Chapter 575: Conquest of Mobei (6)

 Da'or'er (Wendu'er Khan) is located on the banks of the Onan River. It was once the original capital of the Mongol Khanate, and Genghis Khan proclaimed himself Khan here. It is also the birthplace and possible burial place of Genghis Khan. In order to commemorate him, later generations of the Mongolian Kingdom

Renamed this place Genghis City.

Chechen Khan Babu's tent was located here. In the Battle of Tokeda, he saw the opportunity early, saved half of his army, and fled back to Chechnya.

As soon as he returned to Da'or'er, he ordered people to inquire about the news. It was very bad. Tuxie Tuhan Chahun Dorji and his son were killed in the battle, and the Ming army captured the city of Kulun.

Before I had time to think carefully about what to do, another uninvited guest came. Milevalov, the envoy of the Rakshasa warlord Bashkov, came.

"Well, the Chinese have a saying, 'Night owls come into the house and come when they have nothing to do.'" Babu sighed, calling him Milevalov.

"Dear Chechen Khan, I bring you the respect of your friend Overseer Bashkov." Milevalov wore a Turkish-style mustache and spoke very politely.

"Tell me, what are you doing here?"

"Chechen Khan, we want to build an earthen house on the Seleng River for Russian hunters to shelter from the rain. As long as you agree, we can give you three hundred muskets."

"Earth house?"

Babu sneered, thought for a while and said: "I can agree to you building an 'earth house', but you must provide two thousand soldiers to help us fight."

Milevalov shrugged and said with Cossack cynicism: "We can only send 700 people at most, because Governor Bashkov only sent 700 soldiers to the Selen River."

Babu's face darkened. These Rakshasa ghosts, with their nice words, came to ask for the Khan's consent. The army has already been sent here, so what else are they asking for?

However, now that there are internal and external troubles, we really have no power to resist the Rakshasa people. Since we can't resist them, we might as well use them for our own purposes. So we ordered a banquet for Milevalov.

"Father Khan, are you really planning to borrow troops from the Rakshasa ghost? The Rakshasa ghost is greedy, so be careful." Mu Zhangmergen Chuhuer, the son of the Chechen Khan, was very worried.

Babu sighed and said feebly: "The most important thing right now is to repel the Ming army and protect the ancestral land. Although the Rakshasa ghosts have no good intentions, we can't control that much. The most we can do is pay taxes to them."

Yes. After the Turgut people voted for the Rakshasa ghosts, except for paying taxes, didn’t they still live the same life?"

Contrary to what many people imagine, in the process of Tsarist Russia's invasion to the east, there was both a brutal and bloody side and a gentle side.

They were underpopulated and tried every means to lure Mongolian herdsmen to leave their tribes and go to their occupied areas. They provided these fugitives with improved livestock breeds, food, clothing, and pasture, on the condition that they listened to them, paid taxes to them, and fought for them.
It was against this background that twenty years ago, the Mongolian Turghut tribe of the Desert, who originally lived in the Ejina and Khovd areas, brought some of the Durbot tribe and the Heshuote tribe to the west.

They moved to the lower reaches of the Ezil River (Volga River) and took refuge with the Rakshasa people. The main reason was that their leader at that time was at odds with Baturhuntaiji, the leader of the Orlek and Junggar tribes, and was afraid of being annexed by the Junggar tribe.

The Rakshasa recruited a large number of defecting Mongolians to fight for themselves. During the Great Northern War, they recruited a large number of Torgut cavalry.

"Fuyuan, why did you let our army stop at the Chechen border?"

In the Ming army camp, Ma Xin and Li Rubi angrily questioned Shi Dacheng, the newly appointed governor of Outer Mongolia.

"Because I think we can persuade the Chechen Khan Babu to surrender without any blood," Shi Dacheng said unhurriedly, his handsome face full of warmth.

"Fuyuan, our army is strong, why do we want to persuade them to surrender? Wouldn't it be better to just destroy the Chechen tribe?" Li Rubi shouted. He is a pure warrior, and what he fears most is not having a fight.

"No, the situation in Mobei is complicated, and various forces are intertwined. If the Chechen tribe is forced to join forces and join the Rakshasa people or Mongolia or the Kazakh Khanate, the border will not be peaceful."

Ma Xin thought thoughtfully, "How do you plan to persuade Babu to surrender?"

"An official, a letter, and two heads, that's all."

??

"Bring an envoy!"

"Bring an envoy!"

"Bring an envoy"??

Shouts came to the Chechen Khan tent, and Shi Dacheng calmly walked through the two rows of Chechen warriors holding swords, guns, swords and halberds.

After entering the account, I met Babu and bowed my hands.

"How dare you, why don't you kneel down when you see King Khan?" the Chechen Khan's bodyguard angrily yelled.

Shi Dacheng raised his head high, glanced at Babu, and angrily said: "The bold native chief, why don't you kneel down when you meet His Majesty the Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty and the envoy of Tengger Khan, the proud emperor of Mongolia?"

Babu sneered: "Your Majesty is very brave! Are you here to tease me?"

"I am here to bring you a letter and a head. Since ancient times, those who know the current affairs have been regarded as heroes. Why not obey the will of God and submit to the Ming Dynasty? If the Holy Emperor is in the court, he will be generous and kind, and he will be awarded the title of earl."

"Letter and head?"

"The letter of Master Jebtsundamba and the heads of Tushetu Khan Chahu Dorji and his son".

Babu was stunned and ordered the people around him to bring up the letters and heads.

First, when I saw the head of an old acquaintance, I was saddened by the death of a rabbit and a fox, and I couldn't help but feel depressed; then I saw a letter written by Jebtsundamba, which said that His Majesty Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty was benevolent and righteous, and he would be fine after surrendering.

So much.

Alas! This is the younger brother of Tuxie Tuhan Chahun Dorji. Even he returned to the Ming Dynasty. It seems that the Ming Dynasty is really his destiny! However, since ancient times, most of the prisoners who surrendered did not end well. Will the Ming army surrender?

To kill a donkey, first trick yourself into surrendering and then kill it?

After hesitating for a while, he slowly asked: "You asked me to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Is the Ming Dynasty sincere?"

"Of course," Shi Dacheng said loudly, "this is the sincerity of Ming Dynasty."

"Ha~ha~ha~"

There was laughter in the sweat tent.

Babu was also happy. He suppressed his laughter and asked: "Are you crazy? Just one person can be regarded as the sincerity of the Ming Dynasty? Who are you?"

"Humph!"

Shi Dacheng snorted coldly, "I am Shi Dacheng, the governor of the Ming Dynasty." Seeing that no one seemed to react, he yelled again: "I am a second-rank official!"

??

One official, one letter, and two heads successfully persuaded the Chechen Khan Babu to surrender.

I learned from Babu that the Rakshasa people were building a castle on the banks of the Seleng River. Shi Dacheng secretly rejoiced that he did not attack the Chechens. Otherwise, if the Chechens were cornered, they would surrender to the Rakshasa people like the Turghuts.

, the border in Mobei is not peaceful.

Although he looks elegant and is a scholar, he is bloody and very decisive in his work.

Immediately, Ma Xin was ordered to lead 10,000 cavalry to the Seleng River to expel the Rakshasa people; he also sent Gonbuzak Bingtu Ahai, the younger brother of Jasak Tukhan Norbu, to Nerchinsk to reprimand Bashko, the governor of the Rakshasa people.

Husband.

Shi Dacheng told Gunbuzak Bingtu Ahai: The attitude must be tough to enhance the prestige of our celestial empire; the wrist must be flexible to ensure a period of border peace, and when necessary, we can agree to trade with the Rakshasa people.
