Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 146 The Swordsman

Chapter 146 The Swordsman
In the military tent, there was silence.

Tuotuo Buhua looked at this seemingly soft but sharp Ming envoy with great interest, and did not answer him.

In things like peace talks, whoever surrenders first will suffer.

Since the other party took the initiative to come to the door, the initiative is naturally in his hands.

Anyway, he has plenty of time, so he can slowly grind with them a little bit.

A gust of cold wind blew the heavy fur curtain door of the big tent, and a few snowflakes were wrapped by the cold wind and blown into the big tent.

It fell on the warm plush carpet and soon turned into snow water.

Wang Wen sat down again, looked at the tiny snowflakes, and said with a smile.

"Khan, this year's snow came much earlier than before."

"The grassland tribes live by grazing animals. The snow came so early. I'm afraid this winter, the life of the shepherds will be difficult, right?"

Tuotuobuhua's expression sank.

Although he knew it was intentional, he still said coldly.

"It's all thanks to Daming!"

When this matter was brought up, Tuotuobuhua's anger rose in bursts.

God knows why this group of officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty went so mad that they ran to the grassland to plunder in an organized way.

The tribes on the grassland are of course all soldiers.

But every young and strong warrior has been called up to fight.

Second, after all, they herd animals for a living.

Facing the well-equipped and well-organized Ming Dynasty army, how can they resist?

Killing, setting fire, robbing cattle and sheep, except for some indescribable things, they did everything they could.

At the beginning, the entire small tribe was slaughtered, and later, they deliberately left some old and weak women and children.

This winter, the Mongolian ministries are far from being so simple, it is simply making things worse.

More importantly, although Tuotuobuhua is nominally the co-owner of various tribes in Mongolia, he can only control the Tatar headquarters.

The gang of hateful Ming soldiers, whether it was intentional or not, they all killed them at the beginning, but in the end there will always be some women, children, old and weak left behind.

Perhaps this is a benevolent act in Daming.

But on the grassland, Tutuobuhua was caught in a dilemma.

He and Ye Xian didn't get along at all, and both of them were wary of each other.

So even if the army is going out, the logistics will be handled by their respective tribes.

After all, this is the lifeline of the army, and it is impossible for them to hand it over to the other party's tribe.

Yexian also has many tribes besides Wala, but Tuotuo does not spend here, only the Tatar headquarters.

Originally, the logistical pressure was great, but now the Ming army looted again, and those old and weak women and children who could not survive went to the big tribes one after another.

In order to reduce the logistical pressure, Wala basically would not accept these people, so most of them defected to Tatar.

As the co-owner of the Mongolian ministries, Tuotuobuhua can't ignore it.

Now, the food, cattle and sheep that were originally stored are becoming more and more insufficient.

With a gloomy face, Tuotuobuhua said in a cold voice.

"You allow Daming's officers and soldiers to plunder everywhere, but do you know how many old and weak people will freeze to death and starve to death this winter? Is this how Daming practices the way of saints because he claims to be a state of etiquette?"

Compared with Tutuo Buhua's anger, Wang Wen was much calmer.

The negotiation between the two parties depends on who can hold back more.

Whether the other party is hysterical or Piri Yangqiu, it is better than not showing any emotions at all.

Let's bow again, Wang Wendao.

"Khan's words are wrong. My Ming Dynasty has never condoned the looting of the officers and soldiers. Now that the Khan and the grand master are overwhelming the country, it is too late for the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty to deploy defenses. How dare we take the initiative to attack?"

"The Mongolian tribes were plundered, and maybe other tribes were disguised. After all, Khan said that the grassland tribes have a hard time in winter."

It's one thing to do something, but quite another to say it.

At least at this moment, Wang Wen would never admit that Daming secretly sent an army to plunder the small and medium-sized tribes in the grassland.

Tuotuobuhua almost slapped the table.

A long time ago, he always heard from his father that the scholars in the pass were the most shameless.

Today can be regarded as seeing.

This ability to hit back and forth really made him amazed.

According to his feelings, is this an infighting among the Mongolian tribes?
With a cold snort, a murderous look appeared on Tuotuo Buhua's face.

"Officials from Ming Dynasty, don't challenge Ben Khan's bottom line."

"The Mongolian tribes who believe in longevity, even if they want to start a tribal war, it is a contest between warriors, and they will not use such despicable means."

"What's more, those teams who looted the tribes were well-equipped and carried waist knives and firecrackers that could only be produced by the Ming Dynasty. How could these be something that Mongolian tribes can have?"

Facing Tuotuo Buhua's murderous questioning, Wang Wen didn't speak, but Wang Ao sneered and said.

"A battle between warriors? When you crossed the border at night and robbed the people of our Daming, didn't you believe in your Longevity?"

"Don't think we don't know. During the civil engineering work, how much military equipment and equipment you took away from Daming, maybe it's your own army, changed its appearance, and then planted it on Daming?"

There was a "bass".

Tuotuo Buhua stood up abruptly, and drew out the scimitar in his hand.

"Old man, do you really think that Ben Khan dare not kill you?"

The atmosphere became tense again, and with Tuotuobuhua's movements, a group of Mongolian soldiers gradually surrounded him.

At this time, Wang Wen spoke.

"Khan calm down, you and I don't know the truth, it's all just guesswork, not to mention that Khan is a sensible person, even if it is true as Khan said, our Ming army acted without authorization, it is still a war between the two armies, As a last resort."

Tuotuo Buhua sat down slowly, his face still dark.

In the end, Daming just wouldn't admit that he really sent an army to rob.

This negotiation has been going on until now, and both sides have felt the other side's trickiness and cunning.

Under Yexian's covetousness, Tuotuobuhua has been able to sit on the throne for so many years, not only because of the words "descendants of the golden family".

His anger just now was real, but more, it was to further gain a favorable position for negotiations.

The so-called negotiation is nothing more than saying that one is right and the other party is not, so as to obtain the greatest benefit.

But being so disturbed by Wang Ao, this matter has become an unreasonable mess.

Therefore, at this point, both parties have raised another level of attention to each other in their hearts.

Sitting down again, the atmosphere in the big tent was still very tense.

So Wang Wen said.

"Khan, Ming and Tatars have always been friendly and have not started a war for many years. Although the two armies are at war now, it should be no harm to the common people."

"Before I came here, I had agreed with Cao Yi, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, to prepare [-] carts of grain, [-] bolts of silk, [-] catties of tea, and [-] pieces of iron pots and iron utensils. I hope Khan can do it. Laughing."

Tuotuobuhua was stunned for a moment, you know how you feel, now the two armies are at war?
To send luggage to the enemy army, and it is still urgently needed supplies on the grassland?Are you sick in your head?
But don't reject the things delivered to your door for nothing, Tuotuobuhua said with a smile on his face.

"Your envoy has this intention, Ben Khan will naturally not refuse, but I don't know where these things are now? Ben Khan will order someone to take them over."

Wang Wen still had a warm smile on his face, and said.

"It's in Liaodong City. If Khan doesn't dislike it, he can go there in person, and Cao Zongbing will hand it over to Khan."

Tuotuo Buhua's face was a bit ugly, and he said lazily: "Is it necessary for Ben Khan to go for a little supplies?"

Wang Wen asked back: "Is it possible that Khan dare not?"
