Chapter 1879 The grace and power are given together, which has been comforted and should be deterred
Nominally surrendered to the rule of the Qi Dynasty, but was recognized by Xiao Tang as the Khan King of the Qiyan and other tribes. Hebule then jointly mobilized troops to search and annihilate the Wanggu Tribe, Tataer Tribe and Jin Tribe in the desert. The remnants of the army, and it is related to the two sides setting up trading houses to trade with each other, based on the exchange value of furs, horses, animal sinews, shovels, rice and salt, medicinal materials, cloth, iron pots... and other major commodities. There was no fierce bargaining. Originally, Xiao Tang planned to use this kind of mutual trade as one of the means to appease and win over the Mengwu clan and Wei tribes, and to obtain benefits from it. The two sides quickly reached an agreement that was mutually beneficial to both parties. Relatively satisfactory results.
However, as for the place where the Qi Dynasty established the mutual market, Hebule discovered that according to Xiao and Tang's deployment, it was indeed necessary to establish a wide range of customs markets along the desert boundary near the state capitals directly under the Qi Dynasty. In this way, not only would the Qi Dynasty accept The Qi Dynasty planned a defensive alliance, and the tribes that submitted to the Qi Dynasty were more likely to enjoy the benefits of the Qi Dynasty's method of opening up mutual trade markets. In the vast desert, the Mongolian tribes and Wei tribes were most in need of exchanges for mutual trade in the Central Plains. It is inconvenient to move out of areas that are too far away from the Qi Dynasty's own territory. This also limits the activity space of other nomadic tribes on the Mongolian Plateau to a certain extent.
But even if he criticized it, Hebu Le could not come up with an argument to change this status quo. Song and Liao Dynasties, Song and Xia Dynasties, Song and Jin Dynasties... There are exchanges between countries, and there is no one where the two sides are connected. Border area? Although Xiao and Tang relaxed the restrictions and scope of mutual trade items, how can the convenience and benefits only be occupied by the tribes in the desert? Encourage merchants from the south to come to trade, don't you also have to make them profitable? They go deep into the desert where there is no village in front of them and no store in the back. Who is willing to risk their lives every time to do business?
Until the meeting ended in what seemed to be a very harmonious atmosphere, Hebule put on a respectful farewell posture and watched the honor guard horses escorting Xiao Tang gradually disappear from the other side of the horizon. The smile on his face His mood gradually disappeared, and then his face became gloomy as if it was about to ooze out. And his fourth son, Hutula, who was born tall and strong, quickly ran up to him and said in a deep voice: "Father, of course we can use all of them." The emperor came to eradicate all the enemies of our tribe. At first we were not afraid of the threat of the Jin people, and no one could conquer our tribe. But now we have reached an alliance with the Qi Dynasty... Why do I feel that I have to be led by the emperor of the Qi Dynasty? Walk?"
Hebule's expression became more solemn, and then he said: "We plan to jointly send troops to clear out the Jin people, the Tata'er tribe, and the Wanggu tribe. Speaking of which, we and the Qi Dynasty only use each other, but we can trade with the Southern Dynasty. , but it is crucial to the livelihood of the people of our tribe. The Emperor of Qi Dynasty was indeed sincere, but although he treated the tribes in the desert very well on the surface, his ambitions were much greater than those of the Liao and Jin people. He came to The desert does not use swords, guns, bows and horses to make us submit and obey, but it uses the tribes of the desert to survive, and does not hesitate to kill each other for supplies to teach us to surrender under his feet. And he is willing to easily allow me to retain the throne, I'm afraid It is also expected that I will hardly pose any threat to him..."
Hu Tu La became even more anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "In that case, why would my father help the Qi Dynasty to annihilate the Tata'er tribe and the Wang Gu tribe, but wouldn't it be better to teach the boys to fight with each other and waste their troops? Isn't it possible?
Can we just sit back and watch the Qi Emperor control all the tribes in the desert, and we can only remain indifferent!?"
Hebule, who had a habit of being aggressive in his speech, was silent for a moment, and then he sighed and said: "Do you think we are the only ones who can cooperate with the soldiers and horses of the Qi Dynasty to conquer other tribes in the desert? The tribes on our grassland only want to go to the desert.
Competing for places with abundant water and grass, nomadic migrations every year, encountering black and white disasters, a large number of livestock cattle and sheep die of cold and disease, which also cuts off the livelihood of the herdsmen in the tribe, so the two tribes can only fight to the death. In fact, except for Tata'er
In addition to the deep hatred between the Wanggu tribe and my tribe, how many tribes actually resented us for driving them away? Now not only can we not oppose the Xiaotang and Qi Dynasties, but we can also teach other tribes to instigate the Southern Emperor and the Qi Dynasty.
The reason why we are enemies is because the Jin people despise us too much. Most of the tribes are bullied and oppressed by them. If we raise troops to resist, we can also make some tribes who share the same enemy mentality be willing to join us.
Tribe. But now more tribes are actively choosing to accept the rule of Xiao Tang for the sake of livelihood. If our tribe goes against the Southern Dynasty, I am afraid that we will suffer the misfortune of death and suffer from poverty.
And in this current situation, it is difficult to use other tribes' hostile attitude towards the Jin Kingdom to increase our strength. Joining forces with Xiao Tang, I can still use him to eradicate the mortal enemy of my Qiyan tribe, but if I do anything to him
Enemies, obstructing his plan to recruit and settle other tribes, I am afraid that the tribes that will regard our Qiyan tribe as mortal enemies are not just the Tata'er and Wanggu tribes, so now we can only maintain the current situation.
In this situation, we still have to submit to the Emperor of Qi in name, and we must not have any disputes with him...at least not now..."

About ten days later, cries and screams could be heard in a nomadic tent about one hundred and twenty to thirty miles north of Linhuang Mansion. Among the chaotic and running crowd, there were also women, children, old and young, but among them there were also
Some children, who were only about eleven or twelve years old, also raised their horned bows and mounted their horses neatly, following their parents in a panic to defend against the enemy troops that were suddenly attacking the felt tent from all directions.
However, when those knights who encountered sneak attacks encountered those enemy troops who came unexpectedly, they saw knights riding on galloping horses wearing worn-out leather jackets and equipped with hunting bows and scimitars.
The Wanggu tribe members generally look like standard prairie herdsmen.
A barrage of sharp arrows were fired one after another. Even though dozens of Wanggu tribesmen fell off their horses in response to the string, one of the leaders gritted his teeth and waved his sword to block. He was about to draw his bow and draw the string to fight back when he vaguely saw the leader on the other side.
A leader of the Mongol Wei tribe, but he couldn't help but said angrily: "You... you are Chi Lawen of the Beesu tribe! I, the Wanggu tribe, have no old grudges with your tribe, but you, the Beesu tribe,
Why did the tribe come to massacre my Wanggu tribe’s people for no reason!?”
"Whoosh!" A sharp arrow whizzed from the side. The leader of the Wanggu tribe shook violently. The arrow cluster polished from animal bones had already penetrated his throat, and then shot from the side of his neck.
It flew out several feet long, but before the body of the Wanggu tribe leader who died immediately hit the ground, the cavalry that came from the side fired out dense arrow clusters, which not only directly hit the Wanggu tribesmen who hadtily formed a queue,
The shots knocked people off their backs, and some arrow clusters whizzed straight at the surrounding women and children running away with their babies in their arms, as well as other unarmed Wanggu people, old and young!
"Your Wanggu tribe has no grudge against the Biesu tribe, but you don't have any grudge against my Qiyan tribe?"
It was indeed Hutula, the fourth son of Hebul Khan and a famous warrior in the Qiyan tribe, who was leading the people of this tribe to kill him.
When Japan was harassing the Jin army, he cut off the head of a Jurchen Muke and captured the sharp saber. Although the expression on his face seemed to be somewhat reluctant, he still shouted angrily: "According to the imperial edict of the Qi Dynasty Emperor,
We are here to clear out the Wanggu rebel tribe who are ruthlessly robbing merchants and goods! Other tribes, listen up. According to the rules on the grassland, those who have the ability can come and fight with my Qiyan tribe. It is also up to you to plunder the goods.
All the property will belong to the tribe that grabbed it first. But since we intercepted this group of Wanggu people first, as previously agreed, except for the slaves who were to be kidnapped, we will kill every species and leave no one behind!"
