Autumn of the 17th year of Chongzhen

Chapter 1072

It is very easy for a nation on the grassland to perish, either because of a snowstorm, or because of a storm, or because of a tribal annexation war, or because of internal strife, and it often takes decades. Tribes may go into decline.

The pastures of the Zhungeer tribe were attacked. If the news spread, it would inevitably cause turmoil among the tribes who surrendered to Zhungeer, and even abandon Zhungeer.

Baturhun, whose hair was already gray, suddenly aged more than ten years.

The ethnic groups on the grassland have a narrow vision after all, and their intelligence work is also very limited. They did not expect that the Eight Banners would raid thousands of miles and raid the Zhungeer grassland.

Losing the pastures, cattle and sheep, the army of more than [-] Jungars is nothing but rootless duckweeds.

Baturhui must lead the people to fight back to the grassland, regain the pasture, as well as family members, cattle and sheep.

However, it is not easy for him to leave right now. One is to ensure that the Kingdom of Jin will not pursue and kill him, and the other is to keep his followers from dispersing, so he decided to conceal the matter and quickly returned to the north.

In the early morning of the next day, Batu Erhui built an altar in the camp outside Jiayuguan, offering sacrifices to Changshengtian, and proclaiming that he had become the Great Khan of Mongolia.

As soon as the ceremony was over, Baturhui announced that the emperor of the Kingdom of Jin was afraid of the mighty Zhungeer, and had already surrendered to him and agreed to his conditions.

Many tribal leaders naturally have doubts about this. If they didn't say they rejected Jin Guo yesterday, why did they suddenly change today?The envoy of the Kingdom of Jin did not return to Jiayuguan, so why did he agree to Mongolia's new conditions so quickly? Does the envoy have such great power?
After announcing that the Kingdom of Jin had surrendered, Batur Hunhan immediately said that he had received news that the Qing army would attack Moxi, and ordered the army to return north immediately.

Everyone felt a little strange, even if they wanted to return to the north, should they wait for the Jin Kingdom to send this year's silver and food, and then return north after everyone divides it.Right now, everyone is dying, and they haven't seen the benefits. It's a bit too hasty to return to the north in such a hurry.

This series of things seemed a bit evil no matter how you looked at them, but everyone didn't know what was wrong, and when the ministries heard that the Qing army was about to attack Mobei, they were all worried about their old nest, so they were eager to return to the north without thinking too much.

Baturhui said that the Qing army was about to attack Mobei. In fact, the Eight Banners had already swept the pastures of the Zhunge tribes. The tribes were either wiped out by the Eight Banners or surrendered, or migrated westward.

Many tribal leaders only thought that the tribe was still there. They were worried about being attacked by the Qing army, and there were no strong warriors in the tribe.

From their point of view, since they are no longer fighting the Kingdom of Jin, it is normal for them to return to the tribe to prepare, but Baturhui disagrees. Instead, they have their cattle and sheep slaughtered, and each Mongolian warrior only carries one dry ration. , and then headed to the west of the river together to join the troops led by Chechen.

The situation was urgent, and Baturhun hurriedly led the army to Hexi without waiting for Sengge, who was attacking Ningxia Wei, to join him.

Inside Jiayuguan, Hauge was walking outside, Han Chaoxuan walked quickly to the front of the house, several soldiers standing outside the door hurriedly stepped aside, the leading guard clasped his fists and said: "Xiangguo, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time!"

Jiayuguan is a pass, not a city. Haoge is very simple, just a very ordinary courtyard.

Han Chaoxuan walked into the courtyard, passed through a hallway, and arrived at the lobby.In the center of the lobby, there is a sand table, a scaled-down version of the Great Wall, across the rolling hills. Several officials from the Ministry of War are marking the latest situation on the sand table. Hauge is staring at the sand table with his hands behind his back, meditating silently.

After Han Chaoxuan came in, he bowed to Hauge, and the latter reacted. Seeing Han Chaoxuan who was already standing in the hall, he immediately asked anxiously, "Han Qing, what is the condition that Baturhui agreed to us?"

After Han Chaoxuan participated in the Khan ceremony of Baturhui, Choros Zhuote Babatur told him that the Great Khan accepted the conditions of the Kingdom of Jin and asked the Kingdom of Jin to prepare gold and silver and send them to the king of Zhungeer. court.

After the two sides reached an agreement hastily, Han Chaoxuan was sent back to Jiayuguan by the Mongols. Once he returned to the pass, someone reported it to Hauge in advance.

"Your Majesty, Baturhui did agree!" Han Chaoxuan heard the words, cupped his hands and said, "But I think his promise is a bit strange!"

It has been half a month since Hauge sent Korea and North Korea to go out to negotiate. After this battle, Jin Guo spent millions of taels of silver, and Hauge wanted to spend 50 taels to buy a temporary peace.

In history, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty did this, as did the Song Dynasty. You can't defeat Zhungeer like a strong man defeated the Xiongnu. No matter how bad you are, you can kill all opponents through comprehensive strength like Song.

Hauge's plan was good, but Batu Erhui directly refused, and the mere 50-year-old coin was not enough for him.

Until the day before yesterday, the Mongols' attitude was very tough, and they once attacked Jiayuguan, but now they suddenly changed their attitude and agreed to Jin Guo's conditions, which is naturally suspicious.

After hearing Han Chaoxuan's words, Hauge raised his eyebrows immediately, "What Han Qing means is that Dorgon has taken action?"

Han Chaoxuan nodded, "Zunger's change is too sudden. I really suspect that Dorgun may have sent troops, otherwise Baturhui would not suddenly change his attitude."

From Jin Guo's point of view, only Dorgon accepted Jin Guo's request for help and sent troops to attack Zhungeer who could force Zhungeer to change his attitude.

While the two were talking, Sonny suddenly entered the lobby and did not shy away when he saw Han Chaoxuan. Instead of saluting, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Zhungeer has withdrawn his troops!"

Hearing this, Hauge and Han Chaoxuan looked at each other, their eyes brightened, but before Hauge's delighted smile spread, he froze suddenly, and asked in a deep voice: "Could this be Baturhui?" Seeing that the key point is not broken, why did you intentionally lure me to chase him, and then suddenly kill him with a carbine?"

Haug was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes, so he became a little suspicious, but what he said was not impossible.

Several people in the hall were silent for a while. After all, the battle in the valley had caused too much harm to Jin Guo, and even now Jin Guo still has lingering fears.

"Your Majesty, why don't you go out and have a look, maybe you can find some clues to judge whether Baturhui is really retreating or fake!" Han Chaoxuan was silent for a while, then cupped his hands and said.

Hauge heard the words and Sonny glanced at each other, and he nodded immediately, "Okay, let's go outside the customs first!"

Jiayuguan, which had been closed for more than a month, was opened by soldiers of the Jin Army. Hauge went out under the escort of thousands of cavalry. He saw that Zhungeer's camp was empty, and many tents had not been taken away. Obviously, he left very quickly. hurry.

Hauge and the cavalry were walking slowly in the camp to check. At this time, a group of Jin Guo scouts came galloping in the distance. The leading member of the Jin army got off his horse and knelt on one knee to report: "Your Majesty, an abnormality has been found in the valley to the west!"

"What's abnormal?" Hauge raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the entire valley is full of slaughtered cattle and sheep!"

Hauge was startled when he heard the words, and hurriedly waved his horsewhip to let Tan Ma lead the way. Not long after they galloped, they arrived outside a valley, and suddenly a peculiar smell of cattle and sheep and a pungent bloody smell rushed towards them.

When everyone came to Taniguchi and looked inside, they were immediately stunned by the scene in front of them.

Hauge saw that the entire valley was covered with corpses of cattle and sheep, and the whole valley was scarlet. The blood of these cattle and sheep pooled together to form a thick stream.
