Yue Tuo escaped from Guangning to the northwest, passing through the territory of Horqin Mongolia.
Horqin is now the most loyal ally of the Golden Kingdom, and Yue Tuo is one of the four little Baylors of the Golden Kingdom. Therefore, Yue Tuo was warmly welcomed and graciously treated by the leaders of Horqin until Tang Harik, the court of Horqin.
Horqin Khan Oba was out of Tang Harik because of something. Taiji Saisan heard that Yuetuo was visiting, and ran all the way out of the palace gate. He stroked his chest with his right hand and bowed to salute Yuetuo: "Master Belle!"
Yue Tuo squinted at Seysan, "There's Lau Sesan Taiji, where's Auba sweating?"
"The sweat is not in Don Harik," Saisan bowed to greet him, "Master Belle, please!"
Saissan welcomed Yue Tuo into the main hall, and let the maid soak in fragrant tea: "This is the best tea bought from the Han people, Belle, you taste it."
Hearing the Han people, Yue Tuo was furious: "So Sesantaiji has been secretly communicating with the Han people?"
"Master Belle," Saissan was embarrassed. "Saissan only had some business contacts with the Han people, and did not have any contacts with the Ming court or the army. Besides, Belle guarded Guangning, and Saisan wanted to communicate with Daming. There is no way to go! Haha, haha..."
At the mention of Guangning, Yue Tuo was even more angry, but he didn't have an attack. Instead, he picked up a teacup and drank tea.
"Papa!" The tea cup fell to the ground, the fragrance of tea overflowed, and the whole room was full of tea.
"Master Belle?" Saisan motioned to the maid to pack up the broken magnetic cup and re-serve tea for Yue Tuo.
"Sesantaiji, these Han porcelains and tea leaves are not blessed by Ben Belle." Yue Tuo didn't even look at the porcelain cup and fragrant tea in front.
Cesan wondered: What happened to Yue Tuo? Seeing this situation, I came to ask myself the sin. Is it because I didn't make up the Mongolian cattle record for him
But Sesanggui was Horqin's Taiji, and Yue Tuo gave him such a face that he could not get off the stage.
His respect for Yue Tuo is because Yue Tuo is one of the most relied on by Huang Taiji.
When Nurhaci died that year, those who were eligible to succeed Khan’s throne were Dabeile Daishan, Erbeile Amin, Sanbeile Mang Gurtai and Sibeile Huang Taiji. These four Baylors are the masters of the One Banner, each holding a banner of soldiers. Seeing that for the sake of sweat, the four Baylors of the Dajin Kingdom will meet with swords and soldiers.
At this critical moment, Yue Tuo stepped forward.
He first persuaded his father, the Great Belle, to give up the fight for the position of Khan, and then together with Daishan, he persuaded the Dorgon brothers to support Huang Taiji together.
At the meeting of "Eight Kings Discussing Politics", they suddenly proposed that Huang Taiji should be the Khan. Amin and Mang Gurtai were caught off guard and watched Huang Taiji ascend the position of Khan.
After Huang Taiji ascended to the position of Khan, in order to thank Yue Tuo, he let him be the banner holder of the red flag. In this way, he and Daishan and his son each have a banner of soldiers, which shows Huang Taiji's trust in him.
Although Saisan is the Taiji of Horqin, Horqin is a sideline of the Mongolian Golden Family. Their ancestors are Genghis Khan’s second brother Hasar. They have been unable to become the core of the Mongolian tribes. They have long since taken refuge in the integration of the Mongolian grasslands. The Dajin Nation is the most trusted ally of the Dajin Nation.
In order to strengthen the relationship with the Dajin Kingdom, the Taijis of the Horqin ministries have married the Baylors of the Dajin Kingdom one after another. It is the current Dajin Kingdom Taiji that is married to the Saisan family.
In the forty-two year of Ming Wanli (AD 1614), Saisan’s father Mang Gusi married his daughter, Saisan’s sister Zhezhe, to Huang Taiji’s wife. The five years of Da Ming’s revelation and the ten years of Dajin’s destiny (1625 AD), in order to strengthen the connection with Huang Taiji, Saisang married his thirteen-year-old second daughter Bu Mubutai to Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji is not only the great sweat of Dajin Country, but also the brother-in-law and son-in-law of Saisan, but the women of the grassland ethnic group have no seniority at all, and they are the real marrying chickens. In the history of later generations, in the 7th year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty and the 8th year of Dajin Tiancong (AD 1634), Saissan also married his eldest daughter Harizhula (the Manchu name Hailanzhu) to Huangtaiji, which further consolidated his relationship with Huangtaiji. Personal relationship.
In the harem of Huang Taiji, Zhonggong Dafujin is Saisan’s sister Zhezhe, and Bumubutai occupies the seat of Fujin on the side of the west palace. In the case of the temporary absence of Fujin on the side of the east palace, Saisan’s sister and daughter, It occupies the first and second place in the harem of Huangtaiji.
It can be said that Huang Taiji's life and death honor and disgrace have a great relationship with Mongolian Horqin Ministry, especially Taiji Saisan's family.
With this relationship, Saissan respected Yue Tuo like a distinguished guest, but Yue Tuo made it clear that he was here to inquire, and Saisan's heart was also moved.
"Master Baylor came from Guangning and was struggling with the saddle horse along the way. Would you like to take a break first?"
This is to see off the guests. Yue Tuo was furious in his heart: "Ben Beller is used to life immediately, and he has to rest before he can travel for such a long time.-------Sesantaiji, the Ming army will send troops to Liaodong on a large scale. , Ben Belle hopes to second some cavalry from Sesantaiji."
It is necessary to transfer troops again. Seisan held back his breath: "How many Horchin's cavalry does Belle need to transfer?"
Yue Tuo glanced out the window and thought for a while: "Twenty thousand!"
"Twenty thousand?" Saisan's eyes were as wide as his mount. "Master Belle, since Horqin returned to Dajin Nation, he was restricted to 100,000 by Dajin Nation-------excess male Ding was killed. In Horqin now, apart from the old, the weak and the young, there are less than 30,000 men who can fight."
Yue Tuo remained silent, and continued to stare out the window, not knowing what he was looking at.
On the grassland, male males are power. Without male males, they can only be slaughtered by others. Saissan's heart is full: "Master Belle, now is the time to take care of the young animals and save for the winter. The males are scattered all over the place. Shaman, I can't get them together---Master Belle, how many soldiers did Daming send to Liaodong?"
Yue Tuo thought, just make the numbers bigger. First, you can scare Saisang, you can borrow more Mongolian soldiers, and second, you can slightly reduce your responsibility for defeating Jinzhou. "According to the spies from Dajin Country, Daming Hundreds of thousands of troops to Liaodong-how many troops can Sesantaiji lend Benbelle?"
"Hundreds of thousands?" Sai Sang fell into the abyss, his whole body seemed to be hollowed out all of a sudden.
It is no wonder that Yue Tuo wants to borrow troops from Horqin, but Daming has hundreds of thousands of soldiers marching north, making it clear that he is going to fight the Dajin Nation. Although the Dajin Nation’s cavalry is invincible, there are too many Han Chinese and they occupy an absolute advantage. It is impossible to predict who will win with Daikin. Horqin is a small tribe, and you must not participate in the battle between the two powers when the outcome is unclear.
Sessan made up his mind. He stretched out his right hand and five fingers to Yue Tuo: "Master Baylor, the Horqin people have few soldiers, and they don’t have the Eight Banners and Tigers like the Dajin Country. Besides, this matter of dispatching troops must be related to the heads of the various ministries. People and Taiji discussed, and Saisan can only give this number."
"Why? Only five thousand?" Yue Tuo was lying on the recliner, thinking that if five thousand Mongolian cavalry were concentrated, they might be able to break through the Ming army's spear formation. By then, it would be Mongolian soldiers who were killed or injured, so he wouldn't feel distressed. For the sake of these five thousand soldiers, he didn't care about Cesan's rudeness for the time being.
Saissan shook his head: "Master Belle, you regard the little Horqin cavalry as the eight banners of the Golden State --- Saisan can give up to five hundred cavalry."
"What? Five hundred?" Yue Tuo "bumped", stood up from the chair, approached Sessan with his upper body across the wooden table, and raised his finger to Sessan's nose: "Sessan, you treat Ben Belle as a beggar. ?"
Yue Tuo fixed his eyes on Saisang’s face. It was a bitter gourd face with skin wrinkled like a horse’s neck. When he raised his hand, he accidentally touched the porcelain cup with his fingers. The porcelain cup suddenly fell over and the tea edged. The table top flowed towards Saisan's trousers waist.
The maid hurried over and wiped the tea from the table with her sleeves.
Seisan took the opportunity to turn his head out of the window. It seemed that a beautiful prairie pearl was walking outside the window, while muttering in a low voice: "Could it be that a beggar with such a big handwriting can give five hundred cavalry soldiers? Lord Belle, This is the limit given by Saisan as the master, and if there are too many, we must discuss with the Taijis of various tribes."
"You..." Yue Tuo shivered. He was speechless for a long time. He swallowed, "Ben Belle is ill, so let's leave."
Without waiting for Saisan to get up, he has quickly stepped out of the main hall.
"Lord Nabel rests first, and Sessan pleases Lord Belle another day." Saissan's words reached Yue Tuo's ears far away.
Saidsan immediately called a guard: "Send people immediately and rush to Guangning non-stop to see what happened there."
Since meeting with Yue Tuo that day, Sessan has contracted the cold. For four days in a row, he was bedridden. From time to time, he talked nonsense to the maids and guards around him. The witch doctor had seen him several times, but he still didn't get better.
Yue Tuo sent people to see him twice, but was stopped by the guards at the door. They refused to meet any outsiders on the grounds that Taiji was seriously ill.
On the night of the fourth day, the soldiers sent by Cesan came back. He insisted on seeing Cesan despite his serious illness, but the guards refused to let the soldiers come in to see Cesan anyway.
The noise at the door alarmed Saisan on the hospital bed, and he smashed a porcelain bowl at the head of the bed.
The guard was helpless and had to say to the guards: "You wait first, I'll go see Taiji."
Soon the guard came out, and he quietly approached the guards: "Taiji calls you in."
The soldier recalled that there was no one, and slipped in.
"Taiji." The soldiers knelt on Saisan's bed and bowed his head in salute.
"Get up, why did you come back so soon?" Hearing that the soldiers came back, Saisan's illness was half healed.
The soldier got up from the ground and leaned on the edge of Saisan's bed. "Taiji, the villain did not reach Guangning. The villain met our spies on the road."
"Oh? What did the spies say?" Saisan leaned against the head of the bed, tightly wrapped in leather, and his face was pale as if he hadn't seen the sun for half a year.
"Taiji, something serious happened, and Guangning of Dajin Nation has fallen."
"Guang Ninh------ah? What are you talking about?" Saissan sat up from the head of the bed suddenly, not looking seriously ill at all, "Who is talking nonsense? How could Guang Ning fall? Isn't there still in the south? Are Jinzhou and Ningyuan?"
"Taiji, it is true that not only Guangning fell, but Jinzhou and Ningyuan also fell."
"What the hell is going on? You speak slowly." Saidsan slowly leaned back to the head of the bed, his eyes kept turning.
"Taiji, the spy said that the entire army of Miaohongqi was annihilated, and Yue Tuo was left with 300 people around him, and five of Horqin's cattle records were gone." The soldiers did not know the details, but the general result was that the spies were still Told him.
"Is the information reliable?" Saidsan was still uneasy.
"Taiji, absolutely reliable. The spies were supposed to report directly. He said that Daming's military flags have been planted in various cities in Liaodong. Our brothers have gone to Guangning and will send back more detailed information soon. ."
Saidsan was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking, he slowly let out air: "How many more soldiers did Daming send to Liaodong?"
"The spies said there should be tens of thousands of people."
"Tens of thousands? Not hundreds of thousands? Is Yue Tuo lying?" Saidsan immediately thought that Yue Tuo had not told him about the fall of Ning Yuan, Jinzhou, and Guangning. He had already lied.
Saissan murmured to himself: "There are nearly 10,000 horseback riding red flags!"
