Chapter 600: Unexpected Joy

The next morning

A long black Crown car, escorted by many cavalrymen of the Guards, drove out of the main gate of the Red Fort and headed in the direction of the Azure Arms Company.

In front of each black crown car, there is a flag with the noble badge of the Red Mountain Dragon, hunting and fluttering in the wind, revealing indescribable dignity and majesty, and the convoy drives by one after another, full of domineering.

The guards who escorted the convoy were all riding a pure-blooded white Arabian horse, wearing a white military uniform and a golden belt, a straight military uniform with a golden ribbon, and a golden red mountain dragon badge in the center of the Australian-style large-brimmed hat, which looked heroic and handsome, outstanding and extraordinary.

Along the way, all the pedestrians saw it, and they all stood on both sides of the street with their hands down, watching the convoy drive into the distance with reverence.

They knew that there was a noble earl sitting in the convoy, which was the heaven of Chinese overseas immigrants, a person who had been deified by the destiny of heaven, a bodhisattva who walked in the mortal world to purify all sentient beings, the white jade pillar of optimus that made millions of people admire, and the purple and golden beam of the sea.

A saint who has escaped the low-level fun of pretending to be forced to slap his face, and his every move is a legend.

The convoy drove west along the wide central boulevard, past the towering Huitong Bank headquarters, past the magnificent Earl's Library, past the towering Eiffel Tower, and past the 19th-century stadium in the style of the Colosseum.

The convoy continued to drive forward for a short distance after passing the Baixi No. 2 Bridge, turning north along the way, and soon entered the Xicheng River Tunnel.

The Westside Tunnel is one of the three Brisbane River Tunnels that have been completed, and is about 777 metres long including the approach road, and is a new tunnel with tram tracks laid on both sides of the tunnel for tram traffic.

Police checkpoints are located on both sides of the tunnel, making it impossible for citizens to walk through the tunnel on foot, and the Tram is used to travel between the banks of the Brisbane River for safety reasons, to prevent unscrupulous thugs from blowing up the tunnel with explosive bags.

Whether or not there is such a possibility, the security hole is plugged first.

The convoy soon drove through the Xicheng River Tunnel, and in front of it was a huge square, and in the center of the square was a towering nine-story gilded pagoda, so this place is also called Shwedagon Pagoda Square, and pilgrims came to make an endless stream of pilgrimages.

At the back of the square is the temple of Nanyao Pudu, a temple that incorporates the architectural style of the Chiang Mai pagoda in Thailand, with a white marble carved hall on the lower floor and a Buddhist Tallinn building on the upper floor, which looks sacred and solemn, and the Buddha's light shines.

After a short half circle at Shwedagon Pagoda Square, the convoy continues westward, passing the Grand Ship District Wharf for a few minutes, and continuing forward to see shipyards along the north bank of the Brisbane River, with tall pylons shimmering with icy steel, demonstrating the power of industry in the steam age.

In the distance, the mighty heavy cruiser "Blue Dragon" can be seen moored on the shore, and this powerful battleship has returned to the factory for mid-term upgrade and maintenance, one of the important tasks is to remove the three 280mm twin main guns and convert them into more powerful 305 mm twin main guns to enhance the fire output.

Since the underdeck ammunition depot for the 280 mm and 305 mm twin guns was the same, there was no need to make a big move, only minor resizes were needed to fit the 305 mm shells and ammunition packs, so the overall workload was not large.

After the Qinglong completes the upgrade and refit, the Suzaku will also enter the shipyard for upgrading and maintenance, so that the battleship can reach the improved firepower level of the second phase of the "Qinglong-class" heavy cruiser and realize the unity of the combat effectiveness of this class of ships.

Such a powerful battleship, in today's world there is a new term called "battlecruiser", although not a real battleship, but in some terms of performance is already comparable.

The production base of the Azure Weapons Company is located in the big ship area, where there are enough complete heavy industry equipment and technical capabilities, and it is one of the heavy industry production bases in the Red River Valley, and the supporting capacity is relatively strong, uh...... Entertainment is also plentiful.

The speed of the convoy was not very fast, about 30 kilometers per hour, which is about the speed at which the bikes are thrown off and pedaled.

This speed is exactly the appearance of the accompanying cavalry escort riding horses and running fast, and it is also the most comfortable speed of the crown car, the diesel engine runs smoothly, the noise is small, and it is flat and stable to sit in.

Because of the two-speed transmission, the top speed of the crown sedan is only 58 kilometers per hour, but it can only run when it is hoarse, and the speed range of 30~40 kilometers is the most comfortable.

Sit in the car

Li Fushou comfortably crossed Erlang's legs, and the crystal wine glass in his hand contained French Porto red wine, and took a sip from time to time, looking quite comfortable.

In the co-pilot's seat in front sat Fu Peng, the captain of the guard, with the gold badge of the major general on his shoulder, from Li Fushou's point of view, Fu Peng's temples were already gray, after all, he was in his 50s, and time had left a deep mark on his body.

Reminiscing about the past is a lot of emotion.

"Lao Peng, how many years have you followed me?"

"Back to the master's words, it has been 15 years with the head and tail, my old Peng is lucky in this life, I can follow you to see the Red River Valley grow step by step, now I look back on it like a dream, I can be happy in the middle of the night."

"Hehehe...... Time is like an arrow, I think I was only 16 years old when I first set foot in Australia, and in a blink of an eye I am also a middle-aged man in my thirties, which is really amazing that time flies! ”

"That's not ...... I married a few wives and concubines in Australia and gave birth to a lot of sons and daughters, and now my old Peng is also a group of wives and concubines, and the children are like clouds, the eldest son is 13 years old, and the youngest has just turned one year old, hahaha...... Our Lao Peng can be regarded as a branch of the branches, worthy of the ancestors and ancestors! Fu Peng laughed out loud, so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Speaking of which

Li Fushou's eyes were a little strange, and he looked at Fu Peng, who was grinning, and shook his head with a wry smile.

A few years ago

Of the 100 beauties that Major General He Fang collected in Fusang Country, he did not keep any of them himself, and dedicated them all to the Red Fort.

Li Fushou has a group of wives and concubines, where is there any spare time to go to these Fusang beauties, and he is quite uninterested in the Fusang people, and the Red Fort does not need to retain so many Fusang maids, so they are all sent out.

The guards around him, the officials of the Ninth Division were more or less stained, Bo Peng, the leader of the guards, rewarded 4 Fusang beauties at one time, this old guy is not greedy, after going back, he even took all the houses, and he was not afraid of the old waist being tired.

Coupled with the previous three wives and concubines, good fellows, a table of eight immortals was full when eating.

These close old people around him, whenever there is a wedding, funeral, or a full moon for their children, the Red Fort will have a reward to send down, and the head of the Internal Affairs Office will arrange these trivial matters, and there is no need to report them to the Earl's case.

The bounty of the Earls Court for these large members is not small, starting at least £100 according to the regulations.

Simply do the math

Fu Peng's old goods are only this one, and the rewards over the years are all combined, and it is estimated that they will cost more than two or three thousand pounds, which is too special to be born.

"Lao Peng, it's not that I have to say anything about you, you have to be more leisurely when you are old, there are many beauties in this world, catch up with Ming'er...... Poof......"

Li Fushou spoke leisurely, took a sip of red wine from his cup, looked out the window casually, and suddenly squirted out a mouthful of red wine, almost choking.

This startled Fu Peng, who was sitting in the co-pilot, and hurriedly asked; "Sir...... What's wrong with you? ”

"Stop...... Ahem...... Parking ......" Li Fushou choked on red wine and coughed twice, waved his hand to let the convoy stop quickly.

On a field by the roadside

Dongfanghong Agricultural Machinery Factory experimented two tractor prototypes, is being tested in the field, from a distance to see the amazing scale of the convoy roaring all the way, everyone knows that this is the earl coming, has already stopped respectfully, standing on the side.

Bian Chunsong wore a wide-brimmed cowboy hat to block the sun, his face was black from the black smoke coming out of the tractor chimney, only the position of the goggles showed a circle of white, and he was surprised to see that the huge convoy actually stopped, and then a few cavalrymen on white horses quickly greeted him.

God, what's going on?

"Who's in charge here?" The guard officer on the tall horse asked.

"I'm ...... I am...... Sir, you ...... You ......" He Zuguang, who was also disgraced, stood up hard, he was already scared and trembled, and his speech was a little trembling.

"Oh, you don't have to be afraid, I just ask you one thing, just answer truthfully, but I hope you don't have anything to hide or exaggerate, otherwise you can't bear the consequences."

"Ming...... Understand, in the next dare not have anything to hide. ”

"What kind of machine is this?"

"Report sir, this is under the research and development of agricultural machinery, tentatively named tractor, using a 2.0-liter mature diesel engine, two gears plus a reverse gearbox, steel tracks and traveling gear are our independent research and development products, as well as reinforced axle girders and shock absorption system, mainly used in the field of farming, ploughing, ploughing, ditching ......"

"Okay, I don't need to explain it in such detail." The officer waved his hand, and then continued to ask with a kind expression; "This mechanical ...... Belch...... Did you develop all the tractors yourself? ”

"Yes sir, I myself have synthesized dozens of international track designs, and finally designed these two practical tracks, and this guide wheel is my pioneering design, this shock absorption system is also yes, we are now in the field prototype verification, looking for structural and design deficiencies, I assure you that this is completely for agricultural use, absolutely no ......"

"Well, I understand that, and I'll ask you a question at the end...... Who is your last name and where have you worked? ”

"Under the surname He, the ancestor of the cheap word, the first graduate of Red River Valley University,. He used to work as a deputy director-level researcher of the Australian General Machinery Company, and has been engaged in scientific research for many years at the Cargill Steam Machinery Company in the United States...... By the way, I worked in Professor Wu Fusheng's team and was a researcher developing a two-speed transmission. ”

"Thank you for your candid answer, please wait a moment."

After the heroic officer finished questioning, he immediately turned his horse's head and returned, leaving more than 10 members of the personal guard staring at the group of people.

Under this huge pressure, Bian Chunsong was so frightened that he was about to pee, and whispered to Wu Baoli beside him; "Poly boy, I feel a little weak in my legs."

"Brother Song, I'm already scared to pee." Wu Baoli replied with a sad face.

There was a strong smell of urine in the air, and poor Wu Pauli's pants were really wet, but he still didn't dare to move.
