readx; Just as Zhu Youzhen was anxiously looking at the Manchu camp at the head of the city, a cavalry team of about 4,000 men was trudging from south to north on a rugged mountain road in the Yanshan Mountain Range, about 200 miles west of the Beijing Division. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the head of the group were two generals, one of whom was thin and pale, as if he was sick, but his eyes showed firmness and optimism; the other was a young 'female' general, who was draped all over his body and had a heroic posture, but from time to time he peeked at the general beside him worriedly, and could not help but sigh softly.

There was a steep mountain road ahead, and everyone had to dismount and walk. The general was out of breath after walking for a while, but he gritted his teeth and walked forward. The 'female' general said distressed and angry: "You have to be sick like this!" Okay, okay, since we set off from Yixian County yesterday, we have walked more than 200 miles of mountain roads, and the soldiers are also very tired, so we must take a break and eat some dry food. ”

"Okay, then give the order to go down and rest in place." The general took a few more breaths before saying, "Scouts should be on guard, the rest of the departments are only allowed to eat dry food, and it is strictly forbidden to raise fires." It is now two o'clock, and when the hour comes, we will continue our march. This is already the boundary of the security state of Shuntian Prefecture, and the Tatar cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and it is likely to be nearby, but the enemy must not be allowed to find out. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he sat on the big stone by the roadside, but the 'female' general immediately said angrily: "Get up for me!" This stone is so cold, how can you sit on it directly! ”

As he spoke, he took out a cotton mat from the coat of the war horse and carefully spread it on the stone, so that the general could sit down. took out another handkerchief, and while carefully wiping the sweat from his forehead for him, he chattered: "I didn't expect that it was only August, and the mountain wind in the north was so hard. You haven't done well yet, but you can't catch a cold anymore! ”

Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers all avoided it with interest, and the general also felt embarrassed by the boss, and said with a red face: "Miss Ma, you can rest too." Since the class teacher, thanks to your use of yellow 'flower' artemisia to prepare 'medicine' along the way, the malaria situation of the soldiers has gradually improved. ”

Unexpectedly, the 'female' general didn't appreciate it, glared at him fiercely and said, "You still say!" Every time you are asked to use 'medicine', you don't need to use the full amount, and you also distribute it to other patients. Now everyone else is almost better, but you can't, and the yellow 'flower' artemisia is almost running out! Look at your sick appearance now, how can you fight with the tartars? ”

The general smiled apologetically, and before he could speak, the 'female' general said angrily: "Also, you always say that the saint is so good and so good, I think he is really partial!" You are sick like this, but Li Laiheng is alive and well, why do you let Li Laiheng walk the plains and let you walk the mountain road? Isn't that bullying? ”

The general hurriedly said in a deep voice: "Miss Ma's words are wrong! In fact, the road to Heng is much more dangerous than ours, we just work harder. Speaking of which, it's the Holy One who takes care of me. ”

"I'd rather have a good fight with the Tartars!" The 'female' general was still unconvinced, "Could it be that the Tartar is a tiger and an elephant?" It's not all one nose and two eyes, what's so scary! I really don't understand why the Holy Lord let a large number of soldiers and horses stop in Baoding Mansion and go straight to King Qinwang with us. ”

This chattering 'female' general is none other than Ma Qianxue, the 'daughter' of Shi Yanxuan's envoy Qin Liang's 'jade', and now she has been promoted to a third-grade general with her military exploits. And the general who looked at her with a wry smile on his face was Li Dingguo, the general of Dingnan and the chief military officer of Zhengyipin.

After the Battle of the Southwest, Li Dingguo and Li Laiheng were ordered to immediately shift their divisions, and the white pole soldiers were stationed in Shuixi and Yongning to deal with the aftermath. It stands to reason that Ma Qianxue should also return to Qin Liang's 'jade', but she refused to leave the expeditionary force under the pretext that Li Dingguo and other soldiers were suffering from malaria and must be taken care of by her.

But what Ma Qianxue said is indeed the truth. Li Laiheng's department is better, Li Dingguo's four thousand cavalry, at least five or six hundred infected with malaria, if it weren't for Ma Qianxue's white pole soldiers to collect a large number of yellow 'flower' artemisia, and personally dispensed 'medicine' for the soldiers, I am afraid that including Li Dingguo, these people would have been ill a long time ago, and even died in the southern country.

After Qin Liang 'Yu' discussed with the second general, he also agreed to let Ma Qianxue follow the expeditionary force north, and when she returned to Beijing, Langzhong would replace her, and then let her return to Sichuan. But she also knew that her 'woman's 'sex' was like fire, and she had never left her mother much, for fear that she would violate military regulations by playing with her young lady's temper, so she gave thousands of instructions before leaving, until Li Dingguo assured her that Ma Qianxue would never be fine.

When the expeditionary force went south, it was 10,000 horses, in addition to those who were martyred in the battle, and left 500 people each in Yiling and Zigui to prevent thieves from entering Shu from Xiajiang Road, and now there are only 8,000 people left. They first took a boat down the river from Chongqing, soon arrived in Jingzhou, Hubei, and then traveled north from Jingzhou.

But when you come quickly, it's not so easy to go back. First of all, Li Dingguo and other soldiers suffered from malaria, their physical fitness decreased greatly, and their marching speed slowed down a lot; Secondly, the prefectures and counties along the way still tried every means to shirk and refused to supply grain and grass. In particular, Hong Chengchou, who was stationed in the Xiangyang area, strictly ordered officials in various localities to 'hand' over all food and salary to his "Hong Bing" battalion, and not a single grain of surplus grain could be left. Therefore, this expeditionary force, which had just won a great victory in the southwest, was actually "triumphant" all the way hungry, and it was really embarrassing to the extreme.

finally walked to the territory of Henan, and suddenly Huang Taiji led the army into the Kou. Li Dingguo and Li Laiheng received the holy decree, and they were even more like arrows; However, the prefectures, counties, and health offices along the way were afraid that the imperial court would transfer local officials and troops to the north to Qinwang, so they also arranged five 'flowers' and eight 'gates' for this reason. Some say that thieves are attacking the city, some say that bandits are attacking and harassing, some say that they have no food and no pay, and they are really unable to send troops, and even some officers and generals directly pretend to be sick or falsely report their worries. Fortunately, Zhu Youzhen didn't point to these people at all, otherwise he would have to delay the big thing.

The expeditionary force marched to Baoding Mansion in a hurry, and finally received the emperor's flying pigeon message again. In this edict, which was classified as "top secret," Zhu Youzhen ordered the two generals to divide into two routes: Li Laiheng turned northeast and penetrated the Jizhou area from between Jingshi and Tianjinwei, while Li Dingguo continued to rush north to Xuanfu.

This top-secret edict was only read by Li Dingguo and Li Laiheng. In order to prevent leaks, they did not explain the reason to their subordinates, but were ordered to set off immediately. Ma Qianxue was also angry because she didn't understand this.

Seeing that Ma Qianxue was still puffing up, Li Dingguo had to enlighten her and said, "It's not bad to walk the mountain road!" Miss Ma was born in Sichuan since she was a child, and she hasn't been to the northern border yet, right? 'Poet Immortal' Li Bai has a poem: Yanshan Snow 'flowers' are as big as a seat, and pieces are blown down Xuanyuan Terrace. Isn't it also worth seeing the spectacle of snowfall in August? ”

Ma Qianxue is a young 'woman' and 'sex', when she heard Li Dingguo say this, she replied with disgust: "Really? That's great, if it snows for a while, you'll have to have some fun with me! How about we build a snowman? ”

Li Dingguo smiled dumbly, and was about to say something, when suddenly Jin Tongwu, the general under his command, hurried over like a whirlwind and said: "General, there is a trace of Tartar ahead!" ”
