There was a news report in the newspaper that in Hirado, many Japanese people were reluctant to leave Hirado and were willing to become Chinese nationals.

Gao Junshan welcomes this situation, but there is one clause that all the Japanese people who voluntarily join the Chinese country must learn Chinese culture, especially the younger generation, and must be proud of learning Chinese culture.

Gao Junshan put down the newspaper, the eyes of the three ladies involuntarily turned to him, he made a gesture to let them be quiet, then walked to another window seat, and asked Li Derong to send a piece of manuscript paper, he took a pen and wrote a message on the manuscript paper, and then said to Li Derong: "Take this to the newspaper room and send it out immediately!" ”

Li Derong took the telegram and went to another carriage, which was sent to the general headquarters of the island country.

After seeing Li Derong go to another carriage, Gao Junshan got up and sat down beside Han Yuyan.

"Your Majesty, look outside, the mountains and trees outside are moving, it's so strange!" Han Yuyan excitedly said to Gao Jun Mountain.

Of course, Gao Junshan will not feel anything unusual, the speed of the train at this time is 80 to 100 miles per hour, which is far worse than the speed of the high-speed rail in later generations, so he said to Han Yuyan: "This is because the train runs fast, in twenty or thirty years, our train will be several times faster than now!" ”

……

Because it was a special train, the train did not stop all the way, but only made a short stop in Xuchang in order to add water and overhaul.

After 32 hours of travel, the train arrived at Wuchang Station in Huguang at 5 p.m. on April 24.

Didn't make too many stops in Wuchang Gaojun Mountain, simply ate a dinner, crossed the Yangtze River by boat, transferred to the train to Changsha at Jiangxia Railway Station, this train is not a special train for Gao Junshan, just added a carriage for Gao Junshan, so after getting on the train, it seems crowded a lot, the whole run for 11 hours, departing at eight o'clock in the evening, arrived at Changsha at seven o'clock in the morning the next day, two hundred miles west from Changsha, there is a small station, called Meicheng, this station is the terminal station of the railway, but, The train Gao Junshan was on was not going to Meicheng, and the next station was to Zhuzhou, so they had to change trains.

This transfer is much more convenient, just hang the car that Gao Junshan is riding on another ongoing train.

Gao Junshan got off the train and waited for an hour in the VIP waiting room of Changsha Railway Station, and the carriage he was in finally hung up on a westbound train.

After getting on the train, the train waited for another half an hour before departing, and after running for three hours, the train entered the final stop of the journey, Meicheng.

Meicheng is a town with a long history, convenient transportation, developed commerce and trade, and prosperous economy. Meicheng has been the cultural and educational center of Anhua since ancient times, and it is also the birthplace of Meishan culture. The place name of Meishan originated from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and a Yue people moved in, and its leader was surnamed Mei. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there was a legendary figure in Meishan: Mei Juan, who assisted the Han Dynasty to break through the Qin Dynasty and was named "100,000 Households". But he didn't want to be an official, so he died in seclusion. Meishan was a place of "deserted clothing" in ancient times. The inhabitants "pay tribute but do not pay", and there is no forced labor. There are many kinds of ancient ethnic groups in the territory, collectively referred to as "Wuling Changsha Man" in the Han Dynasty, "Xiangzhou Man" in the Jin Dynasty, "Bureaucrats" in the Song and Qi dynasties in the Southern Dynasties, "Mo Xi" in the Liang and Chen to Sui periods, and "Meishan Man" in the Tang and Song dynasties. Before the Han Dynasty, Meishan established a chiefdom kingdom. From the Five Dynasties to the Northern Song Dynasty, Fuhanyang, the leader of the left armor of the Fuyi people, possessed Meishan, and its political, economic and cultural center was located in Meicheng. In the second year of Taiping Xingguo in the Northern Song Dynasty (977), the imperial court sent Zhai Shousu to lead troops to attack Meishan, and Fu Hanyang was killed in battle. In the fifth year of Xining in the Northern Song Dynasty (1072), the imperial court sent a chapter to mourn "Kaimei Mountain". Su Gan, the leader of Meishan, was forced by the situation and led the people to surrender.

Now, the railway has been repaired to Meicheng, and the commercial development of Meicheng has undergone earth-shaking changes, and their tea, medicinal herbs, peanuts, tung oil, lacquer, palm chips, papaya, kiwifruit, litsea cubeba, fruits, jade bamboo, and turmeric have been exported overseas.

The train slowly entered Meicheng Station, although Meicheng is a small station, because he is not a terminal station in the actual sense, and his railway line has to extend in the direction of Yunnan, but Gao Junshan stopped the construction of the railway in the mountainous area, and it became a temporary terminal station.

There is only one platform at Meicheng Station, and there are many people getting on and off the platform when Gao Junshan gets off the platform, and passengers are waiting in line to get out of the station.

Gao Junshan was accompanied by 200 Imperial Guards and 300 Cao Gang brothers, who also took this train, and they separated ordinary passengers from Gao Junshan on the platform.

Because they were all on the platform, although they were protected by the Imperial Forest Army, Gao Junshan was still recognized, these people were Chongwen's disciples, Gao Junshan's students.

Li Derong came to Gao Junshan and reported: "Your Majesty, there are a few Chongwen disciples over there, I want to see you." ”

Gao Junshan asked, "How many people?" ”

"Dozens of people."

Gao Junshan said: "You tell them, let them send a few representatives, I also want to meet them." ”

"Yes!"

Not long after Li Derong left, he brought five scholar-like people over.

"Meet the Chief!" These five people worshiped as soon as they saw the high mountain.

Gao Junshan knew one of them, this person's surname was Hao, and he was the teacher of these people, and Gao Junshan asked them: "What are you doing in Meicheng?" ”

Teacher Hao replied, "We are here to build the railway. ”

Gao Junshan said: "You have worked hard, I hope you can build the mountain railway as soon as possible." ”

Teacher Hao said: "I heard that the Japanese country is going to send 5 million laborers to support the construction of our mountain railway, I don't know if it's true? ”

Gao Junshan said: "It's true, and it will be there soon." But they didn't really come to support us, they were defeated by us, and they didn't have the money to compensate us, and these five million laborers came to pay off the debt. ”

Teacher Hao said: "No matter what, our mountain railway can be rebuilt, which is a thing worth celebrating!" ”

Gao Junshan said: "The construction of the mountain railway is all up to you, and now that you have laborers, you must make every effort to build the railway." ”

Mr. Hao said: "We have received an order from the higher-level railway bureau, let us immediately rush to the front line of railway construction, and prepare for the arrival of the army of railway construction." ”

Gao Junshan said: "I have already issued a decree to the Railway Bureau, after the restart of the mountain railway, we must work hard and quickly, and build eight railway lines across the country at any cost. I will do whatever it takes, I am saying to the five million Japanese laborers, you don't have to worry about them, in order to build eight railways, it doesn't matter how many Japanese people die. ”

Teacher Hao asked: "At the beginning, there were too many deaths because of the construction of the mountain railway, and you stopped the construction of the mountain railway. ”

Gao Junshan said: "When you see them, you will understand why, they are just a bunch of barbarians, they have never known how to respect human life, so you don't have to worry about them." Remember, if they don't obey discipline, you can beat them to death until you subdue them. ”

"And if they're still not convinced?"

"Just let them disappear. You don't have to worry about the lack of manpower, anyway, how many people died, the Wa Kingdom must make up for us. ”
