Chapter 41: A Strong Army in a Strong Army (Part II)

Seeing that Zhong Youpeng offered to see the true face of the "Flying Dragon Army", Wang Feng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Because he had talked too much about the "Flying Dragon Army" before, and the ancients had the habit of not exposing their tricks and true strength to others, Wang Feng was even a little worried that Zhong Youpeng would not ask him to take a look at the "Flying Dragon Army" because of this concern. In that case, it is really difficult for you to take the initiative to propose to let the other party visit the "Flying Dragon Army", so as not to appear that your side is too eager for cooperation between the two sides, so as to be in a passive position in the later meeting.

At this moment, Zhong Youpeng finally couldn't help but take the initiative, Wang Feng naturally "got off the donkey", and said: "It is said that since our brothers have asked our father-in-law to come forward to contact the Quartet for us, we should let my father-in-law know the strength of the strength in the hands of our brothers. It's just that, as my father-in-law said, the 'Flying Dragon Army' is the capital of our brothers' lives, and it is very important to our brothers, so whether or not my father-in-law can take a look at it really needs to consult the fifth brother and several other brothers. After we arrived at the 'Jingyuan', the son-in-law immediately sent someone to the 'Liangyuan' to ask for instructions, and he will definitely give you an answer before the father-in-law gets up to go to the 'Liangyuan'. ”

Although Wang Feng did not agree on the spot, there was some truth in what he said, and this matter was indeed not something he could decide. Second, when Wang Feng said that he needed to ask Wang Kunjun and others for instructions, the expression on his face was full of confidence, which made Zhong Youpeng feel that it was very likely that his requirements would be met. Therefore, he did not raise any objection to Wang Feng's statement.

After watching Ding Zhuang's drill, Wang Feng and Zhong Youpeng and their entourage walked around the training base of the "security team" for a while, and seeing that it was already early, everyone left the mansion under the warm welcome of the head of the training base, and went to the "Jingyuan" a few miles away.

The training base of the "security team" is only four or five miles away from the "Jingyuan," and Wang Feng, Zhong Youpeng, and their entourage have been able to see the wall of the "Jingyuan" from a distance in less than half an hour. However, compared to the "security team" training base, the security situation here is much stricter. There is still a lot of time to go to the "Jingyuan", but there are already samurai wearing strong suits and riding horses who have come to inquire and check.

Although because of Wang Feng's existence, and the carriage that everyone was riding in was a luxury carriage specially built by the Ministry of Science and Technology for the traverser, which was marked with special ornaments, making this kind of interrogation and questioning of the warriors a form of "going through the motions", the strength and strict vigilance of the crossing team on their own territory still left a deep impression on the Zhong family father and son, making them gradually feel that what Wang Feng said about hiding thousands of elite soldiers from unknown things is indeed possible.

When the convoy arrived at the gate of "Jingyuan", Yang Xin and Huang Hai, who had been notified before, were already outside the gate to greet each other. Seeing the Zhong family's father and son get down from the carriage, Yang and Huang hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. After greeting each other a few words, the two sides walked into the "Quiet Garden" together.

That night, Yang Xin and Huang Hai, as the "hosts", hosted a banquet to entertain the Zhong family father and son. After the banquet was over, Wang Feng first sent the Zhong family father and son to the guest room to rest, and then accompanied his wife and daughter back to his exclusive room here. However, Wang Feng at this time didn't care about talking to his wife and children, and after he settled his wife and daughter, he left the room and went straight to find Yang Xin and Huang Hai.

Yang and Huang also guessed that Wang Feng was coming to find him, so after the banquet, the two came to the conference room in the "Jing Garden" to wait for Wang Feng. After the three of them met, there was no superfluous politeness and greetings, Wang Feng immediately began to report to Yang Xin, who had the status of an alternate member of the committee, about the day's itinerary, his exchanges with the Zhong family father and son along the way, the evaluation and performance of the Zhong family father and son after watching the "security team" drill, and Zhong Youpeng's request to visit the "Flying Dragon Army" in the end, and so on.

After listening to Wang Feng's report, Yang Xin nodded and said, "Judging from the current situation, everything is as we expected before. Zhong Yuanwai can take the initiative to visit the 'Flying Dragon Army', which saves us a lot of things. ”

"Who said it wasn't," Wang Feng agreed, "Until I accompanied the Zhong family father and son into the 'security team' training base, my brother and I were still thinking about how to bring up the matter of inviting their father and son to visit the 'Flying Dragon Army' without a trace, which not only expressed our sincerity, but also did not appear that we were too eager to cooperate." As a result, before my brother could come up with a solution, my father-in-law had already opened his mouth to make a request, which really saved my brother a lot of brains. ”,

Yang Xinyan smiled, and then said: "Everything is going well now, and after Zhong Yuanwai has seen the drill of the 'Flying Dragon Army' tomorrow, it is estimated that there will be no more hesitation and scruples about us asking him to come forward to contact the local Shili and Han officials." ”

As he spoke, he turned to Wang Feng and continued: "Twenty-seventh brother, you can summarize what you just said to me, write a short report and give it to me, so that I can send it to the 'Liangyuan' side in the telegraph room." Although the fifth brother and the seventh brother were very confident in asking the bell to move the clock, a telegram reporting that 'everything is going well' was far more convincing than the previous jihua, analysis, and judgment. ”

"I think this is also the reason why the brothers agreed to open the 'Flying Dragon Army' to the Zhong family father and son," Huang Hai interjected, "As the saying goes, 'hearing is false, seeing is believing', and a powerful team in front of us is far more effective than us saying 10,000 words without evidence." ”

Regarding Huang Hai's statement, Yang Xin and Wang Feng nodded unanimously in agreement. Afterwards, Wang Feng instructed the guards on duty outside the door to bring pen and paper and write a report in the conference room. Although Wang Feng's report was written briefly, considering the time of decoding and reporting, it was concise and to the point, and everything that should be said was said.

After the report was written, Wang Feng carefully read it again, and after confirming that there were no omissions, he handed it over to Yang Xin. Yang Xin also browsed it, and then called a special telegraph reporter and sent it to the telegraph room to send it out immediately.

After sending the telegram, the three brothers did not immediately go back to the room to rest, but remained in the conference room until they received a call back from the "Liangyuan", indicating that the "Flying Dragon Army" and "Xianglong Fort" base were ready, and the next day they just had to follow the previous Jihua, and the three brothers were completely down-to-earth and returned to their rooms one after another.

The next day, on the morning of the seventh day of the first month of the lunar calendar of the eighth year of the Ying calendar, Wang Feng, Zhong Youpeng and others said goodbye to Yang Xin and Huang Hai who were sent to the gate, boarded the four-wheeled carriage, and continued to march towards Xiayunling, which was twenty miles away. Because at breakfast, they got the news from Wang Feng that Wang Kunjun and others agreed to visit a camp of the "Flying Dragon Army" on the way to the "Liangyuan", and the Zhong family father and son were in a good mood. So much so that even the motion sickness has been alleviated a lot, the discomfort of the day before has basically disappeared, and Zhong Shiwen even has the interest to lift the curtain on one side of the car to look out and enjoy the winter mountain scenery.

The car went for about an hour, because the mountain scenery was relatively bleak in winter, and Zhong Shiwen, who was tired of seeing it, was ready to put down the curtains and close his eyes for a while. Just as he was about to let it go, a huge building suddenly came into his eyes. Although I can't say the exact number, according to Zhong Shiwen's experience, this building is at least nearly ten zhang high and thirty or forty zhang wide. In the middle of this barren mountain, seeing such a huge building, it is no wonder that it will attract Zhong Shiwen's attention.

With such a strange building in front of him, Zhong Shiwen had already put aside the idea of closing his eyes and resting his mind, and stared at the building intently. As the convoy continued to move, the distance to the strange building grew closer. Gradually, Zhong Shiwen discovered that the strange huge building did not exist independently, but was in a town store. And, for some unknown reason, the town shop was filled with smoke, as if there were countless charcoal stoves burning below. Not only that, but not far from this town, there is another village and town that is no less large.

Zhong Shiwen is a native and has a good understanding of the geography around Liangxiang and Fanyang counties. In his memory, there had never been a village of this magnitude in the region. Generally speaking, due to the inconvenience of farming, many times you can only rely on hunting to make a living, so the villages in the mountains are relatively small. It is not bad for a village to have seventy or eighty households and two or three hundred people. Because some villages are located in the mountains and valleys, the terrain is relatively flat, and they can grow more food, and the population may be larger, but at most it is two or three hundred households, seven or eight hundred people. But depending on the scale of the two villages and towns in front of you, at least thousands of households and four or five thousand people can live in them.

A village and town of this scale, but he has never heard of it, which Zhong Shiwen can't help but pay attention to. Not only did he no longer lower the curtains, but he also opened the window with a piece of glass, one on the left and one on the left, which is a major feature of the carriage passing through the crowd, and it can be regarded as a little enjoyment provided by the Ministry of Science and Technology for everyone, and poked his head out to take a closer look.

Zhong Shiwen's behavior naturally attracted Zhong Youpeng's attention, but after asking the reason for his son's abnormal behavior, Zhong Youpeng didn't care about his demeanor, put his head to the side of the car window, and followed the direction pointed out by Zhong Shiwen to observe the two villages and towns that should not appear there, as well as the strange huge building.

After watching for a long time, although Zhong Youpeng, like Zhong Shiwen, couldn't figure out when these two villages and towns appeared, he was sure of one thing, that is, the direction of his convoy was these two villages and towns. After discovering this situation, Zhong Youpeng's heart suddenly moved, and he seemed to have found the answer to his question. Moreover, as the convoy continued to move forward, more and more frequently appeared on the left side of the convoy and came forward to check, especially the Zuihou team of samurai who were dressed very different from the samurai of this era and carried strange-looking iron pipes behind them, although they had a respectful attitude after seeing Wang Feng and the vouchers in his hand, they still had to carefully inspect each car, and asked all the carriages except the carriage where Wang Feng was to lower the curtains and drive the samurai, which made Zhong Youpeng more sure that his judgment was correct.

At this time, Zhong Youpeng was no longer as surprised and curious as he was just now, and while he told his son not to break the other party's rules to open the curtains, he quietly waited for the proof of his judgment.

The wait was short-lived, but after half an hour, the carriage stopped. After a while, Wang Feng's voice came from outside the car: "Father-in-law, the camp of the 'Flying Dragon Army' and 'Xianglong Fort' has arrived, please get out of the car and enter the camp to have a look." ”
