Take the train from Xi'an to Weinan, the distance is not far, and it will not take long to arrive.

Gao Yuan, commander of the 11th Division, and Zhao Jie, political commissar, already knew that the corps commander, political commissar, and chief of staff were coming to inspect the troops, and they were already waiting at the station.

After the Battle of Hanyang Town, Liu Yimin has never seen Gao Yuan and Zhao Jie. After shaking hands and hugging, Liu Yimin saw that Zhou Yi, the chief of staff, was not there, so he asked where Zhou Yi went?

Gao Yuan said that Zhou Yi and Wang Dahu were outside the station with the 31st Regiment, waiting for the regiment commander, political commissar, and chief of staff to review.

Liu Yimin smiled and said to Gao Yuan and Zhao Jie: "Zhou Yi is good at strategic planning and is very suitable to be the chief of staff. In the last battle of Hanyang Town, he led the 39th Regiment to block the frontal attack of Hu Zongnan's 1st Brigade and made great contributions. You must know that this first brigade is actually the second brigade of the original first division that won the first place in the competition of the Central Army, and after the original first brigade was transferred, the second brigade was renamed the first brigade. It was the absolute first class of the Central Army. However, our 39th Regiment is a newly formed unit, and if you compare the two with each other, you will know how correct Zhou Yi's tactical arrangement is. The last time I criticized him in the hospital, I was worried that the casualties of the troops were too large, and second, I was afraid that he would be proud when he knew the truth. The reshuffling of cadres and the transfer of him to the 11 th Division is not only a manifestation of the cadres who are functional in the war, but also an attempt to strengthen the command strength of the 11 th Division. You have to understand this meaning, don't have the idea of how the commander of the 39th Regiment can be the chief of staff of the 11th Division. ”

Gao Yuan said with a smile: "The corps commander underestimated the minds of the cadres and soldiers of the 11th Division, could it be that the corps commander can be a hero who is amazed, but the cadres of the 11th Division are not good?" ”

Liu Yimin said happily: "Okay, let's go, go and see the majestic posture of our hero's 31st regiment!" ”

The group talked and laughed and walked towards the exit of the station.

Li Chengyi is also a person from the first company of the old first battalion, and when he heard that the 31st Regiment was waiting outside for the commander of the regiment to review, where was he willing to weaken the name of the guard regiment? Immediately reorganized the troops in the station, and loudly agitated: "The 31st regiment is the first main force of our regiment, and our guard regiment is not weak, especially our battalion, which is the guard unit of the corps commander. Due to the assassination of the corps commander last time, the whole corps has a high demand for the disbandment of our guard regiment and the reorganization of the corps commander's guard unit, which is our shame! It is the one who brings the handle to me to puff up his chest, so that the comrades-in-arms of the 31st Regiment can see the majestic momentum of the comrades of the first battalion of my guard! Everyone said, it's not good! ”

The morale of the fighters was mobilized at once, and the troops quickly formed a formation and drove out of the station.

Liu Yimin walked out of the station and saw that the Red 31st Regiment was neatly arranged in the empty field outside the station as a company. As soon as he was about to speak, he saw Wang Dahu running up quickly, saluting and reporting: "Report to the corps commander, the 31st Regiment of the 11th Division of the Red Seventh Army has been lined up, please review!" ”

Liu Yimin said that he had worked hard, and walked to the troops.

Gao Yuan and the others thought that Liu Yimin would review the troops very formally, but they didn't expect that Liu Yimin walked directly to the soldiers, sorted out the military appearance and corrected the military posture for the soldiers one by one, and worked for more than two hours before he could be regarded as the last soldier to correct the military posture.

Zeng Zhongsheng admired it in his heart, he didn't expect the regiment commander to inspect the troops like this, and seeing his meticulousness when he sorted out the military appearance for the soldiers, it was obvious that he regarded the soldiers as a part of his life. Look at the soldiers of the 31st Regiment again, all of them are standing straight, their faces are full of pride, and the sense of glory and heroism is about to burst out. Zeng Zhongsheng sighed, this is the elite style of our army!

Returning to the front of the team, Liu Yimin said loudly: "The 31st Regiment is a heroic unit, a glorious unit, and the first-class main force of our regiment. The so-called first-class main force is not only charging in front and retreating in the rear, not only attacking and invincible, not only not being dragged down and defeated, but these are far from enough! The number one main force in my heart is still the study class, the work team, and the production model. To do a study class is to form a learning atmosphere, to be proud of knowledge and culture, to have ideals and pursuits, to have an overall view, a sense of responsibility, to have more cadres, and to make rapid progress; The so-called task force is to propagate the policies of the Red Army, mobilize the masses, enforce discipline, and manage social order in the defense areas. Not only can you be a soldier, squad leader, platoon leader, and company commander, but also a worker, a village head, a township head, and a county head; The so-called pacesetter of production is to hold a gun in one hand and a hoe in the other, be self-sufficient, have enough food and clothing, and do not cause trouble to the masses. With our hands, we will open up thousands of hectares of fertile land, dig out gold and silver mountains, and plant a bumper harvest of grains and fragrant fruits and vegetables. We will soon carry out land reform in Shaanxi, so that all the poor people who have no land and no food can be liberated, have land to grow and have food to eat, sincerely support us [***], support our Red Army, and thoroughly build Shaanxi into a stable rear area of our army. I demand that the heroic 31st Regiment not only be a pacesetter in large-scale military training and large-scale production, but also be a pacesetter in the vigorous land reform movement. Comrades, you answer me, can you do it? ”

The warriors roared in unison: "Yes! ”

Liu Yimin waved his hand with satisfaction and asked Wang Dahu to lead the troops back to the barracks.

As soon as Wang Dahu gave the order, the troops began to withdraw to the barracks, and immediately, the song of "forward, forward, forward, our team to the sun" flew out of the companies one by one, and the blood of the people who listened to it was gushing.

Luo Ronghuan looked at Tang Xingying with an obsessed expression, so he shouted: "Comrade Tang Xingying! ”

Tang Xingying twisted her face, and when she saw that the political commissar was looking at her seriously, two red clouds flew up on her face.

Luo Ronghuan said solemnly: "Comrade Tang Xingying, you are derelict in your duties. As the secretary of the party committee, you should have recorded the speech of the corps commander in its entirety just now, and then you should copy it to the headquarters and print it to all units. Don't you realize that the corps commander's speech contains a wealth of ideas on army building, which is of guiding significance for the current work? Look at what Comrade Zhao Xiaoman and Comrade Jingjing of the Political Department are doing, don't make yourself dizzy! ”

Tang Xingying turned her head to look at it, and saw that Zhao Xiaoman, who came with the Legion Art Troupe to have a party with the Red 25th Army, and Jingjing from the Legion Newspaper were holding small books and recording carefully, so she secretly complained in her heart, "Dead man, you are embarrassed to me again", and hurriedly said to Luo Ronghuan: "Political commissar, I'm sorry, it's me who is wrong." ”

Luo Ronghuan said: "When I heard about the 18th Regiment, Political Commissar Cai Zhong asked Li Qing, director of the Political Department, to be responsible for recording and sorting out Comrade Liu Yimin's speech, reporting it to the Central Committee in a timely manner and forwarding it to other troops for reference. You are now an old Red Army soldier, but you cannot compare with your new comrades. In the evening, you should bring their records over, copy them, sort them out, and submit them to the regiment commander for approval, and then send them to the divisions and regiments for reference. ”

Tang Xingying hurriedly saluted and said, "Resolutely complete the task!" ”

Luo Ronghuan stopped talking, and the group rushed directly to the garrison of the Red 25th Army.

The Red 25th Army left Hejiachong in Luoshan County on November 16, 1934 to carry out the Long March. Before the start of the Long March, the battle of Fushanzhai was fought, and more than 4,000 enemies were eliminated. After starting the Long March, he fought all the way, broke through the enemy's encirclement, pursuit, and interception, and entered the Lushi and Shangluo areas. After encountering the small troops of the 2nd Division of Reading Li looking for them, they learned that the Central Red Army had occupied Shaanxi, and led the troops into Weinan with the 2nd Division to rest and recuperate.

Liu Yimin knew that although the Red 25th Army at this time had only about 3,000 people, it was equipped with German-style equipment that Zhang Xueliang had bought from Germany, and the troops were fierce and flexible, and their combat effectiveness was very strong. Therefore, he had already told Wu Zheng to use the Spring Festival to make 3,000 sets of brand-new military uniforms, bring a radio station, raise some medicines in Xi'an, buy some canned food and pork, and bring them together.

After receiving a notice from the 11th Division that Commander Liu Yimin, Political Commissar Luo Ronghuan, and Chief of Staff Zeng Zhongsheng were coming to visit the troops, the leaders of the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Provincial Party Committee and the Red 25th Army were all waiting at the station.

Liu Yimin joined the Red Army late, and the comrades of the Red 25th Army were not familiar with him, but Luo Ronghuan was an old comrade, and Zeng Zhongsheng was an old chief. Therefore, when Liu Yimin and his entourage arrived at the gate of the Red 25th Army garrison, the leaders of the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Provincial Party Committee and the leaders of the 25th Army, Zheng Weisan, Wu Huanxian, Cheng Zihua, Xu Haidong, etc., all greeted them, hugged each other and cried and laughed, and Liu Yimin, who watched it, also burst into tears.

After entering the military headquarters, Zeng Zhongsheng, Wu Huanxian, and Xu Haidong were still holding hands, and Luo Ronghuan was also holding hands with Zheng Weisan and Cheng Zihua. Liu Yimin smiled and said: "Brother comrade, you can loosen your hands, isn't it a meeting between two people, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to find a wife in the future?" ”

The few people who said this time finally let go of their hands embarrassedly, and Liu Yimin asked Li Chengyi and Tang Xingying to hand Wu Huanxian the list of condolences they sent, and asked the soldiers to quickly take them off and put on new cotton clothes.

Wu Huan saw it first, and was so moved that he immediately called a few regiment commanders to let the soldiers change their clothes and unload condolences.

On behalf of the Seventh Army of the Red Army, Luo Ronghuan talked about the situation of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression campaign in the Central Soviet Region and the situation of the forced Long March, focusing on the Zunyi meeting of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, and Wu Huanxian, on behalf of the Red 25 th Army, also talked in detail about the situation of the anti-encirclement and suppression in the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Region and the situation of the Long March of the 25 th Army.

After briefing him on the situation, Luo Ronghuan said: "Now, I've sent you a radio station, and you can contact the central authorities at any time and accept the instructions of the central authorities." Moreover, Vice Chairman Zhou and Comrade Zhang Wentian are in Xi'an, and [***] and Commander-in-Chief Zhu are now in Guangyuan, but they will soon be in Xi'an. You can come with us to Xi'an to meet Vice Chairman Zhou and listen to instructions. ”

Zheng Weisan said excitedly: "It's been a few years, and I'm finally going to see the central government." Political Commissar Luo, I will go with you to meet Vice Chairman Zhou. "After that, get up and leave.

Luo Ronghuan smiled and said, "Lao Zheng, don't be in such a hurry, won't you let us have a meal at your place?" ”

Several people laughed.

Liu Yimin felt that these old-timers were as pure as children, and he was thinking about telling them that whatever they needed, the 11th Division was responsible for providing it, so he heard Wu Huanxian say: "Commander Liu, Political Commissar Luo, the soldiers of the Red Seventh Army are strong and strong, and we are so excited after reading it." Our Red Twenty-fifth Army is compared to you, in fact, it is one of your main regiments, so simply integrate us into your Seventh Army Sequence! ”

Liu Yimin actually wanted to integrate the Red 25th Army and the Northern Shaanxi Red Army into the Seventh Army Corps, enrich the strength of several reading divisions, and also change the contrast of fighters. However, this requires central approval. He said: "Political Commissar Wu, although the number of the Red 25th Army is not very large, all of them are old Red Army, which is the essence of our army, and being incorporated into the Red Seventh Army can increase the proportion of old Red Army soldiers in the army. However, this needs to be consulted by the central government, and I can't be this family. Don't worry, if you are incorporated into the Seventh Army Corps, you will not talk about it, if the central government allows you to develop your reading ability, you will use our next step of land reform to strengthen the army. Need the support of the 7th Army Corps, although to the 11th Division. ”

Wu Huan nodded first, and then said, "Commander Liu, let me give you an opinion, that is, the Seventh Army Corps should also strengthen ideological education. This morning, I overheard two soldiers say that Song Meiling's cousin is in your military hospital, and it seems that she still has a good relationship with one of your leaders. I want to ask, who is your leader, and how can he have a good relationship with Song Meiling's cousin? ”

At this time, several leaders of the Red Seventh Army stopped talking, and Tang Xingying glanced at Liu Yimin quickly.

Liu Yimin was very embarrassed, he knew that the hatred between the Red Twenty-fifth Army and [***] was as deep as the sea, and Xu Haidong's family of 66 people let [***] kill them cleanly, and they didn't even let go of the baby. But Wu Huanxian still had to answer his words, so he stubbornly said: "There is indeed such a thing, but this cousin of Song Meiling has lived and studied in the United States since she was a child, and she is a very clever surgeon who has saved the lives of many of our comrades, and she is also very kind and pure. She is now gone and has gone back to study in the United States. ”

Xu Haidong on the side was reluctant, so he opened his mouth and said, "Gone?" How can you let her go? Why didn't you arrest her and kill her? ”

Liu Yimin said patiently: "Commander Xu, Chiang Kai-shek's sins have nothing to do with this girl, our Red Army has clear grievances, and we can't let Chiang Kai-shek's sins be borne by a kind girl." Besides, she also saved many of our Red Army soldiers! ”

Xu Haidong ignored Liu Yimin's rhetoric at all, and said directly: "According to Captain Liu's statement, then the babies and teenagers of my old Xu family are not kind and pure?" Didn't Chiang Kai-shek kill him? They caught our person, indiscriminately is a killing word, we finally caught his relatives, but you told me that she is very kind, very pure, very innocent, is this fair? ”

Wu Huanxian continued: "After I arrive in Xi'an, I want to meet your leader and ask him where his revolutionary stance has gone. You don't know that Chiang Kai-shek implemented the three-light policy of burning, killing, and robbing all the people in Hubei, Henan, and Anhui, and the slogan was that the people were exhausted, the Dabie Mountains were washed with blood, and the roots and seedlings were wiped out, creating many mass graves and no man's land. The most hateful thing is that after they killed the men in the base area, they dragged our female comrades to other places to betray them, all by car. How many of our martyrs' mothers, wives, and sisters have been taken and sold by them. You say, if we don't seek revenge from Chiang Kai-shek's family, who will we go to? As he spoke, he began to cry.

Wu Huanxian's crying made the room cry.

Liu Yimin's face was pale, and he couldn't sit down. I had to take out the cigarette and smoke it and think about it.

Think about it, in my own era, people have forgotten hatred, how many people killed and how many women were sold by Chiang Kai-shek's troops in Hubei, Henan and Anhui have become numbers in books, except for scholars who specialize in studying this period of history, how many people pay attention to this matter! And these seniors in front of them have all personally experienced their relatives being killed and sold! That hatred, I'm afraid, will erupt anytime and anywhere.

Thinking about it again, not to mention Ni Hua and Tang Xingying, not to mention Luo Ronghuan, Cai Zhong, Liu Jianjian, Li Qing, Gao Yuan, Wang Dahu, these closest comrades-in-arms, that is, the original 34th Division Sharp Knife Company of more than 100 people, if they die on the battlefield, don't say it, it's normal for the two armies to have casualties in battle, but if anyone dares to kill one of them for no reason, I'm afraid that even if he chases him to the end of the cape, he will not let him go. Not to mention that Chiang Kai-shek's troops killed so many unarmed family members of the Red Army? Comparing hearts to hearts, Wu Huanxian and Xu Haidong's attitudes can be understood.

Luo Ronghuan saw that Wu Huanxian and Xu Haidong were crying bitterly, so he said: "Comrades, don't cry, there are wrongs and debts, and we have the opportunity to settle accounts for Chiang Kai-shek." The central government knew about that girl, and it was the central government that agreed to let her go. Because she is not only Song Meiling's cousin, but also Sun Yat-sen's wife Song Qingling's cousin, we can't be embarrassed for her. Besides, she did a great job for our Red Army. As for our leader, he really had a good relationship with that girl, because that girl saved him and had a life-saving grace for him. We can't kill our savior, can we? Okay, everyone, calm down, we've had dinner, and we're going to have a party with the soldiers! ”

Only then did several people stop crying and began to beckon Liu Yimin and them to eat.

In the evening, the newly established Red Seventh Army Art Troupe performed a program for the soldiers of the 11th Division and the Red 25th Army in Weinan, including the song "My Home is on the Songhua River in Northeast China", "March of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army", "Military Song of the Chinese Workers and Peasants Red Army", as well as Sichuan Opera and Qin dialect excerpts. Especially in the final finale, the chorus "Ten to the Red Army", the soldiers who sang were in tears, and the audience applauded.

On the morning of the next day, Liu Yimin, Luo Ronghuan, and Zeng Zhongsheng took the cadres of the 11th Division, the 2nd Independent Division, and the Red 25th Army to Tongguan by train.

There is the Qinling barrier in the south of Tongguan, there is the Yellow River moat in the north, there is the year in the east, there is the natural defense line of the forbidden ditch, the original Wanggou, the Manluo River, etc., which crosses the east and west, and chokes the throat of Luoyang, the capital of the east, to the throat of Chang'an in the west, and is bound to become the natural danger of "closing the door and choking Kyushu, and the birds can not pass".

The reason why Tongguan has become a famous pass in the world is due to Cao Ying. In the first year of Jian'an, that is, in 196 A.D., Cao Ying abandoned Hangu Pass, set up Tongguan in order to prevent the rebellion in Guanxi, set up Tongguan, and opened the north road from Luoyang to Xi'an, which is the main road from Luoyang to Sanmenxia to Lingbao to Tongguan today. In the Jian'an period, Cao Ying changed the mountain road to the riverside and blocked the road to set up a pass, and Tongguan became a strategic Xiongguan.

Tongguan is named after water. "Notes on the Book of Water" contains: "The river flows south of Tongjiguan Mountain in the Guan, because it is called Tongguan. "Tong waves are turbulent, so take the name of Tongguan, also known as Chongguan.

The current Tongguan City was built in the Ming Dynasty, and was expanded in the Qing Dynasty, bordering the Yellow River in the north, crossing the Phoenix and Qilin Mountains in the south, and breaking the east-west road in the east along the Yellow River and the Qilin Mountain in the south; The West Broken East-West Avenue is close to the Yellow River and goes along the Elephant Mountain. There are six city gates, except for the five gates of the south gate, the other city gates have gatehouses, each city gate opens two door openings, and there is an urn city in the middle to connect.

There are Jinling Temple, Bell Tower, Wanghe Tower, Luzu Temple, Reading Building, Xiangshan Patriarch Temple and Archway, Pavilion are numerous in the city, the ancient name is "golden and brilliant, reflecting the Sichuan Plain." ”

Standing on the city wall, Liu Yimin couldn't help but think of Zhang Yanghao's "Caring for the Ancient Mountains on the Slopes" by Zhang Yanghao, a master of the Yuan Dynasty, and couldn't help but chant in a man's voice: "The peaks and mountains are like gathering, the waves are like anger, and the mountains and rivers are on the surface of Tongguan Road." Looking at the western capital, he hesitated. Sad, the Qin and Han dynasties, the palace and thousands of rooms have been made of soil. Xing, the people suffer; Death, the people suffer. ”

After chanting, he turned to the cadres and said: "War is the greatest enemy of civilization, but it is a pity that Chiang Kai-shek was obsessed with it, and instead of fighting the devils who invaded China, he concentrated his forces to pursue and suppress the Red Army. Now that we have occupied Shaanxi, we must ensure the safety of Shaanxi. Guarding Tongguan means guarding the gateway to Shaanxi. However, although this Tongguan is known as a natural danger, it has never been held in history. Ma Chao was defeated under Cao Ying, Ge Shuhan was defeated under An Lushan, Tian Lingzi was defeated under Huang Chao, and the Yuan army was defeated under Zhu Yuanzhang. Today it is the turn of our Red Army to defend Tongguan, Gao Yuan, Hong Chaoyuan, you two tell me, can you hold it? ”

Gao Yuan and Hong Chaoyuan replied in unison: "Please rest assured, the corps commander, we will ensure that Tongguan is not lost!" ”

Liu Yimin smiled: "In fact, it doesn't matter if Tongguan is lost or not, our army never cares about the gains and losses of one city or one place in combat, what we want is to destroy the enemy's living forces." If the enemy's main force can be destroyed, Tongguan will naturally be able to ensure; What is the use of Tongguan if our army is consumed under the enemy's aircraft and artillery in order to defend Tongguan? Zhou Yi! ”

"Here!" Zhou Yi, chief of staff of the 11th Division, stepped forward.

Liu Yimin ordered: "You immediately draw up a plan for the Tongguan campaign, and the guiding ideology is what I just said, the idea is to avoid the enemy's aircraft and artillery, give full play to the superiority of our army, and focus on destroying the enemy's living forces." The plan can be done in four, one is to defend Tongguan with the 2nd Division, the second is to defend Tongguan with the 2nd Division and the 25th Red Army, the third is to defend Tongguan with the 11th Division, the 2nd Division and the 25th Red Army, and the fourth is to fight the enemy with the main force of the whole army at Tongguan. When formulating this plan, it is necessary to take into account the strategic needs of our army in Shaanxi to deal with the Majia Army on the Shaanxi-Gansu border and the Central Army at Tongguan. After the battle plan came out, the leaders of Gao Yuan, Hong Chaoyuan, and the 25 th Army first consulted, formed an opinion, and immediately reported it to Chief of Staff Zeng for examination. Got it? ”

Zhou Yi saluted with a "snap": "Please rest assured that the regiment commander will complete the task." ”

Liu Yimin turned around and confessed to Zeng Zhongsheng again: "You lead the staff officers of the staff office and Zhou Yi to survey the terrain here in detail, and you will also send scouts to sneak into the opposite side to reconnoiter the terrain near Yuling, draw a detailed map, and after the survey is clear, you will return to Xi'an directly, and wait for me to go back and study it in detail." ”

After Zeng Zhongsheng agreed, Liu Yimin asked the cadres to return to the army, and let Luo Ronghuan lead the first guard battalion and the art troupe to return to Xi'an, and he took those teachers and students who studied geology, and asked Gao Yuan and Zhao Jie to take a company to follow him into the mountains to investigate.

Luo Ronghuan knew that the corps commander must be going to look for a mine, but he didn't know what mine to find, Liu Yimin didn't say it, and he was embarrassed to ask. Anyway, there are many secrets that the corps commander doesn't say, and there are not many of them. However, Luo Ronghuan asked Tang Xingying to follow and take care of Liu Yimin's life.

When Tang Xingying heard this, she looked at Liu Yimin expectantly, hoping that he would agree. I didn't want Liu Yimin to say to Luo Ronghuan: "It's cold, taking a girl's house is to make her suffer, you go, I'll go back soon." ”

Tang Xingying was helpless, so she had to follow Luo Ronghuan and them back to Xi'an in the car.

At this time, the Xiaoqinling Mountains are still freezing cold, and the top of the mountain is covered with snow.

Liu Yimin is going to Tongyu Town in Tongguan County. Before the crossing, he had been to the CICC gold mine here, and he still remembered the direction of the vein.

Liu Yimin's idea is actually very simple, that is, to grasp the economy with one hand and the military industry with the other, so as to consolidate the foundation of Shaanxi's rear base area. In terms of the military industry, at the moment we can only make small troubles, and if we want to carry out large-scale development, we must import equipment and personnel from the Soviet Union or the United States. Economically, he is ready to use gold and penicillin as the leader to drive the development of other people's livelihood, industry and commerce. Because only gold and penicillin were not afraid of Chiang Kai-shek's blockade, so that Chiang Kai-shek and the Soviet Union took the initiative to trade with the base areas. At the same time, with ample gold reserves, it is possible to issue a strong currency.

Tongyu is about 10 miles away from Tongguan County, riding a horse, dozens of minutes to arrive.

The mountainous area of Xiaoqinling was still very closed at this time, and it was a very cold day, and the mountain people did not go out at home, and no one cared about what this group of Red Army troops was here for.

After arriving in Tongyu, Liu Yimin called Gao Yuan, Zhao Jie, and several teachers and students who studied geology together, and told them that the purpose of this trip was to find gold mines. Because he had heard people in his hometown say that Li Zicheng's peasant rebel army had smelted gold in the Xiaoqinling Mountains.

The teachers and students of Sichuan University were surprised, and they didn't expect to bring them to the gold mine. The leading teacher is called Shen Qianyi, wearing glasses, quietly, although he studied prospecting, but he never knew that there would be gold mines in Xiaoqinling, so he asked half-heartedly: "Commander, you don't have geological data, how can you be sure that there are gold mines here?" Even if there were, the mountains were all over the country, and the snow was thick, and it would be impossible to find the mine line for a while. You are so busy, it is impossible to stop here for a long time, why don't you go back, I will take a few people to investigate here in detail for a few days, and then report to you when I go back. What do you think? ”

Liu Yimin thought to himself, if I leave, you may not be able to find it for two months. He smiled and said to Shen Qianyi: "Teacher Shen, the two of us make a bet, if we can find it soon, you will stay as the manager of the gold mine." If you can't find it tomorrow, when you return to Xi'an, I will invite you to eat mutton bubbles and listen to Qin's dialect. What do you think? ”

Shen Qian thought about it, and heard that this legion commander was very capable, but no matter how great his ability was, it would not take him only one or two days to find the mine line in this vast mountain, so he readily agreed.

The group left Tongyu Town and walked towards the mountains.

(To be continued)
