The night was dark, and the valley was already asleep.The moon in the sky of Wuruo Net also seemed to show tiredness, and it was a little dim.The stars also blinked tiredly.Except for a few insect chirps, the entire valley was silent.Suddenly, a sonorous and powerful song broke the silence of the night.As soon as the singing of "the military song is loud and the pace is neat", immediately followed, the singing voices of hundreds of people sounded at the same time: "The military song is loud and the pace is neat." ”"The Tang army has iron discipline."
Another man's singing."
The Tang army has iron discipline."
The singing of hundreds of people followed closely again.Inside the arsenal, the people who had already fallen asleep were awakened by the sudden sound of singing in the middle of the night.Many people put on their clothes and walked out of the room, looking in the direction from which the song came.There, it was the camp of Yu Chi Baolin's department."
Isn't the outer Yiwei crazy and doesn't sleep and sing at night?"
spoke, Du Wei, the procurement manager of the Arsenal Special Administration."
Brother Du, where are they singing, they are clearly teaching songs" Du Wei was standing beside him, and it was the head of the manufacturing office of the Arsenal Separate Agency."
Is Yu Chi Baolin sick, this still doesn't let people sleep" Du Wei expressed his dissatisfaction with Yu Chi Baolin's department.Fang Yi said straightly: "Let's go talk to the Commander and let him interfere." ”At this moment, Yan Liben walked over and said, "You don't have to move, I have already gone to Lord Zhao's room to see it, and my lord is not here." ”"Where did the Commander go?"
Du Gou said in surprise.Yan Liben smiled slightly and said, "Listening to this song, the tune is rhythmic and extremely powerful, which is very different from the tune of my Tang Dynasty nowadays.I pondered, this kind of tune, except for Lord Zhao, no one else in us and the entire arsenal can make it. ”Fang Yi Zhihu said suspiciously: "Lord Yan means that it is Zhao who ordered the Yiwei to sing outside the sect" "Ranye" Yan Liben nodded.Du Gou scratched his head and said, "What is Lord Zhao doing, when is it not possible to teach songs, but it should be chosen late at night" Yan Liben smiled and said: "Ordering adults to act has always been unexpected.He did it for his own reasons. ”After speaking, Yan Li shouted to the subordinates of the Arsenal who were looking around in the courtyard and whispering: "Don't be nervous, everyone, it's the night drill of the Yiwei on the periphery.Let's all go back to bed. ”When those subordinates heard Yan Liben's words, they all entered the house one after another.After Du Wei and Fang Zhizhi also said goodbye to Yan Liben, they each went back to their rooms.The sound of singing songs continued.Yan Liben stood in the courtyard, listened to it with interest for a while, and then said to himself: "This kind of tune is a song that suits the taste of people in the army.High-spirited, excited, and exciting, it makes people's blood boil when they hear it" After sighing, Yan Liben also went back to his room to sleep.As for whether he can sleep or not, only he knows.The singing of that night sounded for most of the hour before it stopped.Many of the people in the arsenal were disturbed by the singing, and they kept cursing Yu Chi Baolin and Yu Chi Baolin's troops.It is said that many people in Yu Chi Baolin's department sneezed several times in a row that night.And Zhao Yunze, the initiator of this play, didn't sneeze a single sneeze.Early the next morning, the people in the arsenal were busy.Clean and hygienic, arrange the venue, and prepare to welcome the arrival of Li Shimin and others.A platform has been erected on the playground of the Arsenal Annex.Behind the table hung a curtain; On the table, there is an incense case; On the curtain behind the incense case, there are two portraits, one is the god Xiao He, and the other is the god of fire Zhurong.Usually, the yamen is opened, and only Xiao He is worshipped; Because the arsenal was a yamen that manufactured firearms, Zhao Yunze moved the fire god Zhu Rong out to worship together.The people of the Arsenal Office were busy for nearly an hour before they made all the preparations for the opening of the office.After that, each is in place.Except for the personnel who were in charge of greeting, serving, and guarding, the rest of the subordinates of the other office were all lined up on the playground, waiting for Li Shimin's arrival.A hundred people from Wei Chi Baolin's headquarters also entered the arsenal and lined up on the playground.They split into two teams and stood on either side of the playground, forming a "U" shape with the team from the Arsenal Department.The opening of the "U" is facing the platform.Zhao Yunze took the high- and middle-level officials of the Arsenal Separate Office to the bottom of the archway one mile away from the Arsenal Special Administration, waiting for the arrival of Li Shimin and others.When they were approaching, Li Shimin and the others finally appeared in Zhao Yunze's field of vision.In addition to Li Shimin, there are also Gao Shilian, eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Yu Zhining, Wen Yanbo, Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong, Qin Qiong and other bigwigs.These ministers who accompanied Li Shimin to the Arsenal Special Office were all Li Shimin's closest courtiers.After everyone entered the arsenal, they first went to the main hall to drink tea for a while and rest.After that, they went to the playground of the arsenal annex together.As soon as they saw Li Shimin coming, everyone on the playground knelt down to Li Shimin at the same time.After Li Shimin calmed down everyone, he delivered an enthusiastic speech, encouraging everyone to work hard.After that, it is the ceremony to worship the god of Ya.Yan Liben served as the singing officer, and Zhao Yunze accompanied Li Shimin as an acting order.As soon as the sacrifice ended, nine thunders rang out on the playground.It was a bamboo rocket that Zhao Yunze arranged for someone to set off.Those rockets were all made by the Arsenal Special Administration during the period when they were preparing for the opening of the government.Because it was used for ceremonies, the gunpowder of the rocket was wrapped in thick red paper, which was not lethal.When it was fired, it was facing the sky again, and the red paper wrapped in gunpowder was exploded and scattered, which added to the festive atmosphere.The reason why the nine rings are set off is to imply the nine years of the founding of the Tang Dynasty.Because Zhao Yunze informed Li Shimin and other guests of the opening ceremony in advance when he was in the main hall, when the rocket exploded, the guests were not frightened.However, the thunderous sound still greatly shocked the few Wenchen who heard this kind of movement for the first time.After the worship ceremony, it was the finale of the day.Zhao Yunze arranged for someone to remove the incense case on the stage, and at the same time moved the portraits of the two gods of the guardian to the specially set up shrine in the other office for worship.After that, Zhao Yunze invited Li Shimin and other guests to the stage.He himself ran to the middle of the playground, shouted the password to adjust the formation, and personally presided over the military parade.The team of craftsmen and envoys retreated to the edge of the playground, and the four teams participating in the parade stood in the line in Zhao Yunze's command."
Take a break, Lizheng" After giving the "Lizheng" command, Zhao Yunze turned back and ran to Li Shimin to salute, and Li Shimin followed Zhao Yunze's example and returned the salute."
Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the members of the Arsenal Special Agency have finished lining up, please review" "Let's start" Li Shimin nodded."
Yes" After saluting each other again, Li Shimin stepped off the stage, accompanied by Zhao Yunze, and inspected the four teams.Whenever they walked in front of a square team, the leader of the square team gave the command of "salute", and everyone in the square team turned their heads to Li Shimin and Zhao Yunze at the same time, and shouted "Long live, long live, long live, long live".The eyes of everyone in the square team slowly moved with the footsteps of Li Shimin and Zhao Yunze.When Li Shimin and Zhao Yunze walked past the team, the team leader gave the command of "salute" again, and everyone in the team withdrew their eyes at the same time.Soon, the four teams finished the review, and Li Shimin walked back to the stage."
At the beginning of the column, the teams of all sides adjusted their formations, and the pacesetters were in place" Zhao Yunze finished giving the order, and then he also got on the stage and stood at the end of the general's side.The drums sounded, the pacesetters were in place, and the teams adjusted their formations.Everything is going according to the previous joint exercises.The first team stepped on the drum and walked not far from the platform in unison.Here, on the edge of the playground stands a pacesetter.Here, this is the position where the unistep is changed to a positive step."
Look to the right", the two leaders of the first team, Su Dingfang and Qin Huaiyu, gave the order to change their footwork.Hu Jiang in the team also raised his heart to his throat.Because what he agreed with the four drummers was to disrupt the drum beat at this time.The password voice just fell.Suddenly, the two teams standing on the edge of the playground led by Yu Chi Baolin sang together.The song "The military song is loud and the pace is neat, and the Tang army has iron discipline" This song is one that Zhao Yunze selected from the military moral group songs sung by the army in later generations, and the song is called the song of strict discipline.Zhao Yunze changed the lyrics slightly, and taught the singing to the 100 officers and soldiers selected by Wei Chi Baolin's department last night.The rhythm of this disciplined song is the tempo of the march, which is just right for singing in line with the pace as the procession marches.Zhao Yunze just wanted to use this song to replace the marching rhythm of the drum command team.The hundred people who sang were all loud voices, and as soon as the song came out, the drums were directly covered.Moreover, the singing is more attention-grabbing than the drums.The people in the square team unconsciously kicked up their steps according to the rhythm of the song, and there was no confusion in their steps.What's even more interesting is that the four drummers who were originally told by Hu Jiang to disrupt the drum beat at this time unconsciously cooperated with the singing and still maintained the correct drum rhythm.Although there were two people who came to their senses and forcibly beat the drum again, the sound of only two drums was too small compared to the singing and the other correct drum beats.It doesn't work at all.Hu Jiang also unconsciously kicked to the rhythm of the song, he wanted to deliberately make the bad kick mess up.However, the positive step is different from the unilateral step, and once you kick it, it is very difficult to change the pace of the knot.Hu Jiang can only move forward with this rhythm.His heart was as dead as ashes
