Chapter 1662 This is the right way
That is, on the night when Li Chengliang was preparing to attack Hada City, the nest of Hada tribe, the envoy sent by Menggu Boluo to Liaoyang to seek peace arrived.
Zhu Yiliu was about to go to bed, but Chen Ju urgently reported that someone from Hada's army came to ask for an audience.
"Has someone come to Hada's tribe?"
"Yes, come and say you want to meet the Lord."
"What's the matter?"
"I'm here to ask for peace, I beg Long live to withdraw my troops." Chen Ju reported truthfully.
"Please withdraw the troops?" Zhu Yili's face darkened. "It was them who jumped up to resist, and it was them who begged to withdraw the troops, and it was them who were having fun."
"Long live the Lord, that's right, I should teach Hada's troops some lessons." Chen Ju echoed.
"Please come in." Zhu Yili waved his hand.
"Abide by the order." Chen Ju turned his head and quickly attracted the envoy of Hada's tribe.
The messenger turned out to be a Liao person, not a Jurchen person, so he spoke without any obstacles. As soon as he came in, he crawled down and begged:
"His Majesty the Emperor, Menggu Boluo, the chief of the Hada tribe, sent a villain to ask His Majesty to withdraw his troops. The Hada tribe will become a naturalized Ming Dynasty from then on and will never rebel."
"What did you do?" Zhu Yiliu was lukewarm or hot.
"The first one was just because the chief had a dispute with General Li, and the Hada tribe did not want to be an enemy with the Ming Dynasty. The chief later reflected and repented and sent someone to negotiate with General Li. Unfortunately, General Li refused to obey and vowed to destroy the Hada tribe."
"Why argue?"
"Because General Li wanted to check the troops of Hada's army, and the chief believed that this was an internal incident of Hada's army, so he refused to cooperate, and a dispute broke out."
"I'm afraid this is just an excuse?" Zhu Yili said majesticly, "Actually, Hada's tribe has long been determined to resist. Do you want to test my determination like Nurhaci? Or do you want to test the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong army? I will give you a chance."
"No, Your Majesty the Emperor, the Chief really didn't think so. He just contradicted General Li because of impulse, but who knew?"
"Just an impulse?" Zhu Yili shook his head and snorted in his nose, "Don't talk nonsense in front of me. If it's an impulse, why did you gather the other eight divisions to join forces and invite the Mongolian Korqin division? It's clear that you are deliberately challenging the Ming Dynasty."
"Not this, not like this..." The messenger was so anxious that he wanted to cry.
"Hmph, you are provoking, and you are also seeking peace. If you want to provoke, you provoke. If you want to make peace, you ask for peace? I have said a long time ago that I hope to promote ethnic policy peacefully, but I will never give up force. General Li understood my will, so he did not agree to seek peace."
"But your Majesty really hopes to see General Li destroy Hada's army? The two armies will surely suffer countless casualties and injuries. Hada's army will suffer from the suffering of life."
"When I jumped up and resisted, did you expect that today would be there? Besides, as far as I know, the Hada tribe and our Ming army have fought twice in Hada City. Why didn't you surrender to General Li at the beginning? Why didn't you come to ask me for help? Did you know that several armies gathered in Hada City? That's why you chief was afraid and decided to seek peace?" Zhu Yili asked.
"But even so, His Majesty the Emperor should give us a chance to correct us!"
"Give you a chance? I have given you a lot of opportunities." Zhu Yiliu said, "I have been in charge of Liaodong for half a year. I have accepted Mongolian and the news about the Jurchen tribes have already told you that I have been waiting for you to take the initiative to become naturalized, but which tribe has taken the initiative?"
A brief pause.
"Later, seeing that you did not respond, I specially convened another mobilization meeting, but you still did not respond; after arresting Nurhaci, you still did not respond; I had to send General Li to implement it one by one, but I was resisted by you. Do you think this is why I did not give you a chance?"
"..." The messenger was speechless.
"If I give you all the chances like this, then in the future, other tribes will find an excuse to jump up and make trouble. What should I do if I ask? As far as I know, the Hada tribe has long been rebelling and has been operating in secret, otherwise they would not have gathered eight tribes in an instant."
"I don't know these little ones..."
"You don't know, but I know what your chief is looking for. I have said a long time ago that you will never tolerate those who resist." Zhu Yiliu said strongly.
"Please forgive us with magnanimity." The envoy kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"Let's capture your chief to Liaoyang first."
"But General Li is not just accusing the chief of our tribe. He wants to destroy the Hada tribe and let the Hada tribe disappear on this land from then on. This is what General Li said in person." The envoy said anxiously.
"What do you want me to do?"
"I beg His Majesty the Emperor to issue an order immediately to allow the other three armies to retreat, and at the same time, General Li gave up the idea of destroying Hada's tribe, so as not to suffer from the misfortune."
"Then let you continue to resist, right?"
"No, we are willing to be naturalized in the Ming Dynasty and have no different intentions."
"Then you must escort your chief to Liaoyang to Falu first."
"The chief can come to Liaoyang, but he still begs His Majesty to issue an order to prevent General Li from destroying Hada's tribe, otherwise Hada's tribe will really disappear."
"I believe General Li will be responsible."
"His Majesty the Emperor--"
"No need to say more, the three armies have set out, so how can they retreat?" Zhu Yili waved his hand at Chen Ju, intending to see off the guests.
Chen Ju said worriedly: "Long live, do you need to send someone to inform General Li? If General Li really sieges Hada's troops, I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? As long as Hada's army surrenders, I believe that General Li will be responsible and will not kill innocent people. But if Menggu Boluo insists on resisting and refuses to obey, why should I issue an order?"
"Oh." Chen Ju nodded thoughtfully.
"Besides," Zhu Yiliu continued, "The disappearance of Hada tribe is not a tribe of Hada tribe. After becoming a naturalized Ming Dynasty, all tribes will disappear and will no longer appear in the form of tribes. This is the general trend."
"I understand." Chen Ju understood it.
"So whether the innocent will be affected depends on the attitude of Hada's troops," Zhu Yiliu said, "not whether I need to order the withdrawal of troops."
"Did you understand?" Chen Ju asked the messenger.
"..." The messenger shook his head.
"The meaning of "The Lord of Life" is that as long as the Hada tribe is sincere and unwilling to resist, General Li will be responsible and there is no need for the Lord of Life to issue an edict. But if the Hada tribe is determined to resist, he is seeking peace at this moment because he is afraid of being destroyed, and not sincerely becoming a naturalized Ming Dynasty, then the Lord of Life does not need to issue an edict to withdraw his troops. Therefore, it depends on your own attitude, not whether the Lord of Life wants to issue an edict." Chen Ju explained patiently.
Pause for a moment.
Chen Ju then instructed: "So what you should do is not to ask Long Live to issue an order to withdraw the troops, but should go back immediately to tell your chief, let him put down his weapons and lead the tribes to become a citizen of the Ming Dynasty sincerely. This is the right way, do you understand?"
