As soon as the 7th Soldier Battalion arrived, they immediately joined in the defense and worked with the 1st Soldier Battalion to complete the preventive tasks of building the Zhongdun Fort.
The armored cavalry brought by Tan Zaiwang did not return to the Dunbao in Daheihe River. They also stayed to participate in the defense mission here.
Because the cavalry is fast, patrols a large area, and delivers messages quickly, it enlarges the defense range and reduces the defense pressure on the two military battalions.
The place where the First Soldier Battalion is stationed is building a large fort. It takes longer to build the fort than other forts. It requires more craftsmen and puts more pressure on the defense.
With the newly added cavalry from the 7th Soldier Battalion and the Armored Cavalry Battalion, Chen Xunping felt that the burden on his shoulders was lighter.
Before Zhang Sancha's Seventh Soldier Camp arrived, only his First Soldier Battalion was stationed here. The number of soldiers was less than four thousand, and there were not as many people as the common people who had built the forts.
What he worries most about every day is that the Mongolian army will suddenly attack and cause a lot of casualties to the people building the forts. As a result, no people are willing to come to the grassland to build forts for the Tiger Flag.
Several days passed.
There is no action against the Tiger Flag on the grassland. The fort under construction changes every day at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it will not take long for it to be completed.
It was at this time that Qingcheng got the news from Datong.
Bu Shitu sat cross-legged at the top of the sweat tent, looking at the various Taijis in the sweat tent with an ugly expression.
"Great Khan, now the news from Datong has come back. The governor of Datong has not stopped the Tiger Flag from coming to the grassland to build forts. Can we now issue an edict and summon all the ministries?" Zula Kashen faced Divination Stone directly. Rabbit said.
As soon as the news that Bu Shitu received from Datong spread, all the ministries sent Taiji, and several Taijis from the Ulut tribe, which had rarely appeared in Qingcheng, also came.
"Great Khan, give me the decree!" Kankantada looked at the fortune telling rabbit and said.
"Please give me your edict from the Great Khan."
Many Taijis in the Khan tent asked in unison.
The fat on Bu Shi Tuyuan's face trembled slightly, and his expression was very ugly.
These Taijis in front of him were forcing the palace, forcing him, the great khan, to issue the order to summon all the ministries.
At this time, Zhamuhe broke into the Khan tent, stood in the open space inside the door, saluted, and said: "Great Khan, people from the Ordos and Karaqin tribes are here."
In the Khan tent, many Tai Ji looked at Zhamuhe who broke into the Khan tent.
"Great Khan, the Ordos tribe and the Karaqin tribe probably came here because of the Tiger Flag." The bag in the sweat tent said lightly.
Bu Shitu frowned.
The Ordos tribe is one of the ten thousand tribes in right-wing Mongolia. They are responsible for guarding the Eight White Houses of Genghis Khan. Since their pastures are in the Hetao area, they rarely participate in the affairs of right-wing Mongolia.
The Karaqin tribe is a tribe of the Yongxiebu tribe, another Wanhu tribe in right-wing Mongolia.
What he didn't expect was that two ten thousand households from Mongolia on the right wing sent people, especially envoys from the Ordos tribe, which surprised him.
"Great Khan, it's better to let the envoys from the Ordos and Karaqin tribes in quickly. If you really want to leave people outside the sweat tent, people will think that we Tumote don't know how to treat guests if they find out." Su Nangmian Said to Divination Stone Rabbit. 12
Bu Shitu said to Zhamuhe: "Invite the envoys from the two tribes in!"
"Yes." Zhamuhe exited the sweat tent.
Not long after, the curtain in front of the sweat tent was opened, and several Mongolians with round faces and bow-legged people walked in from the outside.
Walking in the front was Taiji Buhe from the Ordos tribe. He held his chest with one hand and saluted the fortune teller, and said in his mouth: "I have seen Jinong."
Jinong means Deputy Khan.
The Great Khan of Bu Shitu was conferred by the monks of the Yellow Sect, and starting from Ada Khan, the real position of Lord Tumote among the Mongols was Jinong. Only Lindan Khan of Chahar was the real great king on the grassland. sweat.
However, most Mongolians believe in Buddhism, and any Taiji from a small tribe may be named the Great Khan by the monks, causing the number of Great Khans on the grassland to be numerous.
Along with Taiji from the Ordos tribe, there were several Taijis from the Karaqin tribe who walked into the Khan tent. The leader was a Taiji named Axige, who was the second son of Bai Hongdaha, the lord of Karaqin.
Bu Shitu smiled and said to the Taijis who walked into the Khan's tent: "Please take a seat, Taijis! There will be a roast lamb feast later, and I will entertain you well."
"Buhe thanked Jinong for his warm hospitality." Buhe bowed and then said, "I came here this time to ask Jinong how Jinong plans to deal with the tiger-character flag."
Hearing this, Bu Shitu glanced at the old god's bag.
He knew in his heart that the envoys from the Ordos Tribe and the Karaqin Tribe were brought by Su Nang specifically to force him, the Great Khan, to use troops against the Tiger-Character Banner.
"Our Karaqin tribe also means the same thing." Ashig said the same thing.
Bu Shitu tapped the golden bottle in his hand a few times with his fingers, and then said: "I didn't expect that the tiger-character flag has been spread to you, but it's okay, since you are here, let's talk about what your two tribes are. Opinion?"
"The Tiger Banner dared to build forts on the grassland. They simply didn't take us Mongolians seriously. Our Great Khan meant to send troops to them, completely drive them out of the grassland and destroy those forts." Bu He said .
Ashig also said: "My father Khan also means to drive the Tiger Flag out of the grassland. He is willing to send troops together with Jinong."
At this time, Kankantada faced Bushitu and said: "Great Khan, Baihong Dahataji and Ordos tribes all support sending troops to the Tiger Banner. Great Khan, please don't hesitate. Please also issue a decree and summon all the ministries." warrior."
"Please give the Great Khan a decree, and we are willing to send troops."
Many Taijis in the Khan tent once again made requests to the fortune teller.
Bu Shitu's eyes swept over Taiji from all the Tumut tribes, and finally landed on Taiji from the Ordos tribe and the Karaqin tribe. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said: "Inform all the tribes and order them to summon the warriors from the tribe. Drive the people of the Tiger Flag out of the grassland."
"We respect the will of the Great Khan."
Taiji in the Khan tent bowed to the fortune telling rabbit.
Bu Shitu looked at Taiji from the Ordos tribe and the Karaqin tribe, and said: "You can also participate in the use of troops against the Tiger Flag this time."
"Don't worry, Jinong. When I came, Father Khan had already agreed to send troops. I will send someone back to deliver a message to Father Khan." Azig said to Bu Shitu.
Bu Shitu looked at Buhe from the Ordos tribe and said, "Where is the Ordos tribe? When will we send soldiers here?"
Bu He first saluted, and then said: "Jinong, our Ordos Department has to guard the Eight White Houses, and also be on guard against the Ming army in Yulin. We are temporarily unable to send soldiers to follow Jinong."
