Chapter 2 Rafting across the sea and setting off on the return journey

Section 3 Qianfu Manor

Liu Yunwei and the others talked with Qian Mingli for a while, and when they saw that it was not early, they were about to leave and go back. Qian Mingli didn't hold on anymore, and said to Uncle Zhao beside him: "Since the little general and the generals are going back to the camp, then Uncle Zhao will make a hard trip, lead the way for the little general, and lead the soldiers to our manor outside the city to station." ”

Uncle Zhao nodded and said, "Okay, don't worry." ”

Qian Mingli said again: "When you get to the manor, Uncle Zhao will stay there and take care of it, and you must settle the little general and the soldiers in the camp." ”

"Certainly, definitely, the little elder will arrange it properly."

Liu Yunwei was very moved when he saw that Qian Mingli was so enthusiastic and cared so much about himself and the soldiers in the battalion, and said: "Qian Mingli is so gracious, I am grateful!" ”

Qian Mingli said: "Don't be polite, little general. The little general led the soldiers to fight a bloody battle to build slaves, which can be said to have avenged my money, you are my benefactor, and you should treat your benefactor like this. ”

Liu Yunwei and the others thanked them again, and then left the Qian Mansion with Uncle Zhao and went out of the city. And Qian Mingli sent everyone all the way out of Lushun City.

When he arrived at the city gate, Liu Yunwei resolutely refused to let Qian Mingli send it again, and said: "Qian Mingli will stay outside, and I will say goodbye to the staff here for a while." ”

Qian Mingli said with a smile; "It's okay, then I won't send it. Little generals, generals, go slowly, tomorrow I will go to the manor, and then we will have a good time. ”

"Okay, farewell." After speaking, Liu Yunwei hugged his fists and saluted.

Qian Mingli also waved goodbye and said, "Little general, go slowly, let's meet tomorrow." ”

After saying goodbye, Liu Yunwei and others rode slowly with Zhao Bo, and it didn't take long for them to come to the station of Hanwei's camp. When the soldiers guarding the camp gate saw Liu Yunwei and others coming back, they opened the camp gate and sent someone to inform Lu Ying and others.

Uncle Zhao followed Liu Yunwei into the camp, kept looking left and right, and let out a burst of admiration from time to time, and said: "The Hanwei camp really deserves its reputation, it is worthy of being an elite army that recreated slaves, and the little general's command is all tiger warriors." ”

"Uncle Zhao praised it." Liu Yunwei said with a smile.

While talking, everyone came to the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Ying and others were already waiting here at this time, and when they saw Liu Yunwei, they stepped forward and saluted together. Liu Yunwei introduced Uncle Zhao to everyone, and briefly talked about the process of going to Qian Mansion, and then said: "Qian Yuanwai sincerely invited us to settle down in the manor in the south of Lushun City, and I agreed when I saw that it was difficult to resist. Lu Ying, you immediately send the order, and the soldiers of the battalion immediately pack up their bags, pull out the camp and set up the village, and Uncle Zhao will lead the way to the manor outside Qian Yuan for us. ”

"Yes!" Lu Ying immediately went to make arrangements. After only a while, a swan whistle was heard, and the officers and men in the battalion began to assemble one after another, and under the command of their respective superiors, they orderly pulled out the camp and packed up.

Seeing this, Uncle Zhao said with admiration: "Obey the order, not chaotic at all, the soldiers are all elite soldiers." ”

Liu Yunwei was polite again, but after everyone around him heard it, they were all proud in their hearts.

It didn't take long for the 2,500 soldiers of the Hanwei battalion to be ready to go, and as soon as Liu Yunwei gave an order, the soldiers of the whole battalion set off under the guidance of Zhao Bo.

The army marched slowly from north to south around the city of Arthur, and in the evening, a very large manor appeared in the eyes of the soldiers of the Hanwei battalion.

I saw that the north and east sides of the manor were all fertile fields, and the acres of fields that could not be seen were full of green seedlings; To the west is a forest that has emitted tender green, like a huge screen protecting the whole manor; To the south, you can see the harbor and the sea, with a straight road leading to the port. The whole manor not only occupies a huge area, but also is well planned, although there is no luxurious building, but the layout is very exquisite, hundreds of large and small houses are scattered in the manor, forming many different courtyards, many workers and people in the village go in and out, it seems that everything is in order.

Liu Yunwei looked at the manor in front of him and said with admiration: "This is really a paradise, Lushun has such a resort, it is really not easy to be a stranger." ”

Cheng Shiyong also said with a smile: "Little general, although I have been to Lushun several times, I have only been to this manor once, and when I saw such a good place, I was stupid, and I was almost knocked down by a passing horse." ”

Everyone laughed when they heard it, and Cheng Shiyong himself also laughed.

Uncle Zhao also couldn't stop laughing, and finally stopped laughing, and said: "Now this place looks like a paradise, but it was not built overnight, but it was built little by little by our staff, and it took a lot of effort from our staff during the period." ”

Everyone thought that such a good manor must have taken a lot of effort to build. Everyone looked at it for a while, as if they were enjoying a rare beauty, and they couldn't stop talking.

Uncle Zhao smiled and waited for a while, then said, "Little generals, generals, let's go in, so that the soldiers can rest and rest early." ”

Liu Yunwei said: "Okay, Uncle Lao Zhao will lead the way." ”

Zhao Bo took Liu Yunwei and others and the soldiers of the Hanwei battalion into the manor, and introduced the situation of the manor to Liu Yunwei as he walked, and said: "Little general, this manor outside the staff is divided into four areas, southeast, northwest and northwest, each area is relatively closed, and there are several courtyards in it. The east side of it is used by the staff and their families, the west side is the staff outside the business where foreign friends have stayed overnight, the north side is the subordinates, Zhuang Ding and guest rooms, only the south courtyard has been idle now, and the soldiers in the camp are wronged in the south. ”

"Okay." Liu Yunwei said: "There is Uncle Zhao. ”

Zhao Bo said: "Where is the little general, I should also do it." So I asked the steward of the manor to arrange a house for the soldiers, so that they could rest and eat earlier. The little general and a few generals will wait a moment, and I will take you to the upper room to rest later. ”

Immediately afterwards, a steward came with dozens of people, divided into several groups under Zhao Bo's arrangement, and led a team of Hanwei battalion soldiers into the courtyard to settle in the south. Liu Yunwei, Yuan Mingxuan, Lu Ying and others were talking with Zhao Bo while observing the surrounding scenery.

During this period, from time to time, many subordinates, Zhuang Ding and guests came to watch, obviously the neatness and majesty of the soldiers of the Hanwei Battalion shocked them, and they all whispered on the side, and from time to time let out a burst of exclamations, as if they were watching the heavenly soldiers descend to earth.

At this time, Yuan Mingxuan tugged Liu Yunwei and winked. Liu Yunwei quietly looked in the direction indicated by Yuan Mingxuan, and saw more than a dozen Buddha machine people resting in the gazebo in the distance, looking towards this side from time to time.

Liu Yunwei was secretly taken aback, thought for a while, and then said to Uncle Zhao: "Uncle Zhao, there are still Franc machine people in the manor outside the money clerk?" ”

Zhao Bo looked in the direction of Liu Yunwei's finger and said, "Oh, the little general is talking about the Yiren over there?" Those were brought by friends in business outside the staff, and they were all sailors with that friend (i.e., sailors). ”

Liu Yunwei nodded and didn't say anything more. At this time, Yuan Mingxuan took advantage of the opportunity for Zhao Bo and Cheng Shiyong to speak, and said in Liu Yunwei's ear: "Little general, the Francophone who clashed with us before is also in that group of people. ”

After hearing this, Liu Yunwei looked over there again, and sure enough, he saw an unusually tall Francophone man with an unknown animal tattooed on his chest. Liu Yunwei was slightly stunned, and whispered to Yuan Mingxuan: "Could it be that the Franc head man I met in the morning is the friend in the business outside the money clerk?" ”

Yuan Mingxuan nodded and said, "Very likely." ”

The two were talking in a whisper, and Zhao Bo came over and said, "Little general, the upper rooms of several generals are ready, everyone come with me, let's go and rest first." ”

Liu Yunwei smiled and said, "Then there is Uncle Lao Zhao." ”

So, everyone followed Zhao Bo towards the courtyard to the south. Before they had gone far, there was a sudden sound of firecrackers firing, and everyone was shocked, thinking that they had been attacked. I saw that Zhao Kaishan and Wen Poyu immediately blocked Liu Yunwei behind them, and put the weapons in their hands across their chests to prepare to defend against the enemy; Cheng Shiyong and Wu Xing protected Yuan Mingxuan, and Lu Ying bent his bow and arrows nervously to observe the left and right, ready to shoot the enemy at any time; Li Tianhao and Wang Gandang also drew their swords to look for the enemy, and dragged Zhao Bo behind them to protect them.

Everyone's actions frightened Uncle Zhao next to him, and at this time, there was a sound of firecrackers, but everyone still didn't find the enemy, but found that the people and guests around them were looking at them with surprised eyes, and everyone even heard some laughter.

Liu Yunwei also observed for a while, and found that there were no attackers, but many people were watching him, so he ordered everyone to lift their guards, and called Zhao Bo to his side, and asked, "Uncle Zhao, what happened to the voice just now?" Is there a fire gun in the manor? ”

Zhao Bo explained: "The little general doesn't know, we are doing business outside the sea, and for the sake of safety, it is indispensable to buy some firearms, in addition to some friends' guards and sailors, we will also bring some firearms to the village." And as long as these guards with firearms don't make trouble here, we are generally allowed to do so. ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized, thinking that their group had a misunderstanding, and they were treated as dirt buns by others, and everyone suddenly turned red.

Yuan Mingxuan, who was on the side, seemed to be interested, and said, "Then can Uncle Zhao take us over to have a look?" ”

Uncle Zhao nodded and said, "Naturally, no problem, please come with me." ”

Everyone followed Zhao Bo to a clearing next to the courtyard in the south, only to see more than a dozen wooden targets erected at the end of the clearing, several Zhuang Ding and a dozen Franco manifolds were practicing firearms, and Blanco Mello, the Franco man, who met Liu Yunwei and others in the morning, was also among them.
