The structure of the yamen of Tiance Mansion is different from other yamen, what is a separate courtyard, what three in and three out of the front hall and back yard, these are all not zài, this is just a two-story building built of bricks and stones, due to the shortage of land, Lang Son mansions have become increasingly scarce, except for some huge wealth, the vast majority, in order to make use of land space, often the pattern of houses, began to develop in the direction of high and compact space utilization.

The square structure of this kind of brick and stone is much worse than the courtyard attic, but it is practical.

Tiance Mansion is such a four-story house, Hao Fenglou's office is on the fourth floor, one inside, one outside, a few scribes work here, and then outside, there is a small hall, and there are people in and out of the small hall every day, most of them are military attaches from various guards who come to see, so there are people coming in and out here all the time.

It was early in the morning, and Hao Fenglou had already gone to the inner office, and there were already seven or eight people sitting in the small hall, some of whom were summoned by Hao Fenglou, and a few of them were ordered to come to deliver official documents.

They are wearing, are tight-fitting military uniforms, because the soldiers and horses of the four guards, almost all have been reloaded with guns, although the sergeants also have close combat exercises, but the main is long-range shooting, which leads to zhì, the traditional leather armor and chain mail will only bring inconvenience to the sergeant, the tactics of the fire gun require flexibility, the military uniforms of the four guards and even the model battalions of various countries, are made of light fabrics, and must be tight-fitted, so as not to be inconvenient, people in the army, even if they are not tall, but most of them are strong, Wearing this full-fitting military uniform. Sitting straight in the hall, some with official documents under their ribs, and some with boots gently hitting the floor. Some people are silent, and there is occasional small talk.

At this time, the two military attachés chatted.

One of the military attachés saw the color of the person opposite, and his number was on his uniform, so he couldn't help but say, "But Lang Shanwei's?" ”

"Yes, the deputy Qianhu of the Langshan Wei Haiphong Thousand Households was ordered to come and listen to the general's instructions."

This general. There is only one, and that is Tiance General Hao Fenglou.

The military attache who asked the question suddenly became interested: "Your thousand households are Zhou Yan?" I knew him, back then. We were on a team, and we were in charge of scouting together, and he was the one who saved my life during the Battle of Siam. Look at ......" he rolled up his trousers. Revealing a scar, he said with a smile: "When we encountered a few natives attacking us, using blow arrows, he found it early and kicked me away, so that I didn't hurt the vital point, when I hit Siam, in fact, the Siamese officers and soldiers are vulnerable." However, there are many indigenous tribes, which will cause a lot of trouble. Always in the jungle elusive, but unfortunately, they are unlucky, encountered, is we forgive the mountain guard, at the beginning, although we suffered a loss, but soon changed the tactics, before the move, first take the artillery to the mountain bombardment, those natives when they saw it, they were frightened, and then the brothers three or five people in a team to clean up, how dare they resist, to deal with them, in fact, they will be contained in the specially prepared village management, each village, must be mixed, what village people have, and then appoint a village elder, They will not dare to make trouble. There are three model battalions in Siam, with 9,000 people, stationed in various provinces, and several of them are also old brothers, one of whom is still the battalion officer of the model battalion in Ayutthaya, and is also our brother, hey...... This kid, usually very stingy, I don't look down on him, but he is willing to work hard, every time he fights with a white edge, he rushes to the forefront, dealing with the natives, he is the most methodical, what smoke, what squad clearing, I heard that the natives are afraid of him, now, Siam, is flat, he wants to transfer back to Jiaozhi, tell you, in the future, we are here, but there is a big battle to fight, why do you think the general wants to set up the Tiance Mansion, there are so many soldiers and horses to move, so much food, grass and ammunition hoarding, sue sù, it is for this, ha...... I'm lucky, I'm now being sent in the grenadier battalion of Jiaozhouwei, and I will have to use it in the future. ”

He chattered, and everyone else listened attentively, and when they heard many things that coincided with their own experiences, they all smiled reservedly, but there were not many people who interjected.

As for his origin, he reported his origin, saying that it was the Jiaozhou Wei grenadier battalion, and some people showed envious eyes, in the four guards, there were infantry battalions, artillery battalions, engineer battalions, grenadier battalions and reconnaissance companies and other configurations, among which the most popular ones were the artillery battalions and grenadier battalions, where the food was the best, and the selected ones were all tall people, holding the latest handballs in the shooting range every day, and at the end of the day, the shooting range became a sham, and the engineering battalion had to run to continue to reset the shooting range for them, one by one, they are full of oil.

As he was talking, a scribe came out of the scribe's room, the scribe here was actually also wearing a military uniform, holding a book in his hand, looked up, and said, "Xu Zhilong, the battalion officer of the Jiaozhou Wei Grenadier Battalion." ”

The man immediately stood up sharply, his stomped boots clicked, and he was afraid that the floor below him would inevitably be harassed by him, and he immediately said, "Obey." ”

So he straightened his uniform and walked in quickly.

After passing through the scribe's room, he entered the innermost Hao Fenglou duty room, Hao Fenglou was also dressed in military uniform, looking extremely heroic, he used a pen to review a few official documents in front of the case, heard Xu Zhilong coming in, but did not look up, just stretched out his hand, little finger pressed down, Xu Zhilong hurriedly stepped forward and saluted, and said: "Humble Xu Zhilong, I have seen an adult." Immediately, on the opposite side of the case, he restrained his grinning appearance, and sat down without saying a word.

Hao Fenglou continued to review a few official documents, but Xu Zhilong was surprisingly quiet at this time, and he didn't say a word until Hao Fenglou put down his pen and raised his head, so he gave Hao Fenglou a toothless smile.

"Are you Xu Zhilong?"

"Yes, the lowly dragon."

"The other day, you posted a proposal on grenadier tactics, didn't you? Well, I'll look for it......" Hao Fenglou flipped through it, found an official document from the mountain of cases, took it out, opened it and looked at it, his eyes fell on the official document, and said slowly: "Your construction is meaningful, very thought-provoking."
