Rebirth of the Qing Empire

Chapter 109 I Know You Will Leave Eventually

Kang Fan was originally allocated a royal palace in the capital, but then the capital was renovated like the central cities in other provinces in the country. Except for the Forbidden City, which was still reserved for the Manchu royal family, all the royal palaces, gardens, sacrificial sites and

All official residences and other residences were nationalized, and most of the royal residences and official residences were changed to

A small part of the seat of national administrative agencies has been allocated to the people of the capital. Sacrificial sites such as the Temple of Heaven, the Temple of Earth, etc. and royal gardens such as the Summer Palace, Old Summer Palace, Nanyuan, etc. have been converted into parks or museums managed by government departments to provide public services to the people.

It is open to the public free of charge and has become a place for citizens to enjoy leisure and entertainment, travel and receive patriotic education.

In this round of rectification, the original important ancient buildings such as government offices, city walls, temples, etc. in the capitals of all provinces across the country, including the capital, have been well protected and complemented the newly built modern buildings.

Completed the inheritance, connection and co-prosperity of old and new cultures.

Therefore, Kang Fan responded to the call and did not occupy the royal palace. Instead, he chose to hand it over to the public. He has been working at the Nankou base on the outskirts of Beijing. The "Army No. 1" aircraft is parked in the hangar of the base airport.

Ready to take off at any time.

After many expansions and continuous improvements, the Nankou base has now become the seat of the Ministry of National Defense of the Qing Empire and the base of the New First Army of the National Defense Army, which is the former New First Army of the Bac Ninh Army.

The base has more than 60,000 permanent personnel, which is almost equivalent to the size of a county-level city. The command center in the base has a remote radio command and control system and the radio command and control systems of the military districts of the National Defense Forces, the fleets of the navy and the internal defense forces.

The control system is connected to the Internet, and Kang Fan cannot leave here.

You can command any of the above-mentioned arms at home, and you can even personally command an army or a military-level unit of the interior guard force or a naval fleet formation! Moreover, it is located in Shanxi, Zhili and Mongolia provinces away from Kang Fan's usual places.

The National Training Center of the National Defense Forces at the junction is not far away, which is convenient for work.

This national training center covers an area of ​​nearly 3,000 square kilometers and is the largest and most modern training base in the world. The center has diverse terrain and complete facilities, including mountains, jungles, rivers, lakes, grasslands, deserts, and cities.

Simulated battlefield training facilities such as villages, roads, railways, trenches, bunkers, etc. can carry out actual combat exercises ranging from division level to company level and all tactical training of the National Defense Forces, and can train more than 50,000 troops throughout the year.

Although each military district of the National Defense Forces and the Army has its own training base, they all come here for regular rotation training and actual combat exercises to test the level of combat skills, summarize gains and losses, and continuously improve and promote new training subjects or regulations of the National Defense Forces and the Army. Because they are stationed here

He is leading an imaginary enemy force - "Dragon Claws" - composed of outstanding officers and soldiers selected from the elite troops of each military region of the Army.

"Dragon Claw" is a multi-arms combined regiment, equipped with the most advanced weapons and equipment. Moreover, the newly developed weapons and equipment of the National Defense Force are tried out by this regiment first, and then based on the trial results, they are mass-produced and distributed to all units or returned to the factory.

Improvement. The whole regiment is in a state of actual combat training all year round. Here they face challenges from all levels of army forces from all over the country. They will do whatever it takes to defeat their opponents and be as ruthless as real enemies in the confrontation.

Although the Marine Corps of the National Defense Force, the Internal Security Forces, and the Police Force, which require land combat skills training, all have their own training bases, they are far from the national training center in terms of scale, software and hardware facilities. Therefore,

, in order to improve their combat skills, these troops will also come here for observation, exchange, training and exercises.

Since the Nankou base is also the place where Kang Fan often receives visiting foreign friends and is the window for external work, it is a standard garden base, with natural scenery and artificial buildings cleverly integrated, neat and beautiful.

The trees that Kang Fan and the officers and soldiers planted by the reservoir back then were already towering into the clouds and with luxuriant branches. The officers and soldiers at the base would plant new trees every year. Gradually, the trees spread from the reservoir to all parts of the base.

It has expanded and is now connected with the forest at the foot of Yanshan Mountain, which is lush and pleasing to the eye.

The base reservoir has also been expanding over the years and has been several times its original size. The water surface is sparkling, the shore is covered with reeds, trees are shady, fish and birds are swarming in groups, and the scenery is beautiful.

There is a seaplane landing field built on the flat shore to the south of the reservoir, which can take off and land "Sea Eagle" and "Big Bird" seaplanes. It is next to the Army Aviation Airport in the base and shares hangars, aprons and maintenance facilities.

Wait. If Kang Fan wants to go to a base of the Navy or Coast Guard, he can take a seaplane directly from here.

Kang Fan's official residence is located at the foot of the mountain to the north of the base, far away from the camps of officers and soldiers. It is an independent three-story villa with a basement, built in a forest clearing next to the reservoir, not far from the base train station.

In the distance, you can hear the whistle of a train from time to time.

The villa is surrounded by a fence composed of low shrubs such as roses, lilacs, thorn roses, etc., which is almost as tall as a person. Inside the fence is a flat lawn. From the top of the villa, you can see the light of the water, the color of the mountains, the shadows of the trees, and the appearance of flowers.

The view is full of views, and it has the style of Fenhe Camp.

Now, although the Qing Empire has not officially changed the name of the country, the name "China", which means "Chinese Empire", has been adopted by more and more countries in the world in diplomatic rhetoric, and has also been generally accepted by the people of all ethnic groups in the Qing Empire.

.As a result, the old name "Qing Empire" was gradually forgotten by people, and the new name "China" became known to people all over the world after World War I. Naturally, the Qing Empire became China.

Beijing is still the capital of China and continues to exist as the administrative center of China. Of course, it is also the main office location of Zhong Hanqiang, Mei Xiang’s classmates, etc. Therefore, everyone often comes to the Nankou base for gatherings, which is quite lively.

As Kang Fan's personal secretary, He Shuixiu often helped Kang Fan with various administrative affairs in the official residence. With her unique meticulousness, she handled everything here in an orderly manner during Kang Fan's days out, which really helped Kang Fan.

Be less busy.

Kang Fan was still busy with He Shuixiu's life-long affairs at first, but He Shuixiu was determined not to remarry, so the two of them were quite angry.

Later, when He Shuichang finally couldn't bear it and told everything about He Shuixiu, Kang Fan was so shocked that he never mentioned He Shuixiu's marriage again. For He Shuixiu, Kang Fan's inner guilt would probably last forever.

. And he also felt guilty towards these two women, Mei Xiang and Judy, and really didn't know what to do.

Peaceful days are hard-won. Those heroes who sacrificed their blood and lives for the tranquility of the motherland and the happiness of the people should always be remembered and respected by future generations. Their relatives should enjoy the meticulous care of the motherland and the people. China is now in the process of

As she becomes stronger, she has more and better choices to do more and better things for these heroes and their relatives.

And I don’t know which year started. No matter how busy he was with his official duties, Kang Fan always took time to visit the graves of the martyrs or visit the families of the martyrs. He never stopped.

As time goes by, more and more martyrs’ cemeteries are being built across the country, and more and more white marble martyrs’ tombstones are inlaid with eye-catching dragon flag patterns. The young faces of the National Defense officers and soldiers who have sacrificed in previous wars are forever frozen.

At that moment, they were majestic

His body turned into the palm-sized black and white photo on the white tombstone. And Kang Fan also entered middle age by sweeping tombs year after year. Although his youth was gone, his life continued, and

But these martyrs can no longer feel the bright sunshine.

This year, the two of them came to a martyrs cemetery built on the hillside east of Ningwu County. All officers and soldiers from Ningwu Prefecture were buried here, including the former Blue Demon team members who had followed Kang Fan for many years.

"Brothers, go on your way..." Kang Fan would repeat this sentence every time he went to a tombstone.

He Shuixiu held Kang Fan's arm tightly and followed suit, her eyes filled with tears.

Speaking of which, He Shuixiu has grown into a real soldier under Kang Fan's influence, and she is also a woman who can directly help Kang Fan in his career. Kang Fan doesn't know whether he is right or wrong in doing so. A delicate and wealthy family

Miss Ning allowed herself to be molded into a major officer who was capable of both literary and military skills. Could it be explained by the arrangement of fate?

"In the past few years, there have been more and more martyrs' cemeteries in various places, and more and more brothers have died. I can't bear to look at them anymore. I'm neglecting you!" Kang Fan went around in front of each tomb in turn, marking each grave.

They filled it with new soil, put sacrifices on it, then lay down under one of the tombstones, closed their eyes, and let the tears flow quietly.

He Shuixiu lifted up Kang Fan's head and placed it in her arms, then straightened her upper body, squinted her eyes, and looked at the peaceful Ningwu City below the mountain. The cool mountain breeze blew her pretty face, and her hair fluttered in the wind.

Two intoxicating blushes bloomed in the bright morning light, contrasting with the swaying wild flowers beside her.

Ningwu City is no longer what it used to be. The original old city is still on the north bank of the Huihe River, while the new city is located on the south bank of the Huihe River. The two cities are connected by the Huihe River Bridge. The roads and railways that communicate with the outside world extend along the mountains on the south bank of the Huihe River.

distant, fire

Stations and bus stations were also built in the new city. The city wall surrounding the old city has lost its original defensive purpose and is only used as a historical relic under the protection of the local government for people to play. The top of the city is covered with luxuriant grass.

, moss everywhere.

Viewed from the mountain, the yellowish Hui River flows slowly eastward, with uneven heights on both sides, well-proportioned buildings and wide, flat streets, as well as an endless stream of cars and horses, etc., hidden in the lush woods, in the spring breeze.

Sometimes it flashed clearly, sometimes it flashed vaguely. In the sky, two double-winged agricultural and forestry aircraft sprayed with bright red and yellow paint

Planes buzzed back and forth in the mountain forest to the east of the city, spraying white pesticides. A majestic electric locomotive dragged a long train of carriages roaring past the railway below the mountain, although it did not spray like a steam locomotive.

The clouds blew out the mist, making a sonorous sound, but Kang Fan and He Shuixiu could still feel its power from the shaking of the earth beneath them.

Zhong Hanqiang's original idea of ​​returning to that era from the Fenhe Camp in Ningwucheng has long been forgotten by everyone, and of course Kang Fan is the same. But Kang Fan still firmly believes that everyone can return to their era, because he has always believed that although

At present, no one can figure out how time travel happened, but there is a reason after all, right? After you and everyone have experienced the "shit luck of making a mistake", why can't you experience the "shit luck of correction" again?

?

"If one day I suddenly leave without saying goodbye, Shuixiu, what will happen to you?" Kang Fan asked He Shuixiu with a smile.

He Shuixiu was obviously not mentally prepared and was stunned. After a while, tears began to well up in his eyes.

Kang Fan regretted it and hurriedly excused himself, "Shui Xiu, brother is joking with you."

He Shuixiu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Actually, I know that Brother Kang will leave eventually."

Kang Fan was surprised, "Shui Xiu, why did you say that?"

He Shuixiu said: "I have been with Brother Kang for so many years. I have seen everything about Brother Kang and kept it in my heart. I have long seen that Brother Kang, you, Sister Mei Xiang and those friends who came with you are already very good.

I don’t belong here, and I’m just an ordinary person who was born and raised here. We… parted sooner or later.”

Kang Fan was silent for a while before saying: "Shui Xiu, eldest brother just wants you to understand that if eldest brother really leaves you and never comes back, it must be because he has no choice."

He Shuixiu nodded with tears in her eyes, "Brother Kang, I understand..."

Kang Fan felt heartbroken and pulled He Shuixiu into his arms, "If my eldest brother is gone, you must take good care of yourself."

"Yes, I will. I have received a lot from Brother Kang, which is enough for me..." Although He Shuixiu forced herself to smile and speak, Kang Fan could see that there was a deep sadness in her smile.
