Chapter 473: The Young Lord Was Taken Away

Don't look at the manual water extraction of crude oil is very primitive, probably because the crude oil in this well is buried at a shallow depth, and the collection speed is not slow. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Moreover, Feng Yunshan also asked the young and strong to take turns to collect, and it was very labor-saving to use the pulley group, a group of 10 people, four groups of people took turns to work every day, and the oil was extracted 24 hours a day, so that 6,000 catties of crude oil were collected all day. Feng Yunshan calculated that it is equivalent to producing 2.2 million catties a year, which seems to be a lot, but the output unit converted into future generations is 1,100 tons of crude oil.

It's still too little! Feng Yunshan remembers that when he worked in the largest oil refinery in the country, the refining processing capacity in a single day was more than 70,000 tons, and a random ship was 300,000 tons.

Feng Yunshan ordered 500 soldiers of the Capture Army to be stationed in Xiangzhou Town to protect the only oil field in the Holy Country. Zhang Dashan, the mayor of Xiangzhou Town, and Feng Yunshan simply appointed him as the deputy county magistrate of Fengyi Tuzhou and the mayor of Xiangzhou Town, and was fully responsible for the cooperation of oil production in the oilfield.

The two directors of the Ministry of Public Works were appointed as the director and deputy director of the Xiangzhou Oilfield Oil Production Plant, and together with several deacons of the Ministry of Public Works, they were retained to manage the oil production of the oilfield.

Feng Yunshan also asked them to build a clay kiln for firing ceramics nearby, which was specially used to fire clay pots for holding crude oil, and ordered the Liangguang Ocean Shipping Company to send ships to Nanning and hire small boats to go up the river to transport the crude oil contained in the clay pots back to Guangzhou.

After they were done, Feng Yunshan ordered them to dig another crypt two or three miles away to try to discover new oil wells. This well alone is too little to produce.

Feng Yunshan thought that there were seven and eight oil wells, which could produce more than twenty or thirty tons a day, and in a year, there were 10,000 tons, which was barely enough.

But he forgot that in this era, there can be 10,000 tons, that is, 20 million catties, which is already an incredible output.

Two days later, Feng Yunshan led everyone to rush back to Nanning in a horse-drawn carriage, and also brought the crude oil collected in the past two days to be transported back to Guangzhou.

I just arrived in Nanning City, and I was preparing to rest for a day before leaving.

Fan Ruzeng hurriedly came to report a message: "Holy King, the urgent news from Guangzhou from the Secret Service Division is that the young master is missing!" ”

Feng Yunshan was taken aback: "What's wrong with the Gui Fang?" What's going on? Tell me carefully for this king! ”

"Ten days ago, the young lord sneaked out of the palace, and it wasn't until Princess Su asked that the servants and guards of the palace found that they hadn't seen the young lord for two or three days, and Princess Cheng's sister Lingbei girl was missing at the same time. Princess Cheng ordered to break open the boudoir of the Lingbei girl and found a letter left behind, saying that she was taking the young master to Huaxian's hometown to pay tribute to the young master's dead mother, Liao Wangniang. Fan Ruzeng hurriedly reported.

"Princess Su called the Minister of Police Hu Damei, and immediately took people to personally rush to the Holy King's hometown, Huaxian He, but she didn't find the young master and Miss Cheng. Minister Hu mobilized thousands of police officers to search everywhere, but they found nothing. Later, after inquiry, someone said that on the official road leading from Huaxian County to Fogang, he saw a girl and a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, who were tied up in a carriage by more than ten strong men and taken away. Fan Ruzeng reported.

"So, both Guifang and that girl in Lingbei were taken away by thieves?" Feng Yunshan frowned, worried: These thieves must have come at him to catch his son. Cheng Lingbei has been taking care of Feng Guifang, and he should have kindly sent him to worship his mother. Looking at this situation, the thief must have been squatting in Huaxian County for a long time, and carefully designed to take Feng Guifang away, wanting to catch up and rescue him, but there was little hope.

"Holy King, the Secret Service Department is derelict in its duties, its subordinates are derelict in their duties, and I ask the Holy King to punish the crime!" Fan Ruzeng knelt on the ground: "According to the analysis of the duties, it is either the Manchu Qing Dynasty, or the assignment from Tianjing, and it is more likely to be from Tianjing." This will mobilize all the forces of the Secret Service Department to rescue the young master at any cost! ”

"Forget it, you follow this king to Yunan, I can't blame you, and I can't blame the eldest sister! As for saving people, the other party has done everything possible to kidnap the deceased party, and it must be strictly guarded, how can it be easy for you to rescue it? Feng Yunshan smiled bitterly: "The thief uses this kind of conspiracy and tricks to go all the way to catch the Gui Fang, he must want to blackmail this king, and before he achieves his goal, he should not hurt the life of the Gui Fang!" I'm afraid that I will torture the prescription and make this child suffer. ”

Although he can't replace all of the original Feng Yunshan, and emotionally he can't treat Feng Qifang as his own son, but thinking that this child has suffered a lot since he was a child, and he finally found himself, and he enjoyed a year of happiness, and then suffered this catastrophe again, Feng Yunshan couldn't help but feel a little sad for him.

At the same time, he was furious in his heart! Whoever does this, he will make the other party pay a heavy price!

"Pass the order and rush back to Guangzhou immediately!" Feng Yunshan ordered: "Order the Ministry of Police to mobilize the police divisions and police officers of all state capitals to inspect the intersections of all major official roads bordering the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and search them with all their might!" Your secret service department is also doing your best to investigate the news, and the special preparation is to enter the area around Tianjing City. ”

"Yes, Holy King!"

Feng Yunshan asked hundreds of soldiers of the captive army to return to Yunan to report to Luo Qiongshu, and he and the others, accompanied by the palace guards, immediately set off and took a boat to Guangzhou.

……

On the quarry wharf fifteen or sixteen miles north of Dangtu City, Anman Taiping Mansion, Shi Dakai, the king of wings, led more than ten brothers of the same clan, including Shi Xiangzhen, Shi Zhenlun, Shi Fengkui, Shi Zhengang, Shi Mingkai, Shi Zhenji, Shi Zhengao, and Shi Zhenqi, led more than 2,000 Taiping soldiers to board more than 50 warships, preparing to cross the Yangtze River and attack Hezhou City and Hanshan County, which were occupied by the Qing demons on the opposite side.

A few days ago, the winged king Shi Dakai and the northern king Wei Changhui assisted Yang Xiuqing in defeating Xiangrong's Jiangnan battalion, and allocated all their newly recruited 2,000 soldiers to Yang Xiuqing's brother Yang Fuqing, finally in exchange for a chance to go on an expedition, and moreover, it was next to Hezhou and Hanshan in Tianjing City.

But even so, Shi Dakai and a group of brothers of the same clan are also full of joy, out of the cage-like Tianjing City, they don't have to live under the increasingly arrogant and power-hungry oppression of the East King all the time, they all have a kind of joy that the sky is high and the birds fly.

"Order, hoist the sails and send troops!" Shi Dakai looked at the other side, in the night, it was dark, but his heart was hot.

After so many years of hard work, I finally waited for the opportunity.

He was well aware of the development of Feng Yunshan, the king of the south, and even every month, he tried to ask someone to find the "Nanfang Daily" published in Guangzhou, and read every word on it several times, even though it was the newspaper of the previous month or even the previous two months.

The king of the south has abolished the king of the south and proclaimed himself the holy king, unwilling to live below the king of heaven and the king of the east. Now that there are two or three hundred thousand soldiers, its momentum has been achieved, and it is not afraid of the king of heaven at all.

Now that I have the opportunity to leave Tianjing, it's time to go to the Holy King!

According to Shi Dakai's plan, it was to capture Hezhou and Hanshan first, and then expand his troops, and he believed that with his training and governance capabilities, even if he started from scratch, he could form an elite army. Then, he led this elite army to conquer Luzhou and Lu'an all the way, entered Mubei, and made peace with the Holy King's captive army.

Preferably, you can capture Wuchang and give this city as a gift to the Holy King!

……

A day later, in the yamen of the prefect of Luzhou City, Li Hongzhang and several brothers were worried about the illness of their father Li Wen'an, who was in Chaohu.

Suddenly, a military order from the front came to report, saying that Shi Dakai, the winged king of the long-haired thief soldiers, led more than 2,000 people across the Yangtze River to attack Hezhou.

Li Hongzhang was furious: More than 2,000 people came to attack, and 1,500 people in Hezhou City couldn't defend the city? It just so happened that it was not his way to the state guard, but a confidant of Zhang Guangdi, the same governor of Luzhou Prefecture, who refused to buy his account, so Li Hongzhang did not send troops to support in order to inspire the courage of the defenders.

As a result, within two days, he received news: the Hezhou guard would abandon the city and flee to Fengyang Mansion. Although the Hanshan defender did not escape, he was defeated by the long-haired thieves, and the county seat of Hanshan was conquered in one day.

Moreover, Shi Dakai's troops have increased to more than 3,000 people, and the soldiers have approached Chao County, and it seems that Chao County can't hold it, and, most importantly, Li Hongzhang's father Li Wen'an is in Chao County.
