Just when Tumen Khan felt that this had nothing to do with his unification of Mongolia, and that it was only Xin Ai who benefited, he heard Burihatu say: "Does the Great Khan think that antagonizing Tumut from east to west has nothing to do with the Great Khan's unification of Mongolia?
Good thing, right?"
Tumen Khan glanced at him, but did not answer, just smiled pretending to be profound.
Burihatu ignored his pretense and continued: "Assuming that Tumut really has a situation where the east and west posts are in opposition, does the Great Khan really believe that it is a real balance? For example, the Great Khan
Does Khan think Zhongjin Hatun will be of the same mind as Chechen Khan? I don’t think so.
Zhongjin Hatun is a well-known pro-Ming faction. As long as Han Naji's power is not eradicated, Zhong Jin Hatun will have hope that pro-Ming is still feasible, and since Han Naji can continue
Relying on the vast areas of Daban Shengcheng and Xishao to trade with the Ming Dynasty, its strength can continue to be maintained. At this time, coupled with Zhongjin Hatun's leaders and rats, Chechen Khan will inevitably be at a disadvantage both overtly and covertly.
"
"Ben Khan can help him!" Tumen Khan emphasized.
"The Great Khan can indeed help Chechen Khan, but can't the Ming Dynasty help Han Naji?" Burihatu spread his hands and said: "So what if the foreign aid from both sides cancels each other out? Han Naji's
The strength is still greater than that of Chechen Khan. Once Zhongjin Hatun turns to Bahannaji either overtly or covertly, Tumut will still be in the same situation as today. By then, Chechen Khan's status will be difficult to maintain. Sooner or later,
We will still be annexed by Hannaji!"
Burihatu paused slightly, emphasized his tone, and said categorically: "So, if the Great Khan sets his primary goal as naturalization, it is not saving Tumote, let alone saving Mongolia. It is just letting Tumute survive.
Just a few days will not help anything."
Tumen Khan was silent for a moment and asked slowly: "So, it's different if we win the battle first and win the city?"
"Of course!" Burihatu said decisively: "If we can win the big board first to ascend the city, that is what the Han people say, 'shoot the man first, shoot the horse, capture the thief first, capture the king'. Once the big board is lost, the city will be defeated.
The foundation of Han Naji was cut off. As I just said, it is hard to say whether the Ming Dynasty at that time would still think Han Naji was worth supporting.
And once Han Naji is gone, the overall situation of Tumote will be decided. Just a Zhongjin Hatun cannot stir up big waves. By then, Chechen Khan will be greatly favored by the Great Khan, and he will have to be both emotional and rational.
As long as the Great Khan obeys his orders, otherwise who would be willing to obey him? Since Tumut obeyed the orders of the Great Khan, the right-wing Mongolia will naturally submit to the banner of the Great Khan. At that time, the banner of the Great Khan will point to
This is where our Mongol troops are heading, and the glory of Dayan Khan will be restored in the hands of the Great Khan..."
If Burihatu had been born four or five hundred years later, he would definitely have been a pyramid schemer. These words were extremely inflammatory, especially because he emphasized the restoration of the glory of Dayan Khan's era, which scratched Tumen Khan's itch.
"There is some truth in what you said." Tumen Khan said slowly and authentically: "It's just that I am worried that if I go beyond naturalization and go to Daban Shengcheng first, what if Zhongjin Hatun sneak attacks from behind..."
Burihatu shook his head and said: "There is nothing to be afraid of Zhongjin Hatun. Instead of worrying about her sending troops to attack, it is better to worry about Han Naji getting the news and sending out a large army to rescue him. However, that is exactly what I want to see.
, I believe the Great Khan would also like to see this scene."
Tumen Khan's mind turned and he nodded: "You mean, if we do this, we will be able to 'attack him and save him', and if he abandons the trap in the south and pursues us to Daban Shengcheng, we will
On the contrary, I have the opportunity to relax and wait for work.”
Burihatu smiled slightly and said: "The Great Khan is wise, this is what the Han people call turning passivity into initiative."
This is indeed a very common strategy in the Han people's thousands of years of war art. If you attack it, you must save it, and surround it with reinforcements. However, although the Han people have many military strategies and many people have learned them, there are only a few that can be used effectively.
, as a Mongolian Taiji, Burihatu has such knowledge and ability, which is indeed a bit of a bargain.
The Great Khan of Tumen was extremely satisfied when he heard this, and was about to nod in agreement, but a spy came to report: "Great Khan, our department has found out the news about the southern route. The Ming Dynasty's plenipotentiary envoy Gao Pangshi appeared in Shacheng, northwest of Zhangjiakou Fort, that is.
Former Zhongdu!”
Tumen and Burihatu both looked at each other with stern looks and asked at the same time: "Gao pragmatism appeared in Shacheng?"
Tan Ma immediately expressed his determination.
The two looked at each other, frowned together, and put aside the topic for the time being, thinking about the meaning of Gao Pragmatic's appearance in Shacheng.
Tumen Khan may be really "wise but too late". He was still hesitating for a long while, but Burihatu took the initiative to ask: "What other news? I mean Shacheng."
Tan Ma hesitated for a moment and said, "There is some news, but... it's a little weird."
Burihatu's eyes flashed, and he immediately asked: "It's fine if you have it. Don't worry about whether it's weird or not, just say it."
Tan Ma then said: "There is a large caravan of Ming people in Zhangjiakou who sent a lot of celebration items to Shacheng. There are some Ming troops in Shacheng who are practicing all day long, but they don't look like they are practicing battle formations. I don't know what they are busy with."
What... Also, the sand city has been renovated inside and out, and it seems that it is still being cleaned vigorously, just like what the Ming people in the Southern Dynasties did when they were celebrating the New Year."
Tumen Khan was puzzled when he heard this, and frowned and said: "This high pragmatism is too particular, isn't it? He doesn't marry a wife and live in Shacheng permanently, so what is he doing with all these tricks? These scholars from the Southern Dynasties are really good at showing off."
However, Burihatu had a cautious look on his face, shook his head slightly, and said in deep thought: "Khan, I'm afraid this is not a pragmatic way of showing off."
Tumen Khan was stunned and asked: "Who is that?"
"Emperor of the Han people." Burihatu frowned deeply: "Great Khan, I am worried that the Ming court will use Shacheng to make some fuss."
"Using the sand city to make some articles? How can a ruined wall that was burned down by fire more than two hundred years ago be useful?" Tumen Khan said that he couldn't understand it at all.
"Since the Great Khan remembers that Shacheng was burned down by fire, then the Great Khan naturally also knows what Shacheng used to be."
"Ha, of course Ben Khan knows that, that is the Zhongdu of my Great Yuan...er, the Zhongdu of the Great Yuan?"
Zhongdu of the Yuan Dynasty served as the capital for a very short period of time, only three years, and the entire city was burned down by the Red Turban Army in only fifty years. However, in any case, this place was once one of the "Four Capitals" of the Yuan Dynasty.
Under certain special circumstances, it has a special meaning.
Tumen Khan originally said casually, but then suddenly became a little stunned, precisely because he thought of this.
Sure enough, Burihatu's face became heavy and he said: "Gao Pragmatic is a very capable person. I am worried that he will use his past status in Zhongdu to make an issue. For example... he does not plan to enthrone King Shunyi in Guihua City, nor
Instead of going to Daban to raise the city, I deliberately chose the former Zhongdu of my Yuan Dynasty as the place to enthrone King Shunyi."
Tumen Khan subconsciously felt that this was very possible, but he couldn't understand the reason for a while, so he couldn't help but ask: "Although that place used to be my Yuan Zhongdu, after all, it was burned long ago, and now it is just a piece of land."
The ruins are even jokingly called Sand City. Does he really want to enthrone King Shunyi there? Isn’t it too shabby?”
"Hospitable?" Burihatu shook his head: "That's not a problem. Didn't Tanma say that the Ming people transported a lot of celebration items from Zhangjiakou to Shacheng, and Shacheng was also renovated? In addition, there were also Ming troops.
We were practicing there, but it happened that we were not practicing battle formations. I think we were practicing the canonization ceremony of King Shunyi."
"Is it better to be canonized in Shacheng than in naturalization?" Tumen Khan was a little unbelievable: "What's so good about it?"
"What's the good thing? The good thing is that naturalization is only the naturalization of Tumote, and Zhongdu is the Zhongdu of the Great Yuan Dynasty." Burihatu looked worried and said: "Related to the previous relationship between Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang
Send troops, I am now afraid that Gao Jingjing is no longer satisfied with just a Tumut, he may have evil thoughts about the entire Mongolia."
