The efficiency of current civil engineering operations is very low.

Whether building walls or transporting building materials, it all depends on people's shoulders and hands.

Although a large amount of manpower has been mobilized, it will still take at least half a year to complete.

Despite this, the Shinsengumi garrison has the appearance of a military camp.

The main entrance has been enlarged many times, from the original ordinary wooden door to Tang Po Feng, which is mainly light onion color.

There is a large plaque hanging on the side of the main entrance, which reads "Gyeonggi Town Fufu Newly Selected Group Village".

24 fully armed guards were lined up on the left and right sides of the main entrance. They held the sabers on their waists and glanced around to prevent anyone from approaching.

Tokugawa Iemo and others had not yet entered the camp. They just saw the guards outside the gate and froze on the spot.

There was no other reason - the mental outlook of the guards really impressed them.

He is in the prime of life, standing upright, with a rosy complexion and sharp eyes... With such an appearance, he is definitely not an old, weak or disabled person!

The group continued forward and approached the main entrance.

Suddenly, Qingden turned over and got off the cow, just like a conditioned reflex.

Before Tokugawa Iemo and others had time to ask what was wrong with Aonto, they heard the leading guard outside the main gate shouting:

"Stop! It is forbidden to ride horses in the camp!"

Crash, clatter, clatter - the guards quickly changed their steps and formed a solid human wall to block everyone from the main entrance.

The sudden change made everyone except Qingdeng startled.

Immediately afterwards, the "pro-army" generals headed by Yamaki Yunro, like dogs seeing fresh meat, shouted sharply:

"Bold! Do you know who this person is?"

"Didn't anyone tell you that General Zhengyi will inspect the Shinsengumi's camp today?"

"This is the General Zhengyi, please give way quickly!"

"Even if you don't know General Zhengyi, you should still know your general, right?"

Yamaki Yunlang said, pointing at Qingden.

The leading guard glanced at Qingdeng, and then said seriously with no expression on his face:

"It won't work for anyone!"

"In the army, only military orders are obeyed!"

"Not to mention Mr. Dashu and Mr. Nioh, even if Amaterasu comes in person, he must obey our military orders!"

These remarks can be said to have shocked everyone's mood.

Even Tokugawa Iemo, Tenjoin, Hitotsubashi Keiki and Matsudaira Harugaku all had expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Yamaki Yunlang's complexion turned green and white.

Just when he opened his mouth and was about to say something more, Tokugawa Iemo reached out his hand first and made a gesture to signal him to be quiet.

Faced with the guards' unyielding tough stance, Tokugawa Iemo did not show any dissatisfaction, but instead showed a slight smile.

"Okay, I understand."

He turned to look at the others:

"Everyone dismount!"

After that, he jumped off the saddle and set an example.

Tokugawa Iemo, who was regarded as the general who conquered the barbarians, had already dismounted, how could the others not follow suit?

Everyone looked at each other in shock, and then one after another they turned over and dismounted like dumplings.

It wasn't until everyone left their mounts that the guards retreated to both sides to make way.

Aoden took a step forward and made a "please" gesture to Tokugawa Iemo.

"General, please come with me."

Tokugawa Iemo nodded slightly and took a big step forward.

As soon as he passed through the main door, Tokugawa Iemo raised his eyebrows, stretched his neck, and pretended to be "listening".

Drinking...drinking...drinking...the majesty brought strange sounds.

Tokugawa Iemo: "Huh? Aonto, what is this sound?"

Qingdeng smiled slightly:

"This is the sound of soldiers practicing."

Tokugawa Iemo raised his eyebrows again:

"The sound of drills? Is the training ground close to here?"

Qingden shook his head.

"It's not close. The nearest training ground from here is about 10 towns away."

[Note: 1st town is about 109 meters]

Tokugawa Iemo opened his eyes wide: "10 towns?"

The rest of the people looked similar, with expressions of astonishment on their faces.

From a distance of 10 towns, you can vaguely hear the sound of the drills...how loud the drills are.

Tokugawa Iemo blinked, and then said hurriedly:

"...Aomori, can you take us to see the Shinsengumi's training ground first?"

"sure."

At Tokugawa Iemo's strong request, everyone decided to inspect the training ground first.

Along the way, you can see workers coming and going everywhere, carrying various building materials.

Perhaps because of the presence of these workers, the air in the entire camp exuded a fiery, fast-paced atmosphere - something that the Dabanju camp just now did not have.

The camp of the Dafan Group... is very ordinary, and the air inside is no different from the outside air.

Not long after, the spacious No. A training ground came into view.

The training sounds of "drink," "wow, wah, wah," and "haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"" became as loud as thunder.

The moment they saw the No. 1 training ground, Tokugawa Iemo, Tenjoin, Hitotsubashi Keiki, Matsudaira Harugaku, Yamaki Yunro... everyone's expressions were dominated by strong shock!

Especially Yamaki Yunro, he was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.

Qingdeng said calmly:

"Your Highness, this is the Shinsengumi's No. 1 training ground."

After saying that, he turned to look at Yunlang Yamagi who was not far away.

"Yamaki-kun, please forgive me for being blunt - this is what we call an army!"

Yamaki Yunlang looked at Qingdeng, and then at the No. A training ground in front of him, the color on his face drained away.

"Kill ah ah ah!"

"Follow up! Keep up, everyone! Don't fall behind!"

"Stand up straight! Stand up straight! Don't move! Keep your palms close to the sides of your legs."

"Array up!"

"Drink ah ah ah ah!"

The shouts and shouts that erupted from the training ground swept across all directions like a storm.

The entire training ground radiated a surging heat wave! It was as if there were flames burning here, far beyond what the big group camp just now could compare to!

Alas...it is true that blessings never come in pairs, and misfortunes never come singly...

I don’t know if it’s because my body’s resistance has weakened after eating bad food in the past few days. I have been feeling a sore throat today and am very depressed... I wrote this chapter intermittently while lying in bed using my mobile phone.

For a while, rest for a while, and then write for a while...
