The second day.
The fundraising meeting held by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, without any surprise, made the front page of Datang Daily. Yesterday, Li Yu, as a gold medal reporter in the editorial department of Datang Daily, participated in the fundraising meeting. She knows better than anyone else what happened at the fund-raising meeting, so today's headline article in Datang Daily was undoubtedly written by Li Yu!
The title of this article is - "The Cutest Person"!
There is a very touching passage in it, which reads:
"When the country is in trouble, with a call, countless farmers who are busy in the fields put down their hoes, sons say goodbye to their fathers, husbands say goodbye to their wives, fathers leave their children, resolutely put on their simple armors, and carry them without using them for a long time. There is no rust in the Mo Dao, so you get on your horse and embark on a journey where life or death is uncertain! They sacrifice their lives to go to the national disaster and regard death as a sudden return. They are the most lovable people;
The country was in trouble, and with a call, countless businessmen who were regarded by the world as profit-seeking and unscrupulous merchants came from all directions and gathered together to donate generously to raise military supplies for the country. In just one day, 428,500 military supplies were raised! On weekdays, they do not eat the royal salary and are looked down upon by the world. But at critical times, they sacrifice their lives for justice and share the country's worries. They are also the most lovable people... "
This article was not written by Li Yu specifically for the fund-raising meeting, but she combined what she saw, heard, and felt into this article based on a major event happening in Datang today!
A few days ago, Li Er issued an edict to select 150,000 elite government soldiers from more than 300 states in the Tang Dynasty and send them to Chang'an for training. In two months, these 150,000 elite local government soldiers will be Together with the 300,000 Chang'an twelve guards and horses, they marched north to fight Jie Li for a showdown!
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty served in the army during wartime and farmed in peacetime. Li Er's order made countless young farmers working in the fields in the Central Plains put down the hoes on their shoulders without hesitation, and picked up the hoes. The Mo Dao used in the battlefield went to Zhechong Prefecture in each state to participate in the selection of the Northern Expedition Army!
Some of them are sons, some are husbands, and some have just become fathers. They could have enjoyed family happiness at home with their parents, wives, and children, but at this time the country is in trouble, and they understand that they The responsibility on my shoulders, I understand that since I am a soldier of the Tang Dynasty, I must protect my family and the country, and treat death as home!
This is the Tang Dynasty soldier!
As the only reporter in the editorial department of "Datang Daily" who has won the "true biography" of Li Zexuan, Li Yu understands that the most valuable news is close to life. For this reason, she only spends a small part of her time every day. In the editorial department of "Datang Daily", she spends most of the rest of her time running around outside. In professional terms, she is called "collecting style"!
The news she writes is all based on her personal experience and what she saw with her own eyes. For this reason, she once sneaked into a black mine in a certain county alone, and also secretly visited a corrupt official's mansion. In recent days, Li Yu, who has been collecting news everywhere, , she has seen too many partings, from the partings between soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and their relatives, these scenes moved her all the time!
At noon yesterday, Li Yu received a letter, a letter from Izumo Village in Yuezhou. Izumo Village was the place where Li Yu and her adoptive father and mother fled. Li Yu spent her childhood in Izumo Village. However, this letter was written by an aunt who was very familiar to Li Yu in Izumo Village - Aunt Qiaoyun. The general content of the letter is that Aunt Qiaoyun's husband has been selected by Yuezhou Zhechong Mansion and will be here soon. He will go to Chang'an to participate in the court training, and in a few days he will go to the grassland battlefield!
Li Yu left Izuyun Village before, came to Chang'an alone, and finally settled in Lantian County. She once wrote a letter back to Izuyun Village to report to her familiar villagers that she was safe. Naturally, Aunt Qiaoyun also knew that Li Yu was in Chang'an. Now that she has settled down and has a place to live, the purpose of writing this letter is to hope that Li Yu can help take care of her husband within her ability!
After all, Yuezhou is too far away from Chang'an City. With an acquaintance like Li Yu taking care of her in Chang'an, Aunt Qiaoyun of Izuyun Village will feel at ease!
But when Li Yu read the contents of the letter, he felt that the letter was heavy!
In her impression, Izumo Village has always been secluded from the outside world, and people in the village rarely have contact with the outside world. But even so, an edict from Li Er actually made the young and strong men of Izumo Village resolutely leave. The village embarked on the road of no return from selection to military service to war!
Even a paradise like Izumo Village is like this. You can imagine how crazy the more than 300 states and counties in the entire Tang Dynasty were at this time. Countless soldiers who had been on the battlefield rushed to the local Zhechong Prefecture. In the camp, everyone is proud to be selected to join the army, and no one is greedy for life and afraid of death!
This is not only a brave and fearless soldier of the Tang Dynasty, but also the cutest person in this "martial" era!
The whole country is preparing for war, this is the real nationwide preparation for war!
In less than half a month, the most elite 150,000 soldiers in the Central Plains will join forces in Chang'an. After training, they will gather together with 300,000 Chang'an twelve guards and horses. The 450,000 troops will march on the grassland. Fight to the death with the most powerful enemy of the Tang Dynasty - the Eastern Turks!
Coupled with the scenes at the fund-raising meeting yesterday afternoon, Li Yu saw countless businessmen who were despised by the world without hesitation donating huge sums of money to raise military supplies for the court. Li Yu moved to help those who sacrificed their lives to fight for the national calamity. The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty wrote a praising article for these merchants of the Tang Dynasty who generously donated money in times of national crisis, praising the heroic heroes of this era and praising the most lovable people of this era!
The art of writing lies in emotion. An excellent article is not because it has many beautiful and gorgeous words, but whether the feelings it conveys are sincere!
This article written by Li Yu is written in vernacular, without a single obscure sentence, but every sentence is true. Naturally, it easily aroused the resonance of readers. Countless people read the headline article in "Datang Daily" , all looked excited, enthusiastic, and exclaimed:
"Good! Great article!"
"Okay! These are our imperial soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. They sacrificed their lives to fight for the country's calamity. They looked at death as if they were home!"
"Alas! I also want to do something for the imperial court, but it's a pity that I missed yesterday's fund-raising meeting!"
"Four hundred and twenty-eight thousand five hundred thousand guan! It's unimaginable! I heard that there were more than 700 businessmen who participated in the fund-raising meeting yesterday. I didn't expect that they could raise 428,500 guan for the military. It's really incredible. It’s unimaginable!”
"Yes! We usually say that businessmen value profits over righteousness, but we didn't expect that they would be so willing to contribute to the court at critical times. It's really impressive~!"
"Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce! In the end, it was the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce founded by Marquis Yong'an that led the merchants of the Tang Dynasty to the right path!"
"From now on, my view of merchants has changed! As long as I need something from the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce, I will definitely buy it!"
"Me too! Me too!"
"The cutest people! The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and the merchants of the Tang Dynasty who donated generously yesterday, they are well-deserved for this title!"
"That's right! That's right!"
Cities, villages, restaurants, tea shops, streets and alleys, almost everywhere since early in the morning, people are talking about today's headline article in "Datang Daily". The people of the Tang Dynasty are martial arts, and the blood in the bones of the people of the Tang Dynasty is hot. Li Yu This article full of true feelings stirred up countless people and instantly made them excited!
The patriotic enthusiasm of the people of the Tang Dynasty was unprecedentedly high at this time! The entire country is about to unite as one to face the Turks, a powerful enemy!
Perhaps this was a result that Li Er, and even Li Yu himself, had not expected!
