  Chapter 639 The turning point of Ye Hebu's fate

   "Brother, I heard that Li Chengliang really fell ill this time. The Great Zhou court has allowed him to serve as an official, but his sons are still in Liaodong." The woman looked at her brother.

  After coming to the capital city for so long, Busia Mara has somewhat understood some things inside the Great Zhou court.

In the past, the people who hated Li Chengliang the most were none other than the four Haixi tribes like Yehe, Wula, Huifa, and Hada. If it weren't for Li Chengliang's unremitting support for Nurhachi, how could Jianzhou Jurchen be able to Relying on a few pairs of tattered armor to start a business, have today's weather?

  Now the Huifa and Hada tribes have long been wiped out and become Jianzhou Jurchens' dishes, while the Ula tribe is suffering from the frenzied attack of Jianzhou Jurchens and is on the verge of collapse.

  Of course Ye Hebu also understands the reason why the lips are dying and the teeth are cold, but Ye Hebu dare not take action to save Ulabu easily.

  If you have a map, you can see it. With the destruction of the Huifa and Hada tribes, the Jianzhou Jurchen has firmly controlled the entire key area of ​​the Songhua River bend, and it also poses a huge threat to the Yehe tribe.

The current Yehe tribe is no longer able to deal with the threat of the Jianzhou Jurchens alone, and since the war of the nine tribes more than ten years ago, the Horqin people have completely withdrawn from the alliance with the Hercynian tribes and began to remain neutral. But now it is said that Nurhachi has begun to send envoys to Horqin to make friends with the Horqin Zhubeiles. This is what worries the Yehe tribe most.

  Once the Horqin tribe changes its attitude and moves closer to the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe, the Yehe tribe will really suffer from the enemy, and there is only one way to perish.

  But in the past, no matter how Yehe and Ula complained to Dazhou Liaodong Town, which was supposed to be the arbitrator of this area, all they got was silence, which made Yehe and Ula extremely desperate.

   It wasn’t until a few months ago, when Jintaishi and Buyangu learned from a businessman who came here by chance that Li Chengliang, the governor of Jiliao and the commander-in-chief of Liaodong Town, that he was sick and unable to see things, did they see a glimmer of light.

  Without Li Chengliang, there would be no Jianzhou Jurchen today. This is the unanimous opinion of the leaders of the four Hercynian departments. It is a pity that there are only two of the four Hercynian departments left, but it is not too late.

   That's why they took the risk to sneak into the territory of Dazhou and came to the capital city of Dazhou, hoping to find support and help here.

"Well, that's the reason why we are here. Although Li Chengliang is gone, his sons still have great influence in Liaodong. Now Dazhou has not appointed a new governor of Jiliao and Liaodong Town's commander-in-chief. We It is necessary to find out who the next governor of Dazhou will be, what kind of person he is, and his attitude towards the Jianzhou Jurchen..."

Buyangu sighed softly. In fact, he is also very clear that the current Da Zhou may not have much ability to take many actions against the arrogant Jianzhou Jurchen. Even Da Zhou is aware of the ambition and danger of the Jianzhou Jurchen .

It is said that Dazhou fought a big battle last year because of the border rebellion in the west, and even the Mongolian right wing was involved. Dazhou was also hurt in this battle. Liaodong is more like Dazhou. As the officials and generals said, it is necessary to remain calm.

   But Dazhou can be calm, can Ye Hebu be calm? Can the Urabbe keep calm?

  The result of the tranquility of the town is that the Jianzhou Jurchens cannibalize the whales step by step. After solving the Wula tribe, it will be the turn of the Yehe tribe. Maybe this will happen within three to five years.

  The Yehe Ministry cannot sit still, this is the unanimous opinion of the adults in the Ministry.

Naturally, the Mongols can’t rely on it. The Yehe tribe has nothing to offer the Horqin people. Between the Jianzhou Jurchen and the Yehe tribe, the Horqin people will only choose the Jianzhou Jurchen who is in full swing, and Lindan Batu of Chahar Er is still a child with no hair yet, and the only one to rely on is Da Zhou.

   "Brother, can the fate of our Yehe tribe only be tied to Da Zhou?" Busia Mara couldn't help but rubbed the shiny black full moon scimitar in her hand.

   "Either we surrender to our father-killing enemy Nurhachi, let the Yehe tribe become history and become part of the Jianzhou Jurchen, or we can only rely on Dazhou..." Buyangu looked at his sister.

  From Daishang from the Hada tribe to Buzhantai from the Ula tribe, to Menggebulu from the Hada tribe and Baiyindari from the Huifa tribe, almost everyone who was betrothed to her suffered bad luck.

   "I will never marry my father-killing enemy, Yehebu must not lose to Jianzhou Jurchen!" Busia Mara said every word.

Buyangu shook his head. No one wants to lose, let alone perish. The Hada tribe is like this, the Huifa tribe is like this, and the Ula tribe is also the same. Why not be part of history?

   Just because the shaman in the tribe said that his sister "can prosper the world, but can perish the world"?

  It’s just a lie. So many words that the shaman said have not been realized. How can this sentence become so magical? Just because Busia Mara looks extraordinary?

   Seeing her elder brother staring at her fixedly, a little weird, Busia Mara pursed her lips, "What's the matter, brother, am I wrong?"

"No, Busia Mara, you are right, maybe Yehebu will disappear, but it shouldn't disappear in the hands of the Jianzhou Jurchen!" Buyangu also said in a deep voice: "So we must ask for Dazhou support and protection."

"But brother, didn't you also say that Da Zhou is too ambitious now? They have civil strife in the west, and they are still struggling with the Mongols. How can they have the energy to ask Liaodong?" Busia Mara was a little confused. There is a special magic in the husky voice.

   "At this time and at that time, Li Chengliang's thoughts may not necessarily be the thoughts of the next governor of Jiliao. Dazhou is so powerful, even if they only give us and the Wula tribe a little support, Jianzhou will not be as easy as it used to be."

  While the two were talking, a strong young man had brought several people into the house, "Buyangu, Buyangu!"

   "Dergler, what's wrong?"

   The person who came was Buyangu's cousin, and the son of Buyangu's uncle Jin Taishi, Delgler, a strong man with a broad face and thin eyebrows.

   "I got it, I got it, the Great Zhou court is said to be appointing a general named Feng Tang as governor of Jiliao..."

   "Feng Tang? Where are you from and what are you doing now?"

"I heard that he is from Datong, and now he is the general soldier of Yulin. He was the one who put down the rebellion in the west of Dazhou last year. The court of Dazhou intends to let him be the governor of Jiliao." Delgler raised his hand as soon as he entered the room. After gulping down a bowl of water and wiping the water stains under his jaw, he continued: "I was inquired about by the people from the Tuo Shan Shan Guild Hall."

The merchants of the Shanshan Guild Hall also have a business station in Liaodong, including the Yehe tribe. These merchants also come every year to collect cattle and horses, leather, gold sand, and medicinal materials, and bring salt, ironware, cotton cloth, and some porcelain and silk. Neither silk nor silk are urgently needed by Yehebu. Ironware and salt blocks are the most important, followed by cotton cloth.

  Buyangu was very disappointed, which meant that the upcoming governor of Jiliao was still in Yulin. Of course he knew where Yulin was. It was thousands of miles to the west, and he couldn't see it now.

   "Dergler, are you saying that it's just a possibility, this Feng Tang has not been officially appointed?"

Delgler nodded, "I heard that after Li Chengliang quit, the Great Zhou court has not selected suitable people. Some people are not willing to go, and some people are not qualified to go. It is said that this General Feng He was appointed as the governor of the three sides, um, the governor of the western border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was later prepared to go to Liaodong,..."

   "This person is still in Yulin now, brother, we can't go to Yulin, should we wait for him in this capital city? I don't know how long it will take." Busia Mara looked at her brother.

  Buyangu is also difficult to choose.

   It is undoubtedly too uncomfortable to continue to stay in this capital city, because they don't know when that General Feng will come to the capital city to accept the appointment, maybe a month, maybe three months, they can't wait here for a few months.

  But going to Yulin is unrealistic. They are thousands of miles away, and they are not familiar with the place. They are not even from Dazhou. Originally, they came to Jingshi City to do business with Dazhou merchants. Going to Yulin now will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

   "Buyangu, I got another news, that is, the home of General Feng Tang is in the capital city, and he has a son who is very famous, he is a famous scholar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he is very trusted by the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty..."

  Dergler's words made Buyangu frown, "Dergler, what do you want to say?"

   "I mean, maybe we can go to see General Feng's son, ask him for news, and see their attitude." Delgler seemed rough, but he was very careful.

"Then the son of General Feng is just an ordinary scholar. Well, even if he reads well, he can be valued by the Emperor of Zhou?" Buyangu didn't believe such a thing. What is the status of the Emperor of Zhou? How could he trust an ordinary scholar so much?

   "Here, the businessman didn't say anything. He only said that Mr. Feng seems to be an official of their highest school in Dazhou. It's not clear what he does exactly."

   This is already very difficult for Delgler. As soon as he got the news, he hurried back. He didn't expect his cousin to ask such detailed questions.

"Then go and ask! It doesn't matter if you spend more gold, anyway, we have come here, can we still bring these things back?" Buyangu waved his hand, "If it is really a scholar who is trusted by the Emperor of Zhou , and they are still officials, it means that the Feng family and his son are not simple, maybe the fate of our Yehe tribe will have a chance to change, then everything will be worth it!"
