Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 342: Riding the long wind and breaking through thousands of miles of waves (Part )
The Chinese nation has always valued courtesy. Legend has it that the Mongols who are "remnants of the Xiongnu and descendants of the Xia queen" are the descendants of "Shi Jun", the son of Chang Yi, the son of the Yellow Emperor, and the founder of the Xia Dynasty, Yu, was the grandson of Emperor Zhuanxu, another son of Chang Yi. Since the Mongolians have the same ancestor as the Xia people, they naturally belong to the Chinese nation, and therefore they are also observant of etiquette.

In order to implement the traditional culture of paying homage first and then fighting, Su He sent someone to write a letter of persuasion to surrender to the guard of the Emin River, Ileden Ubas. Letters of persuasion to surrender are very much the same. Mild words such as "I will hunt in a certain place" contain hidden threats such as "I will become a powder" and "I will regret it too late". Pian Suhe had a straightforward temperament. He did not talk about being gentle and elegant, and he spoke plain language when writing. His letter to persuade him to surrender only had one line, "I am here with an army of 100,000 people. If you surrender, you can protect your wealth." If there is a war, no chickens or dogs will be spared.”

"Commander, the guard of Emin City is the fifth uncle of the last general, Ileden Ubas. I really can't bear to see him die. Please let the last general enter the city to persuade him to surrender," Orros requested. He had a close relationship with Elden Ubas since he was a child. Seeing that his uncle was in danger, he wanted to persuade him to surrender.

"Well, go ahead and be careful. If he doesn't want to surrender, don't force him," Su He ordered calmly, gently wiping the long ax of love like life with his hand.

"Yes".

On the city of Emin, Ileden Ubas can look far into the distance. The densely packed camps outside the city are really scary, and there are tens of thousands of enemies coming! However, most of the young people in the city were sent to the front line, and the defenders were less than 2,000. How could they hold on?
"Taiji, I just got the news that Toli City has been lost. Both Mergen Daiqing and Ahai and his son died in the battle." He was uneasy when the news brought by his subordinates gave him a blow.

On a very cold day, beads of sweat appeared on Elden Ubashi's head. He wiped the sweat and asked slowly: "Is there any news about Tal Bahatai? What did the head of the Pazil Thousand Households say?" As soon as he discovered the traces of the Guards, he sent messengers to the cities of Tori and Talbachatai to ask for help. Now that Tori City had been lost, the only people he could count on were the friendly forces of Talbachatai.

"Taiji, our envoy failed to enter Tarbahatai City, nor did he meet the head of the Pazil Thousand Households. The Jiutaiji of the Turgut tribe in the Ob grassland rebelled, raised troops and went south to surround Tal. Bahatai City”.

"What!" Elden Ubas staggered and almost fell down the city. He is old and no longer has the high spirits and enthusiasm of his youth. Since he surrendered to Junggar, he just wants to entertain his grandchildren and spend his old age quietly.

To be fair, Batur Hutaiji of Junggar treated him well. The Emin River Basin is the traditional pasture land of the Junggar tribe. Although its importance has been reduced after acquiring the grasslands of Urumqi and Barkol, not just anyone can serve as the guard of Emin City. Huitai Ji ordered him to surrender as a general to guard this city. What a trust! What a mind and courage! In this life, he only obeyed two people, one was his third brother Dalai Teish, and the other was Batur Hutaiji. Now that the army is approaching the city, it stands to reason that he should fight to the death to repay Huitai Ji's kindness.

"Tell the soldiers to close all the city gates from today on and step up vigilance. A storm is coming!" Lao Taiji sighed heavily.

The imagined storm did not appear immediately. The guards just surrounded the city without even firing their cannons.

A guard general wearing a blue-collared red robe and several loud-voiced followers shouted near the south gate: "I am Orros of Dulbert's Department, and I invite Uncle Elden Ubas to come to the city. The head answered.”

Hearing that his nephew was calling him, Elden Ubas stepped on the city wall leisurely and said, "Orros, if you are here to persuade me to surrender, please come back. Uncle, I have received great favor from Huitaiji, and I can only do so with There is no reason to surrender to the enemy unless you die!"

"Uncle, we are Durbots, why should we sacrifice our lives for the Dzungars? You keep saying that you want to repay Batur's great kindness, but do you know how many Durbots he killed for the imperial hegemony?"

As soon as these words came out, Elden Ubash was speechless. The road to hegemony is full of blood. Which strongman does not have blood on his hands?

Seeing that he didn't speak, Orros continued to shout: "Uncle, do you know that my eldest uncle and second uncle fought against the guards, and all the adult men in the family died in the battle. It is not a wise man to strike an egg against a stone. You treat me so well. I can't bear to see you." Repeat the mistakes of my uncle and my second uncle." After hearing this, Elden Ubash's body shook violently and began to tremble unconsciously.

Seeing that his attitude seemed to be relaxed, Orros slowed down his tone and said, "I have a letter from the commander-in-chief here. Whether you are willing to surrender or not, please read the letter before talking. Why don't you let me go to the city for a drink? A cup of hot tea?”

"Alas!" Elden Ubas sighed and ordered his surroundings, "Let him enter the city."

"Uncle, this is a letter written by the commander-in-chief to you." Orros presented the letter without recalling the past and was straightforward.

Ilden Ubas opened the letter and was immediately frightened. "We are here with a hundred thousand troops. If we surrender, we will protect our wealth, but if we fight, we will leave no chickens or dogs behind." This short line is full of murderous intent. The old man immediately imagined in his mind the horrific scene of his whole family being massacred if he resisted. After a while, he asked something silly, "Is there really a hundred thousand troops outside the city?"

Orros bowed and saluted, "My nephew dare not deceive my uncle. Although there are not a hundred thousand people, there are more than 20,000 people. You cannot stop me."

"Yes," Elden Ubash nodded, "I am old, and I would not regret dying. I am just worried that some of your brothers and nephews will not die well after they surrendered to the army."

"You are worrying too much," Orros smiled, "Your grandniece is now Queen David. She will enjoy endless glory and wealth after surrendering to the throne, so what is there to worry about?"

After hearing this, Elden Ubas finally made up his mind to surrender, "I'm old and can't control that much. I'll leave it to Changshengtian to decide whether it's a blessing or a disaster."

Su He chose a flat land by the Emin River as the place to surrender. In order to prevent the enemy from pretending to surrender, troops were deployed all around.

There was no false surrender. The defenders honestly formed a team of a hundred people, arrived at the designated place, abandoned their weapons and disarmed themselves, and were taken to another place by the guards to be reorganized. The whole process was very smooth and without any disturbance.

Seeing that the enemy was so obedient, Su He couldn't help but sigh, "It is said that the Junggar soldiers and horses are powerful and wild and difficult to control. But when I saw them today, it was nothing more than that."

Obodui Wulanghai laughed when he heard this, "My Majesty, Emperor David Qianyuan, is the Buddha to whom destiny belongs, so the people from Junggar will surrender in hope. Besides, the main person who surrendered this time was Durbo who was attached to herding in Junggar. This special person is from Her Royal Highness the Queen’s family, and she does not want to be an enemy of David.”

Su He nodded when he heard the words, looked at the rushing Emin River in the distance, and suddenly sighed: "I am willing to ride the long wind and break thousands of miles of waves for David!"
