Zhang Shixing waited for Wugutai to stand up straight, then flew up and kicked him in the calf, using three points of strength, don't look at the Wugutai body, but he was very flexible, hurriedly raised his leg to avoid it, and reached out to grab Zhang Shixing's shoulders.

Zhang Shixing lowered his head slightly, passed under his right flank, turned around, raised his right foot and kicked the crook of Wugutai's right leg. If someone else is hit by this kick, he will inevitably kneel on one leg, and Zhang Shixing will put his arms around his neck from behind, and he will definitely be able to fall him to the ground. Who knew that Wugutai hit his kick, his legs were like steel pillars, he bent slightly, but he was in pain, and he pedaled forward and ran a few steps, and then stood up. On the contrary, Zhang Shixing was shocked to the point that his right foot was sore.

Wugutai turned around, roared angrily, lowered his body, and pounced forward like a tiger pounced, his hands were like pincers, fast as lightning, and grabbed Zhang Shixing's two shoulders. Zhang Shixing stretched out his right arm and made a high probe horse, trying to open Wugutai's left arm. Who knew that the other party didn't move, Zhang Shixing's right hand flipped over, pinched his left elbow joint, Wugutai's left arm was sore, and the left hand that grabbed Zhang Shixing's shoulder was released. Who knew that his right arm suddenly exerted force, pulled hard, Zhang Shixing stood unsteadily, staggered forward, and was about to fall to the ground, fortunately he has been practicing inner boxing for a long time, and his kung fu is profound, supporting the ground with his left palm, a harrier turned over, rose into the air, and fell steadily.

Seeing this, everyone in the audience let out a burst of applause.

Zhang Shixing turned around, also bent down, and stared at Wugutai. Both sides knew that they had encountered a strong opponent today, so they did not dare to be careless, so they circled each other and did not make any more moves.

Zhang Shixing suddenly stepped forward with his right foot, and his right hand grabbed Wugutai's left shoulder with the momentum of the step. Who knew that Zhang Shixing was a false move, his body flashed, his left foot stepped forward to take the opportunity to pin Wugutai's left leg, his right hand crossed the enemy's arm, and his left palm pushed hard, that Wugutai could not retreat, could not advance, his left foot left the ground, and he fell down on his back like a mountain.

Zhang Shixing made this move exactly the upper step of the inner fist.

Wugutai struggled on the ground for a while, got up again, and was about to pounce on Zhang Shixing again. Suddenly, a person outside the arena shouted, "Stop." "It was Fu Yuwei who commanded the servants.

It turns out that if the opponent hits the ground with both shoulders or backs, he must admit defeat, and if the opponent refuses to admit defeat and still has to play, then he must divide life and death to give up. An Chu was afraid of causing trouble, so King Ning blamed him and hurriedly stepped forward to shout to stop.

Wugutai turned his head and saw that it was Ande, so he stopped suddenly, took off the Jiangga from his neck, threw it on the ground, and walked out of the field.

Arutai led the people into the field, lifted Zhang Shixing together, cheered loudly, walked towards the big tent, and came to the tent before putting him down.

Zhang Shixing knelt down and kowtowed to Tana, and said, "Queen Mother, I am fortunate not to be dishonored. ”

Tana hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, with tenderness between her eyebrows, and the maid next to her handed Hada, who put Hada on his neck and said angrily: "In the future, without my permission, you are not allowed to take such risks." ”

King Ning handed over a bowl of mare's milk wine and said, "Zhang Tongzhi, a true hero." This king admits defeat. ”

Zhang Shixing took the silver bowl and drank it all.

Three days later, Tana led her men out of Daning City and headed for the Fishing Sea. On the occasion of parting, King Ning gave 3,000 ewes, accompanied by 100,000 yuan of Daming treasure banknotes, as Cheng Yi, and personally led Duoyan Sanwei to command the envoy to send more than ten miles north of the city, before he was reluctant to shed tears and say goodbye.

After walking for more than ten days, Tana felt that the marching speed was too slow, so she summoned Zhang Shixing, Batu, Arutai and others to come over to discuss, and decided to divide the subordinates into two parts, select more than 3,000 strong people, led by Arutai, to form a cowardly Xue army, with the mother and son of the king of Zhongning, ride two hundred miles a day, be sure to arrive at the fishing sea before April 12, survey the terrain, set up camp, and then turn back to meet the brigade. The rest of the old and infirm women and children were led by Batu to form an old battalion, and marched forty or fifty miles a day, for any time, until they joined Arutai.

Arutai was puzzled and asked: "This place is nearly three thousand miles from the fishing sea, and it is really tiring to run two hundred miles a day, I wonder why the Queen Mother must arrive before April 12." ”

Tana said coldly, "Because this day is my mother's death day." ”

Arutai was speechless for a while, and hurriedly apologized: "My subordinates don't know, I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me." ”

When Zhang Shixing heard this, tears welled up, and he said in a low voice: "It is also the death day of my parents." ”

There was silence in the tent.

Tana shook Zhang Shixing's hand, and in order to avoid embarrassment, she changed the topic and asked, "Those brocade-clothed captains under you may be able to keep up?" ”

Zhang Shixing smiled bitterly and said: "They are used to being pampered in Beijing, and this time they have traveled thousands of miles to the north, and they have already complained a lot. ”

Tana said: "In this case, I ordered them to return to Beiping the same way, and when the matter is over, you will return to Beiping to join them." ”

Zhang Shixing thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's all there is to do." But if I'm alone with you, how can I be called an escort? ”

Tana smiled at him and said, "You're enough. ”

Batu frowned and said: "Queen Mother, you have taken away all the strength, how can I protect these thirty or forty thousand people with my own strength, in case there are tribes on the grassland to rob the property, what is good?" ”

Tana said: "From now on, all the way to the north is the nomadic land of Duoyan Sanwei, after this Naadam conference, the reputation of our department must spread all over the grassland, and other idlers dare not come to offend, besides, in Kaipingwei I exchanged 100,000 catties of grain for 500,000 arrows, are they all vegetarians?" ”

Batu bowed his head and said nothing. Along the way, Tana was quick and decisive, and everyone was cleaned up by him.

Zhang Shixing heard Batu say this, and knew that the burden on his shoulders was really not light, so he made a round and said: "I don't think it's as good as this, my five hundred brocade captains also march with the old battalion, although they may not be able to march and fight, but after all, they are the emperor's own army, and it is okay to scare and scare people." What do you think? ”

When Batu heard this, he applauded repeatedly. Tana had no choice but to acquiesce.

The plan was decided, and the people went their separate ways.

According to Tana's instructions, Arutai divided the 3,000 men into three thousand troops on the left, center, and right, and practiced tactics during the march, divided into combined attacks, outflanked left and right, long-distance attacks, ambushes on all sides, and so on, completely according to the old system of the Mongol army training, to build an iron army.

Zhang Shixing saw all this in his eyes, and suddenly felt that Tana was Xiao Yanyan, the empress dowager of the Liao Dynasty, so what was he, could it be Han Derang? No, he will never be Han Derang. He wants to return to Beiping, return to Beijing, assist the emperor to do a great cause, glorify his ancestors, and leave a name in history.

After more than half a month of arduous trekking, the group finally arrived at a distance of more than ten miles on the south bank of Yuerhai on the evening of 11 April and set up camp.

Just like eleven years ago, the sky is still oblique like a hook, the stars are dotted, the fishing sea is still reflecting the stars and the moon, sparkling, the surrounding is still an endless prairie, mid-spring April, the grass is new, the shallow grass is still just without horseshoe, and the fragrance of wild flowers is still everywhere. But the parents are gone, the sound and smile are still there, and the world is a great change.

Early the next morning, Tana took little Bartel to the lake to worship and sweep, the former crowded, prosperous and lively Northern Yuan royal court, has long disappeared, only the barren grass desert remains. Tana ordered incense to be laid out, beef and sheep cheese were offered, and the people knelt down and prostrated together, and then prayed silently before she stood up.

Zhang Shixing also knelt down behind everyone and prayed: "Father, mother, the child has come to see you today, are you doing well in heaven?" Be of good cheer, the child is well. May your souls in heaven bless the world with well-being, and the tragedy of the separation of flesh and blood will not be repeated. ”

Little Battle looked up and asked his mother, "How did my grandparents die?" ”

Tana said with a frosty face, "It was killed by the Akito." ”

Little Battle was puzzled: "Then why are you still marrying them?" ”

Tana smiled bitterly and said, "When you grow up, you will naturally understand." ”

Little Battle asked, "Then am I a Ming or a Mongol?" ”

Tana touched the top of his head and said, "You came to the steppe to be the king, naturally you are a Mongolian." ”

Little Battle nodded and said: "Mother, you are Mongolian, my father Emperor Xiaokang (Zhu Biao) is Han, when I grow up in the future, I will not only be the king of the grassland, but also the king of the Han land, I want to be the co-master of the whole world." ”

Tana was relieved: "Good boy, ambitious. Do you dare to ride a horse yourself? ”

Little Battle exclaimed, "Of course I dare." ”

Tana said, "Okay, you can ride back to the camp by yourself." ”

Little Battle happily ran to the side of the jujube red horse, raised his leg and stepped on the stirrup, grabbed the saddle hard, and climbed up with all his might, and said proudly: "Mother, you see that I will get on the horse, and you don't need to hold me in the future." ”

Tana nodded happily and said, "My little Battle has grown up. ”

Little Battle flicked the reins, and the horse walked slowly forward, and Tana shouted from behind, "Be careful. Then he ordered his attendants to escort him back to the camp first.

Watching Little Battle and his party gradually move away, Tana turned around and smiled charmingly at Zhang Shixing: "My Ke'er, walk around with me." ”

Zhang Shixing took the horse, bowed to Tana and said, "Queen Mother, please get on the horse." ”

Tana grabbed the saddle with both hands, stepped on the stirrup with her left foot, twisted her waist, turned around, and said coquettishly: "Idiot, why don't you come and help me on the horse?" ”

Zhang Shixing's face turned red, and he hurried over, holding her soft waist with both hands, and with a gentle force, Tana flew on the horse, leaned down, stretched out her soft hair, and said with charming eyes: "Come up." ”

Zhang Shixing was so frightened that he took a step back, his face turned even redder, and he shook his head again and again: "Queen Mother, this is not in line with etiquette." ”

Tana pouted, not like the Queen Mother who commands thousands of troops and horses on weekdays, she is a coquettish little girl, and with a bit of the charm of a mature young woman, she pretended to be angry and said: "Don't call me the Queen Mother, call me old, call me a princess, you are my son, and you will listen to me for the rest of your life." Come up, come up. You forget, we rode side by side back then. ”

When Zhang Shixing heard this, his heart fluttered, remembering the beautiful scenery eleven years ago, he couldn't help but reach out and grab Tana's weak and boneless little hand, with a slight force, jumped on the horse's back, and gently wrapped Tana's delicate body, Tana leaned on his chest with a sigh, and a faint fragrance suddenly entered his nostrils, and he didn't feel his heart rippling. The big green horse walked slowly on the endless prairie, the breeze swept on his face, and the white clouds in the sky floated by, straight like a fairy world. The two of them believed in the reins, closed their eyes tightly, and were silent, intoxicated.
