Mang Gutai didn't understand Chinese. He stared at the episode in front of him and asked inexplicably: "What's going on? Do they know each other?" "Shhh-" Huang Taiji immediately stopped Mang Gutai's question. While listening to the west, he stared intently at the Ming army's formation, and there was a hint of nervousness and excitement on his face, which had always been calm and composed. Huang Shi was already covered in cold sweat from the moment he discovered the Zhao sisters, but he must not show the slightest panic or hesitation when facing Huang Taiji's sharp gaze. Huang Shi looked around at the soldiers and understood that he had only one choice. After listening to Zhang Minghe's words, he sneered and asked Hong Antong: "Mr. Hong Qian, do you really think that we will put the soldiers in danger?" "Follow me." After asking, he didn't wait for Hong Antong or Zhang Minghe. After speaking, Huang Shi turned his horse's head and headed south. At the same time, he repeated the order in a more serious tone: "Follow me." Huang Shi rode his horse slowly and marched slowly. The officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty also picked up their reins to follow Huang Shi, who was riding in front. Sweat poured out from under the helmet and soaked through the skirt of his clothes. He walked forward without looking back and murmured to himself: "Are all the Zhao family crazy?" Hong Antong, who was following Huang Shi just in time, took this sentence into his ears and moved forward gently. He leaned forward and secretly said to Huang Shi: "My lord Mingjian and his subordinates thought that the behavior of the slaves opposite was also very strange." "I know." Huang Shi interrupted Hong Antong impatiently and shook his head and said: "But I don't dare to try. Because if I make a wrong move," Huang Shi said, looking forward and sighing, "The leader of the Zhengbai Banner, Huang Taiji, is not Yi Yu. We have to be careful with him. " Looking into the distance. The Ming army at the scene slowly walked away. Huang Taiji's expression also changed repeatedly. He raised his riding whip several times and dropped it several times. Mang Gurtai couldn't help but wonder: "Eighth brother, what are you doing?" Huang Taiji said while thinking: "Fifth brother, you Don't you think Huangshi's behavior is strange? Maybe he didn't have any ambush at all, and he didn't have any light troops to collect the defeated soldiers. ""Then why don't we catch up" Mang Gurtai suddenly said half a sentence. Swallowing it back, if Huang Taiji had indeed guessed correctly, if they wanted to pursue Huangshi, they could only rely on the two brothers and the hundred people around them. First go up and hold the opponent back, and then the cavalry behind you come up and attack. But if Huang Taiji guesses wrongly that there are troops behind Huangshi, the hundred of them will definitely be chopped into pieces. In the past, every time he fought against Huang Shi, his plan failed and he suffered disaster. After thinking of this, Mang Gurtai suddenly became discouraged: "That Huang Shi is very cunning. And the generals of Ming Dynasty don't seem to have the courage." Huang Taiji heard this. He nodded and finally dropped the whip he raised weakly. He said in agreement: "Huang Shi is indeed a relatively mature and prudent person and should not put himself in danger Well, although I haven't seen such a general in many years, there are still some people in Ming Dynasty." You are less daring. Maybe" Miss Zhao bit her sister's clothes for a while. Finding that the person who had kidnapped their sisters had fled in a hurry, she managed to sit up regardless of the pain all over her body, just in time to see the Yellowstone flag disappear behind the ridge. Miss Zhao stared blankly at the place where the Ming army flag disappeared. She could hardly believe her eyes. Suddenly her mouth tightened and a rope came out from behind her head and tightened her mouth again Huang Taiji lowered his head and recalled what he had just heard. I listened carefully to the meaning of the shouts. He suddenly raised his head and looked to the west to see that the Houjin soldier had subdued the woman who was asking for help and was tying up her feet. Huang Taiji glanced south again and the Ming army had completely disappeared from sight. He softly asked Mang Gurtai next to him: "Fifth brother, do you want to pursue or not?" "I don't know. Don't ask me. You can make up your mind." Mang Gurtai groaned for a moment and then gritted his teeth: "I'll go after him, but stay here. If there is an emergency, you can lead the troops and retreat "Forget it, fifth brother." Huang Taiji looked at the north and shook his head, then looked at the sun setting in the west: "It's too late to pursue now. Let's retreat quickly. At least the army is safe now." Huangshi returned to sleep. It was already dark when they arrived at Hua Hua. Jin Guan and the others had left Jue Hua a long time before him, and they had just returned to Jue Hua. It seemed that their retreat was really stable. All the generals of Juehua were waiting for Huang Shi's return outside the camp. Seeing this, Huang Shi quickly jumped off his horse and bowed to the generals of Juehua's Guan Ning army and said, "Your banners are not in disorder, and the dust is not rising, so the slaves have not seen through the reality of our army." "Huang's safe escape today is really due to the efforts of all the kings." There was a clang of armor in front of the gate, and Jin Guan and others said respectfully: "Huang Junmen's words are serious." After saying this, they all raised their chins. No one turned around to take a look at General Yao beside him. The memorial ceremony for the fallen soldiers during the day was also presided over by Huang Shi, who silently completed a series of sacrificial tasks. China attaches great importance to the sacrifice of life. The soldiers who died in the battle for victory are in the military.The center is taken very seriously. In today's battle, both psychologically and physically, the Ming army lost first and then won. Several generals of the Guan Ning Army stood behind Huang Shi, each holding incense in their hands and following Huang Shi in a solemn kowtow ceremony. After the solemn memorial ceremony is completed, it is time to celebrate the victory. General Jin Shen arranged for a soldier to come up in time with a bowl of wine. Huang Shi took the full bowl of wine, paused briefly, and said loudly: "Although I belong to Dongjiang, I have also drank the fragrance of the Lords of Liao Town for a long time." It¡¯s so great to rely on the might of the Holy Emperor to join forces with you to defeat thieves and intimidate the enemy! I would like to use this wine to congratulate the Holy Emperor for the Ming Dynasty and congratulate the Liao Town!¡± After saying this, Huang Shi poured the wine into the bowl. After drinking all the water, all the generals in Guan Ning also held wine bowls and followed Nuo: "Congratulations to Dongjiang Town!" Yao Yuxian, who did not participate in the pursuit, seemed a little embarrassed. His voice was not loud and he was embarrassed to stand. Went to the center of the crowd. The seat that always belonged to General Yao in the past has now been occupied by General Jin. Even Zhang Guoqing doesn't look at him seriously now. After Huang Shi led everyone to drink the congratulatory wine, Jin Shen rushed to Huang Shi's side with a single stride. General Yao was about to invite him to a banquet, but he could only stand aside and watch helplessly. Normally, Yao Yuxian didn¡¯t do anything wrong. He didn¡¯t carry out small tricks behind the Changsheng Army¡¯s back and he didn¡¯t steal Zhang Minghe¡¯s gun. But now General Jin Shen and his group have obviously formed a united front against Deputy General Yao. Huang Shi expressed his opinion when he saw Guan Ningjun being so inconvenient. It's not easy to go against everyone. Besides, General Jin Shen's performance this afternoon was very brave. Walking into the military camp, Huang Shi saw that Juehua's civil servants had already arrived at the center and had set up two large wine tables. The seats on the left hand side were naturally prepared for the guests, General Huang Shi. Zhao Yingong was sitting at attention on the right seat, and other civil servants followed him and filled the right side of the banquet. After entering, Huang Shi was thinking about how to report the whereabouts of his two sisters to Zhao Tongpan, but before he could speak, Zhao Yingong waved his hand and whispered to Huang Shi that he would discuss the matter after the banquet. It is better not to affect Juehua's civil and military enthusiasm now. Huang Shi waited restlessly for a long time and finally followed Zhao Yingong when he stood up. He stopped him outside and explained everything about today. Since Huang Shi gave him the vaccination this morning, Zhao Yingong was a little mentally prepared for what happened to his eldest sister, but the behavior of Miss Zhao Er was beyond his expectation. Throughout the day, Zhao Yingong had been busy providing logistics to the soldiers and taking care of Juehua's office, so he had no time to go home and take a look. Now listen to Huang Shi tell what happened. Zhao Tongpan's face turned pale at first. Then it was like death. Zhao Yingong, who was stunned for a long time, took a breath. He stood there feeling stiff, his hands and feet were cold, and he didn't know what to do. He kept mumbling to himself: "The two sisters are very close. They have been thinking about each other since they were young and refused to let the other suffer." The pain in Zhao Yingong's eyes Huang Shi felt sad and desolate looking at it. He wanted to reach out and pat the poor man on the shoulder, but on second thought, he sighed in sympathy and helplessly returned to the banquet. Poor Zhao Tong was left outside in panic and without anyone. After returning to the banquet, Huang Shi told several people around him that Zhao Yingong might be too tired and felt unwell to go back and rest first. While he was speaking, he saw Hu Yining's eyes carefully wandering on his face for a moment and then quickly moving away. ¡ As soon as he saw Huang Taiji walking into the tent, Mang Gurtai, who had been waiting inside for a long time, jumped up: ¡°How?¡± Huang Taiji nodded. He took a long breath and said, "The younger one insisted that she had nothing to do with Huangshi, no matter how I threatened her, she would not be afraid. But the older one was more timid. I recruited them all before I even asked. It turns out that her sister is Huangshi's betrothed wife." "Huangshi's betrothed wife?" Mang Gurtai was so surprised that he was almost speechless. They originally suspected that the sisters might have some relationship with important people. Their families had official contacts with Huangshi, but they never expected to catch such a big fish. Mang Gurtai asked suspiciously: "Why did Huang Shi let his betrothed wife go to the battlefield? How could he leave his wife and sister-in-law on the battlefield and ignore him? You must not have been deceived, right?" "It is indeed sensational. But The sister explained clearly when Huang Shi asked for marriage, who sent her, and the wedding ceremony. I asked her over and over again to confirm, but she couldn't even think about it and repeated it word for word. It definitely doesn't look like a make-up lie. I think this is 90% credible. Also, according to the sister, the person who proposed to her sister on behalf of Huang Shi was a man named Zhang Zaidi, although he was Huang Shi's most trusted confidant. It stands to reason that few people in Juehua know about Zhang Zaidi's identity, but she can just tell her that he looks and is about the same age. If there is no real marriage proposal, there is no way she can make it up. ¡± Huang Taiji looked at the dumbfounded Mang Gurtai and laughed to himself: "Today we were deceived by this guy again. Huang Shi is really a ruthless character who can even leave his wife alone." Huang Taiji then spoke again. Talking about why the two sisters went to the battlefield and the Bao Yi's confession, he finally concluded with a sneer: "The eldest brother of these sisters is now one of Juehua's civil servants. If there is no accident, their brother will also be promoted. It's really a rare thing to live in." ." "Speak slowly." Mang Gurtai divided a new category in his notebook. Then he filled in all the important information he just heard and upgraded and maintained the information he had on hand. After that, Mang Gurtai chewed his nails and thought for a while: "What are you going to do with them?" Huang Taiji lowered his head in the tent. He walked in a circle and shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, but I have to try to verify what they said first. We can't listen to their words. After all, we never knew that there was a betrothed wife in Huangshi. We have never heard of it." Taiyi slapped his thigh and said fiercely: Yes, if they find out that they told lies, they will regret it before it's too late! " Just then, a look of shame suddenly appeared on Gurtai's face, and his tone became waning: "If what they said is true If we beat the shit out of Huang Shi every time, then it will be his wife. It doesn't matter if it's a small score. But so far we have been invincible against him, and now we are threatening him by kidnapping his wife It is a bit close to rogue. It really damages the reputation of Mang Gurtai. " When I looked up and saw the half-smiling look on Huang Taiji's face, the shame on Gurtai's face became even stronger. He scratched his head in embarrassment: "Oh, of course I have no intention of letting them go back, eighth brother. You have the final say on how to deal with it if you have a good brain. " "Their affairs cannot be known to Father Khan for the time being. Otherwise, my father will lose his temper. We can't stop it. " "Of course I understand this very well. " "I have kept Huang Shi's house in Liaoyang for him. If it is confirmed that this is really his betrothed wife, I will let the sisters live there. We can't do anything too extreme, we have to leave room for dealing with Huangshi in the future. " Mang Gurtai nodded and asked: "Then what? " "Then just take it one step at a time. It has been almost five years since the two women Li Yongfang gave to Huangshi. I have never allowed anyone to touch them, and they are still living in that room. This time, I will leave them to Huangshi's betrothed wives to discipline them. No one can say anything wrong about such etiquette. It's also a good time for them to get to know each other. Well, after returning to Liaoyang, the top priority is to find out whether there is such a thing as marrying a wife. The sister has always denied it, which seems a bit true. " Zhao Yingong is not here. The burden of preventing the banquet from being a dull moment falls entirely on the shoulders of Huang Shi. Although the accompanying guards have blocked several rounds of wine for him, such heavyweights as General Yao and General Jin You definitely can't rely on your entourage to resist when you come to toast. It seems that it is only a matter of time before Huang Shi feels that he is on the verge of death and gets under the table. " Jin Shen will be particularly active tonight. Seeing another round of wine coming, Huang Shi secretly cried out in pain, but he had no choice but to resist. He just stood up with a smile, but suddenly a man came over and stopped in front of Huang Shi and pointed at Jin Guan. He smiled and said, "General Jin, it seems you haven't paid any respect to me tonight. " "Master Zhao, please forgive me. This is all the fault of the general." " Huang Shi returned to his seat and sat down. Zhao Yingong walked among the people and took turns to toast, which suddenly enlivened the atmosphere in the room. He felt that there were many nefarious people in the Chinese civil and military schools. They drank too much, so they shouted loudly - Zhao Huang Shi wanted to go out and help him out, but Zhao Yingong agreed to drink three glasses of wine. After that, Zhao Tongpian pursed his lips tightly and turned the empty cup around in his hands to show it to everyone. There was a lot of cheers. But the more he acted like this, the more uncomfortable Huang Shi felt. General Hu Yining seemed to be restless and kept twisting in his seat. When Zhao Yingong toasted to him, the smile on General Hu's face was also very forced. After finally waiting for Zhao Yingong to turn around and sit down, Huang Shi hurriedly approached him to persuade him to rest first, but as if he expected what Huang Shi was going to say, Zhao Yingong said softly before he could say anything: "Tonight is a celebration banquet for everyone in Juehua Civil and Military Affairs." I'm so happy that I don't dare to depose General Huang for personal reasons. No need to say more. "Zhao Yingong's words made Huang Shi retreat with emotion. After Zhao Tongpan finished speaking, he started chatting and laughing with other officials. After a while, he raised a glass and walked over to congratulate Jin Gong and them in person. Huang Shi stared at Zhao Yingong for a while. The civil servants he had always disliked gave him a completely different impression tonight. In the past, Huang Shi had always thought that Zhao Yingong's gentle and gentle manner was just posturing, but now it actually gave him the feeling of a troubled young man.sp; In the following two days, Huangshi felt that Zhao Yingong seemed to have been paralyzing himself with work. He was either soaking in the military camp or doing official business in the study all day long, and he even barely ate a few meals. Huang Shi felt that he was boring, so he didn't go to Zhao Yingong's place. Other Juehua officials are not yet aware of the affairs of the Zhao family. Since the war started, Zhao Yingong has done an excellent job in both battalion affairs and logistics supply. Most of the officials praised him behind his back, and even his colleagues who had personal grudges with Zhao Tongpan had nothing to say. Most people on Juehua Island now believe that Zhao Tongpan is about to be promoted, so they will not begrudge their kind words and laugh at these compliments and flattery of Zhao Yingong. On the last day of the fifth year of Tianqi, Huangshi asked Zhao Yingong who came to visit to sit down and let the inner guards serve tea. After sitting down, Zhao Tongpan took a sip of tea gracefully and then calmly talked about the purpose of his visit today. It turns out that Ningyuan Fort has returned to normal. Tomorrow is the first day of the sixth year of the Apocalypse. Zhao Yingong wants to invite Huang Shi to go to Ningyuan Fort with him to pay New Year greetings and write a unified memorial about the entire Ningyuan-Juehua campaign and submit it to the court. Huang Shi smiled and said: "Such a good general, I have long wanted to meet Mr. Yuan of Ningqian Road." Zhao Yingong smiled lightly when he heard this: "So that Mr. Huang will know that the imperial court has promoted Mr. Yuan to be an envoy." "As an envoy?" "During the questioning, Huang Shi's face showed no change, but he was shocked in his heart.
