Lu Yang did not go back to the pier, but was still happily drinking tea in the middle hall and chatting with Lu Wenyuan. Lu Wenyuan was not much older than Lu Yang, and the conversation between the two was very congenial. [No pop-up novel website]. Gradually the topic turned to content that men like to read and see. Chen Sigen couldn't help but ask: "Are you here to prepare for war?"
Lu Yang replied: "Because I love reading, I have a wide range of knowledge, and I look like a well-mannered young man with elegant posture and good looks. The engine command department thinks that I am more suitable to cooperate with you in hosting Sun Yuanhua. And after all, my Daishuang is a 901 gunboat with 130 guns. , has more firepower than the Fubo, and can perform shore bombardment missions when necessary. There are also new gadgets from Lin Shenhe on the ship... Not to mention that I am a foodie, and the orderly is also an expert in cooking, and he brought a lot of good things on board. , so as to calm Master Sun’s shock.”
The amount of information in these words is a bit large, and Chen Sigen and Lu Wenyuan will not be able to digest it for a while.
Chen Sigen quickly asked: "New thing? Is it the 92 infantry gun?"
Lin Shenhe's new gadget couldn't be anything else - Chen Sigen learned from veterans who had participated in the joint land and sea landing exercise before Operation Engine: In this exercise, the navy had experimentally used a brand-new artillery as an accompaniment. Attack - not a smoothbore gun like the m1857 or the 12-pounder.
Lu Yang replied, "It's not that fast. It's just a breech-loaded rifled gun. The reloading speed is much faster than the previous Navy 70 gun."
"Probably Miss 75, whom Lin Shenhe brags about all day long." Lu Wenyuan was not very interested in artillery. However, the development of new artillery and new weapons is a menstrual topic on the internal bbs. From time to time, Lin Shenhe would pretend to be mysterious and reveal some so-called inside information. Sometimes he would post a few blurry digital photos, and then delete them suddenly, adding a few words such as: "Black tea doesn't taste good." statement.
Sun Yuanhua was half asleep in bed, feeling thirsty, so he habitually called his servants to pour tea. A strange maid opened the door and came in. He couldn't help but be surprised: he remembered that the two servants who had served him these past few days were clearly his two servants.
He quickly sat up, only to find that he was not in the main room of the Yamen of Jianjun Road where he had slept yesterday, but in a strange room.
The room is not very tall, even a little humble. But the furnishings in the room are neat. It's also very simple. Apart from the bed under me, there was only a table and two chairs. There is also a crucifix hanging on the white walls. The window seems to be open, and you can see the dead branches in the yard. The bright sunshine has been shining in, but there is no cold wind in the house. .
Sun Yuanhua realized: There is glass on the window!
It is very luxurious to install glass on the windows - that kind of transparent and colorless flat glass is shipped all the way from Guangdong, and the price is so high that even senior officials like him dare not ask for it easily.
In the entire Dengzhou city, he dared to say that no house had such windows. Not to mention the cross on the wall.
This is where? He couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
There was no stove in the room, but it was as warm as spring. The bedding was soft and warm, and the mattress under the body was soft and yet hard. It was very comfortable.
At this time, the maid asked: "Sir, do you have any other instructions?" while serving half a cup of light tea and a small spittoon for gargling.
Sun Yuanhua was very polite when he saw her. He is also quite good at serving me, and I feel a little relieved: No matter where I am, the other party is so careful, and I don't think there will be any ill intentions for a while.
After rinsing her mouth first, the maid changed to new tea - also light tea. But it is excellent tea. Sun Yuanhua is from Jiading, and he is also very particular about tea tasting. As soon as the tea comes into his mouth, he knows that it is Zhejiang's new autumn tea.
Although he was a governor in Dengzhou, he was still on the front line and had to deal with a bunch of powerful warriors all day long. Such exquisite enjoyment is rare.
After drinking tea, he calmed down and asked, "Where am I?"
The maid smiled and said: "Sir, please be patient. My master said: Your husband was frightened a few days ago. Please rest for a while. If he doesn't want to sleep anymore, I will bring you a towel to help him wash..."
"Who is your master?" Sun Yuanhua was even more surprised - from the tone of the maidservant, it was obvious that he was not a rebel. But he was clearly captured by Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng a few days ago and detained in the Supervisory Army Road Yamen.
Before falling asleep last night, he was still hesitating whether to commit suicide.
But when I think about what the priests said: suicide is a violation of the "Ten Commandments". He was hesitant to go to hell forever.
Just fall asleep in this state of mind. Since being captured, Sun Yuanhua has never had a peaceful sleep - he has random dreams every time he closes his eyes. However, he slept very peacefully last night, without any dreams.
Could it be that God heard his prayer and showed him a new path? While Sun Yuanhua was surprised, he also had some expectations in his heart.
Immediately he said, "Please help me wash and change my clothes first."
The maid went out for a moment and fetched a box containing toiletries. He took off the bun and net towel for Sun Yuanhua, untied his bun, combed it again and again, then tied his bun again, and got a basin of warm water and gargle. A green salt willow branch was placed on the bed to wait for him to wash up, and he wiped the water droplets off his face with a thick and soft towel. A refreshing feeling immediately penetrated his heart and mind.
The maid then went out and fetched him some pieces of Yu Jing's underwear and a new cotton robe, and said to him:
"Master, please change your clothes. In the countryside, there are only some crude clothes, but they are all newly made and very clean."
After Sun Yuanhua was captured, although Kong Youde treated him very favorably, recruiting old people who had been separated from his family to serve him, and trying to find his personal manuscript luggage as much as possible, he was still a prisoner under his command. No abuse, just food and clothing. Where can I find such exquisite service and enjoyment?
"May I have your name?"
"Slave Cheng Lingsu."
"Good name."
The maid smiled and said, "The master has obtained it. I don't know if it's good or not." Then she said, "The master said that if you have washed yourself, please have breakfast first and then see you in the flower hall."
Yuanhua also felt hungry.
After a while, the maid brought out a plate with white porridge and pickles, both of which were Jiangnan flavors, which aroused his thoughts about water shield perch.
After breakfast, the maid led the way out of the bedroom. In front of him was a small but well-kept courtyard. As the maid walked through the alley beside the yard, turned a few corners, and walked into a hall, she saw a young man already standing in the hall, looking at her with a smile.
He knew this person, it was Lu Wenyuan. The Jesuit priests who came to Shandong from Zhejiang to reclaim wasteland originally asked him to take care of him.
Lu Wenyuan took a step forward and bowed deeply: "Sir, you are frightened!"
"How dare! How dare!" Sun Yuanhua hurriedly returned the gift, feeling mixed in his heart for a moment. After Kong Youde rebelled, Mr. Lu once sent a messenger to remind him to pay attention to the movements of the Liao people in the city and to guard against intensification of conflicts between natives and guests. He also specifically mentioned that Geng Zhongming might not be reliable because of his feud with Huang Long. He was very careful.
What happened later almost all confirmed Lu Wenyuan's reminder. Unexpectedly, this young man from out of town could have such insightful views on the situation in Dengzhou.
"Ashamed, ashamed." Sun Yuanhua said and Lu Wenyuan sat down as guest and host respectively, and the maid brought tea.
"Where is this place?" This is the question that Sun Yuanhua is most concerned about right now.
"This is Qimu Island in Huang County - the student's village - sir, he is very safe now."
Sun Yuanhua remained silent. He knew about Qimu Island. When Mr. Lu wanted to open up wasteland and buy land in Shandong, the land on Qimu Island was purchased with his help. Since he was on Qimu Island, he was obviously rescued by Mr. Lu in front of him. This was of course a great good thing, but to be able to unknowingly take him away overnight from the heavily guarded Dengzhou City among thousands of troops. Go, it's almost like a "Red Line Stealing Box" thing about a strange swordsman, which can't help but make him suspicious.
Could it be that they are related to Kong Youde? What kind of deal did Li Jiucheng reach in exchange for himself? Sun Yuanhua felt that this was the most likely possibility - although he still didn't know what the other party's purpose was.
However, Lu Wenyuan was introduced to the church by Guo Jujing, a priest whom he greatly admired. At least he did not have to doubt this person's motives.
As if he had guessed what Sun Yuanhua was thinking, Lu Wenyuan smiled and said, "We have also rescued Sir's two servants. We will continue to serve Sir tomorrow."
The presence of these two close associates of Sun De who witnessed the rescue process was more convincing than his empty words.
"Thank you very much, sir." Sun Yuanhua bowed his hand, "I just don't know what the purpose of sir is to take great risks to save Sun from danger?"
Lu Wenyuan thought: It's here, this is expected. He had already fully exchanged views with the Great Library and had done a lot of homework on how to carry out the work of Sun Yuanhua. Now I feel confident.
"First, it is for the people of Shandong. The people of Dongsan Prefecture were originally suffering from hunger and cold, and now they are suffering from war. As believers in God, how can we sit back and watch so many lambs die in original sin?"
It is the great righteousness of the church. Even if Sun Yuanhua does not believe it, he cannot refute it.
"Second, it's for Mr. Lu." Lu Wenyuan said eloquently, "Sir was trapped in the hands of thieves, and his life and death depended on the whims of Kong Youde, Li Jiucheng and other gangsters. If he hadn't been so kind to them, I'm afraid he would have died long ago. It’s his hand!”
When Lu Wenyuan said this, Sun Yuanhua showed a look of dejection - his director in Dengzhou used Liao people and Liao generals to care for the original Dongjiang tribe. He did not expect that he and the entire Dengzhou would eventually be destroyed by these people. hand.
When Dengzhou fell, all the firearms, weapons, horses, grain, and military pay that had been accumulated in the city for many years were lost. The army that he had personally organized and hired Folangji to train was also wiped out. Years of hard work were ruined. (To be continued)rq
