Xie Simei clenched the steel knife and walked towards the next Houjin soldier.

Eat a trench and grow wise, with the lesson just now, Xie Simei is obviously a lot more cautious.

Slowly approaching this Houjin soldier, enduring psychological discomfort, he slashed down with a knife.

Laugh at!

Blood poured like a fountain on her armor.

Xie Simei lifted the steel knife, gasping for breath, and her body trembled involuntarily.

Syllable!

There was applause behind him.

She looked back and saw that the person who applauded was Yang Chengying.

"Kindness is reserved for one's own people, and coldness is for the enemy, and I hope you and all those present will always remember it."

Yang Chengying's face was dignified and glanced at everyone present.

"Yes." The soldiers responded in unison.

"Fourth sister, next." Yang Chengying shouted again.

"Yes, General."

Xie Simei held the knife in both hands and walked towards the next Houjin soldier.

This time, the action still looked rusty, but it didn't have the mud and water just now.

With a knife in hand, he took off the head of this Houjin soldier.

"Sisters, it's your turn!"

Xie Simei took off the head with a knife, held it in her hand, and shouted at the female soldier behind her:

"The general is right, you live and die on the battlefield. If we fall to the ground today, these slaves will not let us go. ”

The female soldiers looked at each other, drew their steel knives one after another, trembled, and walked towards the Houjin soldiers.

Watching these soldiers die one by one, Yang Chengying felt uncomfortable.

It's not that it's compassion, it's that these soldiers are the elite of a hundred battles, and it's a pity to lose them.

But depending on the condition of their injuries, in fact, dying like this is the best outcome.

Otherwise, Nurhachi would not have given up these bannermen easily.

After all, there are very few female soldiers, and if you cut it like this, you won't be able to cut it all in a day.

Yang Chengying waved his big hand, and Shang Kexi and Peng Qigu's subordinates who were brought out of the city went into battle one after another, and their hands rose and fell, killing the enemy quickly and obtaining the first rank.

Leave Geng Zhongming and others to protect the female soldiers and prevent a situation similar to the one that almost killed Xie Simei just now.

Xu Guangqi and the others stood on the city tower, watching all this happen from a distance.

I'm used to killing people, but it's the first time I've seen a female soldier kill someone.

Alvarez drew a cross on his chest, "Lord, what have I seen!" ”

Hearing this, Xu Guangqi frowned slightly, a little uncomfortable.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, he silently walked down the city tower.

Only Sun Yuanhua noticed the teacher's departure, but he didn't follow this time.

Sometimes, it is necessary to give the teacher some time to think quietly.

An hour later, the killing ended.

A total of 330 bannermen and 1,300 cannon fodder soldiers were obtained.

More than 600 people died with the soldiers, but they were not beheaded, but were killed and prepared for burial.

Xie Simei came to Yang Chengying and hugged her fists and said:

"General, it's all over."

As the commander of the female soldiers, Xie Simei is obviously different from before.

The second step to the battlefield has been completed.

"Good work!"

Yang Chengying nodded and said with relief: "Madame has prepared bath water for you, go wash it." ”

"Yes."

Xie Simei ordered the female soldiers to return to the team and left here in order.

After a while.

"General, what's next?"

Shang Kexi counted the heads again, and the soldiers buried all the corpses, and the work of cleaning up the battlefield was basically completed.

"Geng Zhongming!"

Yang Chengying ordered: "You send these heads to your younger brother Geng Zhongyu, and let him go to the capital for a long time." ”

"Yes."

Geng Zhongming took the order and asked his subordinates to leave with these sorted out heads.

"The rest of the brothers will follow me back to the city and hold a celebration feast!"

"Okay."

Shang Kexi and Peng Qigu collected their respective commands and returned to the city with Yang Chengying.

At night, the moonlight is like silver.

Sun Yuanhua came to visit his mentor Xu Guangqi.

During the day, on the tower of the city, I saw the teacher leaving silently. The celebration banquet held just now has not seen the teacher.

As soon as the banquet was over, Sun Yuanhua went to the teacher's residence.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the teacher's servant packing up.

"Teacher...... Where are you going? Sun Yuanhua was a little surprised.

"I'm leaving." Xu Guangqi said.

"Teacher leaving? Going to the capital? ”

"That's right, the purpose of this trip is basically accomplished, and it seems inappropriate to stay any longer."

"Teacher ......"

"You listen to me when I'm done."

"Yes."

Sun Yuanhua lowered his head in fear.

Xu Guangqi looked at his tall feet with a kind face, and said with a smile: "As a teacher, I originally wanted to help Fang Xun control Jinzhou, but this purpose was naturally not achieved.

For me, this is a betrayal of the court's trust in me. ”

With that, he let out a long sigh.

Sun Yuanhua knew that his mentor had repeatedly disagreed with important ministers of the imperial court, and it seemed that he had low emotional intelligence. In fact, he has a patriotic heart, so he can't get used to some of the practices of those important ministers.

"Personally, though, it's been very rewarding."

Xu Guangqi changed his words: "The original nine volumes of geometry have been translated, and the complete book of agricultural administration has also been revised. ”

As he spoke, Xu Guangqi came to a neatly arranged stack of books.

"These books are left for you and Yang Chengying, I hope they will be useful to you."

Xu Guangqi patted the book gently, looking very reluctant.

"Teacher, disciple, thank you for your kindness."

Sun Yuanhua immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Guangqi.

He knew that these books were all collected by his teacher over the years, including a large number of books for practical use, as well as some books from the West.

This part of the books from the West has the content left by Matteo Ricci in the middle.

It's a pity that several times the court asked for publication, but they were like mud cows into the sea.

"Get up."

Xu Guangqi picked up his disciple: "Parting is imminent, I have a few words to tell you." ”

"Please be instructed by the teacher." Sun Yuanhua lowered his head.

"Your talent is not in military formations, but in firearms. In the future, you must not worry about war. Xu Guangqi admonished.

"The disciple wrote it down."

"Second, Yang Chengying's heart is not bad, sometimes he is too impatient, you have to correct it bluntly."

"The disciple also wrote it down."

"You don't want to go to the capital to serve, that place is not suitable for you, just stay under Yang Chengying honestly. I have a hunch that this person has no limit in the future. ”

"Yes, the disciple remembers the teachings of the teacher."

The master and apprentice chatted and came to the courtyard.

Looking up, a bright moon hung in the sky.

The master and apprentice thought of the sentence in a poem:

People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles.

The next day, early in the morning.

Xu Guangqi set off for Beijing.

Yang Chengying led the generals of Zhenyucheng to see him off.

"Old Xu, you have offended a lot before, you won't mind."

Yang Chengying said with a smile.

"If you mind, my old bones will fall apart."

Xu Guangqi also had a rare sense of humor.

Fang Zhenru clenched his fists and said: "The matter here is all up to Xu Shilang to explain. ”

Xu Guangqi clasped his fists and returned the salute: "Don't worry, I will play tomorrow and ask for merit for the ranking soldiers." ”

The hour has come.

Xu Guangqi glanced at everyone's faces, and suddenly felt a feeling in his heart. I have passed the age of sixty, and I can only resign myself to fate for how long I will have in the future.

can experience this scene for the rest of my life, and I have no regrets in this life.

After reading it, Xu Guangqi slowly boarded the carriage and left Zhenyu City.

Yang Chengying led everyone to wave goodbye.

Only Sun Yuanhua knelt down.
