Judging the strength of an army based on the names of generals may seem silly in later generations, but in this era it is commonplace, because everyone has limited information about the training level and morale of the opponent's army.
, food and grass supplies, the quality of equipment, etc., many times they know nothing about it.
So how to judge the strength of this army? First, look at the number of people, and second, look at the generals.
If the opponent has an army of 100,000, it will definitely be the main force. No matter how rubbish it is, it is not easy to deal with. After all, even if you cut down 100,000 pigs, you will not be able to cut them all in a while, and what if there are 100,000 wild boars rushing in?
Come here, maybe you will suffer defeat.
And if the opponent's general is a famous general, such as Ma Fang, Qi Jiguang, Li Chengliang, etc., even if his subordinates may not all be elite soldiers, there will definitely be elite soldiers around him as a mobile force. If you fight with this kind of army, you will be in danger if you are not careful.
Will knock out teeth.
Of course, the Ma family has been a military family for several generations, and the reputation of Dabing is not bad. However, the reason why the Ma family has a more famous name, and is even compared with the Li family, is mainly because the two brothers Ma Jin and Ma Gui are now both
In high positions, there is a commander-in-chief and a deputy commander-in-chief.
However, after all, Da Bing was far less numerous than Li Chengliang's family in Liaodong, and since Ma Gui was the younger brother, he definitely didn't have as many Da Bings as his elder brother, so Xin Ai was not afraid of him.
The person who came to report the message just now was the messenger sent by Xin Ai to deliver a message to Qia Taiji. He came in and told Xin Ai and his son what they had seen in Tuo Tuo City, and then said: "Huang Taiji, this is absolutely true.
Indeed, Qataiji even took Gao Pragmatic to worship Gao Buddha..."
"Buddha!"
The messenger was startled and did not dare to say any more.
Xin Ai asked again: "Qataiji brought all 6,000 people with him?"
Messenger Nuonuo said: "Yes, I brought them all."
Xin Ai said angrily: "Okay, okay, he really doesn't stop doing anything, and he sells it really thoroughly... It seems that money is such a good thing, even Tuotuo was bribed."
Burihatu, who was well aware of Abu's temper, saw that he did not even dare to say harsh words, and knew that although Abu did not say anything, he was still a little wary of Chaterji in his heart, so he emphasized again: "Now we must make peace with him immediately.
Zhongjin Hatun got in touch, Abu, Zhongjin Hatun not only made Mingting hesitate, but she also held Ebuge's Qixue (Suwei pro-army, Imperial Guard) in her hands, but in fact this
It’s just a retro title, Qie Xuezhi has been buried long ago), there are 20,000 warriors!”
Namur also reacted and advised the same: "Yes, Abu, we only have 10,000 warriors in our hands now. Even if we recruit them, there will only be about 30,000. It is difficult to beat Han Naji and Tuo
Those who are separated from the alliance can only gain an advantage by quickly joining forces with Zhongjin Hatun and expanding the number of warriors in their hands to 50,000."
Xin Ai's sons finally couldn't do addition and subtraction within ten, and they all came to persuade Xin Ai not to hesitate. Even the rabbit master... no, it was Borha Rabbit Taiji. He also forgot about his previous nonsense.
Come quickly to persuade Xin Ai.
Xin Ai said hesitantly: "But I'm already sixty years old, so I'm afraid Zhongjin Hatun may not be happy with it."
Burihatu said loudly: "What matters when Hatun remarries is not her age, but her status! Abu is the eldest son of the Great Khan, Huang Taiji! Even if Dacheng Taiji's status is lower than Abu! If she doesn't marry Abu,
Who else do you want to marry?"
Xin Ai was still a little hesitant and said hesitantly: "But what should I give as a betrothal gift? You should have heard of Zhongjin Hatun to some extent. This is a woman who loves wealth, and she has three sons. If I can't give them one
Arrangement, I'm afraid Zhongjin Hatun won't marry me."
"What's so difficult about this?" Burihatu said loudly: "The Western Shao is so powerful among all the tribes that it seems to be too strong. It just makes Han Naji himself want to die. As long as he is defeated, the Dacheng Tai Ji Department will be given to him.
What about the three of them?"
Xin Ai's eyes lit up and she was immediately tempted.
Who would have known that it was useless for him to be tempted, and the other sons actually stopped working. The fourth son, Hamu, frowned at Duer and said, "Give the Dacheng Taiji part to three little boys? I said, third brother, you are not in a hurry."
Are you confused? You don’t know how powerful Dachengtai Yoshibe is? We brothers don’t want such a piece of fat, but we give it to three outsiders?"
Burihatu frowned and said: "Fourth brother, we have to have foresight and talk about this first. As for whether they can divide it or not, that is a matter for the future. There are at least ten years. Within ten years, it will happen.
Who can guarantee what will happen? What if these three little kids all die?"
If it was so clear, Borha Rabbit actually didn't understand, and shook his head and said: "That's no good, it's not up to us to decide whether they die or not. What if they are all alive and kicking until they grow up? I don't agree, Dachengtai
Jibe can only be divided among us brothers."
Burihatu was furious and said coldly: "Dacheng Taiji is still alive and well. If he had not died, no one would be able to get a sheep!"
Several other people originally understood what Burihatu meant and knew that he meant that there would be plenty of time to find a way to kill those three little guys in the future, but the idiot Borhatu's stupid words reminded them again - just in case.
Didn't they die? When they grow up, will the fat Dachengtai Yoshibe really be given to them?
You know, if Abu makes a promise and makes a big deal in the future, he won't be able to slap himself in the face.
Mongolia is not like the Ming Dynasty. Everything is not decided by the emperor. Even if the decision was made yesterday, it can be decided again today by changing his mind. Since the reform of Dayan Khan in Mongolia, Taiji is everywhere, and everyone is the descendant of Genghis Khan.
They are all members of the noble Golden Family. If you, the Great Khan, lose your prestige and everyone has their own tribes and men, and no one listens to you, then you, the Great Khan, will become nothing.
Therefore, the words of the Mongolian Khan cannot be changed casually.
So everyone hesitated again, their eyes flickered, and although they did not directly express their objections, they also refused to speak to express their agreement. It was obvious that they were all conflicted.
Xin Ai suddenly felt that his head was as big as a bucket, and his brain was dizzy for a while - his health was not good to begin with, and it was a typical Mongolian disease caused by eating too much greasy food. If we look at it in future generations, he would probably be a "three-year-old"
"High" patients, oh... it's hard to say high blood sugar, but high blood pressure and high blood lipids must not be present.
Xin Ai pinched the center of his brows hard, then beat his forehead, and then he became more awake and said: "How to divide Dacheng Taiji's tribes, we will talk about it later!" He sighed helplessly and said: "How about this?
, first tell Zhongjinhatun that Chatterji’s territory should be given to Butashri first... The other two are still too young, you might as well wait until they grow up, and I will think of a solution for them."
When Burihatu heard this, he was almost chilled to the waist. He sighed and said, "Abu, I'm afraid Zhongjinhatun won't agree to this."
"why?"
Don’t treat Butashri badly.”
Burihatu smiled bitterly and said: "But this kind of thing is not about the specific number, but the comparison."
"Comparison? What comparison?" Xin Ai didn't understand.
Burihatu sighed: "Abu, we can't just think about this matter from our own perspective, we have to think about it from the perspective of Dacheng Taiji and Zhongjin Hatun. Abu, think about it, if Abu is Dachengtai
Ji, will you let Zhong Jin and Hatun go without marrying him?"
Xin Ai was shocked: "Does this boy Han Naji also want to marry Jong Jin Hatun?"
"Why not?" Burihatu said with a wry smile: "Let's not talk about strength. Even in terms of age, the difference between the two of them is only a few years."
That means that it is much more suitable for Zhongjin Hatun to marry him than to marry you, my father.
Xin Ai's face suddenly turned ugly, but Burihatu, a good son, continued to attack him.
Burihatu said again: "Abu, think about it again. If you were Dacheng Taiji, how would you arrange the three Butashri brothers in such a situation?"
Xin Ai's face was as gloomy as water, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Of course I will give them my troops!"
Burihatu breathed a sigh of relief and said in his heart: Fortunately, he is not angry anymore. So he said: "Yes, I also think this is the best choice for Dacheng Taiji. After all, he is not short of followers and money. As long as
Marrying Zhongjin Hatun, even without our tribe, will not affect his ability to be a stable Chechen Khan. In this case, it is a generous act of generosity to others, so what is there to feel bad about?"
Only then did Xin Ai's other sons realize the seriousness of the problem and began to hesitate again, but to their surprise, Mr. Rabbit... er, Borha Rabbit actually said something, "This group can't be raised."
If the idiots who live cattle and sheep are forced so hard, it's amazing that we will vote for Tumen!"
Xin Ai's mind was filled with thoughts of Tumut and Chahar competing against each other. He didn't react for a moment. When he heard this, he angrily shouted: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Who knew that Burihatu was reminded by him, his eyes lit up, and he said: "Hey, yes, there are Tumen..." While speaking, his eyes kept rolling.
Xin Ai was a little confused and frowned: "What do you mean, what do you mean there are still pictures?"
"Abu, wait, let me think about it..." Burihatu walked quickly, spinning in circles while pulling the Mongolian beard on his chin.
Xin Ai knew that Burihatu was his smartest son, and the situation was critical now, so he didn't dare to put on Abu's airs and rush him, so he had to suppress the eagerness in his heart and wait for him to think clearly. The other brothers did not dare to interrupt him.
All I could think about was staring at him.
But Burihatu didn't pay attention to the eyes of his brothers. He just frowned and raised his face for a while, obviously weighing them carefully.
After talking for a while, Xin Ai felt a little thirsty. She glanced at the silver cup she had slapped on the table before and wanted to pick it up and take a sip. Who knew that the kumiss in the cup was shaken by his forceful slap?
All the water has splashed out.
In this situation, he couldn't ask for wine, so he had to hold back.
At this time, Burihatu finally spoke and said with a smile: "There is a way!"
Everyone, including Xin Ai, looked at him, and Xin Ai hurriedly asked: "What can I do?"
"Since we can't afford the price Zhongjin Hatun wants, let's find another customer and go to Tumen!"
Xin Ai was stunned: "Looking for Tumen? How to find him? Why are you looking for him?"
Burihatu chuckled and said: "Are you looking for Tumen... Of course we are looking for the Great Khan of Mongolia to help us uphold justice."
Xin Ai said incomprehensibly: "He is nothing like the Great Khan of Mongolia? Look at when did you, Abu, take him seriously? Not to mention your Ebuge, who asked Zalik to go to Chahanhot before.
It’s just seeing that several other departments have sent people, so you, Erbug, are just reluctant to accept it.”
Burihatu smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Don't worry about that. Anyway, the jade seal of our great Mongolian country is in his hands, so he has to take responsibility - take responsibility for all Mongolia."
Regarding the "Great Mongol Kingdom", here are a few explanations. In 1271, based on the need to rule the Han Dynasty, Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, officially established the country's name "Dayuan" in Chinese, but the Mongolian "Great Mongol Kingdom"
" was not abandoned, but both were used together to form a dual system of national title system.
In 1368, the Yuan Dynasty retreated to Mongolia. Because the country was still called Dayuan and it was located in the north of the Great Wall, it was called "Northern Yuan". Although the Ming Dynasty recognized its independence, it denied its inheritance from the Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty
People believe that the Ming Dynasty brought about the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and that the Yuan Dynasty was over. The Ming Dynasty was the orthodox dynasty of China. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty called the Emperor Yuan "Jun Yuan, Lord Yuan" and called the country "Remnant Yuan" and "Gu Yuan".
, "Hu Yuan".
According to the "History of the Ming Dynasty", in 1402 Brigate Ugqi changed the name of the country to "Dayuan" and renamed it Mongolia.
However, future generations know that the "History of the Ming Dynasty" is full of errors and omissions. In fact, the historical materials recorded by the Mongols, "The Origin of Mongolia" and "The Outline of Golden History", do not record the abolition of the "Dayuan" country title.
If it is based on the "Records of the Ming Dynasty", in 1453 Brigate Esen claimed to be the "Great Khan of the Great Yuan Dynasty"; Borjijin Batu Mengke claimed to be the "Great Khan of the Great Yuan Dynasty"; and later Buyan
Chechen Khan (not from Tumote, but from Chahar, who also introduced the Yellow Sect at that time, and also received the title of Chechen Khan) was proclaimed Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.
So no matter what, what Burihatu means is that you, Tumen, are the lord of the entire "Great Mongolia". Now there are people here who don't act according to the rules. You, whether you are the emperor or the Great Khan of all Mongolia, will have to do it anyway.
Responsible for processing.
Xin Ai finally began to understand, her eyes lit up, and she asked: "You mean, drag Tumen into the water?"
Uh, don't say it so bluntly.
Burihatu hesitated for a moment, coughed dryly, and said: "I mean, the Great Khan should look like a profuse sweat, and do what the Great Khan should do. Thirty thousand Tumut households are the three Tumut households in Mongolia.
Ten thousand households, now there are people in 30,000 households who are not abiding by the ancestral rules. How can he, the Great Khan, stand by and watch? Of course, we can't let him say that he doesn't know, so... we should send someone to notify him immediately and ask him to intervene.
."
Xin Ai nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we want the Great Khan to intervene...but what if he sends troops?"
"It will be troublesome if he doesn't send troops!" Burihatu said: "Abu, you just said it yourself, his title of Great Khan is not very useful. If he just sits in Chahanhot and shouts a few times,
, Dacheng Taiji will just think that he just farted, and he won’t even bother to deal with it, so aren’t we busy in vain? It’s better to use 30,000 to 78,000 to 80,000!”
Xin Ai's head tightened and he nodded: "Yes, yes, that's the truth. But if he sends troops...how many troops can he send? If he wins, will Tumut refuse to leave?"
Burihatu sighed and said: "So we have to negotiate the price with him... What I mean is that the Uliangha grazing land we occupied before must be returned. As for Tumen, what is the price?
Whether the pasture is returned to Duoyan or he occupies it himself, that is none of our business."
Xin Ai frowned slightly, but quickly said: "If you want to return the pasture of Wuliangha, just return it. With the whole Tumut, I don't care about this little bit of land."
Burihatu added: "This little territory alone is certainly not enough. We must also clearly recognize his status."
Xin Ai frowned and said: "What do you mean by this? Although I don't pay attention to your Ebuge or your Abu, I didn't come out to say that he is not a big Khan. To say that we don't admit that he is a big Khan.
If that’s the case, is it true that Zalik’s trip to Chahanhot is just a visit to visit relatives?”
Burihatu shook his head and said: "That's not what I mean. What I mean is that we - to be precise, you, Abu, you have to take the initiative to give him a title."
"A title?" Xin Ai frowned, but after thinking about it, she nodded slowly: "If you want a title, just give him a title. It doesn't hurt to make him happy. Anyway, he doesn't want me to give him cattle, sheep and pastures."
Burihatu still shook his head and said: "The cattle, sheep, pasture and tribesmen also need to give some to express their gratitude to him, but the amount can be discussed - oh, the pasture has just said that, it doesn't count.
."
Xin Ai pondered for a moment and nodded reluctantly: "Okay, give me more or less, lest anyone say I'm not heroic enough."
Burihatu then said: "As for whether he will stay in Tumote and not leave, this matter must be discussed in advance and decided in front of outsiders."
"Outsiders? Where do outsiders come from?"
Burihatu said: "Didn't he establish the Five Consuls? The ministers stationed in Chahanhot from other ministries are witnesses."
Only then did Xin Ai remember that there was still this problem. He was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Okay, okay, Burihatu, your head is more useful. I think this is what I will do with this matter."
Burihatu nodded and said: "Then, send someone to deliver a message to the elder brother, so that the elder brother can have a good talk with Tumen Dahan."
Xin Ai nodded first, then frowned a little, and said: "Zhalik doesn't know much about the inside story. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for him to talk about it. I think... Burihatu, why don't you go there in person?
, talk about this matter, and Abu will definitely give you more tribesmen in the future."
Burihatu was stunned for a moment and asked: "What should we do here, Abu... can you cope with it?"
