Anding Town, Pingjiang County, Hunan Province is a small town surrounded by mountains between Pingjiang and Liuyang, the town is surrounded by trees, and there is only a small road that is not wide leading to the outside of the town.

The once peaceful town is now full of people shouting and neighing.

The people in the town have already fled into the mountains, and the town is full of the Eastern Route Army of the Dashun Army that has flowed here from Hubei.

The East Route Army was originally led by Li Zicheng, the emperor of Dashun State, and was pursued by the Qing soldiers and fled all the way from Xi'an to Hubei, but the emperor was killed in Jiugong Mountain, Tongshan County, Hubei, and the general Liu Zongmin was also captured and killed by the Qing soldiers, and the leaderless East Route Army fled all the way to Hunan.

After learning of Li Zicheng's death, Azig, the prince of Manchu Ying, thought that the mission of exterminating the Dashun army had been completed, and left Meler Zhangjing Tong Dai as the governor of Huguang to appease the rest of the Dashun army, and took the army back to Beijing for summer vacation.

At this time, the Dashun army was already in disarray, tens of thousands of horses and horses were dragged out of the town, and there were many old and young, men and women in the ranks, which did not look like a team, but like refugees.

The hall in the middle of a high-ranking family in the town was full of people at this time, and in the middle sat a woman wearing filial piety clothes, about thirty-five or sixteen years old, looking at her face, full of helplessness and pathos, it was Mrs. Gao Guiyinggao, the queen of Dashun Kingdom.

Behind Mrs. Gao stood a woman dressed in red, about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and her face was also extremely haggard, it was the wife of the general Li Yan, the red lady.

Since Li Yan was poisoned by the Dashun Emperor in Beijing, the Red Lady raised an army against Dashun, and the Qing soldiers attacked, and the Red Lady's team was pursued to Hubei, where they met the Dashun army.

The enemy is current, and the Emperor Dashun is dead, the red lady abandoned her personal grievances, merged the team into the Dashun army, and she has been following Queen Gao.

Since Empress Gao learned the news of the emperor's murder, she washed her face with tears all day long, saying that she would follow the emperor. The generals repeatedly persuaded her, but fortunately, the red lady came in time, which persuaded the queen to rest her heart of martyrdom, but her mental state was always bad, which made everyone very worried.

Azig's withdrawal gave the Dashun army a chance to breathe, and the generals of the Eastern Route Army escorted Empress Gao all the way from Hubei into Hunan.

Tangxia Zehou Tian Jianxiu, Yihou Zhang Nai, Mianhou Yuan Zongdi, Cihou Liu Fangliang, Guangshan Bo Liu Tichun, Taiping Bo Wu Ruyi, generals Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai, Niu Wancai, etc. all arrived.

"Now that the Qing army has stopped in Hubei, our army is in a slightly peaceful situation, but now that the army is running out of food and grass, we must take measures as soon as possible. I hope that the queen will take care of the phoenix body, don't be too sad, how we will behave, still waiting for the queen to show. ”

Mianhou Yuan Zongdi is a coarse and delicate person, seeing that the queen's eyes are dull, knowing that she has not yet come out of her sadness, she first opened her mouth to remind Mrs. Gao to cheer up, this is something more important than sadness.

"Empress Qiyu, the last general thinks that Dashun's mortal enemy is the Manchu Tartars, so it is better for me to vote for the Ming court, first, to ensure the safety of the queen, and secondly, everyone also has a place to go, and there is a source of grain and grass. I don't know what the queen thinks? Tian Jianxiu then suggested to the empress.

Zehou Tian Jianxiu's qualifications are very old, and his status in the Dashun army is similar to Liu Zongmin's difference in the past, and he was originally a pivotal figure in the Dashun army, but now there are only 7,000 people left under his command, compared with Hao Shaoqi, Liu Tichun and other generals who have tens of thousands of horses, but it is much less, and there are fewer soldiers and horses in their hands, and the right to speak in this army is much worse.

The two marquis began, and the generals immediately discussed, some agreed to surrender to the Ming court, and some were determined to fight to the death with the Ming army and the Qing army.

There was a lot of noise in the house, and a report from the scouts came from outside the door, saying that a dozen people had been arrested outside the town, saying that they had been sent by the governor and the governor of Huaiyang.

The Dashun army fled all the way from Shaanxi to Hunan, and the news was very closed, this Huaiyang Governor Shi Kefa had heard of it before, and as for this Huaiyang Metropolitan Governor, everyone had never known.

Yihou Zhang Nai asked the two leaders to be brought to the hall, and saw that one person in front was dressed as a Confucian student, but there was a girl in the back.

Before everyone could speak, the girl knelt down in front of the queen a few steps forward, crying and saying, "Madam, Xing'er has finally found you!" ”

It was Lu Wei and Xing'er who came, and Lu Wei led a group of people to make a detour through Zhejiang and Fujian, and made a big circle, and then they arrived in Hunan.

When they arrived in Hunan, they gradually heard some news of the Dashun army, and everyone hurried to hurry up, and then they arrived in the Pingjiang area.

After inquiring all the way, I learned that the Dashun army came between Pingjiang and Liuyang, so I advanced towards Pingjiang, and I didn't want to be arrested by the Dashun army in this Anding Town.

Hearing Xing'er crying and shouting "Madam", Lu Wei suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that his group of people was really lucky, and they went directly to Mrs. Gao's army.

Mrs. Gao looked at Xing'er carefully, but she didn't recognize it, so she asked, "Who are you and how do you call me Madame?" ”

When Xing'er saw that Mrs. Gao didn't recognize herself, she was suddenly a little anxious, and when she looked up and saw the red lady standing behind Mrs. Gao, she shouted with great joy: "Sister Red Lady, don't you know me either?" I'm a yellow-haired girl apricot from Henan! ”

When the red lady heard this, she took a few steps forward suspiciously, staring at Xing'er carefully, but she couldn't recognize it.

Known as the eighteenth change of the female university, Xing'er was only eleven or twelve years old when she was in the king army, and now she is fifteen years old, and her life is good, and she is also very beautiful, and she is no longer the yellow-haired girl of the year, no wonder Mrs. Gao and the red lady can't recognize it.

Xing'er thought for a while, stood up and put up a few martial arts shelves, the red lady looked at it, and said, "Are you a yellow-haired girl?" ”

"Sister Red Lady, it's me." When Xing'er saw that the red lady recognized herself, she was overjoyed.

"Where did you come from?" The red lady asked.

"Sister, we are from Yangzhou, Xing'er heard that King Chuang had been killed in Yangzhou, and she was worried about Madame, so she saved Dadu Governor and asked Xing'er to come to you, God is pitiful, I finally found Madame."

Xing'er talked about the murder of King Chuang, looking at Mrs. Gao in filial piety clothes, her eyes were red again, and she told Mrs. Gao and the red lady about her situation while crying.

Everyone in the room was amazed when they heard this.

"Miss Xing'er, isn't the Metropolitan Governor you are talking about a fairy, really falling from the sky?" Hao Shaoqi asked curiously.

"So that Mrs. Gao and the generals will know whether my family's Metropolitan Governor is a god or not, and the students don't know, but the Metropolitan Governor and a few people descended from the sky in a divine car, and the students really saw it on the Yangzhou city wall."

Seeing that Xing'er couldn't speak clearly, Lu Wei hurriedly stepped forward and explained the origin of Luo Jian and the others to everyone.

"Is there such a thing? Could it be that the heavens also hate this tartar and sent a few angels to the lower realm to help Daming? Cihou Liu Fangliang asked curiously.

"Most of my family governors said that the Manchu Tatars want to enslave China, and now that China has reached the most dangerous time, all Chinese should abandon their past suspicions and resist the invasion of the Manchu Tatars to the outside world. By the way, the governor of my family also said a lot to Mrs. Gao and the generals, Xing'er, why don't you hurry up and let it be heard by everyone? ”

Lu Wei beckoned Xing'er to take out her mobile phone and play the video in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to everyone.

Xing'er then remembered that she still had Luo Jian's mobile phone, and hurriedly said to Mrs. Gao: "Madam, the Metropolitan Governor also asked Xing'er to bring a treasure, and Xing'er will show it to Madame and the generals." ”

As he spoke, he took out a tightly wrapped bag from his arms, opened it to reveal the mobile phone inside, hit the power button, and suddenly sounded a pleasant boot ringtone.

Xing'er put the phone on the table, put the phone down against the package, and silently recited the operation steps taught by Luo Jian in her heart, and finally found the video.

"This thing is not loud, please come close and watch." After Xing'er finished speaking, she clicked on the video.

Mrs. Gao and the generals were stunned as they watched the picture of Luo Jian and the sound of his voice coming out of his mobile phone, and they were all stunned.

Xing'er saw that everyone was sluggish, and did not listen carefully to what the Metropolitan Governor said, so she hurriedly stepped forward to play it again, and everyone listened attentively to the words of the person in the painting.

"Mrs. Gao, generals, I am Luo Jian, the governor of Huaiyang, I already know about the death of Emperor Gao of Dashun, and I hope that Mrs. Gao and the generals will mourn and change. The past is gone, and now China is facing an unprecedented crisis, and the Manchu Qing invaded China, robbed our property, and slaughtered our people, and its intention to enslave our China has been clearly revealed. ”

The hall was so quiet that even a pin could be heard, and although the sound of the mobile phone was not loud, everyone could hear it clearly.

Therefore, Luo Jian believes that all the sons and daughters of China must abandon their past suspicions and work together to resist foreign aggression. Now that Emperor Gao of Dashun has passed away, Luo Jian hopes that Mrs. Gao will take the initiative to take the burden and integrate the rest of the Dashun army as soon as possible. ”

When Mrs. Gao heard this, the sadness on her face disappeared slightly, revealing her previous resolute look.

"I and Huaiyang Governor Shi Kefa have a letter to Hunan Governor He Tengjiao, if you have the heart to fight with the Manchu Tartars to the end, we will arrange for Mr. Lu Wei to contact him, so that he can ensure that you and other military salaries, grain and grass, and when Yangzhou has spare strength in the future, we will also help your ministry as much as possible."

Luo Jian's words finally reached the hearts of the generals, and everyone discussed how to return to the Ming Dynasty, but how to contact the imperial court, it was the time when they were thinking hard, and when they heard this, everyone seemed to be relieved.

"Mrs. Gao is the queen of Dashun, it is not appropriate to personally lead the troops, my opinion is that the Eastern Route Army should currently take Zehou Tian Jianxiu as the leader of the army, and all the generals such as Yihou Zhang Nai, Mianhou Yuan Zongdi, Cihou Liu Fangliang, Guangshan Bo Liu Tichun, Taiping Bo Wu Ruyi, generals Hao Shaoqi, Wang Jincai, Niu Wancai, etc., should take care of the general situation and understand the overall situation.

Hearing this, all the generals were shocked, wondering how the Metropolitan Governor knew everything about the Dashun Army thousands of miles away, and how he pointed out the incumbent generals well.

Everyone looked up at Zehou Tian Jianxiu, and Tian Jianxiu was also hesitant.

"If you still have any concerns, you can consult Mr. Lu Weilu in detail, and finally Luo Jian wishes that the Dashun army will get out of the predicament as soon as possible and become a backbone force to resist the Manchu invasion."

The video ended here, and Mrs. Gao and the others were still staring at their phones blankly, all of them silent, obviously not sobering up from the shock.

Xing'er stepped forward again and played the video of the superintendent Shi Kefa to everyone, what Shi Kefa said was much more difficult to understand than Luo Jian's words, and everyone could hear it in a fog, but the meaning of asking everyone to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country was still understood.

After watching the two videos, it was only after a while that Tian Jianxiu said, "Why don't you ask Mr. Lu and Miss Xing'er to go down and rest for the time being, and then tell the two of you after I have discussed?" ”

After Lu Wei and Xing'er went down to rest, Tian Jianxiu said to Mrs. Gao: "It seems that this Huaiyang Metropolitan Governor descended from the sky, otherwise how could there be such a magical thing, and the portraits and voices of thousands of miles away were transmitted?" ”

"I think what this Metropolitan Governor said is very reasonable, it is only beneficial to my Dashun army and not harmful, how about I listen to it?" Mianhou Yuan Zongdi's seniority in the army is second only to Tian Jianxiu, and he thought for a while and said.

When everyone heard this, they nodded yes, everyone you and I have finished the discussion, and finally agreed with Yuan Zongdi's opinion, but no one took the initiative to speak up who was the leader in the army.

"Who will be sent to Changsha with this Mr. Lu?" Mrs. Gao didn't have much opinion, but seeing that everyone's opinions were basically unified, she asked.

The generals were silent for a long time before the righteous marquis Zhang Nai spoke: "The last general is willing to accompany this Mr. Lu and his party in Changsha." ”

Yihou Zhang Nai has been following Li Zicheng's side, since Li Zicheng was killed, he thought that he had not protected the emperor, and felt guilty every day, and now he saw that the queen wanted to send someone to Changsha, and after thinking about it, he took the initiative to stand up.

Lu Wei, who got the news, took Zhang Nai to Changsha the next day.
