Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 27 The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying

In Dulbert's royal tent on the Ob grassland, two people were having a secret conversation. One is naturally the owner of this place, Daletesh, and the other is Hangtudai, the second brother of Hutai Jiombu Erdeni of the Khalkha and Tohuite tribes. He brought the people seeking Khalkha and Oirat. desire for peaceful coexistence.

This is actually what the leader of the Khalkha Alliance, Zhasak Tuhan Subadi, meant. The two major forces in the south, Lin Dan Khan and the Jin Kingdom, were putting increasing pressure on Khalkha. Especially the Jin Kingdom, they were very domineering and not only demanded They paid "Jiubai Tribute" and asked them to cut off all contact with Lin Dan Khan. This aroused Subadi's vigilance. In order to concentrate on dealing with the Kingdom of Jin, he secretly ordered Ombu Erdeni to seek peace with Oirat.

In fact, Ombu Erdeni had wanted to negotiate peace for a long time. Since the death of his father Shuolei Ubas in the war, the survival situation of the Tohuite tribe began to deteriorate. Not only did they face threats from the two major forces in the south, but the Oros people in the north also showed their fangs and repeatedly forced the Hetohuite tribe to become Tsarist Russian citizens. The Kyrgyz people in the upper reaches of the Yenisey River who had just been conquered took the opportunity to rebel. In desperation, he sent his second brother Hang Tudai to Dulbert's tribe to have a good talk with Daletesh. Originally, the target of the peace talks should be Oirat Khan Baibagas, but the Kushote people were in the middle of a civil war, and Baibagasi was too busy.

As an experienced politician, Dalaidaishi is keenly aware that after the Kushote Civil War, the power of the Dzungars will greatly increase. They border the Hetuohite tribe. If the Hetuohite tribe is completely defeated, it will only further increase the power of the Junggar people. It is better to keep them to contain the Junggar people.

"For more than a hundred years, enough blood has been shed between Oirat and Khalkha. They are all descendants of the gray wolf and the white deer. Why do you have to fight to the death? It's time to end the war and live in peace." Daletesh sighed. , solemnly said to Hang Tudai: "Please go back and tell Omub Erdeni Hutaiji that from today on, our Dulbert tribe will never be an enemy of the Hetuohite tribe. If you violate this oath, , humans and gods are outraged!"

Mongolian oaths are more precious than gold. When Dalai Taishi swore, Hang Tudai also solemnly swore that the Tuohite tribe would never fight with the Dulbert tribe.

The secret alliance between the two powerful tribes brought temporary peace to Oirat Mongolia and Khalkha Mongolia.

But at this moment, something big happened in the south!

The invincible Emperor Nurhaci of the Jin Kingdom actually hit a wall in front of a small city called Ningyuan. Not only did he fail to capture Ningyuan City, but he lost his troops and generals. After the defeat, he became depressed and resentful that the five tribes of Inner Khalkha helped the Ming Dynasty, so he sent troops to attack Inner Khalkha again. The leader of the Inner Khalkha, Zoliktu, was defeated and fled to the Siramulun River to join Lindan Khan. However, Lindan Khan severely accused him of being disloyal to him and took the opportunity to annex the rest of his army.

In August 1626, Nurhaci died of illness in shame and anger. Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne of the Later Jin Khan. As soon as he ascended the throne, he launched his third crusade against Inner Khalkha. The short-sighted Lin Dan Khan not only failed to save Inner Khalkha, but took advantage of the situation and attacked its remaining troops. "Those who obeyed were raised, and those who resisted were killed." The five tribes of Inner Khalkha collapsed under the attack of Houjin and Lindan Khan, leaving only the Bahrain and Jarut tribes to submit to the Jin Kingdom. Without Inner Khalkha as a barrier, Lin Dan Khan could only face the front of the Jin Kingdom's troops.

Something big happened in the south!

Emperor Nurhachi of the Jin Kingdom died just a year ago, Emperor Tianqi of the Ming Dynasty also passed away, and Emperor Chongzhen succeeded him. This was a very skillful monarch. As soon as he took office, he put an end to the powerful Eunuch Wei, and then appointed a group of Confucian scholars from Donglin to govern the country. This created a gratifying situation in which all the people in the government were upright and prosperous. The scholars of the Ming Dynasty ran and cheered, waiting for the Holy Emperor to revitalize the dynasty.

No matter how big things are in the south, what can I do if I blow up a pool of spring water? The tribes of Weilat in the north are fighting, what does that have to do with me?

After listening to his son's suggestion, Datai Jinomudarai of the Huit tribe verbally supported Baibagas Khan, but refused to send a single soldier to join the war. Instead, he sent troops to patrol the border and take in the Heshuote refugees to strengthen his own strength. . However, because the Huite tribe is weak, there are not many Heshuote refugees who have gone to the Huite tribe. It has been two years since the civil war broke out, and only more than 300 households have been taken in. Most of the refugees have gone to the Junggar tribe and Durbo. Special Department. Nomudale didn't mind. He was concerned about the Yarkand Khanate in the south, which was the focus of his expansion. At first, he did not dare to move out easily, fearing that when the army moved south, other tribes would take advantage of the opportunity to attack his home base. It wasn't until he saw that in the past two years, the four major armies of Oirat were beating me and me, and they were bleeding like rivers, that they no longer had the energy or thought to harass him, did he feel relieved and prepare for the southern expedition.

You can't stop luck when it comes! The caravans traveling from north to south brought him a piece of news that made him overjoyed: the largest separatist force in Yarkand, Abdureim, who occupied Turpan and was the Khan, died. This is a hero! The separatist ruler Turpan was called Khan and did not buy the account of the Yarkand Khan Court. The successive Yarkand Khan kings could not do anything to him. With this person here, Turpan is monolithic and difficult to attack. Now that this person is dead, it is easy to get it!
As a mature politician, Nomdale asked the businessmen in detail about the situation in Turpan before taking action. After learning that Abdulrayim died, his eldest son Abdullah succeeded to the throne. Although this man was brave and good at fighting, he had just succeeded to the throne and his people's hearts were unstable. Several of his younger brothers were dissatisfied with him. Moreover, this person is not currently in Turpan City, but is stationed in the Liucheng area southeast of Turpan.

Not to be missed!
Nomudale ordered the southern expedition. Now his headquarters has 3,800 households of herdsmen, plus the 11,000 Yarkand farmers and craftsmen captured in previous years, the total population reaches 30,000, all the people are soldiers, and up to 8,000 soldiers can be mobilized. In addition, the two small Noyans in the south, Aldar, Shuoqi and Erketaij, have always been loyal to themselves. They have more than a thousand households of subjects and can mobilize up to 1,700 soldiers.

Nomudale planned to take 6,700 soldiers to the expedition, leaving 3,000 soldiers to be commanded by his son Suletan and his confidants Tiemoer and Balsi, and stationed in the two cities of Yingsachuan and Xiaoyuledus to prevent unexpected events. . He was not worried about invasion by foreign enemies, but worried that Huite's four major separatist forces, Noyen Ubashi, Buyan Burhan, Ororik, Shuoqi, and Namuzhan, would cause trouble when he went on an expedition. Among these people, he is most worried about his two younger brothers Noyan Ubas and Buyan Burhan.

The day of the expedition arrived, and the densely packed Huite army formed a spectacular long snake.

"My son wishes Eqige a triumphant return." Eleven-year-old Sultan led Tiemoer and Balsi to see his father off.

Nomudale stared at his son with sharp eyes, "After I leave, the two cities of Yingsochuan and Xiaoyuledus will be handed over to you. Especially the city of Yingsachuan is surrounded by mountains and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. , is the fundamental place of our Huite tribe. You must guard this city and do not slack off."

"Don't worry, Eqige. After you leave, I will send more sentries to guard the city and not let the bad guys take advantage of it!" Sultan replied solemnly.

"Well, if your two uncles come with troops, they must not be allowed to enter the city," Nomudale warned again.

"Eqi Ge, don't worry. If my uncles dare to bring troops, I will fight with them!"

These words were so categorical that Nomudale was relieved, and he led 6,700 warriors southward to expand the territory with murderous intent.
