"The lonely smoke is straight in the desert, and the sun is setting in the long river. When Xiao Guan is waiting to ride, he will protect Yan Ran!"
"Sitting sideways on the golden saddle and flirting with white feathers, they shot five danyus one after another!"
"I am willing to put my sword down from my waist and kill Loulan!"
"If you are full of ambition in your life, you will find a title at the bottom of your arrow!"
"Man, why don't you take Wu Gou and capture the fifty states in Guanshan!"
"The husband holds the Wu hook with only one hand, and his spirit is higher than that of Baizhang Tower!"
…
One after another passionate poems set off huge waves in Chang'an City!
Everyone knows that Fang Erlang is "unparalleled in poetry" and "talented beyond recognition". He has written countless famous poems that can be sung for centuries. However, now that he wrote so many passionate poems just for the sake of recruiting soldiers, it has shocked the whole of Shilin.
!
No matter whether they are young masters from aristocratic families or children from poor families, they are all stimulated by these impassioned and heroic poems and their blood is boiling, and they are inexplicably excited!
The people who lead the trend in this world are scholars, and the people who are most susceptible to instigation are scholars.
Scholars can pursue power and bring chaos to the country, losing thousands of miles of land and rivers in the Ming Dynasty. Scholars can also continue to cut off their heads and keep their hair without abandoning Chinese clothes...
Once these earth-shattering poems by Fang Jun were published, they completely inspired the Chinese soul in the hearts of the scholars of the Tang Dynasty!
Corresponding to the countless young men who are eager to be exempted from military pay and go to join the army in Youtun Camp, there are countless scholars... The majestic China and the illustrious Tang Dynasty. When we devoted ourselves to the army and made contributions, how could we let this body be destroyed?
In Wenwen Township, your cozy home, be a peace dog?
*****
When His Majesty Li Er arrived at the Youtun camp outside Xuanwu Gate with Ma Zhou, Li Junxian, and the handsome Princess Changle dressed in men's clothing, they saw an endless stream of people pouring into the campus. The crowds were crowded and shoulders were rubbed.
Rub your heels.
Looking at those high-spirited young scholars in green shirts and silk scarves, His Majesty Li Er blinked hard, almost thinking he was dazzled...
"How come so many scholars came to join the army?"
His Majesty Li Er could not suppress his surprise and asked in a low voice.
Ma Zhou and Li Junxian shook their heads in confusion, unable to answer.
"A good man should not be a soldier, and a good iron should not be hammered with nails." Even though the Tang Dynasty advocated military merit and the status of military generals was extremely high, and the people also regarded the athletes who joined the army as the pride of the village, but not everyone bravely joined the army and regarded sacrificing their lives for the country as a priority.
For the supreme glory.
The reason is very simple, it is easy to die as a soldier...
"Don't you hear that in the two hundred states of Han Dynasty in Shandong, Jingqi grows in thousands of villages. Even if there are strong women with hoes and plows, there is nothing to grow in the long acres. What's more, the Qin soldiers endured hard battles and could not drive away dogs and chickens. Although the elders have
I asked, the servant dares to express his hatred. And it is winter this year, and the death of Guanxi has not yet stopped. The county magistrate is urgently asking for rent, where will the rent and tax come from?
I know that it is evil to have a boy, but it is good to have a girl. To have a girl is to marry a neighbor, but to have a boy is to be buried under the grass..."
Du Fu's "Army Chariots" would probably take another hundred years to be written, but the principles are the same. It was so difficult for people to join the army in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, let alone the early Tang Dynasty when all the generals were defeated and prospered?
For ordinary people, military merit is a very distant thing. After a battle, the corpses of ordinary soldiers are lying on the battlefield, but military merit can only help those high-ranking generals to advance to the next level and achieve glory.
What does it have to do with soldiers?
Leaving a small life to go back to serve your parents and see your wife and children is already a great blessing...
Unless military service is required by the imperial court, no one is willing to take the initiative to serve as a soldier.
Not to mention those scholars who have always believed that "people are superior". The children of aristocratic families have a tradition of martial arts. After entering the army, they are middle-level and high-level generals. During the war, they hide behind and supervise the soldiers charging into battle.
It is normal for Miao to turn around and run away. How many of them are serious enough to die for their country by wrapping themselves in horse leather?
From ancient times to the present, no scholar has ever been willing to be a big-headed soldier who can die on the battlefield anytime and anywhere...
But now, why are these scholars so excited?
…
"Brother Huaide, nice to meet you!"
"It turns out to be Xiandi Zhongming..."
At the gate of the camp, two young scholars from Qingshan Lunjin came to meet each other and greeted each other with surprise.
"Brother Huaide also came to join the army?"
"Exactly, I was infected by some of Fang Erlang's poems yesterday, and my heart was so agitated that I couldn't calm down, so I bid farewell to my parents, joined the army, and held a three-foot sword to bring peace to the people, in order to fulfill my lifelong ambition. Speaking of which, I haven't met my good brother for a long time, shouldn't I?
Will you also come to join the army?"
"Haha, my elder brother has lived in a wealthy family for many generations, but he can still give up his wealth and honor to serve his family and country. My younger brother is so poor that he has nothing to grow. How can he regret that he is brave and passionate? I would rather be a centurion than a scholar!
My younger brother is not good at school and has no hope of an official career. If he has a long tassel in his hands, he may be able to fight for a title of marquis, worship the general, and make his wife a shadow. Anyway, there are still brothers at home to take care of you. Even if your blood is spilled on the battlefield, you will not be born in vain and become a descendant of China!"
These words were so impassioned that all the young people nearby who came to join the army were excited and agreed.
Brother Huaide had a strange look on his face and quietly pulled him aside. He happened to be standing next to His Majesty Li Er and the others, and said in a low voice: "The words of a wise brother are absurd! Forgive me for being frank, I just studied in a private school for a few days."
If you have no family background to rely on, how can you be taken seriously in the military? Without the support of your family, even if it is a great achievement, how can you get your turn..."
His Majesty Li Er heard clearly and frowned mightily.
This is the truth, although it sounds very unpleasant...
But "Brother Zhongming" smiled disapprovingly and said: "Brother's words are absurd... Since Fang Erlang became an official, he has been fighting with the family members, and he has never given any face to the family members.
.Do you think that under Fang Erlang, it will happen that all the meritorious achievements are taken over by the children of the aristocratic family? Therefore, it is the younger brother who wants to advise the elder brother. Although we have different identities and different statuses, it is precisely because the elder brother comes from a famous family.
In Fang Erlang's army, it is even more difficult to get care..."
Brother Huaide was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said: "My dear brother's words are reasonable, but he is shallow. How can Fang Erlang, who can write 'The heavy snow weighs the green pines, the green pines are straight and straight', collude with our family?"
Greedy for military glory? However, a good brother has a saying, and I don’t agree with it. My brother is also a seven-foot man, how can he rely on his family background to stand in this world? Let’s join the army together and fight side by side, three thousand miles away.
Marquis!"
"Haha, my brother is really brave and upright. It is a blessing for me to be friends with him! We should help each other and make great achievements together! Let's go together!"
"Go together, go together!"
The two looked at each other and laughed, holding hands and heading to the registration point together.
His Majesty Li Er looked at the tall and straight backs of the two men and thought to himself that the reputation of Fang Er is so high now?
I originally used him as a sword, as a "vanguard" to suppress the family members, but unexpectedly, this guy's reputation among the people was so high...
"Ouch!"
Suddenly, a burst of exclamation came from the campus.
"Mom! How many have you made?"
"Is it more than a hundred? This man is amazing. He did that pull-up just now for more than a hundred."
"My arms are shaking when I do five. This guy is so awesome!"
Many young people who were still waiting in line for selection rushed towards a registration point in the west when they heard the news. The crowd was crowded and they exclaimed from time to time.
His Majesty Li Er was curious at heart, so he turned back to Li Junxian and said, "Let's go over and have a look."
Li Junxian said: "Here!"
There were so many people that it was impossible to squeeze through. Li Junxian immediately took out the "Baiqisi" badge and threw it to the few Baiqi who were just following behind to protect His Majesty's safety.
The few Baiqi took their waist badges, and three of them walked in front, holding their waist badges in their hands. They separated from the young man in front of them, and while squeezing in, they shouted loudly: "'Hundred Knights' are doing business, and idlers should avoid it!"
"
The young man who was squeezed in front turned around and was about to get angry, but when he saw the white jade waist badge with the word "Hundred Cavalry" engraved in the middle, his face changed, he didn't dare to say a word, and he quickly moved away.
Play aside.
Who doesn't know that "Hundred Cavalry" is the emperor's eagle dog?
If you provoke this gang of thugs, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around...
The crowd was like a divided tide, and a passage emerged from the middle. Li Junxian stood in front of His Majesty Li Er, and His Majesty Li Er followed behind with his hands behind his back. He looked at the panicked crowd and snorted in a low voice,
Said: "General Li is so majestic and evil!"
Li Junxian's heart skipped a beat and sweat broke out on his forehead...
If you think "Baiqisi" is so evil, you can't blame me!
But at this moment, he didn't even think about defending himself. He kept scanning the crowd around him. Although they were all the children of Guanzhong who came to join the army, who knew if there were people with ulterior motives sneaking in here?
