Hearing a voice, General Mingning Yuanwei hurriedly said to the general soldier of Mingning Yuanwei beside him, "Lord General, is someone calling you?" ”

When he looked back, he found that it was actually the soldier he left behind in Ning Yuanwei? Two of Ning Yuanwei Mingjun, who were riding horses, were injured and fell off their horses directly! Fortunately, he was helped up by the Guan Ning army, and Ming Ning Yuanwei put the general manager: Guo Dan, came over and asked, "Why did you come with you?" How is Ning Yuanwei doing? ”

The soldier who was supported opened his mouth and said, "After General Wu left, there were Eastern cavalry attacking the city, and the guerrilla master was shot and killed by Eastern Prisoner!" Lord Calmer is in the back. ”

Following the soldier's words, Ming Ning Yuanwei raised his head and looked over, and sure enough, he saw Ming Ning Yuanwei Zhenfu riding over, and saw that Ming Ning Yuanwei hurriedly saluted the general on horseback and said, "Little one, please meet Lord Zhenfu." ”

I saw Ming Ning Yuanwei Zhenfu asked, "Where is the chief soldier?" ”

At this time, the general soldier of Mingning Yuanwei, who was wearing a Wanli helmet and waist-length armor, strode over, and before he could speak, Mingning Yuanwei reported to Zhenfu: "Lord Qiyu General Soldier, leave a team of soldiers and horses behind, the Dongyu cavalry has already pursued over!" It's going to happen soon. ”

Hearing this news, the general soldiers of the Ming Ning Yuanwei immediately ordered the Guanning Iron Cavalry to stay behind the palace to strike at the Dongyu Tartars, so as to cover the Ming Army of Ning Yuanwei and let them take the people south to the Guangning Central Reserve Imperial Thousand Households, but the generals around him felt that there was no need for this, who was rejected by the stubborn Wu General Soldier, he resolutely took the Guanning Iron Cavalry to stop on a small slope and wait quietly.

The Manchu Han army tracking in the rear was led by a yellow flag, and as he walked, he found that the Ming army in front of him had disappeared? He immediately summoned the soldiers and asked, "Where did all the Ming troops in front go?" ”

The soldier hesitated and said, "This, perhaps...?" Enraged, he killed his soldiers with a single sword, and led them on to a green plain, where an army suddenly appeared in the endless steppe.

Standing on the small slope on the left side to observe, the general soldier of the Ming Ning Yuanwei took a closer look and found that there was only a yellow flag of the Han army carrying a green flag! And there is no Dongyu flag? Even the deputy commander-in-chief of the Mingning Yuanwei said, "Lord Commander, there is no cavalry in this army in front of you?" Do you want to fight it? ”

The general soldier of the Mingning Yuanwei, who hesitated for a moment, clenched his saber and spoke, "The fire gun team is out to load and shoot. ”

In an instant, a platoon of Guanning munitions stood up, each holding a different firearm; The Kidnapper Gun, the Thunderbolt Gun, the Ten Square Gun, the Five Thunder God Gun, the Bird Gun, etc., began to reload and suppress the fire.

Next, the Guanning Arms Squad began to raise their guns to aim at the Manchu Han Army's Yellow Flag Army, which was 200 paces away, under the command of the flag waver. Scattered shots of lead bullets strafed and hit the Han army's yellow flags wearing armor and cloth armor.

After discovering that there was an enemy situation, the leader of the Manchu Han army with a yellow flag immediately turned his head to look to the left, he was hit by a lead bullet, and his horse quickly fell to the ground, and before he could get up, he saw the elite cavalry coming from a distance with billowing gunsmoke.

This group of cavalry was fully armed from head to toe, even the war horses were armoured, and they all shot rhythmically with three-eyed guns, hitting the side of the Han army's yellow flag soldiers, and no more than fifty people were really killed by the enemy due to the accuracy problem! It just played a deterrent effect and a suppressive force.

Of course, the Han army with yellow flags also began to arrange a counterattack, and immediately listed a team of archers to shoot at the charging Ming cavalry.

However, when the oncoming Ming cavalry approached the front of the enemy army, they immediately raised their three-eyed guns and smashed them on the heads of the Han army's soldiers with yellow flags. ”

At this time, a voice behind him blurted out: "That's right, on the opposite side is the Guanning Iron Cavalry, which once defeated the Eight Banners of the Qing Army and was famous for Ning Yuanwei, in the Hexi Corridor. ”

As soon as he heard that it was the famous Guanning Iron Cavalry, this frightened the Manchu Han Army with a yellow flag, and he saluted with trembling hands, "See the Han Bachelor, you are a veteran in dealing with Guanning Iron Cavalry, please advise one or two!" ”

Manchu Han Dynasty Bachelor: Hong Chengchou, touched his beard and said, "Guanning Iron Cavalry is the only force in the Liaodong Capital Division that can compete with the elite cavalry of our army, the predecessor is the Ming Prince, Taibao Ning Yuanbo, Liaodong General Soldier: Li Chengliang, the formation of the Liaodong Iron Cavalry into a strong cavalry, if you want to repel them, you can only use heavy artillery to suppress, in the spear infantry to stab the horse's leg can be broken." ”

In fact, what the Manchu Han University Bachelor said was nothing for the Manchu Han Army's Yellow Flag Leader, so he was a little disappointed!

Soon the Guanning Iron Cavalry launched a second round of impact, they each changed into the saber on their waists, and killed them with the superior speed of the Liaodong war horse, raising the Yanling knife and slashing at the heads of the Han army's yellow flag soldiers, and quickly killed one Han army with yellow flags one after another.

The soldiers with yellow flags of the Han army who set up arrows were afraid when they saw the Guanning iron cavalry charging head-on, so they had to put the Han army's yellow flag spearmen in front of them and prepare to stab the horse's legs, but before the Guanning iron cavalry approached, they turned around and took out the three-eyed gun on their waists and continued to shoot the Han army's yellow flag spearmen.

In this way, the Manchu Han army, which had been fighting back and forth, was defeated and retreated, and the deputy commander of the Ming Ning Yuanwei on the small slope also ordered the artillerymen to open fire and bombard the retreating Han soldiers with yellow flags.

When retreating, the Manchu Han scholar also glanced back at Guan Ning Tieqi, and secretly thought to himself; Uncle! I haven't seen you for many years, I didn't expect you to be the same as before, so stubborn! After sighing, the Manchu Han scholars rode away.

When the general guard of the Ming Ning Yuan Guard in the front team saw the enemy withdrawing, he also waved his hand to signal the army to stop the pace of pursuit and retreat to catch up with the vanguard.

The Manchu Han army who fled and retreated in embarrassment here, with yellow flags, was particularly happy when he saw the Dongyu cavalry holding high the white dragon flag and the yellow dragon flag, and hurriedly took the soldiers of his headquarters to report to the Manchu Emperor's father, the regent, "His Royal Highness the Regent, there are a large number of Ning Yuanwei's Guanning iron cavalry troops in front of them, and their subordinates have just fought with them, but unfortunately there is no cavalry and they can't deal with them!" But His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is different, there is...? ”

I saw that the regent of the Manchu Emperor's father immediately interrupted him and said, "Did Lone let you provoke them?" How elite is the Guanning Iron Cavalry? How can an idle man like you be able to match it? ”

But the Manchu Han army with a yellow flag still wanted to make a suggestion, but was called down by the Manchu emperor's father, the regent, and instructed the Manchu Guangning Wei general soldiers: Zu Dale, come up and the king drove forward and saluted, "The sin will meet the emperor's father, His Royal Highness the regent!" ”

This time, the regent of the Manchu Emperor's father instantly smiled, he opened the bead curtain with his hand and walked down slowly, looked at the Manchu Guangning Wei General Soldier and said, "Zu Zongbing, there is one thing that you need to do right now, I wonder if Zu Zongbing is willing to help Gu finish it?" ”

The Manchu Guangning Guard, who didn't know what he meant, lowered his head nervously and said, "What His Royal Highness the Lord Regent has ordered will definitely be completed. ”

After confirming his eyes, the Manchu Emperor's father, the regent, raised his head, put his hands behind his back and said, "Right now, your cousin is not in the army, I hope to borrow your hand to write a letter to your nephew Daming Ning Yuanwei: Wu Sangui, let him surrender to my Daqing?" I don't know if this busy ancestor is willing to help? ”

Hearing this, the Manchu Guangning Wei General nodded and ordered his soldiers to bring pen, ink, paper, and inkstones to write envelopes, while the rest of the army was arranged by the Manchu Emperor Regent to camp on the spot to hold the Ningyuan Central Right Reserve Imperial Thousand Households and the newly occupied Ningyuanwei area.

The time soon came on March 16th, in the imperial capital of the Forbidden City Shouning Palace, Princess Ming Kunxing: Zhu Yujiao, was sitting in the palace looking at the flowers she picked in a daze, a palace maid trotted over and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiyu, there is a Fa Ke outside the palace who wants to see you, saying that he is helping the princess to take a pick?" ”

When the curious Princess Mingkunxing heard about this, she didn't want to meet, but she thought about it if it was Vake (matchmaker) sent by her father? Not wanting to offend her father and wanting to refuse Nacai, she decided to meet with Vake.

was summoned to the main hall of Shouning Palace: Bao Sanniang, smiled and saluted, "The old body greets Her Royal Highness the princess, may the princess be a hundred years old!" ”

Princess Ming Kunxing, who was not interested in Vake, ignored her, but picked up (flower watering) to water the flowers leisurely, and saw that Vake next to her was a little embarrassed! Vake, who knew that he was not interesting, said: "Since Her Royal Highness the princess is not interested in listening to the old body, there is no need to talk about the family business of the prince of the young temple and the princess!" The old body retired. ”

Disappointed, Vake turned and walked towards the outside of the palace, only to hear Her Royal Highness the Princess shouting, "Wait! The palace maids immediately stopped Vake, and let Princess Mingkunxing step forward and asked, "Just now, Vake said that he was here for the son of which family?" ”

Vake introduced: "It's the son of Zhou of the Shaoqing Zhou family of the Taifu Temple!" How is Her Royal Highness the princess intended? ”

Shy, she turned around and was silent for a long time before nodding slightly, and said, "This princess has a relationship with the son of the Zhou family, and his character is not bad, and he is a person worthy of being entrusted for life!" ”

When Vake saw that Her Royal Highness the Princess agreed to this family affair, she immediately said, "Okay, the old body, let's go back to His Majesty the Emperor...!" Before he could finish speaking, Vake reacted and said that he was exposed.

And when Princess Ming Kunxing heard that it was a family affair arranged by her father, she loved and hated (what she loved was that her father actually chose the same person she loved, so why didn't she say it earlier?). So Vake proceeded to the third step (Najib) and prepared to go back and let the other party choose a good day and auspicious day, after all, the second step (asking the name) The Queen Mother and His Majesty the Emperor had already handed over the birthday of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

At the same time, in the hall of the Zhou Mansion outside the capital, Zhou Hongjin, the Shaoqing of the Ming Xing Taifu Temple, talked with the famous Liu Banxian in the capital and said, "This is the eight characters of the child's birthday and the birth date of the married woman, and please ask Mr. to help calculate a hexagram to see if it fits?" ”

Liu Banxian, who had his eyes closed, pinched his fingers with his hand and counted it, thinking that their marriage might not be good! But he still opened his eyes and picked up the eight characters of the two and matched them, and unexpectedly found that they were the eight characters of mutual restraint, and if they were forced together, something would definitely happen, so Liu Banxian wanted to tell Lord Shaoqing of Xingtaifu Temple the truth.

At this time, Zhou Xian, a Ming cavalry lieutenant wearing a gray-blue regular uniform, walked into the lobby, he looked at Liu Banxian and his father, and saluted very politely, "The child greets his father and Mr. Liu, I don't know how the eight characters are paired?" His Majesty the Emperor has just sent someone to urge us to ask when we will apply? ”

Liu Banxian, who was deeply helpless, had to swallow what he wanted to say just now, and changed it to "This March 21 is a good day, a good day and an auspicious day." ”

So Ming Qi Duwei set March 21 as the day to marry Princess Ming Kunxing, and asked the family to prepare a dowry, which is to show that the man acknowledges and thanks the woman's parents for their nurturing grace to their daughter, that is, once the wedding cake (50 kilograms).
