Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 603: Soldiers are impermanent, power is invisible, water is invisible

"Tangnu Ulianghai, Tuohite and I are fighting back again!" The horse galloped by the Ubud Lake, and Luobuzang looked up to the sky and roared. He was in an excited mood. It took no effort to fight back to his hometown this time. In front of the front line of the Guards, the Tushetu army that once chased him like a lost dog had already withdrawn to Urg (Kulun, Ulaanbaatar). This makes the offensive he launched more like a journey. Hearing that his tribe was back, many Tohuite herdsmen who had been separated during the war gathered around him again, making Altan Khan even more powerful.

"The Great Khan is still the water of Ubusu Lake and the native people of Tangnu Mountain," Gunbu Yildun said with a smile.

"Third uncle, please get your troops in order as soon as possible. I want to send troops to Urg and chop up Gunbu to avenge my second uncle." Eluoqin Luobu was filled with hatred. He really hated Tushetu Khan Gonbu, not only because he killed his second uncle Hang Tudai, but also because he shattered his dream of unifying Zasaktu and dominating Khalkha.

Hearing his nephew mention his second brother, Gonbuyilden felt gloomy, but as a veteran of the Hetuohite tribe, he was not only considering the family ties between his children, but also the interests of the entire tribe. In a slightly sad tone, he slowly said: "Great Khan, although Gunbu is hateful, I think that attacking the Tuxietu tribe immediately will not be beneficial to us and the Tuohite tribe."

"Oh, what does Third Uncle mean by this?"

"Great Khan, the main force of the Tuxie Tube is still there. If we help the guards attack the Tuxie Tube, the casualties will be huge. Now that we have recaptured the pastureland of Tangnu Ulianghai, the sons and daughters have a place to spend the winter. There is no We need to fight harder; besides, even if we help the Guards win, most of the population, wealth and pasture land will belong to the Guards, what good will it do to us? Why don't you sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and let the Guards fight with the Tuxie Tu tribe? You have to lose both sides and then profit from it.”

"But isn't the second uncle's revenge going to be avenged?"

"You are first the great khan of the Tuohite tribe, and then you are the nephew of Hang Tudai." Gunbu Yildeng burst into tears.

Eluoqin Luobuzang fell silent and tightened his horse. Finally, he raised his whip fiercely and galloped forward. "I will seriously consider Uncle San's words," Altan Khan's voice came from the wind.

When distinguished guests arrived at the magpie branch, the envoys of the Qing Dynasty, Sunahai and Luo Shuo, came to Tangnu Ulianghai. Instead of going directly to see Altan Khan Ephoqin Luobuzang, they went directly to Gonbuyilden. 's tent. The last time they were sent as envoys and the Tuohite Department were received by Gonbuyilden. Although they did not see Ephosqin Luobuzang, they made friends with Gonbuyilden.

"Taiji, I heard that you like tea. This time I brought you twenty boxes of fine Fu tea, all shipped from Jingyang, Shaanxi." Sunahai laughed.

"Oh, how can this be done? You are too polite," Gonbuyilden hurriedly declined.

"That's right. Last time we visited the Hui Special Department, we were grateful for your warm hospitality. It's okay to not be disrespectful when you come back," Luo Shuo said with a smile.

"We Mongolians have always been sincere to our friends. If you two have anything to say, please speak up," asked Gonbuyilden, who has a straightforward personality.

Sunahai and Luo Shuo looked at each other and said slowly, "I heard that your tribe and the Wei Kingdom have formed an alliance and want to jointly attack the Tuxie Tu tribe. Although Gunbu Khan has enmity with you, it is really right to destroy the Tu Xie Tu tribe." Is it good for you? Sultan Khan of Weiguo is very ambitious, and his goal is to annex the entire Khalkha. I am afraid that after the demise of the Tuxie Tu tribe, the next target will be you yourself."

Gonbuyilden sighed, "I have advised the Great Khan on this matter, but he doesn't listen!"

"Is there no other way?" Sunahai asked.

"Unless my brother comes forward to persuade me," Gonbuyelden thought for a while and said.

"Please Taiji take us two to see Ombu Erdeni Hutaiji," Sunahai and Luo Shuo requested in unison.

When people retire, they are free. Ever since the former Khalkha hero Ombu Erdeni passed the riding whip to his son Erqin Luobuzang, he has become leisurely. He spends his days either hunting or reading, or chatting with his wives and concubines about home affairs and discussing life. My body, which was not in good shape due to my busy schedule, slowly became healthy again.

On this day, as he was preparing to hunt yellow sheep in the grassland, his third brother Gunbuyilden brought two uninvited guests. After hearing that he was an envoy from the Qing Dynasty, the old man curled his lips and said, "If the black madam enters the house, something bad will happen." However, Mongolians are hospitable. After all, they are foreign envoys. It is not good to not see them, and they must be patient to see them again. "Distinguished guests, you have come all the way to see me, but do you have anything important to do?" Although he had no good impression of the Qing envoy, the sophisticated Huetaiji still pretended to be enthusiastic.

"I heard that your son wants to form an alliance with Weiguo and jointly attack the Tuxie Tu tribe. The Tuxie Tu tribe is a vassal of our Qing Dynasty. I am worried that this will provoke a war between the Qing Dynasty and the Tuohuite tribe. I am very worried. It’s unease,” Sunahai said.

"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Since it is my son's business, you can just look for my son. I am old and have long stopped caring about political affairs." Ombu Erdeni glanced at him sideways and said coldly, I picked up a Han Chinese "Zuo Zhuan" and read it with gusto.

"Do you also like to read "Zuo Zhuan"?" Luo Shuo suddenly said, "'Guo is the watchword of Yu; if Guo dies, Yu will follow him'. What does this sentence mean?"

After hearing this, Ombu Erdeni was shocked and said nothing.

Seeing that he remained silent, Luo Shuo shouted: "Sultan Khan of the Wei Kingdom is such a hero. How can his ambition be satisfied by just a Tuxietu tribe? Today you helped the Guards attack and destroy Tuxietu Ministry, they will come to your Tangnu Mountain to hunt tomorrow! In this case, why not form an alliance with the Tuxie Tu tribe to fight against the strong guards together; and then seek revenge on the Tu Xie Tu tribe after repelling the guards? You are a wise man, Naturally, we know the truth about dying lips and cold teeth. No need for me to say more. Where to go, please think carefully."

"Alas! Sir, what you said makes sense. Please go and rest first, and I will go and persuade my son." Ombu Erdeni sighed deeply.

Eluoqin Luobuzang was handling military affairs in the sweat tent when his old father walked in and asked, "What is my son busy with?"

"Eqi Ge, I am arranging my troops and horses, preparing to unite the guards to attack the Tu Xie Tu tribe and avenge my second uncle!"

"Okay! Wow! Your second uncle will be pleased if he knows this." Ombu Erdeni sighed and asked, "How does my son plan to use the army?"

Eluoqin Luobu Zang thought for a while and said: "Soldiers are unpredictable, and water is unpredictable. My son has not thought about it yet. He will wait until he is on the battlefield."

"Son! Soldiers are impermanent, and water is impermanent. Isn't this the relationship between countries?" Ombu Erdeni changed the topic, "There are no eternal enemies and friends in the world, only eternal interests. For Khan You must not be trapped by personal feelings."

"Eqi Ge, what exactly do you want to say?"

Ombu Erdeni said solemnly: "Now there are three families who want to compete for Khalkha: Weiguo, Tuxietu and us. Weiguo is the strongest, Tuxietu is the second, and we are the weakest. Arms are like the three kingdoms, and their power is The weak Sun and Liu united to fight against Cao Cao. We should also unite with Tuxietu to fight against the strong guards. How can you join forces to destroy Tuxietu? If Sultan Khan of the Wei Kingdom defeated Tuxietu's troops and then advanced his troops Turn to us, how can you resist when the time comes? The inheritance of our ancestors will be destroyed in one day!"

"This~" Eluoqin Luobuzang gritted his teeth, "But isn't the second uncle's revenge going to be avenged?"

"No matter how great the hatred between us and the Tuxie Tu tribe is, we all belong to Khalkha, and our surname is Bo'er Jijin. How can we help the Oirat people to fight against their own people? If you want to avenge your second uncle, wait until the guards retreat. Later, I will attack Tuxie Tubu and cut off Gunbu's head as a sacrifice to your second uncle."

"Eqi Ge, I understand. I have decided not to help each other, but to stay in Tangnu Mountain and watch the tigers fight." Eluoqin Luobuzang made up his mind.
