In the slightly empty palace, the emperor's clear voice echoed around, ringing clearly in everyone's ears.
Although he had vaguely expected it in his heart, Yang Hong's expression changed after hearing this, and his body trembled slightly.
Obviously, this veteran of many battles was in a very uneasy mood at this time.
Zhu Qiyu obviously saw Yang Hong's mood at the moment, so he continued.
"However, the good news is that Yang Jie was not kidnapped by Bodu, but chose to go to the Torgut tribe on his own!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the ministers present became extremely exciting.
Just now the emperor said that Yang Jie was being detained. They subconsciously felt that Yang Jie was accidentally caught by Bodu.
Although Bodu and Yang Jie have never met in the capital, it is conceivable that as the son of Yang Hong, who has guarded Xuanfu for many years and made the Mongolian tribes frightened, once Yang Jie's identity is exposed, his The situation will definitely not be good.
But now, the emperor said, he actually surrendered himself?
All the ministers immediately looked at Yang Hong, but found that he also looked shocked.
However, the effect of this sentence is still obvious. At least, Yang Hong's mood has become a bit more stable than before. Although there is still unconcealable worry in his expression, at least he is not so excited.
After hesitating for a moment, Yang Hong cupped his hands and said.
"Your Majesty, if you dare me, could you take a look at this military report?"
The emperor nodded, not wanting to hide anything. He handed the report on the imperial case to the chamberlain, and then sent it to Yang Hong.
"Your Majesty, please wait..."
It should be said that most of the ministers present had seen strong winds and waves, but what happened to Yang Jie was really beyond their expectations. Moreover, the emperor's words just now really aroused their curiosity.
Therefore, watching Yang Hong get the report, several elders rubbed their hands and looked at the emperor expectantly.
Zhu Qiyu didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
As a result, several ministers present immediately gathered around Yang Hong, stretched their necks and began to look inside.
However, at this glance, they couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The further they looked back, the weirder their expressions became. They looked up at Yang Hong, whose expression was unclear. For a long time, these people looked at each other and sighed in unison.
“It’s true that there are talented people from generation to generation!
"Yang Hou has a good son..."
"This Yang Jie is really brave..."
Following a burst of admiration, Yang Hong finally raised his head, but his expression was extremely complicated.
There was worry, relief, anger, and pride. Even vaguely, there was a glimmer of water in the eyes of this veteran.
Later, the chamberlain took back the secret memorial from Yang Hong and put it back on the imperial desk, Zhu Qiyu said.
"Yang Jie really lived up to the reputation of the Yang family. He stirred up the grassland situation with one person's power. He lives up to his name and is a hero of the court!"
Like all the ministers below, Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but sigh after reading the report.
He had long known that Yang Jie was determined and capable, and that he always had the ambition to make great achievements in his heart. However, he was limited by his weak body, so he had to be trapped in this small world in the capital.
However, even though Zhu Qiyu had estimated Yang Jie's ability as highly as possible, he never expected that Yang Jie would do so many things that shocked the court once he was released.
This time, Yang Jie was sent as an envoy under a secret order. The imperial court expected that it would disrupt the situation in the grassland and maintain the balance between Oara and Tatar.
As for the specific method, it fell on the Tatar Jinong Agadorji.
Agadorji is the younger brother of Totuobuhua. He is also the deputy khan of Tatar. He holds great power. After the war between Tatar and Oara, he directly controlled one-third of Tatar. of military strength.
The best result of Yang Jie's departure is to win over the Tatar Jinong Agadorji, incite him to betray Totuo Buhua, switch sides, and kill Totuo Buhua when both Oara and the Tatars are losing. , established himself as king and completely disrupted the Tatar interior.
You know, although the Mongolian tribes believe that the strong is king, after hundreds of years of sinicization throughout the Yuan Dynasty, many grassland tribes have long been subtly influenced by the ethics and morals of the Central Plains.
As a descendant of the Golden Family and the co-owner of the grassland that all tribes believe in, Totuobuhua would inevitably cause civil strife in the Tatars if Agadorji killed him.
Of course, even if there is civil strife, with Agadoerji's many years of management, he can still secure his position in the end.
As for the cost, of course, it is the long-term internal strife among the tribes. At least for decades, it will be impossible to form a large-scale force to invade the Ming Dynasty south.
To put it bluntly, this is asking Agadolji to make a choice between his own interests and the interests of Tatars.
As for the result, it has been proven in previous lives!
Although Aga Dorji and Totuo Buhua are brothers, he has long been disobedient. However, in his previous life, Wala was not defeated at Zijingguan, nor was he killed by Guo Deng. Arm, so Wala's strength is quite strong.
Although Aga Dorji betrayed Totuo Buhua in the end, more than a year later, he was trapped and killed by Ye Xian. His son was killed while fleeing, leaving behind a posthumous son. This posthumous son would later become famous Dayan Khan's father.
In this life, the situation in the grassland has changed drastically. With the help of the Ming Dynasty, Tuo Tuo Bu Hua's power has become stronger than in the previous life. However, Wala's strength has weakened instead. There is a huge disparity in strength. However, Aga Dorji's character It won't change.
Therefore, as long as Yang Jie can clearly state his interests and the power given to him by Zhu Qiyu to act expediently, it will not be a problem to instigate Agadolji and Totu Bohua brothers to turn against each other.
Of course, if it is difficult for them to kill each other, then they can also be lured to gain. It would also be good if they could be persuaded to leave the Tatars and join the Ming Dynasty, forming a situation in which they could get along with each other and stand on three sides.
It can be said that Yang Jie has passed if he can achieve the latter. If he can achieve the former, then it will exceed Zhu Qiyu's expectations.
But, again, this time, Yang Jie gave people too many surprises.
First, under the guidance of a businessman disguised as a Jin Yiwei, he found the Chahar tribe under the leadership of Agadorji, and wanted to meet Agadorji through the introduction of the Mongolian nobles.
However, on the way to the Chahar tribe, Yang Jie passed many small and medium-sized tribes. During his interactions with them, Yang Jie was keenly aware of a fact.
That is, the interior of Tatar is far less strong and united than it appears on the surface.
On the one hand, relying on the Ming Dynasty's openness to mutual trade, the five major tribes and the powerful Khan Court reaped all the benefits, which aroused the dissatisfaction of many small and medium-sized tribes.
You must know that this time the Ming Dynasty opened up the mutual market, it adopted a completely different strategy from the past. It was escorted by the border army, hosted by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the imperial store took care of the specific matters.
This results in that there is basically no room for negotiation during the transaction process.
Under Zhu Qiyu's personal intervention, all kinds of materials sold by the imperial store have been carefully calculated and stuck at the highest point acceptable to the Mongolian tribe.
In addition, the eunuch in charge of the imperial store specifically sought out Shen Yi for many lessons, kidnapped several scribes who were highly skilled in accounting, and creatively invented two price systems, light and dark.
For the five major tribes who come to trade, the large quantities of materials are priced at the official price, but secretly, he will sell a small amount of valuable materials at a low price of 70%.
Although it was a small amount, it was a good opportunity for the tribe and the nobles who came to trade to make a lot of money.
Since Yang Jie is on a mission, he naturally has a deep understanding of various situations in the mutual market.
So, he discovered that after these nobles brought the materials back, they would sell them to small and medium-sized tribes at higher prices.
In fact, most "smugglers" are in contact with small and medium-sized tribes. However, smuggling is smuggling after all, the channels are not stable, and the supplies are not comprehensive.
Therefore, all small and medium-sized tribes still have to rely on the five major tribes.
However, in order to pass on the pressure, the five major tribes sold it at a very high price, which caused various small and medium-sized tribes to complain, and then began to resent Tuotuo Buhua as the Great Khan.
It is no exaggeration to say that in less than two years since the mutual trade began, the conflicts between the various small and medium-sized tribes and the five major tribes have rapidly intensified.
But on the other hand, the five major tribes that control supplies have expanded rapidly, and have gradually begun to have a tendency to become too big to lose.
Tuo Tuo Bu Hua, however, was still intoxicated in the dream that the Tatars were getting stronger day by day, and brazenly launched an attack on Oara.
To put it bluntly, today's Tatars are already suffering from internal and external troubles.
The glory of the Golden Family is still there, but the control over various tribes is no longer what it used to be.
So, after careful (?) consideration, a crazy idea came to Yang Jie's mind.
He wanted to put Totu Buhua and Agadolji, the two remaining adult heirs of the golden family, in one pot!
This is very difficult, but once it is done, the entire grassland will surely fall into chaos. Unless another new Genghis Khan appears, I am afraid that the war on the grassland will not subside within a hundred years.
After this idea came up, Yang Jie could no longer suppress it.
So, he decisively changed his mind and transferred to the Haraqin Tribe and the Wengliguote Tribe, whose strength was second only to the five major tribes.
Under the temptation of separate trade, Yang Jie successfully persuaded Bolai, the leader of the Kalaqin tribe, and Maolihai, the leader of the Wengliguote tribe.
Subsequently, with the help of the two of them, he found Aga Dorji. According to the original plan, he still used the power of mutual trading and the recognition of canonization by the Ming Dynasty to convince Agadoroji to raid Tuotuobu at the critical moment. flower.
It should be said that this move greatly exceeded Totu Buhua's expectations. He was unprepared and fled in a hurry with only hundreds of his guards. In the end, he was killed by his leader Shabutan in the Gorros tribe.
A generation of grassland co-owners died with hatred!
Zhu Qiyu's eyes fell on the closely spaced dates. He counted the days and found that it was exactly a month ago.
This month, the grassland may be turbulent.
After the raid on Totuobuhua, Agadoerji immediately withdrew his troops and returned to the royal court. He declared himself Khan to the five major tribes and vowed that he had received the support of the Ming Dynasty and could continue to expand the Tatar and Ming Dynasty. Mutual market transactions.
However, just when he was about to invite the Ming Dynasty's envoy to prove that what he said was true, he discovered that Yang Jie had disappeared!
At this time, Bolai, the leader of the Karaqin tribe, and Maolihai, the leader of the Wengliguote tribe, took the opportunity to raise troops and attacked and killed Agadoerji on the charge of murdering the Khan.
However, what coincidentally was that after they killed Aga Dorji and then turned back to look for Yang Jie, they also found that they could not find him either.
In desperation, the two of them each supported Totu Buhua's eldest son Togu Simengke and their youngest son Marco Gurgis as Khan.
What's even more dramatic is that after the two of them attacked and killed Agadoerji, the five major tribes that were originally united also fell apart.
The Chahar tribe took the opportunity to support Agadolji's son Harguchuktaiji as Khan.
The Ordos Tribe and the Asu Tribe, who are die-hard tribes of Totu Tobuhua, are targeting the Gorros Tribe for directly killing Totu Tobuhua, while the other is fighting against Chaha, who is treacherous and supports Chuktaji. Your tribe is at odds with each other.
It can be said that Yang Jie's move actually caused Tatar to completely fall apart and turn into a mess.
At this time, Yang Jie, who could not be found by anyone, was escorted by the Turgut tribe, one of the five major tribes, to the Turgut tribe controlled by Bodu!
Yes, even now, Zhu Qiyu already knew the ins and outs of this matter, and when he saw Yang Jie's plan, he still felt frightened.
He first deceived the Kalaqin Tribe and the Wengliguote Tribe, telling them that Aga Dorji was disloyal to Totuo Buhua, and as long as they were willing to "set things right" after Aghador Ji took action, he would Just like Yexian, they can set up a puppet khan. At the same time, Daming will help them control the grassland and become the new overlord of the grassland.
Later, he bewitched Aga Dorji, and also used the temptation of Khan's position and the support of Ming Dynasty to successfully make him betray Totuo Buhua.
After that, he first escaped from the control of Aga Dorji with the help of the Kalaqin Tribe and the Wengliguot Tribe, and then unexpectedly escaped from the Kalaqin with the help of the Tumut Tribe. The palms of the Ministry and the Ministry of Ongli Gote.
It should be said that at this point, Yang Jie's plan has been more than half successful.
Yes, that’s only half of it!
This is the most frightening thing. What he has to do is not over yet!
This is the end of the secret memorial.
In other words, it was over for all the officials present.
Zhu Qiyu has more complete content, but there are some things in it that are not suitable for publication.
However, even based on what they saw now, they could deduce that Yang Jie still had unfinished business.
On the grassland, Oara and Tatar were originally at odds with each other. Now, although Oara's vitality has been severely damaged, the foundation is still there.
Under Yang Jie's operation, the Tatar Khan Totuobuhua and the deputy Khan Agadoerji died one after another. The major tribes in the Tatars went their own way and lost the threat.
So, what about Wala?
Yang Jie didn't say anything, but his actions said everything.
The expressions of all the ministers present were complicated. After a moment, Yu Shiyue finally spoke up and asked.
"Your Majesty, Governor Yang Zhen said in his secret report that he took the initiative to surrender to Bodu. Could it be said that this time his goal is..."
This chapter was so painful to write~ It’s all because I didn’t prepare the outline well. Yang Jie’s wonderful experience can only be summed up in one stroke_(:3⌒)_
