Jinni Ge explained to Bi Fangji that color is not red, but if it is said that everything that is not black is red, then the logic does not make sense."
Long Huamin took over and said, "The number of elite soldiers like the Ming Dynasty must be very small, so the war is unfavorable." This should be red and black."
"That's right. The red and black colors in a specific situation are specific assumptions." Jinnige added.
!
"Oh, I see."
Bi Fangji understood.
These few elite soldiers stay with us to make us think that the Ming Dynasty is strong.
This is something that several people agree on.
But it’s not just these two contents.
This incident cannot lead to the conclusion that "these small number of elite soldiers are staying with us to make us think that the Ming Dynasty is very strong."
Because of single linear logic, we can indeed make a derivation: The number of elite soldiers in the Ming Dynasty was very small → That’s why the war was unfavorable → These few elite soldiers stayed by our side → In order to make us think that the Ming Dynasty was strong → Missionaries were needed to help create
Weapons training for the new army.
If it is a hypothetical math problem, then this is okay.
However, this is a specific assumption.
Assume there are only red and black.
A simple counterexample: A small number of elite soldiers stay with us, perhaps because Wang Hongyu can lead these soldiers, rather than to make the missionaries think that the Ming Dynasty is strong.
This breaks the logic of single assumption.
Even the specifics of red and black are not necessarily consistent with the facts.
Another simple counterexample: The war in the Ming Dynasty was unfavorable, maybe because there were blind commanders who did not understand military affairs, maybe because the logistics supplies were not done well, maybe because some of our own people suddenly rebelled, so the number of elite soldiers must be very small.
There were loopholes in Long Huamin's words.
Jin Nige and Bi Fangji were not moved by him.
"Okay, then I will ask some questioning missionaries and see what they say."
"what?"
"Ask the southern soldiers among them, are the Jiubian soldiers stronger or weaker than them?
Ask the northern soldiers among them, are the Sichuan and Zhejiang native soldiers stronger or weaker than them?"
Long Huamin was a little proud. He was very confident in the information he had obtained.
Those civil servants told him that Jiubian had always been dissatisfied with the Southern Army, and the Southern Army felt that Jiubian was bullying them.
If you ask, you will come to the conclusion that the Nine Sides are bad and the South Army is bad.
Then the missionaries will no longer stay on Wang Hongyu's pirate ship.
The mobile library is open to the public. Wang Hongyu has promoted it in many ways, allowing the audience to visit at any time. At the same time, he announced that he would open a book printing workshop in Baoding and a bookstore in Baoding City; he would set up book sales and book rental projects.
With the support of Governor Han Jun, a drama was specially prepared to warm up the cultural industry.
Drama is considered a new content, and it is announced to the outside world as new storytelling, which adds a lot more vivid stage performances than traditional storytelling.
In order to attract readers to buy the upcoming printing of "Don Quixote", the theme of the play is an excerpt from "Don Quixote".
Wang Hongyu, Li Tiezhu, Wang Zheng, Jin Nige, Bi Fanji and others participated in the performance.
Before the performance, he made a poster to introduce the story outline of the part to be performed:
The protagonist of "Don Quixote" was originally named Alonzo Quijada, a country boy. He was fascinated by the knights who were popular in society at that time, and he also wanted to imitate the knights and become a knight-errant.
He dreamed of being like those knights, majestically hating evil and promoting good. He indulged in his fantasy and ended up doing a lot of stupid things.
He found a pair of tattered pieces of armor from the family heirlooms, named himself Don Quixote de La Mancha, and found a servant Sancho; and a milkmaid from a neighboring village, he named
Dulcinia, as the person she loves to serve her all her life.
Then he got on a skinny horse and ran away from home. Don Quixote also acted according to the weird ideas in his mind, causing many ridiculous things. Not only did his actions not benefit others, but he himself was beaten and suffered.
The drama performance was very lively and novel. People saw the new style of storytelling, and many people came to watch it. They received some rewards, and more importantly, the reputation spread.
Wang Hongyu said in the advertisement that there are many ridiculous things in this book.
When you see Don Quixote riding an old horse and fighting windmills because he really wants to try the life of a knight, you can't help but laugh out loud. What a stupid thing this is!
Although everyone doesn't know much about European knights, you can tell from the name and introduction that they are warriors with status. Through Wang Hongyu's propaganda, you probably know that in the West, knights have the same status as scribes here.
Since he is a person of status, how could a knight be so naive?
So much so that he described the copper pot that everyone knew as an all-powerful golden helmet, not to mention how ridiculous it was.
When he saw a group of sheep, he thought they were transformed monsters, and when he slaughtered the sheep with a gun, he was knocked off his horse by a shepherd boy with stones, and his nose and face were bruised and swollen, and three teeth were missing. You will laugh out loud.
The play performed such a story: a group of prisoners were escorted onto the ship. Don Quixote rode his skinny horse and brandished a rusty iron gun, and rescued these prisoners as detained knights.
As a result, he was severely beaten by the prisoner leader, and I believe there will be more victims. Because what he rescued was not a knight, but a group of criminals who had done many evil things.
Since the governor has been arranging manpower to publicize Wang Hongyu's deeds in the past few days, the people immediately thought of Liaodong.
Don Quixote mistook the prisoners for good people and rescued them, but he almost lost his life in the hands of these prisoners. Coincidentally, Yuan Yingtai saved tens of thousands of Mongolian refugees, and what he got in return was:
Nearly 100,000 Ming troops were lost, hundreds of thousands of Han people in Liaodong became slaves, two big cities and a large area of land were lost, and they also risked their own lives, and they will remain in disgrace for thousands of years after their death.
There was depth in the laughter, which left a deep impression on everyone.
Later, when he saw a windmill, he thought it was a giant's arm, so he pierced the wings of the windmill with his spear. Just then there was a gust of wind, and the windmill broke his spear into several pieces. Don Quixote, both man and horse,
Was thrown out.
The people laughed heartily when they saw it.
But I also remembered the government's propaganda these days. The Hunhe Army was very supportive of technological inventions and recruited skilled craftsmen. Some traditional Confucian scribes still despised this.
Aren't these corrupt scholars just like Don Quixote?
The book "Don Quixote" satirizes people like Don Quixote and himself.
In fact, "Don Quixote" is a true portrayal of the psychology of some people today.
These people include rotten Confucians.
Most of the officials present, including Han Jun, were hard workers.
They understood from Don Quixote, a ridiculous living textbook, that they should put real life first, and that they should not be divorced from reality when studying or setting aspirations, otherwise they might end up like Don Quixote and Yuan Yingtai.
Wang Hongyu is truly a genius for being able to understand and perform such a play.
