At the beginning of January, Li Ziying stepped into the Gansu territory, the land is high, Liao and the plain are very different, its interest is vast, boundless, the grass and trees on the high slopes of the loess are sparse, barren and cold, and desolate, the extreme eye is located in the ditch, the slope is thousands of hills, thousands of ravines or poplar jungle, the lonely trees stand steeply, or the thorns are thick, the barren grass is undulating, undulating, and the remote ground is very rare, the village houses are very rare, only to see a piece of dead leaves swept by the wind, rolling up the dry sandy soil

The old man and the village boy were shirtless but wore an old sheepskin jacket and a straw rope tied around their waists, singing to the sky, showing the wild and vast sky

"One by one, from that mountain, one by one, from one water, one by one, our relatives to Shaanxi, Gansu, one red flag, one gun, one gun, our team is strong, thousands of households, hey,

Hot oil cake, hey, serve it on the table, hey, hey,

Full of dark clouds, hey, hey, he

The lyrics are as desolate and distant as the original artistic conception of the lyrics

"Find a winter coat for him," Li Guolou waved his horsewhip and continued to hurry, entering the border of Gansu, begging along the way, and the villagers saw the army passing by, as if they had seen a big savior

Beside him, Ma Dequan took out a semi-cotton jacket from the carriage and threw it to the singing Xintianyou sheepherd, and handed him a hanging copper coin and said: "My brother will be a sycophant, but it's a pity that my father-in-law doesn't have the surname Zuo, otherwise you will send it today."

"Thank you, Master Jun, thank you, Master Jun, do you want someone to lead the way, my sheep are fat, do you want a few" The shepherd kept waving, his heart was not dead, his eyes were full of excitement, and his old face was full of wrinkles, and he saw that Ma Dequan's rough face was a little like a bitter man, and he refused to stop next to the war horse

Looking at the numb expression around him, Ma Dequan was all remnant, and his kindness was revealed: "The shepherd will lead the way, and there will be no one to buy two."

Ma Dequan took out a bag from the saddle, took out copper coins, and the shepherd did a hand to pay the money, and the other carriage next to a village boy also asked for money, this old and young sheepherd is actually a village secret whistle, if the military master looted and led the sheep, he would first send six sheep to buy a safe place, if he met the people who loved the people, such as the son, the Chu army villagers would go out to do some small business

Some villagers saw that the Li Ziying army was neat and tidy, and they were kind to the villagers, and the squires were all stunned when the squires were coming, and many sighed: "It's really worthy of being the military master of the Beijing Division, and the emperor's team loves the people like sons."

Some of the local young men who were dressed in tatters saw the Li Ziying army Rong Dingsheng, never saw foreign guns and foreign cannons, and heard about the treatment of Li Ziying, they were all moved, many people surrounded the roadside and asked to join Li Ziying, several squires in the village saw the power of the "rice master", and tried their best to implore the "rice master" to help the Sidaogang villagers, and the hunter Fang Zhiyong took two hunting dogs and carried a native gun, which was particularly conspicuous, and was very happy to be selected by the outpost team to become a member of the rangers

Li Ziying is not casually, anyone can join, most people's requirements are not met, but along the way, there have been some homeless people, about 100 villagers, "Master Rice" after a selection, Sidaogang took in five young men

Seeing that these military masters gave money, some villagers took out the accumulated Chinese herbs such as winter worms, summer grass, angelica, codonopsis, licorice, and some stock of dates, bracken, hemp, peppers and other items from their homes, and put them in rattan baskets, and began to do business with the military masters of the convoy who rested at noon

Business is not bad, there are always some military masters who buy some specialties and prepare for the tooth festival at night

Li Guolou was standing next to a big tree and peeing, the sentinel scabbard came from the horse, his face was so strange, as if there was something unspeakable, Li Guolou rolled his eyes and said: "What is the matter in front of the knife handle?"

"Hehe, Lord Li has encountered something strange, here the girls are wearing a sheepskin jacket, and they don't ask if our brothers are interested, I didn't ask for instructions," the scabbard Yun raised a eager expression on his eyebrows, and some girls took the initiative to send it to the door, and it was so cheap, if it weren't for the fear of violating the military order, the brothers would have been on it a long time ago

Li Guolou glared at the scabbard viciously, and wanted to angrily reprimand the "horse thief", the dog can't change the, but when he thinks about it, this is a man's normal need, he can carry a personal maid with him, and sleep on the kang head at night, others don't have this blessing, if he doesn't let these twenty "horse thieves" open meat, he will violate military discipline and be relaxed, and the commander can win the hearts of the people

Lowered his voice: "The knife handle has given me a clear hearing, give me back to the camp before six o'clock in the evening, if you can't come back, be careful of the dog's head."

"Hehe, Lord Li, don't worry, I like to fight quickly," the scabbard cloud hit the horse like flying, turned the horse's head and walked away in a hurry, roaring and roaring, making people think that the military affairs were urgent, and although it was hard to sleep in the open air, he met a reasonable chief who made him feel worthwhile, and his brothers did not complain about this trip, and the soldier died for his confidant

The next day, the vast land saw a cavalry rolling over, to see the banner, it was not Zuo Dashuai, the Chu soldiers, horses, local people and merchants, seeing that it was a strange guest army, not afraid of people, like the waves of the waves, the ground was scattered, all fled far away, a call for children and daughters, many shops were hurriedly closed, and even did not do business, the official business was a loss, or not to do it

Although the guards on the town and city had already received the news that this was a transit friendly army, they saw that the momentum of Li Ziying's camp was still tense, and everyone was on guard, but seeing that this army did not move, it just passed through and did not offend the people

The local people came back to their senses, crowded to the side, and the shops were reopened, and many people sighed while looking at it, where did this come from, an army saw a Li Ziqi waving in the wind, and the soldiers were dressed strangely, not like the Qing army

But it's guns and cannons, why are hundreds of cavalry still holding spike guns, like a New Year's painting, the god of the door, the fierce god is evil, and he is more elite than the left handsome soldiers, and finally a well-informed businessman woke up, opened the door of the shop, and shouted: "Folks, Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, here is the little plum team."

"Zhao Zilong" and "Little Plum" are like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, so that the people who are used to listening to storytelling come back to their senses, and the people on the street are full of voices before they flee, and the people gather to stay at home, and the little lady also comes to see the excitement with a three-inch golden lotus in spring

Li Guolou rode the wind and snow, thunder and lightning horses, and he was originally very recognizable, and sure enough, he pointed and pointed out, and the people recognized him, and commented on him: "Well, it's really like Changshan, Zhao Zilong is the reincarnation of Zhao Zilong, and our Qing Dynasty is solid."

"Little Plum is amazed, I like the love of boundless love," exclaimed a hippie smile

"Let's take a look," the people were still unwilling to make excessive demands

"Lord Li, let's stay for one night, we don't charge money here, it's very cheap for the official to come in," on the side of the street, a Yichun courtyard opened the window on the second floor, the old bustard and a group of prostitutes dressed up in flowers and branches spread their arms, shaking their hands, and their breasts jumped out of the window to show their proud minds

The soldiers of the Li Zi Battalion were accustomed to being natural, their expressions were dignified, they were not disturbed by the outside world, and they kept their usual pace and continued to move forward, leaving behind a strange town

This Li Guolou can't name the town, he just gave the leading officer a copper fetal painting enamel snuff bottle, which is regarded as the hard work of leading the way, but it is a small snuff bottle, and it has become a town treasure, and the Li Ziying camp in the shrine of Zilong Temple marches like this, as if every teahouse, every brothel, every restaurant, every inn, Li Guolou has lived, bringing no legends to the place

People say that a good man is not a soldier, and he is not a good man, and he rarely sees a man from a good family taking the initiative to ask to join the army, but there are always young people in tattered clothes in the Li Ziying march, who follow the team, push heavy artillery carts, and must help all the way to the end, and see a man who seems to be an official and asks to join the army, which happens every day

Looking at the big winter, with straw tied to their bodies as clothes, the poor peasants are pitiful and indignant, the world should be broken, and the poor people are either dying or looting, like this kind of soldier, they are not qualified, and the weak people Li Ziying also took in some, let them do what they can, let them recover their physical functions, at least like a person, and slowly the number of people has increased by more than 400 people, and the smile finally returned to this group of people, and I am confident that I will become a member of Li Ziying

6 Wutang student soldiers carry guns, carry magazines, carry a weight of 25 pounds, march an average of 4 miles a day, can also take turns to ride horses, ride in a car, eat well, sleep well, do not rush to march and hardship, after tempering their physique all the way, strengthening their health, the wind and snow did not crush the backbone of Wutang students, they grew up quickly in the ice and snow, conquered one mountain after another, and walked to the forefront of the team

Every night, the school officials still have to let the students read and practice calligraphy, and Li Guolou lectures every day in the camp

Liu Guangcai, the son of Liu Qiuzheng, the chief soldier of Datong, had already joined the martial arts, and like other young people, he sat on the kang and listened to Li Guolou's views on the importance of the patriotic ideology of loyalty to the monarch, and the importance of the patriotic ideology of the great man sat on the kang on three sides, and the room was a classroom, and he sincerely hoped that every student soldier could become an excellent commander

"Students, you must know what our bloody territory is for, what we are fighting for, when the motherland needs you, whether you are worthy of the country, you look forward to the motherland, the two words are not allowed to desecrate, territorial integrity can be desecrated, only then can we have the spirit of national independence, and it is our duty to open up territory for the motherland, not to mention that we must mercilessly eliminate the traitors who split the motherland, and build a unified, complete, self-reliant, It is our responsibility to seek prosperity and the Qing Dynasty, and it is also our obligation to dedicate our body to the motherland, there is no national view, there is no gateway view, there is no distinction between high and low, we are united under a flag, Wutang soldiers are united, loyal to the monarch and patriotic under this banner, scrupulously perform their duties, fight bloodily, have ideals, morality, blood, and pursuit, carry forward the patriotic ideology, let every soldier know what to fight for, for whom to fight, only in this way can the team be invincible, you will be the people who will lead the soldiers in the future, you must understand ideological education and tactical lessons, actual combat lessons are equally important, tactical lessons, The drill class is like a person with two legs, and a person with two legs can walk and stand firmly, but what does it rely on to support the two legs, it depends on the human brain, ideological education is to command the human head, melon seed thing, you don't laugh, the rebels slander the reputation of the Qing Dynasty at every turn, but also provoke ethnic hatred, return to chaos, kill the Han people, the Manchus, and the rebels moved out of the old Huang calendar, saying that the Manchus killed the Han people, Returning to the people, this requires us to think about which is right and which is wrong, take the wrong step, and the Han people will not be recovered, and the Han people will not kill the Han people to establish a dynasty, and change the dynasty and change the emperor, if we do not kill a sea of blood, the bones will stop, so you must not be deceived by the fallacies, and do not drag a nation into the abyss of no return for your own selfish interests."

Li Guolou paused, did not spit out, although these words are somewhat reactionary, but the spread of nationalist sentiment is the source of the chaos, all ethnic groups want to restore the glory of their ancestors, establish the same glorious empire as their ancestors, this time it is the Hui people, the next time it is the Han people, and the next time it is the Han people, and the next time, which one is righteous and which is reactionary, if nationalism is correct, and there is no need to suppress the uprising of various nationalities, let the Qing Dynasty be torn apart, and the city head will change the banner of the king as when it became five dynasties and ten kingdoms, so the unity of all nationalities is fundamental, put aside the past history, forget the bloody killings, don't let the Qing Dynasty become weak and bully the sick man of East Asia again and again, and take pride in being a Qing person, open up territory for the Qing Dynasty, and establish meritorious causes

As for ethnic hatred, no Han Chinese has heard a few words, although some people are young, but their ancestors have taught them from generation to generation, and they have long been engraved in their hearts and have never been revealed, and no one has ever told them whether they are right or wrong, whether they should be remembered or revenged

But tonight, Li Guolou told them how to look at the grievances and grievances between various ethnic groups, put aside the past, look forward to the common future, all ethnic groups in the Qing Dynasty live in harmony, abandon narrow nationalism, unite under one banner, dedicate all strength to the prosperity of the motherland and territorial integrity, and be proud of being a Qing person, it is absolutely shocking, words dare not touch the depths of the soul, and for the first time, I was moved, looking at Li Guolou's eyes are so hot and respected, and Li Guolou dares to say and dare to be, worthy of the soul of Wutang
