Gao Pragmatic's face was calm. Although Zheng Luo and the other four people were in a state of turmoil, they had no choice but to calm down and prepare to listen to his explanation.
Because it was the highest-level meeting, there were no outsiders in the flower hall, and Gao Pragmatic did not have too many scruples. He directly stated his next arrangements for the Tumote Department, which were what he and Zhu Yijun had said.
Hearing that Han Naji was to be married to Zhongjin Hatun, and then the two of them would join forces to deal with Xin Ai, Zheng Luo and others' complexions immediately improved a lot, and Liu Ping even felt relaxed.
Liu Ping may be the one who is most familiar with Gao pragmatism among the four. Based on his understanding of Gao pragmatism, Gao Shizhong is by no means a person who likes to act recklessly. The two things he is best at are inducement and coercion.
As a last resort, it is rare to rush over and engage in a close combat.
Huang Mengyu is Gao Pragmatic's die-hard ally, and Liu Ping is Huang Mengyu's nephew. Although there is not much age difference between them, given their seniority and achievements as an eunuch, Huang Mengyu is fully qualified to educate him.
How did Huang Mengyu educate him? When Gao Pragmatic came this time, Huang Mengyu rushed to deliver a letter to Liu Ping in advance, telling him, "No matter what the imperial envoy tells you to do, just do it. If you don't understand, don't understand. Don't make your own decisions."
.
There was no embellishment in his words, as if he was teaching him a lesson in front of him, but Liu Ping didn't mind. If his uncle didn't value him, how could he let himself come to the place where he made his fortune?
As for Yao Shu's words, Liu Ping also had his own understanding. After reading the letter at that time, he knew that what Gao Shizhong came to do this time was definitely not simple. Most of it was something he had not expected at all, so Yao Uncle emphasized that he did not understand.
I don’t understand, just follow the instructions.
In other words, what Gao Shizhong wants to do this time meets at least three conditions: first, he may not be able to understand it; second, it is inconvenient for my uncle to explain; third, he must comply with it.
Yes, just do as you're told. What's the point of asking so many questions? No one dies from talking too little as an eunuch, but more often than not, people die from talking too much!
So Liu Ping relaxed immediately after listening to Gao's pragmatic explanation. Although he, Liu, could never judge how the situation would develop, but this was not his job. Even if things went wrong in the end,
The emperor will probably not think that it is Liu Ping's problem - damn, if Gao Shizhong can do it himself, how can I, Liu, take the blame?
And the most nervous person turned out to be Ma Jin at this time.
Because according to what Gao Pragmatic said, there is a high probability that this canonization will not be a peaceful canonization, and in all likelihood it will lead to a fight.
It’s hard to say whether Hannaji and Zhongjin Hatun can beat Xin Ai. Judging from the number of troops and financial resources, they should definitely have the upper hand if they join forces.
.
But the problem is that the reason why Bahannaji has so many tribes is because he has always been favored, not because he is good at fighting. Although this guy has been with Anda for many years in the army, in fact,
He has never fought in a war, so only the devil knows whether he can fight or not.
As for Zhongjin Hatun... Well, although it is not uncommon for Mongolian Hatuns to be regents, and they were not able to fight in the past, Zhongjin Hatun seems to be a pacifist and has always insisted on living in harmony with the Ming Dynasty. I guess she might
I can rely on Anda's residual power to gain some power and rely on tradition to gain some support, but to say that I have any prestige in the military, I'm afraid I'm overthinking it.
Looking at it this way, if Han Naji and Jongjin Hatun team up to fight Xin Ai in the end, the outcome will be difficult to predict.
Perhaps this is what Gao Shizhong wanted? Because in this way, Ming Dynasty would become the decisive force, especially since he would go with thousands of troops.
Oh, no! The third brother will accompany the imperial envoy to the north this time. He will definitely not bring a large army. He will definitely select elites - what kind of elites can the elites have? They must be their own "expert soldiers". The third brother does not have many elite soldiers.
Less than 2,000 people. I estimate that I can only take a thousand people with me when I go out this time.
In this case, plus the Imperial Guards (Beijing Cavalry) and servants in the imperial palace, there are only five thousand people in total. Although they are all cavalry, five thousand cavalry... If this is placed in the Central Plains, it is indeed a large force.
Power, but in Mongolia it’s just a feather?
Mongolia claims to control hundreds of thousands of strings. Even if there is some water in it, even if it includes the Dongtao, Xitao and Qinghai tribes that are unlikely to appear in this battle, but just the Tumut headquarters, if something big happens.
, it is possible to control a hundred thousand strings!
Five thousand Han cavalry versus one hundred thousand Mongolian cavalry?
Oh no, the Mongols are in civil strife, so there won’t be 100,000 Mongolian riders...
Ma Jin quickly sorted out his thoughts and calculated again: the number of troops that Han Naji could directly mobilize was about 15,000 to 20,000. If the troops were mobilized with the command arrow, 50,000 cavalry should be able to gather them;
As for Zhongjin Hatun, the 10,000 elite troops directly under the Shunyi King's Court should be able to control it, but she doesn't know how many tribes can be recruited - the key is that she doesn't know how many tribes are willing to listen to her orders. In this case, she can come up with
It's hard to estimate the strength of the army. If we calculate it as 20,000, Hannaji and her can put together 70,000 cavalry.
Strong is indeed powerful. Ma Jin breathed a sigh of relief and thought about Xin Ai's aspect again: Xin Ai's headquarters usually retains not many cavalry, only 10,000 cavalry, but his troops are not many. In terms of population, it is not as big as Han Na's.
Good luck.
However, there is a problem here, that is, many of these tribesmen in Xin Ai were conquered by Anda in the years before, such as part of Wuliangha. There are also a group of tribes that I divided using power.
, such as part of the Yongxie Bubu.
This part of the Yongxiebu tribe may be a little more honest, because their former leader was assigned by Anda to guard Qinghai, and the boss there had a piece of grassland allotted to him, so he was willing to leave some of his tribe to Anda.
——It may be equivalent to buying an official, and it is buying an official in "Yongzhen Yifang".
As a result, the so-called Yongxiebu Eight Camps (actually not as strong as the eight battalions in the earliest period) left about three battalions for Anda, who then passed on to his eldest son Xin Ai.
Relatively speaking, Wu Liangha is not as honest as Yong Xie Bubu. They were divided and annexed by Anda and others. Anda probably got 40% of Wuliangha's strength, but Anda is not honest either.
The previous war with the Ming Dynasty had consumed some of the Uliangha tribe, and now it is considered to be 30% at most.
I replied that although the killing with a borrowed knife was done more secretly, Wu Liangha was not a fool. Couldn't he not see that his own strength was getting weaker and weaker? Therefore, they must be dissatisfied, which raised the possibility that Xin
Once Ai faces great danger, it is hard to say whether Wu Liangha will obey orders.
Of course, Wu Liangha's situation is also very bad. The key is that Wu Liangha is no longer a whole, and some of them have been taken away by Chahar long ago. They are now Tumen Khan's subordinates, and Tumen Khan is against Wu Liang
Kazakhstan was also a conqueror, and they were equally unconvinced.
Therefore, even if Xin Ai refuses to obey orders when he is in trouble, they probably will not take the initiative to stir up trouble, and the probability of sitting on the sidelines is probably the highest.
However, Xin Ai's strength is not limited to the tribe he controls. As the eldest son of An Da, after Dayan Khan re-established the rules, in theory, Xin Ai should inherit An Da's status. Although An Da is the
Nian has been trying to overthrow this system, but... hasn't it been successful yet?
Therefore, Xin Ai may have a "righteous" advantage over the Tumote tribe who are beyond the control of Han Naji and Zhongjin Hatun. The most critical force among them is the number one warrior under An Da's command, Jiatai.
Ji controls and influences the tribe.
If Chatterji thinks that Xin Ai is the natural successor of Anda Khan and supports Xin Ai, then Han Naji and Zhongjin Hatun will be in danger. Although Chatterji currently has only 6,000 troops directly under his control, he
His appeal and symbolism are no joke. Once he votes for Xin Ai and removes Han Naji and Jong Kim Ha Tun from his base, he may not have any other supporters.
If the situation is so bad, let alone the canonization matter, it is hard to say whether Gao Pragmatic will come back - if Gao Pragmatic cannot come back, how can the third brother come back?
To put it bluntly, even if he could escape by himself, he would not dare to escape. If Gao Pragmatic escapes after losing it, not to mention that the emperor has to kill him, can Gao Dang and Jin Dang spare his life?
You will definitely die if you come back!
When Ma Jin thought of this, he couldn't help sweating on his forehead, and thought to himself: It's over, what are you doing to cause such troubles? It would be great to let Xin Ai be the king of Shunyi. This guy is seriously ill, and he probably won't live for a few more years.
, wouldn’t it be okay to wait until he dies before pushing Han Naji to the throne?
But this is because Ma Jin, a military commander, does not understand politics, because as long as Xin Ai becomes King of Shunyi, the rightful name will be determined. It is logical that the next King of Shunyi will come from his lineage, and it will basically be Lalik.
If Xin Ai is allowed to come to power now, it will be equivalent to the fact that the primogeniture system that Anda has worked so hard to destroy over the years is still tenaciously persisting. Then there will be no reason to push Han Naji.
The "Golden Family" is able to rule Mongolia, often relying on the word "name". If there is no name, how can Han Naji and Zhongjin Hatun rely on to fight Xin Ai and Lali Ke's father and son?
Is there a name now? Yes.
Ida has been destroying the primogeniture system in recent years, thus introducing the Yellow Sect. Now the Yellow Sect has basically replaced Shamanism and become the state religion of Tumut.
The senior officials of the Yellow Sect were very afraid of the Ming Dynasty, and they advised me not to go against the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, if the Ming Dynasty said that the new King of Shunyi should be Han Naji, then the Yellow Sect would almost certainly declare that Han Naji was the emperor in the name of Buddha.
Genghis Khan was reincarnated, or Kublai Khan was reincarnated, or whoever was reincarnated—in short, he was the inevitable successor to the Great Khan.
Fortunately, Ma Jin was worried now, but she knew that she was a soft-spoken person, and even her words could not change Gao Jingshi's opinions, so she could only look at Zheng Luo and Jia Yingyuan, hoping that the two real frontier officials would stand up and persuade Gao Jingshi—
—Even persuaded the emperor to withdraw his orders.
