Chapter 641 The bottom overcomes the top, we want to nourish the Ming Dynasty!

"Let's go, there's no need to look any further."

Cao Wenzhao said, turned and left.

The deputy general on the side followed Cao Wenzhao, looking a little hesitant.

Cao Wenzhao saw this and asked, "What's wrong?"

The deputy general said: "General, why do you think Huang Taiji's formation looks familiar to you?"

Cao Wenzhao couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Doesn't this look familiar? This is how Huang Taiji was defeated in Liaodong. If Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of southern Liaoning, did not have a cavalry capable of fighting, Huang Taiji would still be able to fight.

Bringing more than 10,000 people back to Shenyang?"

The deputy general suddenly realized, no wonder Huang Taiji's formation looked so familiar. It turned out to be the formation of our new army of the Ming Dynasty, but there were no trenches dug, no barbed wire fences, no large number of cannons to suppress fire, and no fire dragon bombs.

But with the help of the forced vassal tribes and the overwhelming Eight Banners cavalry soldiers, he still won the battle.

This doesn't mean how strong Huang Taiji is, it only means that Mongolia is indeed in trouble today.

After Huang Taiji won the battle, Cao Wenzhao understood that the situation in the grassland was about to change even more. Huang Taiji would definitely use the momentum of victory to conquer the tribes in the Chahar Grassland. When he really conquered all the tribes,

It will be troublesome if we try to drive Huang Taiji out of the grassland again.

"Go back and prepare for war. The war between us and Huang Taiji is not far away."

These were Cao Wenzhao's last words before leaving Saihan Mountain.

In the Battle of Saihan Mountain, the Chahar Tribe was defeated by Huang Taiji again, and this time it was a decisive battle carefully planned by the Chahar Tribe. Three of the headquarters' ten thousand cavalry and four recruited ten thousand cavalry were dispatched. This made the Chahar Tribe

Not only did they completely lose the power to resist Huang Taiji, they also put the power of these small tribes on the Chahar Grassland into a period of weakness.

Nowadays, a large number of small tribes have chosen to surrender to Huang Taiji, which has greatly expanded Huang Taiji's power. He has the capital to run rampant in the grasslands, and the Chahar tribe, which is now weak, is unable to stop Huang Taiji.

When Ruitu Taiji was defeated by Huang Taiji, and even Ruitu Taiji himself died in the battle, and the headquarters of Wanqi directly under the Golden Family were lost behind Saihan Mountain, the Chahar tribe inevitably fell into chaos.

, Chahanhot also fell into chaos.

The Chahar tribe, which suddenly lost 30,000 cavalry, could no longer suppress the many small Mongolian tribes outside Chahanhot. These small tribes did not hesitate at this time. Those who voted for Huang Taiji joined Huang Taiji, and those who joined the Ming Dynasty joined the Ming Dynasty.

.

However, in just two days, there were not many tribes left outside Chahanhot. Other tribes either defected to the Ming Dynasty and lived a good life in Balian'a, or they chose to rely on Huang Taiji, the strong man in the grassland today.

After all, in the previous war, Huang Taiji continued to suck blood from various tribes. Now that he has won the battle, there is no reason for Huang Taiji to ask each tribe for men, horses, cattle and sheep, right?

However, as long as you can't think of it, there is no Manchu and Qing Dynasty that can't do it.

After all, Huang Taiji doesn't intend to do this, but it doesn't mean that his subordinates don't intend to do it.

Su Mingzhe, Fan Wencheng, Wei Gongchao, and now Wolong, Fengchu, and Youlin in the Ming Dynasty all coveted the cattle and sheep on the grassland.

With so many cattle and sheep, Huang Taiji will definitely reward the meritorious officials. Not only the Eight Banners disciples will be rewarded, but they will also be rewarded.

But how do you make your rewards bigger?

This depends on personal operation.

But who said that both Su Mingzhe and Wei Gongchao were masters of this art?

Therefore, under their careful governance, even these tribes that surrendered to Huang Taiji were required to hand over large numbers of livestock and slaves to save their lives.

After all, Wei Gongchao also had something to say, so why did you go there so early?

The Qing Dynasty didn't want you to surrender to me earlier. Now that I see the Qing Dynasty winning, I want to come and seek refuge with you. How can such a good thing happen? Pay the protection fee first!

Facing the aggressive Manchu Qing, these small tribes really had no right to refuse. They deserved to grit their teeth and call out the livestock and slaves that were enough to break their tribe's muscles and bones.

Although they suffered heavy losses, these tribal leaders were still very fortunate. After all, at least the tribe was saved and their status as leader was also secured.

If you go to Baliangadu, maybe the tribal herders will be allocated pasture and cattle and sheep, but they will not be allocated anything. How can this be possible?!

Now that you have taken refuge in the Qing Dynasty, all your herdsmen have lost is your freedom, cattle, sheep, pastures, and food. In the future, you will have to serve as cannon fodder for Huang Taiji. However, your nobles and leaders can still enjoy the glory and wealth.

But the leaders were happy, but the herdsmen were complaining about the oppression of the Qing Dynasty. They were already suffering from hunger, and now they continued to be squeezed and sucked blood. How could the herdsmen be willing?

It was also in this environment that the herdsmen of these tribes who had recently surrendered to the Manchus and the herdsmen of various tribes who had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty long ago and were now treated like dogs by Huang Taiji all thought of the herdsmen and merchants they had encountered.

Team, what an old friend I haven’t seen for many years said: If you can’t bear it, come to Balian Nadu. The court will allocate you pasture, cattle and sheep, and you will be safe when you arrive at Balian Nadu.

For a time, these herdsmen were extremely looking forward to going to Balian Nadu: they really wanted to live a good life in Balian Nadu.

At the time when the grasslands were raging, the Chahar tribe, which had been severely defeated and suffered many casualties, was also in an internal panic.

Zhututaiji lost and Huang Taiji won. This means that the Chahar tribe will soon be beaten by Huang Taiji at their doorstep and as far as Chahanhot!

Never do such a thing!

Who wouldn't want a good person to be treated like a dog or a slave to others?

At present, both the leaders of the Chahar tribe and the ordinary herdsmen feel that this early spring is so cold that it makes people's hair stand on end. What will they do in the future?!

It was at this time that someone came up with a very constructive idea: Since the Chahar tribe can't stop Huang Taiji, why don't we go to Balian's capital!

When this proposal appeared within the Chahar tribe, the herdsmen of the Chahar tribe had already begun to discuss with each other the prosperity of Baliangadu and the carefree life of the herdsmen who could have enough food, clothing and warmth.

At the same time, the remaining noble leaders of the Chahar tribe also held a meeting together.

The thirty-sixth generation of Mongolian Khan Ezhe sat on the throne, watching the nobles and leaders on both sides arguing endlessly.

These noble leaders suggested that the Chahar tribe should immediately cross to Mobei and run as far away as possible so that the tribe could survive.

Some suggested that the Chahar troops should go west and station in Qinghai and other places to recuperate in order to regain their strength and fight again next year.

There are also suggestions to unite the Ordos, Tumut, Horqin and other tribes to gather strength and then resist Huang Taiji.

There were also those who suggested seeking refuge with the Ming Dynasty or Khalkha. Some even lost their minds and planned to surrender to Huang Taiji, but were severely beaten by the nobles around them.

At the moment, everyone has different opinions, and Ezhe doesn't know what to do. He is just an ordinary Mongolian Khan at the moment. He has a title but no strength. What's the use of his words.

These leaders and nobles argued for two days in a row without reaching a conclusion, which made some people dissatisfied. Soon some herders from the Chahar Tribe chose to leave the Chahar Tribe and join Balian Dadu. This was the first time.

A group of Chahar herdsmen returned to Balian's capital after their defeat.

But even if some herdsmen chose to seek refuge in Balian Gadu, the leaders of Chahar still did not discuss a suitable choice.

At this time, a young leader couldn't help it anymore: "Discuss! Discuss! Discuss!"

"What's the use of discussion?"

"It's been two days! Huang Taiji's army is almost reaching Chahanhot, and our herdsmen have begun to lose. Can't you guys come up with a conclusion now?"

"Whether it is to withdraw or choose to attach to the Ming Dynasty, is it so difficult for you to choose? Why is the choice not better than staying here and waiting to die?"

A nobleman said with an ugly face: "We are also for the whole Chahar!"

"Now that the Great Khan is only eight years old, don't we still have to rely on us to assist him?"

The young leader sneered: "Assistant Khan?"

"The Chahar tribe is about to die. You are still here without any results. I have seen through you."

With that said, the leader walked out.

Another noble couldn't help but drink: "Charmu, where are you going?!"

The young leader named Chahamu said: "I know why you are unwilling to choose to go to Baliangadu. You are worried about losing your status and losing your wealth. But I don't worry about this. I just want to give Chahar

I’ll keep the seeds, you can continue the discussion, I’m going to Baliangadu.”

After leaving the king's tent, Zhahamu summoned his tribe. Looking at these anxious tribesmen, Zhahamu said loudly: "My father, your old leader, handed over the position of leader before he died.

I, Chahamu, will definitely lead you to live well!"

"Now, I have decided to join the Ming Dynasty. Which of you is willing and who is opposed to it?"

As soon as they heard about joining the Ming Dynasty, these tribesmen showed expressions of surprise. If they join the Ming Dynasty, they can divide the cattle and sheep into pastures. Who would object to such a good thing?!

Seeing that there was no objection, Chahamu immediately took his tribe, cattle and sheep to the capital of Balian. He finally understood and expected the remaining people from the Chahar tribe to rush into Chahanhot with Huang Taiji.

They couldn't come up with an answer either.

The bloody nobles and leaders of the Chahar Tribe all died in the Saihan Mountains with Qututaiji. Those who did not dare to go to the battlefield survived, but now they are still worried about whether they will lose their status. Could it be that they

Do you think Huang Taiji can let them go when he comes?

Chahamu led his tribe to break away from the Chahar tribe, which was just the beginning.

When the first leader led his tribe to break away from the Chahar tribe, the second and third ones also came forward.

Soon, five leaders took their tribes and left Chahar and chose to join Balian Adu.

There were two other leaders who decided to take their men to Qinghai, and a few thought they should go to Mobei.

Ezhe, who was only eight years old, had no prestige at all. The leader of the Chahar tribe immediately fell into division after losing the powerful Wolf King. Those who went to Mobei went to Mobei, and those who fled to Qinghai fled to the west.

There are still those who are willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, some who are wavering, and some who want to join Huang Taiji!

That's right, now that the Chahar tribe has been severely beaten by Huang Taiji, the entire tribe has begun to split. Naturally, some people want to join the more powerful Huang Taiji.

This leader obviously does not want to lose his power status, nor does he want to give up the current Chahar Grassland.

Therefore, he chose to join Huang Taiji so that he could continue to live on this grassland and continue to be his local bully.

However, he was not stupid. He knew that this matter could not be brought to light, so he immediately sent out his confidants to win over those who believed in him in the tribe. At the same time, he ordered people to secretly send a message to Huang Taiji, letting him know that there were people in Chahar who were willing to surrender to him and give him

He should respond accordingly.

However, the leader's rebellion plan did not go smoothly.

Nowadays, the blood feud between the Chahar Tribe and the Manchus is no longer just a matter of a great khan and the loss of nearly half of the nobles of the Chahar Tribe, but also the number of Chahar Tribe sons who died in the war during this period.

His clansmen all died on the battlefield, and now he actually wants to collude with Huang Taiji in an attempt to gain control of the Chahar Grassland. He dares to think so, but his clansmen do not want to surrender to Huang Taiji.

Ordinary herdsmen all know how Huang Taiji was doing during this period.

Who doesn't know that Huang Taiji is a person with no credibility, and that he treats the vassal tribes very ruthlessly. Maybe the tribal leader nobles can still live a luxurious and comfortable life, but what does this have to do with ordinary herdsmen?

These chief nobles treated them as cattle and horses, and then sent them to Huang Taiji as mules and horses. How could the herdsmen tolerate this?

Therefore, some guards who were unwilling to follow the leader and submit to Huang Taiji secretly spread the news. Soon, the entire tribe knew that their leader wanted to take them to work as cattle and horses for Huang Taiji.

For a time, the entire tribe fell into anger at being betrayed by the leader.

At this time, the leader didn't know anything, but he and Huang Taiji wrote letters of deep affection one after another.

Faced with the fact that someone within Chahar wanted to take refuge with him, Huang Taiji was extremely happy. If there was really an internal conspiracy within Chahar, it would be easier for him to swallow up the Chahar tribe.

Now that he has defeated the Chahar tribe, he has also recruited a large number of vassals on the grassland. As long as the Chahar tribe is swallowed up, the entire Chahar grassland will belong to the Qing Dynasty, and the so-called blockade of the Qing Dynasty established by the Ming Dynasty

Nails naturally no longer exist.

Thinking of Su Mingzhe's idea of ​​conquering Chahar first, and then eating Horqin from both sides, using the two fertile pastures of Horqin and Chahar to develop strength, conquer North Korea in the east, sweep Monan in the west, and completely conquer the Qing Dynasty.

With the great situation, Huang Taiji is in a very happy mood now.

Huang Taiji didn't need to fight at the moment, so he naturally wouldn't oppress the small tribes that surrendered to him too much. He chose to reorganize these tribes and form the Mongolian Eight Banners, which became the Manchu Eight Banners and the New Eight Banners besides the Han Eight Banners.

The main force on the steppe.

At the same time, Huang Taiji also wrote back to the leader who was willing to serve as his internal correspondent in the Chahar tribe, saying that as long as he could help the Qing Dynasty capture the Chahar tribe, Huang Taiji was willing to let him be the Great Khan of Chahar.

That's right, Huang Taiji plans to divide the Chahar Grassland and Horqin Grassland into several pieces to station his Mengba Banner. Now, as long as someone is willing to help him swallow up the Chahar tribe with ease, he doesn't mind giving that person a Khan position.

Anyway, it can be taken away later.

However, Yongkang, the leader of the Chahar tribe, did not agree with Huang Taiji. He not only chose to seek refuge with Huang Taiji, but also took his tribe to seek refuge with Huang Taiji, so that he could maintain his position and continue to own large tracts of cattle, sheep and

pasture.

But when the herdsmen in Yongkang received the news, their faces turned ugly.

"Why should the leader surrender to Huang Taiji? Our Chahar tribe has not been defeated by Huang Taiji yet!"

"Did the leader betray Chahar and the Great Khan?"

"We can obviously go to Balian's capital. Each of us can get cattle, sheep and pasture. We can live a stable life without worrying about snow disasters and food. Why does the leader have to go to Huang Taiji? The Manchus will allocate

Our pastures and cattle and sheep?”

"I heard that the leader has sold us. He went to the Manchus where he could continue to be a leader and have his own cattle, sheep and pastures. But when we went there we got nothing and could only continue to work for him!

"

"At this point, he still only thinks about himself!"

The tribesmen were discussing, and a young and strong man came out and said: "I won't go to the Manchus, because the Manchus can't be trusted. I want to go to the Han people. The man I know is in Baliangadu, and he lives a good life there.

I want to go to Baliangadu too!"

Another old man stood up and said: "The emperor and chief minister of the Ming Dynasty are trustworthy. In Balian's capital, we can all be allocated cattle, sheep and pastures, and we can all live a peaceful life."

"Peace, peace is the most important thing. Without war, cattle and sheep can have enough tender grass, and children can grow up. We cannot follow the leader to the Manchus."

Another herdsman stood up and said: "Yes, we don't go to the Manchus. The Ming Dynasty is obviously stronger than the Manchus and they give us cattle, sheep and pastures. Why don't we go to the Ming people? Chahar tribe will be gone anyway."

, we have to find a good force to join us, right?"

The tribesmen all agreed, and no one wanted to go to the Manchus to suffer. After all, in order to fight against Huang Taiji when he was still alive, many of the policies designated by Guitu Taiji were learned from Huang Taiji. This shows that the Manchus would not take them at all.

The Mongols regarded themselves as their own people, but instead exploited them as slaves. How could they rush to work as slaves for others?

The angry shouts of the tribesmen made the leader Yongkang feel a little bad. He walked out of his dome with his guards, looked at the gathered tribesmen, and yelled: "What do you want to do?"

"Want to rebel?!"

The young man who was the first to stand up against joining the Manchus stepped forward and replied loudly: "Touman, we just don't want to go to the Manchus. The Manchus will not treat us as their own."

Yongkang was so angry: "What do you know?"

"Now the Qing Dynasty is the strongest on the grassland. If we don't rely on the Qing Dynasty, are we going to die with Chahar?"

The old man asked: "Isn't the Ming Dynasty stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty? Why do you have to take us to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, leader? Moreover, the Ming Dynasty also gave us land, cattle and sheep, will the Manchu Qing Dynasty give us these?"
Chapter completed!
