Chapter 767: Thin Life

"Crusade against the thief, the demon king will give the head, and the blood revenge of the children of Sanxiang will be avenged. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info The north and the south negotiate peace, protect Sangzi, and protect tens of millions of compatriots from sword soldiers. Protecting the grace of the homeland and protecting the righteousness of the family, Xiaoxiao has nothing to repay, but can only be rewarded for her innocence. The mandarin duck pillow is opened, and the good thing in the company is finally completed, and the relationship between the couple has ended. He will see each other one day, either as a stranger or as a confidant, and everything will come to pass. Cherish ......"

On the letter, there is still the fragrance of women, but it is difficult to find a beautiful woman in Changsha City. Looking at the letter, Su Hanzhi sneered: "What, how does it feel to be dumped by a woman for the first time?" ”

"Of course it's sad, do you need to say it? When I'm what? Obviously, she took the initiative, I thought she was really willing, but she wanted to play missing again, as if it was my overlord on the bow. My good reputation in Hunan is half ruined. ”

Zhao Guanhou sighed helplessly, "She is a beautiful woman, where can she go?" It's not my hometown, it's not my relative's house, I want to find it. But since she is bent on avoiding me, I should not interfere with her life. If I had known that things would turn out like this in the end, I would definitely do Megumi Yanagishita once. ”

"What she has decided, even if you refuse, may not be useful. In short, it's her choice, including damaging your reputation, and maybe it's part of her design, or not. ”

Su Hanzhi has an innate defensive psychology for this kind of young and beautiful woman with a certain amount of knowledge, and it is enough to have a Mrs. Songjiang in the family, and there should be no more. What's more, the Luo family is a famous family, and the power of the mother's family is too great, so it has to be guarded against. Based on her position, she is not good at getting maggots clearly, but she can beat the side drum. Said with a smile:

"I think it's better for us to respect Miss Luo's own intentions, although she is temporarily separated from you, but in Hunan, our layout has not been affected too much. I think after we leave, she will probably come back, after all, the women's church school in Hunan, as well as the women's teachers' college, all need her to be the principal, and there is still a place for her in the education department. She can't gain a foothold in the military now, so she has to move to the education world, and I think she will not let go of this opportunity. Salary, garrison, what should be talked about has been negotiated, and we should go back and see our children. Jingci's naughty bag, I don't know how many troubles I have caused again, Anna is not there, only Ah Jiu can't control him. ”

"Go back and find a chance to beat up, you can be honest for a few days." Zhao Guanhou smiled and hugged Su Hanzhi's waist, "Sister, I understand your thoughts, don't worry, although I am willing to be responsible, I will not abandon others for her." I admit that everything that happened with Xiaoxiao was a mistake, and I couldn't control it for a while, and I made a big mistake. It's better to be friends than to be a couple. If she is willing to come in the door, I am willing to give her a name and take good care of her. But now that she's made her own decision, I'm willing for her to choose her own life. I won't leave you behind for her, really let go of everything and go back to her. ”

"Maybe if you do, she'll really fall in love with you." Su Hanzhi said with a smile: "I will arrange for female soldiers to protect her, and by her side, I will leave an epiphany to complete." We have gained a lot of things in the two lakes, and it is time to consider going back, otherwise, if Kyori appoints you to patrol the two lakes, you will be annoyed again. The weather in Hunan is much worse than in Shandong, and I am not used to Hunan cuisine. ”

Lu Jun is finally going to pull out.

Except for the Fourth Division of the Shandong Provincial Army, which was stationed in Yuezhou to repair Hunan Water Conservancy, and the Second Division of the Provincial Army, which was stationed in Yichang to supervise the peace negotiations between Hubei and Sichuan, the rest of the Lu Army returned to Shandong by land and water. Through the relationship of the Ministry of Communications, Meng Siyuan allocated a large number of locomotives to the Lu army, and hired China Merchants Steamship, and Shandong's own steamship was really majestic.

At that time, in order to strengthen its face, the Sichuan army transferred a fleet to the waters of Yichang to prepare to deter the Lu army. didn't want to play mahjong table, Li Huchen said directly to the Sichuan Army card friends: "Your merchant ships, don't always go around in our defense area." If you want to sell smuggled goods, you should prepare a small boat, this kind of big ship is too dazzling, and when the Shandong Navy comes, it will be confiscated. ”

"What a merchant ship! That's a warship! Warship! The general of the Sichuan army, whose self-esteem was seriously hurt, angrily corrected Li Huchen's statement, and the latter was even more angry than him, "It's not so deceitful, is it?" You are my melon, haven't seen a warship? Just find a sampan to install an earthen cannon, or say it's a warship? Could it be that we will sink your ship one day, and we will pay you a warship, isn't this a slander? ”

The Sichuan officer said: "If you sink the warship, of course you will lose money." This is our navy in Sichuan, there are only a few ships in total, your navy should pay attention, don't sink it, otherwise, we will take the lawsuit to the Admiralty, and you will also have to pay compensation. ”

It wasn't until later that Li Huchen figured it out. Sichuan's so-called navy is an anti-smuggling team on the water, with the goal of capturing tobacco and salt sellers, and building improvised warships. Its pursuit is that the materials are cheap and the cost is low, and the principal wants to make a fortune from it, so the quality cannot be discussed. The Sichuan people said that "a good Sichuan warship, seven days from Chongqing to Wancai, warned the cypress ships on the river, and the warships would lose money." ”

In the eyes of the Lu army, there is no deterrent effect at all, and the only thing to worry about is that if such a ship really sinks, the Sichuan army will ask for how much compensation they want. Fortunately, the commander of the Sichuan Navy also realized that before the Shandong warship arrived, he began to flee upstream without his life, and waved the flag: The old guns of the broken ship have no ammunition, and there is no food and salary, so before the Lu army makes a decision, please carefully calculate the expenses.

The Xia family brothers, who have been successfully promoted from Baoshun to the commander of the Lu Shenglun warship, also instructed their subordinates after reading the flag, "Don't drive so fast, this ship is not enough coal money if it is captured, everyone turn around, the meaning is good." ”

Relying on foreign technicians and steam paddle steamers manufactured by the shipbuilding industry left over from Prussia, Shandong can be called invincible in the Republic of China. Even the Fujian Navy does not have the ability to compete with the Shandong Navy, let alone the Sichuan Navy. After being swept around by several steam warships with naval guns, the Sichuan army made up its mind that it could only win or lose in a battle with Shandong, and could not compete with each other on the battlefield.

In Hunan Province, Lu Jun, who boarded the car and boarded the boat, received countless flowers and applause. The bold girls even went to hug the Lu soldiers who were about to leave. Compared with the provincial army of this province, the Lu army is easier to win the closeness of the people whether it is good looking or style. The military uniform was straight, the leather shoes were bright, and the officers of the Lu Army with gold watches on their bodies received enthusiastic letters of courtship from local women. On the train and on the ship, there are many new women who have run away from home and left Shandong with their savings and sweethearts.

The original intention of the gentry was to use the means of marriage to envelop the Lu army and make it for their own use. I don't want the beauty to be inferior to the high-ranking officials, but many girls are attracted by the richness of Shandong officers and the treatment of Shandong, so they leave their families and are abducted back to Shandong, so that the gentry can't steal chickens and eat a handful of rice.

The provincial army, which was ashamed of its filthy appearance, simply did not dare to go out on the streets, and Changsha was responsible for public security, which was dressed in clothes and highly similar to the Lu army. This police investigation team is the Xiangyong sent to Shandong by Wu Jingfu before, and now they are all serving in the Lu army. The total number of people exceeded 200 and was under the command of Luo Chongxuan.

Anyway, after being married to Luo Xiaoxiao for one night, Zhao Guanhou also has to compensate Luo Chongxuan. This police investigation team is the armed forces directly under the direct jurisdiction of Luo Province, although the number is small, but it represents the attitude of Shandong, with this attitude, in a short period of time, no one dares to move his position in this province, and Tan Yankai does not dare to attack him.

In Zhao Guanhou's carriage, Ren Sheng listened to Zhao Guanhou's lecture with a serious face. His fourth division, which was ordered to stay behind, was called Xingxiu Water Conservancy, which was actually to send food to Hunan Province. The Fourth Division lost more than 3,000 men in Tianzhu due to water and soil reasons, and he was criticized for this. Later, Yu Huaishang recruited troops, and even absorbed some foreign soldiers in Tianzhu, and now the brigade surrendered by Wu Xintian and the new recruits in Hunan were all incorporated into his subordinates, and the members were extremely complex.

Fortunately, he was born with disorderly morality, and he was not afraid of chaos among his subordinates, and with the children of Huaishang and the supplementary regiment of the Fifth Division as the backbone, he was sure that in the shortest possible time, this army would completely obey his command.

Zhao Guanhou knew that Ren Sheng, a general from the old army, had a very strong learning ability, and his grades in the Shandong senior officer training class had always been outstanding, and his performance in Tianzhu was also very good. He only instructed: "Zhang Zongyao's troops surrendered, except for the troops of the original Sixth Division brought back to Shandong by me, most of the rest are working as coolies in river work." These people are untamable, so be careful that they bite back. Besides, it is Wu Xintian next to you, although he is anyway, but he is a communist soldier, not a Shandong soldier, you know the difference in your own heart. ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, you should be careful to be vigilant."

"Just watch out. Don't get too close to them, but don't be too distant either. We are very popular now because we eliminated Zhang Zongyao, and because of the short period of time. The longer we stay, the higher the local discontent against us, the more we need to be cautious. Don't interfere in Hunan's internal affairs, and repair our water conservancy with peace of mind. Since Ge Ming's military rejuvenation, most of the water conservancy in the province has fallen into serious disrepair, and this time I issued water conservancy bonds to Hunan, just to build river works, I must do a good job, and I can't let people poke my backbone. ”

"Humble duty understands!" Ren Sheng gave a military salute and asked, "...... Master Luo?"

"Over there, I'll send someone to watch, you don't have to care, no matter what he says to you, or who moves out, you don't want to listen. If you need to help him, I will send someone to inform you, and without my order, you can just treat him as an ordinary person. Of course, if you want to be a Hunan Overseer, you can strengthen your ties with him now. ”

Ren Shengdao: "Without a big marshal, the humble post will either starve to death in Jinmen, or die in the hands of the Eight-Nation Alliance." I don't want to be an overseer, I just want to follow the commander, saddle up and horse. ”

"Rest assured, there are opportunities. You are in Hunan, don't be an enemy of the gentry, and you don't need to be a friend. The best way is to be an immortal sect and not associate with them. Whoever loses your food and pay will send me a telegram, and I will take care of them. ”

The train made a long whistle and slowly drove out of the station, and the Hunan gentry and citizen representatives who saw them off desperately waved their flags to see off the benefactors who saved Hunan.

In the corner of the platform, a man with the brim of his hat pressed very low slowly lowered the flag in his hand and wiped his eyes with his sleeve. Beside her, a petite and delicate woman smiled: "Shame or not, such an adult still cries his nose." You too, if you like your brother-in-law, why don't you make it clear to him? No matter how much you and your sweetheart used to love each other, he's dead, and you have to think for yourself. What's the deal with you being together for one night and then being apart like this? ”

Du Xiaoxiao did not return to Songjiang, and the cost of building water conservancy was not small, and in addition to apportionment, the main source of funds was to rely on the issuance of water conservancy bonds guaranteed by Hunan's agricultural tax. Although it is stated that the special funds are earmarked, but the designated issuance by Zhengyuan, this is a large amount of income, Du Xiaoxiao is responsible for the issuance of public bonds on the one hand, and on the other hand, he is also responsible for the financial supervision of Hunan, and he cannot go back in a short time.

She and Luo Xiaoxiao went from Songjiang to Hubei to ask for help, and the two were very good friends, plus she had always been taken care of by Chen Lenghe, and she was not afraid of herself, the brother-in-law of the overseer, so even Luo Xiaoxiao fled to her house to hide, and she also promised to protect her.

Hearing her teasing, Luo Xiaoxiao said, "I didn't ...... It's just sand in my eyes. I can't keep my body pure for him, and even the purity of my heart will be taken away from me? You Lu Jun are too domineering, aren't you? ”

"Look at what you said, it's like someone forced you to do this, yes, it's not that you don't owe favors?" Du Xiaoxiao smiled and took her hand, "You too, there are many ways to repay favors, you have to use this trick, what if you have a baby?" ”

"Where...... How can it be so coincidental, only one night...... Impossible, right? Luo Xiaoxiao didn't have the confidence to say it herself, but she still gritted her teeth, "You must have deliberately scared me!" You are really, looking honest, but changing the method to scare people. Next, we will issue public bonds together and build water conservancy, if I really have it, see who else will be your partner? ”

With the departure of the Lu army, the competition between the gentry will inevitably become white-hot, and the partners who drive Zhang side by side, in the face of interests, are mercilessly raising butcher knives against their comrades. Looking around, the ground is full of thorns, except for Du Xiaoxiao, a cute and kind girl, Luo Xiaoxiao can't find anyone who can be trusted and will not use herself to realize her ambitions. Even if it's a father...... That night, how could it not be the result that my father wanted to see?

On the platform, someone set off firecrackers to make a trip for the Lu army, but Luo Xiaoxiao said in her heart, is this a food trip or a plague god...... She took Du Xiaoxiao's hand, "Miss Du, let's go." ”

"Yes, we are going to do our business, someone has to come out and do something for Hunan. Since men can't be trusted, they have to rely on us women. ”

"Where is Duan Zhengfu in the capital, can you agree to Guanshuai's request and allow Hunan to make his own? If it is not allowed, I am afraid that there will still be a war. ”

Du Xiaoxiao was full of confidence, "The request made by my brother-in-law must be met by the Zhengfu, and he wants to refuse Shandong's proposal, but he is not so bold." ”
