The struggle of the reborn prince

The Mughal tribe, which suffered a disastrous defeat, has experienced several splits, and those who have no strength on the grassland will not be respected and cannot survive. What can actually be controlled is only a loose alliance of brothers from the Hebrew line.However, the past territory was re-divided, and the Tatars took advantage of the victory to continuously invade and attack. The Mughal tribe could only continue to migrate to escape to more remote and barren areas, living in a difficult life and on the verge of being annexed at any time.

Under such circumstances, the Mughals began to reflect on what they had done.The reason why Hebuler rose under the heavy losses of the Jurchens at the beginning was to rely on the alliance with the Song Dynasty, and with its support, he obtained a large area of ​​territory.Afterwards, the Merqi tribe in the north and the Wanggu tribe in the south were defeated by the Song Dynasty and moved inland; the Kere tribe in the west and the Naiman tribe in the west were also defeated in the Western Expedition of the Song Dynasty, and the remnants Retreat to the colder north; the Tatar tribe in the east surrendered to the Kingdom of Jin.

It was precisely because of the strong intervention of the Song Dynasty in the desert area that the Jurchen forces were expelled, and the situation where the six heroes stood side by side on the grassland was broken. In addition, some remaining small tribes were absorbed and annexed by the two tribes respectively, so that the Mughal tribe became the main force on the grassland. Overlord, reached the most glorious period in history.But with Hebuler's death, although An Bahai still keeps the oath he made with Song Dynasty, he has obviously begun to despise Song Dynasty, and the number of tribute horses has also been greatly reduced.

Although Iba children inherited the Khan position of the Mongol tribe for a short time, they set a bad example, which made them think that they were already full-fledged and could dominate the grassland without the support of the Song Dynasty.Da Song didn't say anything about this, but he must have felt their indifference, and secretly reduced the weapon assistance to the Mughal tribe.Reduced trade volume with it.Of course, my baby also felt Da Song's indifference towards him, but he didn't try to repair it.On the contrary, the Lunar New Year envoys that must be sent every New Year after the alliance is also omitted.

This abnormal relationship caused the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Mughal tribe to become increasingly cold, so that my baby was trapped by the Tatars.The news of being executed by Jurchen was obtained from other sources, and then someone was sent to ask to know the details.However, the Mughal once again missed the opportunity to repair the relationship between the two parties. They did not take the initiative to invite Song to participate in their meeting, nor did they report their revenge plan, and Hu Tuci did not go to Song to meet the emperor.

After Da Song knew that my baby was killed, he only verbally warned Jin Guo not to intervene in the tribal disputes among the grasslands, but he did not take any substantive actions, and did not mention the plan to assassinate the successor. thing.No envoy of condolence was sent to express condolences as usual, and military and economic aid basically came to a standstill.The old covenant between the two parties basically existed in name only, and they watched the Mughals fighting to death on the grassland with cold eyes, and stopped asking...

Now there are Tatars pressing every step of the way outside the Mughal Ministry, and the interior has been disintegrated and each seeks development. Hutu's life is very difficult.Although he moved the camp to Dayanluo near Dasong, the drought also affected here. The lake was dry and the vegetation was not full, and the livestock had to be full and emaciated.Many will not survive the coming severe winter.And these livestock are already their last property. If they lose the tribe, they will fall into further division. I am afraid that without the Tatars, they will die out by themselves.

How to survive this winter and spring famine has become the most urgent problem for the Mughal people.When Hebuler and Iba were children.They could get a certain amount of assistance from the Song Dynasty, or they could plunder other tribes with their strong soldiers and horses, or go deep into the territory of the Kingdom of Jin to fight grass valleys.But now they have lost all their elite soldiers after a big defeat, let alone robbing others.Now you have to watch out for others to rob them.Da Song only expressed sympathy for their plight, saying that he was also affected by the disaster on a large scale.It is no longer possible to care about them.

Hu Tuci saw that other tribes in the Song Dynasty were also affected by the disaster, and not only got the food and grass mobilized by the government.There are also caravans who bought their livestock that could not survive the cold winter at high prices, trying their best to reduce their losses and help them survive the famine. Some small tribes have crossed the border and entered the Song Dynasty in order to survive, but their Mughal tribes could not Obtaining such treatment has reached the point of desperation at this time.

However, it is not a bad thing for people to encounter some setbacks. The miserable scene in front of them allowed Hu Tuci to recede the fanaticism of revenge at the beginning, calmly think about how to deal with the complicated situation in front of him, and find the future of the Mughal tribe.After many days of thinking, he finally figured out that the strength of the Mughal tribe was due to the strong backing of the Song Dynasty. Without their support, the Mughal tribe fell into such a miserable situation in only three or two years, but all of this was in vain. It was caused by their rudeness and indifference to Da Song.At this time, Hu Tuci also heard that Song Dynasty had found a tribe in the grassland that would be loyal to them as a support target in order to reintegrate the various forces in the grassland. Obviously, Song Dynasty had given up their Mughal tribe.

Hu Tuci believes that Da Song's words are true, relying on their strength and prestige at this time, they are definitely not talking big. Years ago, he just gave a large territory to the Mughal tribe with just one sentence, and he hated them to the bone. The Jurchens didn't dare to take a step forward. Even though their covenant with Song Dynasty was collapsing at this time, the Jurchens still didn't dare to cross the border. They could only hunt and kill them under the hands of the Tatars. Luo took shelter temporarily, and it was because they were afraid of Da Song that they didn't dare to approach him.

Now the strength of the Song Dynasty is better than that of the previous years. The Song Dynasty can calmly deal with such a large drought and guarantee that no one will starve to death, and there will be no turmoil and epidemics. I am afraid that no country in this world can do it. .And their military force was even better than before, a partial division recovered Gaochang and repelled Xiliao, and a team of hundreds of people assassinated the leader of the country of assassins, causing a country to collapse.

At this time, as long as Da Song speaks, I am afraid that all the tribes on the grassland will flock to serve Da Song. Everyone knows that it is good to enjoy the shade under a big tree, let alone such a towering tree, they can stretch out a small fork. Shelter them from the wind and rain, and they will become the overlord of the grassland again in less than two years. The Tatars might not be able to withstand such a temptation. As long as Da Song waved, they might abandon the Jurchens and lean forward directly.

Hu Tuci knew that it was his own fault that finally led to this series of tragedies. If he was completely abandoned by Song Dynasty, then the Mughal tribe would really be defeated by him.In order to avenge and save the tribe, he decided to take advantage of the approaching New Year's opportunity to go to Beijing to meet him, and to plead guilty to the emperor face to face before the final hammer fell, in order to save the relationship between the two parties and regain the support of Song Dynasty.

However, the economic situation of the tribe is not as good as before, and the family property of the Mughal tribe has been exhausted after repeated battles and divisions.He couldn't go empty-handed when he came to Beijing to see the driver, but Hu Tuci couldn't get anything good, so he could only choose five horses from the remaining livestock that he could see well, including his own mount, He also personally shot and killed several wild beasts, and peeled off the animal skins as tribute gifts...

After a long journey, Hu Tu finally arrived at Bianjing before the New Year. The crowd is simply more than the cattle and sheep on the grassland.But there was no turning back when he opened the bow, he still inquired and went to Honglu Temple to hand over the sign before going to the post house for the night.

After staying there, Hu Tuci discovered that the people living in the hall were all envoys from all over the world. Not only were they brightly dressed, but they also brought a large amount of tribute. Not to mention having seen him, and even then he was not allowed to see him.He looked at his little things and couldn't help feeling ashamed, and then he remembered the strange expression on the officials of Honglu Temple when they saw the gift list handed over, and felt that his desire to see the emperor was even slimmer.

In the following days, while waiting for the summoning, Hu Tuci wandered around under the leadership of the old man who had accompanied Hebuler to Beijing, enjoying the elegance of the capital city of the largest country in the East, and relaxing by the way.But this not only failed to eliminate the depression in his heart, but made it even more distressing. Only then did he realize how shallow his understanding of the Song Dynasty was. Bianjing was just a city, but the wealth gathered was already at the peak of their tribe. Thousand times, ten thousand times,

And Song Jun's invincible demeanor Hu Tuci has already experienced it, and with such strong financial support, wouldn't it be invincible in the world.Thinking of Da Song's equal relations with his own tribe at the beginning, it had already given them enough face and taken advantage of it.It's a pity that I didn't cherish this opportunity, so the matter got out of hand. Now I have the cheek to beg to come to my door, even if I ignore it, I have nothing to say.

Seeing that the new year is approaching, many of the envoys from various countries who came to the pilgrimage in the posthouse have been summoned to hand over their credentials and get tickets for the New Year's Grand Court Meeting, but there is no one from the Mughal tribe. information.He went to Honglu Temple several times to inquire about news, but all he got was to wait.Today is the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, and there is only one day until the Great Court Meeting. Early in the morning, Hu Tuci was waiting in front of the gate of the post house, hoping to receive a notification from Honglu Temple, but it was already [-] noon, but he hadn't waited yet.

"Khan, it's not good, something will happen soon..." Just when Hu Tuci was restless, a companion who accompanied him ran over in panic and yelled.

"Quickly tell me, what's going to happen soon?" Hutu asked, grabbing his partner's collar.

"Big Khan, Ye Su Ying intercepted the emperor's holy car in the street and was taken away by the officers and soldiers!" The companion replied, and suddenly his expression changed when he heard it...(.)
