Chapter 160: Wanwan Leiqings version of Tuotuo meets with His Highness the Ming Emperor
The will of the Immortal God has come again, and the descendants of Ali Buge will regain the throne of the Mongolian Khan.
There is not only old enmity between Mongolia and the Yuan Dynasty in the desert.
In recent years, the grievances between them have increased a lot.
The Yuan Dynasty's rewards to the host vassal kings were extremely generous, but the rewards to the Mongols in Mongolia were not only much less, but they also repeatedly required their horses and young men to join the army to fight in the war.
The different treatment made the Mongolian Mongolians already resentful towards the Yuan Dynasty. Now that they got the opportunity, Tuolibuhua raised his voice and almost all the Mongolian tribes in the Desert supported Tuolibuhua against the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
Now they are gathered at the foot of Hangai Mountain, just waiting for a suitable opportunity.
Let Ali Buge's descendants sit on the throne of the Mongolian Khan again.
Moreover, not only the various tribes in Mongolia and Mongolia supported the separation of the country but also the Supreme Commander Aruhui Timur, who was appointed by the Yuan Dynasty in the Lingbei Province, now also supports the separation of the country and the country.
With the rapid sound of horse hooves, a group of Mongolian warriors riding horses came to the front surrounded by a gorgeously dressed Mongolian man.
This person was none other than Pingzhang of the Lingbei Province of the Yuan Dynasty, a brother and ally of Tuolibuhua, Aruhui Timur.
Tuolibuhua immediately shouted happily: "My Anda, what good news have you brought now?"
Aruhui Timur also laughed when he saw Tuolibuhua.
"I got news that Wang Baobao will go to war with the Ming army after the beginning of spring. At that time, we will march eastward with our army, cut off the lair of the little emperor Aiyou, and restore our great Mongolian kingdom."
Tuolibuhua laughed happily when he heard the news, "This is really great. Now Aiyou's puppet emperor only has Wang Baobao to count on. As long as Wang Baobao is not here, we can completely take care of the little emperor."
Aiyou will be destroyed."
During the battle between Ali Bu Ge and Kublai Khan, the Mongolians in the Desert did not identify with the Great Yuan Dynasty. Their only identity was the Great Mongolia.
After so many years of differential treatment, Mongolian Mongolia is extremely firm about his identity.
Today, the desert Mongols gradually have another name. They call themselves Wala or Oirat.
Of course, this Wala is not the name of a tribe, but the collective name of several tribes.
Although the relationship between the various tribes in Oara was not so harmonious, they were unanimous in their opposition to the Yuan Dynasty court and the descendants of Kublai Khan.
Now Tuolibuhua and Aluhui Timur lead the Oara tribes to only identify with the Great Mongol Kingdom and not the Yuan Dynasty, which is a declaration of war on the descendants of Kublai Khan.
"The kings of the host country have already been dissatisfied with the matter of Empress Dowager Qi and Wang Baobao. As soon as our Wala army arrives, they will definitely fight back and support Wang Baobao." Tuoli Buhua said confidently.
Aruhui Timur nodded and agreed.
Aruhui Timur was born in the Yuan Dynasty clan.
He was actually a descendant of Kublai Khan, but in the fierce internal battles of the Yuan Dynasty, Aluhui Timur had already had a bloody feud with the descendants of Emperor Yuan Shun.
"As long as our Oara army reaches the banks of the Onan River, it will definitely be able to take down the host kings and the little emperor. As long as our warriors from the Great Mongolia are united, that Han traitor Wang Baobao will definitely be unable to resist. When we get there, we will send our troops south and fight first.
Liaodong, then enter the Central Plains and seize him and turn everything upside down." Aruhui Timur said confidently.
These desert Mongolians live in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains and the Moxi grassland all year round. They have no intuitive impression of the Ming army in the Central Plains. They only feel that the Ming army that drove the Yuan Dynasty back to the grassland must have two brushes, but
If you meet these brave and capable Wara people, you will definitely not be your opponent.
Moreover, although Wang Baobao was born in the Mongolian Bolutai clan, Wang Baobao was born and raised in the Hanzhong Plain, and the education he received was all Han Confucian education. His behavior was like that of ordinary Han people, which was incompatible with the Mongols. His troops were even more
Most of them are Han people.
Under such circumstances, many Mongolians on the grasslands regarded Wang Baobao as an alien and did not regard him as one of their own at all.
What's more, these Oara people in the desert Mongolia feel that Wang Baobao is a Han. As for the Han soldiers under him, they can all be captured and taken back to the tribe as slaves.
The warriors of Changshengtian can only be Mongolians, not Han Chinese.
Just as the Oara people wanted to restore the Great Mongolian Kingdom, there were also people in the Chagatai Khanate to the west of the Oara who were preparing to take action.
This person was none other than Tuluhe Timur, the Great Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
The historical Chagatai Khanate had a vast territory and fertile land, occupying a vast territory from the west of the Tianshan Mountains to the middle of the river.
However, in the struggle for supreme power in the Yuan Dynasty, the Chagatai Khanate stood on the opposite side of Kublai Khan. After Kublai Khan established the Yuan Dynasty, the relationship with the Eastern Chagatai Khanate has not been very harmonious.
The two sides have fought more than ten wars over the Turpan area.
Not long ago, civil strife broke out within the Chagatai Khanate, and splits also occurred. The Chagatai Khanate split into the Western Chagatai Khanate and the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Different from the chaotic Western Chagatai Khanate, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate has a vigorous vitality because it has an orthodox descendant of the Chagatai Khanate, domestic politics is stable, and its military strength is strong.
Tuluhei Timur, the monarch of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, was only in his early twenties at this time. He was in the prime of life. Facing the battle between the Ming army and the Yuan Dynasty in the distance, Tuluhei Timur felt that he was stronger than Chagatai.
The opportunity for the Khanate has come.
Tulukhe Timur led the Eastern Chagatai Khanate to first capture the river in the west, which is the historical Samarkand, and obtained a large amount of tax wealth here.
With the financial support of Samarkand, Tuluhe Timur prepared to attack eastward and capture the entire Turpan region.
However, unlike the Hezhong area, although the Yuan Dynasty forces in the Turpan area did not have many soldiers and horses, their combat effectiveness was very strong, far from being comparable to the weak chickens in Central Asia. I am afraid that it is not possible to rely solely on the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Capture this area.
And not far to the north of Turpan is the desert Mongolia, which is the territory of the Oara people.
The Oara people have never dealt with the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. Once the Eastern Chagatai Khanate marches towards Turpan, the Oara people will definitely go south to support and attack the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
Strong ambition must also be supported by strong strength in order to succeed.
Although Tuluhei Timur is young, he is not reckless. He has a clear analysis of the situation at hand. He knows that if he wants to capture the entire Turpan area, he must obtain a powerful external force to help him contain the Yuan Dynasty.
and the soldiers and horses of Mongolia in the desert.
Looking at the entire world, the only one who can do this is the Ming Dynasty, which just expelled the Mongols from the Central Plains.
The external helper that Khan Turhei Timur of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate thought of was none other than the Ming Dynasty, which occupied the Great Central Plains.
The relationship between the Eastern Chagatai Khanate and the Yuan Dynasty was bad.
Based on the principle that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, the Ming Dynasty was naturally the natural ally of the Chagatai Khanate.
Although I don't know what kind of temper Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor, has, there is already a consensus among the people at the Eastern Chagatai that as long as he keeps his attitude low enough, the Central Plains Ming Dynasty will definitely accept him. After all, having another ally is a very good thing.
Turuhei Timur already knew that the Ming Dynasty now occupies the Lanzhou area in Kansai and is not far from the territory of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. As long as an envoy is sent to contact the Ming army, the two sides can agree on a time to work together.
Send troops to attack the remaining forces of the Yuan Dynasty in Turpan, Shazhou and other places.
For this important task, Tuluhei Timur handed him over to his brother Tutu.
Tuotuo led his men disguised as a caravan, crossed the Mongolian and Yuan-controlled areas in Turpan and Shazhou, and finally arrived in Lanzhou.
The Ming army general stationed in Lanzhou was Chang Yuchun.
Chang Yuchun massacred all directions in the northwest area, killing the surrounding Mongols and forcing them to retreat for hundreds of miles, and they did not dare to approach the Ming army's garrison area.
Therefore, the Ming army in Lanzhou City never expected that a Mongolian caravan came from the west and asked to see the general in command of the Ming army by name.
If these Mongolians hadn't brought a lot of goods from the Western Regions and looked like real merchants, the patrolling soldiers of the Ming army would have killed them long ago in exchange for military honors.
"Tell Mr. Dusi that a Mongolian caravan is coming outside and wants to see you!"
The Ming soldiers patrolling outside Lanzhou City immediately reported the situation to Chang Yuchun inside Lanzhou City.
"Where did the Mongolian caravan come from? Are you here to do business these days, and you want money at the risk of your life?" Chang Yuchun couldn't help but laugh.
The person leading this Mongolian caravan was none other than Totutu, the younger brother of the Khan of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
After they arrived in Lanzhou, Chang Yuchun sent someone to take them to Lanzhou City.
As soon as he saw Chang Yuchun, Tuotuo showed his identity and took out his credentials that he had already prepared.
Seeing the big seal on the certificate of credence, Chang Yuchun believed that they were really Mongolians from the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.
But to the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, the Mongols were enemies no matter which khanate they were from!
Chang Yuchun looked at Tuotuo in front of him, showed a sarcastic smile, and then said slowly: "Aren't you Chagatai Khanate also Mongolians? Why don't you just follow your Tatar emperor and come to Lanzhou to find him?
What am I doing? Is it some kind of conspiracy?"
After listening to Chang Yuchun's words, Tuotuo didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said to Chang Yuchun: "General, haven't you heard a sentence? The enemy of the enemy is a friend. We, the Chagatai Khanate, and Huhu
The descendants of Kublai Khan are enemies! The entire Chagatai Khanate wants all the descendants of Kublai Khan to die! How could they become enemies with the Ming Dynasty because of them?"
Tuotuo's words made Chang Yuchun smile heartily, and he believed the purpose of these Mongolians.
It's just that it's too important to talk about this kind of thing with the Mongols of the Chagatai Khanate.
Although Chang Yuchun was a general of the Ming Dynasty, he could not make a decision on this kind of matter.
He immediately sent someone to send Tuotuo and the envoy to Yingtian Mansion, allowing Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han to make a decision.
Under the escort of Chang Yuchun's bodyguard, Tuotuo galloped all the way to Yingtian Mansion on a 600-mile horse. It took less than a month to reach Yingtian Mansion from Lanzhou.
In more than a month, getting rid of the Mongols from the Chagatai Khanate was like a rural Balao entering the city.
Not to mention the majestic and tall city walls of Yingtian Mansion that shocked him beyond measure, even the many villages on the rural roads made Tuotuo feel extremely surprised and secretly sighed in his heart.
He had heard that the land of the Central Plains was rich and powerful, with a prosperous population and a large concentration of merchants. It was one of the most prosperous places in the world.
I never thought...this Central Plains would be so rich and prosperous!
The descendants of Kublai Khan are really incompetent if they cannot defend such a beautiful Central Plains!
Now that the Immortal Heaven no longer cares about the descendants of Kublai Khan, it is the time for our descendants of Chagatai to regain the great Mongolian kingdom.
Tuotuo came to Yingtianfu City with contempt for Kublai Khan's descendants in his heart.
Chang Yuchun's Lanzhou guards had already reported to the palace that an envoy from the Chagatai Khanate had come to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear that the Eastern Chagatai Khanate came to pay tribute!
The Chagatai Khanate was the first foreign country since the founding of the Ming Dynasty to come to pay tribute and become a vassal.
This shows that the fame of the Ming Dynasty spread far and wide, and it has spread to the Western Regions!
In order to handle this matter properly, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately called Zhu Han, and the two brothers discussed the matter in person.
Zhu Han was extremely surprised when he heard that envoys from the Eastern Chagatai Khanate had come to pay tribute.
After he learned about it in detail, he gradually understood.
Zhu Han said to his brother Zhu Yuanzhang, "Brother, I think this matter is definitely not as simple as paying tribute. It is obvious that they want to use our Ming forces to help their Chagatai Khanate deal with Oara and other Yuan Dynasty forces.
"
Zhu Yuanzhang was not familiar with the intricate khanates of the Mongols.
When he heard what Zhu Han said, he suddenly had some doubts in his heart, "Qiwu, tell me quickly, aren't they also Mongolians? Why did a group of Mongolians ask the Ming Dynasty to deal with the Meng Yuan?"
Zhu Han had already done a detailed understanding of this issue and immediately told Zhu Yuanzhang the grievances and grievances of the four great Mongolian khanates in history.
After listening to Zhu Han's explanation, my brother Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh.
"Temujin's descendants are really not in harmony. In just one or two generations, they have already beaten the dog's brains out, and now they are actively coming to my door to form an alliance with the Ming Dynasty!"
"Qiwu, do you think we should form an alliance with the Chagatai Khanate?"
Zhu Han said with a smile: "An alliance? Of course it is impossible to form an alliance! The Chagatai Khanate is weak and not worthy of an alliance with us. Let them surrender to the Ming Dynasty in the form of tribute and vassalage in accordance with the rules of the vassal state! If they are unwilling
, then drive them out!”
Zhu Han is quite familiar with the situation in the Western Regions. In the future, the Ming Dynasty will definitely expand its power to the Western Regions. Naturally, it cannot allow itself to have a strong ally in the Western Regions.
After all, if there is a strong ally in the Western Region in the future, the Ming Dynasty's Western Expedition will be extremely difficult.
And if the Chagatai Khanate was a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, there would be sufficient reasons to annex it in the future.
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty summoned Tuotuo, the envoy of the Chagatai Khanate, during the meeting of the Ming Dynasty.
At this time, Tuotuo had already witnessed the prosperity, wealth and power of the Ming Dynasty in Yingtian Mansion, and his position in his heart was already very clear.
As soon as Tuotuo saw Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, he immediately knelt on the ground respectfully and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, without any delay or hesitation.
"The envoy of a small and remote country, Tuotuo, pays homage to His Majesty the Ming Emperor. Long live, long live, long live!"
