Zhu Youxiao knew a little bit about Hu Dawei's personality. He had a straightforward personality and didn't have so much money and scheming.
Otherwise, Lu Xiangsheng in history would not have asked him to follow him on the expedition. His character and ability should be reliable.
"Hu Dawei, you are not to blame for what happened today. This is your first visit to the palace. I will not blame you this time. Please be careful in the future!"
Hu Daweilian breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed and said:
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Since you were originally from the Tumut tribe, you must know a lot about it. Tell me everything you know. If you can't speak it, you can express it in Mongolian. I also know a little bit about Mongolian! "
After Zhu Youxiao came back from the Northern Expedition, he deliberately took some time to learn Mongolian. Mongolian is a must. If he doesn't even know Mongolian, how can he conquer the grassland in the future?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hu Dawei thanked him and then kowtowed and said:
"The Tumut tribe seems to be a large tribe, but there are great grievances and conflicts among the tribes, and they have even attacked each other many times. However, the leader of the Tumut tribe cannot solve the problem. This is also the tribal affiliation of Chen and Chen. The reason for Ming Dynasty.”
"The Tumut tribe is also the weakest in Mongolia. The Khalkha tribe in Mobei and the Chahar tribe in Monan have also been suppressed many times. Now the Tumut tribe is not having an easy life."
"The reason why they entered Koubian Town in large numbers this time was because they learned about the Emperor's personal expedition. They thought that all of Ming's attention was focused on the north, so they wanted to take advantage of Ming's expedition to plunder in the northwest."
This wishful thinking was a good one. This was indeed the best time to loot. Unfortunately, they were not strong enough. Before the news reached the capital, they had been defeated and fled.
"How many tribes are there in Tumut?"
Hu Dawei thought for a while and said:
"There should be about thirty of them, large and small, but they are not subordinate to each other. Even the leader sometimes can't do anything about it."
It seems that the situation of the Tumut tribe is even worse than that of the Chahar tribe. Lin Dan Khan at least still has authority and can use his name as the Great Mongolian Khan to command the Mongolian tribes in Monan.
Zhu Youxiao didn't feel any surprise about this. Mongolia was not very united to begin with, and internal strife was commonplace among them, because they were not a nation to begin with, but they were just integrated.
During the Liao, Jin and Song dynasties, Mongolia was still a small tribe, and their tribes were just slaves of other powerful tribes.
The nomadic peoples on the grassland have always been the same ones, and they all evolved from the nomadic peoples before the Donghu, Xianbei, Turks, etc.
It's just that Temujin came out of the grassland. After he unified the desert, he collectively called these tribes the Mongolian nation. From then on, there was the so-called Mongol Empire.
After Temujin unified the desert, he completely rewrote the history of the nomads. When these nomads were strong, they were naturally sharp knives.
But when they weaken, the conflicts between them will be infinitely aroused, and divisions will begin.
The first great split was during the heyday of the Mongol Empire. Due to the sudden death of Meng Ge, a civil war broke out in the grasslands between Kublai Khan and Alibaba, but just as they were competing for the position of Great Khan.
The other Mongol princes and Temujin's descendants who were outside did not participate. They only supported which side symbolically and verbally. In fact, they were secretly actively planning to become independent.
Kublai Khan wanted to be the Khan at that time, so he naturally had no time to care about what they were doing. After Kublai Khan defeated Ali Buge and took the Khanship, the Mongol Empire was officially split into the five khanates. (Kublai Khan’s branch is also included)
After Kublai Khan established the Yuan Dynasty, his brothers didn't look down on him at all. They didn't even admit it to the Yuan Dynasty. They all said that they were the Great Khan of the Mongol Empire. This made Kublai Khan extremely embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do about it. , the strength of the four great khanates was no worse than his, and he had to swallow his breath in pain.
During the Hongwu period, Lan Yu completely wiped out the remaining forces of the Yuan Dynasty in the Battle of Yuerhai, and Mongolia ushered in the second great division.
The two major tribes of Tatar and Oara were born from this. In addition to these two major tribes, there are also some weaker tribes such as Arutai.
During the Yongle period, after Zhu Di's five northern expeditions, these tribes were beaten to death and their strength was greatly reduced again. Since then, the internal divisions in Mongolia have become more and more intense. As long as many tribes, large and small, feel that they are strong enough, they will immediately go out to go it alone. This situation continues to this day.
Hu Dawei pointed out all the weaknesses of the Tumote Department to Zhu Youxiao one by one, and pointed out the way for him.
After Zhu Youxiao heard this, he felt relieved. The Tumut tribe was just a mob and was not worth worrying about. If he wanted to regain the Hetao, he only needed an elite army and an envoy.
"Hu Dawei, who else is in your family?"
"His Majesty the Emperor, there is no one in my family anymore. A few years ago, my tribe fought with other tribes, and my whole family died tragically in that battle."
Looking at Hu Dawei's uncomfortable expression, he couldn't lie. Besides, there was no need for him to lie to himself.
"In that case, how about I give you a chance?"
"Don't stay in the northwest. Go to the Yulin Army and serve as Chief Qian. My Yulin Army is an elite army. Most people can't go there even if they want to!"
Zhu Youxiao smiled.
Hu Dawei had no reason to refuse and agreed on the spot. After all, he was the emperor's personal soldier. Who could resist this temptation.
Zhu Youxiao asked him to write a letter to Meng Ruhu again, and he issued another order to ask Meng Ruhu to come to the capital as soon as possible. After all, the two fierce tiger generals can only truly live up to their reputation if they are together.
After Hu Dawei left, Zhu Youxiao's expression instantly turned ugly.
"My companion, can you explain to me what this means?"
After Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, he did not forget to imitate. This frightened Wang Chaofu, and he knelt down with a pop:
"This slave deserves to die, this slave deserves to die. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I will deal with it immediately!"
Originally, asking for money was just a trivial matter, but this little eunuch was too blind. Could this guy be obsessed with money? Is this something he dares to accept?
You just accept it, but others find a way to frame you without giving it to you? What a stupid pig, Wang Chaofu could not wait to run over and skin this kid immediately.
Long Live Lord dares to offend the heroes he calls out by name, and his life is really over.
"No need, it's better for me to come in person."
Zhu Youxiao said to the Jin Yiwei below:
"Pass my order to the commanders of the Four Guards of Tengxiang, close the palace doors tightly and inspect the palace. No one else is allowed to walk around the palace at will!"
"Tell Wu Xiang Zuowei Commander Deng Chao to protect the concubine, pure concubine and other concubines. No one is allowed to enter or leave the harem without my order, not even the concubine!"
"I am sending an order to Yang Huan, asking him to bring two guards in royal robes into the palace immediately!"
