Chapter 549: Broken Arrow
A general under Ah Cheng shouted: "The Great Khan is dead, everyone put down their bows and arrows!" ”
As Tobok rode his horse and fled, he roared angrily: "Ah Cheng, why? ”
Ah Cheng didn't answer him, but shouted loudly: "Tobok, don't go back to the sweat tent, that's sending him to death." ”
Tobok ignored it, many of the Great Khan's guards fled with this Taiji, of course they would not flee to the direction of the Khan tent, the Khan was already dead, and Ah Cheng on the other side of the Khan tent must have made arrangements, and of course they would be sent to death when they went back.
Ah Cheng jumped off the horse, picked up the body of the Great Khan with both hands, looked around left and right, and there were frightened faces in his eyes, today these people are all tribesmen of the Aben tribe, and they have followed him for many years, but no matter what, shooting the Great Khan still touched the bottom line of the Mongols' hearts, and their panic is inevitable.
Tabu Nang's face was also pale, although it was his own hand, but his eyes did not dare to face the sweat, and his eyes kept dodging.
Ah Cheng was satisfied with the candidate he had chosen, Tabu Nang was a good man with a strong will and a particularly strong sense of honor among the Mongols, and then encouraged him a little, for example, the Great Khan wanted to cede the territory occupied by He Yusheng and reopen peace talks with Zhang Han...... Ah Cheng just nodded a few words, and Tabu Nang was willing to join in to cooperate with the matter, and sure enough, he really shot the Great Khan.
Ah Cheng wanted to transfer Tabu Nang to his side before, but at this time he changed his mind, and he said to Tabu Nang: "You take people to continue patrolling here, there has just been a lot of movement here, don't let the people of Ming know our reality for the time being." ”
Tabu's face turned back, he nodded in response, and led his group forward.
Ah Cheng put the body of the Great Khan across his chest, and the arrow shot very deeply, so the Great Khan died without suffering anything, Ah Cheng looked down at the face of the Great Khan from time to time, the face of the deceased still had some blood, and it did not become the unique dead gray of the dead, and the arrow wound in the neck was still dripping with blood, Ah Cheng looked at the ground and saw blood dripping from the tip of the grass.
He let out a sigh, this is the blood of the descendants of the Golden Family.
In the past, the descendants of Genghis Khan, who were incomparably noble and honorable, died without bloodshed, even if they died. And today, the noble blood of the Great Khan was sprinkled all over the earth, and Ah Cheng suddenly burst into tears when he thought of this.
When Ah Cheng and the others returned to the sweat tent, someone had already sent the news back, and all the Taiji were there, and people first didn't believe it after hearing the news, and then there was an uproar.
No one thought that the Great Khan would go out with hundreds of armored soldiers and die like this?
It wasn't until Ah Cheng dismounted with the body of Da Khan that people accepted the reality, and then they looked at each other, the things in front of them were strange and sudden, and everyone's brains were blank.
Ah Cheng looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The Great Khan rescued Xiao Taiji's heart, riding a horse in the forefront, we encountered with Heyusheng's iron cavalry, and there were also good shooters among the enemies, an arrow came over, and hit the neck of the Great Khan, we were caught off guard, and there was no way to save the life of the Great Khan......"
Some people in the crowd cried, and many herdsmen and Jiaqi burst into tears.
It is a fact that morale is low, and it is also a fact that people do not want to fight anymore, but no one thought that the Great Khan of the Mongols would die here, and that it was killed by the Han Chinese!
It's a shame, and it's a shame that can't be washed away!
Now the body of the Great Khan was held in front of everyone's eyes, and the wound was still bloody, and a few drops of blood spilled from his neck, flowing down the shaft of the arrow for a while, and then dripping to the ground, on the wet grass.
Looking at a few drops of blood on the ground, people suddenly went berserk.
Bai Hong Dataiji endured his grief and indignation and said, "What about Tobok? He is responsible for the safety of the Great Khan, why was the Great Khan shot by the Ming people, but he is gone? ”
Ah Cheng's face remained unchanged and said: "Tobok may feel ashamed, first pursued those Ming cavalry, and then I saw him go west. ”
Bai Hong Da Taiji changed color and said, "What are these words? How can this be true? ”
At this time, Gurusi pulled Bai Hong Dataiji and signaled that he didn't need to say more.
All the Taiji who were present saw that Nemuge led a large number of armored cavalry to rush over, at least more than 2,000 cavalry, and the cavalry of the brigade made a rumbling sound when galloping, and the cavalry rushed like a tide, dispersing some of the Great Khan's guards around the sweat tent, and escorting Ah Cheng and others.
"Okay, I see." Bai Hongda's feelings have changed this time, Bu Shitu Khan is afraid that he will be killed by his own people, Tobok will either run away or be killed, the so-called being killed by cuirassiers or ironclad cavalry is just an excuse to cover up his shame.
Bai Hong Da Taiji sneered: "The Great Khan is dead, and Omu Buhong is in Zhang Han's hands, what is Ah Cheng Taiji's next step?" ”
Ah Cheng said: "At present, the war is the most important, when Xi Lingsetaiji temporarily commands my Tumut department, and when the war is over and the Omubu Hongtaiji is rescued, he should inherit the position of the Great Khan." ”
The position of Tumut Khan has been fought for decades, and as soon as Ah Cheng's words came out, there was an uproar all around!
The Taiji who were loyal to the Bu Shitu family were all red-eyed, but all around were Ah Cheng and Xi Lingse's people, the guards of the Great Khan were either taken away by Tobok, or they had just been dispersed, and many Taiji did not bring soldiers and horses, and they had no strength to compete with Ah Cheng and the others in a hurry.
Bai Hong Da Taiji said: "What if Omu Buhong dies? ”
Ah Cheng said quietly: "The Great Khan has several sons, and we will choose the longest one." ”
Bai Hong Da Taiji said: "Is Ah Cheng Taiji willing to swear?" ”
Ah Cheng was silent, and asked someone to take out an arrow, he raised the arrow high, and then said loudly: "I, Ah Cheng, swear here, that in the future, I will definitely support the son of Bu Shitu Khan to inherit the throne of the Great Khan, if this oath is violated, it will be like this arrow!" ”
With such an oath, Zhu Taiji's face looked better, and Bai Hong Da Taiji turned to look at Xi Lingse, who couldn't hide his smug face, and said, "Xi Lingse Taiji is willing to swear?" ”
Xi Lingse took a sign and said, "What swear do you want me to make in this matter?" ”
Bai Hong Da Taiji said: "If Xi Ling Se Taiji does not take over, of course don't swear, if you want to temporarily unify the territory of the Murt Department, of course you have to swear." ”
Xi Ling said angrily: "Am I not a descendant of Altan Khan, so I am not qualified to be a Great Khan?" ”
As soon as the sentence came out, Zhutaiji was in an uproar.
Bai Hong Da Taiji sneered and said, "If this is the case, our Karaqin Department will not be involved in this matter, and I will lead all the Taiji tribes to leave this place." ”
Ah Cheng stepped forward and said to Xi Lingse: "Please Taiji swear!" ”
There was obvious reproach in Ah Cheng's eyes, the development of today's events was expected in advance, and Xi Lingse also promised to swear an oath with Ah Cheng as evidence, but when the matter came, he said such a thing, and the dissatisfaction in Ah Cheng's eyes was also very obvious.
Xi Lingse was helpless, so he had to ask people to take arrows, break them in two, and swear an oath with Ah Cheng.
The Mongols generally take vows very seriously, and they despise those who break their oaths, and the two Taiji swear one after another, and the faces of those present look much better.
Ah Cheng said to Bai Hong Da Taiji: "The Great Khan was unfortunately killed, we should make a nervous posture, and it is best to have confrontation and discord between the various ministries, so that Zhang Han and they must think that we are going to have civil strife, and He Yusheng may send troops to fight with us in advance." To tell the truth, it is useless to encircle it like this, all the departments dare not risk the death of tens of thousands of people to attack the military fort, it is useless to fight those military platform side piers, it is just a lot of dead people in vain, and now the last chance is to use the death of the Great Khan to lure and Yusheng to send troops to fight with us! ”
Ah Cheng's eyes were full of fanaticism, Bai Hong Dataiji was shocked by him, and he couldn't speak for a while, Geng Ge no longer had that arrogant appearance, he just shook his head and said: "Crazy, just crazy." ”
"What if you're not crazy?" Ah Cheng roared: "All Taiji are here, today we will take a step back, and next year we will build the military fort with Yusheng all the way to Qingcheng and the major pastures, what will you do then?" ”
Bai Hong Da Taiji said: "If we make such an article about the death of the Great Khan, where will we put our faces?" ”
Ah Cheng sneered: "We have long lost our face, Lin Dan Khan was beaten by the Jianzhou Ministry, but the Jianzhou Ministry has already established itself as a country, Nuerhachi can eliminate more than 100,000 Ming border troops in a war, and the eastern ministries are not the opponents of the Jianzhou Ministry, what about us?" More than 100,000 people, who can't beat less than 10,000 Ming businessmen, where is our face? ”
Ah Cheng looked at all Taiji and roared, "Where are everyone's faces? ”
Bai Hong Da Taiji nodded and said, "If you can fight, it will naturally be excellent." However, if He Yusheng is not fooled this time, our departments will have to withdraw first. ”
A group of Taiji in Mobei discussed with each other in a low voice for a while, and also said: "We have the same meaning as Baihong Dataiji, if He Yusheng is still not fooled, we will also withdraw from the army."
There are more than a dozen Taiji in the Tumut Department who are close to Bu Shitu Khan, and at this time, everyone has a cold face, and no one makes a sound.
Ah Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most worried about was that there would be a break today, don't look at him asking Nemuge to bring thousands of armor to ride, that is to protect his own safety, let him use a knife against these Taiji, kill so many Taiji of various departments, Ah Cheng didn't dare at all.
If he really did this, the hundreds of thousands of Mongols in front of him would immediately have civil strife!
Don't look at the various ministries and dare not fight tough battles, but if the Taiji of each department is really killed, those red-eyed herdsmen and armored horsemen will run to fight hard, and each Taiji has sons and nephews, and they will immediately recommend people to come out to retaliate.
The Taiji are not very afraid, Bai Hong Dataiji is forcing Ah Cheng and Xi Lingse to swear on the spot, this is also because each department has its own soldiers and horses, this is the confidence brought by strength, and it is also where they do not know the confidence of Ah Cheng and the two thousand cavalry at all.
Watching the Taiji leave one after another, Ah Cheng suddenly collapsed on the ground.
He has exhausted all his tricks, Bu Shitu Khan has decided to withdraw the army, he ordered Tabu Nang to shoot the Great Khan, and then cooperate with Xi Lingse, and then use the death of the Great Khan to induce He Yusheng to send troops, all the methods have been exhausted, and now what he wants is to be able to use the main force of Heyusheng to fight happily with hundreds of thousands of Mongols in this area!
