It was originally one of the vassal states, divided and combined many times, but it has always been an inherent territory after the Yuan Dynasty.In modern times, this relationship is even more unbreakable.

The four seasons here are like spring, and the scenery is beautiful. The most unforgettable thing is the camellia here. The beauty of the elegant and delicate flowers is vividly interpreted by the people of Nanyun.

Jinma Mountain, hundreds of kilometers away from the China-Myanmar border, was still a lush barren hills and ridges at this time in the early years. There were only a few families, and most of them depended on hunting for their livelihoods. However, it is difficult for the Buddhist temples in Nanyun to be very prosperous here. Survive, dilapidated.

Beginning in April, a large number of migrant workers and soldiers suddenly appeared here. The original residents were moved away, and the flat land on the mountain was developed. Blocks of wooden houses were built, and some strange things were placed on the empty ground.

It's just that since the path that was originally covered with grass has been changed to a mainland, guards with guns and live ammunition are guarding it day and night to prevent people from approaching.

Once someone wanted to take a look, they would be rigorously questioned. If they weren't locals or told why they came, they would be arrested immediately, and they would not be released until the government had proof.

So after such things happened several times, no good deeds wanted to try again.

It is not far from Kuncheng, Dali, and even Yuebei, where it belongs to the barracks of the Fifth Division.

The main force of the Fifth Division was adapted from the main force of the Gui army led by Feng Zicai.In the Gaul War, Zhennanguan relied on more than 10,000 people to block several Gaul attacks, and the performance in the later period was also remarkable.

It won precious time for the strategic adjustment of the new army.Therefore, during the reform of the military system, he was listed as a division A, and Feng Zicai was awarded the rank of lieutenant general.After replenishing personnel from the original Guangxi and Yunnan, it expanded to three brigades. The Canadian division was under the artillery regiment, the guard regiment, and the engineering battalion.

Now that the theme of the camp has been completed, but there is still some finishing work, and the training of the Fifth Division has not fallen at all, the training of Cao Tian in the camp is hot, and some people are training in the field more than ten kilometers away.

"I said that our name is good for the guards, so I stand guard here every day to eat mud! I would have gone to the second brigade to serve as a first-class soldier!"

The two soldiers guarding the intersection were chatting, the one standing on the right said.

"Come on! You didn't see them like a monkey on a tree, jumping around in the ground. A few days ago, they went to climb those tens of feet of rock. If they were not tied with a rope, they would have fallen to death. Up."

Another slightly taller soldier said half-jokingly.

"Tired! Tired! But it's true! That's used to deal with devils. When can we fight with devils like us as guards? If I go back in the future, my mother-in-law asked me how many devils did I do?"

"What did I say? I said I've done a fart these years! Just stand guard!"

Said the soldier on the right.

"Stop talking! Someone is coming!"

Not long after the words fell, a few fast horses rushed to them, and a gleam of gold and silver on the shoulders of these people dazzled the two guards, but fortunately, they responded quickly and let them go after they checked the documents. .

When the few people raised their whip, they walked away in a hurry.Hot e-book www.huoretxt.com

"Oh! Admiral? Am I right? Is our teacher just a lieutenant general?"

"Are you blind? There is nothing wrong with the paperwork! Our country now has an admiral. Who do you think he will be?"

"This... won't it be Lord Zuo?"

"That's it? If I have his clothes, it's not right, the clothes of the officers at the back, wear them back and forth, and I will pick the best girls in our county."

Zuo Zongtang and the officers and guards behind them didn't pay attention to the soldiers in their spare time. He wanted to see how the army in the southwest was now.

A checkpoint like this has to come across ten places along the way, and there are not patrolling soldiers and secret guards on the side.

When he looked up inadvertently, there was still a lookout post on the commanding heights of the hills. The soldiers above were not lazy at all, and stood straight there.

This kind of atmosphere is very serious and tense, completely different from the previous green camp, let alone some rotten Eight Banners.He was very satisfied with this.

But if it's embroidered pillows, he needs to go to the military camp to see him.

Zuo Zongtang and the others finally reached the core position of the barracks. From a distance, they saw Feng Zicai, the commander of the Fifth Division, standing there, and they couldn't help looking over here.

The military uniform on his body was black and green, stained with a lot of dust, and his riding boots were also covered with a thick layer of mud.Had it not been for the two gold stars on his shoulders to show his status as a lieutenant general, it would be really easy to think of him as a veteran who had just slipped back from the paddy field.

"Master Zhongtang!"

When Feng Zicai saw the horse team stop, he walked forward quickly, came to the front of the red horse and gave a somewhat awkward military salute.

Zuo Zongtang turned over from the horse and jumped down directly. He raised his hand slightly, returned a military salute to Feng Zicai, and refused his move to lead the horse for himself.

"I heard that you Feng Zicai has made a fortune recently and you have taken away all the latest weapons of the military. I came here to open your eyes. You won't be unwelcome."

His face was slightly tired, but his voice was unusually loud.

After the last conversation in the Winter Warm Pavilion, Zuo Zongtang left the capital in secret, and went straight to the southwest to form the Southwest Group Army, ready to enter Burma. The ghost knew when the Grand Man would do it, so he hardly rested.

"How can the subordinates dare to hide themselves in front of Master Zhongtang?"

Feng Zicai said with a smile.

When the two were talking, the officers riding behind them all jumped off their horses.Xu Bangdao, the commander of the 11th Division, and Cheng Xueqi of the 18th Division, were both commanders appointed by Wang Guangxu. These people were also quite well-placed in the judgment of later generations. They were talents buried at that time.

Naturally, Wang Guangxu would not let them go, and they were not young anymore, they had already been tempered, and being a teacher would not wipe out their character...
