Start: Datang Wanli a lonely city

Chapter 963 Leaving and Arrangements

Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another half month passed, and we came to March 61, 3.

There are only twenty days left before the last deadline for completing the two side missions in the Demonic City and the area outside the customs.

Regarding the tasks for the second phase of the system, there is still no movement at this moment.

Therefore, Hu Biao and others can basically be certain that there is no second stage in this system mission; the grandson of the system has deceived them again.

However, facing the urgent side mission, they no longer care about this.

Early in the morning that day, the people who had come over to take advantage of the opportunity to have breakfast and meet for a daily meeting had just sat down at the dining table in Deyuelou.

Then I heard Hu Biao ask Lang Qing and Shi Shi:

"How long will it take to make the hand-cranked Gatling heavy machine gun, range finder, and other small equipment?"

After staying up all night again, Lang Qing and Shi Shi were obviously very hungry; but after hearing the above questions and facing the sumptuous breakfast placed in front of them, they instantly lost their appetite.

The two looked at each other, and both could see a rather helpless look in each other's eyes.

Say it! Due to limited time, they planned to modify a total of three armored warships on the Yadan Island side.

Regardless of the displacement of these three armored fleets, the smallest is more than 1400 tons and the largest is 1600 tons. When all are added together, the total tonnage of this Xuange camp fleet is not 5000 tons.

It is not as good as the Beiyang Fleet, including several main ships.

But God knows how much effort the two of them put into transforming these three battleships.

Manpower and lack of skilled construction personnel are just one aspect of the entire work that is not worth mentioning.

The biggest difficulty was that the two of them had to modify various accessories before they could meet the requirements on the design drawings.

It's not something that Old Henry can just contact and buy for use.

In short, when the two of them faced the rest of the team, they always received various urgings.

It's not just whether the steam boiler is ready, it's still waiting to be installed on Yadan Island; it's about other accessories, are they ready now?

So much so that whenever the two of them heard this urging sound, their heads would hurt and they would feel some physical discomfort.

Fortunately, this busyness seems to be coming to an end.

Among the three armored warships, two of them have been basically renovated; they even conducted a period of trial sea trials and various maritime training on some routes near Yadan Island away from merchant ships.

The remaining one was described according to the telegram sent back by Wu Zu and others.

In another three or four days, the relevant transformation will be almost completed.

The difference is good, because the armor, boilers, transmission systems, torpedoes, etc. are basically installed on the three warships.

However, there are also many small equipment such as heavy machine guns and rangefinders, which are still waiting to be developed and manufactured by Lang Qing and Cross. They will then be sent over and installed on the ship.

And even though these things are not big even if they are not installed, they are still very crucial to the overall combat effectiveness.

After thinking about the time, Lang Qing gave an answer: "Two days, no more than two and a half days at most, everything can be completed."

After hearing this sentence, Hu Biao gave an unexpected but reasonable statement to everyone at the table:

"After staying for three more days, on the morning of the fourth day everyone got on the ship carrying supplies and headed to Yadan Island. After a little tidying up, they went out to sea to fight the foreign devils.

During these three days, everyone in the Magic City was responsible for the things they were responsible for.

There are also some follow-up people in charge, how to develop, and how to control it as much as possible. All arrangements should be made clearly before leaving~"

With such a sentence, the four of them, including the concubine, Lang Qing, Xiao Bai Lian, and Yun Qing, instinctively headed towards the window.

Because they knew that they were about to leave this city where the four of them had stayed for half a year and left some very special and beautiful memories.

And the next time we come here, if the mission background is the Sino-Japanese War of Sino-Japanese War as they guessed, then it will be 33 years later.

I hope that things will not change and all their efforts and arrangements will disappear by then, leaving them with something left.

For a moment, under the turbulent thoughts in their hearts, these four people looked a little crazy.

Hu Biao didn't care about this. After quickly finishing breakfast for five people, he walked to a room on the top floor and passed the radio transmitter.

After a lot of trouble, I finally contacted the two groups of people on Yadan Island and outside the customs; I informed them of the decision of the Magic City...

At the same time, on the 8th.

Under the slow reaction of the Daqing imperial court, two things happened.

First, after receiving an urgent request for help from Shengjing City for more than two months; when the weather outside the pass had begun to warm up rapidly, the Daqing court finally sent troops to attack Tianshuigouzi.

After taking my wife with me, I fled to Chengde Mountain Resort in Rehe.

Even if the Yinfa coalition retreated, they did not return to the capital. In the original history, they hung here directly under the orders of Emperor Xianfeng more than five months later.

With Guarjia Shengbao, the Minister of War, as the commander-in-chief, he led 1200 Eight Banners soldiers and 3000 Green Camp soldiers, a total of 4200 soldiers and horses, out of Shanhaiguan.

Considering that in the battle a few months ago, 1500 elite Eight Banners troops outside the Pass were defeated by the rogues in Tianshuigouzi under a sneak attack.

Although Shengbao had an overwhelming military advantage, he was actually quite cautious when marching and camping every day.

In addition, 700 troops and horses under General Jilin and 00 troops and horses under General Hei*jiang, a total of 1300 cavalry also set out from Changchun on this day.

Although there were not many of these people, their actual combat effectiveness was not much slower than that of Shengbao's more than 4000 people, and they were even stronger.

The main reason is that among these 1500 people, there are also 100 Sauron soldiers.

The so-called Sauron soldiers refer to members of the Ewenki, Daur, Oroqen and other tribes who live in the bitter cold dense forests outside the pass.

Under difficult living conditions such as unimaginable cold, numerous ferocious beasts, and lack of medical treatment, they developed a strong character that disregarded life and death in battle.

It has a strong feeling like that of the Tatar soldiers who just emerged in the next year.

Throughout Daqing's reign, the Sauron soldiers were considered the ceiling of the Qing army's combat effectiveness, and participated in almost all their large-scale and key wars.

However, under Daqing's crazy deployment, the Ewenki, Daur, Oroqen and other departments suffered constant battle losses, and the number of qualified soldiers became less and less.

Now these 100 people are the greatest strength they can mobilize, and it is also their last glory.

After mobilizing and dispatching so many soldiers and horses, the Daqing side was full of confidence in winning this battle against Tianshui Gouzi.

Correspondingly, Yang Dongli, the team's second leader, who is now in charge outside the customs, is facing tremendous pressure.

It had been many nights and sleepless nights of staying up under the oil lamp to formulate battle plans.

Secondly, the Daqing court faced the threat of Maozi's continuous penetration outside the pass, but there were not many people to guard such a large area of ​​land.

Finally, we accepted the suggestions suggested by Heilongjiang General Tepuqin and lifted the ban on foreign countries today.

From then on, the ban was opened to reclamation, and immigrants were encouraged to settle in the border areas to revitalize the economy outside the customs.

At this point, a large number of people in the northern region, whose lives were really no longer able to survive, took their few belongings and their families and began to go out to cultivate the fertile land outside the customs.

The historical journey to Guandong has officially begun.

However, compared with the original history, now there is a force called Tianshuigouzi outside the pass, and it is destined to become different...

******

Time: Three days later, around five-thirty in the evening.

Location: Magic City, in a warehouse on the edge of the Huangpu River.

The second-in-command who was standing in front of him, Lang Qing, spoke with authority.

That is, the dry old man Zhang Fuhai who was captured by Lao Hei after he came out of the tunnel when he went to the Old Summer Palace to contact Hu Biao and others.

In a very cautious tone, he said softly: "Sir, all the blueprints, equipment, machinery, etc. have been loaded on the ship."

What makes Zhang Fuhai so cautious is not that Lang Qing is hard to talk to. In the eyes of Zhang Fuhai and other natives, this man who always spoke in a Beijing-style manner and addressed himself basically as "you, you" was actually very talkative.

The key reason is that Lang Qing is very strange at this moment.

He looked at the empty warehouse and said nothing. He stood here like a wooden man for more than an hour.

In this process, there is indescribable loneliness and nostalgia in the eyes.

In fact, Lang Qinghui's behavior was all because of the reluctance in his heart.

In the past six months, it can be said that it was the most stressful and hardest working time for him among so many tasks.

Staying up late and working overtime for a long time caused his hair to fall out severely and he lost a total of twenty kilograms.

In order to provide energy for the 'broken smart chip' in his head, he swore a poisonous oath because he ate too much beef jerky:

He, Langqing, would starve to death and be consumed by the chip. After this mission, he would never eat beef jerky again in his life.

But then again, in such a period of half a month, the difficulties of each piece of machinery and equipment were overcome and finally produced.

That huge sense of accomplishment is simply hard to describe in words.

Anyway, in the heart of this single guy, he thinks this feels much better than dating a girlfriend.

Only this morning, after the last dozen or so 20 mm caliber hand-operated Gatling heavy machine guns, which were considered special versions, were completed, all the work in the Magic City was completed.

Then, together with all the equipment here, they began to be loaded onto the ship one by one.

They will set off together tomorrow and prepare to transport them to the Duck Egg Island; they will be used to set up a repair shop to be responsible for the maintenance and repair of the fleet.

So I recalled the sleepless nights I had experienced in the past half year.

There is also the upset when encountering a difficult problem, the ecstasy after overcoming the difficulty, and after Lang Qing's mood rose, he has been standing until now.

It wasn't until he heard the report from Zhang Fuhai's mouth that Lang Qing reacted.

He said: "Okay, I understand. If you still have something to do, go ahead and get busy. I'll stay here for a while."

Faced with such a statement, Zhang Fuhai could only say goodbye and leave.

Because he was the person in charge of arranging for the future Xuange Camp fleet to stay in the Magic City before everyone left.

As for the imperial concubine's first-generation dog licker, although Old Henry was responsible for the management of Deyue Tower, he was just a crook after all and could only be regarded as Zhang Fuhai's deputy.

When Hu Biao and the others are leaving tomorrow, everyone has too many things to hand over to him.

So after taking care of Lang Qing's place, he hurried towards the 'Sanjiang Restaurant' in Modu County.

After waiting there, all the big guys of the Qing gang arrived, except for the big boss of the imperial concubine, who few people knew the specific identity of, and the ordinary gang members were just like dragons but never saw their tail.

At the wine table, Yun Qing said solemnly to Mr. Pan and others:

"Everyone, Ms. Anne and the rest of us have some more important things to do, so we have to leave the Magic City for a while.

During the period of their departure, Zhang Fuhai was solely responsible for everything that happened in their hall.

He has been accepted as a disciple by Ms. Anne, and he is a "lai" generation like me; he can make decisions no matter what. "

After Yun Qing finished his introduction, Zhang Fuhai stood up with a wine glass in his hand and said: "From now on, I will ask all the bosses to take care of me.

In order to thank the bosses and brothers in the gang for their care, we are willing to use half of the monthly profits from the moon building, bicycle factory and other industries in the future, up to 15%. "

After hearing such a statement, everyone in the Qing Gang, including Boss Pan, burst into laughter.

Because with the current scale of Deyuelou, half of the molecules represent a large sum of money every month.

Not to mention the bicycle factory, which produced those weird two-wheeled bicycles that were highly sought after by the foreign devils in the concession as soon as they were launched.

They just bought it themselves and forgot about it. It is said that they also want to buy it and sell it in various Western countries.

Good guy! I have always heard that Daqing was in the hands of these foreign devils and bought various "industrial products" such as foreign guns, foreign cannons, and foreign cloth. When did Daqing also have "industrial products" that could be sold to the West?

What's even more wonderful is that in the next two years alone, the franchise rights in various places will be sold for more than 5 taels of silver.

In short, this bicycle factory is a big money tree.

Immediately, all the Qing gang bosses patted their chests and promised that Ms. Anne and the others could leave with peace of mind, and that they would help take care of everything in the Magic City.

No matter who it is, even foreign devils who dare to cause trouble will be killed.

Upon seeing this, Yun Qing and Zhang Fuhai looked at each other and finally breathed a sigh of relief secretly in their hearts.

In fact, the various purchasing and information channels here in the Magic City are too important; even if a large amount of money is given to Qing Bang every month for this, it is still worthwhile.

As for what they should do if they leave for a little longer and other members of the Qing Gang start to take a peek at these properties?

Let's fight, whether it's from outside the customs or by mobilizing some gunners from the fleet, just beat them and subdue them...

And why didn’t the imperial concubine come to Sanjiang Restaurant to socialize? No time.

Just when she was about to leave, the girl wandered around the new Deyue Tower, which she had put a lot of effort into and was finally completed.

Ballrooms, theaters, cinemas, Chinese and Western restaurants, casinos, luxury sales centers, guest rooms, bowling, billiards.

Except for the lack of duck fillet and abalone merchants, it can be said that almost all entertainment activities available in these days can be found here.

It is definitely the largest and best gold-selling cave in the entire Demon City, and even in the entire Eastern region.

While walking, whether it was a white-skinned man or woman in a formal dress or a young businessman in silk and satin, they would greet the imperial concubine politely.

You can also see your careless cousin in the dance hall, making a bunch of white-skinned old SPs fly into the air; I'm afraid that soon, there will be another incident where two gentlemen throw white gloves at each other and then duel. Appear.

After completing the final circle, the imperial concubine clearly felt reluctant to leave.

Suddenly, Hu Biao's voice came from behind:

"Why don't you and the God of Wealth stay here? I'll take Xiao Bai Lian, Lang Qing, Yun Qing, and Shi Shi to join the fleet and complete the side mission."

"Forget it, let's go together tomorrow morning, you are a bitch and want to abandon me again, don't you?"

After hearing this, the imperial concubine glared at Hu Biao angrily.

In fact, the above is just the excuse of the imperial concubine. The real reason is that she knows that regardless of the paper data of the three armored battleships, it is very good, but without actual testing, it is difficult to say anything.

For this reason, when the moment of danger really comes, she is prepared to do the same thing as when she caused trouble in Li Jiapo in the modern dimension.

Use space baggage, load it with a baggage of high explosives, and swim to blow up the ship.

Seeing the imperial concubine's resolute attitude, Hu Biao did not continue to insist. Instead, after taking a look at her dress, he shouted:

"Go put on a cheongsam, don't forget your socks, and then go shopping together; but wear a disguise mask on your face, don't make those licking dogs of yours despair.

Before leaving, let’s take a good look at the night view of the Magic City in 61~”

Regarding this statement, the imperial concubine did not reject it, and even looked forward to it.

Soon after, many people who were still lingering on the streets of the magic city at night could see a man with a beautiful face walking on the road with a tall woman.

The next thought in my mind was: Damn it! Those girls are not very good looking, but they can really twist~

After walking around for a few streets, Hu Biao thought of something and asked, "That's right! That pretty boy went out before dark. What on earth was he doing?"

"Didn't you notice that none of the decent Yangma people came tonight? They were all invited by the pretty boys, and they had a farewell ceremony somewhere."

The imperial concubine replied casually.

I thought of the surprising number of ladies, ladies, and young ladies who usually have ambiguous looks with the pretty boy but did not show up tonight.

An exclamation came out of Hu Biao's mouth: "Good guy! I don't want to take this kid's waist anymore..."

　PS: It’s my family’s birthday and there are a lot of guests here, so I’ll post a chapter first. I can’t guarantee whether there will be another chapter tonight, because I don’t know if it will be dumped.
