Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 981

"Report! Your Majesty, Ding Yu, the Marquis of Kaiyuan in Liaodong, has arrived."

Alutai was overjoyed when he heard the news, Ding Yu came at the right time, just in time for the Oala envoy to witness his close relationship with the Ming court, so as to fight for more opportunities for himself.Alutai glanced arrogantly at the envoy of Nawara, and said to the leaders: "All the leaders, please follow the king to welcome the original lord!"

Ding Yu is the Marquis, and Alutai was granted the title of king by Daming. He belongs to the rank of county king in the title of Daming, which is lower than the prince, but higher than the duke and earl. Ding Yu usually comes to him, and Alutai He would not go out to meet him in person. This time, he intended to show his prestige to Wala, so he went out to meet him in person.The Nawara envoy didn't know the truth of what he said, and he wanted to see the truth, so he followed him quietly.

In terms of interests, Ding Yu now represents Daming in the eyes of Alutai, and he is indeed very welcome.Arutai picked up Ding Yu and welcomed him in happily. Ding Yu saw the envoy of Wala lingering and following him at a glance, with a strange look on his face. That's why, but the man's expression and behavior are quite different from those of the generals around Alutai.

Ding Yu sat down and asked Alutai, "My lord, who is this...?"

Alutai looked sad, and said in a low voice: "Master Hou didn't know something, Wala came to invade, Alutai asked the little girl Tuya to lead a tribe to retreat first, but who knew that she was taken away by Wala..."

Ding Yu was shocked, and lost his voice: "Miss Wulantuya was taken away?"

Ding Yu knew that Ulan Tuya tried to assassinate Fu Guogong in Liaodong, but was released by Fu Guogong.

Now that time has changed, Wulantuya has become a spy sent by Fu Guogong to Zailutai for no reason. Ding Yu is not stupid, and An Neng is shocked because he doesn't know the hidden secrets.

However, Alutai thought that Ding Yu was really in love with Wulantuya, and he lost his composure when he knew that his sweetheart was arrested. He couldn't help but said sadly: "That's right! That's right, the old man was heartbroken when he heard the news, and now they send someone here to exchange People, I want to exchange Tuya for the Oala general Mandu Ratu who was captured by me..."

Ding Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and said happily: "It's so good, then just exchange it!"

Alutai said seriously: "Ulan Tuya is the adopted daughter of the old man, if she can be brought back, why would the boss refuse? But the old man is very willing, and he can't do this!"

Ding Yu was taken aback for a moment, and said in astonishment, "Why is this?"

Alutai said: "Master Xu! That Mandu Ratu burned my food and grass, raided my camp, burned, killed and looted, and his hands were stained with the blood of countless people from my tribe..."

Ding Yu was displeased, frowned and said: "This is not a personal enmity. How can the two armies be merciful when they are at war? Now that the battle has been settled, is it possible to sit back and watch the captured people be killed by the other party? At worst, it is exchanged. Let's fight again!"

Alutai said: "Of course, what the Lord Hou said is reasonable. However, there is still one of our generals, Ars, who has fallen into the hands of Oala. Ars Leng must be brought back first! If they are willing to exchange Ars Leng and Ulan Tuya back, it would be okay to ask me to replace a few more captured Wala leaders, but they don’t agree. So and so on , even if the old man is reluctant to give up, he can't be selfish!"

Speaking of this, Alutai couldn't help but burst into tears.In the crowd, Ars's father, the leader of Chaba's cadre Na Risong, was so excited that tears filled his eyes. He was not very loyal to Alutai, but at this moment, he was determined. Lu Tai's order is obeyed.

Ding Yu was waiting to say more, the words were on his lips, and suddenly swallowed them back.

At present, the battle between Oala and Tatar has been out of control, and Liaodong's early intervention is inevitable. Originally, he wanted to wait until Arutai's soldiers were exhausted, so that he could not resist at all, so he would fully accept the rule of Tatar, and By means of distributing food, clothes, felt tents, etc., the Tatar people were compiled and registered. Based on the successful experience of reforming tribes in Liaodong, the original establishment of the Tatars was broken, and the Tatar herdsmen were brought under the rule of the court.

Once the common people were directly controlled by the imperial court, the original leaders, high-ranking officials and nobles would become rootless grasslands and water without a source, retaining their existing wealth in vain, but their power would be gone, and they could only rely on the imperial court. Driven by the imperial court, this is a great event for the imperial court.At that time, it is not possible to use both soft and hard tactics, and to pull a group to fight a group, and to use bloody methods against the herdsmen and nobles who resist reform.

The nomadic herdsmanship is strong and powerful, and the grassland is vast, so it is impossible to apply the law of governing the people in the Central Plains. Therefore, it can only divide its power to disperse its power, divide its land and govern its people, and through a long period of integration and governance, it is called They are attached to Daming and can no longer get rid of it.To achieve this goal, they can only take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once the opportunity is missed, it will not work to slow them down.

If he fights for Miss Sakura again, this old fox will probably turn passive into active and lead him away by the nose.What he said was righteous, how could I force him?If you do that, the old fox will be more hypocritical, but it will win the hearts of the army and the people. Now that Arutai still has a certain strength, it is not appropriate to divide and disintegrate the ruling group of Tatars.

Furthermore, Ding Yu is different from Xia Xun. He is a man born and bred in this era. Jiangshan is more important than a woman, but his concept is similar to that of Alutai.In his mind, even if the Duke loves this Miss Sakura, with the Duke's power and position, what kind of stunning woman can't be recruited immediately?She will definitely not affect the progress of the imperial court's plans for her. If she makes a rash claim, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating.

With this in mind, Ding Yu didn't dare to make his own claims. He just wanted to report the news to the Duke and let the Duke deal with it.

Alutai glanced at Ding Yu slyly, seeing him bowed his head and remained silent, with an ever-changing expression, he couldn't help but feel secretly proud.

In such a move, he not only won the hearts of the army and the people, but also made Ding Yu, the Kaiyuan Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, turn against Oala. If Ulantuya has been doing well, Ding Yu will definitely force Oara to let go after he asks the Ming court for mediation. At that time, I don't have to lose the hearts of the people because I exchanged the enemy generals that the whole family hates for the righteous daughter.If Ulan Tuya was abused, abused or even executed, wouldn't this Kaiyuanhou who liked Tuya become Oala's enemy?

Based on the usual habit of the grassland tribes in treating captives, since Ulantuya has lost the value of exchange, it is very possible that Huo Ahatun would humiliate her and even execute her in order to explain to the tribe. Among the clansmen, he gained a good reputation of being willing to cut off personal relationships for the benefit of the clansmen, but Wala didn't know that Ding Yu loved Tuya very much, so he recruited a strong enemy for himself for no reason.

The more Alutai thinks about it, the more complacent he becomes. Readers may be surprised by his mentality: Why is this man ruthlessly abandoning his adopted daughter who has made great contributions to him, and instead will be embraced and dismissed by his clan?In fact, this has something to do with the customs of the tribe at that time. Don't look at the nomads outside the Great Wall who are fierce and aggressive, but they can fight for the grassland and water sources of the tribe, and they can fight for the spirit of men, but they will never fight for women. [Quality novel, real quality, good novel! 】

Even if this woman is the mother, wife, or daughter of the patriarch, if you start a war on the grounds that she was kidnapped or insulted, you will be cast aside by the tribe, who will think that you have no ambitions and no prospects, and you even sacrificed for a reproductive tool. Sacrificing the lives of many people is not worthy of being a leader.It was impossible to imagine them fighting over a woman like the Trojan War.

Although the so-called Trojan War was for Queen Helen, it was only a grandiose excuse for profound economic interests, but this excuse was at least accepted by all the people, and countless warriors were willing to sacrifice their lives for this reason. Here, such The reason cannot be uttered at all, and it can only be spurned and ridiculed by the whole people, so Alutai's calculation is not out of line.

Before Zhu Di arrived in Beijing, he received the urgent performance sent by Xia Xun on his eight-hundred-mile horse. After losing his vitality, Saibei was still a Tatar and an Oirat, and the two wolves chose the opportunity to devour him, so he made a decisive decision and immediately approved Xia Xun's suggestion.

During the trip, Zhu Di issued more than ten imperial edicts, ordering Liaodu Dusi, Nuer Gandusi, Shanxi Dusi, Shaanxi Dusi, Hamiwei, King Hami, King Bieshabali, and Beijing Xingbu to send troops respectively. In Nanjing, the prince who was in prison in Nanjing was asked to immediately raise military salaries and rations. At the same time, he issued an order of kindness to reward Nuer Gandusi, King Hami, and King Bieshabali, etc., to reassure him.

In view of the rapidly changing situation outside the Great Wall, Zhu Di was afraid of losing something, and ordered Xia Xun to rush to Liaodong immediately to preside over the situation in person. If there is no time to ask for an order, he can do it cheaply. He will cut it first and play later. It is inconvenient to hold a Tatar, so he is still allowed to sit in Beijing.

Xia Xun was secretly relieved when he learned that the emperor had made a decisive decision. It is still unknown how the situation will develop in the end, but at least everything that should be done has been done. Sorry for but not for.

Xia Xun has been in Liaodong for three years, and he knows it well. He has a high prestige among the Liaodong Third Division, the Jurchen tribes, and even the Duoyan Sanwei. It is the best candidate.Xia Xun didn't dare to neglect, immediately packed up and headed straight to Liaodong.

The new wind is like a knife, snow foam is flying all over the sky, cliffs are precipitous, forests are heavy, and a mighty dragon-like river is frozen by severe cold, with ice three feet thick.

More than a hundred warriors dressed in cold leather robes wrapped their whole bodies tightly, with only a line showing under their eyebrows, and marched hard in the heavy snow.

When they arrived at the big river, because there was snow on the ice and the road was too slippery, they had to walk on the ground. Then a frontier soldier who served as a guide approached the person in front, pulled down his watch, and breathlessly said: "Master, After crossing this river, about two miles away, there is a post station, and the post station there has begun to be equipped with sledges, and our speed is... we can get up quickly!"

The wind was too fast, and he poured it into his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth. After only saying these few words, the man coughed violently. Xia Xun nodded, squinted his eyes and looked at the opposite side, and suddenly saw three knights on the other side of the river. The horses were about to cross the river, and the three knights were all wearing bloated leather robes against the cold. They could not tell whether they were soldiers or civilians, but behind their shoulders, there was a small red triangular flag, which was clearly the post of the military post. died.

Xia Xun stopped, and ordered: "There are people coming from the opposite side, let's not do it first, wait for them to come, and ask about the situation in Liaoji!
