Thousands of miles away, on the banks of the Muli River in southern Sichuan, a battle was also coming to an end, and countless green battalion soldiers in their first coats fell on the bank of the river, blood stained the river and grass red, and the smoke of gunpowder was dissipating into the air.

After capturing Kunming, Long Xiang's army entered Yunnan, and then chased Guo Ying, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, to the north and went straight to Sichuan. Guo Ying retreated to Xichang County, and gathered an army of 10,000 people with the general army of Jianchang Town to defend the city. Zhang Hanwan pretended to retreat, but under the guidance of the Tibetans in Muli, he visited all Tibetans, recruited troops and attracted business, and the army dispersed, so that Guo Ying thought that he had an opportunity to take advantage of. 【1】

Guo Ying and Jianchang Town joined forces with 4,000 troops, wanting to sneak attack the Muli Department and destroy the tribe that had the closest collusion with the British and Chinese army, so as to kill chickens and monkeys and suppress the Kham Tibetans in southern Sichuan. But he didn't want to encounter a joint ambush by the Longxiang army and the Muli tribe on the bank of the Muli River, and the 4,000 soldiers and horses were almost wiped out, and the leading Jianchang general army fled in a hurry with hundreds of remnants.

"Is that Gongga Snow Mountain? It's so high, isn't it like this when Xingtian crashed into Buzhou Mountain? ”

"The snow-capped mountains in Tibet are higher and more dangerous than this, and the King of Heaven said that the place where Tibet and Tianzhu meet is the roof of the world!"

Defeating a few thousand enemy troops was not a glorious victory for the Long Xiang army. Before the smoke cleared, the officers and men of the Longxiang Army in red clothes and blue pants had already dispersed in formation and gathered together to chat.

Looking to the northwest, a snow-capped mountain towers in the distance of the sky, seemingly inserted into the zenith, feasting the eyes of these Cantonese gentlemen. The officers who had studied geography had the opportunity to show off their knowledge, and while making presentations, they also paid attention to the messy battlefield.

Thousands of Kham Tibetans were clearing the battlefield, and the horses, gongs and drums, waist knives, shotguns, and other relics of the officers and men of the Green Battalion had become their trophies. These people, both men and women, were like the whole clan going out together. And what made the officers frequently raise their goals was a slender Kham Tibetan woman, holding a Yongli-style musket in her hand, and the young general who was so shy that she scratched her head from time to time was Zhang Hanwan, the commander of the Longxiang Army.

"Do you just want to occupy Xichang? Not thinking about entering Tibet? If you want to enter Tibet, you have to occupy the archery furnace in the north! ”

Although the Tibetan woman can speak Chinese, her accent is still a little weird, and she speaks crisply, and is pushed by a long force in her throat, just like a yellow warbler singing willows, and Zhang Hanwan is very comfortable to hear. It's no wonder that this girl named Dawa Yangjin is the leading Tibetan girl who danced together with the three clans of Xiaojin Mingchi in Guangzhou before, and her speech is as refreshing as singing.

"We ...... Why do you want to go into Tibet? ”

Zhang Hanwan scratched his head again, he was already a little introverted, and he was pulled by this Kangba girl, and he was even more wooden. Although they have been guides all the way, from Guangdong to southern Sichuan, they are no longer familiar.

"Whether it is the Heavenly Khan, Kublai Khan, or the Ming Emperor and the Qing Emperor, whoever occupies the Central Plains, doesn't they all have to enter Tibet? We Tibetans and Han Chinese always have to get along with each other, and Tibetans always have to bow down to the Han people. For us, it is better to bow to the King of Heaven than to the Kangxi Emperor. When you enter Tibet, let the Dipas of Lasa bow their heads, and then seal the [***] and the Panchen Lama, and the Tibetans will bow their heads to you. ”

Dawa Yangjin's red lips kept turning, what kind of Tibetan Han people, bowing their heads back and forth, so that Zhang Hanwan didn't know how to answer for a while. It took him a long time to pick up the key point and correct the girl's erroneous cognition: "This is not a matter of Tibetans and Han people, and Kublai Khan and Kangxi are not Han people." The Heavenly King did say that all ethnic groups in China and one family from all over the world, but the matter of entering Tibet seems to be a little far away......"

Then he smiled and shook his head: "Dawa Yangjin, you can concentrate on singing, these things don't need to be done by a girl like you." ”

Dawa Yangjin took two quick steps, stopped in front of him, and snorted proudly: "Do you think I'm an ordinary singer?" ”

Zhang Hanwan almost bumped into the girl, took two steps back, his heart fluttered, and he didn't dare to look at this beautiful girl. The heart said that of course you are not an ordinary singer, you are still a music official in the Taile Temple of the Heavenly King's Mansion. Like those Kangba singers who are still in Guangzhou, they are all the private property of Gesang Dunzhu to the King of Heaven, and they should also be the concubines of the King of Heaven in the future.

Although he is introverted, he is not so shy. But this girl's identity is special, but her singing voice, appearance and surname make him excited, and there is a hidden torment in his heart, so he is very restrained about this girl. Since she is the concubine of the King of Heaven, she is the fourth sister-in-law, even if she is not public, if she talks about private affairs, he can't go beyond the slightest rule, and he can't even think about it.

But distracting thoughts often flashed in his heart, and the king of heaven ...... The fourth brother didn't know what to think, so he let this delicate girl be a guide. He traveled thousands of miles with our old men and participated in the battle in person. The fourth brother is really ruthless to women as always.

Dawa Yangjin didn't know what he wanted, and raised his head and said, "My full name is Dong-Dawa Yangjin!" Kelsang Tondrup still has to salute me. ”

Zhang Hanwan was stunned for a moment, not only does he have a surname, but he is also an ancient Tibetan surname!? Isn't that remarkable...... [2]

Dawa Yangjin seemed to be very satisfied with this effect, and grinned again: "The heads of Muli, Batang and Litang are all from our family, and my father is the head of Litang. ”

Zhang Hanwan realized: "So you want us to occupy the arrow furnace!?" ”

Dawa Yangjin nodded: "Yes, occupy the archery furnace, let us Kham Tibetans see your strength and understand your determination to enter Tibet, so that we will follow you against Emperor Kangxi, and you, a general, can be looked down upon by my father." ”

Zhang Hanwan is confused again, why do you want your father to take a fancy to me?

Dawa Yangjin's bright eyes flashed with a strange look: "Only when my father takes a look at you, you are qualified to propose to him." ”

Zhang Hanwan is dizzy, proposing?

Davayangjin said very seriously: "I like you very much, and you should also like me, I can see it very clearly from your eyes." ”

Zhang Hanwan was stunned: "I, I...... You, you, you're not the king...... The ...... of the Heavenly King"

Dawayangkin pouted: "He only thought that I was Maggie Ami in exchange for five muskets, so he didn't look at me directly, and said that I love to sing out of tune." Although he is a hero and a great khan, I am not a rare good man who does not understand me. ”

Zhang Hanwan felt a little prostration, is the Kham girl so straightforward, or is Dawa Yangjin himself this surname? Which man did she say it herself, and she wanted that man to attack the city and plunder the land for her?

Dawa Yangjin continued to crook the corners of his mouth: "You Han Jialang is just twisting like this, let's say, do you already have a favorite girl?" ”

Zhang Hanwan stiffened his face and changed the topic: "There should be a lot of blacksmiths in the archery furnace, and our bayonets and cuirass have to be repaired." ”

Dawa Yangjin rolled his eyes: "The arrow furnace is a Tibetan dialect, not a Han dialect!" Beat is silk, arrows are medicinal herbs, and furnace means market. You say, don't you like me!? ”

How don't you like it!? There are 10,000 people in the Long Xiang army, who doesn't like it? I can hear your singing every day, my feet are very energetic, I can still see your smile every day, and no matter how big the worries in my heart are, they will come to naught. can get your favor, I, Zhang Hanwan, a stuffy donkey, don't know if it is a blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes. can really marry you, Jia Hao, Wu Ya, and Yu Hanyi, Hu Hanshan, they are estimated to be envious to death!

Zhang Hanwan almost said this surging heart, but another thought was stopped by death, he is a member of the Heavenly Punishment Society, he is ready to die at any time, and his brother has already died in Huanggang Mountain, Shaozhou, why did he enjoy this blessing!?

Thinking to the east again, Zhang Hanwan was ashamed of his sudden heart, the king of heaven was in Hunan, about to face off with the Tartar Emperor, I heard that he had written a suicide note, ready to die in battle, but he was still thinking about his own selfishness.

Zhang Hanwan's face was gloomy, and he shook his head gloomily: "Dawa Yangjin, I still have very important things to do, and before that, I am not qualified to think about these things." ”

Turning his head and seeing his subordinates sneakily following behind, he stopped talking, and Zhang Hanwan confessed and left. Davayangjin was still shouting behind his back: "Then you just didn't think about it, but you didn't like me, did you!?" ”

There was a burst of low laughter and applause, and Zhang Hanwan's face suddenly turned crimson, this girl is really ...... It's so cute!

Looking at Zhang Hanwan's figure fleeing from the wilderness, Dawa Yangjin clenched his fists and said, "I'll take a fancy to you!" If you don't marry me, I'll find the king of heaven and say that you are bullying me! ”

The affair between Dawa Yangjin and Zhang Hanwan is just an example after Long Xiang's army entered southern Sichuan, the foreign scenery and foreign customs have caused the hearts of the two Guangxi men to shake in the hearts of Long Xiangjun, even if the military Sima who supervises military discipline is restricted, what should have happened has happened. When the Long Xiang army reunited under Xichang City, the hundreds of collector girls with their tails behind made Zhang Hanwan jump like thunder, and at the same time had a headache.

At the same time, in the mountains of Xiangxi, Jia Hao was facing a more urgent situation than Zhang Hanwan.

The Yulin army captured Zunyi, and then waved a shot to the north, causing Yinzhen to rush to Chongqing City, and then transferred troops into Xiangxi, where the Miao people and Tumin (Tujia) gathered together.

As early as when he was in Guizhou, Jia Hao was already in trouble. The army marched in the territory of Phoenix in Xiangxi, and there were local natives to guide the way, and the footsteps were very fast, but on the side of the marching army, there was a group of Luoyi people closely following. There are men and women in this group of Luo Luo, tall figures, deep eyes and high noses, and dark complexion, which do not look like the Central Plains. Among them, there are many women with flowers, and there is a colorful woman riding a horse, led by two women, and a man holding a big umbrella, just sticking to Jia Hao, who is riding a horse slowly. 【3】

"Commander, I think you should accept the queen of the people, and call the men in their clan, there are also hundreds of strong men, and our Baicheng camp is lacking such tall men as grenadiers."

Peng Shihan, the commander of the Baicheng Battalion, was talking beside Jia Hao, and he didn't know if he was joking or serious, so angry that Jia Hao glared at him angrily, "I'll accept someone!?" That's someone recruiting me, right!? Still a widow, you and I Jia Hao can't find a woman or what!? ”

Meng Songjiang, the commander of the Cangwu battalion, said with a smile: "What's wrong with the widow?" I inquired, and the queen was only seventeen years old. Although it is a little darker, it looks really Zhou Zheng, and he has a mouthful of white teeth when he laughs...... Ouch! ”

Before he finished speaking, Jia Hao whipped his mount's buttocks, and immediately scared him away with his horse.
