Chapter 28 Zuo Zongtang's reply

Because he knew that only after the first steamship of the shipyard was launched and the real flaws were exposed, Shen Baozhen and others would wake up to how ridiculous Zuo Zongtang's idea of "dual-use of arms and businessmen" was!

These days, while translating for the workers, he is more interested in learning relevant professional knowledge from Dashbo, a French shipbuilding expert, to prepare for the technical aspects of the transformation of the "No. 1 ship" in the future. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Lin Yizhe chatted with Ri Yige for a while, and then threw himself into work together. At this time, he didn't notice the loving gaze of Shen Baozhen in the distance from time to time.

At night, Shen Baozhen's mansion, study.

"Isn't the master resting?" Lin Puqing looked at Shen Baozhen's slightly rickety figure busy in front of the desk, and couldn't help but ask behind him with some distress.

"Oh, just a little bit." Shen Baozhen responded, and the pen in his hand still did not stop.

Lin Puqing came to Shen Baozhen's side and saw that Shen Baozhen was flying with a pen, constantly writing the draft of the recital book in small block letters on the paper.

"Aren't you in a hurry to play? It's so late, can't you write it tomorrow? Lin Puqing saw that Shen Baozhen's eyes were bloodshot, and she regretted in her heart.

"There are too many things I remember in the past two days, and I don't write them out for fear of missing them." Shen Baozhen smiled and stopped writing, "This is a written manuscript, you can take a look." ”

Lin Puqing's eyes fell on the manuscript written by Shen Baozhen on the table, and read it softly while reading it.

"For the collapse of the riverbank, I would like to show the situation of the change of site, and ask the ministers to be handed over to the ministry to be strictly discussed, and respectfully pray for the holy service: since the beginning of winter, the rain has gradually cleared, and the Chinese and foreign craftsmen have been supervising the shipbuilding platform to wait for the machine. Unexpectedly, the tide began to fall, the typhoon came suddenly, rushed against the waves, and the shore site was deep, causing a large area of the river bank to collapse into the water. Nai water is rapid, the upper and lower are empty, the far one has been lying in the heart of the wave, the near one is cracked with soil and ice, although along the river, the front has been nailed all over the huge pile, and the root is injured, the pile is also with the flow, the hundred ends try, the remedy is impossible, only the shore pile of timber is hauled and transported in the leisure, in order to prevent drowning. The shipyard is close to the waterfront, and the lower the shore site, the more tidal marks gradually reach. Previously, three layers of huge piles had been nailed to resist the urgency of wind and waves, and the overall situation was not hindered. However, the soil nature is overcome by the water, and the soil is overcome by the water, and if you want to consolidate the soil, you must first attack the water. Before the minister, he thought about building the stone bank along the river to the enemy Hongtao. Due to the huge amount of work, the need for stone is very large, and it is not protracted and cannot be successful. And I am afraid that the shore site is not strong, and the stone embankment is suddenly added, which will inevitably be light and heavy, which is to slow down. Cover the boat land in the continent field, the depression is accumulated by the mud, after the year is filled, just increase the height of five feet on the flat land, look at it calmly, and the guest soil and the original soil are not dry and wet, not more than the years old, can not be glued without leisure, every time there is a build, suffering from the soil power is invincible, then the dense nail giant pile is real, the nail pile is solid, and the side soil is forced by the pile, although the day overflows, there is no visible, and the outside is not bound, the inside is forced to tilt, the former is full of deep water, can pass the tide, in order to facilitate the transportation of timber, but the soil must be dry and begin to condense, placed in the soil and water, the more the water through the soil will be weaker, The source of this disease is also included. Above the flow of five miles, the place name of the lower continent corner, more than ten years ago, the water center rose a sandbar, under the Zhongqi, the river is divided into two, the river is excited by the head of the continent, out of the east and west, and then folds and goes south, the east out of the mouth for the rush, and the end of the spring in the middle of the sand marks of the sand mark is growing, he wins this short, the deeper the bottom of the front port, the faster the rush, the minister and the day and the gentry, take a small boat from the upper stream to observe the water potential in detail, try to dozens of stones with sawdust, pour into the water, the sawdust slanted by the water, just reach the shore and stop, when it is also, the tide returns to the wind, the waves are silent, the state of rushing, It can still be seen that if the summer and autumn are idle, the sea platform is made, the waves are furious, the river is poured into the sea, and the soil is suspended, and the more invincible. If the source of the disease is like this, the non-stone shore will not work, but if it is not the leading water potential to make it flow aside, the stone and the water have been fighting each other, and the shore cannot be relieved. Under the indignation of the minister, Bo visited Zhou Advisory, set the new site in the northwest of Ma Limit Mountain, and then built a short dam to defend the water outside, closer to the river bank, the stump is the stem, and the stacked stone is the embankment, so as to hang forever. The minister's preparation is probably also, but the minister bows to the huge responsibility, can not be precautionary, the blame is not to blame, there is no admiration for the grace of heaven, the minister will be handed over to the ministry to be strictly punished, thinking that those who are careless will be warned, and I would like to prepare the situation, galloping from the post four hundred miles......"

"Master, this is carrying this matter by himself." After reading the manuscript, Lin Puqing said with some dissatisfaction, "The old site of this shipyard was chosen by Zuo Gong, and if such a big thing happened, how can the fault be attributed to the master alone?" ”

"It's not easy for Zuo Gong, the last time Wu Tang's incident, if it wasn't for Zuo Gong's efforts, I would be in danger. This time, it's up to me to take on the responsibility. Shen Baozhen heard the dissatisfaction in his wife's words, so he explained to her, "This time, the shipyard was moved to a new location, and Zuo Gong has also approved. In order to prevent the DPRK from discussing things, Zuo Gong asked me to explain the details to the court first, and if there is a reckless discussion, he will help us to resist the ......"

"Is it Zuo Gong who wants the old man to go up to the fold to defend himself?" Lin Puqing was stunned for a moment and immediately asked.

"Zuo Gong's reply is here, take a look." Shen Baozhen casually took Zuo Zongtang's reply letter to him and handed it to Lin Puqing.

Lin Puqing took out the letter paper from the envelope and looked at it carefully.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Not long after entering Fujian, he moved to Shaanxi and Gansu, and after a journey of thousands of miles, he dared to resign from the situation, but the shipmaster had a clue, and he heard the shock, and other important policies were like chaos. Than to plan day and night, exhausted,...... Late at night, the lights are gone, and there is no time to drop the pen......"

"As for the change of address, since you have already made up your plans and can save everything, I will ask you to do so. There seem to be those in the DPRK and China who use this to talk about the shipyard, and they chase after the wind and catch shadows, and they are untruthful. However, this is not enough to tire you. The high merit is taboo, and the gold is sold since ancient times. Thou shalt be hasty to defend thyself, lest thou slander the book. ”

"Zhe'er is a master of Chinese and Western learning, and this initiative is a change of location, and it is very good to be able to apply what he has learned. However, he is arrogant and arrogant, and he is very worried. His parents have been dead for many years, and you should be responsible for disciplining them. It can be told that reading is to seek knowledge, understand the truth, do business, be self-reliant, and not seek fame. If the jade is not cut, it will not become a tool, and I will not blame him, hoping that he will be successful in learning in the future and live up to the hopes of his elders......"

When Lin Puqing saw these words at the end of the letter, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

"It's too much of a deception! Left Ji Gao! How dare you say that? ”

Seeing Lin Puqing angry, Shen Baozhen couldn't help but be taken aback.

In his impression, Lin Puqing had never been so angry.

"The reputation of my Lin family, brother and sister-in-law, how can he be slandered so much?!" Lin Puqing said angrily, "Didn't Zhe'er just point out that Zuo Jigao's location was inappropriate? If it wasn't for Zhe'er who chose a new site, the shipmaster still knows how many people died under the typhoon due to his negligence in Zuo Jigao! Zhe'er is dedicated to the public, Zuo Jigao is so criticized, what is his intention? ”

At this moment, Lin Puqing's expression actually reminded Shen Baozhen of the scene when the long-haired husband and wife besieged the city together......

It was still the twenty-seventh year of Daoguang, when the Taiping Rebellion broke out, and the wars in Fujian and Jiangxi were raging. Shen Baozhen took his wife Lin Puqing to the war-torn Guangxin area to take office, Guangxin Mansion is located in the northeast of Jiangxi Province, with jurisdiction over Shangrao, Yushan, Yiyang, Guixi, Leadshan, Guangfeng, Xing'an seven counties, the government is in Shangrao. At that time, the Taiping army had captured Jinling and was taking advantage of the situation to attack in all directions, and Guangxin Mansion was also one of its targets. The local army was limited, and in order to prevent a large-scale attack by the Taiping army, Shen Baozhen began to expand his forces as soon as he arrived. Just as Shen Baozhen went to various counties to recruit troops and raise salaries, leaving his wife Lin Puqing at Shangrao's house, a large number of Taiping troops rushed to try to capture Shangrao City. There was no commander in the city, and no one dared to come forward to command the army to protect the city, and many officials actually packed up their finesse and fled with their families in panic. The left and right people also persuaded Lin Puqing to flee for his life, but Lin Puqing was determined to survive with Shangrao City, Lin Puqing was resolute and quiet, quite fatherly, because she was usually influenced by her father and husband, and knew a little about the military, she found the leader of the defenders in the city, discussed the strategy of defending the city, and did not hesitate to open the treasury and take out all the stored grain to reward the army. The defenders fought bloodily on the city wall, and Lin Puqing personally led the women in the city to cook and send it to the city wall.

However, after being outnumbered, the situation in the city is becoming more and more critical. Lin Puqing broke his middle finger and wrote a letter of help to Rao Tingxuan, the chief soldier of Yushan Town, in blood: "The thieves have fallen into Guixi, Shangrao is in danger, the thieves are gathering 70,000 people, and the hundred ways are attacking, and the husband Baozhen is going out of the city to recruit troops, and even going to the estuary to raise salaries, hundreds of thousands of men and women in the city are killed, and the survival and death are tied to the first line." The general camp with 3,000 people to relieve the siege of Jiaxing, brave and miraculous, the government and the opposition are subdued, now I hear that the garrison Yushan, close at hand, the clan devours blood for help, Chang Xun is on standby, the life and death are flesh and bones, and the general is expected to be. ”

Rao Tingxuan received Lin Puqing's blood letter for help, and was very moved, and immediately pulled out thousands of soldiers and horses, and galloped to Shangrao overnight for reinforcements. At the same time, Shen Baozhen, who was recruiting troops and raising salaries outside, also got the news that Shangrao City was trapped, and led his troops and horses to Shangrao day and night. The three groups of people and horses joined forces with the outside world, fought bloodily for seven days and seven nights, and finally rescued the siege of Shangrao.

Shen Baozhen still remembers that when the siege of the city was lifted and the husband and wife met, Lin Puqing and himself hugged each other tightly, but did not shed a single tear.

It was the great achievement of relieving the siege of Shangrao that promoted him to the governor of Jiangxi, although his resolute, resolute, courageous, and brave wife did not receive the imperial court's commendation, but also moved the world for this service.

Although Zuo Zongtang is already a feudal official, he will never dare to play prestige in front of her.

Hearing Lin Puqing call Zuo Zongtang from "Zuo Gong" to calling him by his name, Shen Baozhen knew that his wife was really angry this time, and couldn't help but secretly regret that he shouldn't have shown her Zuo Zongtang's reply.
