Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

The Great Khan Lianhua was not a reckless person. The reason why he stayed in the Left Rear Banner of Khorchin without taking any action was that he was very confident in the strength of his army and wanted to wipe out all the pro-Qing tribes in the south of the desert. He also wanted to wait for the hidden chess piece to be activated. A few days ago, he captured the Taiji Dushihuoer of the Right Rear Banner of Khorchin, and persuaded him to surrender by conferring the title of Khorchin Prince on his father. He also generously released a thousand Khorchin prisoners of war, which was equivalent to planting a hidden chess piece in the Khorchin tribe. Now it was time to wait for this chess piece to play a role.

"Your Majesty, if Nadushihuoer's surrender is false, and you remain silent here, wouldn't that give the Khorchin tribe a chance to catch their breath?" asked Hu Lianqi, the Left Censor-in-Chief, who understood his intention.

"It's okay. I was not joking when I said that I would wipe out the Khorchin tribe and other tribes affiliated with the pseudo-Qing Dynasty. What? Don't you have confidence in David's army?" Sultan looked at Hu Lianqi with a smile.

Hu Lianqi's heart tightened, but he stood up straight and advised: "I am just worried that these tribes in the south of the desert will be gathered by the Khorchin tribe to fight against you. A single tribe is not to be feared, but if they gather together, they will have a lot of troops!"

"Well, that makes sense," Sultan nodded slightly, and suddenly laughed heartily again, "But I still decided to give Wu Keshan and Manzhu Xili time to gather the army. The battle was going too smoothly all the way north, and I just want to have a hearty battle. Mr. Hu, there are only a few chances to fight in life, so don't persuade me anymore. Do you dare to fight with me?"

Hearing these words, Hu Lianqi felt his blood burning in his chest. Although he was a civil official, he straightened his chest and shouted, "How dare I disobey your command!"

However, things in the world are always strange. The Great Khan wanted to fight the Khorchin people and wait for his hidden chess piece Dushihuoer, but there was no news about Dushihuoer. Instead, he received a military report sent by Baoyin, the third son of the emperor and the King of Chu, who was stationed in Shenyang. The military report said that Bahai, the Angbang Zhangjing of Ningguta of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty, was very good at fighting. He first defeated the army of Babai, the head of the Wanhu in Monan, and drove Babai back to Fushun; then he turned to southern Liaoning and defeated Wang Guotai's troops of Jinzhou General in succession on the Yalu River and Xiuyan, forcing Wang Guotai to retreat to Gaizhou and dare not leave the city. Baoyin gave Bahai a high evaluation, believing that this person and his Solon soldiers were the biggest obstacles for David to pacify the area outside the Great Wall.

"Hmph! Baoyin is good in every way except that he is too cowardly. How about Bahai? How about the Sauron soldiers? Are they qualified to stop my horse's hooves?" When the Lotus Khan saw the military report presented to him by his third son, he was very displeased.

Baoyin, the prince of Chu, was born to him and Ning Fei Suolang Tsom. Among the concubines in the harem, Suolang Tsom was born in a humble family. She was originally a singer of the Lhasa noble family, Zhong Mei Nai. Because of her beautiful appearance and good singing, she caught the eye of the then hot-blooded Oirat war god. Zhong Mei Nai, who was good at observing words and expressions, immediately recognized Suolang Tsom as his adopted daughter and presented the beautiful girl to the new master of Lhasa. Because of her humble origin, although she had been in the palace for a long time, Suolang Tsom's status was not high. Ning Fei, who was ranked last among the eight concubines in David's harem, "Xian, Shu, Zhuang, Jing, Hui, Shun, Kang, Ning", and Baoyin were not valued much among the princes. Of course, this was only relative to the queen, imperial concubine, concubine and other concubines. For An Fei Fatima, Xi Fei Zhenya, De Fei Si Ji Mo De Ge and others who entered the palace later, Ning Fei and the prince of Chu still had a very high status. Sultan did not like Baoyin very much, which might be related to Baoyin's personality. Because he had no strong maternal power to rely on, the young King of Chu was much more mature than his peers. He liked to ask for instructions and never made decisions easily. In the eyes of the Great Khan, this was indecisiveness and lack of courage, and he felt that the son was not like his father. Even though Baoyin was brave in battle and filial to his father, he still didn't like her very much.

If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object! How pitiful are the hearts of parents in the world! In order to make his son a pillar of society as soon as possible, the old father decided to severely punish his son and wrote him a letter with strong words: "I let you garrison in Shenyang, and I actually entrusted all the military affairs of Fengtian Prefecture to you. Bahai, a mere soldier with only a few thousand soldiers, was able to force Babai to retreat to Fushun and Wang Guotai to retreat to Gaizhou. This is truly a shame for our army! You are not ashamed, but praise the enemy's bravery. How can this be? Even if the Solon soldiers fought bravely, they were only a few thousand. When I first started my army, there were powerful enemies all around, and there were many that were more ferocious than tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves. How could I be afraid? Now you have an army of more than 10,000. After receiving Wang Guotai's letter for help, you just need to send troops to rescue. Why ask me? Since you asked me, I order you to lead your troops to Gaizhou immediately and take Bahai's head. The descendants of Yikmin'an can be defeated by the enemy, but they can never be frightened by the enemy!"

This letter was very destructive. After reading it, the deeply stimulated King Baoyin of Chu immediately ordered Erke, Duke of Lu, to stay in Shenyang and surrounding areas, and personally led 6,000 troops to Gaizhou, vowing to fight to the death with Bahai, the Angbang Zhangjing of Ningguta.

After dealing with the military reports from southern Liaoning and scolding his son, the Great Khan Lianhua felt better. He ordered the Grand Secretary and Minister of Rites, Bobey, to write letters to the taijis of the tribes of Balin, Zarut, Alukorqin, Zhalai, Durbert, and Gorlos in southern Mongolia who still obeyed the orders of the Qing Dynasty to persuade them to surrender. In the letter, he regarded himself as the leader of all Mongolia, talked about the hatred of the Qing army for forcing Lin Danhan to death and exterminating the Yuan Dynasty, and claimed to restore the Yuan Dynasty and avenge his hatred. It was hard to say about other tribes, but he still had confidence in the Durbert Banner. This banner was composed of the Durbert tribes who defected to the Qing Dynasty during the Oirat Civil War. It was considered a part of the Oirat Mongols and should submit to me.

He had written a lot of letters persuading him to surrender, but had not received a reply yet, when two arrogant guests came. Bobey reported that Perfiliev and Ablin, messengers from the Great Emperor of Russia, wanted to see him.

"What? The Russians? A night owl comes into the house for no reason!" Sultan frowned unhappily. Coming from later generations, he had always been deeply suspicious of the polar bears' big appetite. Although Tsarist Russia at that time did not have as vast a territory as later generations, its appetite was not much smaller than that of later generations.

In fact, Perfiliev and Ablin went to Beijing to meet Emperor Shunzhi first, to discuss the demarcation of the Sino-Russian border in the Heilongjiang River Basin. Not long after arriving in Beijing, they heard that Bahai, the Angbang Zhangjing of Ningguta, had defeated the Russian army and driven the Russian army out of the Heilongjiang River Basin. After reading the letter of credence they presented, Emperor Shunzhi was angered by the arrogant wording in the letter and ordered that they would not be received. They waited and waited but could not see the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, so they had to leave Beijing in disgrace. When they arrived in Liaodong, they heard that Wei and Qing were fighting, so they ran to the Great Khan of Lianhua to try their luck.

Sultan wanted to refuse the meeting, but then he changed his mind and realized that he was at a critical stage of conquering the border areas. He could not bear the consequences, so he held back his temper and met the two envoys cordially. As expected, the two Russian envoys arrogantly demanded the demarcation of the border. The land north of the Heilongjiang River, including the large areas that originally belonged to the Beishan Jurchens and the Wild Jurchens, should all belong to Tsarist Russia. In addition, they should be allowed to trade freely in the area south of the Heilongjiang River.

"Hahaha~ Dear guests, are you mistaken? The areas you mentioned are still in the hands of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty. What does it have to do with me?" Sultan laughed and said, "As long as you abide by David's laws, I welcome your merchants to trade with David at any time. As for the demarcation of the border, let's talk about it after I defeat the pseudo-Qing Dynasty." After that, he ordered wine to be served and never saw the two Russians again, citing his busy military affairs. (End of this chapter)
