Chapter 340: Temple of the God of War

At the end of the on-site meeting, because of the excellent view from the top of the cliff, you can overlook the entire Gondor City, since the establishment of the Lingyan Pavilion, it has been a good place for many old soldiers to visit and pay attention to the progress of the construction of Gondor City. Although the Lingyan Pavilion was not actually opened, it was still empty, there was no furniture, not even statues, scrolls, souvenirs, directories and other things, but this meaning alone moved many veterans and civil officials who had made great contributions in the history of Yunzhou. In the first batch of confirmed lists, there are Dai Ye and others who are now retired in the Dai family courtyard in Danyang.

Whether it is Yunzhou or Dongping, no one has ever done such a thing. But everyone thinks that Ye Tao is indeed such a person, he cares too much about everyone's life, life and dignity, for example, this time to attack Zhenzhou, everyone thinks it is a big victory, although it has paid nearly 30,000 casualties, resulting in the largest list of casualties since Ye Tao took over Yunzhou, but everyone thinks that it is worth it, it is an incredible victory. However, Ye Tao later wrote letters to the families of 300 meritorious fallen soldiers, and his intention to commit crimes was clearly on paper, and he also demanded that the commanders of the troops must visit the homes of the fallen soldiers from door to door, deliver the bereavement pensions, and asked local officials in various localities to properly settle the soldiers who were disabled in the war. All these provisions were later enacted as local ordinances in the name of Yunzhou Jinglufu and submitted to the imperial court for approval. The bereavement benefits due to those fallen soldiers who were alone were also deposited in the name of the fund, and the foundation formed by some veteran sergeants was properly managed to ensure the lives of the disabled soldiers in Yunzhou.

Ye Tao is to make himself feel a little at ease with his conscience, but the result is that Yunzhou is proud of being in the army, proud of defeating the enemy, and proud of dying on the battlefield. There are only more than fifty battalions of the main battle force, and it doesn't matter, at least they have to go into the garrison battalion. The garrison can't get in? No problem, I'll have to go to training camps everywhere. Only in this way can we ensure that when something happens, we can take our turn and come in handy when we want to mobilize. Now, in so many families up and down Yunzhou, there are by no means a few people who have this kind of thought.

It is precisely because of this fanatical atmosphere that in the Lingyan Pavilion, which has not yet been officially opened, there are already many old sergeants or other people who have visited here to leave cards with blessings, and later Guan Haishan specially ordered to put it on a wooden shelf, and half of it has been written. Since the Lingyan Pavilion is usually unattended, except for someone who will come to clean it every few days, there is no permanent management organization for the time being, but every time an old sergeant comes to visit, he will almost do a good job of cleaning. The air in Yunzhou is warm and suitable, and the air is fresh in this era, so there is not too much dust in the air. After a few strokes, the current Lingyan Pavilion can almost be said to be spotless.

"Big brother...... Let's open this place as soon as possible, although there will be some trouble, but the work here at the top of the mountain is over, and the eagle station and guard tower have been built, that is, for mooring the airship, there are still some adjustments. If this is opened, it should not affect the construction site on the ground. But after it was opened, it gave those heroic souls a place to live and those old soldiers a place to hang. Ye Tao looked at the appearance of Ling Yan Pavilion now, and was a little embarrassed.

"I never said I wouldn't open the Lingyan Pavilion." Guan Haishan glanced at Ye Tao and said, "It's just that you are delaying the progress." It doesn't matter what the furniture is, didn't you say you made the statues yourself? What about things? …… Also," Guan Haishan pointed to the façade facing the cliff and said, "Now this is a transparent glass façade, didn't you say that you want to make a stained glass façade?" I asked, the artwork you made has already been sent to the workshop, and the glass workshop has not been completed for two months? Or won't you send it to me when it's finished? After you finish this, Lingyan Pavilion can be opened at any time. Of course, Lingyan Pavilion must not be opened casually, there must be a ceremony, I don't know how to get this out, which master in the Jingluo Mansion do you want to make a statement? Now I have a lot of money in my hands, and Lingyan Pavilion is the finishing touch of the entire Gondor, and the cost of the entire ceremony is paid out of the construction funds of the Gondor City. ”

When Ye Tao heard this, he smiled embarrassedly and said, "The matter of the statue is my fault. When I turned around, I asked people to prepare the materials, and as soon as the materials arrived, I came over and finished them and went back. As for the funding of the ceremony...... How to say it, you are willing to pay this money, but in fact, neither you nor I am afraid that you are qualified for this. The old sergeant's foundation has already come to register, and they have come to organize the ceremony, just hoping that I will come forward to invite some guests and help with some transportation matters. Originally, they thought that Lingyan Pavilion would not be so fast, and it was estimated that it would be synchronized with the completion of Gondor City, and they were not in a hurry to raise funds. But some of the veteran sergeants who have been successful after retiring from the army are donating money in piles and piles. It is said that he has saved a lot of money. …… In this case, let's hurry up and put everything into place, and let's do this inauguration ceremony in half a year. By then, Gondor City should look even better......"

Guan Haishan tilted his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "It should be very good." The construction of Gondor was originally in the back, and there were too many details to be touched, and this was too gorgeous a city. ”

Ye Tao immediately clapped his hand and said, "Then it's decided." Suddenly, a message from an acquaintance appeared in the commemorative book that I flipped through casually, it was Gao Senqi.

Ye Tao hurriedly summoned the two people who managed the entry and exit of the platform on the top of the mountain cliff and asked about it. Gao Senqi was not too low-key, he took six guards to the top of the mountain together. And the management here has always been quite lax. Gao Senqi had only been here two or three days ago, and after that, he must have gone west.

"Takamori flag? What's the matter? Guan Haishan is not interested in these things at all, even if the Western Route Army attacks now, his construction site will definitely bear the brunt, and he will definitely have to stop work for a while. And Guan Haishan didn't even know who the young master of the Western Route Army was?

Ye Tao smiled and said, "Senior brother, this matter has nothing to do with you, just finish it quickly." With the addition of electricity, the construction of Gondor is even more complicated. And, at some point, you'll have something new to worry about how to add to the city. Everyone is looking forward to moving here. There are still a lot of interesting people in this world. …… I'll set up a telegraph station with you when you go back, and you can talk at any time, and you don't have to be so slow for messengers to go back and forth. ”

Guan Haishan nodded and didn't ask any further. Ye Tao is indeed completely different from what he focuses on, and he is still quite satisfied with the feeling of being able to focus on certain things. In particular, it is supported from all sides. He didn't care about politics anyway, and since Ye Tao didn't want to explain it to him, he was happy to be confused. However, in the future, it will not be so easy to let people go up to the top of this cliff. Guan Haishan decided to open the outpost and eagle station on the top of the cliff as soon as possible.

After chatting with Guan Haishan for about two hours, when the management personnel on the construction site began to impatiently ask Guan Haishan for instructions at the door of Lingyan Pavilion, but they were not sure whether to disturb Guan Haishan and Ye Tao, Guan Haishan stood up and said with a smile: "You can take care of yourself, I'll go on next." With that, he left.

At this time, Feng Hao, who was following Ye Tao, shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Do you want to send someone to check, what is Gao Senqi doing in Yunzhou?" ”

Ye Tao's brows furrowed, and his attention was focused on the end of Ling Yan Pavilion facing the gate. Actually, Guan Haishan also said that there was something missing, and Ye Tao hadn't prepared it here, that is, the pipe organ. Now the pipe organ specially made for Lingyan Pavilion is being tuned and is about to be shipped. And Lingyan Pavilion is indeed a little hollow because it lacks the statue of the god that should be in that position. On the shelves over there, on the cork boards, pasted, nailed, and those messages inserted in the gaps between the cards, all of them are the remembrance of comrades, the remembrance of comrades-in-arms, and the hard fonts of those warriors that are unique to the sword and axe, which make the atmosphere here rich. Indeed, these people are simple and straightforward, and they have no more ways to commemorate their friends and more ways to ease their thoughts than those civil officials. In a place like Yunzhou, where the character of martial artists dominates, a statue of the god of war may be more suitable. Sometimes, Ye Tao is inevitably a little dumbfounded. In the special atmosphere of Yunzhou, those civil officials who have always been gentle and elegant have now also acted vigorously and resolutely, and their style of doing things has changed greatly. Of course, perhaps this is also because of the performance appraisal methods and strategic management tools of the balanced scorecard now deployed in Yunzhou, so that everyone has a difference in the positioning of their respective identities, no longer a literati and a martial artist, but: Yunzhou people!

Just like the words written by Gao Senqi in the commemorative book: "I will fight with you, I am willing to fight with you, what a blessing in this life!" "This is a message from a general who has just been restrained and retreated from the battlefield of Zhenbei Pass, he is still a good opponent, because he has seen the combat power of the Tianxuan Army, the Forbidden Army and the elite soldiers of Zhenbei Pass that can be compared with the combat power of the Yunzhou army, he has his own goals, and he is still studying his opponent.

"Ye Jingluo!" Feng Hao reminded.

"Naturally, the investigation is to be investigated, but after tracking the whereabouts of Gao Senqi and his party, if the other party does not spy on the important places of our army, they will not take any action. You can send someone to ask if Gao Senqi has anything you want to talk to me about. If there is, I will wait for him at the lodge. Ye Tao said categorically.

"Yes......" Feng Hao smiled. Ye Tao also wanted a good opponent, it turns out that this guy is also competitive......
