Khalid dodged the other man's gaze and ordered the staff officer to bring a war horse. "I'm going to ride this horse!" Yao Xi'er pointed to Khalid's war horse. Khalid was a little embarrassed. "I said this young lady, you're going too far!" The staff officer is gone. Khalid waved his hand to stop: "Since Miss wants to ride this horse, why not!" Miss please get on the horse? "The horse is so tall, how can you let me get on it!" Yao Xi'er deliberately said with disgust.

Khalid stretched out his hand to hug him, and suddenly felt inappropriate, and was stunned for a moment, and the surrounding generals knew that the young lady was deliberately making things difficult for the brigade commander, so they twisted their heads to the side and snickered. Khalid stretched out his hands in a hurry, Yao Xi'er stepped on his hands lightly, and his body was as light as a swallow and was sent to the back of the horse. At this time, the guard was emotional, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one picking up the maid and sending it to the horse, looking very rude, and the maid screamed in fright and her face turned red.

The guard glared at the maid fiercely, and at this time, Khalid took the reins of his horse and shook off the reins. When the surrounding generals saw such a scene, they were embarrassed to ride their horses again, and they jumped off their horses and walked on foot. Yao Xi'er rode on horseback, looked at the tall and burly Khalid in front of her, and began to be in a trance again. What's wrong with you, so unproductive. Yao Xi'er's face turned red again. But she just couldn't control herself, and kept staring at Khalid's back stupidly. Maybe she had never seen such a tall, burly man, maybe it was her unique and elegant temperament that fascinated her.

The maid who walked next to the young lady next to her saw this scene and was secretly anxious for the young lady. Usually the young lady is very arrogant, and there is an endless stream of big families in Rongcheng who come to propose marriage, and almost smash the door railing of Yao's mansion. But the young lady never thought about what was going on today. To say that the general in front of him is indeed a hero, the two are also compatible. But can the general of the family take a fancy to the young lady, and besides, does the person have a wife? The maid is really anxious for the young lady.

Rongcheng is in sight, and a beautiful river runs through the city, like a jade belt dancing. The troops were advancing, and suddenly a group of people came up on the post road in front of them, and when they looked closer, they saw this group of people, some with shovels in their hands, some with weapons in their hands, and some with clubs in their hands. The two sides met head-on, and each other stopped, and Khalid led the horse to the front. "It's my daddy! My daddy is here! Daddy! Daddy! Yao Xi'er shouted loudly on horseback.

An old man in his 50s, who was the leader of the crowd opposite, hurriedly ran up and knelt on the ground when he saw this scene: "Master Jun, please let my daughter go, I will give you as much silver as you need." "Daddy! You are mistaken, they are the Northern Expeditionary Army, and it was the Northern Expeditionary Army that saved me from the bandits. Then Xi'er told the story. Master Yao knelt on the ground again and said gratefully: "Thank you to the Northern Expeditionary Army for saving your life!" I thank my little girl! ”

Khalid stepped forward and said: "Old man, please get up, the contemptible person is the commander of the 1st Brigade of the 3rd Division of the Northern Expeditionary Bureau, Khaled." It is our duty to rescue your daughter. Master Yao once again expressed his gratitude. Everyone was shocked when they saw the mighty military appearance of the Northern Expeditionary Army. Arriving at Rongcheng, Khalid ordered his troops to camp outside the city, and a military council was immediately held. "Brothers, as the division commander expected before the expedition, he really found bandits, and it is the duty of our Northern Expeditionary Army to strangle bandits, and it is the duty of the Northern Expeditionary Army to occupy one side. A regimental leader! "Here!"

Khalid said majestically: "Tomorrow morning, you will lead two battalions to Xiajiang, and you must mercilessly eliminate the bandits and ensure the stability of the Xiajiang area." "It's a subordinate order!" "3 battalion commander!" "Here!" "Your troops stay in Rongcheng and vigorously suppress bandits while protecting the safety of Rongcheng!" "Yes! Subordinate Order! Then Leng Yifei ordered the logistics staff to go into the city to purchase goods.

In the afternoon of the same day, Yao's mansion was still in shock and palpitating. Mrs. Yao visited Xi'er's room, and when she saw her daughter in a stupid daze, she said, "Xi'er, you are scared, tomorrow I will ask someone to call you a soul." Thanks to the timely arrival of the Northern Expeditionary Army, it is really fortunate that such an army has not been seen since ancient times. The maid said, "Old woman, the young lady is not scared because she is thoughtful!" I fell in love with someone general! The old woman was startled when she heard this, and said: "How great is the Northern Expeditionary Army, people are the generals of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and they can't say that people look down on us, if they have a wife's room!" "I'm willing to be a child, I don't marry her. If she doesn't look down on me, I'll die in front of him. In this life, I identified him, and the person who was born was his ghost and died. Xi'er said decisively.

The old woman was stunned, she knew her daughter's temperament. 4 sons and one daughter, pampered and willful since childhood. This matter is not trivial, and the old woman immediately consults with the master. Who knew that Master Yao was overjoyed when he heard this: "Haha, it's really my daughter who has vision, if this general of the Northern Expeditionary Army is our uncle, it is unbelievable, even if it is worth being small." It just so happens that I am going to have a banquet for General Ha tonight, so I will probe his tone. ”

That night, Master Yao personally went to the barracks outside the city to invite Leng Yifei to the house as a guest, Leng Yifei shook the girl's hot eyes in front of him and was a little stunned. Khalid wanted to politely decline, but Master Yao was kind but couldn't refuse, so he had to go.

At the banquet, the male and female hosts, including the host's four sons, were seated, but Yao Xi'er was not seen, and Khalid suddenly relaxed. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Master Yao's sons said goodbye with interest. There were only three people left on the wine table, Yao and his wife, and Master Yao said casually: "Listen to the accent, General Ha is from the north" "Yes, I am from Zhili." The old woman worried: "You participated in the Northern Expeditionary Army, can the court let your family go?" ”

Thinking of the tragic death of his parents and siblings, Khalid was reluctant to recall the sad history and said: "I am an orphan, and my parents are long gone. When Master Yao heard this, he was secretly happy and said, "General Ha has a wife?" "I never had a wife!" "The old man has the courage to speak, the little girl Fangling is eighteen years old and has taken a fancy to General Ha, I don't know if General Ha is willing?" Khalid was stunned for a moment and groaned and said, "Jin Ge Iron Horse, fighting everywhere. I understand the affection of the young lady and the kindness of the second elder, and I don't want to be dragged down by the family. ”

At this time, Xi'er was eavesdropping on the screen next door, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but appear and said: "General He, the little girl is not talented, may I ask General Ha to be a monk in the war?" Khalid was stunned and said, "Miss, that's not what I meant!" "I can't look down on Miss Ben!" "No, Miss is naturally beautiful and I don't deserve it!" Khalid was a little confused and incoherent. "When it comes to this, if you don't agree, I won't have the face to live in the world, I will die for you!" Xi'er is resolute.

Khalid was a man with a temperament, and at this time a wave of blood rushed to his heart. I saw him kneeling on one leg and said: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, please accept the worship of my son-in-law, I promise that after overthrowing the Manchu court, I will definitely come back to marry a young lady." When Mr. and Mrs. Yao heard this, they were overjoyed and hurriedly came up to support Khalid. Xi'er didn't seem to be mentally prepared, and when she saw this scene, her expression suddenly changed dramatically, revealing her daughter's appearance, and she hurriedly ran out. "General Ha, you see that the little girl is shy."

Khalid returned to the barracks that night, still dizzy. Similarly, Xi'er is also excited and can't sleep, and for some reason she feels unsteady. The maid was sleeping outside, and when she heard the tossing and turning of the inside, the young lady got up and said, "Miss! General Ha agreed, what are you worried about? "Come here, help me figure it up!" After saying that, Xi'er also got up.

"He said that if he would marry me after overthrowing the Manchu Dynasty, if it doesn't work in ten or eight years, won't I become an old woman!" Xi'er analyzed. "That's it! Don't you want to wear it at home? How is this good?" the maid suddenly realized and agreed. "No, I'm going to go with him!" Xi'er is categorical. "Miss, how can the army bring women, and besides, the master will not agree!" Xi'er groaned and her eyes lit up and said, "I have an idea, we will ・・・・・・ like this tomorrow." ”

The next day, Khalid led the 2nd Regiment to continue its march northward, and early in the morning he came to the gate of the house of his father-in-law, Yao, to take his leave. Khalid didn't see Xi'er's figure left and right, and the Yao couple were in a hurry, and the people in the Kung Fu Mansion came to report that the young lady was not in the boudoir. When Master Yao heard this, he was even more anxious, and immediately ordered his subordinates to look for him in the house, but there was still no trace. The troops had already departed, and Khalid could not wait any longer, so he had to say goodbye to his father-in-law and mother-in-law. But he had some tears in his heart, where did Xi'er go? Maybe embarrassed in front of everyone, why don't you make a special trip to see you off outside the city?

Khalid was puzzled, and he could only explain Xi'er's mysterious whereabouts in this way. However, when he came to the outside of the city, he did not see Xi'er, and Khalid was even more confused. Last night, Xi'er's resolute demeanor shook in front of her eyes, and while she was moved, she didn't make him feel a concern. Xi'er should see her off anyway, why the hell is that? The subordinates saw that the brigade commander was uneasy and comforted: "Brigade commander, you don't have to worry, Miss Yao is different, maybe she doesn't want to see you, it's difficult to bear the pain of parting!" ”

Khalid didn't want his subordinates to know that he was worried about a girl, but he couldn't explain it. I had to use my legs hard, and the war horse rushed forward. In fact, Khalid, including the Yao couple, never expected Xi'er to be so bold and make an incredible move. Early in the morning, Xi'er and the maid disguised themselves as men, and then they hired a carriage to quietly go out of the city. Xi'er was skeptical of Khalid's promise, and the key was that the overthrow of the Manchu court would not take until the Year of the Monkey.

Therefore, Xi'er's family boldly decided to run away from home without permission and follow her sweetheart to fight everywhere. She knew that she would not be able to tell her parents, so Xi'er left a letter in the boudoir. As for whether Khalid agrees or not, it doesn't matter, the main thing is that she has to act and create a fait accompli. At dusk, the troops arrived at Binh Duong, which was about 50 kilometers from Rongcheng. Binh Duong is a small market town, and the roads are lined with onlookers.

As Khalid himself said, with a little effort comes an extra worry. He didn't say much throughout the day, and in order not to let his subordinates see what was going on in his mind, Khalid tried to keep a straight face. Suddenly, two handsome juniors flashed out of the crowd on the side of the road and stopped the horses, and the guards were startled and immediately pulled out their pistols and pointed them at the two. Khalid looked very calm, reined in his horse and said, "Young man! What are you going to do, there is no grievance? Don't worry, tell your grievances, the Northern Expeditionary Army will call the shots for you. "It was Xi'er and the maid in disguise who stopped the war horse.

Khalid didn't recognize the other, but felt that one of them was somewhat familiar. "General, I have a grievance with you!" After Xi'er finished speaking, she took off her headscarf to reveal her hair, and her daughter's appearance was fully revealed. Khalid was taken aback and hurriedly jumped off his horse and said, "Nonsense, why did you run so far to see you off?" The family can't see you, and I don't know what to do in a hurry! "There is no need for my family to worry, I have already left a letter. But I want to ask you, if the Manchu government were overthrown in 20 years, would I not be an old woman by then? ”

"This!" Khalid didn't know how to answer, and for some reason he would be clumsy in the face of a sharp-toothed Xi'er. "If you let me wait for you, it is better to go with you to fight in all directions. In the past, Hua Mulan joined the army, and now Yao Xier is on the battlefield, whether you agree or not, I will follow you! "Xi'er has a heartbeat. Khalid ・・・・・・. Perhaps out of desperation, Yao Xier and the maid became the first batch of female soldiers in the Northern Expeditionary Army. With a precedent, it was impossible to lose the car, so far the army began to accept female soldiers. The presence of female soldiers in the army not only increased the vitality of the troops, but also played a great role in promoting the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the troops.
