Chapter 840

Shigatse, in the golden tent of King Khan.

Gushi Khan Tulubaihu, who was on his deathbed, was explaining his funeral.

At this time, there were four sons in front of his bed, the eldest son Dayan Ezier (Tibetan name: Tendorje), the third son Majiu, the seventh son Erdeni Daiqing, and the ninth son Zhaketu.

As for the other six sons, the fourth son was adopted by the brothers, the eighth son Gunbu died in the Western War, and the remaining two sons Omubu, fifth son Yilduqi, and sixth son Dorji were all killed by the Ming army in the Western War. captured.

The tenth son, Dashbatur, was sent to Nanjing by Gushri Khan to act as a hostage along with the fifth Dalai Lama at the request of the Ming court after the Western War.

The three sons who were captured had asked Ming Dynasty to return them after Gushri Khan presented his vassal form, but they were detained by the Ming court on the grounds that they were war criminals and needed to receive education in Daming, and they were not released.

I heard that these three sons are still building roads in the labor force in Qinghai.Only because the performance is not good enough, it will take a few more years to be free.

Although Tulubaihu felt sorry for the three sons, there was nothing he could do.

He couldn't even keep the Khanate, so how could he save his three sons?

Apart from the four sons in front of the bed, the most eye-catching person is the current number one minister in the snow region, Gush Khan's former partner Pan, regent Diba, Sonam Raodan.

On the bed, Tulubaihu, who used to be tall and majestic, has become skinny and skinny due to illness, and has become a little old man with gray beard and hair.Even a child who is just sensible can see that he is not long in the world.

In fact, as early as the year before last, that is, the seventh year of Zhaowu, Tulu Baihu couldn't afford to be ill.

Only because he was worried about the future of the Khanate, and some medicines from Daming could relieve his symptoms, he persisted for two more years.

When life was about to come to an end, after repeated discussions with Suonan Raodan, Tulubaihu finally decided to lead the Khanate to surrender to Ming Dynasty.

It's not that they don't want to keep the Khanate's heritage, but that the two of them know that sooner or later Daming will own the snow area.

Rather than waiting for the coming of the Ming Dynasty and bringing disaster to the two families, it is better for them to take the initiative to surrender, and maybe they can keep the wealth for the two families.

With the support of two maids, Tulu Baihu barely sat up, looked around the four sons, and finally fell on the eldest son Dayan Ozier.

"Dayan."

"Father Khan." Hearing his father's affectionate address, Dayan Ozier, whose eyes were slightly red, quickly responded.

"After I died, you were supposed to be the King of Khan, but now, when I was about to die, I led the Khanate to surrender to Ming Dynasty, and only obtained a vassal of Wei Zangbo. You are puzzled by this matter. And resentment?"

After hearing this, Dayan Ozier hurriedly said: "My son dare not."

Tulubaihu chuckled, "You dare not, it's not that you don't have it, and you're still dissatisfied in the end. But you know, I'm doing this for you and your brothers."

Dayan Ozir was silent.

At this time, Tulu Baihu's spirit was better than before, and he continued: "A few months ago, Daming used 10,000+ soldiers to attack from the north and the south, and you should have heard about the destruction of the Toungoo Kingdom.

Afterwards, you should have heard about the fact that King Abdullah of Yarkand Khan led the Khanate to surrender to Ming Dynasty.

How do you think the current national strength and army of the Shuote Khanate and I compare with that of the Toungoo Kingdom?And you, what about Abdullah Khan? "

Dayan Ozier said: "For example, before losing Qinghai and Kham, the army of the Shuot Khanate and I could barely compare with the Toungoo Kingdom, but now it is far inferior.

As for the country's status, the snowy region is barren, how can it compare with the rich land of Toungoo?
As for Abdullah Khan of Yarkand, he was once a hero like your father Khan, how can your son compare with him? "

The Heshuot Khanate had a part of the border with Toungoo before, so there were exchanges between the two countries. As the heir of the Khanate, Dayan Ozir naturally knew something about this neighbor in the southeast.

But his words were not to the point.

No, Tulubaihu laughed and said: "Tungoo Kingdom can gather hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Can we and Shuote Khanate lose Qinghai and Kham? At most, we can gather 10,000+ soldiers and horses. How? Can you compare with them?"

Speaking of this, Turubaihu paused for a moment before continuing: "Since you know that you are inferior to Abdullah, you should know why I decided to make the Khanate submit to Ming Dynasty before I died.

It's because, I'm afraid that after I die, you will be greedy for power and position, and instead cause yourself a fatal disaster.

Even if you have a certain degree of self-knowledge, you are ready to lead the Khanate to submit to Ming Dynasty like me.

But at that time, with your prestige, how can you overwhelm those noble lords in Khan's country?

Maybe, instead of letting the Ming army take their lives, you let these nobles kill you.

If you are killed, your remaining brothers will certainly not survive—if Qinghai is still there, they may be able to escape somewhere.But now we are all in the snow area, where can they escape?
You may understand my painstaking efforts? "

The last words were spoken by Turubaihu to the other three sons.

The expressions of the several sons were different. It seemed that even though he had broken the truth into pieces and made it clear, there were still some people who didn't understand or didn't take it seriously.

Seeing this, Tulubaihu sighed, and said: "Whether you understand clearly, understand or not, Father Khan has done this, and you can only accept it.

From then on, you may no longer have the power and position you have today, but wealth is indispensable.I just hope that you can take care of yourself, and don't even lose your wealth and life for some unrealistic things. "

When a man is about to die, his words are also good.

Tulubaihu's words were all about this point, even if the sons were dissatisfied with the matter of surrendering to Ming Dynasty, they all responded in a muffled voice at this moment.

Seeing this, Tulubaihu waved his hand, "Okay, you all stand back. By the way, Dash will probably come back from Nanjing in a while—he should be helping the Ming court, you have to help him , so that your wealth can last forever."

In the end, Tulubaihu still couldn't help but give some more instructions.

As for whether the sons listened or not, he didn't know.

After the four of them left the golden tent, Tulu Baihu said to Suonan Raodan: "There is no one else here, please sit down and talk."

Sonam Raodan sighed: "King Khan, you'd better lie down and say, leave me alone. My body is still fine."

Sonam Raodan is only in his forties, but he is in good health.

"I really envy you." Turubaihu sighed, and let the maid help him to lie down.

Sonam Raodan smiled and said, "What is the king of Khan envious of? I'm afraid I won't live to the age of King Khan."

"Hahaha, cough cough cough..."

Tulubaihu laughed happily at first, and then coughed violently. After coughing up blood, his face became even paler, and his energy was much weaker than before.

After finally calming down, he showed a confused look, and asked: "You said, is the decision we made really right? The Ming court will implement the 'Abolition of Slavery Order' - this serfdom in the snow The area has existed for thousands of years, so it must have its own reasons, if it disappears, what will the snow area look like in the future?"

 Second more.

  Good night~
