Chapter 54: Retrieving the Treasure Pingliang Presents the City

These Dashun troops were all frightened birds, and when they found that people were surrounding them, they began to scatter and flee. But where are the bullets fast, those soldiers of the Dashun Army who did not listen to the advice and fled were shot and named by Li Jing's people one by one. In the end, there were more than 100 people left who didn't dare to move, and they squatted on the ground one by one and felt too wronged, and they were robbed before they could open the box to see what these treasures were.

Li Jing: When they came closer, they felt that their luck was simply too good. If they had come earlier, they would have had to do the dirty and tiring work themselves; If it's a little late, the consequences will be difficult to say.

However, Li Jing and the others came to the entrance of the cave where the treasure was hidden, turned on the flashlight, and came to the cave to take a look, and saw that there were still many things that had not been moved out. Li Jing and the others hurriedly instructed everyone to move things outside. But moving around, the clever Li Jing found that the things that were moved out were a little different. Because the boxes sent by Li Zicheng are basically the same, but the size is different, and the style is also the same. The boxes that were shipped out of the back were obviously different, and there were all kinds of them.

Li Jing quietly asked the two soldiers who came to investigate, what was going on? But the two of them couldn't tell. While loading boxes into the wagon, one of the special forces who came from the scout said, "Head! I remember. They didn't have that many boxes, and I think there were boxes here that they had left here. If you look at the dust on the boxes, there is no dust on the new boxes. ”

Li Jing patted her head and understood that this was Li Zicheng's treasure cave. It turns out that there are a lot of things here, and the various boxes are the things they used to loot. Those boxes of the same format are the contents of their treasury.

Li Jing asked people to go into the cave and look carefully, but they didn't find anything anymore, so they asked people to seal the entrance of the cave.

Then he took a large group of people and horses, escorted the babies, and walked back. When they returned to Xi'an and did not enter the city, they walked directly along Weishui towards Weinan. Use the barge to transport materials to Weinan to transport the treasure directly back to Lingshui Wharf. Li Jing's special forces escorted all the way. When he arrived at Lingshui Wharf, Lu Chengxiang had already personally greeted Lingshui Wharf. Lu Chengxiang watched as the babies changed into a boat leading to the kiln and transported back to the kiln.

Li Jing told Liu Yun about the process of taking the baby in one breath, and said with palpitations: "I was a little scared twice in my heart. The last time Mr. Zhang was assassinated, it was when I heard that someone went to pick up the treasure in front of us. ”

After listening to the story told by Li Jing, Liu Yun also felt a little angry, and said, "Your kid has always been lucky. No wonder Uncle Shi and Mr. Zhang like you. ”

"Oops! How can you be lucky, you are now the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, leading all the way through northern Shaanxi, how exciting? Li Jing still envies Liu Yun for leading the way.

"Alright! Let's be content. You and I are just a bodyguard who sells my life, and I am not satisfied with the retribution until now. "No matter what Li Jing's identity is, Liu Yun is not polite to speak to this junior brother.

The two brothers had endless things to say when they were together, but strangely enough, neither of them talked about the war. In their eyes, there is nothing to say about war.

But they inevitably have to talk about Li Wei.

Liu Yun smiled and said: "Li Wei, the unlucky guy, is with you, and you will be able to take advantage of all the good things." If you hadn't gone to pick up any treasures, I'm afraid Li Wei wouldn't be able to do any work now. ”

"Huh! No, I won't go, Uncle Shi will find something for him. Li Jing said proudly, "Ping Liang, Uncle Shi still needs me to be a striker." However, Li Wei and the others who fought Gongchang, Taozhou, Lintao, and Minzhou in the past did not bite their heads. At most, he entered the city after firing a few shots in Taozhou, and it is estimated that Li Wei's anger is broken. Hehe! ”

"They arrived in Lanzhou early, right?" Liu Yun asked.

"Huh! General Ningde had just taken Lanzhou, and they arrived within two days. Li Jing couldn't help but laugh.

"Huh! Li Wei, an unlucky bastard, can't catch up with the heat when he eats. Liu Yun couldn't help laughing.

Liu Yun returned to Xianyang again, explained it, and returned to Xi'an to take over the defense of Weishui.

Ouyang He personally arranged for the concubines in Li Zicheng's palace who were willing to go to Xiangyang to find Li Zicheng. During this time, in addition to not being allowed to enter or leave the palace, all the expenses were taken care of by the kiln people. Outsiders are not allowed to enter the palace.

Li Wen, the imperial historian of Li Zicheng, did not go with Li Zicheng, and he said to Li Zicheng: "Since Li Yan asked me to send a letter to the emperor, you are here." Li Yan promised you that I would treat your family and old friends well, so I should stay, see Li Yan, and let Li Yan keep his promise. ”

"You'd better come with me! Once they don't keep their promises, you're in danger. Li Zicheng is also reluctant to give up people like Li Wen.

"Your Majesty, I have made up my mind. If they don't keep their promises, I'm not the only one who will die. I deserve to die with them. "Levine is resolute.

Li Zicheng couldn't help it, so he wiped his tears and sent Li Wen away.

Since Li Yan did not come to Xi'an, this Ning species Li Wen asked to see Ouyang He, which explained the hope that the people of Yaogang would keep their promises.

Ouyang He also admired people like Li Wen and assured him: "We Yaogang people have always been good at talking. You see, the first thing we did when we entered the city was to secure the palace. Now the expenses in the palace are all provided by us. We are building the Shangyu Ancient Road, where the road is open. We will immediately send the nobles in the palace out of the Shangyu Ancient Road. We will not break our word. If Mr. Li doesn't believe me, you can always go into the palace and have a look. ”

In this way, Li Wen is a person who can enter the palace at any time.

Before setting off, Ouyang He invited Li Wen and told him, "Mr. Li, the Shangyu Ancient Road has now been completed. We're going to arrange a vehicle to take everyone from the palace. What other old days do you have about Li Zicheng, let's go together if you want to. There is also a response on the road. ”

Li Wen was moved and thanked, and immediately went back to organize those Li Zicheng who were leaving.

Ouyang He sent people to send them to the Shangyu Ancient Road all the time. They were given a long convoy. The imperial concubines were also equipped with glass carriages. They brought them enough food and forage for the journey.

After dealing with this matter, Ouyang He said to Chen Yufeng: "Zhang always wants to leave some thoughts for us to meet Li Zicheng one day!" ”

"Zhimu looks farther away!" Chen Yufeng couldn't help but admire.

Handed over the matter here to Liu Yun, Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He took Li Jing, the former enemy command center and the brigade, and began to cross Weishui and march towards Pingliang Mansion.

Pingliang Prefecture has jurisdiction over 3 prefectures and 7 counties, namely Jingzhou, Jingning Prefecture, Guyuan Prefecture and Pingliang, Huating, Chongxin, Zhenyuan, Longde, Lingtai (Jingzhou) and Zhuanglang County (Jingning Prefecture). However, when Liu Chenghuang ran to Guyuan, he had already cleaned a lot of Pingliang places. It turned out that some of the soldiers and horses stationed in Pingliang ran away, and some fled to Guyuan. There are only more than 5,000 terrified soldiers and horses here. After they got that Guyuan had been defeated, they didn't know what to do.

In fact, Pingliang is located at the eastern foot of Longshan Mountain, the upper reaches of the Jing River, which is the ancient road from the west of Guanzhong to the north; According to the danger of six plates and three passes, it has always been a battleground for soldiers. However, General Guo Yi, who was stationed in Guyuan, knew that he could not divide his troops to guard everywhere, and could only concentrate his troops to hold Guyuan, so the number of soldiers and horses left in Pingliang was limited. After Chen Yufeng and Ouyang He learned about this situation, they did not let Liu Chenghuang and Li Kui return to attack Pingliang, and when they were about to pass by Pingliang, they solved it together.

Li Jing came to Pingliang Mansion with the pioneers, surrounded the city, and patiently publicized it with a loudspeaker, patiently introduced the situation in the whole territory of Shaanxi after Li Zicheng walked from the ancient road to business, and shot the letter of persuasion into the city. As a result, in the afternoon, all the officers and soldiers of Dashun in the city surrendered. These Dashun officers and soldiers were finally liberated.

The news that Pingliang was solved without bloodshed made Zhang Zhimu and Yan Boju, Lu Bingyi and others in the command center very happy. Zhang Zhimu called Editor-in-Chief Fan to inform him that the good news would be broadcast immediately.

Yan Boju suddenly asked, "I said, where is our Lu Dacai God, why haven't we seen him for a few days?" ”

"Huh! Li Jing brought back all Li Zicheng's belongings, can Mr. Lu not count them himself? Zhang Zhimu said, "Our family Yukun has a bit of a headache when he says something." ”

"Huh! As Mr. Lu said, we may not lose this battle. Judging from the results of the battles in various places, they did not have much gold and silver treasures seized. But to get Li Zicheng's family background, I think it's indispensable. How many princes did Li Zicheng capture? Good things, he doesn't know how much he pulled? Lu Bingyi said.

"Humph! To manage the mess in Shaanxi, the silver used is indispensable. Yan Boju said, "I don't think there is anything big going on in Shaanxi except for the west side of the Yellow River." This Pingliang Mansion is the last city we took. ”

"I see that the weather is good today, and the mood is good, so let's not stay here," Lu Bingyi suggested, "How about we go to the Fenhe Bridge construction site to see the excitement?" ”

"Okay, let's go out and get some air!" Zhang Zhimu should be with him, "Uncle Yan, you will go with you too." ”

"I'm not going," Yan Boju said, "I'll take a look at my sweaty BMW when I have time, the mare already has cubs." I don't worry about them. ”

"Come on! Mr. Yan," Lu Bingyi pulled Yan Boju and said, "It's not too late, let's go and cheer up the construction site." ”

The three of them left the command center and went to Yaogang Wharf to take the boat in the direction of Lingshui Wharf, chatting lightly along the way.

Zhang Zhimu asked Lu Bingyi: "I have asked Li Yunhe to organize a well-drilling team to go to the vicinity of Yan'an to drill oil wells that extract fierce fire oil. Li Zhi's people have found out that there is a place where oil is gushing out of the ground. Like coal tar, it can not only refine gasoline, kerosene and diesel, but also extract good things such as benzene and toluene. I've been wondering whether to build a local refinery or bring it back to the kiln to refine. What about your opinion? ”

Lu Bingyi said: "I think let's transport it back for refining first." If you build an oil refinery there, everything will have to be transported and electricity will have to be hauled in. If we don't have enough oil refining in the future, there will be a lot of oil extracted locally. Maybe the conditions over there will be better. At that time, it was worth building a factory there. ”

"What Mr. Lu said is," Zhang Zhimu said, "in the future, oil extraction and refining will be a big industry, and I want to set up a special working committee to do this." Because the oil that we extract from the ground is not only oil, but also water and natural gas. We need to separate water and gas so that we can use it, and we can store it as the best fuel. ”

"I agree with that, if that's the case, we won't have to worry about running out of gas." Lu Bingyi said.

"Yes! However, natural gas is just as dangerous as coal gas, and we need to be extra careful when collecting natural gas. If you don't get it right, it will explode. All natural utensils and tools must be explosion-proof. The clothes you wear should not be static, otherwise it will be very dangerous. So we need a dedicated team to do this. ”

"I think our professional team should be formed mainly by Qingfengzi's people, who know about these dangerous things. Others don't dare to touch those things yet. Lu Bingyi suggested.

Yan Boju suddenly interjected: "I heard that the kerosene we produce is not enough to sell, diesel fuel can also be used in their speedboats, and there is still a lot of gasoline left that has been useless, and it is still dangerous to put it away." You've got to figure it out. ”

Lu Bingyi also said: "Yes! Gasoline is used to scrub machine parts in the factory floor, but there is still too much of it in the smelter. ”

"Huh!" Zhang Zhimu smiled and said, "Those few who developed gasoline engines have not been wiped much." As long as you start using that gasoline, it's not enough to do anything. ”

Zhang Zhimu and several of them went ashore from Lingshui Wharf, without alarming others on the wharf, and went directly to the construction site of the Fenhe Bridge. But as soon as they arrived at the scene, they couldn't help but attract everyone's attention.

It just so happened that Li Yunhe was also here and Lu Qi was studying something, and when he saw Zhang Zhimu and them coming, he hurriedly greeted them.

Lu Qi said straightly: "Oops! Mr. Zhang, why didn't you say anything when you came over, I will arrange someone to pick you up. ”

"I don't want to bother you, we're just going to come and have a look." Zhang Zhimu said.

Li Yunhe came over and said: "Now the project is progressing very smoothly. It's much easier to do the second one after the first pile, and now I've done two and I'm working on the third pile. ”

Zhang Zhimu said: "Okay! After the piles are done, all that remains is to build the piers. Be sure to stay safe. Erecting arches in the future will be a big test. ”

Lu Qi said: "We have considered several construction plans, and then we will decide what to do when the situation comes!" ”

"At the same time as you build the bridge this time, you must train a team to build the bridge." "After we finish building here, we will build a few more of these bridges on the Fen River, and then we will build bigger bridges over the Yellow River." ”

"Build a bridge over the Yellow River?" Lu Qi was very interested, "Where to build?" ”

"Huh! The first one needs to be built at Hequ, the second one needs to be built here at Tongguan, and the third one needs to be built at Matouguan. There will be more in the future. Zhang Zhimu said with a smile.

"It is right to build bridges at Hequ and Tongguan, where future transportation will be indispensable." Li Yunhe didn't understand and said, "What are you building this big bridge in Matouguan for?" ”

"Didn't I ask you to organize a drilling team to go to Yan'an to drill for oil? When the time comes, we need to bring back the recovered oil, and the volume of transportation is very large. Besides, if the bridge is built here, Shaanxi and Shanxi will be connected. The benefits in the future are too many. Zhang Zhimu explained.

"Come on! You can talk slowly in the future," Yan Boju said, "Let's go!" Let's see how the bridge is built. ”

Everyone came to the riverbank.

The approach bridge piers on both sides of the Fenhe Bridge have been built. Two steel pipe piles have been built in the river, and a box platform has been welded on top of the steel pipe piles.

On this platform near the riverbank, workers have begun to build concrete piers. Large steel round arches on the riverbank are also already being welded. There are people on both sides of the river.

Yan Boju went over and kicked the seamless steel pipe piled up on the shore to drive piles, and asked, "I said Zhimu, how did you get this steel pipe without seams?" ”

Li Yunhe came over to make fun of Yan Boju and said, "Uncle Yan! We all participate in the study, except for you. You see, you don't even understand what a seamless steel pipe is now. ”

"Little bunny, I don't have to learn how to get a mare pregnant. I don't build bridges, what do I learn from that? Yan Boju's eyes widened.

"Actually, the reason for this thing is very simple. We burned the round steel red, clamped it with three rotating rollers, and pushed it forward, and the front was pressed against a sharp cone, didn't we cone out a round hole in the round steel? We cone a small hole at a time, a slightly larger one in the cone the second time, and a larger cone the third time to cone out the hole. Of course, there are plastic surgery and other things later. Zhang Zhimu patiently explained to Yan Boju.

Lu Bingyi also said beside him: "Now the smelting field has been improved. They use three cones in a row, so they can cone the hole in one go. However, a thrust was added behind the round bar. ”

Yan Boju nodded after hearing this, and said, "Then is our mortar directly made of this seamless steel pipe?" ”

Li Yunhe said: "The mortars we produce now are all processed with seamless steel pipes. In the past, it was processed with round steel, not to mention the cost of materials. ”

"Can our cannons be made of steel pipes like this?" Yan Boju was also interested in these.

"No, the steel of our home cannon barrel needs to be forged repeatedly with a hydraulic press." Li Yunhe said.

"Huh!" Yan Boju Yile said, "I've been to see the forging press. That's really a thing-for-nothing. A large ingot burns red on the forging press, like a cotton ball. That's awesome! ”

Zhang Zhimu and a few of them went to various places on the construction site and looked at the construction workers. At this time, someone ran over and said, "The kiln gang called and said that Li Yan had arrived at the kiln gang." And what else to bring the prince of Mongolia. ”

As soon as Zhang Zhimu heard it: "Yo! Waiting for him! Li Yan came back so soon. ”

Yan Boju said: "A few days ago, they sent a telegram saying that they had arrived in Baotou, and it was estimated that they would come back by train. ”

"Hey! They took a boat to the meanders and then a train, which was faster. Li Yunhe said.

Zhang Zhimu said to Lu Qi: "Look at it, I originally wanted to have a drink with you, but now I can't." ”

Li Yunhe said: "Okay! I'll go back with you too. ”

On the way back, Lu Bingyi said to Zhang Zhimu: "I see that the railways in other parts of our country have already seen their eyebrows. Is it time to build our double railway line from San'in to Yaogang? ”

"It's time to build. However, the railway from Datong to Yaogang should be built into a double line. Zhang Zhimu said. Because Zhang Zhimu knew that Datong would have a large open-pit coal mine in the future.

Lu Bingyi didn't understand why Zhang Zhimu wanted to build the Datong section into a double line, but they didn't ask.

Li Yunhe asked: "When did you go to Taiyuan to repair?" ”

Lu Bingyi replied: "In the second half of the year." ”

When he got off the boat at Yaogang, Li Yunhe asked Zhang Zhimu: "Tomorrow our tractor will leave the factory, will you go and see it?" ”
