Section 15 Acquaintance (II)
The figure in front of him flickered, and then he heard a Beijinger scream and fell to the side. At this time, Gao Yunxuan had already risen into the air, and while he jumped up, he used his chest and abdomen hard, and the person was already arching backwards, and he was about to slash the enemy's head with this stick that had gathered all his strength.
"Huh." The young armor soldier let out an angry roar at Gao Yunxuan who rushed over, and his eyes suddenly widened, although he had countless combat experience, and even went to the battlefield. But at that moment, Gao Yunxuan seemed to feel that the fierce color shot out of the other party's eyes turned into a tangible thing, and hit his face together with the other party's roar, and the fierceness seemed to be so powerful that he wanted to push his life away, and his soul was shaken by this glare.
The armor had just smashed the Pekingese out with a swing of the horsewhip in his forehand, and while he was glaring at Gao Yunxuan, the horsewhip had already been pumped back with a lightning backhand, hitting Gao Yunxuan's ribs. The stick in his hand flew out, and the man spun around a few times like a spinning top, and then fell to the ground and could not get up again, and even the moaning was inaudible.
"This is the General!" Seeing that the senior brother couldn't pounce on the ground, Xing Zhisheng stared at the five warriors with armor on the opposite side in a daze, just now he and Senior Brother Gao came to a similar judgment, that is, the other party was the personal guard of the military general, but he also thought that this young leader might be the commander of the personal guard. But now Xing Zhisheng has a new judgment, because when he saw that those Yangzhou green camps were all replaced with flattering faces, and when the murderous aura suddenly appeared on the other party's body, although the distance was very far, Xing Zhisheng felt weak and stiff limbs for a moment.
"It's vulnerable." The ironclad man at the head said gloomily, two of the four guards behind him walked quickly to the front, they did not subdue Xing Zhisheng, Wu Yue'er and the others who had retreated to the corner of the wall with a shocked face, but pulled the Beijinger who had fallen in front of the general's feet from the ground; The guards to his left changed their hands, and then two guards grabbed him by the arm from one of the two sides and caught him in front of the general.
At this time, the Liangjiang Green Battalion had already picked up this person's waist card from the ground, and respectfully presented it to the military general, the captured Beijinger had the same rank as him, and they were also the commanders of a province, and the other party was the commander of the cavalry and he was the infantry commander, and the other party was slightly higher than him.
"Zhili raises the standard of the horse soldiers?" The military general asked coldly, and sneered: "So bad? ”
The captured officer of the Green Battalion was thirty-five or six, and he was in the prime of life, he originally hung his head, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but raise his head, and said angrily: "I haven't eaten enough, I don't have a knife in my hand, there is a kind of letting Lao Tzu put on armor and fight again." ”
"You're not an opponent, it's too bad." The military general laughed, not taking the other party's challenge to heart at all, and then he stretched out his hand to point at Gao Yunxuan, who was still lying on the ground: "What kind of miscellaneous is this?" ”
"General Qiyu Zhou, they are the Shandong Righteous Army." Sima Ping had seen this general and knew that he was Zhou Kaihuang, a general under Deng Ming, so he hurriedly came behind Zhou Kaihuang and whispered.
"They are Shandong Green Camp! They said it themselves. Duan Gengchen, who was holding his injured leg in the distance, also shouted loudly.
"How can it be Shandong Green Camp?" Zhou Kaihuang sneered, he saw Wu Yue'er on guard in the distance, so he thought that this was a local Jianghu person who sympathized with the Qing army: "But why did they fight with you?" ”
"They decided that we were Qing soldiers," Sima Ping was bent on leaving a good impression on Zhou Kaihuang, and hurriedly explained: "Well, that's right, we are Qing soldiers, but they don't know that we are in the Qing camp and in Han, so they decided that we are bad guys, and these Pekingese are good people." ”
"And when the Pekingese greet me, this idiot thinks I'm a bad person too." Zhou Kaihuang smiled slightly, and when he heard this, he had completely understood: "Since it is the Shandong Righteous Army, then I will take it away." Deng Ming confessed that if there was a Shandong rebel appearing, he would take him to see him immediately.
However, Zhang Junqian and the others were still a little confused, so Sima Ping turned around and explained carefully to the people in the Liangjiang Green Camp, as for Duan Gengchen, who was shouting on the side, Sima Ping knew that he couldn't understand it for a while, so he didn't bother with him for the time being.
What the hell are a few enemies in the distance, Xing Zhisheng can't hear it clearly, even if it's close, he can't understand Yangzhou dialect, Wu Yue'er hugged the injured senior brother, and the four Shandong people retreated to the corner to prepare for the last desperate resistance. Because the enemy did not press forward immediately, they looked at Gao Yunxuan in the distance again: the latter was already able to inhale the breath into his lungs little by little, and the whip just now made him half of his body numb, as if he couldn't even breathe.
Gao Yunxuan is not far away from Zhou Kaihuang, when the latter asked the "Zhili Raising the Standard Horse Soldier Thousand Generals" just now, Gao Yunxuan, who couldn't move, thought that Zhou Kaihuang was really sarcastic The other party's impersonation was too clumsy, but the second half of the connection seemed to mean something else.
Although Jiangnan dialect and Sichuan dialect are not understood, Zhou Kaihuang and Sima Ping's three words are still official dialects, although they bring Sichuan and Jiangnan accents, but Gao Yunxuan in pain vaguely seems to hear them say that their alliance is the real Qing soldiers.
"If they are Qing soldiers, then there is the Ming army on the other side?" Although Gao Yunxuan was sore when breathing, he still tried his best to shout: "We are Shandong righteous ......"
Shouting this, Gao Yunxuan's voice stopped abruptly, and turned into a gasp again.
This voice reminded Xing Zhisheng, who was hiding in the corner, and he quickly pondered the intention of his senior brother, and suddenly realized that since he couldn't escape, there was naturally only one way to coerce and lure.
"We are the Shandong Righteous Army," Xing Zhisheng shouted in the distance: "Listen to the winning minions on the other side, we are on the order of Yu Qi Yu Ye to send gifts to Baoguo Gong, Baoguo Gong already knows that we are coming, if you dare to touch our cold hair, Baoguo Gong will kill you all!" ”
Zhou Kaihuang had already taken a step forward, intending to say hello to the other party, but Xing Zhisheng's vicious threat made him pause: "Give a gift, what kind of gift?" ”
"yes, what kind of gift?" Xing Zhisheng was also stunned by the question, he only had a few taels of silver on him, and there was no place to find a gift suitable for the identity of the Duke of Baoguo in a hurry; However, Xing Zhisheng was always anxious, and when he saw the other party's movements stagnating, he realized the hesitation in the enemy's heart, he didn't dare to think about it for too long, and hurriedly pointed at Wu Yue'er beside him: "A beautiful woman in Shandong!" ”
One of the guards behind Zhou Kaihuang looked surprised and muttered, "When did the Admiral have this reputation?" It should have been given to Lieutenant Colonel Mu, right? ”
And the other guard seriously gave a large number of Wu Yue'er, the other party's face was black and yellow, and there were pleats made: "This is a Shandong beauty?" Before the Third Eastern Crusade, there were many Shandong people who desperately said good things about Shandong girls, and this guard was also a person with longing, but now his disappointment was overflowing: "What is that not beautiful?" ”
……
"You are the Ming Army." Xing Zhisheng said to Zhang Junqian with confidence, and the misunderstanding was finally resolved: "Then why did you beat us?" ”
"I'm not a Ming army." Zhang Junqian said coldly, he is the commander of the Jiangnan Governor Infantry, but there is no need to tell a chivalrous man about this identity.
"Then you are the Ming Army." Xing Zhisheng pointed at Sima Ping and said.
"We are not the Ming Army!" Without waiting for Sima Ping to answer, Duan Gengchen, who was sitting with his legs not far away, replied first, his angry gaze was still hovering over Wu Yue'er, in his opinion, this kind of is a waste of food to live, and the only use is to chop up steamed buns: "Obviously, you hit us first." ”
"But you're not a Qing army either, are you?" Xing Zhisheng felt a little confused.
"We are the Qing soldiers." Sima Ping sighed, he found another figure who was as resourceful as Senior Brother Duan, and suddenly his whole body was enveloped by a familiar feeling, that is, a sense of despair of "a thousand words, I don't know where to start".
"Then they are the Ming Army?" Xing Zhisheng's face was confused again, and he finally pointed at Zhou Kaihuang: "Then why don't they beat you?" Aren't you clear soldiers? ”
Sima Ping was silent, he suddenly realized that this was not his junior brother, he had no obligation to help the other party understand this universe, and Duan Gengchen was still angrily retorting: "Who stipulated that the Ming army must fight the Qing army?" Do you have rules in your house? ”
This retort made Sima Ping sigh lightly again, but the confusion on Xing Zhisheng's face dissipated a little, as if Duan Gengchen's logic was exactly what kind of logic he could understand: "This is the case in Shandong." ”
"But this is Jiangnan, you can't follow the rules of Shandong!" Duan Gengchen's roar was getting higher and higher, and his brother was helping him splint his calf: "The rule in Jiangnan is to fight when you see a northern guy!" ”
"Oh." With a perfect explanation, Xing Zhisheng's questions about those strange things just now were easily solved, and there was no longer any confusion.
……
In addition to the two groups of people who were fighting, there was also the scholar just now, and when he was in a pot of porridge just now, several people for whom he had interceded fled and left the children they were carrying. As a result, in order to protect the child, the scholar also stayed.
"Tiger poison doesn't eat children, why are they willing to throw the child away?" Things have subsided, and the reader is still indignant.
At this time, Sima Ping ran to Gao Yunxuan's side and asked for warmth, and after hearing this, he looked at the young scholar helplessly: "This is not their child, they want to take it away and sell it, so we just asked them to stay and pay off their debts." We are serious knights who open the door to do business, not cowards who have lost their conscience and dismantled other people's flesh and blood. ”
This young scholar is a native of Anqing, who has just left home and plans to travel along the canal, and after some travel, the scholar will have a basic understanding of this society, and he is no longer a student who does not listen to things outside the window; This is also a very necessary experience for them before entering the filthy officialdom.
"You want to bring this child home? Do you know where his home is? ”
"We don't know......" Sima Ping fell silent again, the person on the other side was not brave and strategic, but had not traveled, otherwise he would not have asked such a stupid question, but immediately understood that they were blackmailing the child to sell it for money.
However, such a young scholar who had just gone out to travel, Sima Ping and Zhang Junqian, who was listening from a distance, glanced at each other, and both saw the killing intent in the eyes of the other party. After the training of officialdom, the scholars will grow into the pillars of Donglin and the eunuch party, and take charge of the country, and when the time comes, it will be the turn of the officers and knights to understand what the scholars are talking about, what to say, and what to bring into the coffin without Qiu Ba and the knights to remind them. However, the young man in front of him has nothing but a conscience, and he should not know what secrecy is, but there are too many things that require him to keep his mouth shut.
"This is a scholar," Gao Yunxuan sighed lightly behind his back: "It's a scholar." ”
"What Gao Daxia said is," Sima Ping turned his head and softly agreed: "Or I'll let him swear a poisonous oath." ”
Gao Yunxuan was silent for two seconds, he heard Sima Ping's words insincerely, but he didn't plead further for the scholar, but shook his head: "He knows too much." ”
"So it's better to go to Sichuan." A guard of Zhou Kaihuang suddenly interjected, he stared at the Anqing man and said, "Sichuan needs to teach Mr. ”
Sima Ping and Zhang Junqian stared at the Ming army guard together: "You won't let him run away, will you?" ”
"Don't worry, I will explain it clearly to my brothers, if he dares to run, he will break his legs and let him lie on the bed and cross the door," the Sichuan soldier stared at the scholar: "He stayed to protect this child, and his life should not be killed." ”
……
Five Shandong people and one Anqing man followed Zhou Kaihuang out of the store, and they were immediately dazzled by the bright cold light on the road. Zhou Kaihuang replied with a salute, Deng Ming held a meeting today to discuss the bottom line of negotiations, and Zhou Kaihuang was not interested in this and came out to inspect the camps, and happened to bump into this matter.
This is the standing cavalry company of the Ming army, their uniforms are uniform, and the helmets are all the same, and Zhou Kaihuang has the right to create a special helmet that meets his heart, which is also one of the privileges of senior officers. These standing cavalry were trained to charge against the wall like the three walls, and most of their mounts were also young horses provided by the Sichuan Mule and Horse Company, and the equipment on their bodies cost a lot of money in Chengdu.
With Zhou Kaihuang's wave of his hand, hundreds of Ming cavalry turned over and mounted their horses, and the standing cavalry marched behind Zhou Kaihuang one after another. No one or a horse made a sound, only the dense sound of horses' hooves and the sonorous sound of armor pieces as the bodies of hundreds of armored soldiers jolted.
Wow, whoa, whoa.
Gao Yunxuan and the others, who have always asked themselves boldly, listened to the rhythmic sound of metal collisions, and then looked at the expressionless faces of the armor riders, and unconsciously forgot to talk, and followed them silently all the way to the Ming army camp. On the same day, these envoys of Yu Qi met with Baoguo Gong himself.
