In western Mongolia, in the boundless steppe, a cavalry army is advancing. At the head of the procession was a civil servant with a knot. Needless to say, this team is the one that the Ming Dynasty sent to western Mongolia.

At this time, the envoy Ban Dian, who was walking in front, pointed to the front and said to Li Guo, the general who was guarding him: "After passing the front, we will reach the pasture range of the Heshuo Special Department. Be careful and don't be reckless! ”

When Li Guo heard this, he was a little depressed, I didn't do anything, so I was told not to be reckless, am I a reckless person?

Ban Dian may have seen what Li Guo was thinking, so he said to Li Guo: "Don't blame Li Guerrilla for being a little rude between the official's words, after all, this trip is related to whether the Hetao area can survive this winter, and whether my Ming can finally gain a foothold in the Hetao, we have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders!" ”

Feeling a little emotional, he turned his head, looked at the vast grassland in front of him and said: "I have already been on an envoy once before, and I have heard about the Heshuo Special Department before, so the most important thing about the success of this trip is the attitude of the Heshuo Special Ministry. ”

"Oh, the last general doesn't know anything about this western Mongolia, and I ask you to tell the last general about it, so that the last general can have a number in his heart." When Li Guo heard this, his attitude was also correct, and he immediately asked modestly.

Ban Dian couldn't help but nod when he heard this, he could see that this guerrilla who was born as a thief did have the overall situation in mind. Before, he abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, but now he focuses on the Hetao, which is really good.

Thinking like this, his attitude was a little kinder, and even less contemptuous of the literati for the warriors, and he said patiently: "The Heshute tribe is one of the four major tribes in the western Mongolian Oirat tribe, and it is the most powerful one, and its leader has always been the alliance leader of the Oirat department, and the alliance leader of this generation is Gushi Khan. ”

Speaking of this, his tone suddenly became a little more serious: "Don't underestimate this Gushi Khan, he can be said to be the most outstanding leader of Western Mongolia in recent years!" ”

"Oh, that's amazing?" When Li Guo heard this, he couldn't help but be very interested, and hurriedly asked. Even the guards around them pricked up their ears and listened.

Ban nodded solemnly and replied, "It's not very powerful, but very powerful!" He is the nineteenth grandson of Genghis Khan's brother Habtu Hasar, at the age of thirteen, he was brave and good at fighting, led his troops to defeat 10,000 enemies of the Gogar department, won the respect of his subordinates, and then when he was twenty-four years old, his biological mother Ahaihatun died, and he poured his family property, widely spread alms, for his mother's excess, but also won the support of the people. It was also in this year that the war broke out between the Oirat and the Khalkha Mongols, and it was he who stepped in and skillfully defused the battlefield, once again earning him great fame. ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his head and asked Li Guodao, "Do you know the reason why he is called Gushi Khan?" ”

"......" Li Guo was speechless, thinking to himself how could I possibly know about the Mongolian tribe so far away. But on the surface, he quickly and modestly admitted: "I don't know! ”

When Ban Dian heard this, he did not despise him at all, but immediately replied: "It is the prestige that he has accumulated continuously that has led him to give him the title of 'Great Teacher' at the age of twenty-four on behalf of the Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism, the Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism, and the leaders of the Khalkha Mongolian tribe. And this great teacher, transliterated into our Chinese is the beginning of the solid. His greatness can be seen from this. ”

"It's really amazing to have such a result at the age of twenty-four!" Li Guo nodded honestly and admitted, but as soon as he changed his words, he immediately added: "But the last general thinks that my Ming Emperor is even more powerful!" ”

When he said this, he spoke quickly, and immediately added: "You see that our Emperor Ming used to be only a vassal king, but after he unexpectedly ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, he quietly killed the powerful Wei Wei, and then recovered the Hetao, the most fertile land in the Yellow River Valley, and obtained the jade seal of the country that the previous emperors did not get, this is the will of heaven, and the Gushi Khan did not!" Also, the Ming Dynasty has been defeating Jianyu, but this year, it is the Ming soldiers who are pointing directly outside Shenyang, so it can be seen that the recovery of Liaodong is also just around the corner......"

Because of the reason for having a chat group, Li Guo was able to get closer to Emperor Chongzhen than others, and he received more holy graces than others. Therefore, he is very grateful to Emperor Chongzhen in his heart, and he usually pays more attention to Emperor Chongzhen's affairs than others. When he looked at the bandian, his head was slightly raised, as if the bandian represented the solid sweat at this time!

And the class listened, but in fact, he didn't completely agree with it in his heart. He did not deny that what Li Guo said was true, and it was indeed better than the previous emperors. However, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been several emperors who were attacked by the enemies of the Ming Dynasty under the city of Jingshi, so that the people of Gyeonggi suffered from military disasters? A bombastic Southern Barbarian easily gained the emperor's trust, causing such serious consequences. These things are also stains that the emperor can't erase!

Compared with the experience of Gushi Khan and himself, the Ming Emperor, it is natural that Gushi Khan is more powerful. Otherwise, why do you have to send your own envoy to win the understanding of Gushi Khan and reach a friendly relationship?

Of course, although he thought so in his heart, he would not be stupid enough to bring up these things to refute Li Guo's words on the surface. Finally, after Li Guo finished speaking, he nodded, pretended to be approving and said: "Although the fact is that my Emperor Ming is more powerful, but now I am about to go to the territory of Gushi Khan." As I have just said about his ability, I believe that Li Guerrilla should know it in his heart. ”

Speaking of this, his face became serious again, and he explained with an extremely serious attitude: "After coming into contact with the Heshuo Special Department, Li Guerrilla must remember what I just said. This mission can only succeed, not fail. Our lives are small, for the sake of my Ming Dynasty to gain a foothold in the Hetao, in order to complete our mission, even if we suffer some insults, we have to endure it, understand? ”

Li Guo listened to it and felt that it was wrong, but after all, he had not been guided by relevant parties, nor had he read much history, he was just a thief, so he couldn't remember that he represented Da Ming, if they insulted, wouldn't it be an insult to Da Ming, so he nodded a little depressed and agreed, everything should be focused on the overall situation.

Li Guo vaguely felt that probably the last time Bandian went to the Heshuo Special Department, he encountered bad hospitality, and now this time, I am afraid that he can't avoid it, so he deliberately explained himself!
