Buyangu glanced at the woman galloping in the snow and shook his head.
Seeing that Buyangu wanted to sigh again, Delgrad couldn't help but grinned and said: "Let Brother Dong vent his anger? This battle has been unsuccessful after so much effort. She probably feels aggrieved as well."
Buyangu puffed out white air from his nostrils, and said with some annoyance: "It's because her father, uncle, and the others have spoiled her over the years that she developed such a temper, regardless of the overall situation..."
"Brother, that's not right. Although Busia Mara is a little more impatient, she can still see the situation clearly. Look at our order to retreat. Brother Dong is also angry, but he still obeys?" Delgrad
He also has a very good relationship with Busiya Mara. They both grew up together. Although Buyangu is respected in their generation, Delgrad
"I obeyed? Why did I obey and lead a small team to attack the Jianzhou Jurchens? If you hadn't gone in time, I think it would have caused a catastrophe." Buyangu waved his hand fiercely.
"That's not necessarily the case. Brother Dong and the others have changed into Mongolian attire and retreated in one blow. The Jianzhou people may not be able to catch us." Delgrad disagreed.
"Humph, what excuse does Nurhaci care about?" Buyangu felt that his cousin was a bit naive, "If Horqin hadn't been shrinking, and Dazhou had firmly supported Shuerhaqi and his son, and also given us so many firearms,
Do you think Nurhaci would give up so easily? Even if the Ula tribe is not dead, it will shed its skin."
Delgrad urged his horse to take a few steps forward and shook his head, "Brother, the Ula tribe has shed a layer of skin. If we don't rescue Jibu Zhantai, the Ula tribe will definitely not survive this spring."
Dergler and Niyahan had just returned from the Ula tribe and knew the situation of the Ula tribe well.
A strong man like Bu Zhantai couldn't help but shed tears in front of Delgrad and Niyahan.
It was not because the war with the Jianzhou Jurchens was so cruel that the Ula tribe was never afraid of fighting the enemy, but because they thought about how to spend the next spring and summer when the cold winter comes.
Although the Jianzhou Jurchen's continuous attacks did not defeat the Ula tribe, they destroyed the basis for their survival.
The pasture land is deserted, and the livestock cannot receive good grazing in the summer and autumn. A large number of livestock will either starve to death or be slaughtered in this winter and spring. The strong people of the tribe can survive, but it will be difficult for the old, weak, women and children.
In the second half of the year, it will be more difficult, even difficult to maintain.
The corner of Buyangu's eye twitched.
He didn't know the difficulties of the Ula tribe. He had been fighting with the Jianzhou Jurchens for two or three years. Nurhaci, a bitch, relied on the Jianzhou Jurchens to be more powerful and adopted a round-robin battle to forcefully drag the Ula tribe to this point.
, if Da Zhou had not intervened forcefully, I am afraid that the Ula tribe would have surrendered this time.
Although Bu Zhantai was strong, he was not strong enough to ignore the life and death of his clan. Although the Jianzhou Jurchens had withdrawn their troops, they actually knew that the Ula tribe had no way out other than surrendering to them.
Except for the Yehe tribe in the south and the Mongols in the west, no one around the Ula tribe could give them such great support. To maintain the survival of the tribe, these supplies were not a small amount, and the Yehe tribe could not afford them.
"Brother, maybe we can provide some support to the Ula tribe?" Delgrad couldn't help but said.
Burhanggu, who had been silent on the sidelines, objected: "Our own family is in such difficulty, how can we spare the energy to help the Ula tribe?"
Burhangu is Buyangu's biological brother. Although he is still young, a few years younger than Delgrad, he is much older than Delgrad's younger brother Niyahan.
Buyangu and Burhanggu are from the line of Beile in the east city of Yehe tribe, and their father is Bu Zhai, while Dergel and Niyahan, whose father is Jintaishi, are from the line of Beile in the west city of Yehe tribe, but their ancestors are
Blood brothers became cousins in Bu Zhai and Jin Taishi. Although the blood relationship is more distant in this generation, the brotherhood has not diminished much.
"If we don't save the Ula tribe, once the Ula tribe falls to the Jianzhou Jurchens, I'm afraid the Horqin people will have other ideas." Delgler shook his head.
The main reason why Ye He's tribe was able to send troops to fight at all costs was that the Horqin people relented and made it clear that they would not obey the orders of the Jianzhou Jurchen. In addition, the great Zhou Dynasty strongly supported Ye He's tribe. This made Ye He's tribe reluctant to fight.
Hebu dared to go out with all his strength, forcing Jianzhou Jurchen to have a temporary truce.
There are many reasons why the Horqin people surrendered. One was the threat from the Chahar people and the Zhou Dynasty. The other was that the Horqin people also realized that Nurhachi could not even deal with the rebellion of Shuerhaqi and his son. Shuerhaqi and his son even
After receiving public protection from the Great Zhou Dynasty, he fled to Heizhanmu and publicly raised the flag of the Jianzhou Right Guard Commander. This was simply a slap in Nurhachi's face.
In this case, the Horqin people had to carefully consider what they would gain from establishing a closer relationship with the Jianzhou Jurchens.
Perhaps the Chahar people could only make them wary. The Zhou Dynasty was still far away and the Yehe tribe was not strong enough. But if these three families joined forces, the Horqin people would feel a little weak.
They need to consider if they completely fall to the Jianzhou Jurchens, once the Chahar and Yehe tribes join forces to attack the Horqin tribe, can they withstand it? How much practical support can the Jianzhou Jurchens give them?
"Our little strength to support the Ula tribe is of no avail." Buyangu thought further, "But if we don't save the Ula tribe, sooner or later our Yehe tribe will not follow in the footsteps of the Ula tribe."
"What does brother mean...?" Burhangu and Delgre both looked at Buyangu.
"We still have to rely on Dazhou." Buyangu said categorically: "If we rely on Yehe tribe ourselves, even if we try our best, it will not help. Instead, it will drag us down. Only by relying on Dazhou can we help the Ula tribe to survive.
Difficulties."
"But brother, the Great Zhou Dynasty has also given us a lot of supplies in the early stage. All the important military weapons such as fire guns have been given to us. Moreover, they are still supporting Shuerhaqi as the right guard of the Great Jianzhou. How can they return it to Ula?
How much support does the Ministry have? The importance of us and the Ula Ministry to the Great Zhou Dynasty is not as great as we think."
Burhang Gu shook his head repeatedly. He was extremely worried about the Great Zhou Dynasty. More than 20 years ago, Li Chengliang saw that the Yehe tribe was getting stronger, so he sent his army to attack the Yehe tribe. Both Beile Qingjianu and Yang Jiniu from the east and west of the Yehe tribe
If he was killed in battle, if the tribe had not immediately promoted Bu Zhai and Nalin Bulu to succeed him, and later took the initiative to surrender to Zhou Dynasty, the Ye He tribe would have been destroyed.
From Burhanggu's point of view, the Zhou Dynasty's method for dealing with the tribes outside the Pass is to allow you to have internal strife. Anyway, your family will not be allowed to dominate. Whoever wants to become strong will come to suppress you.
The problem is that the situation outside the customs is no better than it was twenty years ago. Jianzhou Jurchens have become stronger, but the Chahar tribe of the Mongols to the west is also rising. The Yehe tribe and the Ula tribe are both weak in comparison.
If the Great Zhou Dynasty wanted to maintain the split state outside the relationship, it only needed to support the Chahar people to completely curb the westward expansion of the Jianzhou Jurchens from the west. The two families were allowed to fight to the death without any possibility of further expansion.
Spending too much money and supplies on tribes like the Yehe tribe and the Ula tribe.
The reason why Zhou Dynasty went to war this time was because the newly arrived governor of Jiliao had not yet been able to control the situation, so he spent a lot of money to temporarily contain the Jurchens in Jianzhou.
As Burhanggu's biological brother, Buyangu naturally knew Burhanggu's worries and shook his head: "Burhanggu, you underestimated the importance Zhou attached to the Jianzhou Jurchens, and you also overestimated the Chahar people. At least
I feel that the Great Zhou Dynasty pays more attention to the Jianzhou Jurchens than the Chahar people, and you have not seen the prosperity of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is simply not comparable to places like ours outside the customs. That's a rude statement.
For example, if the population and property of our Yehe tribe were placed in the Great Zhou Pass, it would probably be just one state and county. And do you know how many states and counties there are in the Great Zhou Dynasty? Their North Zhili region alone has
Nearly a hundred states and counties!”
Burhang Gu was stunned. He muttered for a long time before saying: "Brother, what do you mean...?"
"The population and property of Dazhou are not comparable to those of our small tribes outside the pass, but they have too many places to guard against. The nine sides range from Yilipali in the west, which is the territory of the Mughals, to Mongolia in the north.
The right-wing tribes, as well as the Mongolian left-wing tribes outside the pass and our Jurchen tribes, all need to be defended. Moreover, the Great Zhou Dynasty is short of horses and does not have much cavalry, so whether it is fighting the Mongols, our Jurchens, or the Mongols in the west
No matter who you are, you can only take passive precautions. This is why the Zhou Dynasty has such a powerful force in Liaodong but can only hold on to it..."
Buyangu thought that he had gone to Dazhou and had seen all kinds of things in Dazhou. He had some understanding of Dazhou, and his analysis was clear and logical.
"The Great Zhou Dynasty does not have many troops that can be mobilized at any time, but they are not short of supplies, so they can generously give us firearms that we regard as gems, and even gave them to the Chahar people.
I know that the Chahar people have always been the great enemy of the Zhou Dynasty, because the Zhou Dynasty is not afraid of the Chahar people. On the contrary, they attach great importance to the Jurchens of Jianzhou..."
"So brother, you think that in this case, if we reach out to Dazhou to ask for support from Ula, Dazhou will agree?" Burhanggu still shook his head, "The governor of Jiliao is too generous. Compared with Li Chengliang, it is simply too generous.
One is in the sky and the other is under the earth.”
"It's definitely not possible to rely on Liaodong alone. You have to find the Great Zhou court." Buyangu tasted the sweetness and realized that relying solely on Liaodong is not enough. The Great Zhou court has to be willing to do so. "So I plan to go again.
I went to the Capital City of the Great Zhou Dynasty to find that little Feng Xiuzhuan. Burhangu and Niyahan went with me. It was an eye-opener. Delgrad, let’s discuss it with Uncle Jintaishi after we get back.
Please ask Uncle Jintaishi to go with you to see Governor Feng, we have to work together."
