In the mountain col, every noise and movement was torture for Qiongzha.
He was already prepared to die in battle, but the group of bastards outside refused to enter the mountain col. Seeing that noon was approaching, Qiongza's stomach growled, and screams rang out in the distance. He thought the enemy was invading.
But as soon as he got up, he saw a wretched man rushing towards him. The man was lying on the ground, crying pitifully, which was heartbreaking.
"Balanzan, why are you? Why did you come to Langshan? Didn't I tell you before I came to take care of your family?"
"Brother, I'm sorry for you...I'm sorry for you..."
Balanzan raised his head, and with tearful eyes told what happened in the tribe word for word. After hearing the bad news, Qiongza was dumbfounded, neither roaring nor sad. He was numb, as if he had lost his soul.
Average.
The knife in his hand fell to the ground at some point. After a long time, Qiongza suddenly covered his heart and spurted a mouthful of blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Ali...no, Abadai...how could you do this to me..."
Qiongza's eyes were red, tears had already melted into his heart, and the pain was as if thousands of ants were eating his heart.
Stupid man, what on earth have you done? With insufficient troops and many unfavorable factors, you wanted to defend Langshan, but your family died at the hands of Ali in the rear. Aba Dai did not punish Ali at all.
How ridiculous it is to die in battle at Langshan. In the eyes of the Great Khan, who does Qiongza mean to him? Even if such cattle and sheep die for no reason, they should shed a tear, right?
After a long time, Qiongza picked up the knife on the ground and staggered towards the outside of the col. He walked very slowly. If Balanzan hadn't been supporting him, he might have fallen to the ground.
Dozens of pairs of eyes stared blankly, and soon, someone couldn't help but asked: "Master Qiongza, what are you going to do?"
"What to do?" Qiongza didn't look back, he just smiled sadly, his voice was a little hoarse, "What can you do? Of course, be a traitor and join those enemies."
"Don't stop any of you. Now, I don't want to die. Anyone who stops me will be hacked to death. Of course, I welcome anyone who is willing to come with me!"
"This... Mr. Qiongza... you can't..." A Khalkha soldier raised his hand, but halfway through his words, he couldn't continue. Why should Mr. Qiongza
Can't surrender to the Han people? Why?
Surprisingly, many people came out one after another, and finally about fifty soldiers gathered behind Qiongza. Most of these people were loners and were not afraid of revenge. What just happened completely chilled them.
, how many people are willing to sacrifice their lives for someone like Abadai?
Yes, Great Khan, you are very noble, and your brothers and sisters are also very noble, but the lives of your brothers and sisters are lives, but the lives of other Mongolians are not lives?
We are warriors who charge into battle, wolves under your command, not slaves raised in your sheepfold.
.......
A quarter of an hour later, Qiongza knelt at the pass and kowtowed heavily. Unsurprisingly, he surrendered.
"Honored general, please allow Qiongza to become a galloping wolf under your command."
"Hey, Qiongza, get up!"
"Thank you, General. I... I have one more request... Can you let those people in the col go away? This may be the last thing I do for Khalkha..."
Looking at Qiongzha in front of him, Tie Mo sighed silently in his heart. Aba Dai, Aba Dai, you can't keep such an important person, why do you think about unifying Mongolia? It's really a wishful thinking. Think about history, Aba Dai
Badai's defeat to Lin Danhan is not so difficult to understand.
No matter how tyrannical Abadai is, a man who doesn't care about his subordinates, he will never be able to defeat Lin Dan Khan in the end.
Tie Mo didn't think for too long and immediately agreed to Qiongza's request.
.......
On the second day of July in the second year of Chongzhen, Zhang Bei's troops fought in Seglas Grassland and Langshan Mountain, killed Mulantuwa and Tuge, and recruited Qiongza to surrender. At this point, Aba Dai's hard-working plan to go south was completely shattered.
In order to go south this time, Abadai worked very hard. In order to hide everyone's attention, he even acted on the banks of the Tula River for the Living Buddha and Hassler. But in the end, his dream came to nothing and all his efforts were in vain.
How could Abadai be willing to accept this? He put all the blame on Qiongza and wanted to kill Qiongza quickly.
With anger, the main force led by Aba Dai finally arrived at Langshan.
Without any questions and answers, the two sides rested for half a day and then launched a brutal offensive and defensive battle around Langshan. Langshan was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Previously, Qiongzha only had 2,000 people, which made Tie Mo suffer a lot. Now Zhang Bei is guarding the mountain with troops.
With sufficient troops and firearms to help, the outcome can be imagined.
In less than half a day of attacking the mountain, more than 2,000 people were lost. Aba Dai could not have expected this result. He was shocked and gasped.
In half a day, so many people were lost. If we attack the mountain for three or four days, how much of the main force will be left? The losses are too heavy. Not to mention taking control of Monan, I am afraid that the unruly tribes in Mobei will not be able to suppress them.
.
The heavy loss was like a wake-up call, causing Abadai to wake up completely.
Attacking Langshan is just to vent the anger and unwillingness in my heart. Since there is no hope, why waste more?
On the fourth day of July, before dawn, Aba Dai left Langshan with his troops and retreated to the northeast. Tie Mo did not give the order to pursue, but stood still.
If Abadai retreats, then he will have to solve another big problem.
Boguoer, who is entrenched in Guining City, will be a disaster sooner or later. Now that all the four tribes in Tumochuan are in chaos, and with a bargaining chip like Abate under his command, it is a good opportunity to annex the Tumote tribe.
However, the annexation of the Tumut Department needs to be done step by step and not in a hurry. Soon, Tie Mo held an emergency meeting to arrange the next things.
Olger, Xie Kala, and Qiongza will stay in Langshan and join Abate in conquering Beimochuan, while Shadiao will lead his troops to Nanmochuan to cooperate with Tuobuhua to contain Bogor.
After all the instructions were completed, Tie Mo returned to Zhangbei with his people.
But no one expected that on the way back, as soon as they arrived at Mosna's tent, Tie Mo received a surprising news.
The news was sent from the capital, and the person who sent the letter was Zhang Yan. The content of the letter caused Tie Mo great concern.
In mid-June of this year, Yuan Chonghuan wrote two official documents and sent them to the capital, detailing Mao Wenlong's crimes. One of them said that Mao Wenlong kept changing orders and was like a bandit, wasting the court's food and salary in vain.
Chongzhen just suppressed the official document and did not publish it, thinking that Yuan Chonghuan was just complaining as before.
But Tie Mo knew very well that Yuan Chonghuan was testing, and he was really going to attack Mao Wenlong this time.
I have already written to Zhang Yan, asking her to persuade Chongzhen to find a way to restrain Yuan Chonghuan and make sure to keep Mao Wenlong.
But why is it of no use at all?
Since I came to this era, many things have changed, but why can't this thing change?
