Su Hao took Xu Guangqi, except for a small flag soldier, to a hilly area to the west of the town to conduct surveying. After arriving at the scene, the soldiers did not need Su Hao's order, they were in place under the command of the small flag officer, some set up benchmarks, some set up theodolites, and some took paper and pens to make records, everything was done in an orderly manner.

Xu Guangqi got Su Hao's permission, and for a while he ran to look at the telescope on the theodolite, and then he used visual inspection to estimate the distance and elevation of various objects in front of him, and then compared them with the results measured by the soldiers. Hearing the soldiers report various parameters, he had to ask Su Hao to explain the meaning to him. However, a great god is a great god after all, as soon as Su Hao explained simply, Xu Guangqi suddenly became enlightened, and his learning speed was ten times faster than those soldiers.

"Brother Gai, why don't you let me test one too?" After Xu Guangqi figured out the measurement principle, his skills were unbearable, so he had to practice it himself.

Su Hao smiled: "Didn't Brother Xu say that such a vulgar thing is not worth doing?" Why did you do it yourself? ”

Xu Guangqi waved to Su Hao and said, "Don't be ashamed of me, brother, foolish brother has already made a mistake." According to the foolish brother's speculation, the younger brother of Gai went to Yunnan to definitely survey and map the battle map for the army. With such a precise map, the commander of the army can truly strategize and win a decisive victory. ”

Su Hao said: "Brother Xu's eyes are like torches, and he can see the role of my survey camp at once." If Brother Xu is interested in this surveying and mapping, the younger brother will teach you how to use this theodolite. ”

"Then thank you for that." Xu Guangqi said.

Su Hao took Xu Guangqi to a theodolite, asked the soldiers who were operating it to retreat, and then began to teach Xu Guangqi how to use the theodolite by hand. The theodolite used in the survey camp has been continuously improved, and now it is very functional. Xu Guangqi put his eyes on the eyepiece of the telescope, adjusted the handles on the theodolite according to Su Hao's guidance, and was very busy.

Su Hao stood aside, watching the future great scientist as excited as a child picking up a new toy, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, he said to Xu Guangqi: "Brother Xu, just watch for a while, when you go to Fengcheng, I'll ask someone to send you a theodolite." My friend Ma Duwen is now building a reservoir in the mountains and needs to be surveyed, you can go to him and let you get enough of the addiction of surveying and mapping. ”

"Then thank you for that." Xu Guangqi said, when he spoke, his eyes still did not leave the eyepiece of the telescope, he turned the handle, turned his gaze to a field in the distance, looked at it for a while, he suddenly said to Su Hao: "Change, come and see, there seems to be an accident over there." ”

"What, what's wrong?" Su Hao was stunned for a moment, no, he let Xu Guangqi look at the telescope for such a short time, and he actually saw something happening in the distance.

A soldier next to him had already handed over a pair of binoculars, Su Hao took it in his hand, looked in the direction Xu Guangqi pointed, and sure enough, he found that in the field in the distance, a large group of people had gathered, among which there were soldiers from the survey battalion wearing mandarin duck battle jackets. At such a distance, he couldn't hear the sound there, but from the camera, it was clear that the soldiers and the locals had clashed, and it seemed that they had reached a tense situation.

"Lu Hu!" Su Hao shouted the name of the little flag officer loudly.

"In!" Lu Hu ran over and answered.

"Look, are they from over there?" Su Hao pointed to the distance and said to Lu Hu.

Lu Hu took the binoculars handed to him by Su Hao, glanced at it, and said, "Go back to Su Baihu, there are our people over there, it should be the third small banner, I saw the Xiong family brothers." ”

"Hell!" Su Hao scolded and said, "All of them, leave two people to guard the equipment to protect Xu Gongzi, and the rest of the people, run forward with me!" ”

Xu Guangqi had the heart to say that he didn't need to be protected, but before he could say anything, he saw Su Hao rushing over with Lu Hu and 8 other soldiers towards the place where the conflict occurred. The speed is so fast, Xu Guangqi thinks that he can't catch up. But since something happened to his good friend's subordinates, he naturally couldn't help but come forward to help, so he also ran over with Su Hao and his party.

Su Hao rushed to the scene of the conflict first, and he saw that the situation at the scene was different from what he had just seen in the telescope. The two brothers, Xiong Minfan and Xiong Minyang, had been knocked to the ground, and seven or eight strong men were pressing the two of them. In addition, there were more than 20 strong men surrounding the remaining seven or eight soldiers, and the small flag officer He Bencheng commanded the soldiers to form a defensive formation back to back, protecting the surveying and mapping instruments behind them.

"Stop it!" Su Hao snorted, and the people had already come to the strong men who were pressing the Xiong family brothers. He didn't do it immediately, but pointed at the strong men and reprimanded, "Let my people go!" Don't you know that the crime of beating officers and soldiers is added to the first degree? ”

Lu Hu and the others also arrived with Su Hao, they stood beside Su Hao, glaring angrily at those strong men, waiting for Su Hao's order.

"If you tell us to let it go, will we let it go? You're the oldest! There was a small leader in the middle of the strong man who said with a stalk around his neck.

"This is our 100 households, you put a little respect!" Lu Hu roared, without Su Hao's order, he didn't dare to act rashly, but it was still okay to roar.

"Yo, 100 households, tsk, what a big official." The little leader said with a look of disdain.

Su Hao watched the Xiong brothers press each other on the ground, constantly struggling and scolding, and his heart was angry, just because he was not familiar with the place and it was inconvenient to attack. He said in a low voice, "I repeat, let go of my people immediately." If there is anything wrong with my people, I will apologize, but you must let them go first. ”

"Release? You'll have to tell my lord to go. The little leader said arrogantly.

"Where's your master?" Su Hao asked.

The little leader nodded with his mouth, signaled a direction, and then said: "My lord is drinking tea at home, you can prepare more gifts, kneel outside my house for two hours, maybe my lord will be willing to see you." ”

"You're really not going to let go, are you?" Su Hao stepped forward and asked as he glared at the little leader. The meaning of the other party's provocation was already very obvious, and Su Hao knew that this matter was already difficult to deal with.

"Don't let go! How dare you...... Ouch, my mother! ”

As soon as the little leader said a word, he saw a flower in front of him, and he had already received a kick on his waist, and Gollum fell a few steps away. Su Hao's military training for more than half a year was not given in vain, and the fighting skills he had practiced in his previous life had also been picked up by him, according to Hao Tong's evaluation of him, it was no longer a problem to deal with ordinary three or five people.

Su Hao's move was equivalent to sending a signal to Lu Hu and the others, everyone saw that their robes were beaten, and they had already held back their strength, and at this time, seeing that their own hundred households had taken action in person, how could they still stand by and watch. This group of strong men is more than 30 people, and the soldiers of the two small banners of the survey battalion are added together, counting Su Hao, there are exactly 20 people. 20 well-trained soldiers, dealing with more than 30 civilians, it is naturally no problem.

Everyone rushed forward, and the people who were originally in control of the Xiong brothers had to divide their hands to deal with it, and the big man Xiong Min Fan got up from the ground with a grunt, and with a sweep of his arm, he pulled out the two locals who were pressing his brother Xiong Min's back more than a dozen steps away. Xiong Min stood up from his shackles, and the anger of the beating rushed to his heart, and his fists were clenched and smashed like raindrops at one of the locals who had beaten him just now.

There was a chaotic battle, and by the time Xu Guangqi arrived panting, the battle was over, more than 30 locals fell to the ground, and seven or eight soldiers from the survey camp were also painted, and even Su Hao had a bruise on his face, and he didn't know when he received a black punch.

"What just happened?"

Seeing that there was no locals at the scene who could still stand up, Su Hao had the leisure to learn about the situation from He Bencheng, the small flag officer of the third small flag. In the case of not knowing the truth, he led the crowd to beat the opponent to a pulp, this kind of domineering behavior is really not Su Hao's nature, maybe this is the sequelae of too much contact with Hao Tong, Deng Kui and other ruffians.

He Bencheng stepped forward and reported: "Back to Su Baihu, my Xiaoqi was ordered to conduct surveying and mapping here, but this guy brought more than a dozen people over to harass him. They first asked us what we were doing, then told us to get out of the way, and snatched the drawings that we had mapped. I asked him what he was doing, and he said I couldn't do anything, and said that if we didn't tear up the drawings, he would keep us out of the new county. ”

"Isn't there more than 30 people?" Su Hao pointed to the people on the ground and asked He Bencheng.

He Bencheng said: "That's right, we had an argument, and then they called someone over there. They wanted to grab the drawings in Xiong Laosan's hand, but Xiong Laosan didn't give them, so they did it. Then Xiong Lao 2 stepped forward to help his brother, and was knocked over by seven or eight of them. I saw that there were many of them, and I was afraid that the instrument would be smashed by them, so I ordered my brothers to protect the instrument first. If Su Baihu hadn't arrived in time, I would have been preparing to rescue the Xiong brothers alone. ”

He Bencheng said this, naturally, to explain why he didn't save the Xiong brothers when they saw death. In the case of being outnumbered by the enemy, He Bencheng listed the defensive formation, first protected the instrument, and then tried to save people, this disposal was no problem, Su Hao affirmed him.

After asking He Bencheng, Su Hao came to the little boss who was very arrogant before, and asked him, "Brother, what is your name, why did you come to harass our army?" ”

"Lao Tzu Xing will not change his name, he will not change his sex, Lu Cunren is also!" The little leader lay on the ground, trampled by two soldiers from the survey camp, embarrassed, but he didn't forget to drag a sentence, "Lao Tzu is the bodyguard of Master Wu's family, you are a small hundred households, you dare to beat Master Wu, you have a big deal!" Hurry up and help grandpa up, kowtow to grandpa three times, I will spare you from death. ”

"Lu Cunren, right?" Su Hao smiled, "You dare to gather a crowd to beat up officers and soldiers, believe it or not, I can cut off your head now?" Who is your master Wu, who are you ordered to harass our army, and what is the purpose, to recruit me from the truth. I don't have a word about it, I'll gelding you first! ”
