Chapter 364 Is the war coming again?
The unfortunate encounter of the Xia delegation reached Ulutus two days later. And Li Dewang, as the chief envoy, was still missing. Li Bianqiu, a scholar of Huiyou Pavilion, was lucky. After the ship sank, he was rushed downstream with three or two guards and was rescued by the kind-hearted Ming people. Later, the other party knew that something was wrong, so he took the initiative to report his identity to the centurion of Guangling Town for help. After this, he uploaded it layer by layer, and Ulutus knew it.
Faced with such a change, Ulutus immediately summoned the deputy commander of the secret guard, Zabetti. The other party came from Mobei and originally belonged to the Krei tribe. After being annexed by the Khanate, the tribe of the Krei tribe was divided into different Mongolian princes.
When Ulutus split the family, Zabeti assigned him as a guard. After the establishment of the old Ming Guard, Ulutus felt that the former secret guard commander Shimadocha was too powerful and the secret guard held too much power, so he specially promoted an old minister who started his own business.
In terms of ability, Zhabiti must not be able to catch up with Shimadocha. Otherwise, it would not have been so long before he was given such a key position. But in terms of loyalty, Ulutus was very relieved about it. For this reason, Zhabiti knew how his status came about. Therefore, he kept a proper position with Shimadocha in the secret guards.
During this tour, he had always been with Ulutus. From Goryeo to Jeju Island, he is now a province in Shandong. Although he can't be with Ulutus at all times, he can ask for Ulutus at any time. He is also a favor that ordinary Ming ministers cannot ask for.
As for the original commander Shimadocha, he continued to stay in Shangjing and supervised the place for Ulutus.
Just as he was taken to the hall, Ulutus asked him: "How many people do we have on Shandong East Road? If you want to find someone, are you sure you can find it?"
Li Dewang was the next king of Xia State, and he was very kind to the Ming State. In the old year, he proposed to Ming State to unite and attack the Khanate together, which made the Khanate be attacked from both sides and had no time to attack other countries.
Such initiative is very consistent with Ulutus' wishes.
Moreover, Ulutus, who is familiar with history, also knew that it was at the hands of this king that he had killed the famous uncle. Although the price was that Zhongxing Mansion was slaughtered, it had nothing to do with the Ming Kingdom.
As long as the other party can play a normal role and endure his uncle to death, everything will be fine.
Therefore, Ulutus never wanted to see Li Dewang die like this, and then the direction of history became unsure.
Upon hearing this, Zabeti immediately took out a list from his arms and presented it to Ulutus and said, "When the king came, he had already counted it. This is a list, with about 468 people. However, the territory of the east and west roads of Shandong is very chaotic, so the secret guards have also lost a lot."
There are more and more rules in the chaotic places. The secret guards are not powerful people with high martial arts skills. Moreover, due to ambush, they should try to pretend to be ordinary people. Although they have methods of protecting themselves, they will never be invulnerable to swords and guns. They will not be injured or killed.
As the secret guards grow in recent years, many spies affiliated with the secret guards have also suffered many casualties. Many of them have died because of failed missions, but have been killed by thieves, seriously injured by foot, or died of illness when infected, or other accidents.
Unlike the Ming soldiers who charged on the battlefield, their deaths were shameless. Although they were for the Ming Dynasty, the government could not commend and sympathize with them. Therefore, their deaths were often desolate. Sometimes after a long time, the commander above found that the chess piece had not moved, and realized that it was dead.
Ulutus understood this and felt that it was difficult for ordinary people to defend themselves. But in this way, there was no other way except to teach them more ways to save their lives and secretly increase their compassion for their families.
After watching the list for a while, there were numbers and disguised identities of these spies on it. However, there was no real name. This is a secret in the secret. If you have to find their real names, you can only search in the corresponding file.
Ulutus focused on spies from the Yidu Mansion. Because according to Li Bianyou, when they fell into the river, they were washed away by the water. After climbing the river bank, Guangling Town notified their people to search along the river bank and found signs of fire on the north bank, as well as shoes that Li Dewang and his guards dropped.
Maybe they encountered some emergency situation at that time, so they didn't even have time to wear dried shoes.
Without further ado, Ulutus ordered Zabeti to mobilize people and do his best to search for the whereabouts of Li Dewang and others. At the same time, the Ming Dynasty would also search vigorously in Weizhou.
As for the East and West Road in Shandong, Ulutus plans to teach a lesson.
The refugees in Hebei are an important source of immigration for the Ming Dynasty. The chaotic roads in the east and west of Shandong would hinder the introduction of immigration from the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the smuggling incidents, Wulutus still remembered that the marquis of the places were unwilling to manage the local areas well, which caused bandits to rebel in the neighboring Ming prefectures and counties.
It’s better to do a concerted effort and clean it up directly. If you can occupy it, it’s better.
But the Khan Court will definitely not agree.
But creating a buffer zone is necessary. The chaos on the east and west roads of Shandong must be over.
The Khan Envoy who came from Hejian Prefecture had just left, Ulutus summoned the other party again and refuted it harshly. He asked the other party to restrain the local governments on the east and west roads of Shanxi and handed over the evildoers who had killed Ming merchants and the people. If they could not hand over within twelve hours, they would lead their troops into the east and west roads of Shanxi and arrest them in person.
In such a short time, the messenger rode a horse and brought the message to Bolu, and the other party could not find the murderer. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty obviously made a deliberate embarrassment.
In fact, Ulutus is really trying to make things difficult for him.
The Western Army stationed on the border had already received orders from Ulutus and gathered in Weizhou. In addition to a small number of troops, they continued to be stationed on the border between the Jin and Song countries, others were transferred to the border with the Khanate.
For a moment, the tense atmosphere of the war was about to come immediately spread. The storm trade also stopped suddenly. Those who had a little wealth and had innocent wealth all took their families to Ming Dynasty to avoid the fire.
Businessmen in the Ming Dynasty all played the Shandong Peninsula far away from the border to avoid disaster.
Quandong and Shi Ma Yecong were also anxious to see Ulutus at this time, asking if they were really going to start a war on Shandong and East China Road. This matter was extraordinary!
