You must know that since the death of the Tatar Sanniang, although Lin Dan Khan has been shining for a while, in the end he was still unable to defeat the talented Huang Taiji. He died ten years ago. Two years later, his son led sixteen tribes to conquer the Qing Dynasty and North Korea. It has been nine years since we became its subsidiary.
Speaking of which, the Tatars did not want to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. They originally wanted to join forces with the Ming Dynasty to fight against it. The previous Sanniang was very close to the Ming Dynasty because she got a lot of benefits from the Sino-Mongolian trade. However, after her death, the Tatars were immediately in disarray. Shang Daming had no time to take care of himself, and he was as helpless towards him as he was towards North Korea. He watched helplessly as they were dealt with by the Manchus.
But the Manchus and Qing Dynasties were also very funny. When they were packing up the Tatars, they threatened the Ming court not to trade with the Mongols to provide them with supplies, otherwise they would attack Xuanda! The Ming Dynasty was also on tenterhooks at that time. The market was sometimes open and sometimes closed. The Tatars, who were already living a hard life, were even more miserable now. Their supplies were shockingly poor, and the only way they could get supplies was from the Manchus. Reward, what kind of reward should be used? Intercept the trade between Ming Dynasty and North Korea to reward. The poor Tatar tribe can only rely on this reward to hang their lives, and they can only surrender to him in the end.
After the Tatars surrendered, the Manchus could concentrate on dealing with the Ming Dynasty. At this time, they were behind the scenes to support the trade between the Tatars and the Ming Dynasty because they needed to get military supplies from the Ming Dynasty! So in the current Sino-Mongolian trade, most of the prohibited items and materials ended up in the hands of the Manchus, and their largest traders were the Manchu imperial merchants in history!
The reason why the Ming Dynasty knew that they still traded with each other was because they had no choice but to do so. First of all, we also have needs, such as mules, horses and sheep, furs, ginseng and medicinal materials. Furthermore, the Ming Dynasty still had some illusions about Tatar just like North Korea. After all, the enemy of the enemy Are they just friends? I hope we can join forces one day.
But there is one fact that cannot be changed. Although the market in the Yuanbaoshan area outside the Great Wall is clearly a Tatar territory, it is actually controlled by the Manchu and Qing Tatars. Firstly, they trade the military supplies they need. Secondly, they are here. The intelligence base area, a large number of agents were sent from here to the pass to Xuanfu, Datong, Taiyuan and even the capital to collect intelligence.
Yuanbaoshan is a market on the surface, but secretly it is the information center of the Tatars!
The Tatars knew this fact, and Ming also knew it, but they were helpless because it was someone else's territory.
But Chang Yu is going to change all this now. Although he can't take back the hundreds of miles of land outside the Great Wall now, he must control the palm-sized place in front of his home. No one can do it! You send them to kill one by one. On the surface, business is going on as usual, but as soon as I find a Tatar, I will kill them until you dare not take a step. If you don't accept it, you send troops to attack me!
"After the cleaning, everyone except the hidden spies immediately withdrew, and then the market was closed to allow the caravans stranded outside to come back."
"Is the Governor also worried about Tatar revenge?" Zhang Yang was actually worried about this the most. The Tatars would take away the territory that they had managed for more than ten years at will.
"With their current strength, they may not dare to retaliate!" Chang Yu sneered: "Yuanbao Mountain is right at our doorstep. You can go and masturbate at any time, but they are thousands of miles away. There are too few people to be useful, and there are too many people and insufficient logistics. We are just waiting for work. Why? I play with them all the time, and besides, they are afraid of making us anxious and we will close the market immediately!"
"Let go and do it." Chang Yu looked up at the night sky, with snowflakes flying all over the sky. Although he could not regain the lost ground at this time, he had to use another way to control these areas.
If you can't do it clearly, then do it darkly!
It was already past two o'clock in the morning. The doorway of the West Gate was opened, and hundreds of people in black filed out. Fortunately, the heavy snowfall could quickly cover up their tracks, otherwise they would have to work hard to climb over the wall. Chang Yu looked at the people standing in Laiyuan Fort. At the north gate, I watched all the men in black disappear and the city gate closed before I got on my horse and left slowly.
Outside a high-end inn a few miles to the south, a waiter grabbed a man with a mustache by his collar and threw him out: "Eating and staying at the hotel cost money. If you want to blow snow, just blow it outside the door. There is no Ximen here. Only come to Yuanmen and Yongshunmen."
Li Xingtian got up from the snow and patted himself: "Isn't the West Gate the West Gate?"
"Then you go and go to Chuixue!" The waiter cursed angrily, turned around and was about to leave, but saw a few horses approaching: "Why, my reputation as Ximen Chuixue is not good enough?"
"Oh, brother Ximen, you... are not working at all. Are you fooling my brother?" Li Xingtian turned his head when he heard the sound and saw Chang Yu rushing over: "Fortunately it is late at night, if it is white. It’s such a shame.”
"Maybe this guy is new here and doesn't know me." Chang Yu flicked his finger, and a piece of broken silver fell in front of the guy: "Let me ask you again, do I, Ximen Chuixue, have a good reputation?"
"It's good, it's good, it must be good." The man said cheerfully, picked up the silver, bit it, and put it in his arms.
"It's good to serve you well," Chang Yu said, winking at Li Xingtian, then turning the horse's head and leaving. Li Xingtian hurriedly chased after him: "Brother Ximen, where are you going? Let's have a drink together when we have time. …”
Chang Yu ignored him, slapped his horse and ran away. Li Xingtian chased him for dozens of steps before stopping. Why did this little guy's whole temperament change after entering the pass?
On a windy and snowy night, most people huddled in their beds and fell asleep, unaware that a massacre was taking place outside the Great Wall at the foot of Yuanbao Mountain.
Before dawn, the wind became stronger, the snow became more intense, and it was the coldest, as cold as a knife.
At this moment, more than ten men in black suddenly appeared on the street. At first, they did not attract the attention of the caravan sleeping on the street. They first went to some casinos, inns and other places, and soon hundreds of people suddenly poured into Yuanbaoshan. In the market, under the leadership of some people, they directly broke into the doors everywhere, and then the killings broke out.
The sound of killings kept rising and falling, and the entire Yuanbaoshan Market fell silent in terror. Many people didn't know what was going on, but they didn't dare to run away. Fortunately, those people didn't plunder the caravan's goods, they just killed people with purpose. .
After half an hour passed, the sound of killing gradually died down, and then someone saw hundreds of soldiers marching toward the village in the mountains.
Who is this? Who did they kill?
After daybreak, the wind and snow continued. People were horrified to find that nearly a hundred people died at the market in Guangyuanbaoshan last night, including rat-tailed Mongolians. Later, they heard that many people died in nearby villages. people.
Who did it?
I don’t know, some people guess it’s bandits. There are more than a hundred miles of vast mountains between Yuanbao Mountain and the grassland. There are indeed bandits along the way, but they never come here to kill people and loot, and they don’t loot anything either. .
Could it be the Ming army? After all, most of the dead were Tatars.
But it's impossible. This is Tatar territory and is controlled by the Tatars. The Ming army has never done this in so many years, and they will not do it easily, because a mistake will trigger a war between the two countries.
There is only one possibility, gang fight!
People are talking about it, but no one can say it clearly. The most convincing theory is that when the gangs are fighting, other forces take advantage of the troubled waters. It cannot be ruled out that Ming army spies are involved...
No one knows where those people came from, just like they don’t know where they went.
But soon another news came, the West Gate was opened.
But it only clears customs and does not open the market. Those who enter can bring goods in, but those who come out are absolutely not allowed to bring goods, whether it is prohibited or not!
Many people were stranded for several days and returned as soon as they could. Yuanbaoshan was a bit evil in the past two days. So many people died suddenly. You can imagine what happened next. This is a place of right and wrong and you should leave as soon as possible...
The Yuanbaoshan tragedy seemed to have grown wings. By noon, it had spread throughout Zhangjiakou, and then flew to Xuanfu.
After Li Xingtian in the Star Inn heard the news, he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses: "Ximen... what he was blowing was not cows, nor snow, but blood!"
When Shi Kefa, who was handling military affairs in Zhangjiakou, heard the news, he shouted something bad and hurried to Fan Mansion to find Chang Yu. Such a big thing happened in Yuanbaoshan, and the Tatars would definitely take bloody revenge. Dirty water was poured on the Ming army...
But he was only halfway there when he suddenly looked stunned, then shook his head with a wry smile!
The little eunuch went to Laiyuan Castle and disappeared for a day. Then such a big thing happened. There is no doubt that he must have done it. This eunuch has no interest in anything else. He loves to fight and kill the most, and only he has that. Such courage and generosity!
I really don’t know if he is here to make peace or to cause trouble!
