The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 145
Zhenjiang, Jinzhou, now has 70 people, and there are more than [-] officials and military officials in total.

More than five hundred people are Tang Qing'an's right-hand man in governing the two places and commanding the army, so it is necessary to reach an agreement with these people.

Tang Qing'an left Zhenjiang and went to Shicheng Island outside Zhuanghe.

Shicheng Island falls in the middle of Jinzhou and Zhenjiang.

Civil servants Xie Youcheng, Feng Shengzhi, Gu Yingshi, Li Chengxian, Wang Xuan, Fang Shizhen, Xu Hui, Dai Guowei, Chen Heng, Zheng Guoliang, Wang Hao, Deng Zhang, Tao Jie...

Military officer Zhao Gouyong, He Kuan, Chen Rui, Li Shenghu, Chen Kaiwu, Wu Zhenmeng, Zhang Bo, Peng Dahai, Guo Ying, Li Qi, Zhu Xiu...

A total of 45 civil and military personnel, all received orders from the general.

When Feng Shengzhi and the officials from Jinzhou took the fast boat to Shicheng Island, they happened to meet Li Rujing, the general's personal guard, and Xu Jufei was at the pier.

"Why did the general summon you?"

Li Rujing shook his head.

"I don't know, the general didn't tell us, but let us here to welcome you big brothers." Li Rujing was wearing a military armor, which was different from the hippie smile he used to have in Jinzhou.

"This kid looks like that now."

Feng Shengzhi pointed at Li Rujing and smiled to his colleagues behind him.

"After all, it was trained by the general alone, so it must not be bad." Everyone said with a smile.

Feng Shengzhi led the crowd away and patted Li Rujing on the shoulder.

"Be careful with errands and do things well."

"Awake."

Li Rujing replied honestly.

After seeing the general, everyone was taken to their respective places of residence. On the way, they saw a flat place where a large shed was being rush-built, which should be used for them to discuss matters.

Shicheng Island is located in the east of the Yellow Sea, at the east end of Changshan Island, only seven miles away from Zhuanghai, and seven miles away from Shoulong Island in the east.

There are also nine islands and reefs such as Pedestrian Tuozi and Huituozi in the surrounding area.

The air on the island is clear, the scenery is beautiful, the forests are lush, and everything is green as far as the eye can see, and there are new crops planted.

The general entrusted someone to bring back the fanmi from Yunnan. After several trials, it began to be planted on islands that were not suitable for large-scale farming.

Shicheng Island is a place where rice is grown. Feng Shengzhi went to the field ridge to watch it, but he didn't see why.

As the number of refugees migrating from Shicheng Island began to increase, the number of roads also began to increase, and they were all winding paths made by people.

Along the winding roads, scattered houses fell down.

Over the past few years, from Changxing Island to Jinzhou, Feng Shengzhi was so busy that he forgot his original leisure appearance.

After dinner, Feng Shengzhi and his colleagues took advantage of the rare free time to change into ordinary clothes, and they didn't argue about the direction, just followed one path.

The more you walk, the more curved and narrower you are, until in the end there is no road, only a few thatched houses.

The thatched house was covered with a thick layer of mud, and its original appearance could no longer be seen, and some chickens, ducks and geese were even raised.

Some had their tails cut off, some had their left wings cut off, some had their right wings cut off, and the corners of Feng Shengzhi's mouth curled up.

This is the mark that farmers make for their own poultry, so as not to be confused.

It’s been a long time since I saw this picture of a leisurely farmhouse.

The entire Jinzhou is full of busyness, whether it is officials or ordinary people, they are all like a spinning top that has been pumped.

"The birds love the old forest, the pond fish think about the old abyss. Opening up the wilderness in the south, keeping the humble and returning to the garden. The square house is more than ten acres, and there are eight or nine thatched houses. The back eaves are shaded by elms and willows, and the peaches and plums are in front of the hall..."

Feeling excited, Feng Shengzhi called out to the people in the house from outside the fence, wanting to beg for a drink.

An old man came out, walking with a limp, filled seven cents in a chipped porcelain bowl, and held it to Feng Shengzhi with both hands.

Feng Shengzhi took it and didn't drink it, but looked the old man up and down.

"Has the elder ever read a book?"

The old man nodded.

"I can only recognize some words."

Feng Shengzhi finished drinking the water, and respectfully handed the bowl back. After the old man took it, seeing that the stranger had no extra requests, he turned and went back to the room.

"Elder, it's a pity that this bowl is missing a mouth, otherwise it would be an excellent object."

"It's nothing to be sorry about. The left and right sides are just objects. They can hold water and eat."

"You recognize me?"

Feng Shengzhi smiled.

The old man shook his head.

"Although you are wearing ordinary clothes, the general has come here recently, and many officials have followed. You should be an official too."

"Is there anyone else in the house?"

"There is a son who married a widowed woman last year and went to work in the fields. There is also a granddaughter who ran out to play with those wild boys. I don't know where she went."

"Why not?"

Feng Shengzhi asked tentatively.

The old man was calm and explained to the curious official.

"The previous family suffered a catastrophe. My wife, eldest son, eldest daughter-in-law, and grandson were all killed. The granddaughter and youngest son were left behind. Thanks to the general's kindness, they were able to escape from the clutches of the clutches and settle down here.

Although the days are tough, I am very peaceful. I have nothing to worry about, I just want to watch my granddaughter grow up safely, and find a husband's family for her. I will have no regrets in my life. "

Hearing this, Feng Shengzhi became moved.

The old man in front of him spoke normally, but there was something extraordinary in his words.

"Don't you want revenge?"

"I'm here to farm, save for the general, teach young children how to read in my free time, and wait for the general to avenge the old man."

The old man laughed.

Feng Shengzhi cupped his hands and bid farewell to the old man.

"Grandpa, I beat up the eldest son of the Li family, but he won't listen to me." At this moment, a girl ran back.

"Fight well, fight well, this kid is very skinny."

"Didn't my grandfather teach me that there is a tree in the south, and Ge Xun is tired of it. You are only a gentleman, and you are blessed with Suizhi... let me be friendly and tolerant to others?"

Before Feng Shengzhi walked far, he couldn't help laughing when he heard the voice behind him.

When Feng Shengzhi returned, his colleagues asked him where he had been, and he only smiled and said that he had met a great talent.

"In that case, why not invite me?"

The colleague asked puzzledly.

"If the old man's ambition is not here, don't disturb the old man's wish."

The colleagues stopped asking, and told Feng Shengzhi that Gu Yingshi was here.

Look north and south Feng.

Some people describe the two of them like this now.

Feng Shengzhi used to be the most trusted by the general, Gu Yingshi came from behind, and now he has the potential to surpass Feng Sheng's status.

Feng Shengzhi's mentality has changed now, and he said with a smile.

"He's here, which means he's dealt with Zhenjiang's affairs. It can be seen that Zhenjiang is very stable now, which is a happy thing."

Colleagues were amazed again and again that this person was so generous.

Another day later, when everyone arrived, they all came to the shed that had been built, and arranged the benches, tables and chairs.

The literati all sat in the north, and the warriors sat in the south.

The guards poured tea and water for everyone. After a while, when Tang Qing'an arrived, everyone stood up to greet them.

"General."

"General."

"All sit down."

Tang Qing'an smiled and raised his hand, motioning for everyone to sit down.

After everyone was seated, he didn't sit down, but stood in front with a smile on his face.

"Nowadays, there are many places that have been restored, but it is not easy for me to meet everyone. It turned out that when we were in Jinzhou, Mr. Gu and I would see each other every day.

I did some calculations before I came, and I didn't see Mr. Gu for half a year. Mr. Gu is doing well now. "

When Gu Yingshi heard the words, he got up and smiled.

"Everything is fine. I also miss the general very much. To this day, I think of Changxing Island, as if it has been a lifetime. The general's talent is extremely admirable.

We are really mediocre, without Liu Xiao's talents, we can only follow the general to recover Liaodong, how lucky we are. "

"Mr. Gu is too modest."

Tang Qing'an smiled.

"Golden State is where it is today, and sir has most of the credit."

"Don't dare."

After talking and joking with Gu Yingshi, Tang Qing'an exchanged greetings with Wang Xuan, Fang Shizhen, Xu Hui and other old people who followed him a long time ago.

Then he looked at Dai Guowei and Chen Heng, the newly promoted civil servants.

"You are all great talents, and you have managed the localities very well. Whether it is your own tasks or the sudden wave of refugees a few years ago, you have done everything without any mistakes.

The 70 people in Zhenjiang, Jinzhou should thank you, and you are worthy of being their parents. On behalf of the 70 people, I would like to thank you. "

Everyone got up quickly, saying what you said to me one after another, saying that it was the general's credit.

Tang Qing'an waved his hand to make everyone sit down again, and then looked to the south.

"When I first went to sea, people in Liaodong were panic-stricken and fearful of barbarism like a tiger, but there were 800 people who were willing to follow me to the sea and go deep into the enemy's territory. These people were all warriors.

Chen Kaiwu, Li Shenghu, Wu Zhenmeng, Zhang Bo, Liu Tong..."

The people from the former Donghai camp who had read their names got up one after another.

"You are my pillar of strength, without you, we would not be where we are today."

Tang Qing'an laughed.

"I don't dare to receive this merit. I was just an ordinary military household. I can follow the general all the way to today. I have no regrets in this life."

All the generals said one after another.

"You are all fine, sit down."

After finishing speaking, Tang Qing'an looked at Li Bosheng, Huayan, Deng Xing, Jiang Wanhua and others again,

"Thinking of the first battle so far, I waited for the whole body to work together, and with a meager force, I defeated the Jinfu and the two states, and was able to recover. This is the high righteousness of all of you."

Li Bosheng, Huayan, Deng Xing, Jiang Wanhua, generals from Jinzhou and Fuzhou, all stood up one after another.

"I should really be grateful to the general. If it weren't for the general, I would still be a second minister and humiliate my ancestors."

Tang Qing'an waved his hand.

"It's not your fault, it's the court's fault. Over the years, you have fought countless battles, and your solid military exploits have thoroughly proved your bravery.

I hope that in the future, we can continue to win every battle and turn our Jinzhou Army and Zhenjiang Army into an iron army! "

"I will take orders, and I will never fail the general's expectations."

Hearing these people's words, Xu Hui from the north had mixed feelings in his heart.

He remembered back then, when he discussed with his elder brother about the court's arrival, the elder brother firmly said that he had to do it anyway.

Now the words are still ringing in my ears, and the eldest brother has already sacrificed.

"Li Qi, Zhu Xiu, Wang Yugong, Li Chengcai, Zhao He..."

These generals got up one after another, their eyes full of eagerness.

They were all from the Liao people, and they had blood feuds with the barbarians. If it weren't for the generals, who could make decisions for them and take them to revenge.

"I'll wait, I swear to follow the general!"

Everyone rushed to show their aspirations.
