Begging in late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 391
The most commendable thing about the Roman Empire is the Roman road extending in all directions, relying on all the roads leading to Rome, the empire used more than 20 legions and more than [-] people to rule the huge Europe, but it is different from what many people imagined. Rome The roads of the empire were not built by the slaves, but by the Roman legion. Wherever the legion went, the road was built.

Song Qingshu has also learned this point comprehensively. When Yinghuo invaded four years ago, there were only a few mountain roads as main roads for transportation. A division of 3000 people was transferred from Xinxian County to Qianshan, and they had to walk all the way. One month, now, the original mountain roads can be completely replaced with asphalt roads, the asphalt dug from the coal mines in Shanxi and the crushed stones along the Yangtze River are fried together, and then the roads are leveled with traditional rammed earth roads, so that The roads built are much stronger than the loess roads of the past, and there are no trucks these days, so they can be used for at least 30 to [-] years.

With a convenient passage, you can start from Anqing to Mantou Village in the middle of Yinghuo Mountain, and you will arrive there in a few hours. You start from the Marshal's Mansion early in the morning. The stars, however, are chattering like they've been slapped with chicken blood.

"Hey, Yu'er, that's amazing. The commander-in-chief is so angry for you. I saw him kneeling until midnight with my own eyes, my nephew and young master."

"No, this one was fined to walk with the car, but having said that, the young nephew is also quite handsome, Yu'er, why don't you follow? That's right, if you follow him, you will be a concubine at most, but now you are a big Handsome goddaughter, at least she will be a real wife when she gets married!"

"Tsk tsk, Yu'er, you've come a long way, hey, I knew why I was so fierce with him! Maybe my nephew and master went to my room last night!"

Hearing the envy, jealousy and regret of the sisters, Yu'er seemed a little lost, and said in a daze: "Maybe the commander-in-chief is just angry that the nephew and young master are not good enough, so he just said it casually, and it can't be taken seriously!"

"Hey, I gave you all the commander's guns, so it's not true?" Qiaoyan nimbly snatched the heavy revolver from Yu'er's arms, and exaggeratedly exclaimed.

"Tsk tsk, what the commander uses is different, the handles are all made of ivory!"

"Hey, Qiaoyan, don't make trouble, give it back to me, this thing is not a joke!"

Yu'er snatched the revolver back in a panic, causing a group of girls to laugh again, especially Qiaoyan, who was smiling and took advantage of Yu'er's unpreparedness to grab Yu'er's arms fiercely. Amidst the son's exclamation, he said triumphantly.

"I'll just say, if you don't admit it, Yu'er, you are not interesting!"

"What! It's obviously..."

…………

There was endless chatter in the car, and he was being punished accordingly. Li Dingguo, who was walking with the car, had a handsome crying face and drooped his head sadly. There were thirteen members of the Qinhuai Orchestra. After playing the one that Song Qingshu valued the most, he sighed as he walked.

"Master, you said the commander-in-chief is the same, isn't he just a whore who sells singing? He didn't get it, so why should he punish you like this?"

The commander was tired, and the younger brother was not spared. The infantry of a battalion next to the ambulance were all Li Dingguo's second division. But without even thinking about it, he slapped him on the forehead.

"Fart, it's my sister in the car, if you dare to say something nonsense, you bastard, I will castrate you!"

"Yes, yes, the teacher's teaching is timely!"

The flattery was slapped on the horse's leg, Zhu Laoliu, who had a broad face and round waist, hurriedly looked like a primary school student, and agreed with a sad face. The sixth child muttered: "Yingzuo! The teacher is already upset when he is punished. If you say that again, don't you mean to make him feel uncomfortable? It's not as beautiful as Miss Kua Yuer. This handsome man has vision, and the teacher is fine if he is punished." No loss!"

"Ha, you're still Jiling, Master, my old Zhu said the wrong thing, our Miss Yu'er is so beautiful, she is as beautiful as Zhang Xiaohong who entertained me on the Qinhuai River last time! You are not wronged by the punishment! !"

Hearing that Zhu Laoliu was excited and ran to Li Dingguo's side to flatter him again, with a slap, Chen Xiaojing slapped his face sadly, his immediate boss was hopeless!

But at this time, Li Dingguo, whose cheeks were twitching and walking forward, suddenly got excited, ran to the side of the road, put his ears on the asphalt road, and immediately turned his head and pointed at Zhu Laoliu.

"Lao Liu, take your brothers and move on, Xiaojing, take your guards and follow me!"

With a yell, as expected they came from that place in Shanxi, eleven of them climbed up the mountain in a blink of an eye, making Zhu Laoliu helplessly rubbing his cheeks again.

"Did I say something wrong again?"

…………

"Be good!"

Lying on the mountain ridge, biting a grass stalk in his mouth, Li Dingguo's thick eyebrows and big eyes stared round, next to the new road they were advancing on, and on the old road at the other end of the mountain ridge, countless cavalrymen carried large banners Running at a trot, on the dry river valley road, a puff of smoke and dust was transpiring, with no head in front and tail behind.

"It's the first cavalry division! Handsome Hong!"

"Master, it seems that there are more than that. There are also our division. That team is from the first division of Qihuo and the fourth division. I am afraid that there are no fewer than five or six thousand cavalry. There seems to be infantry from Miao Mei's division behind. , tell me, what does handsome Hong want to do?"

Hearing Chen Xiaojing's question in doubt, Li Dingguo frowned, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"They also go to Mantou Mountain!"

"I've heard that Lao Huihui and Ge Liyan are sneaking around. I said why uncle suddenly brought the Qinhuai Orchestra to Anqing for a tour. It's all a cover! It seems that I didn't kneel for a long time last night. Injustice, if it's me, I'll be beaten like hell!"

"Master, what are you talking about!"

The spirited Li Dingguo muttered nervously, but did not answer, but slapped Chen Xiaojing on the shoulder.

"Sperm! Don't do anything now, just stay here and keep an eye on Hongshuai's team. Once Hongshuai makes any moves, come and report to me immediately!"

"Yes, sir!"

It's too hard to guess what's at stake, Chen Xiaojing gave a military salute depressed.

Departure at [-]:[-] in the morning and arrive at [-]:[-] noon. Ge Liyan's Gezuo Second Division has already made preparations to welcome them. They lined up under the cottage to welcome them. The division commander He Yilong and the division assistant Lin Chengcheng are also respectful. Stay ahead.

Still dressed in the handsome uniform of the warlord of the Republic of China, Song Qingshu rode a horse and walked in the front, and swayed slowly to the front of the team, but he didn't have the same level as before, Ge Liyan and Lin Chenggong Quickly and respectfully bowed deeply: "Meet the commander-in-chief!"

"Meet the Master!"

Afterwards, thousands of soldiers also bowed neatly, but Song Qingshu who heard it hummed: "Where is the old Huihui?"

His eyes were obviously flickering, and He Yilong looked at Song Qingshu with cross-eyed unnaturally and clasped his fists and replied: "Back to Commander, Mr. Ma still has something to do at the division, and he may not be able to make it for lunch. arrive!"

"Oh? Ma Shishuai is really loyal to his duty!"

Unable to hear a word of joy or anger, Song Qingshu got off the horse straight away, and waved his hand presumptuously: "Enter the village!"

Mantou village was originally an important branch of Qihuang 48 villages, but with the entry of Song Qingshu, the long-lost peace was brought, and there was no need for the villages to fight each other. They settled down in places suitable for farming and life, such as gentle slope valleys, and the huge stockade is now completely used for military purposes.

The nearby asphalt road was built by Ge Zuo Ershi. The camp on the mountain is also quite complete. The playground, dormitory, and cafeteria have inherited Song Qingshu’s westernized architectural style and are all made of reinforced Roman cement and bricks. The two- and three-story small building, red bricks and green tiles, looks quite energetic.

"Marshal, the general has prepared lunch at the division headquarters, please show your respect to the ladies from the Qinhuai Orchestra." Following Song Qingshu and leading the horse in, Ge Liyan was still eagerly inviting, but Song Qingshu who was listening It was with a cold face that he waved his hand.

"Thank you, but let's follow the old rules, just go to the cafeteria, and don't need to engage in those specializations."

"But Commander, the last general has all the food and drink ready..."

"It's easy to handle. Pour it into the vegetable bucket and share it with all the teachers and soldiers. It's not a waste!"

Hearing Song Qingshu's refusal, He Yilong seemed rather annoyed, and promised obediently.

Not to mention, the charm of popular songs, this Yuer and others have not arrived, the songs have already spread to the military camp, especially a few rock songs with a sharp rhythm, many corps are singing while doing morning exercises, they seem to be more energetic Yes, this Yuer waited for thirteen girls to appear in the cafeteria, and the scene exploded. It was even more popular than Song Qingshu. A group of soldiers gathered around to ask for autographs and inscriptions, which made He Yilong so angry that he wanted to leave Curse, but Song Qingshu grabbed him and said with a smile.

"The soldiers are really temperamental. It's not a big deal. Discipline is tight enough for them on weekdays. Today, let's relax!"

Seeing his soldiers frantically surrounding Yu'er and the others, Ge Liyan's mouth twitched again, but he didn't say anything.

It took more than half an hour to sign the signature, and finally until Yu'er had a bitter face, shaking her small fist and screaming that she was hungry, a group of soldiers dispersed in consideration of the idols, and made room for Yu'er and the others to eat. After a lively lunch, I followed a few officers to visit the Xiamantou village, which was also used as a digestive, and the performance stage in the afternoon also kicked off.

It was the opening of the big fan waving again, the officers and soldiers below shouted excitedly, Song Qingshu also nodded in satisfaction, but no matter He Yilong or Lin Chengcheng, both of them were clearly preoccupied and restless, about three songs After singing, a messenger suddenly squeezed into the crowd, whispered a few words hastily in He Yilong's ear, and then his expression straightened, Ge Liyan also hastily lay down next to Song Qingshu's seat, and began to report in a low voice.

"Marshal, I'm back now, and I'm at the division headquarters. I have an urgent matter to meet with the commander! Please move the team!"

This is already the second time that He Yilong invited himself to his division headquarters, Song Qingshu couldn't help but his nerves twitched, he also wanted to do it?
