Chapter 798: Naval Base
Early in the morning, the city of Hangzhou, which had slept all night, slowly woke up, although the Lu family commercial building has not yet opened, but the display screen outside has been playing some music and advertising as usual to attract passers-by to look sideways, the commercial building has its own generator, not bad money.
Tian Xiuying got up very early as usual, but today she looked a little tired, sitting at the window in a daze with a cup of tea, a bowl of porridge and some seasoning dishes on the table in front of her, but the woman who served her next to her was the steward of the Beauty Pavilion of the Lujia Commercial Building in Hangzhou, that is, Li Lin's apprentice who was personally brought out, and the one that Du San has always coveted but never managed and never forgotten, she has now changed a very atmospheric name to Lu Xiaohua!
Gui is the most favored concubine of the Ming Dynasty, and Tian Xiuying, a royal person, eats of course very particularly, but it is only exquisite, not luxurious and wasteful, which is influenced by Chongzhen, and everything from simplicity is influenced by Lu Wang, it is said that Lu Wang really has an impact on many people in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is the period of life or the way of thinking.
"Is the prince up?" Tian Xiuying suddenly turned around and asked in a low voice, and Lu Xiaohua, who was cleaning up the room next to her, was stunned, "I don't know, the prince went out of the city last night."
Yes? Tian Xiuying's face suddenly rejoiced for no reason: "You mean that the prince didn't stay here in the commercial building last night?" Between the questions, the jade hands holding the tea began to tremble slightly.
However, Lu Xiaohua didn't notice this, but nodded happily, "Yes, the prince left at about twelve o'clock last night, and I heard Du San say that he went back to the camp to rest, and there are still things to deal with over there."
"Oh, so that's the case", Tian Xiuying suddenly smiled, and then stood up: "The weather is good today, well, it's good to go to the West Lake to go for a hike."
There is dew on the lake, the camp is a little damp, and the families get up early in the morning to rush to work, and there is a group of villas developed by the Lu family.
Lu Wang took two guards to wear single clothes in the camp along the lake morning jog, last night after coming back and chatting with King De and others until the early hours of the morning to sleep late but very steady, and this goods found that the body has been a little fat recently, so it is unprecedented to get up early to exercise.
Nan Yan also got up very early, I wanted to accompany Lu Wang to run in the morning, but he was refused, what should he be busy with, Lu Wang said, of course, he supported Nan Yan There are other reasons, that is, to run and stop in the camp, and chat for a while when he meets his family, so that he can hear the real voice and see the real situation of the camp.
Nan Yan was also calm, and drove to the farm early in the morning, and the Lu family wantonly opened up the wasteland in Hangzhou to grow grain, and in order to rush the work, all the tractors in Jinhua were transferred, and they tried to open up as much wasteland as possible, plant the most grain, and raise soldiers and people in the fastest time.
So far, the Lu family has three farms, Jinhua, Hangzhou, and Shanghai, which do not belong to the military at all, but are the private property of Rwan, but in fact, it is difficult to divide Rwan's and the military too carefully at this time.
It wasn't until noon that Nan Yan hurriedly returned, and before he arrived at the camp, he saw a group of people standing by the lake, looked at it carefully, and was shocked, and hurriedly stopped the car.
This is the side of the road near the camp, next to the West Lake, and few people come here on weekdays, because the camp belongs to the military area, but now there are more than ten men and women standing here quietly, and the leader is Tian Xiuying.
Why is the concubine here, is it that the people in the camp are not allowed to enter, Nan Yan was a little puzzled, and after getting out of the car, he approached and wanted to ask what was going on.
"Lord Nan, please stay" Nan Yan was stopped by a member of the secret service before he could get close, "Guifei Niangniang wants to be quiet."
Oh, Nan Yan hurriedly stopped, and then looked at Tian Xiuying who was in a daze by the lake not far away with some confusion, and asked in a low voice, "Did something happen?" ”
The special service smiled bitterly and shook his head gently: "I don't know, after breakfast, I said that I was going to come out to step on the spring but went straight to the camp, but I heard that the prince left...... That's it", the agent said and smiled meaningfully, some things they knew, but they just couldn't say it.
"Ah, the prince left?" Nanyan was stunned!
Well, the special service looked at his watch: "I heard that I left at half past ten and went to Wenzhou!" ”
Nan Yan nodded, "Then you guys stay, I'll go back to the camp first" said and turned to leave, but suddenly turned back to look at the agent: "Where did you get the watch?" ”
"I bought it in the commercial building of the prince's house, the internal price, I said that anyone in the secret service who is now in Nanda feels that it is very ...... if he doesn't have a watch."
The secret service is pressing, and Nan Yan has already left.
Lingkun Island, located in the northeast of Wenzhou in the estuary of Wenzhou Bay, was originally a desert island with only a small fishing village on it, but now it has become the naval base of the Ming Army, one of the five major naval bases.
The fishermen on the island have long since relocated, and they are looking for another place with the subsidy given by the military, and the subsidy is very reasonable.
After more than half a year of construction, the original desert island has long been transformed into a different situation, with lighthouses and lookouts set up at the highest point of the island, barbed wire fences set up around the island, and artillery at several key points.
Wharf, the barracks have long been completed, the workers are busy building the bridge piers, according to the plan to build a bridge to connect Wenzhou City, although it is a little difficult, but the piers and other first projects to do a good job, the construction plan behind and then slowly solve the problem.
The official establishment of the navy stationed on Lingkun Island was less than 3,000 people, in addition to the part of the family members recruited by Rwan's original in Jinhua, there were also some fishermen who volunteered to join the army and the mixed formation of the original sailors of the Ming Dynasty.
But in addition to these soldiers, there is also a blood in the navy, and that is pirates.
More than 10 nautical miles away from the east of Lingkun Island, there are more than 10 islands and reefs, among which there is a group of pirates hidden in it, who rob smuggling merchant ships or extort and kidnap fishermen on weekdays, and even when Zhang Long and others first came to Lingkun Island to develop, they once wanted to eat this group of unknown characters.
It's just a pity that after Luwan equipped Zhang Long with speedboats, fishing boats, guns and gunpowder, this group of pirates was taken down in less than ten days, and the leader of the thieves was killed, and the rest surrendered to join the army.
The sea breeze on the island is constant all year round, even when the weather is tough, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu have become extremely rough during this time, black and rough, presumably due to the sea breeze.
The workers are building, the navy is training, but the two brothers are under the lighthouse on the top of the island, smoking cigarettes and looking forward, their expressions are a little impatient, they are waiting for someone, waiting for Lu Wang, as early as two days ago, the radio in Luzhou has informed them that the God King will come in these two days.
The two of them began to wait excitedly, and they waited for two days, and finally at noon they heard the sound of helicopters, so the whole island was in a sensation, and the workers and navy who had been on a lunch break immediately put down their rice bowls and looked at the sky and began to howl wolves.
Rwan's helicopter circled around the island and landed in the open space in front of the lighthouse at the top of the island, where Zhang Long and Zhao Hu greeted him with a smiling face.
"First of all, we must ensure self-sufficiency, and I hope that after the autumn there will be no need for me to feed you." On the west side of the island, Rwann looked into the distance, looking at the reclaimed wasteland in the distance with a smile on his face.
"More than 300 acres of land have been cultivated on the island, and more will be cultivated if it weren't for the rush to build docks and houses, but even such an autumn harvest is enough to supply the island's consumption," Zhang Long pointed to the distance, gushing endlessly.
"Well, let's do some vegetable planting, raise some poultry, and you can raise some fish and shrimp on the beach on the east side of the island...... Life will be very rich," Louvon smiled faintly.
The barn was built on the southeast side of the island, and the place to live was to face the sun first, and the rows of neat two-story cement brick buildings looked no different from the early unit dormitories of later generations, and even the frame cars in the barracks were all the latest models purchased by Rwan.
A room of more than 10 square meters, placed six shelves bed can accommodate 12 people, although the space is a bit crowded, but than the traditional Chase shop in this era is not only spacious, but also tidy.
After walking around the military quarters accompanied by Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, Lu Wang came to a courtyard that was the residence of Zhang and Zhao and the command post on the island.
Four cold dishes, three hot dishes and fresh fish soup from the pan, here is the lunch in Rwan.
One of the purposes of Rwan's visit was to deliver fuel, after all, there are more than a dozen speedboats, fishing boats, and tugboats, and the daily fuel consumption is very large.
But the most important thing is to discuss the matter of the navy going to sea, not as simple as fighting small pirates and training soldiers in the surrounding area, but to go to the sea to escort and escort the caravan. (To be continued.) )
