In late May, a dusty procession drove outside the Siming Mansion in Guangzhou. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"It's so hot!"

Dong Bi was not resistant to heat, he wanted to untie his collar secretly, but he was afraid of Fang Xing's military order, and in the end he could only use his hand as a fan, which was slightly better than nothing.

The long queue was silent, from the capital to the present, under Fang Xing's strict orders, it was basically all the way to train the troops.

The soldiers' skin turned dark, Fang Xing touched his face, and felt that it was better not to look in the mirror, it must be Bao Gong's face.

In front of us is the city of Fu, but when someone from the city told Fang Xing, don't enter the city, what supplies do you need, and after we sent them out, Fang Xing's whole person was a little bad.

"We've rushed all the way here from the capital, so let's go in and let us rest!"

When the visitor saw Xin Laoqi's fierce eyes on the side, he smiled bitterly and said: "It's not a secret, the Jiaozhi people have often come to harass recently, if you enter the city, the people in the city may run away." ”

Fang Xing didn't understand the meaning for a while, and when Dong Bi went to negotiate with this person, he was a little cold.

Is this because you think that after stationing a small army, it will attract the attack of the Jiaozhi people?

Maybe not, but this local reaction made Fang Xing somewhat enlightened.

This is the border, and in the past it was a Jiaozhi that had been entangled with China for more than a thousand years.

In the former Song Dynasty, Jiaozhi killed a lot of people here, and it is said that he slaughtered the city.

Yin Jian is not far away, and the locals seem to be a little afraid of Cochin. Therefore, in the event of a rebellion, there must be reinforcements, otherwise the entire Guangxi may fall.

After Dong Bi explained the scarce materials to the local officials, he came over and explained: "Mr. Fang, those Jiaozhi people are flexible and not afraid of death, so the locals are really a little afraid. ”

The human race of the tropical rainforest reminded Fang Xing of a term.

Depressed, he exhaled a sigh of relief, and Fang woke up and called to camp.

The tent was set up, and as soon as Fang Xing entered, he called the scouts.

"Can you meet the messengers of the army?"

The scout shook his head and said, "No." ”

Fang Xing waved his hand, and after the scout left, he called Dong Bi.

Dong Pi took off his helmet as soon as he came in, and said profusely: "Mr. Fang, this weather is really choking!" ”

Fang Xing smiled: "It's only May now, and after June, the weather here can make people crazy." ”

After chatting for a few words, Fang Xing asked Dong Bi to carry some scarves over there.

The so-called scarf is just a thing that Fang Xing made from breathable fabric in the warehouse.

Fang Xing then went to inspect the barracks and explained that he was not allowed to drink raw water and was not allowed to expose his skin.

"This is a major event related to human life, which hundred households are not satisfied, I have nothing to say, this kind of person we will never want in the thousands of households in Jubaoshan!"

The hundreds of households all agreed, and Fang Xing then explained: "All gunpowder must pay attention to moisture-proof!" ”

Xin Laoqi explained: "Young master, our gunpowder is all put in wooden barrels, and we also put a layer of moisture-proof paper you gave in advance to ensure that it will not be used." ”

The moisture-proof paper is actually kraft paper, first put the kraft paper into the wooden barrel, and then put in gunpowder, and tie the mouth tightly. Fang Xing has tested, and the effect of moisture prevention is good, but I don't know if there will be danger.

Fang Xing nodded with satisfaction, and then saw that Dong Bi had already arrived with a guide.

"Where is the army now?"

Fang Xing asked. At this time, communication was inconvenient, and if Zhang Fu's army was transferred, Fang Xing would have to run the wrong way.

The guide shook his head and said that he didn't know, so that Fang Xing and Dong Bi were secretly speechless.

Dong Bi persuaded: "Mr. Fang, the British public soldiers are like gods, presumably the news will not come out." ”

Secrecy is the number one key to the success of military operations.

Fang Xing said helplessly: "Then let's go to Yi'an Mansion." ”

The order of the military department was to let it go until Yi'an Mansion, and then the action was arranged by the British Gong Zhangfu, so Fang Xing had to go according to the plan.

The next day, all the soldiers were covered in a layer of gray veil, which looked a little strange.

After the team entered the territory of Jiaozhi, Fang Xing realized that he had overdone it.

"There aren't many mosquitoes, and there aren't leeches either."

Xin Laoqi specially walked around, as long as he didn't enter the forest, there were almost no disease-causing insects on the road.

The corners of Fang Xing's mouth twitched, and he said, "Then take it off." ”

The civilians I saw along the way were all thin and small, and when I saw an army passing by, they all stood on the side and watched.

Under these hostile gazes, Fang Xing led the men and horses to Yi'an Mansion.

"The army has arrived in Tan Binh Province, where the enemy has harassed a lot recently, I don't know ......"

Fang Xing, who was hit on the head, had to secretly curse the unreliability of the military department, and then boosted his morale and continued to move forward.

"Luckily, it's not the rainy season!"

If it was the rainy season, Fang Xing estimated that a third of his people would fall by the time they arrived in Xinping Mansion.

At this time, in the camp of Zhengpingzhou, Xinping Prefecture, Zhang Fu and Mu Sheng were receiving orders.

After the eunuch who passed the decree left, Mu Sheng smiled and said, "Grandpa Guo has met a relative this time. ”

Zhang Fu's face remained unchanged, and he just laughed at himself: "Jing Mao, this is the first time I have met this brother-in-law, and His Majesty wants me to test his condition, which is a little embarrassing for me." ”

Mu Sheng is several years older than Zhang Fu, and his son Mu Bin is already engaged to Zhang Fu's daughter, so he has no scruples about speaking.

"Wen Bi, I heard that this Fang Xing gave the King of Han no face in Jinling!"

Although generals can't stand in line, who is Zhang Fu? Who is Mu Sheng?

A British duke, a Qianguo duke, and the two are in-laws, so there is no need to be too shy about talking.

Zhang Fu snorted: "My brother-in-law lives in the village all day long, but he teaches a few students, and some people can't see it!" ”

Mu Sheng smiled: "You don't look at who is among the students!" ”

Speaking of this, both of them remembered the many letters from the King of Han, in which they talked about the friendship between the two sides, from the first acquaintance, to the Battle of Jingjing, and then to the present......

Glancing at each other, Mu Sheng sighed: "This muddy water is not good!" ”

Zhang Fu said lightly: "It's okay if you don't flow." ”

Mu Sheng wanted to say more, but when he saw a faint look on Zhang Fu's face, he changed his words and said, "How do you arrange your sister-in-law when she comes?" ”

Speaking of this, even Zhang Fu said a little helplessly: "He has no official status, but His Majesty handed over the thousand headquarters to him again, doesn't this make me embarrassed?" ”

Mu Sheng laughed and said: "People don't have an official body, you can't afford to be a military commander!" ”

Zhang Fushu smiled and said, "Let's see! ”

After two days like this, when Fang woke up to the outside of the camp, Zhang Fu immediately arranged: "I'm gone, give them a place to camp, and give enough food and herbs." ”

So Fang Xing and his party were placed in the corner of the camp.

In this territory of more than 200,000 troops, Fang Xing's men and horses were really like a wave in the sea, and they quickly disappeared.
