The Golden Horde that the old woman said was the Kipchak Khanate.

It is indeed as Zhu Di thought, if it were not a tribe attached to the Kipchak Khanate, how could it appear here.

The old woman spoke clearly and clearly, not like an ordinary old man at all.

The old woman’s name is Zhanlan. After a conversation with the old woman,

Zhu Di roughly sorted out what was going on.

In the thirteenth year of Hongwu,

Grand Duke Donskoy of Moscow could not bear the exploitation of the Muscovite Principality by the Kipchak Khanate.

resolutely launched a war,

During the war, the Grand Duke of Moscow directly defeated the then suzerain state, the Kipchak Khanate.

The Kipchak Khanate split in World War I, and was later integrated by the White Khan faction's Tuotuo. After a power struggle, they re-suppressed the Muscovite Principality.

Within the Kipchak Khanate, there were many factions and constant internal troubles.

Tuotuo then considered mobilizing troops against the Timur Empire to divert attention.

However, Tuotuo never expected that this inconspicuous neighboring country next to him could be so powerful!

The Kipchak Khanate was immediately broken up again. In addition, the Ming Dynasty swept across the grassland and fled back to the Mongolians in the Kipchak Khanate.

Now the Kipchak Khanate is in chaos.

The old woman's tribe is just a swaying leaf in the great era. It has no choice but to go south.

That's what happened today.

There was silence in the yurt, except for the children carefully drinking milk tea and the crackling of the stove, there was no other sound.

Zhu Di fell into deep thought,

What he didn't expect was that Timur's empire was so powerful.

Fighting the Kipchak Khanate was like fighting a dog.

According to Zhu Di's estimation, the combat effectiveness of the surrounding neighboring countries should be,

Ming Dynasty>>Timurid Empire=Kipchak Khanate>>Northern Yuan Dynasty,

But judging from the old woman’s narration,

The Timurid Empire swept across the Kipchak Khanate,

Even if its combat effectiveness is slightly different from that of Ming Dynasty, it won't be too different.

The people of Timur's empire have already adapted to the severe cold weather, but the Ming army cannot adapt.

If the Ming army is put here, the cold climate will greatly reduce the Ming army's combat effectiveness!

Although it seems now,

The Timurid Empire was very Buddhist, and the war with the Kipchak Khanate was also a legitimate defense.

but,

Zhu Di didn't believe this. If Timur's empire was really Buddhist, how could it have such a strong combat effectiveness?

He was obviously waiting for an opportunity.

As for the Ming Dynasty, which borders its border, how can the two countries coexist peacefully?

Zhu Di's eyes flashed slightly and he looked at the old woman named Zhan Lan.

smiled and said,

"Grandma, just take the tribe and take root here.

I'll draw a place for you, and you can just graze for me.

Before winter comes, I will take you to the warmer Central Plains area.

How about it? "

After hearing this, the old woman froze on the spot.

They originally thought of escaping from the control of the Kipchak Khanate first, but the way forward was unclear.

And Zhu Di's words were equivalent to giving this tribe a new life.

It is unimaginable that before this, this tribe had robbed the horses that Zhu Di wanted to go to Beijing.

Zhu Di's movements were filled with the aura of a king.

Grandma Zhanlan pulled out the dagger tied to her leg. Zhu Di's eyes flashed but he didn't react.

Grandma Zhanlan cut the palm of her hand with a dagger, then pressed it on her forehead, and then pressed her forehead against Zhu Di's boots.

After smelling the smell of blood in the tent, the young men of the tribe stood up suddenly and rushed in.

After seeing their grandmother's actions, the eyes of these young adults turned to determination.

They also followed suit, cutting their palms open, pressing blood on their heads, and then pressing their foreheads against Zhu Di's boots.

Zhang Yu, who followed closely, was dumbfounded.

Even though he had lived on the grassland for five years, he had never seen such a ceremony.

Just the solemn feeling that hits my face,

Just know,

This is a blood oath,

And it is unknown what the price will be for breaking the oath.

After all the young men of the tribe pledged their allegiance to Zhu Di,

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Yu and said,

“Give them some cattle and sheep and let them graze them.

By the way, get some woolen robes for them to wear. Will they freeze to death if this continues? "

Zhang Yu nodded and led these barbarians who did not understand etiquette out of the military tent.

Zhu Di didn't take it seriously and just treated it as a good deed.

Grandma Zhanlan saw Zhu Di looking sad and was about to leave with the children.

Zhu Di shook his head,

Said in Mongolian,

"Grandma, let the children stay here, it's warm here.

Look at these children, they are so cold that their faces are purple. "

Grandma Zhanlan sat back obediently.

Zhu Di held his forehead and sat back on the chair.

He doesn't know,

Just how powerful Timurid's empire was can only be guessed.

But in official history,

The Timurid Empire and the Ming Dynasty of the Yongle Dynasty were respectively the eastern and western overlords on this continent.

The Timurid Empire swept across the Golden Horde, the Ottoman Empire was at its peak, and the Mamluks, known as having the strongest cavalry,

As for the Chagatai Khanate and the Ili Khanate, they were wiped out casually.

One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

The southern continent is the strongest and the northern continent is the strongest, and the borders are already connected.

If a war breaks out, it will definitely be the most dangerous battle!

Zhu Di used hot water to boil the inkstone that had been frozen into ice cubes, and started writing with his brush.

"Eldest nephew..."

...........

"Mom! I'm finally back in Beijing!

This trip is so frustrating for me! "

Lan Yu knelt down in front of the city gate and screamed strangely,

The rest of the group was also very eye-catching.

Seeing these weirdos, the soldiers from the Governor's Department quickly surrounded them.

After seeing clearly that it was sapphire,

The leading soldier captain exclaimed,

"General Blue?!"

Lan Yu stood up and nodded,

"Why don't you give way? You're delaying me from meeting the hero!"

"Alas!"

Lan Yu was about to enter the city in a hurry. At this time, an even bigger figure approached Lan Yu.

"Wait a minute, I haven't seen my eldest nephew for a long time. I'll go with him."

Lan Yu frowned and said dissatisfied,

"Your Highness, the imperial edict requires you to go directly north. Why are you following us back to Beijing?"

The second eldest brother, Zhu Xi, took off his hood and grinned in amusement.

"Don't I miss my eldest nephew?!"

Lan Yu said helplessly,

"Okay, you can come into the palace with me."

At this time, in Fengtian Hall,

Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu are studying the Ming Law.

A strange scream suddenly exploded,

"Dad! Great nephew!

I, Zhu Laoer, am back! "

Zhu Xiongying raised his head and looked at his second uncle,

She looks very cute with her mouth wide open in a silly way.

And Zhu Yuanzhang, like a conditioned reflex, bent down and took off his shoes.

He rushed towards Zhu Laoer,

He cursed angrily,

"I asked you to go north, why are you going to Beijing privately?!

Damn it!

I'll beat you to death! ! ! "
