Liu Xia did not doubt that he comforted softly: "I have already sent someone to look for her, I will definitely find her, don't think about anything else, just cultivate here." ”

Bian Yujing looked at Liu Xia with a smile and said with those beautiful big eyes: "Yes, the concubine obeys orders." ”

"Hahaha" Liu Xia said with a smile: "Well, don't disobey, otherwise the general will definitely punish him severely." ”

Bian Yujing chuckled and said: "The general should let those maids in the courtyard do whatever they want, I'm not a patient, I don't need so many people to take care of me, just leave one or two girls." They said that they had received your order, and I asked them to go back to their own business, but they didn't dare. ”

Liu Xia nodded and said, "Okay, I'll talk about it in a while." Liu Xia stretched out his hand to hold Bian Yujing's little hand, and Bian Yujing's face suddenly turned red.

…………

Dozens of days have passed, and the Qing army has not yet arrived, but it is said that the regent Dolgon was not furious when he heard that Guide Mansion was occupied, but laughed on the spot and said: "I have finally found you, and this time I must annihilate you all!" ”。 At this time, Dolgon was selecting a general to come, and the rations and soldiers had now been chosen, and he was waiting for the commander to be determined, and then he marched towards Guide Mansion.

At the same time, the Hongguang regime in Nanjing also knew about Liu Xia's capture of Guide Mansion, and there was a burst of joy in the Southern Ming court.

Hongguang Emperor Zhu Youxiang's face was pale, his eyes were squinted, and he sat on the dragon chair expressionlessly, looking drowsy, and the ministers below were talking left and right one by one, and they didn't put this emperor in their eyes at all.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

Emperor Hongguang was hurriedly startled, trembled on the dragon chair, and hurriedly said: "What's the matter with Ma Aiqing, hurry up, I still have important things." ”

Shi Ma Shiying of Dongge University said loudly: "Your Majesty, Pingbeibo, who defeated Duoduo before, has now captured the Guide Mansion and killed all the Tartars in the Guide Mansion. ”

As soon as Ma Shiying's words fell, the ministers below immediately discussed.

"This news turned out to be true, I thought it was fake, I heard that this person is the son of Liu Zhaoji, the chief soldier of Gaoyou, called Liu Xia. looks mighty and proficient in eighteen kinds of martial arts, and is a general! ”

"It turned out to be the son of Liu Zongbing, sure enough, it was a tiger father without a dog, Liu Zongbing killed countless enemies, served the court and died for the country, Liu Xia should inherit his father's ambition, he should return to Nanjing City to protect His Majesty, why did he go so far away from Guide Mansion? It's really rude. ”

At this time, Qian Qianyi also said to Emperor Hongguang: "Your Majesty, this Liu Xia is so powerful, he can defeat Duoduo, it must be good, Your Majesty still let Liu Xia return to Nanjing City as soon as possible, let him guard Nanjing, and not let the Tartars have a chance to call." ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Qian is right, you must let Liu Xia come to Nanjing as soon as possible to protect Your Majesty's safety."

Soon the entire court said that they wanted Liu Xia to return to Nanjing, because these people were also afraid of the Tartars attacking Nanjing City, they knew in their hearts that they were experts and grandmasters, but they couldn't defend the city and fight with the Tartars, and now they found that Liu Xia was such a powerful person, so it was natural to let Liu Xia protect them.

If it weren't for Liu Xia's defeat of Duoduo, maybe these ministers would have been out of Nanjing City a long time ago, and they still attached great importance to their own lives.

Emperor Hongguang squinted his small eyes, because his eyes could not be opened no matter how much he opened, and the flesh of his face trembled, like a pig's head.

"What does Ma Aiqing think?"

Ma Shiying said sharply: "Your Majesty, this Liu Xianai is the son of Liu Zhaoji, the former Gaoyou commander-in-chief, and is a tiger general, with an elite army of thousands of people in his hands. Liu Xia's ability to defeat Duoduo and capture Guide was enough to prove that he was a usable talent, and His Majesty immediately issued an edict asking him to return immediately to protect the city of Nanjing. ”

Emperor Hongguang yawned and said impatiently: "Ma Aiqing, what you say, go and make a holy decree to let this Liu and Liu Xia come back." ”

"Obey orders"

Emperor Hongguang immediately asked: "Ma Aiqing, I want to expand the palace maids, and you are now ordering a beauty pageant in Jiangnan." ”

Ma Shiying frowned, and finally said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely choose the best beauty for Your Majesty." ”

"Uh-huh" Emperor Hongguang nodded, and then nodded to a eunuch beside him, who immediately understood, took a few steps forward and shouted loudly: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat." ”

"Retreat from the Dynasty ~~~"

…………

The Southern Ming Dynasty court was writing the holy decree, and then sent someone to send it to the Guide Mansion where Liu Xia was located, but the people who sent the holy decree were a few eunuchs, and the march was naturally very slow, and it took several days or even longer to arrive.

Guide to the province

Today is a good day, and the whole army is jubilant, because today a new uniform will be issued, and the uniform has now been completed, and all the soldiers have come to the training ground in the city in the order of each battalion to change their uniforms.

The clothes worn by these soldiers were all shabby and messy pieces of cloth, none of them were uniform, and they looked like a bunch of poles, and those clothes were worn for an unknown period of time, and how many patches had been patched on them.

Guide training ground

On the northernmost side of the training ground was erected a new flag, the flagpole was tens of meters high, and a yellow dragon flag with a black background was hung on it, fluttering in the breeze, looking lifelike.

Liu Xia and some of his own soldiers who had already changed their clothes stood on the north side of the training ground, and next to them were a lot of military uniforms and weapons.

The first to change the uniforms were the battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders of each battalion, and hundreds of people stood in front of Liu Xia, and now they had put on their new uniforms, and the black uniforms looked filled with a breath of death, giving the enemy a deterrent effect.

This new military uniform looks very trendy, after all, Liu Xia is a modern person, and the design concept is naturally close to the present. These people have all changed into military uniforms now, but none of them are wearing epaulettes, and Liu Xia asked these generals to come over to issue epaulettes.

One of the guards took a few steps forward, took a list and read: "Wang Shishi, the commander of the guard battalion"

Wang Shishi stepped forward and bowed to Liu Xia, and Liu Xia said: "Lead the rank of martial arts."

After that, a personal guard stepped forward and handed Wang Shishi a set of major military ranks, and after Wang Shishi solemnly accepted the military rank, he took a few steps back and returned to his original position.

"Tiger Camp Commander Liu Dazhuang"

"Leading the Martial Arts Rank"

"Wolf Howling Battalion Commander Zhang Yuan"

"Leading the Martial Arts Rank"

"Lion Battalion Commander Niu Hu"

"Leading the Martial Arts Rank"

"Logistics Battalion Commander Wang En"

"Leading the Martial Arts Rank"

"Recruit Battalion Commander Zhang Liang"

"Leading the Martial Arts Rank"

"Chen Liu, deputy commander of the logistics battalion"

"Leading the rank of Yangwu Colonel" The reason why Chen Liu received the military training of the major was because Chen Liu was also Liu Xia's military advisor, and his identity was naturally different, so Liu Xia gave him the rank of Yangwu major, and Yu Mingjun and others from the Yingyang battalion were not here because they were sent out to perform tasks, so they didn't mention it.

Then the guard read: "Jiang Xin, deputy commander of the Tiger Battalion, Ma Peng, deputy commander of the Wolf Howling Battalion, Lei Ming, deputy commander of the Lion Battalion, Niu Chao, deputy commander of the recruit battalion, Meng Yu, director of the Supervision Department, and Wang Xiaotong, captain of the artillery brigade."

When these six people heard their names being recited, they stepped forward together and bowed to Liu Xia.

"Captain Leader"

Liu Xia walked down, and Liu Xia no longer participated in the next captain-level awarding of military ranks, but just watched from the sidelines.

Then the soldier continued to read the name, but these were some captains, although they were also the rank of captain of Fenwei, but their status was different from that of Ma Peng and the others.

The captain of the squadron conferred the rank of captain of Fenwei, the deputy captain of the squadron conferred the rank of lieutenant of Fen Yong, the squadron leader conferred the rank of lieutenant of Fen Yong, and the deputy squadron leader conferred the rank of second lieutenant of Fen Wu. After a while, the award ceremony ended quickly, and the soldiers who had received the rank looked curiously at the epaulettes in their hands.

"Go down and put on your epaulettes first, and then lead your soldiers to get their uniforms."

"Yes!" Hundreds of people spoke in unison

After that, Liu Xia left the training ground, but those battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders did not leave, although the issue of military uniforms can be done by the squadron leader and the captain, but the issue of epaulettes needs to be done by the battalion commander, and there are more squad leaders under the squadron leader, and these squad leaders are the most basic strength.

The rank of squad leader is not fixed, it may be a corporal, a sergeant, or a sergeant, which is awarded according to their respective merits.

All the soldiers in the recruit camp were awarded privates, and only a few who performed well as captains of a recruit could be awarded first class.

The soldiers of the Guards battalion were all veterans and elites, and the lowest were awarded corporals. In the other barracks, merit is awarded.

When the sun went down, all the soldiers received their own new uniforms and weapons.

"Zhang San, you see that you are still a first-class soldier, and Lao Tzu is now a corporal, much higher than you!" A veteran in his forties said with a smile at a soldier in his thirties beside him.

Zhang San looked at the big man in front of him angrily, and said: "Li Si, what do you have to do, isn't it just a corporal, the corporal is divided into three levels, you are just a lowest-level non-commissioned officer, Lao Tzu can be a non-commissioned officer by killing a few more people in the next war, besides, I am originally a recruit, you are a veteran to give me a comparison, you look at those veterans like you, now they are all ensignals, why don't you compare others." ”

After hearing this, Li Si's face suddenly showed annoyance, and he said, "Lao Tzu is better than you." If Lao Tzu hadn't been seriously injured that time and stayed in the logistics camp without a chance to participate in the battle, Lao Tzu would have become a Fenwu lieutenant a long time ago. "I left without looking back.

The recruit pursed his lips and said, "Wait, I'll be able to surpass you in the next battle." ”
