Zhamuheyi received the order to summon Shitu and immediately came to the Khan Palace to meet Shitu.
Bu Shitu said to Zhamuhe: "Lao Taiji has just received the news that the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Character Banner have begun to mobilize. This Khan ordered that the decree be sent to all ministries immediately, so that the soldiers from each ministry should come to Qingcheng immediately. There must be no mistakes. , go quickly."
"Yes." Zhamuhe agreed and turned around to retreat.
Bu Shitu looked at Kankantada again and said: "Old Taiji, the reinforcements from the Ordos and Yongxiebu tribes have not arrived yet, and there is no news from Mobei. Now we are the only soldiers from Tumut. Can you stop the invading soldiers and horses from the Tiger Flag?"
Last year, he suffered several losses at the hands of the soldiers of the Tiger Flag. He knew that the soldiers of the Tiger Flag were not easy to deal with, and now that there were no reinforcements, he was worried that he would not be a match for the Tiger Flag.
"Don't worry, Great Khan. If the Tiger Banner wants to attack us, they can only come out of the fort. Without the protection of the fort, their infantry will be lambs to be slaughtered to our cavalry. The infantry will never Might be the cavalry's opponent," Kancantada said with relief.
Bu Shitu nodded consolingly and said to himself: "Old Taiji is right, infantry cannot be the opponent of cavalry. Although the soldiers of the Tiger Flag are powerful, they are defending the city and cannot be done in the wild. He is our opponent."
As he spoke, he clenched his two fat fists tightly to cheer himself up.
"If the army of the Tiger Character Banner invades, they will definitely attack Bansheng City where Su Nang is located first. I am going to see Su Nang. After the soldiers from various ministries arrive in Qingcheng, I hope that the Great Khan will send soldiers from all ministries to Bansheng City,” Kancantada said.
Hearing this, Bu Shitu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Old Taiji can stay in Qingcheng and send someone to notify Su Nang and ask Su Nang to come to Qingcheng."
Bansheng City is Su Nang's place, and Qingcheng is the city of his Khan. He does not want to send soldiers from various ministries to Bansheng City to help Su Nang.
Kankantada guessed wrongly what Shitu was thinking and persuaded him: "Great Khan, although Qingcheng is important, Bansheng City is equally important. Once the Tiger Character Banner captures Bansheng City, Qingcheng must be the next target. "
"Can Su Nang abandon Qingcheng and bring all the tribe's warriors here? I don't mind leaving him a place to live in Qingcheng." Bu Shitu said.
Kankantada continued to persuade: "The soldiers and horses of the Tiger Character Banner must cross the river if they want to attack Bansheng City. As long as we guard the river bank, we can easily block the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Character Banner on the other side of the river. If we let The soldiers and horses of the Tiger-Character Flag crossed the river? What followed was a flat plain. Although it was suitable for cavalry to charge, it also facilitated the soldiers and horses of the Tiger-Character Flag to spread out their formation."
Bu Shitu frowned and had no words.
Seeing this, Kankantada said: "Great Khan, Bansheng City has the wealth accumulated by the Sanniangzi lineage for many years? Is it just lost to the tiger-character flag? It's really not worth it? You might as well go with the tiger-character flag near the river bank. The soldiers and horses of the flag fought in a decisive battle and defeated the army of the Tiger Flag in one battle."
"Old Taiji, can you confidently block the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Flag on the other side of the river?" Bu Shitu asked tentatively.
Nowadays, none of the soldiers from Tumut's tribes have come to Qingcheng? Especially the tribes in Mobei and the Ordos tribe? And the reinforcements from the Yongxiebu tribe have not come.
Therefore, Bushitu knew that the Tumut tribe needed time to delay the arrival of reinforcements from these tribes.
"Don't worry, Great Khan, I will definitely be able to block the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Flag on the other side of the river." Kankantada assured.
He himself does have this confidence.
The river has just begun to melt? Is there still ice floating on it? At this time, the soldiers and horses of the Tiger Flag want to cross the river? Cross the river.
Bu Shitu hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Then just follow Lao Taiji's wishes."
"Thank you for your trust, I won't waste any time. Now I will take people to Bansheng City to fight Su Nang." Kankantada said.
Bu Shitu nodded and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Lao Taiji. I will leave the matter of the Tiger Flag to Lao Taiji."
Kankantada did not stay longer in the Khan Palace and left Qingcheng with his personal guards that day.
Bansheng City is not far from Qingcheng. In later generations, both Qingcheng and Bansheng City were within the territory of Hohhot.
When Kankantada arrived at Bansheng City, it was completely dark.
"Take me to see Su Nang." When he arrived at Su Nang's residence, Kankantada said to the soldiers outside.
Kankantada, as an old Taiji with great status in Tumut, the soldier took Kankantada to the room where Su Nang was.
At this time, Su Nang was eating mutton and drinking strong wine in the room.
When Kankantada came in, Su Nang, who was eating, was startled.
"You are really in the mood to eat here. Do you know that the Tiger Character Banner has begun to mobilize troops and will send troops soon. By then, your Bansheng City will be the first target of their attack." Kankantada He stared at Su Nang and said.
Su Nang frowned, put down the meat and bones in his hand, and said, "This is impossible. The earth has not yet been civilized. How could the tiger-character flag come at this time?"
"If you don't believe the news that the sentinels I sent out personally brought back, you can also send the sentinels to find out." Kancantada said with an ugly face.
He didn't expect Su Nang to be completely unprepared now.
Su Nang said: "I will send someone to check whether the news is true or false, but are you here just to tell me this?"
"I came here this time to hope that you can immediately assemble an army to deal with the incoming Tiger Flag soldiers." Kankantada said, while walking to the side of the low table and sitting down cross-legged.
Su Nang said: "It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that this time is not suitable for a war. This winter has not completely passed, and the ministries have not recovered their strength. A sudden war at this time, regardless of winning or losing, will cause great losses to each ministry."
"If you lose, do you think there will be Tumut? You may have forgotten the ambition of the Tiger Flag. They want to completely occupy our Tumut grassland." Kankantada said with an ugly face.
He didn't expect that at this time, Su Nang would still hit Xiao Jiujiu in his heart.
Su Nang frowned and did not say: "It's better to wait until I send someone to investigate and see if the Tiger Flag is really going to cross the river. If the Tiger Flag really wants to invade, I will naturally summon an army to fight the Tiger Flag. "
"I've been staying with you for the past few days, and I hope you can really send troops to fight." Kancantada said.
Su Nang nodded and said: "Tumote is not just Bushitu's Tumote, but also my Tumote. Don't worry, I will send troops to protect Tumote."
"That's good, but don't worry. I have discussed it with the Great Khan. As soon as the ministries receive the news, they will come to Bansheng City to support you." Kankantada said to Su Nang.
Su Nang nodded.
