ideal era

39 can be more than 1

The night is deep, the stars are like rain, and the ground is full of fragrance.

Li wanted to face such a beautiful scenery. He wanted to copy two domineering Taizu words, but now he is not in the mood. His mind is full of the auspicious number: eighteen!

Li Xiang's long military boots are still stained with childish ** petals. As soon as he walked out of Liu Yuan, he was still in a very low mood. Occasionally, neat steps sounded in the silent long street, and the patrolling army passed by in a row. During the extraordinary period, although Li thought that although there was no curfew, after the nightfall in Hankou, the pedestrians on the street were still gone. Li wanted to move forward silently and walked to the garrison camp in Hankou.

This evening banquet was completely because he acted too eagerly and hastily, because two small victories in a row, he was a little flustered and regarded himself too high. Three days ago, he was still an unknown boy, just like a dark horse suddenly red stock. It is impossible for investors to establish long-term stability in him immediately. Yes, Li wants to lose to himself without knowing himself.

Li wants to be ashamed. If he doesn't think about himself every day, he will make trouble. I'm about to go to war with the Beiyang Army, and I have to weigh my weight well. Is it to concentrate your own superior forces and specialize in the weak troops in Beiyang? Or simply turn it into zero, go to the rear of Beiyang to fight a guerrilla war, and throw Hankou to Li Yuanhong. If Li Yuanhong doesn't guard Hankou, it's none of his own business. He doesn't care how many people die. Without his own development, the Republic of China can be established. Li wanted to have no good impression on a group of old men in Hankou. He tried his best to avoid Hankou being affected by the war, and tried to satisfy more of their interests, and received a reward of 180,000 yuan donated by them.

Li wanted to recall the vague history with malice. He did not know what the Yangxia War was, but in the end, he was defeated by Yuan Shikai, and he was also very miserable, which scared many investors to dare to fight with Yuan Dapangzi again. If Li wants to let history develop freely and history repeat itself, Hankou will be burned to ashes by the fire of war, and these old men will definitely die in pain.

Zeng Gao looked at Li and thought that he was still depressed just now. Now he has a gloomy smile. He won't have any harmful ideas and have the intention to persuade him. Marshal, why do you have to pay attention to such a small thing? It's not bad to have 180,000 yuan. No matter how small the grasshopper is, it is still meat. My grandpa, in order to fight against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it was also very difficult to make a sound in the two lakes. The revolutionary army is really aggrieved to protect them. But there are still hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Hankou, which is the real purpose of defending Hankou and the real purpose of our revolution.

Li Xiang smiled faintly and dissipated his gloom. He really shouldn't have given up thinking about this little thing before he made the decision to defend Yangxia. If you touch the oil on the soles of your feet this time, what about next time? It will run out of inertia. Zeng Gao reminded that the purpose of the revolution is not for these rich people, but for all the Chinese people who are suffering.

Li wanted to wave his hand, "Don't pay attention to it. I don't have such a broad heart, no more than your master."

Zeng Gao smiled bitterly, thinking that Li Xiang was still thinking about pulling hair from this group of iron roosters. In fact, they just didn't see the coffin and didn't shed tears. If you forced them again at that time, some of them couldn't help spitting blood. But it's too late for you to force them again. Your compromise this time makes them realize that you won't embarrass them. They will be bold to see you again, and they can't force them out again.

"Forcing them to cooperate with me only increases internal conflicts. Now our army is under a lot of external pressure, and there will be an internal indigestion, which will be offended. Li wants to force them anymore. If he wants to force them, Li wants to have a lot of means. Although Li wants to set up a medium-tide and military unification, he does not want to engage in the rule of terrorist agents such as Jinyiwei and fascism, which is more for the need of war against the enemy. Li wanted to deal with the war and always believed that whoever mastered the battlefield information would take the initiative on the battlefield.

Zeng Gao smiled and said, "What they value is nothing more than power and profit. As long as the marshal can really sit firmly in Hankou, they will cry and beg you."

Isn't the businessman patriotic? Why does Sun Yat-sen raise a large amount of money every year? Say that their patriotism is not as good as that of overseas Chinese? Lixiang is really willing to use power and profit to see them. They are all Chinese, and there is always patriotism. Speaking of which, my strength is not strong enough. If Sun Yat-sen's name is here, the result will definitely be the opposite. People can't eat into a big fat man overnight. If they blindly expand their army, they will become water-filled pork. Li Xiang has thousands of ways to make money. This is an advantage as a traveler. He is not really short of this money. Li thought that he was not Sun Yat-sen, so he lived by donating. I don't know how to make money. In the future, I can only rely on borrowing foreign debts to make a living. The financial difficulties established at the beginning of the Republic of China are also an important reason for compromising with Yuan Shikai.

But if you want to expand your strength, you need to recruit troops, but training is not something that can be done quickly overnight. Even if he spends a lot of money to copy a West Point military academy and specializes in the crash course that starts in December, Yuan Shikai has become the president of the Republic of China after the students graduate.

Li Xiang felt depressed for a while. He blamed himself for being late and starting too late. On second thought, Taizu started later than himself. He couldn't find such an excuse to be so full. He felt fierce in his heart. I am a time traveler. Who will I lose to!" I don't just sit in Hankou! Those old people are earthen buns, and I really don't like them. It's your boy's idleness. The things in the army are not annoying enough for you, and you are also in the mood to interfere in political affairs. You are a soldier doing politics.

Li Xiang's words were very serious, but there was no serious expression on his face. Zeng Gao looked in his eyes and knew in his heart that Li Xiang took the opportunity to complain. He was under so much pressure inside and outside. If he didn't vent it, he would really get sick. What's more, Zeng Gao has no right to interfere in political affairs except for leading troops to war. Li Xiang has clearly divided the military and politics, and no one can interfere with anyone. Gossip with Li Xiang is really not a soldier to be in politics. Zeng Gaomo didn't say anything, and Li Xiangqi crooked for a while, which was also very boring. Tang Yuewan, who was next to Li Xiang, looked funny but did not dare to laugh, and he was afraid of attracting Li Xiang's anger to himself.

How many ups and downs can Li Xiang sigh with a boring sigh? The long street with lights can't be seen that this is the largest city in China's inland. Dark clouds enveloped the night sky, and the stars and moon faded.

At the end of the streets and alleys, in small houses with closed courtyard doors, ordinary people can also smell the smell of danger from the bleak autumn wind blowing through the tense air. The revolutionary party rebelled. No matter how decadent the Qing Dynasty is, it will not give up. A big war that cannot be avoided will come in Yangxia. The people don't have much affection for the rotten Manqing court. If they can overthrow it, they will overthrow it. If the braids are cut, they will be cut, and there is no nostalgia. Those old people who cry to death are more like acting.

In a small house with black tiles and white walls, it is also a rich family in Hankou. Under the window of the east wing room, through the dim yellow kerosene light, the old woman with gray hair was approaching the kerosene lamp, holding a piece of green cloth autumn clothes that was washed white with pulp.

A new arhat's head was shaved on the edge of the old woman. The old man in a horse coat sat on the bench. He read a peanut in one hand and put it in his mouth and took a sip of it. The other hand was frustling the toes on the bench. After frustling, he sent his finger to the nose to smell it, and then began to frustrate the fierce one. The ribs are made of black shredded potatoes. The old man put on a cool face. Today, the old woman went to the market in the afternoon and brought him a pot of wine.

The old woman said, "The second baby sent the money back."

"Well, where are the people?" The old man looked around for a while. This precious son hasn't paid his salary for months. Will it all be sent to the Oriental Concession? Finally, I still remember that there was a father and mother at home, and I sent some money back.

"Don't look at it. He said that they were in a hurry to start work and went back. The official mechanical parts processing factory they work in has been taken over by the revolutionary military government. All the wages owed by the factory in the past have been repaid and doubled their wages. He doesn't want to lose such a good job. Of course, he has to work hard. The old woman seemed calm on her face, but she was very happy. The second child has such a good job, it can be said to be a good daughter-in-law.

The old man drank the cup in one breath, so he didn't have to drink it. He drank it every day after drinking. The two fingers frustrated more vigorously in front of the chest. "The street is saying that the revolutionary army is good. I really believe it now."

"I just hope that Marshal Li will defeat the Beiyang Army early, and the people in Hankou can live a good life. Amitabha! Bless the Bodhisattva." The old woman put on her clothes and recited the Buddha's rest.

"You don't need to recite the Buddha's name. There are rumors on the street. General Li is the arrival of the great god. He cleans up the chaotic world and inherits his destiny." The old man shook his head and talked while drinking and eating peanuts. He felt that what he had just said was very classic. This pig-feeding woman must not understand. Clean up the world and inherit the fate of heaven. He said that he heard it from Mr. Shu. If he heard too much, he would use it himself.

The old woman really didn't understand. She just looked at the old man's pride and didn't want to talk to him. The slightly cloudy eyes looked at the old man, and the newly shaved bald head was quite annoying. Did you shave with your bald head? How much did it cost?"

The old man bit the peanuts and touched the bare Luohan's head very proudly. "It doesn't cost money. In the morning, the revolutionary army cut braids on the street and surrounded many people. I was curious for a moment. When I went to see the fun, I was caught and cut my braids. I saw that the little children of the revolutionary army were shaved with an arhats head, and they were all very energetic. I said, shave a shave for me. The little child of the revolutionary army really shaved me. He is good at craftsmanship, no worse than the shaved master who carried a burden.

"I heard from Master Zhao this morning that his body is healthy and his parents. Your parents have cut the hair you gave you, and you can still laugh. The old woman suddenly remembered to buy vegetables in the morning and passed by Zhao's house. From afar, she heard Master Zhao shouting and scolding in the street. There was such a saying. Now it's quite appropriate, and I can't help but show off in front of the old man.

The old man was shocked. The old woman grew up. In the future, she should listen to Mr. Storyteller's plain words and remember more words. You can't compare it to a pig-feeding woman. What you said has nothing to do with cutting braids. I cut braids to support the revolution. The revolutionary party is so good that it gives our children a raise and exempt us a lot of taxes. I always want to show my support. I can't let people say that I am backward and say that I am feudal.

The old man finally came up with two new words. These two words are now very popular in Hankou. The old man feels that he is still following the footsteps of the times, or even ahead.

"Bids are nothing to do with revolution. Don't talk nonsense." The old woman felt that the old man was dizzy after drinking and was talking nonsense again.

"Master Zhao said this morning that there were a lot of people around the street in the morning, just watching Master Zhao take the lead in cutting his braids." At that time, he also felt that Master Zhao was reasonable. After cutting his braids, he felt regretful, so he thought of a set of words to stuff the old woman. After learning that the second child's wages had risen, he felt more and more that Master Zhao was reasonable, the braids were cut well, and he was righteous when talking to the old woman.

"Master Zhao is now being locked at home by Master Zhao and is ready to open an ancestral hall to rejuvenate the family law." Hearing the old man talking about Master Zhao, she remembered a disturbance in Zhao's house in the morning.

Is it so serious? The old man was nervous. Could it be the old woman who scared him? The old man even fell to the ground with the peanuts in his hand and forgot to pick them up. He asked carefully, "How is Master Zhao now?"

The old woman twisted for a long time, made the old man anxious to death, and then said, "Then it was released again."

The old man took a breath, and the old woman really scared herself. What's the matter?"

The old woman tossed her clothes under the kerosene lamp to see if there were any leaks. I heard that Master Liu sent an invitation, and Marshal Li invited him to the banquet. Who is Marshal Li? Master Zhao went to the banquet. Of course, he couldn't keep his braids. Mr. Zhao's own braids have been cut, and the matter of Mr. Zhao's braids has naturally been exposed. However, I heard that when Mr. Zhao cut his braids, he cried and put the braids up. Mr. Zhao said that after his death, the braids would be buried with him, and he could not go to see his ancestors with his bare head.

The old man picked up the peanuts on the ground, blew the plaster hard, threw it into his mouth, and glanced at the corners of his mouth. He also cried. It's true or false. I thought it was a play.

"Don't worry about whether Mr. Zhao is really crying or not. Did you bring back your braids? You can't go to see your ancestors with a bald head, can you? The old woman also suddenly remembered that the old man did not have a braid on his body when he came back.

"Hey! I really forgot. I'm going to find the baby who cut my braid tomorrow. I still know him. The old man patted his forehead and cut his braids. He only cared about excitement and regret, and forgot about it.

"Come together tomorrow morning and we will do this. I'm also going to send a letter to the second child and ask him to put away his braids. After mending the clothes, pack up the needle and thread. Old man, don't drink any more. I'm going to stop the lamp. If you waste kerosene like this, your son's wages will increase ten times, which is not enough for you to spend.

After the old woman finished speaking, she didn't wait for the old man to refute and directly blew the kerosene lamp. The room was dark, and there was only a slight starlight in the window. The old man muttered with dissatisfaction.

The barracks are already very lively. There are piles of bonfires on the playground, but they are also neatly arranged like a chessboard, showing the neatness and discipline of the barracks. In the middle of the playground, a long dragon was put together with the Eight Immortal Table, and the wine and food had been served. The soldiers in the revolutionary army have a little ink, and many soldiers have drunk foreign ink, which is very ingenious to make the night banquet of tonight's barracks into a Western buffet banquet. When the soldiers also learned from the British warships to hold a self-service dinner, those foreign adults swayed around with wine glasses and talked and laughed like that. However, they held a small flat porcelain cup in their hands, which looked a little awkward.

Li wanted to know that it was rare for the soldiers to have fun. When he came to the barracks, he told the guards that there was no need to inform them. He really wanted to know what the soldiers could do without a night banquet. As soon as the group quietly walked to the edge of the playground, they saw the hot scene. If you invite a few more emperor superstars to cheer up, it will be more like a large-scale celebration banquet held on Capitol Hill after the victory of the United States in World War II. These soldiers are really talented and know how to keep up with the times.

Zeng Gao saw the current situation and quickly gave Lin Tiechang a wince behind him. Lin Tiechang touched it and caught the soldier Zhao Youcheng.

Zeng Gao asked, "The marshal will make a mess for you. Didn't you make it like this?"

As soon as Zhao Youcheng saw that the marshals were all coming, he suddenly felt that the comrades had played too much? He secretly glanced at Li Xiang again. The general smiled warmly and was not dissatisfied. He also had the courage in his heart and said, "Everyone has seen the British sailors having a night banquet on the warship. They think it is very interesting, so they have a try. This is much more interesting than eating and drinking at a table. You can eat and drink, talk and laugh, and walk around. In English, everyone eats really well.

Li Xiang smiled gently, "Yes, I not only learned to eat buffet, but also learned a foreign language. I don't care that the dinner must be Chinese or Western, as long as it doesn't violate the discipline of the army, and the comrades can eat h. The Book of Songs says: The stone of the mountain can attack jade. With the help of external forces, it is missing. I think that comrades can find the advantages of others, which is good at learning; they can also make use of real life, which is the courage to practice; and in the face of the past city rules to break through innovation, dare to break the old ideas, and dare to innovate, we should encourage and praise. What reward should I give you?"

Zeng Gao's eyes widened. The marshal can now find out the truth in every little thing, and he is becoming more and more handsome.

When Lin Tiechang saw Zhao Youcheng, who was praised by Li and was still giggling, he shouted, "Thank you, commander!"
