"But you're the emperor!" Zhou Yingluo instinctively stopped.

"Tian Shouxin, go find some medicine and help Sakuraku deal with the injury on her hand." Chongzhen shouted loudly.

Tian Shouxin hurried out when he heard this.

At this time, he knew what he should do, he drove all the chamberlains out of the house, and at the same time instructed the brocade guards to be on guard outside the house.

Chongzhen looked at the old kitchen and regretted his decision a little. Although I know how to stir-fry, I can't buy chili peppers in this era, and many good dishes can't be cooked.

However, fortunately, Tian Shouxin uses the highest specifications to supply Zhou Yingluo's daily life, with peppercorns, green onions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar and other condiments readily available.

Although this wood-burning stove is not as comfortable to use as a gas stove, the fire is also okay.

Chongzhen silently reminisced for a while, rolled up his sleeves, and began the good time of cooking for the first time since he crossed over.

Chongzhen turned the spoon, Zhou Ying fell and added firewood, and the atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous.

I don't know if it's smoky, or if I think of my parents and brothers, or if I'm moved by this family-like atmosphere, Zhou Yingluo couldn't help but cry.

When Chongzhen saw it, he hurriedly said: "It's finished immediately, no need to add firewood, the smoke is too big, you can take a few steps back." ”

After two quarters of an hour's work, four side dishes came out of the pot, and two people and four plates arrived at the table.

"Oh, it's really comfortable to eat without anyone watching." Chongzhen sighed.

Zhou Yingluo pursed her lips and said, "The world envies the royal family's brocade clothes and food, and the servants are like clouds, but the emperor thinks this is good." ”

"You still don't understand, when you enter the palace for a long time, you will know how awkward it is." Chongzhen said softly, and at the same time sandwiched a salt-and-pepper pork rib for Zhou Yingluo.

Zhou Yingluo was also nowhere to be seen, picked it up and put it in her mouth, a taste stimulation that she had never had before, impacting her taste buds.

"This ...... Are all the imperial meals so delicious? ”

"This is not an imperial meal, for now, this dish is only made by me." Chongzhen pretended to be mysterious and said.

"I don't believe it......" Zhou Yingluo pouted, stopped talking, and began to feast.

After a long time, Chongzhen looked at the mess of cups and plates on the table, and sighed in his heart, this girl can really eat!

Zhou Yingluo leaned slightly on the back of the dining chair, her face was full of happiness, and she had a long aftertaste, and suddenly, she sat up suddenly, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, you just said that you have been waiting for me to enter the palace for dinner for a long time, right...... What does it mean......"

Chongzhen smiled embarrassedly and stood up: "Tian Shouxin, go back to the palace!" ”

……

Fuzhou.

Zhang Huangyan took the roast rabbit leg handed over by the soldier, sniffed it gently, and said loudly: "Jiao Yuchang, your rabbit shoots accurately, and the roast is also very fragrant!" ”

"Haha, General Xie praised. Since I was a child, I have followed my father to hunt in Langya, hunting rabbits and roasting meat, all of which are housekeeping skills! Jiao Yuchang touched his head and said innocently.

Zhang Huangyan pointed to a row of hares not far away, and said happily: "Roast all those ones, let the brothers taste ......."

"Tick ......"

A shrill whistle came from afar.

When Zhang Huangyan heard this, he instantly stood up and shouted: "There is an enemy situation, prepare to fight!" ”

Needless to say, the sentry's alarm was a battle order, and the soldiers of the Fulong squad put down their food when they heard the sound, turned over their horses in three or five breaths, and began to line up skillfully.

"Tick...... Tick Tick Tick"

A long sound, followed by three rapid sounds, everyone was a little surprised when they heard it.

"Three thousand Jianyu cavalry is coming!" Zhang Huangyan shouted, "Blow the trumpet!" Head up the hill to the southwest! ”

The trumpeters marched first, galloping all the way up the mountain, blowing trumpets all the way.

The army marched in search of the trumpet, and the sentinels arranged around it were ordered to begin to look for the trumpet.

In the distance, Ban Zhifu was overjoyed when he heard the whistle and the sound of the trumpet.

He searched in Fuzhou for two days and two nights, but did not find the footprints of the Ming army, and yesterday suddenly received the news that Gaizhou had been raided, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

The cultivated fields in Fuzhou have been completely destroyed, and if the farmland in Gaizhou is destroyed by the Ming army again, there is no need for the Ming army to invade this winter, and the Jianlu himself will starve to death in the city.

It was he who quickly led his troops north, marched for a day and a night, and went straight to the farmland and the dense places of tunzi, hoping to find the main force of the Ming army.

Now, when he suddenly heard the trumpet of the Ming army, he immediately ordered an attack, and at the same time sent more than a dozen people south to contact the other three squads in an effort to achieve encirclement.

The sentry of the Ming army did not know that the Jianyu cavalry was just passing by, and hurriedly blew the warning bamboo whistle, not wanting to be self-defeating and exposing the team.

An encounter ensued.

Zhang Huangyan led the team to run up this sparsely wooded mountain, looked out from afar, and found that the sentries were not lost, so he was relieved.

Not far from the bottom of the mountain, a cavalry in leather armor rolled in like a pack of wolves.

"Damn, it's so tightly hidden, how can it be found!" Zhang Huangyan was annoyed.

But now is not the time to be angry, the captives will rush down the mountain at once, and they are too numerous to flee immediately, so they have to take advantage of the mountain to kill him first, hoping to frighten the enemy.

"Reload! Prepare grenades! ”

The Ming soldiers were unhurried, skillfully reloading the bullets, pulling out the grenade from their waists, opening the back cover, revealing the lead.

"Don't fight hard! First a rifle salvo, then a grenade, and then a rapid southward escape, first walking this dog army to have fun! Zhang Huangyan shouted loudly.

"Hahaha......" the soldier laughed when he heard this.

Zhang Huangyan deliberately said that the retreat to the south to avoid the war was a dog walk, in order to dispel the negative emotions of the soldiers.

Ban Zhifu galloped all the way, saw the Ming army going up the mountain, and knew that he had lost the opportunity, and at this time, he must be at a great disadvantage.

But the Ming army only had more than 500 people, and he was six times larger than the enemy, and if he couldn't eat this Ming army, he wouldn't want to live.

"Charge all of them, go up the mountain and kill all the dogs!" Ban Zhifu is also Han, so he doesn't call the Ming army a Han dog like the real captive.

"Kill ......"

The three thousand captives shouted together and charged quickly.

In the past three days, they have been galloping in the vast land, sleeping in the open air, and they have long complained, and now they see the Ming army of the team, just like a wolf pack has found a rabbit, and all they think about is how to hunt.

"Ready! Six hundred kills! Zhang Huangyan shouted.

Jianyu began to climb the mountain, and the Ming army raised their rifles one after another.

The number of enemies was several times greater than his own, and Zhang Huangyan was ready to attack first. Anyway, the rifle pulls the bolt very quickly, and before throwing the grenade, it should be able to shoot three rounds.

"Put!"

Bang bang bang......

More than 500 gunshots rang out in unison, and the bullets flew down the mountain at a speed invisible to the naked eye, taking advantage of the height difference, not only increasing the rate of fire, but also increasing the range.

When the rushing captives heard the gunshots, they hurriedly leaned over their horses to avoid the attack, and many of them escaped, but more than 100 people were still shot and fell off their horses.

"They shot together, Ming Dog didn't move, hurry, rush up and cut off their dog's head!" Ban Zhifu shouted happily.

The Ming army let go of a shot, and immediately quickly pulled the bolt, and the bullet case fell to the ground with a puff, and the bullet was reloaded.

Bang bang bang......

The gunfire rang out again, and the sab-wielding captives were taken aback, and most of them did not react, but still sat on horseback, and were suddenly beaten to the sidelines, and they were killed.

Ban Zhifu was shocked when he saw it, what's going on, the Ming army's bird gun not only has a long range, but it can also hit continuously!

Momentary of surprise, he shouted again, "Keep lunging, prepare your bow and arrow!" ”

Bang bang bang......

The gunshot rang out for the third time, and this time it really stunned the captives, "What's the situation, Ming Army, can you do magic?" ”

Three rounds of gunfire caused more than 500 casualties, which greatly shocked the group of captives, and each of them had a teammate around him who fell, and subconsciously slowed down the horse.

Zhang Huangyan was overjoyed when he saw it, "Quickly reload, two can be used!" Aim for two more rounds! ”

Due to technological limitations, rifles made by the Arms Bureau can only be loaded with three rounds at a time. Originally, he was going to put away his rifle at this time and prepare to use grenades, but the captives slowed down, and Zhang Huangyan naturally wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity.

The soldier knew that time was pressed and raced against time to reload.

Ban Zhifu saw that his men and horses were slowing down, and the Ming army also stopped firing their guns, and immediately guessed the real situation, and he was so angry that he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

"Don't stop, keep attacking!" Ban Zhifu hissed and yelled.

It's late!

Bang bang bang......

As soon as the captives struggled to raise the speed of their horses, the Ming army began the fourth round of shooting.

This time the distance was much closer, and although the Ming army shot a little hastily, the accuracy was still greatly increased, and more than 200 captives were dismounted.

"Put away your rifle and pull the lead to throw the bomb!" Zhang Huangyan shouted.

The captives were so good at riding that the speed of going up the hill exceeded Zhang Huangyan's expectations, and he decisively gave up the fifth volley and ordered the use of grenades.

Nearly 600 Ming troops moved in unison, quickly carried their rifles, pulled the lead and threw it far away.

Before it could explode, the second grenade had already appeared in his hand, waiting for the military order.

Where had this group of captives seen a grenade, and when they found that the Ming army threw a black stick seven or eight inches long, they didn't care, and let it fall on their side, just blindly rushing.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Hundreds of grenades rang out in unison, and the mountain seemed to shake slightly, and the mountain birds ten miles away were all frightened.

The smoke and dust were billowing on the mountainside, the smell of sulfur was strong, and the dead bodies of people and horses were everywhere, a human tragedy.

"What's going on, where did the Ming army get the dense artillery!" The captives exclaimed.

"Don't stop, keep rushing!"

Ban Zhifu shouted.

But no one rushed any more, and some of them took the lead and ran down the mountain, and everyone followed suit, and less than two thousand horsemen turned their horses down the mountain.

Ban Zhifu beheaded two people in a row, but to no avail, the captives bypassed him far away and fled down the mountain in a hurry.

"General, let's take advantage of the victory to pursue and destroy this group of Tartars!" Adjutant General Liu Hongsheng said loudly.

"Kill!" The soldiers shouted in unison.

"No!"

Just before the big victory, Zhang Huangyan was still calm, and he said loudly:

"There are still nearly 2,000 prisoners today, and we have limited ammunition in our hands, and even if we can annihilate this group of Tartars today, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties!

What's more, we must continue to destroy the farmland and villages of Jianjiao, and we must leave enough ammunition behind to return south before the heavy snowfall! ”

"But ......"

"No, but!" Zhang Huangyan interrupted Liu Hongsheng's words, "Remember our operational policy -- the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and disturbs us, and the enemy is tired and we fight, and annihilate the enemy's living force in the movement!"

"Brothers, the enemy advances and I retreat! Let's start walking the dog! ”

The Ming army received the order and quickly descended the mountain and galloped south.

Seeing the Ming army descending the mountain, Ban Zhifu beat his chest and shouted: "Minggou has no gunpowder, chase quickly!" ”

More than ten miles south of the battlefield, another 3,000 troops of Jianyu wandering in the mountains and forests heard the sound of artillery and knew that someone must have found the enemy, and a battle broke out, so they quickly searched for the sound and galloped away.

Zhang Huangyan said that the horses in the army were all the best war horses in Beijing, and their physical strength and speed were excellent, but during this time, they galloped all day long, and the horsepower loss was not light, and after two hours, they couldn't get rid of the enemy behind them.

Da Da Da ......

"General, there is the sound of horses' hooves ahead!" The soldier reported to Zhang Huangyan loudly!
