Chapter 2 Sarai
A small team walks on the desert northwest of Astrakhan.
The boy died. In addition to Saren'erji, Chu Hur and Bayar, the three of them were escorted to Astrakhan, and ten of them were all warriors of Turkuts. Of course, when Salai arrived in Astrakhan, except for Saren'erji, who was considered "decaying wood" by the Russian side, the rest of the people were within their scope of their enlistment. However, with the death of the boy, there was no need for these people to stay in the city.
The high-ranking official of Astrakhan Province, the Earl Takischev let him leave openly. Of course, before leaving, he naturally repeatedly told him to report to Turgut after going back.
"The boy fled alone and fled to death, and had nothing to do with the Russian side."
Takisev said right, the boy did take the time to escape, and he accidentally fell into a swamp and died. With his medical level at this time, even if the Russians want to treat him, they would not be able to get it.
However, after they caught the teenager, they did not change their clean and warm clothes, but Takisev thought it was irrelevant.
At this time, Russia had a population of about 30 million, and it was the largest country in the European continent. It was easy to suppress a small Turkut tribe. Although the death of the boy was somewhat related to his usual humiliation and discrimination against the boy, he would not think so at all. Instead, he believed that the boy was seeking death.
In order to prevent Chu Huer and others from talking nonsense, Takisev still sent a captain of the Astrakhan Legion cavalry, his nephew Victor led five legion cavalry and five Cossacks to follow.
In addition, at the winter station of Turgut Khan Dunrobulash, Vitlingka on the west bank of the Volga River, there are also the commander of the Legion Spiden, with two inside and outside present. Takisev believes that there will be no accident.
After Salay died, under the negotiations of Bayar, who was proficient in Russian, Takishyev "gracefully" gave up a piece of beech wood about two meters long and one meter in diameter, and one piece of five-color silk, making Saren'eji a prayer flag.
According to the tradition of the Turkuts, the coffin that holds the remains after death is made of a whole piece of wood to hollow out its belly. Now the body of the boy is placed in such a coffin, and the lid on the coffin also comes from this piece of wood.
The coffin was carried by eight strong Turkish men, and the other Mongolians were also walking with their horses, trekking hard on the muddy desert after the first snow.
However, Victor and others were riding on the horse and following behind, which made Chu Huer and others very dissatisfied. Even the Russian fluent language, the balance in Bayar, who was almost pulled by Takisev, began to shift towards Turgut.
However, even the Great Khan Dunlublash, who had three thousand regular cavalry under his command, had no choice but to have any help from Takishev, let alone Chu Huer and others?
Chu Huer is tall and majestic. Although he is only eighteen years old, his figure has grown completely, with small eyes, wide cheekbones, and sparse beards on his lips.
He was a small Taiji of the Huit tribe. When the ancestors of the Turkut people and Orlek moved westward, in addition to the Turkut headquarters, he also followed him to other tribes in Europe, such as the Heshuot tribe, Junggar tribe, and Dulbert tribe.
In addition to the above mentioned, there are naturally other tribes, such as the herdsmen who moved from the right-wing Jasaktu Khan tribe and the Tohwaite tribe, and the Huitite tribe to Jinshan and Tianshan.
After the Huit tribe moved to Weilat, he naturally could not survive and had to join one of the four tribes. Due to his weak strength and had to be completely loyal to the four tribes, Chu Huer was the descendant of Taiji, a few small Huit tribes who moved westward with Orluke.
After the Huit tribe joined the four tribes, it became a tribe similar to the Kalaqin (Guardian Tribe) and Korqin (Divine Arrow Knight Tribe) that guarded the king's tent, and was the most important object of the chiefs of each tribe except for their headquarters.
Chu Huer walked in front with a long wooden stick about the thickness of a child's arms. Although the wind was cold, he was not afraid at all. He still walked with his head held high and his chest held high. After walking dozens of miles, everyone was a little tired, but he still had the strength to do it.
The other nine warriors were picked out from the Khshuot tribe, Dulbert tribe, Junggar tribe, Huit tribe, Khalkha tribe and headquarters, and followed the teenagers since childhood.
As soon as these people arrived in Astrakhan, they were arranged by Takischev in the Cossack camp and were also bullied by Cossacks. They finally had a chance to leave now. Although the young master died of illness, most of them looked relaxed.
But Chu Huer and Bayar of the Hoshuo Special tribe are different. According to the rules of the Turkuts, the eldest son of the Khan will designate three people to serve him for life. Generally speaking, these three people will become the next Khan's Dazaisang (Chief Administrator), the second Dazaisang (Personal Commander), and the Dalama.
Although Bayar came from the most noble Khsot tribes of the four self-defense Rats and was a descendant of the Golden Family, he was not good at martial arts. After witnessing the powerful force of Tsarist Russia, Persia, Ottomans and Sweden, he knew that the nomadic era of the prairie had ended.
Therefore, he turned his interest to government affairs, and he had a lot of knowledge about the language and system of Tsarist Russia, Persia, and Ottoman. Of course, if there were no major accidents, he would assist Dazaisan as the third Zaisan to handle the government affairs of the entire Khanate.
Since he was sent by Lash to follow the boy to Astrakhan, he was different from others. Instead, he took the initiative to accept the favor of Takishyev and others, and had been involved in the military, government affairs, religion and diplomacy. If the boy had not escaped and died suddenly, he might have become an Orthodox.
In his opinion, even if he becomes the third Zaisang in the future, he will still be incomparable to the famous Jiaen family of the Khan tribe.
The so-called Jiaen family refers to the family formed by Jiaen, the wife of the former Khan Dunbrowwangbu, and several children.
At this time, in the area north of the Caucasus Mountains, except for the Chechens, Tsarist Russia turned all the Tatars living near the Kuban River into Cuban people. Among them, the Cherks had long been attracted by Tsarist Russia and had a deep marriage with the Normanov royal family.
Adidas are still half-herderly and half-agricultural, and are close to Tsarist Russia.
The remaining tribes were divided into several ethnic groups in later generations, but at this time they were collectively called by the Tsarist Russians
"Kalbakins", before Tsarist Russia approached the Kuban River, the leader of the Kalbakins claimed to be the Great Khan, and Jaen was the daughter of the Great Khan. He was secretly appointed as Zhonggenhatun (Queen) by Dunluo Buwangbu. However, because the Jaen family believed in the *** religion, it was not recognized by tribal nobles.
This was noticed by the Russians. They strongly supported Jaen and his children, allowing him to inherit the ranch of Dunluo Buwangbu, and allowed everyone in his family to convert to Orthodox religion and change the Russian name. They originally wanted to let Jaen's eldest son Lan Duel inherit the Khan throne after Wanbu's death, but was strongly opposed by other nobles of the tribe, and Lan Duel was eventually defeated and died.
However, Jaen and her other two sons still occupy the elegant pasture from Taritzin to the banks of the Volga River on both sides of the Saratov, and together with Volga Cossacks, the Germans who were moved here by Queen Elizabeth to guard the southern border of the empire.
After Jaen surrendered to Tsarist Russia, he changed his name to Dundukva, his eldest son Daudibi changed his name to Alexei Dundukov, and his second son Ashalai changed his name to Peter Dundukov, which was to pay tribute to the two great Tsars, Alexei and Peter, the Tsarist Russian Empire.
Since the Dundukov family, no matter who ascended the Khan throne, the second largest force within the tribe was the Dundukov family, so Bayar had this idea.
However, Bayar is a descendant of the Golden Family with a strong root and has always believed in Lamaism. It is different from the pagans like Jaen who came from the Kuban Tatars. Therefore, although he envies the Jaen family, he is a little disgusted.
Among the eight people carrying the coffin, the head was a young man with a tall figure not as tall as Chu Huer, but also very strong. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old. His eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to those of the young man, but he was even more fierce, and his expression was very different from everyone else.
It can be seen that he was very sad, the kind of real sadness, tears kept appearing as he walked. His name was Tichina, and his meaning was the Canglang of Mongolia. He came from the Lash branch. He started serving the young man at the age of ten. If there were no accidents, he would be one of the five great slaughtered Khan of Turgut.
He was so sad, naturally, not because he could not be Zaisang in the future, but because he lost the tribe Huntaiji who had always treated him well, the first successor to the next Khan, and his brother who was like him.
Some people say that Techi is Lash's illegitimate son, but he comes from an ordinary herdsman family. Lash is lustful, if he likes someone, just send someone to come and tell him. Why should he hide so much?
But the boy's mother does come from his tribe.
Among the ten guards of the young man, Techina ranked second, showing Lash's trust in him.
After walking for dozens of miles, when they saw Techina's expression, the others were embarrassed to continue to relax and had to pretend to be sad. Later, they thought of the young master's favor for them all the time, and the pretend to be sad also turned into real sadness.
This scene was discovered by Victor who was dragged behind.
"These Kalmyks looked relaxed at the beginning, as if the death of Saray was nothing to them, but now they are in pain. What's going on?"
Salai is the name of the young man, and his full name is Dunluobu Salai. Dunluobu means achievement in Tibetan, which is the Dunzhu of later generations. Salai, and the meaning of light. It is connected to it to "a person who achieves greatness and has a bright future."
After Lash ascended the throne, he was stared by the Russians very closely. Whenever a son was born, as long as he was over six years old, he would be sent to Astrakhan as a charity. Lash naturally had a way to deal with it. His second son, Obasi, was born secretly, but on the surface he only had one son.
The Turgut unit was also divided into several parts. The mother of Salay came from a tribe second only to Lash, so it was naturally extremely noble. Since the tribe is divided into various parts, the descendants of Ayuqi Khan have never stopped fighting for power and profit. Therefore, Lash attaches great importance to Salay's mother's tribe, and naturally also attaches great importance to this son.
While Saray was condemning, he secretly sent several people to Astrakhan to try to take him back, but none of them succeeded. Now that his only son is dead, God knows what Lash will do.
At this moment, Tie Chi, who was carrying the coffin, suddenly felt a slight movement from the wooden pole on his shoulder. The movement was not caused by the rugged and bumpy road.
