open sea

Chapter 1487

"London Notes" is Tang Xianzu's shoddy attempt. In this process, many dark methods are used.

Playing with the mind, it is difficult for anyone to play the cultural person who is familiar with the sage books, and Tang Xianzu is undoubtedly one of them.

It's just that he lacks experience.

Since he was a child, he knew that water can carry a boat and it can capsize it. As an adult, he knows how water can carry a boat and how to overturn it. He has learned countless knowledge about governance, but no book has ever told him: How to use the water of other people's house to overturn it. By someone else's boat.

This requires figuring out what power is - a cooperative game.

That is to say, people believe that following the emperor, king, vassal, and lord is beneficial to themselves and can be rewarded; on the contrary, if they are against the emperor, king, vassal, and lord, they are not good for themselves and will be punished.

Therefore, when people cooperate, the invisible and intangible power exists; on the contrary, if people are unwilling to cooperate, the invisible and intangible power disappears without a trace.

This is a very novel and interesting point of view for Tang Xianzu, and it is even more meaningful to him than "London Notes" itself.

Now his play of London Notes is aimed at deconstructing the loose power of the Tudor royal family in England after the defeat, and completely overthrowing the common people's cooperation with the Tudor royal family.

Because of this, the prefect of London was able to calm down when he saw the anxious general of Puzhou, Ying Ming. Not only could he persuade him to calm down, but he could also tell the general the real purpose of the war with confidence.

"The key to winning or losing a war is support, not fighting for the army. If there is no support from the Tudor barbarians, Drake will not be worried about the benefit of only one barbarian, and three or five farmers can be captured and killed."

Things in England went back to normal after Tang Xianzu said a few words.

The low-ranking military officers of the Ming army, represented by Ying Ming, were irrational and abnormal in overseas wars. They valued military conquest above all else, and believed that military victory could solve all problems.

This kind of disadvantage did not appear in the past, because in the East Asia where they operated, the enemies they encountered were the aborigines who rebelled in the form of tribes, Spain, which also aimed at military conquest, and France, which was deeply mired in the quagmire of religious wars.

None of their enemies recognized that the ground where the fighting was taking place was theirs.

As for the Alan Kingdom, all the tearing power was borne by Alan King Zhu Xiaoen, and had nothing to do with the Ming Army.

Only in England did the same policy not work, because this is a native country that has been at peace for a hundred years, and although the Queen's troops have surrendered, the people still have the desire to fight.

There is a desire, and Drake is born.

Even if Ying Ming can kill Drake, there will still be Alek, Yorek, and endless rebels will jump out.

The army is used for destruction, and the guns and cannons cannot be used to pave roads, build bridges, open mines, and kill people everywhere. The more you kill, the more rebels, so what?
In the end, there is still no one to work, no food can be grown, no gold and silver can be earned.

Tang Xianzu believed that they were not murderers. The purpose of coming to this overseas island was very clear. It was not to kill all the people on the island, but to create wealth and resources for the country.

To put it bluntly, he didn't believe that Chen Mu, who had fallen into Qian's eyes, sent him to London as a magistrate just to read some battle reports.

But Yingming didn't understand these principles, and he thought that the prefect in London might be out of his mind.

This man handled the government affairs well. The broken London was quickly repaired. Land surveying, registration of people, and distribution of land were all in order. He also recruited thousands of students from all over the Chinese language school.

The only thing is, I really like watching movies.

Ying Ming had never seen anyone who was obsessed with drama like Tang Xianzu. He heard that the last such person was Tan Lun, but he had never heard that Tan Lun was with the theater troupe all day long.

Tang Xianzu was lucky, not only did he hang out with the theater troupe all day long, but he also kept asking for people from him.

Liu Zhi, Wei Jinzhong, Bai Lier, and several military musicians were all sent by Tang Xianzu, but he was unwilling to lose his temper with the magistrate because of such a trivial matter.

As a result, even Wei Jinzhong now has a special love for drama, and he shouts lines every day when he returns to the barracks, which is annoying.

Yingming is really not interested in drama, and singing is okay, but the drama here is different from singing.

In comparison, it is more like the sacrificial offerings and street juggling in ancient times.

Or simply put a few of them on the sacrificial altar, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

This is the standard mentality of a conqueror, and he looks down on everything about the conquered from the bottom of his heart.

This is not the same as the colonists. Compared with the Spanish Portuguese colonists earlier at the same time, it should be clear that their status is much higher than that of Pizarro and Yermak. If the colonists are in the same camp, other people’s power, The identity can only be a small captain under Ying Ming's hands.

The colonists couldn't wait to find something, and if they found something, they could pick it up or grab it, and put it in their bags.

Tang Xianzu's kind is more like a missionary's mentality, all he wants is to export ideology, and the rest of his energy must be spent on research.

Ying Ming is different, wealth, he doesn't need wealth, because what the whole of England can offer and attract him has already become his spoils of war when Westminster Abbey was captured.

What good was wealth now that England couldn't get what he wanted?

Curiosity?Ying Ming also has no thirst for knowledge, and apart from his feats of conquest, he has no motivation at all.

Therefore, he just took a look at the performance outside the city when he passed by before, and he has no interest in it since then.

During the rehearsal, Tang Xianzu asked Ying Ming to come over.

Tang Xianzu said that he must be allowed to pass, which will help the battle situation.

Ying Ming felt very uncomfortable.

He really felt that - the magistrate would not be able to see other people's preferences, and it was not enough to refuse once.

Ying Ming, who was riding the horse to Hampton Court Palace, held his breath. He felt that he really needed to pick a time to have a good talk with Tang Xianzu.

If you like to go to the theater, you go to the theater. As long as the government affairs are settled and you are the prefect of London, no one in England can stop you from going to the theater.

But why do you have to drag me to the theater? Yingming likes to fight, murder and set fire, but then I didn't go out and put you under my ribs to ride a horse and charge, right?
Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to yourself.

He now felt that he was the one who charged and pinched him in the ribs.

The Anmin Theater at Hampton Court Palace does look like that, but the performances on the stage are hard to attract him-he cannot understand the language. Tang Xianzu said that these plays are performed for ordinary people, so they need to be performed in English for the time being. The general can only guess by looking at the picture.

So the performance on the stage is not even as interesting as the pears on the fruit plate.

It wasn't until the actors Bai Lier and sisters were killed and the nobles threw their bodies into the well that he finally raised his eyebrows and began to watch seriously.

There was silence until the Ming soldier played by Wei Jinzhong appeared, and the performance was suddenly stopped by General Ying who stood up.

Ying Ming pointed to Wei Jinzhong and said, "Wei Sier, come down, Magistrate Tang, change an actor."

After all, Wei Jinzhong listened to Yingming with a confused face and said, "Go back to the camp and choose a bannerman who is tall, horsey, and handsome. Come here and let the magistrate Tang pick it, pick whatever you want."

　Good morning!
