There are many people who can see the tactic of showing off one's power, but there are very few people who can actually ignore it.
Because no one can guarantee whether the other party will take desperate risks or fake it due to temporary changes.
But be pragmatic and dare to do so.
Because, although he and Chaterji have never met, he has collected a lot of information about him from various channels. This information is high enough and pragmatic to make accurate judgments about his character, mentality, etc.
What character traits Chataiji has and how he deals with others are all important sources of judgment.
The so-called "forecasting things is like a god", to put it bluntly, it means that "people" are like gods, especially the so-called temple calculations in ancient China, which are more focused on forecasting people. In the war years, the Taizu of the Red Dynasty was responsible for treating Kaishen Logistics
The "material" was very tight, so they restrained the national army.
For example, when Gao Pingshi was working as a secretary, he read a pamphlet from the Cultural Revolution. It mentioned that Hong Taizu once asked Lin Shuai to go south to Jinzhou and Lin Shuai hesitated again and again.
If you don’t want to fight, you come to the central government and I will go!”
The reason is that he expected that Kaishen Logistics would hesitate when Lin Shuai mobilized his army, and that Jinzhou would definitely be busy and causing chaos after being beaten, so he sent Liao Yaoxiang out to put out the fire in a hurry. By then, as long as Liao Yaoxiang was blocked and annihilated, the entire Northeast
One game of chess brings everything to life.
As for Lin Shuai, although he had nothing to say in terms of military command, and his plan at the time was sound enough, he was unable to view the overall situation from the perspective of Hong Taizu, let alone predict the mentality and reaction of Kaishen Logistics in various situations.
It's so thorough, so it's not as frequent as Hong Taizu's, who can make magical moves.
At this time, Gao Pragmatic did not expect things to happen. He had just analyzed Chatterji's thoughts thoroughly.
The first thing that is certain about Chatterji is that he is extremely loyal to Amada Khan.
Loyalty is a rare and valuable quality. It is generally reflected in "I will firmly uphold all the decisions made by the Great Khan; I will unswervingly follow all the instructions of the Great Khan."
And extreme loyalty goes one step further, to the point where "I will try my best to help him accomplish whatever the Great Khan wants to accomplish, even if it costs me everything!"
So, what are the decisions and instructions of the Great Khan?
Trade between tributes and tributes!
Anda has been fighting back and forth with the Ming Dynasty for decades, and all he wants is a mutual trade. For this reason, he is even willing to surrender and pay tribute, and declares in front of many subordinates that "from generation to generation, we will never betray our alliance!"
Therefore, the Great Khan’s decision and instruction was to insist on the Tonggong mutual market. Therefore, no matter what Qataiji did, he had to make an assumption first: Will what I do affect the Tonggon mutual market?
In this case, why should we be afraid of being pragmatic?
Da Ming's temper is obvious, he is just like a donkey who can only be manipulated. If you dare to make Da Ming lose face, Da Ming will fight for your dignity and fight you to the end.
He is a pragmatic and dignified emperor who has been conferred the title of plenipotentiary envoy of King Shunyi and represents the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. How dare Qia Taiji eat the heart of a bear and actually attack him?
Kill me? Not to mention whether you can do it or not, even if you can do it, after killing me, there is no hope for this mutual trade!
It is conceivable that if an angel was really killed, the Ming Dynasty would definitely be shouting and killing, and even the Xinxue school would never jump out and say that peace is precious - speaking of it, the saying that peace is precious is still proposed by the Practical School
Yes, although it is just a temporary measure, it should even be called an ulterior motive...
With Chaterji's level, it is impossible not to see the consequences of this, so Gao Pragmatic can be completely sure that no matter what useful demonstrations he makes, he will never dare to touch himself, or even let himself
Can't get off the stage - Ming Dynasty civil servants are not very good-tempered. They may feel that they have lost face, turn around and pat their butts and go back, and then give the emperor a big talk to convince the emperor to stop trading again just like during the Jiajing period.
.
Chatterji cannot afford this consequence.
So why did Qataiji demonstrate? Because in the minds of the vast majority of Mongolians, the reason why the Ming Dynasty was willing to trade with Tumote was obviously not because the Ming emperor was "benevolent and kind, benefiting the world". They didn't even think that the Ming Dynasty was for
Coveting their cattle and sheep - the Central Plains is rich and prosperous. Even if you have never been there, you can hear it in your ears.
Therefore, they believe that the key to Ming Dynasty's willingness to trade with Tumote is that Tumute can fight.
Although the Great Khan has been fighting for decades, he has not been able to occupy Mingren's cities and ponds, but at least he has annoyed Ming Dynasty! In the process of being beaten for decades, Mingren gradually discovered that although we are strong, we are always being beaten.
That's not possible, but it's hard to hit someone if you fight back, so let's make peace.
Of course, Ming people like to save face, but the Great Khan doesn’t matter. In fact, my answer is not that it doesn’t matter. But after all, he is not the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but the Great Khan of the Tumote tribe. Logically speaking, he is lower than the "Emperor of the Ming Dynasty".
At this level, there is no shame in claiming vassalage and paying tribute; secondly, Tumut's situation at that time could only be improved by relying on the Ming Dynasty. This was forced by the power of reality. As a practical leader, he had to bow to reality.
It is for these reasons that Qataiji feels that he must let the imperial envoy Gao Pragmatic see the power of Tumut, and as Tumut's number one general, he is also the most obligated to do this - otherwise
Do you expect Dacheng Taiji or even Jongjin Hatun to go?
It’s a joke, there are so many business dealings between Gao Pragmatic and Dacheng Taiji, and it’s not like Qia Taiji doesn’t know about it. As long as Gao Pragmatic arrives in Dabanshengcheng, Dacheng Taiji will never make any protest other than to greet him.
Action, he can guarantee this with his head on his shoulders.
As for Zhongjin Hatun... Amitabha, facing such a young and handsome angel of the Ming Dynasty, it would be worthy of the Khan if she did not recommend herself as a pillow. The Mongolian concept of chastity is different from that of the Ming Dynasty. Women throw themselves into the arms of the strong, that is Mongolia
People's traditions, even if she is the Great Khan's Hatun, are no different! Don't expect other Mongolians to have the same hatred and hatred after hearing the news...
Are you kidding me? The rule on the grassland is that the strong owns everything. If women do not obey the strong, they will all end up like the Han people. Then the Mongolian nation disappeared hundreds of years ago!
The great Genghis Khan's wife was snatched away and she was pregnant with the enemy's child. What did Genghis Khan say? He didn't take it seriously at all, he still raised the child and even granted him a feudal state!
Therefore, only Chaterji could demonstrate to the imperial envoy and let him know Tumut's strength.
But wait, isn't it okay to love Huang Taiji? He is also a veteran in the army and the eldest son of the Great Khan. Wouldn't it be more appropriate for him to do this?
This should have been the case, but Qataiji's territory was close to Guihua City, and he knew that the matter was now very complicated. At first, some subordinates reported to him that after the death of the Khan, Dachengtaiji and Zhongjinhatun had recently
Despite frequent contact, he still didn't take it seriously - even if Zhongjin Hatun wanted to marry Dacheng Taiji, it would not be a big deal according to Mongolian customs, and Qia Taiji had no interest in taking care of this matter.
But immediately, there were reports that both Dacheng Taiji and Zhongjin Hatun began to communicate frequently with Jinghua Trading Company, and Jinghua Trading Company even sent three groups of people a day to travel back and forth between Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty.
There is something wrong with this news. Jinghua Trading Company has trade relations with almost all Tumut nobles, and it is normal to have contacts with Dacheng Taiji and Zhongjin Hatun. However, they suddenly had frequent contacts and even sent three groups of messengers back to the Ming Dynasty in one day.
This is obviously unusual.
At the beginning, Qataiji only suspected that Dachengtaiji and Zhongjin Hatun, two die-hard Ming loyalists, were worried about changes in the tribute exchange trade after the death of the Great Khan, so they stepped up contact with the Ming Dynasty to show their loyalty.
What.
But it wasn't until the special envoy sent by Xin Ai Huang Taiji came to see him that he knew he was in serious trouble - Dacheng Taiji might have set his sights on the throne of the Great Khan!
