Chapter 050 Four-Party Talks (Part 2)

Which one is stronger in making much trouble? Long Wen Gao Gong can help you!

Originally, Tumut was very good, and Han Naji had no ambitions at first - well, he was just slow to react and did not realize that in addition to the Tumut Western Sentinel in his hand, he could also pass through the battle with Zhongjin Hatun.

To obtain more than half of Tumut's strength through marriage, it was not expected that after Gao Pragmatic, a man of right and wrong, Daming would join in and help convince Qataiji. Now the strength in his hands has already surpassed that of Tumut.

It can be said that there are only two out of three in the world... Oh no, there are seven or eight out of ten in the world.

Now that his ambition has been successfully ignited, it will not be easy for him to give up.

Originally, this guy was an impulsive young man. He was able to turn himself in as Dacheng Taiji in a fit of rage. But he didn't realize that there was nothing he could do about it. How could he stop after he figured it out?

Therefore, despite the sweat on his forehead, he finally said sternly: "What about Tumen? Tumut has been conquering east and west for decades, and has shocked Monan. How has it ever been his turn to point fingers?

If he dares to come, I will expose the last layer of his dignity and beat him to pieces to see how he handles himself in the future!"

Huh?

His reaction was a little beyond Gao Pragmatic's expectations. Originally, he thought that Qataiji, the most powerful general in Mongolia, would stand up and say this. Unexpectedly, in the end, Hannaji jumped out and snatched him away.

got this line.

However, after Gao Pragmatic thought about it, he came to a clear understanding: Yes, although Han Naji has never fought in any big battles, it is mainly because I did not give him any chance. This guy has been beaten by his grandmother since he was a child.

If Yi Ke Hatun is regarded as his lifeblood, how can he be allowed to go out and fight in person?

Yike Hatun is a powerful Hatun that even Anda was afraid of in the past, and Tiebei Taiji is her biological son, and Bahan Naji is her biological grandson.

At that time, after Han Naji was sent to the Ming Dynasty, Yike Hatun dared to hit An Da on the head with a whip and scolded him: "The Ming people want your head, just give it to them. I only want my grandson."

!" As a result, I didn't even dare to let out a single fart, so I ran out in despair, hurriedly gathered people and horses, took a hundred thousand cavalry, and spread out to threaten the Ming Dynasty.

Some people may not understand why Yike Hatun is so awesome. In fact, it is because Yike Hatun was originally the third Hatun of Balsborot Jinong, the father of Ada Khan. In the fourteenth year of Zhengde (1519), Bals

After the death of Siboluot, according to Mongolian custom, Yikehatun was married by Ada Khan.

Of course, if we stop at this, it seems that we still cannot fully explain the strength of Yi Ke Hatun. Then we might as well put it more simply: without the existence of Yi Ke Hatun, if I want to control thousands of households in East and West Ordos, it will be impossible.

It's ten times more difficult, and even in Tumut's headquarters, there are many people who are Yi Ke Hatun's cronies.

Why is Bahannaji so awesome, able to cause such a disaster and make Anda lose face so much that Anda was awarded the Western Sentence, which accounts for 40% of Tumote's strength?

Part of the reason was of course Anda's love for him and her feeling of taking care of Daming, but another fundamental reason was that Xishao had already gathered many cronies and followers of Yikehatun at that time - that was her original plan.

It was left to his son Tiebei Taiji, but since Tiebei Taiji was dead, of course he had to give Han Naji to his only son.

By the way, when Tiebei Taiji died, Yikehatun originally wanted to bury one hundred boys and one hundred camel calves. When the number of forty children was killed, it aroused strong resistance from the people and some Mongolian nobles, and he was forced to

Abort.

There is nothing to comment on specifically about this matter, it is just an ignorant, backward and extremely cruel burial system, but it can be seen from it that she attaches great importance to her son, and at the same time it is not difficult to understand her doting on her grandson Han Naji.

With such an awesome grandmother who dotes on him, it’s not surprising that Hannaji was able to gain enough strength, but it’s also not surprising that he never got a chance to fight - What’s my answer?

Do you dare? If Han Naji is killed in the battle, I'm afraid I won't even dare to return home, and I can't even talk about hegemony.

Bhan Naji grew up in such an environment. Although no one dared to offend him, at the same time, he must also want to earn some military exploits to prove himself.

In particular, most young people who have not experienced war will subconsciously regard war as relatively simple, and feel that it is natural to win with their own bravery and wisdom.

This is Han Naji's current state of mind.

The highly pragmatic "Forecaster is like a god" made a slight mistake just now, but fortunately this matter is not a big problem. After all, having Han Naji take the lead is a good thing that can only be wished for.

However, there was something wrong with Chatterjee's performance. He seemed to be deep in thought.

Fighting with the sky, the fun is endless; fighting with the earth, the fun is endless; fighting with humans, the fun is endless!

Gao Pragmatic almost subconsciously began to wonder about Chatterjee's thoughts again.

No one would believe Chaterji if he said he was afraid of war, so Gao Pragmatic estimates that he should be weighing it now. What he is measuring may include several aspects.

The first is whether it is worthwhile to fight this war. Although "whether it is worthwhile" sounds a bit cheesy, any politician who considers the issue will definitely consider this first.

In later generations, Western media criticized Putin, saying that he was cold, cunning, unfaithful, etc. When a foreign reporter asked him what he thought of this, Putin replied: I have not heard of it, but I think that a national leader must first

What you have is wisdom.

And considering "whether it's a good deal or not" is a basic manifestation of wisdom.

In Chaterji's opinion, a fight with the Tumen would probably be a loss-making business.

Especially in the current matter, if this is really done, then it is Tumut who did not follow the rules. If Tumen really chooses to go to war, in the eyes of the Mongols, he must be out of defense of Dayan Khan's rules.

The rule of law, and the Mongols followed centuries of tradition for this purpose.

This can be regarded as a kind of "righteousness", so at this point, Tumote is the one who is in the wrong.

So, what about the benefits? There have to be benefits to be worth measuring.

The first benefit is that from now on, Chechen Khan will not have to rely on the breath of the Great Khan, who has only one Chahar tribe left. Moreover, if done correctly, Chechen Khan will be able to legitimately control the Eastern and Western Ordos tribes and make the natives

The headquarters of Mote and Qinghai Tumut are connected together (actually, they are separated by the Ming Dynasty's Shaanxi Xingdusi, that is, Gansu).

In other words, the achievements of the Great Khan (Anada Khan) in this life will be legalized after victory in this battle.

The second advantage is that due to the intervention of the Ming Dynasty in this battle, as long as Tumut obeys the wishes of the Ming Dynasty and falls out with Chahar, he will almost certainly be regarded as one of the Ming Dynasty's "ones", not to mention the current mutual market.

If it is retained, more trading locations may be allowed, and some restrictions on trading may even be further relaxed - for example, iron products.

The issue of iron products has actually become a big problem in recent years, mainly because the degree of agriculturalization in Tumut has become higher and higher, and the lack of iron agricultural tools has become more and more serious. For example, if you reclaim wasteland, you will always

You can't dig by hand, right? So iron plows, hoes, etc. are hard requirements.

However, Tumut could not do this by himself, so he had to rely on the Ming Dynasty. However, the Ming Dynasty also restricted the export of iron tools. Isn’t this embarrassing? Jinghua’s iron farm tools are obviously high-quality and cheap, but Tumut can only stare at them and cannot buy them.

, you can imagine how many Tumut people are so anxious that their eyes are red. It can be said that the more agriculturally-oriented tribes are, the more anxious they are on this matter.

Han Naji is definitely the most urgent, followed by Zhongjin Hatun, because there are the largest number of Han people in Daban Shengcheng, and the naturalized royal court is second, and they have the greatest and most urgent need for iron farm tools.

So, why are the two of them more inseparable from Ming the closer they are to Ming, and even more so after meeting Gao Jingshi? Because Gao Jingshi obviously has a huge influence on Ming's policy direction, and he is also the boss of Jinghua.

He is the absolute overlord of Daming Metallurgical Iron Industry. If you don't go to him to buy ironware, who else can you go to?

Not to mention the government-run iron smelting industry in the Ming Dynasty. Their costs have always been high. I heard that the government-run iron smelting plants in the north have discovered a new way to make money in the past few days: use the government's allocation to go to Kaiping to buy iron from Beijing.

After that, it was directly handed over to the imperial court. Not to mention the quality of the iron and steel, it also saved them countless troublesome processes and made a lot of money directly from it. It was so cool!

As for whether the imperial court is incurring losses or not...who cares, there are several businesses in the imperial court that can sustain losses, but mine is the most important?

Jinghua's attitude is also very simple: I am a businessman, and you are a court agency. You can buy iron from me reasonably and legally. This does not violate the laws of the Ming Dynasty, so why don't I sell it?

Therefore, if this war can prompt the Ming Dynasty to liberalize the export of iron tools - at least the export of iron farm tools, it will definitely be a good deal for Tumut!

Well, fame is not as important as profit. In terms of cost-effectiveness, it would be more cost-effective to follow the Ming Dynasty.

What remains is the question of fighting, or in other words, how to win and to what extent.

How to win, in Qataiji's opinion, is just a purely military issue. Military issues are easier to deal with and can be put aside for now. The first thing to understand is to what extent it is more cost-effective to win.

Directly destroying Chahar? Regardless of whether it is possible or not, at least Chatterjee thinks this is not a good idea.

Due to the increasing number of Han people, not to mention the Han Ming sects such as Han Naji and Zhongjin Hatun, even Qia Taiji has heard a lot of Han knowledge, such as "The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked."

.

By keeping Chahar, the Northern Yuan court, next to the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty would feel that Tumut was extremely loyal and extremely useful, and Tumut could use this to obtain privileges and benefits. But if it were the other way around, Chahar would

Being defeated in World War I, regardless of whether the Ming Dynasty was interested in occupying Chahar - this possibility is very small - it would not be a good thing for Tumut.

Even if the Ming Dynasty rewards all the territory of the Chahar tribe to Tumote, it will be useless, because in that case, there will be only one Tumote left in the north of the Ming Dynasty. If the emperor is instigated by a traitor, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Tumote will be ruined.

There will be no change, but no one can guarantee it.

As for whether Tumote can suppress the Ming Dynasty in turn after adding Chahar, Chatterjee is no longer so naive.

Gao pragmatism has made him understand that it is useless for the Mongols to fight alone. As long as the Ming Dynasty says "stop trading", Tumut will be in big trouble. As long as Tumut does not have the ability to occupy the Han land for a long time, even if he occasionally kills

There is absolutely no point in going into the pass to grab a handful. Otherwise, would the Great Khan be crazy if he had been tirelessly begging for tribute for forty years?

What's more, the Ming Dynasty's frontier troops are obviously changing their equipment. The rotten firearms that no one was willing to use in the past have gradually been replaced by the Longqing II muskets made by Jinghua. The same goes for the artillery. The old guns that were not easy to use in the past have begun to be used.

Slowly replace it, or move it to a less dangerous second line of defense to "use the remaining heat".

In frontline important places such as Shahukou, Desheng Fort, Xuanfu, Datong and other important towns, most of the No. 2 and No. 3 cannons from Jinghua are now in service. There are even some No. 1 cannons in Xuanda and Datong that look powerful.

So, if it’s not even easy to grab, how can we counter the Ming Dynasty?

Therefore, it doesn't matter if you fight Tumen, but let alone kill him, at most let him "suffer some minor injuries", and it is best not to even get seriously injured.

So now there is only one question left. Qataiji finally spoke slowly and asked: "Dachengtaiji, if Tumen really sends troops to intervene, how do you think this battle should be fought?"

When Hannaji heard that Qataiji also supported the fight, he suddenly became heroic and said loudly: "If Tumen only brings the Chahar tribe, we Tumote will defeat him with our own strength. If he calls for

Inner and Outer Khalkha and even Duoyan, Ulyanha and other tribes invaded together, so I issued an order to have Eastern and Western Ordos and Qinghai Tumote come to support, and then defeated Tumen in one fell swoop, letting all Mongolians know that Tumen did not

Ability to lead them forward!”

So courageous, Dacheng Taiji! It’s a pity that your method is so brainless.

Chataiji sighed softly and said: "Dacheng Taiji, you are much better at Sinology than me. You should know that there is a saying that 'a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength'. Why did he bring the Chahar tribe here?

Are we going to use our headquarters just like him? And why, since we have decided to go to war, we still have to wait for him to come? Also, where is Xin Ai, don't you care?"

"This..." After all, Han Naji had also studied some sinology. He couldn't help but hesitate after hearing this. His idea of ​​"headquarters versus headquarters" just now was actually mainly based on reputation, hoping to build Tumote's prestige.

However, Chatterjee's question was reasonable and he had to consider it.

"So, Uncle Tutuo, what do you mean?" asked Han Naji.

Qataiji said: "Since the Kuritai Conference is going to be held, it is better to have both East and West Ordos and Qinghai bring troops here at the same time. It depends on them how many troops they can mobilize. We can give them more time."

"Give me more time? Why? Are you afraid that they will treat the Tumen like the Inner and Outer Khalkhas and refuse to listen to my orders?"

Chatterji said calmly: "That's not true. It's just that during this period of time, we still have a very important thing to do, and this matter can only be done by ourselves and cannot be left to others."

Han Naji opened his eyes wide: "What's the matter?"

"Defeat Xin Ai."
