Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

"Great Khan, all the spies from the Thirteen Yamen of the pseudo-Qing Dynasty in the city have been eliminated. The two leaders fled outside the city with dozens of their subordinates. As per your instructions, I will not touch them for the time being," Hada, the head of the Wuyi Guard, respectfully reported to the Great Khan Lianhua in the Feilong Pavilion behind the Qianyuan Palace.

"You did a good job. Save these people's lives first. I still have a use for them," Sultan sneered.

"I did not expect those traitors to dare to cause chaos. Please punish them, Great Khan." Hada knelt down and pleaded guilty. In fact, the Wuyi Guards had long noticed the strangeness of the Manchu spies and some of the Eight Banners dignitaries in the city, and reported it to the Great Khan a few days ago. However, the Great Khan did not expect that the thirteen yamens were so bold that they dared to assassinate him and start a rebellion, and wanted to use these thieves to release false information to the Qing court, so he ignored it, which led to a disaster. Hada's plea was actually for the Supreme.

"The Wuyi Guards got the intelligence very timely. I underestimated the enemy." Sultan was very moved. It was hard to find such a loyal minister who took responsibility for his master. He asked slowly, "Have you found out the identities of the enemy spies in Shenyang and the surrounding areas?"

"I have already found out the aliases and hiding places of those spies clearly, and I will close the net as soon as the time is right," Hada, as his close confidant, replied hurriedly.

"Well, you did a great job. But openly, I still have to punish you severely, otherwise those guys will definitely become suspicious. I'm sorry to have wronged you."

"Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor. I am willing to die for the Khan, so how can I complain?" Hada expressed his loyalty generously.

Sultan was very satisfied. The Wuyi Guard had great power, but Hada was still as cautious as before and had never deceived him. This made him very satisfied. He smiled and said, "You have worked really hard these days. Go down and have a rest first."

"Yes".

Soon, an imperial decree was issued that Erke, the Duke of Lu who was in charge of the defense of Shenyang, was fined for three months for failing to suppress the rebellion; Hada, the head of the Wuyi Guard, was demoted from the first-class Kizilhou to the second-class Kizilhou for failing to learn of the treacherous party's rebellion in time; and an imperial decree was issued to thoroughly investigate the Eight Banners personnel who participated in the rebellion, confiscate their property, behead them, and send their families to Nurgan as border guards. The emperor was furious, and millions of corpses were buried and blood flowed everywhere. Soon, more than a thousand heads fell to the ground, and more than 6,000 people were exiled from Shenyang to Ningguta. By confiscating the property of the rebels, David's treasury had more than a million taels of rebellious property, which greatly eased the financial pressure.

When the emperor is angry, millions of people will die and blood will flow everywhere. It is impossible for only a few thousand people to suffer. Then, the Great Khan Lianhua ordered another expedition to the Qing Dynasty. In fact, the preparations for war had been made long ago. In the military camp outside Shenyang, 100,000 guards had been training, and food and supplies were ready. Whether there was a riot that night or not, the war would have happened. In order to boost morale, the god of war ordered the Grand Secretary Liu Haogu to write a manifesto to attack the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Daxueshi did not refuse, and wrote an "Edict of Sultan Khan to Attack the Qing Dynasty" in a short time: "The nine provinces are vast, and there will be a time for unification; the Great Wall cannot withstand the sharpness of sabers. The world is so big that it should be inhabited by people with virtue. The defense against the barbarians is within, not outside. It is a pity that the Qing Dynasty only knows how to kill and conquer, and does not understand culture and education. The three massacres in Jiading, blood flowed like a river; the ten days in Yangzhou, bones piled up like a mountain. The tombs of the barbarians, the change of Han clothing, and the literary inquisition are rarely heard of in the world. As for the horse racing and land grabbing, the pursuit of fugitives, the harsh laws, the heavy taxes and the oppression of the people, etc. , too numerous to mention, and both humans and gods are outraged. This is not the end of the Ming, but the end of the world. The Mongols are the descendants of the Xia Dynasty, and they should replace them and restore China. I have received the mandate of Heaven to comfort the people and punish the sinners, and to punish the unkind. The only one targeted by spears and swords is the false emperor, and the rest are innocent. All the false officials should surrender and offer land, bow their heads and welcome my horses. In addition to large rewards, they will continue to hold their official positions. If they persist in their mistakes, they will be crushed to dust wherever the army goes. Heaven's way is benevolence, which can make the wind blow and the grass bend; people's hearts help to obey, which can make the sword break the bamboo. I hereby issue a solemn order.

In March of the 1663th year of Qianyuan (), guards stood silently in the south of Shenyang, waiting to listen to the pre-war speech of the Oirat God of War, the Great Khan of Lotus. Here he came, a man as fast as the wind, riding a horse as fast as the wind, holding a dazzling sword in his left hand and a dazzling silver spear in his right hand, wearing golden armor, with a loud voice and a soaring momentum. Five hundred soldiers with loud voices spread his voice to all parts of the army.

"Warriors, nineteen years ago, the pseudo-Qing Dynasty occupied Beijing. They proudly declared themselves the masters of that land on the ruins of the Ming capital. However, they did not know that three hundred and ninety-two years ago, the Mongolian hero Kublai Khan also occupied that city and made it his capital. That is the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. I will take you to the capital to restore the former glory of the Yuan Dynasty. Warriors, follow my horse's hooves! Warriors, your descendants will be proud of you!"

"Go to Dadu~ Follow our Khan to Dadu~" the guards couldn't help but shout.

Sultan Khan urged his warhorses, and 100,000 tigers and wolves left Shenyang and headed for Shanhaiguan. The speed of the guards' march was not fast, and it took a month to travel from Shenyang to Yiwulü Mountain in Jinzhou via Liaohetao.

Yiwulü Mountain on the east bank of Daling River was called Wulü Mountain in ancient times. It is said that when Shun was in power, the country was divided into 12 states, and each state was given a mountain as a guardian mountain. This mountain was the guardian mountain of Youzhou in the north. The local Dongyi and Sushen people worshipped deer. According to the ancient Altaic language, "Yiwulü" means "blood-red doe", that is, "Red Deer Mountain". The mountain is very big, the scenery is very beautiful, and most importantly, it can hide soldiers. Suhe, the head of the Khoshut Wanhu, Salaletu, the governor of Liaodong, Dushihuoer, the prince of Khorchin, Alashan, the loyal duke, and Daur Bekenzhewuer led a "large army" of 35,000 people, including 10,000 prisoners, 10,000 Solon warriors, and 15,000 civilians, and hid in a secret camp in the mountain.

One day, Su He was discussing matters with other generals when he was informed that a messenger from the Great Khan had arrived. He did not dare to neglect him and hurriedly ordered someone to invite him into the tent. The messenger was a young general, only about 20 years old, full of vigor and vitality. He was the grandson of Liang Guogong Barsi and a thousand-household chief of the Great Khan's side.

When he saw Suhe, Chao Lemen said politely: "Lord Baili, the Khan has ordered you to dress up as an army of 100,000 and head for Shanhaiguan. You don't need to go too fast, just 40 to 50 miles a day. Please be the vanguard and walk in front. After you reach Shanhaiguan, join forces with the King of Jin and the King of Chu to launch several offensives. Attack fiercely and make sure the Qing army believes that it is the Khan himself in Shanhaiguan."

"Please report to the Khan that I will never fail in my mission." Although the other party was a junior, he was an imperial envoy after all. Su He did not dare to be arrogant and quickly accepted the order.

Chao Lemen also ordered people to carry in a large banner with vivid dragon and lion patterns on it. It was obviously the dragon and lion banner that only the Great Khan was qualified to fly. "The Great Khan has ordered that in order to make the fake look real, please ask Lord Baili to fly this Khan flag when he comes out of the mountains."

"This~" Su He was so panicked that he was sweating all over. As Sultan Khan's power grew, the Wei court gradually began to emphasize etiquette, and the principle of respect for superiors and subordinates prevailed. If he usurped the throne and raised the banner of the Khan, what should he do if someone used this to attack him in the future?
Seeing this, Chao Lemen laughed and said, "Don't worry, Lord Baili. This is the order of the Khan. You are just following his orders and have not overstepped your authority."

After hearing this, Su He breathed a sigh of relief and accepted the order in a deep voice.

"Pass on my military order. One person should have three horses, raise more flags, and prepare more carts. We must create the momentum of an army of 100,000. Light cavalry will patrol the front and back wings, drive away the civilians, and capture Qing army scouts immediately if they are found." Following Suhe's military order, an army of 35,000 composed of prisoners, Solon warriors, and civilians slowly walked out of Yiwulü Mountain and slowly moved towards Shanhaiguan at a speed of 45 miles a day.

In order to make it more realistic, Suhe ordered the Liaodong Governor Salaletu to command the central army under the dragon and lion banner of the Great Khan, while he himself served as the vanguard and walked at the front of the army.

At Xiaolinghe Posthouse near Jinzhou, two old friends of David's, Zu Zepu, Minister of the Military Affairs Bureau of the Qing Dynasty, and Nalan Mingzhu, a doctor in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, were silently watching the march of the army.

"Have you found out clearly? Is it the army led by the pseudo-Khan himself?" Zu Zepu asked Nalan Mingzhu calmly.

"I have sent people to investigate around the enemy army. There are scouts patrolling, so it is difficult to observe closely. But judging from the formations and flags, there should be 100,000 of them. Moreover, their army is flying the dragon and lion flag of the pseudo-Khan. In the guards, no one dares to fly this flag except the pseudo-Khan. Some soldiers risked their lives to get close to their vanguard and found that the vanguard was the pseudo-Khan's trusted and beloved general, the Second Class Bailigong, and the Khoshut Wanhu Chief Suhe. It seems that it is undoubtedly the army led by the pseudo-Khan himself," Nalan Mingzhu answered seriously.

"Yes," Zu Zepu nodded, and suddenly asked, "Is there any news from Shengjing?"

"Although the assassination of the fake Khan failed on the night of the burning lotus, it did scare the fake Khan. The fake Khan was furious and took his anger out on his subordinates. He fined Erke, the first-class Duke of Lu who was in charge of the defense of Shenyang, for three months, and demoted Hada, the head of the Wuyi Guard, from the first-class Kizilhou to the second-class Kizilhou. It was hard for the Eight Banners heroes who participated in the uprising. The guards killed more than a thousand heroes, sent their families to Nurgan to serve as border guards, and confiscated their property to pay for military expenses. It was really abominable!" Nalan Mingzhu said angrily. He was a bannerman, and many of his colleagues died on the night of the burning lotus. Naturally, he hated the Great Khan to the bone.

"So, the pseudo-Khan knew nothing about our activities in Shenyang before, and only learned of our existence on the night of the Burning Lotus. Haha, even Hada, the captain of the Wuyi Guard, was demoted, which shows that this beast is really angry. With this one thing alone, you and I have made great contributions in front of the emperor and eunuch Wu!" Zu Zepu's expression relaxed, and after pondering for a moment, he decisively ordered his subordinates: "Immediately send a letter to the capital by flying slaves, saying that the pseudo-Khan has personally led an army to Jinzhou and is heading towards Shanhaiguan. There are about 100,000 people, and the vanguard is Suhe, the pseudo-chief of the army."

After performing a trick of replacing one thing with another at Yiwulü Mountain, the 100,000-strong army of Great Khan Lianhua took advantage of the mountain terrain to go out of Yiwulü Mountain to the north, pass through the Santa Valley section of the Great Wall, and enter the southern desert grassland.

"Send a message to the entire army to march towards Zunhua city day and night." Seeing the green grassland, the Oirats God of War gave the order decisively.

As soon as the order was given, the army sped up immediately. The vanguard of the guards, the chief of the Huit army, Mandulatu, led 10,000 brave warriors to the front of the army. (End of this chapter)
