Chapter 208: Injecting military soul with military songs
Looking at the new recruits waving their fists and shouting.
Zhang Liao, who was following Cao Ang, was also filled with emotions.
Cao Ang's words sometimes have a magical power that can confuse people's hearts.
Unconsciously, people fall into the dreams he creates for others, making them unable to extricate themselves.
At this moment, Zhang Liao was too lazy to continue standing. He simply put down his airs and sat directly among the crowd to listen to Cao Ang's speech.
Seeing this, Cao Ang was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
At this time, he said to everyone present: "The battlefield is a place where you have to fight for your life."
"It's very dangerous there. Even a veteran can't guarantee that he will survive."
"Not to mention that there are many of us who have never even seen a battlefield."
Cao Ang shook his head and said: "I am not a god."
"Perhaps I can help you cultivate the land so that you don't have to worry about food and clothing."
"I can also hire a large number of craftsmen and let everyone live in tall buildings."
"But I can't guarantee that everyone who goes to the battlefield with me will survive."
"The only thing I can do is push you to your limits."
"Let your strength be greater than the enemy's, let your speed be faster than the enemy's, and let your physical strength be more abundant than the enemy's."
"Let you..."
Cao Ang said with a bitter look on his face: "Survive as much as possible."
Joining the army is not about treating guests to a meal, nor is it about traveling.
Especially in these troubled times, soldiers are faced with the risk of losing their lives almost all the time.
Maybe someone was chatting and laughing with friends nearby during the day, but at night he turned into a cold corpse and was carried back.
Maybe some people can still jump around during the day, but at night they are missing arms and legs, and they have to live with the pain caused by war for the rest of their lives.
Although Cao Ang only experienced one war.
But during that war, he saw too many such people.
Although it didn't happen to him, the pain and fear made him die. forget.
To be honest, if possible, he would never want to see anyone die in front of him again in his entire life.
But troubled times are like this, and no one can reverse it.
And all he can do is keep as many people alive as possible.
Although training is hard, it is better than losing your life.
"Everyone is the backbone of the family."
"They are all the father of the child, the husband of the lady, and the son of the lady."
"I don't want everyone to go to the battlefield unless necessary."
"But the current situation is here. If we don't stand up, our homeland will be destroyed."
Cao Ang pursed his lips and said: "And I don't want to see anyone being carried back or put in bottles after a war..."
Hearing this, many people pursed their lips tightly.
Although they didn't make a sound, it could be seen from their expressions that they were not in a calm mood.
The atmosphere at the scene also became extremely depressing at this moment.
Cao Ang chuckled: "Okay, that's the end of it."
"As I said, if anyone wants to quit, they can come to me at any time."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and Diao Chan walked towards this side with a group of people carrying various musical instruments.
Seeing these people, the new recruits were also a little confused.
What is my young master going to do?
Is it possible that you want people like you to play and sing?
Cao Ang faced the crowd and said, "As for me, I prefer listening to music as well as singing."
"There's nothing to do today, so I'll sing a song for everyone."
"If you are willing, you can sing along with me."
After speaking, Cao Ang nodded to Diao Chan.
Diao Chan understood and immediately played the first beat on the guqin in front of her.
Everyone also started playing in the order of rehearsal.
The song Cao Ang is going to sing is a very easy song to learn.
It is also a relatively famous song in later generations.
As the melodious sound of the piano sounded, Cao Ang also began to sing with great emotion.
"A big river has wide waves, and the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides..."
"My family lives on the shore. I'm used to hearing the boatman's calls and seeing the white sails on the boat..."
At this point, Diao Chan and others began to sing along.
"This is a beautiful motherland, where I grew up."
"In this vast land, there are beautiful scenery everywhere..."
Melodious, euphemistic and beautiful piano sound.
Popular, easy to understand, friendly lyrics,
When people listen to it, they can immediately feel the feelings contained in the lyrics.
This gave everyone present goosebumps, and they couldn't help but miss their hometown, their hometown.
Even after Cao Ang left, some people couldn't help but get together and sing loudly.
When Cao Ang looked back and saw such a scene, he couldn't help but smile.
Most of his team are northern men.
To a certain extent, the northern soldiers are a double-edged sword.
First of all, northern men have better physiques and greater strength than southern men, and most of them are taller and have longer arms.
The shortcomings are also obvious. Compared with southern men, they are more likely to lose control and get easily taken advantage of.
Even though they do this, they will also show a fierce and unafraid of death.
But the most taboo thing in war is to be careless, hot-headed, and reckless of the consequences.
Because at that time, many people could not calm down, and the general's orders fell on deaf ears.
Therefore, when northern soldiers fight, especially when fighting hard battles, , nine out of ten times it will result in a battle loss rate of killing one thousand enemies and damaging oneself eight hundred.
The concepts that Cao Ang first instilled in everyone were 'military soul' and 'discipline'.
Still remember that there was an army in his original world.
They are well-disciplined and well-organized.
When a general is given an order, even if he only has an engineering shovel at hand, he still dares to risk his life to fight with the enemy.
They shed blood on the battlefield and had no regrets.
There is almost no need to fight with anyone, just relying on his momentum can make people frightened.
This shows how terrifying an army can be if it has a military spirit.
And such an army, even after so many years in this world, Cao Ang has never seen it in any army.
But he has no other abilities, and the skill of deceiving people is definitely his strength.
During the free time during training, he would give political lessons to everyone.
Sometimes, he would tell everyone historical stories or heroic legends he compiled.
His purpose is the same, which is to inject soul into this army, to inject a soul of patriotism, love for family, and love for the world.
He wants everyone to become fanatical patriotism.
And this is the real chicken soup for the soul.
Because of this chicken soup, the new recruits trained very hard and hard during the day.
At night, a group of people would gather together and sing the songs Cao Ang taught them over and over again.
The songs Professor Cao Ang gave them were mainly military songs.
Such as 'unity is strength', 'a good man must be a soldier', 'green military camp' and so on.
He didn't even let go of songs like "Serve the Country with Loyalty".
Don’t forget, this is an era of simple folk customs.
Although Cao Ang's method seems simple, it is extremely effective.
Just half a month later, everything is different...
