"Seek peace?" Zhu Di sneered, "How can a person who goes back on his word be trusted?"
Ye Xian's face warmed up and he said respectfully: "The Hami incident... was made by a general of the Wala Tribe, not my father's intention. When my father learned about it, he severely punished the man and immediately quit Hami, hoping that the Ming Dynasty His Majesty the Emperor is aware of this."
Zhu Di lazily said, "A young boy comes to ask for peace. Fortunately, Tuohuan can figure it out. If he comes in person, I might consider it."
He was too lazy to argue with a young man, so he stood up and dismissed him and left first.
But at this moment, Li Qing spoke first and said something that everyone present was confused about.
"Are you Choros Yexian, the grandson of Mahamu and the son of Tuhuan?"
Being called father or grandfather by name first made him feel angry, but he had to bow his head under the eaves.
"good!"
"Among your brothers, are you the only one named Ye first?"
He didn't know what Li Qing meant, but he could tell that this man had a high status in the Ming army, so he nodded lightly.
When Li Qing saw this, a smile appeared on his lips, there was no mistake now.
They've all been delivered to your door, so you have to 'treat' them well... Li Qing smiled even happier.
Somehow, he looked at Li Qing with a smile in his eyes first, and his heart went crazy. He always felt that this person had evil intentions, and thought to himself: Isn't this guy a good man?
Zhu Di also glanced at Li Qing in surprise, wondering what he was up to.
Li Qing said: "My Ming Dynasty is the most hospitable. Since you are here, don't leave... Ahem;
There is an old saying among the Han people: Once it comes, make peace with it; the matter of seeking peace should be considered in the long term. "
Isn't there an old saying among the Han people that he who knows the current affairs is a wise man... He was confused at first, but one thing he was sure of was that this masked man was not a good person.
He first raised his hands and said: "Please make a decision soon, Your Majesty. Now that our two armies are fighting, wouldn't it mean that the Tatars are reaping the benefits?"
He bypassed Li Qing and said to Zhu Di, "Your Majesty the Emperor, Tatars are known as Mongolian orthodoxies and their appeal on the grasslands is unparalleled. If Your Majesty the Emperor agrees to the surrender of Wala, Wala is willing to be a Ming eagle and watch over this evil wolf."
"Tatar?" Zhu Di smiled, "I just came from Tatar. Don't worry, they are not having a hard time now."
He felt a chill in his heart at first, and then his face became filled with bitterness.
If it is true as his father said, the Tatars could not escape the Ming Dynasty's beatings. It is true that when the Ming army went out to fight, every dog passing by would have to be slapped twice... I thought about it bitterly, but still refused to give up.
“Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, the Tatars’ ambitions and power are far beyond what Oara can match. We just want to live peacefully, but what they want is to unify the Mongolian grasslands and then march into the Central Plains;
Nowadays, Oara is in decline. Although the Tatars were defeated by the Ming warriors, their power is still ridiculously large. If Oara is seriously damaged, they will definitely devour Oara. "
Ye Xian said sincerely: "Your Majesty, you don't want to see Mongolia unified either, right?
As far as the Ming Dynasty is concerned, constant internal fighting in the grassland is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty, isn't it? "
Zhu Di's eyes narrowed, he looked deeply at the young man, and said to himself: "You can't keep this little wolf cub."
Zhu Di was already murderous here, but he was still talking non-stop on the other side, "Your Majesty the Emperor, we, Wala, are willing to protect the grassland for the Ming Dynasty and prevent the Tatars from getting bigger..."
"Yeah, that's good." Zhu Di nodded.
There was a joyful expression on Ye Xian's face, and then he heard words that made his hair stand on end.
"Drag it down and chop it!"
"His Majesty the Emperor is the most powerful person in the world, how could he be like this?" Ye Xian was horrified, "The two countries are at war and will not be killed..."
"Two countries?" Zhu Di became even more murderous, "How dare a small country like Ming Dynasty be on an equal footing with the Ming Dynasty?"
He also quickly changed his words: "I made a mistake. I apologize to His Majesty the Emperor."
After all, he is just a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old. How can he not be afraid of life and death?
While he was scared, he was also very angry. How could the emperor of Ming Dynasty be so worthless?
"Your Majesty the Emperor, I still have something to say." Ye tried his best to delay for a while, seeking a chance to survive, and said hypocritically, "You have to die if you let me die. However, I hope that Your Majesty the Emperor will let me die and understand how the Ming army will find it." Fuck us?"
"Then I'll make it clear to you." Zhu Di smiled: "It was the Tatar tribe that provided you with the information."
"Your Majesty, they are killing someone with a borrowed knife!" Ye Xian said immediately, "Uliangha and Tatar are ambiguous. If Oara suffers another heavy blow, then Mongolia will really be unified."
"Wuliangha?" Zhu Di frowned. Although he knew that this kid was begging for life, he was still a little worried.
It is simply impossible to kill all the people on the grassland. The best way is to weaken them and let them fight internally. But if Wala is hit too hard, the balance on the grassland will be broken.
Zhu Di's original idea was to attack Tatars first and Oara secondly, leaving Wu Liangha untouched and letting him join forces with Oara to resist the Tatars in order to survive.
The three forces on the grassland restrain each other and form a tripartite confrontation, but they cannot devour each other. This is the result Zhu Di wants to see.
But if Wu Liangha surrendered to the Tatars, the situation would be different.
"Come here, go and bring the Tatars down. Then what...bring Timur." Zhu Di wanted to ask clearly.
He breathed a sigh of relief first, but still didn't dare to be careless.
Not long after, Ashe Tiemur was brought into the camp by the guards.
Zhu Di got straight to the point: "Is Wu Liangha going to join the Tatars?"
"Ah? This..." Ashe Tiemur's face turned pale. He took another look at Ye Xian and realized that the secret had been exposed, so he bowed his head and said, "His Majesty the Emperor is aware that we were also forced. We are all Tatars." dressed leather……"
Barabara...
Zhu Di looked grim. He didn't expect that this question would reveal a shocking secret. Li Qing couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart.
Damn, I hit the wrong person.
"Shut up!" Zhu Di interrupted Ashe Tiemur's eloquence, suppressed his anger, and gritted his teeth and said, "I ask, you answer!"
After calming down his anger, Zhu Di asked: "Those who fought with the Ming army that night were all members of the three tribes of Wuliangha, right?"
Ashe Tiemur nodded anxiously, and when he was about to defend himself, Zhu Di asked again: "The captives, cattle, sheep, camels...are all from the three tribes of Uliangha?"
"Yes, it is."
Hearing this, Zhu Di's face became even more ugly, "In other words, in the battle that night, the Tatars were not damaged at all?"
"There should be some." Ashe Tiemur said bravely, "More than 20,000 Tatar cavalry broke out, so they must leave hundreds of them behind."
"You..." Zhu Di was angry.
Li Qing said: "That's not right. Although you Wuliangha are not as good as the Tatars and Oaras, you can still be considered a big tribe on the grassland. Why do you only have so few cattle, sheep, women and children?"
"The others were all robbed by the Tatars." Ashe Temür cried, "They are simply not human beings..."
~
A quarter of an hour later, Li Qing finally understood.
Under the guise of alliance with Ulyanha, the Tatars defrauded their tribesmen, warriors, cattle and sheep and all their property, and then moved their base camp to another place. Only more than 30,000 people were stationed in place, waiting for the Ming Dynasty to attack.
The purpose is to let Ming help them eliminate the elites of Ulliangha, and then completely annex Uliangha, kill people with a knife, and take the opportunity to grow stronger.
Not only that, the Tatars were bound to attack Oara after the Ming Dynasty defeated them, so they deliberately left some alive so that Oara would also suffer heavy losses from the Ming Dynasty.
Another murder with a borrowed knife!
Moreover, the Tatars were quite sure of the Uliangha who surrendered. They did not dare to reveal that it was Uliangha who was fighting the Ming army, so they could only surrender as a Tatar. In order to achieve meritorious service, they would also send information about Wala...
Li Qing finally understood why the previous battle was so unreasonable.
From beginning to end, it was a trap set up by the Tatars. What is even more frightening is that the Tatars started planning half a year ago. Even last year, the Tatars invaded the border area to pave the way.
This meticulous calculation... Li Qing had a creepy feeling.
"Where is the Tatar camp?" Zhu Di asked.
"His Majesty the Emperor, I... really don't know." Ashi Tiemur shook his head, "I only know where the Wala camp is. This was what Alutai told me."
"Bastard...!" Zhu Di was furious, "You don't even know where your own people have gone?"
"Minister..." Ashe Timur said sarcastically, "Alutai said that keeping it secret is for the safety of the clan."
Zhu Di was furious and wanted to kill this guy on the spot because this guy completely disrupted his plan.
Ye Xian was overjoyed. He understood that he could not die, and he also had the capital to negotiate.
"Your Majesty, please forgive this poor man." Ye Xian said respectfully, "Now the Tatars are powerful, and only Wala and Ulyanha join forces can barely compete with the Tatars.
Wala will do its best to help Wu Liangha, take back their people, weaken the Tatar power, and better resist the Tatars for the Ming Dynasty. "
Although he knew that Wala was not a good bird, Zhu Di had to consider this young boy's plan.
Because the unification of Mongolia was something he could never tolerate.
Zhu Di was not a person who looked forward and backward, so he immediately said: "Send the order, cease the war!"
After a pause, "Go and wait outside the tent, waiting to be sent."
Everyone bowed and left the camp.
Li Qing didn't leave because Zhu Di winked at him.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?"
"What else can be done? That boy is right, Mongolia must not be unified." Zhu Di sighed, "Although this expedition has weakened the power on the grassland to a great extent, it has also caused an imbalance. His mother of……"
Li Qing was more concerned about how to deal with it first. Wala had been beaten twice, and now his strength had been greatly reduced. As long as he killed this little brat, he believed that such a tragedy would not happen again in the future.
"Your Majesty, you can't keep that young man!" Li Qing was furious. "He is so scheming at a young age. If we don't kill him, if he becomes the leader of Wala in the future, he will definitely be a thorn in the side of the Ming Dynasty."
"Well, I think so too." Zhu Di agreed, "But...
You can't kill him openly. Now that the Tatars are powerful, Wala still needs to be appeased. Is there any way for him to die in an unexplained way without making people doubt that it was our Ming Dynasty who did it? "
Li Qing smiled slightly: "Yes!"
