Chapter 1380 Karacha

The Siberian Khanate is a Khanate with a population of nearly 20. It is not too big or small in this land, and all tribes have the ability to smelt bronze and iron.

Not strictly speaking weak.

But maybe they got so caught up in tribal strife that they forgot how to fight.

Kuchu Khan's so-called great plan was to let the powerful leader of Karacha pretend to surrender in order to trap and kill Yermak, and then the army besieged the city of Isker.

The central idea is one: if we have a large number of people, we will win.

It is true that there are many people. All the ministries will form an alliance, not counting the Mingha coalition. There are nearly 2000 fighters within a radius of [-] miles of Kuchu Khan, and [-] people are gathering here from further away.

The war harvested the people of the Siberian Khanate one crop at a time, and now it is amazing to be able to gather [-] troops.

Their enemies numbered at most 3000, and [-] of them were the leaders of the Siberian tribes who would not die in battle and would fall against the wind.

The words that Gubai shouted out in front of the crowd were: Liang Dao.

Along the way, he has also seen the geography of the Siberian Khanate, a large area of ​​forest grassland and inconvenient swamps. The season has not yet turned cold, and it has begun to become cold here, and large areas do not produce food.

But from the beginning to the end, he never heard Kuchu Khan talk about strengthening the walls and clearing the country, nor did he decide to relocate the people inland, create no-man's land from the perspective of the ruler of the country, or allocate and dispatch troops, and stipulate various The military belongs to.

'We must resist the tsarist invaders', 'must kill Yermak'.

But as soon as Xibai opened his mouth, he understood that for Kuchuhan, maybe this was not a war between countries, and maybe these leaders never regarded it as a national war.

It was a mass tribal vendetta.

They are taking revenge.

In fact, it was useless even if he yelled it in public. Kuchu Khan was not only blind, but also deaf, and his sons had to yell in his ears when they were talking to him.

Even if you shouted loudly, you might not be able to hear it.

So Kuchu Khan couldn't hear what he said at all, and the old man just talked to himself on the hillside.

The people below really listened.

This is not a war leader of the Siberian Khanate, he is actually just the spiritual leader of the Siberian people.

Secondly, Qibai can indeed communicate with most Mongolians, just like Beijingers and Cantonese communicate in their own dialects. It is a bit difficult, but they can communicate.

But the problem is that each dialect has its own vocabulary, for example, the Liangdao spoken by Qibai.

Do serious people on the prairie use the word grain way?Soldiers with a few more horses have everything, especially like Siberia, a khanate that has been fighting each other for many years.

There is no need for grain at all.

When he uttered this word, people could not understand it.

But he still managed to attract the attention of another person, and seduced the executor of Yermak's plan to behead, Karachasutan.

Karacha is an important minister of the Khanate and a small khan in a part of the Khanate. His town is called Karacha. In August last year, the capital city of Karacha was occupied by Yermak, and it was immediately plundered.

This caused a huge shock to the hearts of the Khanate. Many people no longer believed that Kuchu Khan could lead them to drive away the enemy, but it also made the leader of Karacha Kuchu Khan's most solid ally.

"I'm blind and I can't hear anything. Yermak said that he wants to drive out Godless Satan Kuchum."

In Karacha Sutan’s yurt, Gubai crossed his legs and handed the hot horse milk tea from the East to Sutan, and listened to the old chief’s evaluation of Kuchu Khan: “He is too old to hold it. Knife, but he will fight to the end, will not back down, will not give up."

"good smell."

The leader of Karacha was in good health, wearing armor and a Turkic beard. He could still laugh heartily in a difficult situation, and asked, "The word you mentioned, food?"

"Food, they came from the western expedition, built strongholds one by one, how much food can an army carry out to fight and plunder, and sent troops to snatch and destroy the remaining food."

Compared with the chiefs of the Siberian Khanate, there are too many theoretical and practical experiences of worshiping the strong walls and clearing the fields.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was eloquent: "This is a national war, not revenge. If Yermak is killed, other troops will come. Yermak is only a few hundred people. He is in the city of Isker. The people in a radius of hundreds of miles were moved away, the farmland was destroyed, and the villages and pastures were set on fire."

"He used the river to transport luggage and built a dam on the river. If they had a stronghold, he would fortify the wall and clear a stronghold, starving them to death and trapping them to death."

In fact, burning grasslands and destroying fields to create no-man's land were the methods used by the Ming frontier army to deal with the northern captives. After a long period of practice, they had already become a set of effective tactics.

But for the Siberian Khanate, it was too new.

It's just that fresh is fresh, no one has such determination, and neither does the leader of Karacha.

He shook his head slowly and said: "That is our land... Tell me about you, Da Ming, they destroyed Da Yuan, and now you are loyal to Da Ming, the Golden Family has been conquered in the east?"

This is a really tricky question.

Qiao Bai shook his head and said, "I don't know what to say, it's very, very complicated."

He has a special status, not to mention that he is not from the Golden family. If Chechen Khan from the Golden Kingdom can answer this question...forget it.

Gubai thought about it: If the chief Karaqia asked Chechen Khan, who commanded [-] armored cavalry, whether he was conquered by Ming Dynasty.

Chechen Khan may not be able to answer, but he can conquer Karacha first.

The Chechen Khan of Jin Kingdom is Chechen, which means smart and wise in Mongolian.

In the end, Qiaobai pointed to the milk tea held in the palm of Chief Karacha, and said, "The mare's milk belongs to me, and the tea belongs to the emperor. Together, it tastes better than mare's milk and is sweeter than tea."

"The emperor handed over the authority to the generals. The warriors of the Mongolian tribes participated in the expedition under the banner of the dragon. The Mongolian tribes followed the general in order to get a bigger pasture. That's why I can see you."

The leader of Karacha laughed when he heard this, raised his head and drank all the milk tea in the cup, carefully put down the porcelain cup that he worshiped, and then said with a smile that had not yet restrained: "Then why do you want to participate in this Siberian war?" What about the war?"

"We have nothing but mare's milk. You already have mare's milk and tea. What can we do for you? Like the Tsar, who wants us to submit to the emperor?"

Xiaobai shook his head, and also spread his hands and smiled.

"I don't know either. It's not something I have the final say on. No matter what it is, you and I are in the middle, and you can't control it. But you can clean up the thieves in the west first, and then you can talk to Marshal Qi."

"At least I know that the emperor of Ming Dynasty is not as greedy as the local rich lords in the west."
