[Zhong Qiongyao] Laowu does not have barbecued pork

Mingrui's army to conquer Burma was stationed in Yunnan.This is the southwestern part of the Qing territory. Because it borders several vassal states, there will always be some conflicts and frictions. Small conflicts occur frequently, and it is not uncommon for them to sometimes turn into small wars.In addition, there are many high mountains nearby, and the transportation is very inconvenient and relatively remote. This has resulted in a situation of poverty and backwardness here that has never been improved.

Yong Qi and Lin Bi hired a short-footed mule cart that is best at mountain roads in the local area. After a difficult journey, the group finally saw the army flag hidden in the dense forest from a distance.

At this time, the road became more difficult to walk, so Yong Qi parked the mule cart by the side of the road, and walked up with Lin Bi and the guards.

Mingrui's troops were placed in a valley in Yunnan. The terrain was steep and hidden, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. At the beginning of the war, it could effectively prevent the Burmese army from sneaking attacks.

The group walked for a long time, just when Yong Qi saw that Lin Bi was panting and sweating profusely, and was about to greet everyone to take a rest, he suddenly heard a flock of birds startled deep in the dense forest, subconsciously protecting Lin Bi, The guards guarded the two of them vigilantly.

At this moment, the low bushes at the front, back, left, and right suddenly moved together, making a noisy rustling sound, which made people panic.

Soon, a circle of strangely dressed people appeared around them, all holding firearms, with unfriendly faces, as if they would open fire immediately if they moved slightly.

Lin Bi leaned on Yong Qi with some fear, and stretched out her hand to hold Yong Qi's clothes tightly.

Yong Qi patted her on the head reassuringly, then glanced roughly, her heart sank slightly, each of them was at least targeted by two black muzzles.Although they all brought weapons, they couldn't take them at this time.

——And the most important thing is that the situation in the Southwest is complicated, with many forces, and most of them are independent, and some of them don't take the Qing court seriously at all. Yongqi and the others dare not reveal their identities until they figure out the opponent's position.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, a voice suddenly came from the front. It sounded like a woman's voice, but it was sonorous and clear. Although it had a typical Yunnan accent, it was a fairly standard Mandarin: "Ah Shan, if you are caught, you will be killed." Hurry up and bring it here!"

A tall man standing at the front of the gun-wielding crowd gave Yong Qi a warning look, then signaled his companions to look after him, stepped back a few steps, and then murmured something—he was proficient in Mongolian, Chinese, and Tibetan. Yong Qi, who speaks many languages ​​such as Wei, is also at a loss.

Then there was another sound of footsteps, and a female voice from afar came closer: "You said they had weapons?"

Hearing the woman's words, Yong Qi and the others felt tense, and at the same time looked over vigilantly—it was a girl who was about 30 years old, with a spear on her back, with a dignified heroism, dressed in local Yunnan characteristics. The clothes are very colorful, but they are not tacky at all. On the contrary, they set off her delicate appearance a little bit amazingly.

She waved at the group of people who surrounded Yongqi, signaling to put down the gun, then frowned, and walked straight towards Yongqi.

Seeing the tense expression of the opponent's horse, Yong Qi smiled wryly, they are now meat on the chopping board, how can they be unfavorable to this girl?But... this girl seems to have a high status, and more importantly, she can speak Mandarin...

Yong Qi figured this out, comforted Lin Bi and told her to be calm first, then took a step forward and bowed her hands: "Girl..."

As soon as Yong Qi said something, the girl ignored him at all, but moved her nose, then tilted her head and looked at Lin Bi curiously: "You—"

"Girl, please come to me if you have anything to do, Zhuo Jing doesn't understand anything!" As soon as she realized that the other party was focusing on Lin Bi, Yong Qi immediately blocked the person behind her, her voice became colder, and her face became more serious. It is extremely ugly: "You may be able to move some people, but the price after that is not something you can afford!"

——He was thinking of a remote place like this. He seemed to be particularly fond of women who could reproduce. They were often rewarded to subordinates as prizes or commodities or traded. He was worried that the other party would get Lin Bi's attention.

Unexpectedly, the other party only glanced at him, then turned his head and continued to look at Lin Bi. After a while, he suddenly rushed over and grabbed Lin Bi's wrist.

Although Yong Qi was on guard, he reached out to stop him in a hurry, but he still couldn't stop him. The subordinates he brought didn't care too much, and they all took out the pistols hidden in their sleeves, and the people on the other side immediately pulled the bolts—— The situation is imminent.

Lin Bi was grabbed by the wrist in a ignorant way. This girl looked like an ordinary girl, but she had a lot of strength, no matter how hard she twisted, she couldn't break free.

Unexpectedly, the girl did not do anything to Lin Bi, but carefully looked at the bracelet on Lin Bi's wrist.

Yong Qi didn't understand the mystery of the bracelet - it was Mingrui's first year when he was stationed here and sent it back to the capital for Lin Bi's name.But it’s really a good thing to say, the material is Qinan agarwood, there are 108 beads in total, the color is mellow and the workmanship is simple, because it is good for the body, and the rarity of Qinan agarwood is well known in the world, Yong Qi simply asked Lin Bi stays - he has helped Mingrui so much, it's not too much to make a bracelet.

The other party looked Lin Bi up and down again in surprise, and then waved for people to put away the gun.

Someone on the other side probably raised a question, and they still used the dialect, which Yongqi and the others couldn't understand. Just when they frowned and looked wary, they heard the girl laugh and say: "Okay, okay—all of them are from our own. Others Not to mention, I am very familiar with this string of girls, but the general snatched it from me-this is the best bracelet I have ever made for a girl! I am deeply impressed, of course I know who is wearing the bracelet now! "

Yong Qi was dumbfounded: Isn't this girl here to collect debts?Let me explain, Rui, why did you snatch it when you gave it a gift?The point is whether we can do a good job in the aftermath after the robbery is over?

The people on the other side also looked at each other in blank dismay, but it was obvious that there was no hostility anymore.

So although Yongqi and the others didn't relax completely, they also suppressed their murderous aura.Then I saw the girl holding Lin Bi's hand affectionately: "Sister, did Sister scare you just now? I'm sorry... Oh, by the way, my name is A Sheng, and I am a subordinate of General Mingrui. I told you about you, the one you made, that... amine sulphur, um, it seems to be pronounced like this... really saved a lot of us..."

Lin Bi was never good at dealing with strangers, especially such enthusiastic strangers, so she couldn't help backing away again and again, and gave Yong Qi a "help" wink by the way.

Yong Qi also really needed to understand the situation with the other party, so she stopped him: "Zhuo Jing is not good at dealing with strangers, girl, please let her go."

After speaking, she couldn't help but pull the person behind her, and Lin Bi obediently hid behind Yong Qi.

The girl who claimed to be A Sheng was slightly depressed, but when she met Yong Qi, she turned into another majestic and capable look: "Who are you? Why are you here?"

"It's not convenient to tell me my identity, I want to see Mingrui."

"Did you meet General Mingrui as soon as you said you would?" A Sheng rolled his eyes bluntly: "Report your name and identity first, and after I report it, General Mingrui agrees!"

"You——" Yong Qi didn't expect the other party to have such an attitude, and couldn't help being a little annoyed—not to mention the length of the briefing, they must be treated as prisoners during this period—but his identity cannot be mentioned here.

The two suddenly fell into a stalemate.

At this moment, Lin Bi poked his head out while holding onto Yong Qi's sleeve: "Well, ah, Sister A Sheng, if I want to see Uncle Mingrui, do I have to report it too?"

Facing Lin Bi, Ah Sheng immediately smiled and said, "Oh, I don't need to inform you if you want to see me~"

"Then what if I take them with me?"

A Sheng frowned and glanced at the group of people, and said decisively: "You can only bring one—no weapons!"

It's not fair.But Yong Qi and the others could only agree—Yong Qi and Lin Bi would go there together.

The other guards were naturally very worried, unable to refute their master, they could only question A Sheng: "Why should we trust you?"

Ah Sheng laughed wildly: "You don't have to believe it!"

After finishing speaking, he signaled his subordinates to hand over Yongqi and the others' weapons, then pushed the guards away, and finally took Yongqi, Lin Biwang, and walked deeper into the forest.

"General, there is a situation." Mingrui is checking the map sand table with several other lieutenants in his tent - although the war against Burma is basically settled, the contract they drafted is still on the way back from the capital , as long as the contract is not signed, they will not be able to relax

alert.

In fact, even though the horse was on the spur of the moment, it took more than a month for this contract to come back because the road was not smooth, and during this time, the Burmese army continued to have small groups of troops or just individual soldiers invading by footpaths, without any rules. In other words, they can only be extremely careful.Of course, he also sent local green flag soldiers to sneak attack. In addition to losing soldiers and generals, the damage to the enemy was limited, so he simply just defended.

At this time, when he heard something happened, he motioned for the other party to continue.

"What seems to be happening near Chief A-Gump's territory—the specifics are too far away, and the small ones can't be seen clearly."

The camp has set up hidden high watchtowers around the top of the mountain, and can see all the movements around the camp. As long as there is a large-scale action, it is easy to find it after startling the birds.

"A-Gump..." Mingrui pondered for a moment, "Where is A-Sheng? No message?"

The messenger soldier smiled wryly, "Ms. Asheng doesn't like to carry flares with her, so maybe this time."

Mingrui fell silent, looking at the table with his fingers without rhythm.

"General..." Everyone else looked at Mingrui, knowing what he was worried about—in fact, they never believed in the surrender of those nearby tribes, after all, the centuries-old hatred between each other was not so easy to eliminate.

Unexpectedly, Mingrui laughed after being silent for a while: "A Sheng may not bring a signal flare, but Ah Shan won't... this girl, I don't know what she's planning, just like that... Wait, lieutenant general, you still bring a signal flare." Get someone, go meet that girl, and avoid any more accidents."

Some people led the way, Mingrui smiled, and continued to check the sand table map with the rest of the people——Myanmar is over, maybe you can consider another country...
