Chapter 217 Love Soldiers Like a Son, Zhu Youlang Seeking the Moon

If you don’t be a good person, you don’t know how to be a good person.

Zhu Youlang is now slowly forcing himself to learn more fields.

He may not necessarily have to be specialized, but he must have some understanding.

Only by being able to understand Zhu Youlang will say things everywhere and not be deceived.

What Zhu Youlang is most concerned about now is cotton clothing purchases.

The winter in Wuchang is very wet and cold, and it feels very uncomfortable to walk outdoors.

Zhu Youlang hopes that every soldier will have a set of cotton clothes so that he can easily survive this cold winter.

He estimated that the Qing army would not attack Wuchang in a short period of time. The battle between the two sides would be after the beginning of spring.

This left the Ming army with precious rest time.

Since the eastern expedition of Kuidong, the Ming army has been fighting.

Because they have always maintained a winning streak, siege and village have covered up many problems.

These problems are nothing in the case of victory and will not be highlighted.

But once you lose, it will explode and even backfire.

Zhu Youlang certainly cannot wait until a problem occurs before solving it, but must prepare for the future.

Discovering problems in advance is the best way to solve them.

This involves the psychological adjustment link.

The soldiers lived a military life in the military camp for a long time and were always nervous.

Zhu Youlang felt that he needed to guide him so that the soldiers could relax.

Psychological counseling is a method, but Zhu Youlang now has no professional talents. He can only put it aside for the time being.

Zhu Youlang felt that it was possible to set up a literary and artistic team, and the performance of the art team was to relax the soldiers.

This training will not take too long and will take effect quickly.

Best for the current situation.

Moreover, the literary and artistic team can also play a role in public opinion and perform some performances among the people.

In his spare time, the art team came to the bustling street market to conduct a series of publicity performances, and cooperated with the Emperor Ming Daily to let the Han people see the Emperor Ming's love for the people like his son and the tyranny of the Qing Dynasty.

There is no harm without comparison, and the people will definitely make the right choice.

Zhu Youlang came to Li Dingguo to discuss the matter, and Li Dingguo patted his chest and expressed his support.

In fact, Li Dingguo didn't know what the literary and artistic troupe was, but when he heard from the emperor that it could make the soldiers relax, he felt that he could give it a try.

Li Dingguo was very aware of the depression of the soldiers when he led his troops abroad all year round.

The generals' conditions were better, but the soldiers were in a miserable state.

If there is no way to resolve and vent, problems will indeed arise.

Li Dingguo's handling method was very similar to other generals, that is, to suppress it with strict military regulations.

But he also knew that it would be impossible to survive in the long run. Maybe it was okay for normal times, but whenever something happened, it was a big deal.

Yingxiao or even mutiny is not a joke.

Li Dingguo really wants to see the effects brought by this literary and artistic team.

Zhu Youlang and Li Dingguo had a heated discussion on the recruitment scope of the literary and artistic team members.

Zhu Youlang believed that the scope could be relaxed, and he could recruit both male and female soldiers.

The recruited soldiers belong to the army and live a military life with the soldiers.

However, Li Dingguo felt that female soldiers were inconvenient in the military camp.

After all, the army is a place for war, and even the fire soldiers are all men.

There is a difference between men and women, and it is easy to get gossip when we are together.

These soldiers are all bachelors and will not have any problems.

Zhu Youlang thought about it carefully and made sense.

In this era, the concept of men and women defending each other is still very popular.

It is not easy to reverse this concept in a short period of time.

Even in the original camp and Xiying, the wife, children, and the elderly would be organized into old camps separately to prevent soldiers and their families from meeting each other directly. What they are afraid of is that personal affairs interfere with the marching plan.

If you let it go, the consequences will be very serious.

Even in Peking Opera, men play female roles in the beginning.

But when Zhu Youlang thought that the female characters in the literary and artistic team were all dressed by men, he felt a little embarrassed.

You can only take it slowly to change people's inherent views and not rush to achieve success. After all, change requires a process.

"Have you heard that the army needs to recruit art soldiers."

"What does art soldiers mean?"

"It's just a performer. Do you understand the performer?"

"Ah, the performer. Isn't that an actor?"

"That's different. Art soldiers are recognized by the court."

"Does the art soldiers also live in the military camp?"

"Of course, literary and artistic soldiers are also soldiers. Have you ever seen soldiers who don't live in the military camp?"

"Will you live with the war soldiers or with the fire soldiers?"

"Everyone is not together, I'm a camp alone, called a literary team!"

"The name of the literary team is really weird."

"Hey, new things are always like this. Just wait until you get used to it."

"Since you are an opera singer, the treatment of this art soldier must not be good, right?"

"That's not the case. Although it's not as good as the war soldiers, the art soldiers can still have one or two taels of silver a month, which is not a small amount. And they have meat every meal, so they don't have to go to the battlefield to fight. It's so great."

"That's true. There must be many candidates for this art soldier."

"That's sure, there's such a good thing. Anyone who can sing two lines and two voices wants to try it. It's just a snatch."

"Is the young actor who sang Kunqu opera in the Su family popular? He has gone too. I heard that it is because he can change his family."

The actors are lowly people and belong to the lowest-ranking existence. They may earn a lot of money, but they are discriminated against by the world like prostitutes.

Their descendants cannot participate in the imperial examinations, and are always despised by others, and will never turn over for the rest of their lives.

Therefore, any actor who makes money wants to be able to leave his or her family.

No matter how much money they spend, they are willing. Because it is not only related to themselves, but also to their descendants.

This popular young actor who sang Kunqu opera in the Su family should belong to this type.

The court and His Majesty opened a door for them, so they naturally had to push it up.

Even if the literary and artistic team did not recruit them in the end, they would not regret it if they tried their best.

Once they succeed, they can clear away their lowly family and become good people. Their descendants will be able to study and take the imperial examinations, and their lives will have hope.

This was given to them by the Emperor Ming, and the Qing court could not give them.

Just for this, they unconditionally supported the Ming army and the Ming Dynasty.

"It's not easy to be recruited on his terms?"

"That's not necessarily the case. It turns out that the military review is very strict. Not only do you have to be examined, but also your parents and your ancestors! Even the eighteen generations of ancestors have been revealed to you!"

"Hiss! This is too scary."

"Aren't you afraid of Tartar spies getting involved? After all, this art soldier also has to stay in the military camp and spend time with the soldiers. If you spy on some important military information and go back to tell the Tartars, won't the Tartars attack in a targeted manner?"

"That's true, it's always right to seek stability."
