Two official documents representing orders from the Military and Administrative Department were sent to Datong and Xuanfu respectively.
Only two days later than these two official documents, Wang Yuncheng and the Third War Division left Qingcheng.
The Mongolians did not know the official document about leaving Qingcheng, and even if they knew it, they would not care. However, every Mongolian in Qingcheng was paying attention to the mobilization of soldiers and horses with the Tiger Flag.
Especially the Taiji of the Tumut tribe and those from other tribes who came to attend the Ombuhong succession ceremony. These people are extremely concerned about any movement of the tiger-character flag soldiers and horses.
"Tell me quickly, what's going on over there at the Tiger Flag? Have all the soldiers and horses in the city left?" Zhamuhe asked anxiously to Anzabu, who had just returned from outside.
In the Khan's palace, many Taijis from the Tumut tribe were here with Ombuhong.
The Taijis of the Tumut tribes were no longer qualified to continue to lead the herdsmen in the tribe. These people were forced to stay in Qingcheng by the Tiger Banner, and their tribes outside began to be reintegrated by the Tiger Banner.
There were no herdsmen to control, and they had nothing to do in Qingcheng all day long, so they would come to the Khan Palace every day to meet Ombuhong, the future Tumut Khan.
Anzabu, who brought back the news from the outside, said: "We have figured out that a group of soldiers and horses with the Tiger Flag in the city left Qingcheng, but another group of soldiers and horses were transferred from outside the city to replace them."
"It seems that the Tiger Character Banner will not give up Qingcheng, let alone return it to us Mongols." Harbala said slightly disappointed.
Even if he has resigned himself to his fate, he would naturally be more willing to restore the previous situation between the Tumut Department and the Tiger Flag. After all, if they stay in Qingcheng, they will only have the status of nobles. In fact, they are not the same as the Tiger Flag. The captives are almost the same, far less comfortable and free in their own tribe.
Unfortunately, he knew it was impossible. Tiger Character Banner would never let a Tumot Taiji like him leave Qingcheng and return to the tribe. Once he went back, he suspected that he would end up like Su Nang.
Although his freedom is now restricted, his life is still there, and the wealth accumulated by the Ulut tribe over the years is enough for him to live a comfortable life.
"If I had known that the Tiger Character Banner was so ambitious, I shouldn't have allowed them to come to the grassland back then." Zhamuhe said bitterly.
Ombuhong, who was sitting in the main seat of the Khan Palace, said at this time: "Although the Tiger Character Banner occupied Qingcheng, it at least saved our lives. If it were the Ming army, I am afraid our end would be even worse than now."
When Qingcheng fell, he almost died in the hands of the people of the Tiger Flag. As a teenager, he had been frightened to death. Now he is alive and has the opportunity to live in the Khan's Palace. It won't be long before he will become a peasant. Mert sweated profusely, he was already content.
"Taiji, when you were young, you had never seen the people of the Tiger-Character Banner humble in front of the Great Khan. If the Great Khan had not pitied them, the Tiger-Character Banner, and given them the opportunity to come to the grassland, where would the Tiger-Character Flag be today? ." Zhamuhe said with his lips curled up.
In his eyes, the Tiger Character Banner is what it is today, thanks to the help of their Tumut Khan. Now the Tiger Character Banner has occupied the Tumut Grassland. He thinks the people of the Tiger Character Banner are ungrateful.
Ombuhong frowned and said: "I remember that the people in the Tiger Flag gave my father a lot of things in exchange for the Tiger Flag's convoy to travel to the grassland. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty reduced the horse market at that time. We Tumute The herdsmen of the Ministry also need goods from the Ming Dynasty."
Although he is young, he has already remembered things, and he is not completely ignorant of the fact that Tiger Character Banner was able to come to the grassland to do business.
As far as he knew, the herdsmen below were happy for a long time because they could exchange their fur goods for the goods brought by the Tiger Flag.
Zhamuhe looked embarrassed when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, Ombuhong would speak for the Tiger Flag at this time.
At this time, Ombuhong also realized that he had said something and hurriedly said: "I said something wrong. No matter what happened to the Tiger Character Banner in the past, this time they forcibly occupied Qingcheng and our grassland. They are already sorry." We go first.”
Zhamuhe's face became even more embarrassed.
The war was initiated by their Tumote tribe, and the only people who have to say sorry are the Great Khan and the Taiji of various tribes.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Halbala interrupted the awkward atmosphere between the two people and said, "In a few days, there will be a grand ceremony for Ombuhong to inherit the throne of Khan. Almost all the ministries have sent envoys. To observe the ceremony, even the Chahar tribe sent an envoy, which shows that Chahar recognized Ombuhong’s succession to the throne.”
The relationship between the Chahar tribe and the Tumut tribe is not very close, but both sides are descendants of Dayan Khan, and the Tumut tribe has always recognized that Lindan Khan of the Chahar tribe is the leader of all Mongolia. Sweat profusely.
Only when Lin Danhan recognized him, Ombuhong's status as Lord Tumut could be truly justified.
Ombuhong said happily: "Since the Chahar envoy has arrived, he should be invited to the Khan Palace. General Zhamuhe, please send someone to invite him."
"Great Khan, the envoy sent by the Chahar tribe has left." Zhamuhe said with a not ugly face.
Ombuhong frowned and said, "Why did they leave? Aren't they here to attend my succession ceremony? The succession ceremony hasn't started yet, why did they leave? Send someone to chase them back!"
The Chahar tribe's envoy left before his succession ceremony, which made him feel that this was a signal from Lin Dan Khan and did not want to recognize his identity as the lord of the Tumut tribe.
"They have been gone for two days. I heard that they left Qingcheng after seeing Liu Heng with the Tiger Flag, and Batu, the Supervisory Minister, also left with him," Zhamuhe said.
He has been sending people to keep an eye on the movements of the Tiger Flag, and he knows everything about the arrival and departure of the Chahar envoys.
Because of this, he felt that the envoy from the Chahar tribe did not come to Qingcheng to congratulate Omubuhong for becoming the Tumed Khan, so he simply did not tell Omubuhong about the envoy from the Chahar tribe.
"The envoy from the Chahar Ministry has left?" Harbala was equally surprised.
He only knew that the envoy from the Chahar tribe had arrived in Qingcheng, but he had no idea that he had left.
Zhamuhe said: "It should be Liu Heng of the Tiger Banner, the envoy of the Chahar tribe, who discussed something. Unfortunately, the only people who knew about it were the people of the Tiger Banner and the Chahar tribe's envoy. My people couldn't find out at all. What they discussed specifically.”
"Could the Chahar envoy come here to ask the Tiger Flag to return the Tumut Grassland to us?" Ombuhong guessed.
Zhamuheyi shook his head and said: "This is impossible. If the envoys from the Chahar tribe really want the Tiger Character Banner to return the Tumut Grassland to us, they will not leave after meeting the owner of the Tiger Character Banner." Qingcheng, you should at least meet Ombuhong Taiji before leaving."
"Well, I think Zhamuhe is right." Halbala nodded in agreement.
Based on the relationship between the Tumote Tribe and the Chahar Tribe, he did not believe that Lin Dan Khan would come forward to find the Tiger Flag back to the Tumute Grassland on behalf of the Tumute Tribe. It would be more like Lin Dan Khan doing it for himself.
