In a word, not only Wang Yong and the others were startled, but also the other side was stunned.

Why aren't we the subordinates of the Great Commander!

In the end, it was the leader who reacted and hurriedly asked the brothers to get up and salute Yang Chengying with fists.

Yang Chengying smiled at this time: "You know my rules." ”

Don't kneel, he said to the people a few times to no avail, he can only come from the soldiers first.

"I was so happy to see the handsome that I forgot about it for a while." The leader on the other side smiled innocently.

"Excuse me, what's your last name?" Yang Chengying asked.

"Marshal Lao asked, my name is Zhao Changqing, and I am the captain of the seventh team of the reserve battalion."

Zhao Changqing stepped forward and replied.

Yang Chengying nodded, beckoned to him, and asked him to come over.

The guards withdrew their defenses and put their swords back into their sheaths.

Zhao Changqing hurriedly stepped forward and gave another fist salute.

Yang Chengying asked, "What were you doing just now?" ”

"Hui Dashuai, I'm practicing escaping." Zhao Changqing replied.

"Good." Yang Chengying nodded with satisfaction.

Wang Yong and the cooks were blinded, and they were praised for practicing escape! Shouldn't we be encouraged to fight to the death and not retreat, and to repay the country with death?

How did they know that escaping is actually a technical job?

As the saying goes, the key to the counteroffensive is to keep the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood and to ensure the vitality in time.

More importantly, the reserve battalion itself is not a professional soldier. Only when they evacuate the battlefield in time, lead the villagers to flee to the mountains to hide, or regroup and organize forces to counterattack, can they have any hope of victory.

The so-called courage to struggle and being good at struggle are exactly this.

"Let's go, take me to your seven teams." Yang Chengying commanded.

"Commander, please come with me." Zhao Changqing was flattered.

Not only Zhao Changqing, but also the militia of the reserve battalion became excited.

For the first time since the creation of the reserve battalion, the marshal came, and it was the seventh team they were in, and of course they were excited.

They led Yang Chengying to the seventh team's station, Jinshapu.

This is where they train every day.

"Marshal, this is the arsenal."

After Zhao Changqing unlocked the door, he pushed open the door of a house: "This place is usually not opened, and it will only be opened when there is actual combat training." ”

Yang Chengying entered the room, glanced at it casually, and found that there were a lot fewer weapons in the room, which should be being used because of the training just now.

He picked up a simple knife casually, looked at the blade, it was sharpened, and then looked at the grip, there were obvious traces of use.

"Good." Yang Chengying put the weapon back in its place, "I can see that your weapons are well maintained, keep up the good work." ”

"The subordinates are waiting for Xie Dashuai to praise him."

Zhao Changqing took Yang Chengying to the reading club again, although it was simple, a few thread-bound books were very eye-catching.

These thread-bound books are the most basic literacy textbooks written by Yang Chengying.

"After my subordinates are busy with farm work or training, they come here to hold a reading club and read and write with the children."

Zhao Changqing introduced with a smile.

There are three huts in the station, one for meetings, one for weapons, and one for books.

This is all standard equipment in the reserve battalion.

Like a dandelion, knowledge rises with the wind, sows over the vast land, and bears sweet fruits.

Yang Chengying nodded with satisfaction, "When I come back, I will send you a set of Analects and national style, and learn more about the subtle words and meanings of the sages, which will be beneficial to you and your descendants." ”

"This dare is good, we can also be a cultural person."

In fact, books are secondary, mainly sent by the handsome, which is too important.

From Jinzhou City, there are two roads to Guifu Fort.

One is the dry road, which is to follow the main road under construction and go all the way to the northeast.

The other is the waterway, which takes a boat from the new port of Jinzhou City to the coastline and arrives at Pikou Port. Then land from Pikou Port to Guifu Fort, or take a boat to Yuanyang Port on Dachangshan Island.

When Yang Chengying went, he chose to take the dry road, and by the way, he went deep into the people to understand the living conditions of the people after the drought.

So, stop and go along the way.

After staying in Duanjiatun for a while, Yang Chengying and his guards set off again and continued to advance towards Guifu Fort.

On the other side, Zhu Huixian finally found a "breakthrough".

This breakthrough also has something to do with Yang Chengying.

Last year's snowstorm and this year's drought were a major drought, and the people thought it was angering the gods in the sky, and they asked Yang Chengying to rebuild the Shigu Temple and hold a ceremony to worship the gods to appease the gods.

Yang Chengying was a staunch materialist, knowing that this was entirely caused by the Xiaoice River period, and had no half-dime relationship with the gods, so he was not allowed.

But the princess is different, she keenly finds that this is a good opportunity to buy people's hearts and declare the existence of the court.

So, she paid for craftsmen to rebuild the Stone Drum Temple.

But for fear that Yang Chengying would come back and make trouble, Zhu Huixian took the female Taoist priest and the little nun to the Great Black Mountain on the second day of the proposal to rebuild and worship the gods.

Stone Drum Temple, also known as Tang King Palace, is located at the southern foot of the Great Black Mountain, according to legend, it was repaired by the general Wei Chi Jingde at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty.

It is rumored that there are two cobblestones in front of the temple, and the wind blows the cobblestones, like beating drums, hence the name Shigu Temple.

However, Zhu Huixian climbed the mountain and came to the gate of Shigu Temple, but did not see these two round stones.

On the ruins of the Stone Drum Temple, Zhu Huixian worships heaven and earth and pleads for rain from heaven.

After hearing about this, the people under the mountain came to the ruins of the Tang Palace, knelt down and prayed together, in order to pray for good weather in the coming year.

For a moment, the mountain fell to its knees.

Zhu Huixian was very happy after listening to the little eunuch's report.

Chun Tao reported: "Princess, Mao Yuanyi is waiting outside for an audience. ”

"Pass him in."

Zhu Huixian said and sat down on the horse brought by the little eunuch.

In front of her, the little eunuchs stood in a row and tore the cloth in their hands, obscuring the princess's view.

In this way, Mao Yuanyi couldn't see the true face of the princess, and could only hear the voice.

Mao Yuanyi and Sun Yuanhua both participated in the imperial examination, and they are two students of Xu Guangqi, and they should be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Yuanhua was not in Jinzhou City at this time, but went to Zhenyu City to teach artillery.

Mao Yuanyi, who is the head of the Ordnance Bureau, is the only choice.

Under the guidance of the little eunuch, Mao Yuanyi walked to the Shigu Temple in four directions, and knelt down at a distance of fifty steps from the princess to say goodbye.

Zhu Huixian asked him to be flat and gave him a seat.

"I heard that Mr. Mao is a native of Huzhou, because he was worried about the current situation in Liaodong, so he ventured to Jinzhou Town, and later listened to it under the command of the horse." Zhu Huixian said.

"Yes, the minister was originally annoyed when he heard that someone was using his power to do illegal things, and came to Jinzhouwei to collect evidence. I didn't want to meet the colt.,Since then, I've started an extraordinary life.。

If it weren't for the horse, the minister would be just a literati who wrote some books. ”

Mao Yuanyi's attitude was respectful, and he did not hide his appreciation and gratitude to Yang Chengying.

When Zhu Huixian heard this, she was both happy and headache.

The happy thing is that some people really praise the horse, and the headache is that this kind of person can't be loyal to the horse and not be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.

"Mr. Mao's position is low, and he has never thought of seeking an official position from the imperial court?" Zhu Huixian asked again.

"No matter how important a position is, it is not as important as the Ordnance Bureau. Jianyu is in the north, always watching Jinzhou Town. Without good weapons and firearms, how can you resist the captives? ”

Mao Yuanyi replied angrily.
