Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

The Mongols lived near water and grass, and they could grow stronger if they had good pastures. Baimachuan in the north of Zunhua County, Shuntian Prefecture, was a good pasture with abundant water and grass. The Kharchin tribe, which had left Qilaotu Mountain and moved here, was able to recuperate and restore the strength damaged in the war. As relatives of the Manchu royal family, they could get such good pastures, but it was also because they were relatives of the Manchu royal family that they had to serve as a barrier in the northern part of the Zunhua section of the Great Wall to protect the Qing Dynasty's borders.

After refusing the Great Khan's persuasion to surrender, the Minister of the Kharchin Tribe, Duoluo Duleng Beile Tuba Seleng, initially gathered the people of the tribe to prepare for war carefully. However, after hearing the news that the pseudo-Khan was personally leading the army to attack Shanhaiguan, he relaxed his vigilance and only took turns with the Duke of Zhenguo Qilat and the First-class Tabunang'erlinchen to lead the troops to guard the camp, allowing the people of the tribe who were not on duty to herd horses and sheep. When the guards appeared in the camp of the Kharchin Tribe like a god, in addition to the troops on duty, most of the herders of the Kharchin Tribe were still herding their own cattle, sheep, horses and camels leisurely.

On duty today were the 3,000 men under the command of Qilat, the Duke of the Left Banner of Kalaqin. The unprepared Kalaqin soldiers had no power to resist the 10,000 battle-hardened guards and were quickly defeated.

"Don't panic, hold on, Deputy Governor E Sihai will definitely send troops to rescue us," Qilat shouted to his subordinates. Then a fierce god came forward, holding a heavy mace, and smashed the Duke's head hard, turning it into a meat pie.

"Brother, the guards are coming, follow me to Zunhua quickly," Bandarsha stumbled into Tuba Seleng's tent.

"We can't leave. If we leave, the Kharchin tribe will be finished. Blow the horn quickly and call the tribe to resist." After all, he was the leader of a tribe, and Tuba Seleng was unwilling to give up his territory, subordinates, and cattle and sheep. However, he was outnumbered, and the guards rushed in like a tide, chopping down his guards one by one.

"Deputy Captain, this man is Tuba Seleng, and that one is Bandarsha, the Taiji of the Kharchin tribe," an old soldier from the Hetohuit tribe who knew the two of them reported to Boritichina.

"Haha, it turns out to be Beile Tuba Selen. Tell me, where are the gold, silver and jewelry of the Kharchin tribe hidden?" Bortiqi laughed grimly.

"Pah~" Tuba Seleng spat contemptuously, despising from the bottom of his heart these Khalkha bandits who only knew how to rob things.

"Hmph~ Do you think I can't find it if you don't tell me?" Bortiqi sneered, ordered his subordinates to watch the prisoners, and personally led his subordinates to search. They soon found a row of wooden houses behind the big tent where Tuba Selen lived. After splitting open the door, they found it was full of gold, silver, jewelry, silks, tea, cloth, porcelain and furniture... After the marriage with the Qing royal family, the Kharchin tribe's lifestyle changed. Tuba Selen ordered people to build a row of wooden houses as warehouses to store supplies, so that they could be better preserved and not afraid of wind and rain.

"Don't worry about the cloth, furniture and so on. Just pick up the gold, silver and jewelry that are easy to carry and load them on the horses," Boritiqi Na shouted to his subordinates, ordering them to load the valuables onto the horses with cloth bags tied to them.

"Deputy Captain, what should we do with those prisoners?" asked a confidant.

"The Marquis has already instructed us to do it cleanly and not leave any evidence behind," Bortiqi said with a grim smile, making a gesture of wiping his neck.

"I understand," the confidant took the order and left. Soon, screams came from the big tent. The brutal Khothuite soldiers ignored the tradition that Mongolian nobles could not be killed with blood, and killed the brothers Tuba Seleng and Bandarsha, their families and guards.

A strong smell of blood filled the big tent. Gunbuileden, the third-class Hetohuit Marquis, and his Hetohuit tribe made a fortune.

"Da~Da~Da~" Tabunang'erlinchen, a first-rank officer in Kharchin, and his son Maoxiu rode their horses desperately. The endless Great Wall appeared before them. As long as they crossed the Great Wall, they would reach Zunhua, where 6,000 Manchu, Mongolian and Han troops led by E Sihai, deputy governor of the Manchu Bordered White Banner of the Qing Dynasty, were stationed. They would be safe there.

"Da~da~da~" the sound of pursuing horses' hooves was heard from behind.

"Isn't this Maoxiu Taiji? You can't escape. Hurry up and get off your horse and follow me to see the Khan~" Mandulatu laughed loudly with a huge mace in his hand. Amid the laughter, a group of tigers and wolves surrounded Erlinchen, Maoxiu and others.

"Great Khan? Isn't the Great Khan in Shanhaiguan?" Maoxiu was shocked. "Haha, how can you guys figure out the Great Khan's military tactics?" Mandulatu sneered, "Dismount and surrender quickly, or don't blame me for being ruthless."

Maoxiu's face turned pale. E'linchen knew he couldn't escape, so he ordered his guards to dismount.

"You fought very well! You occupied Baimachuan in one day and annihilated the entire Kharchin tribe, with only 300 casualties." The Great Khan Lianhua, who led the army to Baimachuan, praised Mandulatu and Gunbu Yileden after hearing the battle situation report. While he was praising them, a personal guard presented a secret letter. When he opened it, it was written that "Hetohuit Hou Gunbu Yileden ordered the deputy chief of the thousand households, Borite China, to plunder the gold, silver and jewelry of the Kharchin tribe, and to kill Duolo Duleng Beile Tuba Seleng, the first-class taiji Bandarsha and others to silence them."

The old man treats David's military law as nothing! The Oirat God of War glanced at Gunbu Yileden viciously, and was extremely angry. He attached great importance to military discipline and had already formulated military regulations for David's army, one of which was that the spoils should be returned to the public. He wanted to kill Gunbu Yileden and Boriti China to uphold the military law, but then he thought that now was the time to use people. Although this old man liked to rob, the four thousand and Tohuite soldiers under his command were still very combat-effective. Moreover, they had just made military achievements. Killing them at this time would easily be misunderstood as treating meritorious officials poorly. After thinking about it, he could only pretend not to know, and laughed sarcastically: "The Kharchin tribe is the in-law of the Manchu royal family, but there is not much wealth in the tribe. It seems that Shunzhi is very stingy and reluctant to give money to his relatives. Hahaha~"

"Hahaha~" The generals who were unaware of the inside story laughed in unison, except for Gunbu Yileden whose smile was extremely awkward.

"Come here, bring up Erlinchen and Maoxiu," the angry Khan ordered his men to bring up the prisoners.

"Khan, I am so sorry~" As soon as they met, Maoxiu prostrated himself on the ground and cried loudly.

Sultan did not speak until he was hoarse. Then he said slowly: "Maoxiu, you swore to Changshengtian that if you betrayed me, you would die under a hail of arrows. Do you still have anything to say now?"

"After I was ordered to return to Kalaqin, I tried my best to persuade all the taijis to abandon the Qing Dynasty and return to Wei. However, they were concerned about their in-law relationship with the Qing Dynasty and refused to do so. There was nothing I could do." Maoxiu cried.

"Haha, even if persuasion fails, why haven't you sent me a letter in such a long time?"

"This~" Maoxiu was speechless.

"Why has the Qing government been sending more troops to Shanhaiguan since you returned?"

After asking this, Maoxiu broke out in sweat, his whole body trembled like a sieve, and he begged for mercy.

The Great Khan's voice suddenly became gentle, "You know what? In fact, you helped me a lot. If you hadn't misled the Qing court to send reinforcements to Shanhaiguan, how could our army have easily captured Baimachuan and headed for Zunhua? I don't want to kill you."

After hearing this, Maoxiu's eyes regained their spirit and he began to flatter, "The Khan is a master of military tactics. I, a stupid servant, cannot understand it..."

Sultan waved his hand to stop the flattery. "Maoxiu, the oath of the Mongolians is more precious than gold. Since you have sworn an oath in front of Changshengtian, even if I don't want to kill you, I dare not go against Changshengtian's will. Come, drag Erlinchen and Maoxiu down and shoot them with arrows!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around him dragged the two men out without saying a word.

After sending away all the generals, the Great Khan sent a message to Hada, the head of the Wuyi Guard, saying, "I have waited too long. The Wuyi Guard can close its net now." (End of this chapter)
