Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 248: Zhihei first presents weapons

The Manchu envoy Qi Chongge and deputy envoy Wuerten's mission went very smoothly. With the power of conquering the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Khalkha Mongolia's Zasak Tuhan Subadi, Tushe Tuhan Gonbu, The Chechen Khan Shuolei and the Tuohite tribe Ombu Erdeni Hutaiji did not dare to challenge the soldiers of the Eight Banners, and once again agreed to offer Jiubai tribute to Emperor Shunzhi.

When they arrived at the city of Hobokseli in the Junggar region of Oirat, Batur Huntaiji led Bingtu, Chuoktu Ubashi, Mergen Daiqing, Chuhuer Ubashi, Dalma, Seleng, Shabatu and Nomqi were greeted with great gifts.

Qi Chongge finished reading out the edict praising Batur Hutaiji. The legendary Mongol hero of Oirat knelt down without hesitation and said, "Slave Batur, thank God for his kindness." He also held a banquet to entertain the envoys and his entourage, and then invited them into the big tent for a secret discussion.

"The letter written by Huitai Ji to the emperor has been seen by his uncle and the regent. The former sent envoys Zaisanggul and Urten to admonish the Nahuite chief Suletan. Unexpectedly, this man was stubborn and insisted on proclaiming himself emperor. Jianguo wants to compete with the Qing Dynasty. It is really ridiculous and sad to use a mantis' arm as a chariot and a cricket to shake a tree!" Qi Chongge calmly stated his intention, and then carefully observed Batur's reaction.

The man in front of him was less than forty years old, but his face was like that of an old farmer. His loyal and loyal face already had wrinkles, and his dark skin seemed to have been exposed to the sun and wind frequently.

"The Junggar tribe is the emperor's loyal subjects. The Huite people rebelled against the emperor and established themselves, so they should be punished." The old farmer's eyes rolled around, he stood up and shouted energetically, "My slave Batur is willing to use all his troops. Be the vanguard and destroy this vicious villain for Your Majesty!"

"Okay, okay, I will report Huetaiji's loyalty to the emperor and my uncle, the regent, after I return to Beijing." Qi Chongge was very satisfied with the Junggar people's obedience and comforted him repeatedly, "However, at present, the main force of our Eight Banners is mopping up Li To break into the rest of the army, it is not possible to send troops to the west of the desert for the time being."

Upon hearing that the Qing government was unable to send troops, Batur immediately restrained his energy and spirit, and returned to the appearance of an old farmer. He said feebly: "As long as the emperor calls, I am willing to do my best."

"Well, before I left, my uncle, the regent, had given instructions that the Junggar tribe, which has always been submissive, could trade with them through the Khalkha Mongolia, allowing them to exchange cattle, sheep, horses and camels for weapons, swords, guns, arrows, halberds, firearms and spears. , sulfur pig iron and other items can be sold to them. The prince also ordered his subordinates to bring ten Franco machine guns, twenty tiger squatting cannons, three hundred firecrackers, three hundred sets of cotton armor, five hundred bows, Five hundred spears, one thousand swords and shields, and ten carts of iron ingots, as a compliment to Huitaiji." Qi Chongge smiled and took out the gift.

"Do you really mean what the angel said? Can our Junggar tribe really exchange cattle, sheep, horses and camels for military supplies such as swords, guns, arrows, firearms and spears, sulfur and pig iron through the Khalkha Mongolia in the future?" The Wolf King is the Wolf King, even though the Qing court granted The ordnance given to him was quite abundant, but what Batur was more concerned about was the ability to continue to obtain military aid.

"What, you don't believe what the prince says?"

"The slave dare not".

Qi Chongge was secretly proud of his success in convincing the Junggar people, and pretended to be concerned and asked: "Does Huitaiji still have any difficulties?"

This was originally a polite statement, but Batur didn't seem to understand and made a request loudly: "We, the Junggar tribe, live in a bitter cold land and are in great need of craftsmen who can make firearms, blacksmiths, stonemasons who can build cities, and people who can farm. Farmers, as well as agricultural books, medical books and other kinds of books."

"This~"

Qi Chongge's face turned red. "We, the Qing Dynasty, are in short supply of craftsmen for making firearms and cannot provide them to your ministry. After returning to Beijing, I will inform the prince and send some blacksmiths, masons and books to your ministry." . "Thank you so much, angel," Batur said with his hands.

"Does Huitaiji know what other tribes in Moxi are currently at odds with the Huite tribe?" Qi Chongge began to inquire about the news.

Batur's eyes flickered, and he said for a long time: "The Torgut tribe has moved far away to the Ejile River, and there is no hope; the Duerbot tribe is divided into pieces, and it is difficult to make a difference; now, in the north and south of the mountain, the only ones who are not on good terms with the Huite tribe are me, Junggar." There are only two great Khans, Dayan Ozil and Oziltu from the Heshuote tribe. Oziltu Khan is my ally, and Dayan Ozil Khan has a relationship with Suletan who killed his father. hatred".

Qi Chongge nodded. Batur's words were basically consistent with the information he had. "This time, on the order of the emperor and my uncle the regent, I am sent to Moxi as an envoy to contact various ministries to jointly deal with the Huite people. I also have to go to Yan'e." I will go to the court of the two great Khans Qil and Oqiltu and leave early tomorrow morning."

Batur was startled, "It is not difficult for angels to go to the Ulus of Eqirtu Khan, but to go to the Ulus of Ezirhan in Dayan, they have to pass through the areas controlled by the Huite people or Li Chuang. Both parties have How can we defeat the Qing Dynasty, which is our enemy?"

Qi Chongge smiled slightly and mentioned what Zhuge Liang often said in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms": "The mountain man has his own clever plan."

Ili is a beautiful place. It has been the "South of the Yangtze River beyond the Great Wall" and the "Hometown of Melons and Fruits" since ancient times. Since the eldest son of Bagas Khan, Oqiltu Khan, built the city of Ili, it has become safer and more It is prosperous, and the constant flow of caravans coming and going has brought vitality and vitality to the Ili River Basin.

In a big hutch by the Ili River, Princess Shuji was quietly sewing Mongolian robes, waiting for her lover.

She was a miserable woman. As the daughter of Mongolian Lindan Great Khan, her status was extremely noble. However, as the Chahar tribe was destroyed by the Manchus, she had to defect to the Huite tribe together with Namu Zhongkedun and lived a life of dependence on others. . As Ketun remarried Sultan Hutaiji of the Huite tribe, she also recognized Sultan Khan Hutaiji as her father and Namu Zhong Kedun as her mother. Her adoptive father and mother treated her well, and her food and clothing expenses were the same as when she was in Chahar. Gradually, she also fell in love with Yuledus Grassland, and regarded her adoptive father, adoptive mother and half-brother Abu Nai as her closest relatives.

But as a woman, she will get married sooner or later. The adoptive father chose as his husband Oqiltu Khan from the Kashote tribe. He was the son of the legendary hero Baibagas Khan of Oirat. He was handsome and generous. That day, holding a sheep blade in his hand, he came to Yingsochuan City to marry her in a graceful manner. After meeting him once, she fell in love with him, followed him to Ili, and gave birth to two children for him: Erdeni and Galedama.

If time were frozen at this moment, she would undoubtedly be happy. As a woman, with a loving husband and a well-behaved and lovely child, what else would she be dissatisfied with?
But a man’s ambition never ends! The adoptive father became a great khan and became emperor, but he was still not satisfied. He longed for the surrender of other Oirat tribes and constantly extended his tentacles of power to other tribes. His husband joined another strong man in Oirat, Batur of the Junggar tribe. Hutaiji's camp, following Batur Hutaiji in the war against the Kundulun Ubas and Duerbot people, gained a large amount of pasture land and population, and its strength increased greatly. It was no longer satisfied with being the Ili. Instead, he wanted to become the Great Khan of Oirat like his father.

No matter how much I tried to persuade him, the conflict between my husband and my adoptive father continued to increase. The abominable Batur Hutaiji married Aruna, a noble daughter of the Junggar tribe, and gave birth to her husband's third son, Ilaguk. From then on, her husband spent less time in his tent and almost always stayed overnight in Aruna's garnet.

Shuji knew that in terms of beauty, Aruna could not compare with her. Batur Hutaiji looked like an old farmer, so his daughter was naturally no more beautiful. The main reason why her husband didn't want to see her was because of the conflict between the Heshuote Department and the Huite Department. He didn't want to listen to his own advice and insisted on becoming his adoptive father's enemy.

well! In fact, it’s not his fault. He is the son of Baibagas Khan and has too many responsibilities and missions on his shoulders!
