At noon, Asbas learned the news that his son Gilda had returned. He was so surprised that he couldn't believe his ears. He rushed out to greet him. When he saw Gilda appearing intact in front of him,
In front of him, Asbas hugged Jida and burst into tears of excitement.
"Jeda, am I dreaming? Are you really back? This is great. My son, you don't blame Abba. Abba can't help it."
Jida said: "Abba, where did you want to go? How could the child blame Abba? It is natural for the child to be a hostage for Abba."
Asbath nodded repeatedly and looked Jida up and down to see if Jida was injured or tortured.
"Abba, don't worry, they didn't make things difficult for me. It was Mr. Zhang who sent me down to the city in person. They didn't even touch me with a finger," Jida said with a smile.
Alsbas mused: "I didn't expect that Zhang Yanling really kept his word. He said he would let you back unscathed, and he actually fulfilled his promise. I didn't expect that he is a man of his word."
Jida said softly: "Yes, I didn't expect that. Abba, I have something to tell you. I met... the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
Asbath was stunned, turned around and looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the tent and talk."
Jida nodded and followed Asbath into the military camp and to Asbath's tent. Asbath lowered the tent curtain and told no one to come in and disturb him, and then he pulled Jida to sit down.
"Did you meet the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty? What did he say to you?" Asbas whispered.
Jida said in a deep voice: "Abba, the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty summoned me and talked to me for a long time. He asked me many things about our Duoyan tribe."
Asbath said: "Why did he ask this? How did you answer him?"
Jida said: "The child answered truthfully. After all, the child is in their hands and they dare not lie. I just told him the current situation of my Duoyan tribe."
Asbasi nodded slightly and asked, "What else did you say?"
Jida hesitated for a moment, seeming a little embarrassed to speak.
Asbath frowned and said, "What's wrong with you? What else did he say?"
Jida breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Abba, I want to ask you, do our Duoyan tribe have any deep hatred against the people of the Ming Dynasty? Do we have to become mortal enemies with the people of the Ming Dynasty?"
Asbas frowned and said: "What are you asking? We are the descendants of the Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty took away our empire and we are sworn enemies. As descendants of the Yuan Dynasty, naturally,
You should always think about this kind of grudge. This is not a personal grudge, it is a national grudge."
Jida smacked his lips and said: "These children all know it, but the Yuan Dynasty has been destroyed for more than a hundred years. Now it is the country of Tatar. Is it really possible to go back? I had millions of soldiers in the Yuan Dynasty back then.
, the territory is connected to the sky and the sea, and it takes a year to travel on horseback. In the end, not all was taken back. This desert grassland is the foundation, and in the end it is here that the descendants of the Yuan Dynasty can be raised and survive."
Asbas said solemnly: "Jeda, what's wrong with you? What do you mean by saying this? Could it be that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty told you something?"
Jida shook his head and said, "It's not the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty who said this, but the Marquis Zhang who told me. I think what he said is reasonable."
Asbasi glared at Jida, and Jida said in a deep voice: "Abba, don't get me wrong, I don't have any thoughts. I actually said these things for the sake of our Duoyan tribe. I just think that I, Duoyan,
The current situation of the Yan tribe is not very good. Abba also told the child that although our Duoyan tribe submits to the Great Khan, the Great Khan does not regard us as his own. The Chahar tribe is the tribe he trusts most.
.We are just living under someone else’s roof.”
Alsibas said in a deep voice: "Do you think Abba likes to live under someone else's roof? If we don't surrender, the Great Khan will destroy my Duoyan tribe. Abba has no choice between annihilating the clan and living under someone else's roof."
Jida sighed: "Yes, I understand. But what about the future? Have you ever thought about it? Our Duoyan tribe has no future."
Asbas said angrily: "Jeda, did you surrender to Akito? It's not right for you to say these things. It seems like you have been brainwashed. Don't be confused."
Jida shook his head and said: "Abba, the child has not been brainwashed, the child has suddenly enlightened. What do you think is the benefit of clinging to hatred against the Ming Dynasty? The Yuan Dynasty is long gone, and it is impossible to return to it.
The glory of the past is over. Besides, Dayuan is the Dayuan of his Borjijin family. What does it have to do with our Duoyan Department? We
We are indeed descendants of the Yuan Dynasty, but as we are both descendants of the Yuan Dynasty, didn’t the Great Khan sweep across Monan mercilessly and wipe out so many tribes? But we did not show mercy just because we were descendants of the Yuan Dynasty. We Duoyan
The tribe will probably suffer the same fate in the future. Abba, think about it for yourself, what does this persistence mean?"
Asbath stared at Jida coldly and said nothing.
"Abba, as the leader of the Duoyan tribe, you should take it as your own responsibility to protect the people of my tribe, especially the three tribes of my Duoyan tribe. In the future, if the tribe is destroyed, the people of my Duoyan tribe will become the property of others.
They are slaves. The Great Khan belongs to the Boljijin clan, and everything belongs to them. We, the Duoyan tribe, can only serve as slaves and work our lives for them. This is all so unfair. Isn’t what I said right?”
Jida said softly.
Asbas gave a long sigh and said: "Jeda, what's the use of talking about this? Abba also knows the truth, but do we have a way out? It's good that you can come back safely. Go back and have a good rest. As soon as the sun sets
, we are about to attack the city. You must not tell anyone what you said just now, otherwise it will be annoying if it reaches the ears of people who should not hear these words. "
Jida looked at Asbas and said, "Abba, what if we have a way out?"
Asbas looked at Jida in surprise. Jida took out a piece of yellow satin cloth from her arms and handed it to Asbath.
"What is this?" Asbath asked with a frown.
"This is an imperial edict written by the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty, asking his son to bring it back to his father. It is his promise to his father," Jida said softly.
Asbath was stunned with shock. When he came to his senses, he quickly opened the yellow satin cloth and saw a roll of parchment and an emerald green ring wrapped inside.
Asbath unfolded the roll of parchment, and it was full of words written neatly on it.
"Asibas Taijian, the great leader of the Duoyan Tribe, I make the following promises to you in the name of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty: First, the Ming Dynasty will not regard the commander-in-chief of the tribe as an enemy, let go of the past grudges, and not interfere with each other. Second, we, the Ming Dynasty, will not interfere with each other.
The Duoyan tribe became an ally, and from now on the great commander's troops would face any challenges.
Whoever attacks, our Ming Dynasty will send troops to assist at any time to ensure that the Duoyan tribe is not harmed. Third, our Ming Dynasty will provide food and weapons and materials every year to support the Duoyan tribe to strengthen its military force to protect itself, and teach our Ming craftsmen according to your ministry’s needs.
Production skills. Duoyan Department is allowed
Trade goods with our Ming Dynasty. Fourth, if the Duoyan tribe is willing to submit to our Ming Dynasty, I plan to grant the commander-in-chief Asbasi the command of the Modongdu Division, and the three Duoyan guards will be assigned to the commander-in-chief Asibas. As long as they are loyal to the imperial court, they will have military and financial power
Return to Asbas and decide on your own. If you don’t want to surrender,
I will not force it, and the previous conditions are still valid. Fifth, this is a secret decree written by me in my own hand. I swear to God that it will be kept secret and will not be mentioned to anyone. All aid supplies and personnel trade will be carried out in secret. I will
Assign someone to contact you. Thank you for this."
After Asbath read the contents on the parchment, he breathed quickly and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. This condition is simply too generous. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty actually listed such generous conditions for himself. If so
If the promise can be fulfilled, the Duoyan Department will not only have an absolutely strong backing, but also receive a large amount of material support, and its strength will be greatly enhanced. This is simply a big treasure falling from the sky.
"This is the ring on the hand of the young emperor of the Ming Dynasty. I watched him take it off from his hand with my own eyes. He said that this ring is a token. He did not bring the emperor's seal on this trip for fear that we would not believe his promise, so he
A dragon ring as proof." Anji said softly. Alsbas picked up the extremely exquisite ring, a mighty dragon head ring made of gold, with two eyes made of rubies. Such a ring would look like an emperor at first glance.
A treasure that only one can possess.
"Abba, this is an excellent opportunity. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty gave us such a promise. If our Duoyan tribe can get such a promise, will we still worry about being strong? What's more important is that they didn't even ask for it.
We surrender to them. In other words, our Duoyan tribe can get their help without betraying our ancestors. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Jida continued in a deep voice.
Asbath said solemnly: "But do they want us not to attack the city tonight and let them leave? Doesn't that mean they want us to betray openly?"
Jida whispered: "Master Zhang said that the city can still be attacked, as long as we turn a blind eye. They will leave quietly from the southwest corner tonight. When the time comes, my son will lead his troops to attack the southwest corner and secretly
Just let them go. No one will notice."
Asbas said coldly: "Jeda, Ming people are cunning. At this moment, they are in desperate situation, so naturally they can make any promises. Once they get out of trouble, they may regret it. You are too young and have been taken advantage of by them.
But he doesn’t know it.”
Jida looked at Asbath blankly and whispered: "Abba, if you don't agree, just treat it like a child and say nothing. Tonight we storm the city and take the little emperor and give it to the Great Khan.
That's it. Maybe the Great Khan will be happy and praise my father a few words. Maybe he will trust me, Duoyanbu, from now on."
Asbasi chuckled and said: "Of course, the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty will not be able to escape even if he has wings tonight. I will catch him with my own hands and send him to the Great Khan. Jeddah, go and have a sleep. Don't do anything else."
Think about it. Have a good sleep and help Abba attack the city at night."
