Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 297: Conquer Qihe with an iron fist (Part )
"Spare your life? If I spare your life, the people who have been ruined by your heavy taxes will not agree." Kundulun Ubashi sneered and ordered his subordinates to "drag this man down and nail him to a wooden stake to show the public."

Upon hearing this, Erke Yildun was in a state of disbelief. He struggled desperately and asked for help from his relatives, Dulbert Wutaiji, "My grandnephews and four great nephews, please help me!"

After all, he was his great uncle. Aldar pleaded with Kundulun Ubas: "This man is a Junggar official. Why not kidnap him and present him to His Majesty the Qianyuan Emperor?"

"The people are too angry. If we don't kill them, they won't be angry enough. Moreover, when we return to defend, some people in the tribe will inevitably hesitate. Killing him will cut off the retreat, and everyone will have no choice but to return to the defense with us." Kundulun Uba Shi explained coldly. Hearing what he said, Dulbert Wutaiji couldn't say more.

No matter how hard he struggled, it was no use. Poor Erke Yildun was dragged down and tied to a wooden stake. Seeing the soldiers approaching with hammers and nails, Lao Taiji shouted in horror: "You can't let me see blood, I am a noble. The Chulgan Conference stipulated that people with noble blood cannot be allowed to bleed."

"Noble? Damn you! You are just a dog that betrayed the Dulbert people." The sergeant spat in his face, then picked up the hammer and drove it towards his palm.

"what!"

Erke Elden hissed wildly. After all, he was old and fainted from the severe pain. The sergeant did not let him go just because he had fainted. He hammered him one after another, and soon his hands and feet were nailed shut. After the limbs were nailed, the man was dead, and those with sharp eyes found that his trousers were wet.

"Why did Erqige inflict such torture on Erqi Elden?" Afterwards, Ubashi Hutaiji quietly asked his father.

"My son will be in charge of Qihe in the future. He must not be benevolent as a woman." Kundulun Ubashi's eyes flashed with sternness and he warned: "The Dulbert people are related to the Queen of the Wei Kingdom. After surrendering to the Wei Kingdom, The strength will definitely increase. If the Dulbert people who defected to Junggar return, the situation will be extremely difficult to control. By then, the Seven Rivers may no longer be the Seven Rivers of my father and son. Therefore, Erke Yildun must be tortured. The Dulbert people create internal conflicts so that they can never be united."

"Hi~"

Ubas Hutaiji took a deep breath. In his heart, his father had always been a righteous and heroic figure. I didn’t expect that when fighting for power and profit, the methods would be so ruthless! Power, power, what magic power do you have that can make people who are originally kind become no longer kind!

"I just received news that Kundulun Ubas of the Heshuote tribe and Aldar of the Dulbert tribe are willing to surrender to David and will come to Ili to pay homage to me in the near future. The Seven Rivers belong to David from now on. ", Suletan said to the ministers in high spirits in the largest house in Ili City. People are in high spirits during happy events, and the emperor's eyebrows seem to rise to the sky.

"This is your Majesty's great blessing, protected by the Immortal God," all the ministers congratulated.

"Well, Liu Qing and Xue Qing, you two are responsible for the reception. The welcome ceremony must be grand and the guests coming from afar must feel my sincerity!"

"I obey the order," Liu Haogu and Xue Zongzhou bowed in response.

Sultan smiled with satisfaction and said: "Please step aside, sir, so that we can prepare for the reception."

All the civil and military officials retreated after receiving the order, leaving only one person in the tent: Hu Lianqi, the censor of Youqiandu. Although Hu Lianqi had not been in the defense for a long time, he had repeatedly made clever plans, so he was highly valued by the emperor.

"Why doesn't Hu Qing retreat?" Sultan was very surprised.

"Does Your Majesty want to actually control Qihe, or do you only control Qihe in name?"

Sultan smiled and said, "Of course I am in charge of the Seven Rivers. In the future, I will organize households in the Seven Rivers to integrate the people, and set up ten thousand households to govern them. But now they are newly attached, so I will show them gentleness first, and then slowly plan for them."

"Your Majesty wants to take care of it slowly, but will the Qing State and Junggar give you time?"

Sultan frowned, "What does Hu Qing plan to do?"

"The core figure in Qihe is Kundulun Ubas. As long as we capture this person, all the tribes will be leaderless, and it will be easy to organize households and people and set up officials to govern." Hu Lianqi offered a poisonous plan.

"No, it's not to take it down, it's to give him some pasture land," Sultan smiled.

"Eqi Ge, will it be dangerous for us father and son to go to Ili to meet the emperor?" Ubashi Hutaiji asked his old father.

"My son, don't worry. Junggar has not been pacified yet, and Emperor Qianyuan would not dare to attack his allies." Kundulun Ubas laughed.

Everything seemed to confirm his view. Sultan arranged a grand welcome ceremony. The whole city of Ili was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. Two cabinet ministers greeted him on behalf of the emperor. The atmosphere was grand and warm. "You have come all the way to join me, which shows your sincerity. I should show my sincerity." Sultan smiled and conferred all the auspicious gifts in public.

"I am now conferring the title of third-class Marquis of Guiyi to Kundulun Ubashi." The title of David was difficult to obtain. After the surrender of Heshuote Erqiltu Khan, he could only be granted the title of third-class Marquis of Dulan. "I thank your majesty for your grace," Kundulun Ubashi was very happy.

"Confess Aldar as a first-class Kashilu Kebo." "I thank your Majesty," Aldar was also very happy.

Then, the emperor rewarded all the lucky ones one by one. Suddenly he saw his brother-in-law Obodui Wulanghai looking at him with pleading eyes, and he couldn't help but smile. My brother-in-law has made great contributions in the battlefield, and he has made great achievements in persuading surrender this time. It is time for him to be awarded a title. He smiled and said: "Ebodu Wulanghai has made great achievements in persuading surrender this time, and he will be granted the title of third-class Hobok Seribo."

Another thought was that the old Taijihanak Tushetu of Heshuo Special Department helped him stabilize the situation in Qinghai and persuaded Eqiltu Khan to surrender. His son Bingtu Dalai Ubas also persuaded Kundulun Ubas to surrender. After making meritorious deeds, don't treat the meritorious officials lightly. Then he said with a smile: "Bingtu Dalai Ubas's contribution is not small. He won the third rank and won't lose eight libo."

Everyone got the reward and rejoiced. Those with a discerning eye can see that Hobokesali and Besbali are the territories of the Junggar people. His Majesty the Emperor made such a seal because he was determined to eliminate the Junggar tribe.

Taking advantage of the joyful atmosphere, Sultan ordered a banquet. Because there were many guests, they set up a banquet in the courtyard, offering delicacies from mountains and seas, fine wines and delicacies, singers singing, and beauties dancing.

The atmosphere gradually reached its climax. Sultan suddenly smiled and said to Kundulun Ubas: "I heard that the three sons of Marquis Guiyi are all among the best. Meeting them today is indeed extraordinary."

"The wild shepherds of Quanzi Mountain dare not be praised by His Majesty," said Kundulun Ubashi in a hurry and modesty.

"Hey, please don't be too modest. All three of your sons are outstanding people. I like them very much." Sultan asked with a smile, "Will you be sixty this year?"

"This slave is fifty-five to sixty this year."

"Oh, it's not easy for Marquis Guiyi, who has passed his sixtieth year, to still fight for the country!" Suletan expressed his sincere admiration, and suddenly changed the subject, "I don't want to overwork my old minister, but I can send your troops to Divide it equally into three Otuoks, and each of Qing's three sons will serve as governors."

What! Let me rest and give the power to my son? Kundulun Ubas felt dizzy. The second son Ubashi Hutaiji was naturally unwilling, but the eldest son Mamadale Ubash and the fourth son Okchotbu were interested. Originally, the father wanted to hand over the tribe to Ubash Hutaiji. This means that they have obtained equal power with Ubashi Hutaiji.

"Although I am old, I am still willing to work for Your Majesty." Kundulun Ubashi was sweating profusely and did not want to hand over power.

Sultan's face sank, "I have made a decision on this matter. You can spend your old age at home and entertain your grandchildren. What? Is it possible that you want to resist the decree?"

As soon as the word "resist the decree" came out, all the civil and military officials of the Wei Kingdom present glared at Kundulun Ubashi, and the emperor's guards all pressed their hands on the hilts of their swords.

broken! I fell into the trap of this boy Sultan! The old hero had a rough life, and he soon came to his senses. However, it was a done deal, so he had no choice but to accept his fate and said with a sad smile: "Your Majesty cares about this slave. I will never be able to repay the grace of God if I die."

"I know your loyalty. Don't worry, I won't treat your descendants badly." Suletan first reassured him, and then took action. "Ili has set up Heshuote Ten Thousand Households. Since you are Heshuote people, please move your tribe to Yili." By moving from Qihe to Yili, it will be difficult to cause trouble in the future.

"My slave obeys the order," Kundulun Ubashi lowered his head weakly.

Although he had controlled Kundulun Ubas, the opponent was one of the famous Heshuote Five Tigers after all. Suletan did not dare to be careless at all. While putting him under house arrest in Ili, he sent Mandu Latu and Aishan , Obodui Ulanghai generals and his three sons led troops to Qihe.

Things went smoothly, and the three sons of Kundulun Ubas cooperated very well. The leaderless Qihe Heshuote tribe was forcibly brought to Ili to organize households and people, and was divided into three Otoks. This increased the number of Otok in Heshuotewanhu Prefecture from four to seven.

Sultan also set up the Durbot Ten Thousand Households in the Seven Rivers Basin, and organized the tribes of Wutaiji into five Otoks, with Durbot Minister Aldar as the chief minister, and his brother-in-law Obodui. Wulanghai is the head of ten thousand households.

Winter is coming, and he plans to return to Lhasa first, and then attack Junggar in the spring of next year. In order to ensure the security of northern Xinjiang, Balsi, the head of the Huitewan household, was appointed as the governor of Oirat, in charge of the military affairs of the 30,000 households of Huite, Heshuote, and Durbot. He also appointed his confidant Mandu Latu as the head of the Huitewan household. .

Changshengtian is fair. Just when everything was going well, bad news came: rebellions broke out in Lhasa, Shigatse, Shannan and other places, and the snow-covered plateau was in chaos!
