Blood from Daming

Chapter 117 Female Soldiers
After Xue Yun paid New Year's greetings to the disabled soldiers and the family members who died in battle, they separated from Xue Si and the others. Xue Yun took Wu Hui all the way back to Xiao Xuezhuang. There, Xue Yun saw the good guy approaching No. 30 and asked Wu Hui next to him: "My lady, why are there so many servants around you?"

Wu Hui: "Most of these people, Xianggong, are orphans and widows that my uncle voluntarily defected to from refugees, and a small part are the children of refugees who took refuge in our Zhuangzi. I was worried that there were too many people, but my uncle thought that there were too few people. I have no choice but to keep these poor women, but they are going to work with the women in the village during the day."

The two returned to the bedroom, Xue Yun looked at the decoration in the room is pretty good: "Hui Er, your girl is a bit afraid that she came from a rich family."

Wu Hui: "There are many refugees who fled to the capital from the Liaodong army. The handsome women have long been scooped up by the officials and wealthy households in the capital. The husband left the capital to go to the place where the refugees gathered outside the Yongding Gate. The refugees heard that It was the important people of the Xue family in the capital who came to seek refuge one after another, saying that the Xue family was a great benevolent person in the capital who set up a shop to deliver porridge to benefit many victims of the disaster. Many refugees can continue to live because of the kindness of the Xue family, so some of them gave away the girls and children they hid. Come to Xuezhuang to join a good family, some women are famous and come to serve as slaves voluntarily, but those fourth uncles who sent their girls and children to Xuezhuang gave money in private."

Xue Yun has been a little confused since he confirmed his mother's parentage with his teacher's wife today. He originally wanted to protect the Ming Dynasty, serve the country faithfully, fight for the Huaxia nation, and fight for his blood in another world, but he didn't know that he would become wanted by the court in a blink of an eye. He is a descendant of the cult rebellion, if the court knows his status, not to mention being an official, he may lose his life.Looking at the happy appearance of Wu Hui beside him, thinking of his beautiful family members in Datong, Xue's Mansion, and Xiao Xue's Mansion, he secretly made up his mind to protect them, and the best way to protect them is to make him stronger.

Xue Yun: "Hui'er, I see that your body is thin. I have a set of exercise methods for strengthening your body. Would you like to learn it?"

Wu Hui repeatedly nodded in agreement, so Xue Yun took Wu Hui into his arms, and the two of them were naked in a yin and yang dual cultivation posture. Xue Yun used both palms and three places to infuse the true energy into Wu Hui, and then guided the true energy into Wu Hui's body Slowly following the repeated flow of limbs and bones, Wu Hui was completely controlled by Xue Yun's true energy and could not help following the movement. Xue Yun's exercise of Wu Hui's kung fu was naturally very blocked at the first time, but after a week, it became much smoother. At dawn Xue Yun helped Wu Hui ran three weekly cycles, forming a small danqi in Wu Hui's dantian.

Xue Yun: "Hui'er, from now on, you can lift the Qi along your navel to move the air mass in the dantian. If you circulate it in your body several times a day, your body will gradually become stronger."

Wu Hui blushed and nodded and asked, "Sir, why can you protect your body better by doing that kind of thing?"

Xue Yun chuckled: "This is my teacher's unique skill, you will know it later, but it won't delay our plan to hurry up and have a baby."

Today, Xue Yun and Wu Hui got up early and were in good spirits. The two chatted about the Zhuangzi while eating the breakfast brought by the maid. What I gave you is actually a set of inner martial arts mentality, after you practice hard, you will have the ability to protect yourself."

Wu Hui: "Msanggong, Huier understands that he must not hold him back, and practice this internal skill as soon as possible."

Xue Yun: "When I'm not around, if you don't understand how to practice, you should ask your godmother more. Don't do it alone, you know?"

Wu Hui nodded, Xue Yun: "I want to train these girls of yours, maybe they can come in handy in the future, you can see if it works."

Wu Hui understood that it was Xue Yun who trained her as a bodyguard, and she was unwilling to express her consent in a hurry before she was too happy.

Xue Yun did what he said, and went with Wu Hui to stand in the dam outside the courtyard, and ordered Wu Hui's personal servant girl to summon all Wu Hui's maids and maids. Xue Yun announced that he would let them practice martial arts and form the female soldiers of Xiao Xuezhuang. team.Some women were reluctant to hear the twittering, but most of the women experienced the war in Liaodong and knew the importance of practicing martial arts to protect themselves. In addition, they were all slaves who signed a contract of sale, and the master's wishes were not up to their servants to make decisions. , Everyone calmed down after a few discussions.

Xue Yun asked Wang Erwa to arrange a few personal soldiers to enter Xiao Xuezhuang to train the female soldiers. Xue Yun asked to start the training step by step. Xue Zhuang ran two laps internally to practice archery, and the top ten with excellent results were rewarded, especially the top three rewards were increased.Now Wu Hui's girls and servants ran away in a long line, causing the women in the village who came to work in Xiaoxuezhuang to watch collectively. Xue Yun handed over this matter to the soldiers to take care of it, but asked them to take it easy when training the female soldiers. After all, these women can't really be trained as soldiers.

When it was almost noon, a soldier under his command came to report that Fourth Uncle Xue had asked the general to go down to Zhuangzi. up.When Xue Yun saw Xue Er, he realized that he was a lot darker. It seems that life in the south is not easy.

Xue Yun: "Second Uncle hasn't seen you for a long time and misses you."

Xue Er: "Young master, my vision is really right. I became a lieutenant general in less than a year, and became a hero admired by everyone in the Ming Dynasty. Hehe, it's really amazing."

Xue Yun: "Second Uncle, let's stop bragging like this, or my nephew will feel embarrassed."

Xue Yun, Xue Er, and Xue Si came to the small courtyard where Xue Zhuang had a party, and the three of them entered a quiet room. Xue Yun looked back: "Why didn't Second Uncle see Fifth Brother?"

Xue Er: "The south side of Xuezhuang is not quiet, the fifth child stayed in the team and did not come back."

Xue Yun: "Second uncle, what else can't happen in the south."

Xue Er: "Recently Shandong thieves have been active in our territory. We have fought several battles without taking advantage of each other. However, the thieves from Dezhou and Dongchang in Shandong have turned us around. Our army has no money. I guess It was ordered by someone."

Xue Yun asked Xue Er to explain the details, and Xue Er let Xue Aoren set up his own Xuejiazhai at the junction of Shuntian Mansion and Baoding Mansion. After eliminating the bandits in Zhangjiazhuang at the end of June, he calmed down for a while. Not long after transporting grain to Cangzhou and doing grain business with our Xue family, Xue’s army found out that it was the government and rich merchants in Zhili and Shandong who gradually blocked our salt, vegetables and other daily necessities, and did not allow local people to come and go with us. We sent them to Cangzhou and Jinan Purchasing personnel also encountered refusal to sell, beatings, scolding, robbery, etc., and the local government ignored them and treated them indifferently. Xuejiazhai has almost become an isolated island.

In the past two or three months, Shandong thieves have frequently moved northward, intercepting many times on both sides of the canal, robbing the fleet and merchants who went northward to trade with my Xue family or passed through our land passage from South Zhili to Beijing.The north-south trade and land tolls that we had just started to improve were paralyzed again.

Because Xue Aoren and Xue Er lacked horses, several attacks were not effective, but many brothers were killed and injured. Everyone felt helpless for the Shandong thieves who went north. Xue Er only had more than 100 cavalry to fight. Tough and good at fighting, it is not something Xue Er's horse-riding infantry can resist.

Xue Aoren saw that the infantry was unable to resist the bandits in Shandong, plus Liu Qianzong and Yu Qianzong's two troops suffered a loss and refused to go out to fight again. In Xuejiazhai, the soldiers did not move, only Xue Er and Xue Wuyi went out to look for opportunities to fight.

In October, Xue Er and Xue Wu got a large number of Mongolian war horses from Xue Yun. Xue Zhuang and Xue Si looked at Xue Er's sad life and voluntarily gave up the idea of ​​war horses, so that Xue Er and Xue Wu got a thousand horses. The [-] infantry in the army were all turned into cavalry, and the mobility of the troops was greatly improved.

Next, Xue Er and Xue Wubu frequently went guerrilla to the Shandong border of Nanmen, successively killed several small groups of horse bandits, and wiped out more than 100 bandits.Xue Aoren, who was constantly being severely criticized by the Ministry of War, took a breath.

However, the troubles of Xue Er and Xue Wu also came. Mr. Liu Qian, Mr. Yu Qian, Mr. Wang Qian, Mr. Li, Mr. Ma Ba, including Xue Qingyi, Xue Aoren's direct descendant, Zhang Sanzhu, they are all jealous of Xue Er and Xue Wu. He took a war horse and ran to Xue Aoren to ask for some of it.

Xue Aoren told those soldiers that these horses were given to him by Datong Xue Yun to his second uncle and fifth brother, and had nothing to do with the barracks, but Liu Qianzong, Yu Qianzong, Wang Qianzong, and some of Xue Aoren's subordinates did not agree with each other, and told Xue Aoren that they were generals of the Xue family soldiers. You can't treat one more favorably than another, and twisted Xue Aoren to stalk him to put on a posture that he would never withdraw his troops until he achieved his goal.

Xue Aoren had no choice but to find Boss Wanqian to discuss it first, and wanted Boss Wanqian to do the work of Xue Er and Xue Wu. Here comes a push, three, two, five, clean.

Xue Aoren had no choice but to talk to Xue Er and Xue Wu in person, hoping that they could allocate half of the horses, even a third, to ease the conflicts in other camps.

Xue Er and Xue Wu insisted that this team was established by Patriarch Xue Rui, and that all the weapons, armour, and war horse supplies were privately provided by the Xue family, and that they could be easily given away to outsiders, so Xue Aoren was asked to find Xue Rui and Xue Yun.

Xue Aoren knew the purpose of the Xue family to set up this cavalry, so he had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​asking Xue Er and Xue Wu for horses, but he felt very uncomfortable when Xue Er and Xue Wu refused to listen to him. Xue Er, Xue Wu and the others are even more antagonistic, and the two sides no longer communicate with each other about their military operations.
