Chapter 247: Attachment and Site Selection (Text)

After a long period of secret captivity and polishing, I finally got the news that the almost forgotten captive, Wu IJ, had asked for a meeting. I seem to see an option for a general's loyalty to drop to a critical point.

The change in Hong Kong City has been decided, and the forces behind Wu IJ and them have no possibility of turning over, even if I let him out, it is estimated that he will not be able to go back, but he will be regarded as an outcast and a traitor by his past subordination, and it is more likely that he will be destroyed.

After all, the objects he was ordered to defend and take care of were all killed in the chaos, but he disappeared for a long time and returned with his whole body, what this means, naturally it is self-evident.

It is said that he is also a descendant of the northerners, and he was recommended to Guangfu with excellent results in the local town and military performance, and then was supported by a certain high-ranking magnate in school.

In the post of the soldiers and horses of Jinghu Road, he not only repeatedly pacified the local barbarian rebellion, but also defeated the three towns subordinate to the Northern Dynasty at Qingliuguan, and even rushed to kill the Northern Dynasty's name, Xiangfan observed the envoy's banner, and came to Guangfu to prepare for the promotion of the deputy envoy of the Shunde army with merit.

This time, in order to escort some of the gilded parties in front of the army, he was specially dispatched to lead an elite group of men and horses as a veteran in the army, as a backing and a foolproof plan.

The cause and effect of this story, after being investigated, made me sigh, this is the so-called historical character of the same name, even after the change of the times, is it a different time and space version of gold that will shine.

It's just that this time, he didn't have my luck and freedom to be outside the system, so in the rebellion of Hong Kong City, he also stood on the opposite side of me, and almost lost his cronies and subordinates, as well as the objects that needed to be taken care of, and had to bear the corresponding bitter consequences for the failed tasks and responsibilities as a prisoner.

It's just that it took him so long to figure it out, and I'm slightly disappointed.

This white-headed general has a very good command of traditional military formations. My hand-to-hand combat unit, after the Wind Roll Banner was transferred to the battalion officer, just needed such a person.

I don't know if it's good or not,

He looked sloppy with a beard, he became thinner, and his head was a little whiter, and it was evident that this time was not very good, and I did not isolate myself from the inside and outside, but sent a copy of the house and the text into it from time to time.

"Do you want me to die for you......"

He said in a hoarse voice

"No, no, you may still have some value before......"

I shook my head slightly with regret.

"Now, it's not necessarily the time has passed......

"I am now the seventh general of the new army of the imperial court...... The head of the Mubi University Hall"

I looked at him for a long time, and there was an indescribable playfulness in my tone

"Whether it's a promising young recruit or a veteran active general, some people want to join their command...... Take your pick."

"What do you think I have to do to continue to appoint you, a person with a suspicious background and a historical stain......"

"Since ......"

He slowly calmed down, but unconsciously, his tone and attitude changed slightly.

"You left me, a lonely ghost, instead of handing it over to Youji Faluo,"

"There must still be some useful ......"

"Not bad...... I like talking to smart people the most."

I nodded

"I want to hear from my family......"

"Do you still have family to worry about......

I was surprised

"I thought you were alone, so you refused to speak......"

"It's just an orphan entrusted to my care...... It's not well known."

"I see......"

I held my chin and bowed my head

"You're already a dead man, though......"

"If you dare to show up again, I'm afraid that you will leave the rest of your family behind......"

"So I can only ask for your mercy and find people to shelter for a moment or two......"

"I don't dare to expect too much, as long as I can occasionally secretly watch them well......"

"After this wish is completed, I will be driven by this body and repay with all my might......"

"Is it as simple as that...... I'm not afraid that I'll take the opportunity to blackmail you with more things."

I looked at him with some amusement.

"A certain family has nothing else, presumably the nobles take a fancy to it, but a little experience and experience in the battle array

"The rest is at your disposal......"

Soon after, I was standing with him on the top floor of a restaurant on the edge of the Borneo Guild Hall, and I could see a pulp shop and its small backyard.

Looking at the figure who was busy in front of the well platform in the small courtyard, he didn't speak for a long time, but the expression on his face changed again and again, as if he was indulging in some kind of circulating memories and feelings.

"You can go up and recognize each other......"

I'm trying to figure out if this is a sad or tangled story.

"There's no need to involve them anymore......"

Then he turned his head, and his voice was a little astringent

"Wu IJ has seen the lord ......"

"You'd better change your name to Wu Jie,"

Special commemoration of a certain self-proclaimed three views are particularly right, has changed the evil and returned to the right, and does not casually send bento novels

"In the new army, I can't use you for the time being......"

"But you can be my new elector, and you can practice another part in the left middle of the Longzhou regiment."

"I'll lead the team to Yizhou in the future, huh. Take the opportunity to act ......"

"Obey ......"

After that, I continued to be busy with the affairs of the new army, as if I had entered the fast lane of great development.

Of course, things cannot be smooth sailing, and as a model new army that the imperial court pays attention to and values, those traditional bureaucrats certainly dare not slack off in the slightest.

Especially among them, some people who have the habit of being reserved and ugly, whose inexplicable house was smashed and covered in bruises, and after being unable to cope with official business, they worked as if they had been lubricated and operated with all their might.

Like quilts, shoes, socks, clothes and hats, tents, blankets, leather goods, flints, grain, and other ordinary baggage materials, everything is needed, and they are openly supplied.

Ordinary scepters and armor are also good to say, although they are not as good as other Liu Waijun generals, but at least according to the head of the people assigned to us are in accordance with the standards of the imperial army, matching armor collar hats, helmets, liners, flannel, robes, cloaks, hangers, soldiers' knives, axes, guns, non-commissioned officers' silver cross-knives, officers' swords, everything is available, even if we are firearms.

However, in other aspects, the difference in treatment between 369 and so on is prominent, for example: the same troops who use firearms, others receive prepared gunpowder, and we get the raw materials of saltpeter and sulfur.

The other party also smiled and explained to the people I sent that this was a specially designated purpose in the Divine Machine Army, and it really couldn't take care of us.

As for the petition for the reinforcement of firearms other than the firearms, it was even more invisible, and the submission for the rationing of artillery carriages was directly rejected on the grounds that there was an overlap in the existing duties.

So he retreated and asked for a batch of fire oil bombs or fire thunder bombs, but what he got was that it was not easy to produce, and all production quotas had been given priority, and they had to be sorted out for reasons that would be left for a few years.

Even if I ask someone to dredge and stuff money, it won't work, and some people even say strange things because of this, "People still bring the source of the Fifth Army, or the cover of the Chinese and foreign armies, how can you be such a new miscellaneous stream...... Coveted and comparable"

Of course, the person who dared to say this had already fallen into the water the next day drunken and drowned, but the situation we faced did not change much.

Then the familiar Guo commander sent someone to pass a few words to me, which probably means that several chief officers in the Shenji army who block the circle attach great importance to the left forward general from the headquarters, and spare no effort to support them, so the other people have to stand aside for the time being, especially those like us who have hidden competition.

Okay, I have to take a break for the time being, at least I haven't fought with one of the five armies at this stage, a behemoth like the Shenji Army, the confidence and strength of the superior, can give those pawns who stand up a lesson, don't dare to act recklessly, that is, the limit of accepting it when it is good.

However, although I was in another respect, I received good news as compensation, and Mrs. Chen sent me an address on the chart, which was a little compensation for my frustration in my quest.

Prison Gate Island was once a legendary and murderous place in the city of Canton.

The original name of the island is no longer known, close to the waterway, not too far from Canton, not too far from the next day's boat, and surrounded by cliffs and reefs, but the island is quite open and full of wooded vegetation.

It was once used as a large prison for felons by the Nanhai Governor's Office, and then followed by the Southern Dynasties, with thousands of people imprisoned on the island at most, digging mountains and rocks, and cultivating melons, vegetables and fruit forests.

Around the island, the so-called fierce winds and waves, and the undercurrents are surging, and only lighter small boats can land from the slower terrain, so it is almost a desperate island, and there is no danger of escaping.

But a sea dragon tumbling (undersea earthquake) decades ago changed the terrain, cracking into several wide waterways in the rocks of the reef near the shore.

It is also rumored that the prisoners on the island took the opportunity to escape, killed all the jailers and seized weapons for themselves, and the imperial court sent troops to slaughter the prisoners on the island.

Because of this sea dragon turnover, Guangfu has been shocked, but the citizens are not harmed at home, and the real damage is the scope of the island, so it is also regarded as an ominous omen of God's anger, and it is said that God does not like this place as a prison, and completely destroys it.

Then there was the change of course and the relocation of people in the vicinity, which was abandoned for many years.

To this day, there are rumors of hauntings at the site, and of course, I believe that it is the smugglers who berth at night, all kinds of pretending to be ghosts.

Not to mention any bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, as soon as the blood and evil qi of thousands of soldiers stationed down, I don't believe that there is anything else to hide, not to mention that there is a foundation for self-sufficient sugar cane fields and fruit forests on the island.

My boat group no longer has to brave the risk of wind and waves, and it is enough to dock in the open sea for a long time to carry out ant moving-style transportation.
