Chapter 929: Giving Back to the Other
If the leaders of the Horqin tribes, that is, their fathers or fathers, did not know the strength of the Ming Dynasty, then Hai Lanzhu, who had been living in the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty for a year at that time, knew it very clearly.
The establishment of the new army, the manufacture and equipping of new muskets and artillery, and the pacification of the rebellion in the southwest and southeast of the Ming Dynasty, etc., although Hai Lanzhu did not see these things, he listened to him from the mouth of Emperor Chongzhen from time to time, and realized the significance of these things to the Ming Dynasty from the emperor's joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
Just from the various changes that have taken place in the Forbidden City, as well as the changes that have occurred around her and the other concubines, she can see that the national situation of the Ming Dynasty is going up day by day.
The new things on the side of the Ming Dynasty, such as muskets, artillery, binoculars, four-wheeled carriages, and hard and flat cement roads, etc., emerged in an endless stream, and what could be produced in the wilderness of Horqin, and what could the Jurchens produce in the so-called post-Jin country? !
Therefore, at this time, seeing that Emperor Chongzhen, who was still full of warmth just now, turned his head and asked about Horqin's affairs, Hai Lanzhu's heart was gloomy, and he was afraid that what he had been worried about before would suddenly come, so he hurriedly turned around for Horqin's parents and relatives.
In Hai Lanzhu's heart, Horqin may be the most powerful among the various departments of Eastern Mongolia, but in front of the Ming Dynasty, it is at best the strength of a border town, or even the strength of a border town.
In such a situation of disparity in strength, following the Jurchens to fight the Ming Dynasty without knowing whether they are alive or dead, isn't this killing themselves by hitting stones with eggs?
Therefore, when Ulan Tuya unexpectedly received a special favor from Emperor Chongzhen, Hai Lanzhu also asked Manzhu Xili and the two Horqin entourages who were ordered to return to the grasslands around Horqin to find and bring back Ulan Tuya and Su Rina's relatives, and sent a message back.
In the message he brought back, Hai Lanzhu told his father Horqin Left-wing Beile Zhaisang that he was very good among the Beijing teachers of the Ming Dynasty and had received preferential treatment from the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and warned his father not to follow the Jurchens obsessively and make enemies of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens not only could not destroy the Ming Dynasty, but also were likely to be eliminated by the Ming Dynasty one day in the future, and how could Horqin survive by itself at that time.
The two Korqin guards who went north with Hai Lanzhu's message, one was called Haskan, and the other was a little younger called Agrabari.
These two men are warriors among the Korqin people, and they are both guards and followers who have arrived since he was a child.
Their relationship with Manzhu Xili is like the relationship between Ulan Tuya, Su Rina and their master, Hai Lanzhu.
Because Haskan and Agrabari both carried the official documents and waist cards issued by the Lifan Yuan when they went out of Sai to the north, they went out of Gubeikou smoothly along the way.
In the final analysis, they were actually sent by the emperor, so they not only successfully passed out of the Gubeikou, but also smoothly passed through the Rehe area and the Ulahada region, and finally crossed the West Lamulun River and the Narit River to the north, and returned to the pastureland of the Horqin left-wing Mongols north of Chaganhot.
After the Gelzhuergen Alliance, the pastureland of the Horqin Left Banner was divided to the north of Chaganhot.
Of course, it was summer when they arrived, and the Horqin Left Wing Mongolia at that time had already become the Horqin Left Banner.
And Hai Lanzhu's message was naturally smoothly brought into the hands of the owner of the Horqin Left Banner and Shuobeile Zhaisang.
At the same time, the return of Haskan and Agrabari also relieved Jaisan of his greatest living son, Mandrup.
Jaisan did not ask Haskan and Agrabarge to bring back any reply, neither in writing nor verbally.
However, he quickly released Ulan Tuya and Surina's family, and without any conditions, let them return to Daming with Haskan and Agrabari.
In the middle of August, Haskan and Agrabari returned to Gyeonggi via Gubeikou with two families of more than 10 Korqin Mongols from Saibei.
Emperor Chongzhen asked the Internal Affairs Office to give gold and silver and a mansion in Jingshi City according to the treatment of other imperial relatives of the concubines.
However, like the fathers and brothers of other ordinary concubines, these people were not given any titles.
But in order to allow them to live after coming to the Daming Jingshi, under the arrangement of Emperor Chongzhen, the elder brother of Yifei Ulan Tuya, Urtu Nashun, still gave a Jinyi Wei Qianhu position, and his younger brother Hu Legen was sent to the fifth cavalry section of the Huangming Zhongyi Lecture Hall in Tongzhou at the end of August.
As for Ning Concubine Su Rina's elder brother Na Risong and younger brother Bayas Gulang, according to the will of Emperor Chongzhen, they were arranged by Wang Chengen into the Internal Affairs Office, and after meeting and reuniting with Su Rina in Jingshi for a period of time, they left their old father, mother, wife and children to settle in Jingshi, and the two brothers were sent to work in Hengxing Company in Zhangjiakou.
Ulan Tuya and Su Rina's parents, brothers, and family members are just ordinary herdsmen under Beile Zhaisang, the owner of the Horqin Left Banner, and they are not very good at doing anything other than raising horses and grazing when they are on the Horqin grassland.
Even if Emperor Chongzhen intended to arrange it, he really couldn't find any suitable place for them.
I can only find the brothers who are of the right age, and arrange them to play a role in some places that need cronies.
After all, whether it is in the Jinyi Guard, or in the Internal Affairs Office, there were very few positions of the emperor's relatives before, and arranging a few of them can be regarded as a deterrent or restriction on the hills of some other factions.
Although several months have passed, Emperor Chongzhen still remembers all these things, including the situation when Hai Lanzhu asked Hasgan to bring a message to Zhaisang, and Emperor Chongzhen also knew about it from Hai Lanzhu afterwards.
And Emperor Chongzhen did not blame Hai Lanzhu for this.
It is normal for a daughter to ask someone to bring a message to her father.
Although Emperor Chongzhen was very annoyed by the serious problem of leaking air leaks and leaking secrets in the palace and the imperial court, he was not afraid of the Horqin people at all knowing the strength of the Ming Dynasty.
On the contrary, he was worried that the people of Horqin did not know the strength of the Ming Dynasty.
This time, he came to Chuxiu Palace, in addition to visiting and accompanying Concubine Lan, he also had a purpose, that is, to start from the Horqin left-wing Mongols to dig the foot of the Jin Kingdom after the captivity.
is similar to Huang Taiji's idea when he conquered the Ming Dynasty, and now Emperor Chongzhen's idea of conquering and eliminating the Jin State after the capture is also to start from both sides.
One side of it is in the direction of North Korea, and on the other side is in the direction of Mongolia.
Specifically, the direction of North Korea is the Fifth Route General Military Office and the Korean Servant Army in Dongjiang Town under the command of Anton Hou Mao Wenlong.
In the direction of Mongolia, it is the Guiyi King Burhatu and his Karaqin tribesmen, Kulun tribesmen, and the Horqin people imagined by Emperor Chongzhen.
Of course, these two directions are partial divisions, and the real killer is when the time is ripe, he personally leads the guards out of Shanhaiguan and goes straight to Shenyang after meeting with the army in Liaodong Town.
However, this last road, and the way to the final victory, must wait until the east and west wings of the Jin State have been disarmed, or after the arms have been cut off, before they can really be dispatched.
Huang Taiji, who was originally in history, once said: "Take Beijing as if cutting down a big tree, cut it from both sides first, and then the big tree will be its own servant." As soon as the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are exhausted, I will plunder all around, and Beijing will definitely be able to get it! ”
And now the Emperor Chongzhen from later generations happened to be impressed by this, because Huang Taiji said and did so, and it really worked.
Among them, the two sides mentioned by Huang Taiji also refer to the direction of North Korea and Mongolia.
However, in this life, North Korea took Hwang Tae-gil, but lost it again; In the Mongolian direction, now only the Horqin Four Divisions or the Horqin Four Banners remain.
The four departments of East and West Uzhumuqin, Zalut, and Zarat were resettled by them in the old land of the Haixi Jurchens in the upper reaches of the Songhua River.
As long as Emperor Chongzhen takes the four parts of Horqin from Huang Taiji's hands, then the fate that originally fell on the head of the Ming Dynasty in history will fall on the body of the Houjin State, and the fate of Emperor Chongzhen in history will also be destined to become the fate of his Huang Taiji.
Because after taking the fourth part of Horqin, it is not only equivalent to cutting off the arms of the Jurchens, but also cutting off the connection between the three major khans of Mobei Mongolia and the Jurchens, so that Huang Taiji can't hook up if he wants to.
Emperor Chongzhen's initial layout of Horqin, such as accepting Niu Juming's suggestion and marrying Hai Lanzhu from the Horqin grassland, was to wait for the day when he would be able to realize this strategic intent.
And this day is not far off.
Giving back to others in the way of others is the best way to take revenge.
