Chapter 15 Acquaintance (Part 2)

The figure in front of him shook, and then he heard a scream from the Beijingers and fell to the side. At this time, Gao Yunxuan had already soared into the air. While he was leaping up, he used force to his chest and abdomen. The man was already arching backwards, and he was about to knock the enemy down with all his strength.

"Ha." The young soldier roared at Gao Yunxuan who was rushing towards him, and his eyes suddenly widened. Although he had countless fighting experiences and even went to the battlefield, at that moment, Gao Yunxuan seemed to feel that the fierce color ejaculated in the other party's eyes turned into a tangible object, and he bumped into his face with the other party's roar, and it was fierce as if he was so powerful that he was about to push away his life. His soul was shaken by this glare.

The soldier just waved his horse whip and smashed the Beijinger out with his forehand. While he stared at Gao Yunxuan, the horse whip was already thrust backwards like lightning and hit Gao Yunxuan's ribs. The wooden stick in his hand flew out of his hand. The man quickly turned around like a top, and then fell to the ground and could no longer get up, and even the moans were inaudible.

"This is a general!" Seeing that the senior brother was unable to rise, Xing Zhisheng stared at the five warriors in front of him in a daze. He and Senior Brother Gao had a similar judgment just now, that was, the other party was the personal guard of the general, but he also believed that the young leader might be the commander of the personal guard. However, Xing Zhisheng had a new judgment now, because he saw that the Yangzhou green camps had a flattering face, and when the other party suddenly had that murderous aura, although the distance was very far, Xing Zhisheng felt weak and stiff in his limbs in an instant.

"It's really vulnerable." The iron armored man in the head said happily. Two of the four guards behind him walked forward quickly. They did not go to the corner of the uniform, but Xing Zhisheng, Wu Yueer and others with horror, but pulled the Beijing man who was falling at the foot of the general from the ground. The iron guard on his left changed his sword, and then the two iron guards grabbed one of his arms from both sides and pinched him to the general.

At this time, the Liangjiang Green Camp had already picked up the man's waist card from the ground and respectfully presented it to the general. The captured Beijinger was the same as his official title, and they were all personally led by the admiral camp of the province. Moreover, the other party was Ma Bingqian General and the infantry General, and the other party was a little higher than him.

"Zhili Ma Bing Qian General?" asked coldly, and sarcastically said: "So bad?"

The captured Green Camp officer thirty-five and sixth, was in his prime. He had already lowered his head, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and said angrily: "I'm not full, I don't have a knife in my hand, I have the will to let me put on my armor and fight again."

"You are not an opponent, it's too bad." The general laughed, not taking the other party's challenge at all. Then he reached out to point to Gao Yunxuan who was still lying on the ground: "What kind of mess is this?"

"Report to General Zhou, they are Shandong rebels." Sima Ping had seen this general and knew that he was Zhou Kaihuang under Deng Ming's command. He quickly came to Zhou Kaihuang and reported in a low voice.

"They are Shandong Green Camps! They said it themselves." Duan Gengchen, who was holding his injured leg in the distance, also shouted loudly.

"How could it be the Shandong Green Camp?" Zhou Kaihuang sneered. He saw Wu Yue'er in the distance, and he thought he was a local gang who was sympathetic to the Qing army: "But why did they fight with you?"

"They determined that we were the Qing soldiers," Sima Ping was determined to leave a good impression on Zhou Kaihuang and hurriedly explained: "Well, yes, we are the Qing soldiers, but they didn't know that we were in the Qing camp and in the Han Dynasty, so they decided that we were bad guys, and these Beijing guys were the good people."

"And the Beijingers greeted me, and this idiot thought I was also a bad person." Zhou Kaihuang smiled slightly. He had already fully understood when he heard this: "Since it is a Shandong rebel army, I will take it away." Deng Ming had explained that if the Shandong rebel army appeared, he would immediately take it to see him.

However, Zhang Jun was still a little confused about his fight, so Sima Ping turned to explain carefully to the people from Liangjiang Green Camp. As for Duan Gengchen who was clamoring around, Sima Ping knew that he couldn't understand it for a moment, so he ignored him for the time being.

Xing Zhisheng couldn't hear clearly what the enemies in the distance were saying. Even if they were close, he couldn't understand Yangzhou dialect. Wu Yue'er held his injured senior brother. The four Shandong people retreated to the corner to fight to the death. Because the enemy did not force him up immediately, they looked at Gao Yunxuan in the distance again: the latter could already suck his breath into his lungs little by little. The whip just now made his body numb, as if he couldn't even breathe.

Gao Yunxuan is not far from Zhou Kaihuang. When the latter asked the "Zhili Ma Bing Qian Zong", Gao Yunxuan, who was unable to move, thought Zhou Kaihuang was really ridiculing the other party's pretending to be too clumsy, but the second half of the sentence seemed to have another meaning.

Although he couldn't understand Jiangnan dialect and Sichuan dialect, Zhou Kaihuang and Sima Ping still used the official language in a few words. Although he brought Sichuan and Jiangnan accents, Gao Yunxuan, who was in pain, seemed to hear them say that his alliance was the real Qing soldiers.

"If they were Qing soldiers, then would the Ming army be opposite?" Although Gao Yunxuan felt sore when he was breathing, he still shouted with all his might: "We are Shandong Yi..."

After shouting here, Gao Yunxuan's voice stopped abruptly and turned into a chilling sound.

This voice reminded Xing Zhisheng, who was hiding in the corner of the wall. He quickly pondered the intention of his senior brother, and suddenly realized that since he could not escape, there was naturally only one way to coerce and tempt.

"We are the Shandong rebel army," Xing Zhisheng shouted in the distance: "Listen to Ying minions on the opposite side, we were ordered by Master Yu Qiyu to send gifts to Duke Baoguo. Duke Baoguo already knows that we are coming. If you dare to touch a hair, Duke Baoguo will kill you all!"

Zhou Kaihuang had already stepped forward and planned to say hello to the other party, but Xing Zhisheng's vicious threat made him stunned: "Give gifts, what gifts are you giving?"

"Yes, what gifts should I give?" Xing Zhisheng was also stunned by the question. He had only a few taels of silver on him, and there was no place to look for gifts suitable for the Duke of the Kingdom. However, Xing Zhisheng was always quick and wise, and saw that the other party's movements were stagnant, and realized the hesitation in the enemy's heart. He did not dare to think for too long, and he hurriedly pointed at Wu Yue'er beside him: "A beautiful girl from Shandong!"

A guard behind Zhou Kaihuang looked surprised and muttered: "When did the admiral get this reputation? It should be given to Lieutenant Colonel Mu, right?"

Another guard seriously took a lot of Wu Yue'er, and his face was covered with yellowish yellow, and he also made a frill: "Is this a Shandong beauty?" Before the third Eastern Expedition, many Shandong people desperately said good things about Shandong girls. The guard was also a person with longing, but now he was disappointed: "What is that unbeautiful?"

...

"You are the Ming army." Xing Zhishengman said to Zhang Jungan with confidence. The misunderstanding finally solved: "Then why do you hit us?"

"I'm not a Ming army." Zhang Jungan said coldly. He was the Jiangnan Supervisor Infantry General Qian, but there is no need to tell a knight this identity.

"Then you are the Ming army." Xing Zhisheng pointed at Sima Ping and said.

"We are not Mingjun!" Before Sima Ping answered, Duan Gengchen, who was sitting holding his legs not far away, answered first. His angry eyes were still hovering on Wu Yue'er. In his opinion, such a shrew was a waste of food when he lived, and his only use was to chop up a bun of steamed buns: "It was you who beat us first."

"But you are not the Qing army, right?" Xing Zhisheng felt a little confused.

"We are the Qing soldiers." Sima Ping sighed. He found another person who was as smart as Junior Brother Duan. His whole body was suddenly shrouded in a familiar feeling, which was a sense of despair of "thousands of words, I don't know where to start."

"Then are they Ming army?" Xing Zhisheng's face was confused again. He finally pointed at Zhou Kaihuang: "Then why didn't they beat you? Aren't you Qing soldiers?"

Sima Ping remained silent. He suddenly realized that this was not his junior brother. He did not have the obligation to help the other party understand the universe. Duan Gengchen was still refuting angrily: "Who stipulates that the Ming army must fight the Qing army? Are your family's rules?"

This rebuttal made Sima Ping sigh again, but the confusion on Xing Zhisheng's face dissipated a little, as if Duan Gengchen's logic was exactly what he could understand: "It's like this in Shandong."

"But this is Jiangnan, and you can't follow the rules of Shandong!" Duan Gengchen's roar was getting higher and higher, and his brother was helping him with splints in his calf: "The rules of Jiangnan are to beat him when he sees the harem!"

"Oh." With a perfect explanation, Xing Zhisheng's questions about the strange things just now were solved, and there was no longer any confusion.

...

In addition to the two groups of people fighting, there was also the scholar who just now. When the fight was just over, several people who had pleaded for him fled and left the children they brought behind. As a result, in order to protect the child, the scholar also stayed.

"The tiger is poisonous and doesn't eat the child, why are they willing to throw it away?" The matter calmed down, and scholars were still indignant.

At this time, Sima Ping ran to Gao Yunxuan for his concern. 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 to pay off the debt. We are serious knights who open the door to do business, nor are we the gangsters who have lost all their conscience to break up other people's flesh and blood."

This young scholar is from Anqing. He just left home and planned to travel along the canal. After a while, scholars will have a basic understanding of this society and will no longer be students who turn a blind eye to the outside world. This is also a very necessary experience before they enter the dirty officialdom.

"You want to save this child and go home? Do you know where his home is?"

"We don't know..." Sima Ping fell into silence again. The man on the opposite side was not brave but had not been traveling, otherwise he would not have asked such a stupid question, but immediately understood that they were extorting children to make money by selling them.

However, Sima Ping and Zhang Jungan, who had just traveled, looked at each other and saw murderous intent in the other party. After training in the officialdom, the scholars would grow into Donglin, a pillar of the eunuch party, and were in charge of the country. At that time, it would be the officers and knights' turn to understand what the scholars were saying, what should be said, and what should be brought into the coffin without reminding Qiu Ba and knights. However, the young scholar in front of him had nothing except conscience and should not understand what confidentiality is, but there were too many things that needed him to keep his mouth shut.

"This is a scholar," Gao Yunxuan sighed softly behind his back: "He is a scholar."

"What Gao Daxia said is," Sima Ping turned his head and agreed softly: "Why don't I let him swear a poisonous oath."

Gao Yunxuan was silent for two seconds. He heard Sima Ping’s words insincere, but did not plead for the scholars further, but shook his head: “He knows too much.”

"So it's time to go to Sichuan." A guard who was in the Zhou Kaihuang suddenly interrupted. He stared at the Anqing man and said, "Sichuan needs a teacher."

Sima Ping and Zhang Jungan stared at the Ming army guard together: "I won't let him run away, will I?"

"Don't worry, I will explain it to my brothers clearly. If he dares to run, he will break his legs and let him lie on the bed and pass through Kuimen." The Sichuan soldiers stared at the scholar: "He stayed to protect this child, and his life should not be lost."

...

Five Shandong people and one Anqing person followed Zhou Kaihuang out of the store, and were immediately blinded by the bright cold light on the road. After seeing Zhou Kaihuang coming out, hundreds of Ming soldiers turned around and saluted him. Zhou Kaihuang replied with a greeting. Today, Deng Ming held a meeting to discuss the bottom line of negotiations. Zhou Kaihuang was not interested in this and went out to patrol the battalions, which happened to be involved in this matter.

This is the regular cavalry company of the Ming army. Their outfits were uniform and their helmets were also the same. Zhou Kaihuang had the right to create a special helmet that suited his wishes, which was also one of the privileges of senior officers. These regular cavalry received wall-type charge training like the three walls. Most of their mounts were young war horses provided by Sichuan Mule and Horse Store, and their equipment costed a lot of money from Chengdu.

With Zhou Kaihuang waved his hand, hundreds of Ming cavalry turned over their horses, and the cavalry were always standing behind Zhou Kaihuang. No one or the horse made a sound, only the dense sound of horse hooves, and the clanging sound of armor pieces made by hundreds of armored soldiers when their bodies were bumping.

Wow, wow, wow.

Gao Yunxuan and others, who had always been brave, listened to the rhythmic metal collision sound, looked at the expressionless faces of the armored cavalry, and unknowingly, they forgot to talk and followed them silently to the Ming army camp. On that day, these envoys of Yu Qi met the Duke Baoguo himself.
