The general trend is like a tide, and you can only go with it.
Yanji can accept surrender to any Mongolian tribe, but he has some grudges deep in his heart about surrendering to the Ming Dynasty, but this grudge will not affect Yanji's reason.
Princess Samuel looked at the slowly approaching Ming army with a serious expression on her face.
It was obvious that they were elite cavalry, and the light reflected from their armor was difficult to look directly at. The weapons in these people's hands were not sabers, but three-eyed fire blunderbuss, a mysterious and deadly firearm.
Bagam took a step forward, stood next to Princess Samur, and asked in a low voice: "Mother, the Wara tribe is undefended. If the Ming army suddenly orders a charge, wouldn't it mean that the tribe will be wiped out in an instant?"
Princess Samuel shook her head, raised her hand to tuck a strand of hair from the corner of her eyes behind her ears, and said firmly: "Da Ming would not do this."
Bagamu frowned slightly: "But when wolves deal with sheep..."
In nature, there is not so much compassion and mercy. Once given the opportunity, he will definitely beat the opponent to the point of collapse.
With a straight face, Tupolo said solemnly: "Wala, fortified or not, is a weak lamb to the Ming Dynasty. Bagamu, the power of the Ming Dynasty has exceeded your imagination. In the near future, you will I experienced the meaning of being powerful in Peiping. For a long time, many Wara people have compared the Ming Dynasty to a wolf. This is an insult to the Ming Dynasty and is also our ignorance."
Bagamu looked at Tupolo and said, "I want to stay in the grassland, a free eagle, with the sky in my hand."
Princess Samuel tugged on Bagamu's folded skirt and said with a smile: "When the sky cannot make the goshawk become powerful, then you need to let the goshawk land on the top of the mountain and think about what to do in the future. You Remember, the grassland is not afraid of dispersion, and no one can break the bonds of blood. The dispersed tribesmen will one day reunite again. But before that, you need to become strong."
Bagam was worried.
Tupolo glanced at Bagam and said calmly: "Your father Mahamu is such a proud man. When he boarded the train for the first time, he was almost trembling and speechless. It's not that Mahamu didn't want to Come back, but he hopes to spend the rest of his life to pry into the powerful secrets of the Ming Dynasty. When he signed the document of surrender, he proposed to let the clan members join the Imperial Academy to practice. Think about it, with your father’s wisdom, why did you make the decision to break the wings? Chang Kong’s decision?”.
Bagam didn't know what a train was, or even what a steam engine was.
But whether it was Tupolo or the news brought by his father's entourage, they all made a common voice:
Ming Dynasty is powerful and invincible.
People who have been to the Ming Dynasty have no objection to surrendering to the Ming Dynasty.
Bagam lowered his head.
The strength of the Ming Dynasty may not be as simple as firearms.
In the final analysis, war is decided by people, not weapons. The cavalry is not incapable of fighting firearms. As long as they plan their strategy properly and strike like lightning before the enemy has time to use their firearms, they can still be wiped out.
However, Ming Dynasty never gave its opponents such a chance.
What my father meant was that the Imperial Academy contained the knowledge and wisdom that made Ming Dynasty powerful, and he hoped that he would follow him to the Imperial Academy. This is not the future that Bagam wants, but he has to accept this arrangement.
While he was talking, Qu Neng's army was approaching.
Fifty steps away, Qu Neng ordered the army to stop.
The silent army in the iron stream stands like a wall on the grassland. When the wind blew and the grass fell, not only cattle and sheep were found, but also armor, muskets, longbows, and blades...
Even though they came to accept surrender, Ming's army was still ready to fight.
Oala didn't trust Daming, and Ming couldn't trust Oala. Without one party completely eliminating the other's worries, they could only be fully armed.
Qu Neng stepped forward single-handedly, sitting on the horseback, looking at the prey proudly like a brave leopard. His sharp gaze disappeared in an instant. Qu Neng got off his horse, clasped his fists and said: "Qu Neng, the commander of the Ming Dynasty's Western Xinjiang Province, , came under the emperor’s will, to forge a lasting friendship between the Ming Dynasty and Wala, and to eliminate the weapons on the grassland.”
You still need to give face, you can’t just come up and say:
If you surrender, kneel down and lick me to see.
Tupolo had seen Qu Neng, but the last time he only knew that Qu Neng was here, but did not see Qu Neng, was the defeat of Daxue in Qamdo. This guy actually mobilized elite soldiers out of the city in the snowy night to proactively seek combat. He took care of all the outlying sentries, so that the army was unprepared and encountered the black iron gift falling from the sky.
Facing this old acquaintance who had not seen each other often, he returned Tupolo's courtesy: "Commander Qudu's visit will bring eternal peace, friendship will not deceive, and we will be as close as a family. From now on, no weapons will be used against the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty." They are the soldiers and civilians of Oara. The 340,000 Oara tribesmen surrendered to the Celestial Empire, put down their weapons, corralled their horses, and obeyed the care and placement of the Celestial Empire..."
Qu Neng looked deeply at Batu Polo. The reason why he insisted on marrying Daming was not because he was weak and confused. On the contrary, he was a very strong and sober person.
He clearly understood the strength gap between Oara and Ming Dynasty, and also knew what the consequences would be if a war started.
Qu Neng showed an admiring smile on his face and said slowly: "King Anle's ability to promote the good relationship between Wala and the Ming Dynasty has benefited countless soldiers and civilians, and will definitely leave a deep mark in the annals of history. When his grandson read this chapter, he I will definitely say: Peace begins with King Anle and you all.”
Tupolo chuckled, not caring much about his posthumous name, and introduced to Qu Neng: "This is Princess Samuel, Henji."
Princess Samuel and Yanji saluted.
Qu Neng returned the favor, and after talking to Princess Samuel, he looked at Yi Ji: "The emperor said in his decree that Yi Ji is a woman of great wisdom, and he really wanted to meet her, and he specifically asked me to ask. Does Ji Ji have any preferences to prepare for the reception?"
Yan Ji understood Zhu Yunwen's intention. He was simply afraid that he would stay on the grassland and continue to control and influence the Oara tribe by using power and tactics.
Controlling this thing requires distance. Everyone who herds cattle knows that it is beyond reach. Although Zhu Yunwen does not herd cattle, he has bought a lot of wool, so he knows much more than he expected.
Leaving Wala was no longer an option, and Henji was not worried about the future. As Mahamu said, the core of the Ming Dynasty was in the Imperial College, and the royal family and nobles of Wala were authorized to arrange for their descendants to enter the Imperial College to study.
I left in order to come back, so I thought I was going south hunting.
Yanji hid all her dissatisfaction and sadness and smiled sweetly: "I am just a little girl, how dare I bother the Ming Emperor with questions. Please also ask Qudu to tell the emperor that I have no preference. I just hope that the Wara people are safe."
Qu Neng chuckled. This woman was as dangerous as Mahamu. Mahamu was ruthless in the open, but Yanji was secretly plotting. The emperor specifically emphasized in his decree that this person must leave Oara, which showed that the court was quite wary of her existence.
"Come into camp."
Turn Buluo sideways and point to the camp in the distance.
Qu Neng handed the war horse to Zhao Tong, who was following him, and issued an order: "Put the sword into the scabbard, hang the musket on the saddle, return the arrow to the pot, and control the horse to move slowly. No one is allowed to ride the horse, intimidate, or bully! If there is any violation of the order, Those who do, will be punished by military law!"
"Have an order!"
Zhao Tong shouted.
The herald ran to the military formation and conveyed the order again and again.
Seeing this scene, the worries in Tupolo, Princess Samuel, Yan Ji and others finally dissipated.
These people did not bring any weapons, not even horses, in order to tell Qu Neng that Wala had surrendered, and there was no second intention. You just need to accept the surrender. There is no need to engage in tricks to establish power by killing people.
Qu Neng understood.
The reason why we brought so many elites, fully armed and equipped with firearms, was to avoid falling into a trap and being bitten unprepared. Now that they have completely surrendered, there is no need to kill anyone.
Although Qu Neng's order seems to be unprepared and contains huge omissions, the firecrackers can be taken out and used at will. Once an unexpected situation occurs, they can take the lead. Qu Neng didn't want anything to go wrong during the surrender phase.
The Oara people came out of their yurts one after another. The old man looked miserable, the woman wept, the young man lowered his head, and the eleven or twelve-year-old children already understood what was about to happen, and their stubborn eyes showed
The light was full of unwillingness. Only the younger children did not know what the arrival of the Ming army would bring. They were just a little scared and hid behind the adults watching the approaching Ming army.
In the huge fences, countless sturdy horses neighed, as if eager for battle. The reins were firmly tied to the wooden fence. The wooden fence was nailed to the ground, and the soil turned out looked like the grassland was bleeding.
The Ming army began to set up camp. They moved very quickly. One cart after another moved forward, took off the long iron drill from the cart, and then swung the hammer to smash the iron drill into the ground. Between the carts and the carts There are strange iron rods connecting them, and they are firmly connected with just a light touch.
The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were neat and orderly. Everyone knew their position and what they were responsible for. The entire camp was rhythmic and orderly, without any chaos, noisy or noisy.
These sergeants seemed to be simply executing orders, coldly and silently, showing no personal emotions.
Bagamu looked at Daming's camp with indescribable sadness in his eyes. I have to admit that the Ming army is indeed powerful, and its military discipline alone is much better than that of Wala.
When Bagam was grieving and arranged for Tupolo, and the people of the Oara tribe gathered quickly, in an inconspicuous yurt, a boy of thirteen or fourteen dug out the longbow and arrow pot that his mother had buried in the soil, and tried it. Try out the bowstring, then sling the quiver on your back.
How can we not avenge the murder of our father?
If you want to surrender, go ahead and surrender. I, Hongdege, will never surrender!
I heard that the Ming Dynasty sent a great general to accept the surrender, and also wanted to resettle the Oara tribe separately.
No, absolutely not!
His father died on the battlefield for Wala. If he knew that Wala would kneel down and worship the Ming Dynasty, he would probably fight his way out of hell.
I want to kill Qu Neng, avenge my father, and fight for Wala!
