A New Army platoon leader guarding the dock was frightened when he saw the New Army commander's small steamer rushing towards the waterway in front of the dock like lightning.

He couldn't figure out who was sitting inside, so he quickly shouted, "Everyone stand at attention... salute..."

The soldiers hurriedly "pop..." stood up, hammered their chests, raised their heads and saluted in a march.

"Thud, tug, tug, tug, tug, tug, tug, tug..."

The motor of the small steamer rotates at high speed, like a Maxim machine gun firing.

The small steamer with the military flag flying quickly passed through the waterway in front of the pier, showing no signs of slowing down.

The water waves split open by the arrow-like suddenness spread out layer by layer to both sides, slamming against the river bank, stirring up thousands of waves and splashing the soldiers' trousers wet.

The soldiers on the dock had no complaints, only respect and envy.

Chen Tianhua was standing in the cabin and looking forward, looking majestic and unblinking.

He still remembered the time when he took the steamer to Hangzhou from the Amitabha Temple at his doorstep and met Brother Xun. He was so crowded and embarrassed.

He vowed to buy a boat, but he didn't expect it to happen soon.

The small fire wheel could only look up at the beginning, but now it has been transformed.

It is true that life is like a dream and everything is unpredictable!

Along the way, Chen Tianhua was full of emotions.

After leaving the West Pier, the small steamer took the Grand Canal and headed northwest. The target was Huzhou first.

…

Jiangning Mansion, also known as Nanjing, is located on the edge of the Yangtze River in the south of the Yangtze River. It is surrounded by water on three sides and crisscrossed by rivers. It is a geomantic treasure land connected by mountains and rivers.

Together with Beijing and Xi'an, it is known as the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Eastern Jin Dynasty split. Chen Xianba, a native of Wuxing in Chaozhou, unified the south of the Yangtze River and established his capital in Nanjing. The capital was named Jiankang, the country was named Dachen, and the history was called Nanchen.

The Southern Chen Dynasty was finally destroyed by the Northern Sui Dynasty. The leader of the Later Chen Dynasty, Chen Shubao, was licentious and lost his ancestral foundation. He was reviled by later generations and will be infamy for thousands of years.

Later, the Southern Tang Dynasty also established its capital here.

The natural chasm of the Yangtze River is a place where wars broke out between the heroes from the south of the Yangtze River and the north of the Yangtze River.

Back then, Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty defeated all the heroes and established Nanjing as the capital, which resulted in the city of Nanjing being carefully planned and constructed.

Zhu Yuanzhang became the capital of the Han people in the south of the Yangtze River, Nanjing, and the first emperor to unify the north and the south, which shows his ambition to dominate the world.

It is a pity that his descendants are not as heroic as him.

The Ming Dynasty was finally destroyed by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and Nanjing became Jiangning Prefecture, a famous city in the south of the Yangtze River during the Qing Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, Hong Xiuquan staged the Jintian Uprising, established the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and established Nanjing as its capital. This went on for more than ten years.

Nanjing also created Zeng Guofan, a Han minister of the Qing Dynasty.

After the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was destroyed, Nanjing returned to its old name: Jiangning Prefecture.

No matter how hard it is, the current Jiangning Fucheng has spread over hundreds of miles and has become the political, economic and cultural center of the Jiangnan region in the Qing Dynasty. It is truly the largest city in Jiangnan.

Viewed from a distance from the river, the inner and outer walls of Jiangning Fucheng are the old foundations used by Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty to build the capital. It is said that the base is six feet thick, the top is three feet wide, and the top is nine feet high, with extensions every thirty feet.

The convex wall outside the city.

That was used to shoot enemies climbing the city walls.

There are also blue brick and tile tubes on the city wall for drainage.

After a day and night of non-stop driving, Chen Tianhua and his crew arrived at Xiaguan Pier on the morning of the next day, the thirteenth day of the lunar month.

Xiaguan Wharf is the most important and largest Yangtze River wharf in Jiangning Prefecture. Its size was comparable to Shanghai Shiliupu Wharf at the time.

The ship number of the small fire wheel is a military card, and the head of the boat is also the military flag. There are many water levels along the way, including the shallow water cannon boat patrolling and anti -smuggling on the Yangtze River. They are all inspection and full green lights.

The small fire wheel is of course entering the military area. According to regulations, the small fire wheels are not allowed to enter the inland river of Jiangning Prefecture without the permission of the Nanyang New Army.

"Zuo just listened to the order, I went ashore from here, and when I entered the city, I saw Xiangshuai. I only took the Mavericks to accompany.

Chen Tianhua told.

Except for themselves, they are all dressed. This posture not only cannot enter the city, but also passes to Zhang Zhidong's ears. This is annoying.

He was ready to let Song Xiaowei fade up his clothes, change the plainclothes, without any guns, only bring a defense and waist knife, follow him into the city.

"But the young master, the Lord Jie Tong has instructed to ensure your safety. You only bring the Mavericks into the city and let me wait for a meal in Xiaguan to wait for meals.

Zuo Gang was shocked and threw all bodyguards at the dock, which is equivalent to entering the city alone. In case of attacks, this cannot be explained to Master Li.

Zuo Gang's words naturally received the recognition of the other four guards. They nodded and said, "Please think twice."

"Okay, you have to obey my orders when you go out. Besides, I need you to protect it by myself? This is so fixed, there is no doubt." Chen Tianhua sank with a low face.

Seeing that the master said that the words were said, Zuo Gang did not say anything, so he had to obey it.

In this way, Chen Tianhua took Mavericks to the north gate of Jiangning Prefecture.

In the red sun shining in the sun, looking at the majestic city in the distance, Chen Tianhua feels thousands of.

As a crossed person, in the face of the ancient capital of the Qing Dynasty, the ancient city of the ancient city, the ancient city of the ancient and simple, and domineering, has a strong sense of glory and mission in his heart.

Song Xiaowei stood with Chen Tianhua's shoulders, looking at the straight road with a wide wide foot under his feet, and a silly dizziness.

"It's too big!"

Song Mavericks, who had never seen Dacheng Pond, only had Changxing in my mind, and Hangzhou Mansion has never seen much.

When I saw the city of Jiangning, I only sighed in the surprise.

"Don't stand stupid, let's go ..."

Chen Tianhua drank low.

After passing the Gate of Beiwai City, I entered the inner gate, and I passed the Wenwen of the hand and handed it over again and again. The waist knife carried with you must be registered, which is very strict.

The location of the Governor of Liangjiang, located in the middle of the city, Hanzhong Street in the later generation, in the Presidential Palace of the Republic of China.

This was originally the site of the Hanwang Mansion during the Ming Dynasty, and the place of the King's Mansion of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

After Chen Tianhua entered Chengtianmen, in the inner city, near Xinjiekou of the later generation, he found the reception post of Jiangning Mansion.

This is the post hall of the senior officials, which belongs to the high -end reception venue of the court, which is equivalent to the government's guest house of later generations.

Chen Tianhua chose the post hall, not a high -end inn, mainly considering safety.

Because he has the official discs issued by Zhejiang to wipe the gates, which is equivalent to introducing letters of government units at a stage of later generations.

The structure in the post hall is a bit like a series of villas in later generations.

After entering the chamber, I found that the living facilities here are complete, and it is different from ordinary post officials on the road.

Chen Tianhua has lived in Shaoxing, and Wu Xing's post hall is all the upper rooms in the post. It is the best room.
Chapter completed!
