After about half a year of editing, the epic movie "The Battle of Mountains and Rivers" finally meets the audience.
The soldiers who took over Jiexuan and went to North America had no chance to see it, and many people will never see it.
But they are making history, and the photographers accompanying the army will record the entire process of their bloody battle.
After editing and letting the people of the Ming Dynasty see it, it will be famous and famous forever. It is exactly the same as the treatment of the soldiers who died in the Northern Expedition.
As soon as "Battle of Mountains and Rivers" was released, it was hard to get tickets. The movie tickets had been pre-sold in advance, and more than 15 million tickets were sold.
The ticket price is 200 taels, and the temporary box office based on the number of tickets sold has reached 3 million taels of silver.
Before the movie was released, a certain new emperor ordered the construction of a number of new cinemas, bringing the total number of cinemas in Beidu to thirty.
The three-hour screening includes the tactical deployment of both sides in the early stage, mutual testing in the middle stage, and the all-out conflagration in the later stage.
There are parts shot on the battlefield, as well as parts performed by actors hired in the later stage. Together they can present a magnificent picture.
All the plots of fighting on the main battlefield are all actual combat, without any performance elements.
All the people who appear in front of the camera, whether they are friends or foes, are engaged in a life-and-death battle.
Those who are injured, maimed, bleeding, and dead are all the results of actual combat.
"The Battle of Mountains and Rivers" is a panoramic display of the battle between Suzihe and Zaotu Mountain that took place in the 32nd year of Chongzhen in the Southern Court and the 16th year of Haojing in the Northern Court.
Anyone who has not joined the army or participated in the Northern Expedition will be attracted and impressed by the large-scale war scenes in the movie.
I feel even more saddened by the soldiers who died fighting against the Tatars on the big screen.
Many people thought that a new emperor led an army of millions to defeat the chief emperor Taiji, and that winning was not difficult.
But judging from the scenes shown in the movie, this victory was really won after a bloody battle.
The Donglu cavalry in the picture are all over the mountains and plains, like the tide of Qiantang, hitting the king's position one after another.
There were as many armored soldiers running on their legs as there were ants. The audience couldn't help but be stunned and sweating for Master Wang at the same time.
Then the audience saw what it means to be bombarded with artillery fire, people on their backs, hand-to-hand combat, and darkness...
The area within a radius of ten miles was almost filled with soldiers from both sides, fighting from the mountains to the bottom of the mountains, and from the ground to the river.
The most shocking thing was that the Ming Dynasty's division used tactical missile volleys to bombard the Tatar artillery positions on the mountain.
The west side of Zaotu Mountain was filled with fireballs in an instant. After the explosion, the flames turned the surface of the mountain into a layer of scorched earth with green smoke.
Just when the audience was shocked by this and thought that the Dog Tartars would definitely be defeated, many more Dog Tartars rushed up the mountain from the east side of the mountain, the number of which was incalculable.
Next, a large group of Tatar cavalry arrived on the battlefield, and the two sides began a full-scale confrontation, and the entire battlefield entered a white-hot stage.
The appearance of the Tatar airship marked the Tatars' intention to make a desperate move.
Unfortunately, I didn't expect that the Ming Dynasty King's Division had already been fully prepared, and the well-trained anti-aircraft artillery troops turned Huang Taiji's hope of turning defeat into a ball of burning fireballs.
The Tatar cavalry attacking a certain new emperor's main formation failed, and the king's division immediately entered the counterattack stage, forcing the main Tatar force to retreat, thus suffering an unprecedented defeat.
This was the first time for the audience to see the corpses of dog-Tatars scattered all over the place. Some of the audience were so excited that they cried, and some even kept whistling and applauding.
In the past twenty years, the people of Beidu had been humiliated by the dog Tatars. Now Master Wang can finally make everyone feel proud and behave like a good person.
Before the movie ended, the audience burst into thunderous applause, which lasted for more than a quarter of an hour. Many people were shouting words such as "Long live the new emperor" and "Wonderful victory for the king"...
After watching the movie, the vast majority of the audience felt that the two hundred pennies they spent were truly worth it and that they had no regrets in their lives.
There are also people who are so excited that their minds are in a trance. They only know that the filming location of this movie is really great, and they still can't get enough of it.
Even if it were another three hours, I would still be able to sit still, but unfortunately all I would have to do is try to remember the previous content.
So I followed my relatives and friends as best I could, and as long as there are empty seats in the cinema next week, I will definitely watch it again.
Spending two hundred coins can see the dog Tatar being beaten to a pulp by Master Wang. It is really a blessing for us!
This is the first part of "The Battle of Mountains and Rivers", and there is also the second part, which is the part where a new emperor leads his troops to destroy the Jianzhou Guards and the Emperor Taiji dies.
Audiences who found it unsatisfying saw the promotional poster saying that the second part would involve the death of the chieftain, and each one of them was even more excited.
Although the ticket price is still two hundred cents, everyone feels that this is only two taels of silver, and they must come to see it first.
For two hundred coins, you can see the prison chief who has committed many crimes die. It is really worth it.
Since the cinema has to arrange the entry and exit of the audience, it can only show four shows a day.
Even so, the daily turnover can reach as much as one hundred and sixty taels.
Especially on weekends, there are two nightclubs in the evening, both of which are full.
When a certain new emperor first sent people to sell tickets, he printed the date on them.
It’s not that ticket buyers are required to watch the movie on time, but when the movie is released, the earlier the date on the ticket, the more priority they have to watch the movie.
For example, those from various chambers of commerce, as long as everyone buys enough tickets, can send the screening team to the hall to play it exclusively for everyone.
It's nothing more than paying for the movie ticket and paying an extra appearance fee, but it's much more comfortable than queuing up to wait in front of the cinema.
A certain new emperor also allowed businessmen to open a small stove, thinking that even if thirty movie theaters were at full capacity, based on five screenings per day, the total number of daily viewers would only be 30,000.
Even if it is only for half of the permanent population of Beidu to read it, it will take a hundred days, which is about three and a half months.
A certain new emperor's strategy for this is to build more cinemas, build more projectors, and produce more film.
The size of the cinema has been upgraded from 200 to 600 seats, and open-air screenings are allowed when the weather is good.
Before the excitement of the first part of "The Battle of Mountains and Rivers" has passed, the second part will not be allowed to occupy the schedule of the first part.
Even if someone wants to take a sneak peek, they still have to queue up.
The way to queue is very simple, that is, continue to buy the second movie ticket!
There is no doubt that those who buy tickets first will be able to see the movie first.
Due to the good reputation of the first part among the audience, as many as 10 million movie tickets for the second part were sold within three days after they went on sale.
The biggest selling point of the second part is that Huang Taiji dies...
Many people also decided to buy 10,000 firecrackers to celebrate on the day when the second part of "The Battle of Mountains and Rivers" was released!
If for no other reason than the death of a captive chief who attempted to destroy the Ming Dynasty, isn't it worthy of celebration?
After this idea spread widely, the firecracker shops in Beidu City immediately became booming.
The best-selling firecrackers are those with more than 5,000 rings. People who buy these firecrackers don’t care about money at all.
The uncle is happy to buy it!
Let alone ten thousand rings, as long as it can make the uncle happy, even one hundred thousand rings, we will buy it!
The impatient guy didn't wait for the second movie to be released, so he bought the firecrackers and set them off in front of his house.
Regardless of the New Year or the festival, firecrackers can also be set off at weddings and funerals.
What's more, after Wang Shi defeated the Tatars, "there is hope for ZTE" in the future is definitely not an empty talk.
There is no more fighting in the pass, and the natural disaster has passed. From now on, the country will be peaceful and peaceful, and the weather will be smooth.
For the people, isn't this the greatest blessing? You can still enjoy it every day!
Although Emperor Haojing did not say that the entire territory of Nurgan Dusi would be recovered, the newspapers were very sure that the Dog Tatars had been beaten to the north of the Songhua River.
Further north, after crossing the Black Water, is the land of the Northern Territory. It means that the Dog Tartars have been attacked by two kings from the north and the south, and their time is running out.
At this time, the storytellers and strategists in the teahouse showed their unique talents. They combined newspaper news and the current war situation to explain their high opinions to the guests.
The five points are based on facts, and the five points are based on your own interpretation. If you can't just talk nonsense, no one will listen.
The theatrical performances in various gatherings were still popular, and skits and cross talk about dog Tatars being beaten were also added.
A guest with a bad taste wants to stay overnight, and the ladies are asked to play the role of Da Yu'er. We must let them taste their own power...
Before that, Colbert and Turenne left the northern capital with a full set of film projection equipment, purchased goods and weapons, as well as French soldiers who were willing to return to their homeland.
Although Ruyter was a little anxious, at Putmans's suggestion, he also left with Kolbe.
They can look after each other at sea, especially when passing through the English Channel.
The Netherlands and France are already in a quasi-alliance. We can get the protection of hundreds of ships for free, so why not use it?
No matter how barbaric and unreasonable the British were, they would not dare to go to war with the Netherlands and France at the same time. It would be tantamount to self-destruction.
Without the Ming Empire sending troops, the combined fleet of these two companies alone was enough to completely wipe out the British fleet.
Luit didn't think Cromwell or Blake would be so reckless, but he was really looking forward to this happening.
Being able to add six more ironclad ships to the Dutch Navy at once would really improve the strength of the fleet by leaps and bounds.
Even though there were only four ironclads in the fleet last time, they still entered the Thames Estuary under the leadership of Tromp.
If there are ten ironclad ships, the Dutch Navy will be fully confident to adopt proactive attack tactics under any conditions.
Then there was the exchange of twelve ironclad ships for the East Indies. Ruyter was not very sure about this.
If the group that controlled the East India Company did not relent, it would be tantamount to rejecting the request to add twelve ironclads to the navy.
In addition, it was difficult for the Ming Empire to launch an expedition against Britain in a short period of time. Everything had to rely on the Netherlands itself, especially the naval fleet.
As for the Triple Alliance, it can only be postponed indefinitely, and the Netherlands may even see the early birth of the Ming-France Alliance.
For France to become the first ally of the Ming Empire, this is probably a result that no one in the Netherlands wants to see.
At that time, the Netherlands was the first partner of the Ming Empire in the field of trade, and Dutch merchants received considerable benefits.
And this is only in the trade field. If you upgrade to become an ally, you will enjoy all-round benefits.
Once the Ming Empire sent a fleet to attack Britain, it would help the Netherlands gain general trading rights in Europe.
The rest can be divided among France, Sweden, Rome, and Portugal, as long as the Netherlands can get about half.
But in the near future, the East India Company may adopt a resistant attitude that will make all these benefits complicated and difficult to obtain.
Ruyter can only find a way with Putmans on the long road to first convince Tromp and William II, and then deal with other short-sighted people...
Less than one nautical mile away from Ruyter's ship was Colbert's ship. The envoy's only idea now was to return to Paris and explain his gains as soon as possible.
Assuming that Prime Minister Mazarin is still alive, everything will be much easier. Otherwise, he will have to try his best to convince the young King that he must form an alliance with the Ming Empire before the Netherlands.
After forming an alliance with this Eastern Empire, not only can we continue to maintain the benefits of trade, but we can also obtain multiple additional benefits in terms of military, territory, population, etc.
If done correctly, France could even get half of North America!
Spain used this method to launch the Netherlands War and had long-term enemies with France, Sweden and other countries.
With such a huge dividend, France should go there and enjoy it when circumstances permit.
On the premise that the war in Europe is not serious, use the troops of the Marquis of Turenne to rotate the local troops.
Letting local troops go to North America is the easiest way to send troops.
After acquiring ironclad ship technology and being able to form an alliance with the Ming Empire, France's future will become even better, and France's national power will become stronger as its military power increases...
It can be said that this trip to the East was extremely successful.
If possible, Kolbe planned to visit the Ming Empire every five years.
After the completion of the Sudan Canal, which shortened the journey time, this frequency of travel became very reasonable.
Colbert even had a bold idea in his mind. If France gave up its homeland and moved to North America...
This is equivalent to directly acquiring land that is ten or even twenty times the size of the mainland. France's development prospects will be unprecedented.
Even excluding the southern part of North America occupied by Spain and the west coast area occupied by the Ming Empire.
Occupying only half of North America, France will become the top two countries in the world in one hundred or two hundred years!
Since the Ming Empire developed rapidly in all aspects, Kolbe was not sure whether it could surpass this Eastern Empire.
But leaving behind Spain, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Sweden and other countries, it is still very possible for France to achieve it if it does not make mistakes.
There is no doubt that this involves taking great risks, and comparing future returns can make people imagine.
Colbert, who felt hesitant and uneasy, had not yet made up his mind whether to mention this matter to His Majesty the King or Prime Minister Mazarin.
Just like the distant sea that has entered night, I don’t know whether the battleship will be greeted by a storm or a rainbow after passing by...
