Chapter 1066: Joy
Mao Wenlong's marriage was completed in Anran, according to Mao Wenlong's instructions, it was indeed very simple, all the old generals and some of the more famous gentlemen in the academy were invited to eat and drink, and the matter was settled.
Mao Wenlong did not accept the gifts, and he did not allow people who came to congratulate him to give gifts. are all their own old generals, otherwise they are poor sour gentlemen in the academy. Accepting their gifts, Mao Wenlong was afraid of being struck by lightning.
With the help of many parties, the investigation of everyone in the academy has almost been completed. And Haoda also began to mobilize the dark guard battalion to replace the original garrison.
The Defense Academy has been equated with the Defense of the Imperial City, and it is changed every year to ensure that there will be no favoritism and malpractice by any acquaintances. The commander of the secret guard was personally appointed by Mao Wenlong, and in addition to Mao Wenlong himself, the only people who could instruct these secret guards were the dean and Hong Chengchou.
The courtyard wall of the academy was poured with cement to be heightened, from the original 5 meters directly to 10 meters, and artillery was directly placed on the high city wall. The flat, spacious walls look like the Great Wall from a distance, with turrets designed every ten meters.
Hong Chengchou, Mao Wenlong, Haoda, Xin Wei rode a horse and walked on the city wall to inspect, looking at such a spectacular new city wall, Xin Wei showed a smug look on his face. These are the results of the craftsmen and 20,000 craftsmen in the academy in two months, and from the pouring process of this city wall, it can be completely proved that the craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the academy is not comparable to the previous ones.
Weihaiwei, with about 100,000 people, is no longer comparable to the previous small guards, just patrolling around the city wall, and then riding a horse for a day. After autumn, Weihaiwei is very cold, and the cat can't stop the cold wind blowing from the sea in the turret.
The turret was already small, and the space left was extremely limited, except for the place where the artillery was placed and the place where the shells and gunpowder were stacked. There were more than 30 people on Mao Wenlong's trip, and they poured in all of a sudden, and they were crowded with people in an instant.
Without saying a word, he climbed all the sergeants who followed out of the turret, which squeezed out the space of the turret. Haoda's move was very inappropriate, after all, the general should advance and retreat with the sergeant. But Haoda took it for granted that the sergeant was lifted outside to be frozen, but he and Mao Wenlong hid safely in the warmer turret.
Hong Chengchou frowned and sighed lightly: "Chief soldier, as a general, you should advance and retreat with the sergeants, and share the joys and sorrows. In this way, the sergeants were driven out, and the old man felt that it was inappropriate, and this trend should not prevail in the army, otherwise it would definitely make the soldiers in the army disheartened. ”
Mao Wenlong looked at Hong Chengchou who was full of worries, and said with a smile: "Sir, don't worry too much, everyone here is your own people." Also, the sergeants weren't kicked out, they were the first to rush in and just search the turret. ”
According to Mao Wenlong's statement, those sergeants just now were Mao Wenlong's close guards, and so many people squeezed in just now, but those guards were checking the safety of the turret.
But Hong Chengchou didn't think so, obviously what he had just seen with his own eyes, those guards were directly driven out by Haoda. Seeing is believing, no matter how Mao Wenlong explains, he can't be fooled like this.
Hong Chengchou was also born as a military minister, and on the battlefield, he has always advanced and retreated with the sergeants. At this moment, it is very disdainful of Mao Wenlong's connivance and nonsense.
Seeing that Hong Chengchou still had an expression of disbelief, Haoda was anxious now, and he suddenly went out and called those guards back. Haoda pointed to the guards standing at the door, and bowed to Hong Chengchou: "If Mr. doesn't believe what the general soldier said just now, you can ask them for confirmation in person." ”
Hong Chengchou had this intention, and he was not polite, and went directly to ask those guards one by one for verification. After a while, the guards were waved back by Hong Chengchou, and he turned back with an embarrassed look on his face.
With the joint efforts of Haoda and Xin Wei, the fire had already been lit in the brazier in the turret, and the four of them stood around the brazier to bake the fire, and it warmed up after a while.
Hong Chengchou is also a frank person, and he doesn't take face seriously when he is old, and when he was roasting the fire, he had already apologized to Mao Wenlong for the misunderstanding just now.
Mao Wenlong naturally didn't go into it, it was just a small misunderstanding, and it wasn't a big deal.
At this time, it was almost noon, and the inspection was only halfway underway, so it was obviously inappropriate to go back to eat and come back to inspect again. So when I set out in the morning, I had already prepared dry food, and Hao Da took out the dry food and distributed it to everyone, and I was very busy.
Hong Chengchou gnawed on dry food and looked out from the window of the turret, and in front of him was the city wall that was still winding and endless. Hong Chengchou was afraid of hitting the city wall and said: "Why does the general soldier want to increase the city wall so high, in fact, the height of the previous city wall is enough to defend the safety of the academy?" ”
"There are not enough defenses in the world, and the walls of the past are a defense against those days. Now the situation has changed, and the time has come for the walls to be further raised. Weihaiwei is close to the coast, the enemy can attack from the sea, once the sea can not be defended, this wall is the last line of defense of Weihaiwei. ”
Hearing Mao Wenlong's explanation, Hong Chengchou was relieved, and when he arrived at this moment, he also realized that Mao Wenlong had already thought about everything in the academy. Hong Chengchou even had an illusion, he felt that Mao Wenlong seemed to want to build this academy into a standing appearance for thousands of generations. Because the defense of the imperial city is not as tight as the defense of the current academy.
Moreover, Mao Wenlong spent a lot more thought on the academy than in the imperial city, and most of them did it himself. Comparing these two, the judgment is made from the superior.
The inspection continued, and Hong Chengchou walked down the way, and he found a lot of differences, and he became more interested in the academy. After returning home, Hong Chengchou began to change the rhythm of his original life. The days of growing vegetables and living leisurely no longer exist, according to Mao Wenlong, Hong Chengchou was stimulated, lived to learn from the past, and only by constantly enriching himself could he keep pace with the times.
Since Leng Xiang moved in, the small courtyard has also begun to become lively, with three women in one play. The quiet cold fragrance was also quickly infected by Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan, and the three women got together and had endless topics to talk about every day.
Today's courtyard is different from the past, when Mao Wenlong came back, the courtyard was very quiet, and he didn't see the three girls who were used to chatting on the balcony on the second floor. When Mao Wenlong entered the house, he found the three girls sitting quietly in the living room.
Chen Lan and Hong Ziyan's pretty faces could not hide their joy, while Leng Xiang's faces were full of shame, and when they saw Mao Wenlong coming back, they were even more shy.
Mao Wenlong's face was full of confusion, I don't know what the three girls are doing? At this time, after Chen Lan called Xianggong, he told Mao Wenlong: "Xianggong, my sister is happy!" ”
