Father can be an enemy to the country

The tragic fate of the two Wuliangha tribes made the Mongolian princes completely afraid to act rashly, and they stayed in Qingyun Mountain.

In March, the return to pulp period has arrived. The ground became soft and muddy, and every time there was a hole, it was difficult for the horses to walk up it, and the cart was completely unable to move.

All the Mongolian belongings were on carts. Moreover, spring is also the breeding season for livestock. The tribesmen have to graze and raise their young, and it is even more difficult to move at this time.

The Mongolian princes said to themselves, then just wait until spring...

Fortunately, after the Ming army captured Qingzhou and Horqin, they did not use any more troops. Instead, they focused on building castles on the grasslands, as if they wanted to settle here.

This made them feel a little uneasy. If this area of ​​Gyeongju was occupied by the Ming army for a long time, their space for activities would be greatly restricted. If they could only stay in the Northeast, all the cattle and sheep would be frozen to death in a few years. And they can’t go back to the Northeast now…

What made them even more upset was the arrival of a group of people.

~~

One day in late March, Naha went out to mediate disputes among the kings.

The reason for the dispute is still the fight for pasture. Although Naha sent a group of people to Daqingshan, the situation of too many monks and too little food has not changed much. The princes would bring lawsuits to him every three days, which made him extremely annoyed.

He couldn't ignore it, otherwise they would really fight. Although these guys were submissive to the Ming army, they were merciless and hit hard at their comrades.

Moreover, although this group of princes is headed by him, they all have their own subordinates and armies. They are not his employees, but shareholders, so Naha Chu cannot simply and crudely play fifty cards each.

I can only listen patiently to their quarrels, and then mediate with them when they are tired of arguing.

Just when he was doubting his life, the soldiers came in and reported that King Shen's men had caught several traitors.

"Oh?" Naha immediately shouted loudly: "Bring them to me!"

Then he said to the two princes who were quarreling red-faced: "I have something urgent. You two should go back and calm down for a few days, and then I will deal with the ranch affairs for you."

The two of them had no choice but to leave in frustration, cursing Naha in their hearts for making random excuses to get rid of them. However, when they saw the traitors brought in when they went out, the two of them immediately became furious and rushed towards them to kill them.

"Narawu, you still have the nerve to come back!"

They have already guessed that the fact that they were blocked by the Ming army in Qingyun Mountain and could not return home was closely related to Nailawu's defection to the Ming Dynasty last winter.

The Yuan army escorting Nailawu and others quickly stopped the two angry princes. Huletu, who was following behind, said in a deep voice: "You two, please save it. If I can kill them, will I still leave it to you?"

"Why can't we kill him?" the two princes asked angrily.

"They are now the commander of the Ming army, Qian Hu, the envoy of the general of the Ming Dynasty." Huletu said: "If the Taiwei doesn't give the order, who dares to touch them?"

"Hmph!" The two men sheathed their knives angrily, and said with lingering anger: "If the Lieutenant doesn't kill him later, don't blame us for disobeying the order!"

"Come in quickly." Huletu Quan pretended not to hear and urged Nailawu and others.

~~

Naila and I went into the king's tent, but they were inevitably picked up by Naha again.

"Nailawu, Nailawu, when you fled from Guan Nei to the Northeast, you couldn't even eat, and you almost died of typhoid fever." Naha pointed at Nailawu and cursed: "I cured you. I still entrust you with a heavy responsibility, and this is how you repay me?"

"I have never forgotten the great kindness that the king showed to Nailawu." Nailawu said loudly with his hands tied behind his back: "Otherwise I would not have risked my life to come back this time!"

"Hmph, that's nice to say." Naha laughed and said, "Aren't you here for the high official and generous salary promised to you by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

"Of course it has a little to do with it." Nailawu said with a smile: "But the main reason is to save the king and hundreds of thousands of compatriots!"

"Haha, aren't you just trying to recruit me to surrender for the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" Naha sneered: "It's because of too many traitors like you that our Dayuan ended up in this situation."

"Your Majesty, you should first listen to the terms of the Ming Dynasty. They are absolutely generous beyond imagination!" Nailawu said with confidence.

"I won't listen. Even a single word will dirty my ears!" When Naha said this, he glanced at Huletu with his peripheral vision and said with a straight face: "If you are just asking for surrender, you should shut up as soon as possible. Mouth!"

"Lieutenant, you have been surrounded by 400,000 heavenly soldiers. This time, five of the Great Mingguang Princes have arrived, and there are countless Dukes and Lords, all of whom are elite!" Upon seeing this, Nailawu said forcefully:

"After the two consecutive defeats of Horqin in Qingzhou, the Taiwei should know that I am not exaggerating. The Ming Dynasty is determined this time to deal with Can Yuan's power in the northeast. With Taiwei's current strength, competing with the Ming Dynasty is like hitting an egg against a stone. , You can’t go against the will of heaven, Lieutenant!”

"Shut up, you traitor!" Naha retorted with all his hair and hair: "I have a cloud of fierce generals under my command, commanding 200,000 strings. They share the same hatred and are united in their will. I don't know who it is that is attacking the stone with an egg!"

"Hahaha, do you believe this, Taiwei?" Nailawu said with a smile:

"The Taiwei said that I am a traitor, forgive me for not accepting it! As the saying goes, 'Destiny is constant, and all countries have been destroyed since ancient times.' The Yuan Dynasty that I am loyal to has been dead for nineteen years, and I have been a filial piety for it for nineteen years. Who dares to say Am I a traitor to Dayuan?”

As he spoke, he slowed down and said: "The same is true for the Taiwei! Now that the great vitality has been exhausted and the destiny is in the Ming Dynasty, why bother to continue to go against the will of heaven? It is better to comply with the destiny as early as possible and still not lose the high official salary..."

"Shut up!" Hearing that he was about to raise the conditions for his recruitment, Naha became angry and said: "You traitor caused me to lose Qingzhou and Horqin, and ended up in this situation! If the two armies hadn't fought, I wouldn't have killed the envoy. , I will cut your body into six pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart!"

After a pause, he added: "But I won't kill you, and I can't give you an advantage." Then he ordered the soldiers in a deep voice: "Push them out, and give each of them eighty lashes!"

"Yes!" The soldiers pushed Nailawu and others out of the tent, pinned them to the ground in public, picked up their whips and started beating them.

Listening to the sound of whips crackling outside the tent, Naha Chuyou said angrily: "It's too easy for him!"

"Captain, calm down." Huletu advised: "Killing brings bad luck. Killing Nailawu will do no good except venting your anger. It will only do harm."

"Alas, even you said that, it seems this is the only way." Naha sighed regretfully. Then he shouted to the outside: "If they are still alive after the beating, lock them up, don't give them medical treatment, and let them die on their own!"

"Yes!" the soldiers responded loudly, whipping harder.

But I don’t know whether it was because the quality of his whip was poor, or because Nailawu and his gang were too resistant to being beaten. In the end, no one died, and they were all locked up in the tent.

In addition, Nailawu was held in solitary confinement.
