Inside and outside Baoqing Port, full of devastation, a big war, will be the original prosperity here in one fell swoop, except for the core part of the port area, other places are already a mess, all eyes are broken walls, everywhere there are purple and black bloodstains, some people are cleaning up this area, from time to time under the collapsed bricks and stones, under the bricks and wood, search for a corpse or broken arm stump. Fortunately www.biquge.info the temperature is still very cold, otherwise I am afraid that these would have been rotten a long time ago.

Half a month has passed since the end of the war, but the port of Baoqing is still bleak.

At the foot of the mountain in the distance, many new tombs were added, some of them were Chu people, some were from the Shuntian army, and some were ordinary people who were innocently affected in this war. Outside Baoqing Port, there were already a large number of people who relied on this port to make a living.

Jiang Tao stood in front of the checkpoint entering the port, he was waiting for Cheng Wuben, who was about to return, and when he heard the messenger who came to report that Cheng Wuben and Qin Feng had arrived in Xiangshuigou together, he knew that this time Cheng Shuai's trip to Taiping City was only afraid that he would gain a lot.

Ma Xiangnan on one side was also quite excited, the mountains and rivers were exhausted, and there was no way out, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village, seeing the opening of the second battlefield, he had gradually come to a dead end, but in the blink of an eye, it was suddenly clear in front of him, if the Taiping army could fall to the Chu State, the effect would be countless times stronger than the Shuntian army. This is a force that controls two counties and has tens of thousands of well-trained elite combat power under its command.

Jiang Tao squinted his eyes and looked at the battle flag of the Taiping Army fluttering in the distance, the camp of the little cat's Rock Battalion was only a few miles away from the Baoqing Port they occupied, standing in his position, he could clearly see the Taiping Army's military flag flying high and the battle flag of the Rock Battalion.

Seriously, the strategic situation of Baoqing Port has not changed much, the Shuntian army was destroyed, but the Taiping army came, one was stationed outside Baoqing Port, one was stationed in Mentougou, and there was a third wave in Xiangshuigou, if there was any change, these Taiping troops were much more difficult to deal with than the Shuntian army, I am afraid that there was really only one way to sail to the sea.

"What are they doing?" Jiang Tao suddenly pointed to the distance, turned his head and asked Jiang Shangyan beside him, "You have good eyes, how can I see that there are a lot of Taiping troops over there?" ”

Jiang Shangyan nodded: "It's them, it's been a few days, and these Taiping soldiers are helping those people outside to build houses!" ”

"Build a house?" Jiang Tao glanced at Jiang Shangyan in surprise.

"Well, it's been a few days, General, you haven't left the port for a few days, but we've been watching for days, and a lot of soldiers come out of each other's barracks every day, and at first we were still on guard, but later we found out that these people didn't bring weapons at all, but with all kinds of tools, helping those people repair houses." Egami Yan Road.

Jiang Tao was silent, stared at the past with wide eyes, and really built a lot of houses with different styles from the previous ones, most of the houses over there were some messy thatched houses, but now, it is obvious that some planning has been made, the rows of houses are like neat queues, all of them are wooden and stone houses, some are just a rough shelf, only a slight prototype, and some have already been built.

The soldiers of the Taiping Army climbed up and down, doing a very happy job, and they were busy with them, more people, and many women and children were busy boiling water on the side, and from time to time they were shouting with steaming water.

"It is not unreasonable that the Taiping army was able to occupy the territory of two counties with a foreign army in such a short period of time, and it was able to stabilize the situation." Jiang Tao said in a low voice.

Jiang Shangyan flattened his mouth, "It's just some small favors." These ordinary people should know that if we hadn't come to Baoqing Port and given them the opportunity to work, would they have survived to this day? ”

"They will think that what we give them is something they have earned with their hard work, but now what the Taiping Army gives them is free." Jiang Tao narrowed his eyes, "Jiang Shangyan, you go and arrange a soldier, from today on, from now on, also to help these people rebuild their homes." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Shangyan was stunned: "General, brothers, ......"

Jiang Tao's eyes were horizontal, and Jiang Shangyan immediately withered, "Yes, I'll arrange this matter immediately." ”

"Take Huang Dali and let him lead people to do this, otherwise if you lead the team, you will scare those people. Huang Dali has many acquaintances here, so it is better to communicate. Jiang Tao commanded.

Hearing that he didn't have to do this himself, Jiang Shangyan immediately became happy, and the wind was blowing under his feet, and he went away with a smoke.

The action of the Chu army is also extremely fast, less than a pillar of incense, Jiang Tao's new guard Huang Dali with hundreds of soldiers with excitement on his face, carrying various tools to run out, for Huang Dali, this is a good opportunity to show his face. In the past, he was a little famous in the port area, but no matter how famous he was, he was just a people's head, how could he compare it with now?

The most essential content of the army is confrontation, even if it is not a war, it is just a very small thing, once two different camps are divided, this confrontation will immediately appear, although the Chu army is a little reluctant, but really stood on the opposite side of the Taiping army, looking at the other party's movements, the unconvincing energy in the depths of his heart immediately involuntarily emerged, no need to mobilize more, immediately and automatically immersed in this atmosphere that I must not lose to you.

It is conceivable that it will not be long before two completely different styles of buildings will appear in this small area outside Baoqing Port. The roughness of the north and the delicacy of the south will gather here, and a contradictory beauty of opposites will appear.

In the distance, a team of people appeared in the field of vision, heading straight towards Baoqing Port.

"Cheng Shuai is back!" Jiang Shangyan said loudly.

"It's back!" Seeing the group of people getting closer and closer, Jiang Tao was also relieved, to be honest, the Taiping army was pressed outside Baoqing Port like this, although the two armies also joined forces to kill the Shuntian army not long ago, and now it is also very warm, but what if the Taiping army turns its face?

The horse team approached, Cheng Wubenfei dismounted, Jiang Tao, Ma Xiangnan and others had already saluted him.

"Thank you, everyone!" Cheng Wuben picked up Ma Xiangnan, but he just waved his hand at the generals, and said: "This time the sudden counterattack of the Shuntian Army was my carelessness and forced it tighter, I didn't expect that this Mo Luo would actually take a risk, and it almost broke the big thing." ”

"Where is this to blame Cheng Shuai!" Jiang Tao's face was full of shame, "The last general has been in Baoqing for so long, and he is very familiar with the Shuntian generals, but he has forgotten such an important person as Wu Ling, if it is not for this person, how can Mo Luo pose a threat to us?" He couldn't even beat the door, it was my dereliction of duty that I didn't talk to Cheng Shuai about this person, if he did, Cheng Shuai would definitely not make a mistake like mine. ”

"Not necessarily." Cheng Wuben laughed: "Such weather, such geography, no food and grass, no supplies, this person can still hold such an army for so long, this is a complete miracle, it's a pity that I didn't have the opportunity to meet this person, it's a pity!" Is this man dead now or what's wrong? ”

"Wu Ling was very alert, and before the Taiping army attacked, he had already fled into the mountains with the looted grain and grass." Jiang Tao smiled bitterly.

"What a talent." Cheng Wuben sighed for a while.

"Cheng Shuai, how did you talk to Qin Feng when you went to Taiping City this time?" The horse on one side asked anxiously.

Cheng Wuben didn't have much joy on his face, and shook his head, "It's hard to say, let's talk about it when I go back." His eyes swept around, looking at the Chu army who was busy outside the port area, and was a little surprised: "What are you doing?" ”

"The Taiping Army is busy winning people's hearts, and we don't want to be left behind." Jiang Tao said with a smile.

Cheng Wuben nodded, "This time I went all the way to Taiping City, passing through Changyang County and Shayang County, and I was deeply touched by the prosperity of Taiping City, and what shocked me even more was the support of the people there for the Taiping Army." Do you know, when we came back, there was also a war camp with Qin Feng, along the way, every time we went to a village and a town, the local people were welcome in the middle of the road, sending food and goods, that kind of scene, ha, I have never seen a common person in my life like this for the army, Jiang Tao, in your reflection, what are our people like to the army? ”

"Fear, fear!" Jiang Tao blurted out.

"Yes, that's where the gap lies." Cheng Wuben sighed: "Qin Feng let me see another style of army. Wherever Mo Luo went, he brought destruction, but wherever Qin Feng went, he brought rebirth, which is why Mo Luo became more and more destitute and eventually perished, while Qin Feng became stronger and stronger. ”

"Your Royal Highness is all right?" Ma Xiang interjected again.

Cheng Wuben smiled: "Master Ma, you don't have to worry, it should be said that everything is still going well, although it is not the same as we thought, Her Royal Highness the princess is also fine, the little prince and the little princess are also lively, they can speak and call people, and they are already starting to learn to walk, this time, with us, there is also Aunt Ying next to the princess." ”

After a pause, he continued: "By the way, Aunt Ying has now officially advanced to the rank of Grandmaster, and this is the first woman in the world to be promoted to the Grandmaster. ”

Jiang Tao and Ma Xiangnan are both literati, and they are not too sensitive to the identity of the grandmaster, but Jiang Shangyan and other generals behind them all gasped.

"Let's go, go back and talk about it in detail." Cheng Wuben strode towards the port, and Jiang Taoma, Xiangnan and the others also followed him anxiously, and they were also anxious to know the result of this negotiation.

It can be said that the outcome of this negotiation of Cheng Wuben will determine their fate. (To be continued.) )
