In July 1861, Mohamed Mara Berghan suddenly fell seriously ill.

After hearing this news, Zuo Zongtang, who was inspecting the economic recovery and construction work in the southern Xinjiang region, suddenly showed abnormal anxiety and anxiety.

Not only did he immediately send a special person to Huohan City to visit and greet Muhammad Mara Berg on his behalf, he also urgently dispatched personnel from the Red Army Kashgar Hospital to form a medical team and rushed to Huohan City to participate in the treatment of Muhammad Mara Berg. After he returned to Yili, the medical team formed by the Red Army Ili Hospital also ran towards Huohan City without stopping.

In August 1862, Muhammad Mara Berg, who had been tortured by illness for a year, felt that he had not been gone for too long. At this time, even speaking was difficult, but he expressed his last wish to those who were waiting around him:

If... if... if you can invite the governor of the Left...

Although Kokhan immediately sent a messenger to Yili, everyone knew very well that their wishes of Muhammad, Mara Berghan were destined to be difficult to fulfill. Not to mention whether the busy Governor Zuo, who had time to come, would be able to cross the thousands of miles of distance just in three or five days.

However, a miracle still happened.

At this time, Zuo Zongtang was accompanying Zou Guojian, who was about to be transferred to the deputy commander of the Northwest Agricultural Reclamation Corps, to inspect the implementation of the desert control and afforestation work proposed by the Northwest Military and Political Office and the Xinjiang Provincial Government.

When he was guarding the escort of the sand willow that had been planted from Hergon to Taras, more than 300 miles long and finally arrived at Taras, Zuo Zongtang, who had no time to dust, looked southwest and said this to Zou Guojian beside him, "Oh... Our old friend Beghan's condition has not improved recently, and I don't know if he can overcome this hurdle."

It was a coincidence that just when Zuo Zongtang felt sad for his old friend's illness, the envoy sent to Yili from the Kingdom of Kokan was about to pass by Taras.

So Zuo Zongtang got on the horse again without hesitation.

Just two days later, he appeared beside the sickbed of Mohammed Maraberg.

"I know, you will definitely come."

When Zuo Zongtang, who was covered in mud and sweating, suddenly appeared in front of him, Muhammad Mara Berg, who was in a coma for most of the time, not only showed a happy smile on his face, but he could also hold his body up and sit up from the sickbed.

Later, Muhammad Mara Berg held Zuo Zongtang with one hand and his heir Sha Murad with the other, leaving his last words, "Only China is our most trustworthy friend. Whoever dares to be an enemy of China will be fought against each other."

It was through all these things that Lin Fengxiang, Zuo Zongtang and other officials of the Northwest Military and Political Office gained the extreme trust of the people in Kazakhstan, Kokhan, Brut, Shiva and Bukhara, and also established great prestige for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom central government.

In 1864, Zuo Zongtang represented the Central Government of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and promoted the signing of the non-aggression treaty between Kokhan, Brut, Shiva and the four Khanates of the Bukhara.

In 1867, at the invitation of Lin Fengxiang and Zuo Zongtang, representatives of the five countries of Kazakhstan, Kokhan, Brut, Shiva and Bukhara went to Yili to sign a treaty of mutual assistance from the five countries.

Lin Fengxiang, Zuo Zongtang and others who can do everything they can to help the "others" around them obviously will not neglect their "household chores". On the contrary, the important members of the Northwest Military and Political Office are actually quite dedicated to their "household chores".

Taking Xinjiang hosted by Zuo Zongtang as an example, during the period of vigorously developing economic construction in the Northwest region, the Northwest Military and Political Office did not keep its eyes on the word "economy" and did not do anything to build an economy just for the "economy".

But since 1859, the Northwest Military and Political Office has launched a persistent desert control campaign for the sake of generations of descendants.

After nearly ten years of hard work, the military and civilians in Xinjiang have achieved that on any road, there will be willows on both sides as guards. A new planted willows have thousands of miles, which has led to the grand afforestation of Yuguan in spring.

Of course, no one is perfect. For Lin Fengxiang, Zuo Zongtang, Li Shixian and others, they also have things they cannot consider.

Rich water sources and can support people, which is obviously a necessary prerequisite for agricultural reclamation work.

Therefore, in areas where the above-mentioned areas are extremely suitable for agricultural reclamation development without a huge water diversion project, they naturally become pieces of fat in the eyes of the Agricultural Reclamation Corps.

By developing more and raising more people, we can reduce the burden on the Celestial Empire, which is the only wish of the soldiers of the Agricultural Reclamation Army.

But they forgot one thing that there will never be endless water sources in the world.

As Yi and Zaiyuan are worried now, since the day when the farmer's son Li Wenxue has regarded this fertile land as a large base of the 18th Farmers. In his mind, he not only needs to build this place into a large granary, but also a big town, which is enough to make more Gansu people who still live in an environment that is not suitable for human survival to come here to enjoy the happiness that the world deserves.

Yi, who was still patient in listening to the battles of the Red Army soldiers in the northwest, gradually became focused.

After all, in the great cause of restoration of the country led by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime, no matter how praise is, it is well deserved. The soldiers of the First Red Front Army and the Third Red Front Army are the soldiers.

Among the two major military groups, the Red Front Army and the Red Third Front Army, which have created countless brilliant achievements, the Red Front Army is even more extraordinary.

Due to geographical reasons and inconvenience in transportation, they did not fail to obtain more material supply from the Supreme Command like Chen Yucheng's Red Third Front Army. However, they were able to fully utilize all the advantages they could play, overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, and finally successfully fulfilled the glorious mission entrusted to them by the people.

This is a glorious journey that Lian Yi himself would feel extremely proud of.

"Okay, it's much more enjoyable to listen to you telling this in person than just reading the official documents." After listening to Lin Fengxiang's remarks, Yang Xiuqing rubbed his big hands repeatedly and smiled happily, "Hahaha, I knew for a long time that as long as you guys take action, the overall situation in the northwest can be completely at ease."

"Hey, I said Chairman Yang, it seems that this is not the case, right?" Before Yang Xiuqing finished speaking, Shi Dakai looked confused and looked at him and said, "How can I remember that you, Chairman Yang, seemed to be very worried about the situation in the Northwest War at the beginning? Lin Fengxiang is more brave, Zuo Zongtang is not brave enough, and as for Lai Hanying, he cannot compare with Huang Zaixing at all."

"Nonsense, when did I say that?" Yang Xiuqing glared at Shi Dakai, "You, you have an ear problem. What I said at that time, these three people gathered together just now, and they just complemented each other's strengths, which was a wonderful cooperation."

There was a burst of laughter in Yang Xiuqing's reception room.
