For the establishment of the engineering battalion, Liu Huayun had already conceived for a long time, and this time there happened to be free coolies, but there was no need to use it in vain.

In order to facilitate management, more than 100 young and strong people in the Yulu garrison, at his suggestion, were also transferred to the engineering battalion, under the command of Xie Yuan and the deputy commander Shi Dispatch.

Of course, this is just because there were not too many people needed at the beginning, and Liu Huayun was not afraid of them running away;

Because once they escape, these people will not only be wanted all over the world, but also lose a very good job.

In the future, when the world is peaceful, there is no war outside, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

All the garrisons in Dafeng add up to nearly 700,000 soldiers, and it is impossible to eat the emperor's food all the time, and more and more young people will be incorporated into the engineering battalion in the future.

They are needed to build bridges and pave roads, open mountains and mines, etc., and this is called the million-strong division to engage in infrastructure construction in their spare time, and if there is a foreign enemy, they can directly take up arms to exterminate them.

As for the grain and property looted by the Ming king's rebels, they were all used as military salaries, and the boats were distributed back to the fishermen in the nearby villages.

"Brother He Jin, the elite sons and daughters of the two places are here, why don't we select a few thousand people to be incorporated into the musket battalion......"

"Yes, Brother Liu's words are exactly what I want."

More than a month has passed, and there must have been thousands of muskets in the Shenji Battalion;

Due to the need to prepare for the construction of the musket battalion, Liu Huayun discussed with Ji Xiaolan and He Jin, and selected 4,000 people from the more than 30,000 garrisons in Yulu and Lu;

Let them bring enough food and grass, and under the leadership of Yue Tianyou, the commander of the right forward of the musket battalion, they will rush to the capital tomorrow.

At the beginning, Liu Huayun promised to let Lu Feng serve as the commander of the left forward, commanding the five thousand erlang, Yue Tianyou was appreciated for his performance last night, so he was appointed by He Jin as the commander of the right forward;

At that time, Li Lianglu, Wei Kai and others will be able to take charge of tens of thousands of people in the Chinese army.

"Mo will see Lord Liu, see His Royal Highness the Prince."

The shrewd and capable Xie Yuan, a simple-looking stone, originally wanted to join the Yang family's army and be satisfied as a small soldier.

Neither of them expected to participate in a battle of extermination, and they were favored by Lord Liu and His Royal Highness the Prince, and they directly became thousands and hundreds of households; When he was summoned, his face was full of excitement, and he bowed to the end.

"Get up, you can go back and tidy up now, and set off for Jinan early tomorrow morning......"

He Jin smiled and waved his hand, and after accepting the visit of the commanders of the garrisons of the two places, he announced the start of the celebration banquet with Liu Huayun and Ji Xiaolan.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, the 30,000 troops drawn from Yulu and Lu, except for the 4,000 who were about to enter Beijing, had already drawn their camps and rushed back to their stations.

The cavalry of the Yang family's army, Lu Feng, Bi Sheng and other musket battalion langs, protected the prince He Jin and the lord of the Qincha Ji Xiaolan rushed to Jinan first;

The 400 newly formed engineering battalion soldiers of Xie Yuan and Shishi, because they had no horses, had to slowly pull out the camp and move forward like thousands of musket battalion soldiers, and then joined Liu Huayun after arriving in Jinan.

Liangshan Shui Village is less than 300 miles away from Jinan, the horses are shaking layers of dust on the official road, and in the evening, everyone has rushed to the outside of Jinan.

"See the prince for the ministers, see Lord Qincha, and see the master of the horse!"

Because the newly appointed commander of the Shandong garrison accompanied the army, Admiral Xu Yun needed to govern Henan for some time recently;

As the largest official in Jinan, Yin You Jiliang heard that the prince was coming, and hurriedly took his servants out of the city to greet him.

"You don't need to be polite."

It was getting late today, and he had to wait until tomorrow to find a ferry to return to the capital, He Jin waved his hand and motioned for everyone to go into the city.

"Lord You, have you ever seen my three thousand people from Zhejiang Province?"

At the beginning, Liu Huayun asked Li Lianglu, Wei Kai and others to go to the capital, and the calculation time has been more than a month, even if the walking is slow, plus the delay in crossing the Yellow River, it must be almost to the capital;

Out of concern for the deployment of his men, he couldn't help but ask.

"Master Ma, what you are talking about is General Li Lianglu and them, General Li and they are probably in the future of the economy in ten days, and they must have left the Shandong boundary by now......"

Liu Huayun has a noble status, and when he asked, You Jiliang didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly said everything he knew.

"Oh, that's good."

nodded clearly, and after entering the city, Ji Xiaolan did the work of arranging for the Yang family army to camp and repair, while Liu Huayun and He Jin took a carriage, accompanied by Lu Feng and others, and went to the Linhu Inn in the city.

At the beginning, I passed through Jinan twice, although I was in a hurry;

But because of the sentence in his previous life, "Your Majesty, do you remember the summer rain lotus on the shore of Daming Lake that year?" And Liu Huayun, who was deeply impressed by the Linhu Inn, asked Liu Quankui and others to stay here and wait for him after they came to Jinan.

Under the sunset, the green willows swaying and rippling blue waves, the bluestone arch bridge and jade masonry carvings, the scenery of Daming Lake is also pleasant.

He Jin, who lifted the curtain to watch, had a comfortable smile on his face, while Liu Huayun was thinking about how to extract crude oil, and before he knew it, the carriage had stopped in front of the antique inn.

"Master, you're finally here."

Liu Quankui, Zhang Falin, Ma Liang and others, who have been living in the Linhu Inn for more than half a month, and are almost exhausted, look at the door every day;

After seeing Liu Huayun, who had not been seen for a long time, he was so excited that he almost burst into tears, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince behind him didn't notice it.

"Brothers, your idle days are over, have a good rest tonight, you will start to be busy from tomorrow......"

Although we know that the Jinan section of the Shengli Oilfield is in the territory of Jiyang, which is northeast of the city, there is no obvious architectural reference in Dafeng, and we can only look for it according to the topography of the depression.

In addition, to extract underground crude oil, it is not possible to dig by manpower alone, it is necessary to get out the power generation equipment and drilling rigs, and after drilling the oil, it is necessary to build fireproof and waterproof factories nearby;

As a result, the various components of firing cement and building generators need to be put on the agenda, so Liu Huayun smiled and said.

"Don't worry, sir, I won't let you down."

Liu Quankui and the others agreed, and they all patted their chests and promised.

Standing on the second floor of the Linhu Inn, pushing open the window, you can see the sparkling Daming Lake in the distance, and the talented and beautiful women and literati who come and go in the stone bridge pavilion, and you are unconsciously relaxed.

He Jin likes the environment here very much, and he also wants to live there for a long time, so Liu Huayun wrapped up the entire backyard of the inn;

Of course, Lu Feng and a few Ouchi masters who were following and protecting them had to live together.

"Jin'er, you go back to the capital with Brother Ji the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back in the last month or so; Ruoxi, Tingting, Wan'er, they will ask you to take care of ......"

A thousand people crossed the river with chariots and horses, and even if all the ferries on both sides of the Yellow River were gathered, it would take at least one day, so Ji Xiaolan still needed to stay in Jinan City tomorrow;

At night, after dinner, in the upper room of the inn with flickering candlelight, Liu Huayun took He Jin's jade hand and whispered in her ear.
