The spring is cold and cold, and the young are killed by the cold.

After the ancient festival, the northern land did not wait for the habitual recovery.The severe cold and capriciousness of the Little Ice Age are still sealing human activities in the northern regions.

But this does not include a certain port city.

In Tianjin, an emerging area where travelers have invested a lot of resources in development, it has initially possessed the characteristics of industrialization.There are more and more chimneys here, and the billowing smoke from them is endless all year round.

Complementing it are the indigenous people who have been forcibly changed their life trajectory.More and more industrial workers have joined the wave of industrialization, causing the pulse of the city to be restless and jumping restlessly throughout the year, completely losing the stable rhythm that the ancient agricultural society should have.

Tianjin's industrial zone is mainly located in the east of the old city and south of the Haihe River.Opposite to the noisy industrial zone on the north side of the river, there is another pulse in the Henan area.

There are contiguous barracks, horse farms, school grounds, artillery and firearms training grounds.

It's different from the clutter in the north.Every move in the barracks area has rules.Continuous gunfire, neat slogans and hooves, everything seems to have a rhythm, beating a strong rhythm.

The core of the barracks area is naturally the headquarters of the third division of the battalion.

Compared with other areas, the division headquarters, which has a large number of civilian and technical personnel, is somewhat quieter, like a valley in the wind and rain.

Now, in the core area of ​​the valley, in the battalion officer's office on the third floor, a work conversation is taking place.

Probably because the new year has just passed and he is still on vacation.Mr. Zhang Zhongqi, Master Zhang's face is full of messy stubble, his uniform collar is open, his legs are up on the top of the executive desk, he is half lying on the office chair, his hands are clinking and knocking on the lid of the teacup: "Oh, are you okay?" Looking for something."

The thin sunshine outside the window, through the window spirit painted with good paulownia paint, shone on the face of Ha Liu who seemed a little bit wronged: "That's what I said at the time, I didn't think about asking again, I forgot .”

"Hmm, you forgot, but the Intelligence Bureau didn't."

When Zhang Zhongqi said this, he picked up a piece of paper on the table with two fingers and shook it: "Hey, Mr. Ha, look for yourself."

Ha Liu, who was sitting upright on the chair, took a sneak peek at the general's expression, and found no sign of anger, then stretched out his hands and picked up the piece of paper, and glanced quickly: "Hey, so Said, this scholar is still a large and meticulous work, the weight is not light."

"What does weight have to do with you?"

Zhang Zhongqi glanced sideways angrily: "You are a leader of the army, so don't get involved in the specific work of the intelligence department."

"Yes!"

Seeing that the boss was upset, Ha Liu hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Follow the instruction!"

"Alas, there is still a lack of team spirit."

Zhang Zhongqi sighed: "Agents lurking behind enemy lines are always on guard and think carefully about everything. If you are not careful, someone will see your flaws, and you will lose your life."

"Will such a well-trained and excellent person make a fuss over a small matter and temporarily change the plan?"

Ha Liubei nodded with a smile: "It's the subordinate who is being abrupt."

For some reason, at this point, a strange smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Zhongqi's somewhat round face: "If you want to convince the public, you must be open-minded, and you can be a big brother if you can accommodate brothers."

Seeing her only audience nodding repeatedly, Zhang Zhongqi first raised her head to recall something.However, his mood quickly returned to normal.

Putting his legs back and getting up, he lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip of tea. Then Master Zhang said seriously: "We must be aware of the overall situation and trust our comrades. We are better than Daming. In the final analysis, it is the organization and coordination. All departments are not only now, In the future, only by working closely together can we help the commander-in-chief achieve great things as soon as possible."

Speaking of this, Mr. Zhang felt that the heat was almost ready, and finally stared at Ha Liu's eyes and told him: "You old Flying Tigers stand out, you have to have seniority and merit, and you have to make contributions. The future is limitless. There will be Opportunity to conquer the north and south, and leave a name in history."

"The more this is the case, the more you have to raise your own requirements so as not to fall behind."

Ha Liu was submissive, nodding repeatedly in agreement.

"Okay, what I said, I will experience it myself when I go back." At this point, today's round of work talk is over.Standing up and patting Ha Liu, who has become much more honest, on the shoulder, Mr. Zhang is obviously very excited today: "Now, call a few more people, and follow me to the pier to pick up the distinguished guests."

Not long after, the sound of rumbling horseshoes sounded.Master Zhang led a group of confidantes who had been summoned, took the lead, left the gate of the camp, and went straight to the direction of Haihe.

Halfway through, when passing by the headquarters of Tianjin Railway Station, there were already more than a dozen people waiting at the gate on horseback.

This team was led by none other than Cao Dashuai's business agent on the surface, and Yao Jianshe, the station manager of Tianjin Station behind his back.

When two groups of people meet, there is no second word, and they merge into one.Finally, at noon, the horse team arrived at the special pier by the Hai River.

Since the traversers started to develop locally, many public and private piers have appeared along the banks of the Haihe River for dozens of miles.

Among them, the one with the largest throughput and occupied area is undoubtedly the public wharf with steam equipment installed.Secondly, there are several passenger terminals dedicated to "Haoziying" outside the city.

Today, the horse team went to the military-only pier not far from the passenger terminal.

As the name suggests, military-only docks are mostly only used by military and police special systems.Of course, the most important reception work here is always for those who travel through time.

Today is no exception.

Facing the distinguished guests who were about to land, two of the so-called Big Three in the north greeted them in person, which showed grandeur.

When the two elders came to the pier, there were already many people here ahead of time.This includes quite a few traversers in Tianjin, as well as their teams.

This extremely rare scene of picking up the station made the participants inexplicably excited.

As a result, the military pier, which used to be considered deserted, became bustling.Soon, the attendants from various departments lined up and put on a warm welcome.

The so-called "Northern Trio" has long since become a synonym for the northern military and political system.I also want to know that the time-traveling forces have spread such a large stall in various parts of the north, and there are no less than hundreds of thousands of people directly under them. How could it be possible that three time-travelers are in charge.

In fact, over the past few years, even if we only talk about Beijing and Tianjin, the total number of travellers who act as experts and managers in various industries has already reached as many as 40 to [-].

The attendants who were able to go to the pier today belong to the core indigenous layer, so everyone is very excited. After all, to be able to stand here is to have crossed a certain hidden threshold.

For example, Ha Liu was in the opposite array and saw the Tianjin station agent Huo Gui just mentioned.

He extended his hand in a friendly greeting, and Ha Liu obediently led his horse back to an inconspicuous position in the back row of the team.

The reason why he stands here is not because Ha Liu doesn't like to show off, but because he has other targets to observe: not far from the Haoziying Wharf next door, there is a big ship, which has been fired and pressurized, and billowing black cigarette.

There was a long queue, and the passengers who boarded the ship along the steps were uniformly dressed in blue denim overalls and cotton short-brimmed hats.

These people are obviously not civilians who went south to work.When many people boarded the ship, they would have physical conflicts with the surrounding security personnel.Of course, this kind of behavior has no other benefits except for a meal of sticks. After being beaten, they will still be thrown into the hold.

Watching the familiar Taihang heroes being driven into the cabin like a donkey, even though Haliu has good eyesight, he couldn't find his elder brother among the crowd dressed in exactly the same way.

In the end, Ha Liu could only turn his head back to the direction of the sea. The crowd was already restless, and the boat had arrived.

Slowly stopping at the pier was an inland river boat that was emitting smoke.

This is common pick-up procedure.The big ships coming from afar will berth at the mouth of the Haihe River, and then the passengers will transfer to inland river boats to go to Tianjin.

Not long after, amidst polite applause, a tall and thin distinguished guest who was over forty years old and wearing a woolen overcoat was the first to come out of the cabin.

The latest interior minister of Great Yan State: Feng Jun.

As the first group of time-travelers, Feng Jun has huge influence in the system, is the core policy maker, and a person with real power in the time-travelers.

In the early days of crossing, this gentleman, as a great monk, created a smuggling system with Hangzhou Moyun Temple as the core.Afterwards, Feng Jun set up a framework for the entire time-traveling forces to absorb the population in Daming, and established an early education system.

Relying on his huge influence within the time-traveling crowd, Feng Jun has never left the central decision-making circle from the beginning to the end. After the "founding of the People's Republic of China", he was included in the two cabinets.

In the cabinet change two years ago, Feng Jun, who was transferred from the cabinet member and education minister to the interior minister, has once again been promoted in power.Next, after spending almost a year straightening out the internal affairs of the Great Yan Kingdom, Feng Jun finally started his own research journey.

After running back and forth in the south for almost a year, Feng Jun finally set off a few days ago and arrived at the last stop he had planned: the north.

He lowered his head and got out of the cabin. After seeing the "huge" pick-up team at the pier, Feng Jun's face, which looked fair, couldn't help turning black.

After a few steps down the board, Feng Jun shook hands with Yao Jianshe who came up, and said with a smile: "Old Yao, brothers, you are giving me eye drops, it's such a big show."

"Where."

Yao Jianshe smiled all over his face: "It's all spontaneous, spontaneous. We bumpkins in the north have never seen an official like you, Lao Feng. To be honest, brothers, they are indeed a little excited!"

"I don't pay attention to the situation in the north. Even the cabinet has alluded to it." Feng Jun couldn't help smiling when he heard the words: "Okay, okay, that's right, now I don't have any pressure."

While talking and joking, Mr. Feng Jun and Feng Ge shook the hands of the passers-by one by one, then boarded the carriage with Yao and Zhang, and drove to the camp.
