"
The Great Wall and the Yellow River are both in the north. Using "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" as the school song is profound and self-evident.
Inadvertently, I became a promoter of Lingnan language, or the language of my motherland.
"Your Majesty, is the school song of the Naval Academy still the Great Wall?"
Xu Zhi from the Jiaofang Department came up and asked respectfully.
Speaking of Xinhuang, among all the poets in the world, even this lyricist and composer are top-notch.
"of course not!"
Zhao Hong shook his finger and gave the order.
"The song "Men Should Improve themselves" seems more appropriate. It's still in Lingnan!"
The scene of the red sun and the sea suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Xu Zhushi nodded repeatedly, hurried down, directed the musicians, and immediately started playing and singing.
"Facing the waves with pride
Hot blood is like the red sunlight
Courage is like iron and bone is like fine steel
A big mind...
Let the sea and the sky gather energy for me
to create the world
Go for my ideal
Look at the tall blue waves
Look again......"
The drum beats the heart, the pipa is sonorous and powerful, and the singing in Lingnan dialect makes Zhao Hong's heart sway, and for a moment, he seems to be back in high school.
Chinese culture is extensive, profound and has a long history. Even every language has its own unique charm.
I hope that this kind of culture will continue to exist and be passed on forever, never to be interrupted.
