Chapter 1872 Contact and meeting, begging the face to envoy
Until the honor guard of Xiao Tang arrived at Linhuang Mansion, several more incidents of harassment and intrusion occurred on the supply trains. Although Xiao Jiasui dispatched various military generals to lead patrols and patrols, he also engaged in several small-scale fights with the opponent.
, but those Mengwu Shiwei tribesmen who attacked the chariot retreated immediately when they saw that the situation was not going well. The surrounding terrain made it difficult to organize an ambush and encirclement circle to intercept them. Moreover, they could only be on guard for days and could not find the real master. Therefore, every confrontation ended
The other party left at most dozens of corpses that could not be interrogated. For a while, they had no clue to catch the real owner who took the initiative to provoke them.
Although the two urban areas that were originally part of Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing in the Liao Dynasty were bombarded by a series of stone-throwing artillery and collapsed in large areas, Xiao Jiasui arranged and took care of it, and the people in the city were calmed down to their own affairs until the Jin Kingdom captured it.
When it was the capital of the territory to the north, the pattern of Jurchen, Khitan and other ethnic groups living in the imperial city area was roughly followed, while Han people lived in Seoul. The surrounding large grasslands were rich in water and grass, suitable for nomadic tribes to move their horses, while in the south Minshewa
The houses are scattered in an orderly manner. If you can look down from the sky, Linhuang Mansion obviously has a different layout from the north to the south. It is vast and majestic.
Brothers Xiao Jiasui, Hua Rong, Du Bo, Hua Rong, Yang Zaixing, Hu Yanzhuo and other brothers had already learned about Xiao Tang's arrival at Linhuang Mansion. They also sent troops and horses to respond. The royal guard of honor entered the Imperial Palace of Linhuang Mansion.
After a long period of encouragement, the topic naturally returned to the incidents of attacks on the baggage supplies traveling through the desert.
Generals such as Shi Jin, Yang Zaixing, etc. who were naturally competitive and aggressive could not help but get angry. They started shouting that the desert Tatars were powerless and abominable. If they were to give a good face, they should use force to frighten them into submission. But Xiao Jiasui
Ziye still calmly analyzed the situation, and then said: "The two brothers Ma Kuo and Hu Yanqing are now going back and forth in the Hebul Qiyan tribe. Although the other party is unwilling to surrender easily, Ma Kuo's side does act according to the situation, and each other
The exchanges are quite close. And according to what I heard a few days ago, there are constant conflicts between Qiyan and other tribes and other tribes of the Mengwu Shiwei in the north. Now it is unwise to start a futile war with our country. Ordinarily, it should not be
They are doing things secretly."
According to the reports of Hu Yantong and other generals, when he inspected the corpses of the tribal herdsmen who attacked and plundered the carriages, as well as the birds he encountered during the fight, with their deep eyes, high noses and fair skin, Xiao Tang also thought that at this time Mengwu
The bloodlines and origins of the Shiwei tribes were still very mixed. The descendants of each sect multiplied and the clans spent money. Before Temujin was elected as Genghis Khan and established the Mongol Khanate. And most of the tribes in Monan and Mobei were collectively called Mongolians.
In fact, during the Soban period, the Mongol and Wei tribes were generally divided into black Tatars, white Tatars, and raw Tatars... Among them, some tribes in the eastern Shiwei were mixed with the Jurchens, and their languages are similar, but they are different from other tribes.
It is very large, and there are many other tribes that guard the borders of the Jin Kingdom. Although the Jin Kingdom is now weak, it is still possible to win over several clans and try to restore the decline.
"I don't think it's possible that the rest of the Jin Army is still secretly communicating with each other to seek support from other tribes in the Mengwu Shiwei. Since Ma Kuo and Hu Yanqing have already negotiated with Qiyan and other tribes, there is no need to make a big announcement.
, until after the meeting with Hebuli Khan, we will be able to get a clear idea of what kind of wooing and what kind of suppression the Mongol tribes have..."
Xiao Tang said in a deep voice, and still followed the previous instructions, teaching Ma Kuo, Hu Yanqing, and Duan Jingzhu to negotiate with several tribes led by Hebule in a polite manner. On the one hand, both sides were trying to replace the Jin Kingdom in controlling the desert.
On the other hand, although he has not yet been canonized and recognized by the Jin Dynasty, he has actually been elected as the Khan King by several tribes. When the leaders of each other's forces meet, they naturally have to send negotiators to negotiate for the meeting.
Time, place. And about ten days later, Ma Kuang, who had first made tentative contacts as an envoy and went to Qiyan tribe to stay for a while, sent word that Hebule would also
Send personnel to Linhuang Mansion to meet Xiao Tang and arrange a meeting between the two parties.
And until Ma Kuo, Hu Yanqing, Duan Jingzhu and dozens of Mengwu Shiwei rushed all the way to the boundary of Linhuang Mansion, the sergeants who went to greet them saw that the horses the riders were riding were not only short in size but also unattractive in appearance.
, the men riding on the horses were all dressed in rags, and most of them were wearing shabby sheepskin coats. It can probably be seen that due to the hardship of making a living in the desert grasslands, many herdsmen in Zamo only wear the same clothes all year round.
.However, these Mengwu Shiwei riders, who had shaved off all the hair on their heads, let their hair hang down in front, and braided their hair into buns, swayed up and down with the speed of their horses, looked around with wild and wild moves.
They were in tatters and poor condition, but their appearance was rugged and they looked quite evil.
Shi Jin, who was ordered to come to meet the sect, saw him, and suddenly he remembered that when he followed Xiao Tang on his mission to the Liao Dynasty, he encountered the Jurchen tribes who were still dormant in the deep mountains and old forests in the white mountains and black waters. The Jurchen tribes at that time.
, Although today's Mengwu Shiwei still looks like a semi-civilized barbarian full of primitive atmosphere, there is a precedent from the Jin Kingdom, which also made Shi Jin look at the expressions of these Mengwu Shiwei Qi who arrived at Linhuang Mansion.
He couldn't help but become wary.
Among them, there was especially a tall man named Wei, who was nearly one meter and nine heads tall. The other riders were all short and stocky, but this man, who was a head taller among the riders, showed great momentum when he moved.
It was like a tiger that was approaching on tiptoes before encountering prey, and his pair of sleek moves looked back and forth. When he looked at the resting armies around him, he could not help but be confused with Shi Jin and other cavalry generals.
When their eyes met, he stared at him without giving in. It was obvious that he also had a brave and fierce temperament. Even if he entered the sphere of influence controlled by Xiao Tang, he still refused to lose in terms of momentum.
Already.
And when the big man Wei from the Mengwu room looked at the fine armors and weapons on the soldiers marching around him, he couldn't help but show a trace of greed. Until Ma Kuanzong stepped forward and said to the big man.
After a few words, he suddenly grinned, and his smile turned out to be very honest.
Until these Wei Hanzi from the Mengwu clan, who seemed not to pay attention to the neatly arranged and powerful Qi Dynasty soldiers around them, reached the imperial palace of Linhuang Mansion, and they jumped off their bare horses one after another.
When Ma Kuo, Hu Yanqing, and Duan Jingzhu led the two leaders into the hall, Xiao Tang, who was sitting at the head, also looked at the other people besides the grown-up Wei Hanzi from the Mengwu family.
A leader who came to meet with half-undressed clothes was also tall and sturdy, with a strong figure and a look of pride. Although the two envoys sent by Hebule looked at Xiao Tang blankly, they looked at him blankly.
, there was not much respect on their faces, at least they knew that they were facing the emperor of the Southern Dynasties who had killed the Jin Kingdom and was determined to live in the desert. The two of them pressed their chests with one hand, a little stiff.
He bent down to salute Xiao Tang, but he was not overly presumptuous.
And Ma Kuo also stepped forward, bowed to Xiao Tang and said: "Your Majesty, Ma Kuo, has invited me Ba'ai, the leader of the Qiyan Tribe, to pay homage to Your Majesty."
