The end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 230 Horqin

The endless prairie stretches under the sky and is endless. The green grass is like grass, and the breeze is like a wave.

It's really like a blue sky with white clouds, and horses running under the white clouds. At this time, a team of about 5,000 fully armed soldiers and horses were galloping on the grassland.

Drive!

A big flag flutters in the wind, and a nirvana reborn phoenix is painted on the flag, which is about to take off in the blue sky.

"Conductor, where are we now? Where are we going?"

Zhang Yang turned around and smiled and said, "I don't know where this is, but according to the compass, this should be in the east. We just need to go straight east and go straight east.

"Haha, Horqin, I'm coming soon!"

Looking back on the past two years, Zhang Yang killed everywhere on the grassland, calling the Tatar people to move to the desert. In the past two years, Zhang Yang has captured more than 30,000 young Tatar women and killed more than 100,000 Tatar people. It is estimated that Zhang Yang himself does not know the details. Anyway, his hands are stained with the freshness of Tatar people. Blood.

As a result, Zhang Yang was also turned into a demon from hell by the Tataris. Whether they surrendered to Zhang Yang or hostile to Zhang Yang, there was only one end, and there was death. Zhang Yang did not take prisoners at all. It can be said that he messed up the whole western grassland. The Taters either moved north or turned east to the Manchus.

As a result, Zhang Yang was also praised by Liu Xia, and was directly promoted from Yangwu School to the level of Yangwei School. And his men have also been promoted at this time.

The deputy commander of Feng Xiangwei is Guo Min, the deputy captain of Liu Xia's personal guard. Guo Min can be said to be Liu Xia's confidant. Everyone who can enter the guard is Liu Xia's most loyal person, and the people of the guard are basically intermediate officials. The most officers sent from the guard brigade are mainly to act as Liu Xia's eyes, so that Liu Xia can better master the army. These people are loyal to Liu Xia and have good abilities. If they are promoted, they will definitely be promoted first.

Therefore, now the Guards Brigade, especially the Guards, are particularly popular. Many soldiers want to enter the Guards or even the Guards. Once they enter the Guards, if they stay in the Guards for a period of time, it is basically promising.

Guo Min looked at the young man around him, who was a little jealous, but was very powerful in both tactics and force. However, he also knew that Zhang Yang was Yu Mingjun's younger brother, and he was also the group of people who escaped from Yangzhou City with Liu Xia. He couldn't help but feel that Zhang Yang could do what he did today. Often.

"Conductor, what are we going to Horqin for?" Guo Min didn't know what Zhang Yang and others had done before in Yangzhou City, so Guo Min was curious and puzzled that Zhang Yang had always wanted to go to Horqin.

After listening, Zhang Yang turned his head and smiled and said, "Naturally there is something to do. It doesn't matter to tell you. When we were in Yangzhou before, we said that we wanted to grab the first beauty of the Qing Dynasty for the prince. Although it was just a joke at that time, this commander was serious, so I went to Horqin. I heard that the big Yuer was the first beauty of the Qing Dynasty.

"Da Yuer?" Guo Min was confused for a while and then understood who Zhang Yang was talking about, so he said, "Even if we want to rob Da Yuer, we are not going to Horqin!" You should know that the big jade is in the palace!" In the face of Guo Min's reminder, Zhang Yang was not disappointed, but said with a smile, "Of course I know that Da Yuer is in the palace, but it is a little difficult to break through the palace of the Ta's, so I think that since Kerqin can give birth to such a beautiful woman as Da Yuer, there must be many be many beauties. Now I can't catch Da Yu. The son first attacked her clan and sent it to the prince to relieve his sthie. When he broke through the palace of the Tas, he tied up the big jade and sent it to the prince.

"O, I see. After listening to the conductor, I also want to see the beauty of the Horqin woman!"

"Hahaha, maybe we can meet the big Yuer out of the palace, and then cut it off. This is better, and there is no need to run to Horqin. That's too far away."

After a few hours, everyone was obviously a little tired, so Zhang Yang asked all the soldiers to disate and rest. It was not too early to look at the sky, so Zhang Yang said, "Camp on the spot! Burn the fire and cook, and leave tomorrow!"

After Zhang Yang said, the soldiers who had been riding the horse for a day suddenly screamed happily.

Luoyang City, at this time, Luoyang City has become more prosperous. Not only are there many merchants in the city, but there are many people. Even outside the city, houses are gradually built. The whole area around Luoyang City is full of people. People who come to Luoyang for the first time think that the outside of the city is inside of the city! It can be thought of its prosperity. For this reason, Liu Xia had to arrange a lot of investigation to be stationed outside the city to manage public security.

With Meng Yu and Shou Biao, Liu Xia secretly pushed away a private house in Luoyang City. At this time, the house was brightly lit, and the maids and servants were busy. When they saw Liu Xia coming, they quickly saluted.

"Knock to the prince!"

Liu Xia quickly waved her hand impatiently and said, "Get up! You all go your own way!"

After saying that, regardless of Meng Yu and Shou Biao, they came to the room and saw Chen Yuanyuan sitting and adjusting the pipa. Every time he saw Chen Yuanyuan's charming face, Liu Xia couldn't help sighing. No wonder such a beautiful face is often said to be a disaster for the country and the people! I will suppress you here, so that others will lose the world and miss the big things. Oh, I'm so good. I'll carry all the sufferings in the world for you. Thinking of Liu Xia, she walked over with a smile on her face.

Chen Yuanyuan saw that Liu Xia was coming, quickly put down the pipa in his hand, stood up, walked around the table and walked to Liu Xia quickly.

"The slave family has met the prince!"

Liu Xia quickly reached out and held it, and then held Chen Yuanyuan's jade-like little hand by the way, which was comfortable for a while. He whispered, "Don't be polite. I haven't come to see you for a long time. How are you doing these days? With that, Liu Xia took Chen Yuanyuan in her arms. Chen Yuanyuan blushed and said softly, "The slave family is fine, but it's a little lonely. There is no one else here, and the slave family can't find anyone to talk to." Chen Yuanyuan looked at Liu Xia. Of course, she knew who Liu Xia's three princesses were. They were all her former sisters. Naturally, she yearned to live with them. After all, she could talk in her spare time.

As soon as Liu Xia looked at Chen Yuanyuan's charming appearance, she knew that she might have something to ask herself, because there had been such a thing before. Liu Xia asked, "What's wrong? But what's the matter?" After Liu Xia said that, Chen Yuanyuan said, "Can the prince let the slave family live in the royal palace?" In this way, the slave family doesn't have to be so lonely. The princesses are all former sisters of the slave family..." Of course, Chen Yuanyuan knew that this condition was a little unrealistic. She knew her identity and knew what Liu Xia was afraid of. After saying that, she lowered her head, but her eyes picked up from time to time and glanced at Liu Xia.

Liu Xia was not angry after hearing this. She hugged Chen Yuanyuan with one hand and rubbed the warm little hand with the other. Xinfu: Wu Sangui knew about Chen Yuanyuan two years ago, and the whole world already knew about it, and there was no need to hide it. Instead, Chen Yuanyuan could move into King Zheng's Mansion, but the name was not bad. I can't give it.

Although many people scold Liu Xia for being lustful, more people are very happy. After all, Wu Sangui is a traitor. If it weren't for him, it wouldn't be so easy for him to enter the customs. Most of the time, it is a joke about Wu Sangui. Nowadays, there are popular versions on the market such as "King Zheng's Beauty", "Wu Sangui Lost Beauty, Liu Zheng Wang's Beauty" and so on. Every time they come here, there are thunderous applause and shouts in the teahouse. However, most of these things also happened within the jurisdiction of Liu Xia and the jurisdiction of Nanming and Shang Kexi. No one dared to say this on Wu Sangui's territory.

Since Chen Yuanyuan followed Liu Xia, she has never talked about Wu Sangui. After all, she is now Liu Xia's woman and regards Liu Xia as her own man wholeheartedly. Liu Xia said, "Well, since you all know it, that's good. You don't have to worry about me. In a few days, I will clean up the room in the royal palace and move you in. After hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan's face suddenly showed joy, which fascinated Liu Xia.

PS: About what some friends said that there are too few troops in Guanzhong. In fact, there are not too many people in Guanzhong. After all, there has been a drought for more than ten years, and it has been tossed by Li Zicheng for several years, and the population has decreased. Agriculture is abandoned. In addition, Liu Xia's main combat force is more than 80,000, but each government has a regiment's garrison. There are 9 prefectures in Henan, with a total of 22,500 people. There are also more than a dozen prefectures in Shaanxi, with more than 30,000 troops, so it is reasonable for Liu Xia to support 150,000 troops with his current money and grain.
