It was already more than one o'clock in the afternoon when Gao Junshan and his entourage returned to the villa from the Yinya Restaurant, and as soon as he came back, he received a telegram from Pan Zide, in which Pan Zide said that he had led the Suez Canal planning team to Cairo, but without the assistance of Cao Wenzhao, they could not go out to survey the landform, because Cao Wenzhao said that the construction of the railway was above all else.

He immediately sent a telegram to Cao Wenzhao, telling Cao Wenzhao that the construction of the railway was a fart, and that the Suez Canal was the project above all else, and asked him to go all out to cooperate with Pan Zide's work.

Cao Wenzhao received a telegram from Gao Junshan, how dare he slack off, and immediately drove to the hotel where Pan Zide was staying.

As soon as he saw Dao Pan, he criticized himself and said: "Old Pan, the emperor has already beaten me severely, I apologize to you for my previous attitude, and blame me for not making it clear to you, it's not that the headquarters doesn't send you a car, but the road is blocked, and it's useless to give you a car." Now, I've decreed that all vehicles must give way to you, and you can go wherever you want, and my jeep will give you a seat. ”

Pan Zide craned his neck and asked, "I took Mr. Cao's car, isn't it inconvenient for you to travel?" ”

Cao Wenzhao said: "It's convenient and convenient. The headquarters puts you first, and we will send troops to protect your safety wherever you go. ”

Pan Zide said: "Okay, since Mr. Cao is so sincere, it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate, we will borrow your jeep, but a jeep is not enough, we have a total of thirty-two people, and I also need a big truck." ”

"Okay, I'll transfer the truck to you immediately." After Cao Wenzhao finished speaking, he turned around and shouted to his driver, "Xiao Fang! From now on, you will obey Minister Pan's arrangement, and Minister Pan will go wherever he says. ”

"Obey!" Xiao Fang was a very clever young man, and when he heard Cao Wenzhao's order, he immediately stood by Pan Zide's side.

Cao Wenzhao transferred a truck and sent two cavalry companies to follow Pan Zide.

Pan Zide had already made preparations for going out to investigate, and he was waiting for Cao Wenzhao to send people, and now that there were cars and people, he set off immediately.

Pan Zide's team of 30 people got into a military truck, and Pan Zide and his assistant Li Yisheng got into Cao Wenzhao's jeep.

Li Yisheng is Li Ruoxing's grandson, and he survived 27 years ago when the queen mother Han Yuyan helped deliver the baby.

Li Yisheng's name was given by his grandmother, who told him that if he hadn't helped the rebels back then, he might have been stillborn. Now he is twenty-seven years old and has graduated from the Department of Water Conservancy of Chongwen College.

After Pan Zide and Li Yisheng got into the jeep, the driver Xiao Fang asked, "Minister Pan, where are we going now?" ”

Pan Zide said: "Send us to Hankou first, and we must first see the mouth of the Suez Canal." ”

Xiao Fang started the jeep, and he stepped on the clutch and said, "Okay, go to Hankou." ”

Hankou is located in the Mediterranean Sea of Hankou Port, now it belongs to a port in China, in order to Sinicize the place name here, so the Port of Said was renamed Hankou Port.

Before the jeep started, two cavalry company commanders came to the jeep, they were the company commanders of two cavalry companies sent by Cao Wenzhao to protect Pan Zide, one was the commander of the Cossack cavalry company, named Racin, and the other was the commander of the Persian cavalry company, called Dattis.

Both Racine and Datis spoke Chinese, and because they were very familiar with the local customs and language, Cao Wenzhao sent them to Pan Zide.

Pan Zide had the two cavalry companies follow behind the car, and the team of chariots and horses left Cairo.

Pan Zide and they went out of the north gate, and the convoy went north after leaving the city gate, and now it is the busiest time for transportation, and there is a steady stream of more than 1,000 trucks coming from Hankou Port, and these trucks are responsible for transporting goods from Hankou Port to Cairo, many of which are laborers from the island countries.

The jeep drove very slowly after leaving the city, because there was always a chance to meet traffic, and the road was only two lanes, and every time a truck came coming at him, Xiao Fang had to be very careful to slow down.

Pan Zide said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Fang, when will we be able to get to Hankou when you drive like this?" ”

Xiao Fang held the steering wheel in his hand, and replied while staring ahead: "Minister Pan, this speed is already fast, there is no way, the road is not easy to walk!" ”

Li Yisheng said: "Master Xiaofang, apart from this road, is there any other way to go?" ”

Xiao Fang shook his head and said: "Who wants to take such a road on other roads, you see, now this road is crushed by big trucks and potholes, and the road itself is not wide, and it is even more difficult to think fast now." ”

Li Yisheng asked: "Why would this road surface be pressed like this?" ”

Pan Zide replied for the driver: "Don't you see that these trucks are all overweight? It's no wonder that such a heavy truck doesn't crush the road! ”

Xiao Fang said: "This is also no way, no one wants to do this, the trucks are pulling equipment used on the railway, so they have to be overweight." ”

Li Yisheng seemed to understand and said, "Oh, I see! ”

The jeep kept moving forward, and it was better to meet the truck, at most it would pass slowly, and the most afraid was to meet the ox carts, some of which occupied a wider position than the trucks, and the small party could only stop the jeeps and let these ox carts pass first.

Li Yisheng had never seen the islanders, and he saw that some carriages were full of dwarfs, so he asked the driver Xiao Fang: "Who are those?" Short and small, where are they going? ”

Xiao Fang said: "These are the laborers of the island country. ”

Li Yisheng was surprised: "The laborers of the island country! All of them are so short. ”

Xiao Fang said in a teasing tone: "How tall can the radish head grow?" ”

Pan Zide said: "Don't make fun of others, drive seriously!" ”

Xiao Fang stuck out his tongue and drove the car intently.

The jeep traveled for a short time, and then saw a group of island laborers on foot, the island laborers I saw at first were sitting in a carriage, and I didn't think how short they were, but now when I saw them walking in a line, even Pan Zide couldn't help laughing.

As the jeep drove forward slowly, Pan Zide suddenly shouted, "Stop, stop!" ”

Xiao Fang didn't know what was going on, he stepped on the brakes, turned around and asked, "Minister Pan, what happened?" ”

Pan Zide said: "What about the truck in the back?" ”

Xiao Fang said: "Minister Pan, don't worry, the truck behind can't be lost, because the truck is wider than our jeep, although it will be more difficult when encountering a car, naturally go slowly, as long as the road is good, they will catch up." ”

Pan Zide said: "I don't care when they catch up, anyway, I can't leave now." ”(https:)
