The dignified king of the country was actually captured in the capital. Naturally, Xiao Kangxi could not bear this shame and humiliation. He tried his best to draw his sword to kill Liu Ziguang, but he was lying on the horse and it was difficult to perform his movements. Liu Ziguang subdued the sword before it was even half drawn.
Liu Ziguang grabbed his sword with his hand, glanced at it, and couldn't help but admired: "What a sword, it has turtle inscriptions." This kind of pattern is generally only found on ancient swords, indicating that the sword's material and smelting techniques are very rare, and it is definitely rare.
The sword. Turn over the other side of the blade and look at it. There is also a row of small words "Nurhachi's own use".
Liu Ziguang smoothly took off the scabbard of Kangxi's waist, returned the sword to its sheath, inserted it behind him, patted Kangxi's face and said, "Little brother, uncle Confiscated the sword, please be honest." After saying this, he chopped it with his palm.
He hit the main artery in his neck and knocked Kangxi unconscious. The two of them rode a horse together, bypassed the city wall, and ran towards the east.
The transportation from Beijing to Tianjin is very convenient. A wide horse road passes through Langfang and Wuqing directly to Tianjin Wei. There are many inns along the way. The heroes of the Tiandi Society who set out first will naturally not let go of these government-run inns and rush in to plunder them all.
, taking all the horses and vehicles as their own, increasing the number of vehicles and greatly increasing the speed of travel. The distance between the capital and Tianjin was already close, and it seemed that they could be reached within one day.
Liu Ziguang's speed was very slow, because he was carrying two people on one horse, and Kangxi was wearing heavy armor. Fortunately, not far away, he saw Da Wenxi, Zhong Shouyong and others waiting by the roadside. They came from the nearby village
He "borrowed" a carriage and some mules, put the injured Zhong family father and son in the carriage, and waited for a while. As expected, not long after the explosion, the Marquis returned safely, but he also brought an extra trophy.
The emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty was brought here.
With the help of carriages and mules, the team was finally motorized, and the group of people ran non-stop in the direction of Tianjin.
In Qianqing Palace, after learning the news that her grandson had been kidnapped, Dayu'er was so shocked that she even dropped the Buddhist beads on her hand. She didn't care to punish Shi Erkang, who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing like garlic. She stood up from the chair and screamed
He shouted: "Rice buckets, they are all buckets of rice. Prepare horses for the Ai family, and the Ai family will go to save their grandchildren themselves."
"The Empress Dowager must not take risks." The ministers kowtowed to dissuade her, and Dayu'er's face turned purple with anger: "If the Ai family doesn't go, how can we rely on you trash? Don't forget, the Ai family's body is bleeding
Mongolian blood!”
Although Da Yu'er is nearly fifty years old, her body is well maintained. She goes hunting in Mulan Paddock every year, and she also pays attention to physical exercise. When it comes to archery and equestrian skills, she is probably better than those who kneel in the Qianqing Palace and indulge in wine and sex.
The ministers were much better. She quickly changed into a military uniform under the service of the palace maid. The Royal Horse Supervisor had already prepared a rouge horse. The Empress Dowager did not need anyone to support her. She climbed onto the horse vigorously, and a dozen others also changed into military uniforms.
The personal maid also got on her horse and was about to set off when suddenly a familiar figure arrived on a chariot.
"Ancestor, let Suma go too!" The person who came was Suma Lagu. After being treated by the imperial doctor, she had woken up from her coma. Her deep-seated hatred made her ignore the pain and immediately asked to rush to the first place.
Wire.
"Su Ma~~" Dayu'er was very moved. She hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, let's go kill the enemy with grandma."
"Ancestor, this is the letter that Mr. Hong asked me to send to you." Aunt Sumala took out a piece of paper and asked the eunuch to forward it to Dayu'er. Dayu'er took it and looked at it. There were only a few words on it: "Go away, thief."
Tianjin Sea Road.”
"General Hong is really clever." Da Yu'er said with emotion. If Hong Chengchou hadn't sent this information in time, she really didn't know where to pursue. Liu Ziguang was so cunning, who knew which direction he could go. Now he has
Hong Chengchou's guidance made it much easier to handle, and Da Yu'er's thinking suddenly became broader. Yes, there are many checkpoints going south and west, making it difficult to escape quickly. There is no need to think about going north. The only way is to go east from Tanggu, Tianjin and enter the sea.
, it is most convenient to take a sea-going ship to return south, so no matter what tricks the enemy uses to confuse them, just pursue them southeast.
"Command! The Mongolian cavalry from the Fengtai camp, each with two horses, is advancing towards Tianjin. If they catch up with the thieves, they only need to besiege them and do not act rashly. They must not hurt the emperor. Let the beacon tower light the beacon fire and notify all checkpoints to be on alert."
A state of emergency has been entered, and martial law has been declared in the capital. Anyone who goes out without permission will be executed, anyone who hides weapons secretly will be executed, and Green Camp soldiers who participate in robbery will also be executed!"
After giving the order vigorously and resolutely, the Empress Dowager led the cavalry and rushed out of the Qianqing Gate. Shi Erkang, who was still kneeling on the ground, seemed to remember something, and resolutely stood up and rushed out: "Brothers in the bodyguard, follow the Emperor.
The Queen Mother is going to kill the enemy." All the guards responded loudly, and each went to find horses to follow them out of the capital to pursue. Only a bunch of fat-headed Manchu and Han officials were left, looking at each other in confusion, not knowing what to do.
In this era, there is no good way to issue military orders in an emergency. Only fast horses are the most reliable. From the palace to Fengtai camp, the cavalry will take an hour to form a team and set off, but this is already the fastest speed.
, In comparison, the transmission speed of the beacon tower is much faster. There is a beacon tower every twenty-five miles from the capital to Tianjin Wei. It was originally used to deliver the Dagukou warning signal to the capital, but now it has the opposite effect.
As a result, the smoke started to rise from the capital side first, but there was no other information about the smoke. The garrison of Tianjin Guard did not know what to do. They could only gather the troops to stand by and did not dare to march towards the capital. You must know that in
Sending troops to Beijing without getting a clear order is tantamount to treason.
By the time the imperial army led by Dayu'er personally rushed out of Yongding Gate, Liu Ziguang and the others were already approaching Daxing. The imperial army advanced all the way and saw many cavalrymen from the Xiaoqi battalion who had been hit by arrows. They were all chasing Liu Ziguang.
Da Yu'er was shot to death by his superb archery skills. Seeing the tragic death of the Eight Banners athletes, Dayu'er became even more indignant. He galloped his horse and chased after her, causing the rouge horse to stir up a muddy mist on the dirt road after the rain.
The speed of Liu Ziguang's team is very uneven. There are tall and strong military fast horses, poor horses pulling plows in the countryside, and mules that can't walk fast. The overall speed can only be slowed down by the slowest horses. Fortunately,
When they reached Daxing, they met Dai Wenpei waiting on the roadside. She and a dozen heroes were worried that the people evacuating behind would not have horses to ride on, so they specially brought more than 20 stage horses to wait here, and also came from
Fresh water, noodles, eggs and pickles were brought from nearby villages. Seeing that his father and younger brother escaped safely, Dai Wenpei cried with joy. The family was finally reunited. Although the old hero Dai Zhongying was lying on the carriage and could not move, he could not move.
His heroic tone was still there, and he laughed boldly: "Silly girl, why are you crying? I'm not a good person."
The group of people rested on the side of the road for the time being, eating and drinking. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dai Zhongying said to his daughter and son: "Tiedan Village is gone, but we are still there, Wen Pei, Wen Long, you two will be together from now on."
Follow the chief helmsman, dad is old and can no longer lead you to work hard."
"Dad, I want to follow you." Dai Wenlong is a child after all. Hearing his father speak like this, tears suddenly flowed down his face.
"Don't cry, Wenlong. You are a man and you must shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting your home and country." Dai Zhongying looked at his young son kindly, turned to his daughter and said: "Wenpei, go and invite the chief helmsman."
Come."
Liu Ziguang's mouth was stuffed with big cakes. Hearing that Dai Zhongying was looking for him, he hurried to the carriage. Seeing Dai Zhongying getting up, he quickly advised: "Old hero, please don't touch your wounds. If you have anything to say,
Just say it and I will do it."
Dai Zhongying stretched out his hand gently, as if to grab something. Dai Wenpei quickly held his father's hand, but Dai Zhongying pinched his daughter's wrist with his backhand and put her hand on Liu Ziguang's hand.
"Wen Pei, dad has handed you over to the chief helmsman. He knows your thoughts and wants to find a real hero. While dad is still alive, I will help you decide your life-long destiny today."
"Dad, as long as the Tatars are destroyed, your daughter will not be married." Dai Wenpei said with a blushing face, but did not take away the little hand placed in Liu Ziguang's palm.
"Wenlong, come here." Dai Zhongying called his son to him again and said, "Cut off the braid."
Dai Wenlong didn't know what his father meant, but he decided to cut off the braid he had had for many years and put it in front of his father.
"Son, remember that we are Han people, not Tatars. Only Tatars have pig tail-like braids. From now on, you will follow the chief helmsman. No, he is the Zhenwuhou of the Ming Dynasty. Although it is good
A man is not a soldier, and he loves iron but does not hammer nails, but you are a famous red shirt soldier under Marquis Zhenwu, who can fight the Tatars with real swords and guns and avenge our Tiedan Village."
Dai Zhongying knew that his son wanted to be a knight who traveled around the world and did not want to be a soldier, so he solemnly entrusted the matter to Liu Ziguang, because after experiencing ups and downs for most of his life, he knew that the world was a world after all, and he could never fight against the imperial court.
As long as one person is displeased with the court, no matter how good your gang is, it will be wiped out in a blink of an eye. Dai Wenlong is still young. If he starts to live in the world now, his future will be very worrying. It is better to follow Liu Ziguang and live in the court.
Fan, I have just entrusted my daughter to Liu Ziguang, which means that Liu Ziguang will be Dai Wenlong's future brother-in-law. With such a brother-in-law of a high-ranking official in the imperial court, he can be an official and a half-time official in less than two years.
Hun is much stronger.
How could the Dai Wenpei siblings understand the old man's hard work, but they did not dare to disobey the old man's wishes at this moment, so they could only nod with tears in their eyes: "Dad, we understand."
The soldier in charge of sentry seemed to have sensed something. When he lay on the ground and heard it, he immediately shouted: "No, the Tatar cavalry is chasing us."
