    After taking care of Wu Liande, Sun Yuanqi did not dare to delay in Tianjin and immediately took a bus to Shanhaiguan, 300 kilometers away.

    In order to prevent the epidemic from spreading southward, the trains from Shanhaiguan to Tianjin have been suspended for a long time, just in time to transport various disaster relief materials and personnel.  Trains leave Tianjin Station one after another, and it seems busier than usual.  In view of the tight train capacity during the emergency period, Sun Yuanqi did not allow an independent float to be hung. Instead, he asked for a box and sat in it to sort out the clues of various matters.

    Now Yang Du is staying in Beijing to collect news from the government and the public, Zhang Shizhao is in Shanhaiguan to receive food and salary personnel, and even Liu Shipei and Lin Shu, who have always been unruly, have been sent to Tianjin to be responsible for the transportation of materials and personnel.  Now Sun Yuanqi only has a few guards around him, so he has to make his own decisions on many things.

    While I was thinking about it, I heard the hustle and bustle of people outside the car window.  When I opened the curtains, I saw two rows of young people wearing military training uniforms from Jingshi University, getting on the bus one after another.  These young people still have some traces of soldiers in their movements, but their expressions are excited. Although there are some instructors or team leaders around to maintain order, they still whisper and laugh with the people around them.  Hundreds of people were chatting and laughing together in low voices, and the entire train station turned into a vegetable market.

    Sun Yuanqi watched for a moment and was about to close the curtains when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a few teenagers in the crowd.  It may be difficult to tell the difference between sixteen or seventeen years old and eighteen years old, but fourteen or fifteen years old and eighteen years old are simply clear.  Sun Yuanqi dared to conclude that these teenagers were no more than 15 years old.

    Isn¡¯t it stipulated that only volunteers over the age of 18 are recruited?  Sun Yuan frowned and couldn't help but jump.  He consciously patrolled the crowd for a while, and found that 30 to 40 percent of the hundreds of people clearly did not meet the conditions.

    Qiang suppressed his doubts and waited until the train started before Sun Yuanqi came to the carriage.  This group of young people were almost all students of Jingshi University and the affiliated middle school. They recognized Sun Yuanqi and when they saw Sun Yuanqi appearing, they all stood up quickly. Some saluted with a military salute, some bowed, and shouted: "Hello, Mr. Sun!" "Principal!"  good!"

    Sun Yuanqi imitated the scenes in "Xinwen Lianbo", shook hands with the students around him one by one, and encouraged him from time to time:

    "study hard, improve every day!"

    "Strengthen discipline and the revolution will be invincible."

    ¡°Carry forward the fine traditions of the school and strive for greater glory!¡±

    "The world is yours and ours, but in the final analysis it is yours. You young people are full of vitality and are in your prime, just like the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. Hope is pinned on you."

    Of course, these are Taizu¡¯s classic sayings, and Sun Yuanqi really didn¡¯t dare to use them indiscriminately.  The most he can say to the students is: "Thank you for your contributions to the country and the nation!"

    After inviting everyone to sit down, Sun Yuanqi saw a boy who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old and walked straight over: "Classmate, what is your name? How old are you this year?"

    The young man quickly stood up and replied in a low voice: "Mr. Reporter, my name is Xue Yangyue, I am 16 years old."

    "Then what do you belong to?"

    "" The young man thought for a long time before he said uncertainly, "Am I a horse?"

    "Who asked you to come?"

    "I asked to come!" The young man answered this sentence simply and neatly.

    Sun Yuanqi patted him on the shoulder and asked him to sit down: "To be on the front line of the motherland's needs at a young age, you have ambition! It's not easy!"

    After asking a few more people, Sun Yuanqi returned to his box.  As soon as he entered the box, he immediately felt like water: "It's really audacious! I asked him to recruit volunteers over 18 years old, but he actually changed it to 16 years old in private! It was fine to change it to 16 years old, and the controls were not strict enough to sneak in.  There are a large number of children in the 14th and 15th Five-Year Plans. What does he do for a living? Cheng Ziyin, when you get to Shanhaiguan, tell Zhao Jingxing to come see me! See if I don¡¯t skin him!"

    Although it is only 300 kilometers from Tianjin to Shanhaiguan, the train takes a full 10 hours.

    Shanhaiguan has a very good reputation, but if you ask where it falls under the jurisdiction, most people will probably be blinded.  In the Qing Dynasty, Shanhaiguan belonged to Zhili Province, Yongping Prefecture, and Linyu County.  Even though Linyu is a small county, the Fengjin Shanhaiguan Road of Fengtian Province used to be administered here. This is like the Hebei Provincial Government operating on the boundaries of Beijing. What does this mean?  It shows that Linyu is important!  It was not until last year (1909) that Jinshanhaiguan Road was renamed Jinxinyingkou Road and the people moved out of here.

    ¡°When I heard that the imperial envoy was coming to visit, officials of all sizes, including the Yongping magistrate, the Linyu magistrate, the Shanhaiguan deputy governor, etc., did not dare to neglect, and had been waiting on the platform for a long time.  Sun Yuanqi got off the train and ignored the pleasantries, so he directly asked Guan Tingxian, the prefect of Yongping: "Master Guan, has there been any epidemic in Yongping Prefecture recently?"

    Guan Tingxian was a prodigy in Guiweike in the ninth year of Guangxu (1883), but his official career was bumpy.There are fourteen levels from ?? to corporal.  The regular military academy is the eighth level, the fifth grade, which is equivalent to the garrison under the old system. It has the qualifications to serve as team supervisor (company commander), team officer, third-class staff officer and other officers.

    With Zhao Jingxing¡¯s background as a graduate of the Japanese Army Military Academy, his rank in the military academy was not high. The court did not refute Sun Yuanqi¡¯s reputation, but only added the word ¡°tong¡± in front of it.  There is knowledge in this.  Although officers with the word "tong" have the same rank as those without, they cannot serve as commanders. They can only serve as military quartermaster, military doctor, military law, military music, secretary, etc.  ¡ª¡ªThis fully reflects the court¡¯s continued emphasis on military power.

    Sun Yuanqi suddenly turned cold and let out a loud "hum": "You still dare to come to see me?"

    Zhao Jingxing pretended to be shocked: "What mistake did you make in your humble position?"

    "Still pretending?" Sun Yuanqi suddenly became furious, "I asked you to recruit volunteers over the age of 18, who are the people you recruited? Not to mention changing the age to 16 without permission, there are also many children of thirteen or fourteen years old  , how did you study in the military academy these past few years?"

    Zhao Jingxing quickly said, "You told me you were 16 at the time! I have a record." He took out his notebook from his body, flipped it to the day the two talked, and then pushed it to Sun Yuanqi.

    Sure enough, it clearly said "over 16 years old" without any alteration, and the context was exactly the same as the situation at that time.  Checked before and after, there are no signs of forgery or tearing.  Sun Yuan was stunned and began to wonder: Could it be that I really made a slip of the tongue and said I was 16?

    "As for the ones you said were thirteen or fourteen years old, it's probably because someone falsely changed their age during the recruitment process, or defied the rules and got into the team. I will definitely reprimand them severely when I get back!" Zhao Jingxing said sadly.

    Sun Yuanqi still didn¡¯t believe it: ¡°Did I say 16 or 18 years old?¡±

    "Absolutely 16 years old. If you don't believe me, you can ask Mr. Yang Xizi who was present at the time!" Zhao Jingxing replied with certainty.

    Sun Yuanqi waved his hand feebly: "As for whether you are 16 or 18, I will investigate. But those under 16 must be returned. Okay, tell me what the problem is with guns?"
