Chapter 942: Tension (2)

Under the introduction of Mr. Zhu, An Yi learned that Meng Lian Xuanfu Department is the only building complex in Yunnan that is built by the Han and Dai ethnic groups, covering an area of more than 20 acres, with the main hall, the meeting hall, the back hall, the wing room, the entrance hall and other ancillary buildings, which was built in the Ming Dynasty in Yongle four years, and is the office of the Dai Tusi Dao clan. From the Ming Dynasty to the early Republic of China for more than 500 years, a total www.biquge.info of 28 generations of hereditary Tusi exercised the right to rule here, and there was a wall more than two meters high outside the yamen, surrounded by four side gates. The main building, the council hall, is a three-fold eaves hilltop dry-bar house. The whole group of buildings is a wooden structure, and its bucket arches, cornices and other components are the Han architectural forms, and its dry column buildings and halls are the style of Dai architecture. However, it is a pity that although the main building of the Yamen is well preserved, due to the frequent change of dynasties, disrepair, and the continuous erosion of the British colonists for more than ten years, the people in the border areas have panicked, and the regime has been abolished, and the courtyard walls on both sides of the gatehouse in front of the Yamen and many ancillary buildings in the backyard have been damaged and collapsed.

Simao is 270 kilometers away from Menglian County, and the roads are almost all built along the foot of the mountain and the riverbank. Thanks to the construction of the border official road during the Ming Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty in the heyday of the Qing Dynasty in order to show benevolence and imperial majesty, spent a huge amount of money to carry out two large-scale expansions, so that the construction of the road in the most remote county under the jurisdiction of the Anjia Army has become the easiest road section to build, only 11 months, the whole process of expansion was completed, and the construction of more than 20 iron bridges shortened the mileage to 232 kilometers, which is already a big achievement, but these 232 kilometers away, An Yi's convoy still took eight and a half hours, and when they saw the outline of the small county town from afar, the sun in the sky had already set westward.

The convoy entered the east city of Menglian, thousands of people of all ethnic groups stood in the middle of the road, surprised inexplicably, the vast majority of people saw the car for the first time, one by one to look around, even a little frightened, until the convoy stopped in front of the simple bamboo fence at the entrance of the garrison camp at the east entrance of the city, Zhu Zizhan father and daughter and Zhu Yaoliang, the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, who are familiar to the people of all ethnic groups, got off the car and saluted, and the villagers showed smiling faces, and a group of leaders hurriedly greeted them, folded their hands, bent down to salute, and asked in a low voice whether General Anda, who commanded the army of Meng Lian, also came?

An Yi and his entourage, at the pleading request of Zhu Zizhan's father and daughter and Zhu Yaoliang, met with Gongxiu, the descendant of the Dao family Tusi and the Tusi heads of the eight surrounding villages, one by one, and then surrounded by thousands of people, walked across the chain bridge erected by the Second Regiment of the Engineer Corps, and came to the majestic yamen of the Xuanfu Division.

Jiao Guangxu, Zhang Guosheng, head of the garrison regiment, Chu Huaiqing, commander of the Second Engineer Regiment, and Lin Bingning, captain of the special brigade, led the soldiers to line up for a long time.

Jiao Guangxu led Zhang Guosheng, Chu Huaiqing and Lin Bingning to run down the steps early, came to An Yi, saluted the report, and said in a loud voice like a bell, which made the bustling crowd around him frightened and silent:

Jiao Guangxu, deputy commander of the garrison division, reported to the commander that the officers and men of the Menglian Garrison Regiment, the Second Engineer Regiment, and the First Detachment of the Special Service Regiment of the garrison division should have arrived at 4,825 people, but the actual number was 1,450. After the report, please give the commander instructions! ”

An Yi replied: "Take a break!" The brethren have worked hard...... It is getting late, and I have not been able to visit the brothers one by one, so please take me to greet them when you return in the evening. Okay, let's go in if it's nothing...... Huaiqing, you and Director Zhan and they would like to thank the villagers, thousands of people have come from the morning over the mountains and mountains, it is not easy, thank you well, the relief materials should be distributed by taking this opportunity to be distributed, and the second batch of materials will arrive in three days. ”

"Yes!"

Chu Huaiqing stepped forward to salute and looked at An Yi, his eyes full of eagerness.

Entering the main hall, everyone humbly sat down, An Yi, who was comparable to the Kipchak minister in the minds of the Tusi leaders, was naturally pushed to the main seat, and the Tusi saw that this tall and handsome general was so young, and they were very surprised, although they had heard the name of General An Yi who used soldiers like a god and won a hundred battles from Zhu Zizhan and Zhu Yaoliang and past merchants, and knew that An Yi was the current emperor Chiang Kai-shek's senior disciple, and a general who led hundreds of thousands of elite troops, but at this time they met, How can I not associate the reputation with the gentle young man in front of me, many toast heads used to imagine An Yi as a middle-aged military general with a thick beard and a majestic waist, but they never expected that he would be a humble scholar.

But just now, a group of tall and powerful generals saluted and reported respectfully in front of An Yi, and the toasts saw it with their own eyes, and they were in awe of the two deep-eyed, non-angry and powerful generals Gu Changfeng and Shen Fengdao behind An Yi, and at this moment they saw the two sitting on An Yi's left and right hands, their expressions were calm, their faces were calm, and they couldn't help but close their mouths and wait carefully for An Yi to speak.

Old man Zhu's father and daughter and Zhu Yaoliang, the director of the Civil Affairs Bureau, saw the doubts on the faces of the leaders and the panic that could not be concealed, looked at each other and smiled, and comforted the leaders in a harmonious voice, Zhu Yun, who was like an angel in the minds of the people of all ethnic groups, bloomed with a beautiful smile, and told everyone softly Don't be nervous, the general is very easy-going, and everyone can say anything after drinking tea at the banquet.

Only then did the leaders sigh out, looked at An Yi with a smile on his face, and showed far-fetched smiles one by one, which made An Yi cry and laugh, but he could only return the courtesy.

Only Gu Changfeng couldn't help it, stood up with a smile, took out a pack of "Sabre Brand" special cigarettes, and distributed them everywhere: "Come on, come on, seniors, you're welcome, although this cigarette is not as expensive as opium, it doesn't hurt your body when you smoke it, try it......"
