Blood from Daming

Chapter 6
Xue Yun came to the cross street and bought a big pancake soy milk from the stall owner selling breakfast to fill his stomach. He took out a small piece of silver and paid the bill. He didn't want to make up more than a hundred copper coins, so Xue Yun had to go home with the money. go.

When Xue Yun returned home, Xue Wu greeted him and said, "Jin Yiwei is here, the old man told you to go back to the mansion quickly."

Xue Yun walked quickly into the mansion just in time to meet the youngest Mao who handed him a bunch of money he was carrying: "Take it and use it, it will be to your benefit later."

After entering the inner hall, Old Master Xue greeted Xue Yun and said, "Come and meet Master Chu of Jinyiwei Qianhu."

Xue Yun hurriedly bowed to Lord Chu, a thousand households of Jinyiwei, and saw four Jinyiwei school captains in flying fish suits behind him, standing there upright with embroidered spring knives in their hands.

Jin Yiwei Qianhu Master Chu smiled and said: "Let the young hero Sun come to Japan to have another young general by his side, hahahaha."

Lord Chu explained the matter in detail: yesterday, four criminals were sent to Fusi Prison in Jinyiwei North Town, where they were under severe punishment.The two women and Li Qing vomited out what they knew, and the other Tartar, Ji Lezhan, became a fool with his crazy talk.The leading Tatars heard from the young woman that they were the soldiers of the captive chieftain Nurhachi. They brought Li Qing, Ji Lezhan and Zhang Quan, who was killed, and another Tartar. Five people came to the capital this time to meet and inquire about news. It's a pity that the leading tartar is dead, so we can't continue to investigate.

But having these three Tartars, two traitors and two women is also a great achievement.Only then did the Commander of Jin Yiwei send Chu Qianhu to collude with Master Luo Sigong, so that he could report it to the Holy Majesty in time and wait for the court's reward.

Chu Qianhu took the list of meritorious persons written by Mrs. Xue, and behind him, Captain Jin Yiwei held a box of silver taels presented by Mrs. Xue, and got up to leave.

Old Master Xue saw that the visitor had left, and then said to Xue Yun: "Commander Lord Luo Sigong gave this old man some face, I'm afraid Ao Ren's first contribution will not be able to run away with a defense, it's all thanks to Yun'er."

Old Master Xue told the old housekeeper Mao to hand out the reward money to make the whole family happy: "Old housekeeper Yun'er will decide how much money he will pay in the future, and you don't have to report to me again."

Old Master Xue said in a low voice: "Yun'er has something to tell you. A shipment of goods brought by your uncle Qian Kai to the capital was lost in Cangzhou. The family has been doing business with uncle. I reported to the authorities in Cangzhou and found some clues. , I am afraid it is the remnant of the White Lotus Sect. There is nothing the Cangzhou government can do if hundreds of people are gathered."

Xue Yun replied, "Grandfather means"

"Yun'er, your father and several elder brothers are all officials, and your two elder brothers are not angry, I know your martial arts skills are not in vain, and Qi Bo has put in so much painstaking efforts, I want you to go and get the things back. To wipe out the remnants of the White Lotus Sect is also to share the worries of the Holy One and make meritorious service for the court." Old Master Xue said

Xue Yun said: "My child respects his life."

Old Mrs. Xue said: "Then I will ask Xue Er to accompany you. You want to treat him as your own relative, can you do that?"

Xue Yun said, "My child can do it."

Old Master Xue said: "Your uncle Qian Kai will go with you. There are more than a hundred people in his house who have never seen blood. He is in charge of the government."

Xue Yun said: "Grandpa, who among us is responsible."

"Of course you are in charge. Qian Kai is a businessman who fights wars, so it's not good for him. Can Xue Er be your deputy?" Qian Kai also nodded in agreement.

Old Master Xue said, "Xue Yun, discuss it with Xue Er Qian Kai, and leave as soon as possible."

According to Qian Kai, this shipment of silk and satin fabrics, rouge and gouache, various objects, and Western utensils are worth 10 taels of silver.

In the afternoon of that day, Xue Yun and Xue Erqian Kai left the capital outside their own village. Xue Wu Xueliu, a dozen servants, and a dozen young Zhuangzhuang waited there. There were about 30 people. Once everyone arrived, everyone got on their horses. The official road to the south is galloping towards Cangzhou. "

Cangzhou faces the sea in the east, and is an important port for north-south traffic of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and connects Hejianfu in the west.Xue Yun's men and horses drove all the way until it was dark and traveled more than 100 miles. When they saw a ruined temple, they asked everyone to go in to rest and eat some food.

In the middle of the night, Xue Yun and Xue Er were resting together, when Qian Kai came over and said, "Someone came to report that my eldest brother caught up with the robbers, who were leaving with their goods. There were too many people on the other side and they didn't do anything. Please come quickly." go.

Xue Er said: "Useless guy, he doesn't have the guts to get back his things after being robbed."

Qian Kai blushed and said, "The robbers first went west to Nanpi, and are about to enter Hejian Mansion."

Xue Er said: "My lord, the robbers left Cangzhou, so we had no choice but to go to Hejian Mansion, but it's a little closer to go there. We can just wait by the edge of Hejian Mansion when Tianma Maming rushes over."

Qian Kai said, "Can you catch up?"

Xue Er said: "I can't walk fast while pulling the goods."

Qian Kai also wanted to catch up with Xue Yun and set off earlier, Xue Er said, "You can't walk fast at night, why don't you take a good rest." He asked Qian Kai to send someone to inform Qian Kai's elder brother that he would try to hold him back if he was walking fast.

Finally arrived at the border between Hejian Mansion and Cangzhou before noon. The terrain here is flat, the view is wide, and it is the only way to Hejian Mansion.

When everyone was resting, a large group of people came from the direction of Hejianfu. About 300 people rushed forward with knives, guns and sticks.

Xue Er told everyone to get ready, the sword was unsheathed, and the bow was stringed.At this time, the other party also noticed Xue Yun and the others, and at the same time a long car queue stretched across the border of Cangzhou.A large group of people coming from the direction of Hejian Mansion cheered.

Xue Er said, "My lord, this must be the robber's reinforcements, what do you think?"

Xue Yun said: "Let's use horses to overwhelm them first, and then stop the convoy. There is still time."

Xue Er said: "Grandpa Qian, you send someone to inform your people, and follow them so that when we defeat the enemy, we will attack the convoy from two directions."

Xue Yun looked at the people behind him and shouted: "It's time for all of you to fight the enemy for the Xue family and the court. The Xue family's rule: kill the enemy with all your might and never back down. We share life and death, and share misfortune and fortune."

Everyone shouted: "Fight the enemy desperately, never back down. Life and death are shared, and blessings and misfortunes are shared."

Xue Yun shouted: "Kill the enemy, ten thousand victories."

The crowd shouted: "Kill the enemy, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories."

More than 30 people rode horses and rushed towards the enemy in front under the leadership of Xue Yun. Before the enemy on the other side could figure it out, the horses rushed in front of them.

Xue's family members are all battle-tested, and even Zhuang Ding is also well-trained.In the blink of an eye, each of them shot three arrows, Xue Wu and Xue Liu shot five arrows at most, and Xue Er shot six arrows.

Xue Yun actually sent out the nine-point arrow technique, which surprised everyone.The enemy in front fell down in a big way, and everyone was in a mess. Some people ran around, and the leaders shouted, trying to drive the whole team to fight, but they didn't wait for them to get ready.

Xue Yun brandished his long spear and commanded everyone from the Xue family to rush into the center of the enemy.
