"Khan, we have to take three steps!"
Daiboltai walked slowly: "First, send an envoy to the Xuanfu, meet with the Xuanfu general or the emperor, question the reasons why the caravan was hijacked and the annual gift was cancelled, and demand high compensation.
They have a tough attitude, and our attitude must be even tougher. The competition at this time is momentum! "
"Second, each ministry raises troops, with a total strength of at least 30,000. Chen Bing is at Maoming'an, which is only a hundred miles away from the Ming Dynasty. We are here in one charge.
We must put pressure on Ming. If he doesn't agree to our conditions, we can attack at any time. "
"Third, send people into the Ming Dynasty to spread the rumors. Although the Ming Dynasty has given measures to deal with it, the three of them will become a tiger. As long as the rumors continue, the Ming Dynasty will waste its energy.
For example, when Ming Dynasty started a war, the people's property and soldiers' lives were lost, etc. Let the people put pressure on the court and force them to agree to our conditions. "
"The Art of War says: All warfighters rely on righteousness and surprise to win. The envoys and soldiers are righteous, and public opinion is miraculous. Only when miraculous and righteous are combined can the overall situation be planned."
Bu Shitu Khan thought for a moment and looked at the others: "Do you have any questions?"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately said: "Why do you want Chen Bing to be in Maoming'an Department?"
"Because it is the center of our tribe and is close to all the tribes. It saves the hassle of going back and forth, and it also avoids the main force of the Ming army."
"Who will the envoy send?"
"Taiji of the Twelve Tribunals, Shepherd, Hanahu Bogun (son of the Great Khan, meaning prince)"
Everyone argued for a while, and finally Daiboltaiji took over the envoy's job amidst everyone's dissatisfaction.
The reason is simple. He is the one who understands the problems of the strategy he proposes best, so he is naturally responsible for it.
There is no loss if the negotiation fails. If the negotiation is successful, it will be a great achievement. Not only will the cohesion of the own department be stronger, but the prestige of the entire Tumut Department will also be improved.
After some further discussion, the candidates for the mission were decided, and it was agreed upon that after everyone left, the ministries would send troops.
There were only two people left in the hall, Bushitu Khan and Daiboltaiji.
Bu Shitu Khan whispered: "Dai Boer, do you have other intentions in letting Chen Bing stay in Maoming'an Department?"
"Sure enough, I can't hide it from Khan."
Daibol stepped forward and whispered a few words into Bu Shitu Khan's ear, with a sinister smile on his face.
After hearing this, Bu Shitu Khan looked at Dai Boer, his pupils shrank for a moment, and then returned to normal. After explaining a few words, he let Dai Boer leave.
Half a day later, an envoy consisting of hundreds of elites quickly came towards Xuanfu, changing horses but not people along the way.
It only took two days for the mission to reach the outskirts of Zhangjiakou Fort.
After receiving the news, the newly appointed Zhangjiakou Fort Commander-in-Chief You Shilu immediately spread the news to Xuanfu City.
After getting the news, Han Huang found Chongzhen who was about to interrogate Wang Chengyin.
"Your Majesty, the Tumo Special Envoy is here, and the envoy is Daiboltaiji, the leader of the Wushen Tribe."
Without waiting for Chongzhen to ask back, Han Huang immediately said: "The Wushen tribe is the tribe led by Altan Khan's brother Razabuk Taiji. The pastureland is at the border fortress of Datong Town.
His grandfather, Daiqing Darhan Taiji, presided over major affairs such as mutual trade and tribute trade with the imperial court in the sixth year of Wanli. Most of the leaders of this department were famous for their wisdom! "
Chongzhen nodded: "Did you say what you came for?"
"No, the mission just said that Shitu Khan came to meet His Majesty. We can't tell you the details until we meet His Majesty!"
"Will the memorial tower be completed tonight?"
After receiving Han Huang's accurate answer, Chongzhen pondered for a while: "I will go to the Memorial Tower at noon tomorrow to participate in the pagoda sealing ceremony. Let the envoys go to the Memorial Tower to observe the ceremony!"
Everyone was shocked, naturally knowing Chongzhen's intention.
After everyone left, Tan Yao took the dying Wang Chengyin to the governor's hall.
Looking at the dying Wang Chengyin, Chongzhen also sighed. Using the methods of the Jin Yiwei, he interrogated him for several days but did not let him speak.
If you have this kind of character, you can't do anything wrong, and you have to make trouble.
"Everyone, please exit. No one is allowed to come near within ten feet of the lobby without my permission."
"Your Majesty, please stay here, just in case this guy..."
Tan Yao was shocked, but stopped mid-sentence.
Instead, with a wave of his hand, Wang Chengyin was given a pair of leg and hand shackles, and then tied to a pillar with five-flowered ropes, and then retreated.
Looking at the empty lobby, Chongzhen walked up to Wang Chengyin: "Wang Chengyin, I don't know what benefits they gave you, but you didn't even say anything."
What he got was Wang Chengyin pretending to be dead. Chongzhen didn't care and said calmly: "The caravan you protected is Shanxi Jiexiu Fan family, Luliang and Xinzhou Wang family, Datong Jin family, Hongdong Liang family, Qixian Tian family, Qinxian family Zhai family, Huang family, these eight Shanxi merchants!
Maybe not all, but these eight are the main ones, right? "
Wang Chengyin, who had just pretended to be dead, opened his eyes instantly, his eyes full of shock and horror, and his throat made a whirring sound.
"You are doing business with Jian Nu, mainly salt and ironware, right?"
…
"Don't worry, I have sent people to keep an eye on the eight families. After the Xuanfu matter is settled, I will go to Taiyuan, uproot these eight families, confiscate their families and exterminate them..."
"Tell me honestly, is King Dai and King Jin involved in this, or is it the Five Dukes? I can give you a happy surprise!"
Chongzhen spoke slowly, and Wang Chengyin's eyes became more frightened, and then he roared angrily, and then spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood, and then there was no sound.
"Somebody come!"
Chongzhen shouted, and Tan Yao immediately rushed over and looked at Wang Chengyin with his head drooped, his eyes full of surprise.
Then he immediately stepped forward and touched the carotid artery in his neck: "Your Majesty, you still have breath!"
"Hanging his life, letting him die like this is too easy for him. If you say you want Lingchi, you must Lingchi!"
After Chongzhen finished speaking, he left.
Early the next morning, Luan Jia headed towards Lianjiazhai Mountain where the memorial tower was located. At this moment, the area around the memorial tower was already crowded with people.
The base of this octagonal stone tower is fifteen feet long and seven stories high. Although the construction period is relatively short, the entire stone tower still exudes simplicity and grandeur.
The three words "Memorial Tower" on the first floor plaque were inscribed by Chongzhen himself. On both sides of the front of the tower are kneeling stone statues of Wang Chengyin and others.
After the bones of the people who were accidentally killed were collected, they were all placed in the underground palace of the memorial tower.
The reason why the pagoda was built in Lianjia Mountain is because there is a Fufu Temple on this mountain.
After today, the Buddhist temple will arrange for monks to chant sutras in the pagoda in the morning and evening every day.
It not only resolves the grievances of the people who died in vain, but also prays for them. After all, the people believe this.
After Han Huang and Hou Lian paid homage to Chongzhen, Hou Lian read out Wang Chengyin's evidence of guilt again.
Amidst the angry curses of the people, Wang Chengyin and more than ten soldiers were detained. The scene was bloody.
The Tumed envoys who were invited to watch the ceremony in the distance had ugly expressions on their faces.
If you just just watch, forget it. Tan Yao, the chief of Fusi in Beizhen, is still explaining, explaining the reason for each cut.
This is naked shock!
After announcing the memorial day and the precautions for mourning, Chongzhen summoned the Tumo Special Envoy.
"Tumote's envoy Daiboltaiji has met the Ming Emperor. May the Ming Emperor pay his respects!"
Looking at Daibo Taiji who was stroking his chest, Chongzhen first smiled, and then his face turned cold.
"Come here, take the Tumed envoy out and chop him down!"
