Hongyi received the holy decree as he wished, and arranged for a little eunuch to take his name and rush to Nantang first, and asked Tang Ruowang to go to Xi'an Gate to make peace with him, and then rushed to Xihuamen with two attendants.

"Quick! Fast! Sitting on the shoulder that was high and low, listening to the wheezing sound of the sedan chair man under him, Hongyi still couldn't help urging over and over again. On weekdays, this Lord Belle is extremely concerned about his subordinates, and today he has the opportunity to "serve", and the four palanquin bearers also have enough strength to run in small steps. If it weren't for the fact that they were still in the Ouchi Palace, they couldn't be too reckless, and these brothers would have run wild!

Hongyi inadvertently looked back, only to find that in addition to a low-end little eunuch called "Sanxi", Liang Gong, Mara, Park, and Sun, who were used as arms every day, had already been sent away by themselves, and he seemed lonely at the moment. Alas! When the manpower is used, it is really never enough! Mara went to Liulichang and didn't come back, Liang Gong went to the Imperial Servant Bureau to transfer people, and Sun's and Park's families went to Jingren Palace one after another, so they had to go into battle in person!

Just thinking about it, I have arrived at Xihua Gate. Sanxi trembled and took out the waist card and lit up, and the military academy guarding the gate was naturally released. I saw Lord Bellor's sedan chair trotting all the way over, he must have been in a hurry, and who dared to obstruct it at this time?

As soon as he left the palace gate, Hongyi urged: "Brothers, work hard, go to Xi'an Gate quickly!" ”

"Huh~" The sedan chair drivers shouted in unison, and immediately prepared to speed up.

"Lord, Lord! Mara's guards are back! The sharp-eyed Sanxi pointed to the front and shouted excitedly. This Sanxi's surname is Wang, and he has only been in the palace for three years, and he was originally doing some chores in Cining Palace, but only because he was honest and honest, he was transferred to the East Second Institute by Su Mala. In the past, he only followed Liang Gong and ran around, without any major battles. When I see Mara now, it's like a lifesaver.

Hongyi looked in the direction of Sanxi's finger, and sure enough, it was Mara who was flying fast and rushing towards him.

"Good! Mara, it's just in time for you to return! Hongyi was overjoyed and couldn't help shouting.

"Master! I am back! I've got something urgent to report! Alas? What are you ......" Mara's face was anxious, and she was about to report all the changes that happened this morning, but she also noticed that Lord Belle was more anxious than herself, and hurriedly asked.

"Don't talk yet, I'm more anxious here. Hurry up to Xi'an Gate! Hongyi resolutely stopped it, and if he was late, he was afraid that something really big would happen.

"Huh!" Mara didn't say more, raised her feet and ran to the front of her shoulder, took out the waist card of the imperial guard and hung it in a conspicuous position on her waist, pressed the waist knife with her left hand, suddenly showed her majesty, and shouted "Go!" ", and guided the small sedan chair to the west.

Bekotov was inside the Xi'an Gate at the moment, his face covered in blood, and his four of his men, who were also wounded, were surrounded by twenty or thirty guards with guns and knives. On the periphery, more than a hundred Russians and Cossacks with muskets surrounded the twenty or thirty Bogda soldiers in the middle, and were in a stalemate. The Russian and Manchu on both sides shouted into a pot of porridge, and the Russian interpreter jumped up and down like an ant in a hurry, but he didn't have time to translate the foul language on both sides one by one. Outside, there are more Bogda people, just like watching a circus, pointing and commenting!

Mr. "Buick" clenched his fists, his left hand protected his face, his right hand was placed under his chin, his elbows tightened his upper body, ready to go, the standard European street fight preparation posture, although there was a very calm performance, in fact, the heart was really very annoyed, it can be said that it was regretful!

Originally, since Mulan was in the limelight in the martial arts arena, he followed up with His Royal Highness the Little Prince to conduct a few live firing around the imperial capital, which shocked those Bogda soldiers who were used to using bows and crossbows and arrows, and they were very majestic. And the little guy who saved his life was true to his word, and soon really named this team of 300 people, called "Rakshasa Team", and it was attributed to the yellow flag, and he also officially occupied the position of a captain of "Wrapping Clothes and Collars".

Later, I heard from the little eunuch in the gatehouse of the firearms camp that this yellow flag was a Praetorian Guard personally commanded by Emperor Bogda of the Qing Dynasty! And his own coat and collar is from the fourth grade, which is equivalent to the prefect's level! Later, I cautiously asked - what is the prefect? The little eunuch pursed his lips, looked down on himself a little, and said for a long time, that is a local magistrate, in charge of several county towns and a large area!

How many towns? Oh, so to speak, he, a Moscow thug back then, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling all kinds of things, was just a squad leader of an expedition under the Tsar, not even a serious official, but now he has become a high-ranking official equivalent to the size of a "governor" under the Bogda emperor! haha！ It's worth it! Oh, by the way, that's not a tsar at all, didn't His Royal Highness the prince say that day, he should call himself "Grand Duke Alexei I" of the Rakshasa Kingdom, haha!

Maybe it's just a little carried away, it's Thursday, October 7, 1655, and it's still early before "Sunday", but the few guys who followed their wise decision to become the Daqing Xiao Riding School had to go to the chapel to step on it, so that they could take their brothers to pray to the Father for eternal prosperity in a foreign land.

It's all to blame for the five little leaders, especially that Anton, who hasn't studied Manchurian well for two or three months, but has a hot temper! It's really worthy of the meaning of your name "into battle"! The soldiers of Xi'anmen are also too deceitful, we honestly took out those waist cards, and we just didn't let them out of the city! I asked the interpreter to explain several times, saying that we came from Jingshan, and we couldn't pass through the palace of Emperor Bixia, so we could only go south to Nantang through Xi'an Gate. But the leading officer just won't be accommodating!

Anton's temper came up, and he shouted something in Russian: "Our captain, Your Excellency, is a senior official from the fourth rank, what kind of thing are you!" The translator came back and said that what kind of "city gate captain[1]" that officer was, and he was actually from the rank of the fourth grade! Oh, the Father is above, and weishenme his official position is also so great?

Damn Anton, he actually said that a guy guarding the city gate would dare to say that he was the governor? Then he went up and grabbed someone's neck, and a fight that lasted more than an hour began......

The city gate captain saw that he was also a practitioner, and he actually used his left hand to pass under Anton's right arm in an instant, grabbed his left wrist, and took a small half step back, twisting his body slightly to the left, and then Anton couldn't stand steadily, and his hand also unloaded. But the right hand of the Baghdad warrior suddenly appeared in front of Anton's chest and smashed Anton's left elbow joint with his right elbow!

Oh God, you weishenme give this seemingly skinny guy so much strength! At that time, a clear "click" was heard, and Anton's right arm was estimated to be fractured, at least dislocated! But the city gate captain was not finished yet, and he took advantage of the situation to hit Anton's chin with his right elbow! Poor Anton was bleeding like a ghost crying wolf in an instant, and he was defeated.

The other three of his subordinates, Nikolai, Sergei and Yuri, did not even hear their loud shouts, and actually went up to beat the officer who was also from the fourth grade, which was to make trouble for themselves. At the same time that they knocked the officer to the ground with skillful boxing routines, the guards around them had already swarmed up. The gang fight has begun!

Fortunately, these expedition members under his command all have some fighting skills, and neither side has real weapons with real knives and guns, otherwise under the unique blows of these Bogda soldiers who kicked and fell, they would not have been able to hold out for long.

By the way, the smartest Ivan who took advantage of the chaos to "escape", fortunately you didn't plan to run back to Moscow just like that, but went to the firearms battalion and found help, God forbid! Hopefully, as your name suggests, that you are "cherished by God"!

I hope this group of Bogda soldiers didn't know that the hundred or so people who came in a hurry on the periphery had no ammunition in their muskets! At this moment, a musket without lead pellets and gunpowder is at best an iron rod that is very uncomfortable! It's not as good as the opponent's broadsword and spear!

Alas! Cunning Bogda! When they knew that we were not having much ammunition left when we were captured, they simply collected all our gunpowder pellets in the name of research, and even took away a hundred of our guns! It is said that it was still the idea of His Royal Highness the little prince! The words he brought over were that there is no gunpowder projectile to ensure your net worth and life! Well, you saved my life, gave me glory and wealth, and I will also become your servant, then I will listen to you in everything!

But today, you must not let me "reimburse" here!

"Rakshasa descends! Do you know that a capital crime was committed today! You dare to set troops into trouble in the imperial city, no matter if you are from the fourth grade or the fifth grade or the sixth grade, you will take care of you today! The city gate captain opposite Bekotov covered a pair of black corns, but he didn't bother to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, and shouted loudly.

"You, turn it over to him!" This is said for the general interpreter.

"No, Your Excellency, I understand. Allow me to repeat, we do not mean to offend you, but we are going to the South Hall to pray, passing by your camp. But who knew that you took the lead in beating my subordinate, poor Mr. Anton, to a broken bone, which is why it caused a conflict...... "Bekotov is a person with a heart, since he became Hongyi's clothed minion, after a few months, the basic conversation of Manchu can be regarded as barely passing.

Why is it so effective? That's because the Manchu script was born from the Mongolian script, and later generations identified it as belonging to the Manchu branch of the Manchu-Tungusic language family of the Altaic language family. In other words, Manchu is a vertically written pinyin script based on the Mongolian script. Since it is a pinyin script, it is more acceptable to Europeans than Chinese characters.

Especially during the Shunzhi period, a large number of Chinese documents were translated into Manchu, which became an important bridge for cultural exchanges between China and the West at that time, and directly became one of the driving forces for the "Chinese tide" that triggered the great spread of Chinese culture in Europe during the same period (participate in the first volume of "Introduction to the Fuyou Temple"). According to the missionaries who came to China, Manchu was easy to learn because it was not only a pinyin script, but also "had methods and rules that a person could clearly see," making Manchu faster and better learned than Chinese. Someone even said with confidence: "Five or six years is enough for any energetic person to acquire haode knowledge and read all the Manchu books to benefit from it." [2]”

"You don't give me nonsense, if you pass through the door of the master, you have to listen to the master!" The gate captain was furious and interrupted Bekotov's explanation.

"Oh, Mr. Captain of the City Gate, since we are of the same rank, please be sure to pay attention to your politeness!" Mr. Buick behaved like a gentleman, preparing for a fight despite his body movements.

"Politeness? Do you Rakshasa soldiers know what politeness is? What a joke! haha！ I won't be polite to you! What can you do? haha！ When the city gate captain heard the word politeness, hahadaxiao got up, and the people around him who were watching the lively flag people also followed suit.

This kind of ridicule makes the hundred or so Rakshasas descend unclear, but in the case of confrontation, it is very easy to cause the next commotion. Bekotov was also very uncomfortable in his heart, but he couldn't have a seizure, after all, he was under the fence.

"I want to see your highest commander!" Bekotov shouted!

"Who wants to see me?" Far away from the circle, there was a very complacent shout, but it sounded close to Bekotov, full of energy!
