In February of the fifteenth year of Orthodoxy, spring has returned to the Central Plains.
In the far north, the wind is still cold and the ice is frozen for thousands of miles.
After two months of long journey, Ha Ming finally arrived in Beihai again.
An ancient Mongolian tribe, the Buryat tribe, lives here.
Most of them make a living by fishing and hunting, living a life of eating hair and drinking blood.
Both the Oara tribe and the Tatar tribe are eyeing the fertile land of the Central Plains, and the Uliangha tribe has even moved to Daning, Liaodong. No one has the energy to take care of the Beihai behind.
However, in the north of the North Sea, the Rakshasa Kingdom began to make moves, constantly clashing with the Buryat tribe, and encroaching on the fishing and hunting resources of the North Sea.
At this time, the Buryat tribe was still in the form of tribal groups. The total number of people in Buryatia was less than 50,000, and they were no match for these red-haired ghosts.
Over time, Beihai will inevitably become the territory of the Rakshasa Kingdom.
After Haming led his troops to arrive, he first ordered the large troops to find a place to camp by the lake, and then took a dozen guards with him to the largest tribe in Buryatia, the Borgujin family.
The Borgujin family is distantly related to the Borzhijin family where Genghis Khan belonged. It is an ancient surname of the Mongolian people. At least half of the guards led by Haming are of Mongolian descent, so there is no problem in communication between the two parties. p>
"Brother Wulan, long time no see!"
Wu Lan is the chief of the Bor Gujin clan. When he saw Ha Ming, his face was filled with surprise.
"Are you...brother Haming?"
Ha Ming smiled and said: "Brother Wulan, do you still remember the agreement we made?"
"Promise..." Ulan said doubtfully, "That young man...is he really your emperor?"
"Of course!"
Haming nodded and said: "After His Majesty the Emperor returned to Beijing, he specially formed the Beihai Guard to assist Brother Wulan and other tribes in resisting the intrusion of the Rakshasa people in the north. The army has already camped by the lake."
The more Wulan listened, the more surprised he became, and asked: "How many people did brother bring here?"
"A whole army of men and horses, more than five thousand!"
Wu Lan suddenly took a breath. He thought it was a joke at the time, but he didn't expect that the Ming Emperor was so generous and actually sent people to help him.
However, I always feel that something is wrong...
A few days later, more than 70 tribes, large and small, received the message that the Ming Dynasty sent troops to station in Beihai, saying that they wanted to help their tribes resist the invasion of the Rakshasa people.
When some tribes in the north heard the news, they gave strong support.
However, some people, especially some tribes in the south, began to voice opposition.
After all, in their minds, if the Rakshasa people attack, they will start from the north. The south is safe for the time being.
Wu Lan has been officially appointed as the commander of Beihai Guard. His task is to lead the tribes and help Beihai Guard establish a new order.
"Your Majesty, Commander, there are still thirteen tribes that insist on opposition and refuse to cooperate. Please make your decision, Your Majesty, Commander!"
Haming said calmly: "The emperor's will is very clear. If we want to resist the invasion of the Rakshasa people, all tribes must unite. If someone deliberately destroys it for their own selfish desires, then don't blame the ruthless military law!"
"Brother Haming!" Ulan said anxiously, "Our swords are for dealing with enemies, not for dealing with our own brothers and sisters!"
Ha Ming sneered: "When the Rakshasa people are burning, killing and looting, will your brothers and sisters come to help?"
Wulan was not good at arguing, and he was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, but he didn't know what to say.
Haming continued: "They only focus on their own territory, but allow their enemies to wreak havoc on other tribes. Let me ask you, do such people deserve sympathy?"
"But...but..."
"I know you don't want to kill each other, so I can give you a chance."
Ulan quickly asked: "Say it!"
"Among these thirteen tribes, select someone who understands the overall situation as the leader of the tribe. I will give you five days. After five days, if there are any opponents, don't blame me for destroying his tribe!"
Ulan was cruel and said: "Okay, let's do it!"
"And..."
Ha Ming stopped him and said: "In the future, it is better to address people by their official titles in public places!"
Wulan was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he had just called out Brother Haming in excitement.
He suddenly realized that times had changed!
Now there is a new order in Beihai, but I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing for the local people.
Five days later, the first clan meeting was held at Beihaiwei's station.
More than 70 tribes sent people to participate, and it was very lively for a while.
Although they all belong to the Buryat tribe, many tribes have little contact with each other and have not even met each other for many years.
However, everyone waited for a long time, but there was still no movement.
Wulan was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He agreed to read out the imperial edict in front of everyone, but when things came to a head, the commander disappeared.
Without the imperial edict of the Ming Dynasty, no one would recognize me as a commander and colleague!
"What's going on, brother Ha Ming... no, it's the commander. Where did he go?"
"Please be patient, Sir. The Commander-in-Chief has said that we will be able to return to the camp before tonight."
"But, all the tribes have arrived, just waiting..."
"It doesn't matter, just let them wait!"
Wulan was very helpless, urging her to finish, while making herself wait, not wanting to please both sides.
This conductor is really a coward!
Seeing that it was getting later and later, the tribal leaders became more and more impatient, and some were even ready to leave.
These people are not united to begin with. When they come here today, they are more of a wait-and-see attitude.
If it is beneficial to me to establish Beihaiwei, I will be your little brother and hang out with you.
Otherwise, who cares whether you are the emperor or not? I will not serve you!
It's better now. You called us over but no one was there. Isn't this a trick on us?
Just when everyone was about to leave, suddenly the sound of horse hooves sounded outside, followed by figures, hundreds of knights came to the outskirts of the camp.
Ulan finally breathed a sigh of relief. The leader was none other than Beihai Guard Commander Ha Ming. Behind him, the soldiers were dusty and dusty, and seemed to be rushing from far away.
Suddenly, he smelled a smell of blood.
Taking a closer look, those knights all have heads hanging on their waists!
There were one or two in number, seven or eight in number, and there was blood on the saddles, as if they had just gone through a fight.
For a moment, the noisy crowd fell into a deathly silence.
They are very familiar with these heads. They have yellow hair and a high nose. They are the Rakshasa people from the north!
Look at the number, there are not only one thousand, but also eight hundred.
Everyone dared not even show their anger. In their understanding, Rakshasa people are the incarnations of evil spirits and are extremely fierce.
Aren't these soldiers from the Ming Dynasty more ferocious than evil spirits?
Under everyone's gaze, Ha Ming slowly walked to the center.
The murderous look on his face is still there, making people intimidated.
"Come here, read out His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict!"
