The efficiency of the old thirteen is really very high, just at sunset, it was already sent back, saying that it was okay, and it was indeed okay - after Songzhu turned back from the Fengtai camp, when even those Langzhong and outsiders who instigated him to make trouble scolded a dog, there was no other, the old thirteen dragged Songzhu to the Fengtai camp, without saying a word, just an order, a group of new army soldiers set up machine guns and cannons are a fierce bombardment, such a huge momentum, On the spot, Song Zhu, who did not know much, was stunned, and when he arrived in such a field, how could Song Zhu dare to say anything about the ancestral teachings of the bow horse heirloom, and then he realized that he dared to be used as a gun, and he was ashamed, but how could he spare those clever words.

It's okay, Hongqing is too lazy to care about Songzhu's incompetence and rudeness, the daily government affairs are already so overwhelmed that he can't breathe, as long as Songzhu doesn't come to life, it will be done, as for the rest, it should be put aside first, not not to report, but the time has not come, the priorities, Hongqing can carry it clearly, and can let it go, what should be busy every day, what should be busy every day, the days have passed day after day, in the blink of an eye, it is the day of the military exercise, Hongqing has finally dealt with all the official documents that have been backlogged for more than a year, although not everyone is satisfied, but most of the scholars and scholars still have an appreciative attitude towards it, even Wang Liang, who was the most opposed to Hongqing, has not been able to find too many faults, and since then he has no longer openly talked about the reinstatement of Yinren as the prince, of course, what Wang Luo thinks in his heart, then only God knows.

On April 25, the 58th year of Kangxi, the road from the capital to Nanyuan was crowded with pedestrians, and most of the people in Beijing were rushing to Nanyuan.

As the most popular dragon grandson, and holding the power of the prison country, Hongqing does not have to squeeze together with a group of people, in fact, yesterday Hongqing was already accompanied to the Nanyuan Palace, of course, the palace is not lived, Hongqing is with the third master and all kinds of brothers together in the palace not far from the palace set up a few big tents, together with the tents of the brothers, the palace is far away in the middle, it can be regarded as the meaning of the arch guard.

Counting up, the third master has thirteen sons, but the age is very different, the oldest Hongqing is already twenty-three, but the youngest is still breastfeeding, has always been, Hongqing is busy with official business, and it is early to share the house with the third master, and the younger brothers really don't have much contact, of course, Hongqing is majestic, and the younger brothers can't let go in front of Hongqing, they don't dare to stir up trouble easily, brotherhood, naturally not much to talk about, yesterday a partner slept together, but it was a convenience, Hongqing can be regarded as having a good reunion with his younger brothers, drinking and laughing until late at night, fortunately, he has a good body and bones that have been boiled out since childhood, so he didn't oversleep, got up early in the morning, punched and kicked a few times, and used a bowl of white porridge, and then led Li Minxing and other subordinates to rush straight to the camp under the jurisdiction of the Li Fan Academy.

"Xiaguan has seen the prince!"

The busiest part of the military exercise is not actually the participating armies, but the Li Fan Yuan, no side, the fundamental purpose of this military exercise is to declare force to the outside world, the target is not only the Russian envoys, but together with the Mongolian departments and even Korea, Myanmar and many other subject countries have to be counted, there are many people, things are complicated, poor Li Fan Yuan has no too many manpower of the small yamen, to deal with, inevitably a little difficult, even if Hongqing specially took care of it, specially dispatched from the six departments of a lot of officials to help, it is still difficult to say comprehensive, there is no other, there is no other, There are thousands of guests, and it is difficult to reconcile the mouths, which really makes Lang Erheng, the scholar of the Li Fan Academy, busy with all fours, no, yesterday I didn't close my eyes almost all night, and I was busy early in the morning today, and I heard that Hongqing had arrived, but I had to drop the work in my hand, and hurriedly ran to the camp gate to greet him.

"Lang Shangshu doesn't have to be formal, it's hard work, can everything be arranged? If there is still a need, and just say it bluntly, but if Xiao Wang can do it, it will be considered one or two. ”

Lang Erheng was originally a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and the reason why he was able to be promoted to the high position of the Shangshu of the Li Fan Yuan was the power of the third master behind his back, and he was the descendant of the third master.

"Thanks to the grace of the prince, everything is going well, the lower officials are arranging for people to prepare breakfast, and at sunrise, since all the visitors should be sent to the pergola on time, it should not be a mistake, and please rest assured."

As the confidant of the third master, Lang Erheng is far more aware of Hongqing's absolute status in the family of Prince Cheng's Mansion than ordinary people, and he didn't dare to be rude in front of Hongqing, so he answered it respectfully.

"Well, that's fine, Lang Shangshu just has to get busy, Xiao Wang will go to the Russian envoy to go around."

Although Hongqing has the title of overseeing military exercises, in fact, it is just a big shopkeeper who flicks his hands, and the affairs of the army are all in Zhang Luo, and Lang Erheng is taking care of the things to welcome guests from all sides, as for the on-site security and other matters, it is the Fengtai battalion commander Wolf is in charge, as for himself, there is only one task, that is, to watch the Russian envoys and find out their true reaction to the military exercises. After giving Lang Erheng a word, he immediately led the people to the place where the Russian envoy was located.

"Ah, it's His Excellency the Venerable King of Renjun who is here, welcome, welcome."

The Russians' camp was self-contained, not only was the tent alone, but also the guards brought outside the camp were on guard with loaded guns, and the security was really tight, Hongqing had just arrived at the gate of his camp, and the Grand Duke Gagarin, who had already received the knowledge of the guards, had already led the famous interpreter out of the camp gate with a smile on his face, and opened his hands to make a warm welcome.

"Grand Duke Gagarin is polite, did you rest well last night?"

Hongqing was not interested in having a bear hug with the amazing old Maozi, so he stood up reservedly, and after listening to the translation of the interpreter around him, he just said politely with an indifferent face.

"Oh? To be honest, it's not good, it's actually too bad, it's all around some uncivilized barbarians, making a lot of noise, and the noise is so noisy that I haven't closed my eyes much all night, ah, don't talk about this, Your Excellency King Renjun, please come to your camp. ”

The bear hug is a welcome and honorable etiquette for the Russians, and Gagarin put on such a posture, but he did not get a response from Hongqing, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised, but he didn't have any complaints, so he just shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly, and unceremoniously derogated the Mongolian tribes and the rest of the Qing vassals who were also guests.

"No need, the time is almost up, if Grand Duke Gagarin doesn't mind, then please gather your subordinates and wait, Xiao Wang personally accompany you to the review stand."

Hearing that the polar bear, which has always been called a barbarian by Western Europeans, actually called others barbarians, Hongqing was really angry and funny in his heart, but he didn't bother to argue with Gagarin, so he just proposed a sentence with an indifferent face.

"Oh, it's okay, I've been looking forward to your country's military exercise for a long time, I hope to have a refreshing feeling, ah, your Excellency, please wait a moment, and then order the whole army to assemble."

The invitation failed to get a response from Hongqing, and Gagarin's face immediately showed a look of disappointment, shrugged his shoulders, and pretended to express his expectation, but in fact, his eyes were full of disdain, and it was obvious that in Gagarin's view, the military drills in the era of cold weapons were really nothing to look forward to.

"Duke Gagarin just take care of himself."

After listening to the translation of the interpreter, and comparing Gagarin's previous expressions and eyes, Hongqing could deduce what Gagarin was thinking in his heart, but he didn't bother to bother with him, so he nodded indifferently and agreed to his request.

"Blow the trumpet, gather the whole army, cheer up Lao Tzu, let the people of the Qing Dynasty have a good life to see the heroic appearance of my Great Russian Emperor!"

Gagarin came to Beijing this time, thinking that he could return with a full load, but he didn't expect to be hung by Hongqing for more than a month, and now he was treated coldly one after another, and his mood was extremely unhappy, and the words of the order inevitably brought a strong resentment.

"Didi, Dadidi......"

As soon as Gagarin gave the order, one of the trumpeters who was beside him hurriedly took off the trumpet hanging from his waist, brought it to his mouth, and blew vigorously and violently, and when the trumpet sounded, there was immediately a panic in the originally calm barracks, and one Russian soldier ran out of the tent one after another, and quickly lined up three rows of neat queues in the open space of the barracks.

Uh-huh, the quality of the polar bear's soldiers is still quite good, it's kind of interesting!

The so-called layman looks at the lively, the insider looks at the doorway, Hongqing has worked hard in the military strategy for so many years, and it can be seen that the Russian officers and soldiers of this company are well-trained, and the combat effectiveness should be quite impressive, of course, what Hongqing appreciates is just that the Russians play well in the drills, as for the arquebuses in the hands of the Russians, they don't care at all, there is nothing else, this kind of weapon is a good weapon to deal with the army of cold weapons, Compared with the latest breech needle rifle in the hands of the officers and men of the new army in Fengtai Battalion, it is already three generations behind......
