Chapter 1 [Shuttle to the Ming Dynasty]
The Song Empire, known as the richest man in Asia in the prosperous East, completely declined to the bottom after the Battle of Jingkang! Although Emperor Gong, Prince Gong of Song Ning Zongjia, was bent on restoring the territory of the Song Empire, after the failure of the Northern Expedition of Kaixi, no one in the entire court mentioned this matter.
At this moment, many people gathered outside the Yuhang Gate of Lin'an Mansion, the imperial capital, and they organized the slogan of the Northern Expedition to recover the lost land, among which Song Wuju (Wu Junzhen) was one of them.
Wu Junzhen, who seemed to be polite and polite, shouted with everyone, but this move quickly attracted the attention of the imperial court, and the Song Rite Minister: Shi Miyuan, sent the "Palace Division" Imperial Dragon Direct Forbidden Army out of the town to suppress the people, only to see a group of Song troops in silver and white armor at the gate of the city lined up in two teams.
One lined up in front with a spear, and the other lined up behind with bows and arrows, and everyone began to be a little frightened when they saw the imperial court send out the army of the palace front division! And the Song Rite Squire began to say: "Be bold and make up the people! Who made you presumptuous here? ”
The people who took the lead and shouted stood up and replied, "It was from below that they came, didn't the king of the plains just lose the battle!" Why do you want to be beheaded? And why didn't His Majesty continue to send a large army north? Please give us an explanation? ”
In the face of the shouts of this group of people, the Song Rite Servant was a little impatient! He scolded directly: "What do you know about the military affairs? When marching and fighting, it is necessary to eat food and pay silver, and the imperial court has been conquering the state treasury for many years! Besides, the Golden Man Iron Floating Slaughter is extremely powerful, who can beat it? ”
At this time, Wu Junzhen stood up and said: "The imperial court has an annual income of 70 million yuan, how can it be that there is no salary? If there is a shortage of soldiers, we can all join the army and serve the court. ”
Seeing that everyone was emotional, the Song Rite Ministry was afraid that they would recognize that they had framed themselves (Song Pingzhang's military affairs: Han Yanxuan), and at this moment, a light flashed in the dark clouds, and I saw a person falling from the sky? Everyone looked at him with amazement.
And the man on the ground slowly opened his eyes and got up, and saw that there were people in armor in front of him? There is actually an official in the middle wearing an official uniform and a long-winged hat? The man thought to himself; Could it be that he traveled to the Song Dynasty? Looking at the fierce official, the man said, "I'm sorry! Excuse me to continue. ”
However, the Song Rite Servant felt that this person was wearing strange clothes? Could it be that this group of people deliberately used it to scare him? Thinking of this, he was angry and ordered Song Yulong to release arrows from the forbidden army, and the arrows (whoosh, whoosh, whoosh) shot at the people, causing the people to turn around and run away one by one, and the man quickly ran away when he saw this.
At this moment, Wu Junzhen suppressed his anger and hid aside, and then the Song Rite Ministry attendant asked the Imperial Dragon Direct Forbidden Army to step forward and slash and kill.
But I don't know why the sky suddenly thundered, like the rhythm of heavy rain? And a tornado blew on the streets of Lin'an Mansion, scaring away the Song Yulong Forbidden Army! And Wu Junzhen, who was hiding next to the puppet cabinet, watched the tornado come menacingly and hit him.
He exclaimed, "Ah! Then he was swept into the whirlpool by the tornado, and because the wind was strong, the man in the strange costume clung to the pillar outside the street house, but he was still swept in, and several lightning bolts were thundered in the air.
In this way, the protagonist: Wu Junzhen, modern college student: Ma Wei, the two accidentally crossed over to the sixteenth year of Ming Chongzhen in 1643 AD Xingdu stayed in the territory of Sixian Lingwei.
This day happens to be the first day of the first month of the New Year's Day, originally according to the customs of the Ming Dynasty the people should be (lanterns), a lively family in the house to eat dumplings, but since the outbreak of the plague and the nearby area often have intrusion activities, so the people are either infected with the plague and died! Either that or join the rebellion.
At the beginning of the unitary period, a group of soldiers riding war horses and wearing (chain mail) returned with a full load, pulling the grain they had just snatched to the road of the Xianling guard, and the soldiers in front of them walked and walked, and they saw two people lying in the grass next to the official road? The soldier hurriedly said, "Look, there are two people over there?" ”
The leader of the Hushan Department of the Breaking Army: Fang Huasheng, ride forward and let the two soldiers go to check if they are still alive? By the way, see if you are suffering from the plague? And what is of value on you?
So the two soldiers walked over timidly, took a look at them from a distance, and found that there was no epidemic between the two of them, so they ran over but saw that they were dressed strangely? One is wearing (Shishu Tang scarf clothes), and the other is wearing strange clothes? And the hair is still short cut?
But the soldiers couldn't care so much, so they put down their spears and reached out to test their noses, and when they learned that they still had respiratory symptoms, the soldiers began to search their bodies.
They found 30 pieces of money on a man wearing a Shishu Tang scarf, and 10 red (treasure money) on another man wearing a strange costume? And three token-like things? The soldiers picked up the red treasure money and took a closer look, and found that it was not the same as the treasure money of the Ming Dynasty?
The treasure banknote of the Ming Dynasty is printed with the words (Ming Pass Treasure Banknote), but the treasure banknote in their hands does not have this word, but there is a person's head engraved on the right?
At this time, the soldier next to him said, "Look, why are there two circles in the middle?" And a stick? Still handwriting on it? Could that be a hint that we should go to the market to exchange eggs? ”
Another soldier knocked him on the head and said, "Are you stupid? Are we breaking into the army or do we need to change things? Wouldn't it be okay to grab what you want? In my opinion, this treasure note and the man in strange clothes on the ground don't look like a Ming person! It's like a merchant from Fanbang? Let's be illiterate, so let's take them to the head of the ministry to see, right? ”
So the soldiers threw away the token (actually a bank card) and helped up the two people on the ground and brought them over to the general manager of the Hushan Department of the Chuang Army, and handed over the treasure money found to the general manager, which made the general manager of the Hushan Department of the Chuang Army feel a little strange?
He ordered the two to be carried back to see King Chuang: Li Zicheng, at this time, he had just captured the Jingzhou Mansion and Xiangyang Mansion of Hu Guangcheng Xuan, and King Chuang, who was sitting at the foot of Hongshan, was holding a banquet to celebrate, and the generals of the Chuang army who were patrolling from all walks of life also returned to the camp one after another, and the vanguard general of the Chuang army: Liu Zongmin, sat outside the camp tent and drank a few bowls of wine, and saw that the Hushan Department of the Chuang Army returned with a cart of food and materials.
The vanguard general was overjoyed, and hurriedly put down the wine bowl, stepped forward and shouted, "Hey, you guy, what did you bring back to the brothers today?" ”
I saw the general of the Hushan Department of the Chuang Army dismount and clasp his fists with both hands and replied, "General Qiyu, the little one grabbed three stones of grain, twenty horses, and one hundred weapons and armor near Xianlingwei, oh yes! Two other suspicious men found? ”
Hearing about a suspicious person? The vanguard general asked the soldiers to bring them up, looking at the two people in different costumes in front of him, the vanguard general suddenly had a plan? He whispered to the general manager of the Hushan Department of the Chuang Army, "Go and peel off a few Ming army armors and change them on." ”
The general manager of the Hushan Division, who did not know why, had to take the soldiers down to do it with a confused face, but he planned not to hand over the treasure money for the time being.
Soon it was dark, and in the barracks of the Chuang Army, many tables were set up for banquets, and the generals and soldiers of the Chuang Army drank heartily, chatting and eating big fish and meat, and the two people who were changed into the blue (cloth armor) of the Daming Guard Army were tied up in the camp tent, and the men in strange clothes woke up.
He opened his eyes and looked around through the light on the wall, and found that he was actually tied up? And wearing a Ming army cloth face armor? And there was a tied man next to him who was also wearing a cloth face armor? The man thought to himself; Could it be that I'm here in the Ming Empire?
But doesn't it feel right when you think about it? Didn't you travel to the Song Dynasty before? Why did you come to Daming again? With a question, the man moved his body and pushed the person next to him a few times.
Wu Junzhen was shaken and slowly woke up, he saw that he was wearing armor and was tied up by ropes? He was shocked and ready to shout, "Come...?" ”
Seeing this, the man hurriedly whispered, "Shhh Don't be silent! We seem to have been caught by thieves. Wu Junzhen asked, "What should Brother Tai do now?" ”
The man looked around and saw a flat stone on the ground, he tried his best to stretch out his foot to hook the stone, and then stretched out his hand to take the flat stone to cut the rope, and the more Wu Junzhen looked at the armor on his body, the more strange he felt? Then he asked, "Brother Tai, dare to ask why these thieves want us to change into this armor?" ”
The man didn't understand what was going on either? Soon the rope on the man's body was cut, and he immediately picked up a flat stone to help Wu Junzhen cut the rope, but unexpectedly cut Wu Junzhen's hand with excessive force.
I saw Wu Junzhen inadvertently shouting, "Ah! It hurts, it hurts. ”
This shout alarmed the passing soldiers, and a group of soldiers walked in, and happened to see the scene of the man helping Wu Junzhen cut the rope, and the soldiers shouted, "You dare to run away? ”
At this moment, the man was immediately startled when he saw the soldier in front of him! Hurriedly said with a hippie smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, this rope is uncomfortable, and I want to loosen it." ”
Who knew that the intruders swarmed up and beat the man angrily, and then tied the rope before turning to leave, the man was beaten to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and Wu Junzhen scolded, "These damn Song soldiers!" Seeing that after I go out, I will definitely go to Beijing to sue the emperor. ”
As soon as the words fell, the man retorted, "It's useless! It's not that dynasty anymore! Wu Junzhen thought it was strange after hearing this? Then he asked, "Why did Brother Tai say this?" ”
I saw the man open his mouth and replied, "Now that we have arrived in Daming, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go back!" ”
This made Wu Junzhen feel very strange? He thought to himself; Da Ming? Where is this Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains? What about my Song Empire? Suddenly, a series of questions surrounded his heart, and Wu Junzhen asked again, "Dare to ask who Brother Tai is?" Why did you know that we are in Daming? ”
