In the courtyard, Duduo looked at Dorgon and asked in a low voice: "Brother, you and Lin Pingan are sworn brothers, what about me?"
"Of course you are also sworn in."
Dorgon replied without thinking: "By the way, there is also Azig, we have sworn sworn vows together on his behalf."
"But will Azig agree?"
Duduo said with some worry.
"If he doesn't agree, then let's discuss it ourselves."
Dorgon said nonchalantly.
After a while, Lin Pingan came out with a watch in his hand.
This watch was worn on his wrist when he traveled through time, and was later placed in a small box. It was the only gift he felt he could get at the moment.
"Dorgon, this is for you."
As he spoke, he handed the watch to Dorgon.
"What is this?"
Dorgon and Dodo's heads came together at the same time, and then they raised their heads together and asked.
"This is a watch, used to record time."
Lin Pingan pointed to the dial in his hand and explained: "There are twelve numbers here, and each number represents half an hour. For example, between 11 and 1, it represents half an hour, and between 1 and 3, It represents the ugly hour, and by analogy, it is what you call the twelve hours."
Dorgon and Duoduo looked at the Arabic numerals pointed by Lin Ping'an, a little confused. Even Dayu'er on the side looked puzzled, obviously confused.
In fact, Arabic numerals were introduced to China in the middle and late Ming Dynasty. In 1601, the missionary Matteo Ricci presented tributes such as the self-ringing bell and the Illustration of All Nations to Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty. Arabic numerals were already included in them, but they were not used in China. Just spread it.
As foreigners, Dorgon and the other three were naturally unheard of.
"But sir, if every two numbers represents half an hour, then there are only twelve numbers in total, which means there are only six hours."
Dayu'er was very smart and raised his doubts after a moment.
"This watch will make two revolutions every day, one of which represents half a day, and the two revolutions are exactly twelve hours."
Lin Pingan explained patiently, Dorgon and Duoduo looked at each other and shook their heads.
Da Yu'er blinked and thought carefully. After a moment, he clapped his hands and shouted: "I understand, this thing is much more accurate than an hourglass."
Lin Ping'an nodded, not bothering to explain the concept of minutes and seconds anymore, and directly put the watch into Dorgon's hand.
"Lin Pingan, where did this thing come from?"
Dodo asked.
"It was given to me by an old man in the mountains..."
Before Lin Ping'an finished speaking, Batu on the side exclaimed: "The God of Medicine must be Lord Medicine God!"
"The god of medicine?"
Dorgon and the other three exclaimed, looking at each other with disbelief in their eyes.
Batu nodded and said seriously:
"The old man Lin Pingan said must be the legendary God of Medicine. Even the blood transfusion method was taught to Lin Pingan by him."
Hearing this, everyone turned to look at Lin Pingan.
Lin Ping'an nodded. He figured it out automatically, which saved him a lot of trouble.
"Lin Pingan, did you really give me such a precious thing?"
Dorgon held the watch in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, and asked with a look of surprise.
"of course."
Lin Ping'an said with great certainty: "You gave me the birthday gift the Great Khan gave you, so naturally I should give you the gift the God of Medicine gave me."
Dorgon nodded repeatedly and carefully put the watch into his arms, seeing the envy on Dodo's face.
Lin Ping'an had no incense at home, so he could only take out a few candles and insert them into the soil. Batu took out the jug at his waist and poured a bowl of wine. Then Lin Ping'an and the other three pricked their fingers and dripped a few drops of blood into the soil. into the wine bowl.
Then the three of them knelt down and kowtowed and swore an oath.
“I don’t want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but I want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day!”
While talking, the three and a half-year-old boys drank a bowl of blood wine.
"Brother!"
The two Dorgon brothers shouted to Lin Pingan.
Should I call them Adi? Lin Pingan opened his mouth, feeling a little awkward.
Dayu'er on the side covered her mouth and smiled softly: "Brother and brother are so ugly, they are not as bold and catchy as our Mongolian Anda."
Upon hearing this, Lin Ping'an nodded repeatedly, stretched out his hand to grab Dorgon and Duoduo, and shouted: "An Da!"
"An Da!"
"An Da!"
The voices of Dorgon and Duoduo rang out in the small courtyard, and the three hands were tightly pulled together!
Lin Wan'er looked at this scene in surprise and asked softly: "Sister, what are they doing?"
Dayu'er pinched Lin Wan'er's little face and said with a smile: "From now on, you have two more brothers."
.
Shengjing Palace, Dazheng Palace!
Sunlight shines through the yellow glazed tiles on the top of the hall, giving the hall a light yellow halo. The flying dragon on the dragon column looks up at the eight powerful men with the phase wheel orb on the top of the hall, solemn and solemn.
Nurhaci looked at everyone and sighed:
"Although this battle was a complete victory, it was not able to go deep and last, which is really a pity."
Everyone in the hall was silent after hearing this.
In fact, everyone knows that Hou Jin's foundation is unstable and it faces many enemies. In addition to the giant Ming Dynasty, the various Mongolian ministries behind it are eyeing it. The Kingdom of Koryo is even more ready to move, ready to give Hou Jin a blow at any time.
The most terrible thing is that Mao Wenlong, who was stationed in Pi Island during the Ming Dynasty, was staring at Hou Jin's belly and back like a hungry wolf. Once he had an opportunity, he would definitely wait for an opportunity to pounce.
Therefore, ever since Nurhachi announced the Seven Great Hatreds and used troops against the Ming Dynasty, he has never dared to go deep into the Ming Dynasty boldly and maintain it for too long.
But this is already an old problem, and it’s still an old problem with no solution.
Huang Taiji thought for a while and stepped forward and said: "Father Khan, don't worry. This battle has defeated the Ming army. It has overwhelmed the opponent in terms of momentum, inspired our soldiers, and gained a lot. As for Father Khan's worries, we still need to Think long term.”
Nurhaci nodded, looked at a young man standing aside, and asked gently: "Mr. Fan, what do you suggest?"
