With Xie Shangzheng's play, Cao Wenzhao obviously didn't have too much intention to drink.
Back in the house, he accompanied Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong for two or three rounds of drinking, and Cao Wenzhao said with some embarrassment: "Li Shuai, Chen Shuai, hey...... It's a mess. When he has time in the future, if Li Shuai and Chen Shuai can go to my old Cao's Datong hometown, my old Cao will sweep the couch to greet him, and I must accompany Li Shuai and Chen Shuai to have a good drink! But today ......"
Chen Zhongdeng was a little unhappy again.
This surnamed Cao, he and Li Yuanqing have already helped him level the field, how can this guy still be like a monkey with garlic in his buttocks, so unconfident?
But before Chen Zhong could speak, Li Yuanqing had already gently tugged at the placket of his clothes, and said to Cao Wenzhao with a smile: "Brother Cao, since Brother Cao has a choice, then Yuanqing will not persuade him more." As the old saying goes, water is the sweetness of the hometown, and the moon is the brightness of the hometown. There are no people here, there is a place to keep people. Come! Brother Cao, let's drink this cup to the fullest. Yuanqing is here, I wish Brother Cao a smooth sailing and all his wishes come true on the road in the future! β
"Li Shuai ......"
Tears flashed in Cao Wenzhao's eyes.
Although Li Yuanqing's words seemed a little erratic, they spoke to his heart.
Without this experience and experience, who can understand the hardships of the lowest mud legs in the military system?
Especially~,It's not a mess of lifeγIt's a mud leg that wants to continue to go up......
Chen Zhong also understood what Li Yuanqing meant at this time, and he hurriedly picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "Come, Yuanqing, Lao Cao, it's done!" β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Cao Wenzhao left quickly, but Chen Zhong was still a little unhappy.
The two brothers lit a cigar one by one, and Chen Zhong said with some doubts: "Yuanqing, this Cao Wenzhao is just a few." In my opinion, when the Jingshi guarded the battle, most of his exploits were exaggerated. If you can't hold on to such a thing, how can you talk about commanding thousands of troops and horses to kill the enemy? Yuanqing, why are you so polite to him? β
Li Yuanqing let out a long breath of turbidity, and smiled a little miserably: "Big brother, actually...... The same cannot be said for that. A penny is hard to beat a hero. Cao Wenzhao is difficult at this time. However, this person is very measured in his way of dealing with the world. At this time, it is just a bad luck. It's not a bad thing that he wants to change his environment now. β
Saying that, Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Big brother, believe it or not, within five years, this Cao Wenzhao will have a chance!" Do you dare to make a bet with me? β
"Bet?"
Chen Zhong's eyes couldn't help but widen.
He already understood what Li Yuanqing meant at this time, but he knew Li Yuanqing's knowledge of people more deeply, so how could he bet with Li Yuanqing.
After a moment, he hurriedly shook his head like a rattle, "Yuanqing, I won't bet with you." Fuck it, bet you, I don't remember I won. By the way, Yuan Qing, Yuan Manzi is normal today, tomorrow, how should we arrange it? β
Li Yuanqing took a deep breath of his cigar and slowly exhaled a puff of thick mist, "Big brother, I guess that Yuan Manzi is not a drunkard." It was not easy for him to come to Immortal Island once, and it was impossible for him to leave immediately. We must be prepared for a protracted war. By the way, big brother, there is one more thing. β
As he spoke, Li Yuanqing attached himself to Chen Zhong's ear and whispered a few words in a low voice.
When Chen Zhong heard this, his brows couldn't help frowning, and after a moment, he nodded heavily and said, "Yuanqing, don't worry about this, I will send someone to do it overnight." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Today is the first day that Inspector Yuan has come, and he has set up his station on the dock, and Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong can't go back to the official hall to rest, so they will also spend the night in the office on this side of the dock.
Of course, the brothers still sleep in the same room.
This is also Chen Zhong's strong request, even if he is no longer snoring at this time, but the sleeping position is still not flattering.
Lying on the very kind earthen kang, on the side, Chen Zhong had already slept like a dead pig.
This guy.
Maybe it's because Li Yuanqing is by his side, he is down-to-earth enough and doesn't pay much attention to it at all, but Li Yuanqing can't sleep for a long time when he looks at the lonely stars in the night sky through the gap in the window eaves.
Cao Wenzhao's disheartenedness, to a large extent, is a wake-up call that is by no means a small one.
It's a pity that 'I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain'.
Cao Wenzhao is still too humble at this time......
And the more amiable Inspector Yuan became, the more aggravated the sense of crisis in Li Yuanqing's heart, just ...... Li Yuanqing has no one to tell the secret.
At this time, Li Yuanqing also became more and more aware of the classic words of the great writer of Zhao and Song Dynasty back then: "I want to return by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu." It's too cold to be in high places! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Early in the morning of the next day, Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong had already gotten up, had a brief activity, and respectfully came to Inspector Yuan's tent to listen to it.
Inspector Yuan got up very early, and before the hour, that is, at about half past six, he had already packed up, wearing a luxurious python robe and jade belt, and appeared in front of Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong in high spirits.
Then again.
At this time, although everyone is an endless contradiction between the enemy and me, but~, but whoever can be in this position at this time, who is a mediocre talent?
Seeing the etiquette in a regular manner, Li Yuanqing smiled humbly: "Governor, you can arrange today's itinerary." β
Inspector Yuan smiled faintly: "Li Junmen, this official has heard for a long time that there are several immortal mountain treasures on Changsheng Island. If Li Junmen and Chen Junmen have time, are they willing to accompany their officials to climb the heights and look far? β
It is almost no secret that Inspector Yuan likes to climb mountains in his spare time.
However, Li Yuanqing didn't expect that Inspector Yuan did not propose to go to the urban area of Changsheng Island, but directly chose to go mountaineering.
On the side, Chen Zhong was obviously stunned.
But in a moment, Li Yuanqing had already reacted, and said with a respectful smile: "I am willing to serve the governor." β
Inspector Yuan also relaxed his attitude at this time, and laughed and said, "Li Junmen, you are the head snake of Changsheng Island. It's up to you to decide which mountain to climb. β
"Yes."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Although Inspector Yuan gave the location of the mountaineering to Li Yuanqing and asked Li Yuanqing to arrange it, Li Yuanqing was very clear that Inspector Yuan had already made a choice.
When he came to Changsheng Island, even if he was generous, how could he not go to the city?
Even if it's a formality.
After Inspector Yuan had breakfast here, Li Yuanqing had already prepared, and today, the mountain that Inspector Yuan was going to climb was the small mountain range on the southwest side of the city where you could overlook the entire city.
The original name of this small mountain range is unknown.
But since Li Yuanqing occupied Changsheng Island, because there are many ashes of the fallen sons, are buried on the sunny side of this mountain, and the pines and cypresses on the mountain are very verdant, the people on the island have always called this mountain range Xiaoqingshan, the highest peak of Xiaoqingshan, called 'Zhongyi Peak'.
The origin of this name is taken from a famous sentence of the great Manchu poet Gong Zizhen who Li Yuanqing came to the scene at his fingertips: "Loyal bones are buried everywhere in Qingshan, why should the horse leather shroud be returned?" β
Zhongyi Peak is not too high, even if you climb to the top and come down, it won't take a whole day.
Li Yuanqing also made plans in advance, vacating a military camp on the southwest side of the city, leaving it for Yuan to be stationed in the evening after he climbed the mountain.
Of course, rules cannot be broken.
Even if it is Inspector Yuan, after entering the city, he can only carry 500 personal soldiers.
Inspector Yuan was in high spirits today, and the group did not take a carriage, but rode directly on horseback, along the cement avenue, bypassing the city, and came directly to Xiaoqingshan.
On the sunny side of Xiaoqingshan, except for the burial place of the children, the regular bluestone steps and temples have been built, and other places are still uncivilized land, and there are no roads.
Inspector Yuan was very interested in such a grand burial place for soldiers built by Li Yuanqing, and did not go directly to the best place to climb the peak of Zhongyi Peak, but first went to the Zhongyi Temple where the sons and daughters buried their bones, and put a stick of incense on the sons and daughters who died in these years, and then directly turned from the mountain and climbed the Zhongyi Peak.
At this time, although Inspector Yuan was already in his forties, looking dry and thin, and he was dark, thin and short, his physical strength was really good.
Before noon, it only took a little more than an hour, and the group had climbed to the top of Zhongyi Peak.
On the top of the mountain, the cold sea breeze is howling, the strange rocks are craggy, and the weather is excellent today, and the field of vision is extremely wide. Not only can you have an overview of the entire urban area of Changsheng Island, but also the Nanxinkou on the opposite bank, as well as the armory workshop and horse farm on the northwest side.
Inspector Yuan's mood is also excellent.
Since he reached the top of the mountain, a smile has been on his face, and it is obvious that he is quite satisfied with Li Yuanqing's arrangement.
It's just that on the top of the mountain, in terms of food, you can't pay too much attention to it.
But Inspector Yuan didn't mind, even if it was just cold sauce mutton and wine, he was very happy to eat.
Sitting on an extremely flat and smooth boulder that had been weathered, Inspector Yuan took a sip of the glass of Chinese wine, looked at the figures surging back and forth like ants in the streets under the mountain, and said with a smile: "Li Junmen, now, how many people are there on Changsheng Island?" β
Li Yuanqing had already prepared, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Reply to the words of the governor." At this time, there are more than 70,000 households in Dingkou on Changsheng Island, with a population of more than 200,000, and if you add the population in the customs this year, as well as the merchants and helpers who are resident on the island, there are about 300,000 people. β
Although what Li Yuanqing said about this overall figure is similar to the facts, Li Yuanqing has taken a lot of ingenuity in it.
In fact, at this time, the population of the urban area of Changsheng Island alone has steadily exceeded 300,000.
Not to mention, the more than 70,000 Dingkou on the first line of Yangguanbao, as well as many villages and strongholds along the Nanxinkou and Jinfu lines.
Even if Inspector Yuan was the governor of Jiliao and Li Yuanqing's direct boss, at this juncture, he didn't dare to blatantly check his Li Yuanqing's account.
There is a truth in the truth, and there is truth in the false.
Inspector Yuan couldn't figure out the details of Li Yuanqing for a while, but this number was about the same as Inspector Yuan expected, he was very satisfied with Li Yuanqing's answer, but he sighed deeply: "Li Junmen, they are all seaside cities, but ~, the general situation of the urban area of Changsheng Island is much better than that of Ningyuan City." β
"The governor has been too modest. Changsheng Island can have today, and the strong support of Liaoxi is absolutely inseparable. Li Yuanqing hurriedly and humbly arched his hand.
Who doesn't know that Ning Yuancheng was built by his Yuan Inspector, and it was his Yuan Supervisor's life~ root?
At this time, Li Yuanqing naturally would not be arrogant enough to worry about the benefits of this lip service with Inspector Yuan.
Inspector Yuan nodded slowly, and said, "Li Junmen, there is one thing, this official is a little confused. This Changsheng Island city is so big, why doesn't Li Junmen have a city wall? If the Tartars attack, how should Li Junmen resist it? β
Li Yuanqing hurriedly smiled: "Governor." Changsheng Island is different from Ningyuan. The biggest convenience of Changsheng Island is the advantage of the island. At the beginning of planning the construction of the island, the lowly post did think about setting up high walls and thick walls, but unfortunately, the lowly post was really not financially strong at that time. There is a heart and there is no power. Later, after thinking about it, he came up with a compromise and cost-saving solution. β
"Oh? What's the solution? β
Inspector Yuan looked at Li Yuanqing with interest.
Li Yuanqing bowed his hand respectfully, although the momentum on his body did not change much, his eyes suddenly sharpened a lot, and he said in a deep voice: "Governor, the way to be humble is ...... Defend against enemies and beyond the home! β
"Enemies and outside the house?"
When he boarded, Inspector Yuan's face was not very good-looking......
