After listening to Saisang's words, the elder of the Borzigit family agreed with him, and made the same opinion, including a reason for the Horqin tribe not wanting to fight.

"I agree with the uncle's opinion. We should meet this team of Daming envoys first, and ask them clearly what their purpose in coming to the Horqin Prairie is to make plans. After all, a fight between the Horqin tribe and Daming will hurt both sides, and it will be of no benefit to anyone. It may be in vain. Let the Jianzhou Jurchens take advantage of it."

After listening to the words of the elder Borzigit, some of them echoed, even though they knew that the Horqin tribe could not defeat the Ming army, they still wanted to put the Horqin tribe soldiers on the same plane as the Ming army that had only arrived in the Horqin prairie superior.

"agree."

"agree."

The elder of the Borzigit family, seeing most of the relatives nodding in agreement, felt relieved. For the prosperity of the Horqin tribe, this is the most sensible choice.

At least, without knowing the purpose of the Ming army coming to the Horqin Prairie, the Horqin tribe can't have any conflicts, especially the Ming army that defeated the Jianzhou Jurchen.

So as not to cause the Horqin tribe to reproduce the tragedy of the Jianzhou Jurchens under the city of Shenyang.

When he looked at the Mongolian man who had just fallen, and saw that the Mongolian man hesitated to speak, he knew that his nephew had a different view.

In order not to let him spoil the meeting with the envoy of Ming Dynasty, the elder Borzigit pointed at the Mongolian man and warned: "Be honest later, otherwise, the tribes under your command will be reduced and included in other tribes." In my dear name."

The reduction of tribes is regarded as the worst punishment for the Horqin tribe, and even for all Mongolian tribes. After all, the size of the population determines the strength of a Mongolian tribe leader, and also determines whether the leader can enjoy more offerings from the tribe.

So, when the Mongolian man heard that his elders wanted to reduce his tribe, he immediately calmed down, and quickly said: "Uncle, I dare not, I will tie my mouth when I get out of the king's tent, and dare not say a word. "

In order to better enjoy the noble life, the Mongolian man assured him with wit.

"It's better to really tie it up." After the elder of the Borzigit family finished speaking, he turned to look at Saisang and said, "Saisang, among the leaders of the Horqin tribe, only you know the Han people in the Central Plains best. It is better to see the envoy of the Ming Dynasty in a short time, and you will be the spokesperson of the Horqin Department to talk to the envoy of the Ming Dynasty."

"Yes, Saisang, you are the one who speaks Chinese the best here."

"Yes, the Chinese spoken by Saisang sometimes sounds more similar to those Ming people who came to the Horqin Grassland."

"Saisan, you will be the temporary speaker of the Horqin Department."

...

Saisang saw that all the relatives present expressed their views in this way. For the Horqin tribe and the Borzigit family, he could only reluctantly say: "In this case, Saisang will replace the Horqin tribe and meet the Ming envoy. .”

After finishing speaking, he said to his son Wu Keshan, who was silent all the time, "Lead the way ahead, and I will meet with the Ming Dynasty envoys with your elders."

"Okay, father." Without any hesitation, Wu Keshan immediately turned around and left the king's tent, so as not to move too slowly and make his father Saisang wrong again.

When Sai Sang and others saw Wu Keshan leaving the king's tent, they quickly followed and went to meet them. According to legend, the Ming army that killed 12 Jurchen Eight Banners in Shenyang City.

Chapter 3 To go or not to go (two in one)

The men of the Borzigit family.

It is also on the Horqin prairie, the leaders of the Horqin tribe, as the rulers of the place known as the "bow maker" in Mongolian, the Borzigit clan has been multiplying here for a long time.

As a branch of the Golden Family, the Borzigit clan in the Horqin Prairie has always wanted to continue the glory brought to them by their ancestors, and they dare not lose this fief that belongs to them.

In order not to lose this piece of Borzigit's fiefdom, the Horqin Prairie, the Borzigit family thought of a way to marry with the surrounding forces.

In the end, the Borzigit family fell in love with the little brother who had just risen aside, the Jianzhou Jurchen led by the Aixinjueluo family, which was also known as a nation that grew up on horseback.

Although the Jianzhou Jurchen looked very thin at that time, they were full of the same warlike genes as the ancestors of the Jin family, which made the Borzigit clan on the Horqin Prairie see another way to rise.

This method is to take advantage of the weak strength of the Jianzhou Jurchen brother around him, and the two families will form an alliance to help the Jianzhou Jurchens rise, and at the same time transform the bloodline of the Jianzhou Jurchens ruling class, so that those who rule the Jianzhou Jurchens The descendants of the Aixinjueluo family all have the blood of the Borzigit family flowing on their bodies.

Originally, this plan was very successful and smooth. The rapid development and strength of the Jianzhou Jurchens also exceeded the expectations of the Horqin Department. victory.

In order to better strengthen the relationship with the Jianzhou Jurchen, the leaders of the Horqin Department, Borzigit married another young and beautiful queen of Horqin to the Jianzhou Jurchen, expecting to sweat for the Jianzhou Jurchen Give birth to a successor, so as to achieve a better effect of transforming the ruling class of Jianzhou Jurchen, so that the Horqin tribe and Jianzhou Jurchen are truly inseparable.

However, this sweet dream was shattered by an unexpected surprise attack.

The Horqin tribe never imagined that the neighboring Daming, who had been beaten by the Jianzhou Jurchen and was trapped inside the Great Wall, would one day, take advantage of the approach of winter, brazenly rush out of the Great Wall that blocked them, go out of Shanhaiguan, and surprise the Jianzhou Jurchen The capital of Shenyang, Shenyang City.

Judging from the previous situation, even if the Borzigit family knew about Daming’s surprise attack on Shenyang City, they would not take it seriously. State Jurchen compared.

What's more, what the Ming army has to do this time is to surprise the Jianzhou Jurchen capital Shenyang City. From the perspective of the odds of winning, it is even more impossible to fight against the Jianzhou Jurchen.

No one thought that sometimes, the reality is so unimaginable. The Ming army not only attacked Shenyang City of Jianzhou Jurchen, but also won an unprecedented victory in the capital of Jianzhou Jurchen.

Hitting the Horqin Department was too late, and disrupted all the original plans, so that these Borzigit men had to gather in the king's tent to re-examine the Ming Dynasty that had been in power for more than 200 years, and how to deal with it. Neighbor Jianzhou Jurchen relationship.

What they didn't expect was that when the Horqin tribe hadn't figured out how to deal with Daming's resurgence, Daming sent troops to the Horqin Grassland, just like how 200 years ago, Daming drove the Golden Family out of the Central Plains and re-emerged. It's the same as driving out of the Great Wall.

More than 200 years later, Daming once again came to the Horqin Prairie to find the descendants of the Golden Family, the Horqin tribe led by the Borzigit clan.

As if history will repeat itself again, the Ming army will drive them away from the Horqin prairie where they have lived for generations, just like the ancestors of the Borzigit family.

...

After leaving the king's tent, the leaders of the Horqin tribe, led by Sai Sang and led by Wu Keshan, walked quickly towards the yurt where the group of envoys from the Ming Dynasty who came to the Horqin tribe was located.

Along the way, everyone was silent. These men who can call the shots of the Borzigit family knew that this meeting may herald the survival of the Horqin tribe, and it is also related to whether they can enjoy the aristocratic life today. Still maintain the throne of the Horqin Prairie.

Walking in front, Wu Keshan, who was in charge of pointing the direction, saw that the destination was about to arrive, so he turned his head to his father and the elders who were following behind, and said, "Abba, elders, the group of envoys from the Ming Dynasty who came to Horqin is waiting here." Inside the felt tent in front."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to a slightly larger felt tent not far ahead.

Hearing this, Sai Sang and the others who were following looked up, and just as Wu Keshan said, they also saw the yurt.

At this time, more than a dozen war horses were tethered outside the yurt. The whole body of the war horses was covered with armor inlaid with iron plates, and only the eyes of the war horses were exposed in the entire armor.

This kind of armor for horses, not to mention the Horqin tribe, is hard to see in the entire Mongolian tribe, because it is too extravagant. Iron is a very scarce resource for the Mongolian tribe. It is used to make the swords and armors of Mongolian warriors. How can they be used on war horses? Only the Ming people in the Central Plains would be so extravagant to put armor on their war horses. After all, the Central Plains is a place that lacks war horses.

On the prairie, it is just the opposite. Mongolian warriors never lack horses. On the prairie, wild horses are often seen migrating with the grass. As long as you want a war horse of your own, then go for it With your own bravery, go to the wild horse herd to tame your own war horse. As long as you can tame it, it belongs to your private property.

Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Saisan once again set his sights on the dozen or so armored horses. With his Mongolian habit of getting along with horses all the year round, even if he is a prince, he can tell at a glance that these dozen or so horses are full of armor. All war horses are of the best breed.

Having reached this conclusion, he turned his attention to the yurt again, thinking of the team of Daming envoys, he knew that the Daming people who could ride such horses must be the elite of the Ming army.

According to legend, in the Central Plains, putting armor on war horses is generally called heavy cavalry by the Han people, and it is also the elite of the cavalry.

Seeing these things, he knew that the Ming army at the edge of the Horqin Prairie must be the heavy cavalry army of the Ming Dynasty.

No longer hesitating, Sai Sang took the lead and walked towards the tent. Wu Keshan who was on the side saw his father and elders all heading towards the tent, and his task was completed. He didn't know whether to follow up or leave, but he was still curious Driven by his heart, he followed behind to the yurt.

.....

...

Outside the felt tent.

As soon as Saisang lifted the curtain, before he entered the felt tent, his voice came in first: "Haha, the Horqin Department welcomes the arrival of the envoy of Ming Dynasty, and Saisangte is here to welcome you."

After finishing speaking, he heard the sound of armor in the felt tent and the sound of colliding with iron blades, and he thought to himself, the group of Ming envoys in the felt tent were, as he expected, all the elite of the Ming army. , I went to the Horqin Department wearing armor.
