The envoy sent to the Zasak tribe returned to the Chechen tribe's headquarters only one day late. At this time, the Chechen tribesmen scattered everywhere had gathered in a steady stream.
Yatov saw that the Ming army in the south really did not take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. While cursing the Han people for being pedantic, Yatov breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Han people attack everywhere as soon as they arrive, their Chechen tribe will definitely suffer heavy losses. He will not be able to rescue them even if he wants to.
But after listening to the story of the envoy sent to the Zasak tribe, Yatov's heart sank again.
"Great Khan, Zah Khan must want to wait until we and the Ming army are both defeated and take advantage of the opportunity."
"Ben Khan knew that that old fox Zah would definitely be too smart to join forces with us. He wanted to use this to consume the strength of our Chechen tribe, and then take the opportunity to eliminate the Ming army and annex our Chechen tribe. But this time his
You are so smart, you have to kill both my Chechen tribe and their Zasak tribe."
Yatov sighed, he knew this would be the result, because if it were him, he would probably choose to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
Judging from the situation they had recently inquired about, he was sure that after the other party destroyed their Chechen tribe, they still had the strength to defeat the Zasak tribe.
Only by uniting the two departments can we compete with it.
"Great Khan, how about we tell Zah Khan all the truth we have discovered, and tell him that although the Ming Dynasty's army only has more than 40,000 people, it is very powerful. Our Chechen army alone cannot stop it. Once the opponent is eliminated,
If they kill our Chechen tribe, they will definitely not let go of their Zasak tribe.”
Herut thought for a while and said that he had been to the Ming Army camp and knew the strength of the Ming Army best.
"Do you think that old guy would believe it?"
Yatov smiled bitterly, although he knew the character of his old rival Zah Khan too well.
I knew that no matter how much I said at this time, the other side would just stand still and wait for the Chechen army and the Ming army to fight to the death.
The rest of the big and small heads in the account were also silent.
For several days, there was still no movement from the Zasak tribe, and the negotiators sent to the Ming army camp in the south were also driven back again. Yatov also showed determination on his face, and finally made a decision.
But the decision made made all the tribesmen shocked and in an uproar.
"Bhan, although the weather is getting warmer now, the water near the North Sea is still dripping and turning into ice, which is not suitable for survival. If we move there, countless cattle, sheep and horses will be killed and injured, and our Chechen Ministry will also be severely damaged."
"Yes, Great Khan, now is the breeding season, so we must not migrate."
"Our Chechen tribe has a population of nearly 80,000 and 30,000 sword-carrying warriors. Those Han people may not dare to fight us bloody battles. Once we move away, what if they reach an agreement with the Zasak tribe and occupy our pastures?"
, our Chechen Ministry will never come back.”
All the big and small heads of the Chechen tribe were begging hard. They didn't expect that before the Ming army came to kill them, the Khan was hundreds of miles away and would flee without a fight and move directly to Beihai with them.
The escape was beyond everyone's expectations.
Not to mention that most livestock and women are pregnant at this time, which is not suitable for long-distance migration at all. Moreover, although the water and grass in Beihai are abundant, they can only graze for two or three months a year, and it is impossible to survive at other times.
Especially in the cold winter, the elderly, children and livestock cannot survive at all, so almost everyone does not agree with moving to Beihai.
After all, even if the Han army really comes, as long as they don't back down, the other side may not dare to really start a war.
Faced with the opposition of the tribesmen, Yatov's attitude was not shaken at all, but patiently explained: "This time the Han people are different from the past. Their attitude is very tough. Apparently their emperor gave them a trick when he came.
They must be ready for a bloody battle with our Chechen tribe. Not only do they have 20,000 Mongolian cavalry, but they also have hundreds of tanks and artillery.
Once a war breaks out, no matter whether our Chechen tribe can defeat the other side in the end, the warriors in the tribe will be severely damaged and will no longer be able to fight against the Zasak tribe.
And if we move to Beihai immediately, although we will suffer some losses, all the warriors in the clan will be preserved, and the Ming army will definitely not pursue us. Most of them will target the Zasak tribe again, as long as the two sides start a war.
, our Chechen Ministry will be able to move back again before winter, and by then, our Chechen Ministry will be the most powerful."
At the end of Yatov's words, he clenched his fists.
As long as they hide near the Beihai now, even if the Han people do not retreat before winter after destroying the Zasak tribe, with their damaged strength and the severe cold winter, their Chechen tribe can definitely unite with the remaining soldiers of the Zasak tribe.
If the prodigal family fights back, it is not impossible to eliminate these Han people in the end and unify Mobei.
After listening to Yatov's explanation, everyone fell into deep thought. Obviously, everyone was not stupid. What the Great Khan said was indeed reasonable. After a final weighing, all the leaders nodded in agreement to migrate.
Yatov was also overjoyed, and after discussing it for a while, he asked everyone to go back and make preparations to start migrating to Beihai tomorrow. Fortunately, all the Chechen tribesmen had already gathered here.
Seventy or eighty thousand people and millions of livestock gathered in this small area. It was okay for a short time. But over time, if they didn't disperse to herd the animals, they would starve to death. But once they dispersed to herd, the Ming army's cavalry
It will definitely be a massacre, and it will no longer matter whether there is a sneak attack or not.
This is also the reason why Yatov made up his mind to move, because the Ming army that came was no better than the Zasak tribe and other Mongolian tribes. They did not have to graze, and both humans and horses could eat food. If they stayed there and did not attack them, they would consume the capital.
Energy drains them to death.
Since most of the population in Chechnya had just migrated here, they saved a lot of trouble and started migrating at noon the next day.
Different from past herding and migration, this time the Chechens moved very fast. Pregnant women and children sat on carriages, and young women who were not pregnant rode back and forth on horses to drive cattle and sheep. Men carried swords and bows on their backs to guard the rear.
In just two days, we followed the Aluhun River and reached the foot of the continuous mountains. As long as we follow the river through the mountains, we can reach the southern end of the North Sea after walking for more than two hundred miles.
Of course, such a rapid migration also cost the Chechen tribe a great price. Countless pregnant mares, cows and ewes fell down along the way, which made all the tribesmen feel distressed, but they could only cut them off in a hurry with tears.
Some meat and leather, discard the body, and continue on your way.
Fortunately, it is only April, and women are not pregnant for a long time. In addition, Mongolian women are much rougher than Han women. Even if they sit in a bumpy carriage for a long time, they are not affected much. Some are even riding on horses.
Helping herd the cattle and sheep. If the pregnant Han women saw this, they would be shocked.
