"The people of Ming Dynasty didn't do anything to you, right?" Prince Batur asked with concern after receiving Black Snake Princess. He has five sons, but only one daughter, and he still loves his daughter more.
"No, the people of Ming Dynasty still understand the truth. Apart from imprisoning me, they did not torture me or anything?" Black Snake Ji directly denied the matter of being tortured.
How can I say that? How can I still live if I have no shame after saying it?
"Father, have we really surrendered?"
"The power of the Ming army is no longer something that our army can resist. Continuing the fight will only increase casualties. The Great Khan's current fight on the Western Front is not going well. Failure to surrender will lead to death. The Ming army has always treated those who surrendered favorably.
The people in the north are an example. They have been granted official positions one by one and are enjoying the prosperity and prosperity. The current situation is better to be reduced. Let’s see what happens in the future. If there is a chance, we can seek big things again.”
"Father, the Ming Dynasty is so powerful, do we still have a chance?"
Prince Batur lowered his head and sighed: "Hey, it's time and destiny. The Ming Dynasty is too strong now. It's only been a few years. Look at what kind of firearms their army is equipped with. The equipment of any Shenji Battalion soldier is better than
We have the most sophisticated Black Snake cavalry, artillery, tanks, and equipment that can fly into the sky. How can we fight with the Ming Dynasty having these things?"
"Father, we have surrendered. The Ming Dynasty will not trust us easily. They will definitely find a way for you to fight the Great Khan. Only in this way can we gain the trust of the Ming Dynasty."
"How could I not know, but since we have surrendered, we can only obey their orders and serve as vanguard for others."
How can a defeated army be brave?
But since he took this step, there was no way out, and he made this choice after an inner struggle.
If he doesn't surrender, loses the Turpan-Verumu line here, and loses the entire eastern part of Chagatai, even if he runs back to Waisi Khan, he will still be a big sinner of Chagatai. Don't even think about continuing to be the prince, and because of other
Because of his high position and authority, the Great Khan was quite afraid and might take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of him.
To put it another way, how long can the Chagatai Khanate survive if the Great Khan refuses to convict him regardless of his past grievances?
If you surrender now, you can still work in the Ming Dynasty, but there is still a contingency to ensure that you can accumulate strength in the future. If you surrender after the country is destroyed, you will be a minister who has subjugated the country. Everyone will be beaten and homeless. In your position,
If you don't do it well, you'll be executed.
Whichever is the lesser of two evils.
"Father, the Han prince sent by the Ming Dynasty this time still has the style of the Ming Dynasty emperor. Zhu Zhanyu, the king of Lanzhou County, used his troops like a god to break our alliance with the Tatars. Zhu Zhanyu, the king of Zhujiang County, is sitting in the rear. Although he is a despicable person,
He is a shameless, cunning and rickety little man who is only 1.5 meters tall, but it is undeniable that the Zhu family's royal family has produced many talented people for at least three generations."
Prince Batur sighed helplessly. No matter how he calculated it, there seemed to be no chance.
"Father, please arrange for people to enter the Ming Dynasty. If you don't want to instigate rebellion from within, at least you can get first-hand information and protect your father's safety."
"How can it be that simple?"
"I have a plan."
"Oh? Tell me." Black Snake Girl whispered in Prince Batur's ear.
…
The news of the western expedition to the Chagatai Khanate, the surrender of Prince Batur, and the capture of the three cities of Verumu, Tingzhou, and Turpan was sent back to Shuntian Prefecture. The whole country celebrated. The crown prince hurriedly ordered people to send the news to the northern front.
Zhu Di in battle.
When Zhu Zhanji received the news, he was about to hit the fishing sea. Seeing his two younger brothers conquering the eastern part of Chagatai with his second uncle, he became even more eager to achieve immortality.
"Sirs, our army has won a great victory in the Western Expedition. All the cities and lands in the eastern part of the Chagatai Khanate have fallen into the territory of our dynasty. You will follow me on the expedition to include the Yuerhai Sea in our territory."
"Great grandson is mighty!!"
"Great grandson is mighty!!"
Zhu Zhanchen raised his arms and shouted, and the whole army was excited. It was good to have such good news to stimulate the morale of the army before the war.
Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief after looking at the incoming newspaper. He held out the newspaper and floated it out with the breeze on the grassland. He coughed twice and showed a happy smile: "All the children and grandchildren of the Zhu family are good.
My sons and grandsons will be the best in history."
"Your Majesty is blessed, Ming Dynasty is blessed."
"Pass on my edict, Prince Baltu knows the general situation, understands the affairs, calms the war between the two countries, and prevents the people from suffering. He is known as a virtuous man. He is specially given the title of King Jin Han. Lu Mu, the construction committee member, announces that he will be the Chief Secretary. King Jin Han accepts him.
We compiled the army of Mother Lu and went out with the King of Han."
This King Jin Han is just a name and allows him to continue to command the original army. These armies still listen to him, but he has to fight for the Ming Dynasty, show his role and show his loyalty.
After receiving the reward, Batur felt relieved. The Ming Dynasty had always treated those who surrendered preferentially, especially to foreigners.
Except for the Ming Dynasty, other ethnic groups basically do not accept foreigners. For example, the Chagatai Khanate and Timur are at war. If Timur's general surrenders, the Chagatai Khanate will basically not accept him, but
The Ming Dynasty can accept both the Chagatai Khanate and the Mobei people.
This can make victory come faster, but it also has certain hidden dangers, and those who are not of my race will have different intentions.
The Jiedushi of the Tang Dynasty is a precedent. With this example, Zhu Di will not let the foreign leaders become too powerful. The main reason is that Zhu Di does not have to worry so much. These people cannot change the current national power of the Ming Dynasty. After two generations of culture, they will
Assimilated by Ming Dynasty.
His greatest confidence is that his children and grandchildren are all capable. He believes that his son can continue to suppress these foreign races, and he is afraid that one day a useless boy will appear.
After Zhu Di's edict came down, when they arrived at Jiayuguan, Zhu Zhanzhen personally took the edict to Weelumu, also to see Prince Batur.
When Zhu Zhanzhen rode a black horse to the gate of Verumu City, Prince Batur looked at his daughter Black Snake Ji in disbelief at the first sight of him.
What Black Snake Girl and him describe is that Zhu Zhanyang, the king of Zhujiang County, is a short, stooped, despicable villain with a wretched smile.
But who is this tall, handsome man in front of me who is over 1.8 meters tall?
Did you see a ghost?
"I see His Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County." Prince Batur knew that the Prince of Zhujiang County was the commander-in-chief of the Ming army behind the formation, and his power was not inferior to that of Zhu Gaoxu, so he kept his posture very low.
The most important thing was that he learned that tanks and other things were created by the Prince of Zhujiang County, and he was really convinced.
"King Jin Han, there is no need to be too polite. All we need to do is serve your majesty and do our best. In so many years, your majesty has never given you the throne and military power at the same time. I hope King Jin Han can understand your majesty's intentions."
"I am deeply grateful for your majesty's kindness, and I should do my best to serve your majesty and fight for the Ming Dynasty. As a common man, I will not be rewarded for my merits, and I will not eat the rice that I have contributed to. I am willing to accompany the king of Han in the western expedition to show my heart."
This look of sincerity at least shows that I have put in the effort.
Zhu Zhanzhen glanced at Black Snake Girl out of the corner of his eye, and Black Snake Girl was looking at him.
Batur said with a smile: "Your Highness, I went on an expedition with the King of Han, but, alas, I only have one daughter, who is weak but knows etiquette. My daughter once told me that she was able to avoid torture thanks to your Highness's care when she was captured. Your Majesty, I have only one daughter."
Thank you very much for knowing.”
"King Jin Han is too polite."
"My little daughter has no one to take care of me after I go to war. I hope that my little daughter can take care of His Highness. This is a worry for me."
Zhu Zhanzhen was shocked, but his expression remained unchanged. What is going on? Black Snake Girl should hate me. Is there a Stockholm complex, or is it a deliberate revenge? But now King Jin Han has brought it up,
He just said so many words of loyalty.
Not only do you want to fight for the Ming Dynasty, but you also want to give me a daughter. I can't find any reason to refuse.
In Black Snake Ji's eyes, Zhu Zhanyi was the one who brought her humiliation, but in fact, only she and Zhu Zhanyi knew about this humiliation. Think about it from another angle, wouldn't it be shameful to marry him?
.
There is nothing shameful about letting your husband see the light. If he wants to see it, just go ahead and see it.
What is this wave called? This wave is called looking at problems from another angle.
Zhu Gaoxu, who was watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, seemed to have known about it for a long time. Batur should have discussed it with him before, and he immediately said: "Don't worry, King Jin Han, I know that my nephew, who is the most gentle and elegant, will definitely not
We will treat Princess Alia badly, and we will be our own family from now on. Let’s go and have a drink.”
Zhu Gaoxu raised his eyebrows at Zhu Zhanzhen.
What's the name of this wave? I've called my wife and added more troops.
