It was precisely because of the oppression of the Chahar tribe that the Horqin tribe had to rely on Dajin to compete with the Chahar tribe.
Hutuktu Khan wanted Horqin to abandon their alliance with Dajin. Even though Hutuktu knew that he could not make the decision, he also knew that Oba Taiji would not agree to this condition.
Otherwise, even if Dajin does not take action against Horqin, the Chahar Ministry will not let them go.
"You Horqin are the subjects of Changshengtian, and also the subjects of this Khan. I cannot ignore you. As long as the army of pseudo-slaves dares to invade Horqin, I, as the Great Khan, will naturally help you deal with the pseudo-slaves." Khutuktu Khan said.
Unifying the grasslands has always been his long-cherished wish, and the fertile Horqin grasslands are considered fat on his lips. However, because of his status as a pseudo-slave, he has always been unable to eat this piece of fat.
Hutu said: "We accept the good intention of the Great Khan. As for the alliance between Horqin and Dajin, it is still Obatéji who has the final say. I can only convey the request made by the Great Khan to Obatéji."
"It doesn't matter. I am not in a hurry. When did Oba agree to my request? Why did I agree to your request?" Khutuktu Khan said.
Hutu stood up from behind the low table, faced Hutuktu Khan and said, "In that case, I will go back to Horqin and try to bring the Khan's words as early as possible."
With that said, he bowed to Hutuktu Khan.
"That's fine, I'll wait for Oba's reply." Hutuktu Khan nodded, and turned to a Chahar Budai Ji who was present and said, "Chimur, you go and send Hutuk off."
A bearded Mongolian stood up behind the low table.
He came out from behind the low table, stood in the middle, and said to Hutu: "Kututaiji, please, I will arrange for someone to escort you back to Horqin."
"Thank you." Hutu nodded to Chimu'er, and then several other people from Horqin's tribe followed Chimu'er out of the Khan Palace.
As soon as they left, only Hutuktu Khan and a few Taijis from the Chahar tribe were left in the Khan's palace.
"Bogeri, Morigen, you two tell Ben Khan, what happened to Qingcheng this time?" After finally waiting for the people from Horqin's tribe to leave, Hutuktu Khan finally couldn't help but tell Boge Ge Ri and Mo Rigen found out.
Bogez and Mo Zhigen stood up from behind the low table, both of them lowered their heads.
"Even if you don't tell me, Ben Khan can figure out the whole story from other people's mouths." Hutuktu Khan said, "Why don't you tell me quickly? Do you really want Ben Khan to send someone to ask?"
Several other Taijis in the Khan's palace looked at Bogeri and Morigen with gloating eyes.
Several of them also competed for the job in Qingcheng, but they couldn't compete with these two people. Now they came back in disgrace, feeling happy.
Mo Rigen gritted his teeth and said: "Reporting to the Great Khan, my subordinates were incompetent and failed to get close to Qingcheng. On the way to Qingcheng, they were intercepted by the fort built by the Tiger Flag."
"The fortress of the Tiger Flag has been built? So fast!" Hutuktu Khan frowned.
The fact that the Tiger Character Banner built a fort outside Zhangjiakou is not a secret at all to the grassland tribes. The Chahar tribe has been keeping an eye on the Tiger Character Banner, so naturally they also know about the Tiger Character Banner's building of a fort on the grassland.
Morigen said: "When my subordinates went there this time, they had already built it and connected it with the forts built by Tiger Character Banner on the grassland last year. This prevented my subordinates and the army from approaching Qingcheng. "
"It's not entirely your fault. No one expected that the Han people built so many forts and fire roads in such a short period of time." Hutuktu Khan stroked his beard.
Mo Rigen, who was standing below, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Great Khan, no matter how many forts the Tiger Character Banner builds on the grassland, we cannot give up the land. It used to be the pasture of our Chahar tribe, and we will take it back in the future." One of the people present Taiji from the Chahar tribe said.
The right-wing Mongolia is to the west of the Chahar tribe. If the Chahar tribe wants to unify the grassland, it is inevitable to move westward. The land of the Tumote tribe is the richest place on the grassland. Once the Chahar tribe moves westward, there will be The pastures of the Chahar tribe, where the herders of the Chahar tribe will live in the future.
Hutuktu Khan, who was sitting on the main seat, nodded.
He wants to unify the grassland and will live in Qingcheng, the pearl of the grassland. However, now that Qingcheng has fallen into the hands of the Tiger Flag, as the Lord of the grassland and the Great Khan of the Mongols, he will naturally take back this city from the Tiger Flag. The pearl of the prairie.
More importantly, the Tumut tribe was defeated by the Tiger Banner. If the Chahar tribe led by him can retake Qingcheng from the Tiger Banner, his prestige as a great khan will be unprecedented, enough to rival the previous leader who unified the grasslands. Dayan Khan is comparable.
"Mozhigen, you and Bogezhi brought more than 4,000 armored cavalry, but you can't even do anything about a fort built by the Han people. It's too embarrassing for the Chahar tribe." Taiji who spoke before Looking at Mo Rigen, he said.
At this time, Hutuktu Khan said: "It's not like we haven't captured the Han people's forts before. Morigen, you brought more than 4,000 armored cavalry. It shouldn't be a big problem to capture a fort, let alone You haven't even been able to capture a single fort."
The Chahar tribe had also invaded the Ming border areas many times, and was very familiar with the Ming Dynasty's piers, fire road piers, and military towers. Every time they attacked the Ming Dynasty's border areas, they would uproot some Ming Dynasty soldiers on the way forward. Castle.
"The fort built by the Tiger Character Banner is different from the fort built by the Ming Dynasty. It is not that easy to attack. Moreover, they have deployed cannons on the top of the city, making it difficult for subordinates to bring people close to the fort." Mo Rigen complained. .
There were very few cannons in the Ming Dynasty's fire road piers. In many cases, they only served as beacon towers, and there were not too many people inside the pier.
Thousands of Mongolian troops attacked Huolu Dun of the Ming Dynasty without any effort at all.
But facing the Dunbao with the Tiger Flag, it was completely different.
There are cannons on the top of the fort and there are perforations on the outer walls. The key is that there are many soldiers and horses stationed in each fort. It is a military fortress, not the kind that only arranges a dozen people to set off the smoke. The fire road pier.
Of course, the Tiger Flag also has small fire road piers.
However, the fire road pier of the Tiger Character Banner is not the kind of fire road pier of the Ming Dynasty. It is also a military fortress. Although there are not many people inside, there is no shortage of cannons and perforations. It is just the number. It is less than the large fortress.
Hutuktu Khan's face sank and he said: "A few cannons have scared you. Haven't you ever entered the cannons of the Ming Dynasty before?"
The Ming Dynasty also placed some general artillery in some important forts to defend against enemies.
"Even if there are cannons in the Ming Dynasty's fortress, there are not many cannons. There are only a few cannons at most. It takes a long time to reload after a round of firing. But the one with the tiger character flag is different. They placed countless cannons in the fort. The firing is endless. Without it, our cavalry has no chance to get close." Mo Rigen complained.
