Lushun, the hill outside the city, the sea breeze blows, so that the grass on many dense graves on the post swings from time to time, swaying from side to side.

This place is the burial place of the sailors who died in the two battles of Arthur and the naval battle not long ago.

Not long ago, in a battle with the Japanese Combined Fleet, although it achieved brilliant results, the Beiyang Naval Division lost the torpedo cruiser Guang Bing and the three-bow torpedo boat, the Pingyuan was seriously wounded, and 520 officers and men were killed.

The old grave was already overgrown with weeds, but the new grave was new.

There was a cannon boom, and it was a gun salute fired from a distant battery.

Today is the first thing Liu Jun has to do when he returns to Lushun, to pay tribute to all the soldiers who died in this war.

The ceremony was very simple, but it was very moving, and many living soldiers were moved to tears by Liu Jun's action.

Soldiers, in this era, are not respected, and even some soldiers think that they are born to splash their lives, while generals are born noble.

Especially the Sheng Army, which has just arrived in Lushun and is being reorganized, this kind of situation is now widespread.

Now, however, they don't think that way anymore.

Rumble...... After the three gun salutes of the fort, Liu Jun, who was standing at the front, knelt down in a proper manner and knocked his head three times.

In an uproar, the main generals of the Lushun Army, who followed closely behind, immediately followed behind and knelt down

This move made the people who came to watch and the Lushun army who was responsible for maintaining order feel a warm current in their hearts.

The people are proud that their children can become handsome soldiers and die on the battlefield, and the soldiers are indeed honored that they have made a good marshal.

You can rest in peace, my brothers, stand up and look at the rows of dense graves, Liu Jun closed his eyes and thought silently.

Turning his head and looking at the plainly dressed officers and soldiers standing around not far away, Liu Jun glanced around and walked to the temporary pine wood memorial platform not far away. After saying some hard-won words of victory, Liu Junmeng raised his voice: "I declare that the military and people of Liaodong will celebrate together for three days, all regions of Liaodong will be exempt from tax for one month, and all the people of Liaodong will not kneel when they see all the commanders of Liaodong, and the soldiers will not need to kneel." ”

Long live ......, long live...... Long live the handsome, all the personnel boiled at once, and began to shake their arms and shout, and the joy was beyond words.

In fact, in the Lushun Army, there is no habit of soldiers kneeling, and the reason why Liu Jun wants to officially announce it today is for the sake of the people's hearts.

Li Hongzhang's reminder has always been in his mind, he can't forget it, he understands that if he wants to resist the disarmament of the imperial court, he must twist the troops into one, which will capture the heart of the army.

As for the people who do not kneel when they see officials, he also has ideas for tax exemption in January, and he wants to let these people know that people are all equal, and there is no distinction between third-rate and ninth-rate.

The people are the source of soldiers, he has to grasp the hearts of the people, and only when the army and the people work together can they resist the small actions of the imperial court.

As soon as the war ended, Lushun Junming returned to calm after a warm celebration.

In an alley on the right side of the east gate of Lushun, there is a small courtyard, the yard is very simple, the red paint at the door has fallen off a lot, in front of the courtyard, there are two ten thousand years of clear, growing very green. Although it is simple, it can't even compare to the home of a big family, but no one looks down on this small courtyard, this is Zhong Lin's home.

Not long after the rooster crowed, the sky was just dawning, and Zhong Lin, who was sleeping with his daughter-in-law Zhou Li in his arms, heard a crackling knock and shouting outside the door.

The knock on the door was not only a thief, but also a loud scolding, "Zhong Lin, open the door quickly." ”

"Who, it's early in the morning, do you want anyone to sleep?"

Zhong Lin, who was sleeping, muttered and opened the door lazily, he really didn't know who would dare to shout in front of his house and call his name directly.

There was a squeak, and before Zhong Lin could see clearly, he saw a gray figure rushing in with a large bag on his back.

When the man came in, he was scurrying around, apparently looking for some hiding place.

Zhong Lin was stupid all of a sudden, and he didn't see who it was for a long time, but he looked like he was going to commit it. Tearing open his throat, Zhong Lin shouted at the opposite side: "Daughter-in-law, hurry up and bring out the bowl of rice and vegetables, our family has a refugee." ”

", why is he talking, what kind of escape, Lao Tzu doesn't know such a thing."

Zhong Lin was even more stupid now, and after a while, he pointed at the man and said, "Head, what's the matter. It's you. ”

Zhong Lin can figure it out, this person who carries a big bag and looks like a fleeing dress is actually Liu Jun.

"Paralyzed, I'm going to die, I'll come here to hide for a few days, I can't stay at home anymore." Liu Jun threw the things on his body to the ground at once, and Zhong Lin realized that it was actually a quilt.

hurriedly ran over, took Liu Jun's quilt in his hand, and then took Liu Jun in, and asked Zhou Li not to bring the child with him, and hurry up to cook.

"Head, what's wrong. Sister-in-law swept you out of the house. Zhong Lin asked suspiciously.

Hey, Liu Jun sighed, it was an admit, and after a while, he took a sip of water and began to complain to Zhong Lin about his tragic fate.

All these things were actually caused by Li Hongzhang's marriage to his granddaughter. Li Hongzhang wanted to find a way out for his descendants, but he didn't expect that Wu Xiaoyan in Liu Jun's family was not a master to mess with.

I didn't know who was walking when I went back, and Wu Xiaoyan, who had just been promoted to someone who was still at home, rushed home angrily, and asked Liu Jun to explain honestly. Wu Xiaoyan said that Liu Jun was tired of the old and hated the new, and he disliked her as soon as he gave birth to a seed, which made Liu Jun choke enough, but Li Hongzhang's marriage could not be pushed away. Cheng Tian heard Wu Xiaoyan sigh. Liu Jun couldn't help it. Early this morning, I rolled up the cover roll directly and came to Zhong Lin to avoid the limelight. He planned to wait for Wu Xiaoyan to go back after his anger subsided.

Zhong Lin on the side was dumbfounded. It took a while to slow down his head.

Zhong Lin couldn't believe that the head of the army of more than 100,000 people would be afraid of his sister-in-law Wu Xiaoyan. This is indeed peculiar.

"I can tell you, whoever asks, tell me that you are here."

Seeing that Liu Jun's eyes were full of begging, Zhong Lin nodded seriously, but when he thought of Wu Xiaoyan, Zhong Lin asked suspiciously: "What if the sister-in-law is ......?"

"You are so stupid, you are just to hide from him, you still ......" Liu Jun roared angrily.

Okay, Zhong Lin had to swallow a mouthful of saliva, got up and cleaned up the side room casually, and let Liu Jun live in.

Zhong Lin's mouth is indeed very closed, Liu Jun has lived here for more than ten days, and there is nothing at all. And no one came looking for trouble.

Seeing that the time to marry Li Hongzhang's granddaughter was approaching, Liu Jun had to grit his teeth, he decided that he should go to Wu Xiaoyan to make it clear.

When he returned home, the world war that Liu Jun was worried about did not break out, and Wu Xiaoyan did not get angry with Liu Jun.

Wu Xiaoyan originally knew the general situation, and she was furious a few days ago because she had just given birth to a child, and Liu Jun, a bastard, actually wanted to get married, which really made her very angry, but later she looked back and always said that her husband married the granddaughter of the governor of Zhili, which also has certain benefits for Liu Jun's future development, so he did not get angry with Liu Jun, but let Xiang'er sit down for a good meal and talk about her heart for a night.

Early the next morning, Liu Jun suddenly regained his former self-confidence, and he would not be afraid of it, and one of the things that the headquarters did was to let Zhong Lin inform Li Hongzhang that he would line up the armored cruiser Toad and the ironclad ship Zhenyuan, and would go to Tianjin to welcome Li Maolian to Lushun for her late marriage......

Lushun, today is a happy event for Lushun and even a real Liaodong military and civilian, Liu Jun and Li Maolian's wedding was held today for a long time.

"Head, it's time, it's time to go." Zhong Lin's loud voice began to appear. Then there was the laughter of the people around him.

"What is he comparing, Lao Tzu marries a wife, what are you urging." Liu Jun was dressed in a bright red costume and had a big red flower on his chest. Slowly walked out of the room.

Liu Jun is worried, Li Hongzhang is anxious to marry the granddaughter called Li Maolian, Liu Jun is very suspicious that Li Maolian is an ugly monster, otherwise Li Hongzhang will be so anxious, for fear that he will return, this time it will be less than five days, people will not say anything, and even the date has been chosen.

The aggrieved Liu Jun didn't want to get married, but the old man's face Liu Jun had to give, so even if he didn't want to. He had to go, too.

Others are happy to get married, and their faces are full of redness, but Liu Jun seems to be preoccupied now.

Zhong Lin had a good relationship with Liu Jun, so he walked up: "Head, why is it the same as guillotine when you get married." ”

Oh my God, where is this guillotine, this is simply fatal, I don't even know what my daughter-in-law looks like, Liu Jun thought sadly in his heart.

In the midst of pushing and shouting, in desperation, Liu Jun was also pushed on the horse by the surrounding generals.

Crackling and firecrackers rang out, Liu Jun, who was riding on a horse, had to show a hint of hypocritical smile, and in the company of everyone, he went to the east of the city in fear.
