Chapter 156: Things That Shouldn't Happen

Li Hongzhang really wants to cry without tears now, and the dignified court was actually played by Liu Jun playing a small conspiracy.

Cangtian, is it really the Qing Kingdom that can't do it, Li Hongzhang closed his eyes in pain.

A reorganization, as far as the reorganization of the Lushun Army, can make the imperial court worry and fear, not only do not dare to attack, but also send itself to explain the peace.

Hey, Li Hongzhang shook his head helplessly.

Liu Jun immediately saw his thoughts.

Yes, this time it was to reorganize the troops, but in fact, it was also to prevent accidents. He smiled slightly: "Old man, I am reorganizing the troops this time, but the main purpose of reorganizing the troops is to worry about the imperial court attacking me." All I mobilized troops at the border, not entirely for the sake of reorganization. ”

Phew, Li Hongzhang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Liu Jun, and looked at Lushun. patted Liu Jun on the shoulder: "What do you need in the future, just say it, don't steal chickens and dogs, otherwise, my people, you don't want to get any of them." ”

This one? Liu Jun smiled and agreed.

Woowoo...... The Woo Woo Qiao Li began to slowly sail out of the dock, taking Li Hongzhang and heading towards Tianjin.

Looking at the Qiaoli in the distance, Liu Jun slowly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Zhong Lin who was standing beside him.

"Tell Wang Hailong that the plan is canceled. This time to build the road, I will find it in Lushun. ”

"Understood." Zhong Lin nodded. Then he followed Liu Jun, mounted his horse, and ran towards the headquarters.

Beijing City, the glorious Chuxiu Palace with the lamp wall.

From time to time, Cixi looked outside the main hall to see if someone had come to report the news, however, she looked up again, and in addition to seeing the guards outside the palace gate, they were eunuchs and palace maids.

Boredom, coupled with the anxiety in his heart, Cixi couldn't calm down so much, he began to walk down the yellow silk dumplings that almost never left, and began to walk back and forth in Chuxiu Palace.

No one dared to say why Lafayette was so unquiet, but everyone knew in their hearts that Lafayette was angry with that scourge in Liaodong.

In the past few days, the palace maids and eunuchs of Chuxiu Palace have heard all that Lafayette is cursing Liu Jun, who is the scourge of the Qing Dynasty.

Yes, the palace ladies all found that Lafayette, who used to eat two bowls of rice at one meal, now has not eaten a single meal or even a whole day.

Today, the dishes were heated three times, but each time, they were summoned to withdraw.

"Hey, why hasn't Xiao Lizi come back to report to the mourning family." Cixi walked to the door of the temple and began to look at the courtyard outside.

In the past few days, since Li Hongzhang left Lushun, he has been letting Li Lianying guard the front, just to get the news of Liaodong or Li Hongzhang as soon as possible.

The palace lights were bright, shining on the forbidden army in yellow vests, but they couldn't see the person they wanted to see.

Just as she was about to turn around and go back, Cixi saw a figure running over quickly, looking at that figure, very similar to Li Lianying.

"Galeries Lafayette, great joy, Galeries Lafayette." A duck-like voice rang out.

Hearing this voice, Cixi smiled slightly. Then walked to the position.

"Lafayette, great joy, the general army of Shanhaiguan has come to report that the Lushun army has been withdrawn one after another, and now there are only 5,000 people in Jinzhou."

Phew, Cixi finally fell to the ground with the stone hanging in her heart.

The withdrawal of Jinzhou's troops proves that Liu Jun accepted the will of the imperial court.

Nodding slightly, Cixi's appetite suddenly increased. glanced at Li Lianying: "Little Lizi, let's pass the meal." ”

This meal, Cixi ate very fragrantly. is also very satisfied, but in Liaodong, Liu Jun is depressed because of lack of manpower, and he can't eat the food on the table.

Li Hongzhang said to do it. After sending Li Hongzhang back to Tianjin, the bridge was indeed transported back two million taels of silver, and as soon as he got the silver, Liu Jun immediately asked Zhong Lin to find the engineers, some old craftsmen, to start measuring the road and planning.

The route has been planned, that is, even the land has been expropriated, but now, a huge problem is placed in front of Liu Jun.

No one built roads. Migrant workers could not be gathered.

It has been three days since Wu Datong, the Ya Wu of Lushun County, issued a notice to various places, but very few people came to sign up. The total is less than five hundred.

Five hundred people, not even a small project, let alone rebuild so many roads.

Oh my God, how can I gather people, Liu Jun, who was standing by the window of the headquarters, scratched his head in pain.

"Head." Zhong Lin, who walked in from the outside, saw him staying by the window and picked up his head, thinking that something had happened to Liu Jun. "What's the matter?" Liu Jun, who was bored, didn't raise his head, but asked directly.

Zhong Lin walked up and took down a copy of the favor. handed it to Zhong Lin, but seeing that Liu Jun didn't answer, Zhong Lin had to retract his outstretched hand.

"The two divisions of the Third Army and the Fourth Army in Yingkou have now been reorganized, and they have been ordered to Panjin, Feng Guozhang called and asked if the two divisions of the Third Army and the Fourth Army would be stationed on the spot."

What, Liu Jun raised his head violently, he seemed to have caught an inspiration, but the thing suddenly walked beside him.

What the hell, Liu Jun began to walk back and forth, thinking about what he had just lost.

After not replying for a long time, Zhong Lin had to remind again: "The Second Corps has now been fully reorganized, except for those who remain in Jinzhou."

"That's right, Construction Corps." Liu Jun slapped his hand violently.

He remembered that it was the Construction Corps.

Now there is no war in the troops, there is no war, and the army is training for a day. If they are brought over to build roads, not only can they save a lot of money, but the efficiency of road construction is not ordinarily fast. Thinking of this, Liu Jun laughed out loud.

Zhong Lin was taken aback by Liu Jun's words just now, and was taken aback, Zhong Lin asked cautiously: "Head, what construction corps." ”

This, Liu Jun was also overjoyed, patronizing and thinking of a way, but did not think of Zhong Lin next to him.

Smiling slightly, Liu Jun said: "There is no need for officials in any corps, anyway, Lao Tzu has someone to build roads now." Speaking of this, Liu Jun pointed at Zhong Lin: "Go, send a telegram, except for the North Korean First Corps, Jinzhou, Yingkou, and Liaoyang garrisons, the rest of the army divisions and brigades will immediately participate in road construction." ”

What, let the army participate in the construction of roads. Zhong Lin was dumbfounded all of a sudden, this was really the first time in the world.

After pondering for a while, Zhong Lin reminded: "Head, the troops participate in road construction, that training"

"Are you the commander or am I the commander." Liu Jun, who was excited, asked Zhong Lin rhetorically.

This, Zhong Lin's face is black, this one is still kissing, there are people in Liaodong who don't know me, but everyone knows Liu Jun, hehe smiled, Zhong Lin stepped forward: "Of course you are the commander."

"Then carry out the order." Liu Jun waved his hand impatiently.

Under a paper order, the 90,000 troops suddenly rushed out of the barracks in various places, waved their hoes, opened roads in the mountains, and built bridges in the water, and in just one and a half months, they insisted that Lushun arrived at Yingkou, and the roads in the Jinzhou area were renovated again, not to mention, and paved with gravel.

According to Liu Jun's thoughts, he really wanted to pave a layer of cement on these roads. However, now, these things have not come out at all, and he can only accept them when he sees them, as long as it does not affect the mobilization of troops at that time, then everything is easy to say.

At the Lushun Headquarters, Liu Jun squinted his eyes and was looking back and forth at a strange map hanging on the map.

This map is the road planning map of Liaodong this time. This picture was measured the day after Li Hongzhang left, Zhong Lin found some local people who knew how to build roads.

On this map, the red line is completed, and the black line is indeed in the process of construction.

After looking at the speed in the direction of Yingkou, and after looking at the right, Liu Jun was a little puzzled.

It stands to reason that the terrain around Yingkou is even more complicated. The Liaoyang area is relatively flat. How to do this, the construction speed of Liaoyang is higher than that of Yingkou. But now.

The road construction process in the Yingkou area is quite fast, but Liaoyang has advanced less than 100 kilometers, there must be a reason for this, otherwise with Duan Qirui's ability, it is impossible to have this full speed.

After looking at Zhong Lin who was standing beside him, Liu Jun turned his head and stared at Zhong Lin for a while, and then asked lightly, "Do you have something full of me?" ”
