Azig hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
The soldiers of the Haraqin tribe have been coming to Tumote for so long and have fought against the Tiger Character Banner more than once. They know how difficult it is to deal with the Tiger Character Banner soldiers.
Even if they can win, their side will lose many warriors. Their Haraqin tribe is one of the tribes with ten thousand households in the Yongxiebu tribe, and it is impossible for them to fight for the Tumut tribe.
Seeing that Azig understood, Orgler said: "We have to leave as soon as possible. I'm afraid Harbala will return soon."
"Don't worry, Lao Taiji, I understand." Azig said.
Orgler said: "This time we have seen the power of the Tiger Flag's soldiers. No wonder the horse bandits on the grassland dare not touch the Tiger Flag's convoy. Fortunately, the Tiger Flag's forts are all built in Tumut." On the grassland, if it were built in our Haraqin tribe, our headache would be our sweat."
Azig nodded in agreement.
He had never taken it seriously when he saw the Tiger-Character Flag's convoy and escorts on the Haraqin Grassland before. If it weren't for the fact that the Tiger-Character Flag's convoy had close contact with the Haraqin tribe, he would have been unable to resist snatching them away. A motorcade with a tiger flag.
On the grasslands, it was not just horse bandits who robbed caravans. Sometimes herders from various tribes also pretended to be horse bandits and robbed Han caravans that came to the grasslands.
Now I know through fighting how powerful the tiger-character flag soldiers are, and I also understand that the tiger-character flag's fleet is not that easy to grab. If you send fewer people, you will not be able to match the tiger-character flag soldiers. If you send too many people, there will be casualties. If it's too much, even if you seize the team, it may not be cost-effective.
"Winter is coming, and all the ministries need to survive the winter. This year, the Tumut Department will definitely have no choice but to use the tiger-character flag. After the land has been civilized, the Tumut Department still wants to deal with the tiger-character flag, so it can only find other ministries to join forces. Just rely on A Tumut tribe is no longer a match for the Tiger Flag." Orgler expressed his analysis.
Azig said: "If the tribes in Monan join forces, let alone a tiger-character flag, even the Ming Dynasty may not be an opponent. It is a pity that the Tumote tribe is unwilling to go to Lin Danhan in Baicheng."
"Remember, we must not allow the tens of thousands of tribes from Mongolia on the left to come to the grasslands of Mongolia on the right." Orgler said solemnly.
Seeing that Orgler was serious, Azig said: "Don't worry, old Taiji. I know in my heart that my father Khan also said that our grassland of 30,000 households on the right wing must never be given to 30,000 households on the left wing. If we want to move, the 30,000 households on our right wing will also be driven back by him."
"As long as you understand." Orgler nodded.
The left-wing Mongolia and the right-wing Mongolia are both Mongolians, and even the leaders of several large tribes with tens of thousands of households are of the blood of the Golden Family. However, the conflict between the two sides is like two enemy countries.
In particular, the 30,000 households on the right wing are more prosperous than the 30,000 households on the left wing. Not only do they have a horse market, but they can also receive market rewards from the Ming Dynasty every year. These are benefits that the 30,000 households on the left wing do not have.
In addition, the existing grasslands in the Hetao area and Tumut are all the grasslands of Chahar. Only because Tumut was too strong during the Anda Khan period, Chahar had to give up this grassland and retreat to the more barren Baicheng. area.
Baicheng is a Tucheng that existed during the Liao Dynasty. Although it is not as good as Qingcheng, it is also a rare large city in the grasslands of eastern Monan.
The curtain of the yurt was opened, and a guard from the Haraqin tribe walked in quickly from the outside.
Both Azig and Orgler's eyes were attracted by the guard who broke into the yurt.
"Taiji, Su Nang and his tribe members left the camp and headed towards the Dahei River." The guard said to the two Taiji in front of him.
Orgler frowned slightly and said: "I didn't expect that Su Nang would move so quickly. It seems that he had already planned to leave, and as soon as he left, all the ministries would also leave. This time the Tumote Ministry's conquest of Tiger Characters The flag is considered a failure.”
"You can't defeat the soldiers and horses with the tiger flag if you stay here. You're wasting your time here. It's better to go back early and prepare more horse grass for the winter." Azig said.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the existing force alone is no match for the Tiger Flag, and it would be a waste of time to continue to stay.
Orgler said: "Before, I thought that several big Taijis in Tumut would fight against the Tiger Flag. Now it seems that it is a foregone conclusion that the Tiger Flag will build forts on the grassland. The Tumut Department can only I held my nose and endured it.”
"This is all the matter of the Tumote Department and has nothing to do with our Haraqin Department. It's a pity that we could not solve the problem of the Tiger Flag, otherwise our Haraqin Department would have had an easier time this winter." Azig looked regretful. explain.
After fighting, I realized that with the strength of the Tiger Flag, it was difficult to be driven out of the grassland.
…………
Three days passed in a row.
After Su Nang left with his tribe, some small tribes also left the army and embarked on their return journey.
The Haraqin tribe left the camp the next day, and there were less than 20,000 Mongolian troops left around Bu Shitu.
In addition to not having the confidence to defeat the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Flag, many of the tribes that left did so because they had to prepare for the winter, especially the small tribes. Many of them could not even prepare enough hay for the winter, so they continued to be with the army. There is a chance that I won’t survive this winter.
These small tribes left on their own without notifying Shitu.
However, Bu Shitu was well aware of these tribes leaving, and since there were so many tribes leaving, he was used to it. If it weren't for the fact that he still had to wait for the tribes from the Ulut tribe and Mobei, he would not have wanted to continue. Stay here.
Even if the yurt he lives in is the largest and best among all yurts, it cannot compare to his residence in Qingcheng.
"Taiji, the Ulut tribe is already on the way back, and the sentries have been sent back..." Zhamuhe came to Bu Shitu and reported.
Bu Shitu, who was sitting in the sweat tent, put down the wine bowl in his hand and said hurriedly: "Quickly, bring the sentry knights who have returned."
"Yes." Zhamuhe responded, then turned and left the sweat tent.
At this moment, Bu Shitu's face showed a bit of eagerness.
Halbala from the Ulut tribe and Gunbu from Mobei went to the border areas of the Ming Dynasty, hoping to force the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to deal with the Tiger Flag by pressing the border areas of the Ming Kingdom.
This is also their only chance to deal with the Tiger Flag.
Not long after, Zhamuhe brought a Mongolian man wearing leather armor to the sweat tent.
"Uli Han saw the Great Khan." The Mongolian man wearing leather armor saluted the fortune teller.
Bu Shitu waved his hand and said: "Quickly, Ben Khan, tell me what happened on the border of the Ming Kingdom. Tell me word for word and let Ben Khan know."
"Yes." Wulihan bowed and said immediately, "My family Taiji and Gunbutaiji from Mobei led two groups of warriors to attack the border areas of the Ming Kingdom. Unfortunately, the border troops of the Ming Kingdom were already prepared. I failed to take advantage several times, but instead damaged many warriors and had to come back in the end."
