Zhang Han didn't care about the nobility and bloodline, and the people of later generations would not only not respect the so-called bloodline, but would be vaguely hostile on the contrary. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 But in this era, the values are different from those of hundreds of years later, the royal family, the nobility, the noble bloodline, these things have a great influence on ordinary people, Zhang Han noticed that when Batel saluted, not only the captives and peasants widened, but also his subordinates were a little dumbfounded, and even Kong Minxing, whose face had always been calm, was a little excited.

The Ming Dynasty and the Northern Captives have been fighting for more than 200 years, and this may be the first Mongolian Taiji to bow to the ordinary military attachés of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Han suppressed his excitement and said with a smile: "Battelltaiji has something to say, we used to eat mutton in a pot, so there is no need to pay too much attention to red tape." ”

Battle sighed, his mood is not complicated, but the situation is stronger than people, although the five places have not been seriously harassed because of the friendly relationship with Yusheng, but every day there are fleeing herdsmen coming, they are almost barehanded, only riding horses that straddle down, no felt bags and no herds, such shepherds are not as good as the beggars of the Han people, and the five places are not able to accept too many herdsmen, so they can only watch them cry and leave, if they can't find a place to shelter, it is difficult for these herdsmen to survive this winter, The Mongols did not have many dingkou, and the current losses were enough to make people feel sad.

"Xi Lingse found us," Seeing that Zhang Han had no intention of talking secretly, Battle had to say bluntly: "We don't want to fight, let's restore the original good relationship between the trade alliance." ”

"It's you who do it, and it's you who don't want to fight." Zhang Han said directly: "There is no such cheap thing. ”

When it comes to business, Zhang Han didn't mean to be polite at all, he directly told Battle to understand one point: old friendships are useless, and the person in front of him has the most basic quality of a hero, that is, he has an iron heart in major matters.

"Of course, it's good for us to get started." Battle couldn't help but retort: "But it's you who go to the grassland to build a fort." ”

"That's why you're threatening the caravan's safety." Zhang Han replied first, and then couldn't help but say: "Battle, it's useless for you to have a verbal dispute with me like this." Let me teach you a word, the truth is within the range of the artillery, although the words are ugly, but if we did not repel your attack last year, it is we who seek peace. ”

Both of them answered each other in Mongolian, and there were many people around them who could understand and many who couldn't, and those who understood were interpreting in a whisper, and when they heard Zhang Han's last sentence, everyone showed a knowing smile on their faces.

Battle first showed some signs of anger, and then was persuaded by Zhang Han's last sentence that the Mongols were actually in awe of power, and if they were strong, they would surrender, and if they were weak, they would bully and slaughter, and he understood Zhang Han's words very well.

"Okay," Bartre said, "I'm here to sue for peace, and Xi Ling Setaiji means that except for Qingcheng and Banshengdi, the places occupied by Heyusheng now can be owned by you." In the future, the two sides will be friendly and trade with each other, and the Mongols and Han people can get along amicably, and everyone will live in harmony on the grassland. ”

"I'm sorry." Zhang Han said: "I can't agree. ”

"Why?" "We have ceded thousands of miles of pasture," exclaimed Battle, "and how many shepherds have lost their homes, and we have no way to retreat more." ”

This condition must be much more generous than the last time Zhao and Rong came over, and it is also the result of the comparison of forces between the two sides. Now that the set of departments and Mobei have not been fully mobilized, Tobok and others have been crossed, and the five departments have lost their backbone because of the death of Namur Taiji, and they do not have much combat power, Xi Lingse's situation must be extremely embarrassing, otherwise he would not be in a hurry to seek peace.

Of course, it may also be another direction, that is, Xi Lingse and others are making a dying struggle, and the current summing is just confusing themselves.

"Battle, you go back and tell Xi Lingse," Zhang Han said with a smile, "Either he disbands his troops and comes to ask me for his guilt and waits for me to fall, or I wait for his army to come to battle." ”

"Okay." Battle put on his hat and changed his face to a solemn expression: "Lord Zhang, maybe we will also meet each other, and you don't have to show mercy when the time comes." ”

"No, I will." Zhang Han still had a devilish smile on his face: "There are not many old friends. ”

This was a sign of great confidence, which made Battle's face even more uncomfortable, and he bowed down, and turned his horse away to the strange cries of the chasseurs.

"Wen Lan," Kong Minxing said a little puzzled: "Actually, with the current situation, this condition is not bad, and you can save a lot of military spending." ”

"Xi Lingse, he wants to deceive ghosts." Zhang Han laughed and said, "Believe it or not, he is now gathering people everywhere, trying to fight back all the way and get a chance to breathe." When he found out that the Karaqin tribe would not send troops, you see, his face would definitely be very bright. ”

……

When Battle brought the news back, Xi Lingse was indeed extremely depressed.

The faces of Baiyin Taiji and Batu Taiji and the others behind him couldn't see anywhere, and they realized at this time that He Yusheng's appetite was much greater than they imagined.

They were on a hill, an extension of the Daqingshan Mountains, and not far from their feet was the Erlong River, which would have been the Zhangjiakou of Xuanfu or the fortified area of Jizhen...... Obviously, this is the territory of the Karaqin Tribe.

A little further east is the territory of Duoyanwei, that is, the nomadic place of the Uliangha people, who have turned from a complete tribe into a loose alliance, and even many Uliangha people operate in the territory of the Karaqin people, becoming the source of the Uliangha people of the Karaqin tribe, and gradually assimilated by the Karaqin.

Xi Lingse pointed to the pastures and felt bags not far away, and said thoughtfully: "The Karaqin Department is much richer than our Tumut." ”

"yes." Taiji Shanba agreed: "Along the way, most of the felt bags are in good condition, the herds are fat and strong, the shepherds are neatly dressed, and when they enter the felt bags, there are many utensils for life. It seems that people say that Karaqin has the greatest light in the exchange with the Ming Dynasty, which should be correct. ”

"In the past two years, we have been fighting with Zhang Han," Ombu Chu bluffed Ertaiji indignantly: "Baihong Dataiji has been trading here, in addition to He Yusheng, they also have the horse market and small merchants of the Ming Kingdom, our people are gnawing sand, but they are rich and flowing oil. ”

"Don't say that." Xi Lingse said with a displeased face: "We are here to ask for help." ”

The Taiji in front of him are all powerful Taiji with more than 5,000 dings, Tumut's Dingkou has been losing, internal division and unfavorable wars, now Xi Lingse has only more than 60,000 Dingkou, and there are many teenagers and old people, the combat effectiveness is very limited, and even adult males are mostly ordinary herdsmen, not because they can ride horses and shoot arrows, they can't be regarded as strong warriors, in fact, the herdsmen can fight a dozen battles with the wind, When there are many people, it can form a huge oppression on the infantry-based Ming Dynasty, and that's it.

He Yusheng's record on the grassland clearly illustrates this point, and it can be regarded as removing the powerful painting skin of Mongolia, so that Xi Lingse and others have a clear estimate of the strength at hand.

Don't look at Zhou Yao with only 3,000 lancers, Xi Lingse has more than 8,000 people in armor, of which only 3,000 can be called elite, the strength of the two sides is about the same, if Zhou Yao intends to fight north, it is estimated that Xi Lingse may not be able to stop even these 3,000 people, and there are two soldiers and horses with Yusheng.

What Tumut can do now is to harass the infantry led by Liang Xing with light cavalry, and use the main force to fight against the harassing cavalry in the north, and for Zhou Yao's department, what he can do is to exchange the lives of the herdsmen for time and space, that's all.

If there is no strong foreign aid to help, Xi Lingse feels that he will not be able to support it.

Under the blue sky and white clouds are continuous felt bags, the sheep on the ground are like white clouds in the sky, and the shepherds holding long poles or horse poles are driving the sheep and horses lightly, such a scene is familiar and unfamiliar, and Xi Lingse suddenly feels a little like crying.

The expressions on all Taiji's faces are similar to Xi Ling's, they are like farmers who have been robbed of their homes, and they are also like little daughters-in-law who have been bullied by their in-laws, and the expressions on everyone's faces are a mixture of grievance and anger.

Baiyin Taiji finally couldn't help but say: "Zhang Han is too bullying. ”

"Robbers, bandits."

"No, it's a bunch of horse thieves, it's that they're more fierce than horse thieves."

"Immortal God, do you want that unrighteous murderer to act on the grassland?"

A group of Taiji couldn't help but complain.

"Well, don't learn like a woman." Lao Taiji Batar is an old man who followed Altan Khan when he was a teenager, and has experienced the famous siege of the Ming Jingshi, and he is still a little arrogant in his heart, he can't help but say: "We Mongolians are not self-reliant and self-reliant, of course we will be bullied by others, our ancestors have also destroyed countless countries, and everything at the moment can only be the fate of the Han people." ”

Old Taiji was also lacking in confidence in the end, and his walnut-like face showed a deep feeling of helplessness.

"It's coming, Baihong Dataiji is here."

The Tang Horse, which was being scouted in the distance, returned quickly, and people saw smoke and dust billowing up on the distant horizon, Xi Lingse was in great spirits, and said to the left and right: "As long as we persuade Baihong Dataiji to continue to support us, and with the support of Tushetu Khan and Huoluo Chijinong, we can still fight." ”

"Yes, Jinong."

Xi Lingse has established himself as Jinong, he has no way to call him Khan, many people will be dissatisfied, but he claims that Jinong has nothing, and everyone is not dissatisfied.

Jinong is the deputy Khan, the deputy of the Great Khan, when Dayan Khan divided the right wing of 30,000 households, Tumut was given to Altan Khan, Ordos Department and Yongshebu Department, that is, Karaqin and Asut and other departments were divided into Jinong, is the Khan's deputy.
