Chapter 216: Allah's Horn Xu Wei


New week, new students.

"Hello, teacher, my name is Xu Wei."

A young man of fifteen years old bowed and said hello to Xunze.

This name sounds familiar.

Xunze was sure that he had heard this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it at the moment, so he arranged a room for him first.

Zhong Ziqi and Yu Boya continued to study music in the Oasis World this week.

The three Li brothers were curious about how they could change the world with their own hands, so they asked Xunze to play them historical information films about the Three Kingdoms of Yingzhou, Penglai and Fangzhang.

So before going to bed at night, I asked Xunze to have time to check the information to see what story Xu Wei had in history.

Xu Wei, born March 12, 1521-1593, was born in Shanyin, Shaoxing Prefecture.

He was a famous literary director, writer, military strategist, calligrapher and painter in the Ming Dynasty.

Because the film he shot profoundly reflected the political corruption and rampant power of the Ming Dynasty at that time, the film was banned from being released many times, and he even spent time in jail.

Later, because there were no investors to invest in making movies, Xu Wei had to sell off his property in order to make movies, which made him live in poverty in his later years.

After many suicide attempts, Xu Wei chose to live in seclusion in the countryside and eventually died of illness.

It turned out to be him.

After reading Xu Wei's profile, Xunze suddenly remembered who Xu Wei was.

In the initial history, although Xu Wei was not well-known in modern times, he was frighteningly famous in ancient times.

Not only was he known as one of the three talented men of the Ming Dynasty, but there were also many literati in later generations who claimed to be willing to be his lackeys.

However, although his talent is amazing, Xu Wei is really a bit of a mediocre person.

Xu Wei, who has been extremely talented since childhood, has been called the tenth son of Yuezhong, but Shen Lian, who is also the tenth son of Yuezhong, does not dare to rank with him, saying that behind closed doors, there is only Xu Wei.

However, in that era, talent did not mean everything.

Xu Wei's mother was just a maid of the royal wife and had no status.

So after his father died, the wife of the wife kicked his mother out of the house.

However, the royal wife was very kind to Xu Wei and even raised Xu Wei personally.

But when Xu Wei was fourteen years old, his wife also passed away.

Xu Wei could only live with his eldest brother, who was thirty-seven years older than him, and always depended on others.

In the Ming Dynasty of that era, although the examination system was well established, in order to prevent the people at the bottom from being able to stand up, the powerful stipulated that those who want to be admitted to a good university must be proficient in ancient Chinese.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty had begun to popularize simple and easy-to-write simplified Chinese characters on a large scale.

Even in traditional Chinese characters, many students could not write, let alone fully grasp the difference between small seal script and large seal script, the interpretation of oracle bone inscriptions and the detailed explanations of many ancient articles. .

It’s not that this knowledge has been lost, but that very few people currently know this knowledge, and only some private schools hire teachers to provide specialized teaching.

And students who enter private schools without money or connections, even if they want to buy ancient documents for self-study, will find that not only are there few types of ancient documents, but there are also many errors in the ancient documents on the market, making it impossible to fully grasp ancient texts by reading them.

This is actually the reason why the south responded with overwhelming response when the revolutionary army stood up for an uprising in the late Ming Dynasty.

Because of this approach of the Ming Dynasty government, many civilians had no chance of making a comeback, and they completely monopolized the promotion channels for people at the bottom.

However, Xu Wei lived in an era when the Ming Dynasty was still doing well, so Xu Wei could only accept that no matter how hard he worked, he would never be able to get into a prestigious university.

But even if he couldn't go to a famous university, Xu Wei could still choose to go to some good schools at that time.

It's just that the fees of these good schools are very high, and Xu Wei's eldest brother is not willing to pay for Xu Wei.

Desperate, Xu Wei had no choice but to agree to be the son-in-law of a landlord's family and collect enough tuition to study.

But even though he had become a door-to-door son-in-law, fate did not let Xu Wei go.

After Xu Wei finished his studies and returned home after graduation, his wife died of illness.

His father-in-law believed that this was because Xu Wei did not take good care of his daughter, so he drove Xu Wei out of the house mercilessly.

Xu Wei originally wanted to return to his eldest brother's house, but his eldest brother died early because he was addicted to alchemy.

His second brother died of illness in Guizhou, and the Xu family's original family property was also taken over by some powerful people.

Desperate, Xu Wei wrote two articles that denounced Yan Song, the then Speaker of the House of Lords: Today's Song and Erma Poetry, and then relied on his status as a college student to become an officer in the military camp.

At that time, the three overseas countries had risen, and there were always wars and frictions with the Ming Dynasty on the sea.

In land operations, the three overseas countries are not as good as the Ming Dynasty, but the navy has always been the weakness of the Ming Dynasty, so the Ming Dynasty always loses more and wins less.

Gold will shine wherever it goes.

This sentence is not wrong at all.

Xu Wei quickly became familiar with the army due to his interest in military matters in his early years, and attracted the attention of Hu Zongxian, the then naval governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, who recruited him into the staff department.

Xu Wei, who entered the staff department, also made great contributions soon after.

The combat plans he formulated achieved successive successes, allowing the Ming Dynasty to reverse its decline in the East China Sea in one fell swoop.

Of course, Xu Wei not only showed his military talents in the military camp, but also made his literary talents known to the world.

Although the Governor-General of the Fujian and Zhejiang Navy has made considerable contributions, if the upper and lower houses cannot be made aware of the value of this credit, then all the efforts of the Fujian and Zhejiang Navy will be in vain.

So Xu Wei successively helped Hu Zongxian write several articles detailing the significance of the victory of the Fujian and Zhejiang Navy and submitted them to the Upper and Lower Houses, causing both the emperor and the Upper and Lower Houses to issue awards to the Fujian and Zhejiang Navy one after another.

In the end, Hu Zongxian's trust in Xu Wei reached the point where he handed over most of the official documents to him.

But just when Xu Wei thought his fortune was turning, Hu Zongxian's backer Yan Song failed in the political struggle and was directly handed over to the final panel for trial on charges of corruption and perversion of the law.

Yan Song's downfall soon implicated Hu Zongxian.

Hu Zongxian was first dismissed from his post and then taken into the imperial capital for trial.

Hu Zongxian, who had made great contributions at that time, was treated like this, not to mention the people under Hu Zongxian.

Those who were lucky were dismissed from their posts, and those who were unlucky were directly framed and killed.

Xu Wei, who was known as the first staff officer in the Southeast at that time, was repeatedly investigated by the investigation team.

I don’t know if the investigation team used some criminal laws against humanity.

At the end of the investigation, Xu Wei was on the verge of collapse and fell into mental disorder.

He first used an ax to chop his own head.

As a result, his skull was broken and he did not die.

Then he pulled out the three-inch long iron nail from the wall and inserted it hard into his ear.

In the end, he still didn't die.

He was taken to the hospital and treated for several months before he recovered.

After being discharged from the hospital, Xu Wei did not give up the idea of ​​committing suicide.

He used an awl to crush his kidney capsule, but he still survived.

However, in order to prevent Xu Wei from committing suicide, Xu Wei's wife at the time was accidentally injured by Xu Wei and died on the spot.

As soon as Xu Wei's wife died, the investigation team, which was struggling to find Xu Wei's fault, immediately submitted Xu Wei to the court for murder and sentencing.

Xu Wei spent a total of seven years in prison.

He was not released from prison until the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world.

After Xu Wei was released from prison, film technology became nearly mature and the market became increasingly large.

Xu Wei, who thought this thing was very novel, asked his former friends for help, formed a crew, and started making movies.

All I can say is that a genius is a genius.

Xu Wei's first film was a huge success and he became famous in this country again.

At that time, many investors asked Xu Wei to make movies by name, and Xu Wei refused to accept them.

As long as they did not interfere with his filming, he was fine.

In this way, Xu Wei has been making movies for five years and produced many good films.

As more and more films were shot at that time, Xu Wei's films became more and more close to reality, reflecting on society and criticizing some of the chaos in society at that time.

This led to Xu Wei being arrested for defamation when he was filming a movie in the fifth year.

Fortunately, some of Xu Wei's former friends became governors in the north, so they rescued him and invited him to travel north.

Xu Wei readily agreed to his friend's invitation.

Soon after arriving in the north, under the introduction of the legendary general Qi Jiguang, he went to Liaodong to meet with Li Chengliang, the commander of the Northeast Military Region.

When Xu Wei came to the headquarters of the Northeast Military Region Commander, he did not identify himself at first, but said that he was invited by a friend to come here to teach the art of war.

Teach the art of war to a commander in charge of an army of hundreds of thousands.

As soon as Xu Wei's words came out, the people in the headquarters laughed.

At that time, Li Chengliang tentatively asked about Xu Wei's origins.

After Xu Wei reported his family status, he immediately bowed ninety degrees to show respect.

Li Chengliang knew what the name Xu Wei represented.

So after Xu Wei came to him, he gave his eldest son Li Rusong to Xu Wei and asked Xu Wei to teach Li Rusong the art of war.

Many years later, Li Rusong led the army to defeat the Penglai army, which was powerful at the time and was known as the strongest combat force in the three overseas countries in North Korea.

Both Li Chengliang and Qi Jiguang wanted Xu Wei to stay with them at that time.

But Xu Wei has already fallen in love with movies.

So after he finished teaching Li Rusong, he left Liaodong and returned to the south to film movies.

However, due to pressure from the court, no businessmen were willing to invest in Xu Wei.

Xu Wei could only sell off his property and his calligraphy and paintings to raise money to film movies.

Although most of these films were not released at the time, Xu Wei's evaluation by the later uprising military government was indeed unprecedentedly high.

In 1593, Xu Wei finished shooting the last work in his life, and then died of illness at home, with only a dog by his side.

Oh my god After reading Xu Wei's introduction, Ming Xunze suddenly wanted to ask Xu Wei if he also had a talking cat.

This experience is simply a template for a novel.

The identities and abilities he obtained through relying on Da Miao are not much better than those of Xu Wei.

Others are soldiers who return to the city and make a name for themselves.

Xu Wei, on the other hand, was a scholar who dominated the literary world, gave up writing and joined the army, then became a legendary commander, returned to the city and became a film master.

One person has been the protagonist of three novels:
