Two miles later, it was already the season when the autumn weather was clear and the yellow was floating, but outside Runing Mansion was desolate. Zhu Yuanzhang sat outside the city and looked at the surrounding deserted land, and couldn't help but think in his heart: My territory should be the season when the autumn potato harvest is now, and the people should be smiling.

He expected that Gao Yingxiang and others had already entered the ambushed on both sides of the official road between Xinyang and Runing, but he didn't know if the fight had started. If it really started, I was afraid that Ai Wan would be unable to save his life in his old age.

Ai Wannian was not young anymore, and she was in her sixties this year. Although she was old, she was fierce. She was a good general who was very willing to live a life. Starting from the fourth year of Chongzhen, he followed Cao Wen's orders to suppress bandits. In the fourth year of Chongzhen, he participated in the battle to pursue Zhao Sheng. In the fourth year of Chongzhen, he also fought with Zhu Yuanzhang. However, his reputation was not obvious at that time. Zhu Yuanzhang did not notice him. In the fifth year of Chongzhen, Ai Wannian followed Fan Yiheng to suppress Zhang Cunmeng without mud; and with Li Bei and He Rulong, he attacked Zhang Xianzhong, the king of sweeping the floor. The following year, he served as deputy general and suppressed the Shanxi rebel army. In the seventh year of Chongzhen, he captured the ministers of the leader of the rebel army, led the king; he captured the mountain and crossed the mountain, Ji Guansuo, and was in charge of the king of the king, and the court appointed him as the governor of the enterprise. In the eighth year of Chongzhen, he was appointed as deputy general of Gushan and garrison of Pingliang.

This place dares to fight and fight, and it is precisely because he dares to fight and fight, he will never passively avoid the battle like He Rulong, Zuo Liangyu, and Zu Kuan. Therefore, if he meets Gao Yingxiang's troops halfway, he will definitely fight until his death. It's a pity for this veteran.

While thinking, I suddenly heard a scout coming over and shouting, "Brother Zhu, something is not good. An army suddenly appeared in the south, and the unit is unknown. Sister Xue Hongqi stepped forward to ask, and there was a conflict between words. A female general appeared in the other party's army, and she was fighting with Sister Xue Hongqi alone."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was surprised: "Southern? Isn't the direction where King Gao Yingxiang and others went? If there were troops coming from the south, it must be the rebels. What's the point of fighting?"

The scout also said: "It is indeed the rebels. They were dressed in tatters and their weapons were messy. However, they had no banners and did not know Sister Xue Hongqi. It seems that they were not a rookie who had just emerged from the mountain valley. They were very rude to Sister Xue Hongqi, and they started fighting."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed silently. Although Xue Hongqi's temper is not bad, it is not good. Not long ago, outside Tongguan, she fought with the bearded man and subdued him into the army. Unexpectedly, she turned her head and started fighting with the bearded man again. This woman who likes to fight is like a man who likes to embroider, leaving nothing to say.

"Let's go and see!" Zhu Yuanzhang called out, and Ma Xiaoyao and more than thirty other guards rolled over the horses. Wang Er, Xu Rujie and others heard that there was a lot of fun to watch, so of course they had to follow. A group of people left the barracks and drove southwards. Two or three miles passed in a flash. Two or three miles ahead were indeed two groups of horses confronting each other. The north was naturally Xue Hongqi's horse bandits, and the south was a group of ragged thieves. The number of incoming was about six or seven hundred. This strength was really not very good. As the scout said, it was a new rebel rebel army.

Such a rookie army naturally would not have any great things to do. Everyone was dissatisfied with it and thought: As soon as Xue Hongqi took action, he would probably be able to capture it within three or five moves.

However, when they entered the field, the crowd was surprised. They saw two red horses running with their hooves. At the same time, two red-clothed Inner were using their own means to attack and defend. Xue Hongqi used a scimitar, and the other red-clothed Inner was using a sword. The two swords were raised at the same time, attacking and defending, and then docking and rolling on the back of the horse. It was indecisive to distinguish between Xuanyuan.

Because the two women were fighting, their bodies kept rolling, and even the crowd could not see the woman's appearance. They didn't know their age, and they could only tell from their figure that they were not old.

Xu Rujie owed and shouted, "Where did the girl come from? He can actually fight with Xue Hongqi like this? It's so amazing."

Wang Er was also amazed: "Even if my husband came to Yingshanhong and got on the horse's back and played against Sister Xue Hongqi, he would have to be taken down in just a few moves. I didn't expect that this woman could actually fight her. It was really amazing."

Everyone looked at it carefully and saw that Xue Hongqi was good at equestrianism. When the horse was united, it was like a part of the horse. She steadily stuck on the horse's back. No matter how the opponent made a move, she responded lightly. But the other girl was different. Her horse was not sure about her equestrianism, or she didn't see her using any equestrian at all. But her body was extremely sensitive. The horse was clearly running and jumping and falling, but she seemed to be treating the horse's back as flat ground. She sat on the horse's back, stood on the horse's back, and turned somersaults on the horse's back, which was simply incredible. Several times, everyone was worried that she would fall off the horse's back, but she didn't know how she turned over and returned to the horse's back... Xu Rujie sighed: "This... is simply a juggling on the horse's back..."

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he already knew who this girl was, so he said lightly: "That's right, even if it's a juggling, everyone will see it fresh. We are so majestic and strange in another world. There are also many materials to use juggling in battle like this."

At this time, Xue Hongqi and the woman had already fought from the road to the woods on the roadside, and rode two by one tree. The tree grew low, with a thick horizontal branch crossing in front of the two entrances. The height of the branch was just one foot higher than the horse's back. If an ordinary knight hits such a tree head-on, he will be swept off the horse by the horizontal branch, which can be said to be a premature trap.

When Xue Hongqi saw such a trap in front of her, she was immediately overjoyed: "It depends on how you can avoid it." She slashed her sword in her hand and waved a few more times, covering the whole woman's body, making her unable to control her horse to dodge, and rushed straight towards the horizontal branch.

The war horse arrived in front of the tree, lowered its head, rushed over under the branch. Xue Hongqi's body was retracted and disappeared from the horse's back in an instant. It turned out that she was hiding in the horse. The other woman in red was not good at equestrianism, but she had no ability to hide in the pedal. Seeing that she could not avoid it, she was about to be swept by the horizontal branches on her waist. Unexpectedly, her body jumped and brittle off the horse's back. She lightly pointed her toes and stood on a thin and tough vine. The war horse passed under the branch. She couldn't catch up with it, so she had to let the war horse run away and stay there. The vine was so thin that the wind could shake. How could she jump up like this? But she actually swayed with the vine, rising and falling, and did not fall down... "Wow!" The generals and soldiers of Zhu Jun all exclaimed.

Xue Hongqi thought she had been swept down, but when she looked back, she saw the woman standing on the vine with a smile on her face, as if she was continuing to invite the fight.

Xue Hongqi snorted coldly and said, "You are forced to leave the horse's back by me, that means you lose, there is no need to compete."

The woman was not upset and smiled and said, "My sister is really clever in riding skills, but her hands and feet are not bad. The Hongmao also wants to ask you about your ability to fight in the field." She stood on the vine and shook with the wind, and her momentum was not high. At this time, everyone saw her face clearly. She was only about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a goose face, soft and cute, with a charming smile, and her skin was not white. She obviously had been exposed to the rain since she was a child, but she had a red dress and did not look dark.

"It turns out that this entry is called Hong Niangzi." Xu Rujie said, "I have never heard of such an entry number. At that time, the 13th family 72nd Battalion, and many small bandits of bandits arrived. I have recorded one by one, but I have never seen a girl enter."

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that this was Li Yan's later wife, Hong Niangzi. In the last life, Zhu Yuanzhang was wandering in Yaokong, but only had a pair of eyes. If he wanted to watch Yaokong's general trend, it would be impossible for him to go to watch a certain place or an entry. By the time he knew Li Yan and Hong Niangzi, the couple had already become famous, so he didn't know when she was uprising. He only knew that she was rebelling in Jigong Mountain, Xinyang during the Chongzhen period. After the uprising, he headed north and rescued Li Yan in Yuqi County, achieving a good story.

Xinyang was just a hundred miles south of Runing Mansion. It seemed that Hongniang had just gathered people to rebel and then headed north. She was a thief, so she naturally did not walk on the official road, but went to the deep mountains and forests. Gao Yingxiang and others wanted to intercept Ai Wannian, so they had to go along both sides of the official road, so they passed by the Hongniang Detachment, but they didn't see each other. As a result, Hongniang directly bumped into the Zhu army scout who was staying in Runing. When the Zhu army scout reported, he happened to meet Xue Hongqi walking around with the cavalry team. He said a few words and started fighting.

Xu Rujie shouted at the top of his voice: "That person named Hong Niangzi, if you lose in horse war, you don't have to compete again. Even if you compete in ceiling battles, you will lose." He knew that Xue Hongqi would not be able to fight in the field, but if he dismounted, he would probably not be able to compete with this woman, but in order to protect his daughter, he would talk nonsense at the top of his voice.

The Matchmaker laughed. Although she was fighting, she could laugh very pleasantly, and everything she saw was soft. It turned out that she was born to perform in the world. Before the uprising, she traveled around the world with a group of juggling arts. As for this juggling, you have to talk about a typhoon. You can't be cold-faced and sword-like. After the dance, you are so fierce that you can ask the audience for money? So no matter how tired or hard it is, or even accidentally fell and injured during the performance, she had to smile and ask the audience for money.

This habit has been for many years and cannot be changed in a short period of time. The fierce fight between her and Xue Hongqi made her blood surging. She was very tired. But when she stood on the vine and swayed gently, she still had a smile on her face and said, "The man over there, you are talking nonsense... This sister's equestrian is indeed better than me, but she is far from wielding a sword and dancing a sword. If there is no horse, hehe... the little sister will definitely win with just three or five moves."

After hearing this, Xue Hongqi was furious and turned over and got off the red horse, shouting: "I'm off the horse, come and fight!"
