Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 73 Promoting one's ambition with poetry

Chapter 73 Promoting aspirations with poems, promoted two ranks

"Naturally, I will approve it for you, and you will receive a batch of supplies from the Jiangnan Military Department."

Zhang Songyue nodded when he was asked about the food and pay for the army.

This is all within the plan of the monarch and his ministers, so they can naturally agree.

Otherwise, if you don't even pay for the military supplies, you will become a complete private soldier.

But Zhang Songyue changed the subject and urged:

"But there is only food and no salary. The salary is the 2 taels. You can ask the Jiangnan gentry to donate some of the rest."

The implication is that there are clothes to wear and food to eat.

But no fixed salary.

Even so, Zhang Songyue added:

"It's not good to train too many new troops, so as not to waste money and people."

That's all, is it too much?
No wonder the Japanese pirates are so hard to suppress, so no one can suppress them!

If you don't give money, who will work hard?

At this moment Feng Yibo even wondered if Zhao Wensong was wronged?
Could it be that he wants to make money first, and use it to train soldiers and suppress Japanese?
Otherwise, why would he hug money like a fool.

This kind of money has life to take, but also life to spend?
This thought is only for a moment.

next second.

Feng Yibo was thinking in his mind what else he could ask for.

He tentatively asked first, "Then can we train thousands of people first?"

"Three thousand first!" Zhang Songyue made a decision directly.

Fearing that Feng Yibo would think too little, he drew big cakes again.

"If we win two games, it won't be too late to expand."

"Okay! Then there are three thousand soldiers! I will appoint and dismiss the officers in the battalion."

Zhengbing is the main combat force.

Three thousand soldiers are not too small.

Counting the auxiliary soldiers, there are at least 5000 people.

Even tens of thousands is not impossible.

Of course, Feng Yibo must have a policy of elite soldiers.

Do not engage in crowd tactics.

Moreover, the three thousand soldiers were just his ambush.

The right to appoint and dismiss officers later is what he wants most.

It's a pity that Zhang Songyue easily sees through this little thought,
He shook his head, expressionless said:
"Officer, you are still transferring people from various battalions in the south of the Yangtze River. You can't find people who have never led soldiers, can you?"

Feng Yibo was a little unwilling, and fought hard:

"Then it's okay to use those that are not in need?"

"can."

Zhang Songyue nodded without thinking too much.

This answer was finally within Feng Yibo's acceptable range.

But he nodded and made another request.

"There are also sailors who need to listen to me, otherwise they won't be able to catch up with the Japanese pirates!"

"This can be discussed. The cabinet will make a report to the Ministry of War in Nanjing, and let it handle it as appropriate."

"..."

In this way, the two of them came and went.

They all try their best to move around within their own limits.

In the end, all the conditions were negotiated.

Zhang Songyue and Emperor Jing Shun nodded to signal the end.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Jingshun said: "Editor Feng, besides these, do you have anything else to say?"

After negotiating all the conditions, Feng Yibo is quite satisfied.

Hearing this, he bowed his hands to Bi Dan: "Before I leave, I want to chant a poem to express my ambition!"

"allow!"

Emperor Jingshun heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that the talk was over.

Feng Yibo took two steps first, and made a good pose.

He raised his head and said in a loud voice: "The capital is temporarily resting, worrying about Dongying."

This sentence is the opening statement.

He said that although he had no worries in the capital, he was always worried about Japanese pirates.

There were quite a few courtiers, many of whom were shaking their heads.

Without him, too straightforward.

"Call the bottle to greet the guests, wave the stag to sit and talk about soldiers."

This sentence says that even when drinking with friends, you don't forget to talk about military affairs.

Thinking of one day being able to lead troops to deal with Japanese pirates.

It's a little better than the previous sentence.

At least there is no flaw in the rhythm.

"Yunhu's toothpick is full, Xinghan's sword is horizontal."

This sentence has a good sense of image.

It was dark and the book was full of bookmarks.

Under the sky full of stars, he did not forget to touch the sword lying on the table.

This means that while studying hard, he has never slack off in the art of war and martial arts.

Although it is a bit exaggerated.

But "Wen Neng can lift the pen to secure the world, and Wu Neng can mount the horse to determine the universe."

Always the ultimate romance for a scholar!

The princes in the court only thought that this sentence was not bad.

Three sentences put together, barely qualified.

At least the ambition has been said almost.

But what they didn't expect was.

Next sentence.

Immediately raise the tone of the whole poem by several levels!
Up to Danbi, middle to princes, down to civil and military officials.

Even palace servants, guards, etc. who are proficient in literary and ink, or who do not know big characters.

All are moved by it!

Just because Feng Yibo chanted the last sentence in a deep voice!
"I don't want to be named Marquis, I only wish Haibo peace!"

This was originally a poem about Qi Jiguang's aspirations, which was slightly changed by Feng Yibo.

In this way, he expresses that he is in the capital and worries about the south and coast of the Yangtze River.

The determination to get rid of the pirates,
There is also the ambition of not seeking fame and fortune, but wishing the sea and the border to calm down.

The first three sentences are foreshadowing, and the last sentence touches the soul!
Heartbreaking!

Just one sentence can make people's hearts surge!

The princes of the Manchu Dynasty, civil and military officials, palace servants, and guards all cast strange glances.

There is admiration, shock, and shame in this gaze...

This is the charm of poetry.

Whether you can write poetry or not, you can hear whether a poem is good or bad!
If it's all feces, urine and fart, you won't be able to hear the poetry!
Like this poem.

As long as you have been influenced by the thought of being loyal to the emperor and serving the country.

You can hear the emotion in it.

Even just now he was thinking about the person who hurt him.

At this time, I can't help but feel ashamed!

Even look at yourself.

Is it because you are fascinated by the world of mortals and have forgotten your original intention of serving the country?

"What a 'I don't want to be named Marquis, I only wish Haibo's peace'!"

Emperor Jingshun was also touched by it, almost got up when he heard it.

Fortunately, he has been in a high position for a long time and has his own city.

Although his heart was surging, he only held the handles on both sides of the dragon chair tightly with both hands.

On the two dragon-shaped handles pinched, there are his Han stains.

He let out a long sigh of relief, as if his whole body had stood tall.

He exclaimed in admiration: "No wonder Jiangnan sang praises, saying that Feng Aiqing is comparable to Jiaxuan!"

"It turns out that not only is he able to lead troops to suppress the Japanese, but he is also as good at poetry as Jiaxuan!"

"The Holy One has won the prize!"

Emperor Jingshun's series of compliments made Feng Yibo a little ashamed.

He rarely does copywriting.

Today is not just recited on a whim.

Instead, they have been prepared.

He had to leave a poem in order to be able to live up to the reputation of "comparable to Jiaxuan".

Let people remember that he is a civil servant!

Otherwise, he would be confused as a military officer in the future, but there would be no reason to go.

At this time, he said modestly: "In fact, I don't have any poetic talent, what I have is just a heart to serve the country!"

"Feng Aiqing's ambition to serve the country is all in this poem!"

Emperor Jingshun nodded, then waved and whispered to the palace people around him.

The palace man walked up to Zhang Songyue and whispered a few words in his ear.

Zhang Songyue and Emperor Jing Shun looked at each other and nodded slightly.

After receiving the signal, Emperor Jingshun nodded to the palace staff again.

After a series of operations, the palace man immediately announced:

"The sage has a destiny! Feng Yuan, the editor of the Imperial Academy, was promoted to be the lecturer of the Imperial Academy, and the imperial envoys patrolled the Jiangnan Japanese pirates and trained soldiers!"

It turned out that Emperor Jingshun made a temporary decision.

It is a reward for upgrading the originally planned dispatched officials to one level and being compiled by the Hanlin Academy.

It was raised again.

He was directly promoted to two ranks and became a minister of the Imperial Academy of the sixth rank.

Feng Yibo quickly thanked him: "My minister, Feng Yuan, thanked the Holy Lord for his kindness. This trip will definitely live up to the entrustment of the Holy Lord, wipe out the pirates in the East China Sea, and restore the Qingming to the south of the Yangtze River!"

Emperor Jingshun hadn't gotten over his turmoil yet, he encouraged him when he heard the words:
"If this errand is done well, it will definitely be useful when I come back!"
