Chapter 18: Stepping on the Wind and Snow

Lu Deyin and Zhang Li returned to the courtyard, and saw Chen Poe, Li Chen, and Huang brothers leading a group of women's soldiers to move things behind the courtyard. Zhang Li was surprised that he didn't see Zhang Ping'an. Lu Deyin pressed his index finger on his mouth and begged in a low voice: "My elder brother said: You wake him up when you come back. He is too tired, and he falls asleep when he comes back. Brother Zhang Li, can you let my elder brother sleep for a while!"

Zhang Li said: "Don't worry! Let him sleep! Anyway, all the Tartars have been destroyed, just keep a close eye on the living."

Lu Deyin looked at Zhang Li gratefully: "Brother Zhang Li, my brother also said: If the Tartars are eliminated today, if it is still early, we have to leave. He also said that we must not leave quickly. Let us kill two sheep and make more dry food."

After hearing this, Zhang Li happily replied: "No problem! I'll kill sheep right away. I haven't eaten mutton for a long time! By the way, Brother Yin, can you tell your elder brother? The leader is quite difficult to speak. He has a lot of knowledge and asks him to change the word. Don't say it was what I proposed. We are here, your words are effective!"

"Okay! I just said I mentioned it, and I also felt that the leader was difficult to speak." Lu Deyin didn't realize that he was robbed by Zhang Li.

Zhang Ping'an woke up until he was at noon and shouted to the yard: "Chen Poe, Li Chen and the others are going to exchange for Zhang Li and the others? I have silver, how are the dry food ready!"

Lu Deyin rushed into Zhang Ping'an's room in the north room and shouted happily: "Brother, you are awake! Brother Zhang Li and Hu Ming and others are back, bringing back five Tartar heads and arresting a living."

Zhang Ping'an was overjoyed: "This is so great! Such a great thing, why don't you wake me up? Take me to see!" Zhang Ping'an rushed out of the door quickly and saw Zhang Li walking towards the north room from the kitchen of the east room with a large pot of steaming mutton.

Zhang Ping'an raised his thumb and praised: "In ancient times, Guan Yu killed Hua Xiong with warm wine. Today, he will capture the bandits in the Ming Dynasty! How happy! How powerful!"

Zhang Li was a little embarrassed by Zhang Ping'an's praise: "Chief, we just caught a living person, and the other five were killed by the Chaharrot tribe."

"What's going on? But it's true to catch a Jurchen Tartar! Don't be too humble in being a person! Hahahahaha..., let's dig out the Tartars' bottom first. It's still the same rule, I'll ask you!"

While they said, they walked towards the west room of Guan Tartars; Zhang Ping'an went into the room and looked at the Jurchen Tartars who were spread out on the ground, and looked at his bloody hands tied to his chest: "It seems that he knows the rules, so I won't talk nonsense. Tell him, if he is not honest, I will not ask him and kill his brother directly! Start!"

"Chief, you haven't asked yet, how do you know he has a brother?"

"What did you call the thing below you?"

"Call birds, dicks, dicks, etc."

"His second brother, what's your eldest brother? Let's talk about brothers later, let's ask him now."

"What's the name?" Zhang Ping'an asked.

"Yargan!"

Zhang Ping'an began to curse secretly: "You think I don't understand Sichuan dialect, and I'll do it! I despise you!" (Zhang Ping'an actually misunderstood. Manchu Yaergan means real and thick. Sichuan dialect: Yaer is the second man's meaning)

"Why are you okay when others were killed?" Yargan took them to the Chaharrot tribe in Mongolia to send gifts and letters. As a result, the Chaharrot tribe in Mongolia was closely related to Lin Dankhan of the Golden Family, and did not like Nurhaci. He killed the messenger and told him about the news.

Zhang Ping'an nodded and said, "It's really time to let him go back and report the message to the old slave."

Seeing Yaergan's begging eyes, Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "But compared to our safety, reporting the message to the old slave is a trivial matter! It's not easy for him, so don't be too bloody. Remove his clothes, block them, and tie them outside the yard. If you haven't died for an hour, let him go. Okay, finish this work and let us have a meal!"

Yaergan was less than half a stick of incense outside the yard, and there was no sound. Zhang Ping'an nodded, and Zhang Li cut off his head with a knife. Zhang Ping'an turned around and was about to enter the yard when he heard Lu Deyin say, "Brother, just now, Brother Zhang Li said: It's difficult for you to say the leader, can you change the title?"

Zhang Ping'an looked at Lu Deyin, then looked at Zhang Li, and smiled: "Nothing is the big deal! Let's do it, you usually call me the boss! In formal occasions, you should call me the leader."

Lu Deyin didn't give up: "You are much smaller than Brother Zhang Li and the others!"

Zhang Ping'an began to squint his eyes and asked, "Who do you want to be the boss?"

Zhang Li felt that it was not Yaergan in the snow outside the yard, but he seemed to be himself. Zhang Li was about to cry: "Superior, boss. This is really not what I mean! Brother Yin must have misunderstood. None of us wants to be the boss! Except for you, who dares to do it!"

Zhang Li sighed inwardly: "There are no fools in this world! I'll stop fooling me in the future!"

Zhang Ping'an seemed to be in a good mood: "It's okay! You can call me the boss in the future! If you are not satisfied, just change to someone you are satisfied with! Hahahahaha..." Zhang Li's heart was even more upset at this time. Zhang Ping'an wanted to pat Zhang Li on the shoulder, but unfortunately he was too short.

He had to pat Zhang Li on the back: "I know, I know, I just said that. Let's go and have a meal. I will arrange for the afternoon to go."

"Boss, you and Brother Deyin go first, I'll call Chen Pi and the others to have a meal!" Zhang Ping'an nodded; he knew that Zhang Li was going to connect and convey the highest instructions.

After entering the house, Zhang Ping'an asked Lu Deyin: "Women, children are fine! Is there any inconvenient walking?"

"There are two elder sisters who are very sick! They can no longer leave. Three of the eight children are sick, and the little girl who was harmed by the Tartars is probably not going to be able to do it, and her whole body is very hot. The other two children should be better, and they are also having fever." Lu Deyin replied.

"Look at my elder sister, who can manage the affairs of my elder sister?"

"It seems that the sister-in-law named Yang Erhua's words work, and the other sisters and sister-in-law listen to her."

"Okay! Let Yang Erhua eat with us later. I will explain our way and arrangements during the meal!"

After a while, Chen Pang, Zhang Li and the other seven walked into the room. Zhang Ping'an said, "Do Yin, go, Yang Erhua called me to eat with us; don't look at me like this, I know this is not in line with the rules, but we are in a hurry, so we can only arrange the opening plan while eating. Wu Tianxing, you eat first, and peel some willow bark and birch bark to make soup after eating. I set a rule now. We are running for life now. If you want to save your life, everyone must unite. Put the useless custom aside first." Zhang Ping'an thought to himself: Men and women are inequality! Nothing big things will take for a long time! (In this era, men and women eat different tables. The main reason is that women have no status.)

After a while, Lu Deyin called Yang Erhua in. Zhang Ping'an's eyes lit up. Yang Erhua stood in a room full of male aura. Although her red face was not covered with makeup, it exuded the unique charm of mature women. Zhang Ping'an looked at the hypocritical and impulsive brothers; with a gentle glance, everyone immediately showed great hatred for mutton and hurriedly stuffed them into their mouths.

Zhang Ping'an pointed to the seat beside him: "Sister Yang, don't be embarrassed to sit here. I have something to tell you. Everyone listen to my arrangements while eating to save time."

Zhang Ping'an saw Yang Erhua pick up the mutton and stuttered, reminding her: "Sister Yang, eat quickly, we have a lot of things to do! Let me talk about my arrangements below, and I will mention any suggestions when I finish talking."

Zhang Ping'an left the mutton and saw everyone stopping to eat. He was following his instructions and waved his hand gently: "Everyone continue eating, I said, you eat yours. I arranged this way: First, let's go today, and no one of the women and children will be abandoned! Even if they die on the road, they cannot die here! Second, we go north and there are too much food, so we will be transported in two or three times. Women, children must go to my camp today, where Ludeyin knows. The food can be placed in the distance.

Here, the 50-mile eagle mouth. The head of the Tartars is placed on the tree at the geek mouth. Third, Chen Pow and I set out to pick up the other two children in the afternoon. Brother Chen Pow had to ask you to prepare 60 kilograms of white flour for me. Finally, we met at my camp. Zhang Li and Li Chen were responsible for transportation here, and Lu Deyin led the way. The eldest sister of the Yang family and other elder sisters were responsible for taking care of the sick women, the children and counting the items. After the opening, a fire was burned here. Do you have anything to add? No, prepare to work after eating!"
