Dong Yongzhen asked, "What did he say?" ”

The soldier who knew Mongolian translated it, and Dong Yongzhen laughed: "We are not envoys, we are just two little soldiers, and we can't be the master at all." You come with me! ”

As he spoke, he turned around and took Nari Su to Liu Ruozai's horse.

Although Ri Su couldn't tell what the color of the Ming Dynasty's official robe and the pattern on it represented, he looked at Liu Ruozai's expression and bearing, and then looked at his demeanor surrounded by everyone in the middle, and knew that this person must be a big official of the Ming Kingdom, and he should also be the person in charge of this time.

On that day, Su saluted respectfully, and then repeated what he had just said.

Liu Ruozai smiled slightly, and said secretly in his heart: He is a person who knows things.

He glanced at Nari Su and found that the old man's eyes were a little frightened, Liu Ruozai was slightly stunned at first, and then understood in his heart what he was afraid of. He sighed secretly in his heart, smiled, and said, "Don't worry, we're not here to kill people." There is no need to panic, there is no need to flee, we will not kill them. You lead the way, and the official will be rewarded. ”

After the Mongolian soldier translated, Nari Su hurriedly thanked him. 、

Then Liu Ruozai asked Na Ri Su to go with him and continue to move forward, and the soldier who acted as a translator was also left behind by him, and he still had a lot to ask Na Ri Su.

Liu Ruozai talked to Na Risu about some gossip, asking about the customs and customs of the Chahar Department and the trivial matters of the people's lives. For example, is the grass here fertile? How does it compare to the area around Naturalization City? Has life changed for the better or for the worse since coming here? If you can't live now, how is your life?

It's all trivial things that don't seem to matter, but in fact, a lot of things can be deduced from these small things. These are not sensitive or evasive questions, and Su will answer them one by one.

After talking for a while, Liu Ruozai suddenly asked, "I heard that a while ago, some people came to the Jin Kingdom in the east, right?" ”

His expression was indifferent, and his tone was also very light, but the content of his words made Su Dian shocked.

Who else is coming from the east?

He didn't want to answer but didn't dare not answer, so he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and said, "My lord, what do you mean by Dongbianer?" ”

Liu Ruoran didn't want to let him go, so he pointed out straightforwardly: "Jiannu, is there anyone coming?" ”

That day, Su's heart trembled fiercely, a layer of cold sweat oozed from his back, he raised his head, just came into contact with Liu Ruozai's gaze, and found that the eyes of this Ming Dynasty nobleman were cold. That day Su secretly sighed in his heart, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, he said in a low voice: "I don't know if anyone from the east is coming?" Did Jiannu send anyone? I just heard that some people with braided hair came here a few days ago. ”

"How are they treated?"

Liu Ruozai did not relax, and pressed step by step, and then asked again.

Since Su had already spoken, he didn't care about anything else, it was a bit of a broken jar. He whispered: "I heard that it was the Minister of Special Affairs, Ilden Linger, who was personally accompanied. ”

The Minister of Special Affairs is an official position appointed by Lin Dan Khan to govern a certain number of thousands of households, and his power is very heavy. For example, the Silhutaiji, who defected to Nurhachi with thousands of tribesmen, was once appointed by Lin Dan Khan as the special minister in charge of 30,000 households on the left wing.

At this time, the Chahar Department was no longer the Chahar Department of a few years ago, and when it withdrew westward for the first time, there were many vassal tribes of the Chahar Department who remained in the previous territory, and now they have basically been annexed by the Houjin. The second westward retreat, that is, the time when they came to Dacaotan from Guihua City, due to the hasty retreat, seventy or eighty percent of the people did not follow, but were scattered in the large area where the escape passed.

After crossing the Yellow River to the west, due to the lack of food, many people died, and although there are still tens of thousands of people in the Chahar Department on the big grass beach, I am afraid that it is less than 5% of the peak period.

Now the special minister of the Chahar Ministry is basically equivalent to the prime minister.

Accompanied by the Minister of Extraordinary Affairs in person, the treatment that Jiannu received was quite not low!

Liu Ruozai felt a little gloomy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, but continued to talk and laugh with Nari Su.

The further you go, the denser it becomes, and you can see herders grazing cattle and sheep from time to time. In the distance, you can also see a number of tents gathered together, which are herdsmen's settlements, and each settlement represents a tribe here.

It's just that along the way, the scale of the tribes I saw was not large.

Dong Ce secretly speculated that either those big tribes were in the more core area, or the big tribes with a little strength had already left at this time.

Dong Ce feels that the latter is more likely.

Perhaps it was because they saw their own people by their side and knew that these Ming soldiers had no malicious intentions, so the herdsmen were not very flustered, and some people were still curious to look there. However, the most rewarding thing is the hateful eyes. Speaking of which, although there is a blood feud between Houjin and Lin Dan Khan, in fact, although Lin Dan Khan and the Ming Dynasty had a sweet period, in the years before his death, the relationship with the Ming Dynasty was also quite bad.

When Lin Dan Khan moved west for the first time, Hou Jin followed behind his ass and beat him, and at that time, the border army of the Ming Dynasty not only did not help Lin Dan Khan, but cooperated with Hou Jin in secret, and it was very dark against Lin Dan Khan several times. After Lin Dan Khan left Hohhot and crossed the Yellow River to the west, when he arrived at the border of Ningxia Town, a town in Gansu Province of the Ming Dynasty, the Chahar Department at this time was short of food, clothing, hunger and cold, and the Chahar people wanted to trade with the Ming Dynasty, but they were rejected by the border generals of the Ming Dynasty.

Since he couldn't do business seriously, he had to rob it, so it was another big chaos. In the sixth year of Chongzhen and the seventh year of Chongzhen, Lin Danhan repeatedly committed border crimes, fought with Ningxia Town, Gansu Town, and even fought with Hong Chengchou, many people died on both sides, the relationship deteriorated sharply, and the hatred rose sharply.

Many of these Mongolian herdsmen had been injured or killed in the war with the Han Chinese, and it was normal for them to have such feelings of hatred and hostility. They suffered a lot of casualties, and the border army of the Ming Dynasty was not seriously damaged? On the way here, Dong Ce heard Liu Daqi say that in the past two years, Gansu Town has only lost more than 2,000 soldiers under the Chahar Department!

How many people are there in Gansu Town?

The grassland occupied by the Chahar Department was very large, and it took two hours to advance before reaching the grassland of the Chahar Ministry.

Although these Mongols on the Great Grass Beach are now collectively referred to as the Chahar Tribe, in fact this statement is incorrect, and the correct statement should be the Chahar Tribe, and their vassal tribes.

The outer ones are all vassal tribes, and the Chahar occupy the core and the most fertile pasture.

According to Narisu, there is at least a hundred miles to go from here to the sweat tent. It was here that Liu Ruozai and the others finally met the people sent by the Chahar Ministry to greet them.

From a distance, Dong Ce saw a group of cavalry waiting in front, and this group of cavalry was about 200 people.

A few cavalrymen from the opposite team came over, and shouted a few words loudly when they got closer, Liu Ruozai asked, "What did they say?" ”

That day Su hurriedly said: "They said that they heard that a distinguished envoy of the Ming Dynasty had arrived, and the Empress Dowager Nangsang specially sent Wuyunna Fujin to greet her. ”

"Oh?" As soon as he heard that it was Wuyun Na Fujin, Liu Ruozai's face immediately became a little gloomy, and the haze in his heart became heavier. The reason why he behaved like this was not because the other party was a woman. Liu Ruozai had already done a lot of homework before he came, and knew that in the Chahar Department, the status of these widows of Lin Dan Khan was not low, and each of them had a lot of people and considerable troops in their hands. Sending a fortune to greet him, in terms of his specifications, is no lower than sending other high-level nobles to greet him.
