Heduo and Qin inspected the many treasures and goods brought by Sony in person, and expressed that they were quite satisfied. Then they invited Sony to sit down and asked directly: "I wonder why the Qing envoy came to Boxeri?"

Sony didn't mince words and said directly: "On the order of the Qing Emperor, I asked Baltu Hutaiji to send troops to deal with the Ming Dynasty."

Heduo and Qin smiled and said: "I heard that you were driven out by the Ming people last winter, and lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and even many tribes in Khalkha suffered heavy losses.

Why, have you regained your strength so quickly and are you ready to invade the Ming Kingdom again?"

Obviously, the news from Heduo and Qin was lagging behind. They did not know how strong the Ming army was now, nor did they know that the Ming army was attacking the Qing Dynasty. They thought that the Qing Dynasty was about to invade the territory of the Ming Dynasty again.

It’s no wonder that Heduo and Qin think so. In fact, in the past ten or twenty years, the Jurchens have invaded the Ming Dynasty too many times, almost like following in their own backyard.

Although the Qing army was defeated in the Ming Dynasty the year before last and was driven out of the Pass, Heduo and Qin did not carefully understand the changes in the Ming Dynasty in the past two years. They only knew that the Ming Dynasty had a female emperor.

As for how powerful the Ming army was, he did not have an accurate understanding. He subconsciously believed that they were at most similar to the elite Ming frontier troops.

In addition, the political situation of the Ming Dynasty has been volatile in recent decades. If there were any major changes in the political situation of the Ming Dynasty, it is possible that the military's combat effectiveness would decline rapidly. It would not be unusual for the Qing army to take the opportunity to invade the territory of the Ming Dynasty again.

Sony set out in March and walked for more than a month before arriving in Oara. Therefore, he did not know that the Ming army had already recovered Liaodong, and thought that the Ming army was probably still fighting Wu Sangui and Geng Zhongming.

Therefore, he carried out his mission to Wala as originally planned.

He said: "Dear Batur Hutaiji, the female emperor of the Ming Dynasty has a great appetite. She has been confiscating the money of rich people in the country and using it as military expenditure, just for military expansion.

Now, she is launching a large army and preparing to attack our Qing Dynasty.

Our Qing Dynasty was damaged in the Ming Dynasty before and has not yet recovered its strength. If it is attacked again this time, it is likely that the Ming Dynasty will get the land in western Liaoning.

In that case, the strength of the Ming Kingdom will become stronger, and Queen Zhaowu's ambition will further grow. She will never be satisfied with the territory in the east, and will also set her sights on the northwest.

Dear Batur Hutaiji should know that some of the areas that are now nomadic in Jungar were once the territory of the Han people many years ago.

Therefore, if the Ming Dynasty took a fancy to Zhungeer's pasture, they would have sufficient reasons to launch a war.

A smart hunter will not wait until bears and wolves attack him before taking action, but will take advantage of the opportunity and strike first.

So, respected Batur Hutaiji, why don’t you take advantage of the fact that the Ming Dynasty has not yet become truly powerful and that they have concentrated their troops in the east to attack the Qing Dynasty, and teach them a lesson first?”

Sony was considered a famous academic among the young generation of the Qing Dynasty. He could speak Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan, Chinese, Korean and other languages, and his eloquence was very good.

This time he came well prepared, his words were well-founded, and his purpose was obvious - he hoped that the Zhungeer tribe would lead the Oara Alliance to send troops to attack the Ming Dynasty.

As leaders who have been in power for more than ten years and have brought the Jungar tribe to a new level, Heduo and Qin may have limited knowledge, but they do not lack wisdom.

He really didn't pay much attention to the changes in the Ming Dynasty originally, but when Sony said this, he felt keenly that the changes that were taking place in the Ming Dynasty might not be simple.

So, he pinched his chin with a beard, looked at Sony for a while, and said: "The attack on the Ming Kingdom is a big matter, and it cannot be decided easily. Besides, there is not only one leader in Oirat now... So, please invite the Qing envoy Go and rest first, I will tell you when I make a decision."

Sony was a little unwilling and a little anxious when he didn't get Heduo and Qin's face-to-face commitment.

Although he did not know that the Ming army had conquered Shenyang, he also knew that the Qing could not sustain the Ming army's offensive for too long.

'If there is no reply from the Jungar tribe after three days, I will go to the other leader of Oirat, the leader of the Heshuote tribe, Oqiltu.'

Sony thought so when he was resettled by people from the Zhungeer tribe.

The previous leader of Heshuote died, and his younger brother Gushi Khan should have succeeded him. However, Gushi Khan led his troops to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and became the ruler there. The position of leader of Heshuote fell to Gushi Khan. It was in the hands of his nephew, Eqirtu, the eldest son of Gushi Khan's brother.

In other words, the current Heshuo Special Department is actually divided into two parts.

Some of them followed Gushi Khan to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and the other part, under the leadership of Eqirtu, continued their nomadic life in their hometowns in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, and they are still one of the four major tribes of the Oara Alliance.

Now it is the leader of the Oara Alliance together with the Zhungeer tribe.

Therefore, the leader of the Heshuote tribe, Oqiltu, also has a great say in Wala.

On the other side, after Sony left, Heduo and Qin had people call in some of the sons he valued, and finally said: "Let people bring Galdan here too."

After a while, Heduo and Qin's eldest son Chechen (Wisdom), second son Zhuoteba and fifth son Sengge rushed to the palace one after another.

Among the three sons, Chechen and Zotba were born to the same mother, but their mother has passed away. They are both in their twenties, and Chechen is in his thirties.

However, the grassland people do not value the eldest son, but pay more attention to the younger son. Moreover, Chechen Sulai lacks a reputation and does not have much influence in the Zhungeer tribe.

His younger brother Zotba, because of his bravery and Chechnya's intentional help, has a high reputation in the tribe and is considered to have great hope of inheriting the position of leader.

Sengge and Galdan were born to the same mother, and their mother was the daughter of the distinguished Gushi Khan.

Therefore, although Sengge has just turned sixteen, he is highly valued by Heduo and Qin, and has been given many cattle, sheep, tribes and other properties.

As for the third son and the fourth son, their mother's background was very ordinary, and they were all "bastards". They were not valued by Heduo and Qin at all, and they were not qualified to participate in major tribal affairs.

In Chechnya, Zotba was not surprised by the arrival of Sengge, but he was dissatisfied that Galdan, who was less than three years old, was also brought.

But no matter how dissatisfied they were, there was nothing they could do.

He Duo and Qin told the story of Sony's arrival, and then asked their three sons for their opinions.

Zhuo Teba spoke first: "I think the Qing envoy is right. A good hunter will not wait until he is attacked by a wolf before thinking of hunting a wolf. He should take advantage of the opportunity and make the first move.

Since the Ming Dynasty is becoming stronger and may threaten us, we should hurt or even cripple it before it becomes stronger!"

At the end of the sentence, Zotba waved his arms, showing off his strong arms and hard fists.

Chechen said simply: "Father, what Zotba said makes sense."

"Sengge, what do you think?" Heduo and Qin looked at the young Sengge expectantly.

Seng Ge thought for a while and said: "We can't just listen to what the envoy said, we also need to send people to the Ming Dynasty to inquire about more and more specific information.

In addition, we already have a powerful enemy, Tsarist Russia, in the north. If there is a powerful enemy rising in the south, I think what we have to do is not to offend it, but to try to make good friends with it."

Zhuoteba immediately mocked after hearing this, "Do you want to be on good terms with the Ming Dynasty? Sengge, you are really too young and you don't know how arrogant the officials of the Ming Dynasty are.

They are arrogant and weak, how can they be worthy of our friendship? Such a force should be beaten and hurt in order to make it peaceful!"

Sengge was young after all, and his face turned red with anger, but he couldn't organize his words to retort.

Heduo and Qinze smiled and said: "What you said is right - Zhuo Teba, after you and Chechnya go down, you can have more contact with the Qing envoys and try to find out the details of the Qing Dynasty.

Sengge, you can send people to the Ming Dynasty to find out more information, just like you want to do."

"Yes, father!"

After their sons left, Heduo and Qin couldn't help but take out a sheepskin map, looked at the giant thing in the southeast, and murmured: "Ming Dynasty, Empress Zhaowu..."

Hetuala.

The Qing Dynasty, which had just retreated here, showed all kinds of signs of instability in people's hearts, just as Jierhalang said.

The soldiers of the Eight Banners Mongolia and the Eight Banners Han Army are clamoring for better settlements for their families.

Some former tribal leaders of the Eight Banners in Manchuria have begun to quarrel and even fight over some land, hunting grounds, mines and other properties.

As for the Han slaves who were forcibly kidnapped, they finally understood the situation outside and became very restless.

There is an undercurrent surging underneath the entire Hetuala.

Faced with this situation, Dorgon, Daishan, and Jierhalang secretly held several small meetings of three people, and quickly reached an agreement on their ideas.

In the current situation of the Qing Dynasty, they not only had to block the Ming army's attack on Hetuala in the Fushun Pass area, but also needed to find a way for everyone to make up for their losses, or to make a fortune.

Moreover, they are also facing a food crisis.

Given the current situation of the Qing Dynasty, it seems that there is only one way to solve these problems, and that is to go to North Korea to recruit soldiers and food...

Second update.
