Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 443: Send a monk to Chechnya (Part )
Bobei, the servant of the right minister of the Ministry of Rites, is here to report: To appease Chechnya and settle matters in Mobei:
A lonely sinner was favored by the Great Khan and was promoted to a prisoner. He was made a minister. He lived in fear all day and night, thinking of repaying him. The land of Chechnya is bordered by Heilongjiang to the east and Monan to the south. It looks like a tiger to Liaodong and frightens all the tribes. It is a truly unparalleled place in the world and should not be abandoned lightly. Nowadays, the heroes have passed away and the disciples are vying to stand up. This is the time when heaven has given the land to the Khan, and it is also the time for the slaves to repay their lord. Since the mission, they have been running around and twisting their minds in order to achieve long-term plans. There is Taiji Babu, who is thousands of miles away, asking to be made a Khan. If God is kind to him, he is willing to serve him wholeheartedly and die in the Great Khan. He might as well promise him to control his people.

Before Chuan Shuo Lei died, he wanted to pass the riding whip to Babu, but Bemba and Tanggut Erdeni stopped him. Ahaihatun led the disciples to seek a break with Jebu Zundamba, but there was no decision, so he made the woman supervise the country. . It is doubtful that the leader of Jue Nang came from Tu Xie Tu. Today, among the three heroes in Mobei, Shuolei has passed away and Subadi is seriously ill. But Gunbu is in good health. His son is in charge of a large sect and has countless followers. He may be a danger to the country in the future. There is also the Zasaktu tribe in control of Khalkha. The territory is vast and the army is strong, and the situation is difficult to control. It is best to take advantage of Subadi's serious illness to attack.

If you want to make the people of Khalkha become the lackeys of the Great Khan, you must first make the chiefs of various tribes become the lackeys of the Great Khan; if you want to make the people of Khalkha become the wings of the Great Khan, you must first make the chiefs of various tribes become the wings of the Great Khan. Lu's rare goods can conquer a country. Babu is far away, and his goods are also rare. Shallow and foolish knowledge is nothing but a holy judgment.

Bobei's memorial was sent to Sultan's court at the same time as the Bab's memorial. When he was sent, the Great Khan of the All-Mongolian Lotus was sharpening his sword and preparing to deal with the Kazakh Yangir Khan.

After the defeat at the Battle of Albrak that year. He once made harsh words to others: I will train my troops and horses well after I go back, and I will come back again. If you don't surrender, I will send troops to attack you every year. I won't let you farm in the summer and burn your crops in the autumn. I am not yet forty years old, and I will beat you until your hair is all white and all your teeth fall out. That being said, due to years of war and an empty national treasury, they did not actually send troops to go on an expedition to Kazakhstan, but instead allowed the people to recuperate for nearly two years. During this period, except for sending local garrisons from Gansu and Qinghai to harass Manchu Shaanxi, no major wars were fought. The crops were harvested, the cattle and sheep were fat, and gradually some money and food were saved in the treasury.

Sultan was not a saint with a broad mind. On the contrary, he was very small-minded and would seek revenge when he had a grudge. Especially the great hatred that disgraced the reputation of the mighty War God Weilat, it is even more necessary to avenge him! So while contacting his in-laws and moving to the Torgut tribe in the Volga River Basin, he was planning another expedition to Kazakhstan to wash his battle flag with the blood of his enemies. At this juncture, these two memorials came.

Babu's memorial was very simple. He kept getting closer and asking for help, calling him "uncle" each time in a friendly manner. The central meaning is just one: You help me ascend to the throne of Chechen Khan, and I will listen to you in everything from now on.

Bobei's memorial was more complicated. The Great Khan of Lotus read it carefully and found that it contained three meanings: First, this Babu is a valuable treasure! When Lu Buwei got Qin Yiren to control Qin, you can also control Chechnya through Babu; secondly, Jebzundamba refused to rule and let Babu take charge of Chechnya. This is strange, indicating that some people want Chechnya to split , want to fish in troubled waters. who? Jebtsundamba was the son of Tushetu Khan Gonbu, and his attitude was Gonbu's attitude. Gunbu is very ambitious. He is the youngest and in the best health among the three heroes of Mobei. His son is a sacred monk of the Juonang sect with countless followers. If you don't take precautions, it may be detrimental to your control of Khalkha in the future; thirdly, Zha Saktu Khan Subaadi was seriously ill. Although the Zasak tribe is the leader of the Khalkha alliance, with a vast territory and powerful troops, but if the old Khan Subadi holding the horse whip is gone, they will no longer be monolithic, and the time is ripe to plot against them.

The two memorials were profound and made Suletan's mind a little confused. In fact, he was in a similar situation to Dorgon. Because he had to go on an expedition to Kazakhstan, he could not send troops to Khalkha Mongolia. As for the Great Khan, he was a man with strong soldiers and horses. He wanted to help Babu ascend to the throne of Chechen Khan. It would definitely not work without sending troops. However, the country's existing financial resources can only support one war. If it sends troops to Mobei, it cannot send troops to Kazakhstan. Should the expedition to Kazakhstan be delayed in advance?
The Great Khan of Lotus was undecided and summoned his trusted ministers to discuss the matter.

Most of the important ministers, including the first assistant Batu Hetan, the second assistant Tiemo'er, the great scholar Nasutu, the Duke of Lu Erke, and the official minister Hashaha supported taking control of Khalkha first and then dealing with Kazakhstan. The reason is that David and the Manchus are now competing for hegemony. Mobei is close to Liaodong and Monan, and geographically it can be used as a northern base to deal with the Manchus. Moreover, Shuolei Khan had a last word before his death to pass the horse whip to Babu and support Babu as the Khan. , the name is justifiable; as for the Kazakh Khanate, the road is far away, and Yangir Khan has prestige. Not only will it cost a lot to defeat them, but even if they are defeated, they will be of little use to Wei and Qing in their struggle for hegemony.

The ministers who support dealing with Kazakhs first and then conquering Khalkha are mainly divided into two groups: one group is represented by academicians Liu Haogu and Xue Zongzhou, who believe that the dragons in Mobei are leaderless and have nothing to fear; while Kazakh Yangir Khan is a hero of the world, and if he does not take advantage of They have not yet completely unified their internal affairs and are eradicated when they are still in their infancy. They will surely become David's formidable enemy in the long run. The other part is represented by the generals of the Imperial Guard, Enhebatu, Teguschaoketu, Bazibabu, Jambi, Bayar, Sebuteng, Zhuoqiba, etc., who followed the Lotus Khan The expedition to Kazakhstan suffered a big loss and witnessed the tragic death of countless Paoze brothers, so he wanted to take revenge. Suletan observed with a cold eye and found that Hu Lianqi, the right deputy censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, remained silent, as if he were an old monk in meditation. He couldn't help but smile and asked: "Hu Qing, I called everyone here today mainly to discuss the direction of the next troop dispatch. Others have spoken freely, why didn't you say a word? Could it be that you fell asleep?"

"Your Majesty, I am not asleep, but I am thinking about Minister Bobei's memorial," Hu Lianqi replied calmly.

Sultan disagreed, "I have ordered Bobei's memorandum to be circulated to all the ministers for a long time. After deliberation, the left and right are just the three levels of meaning just mentioned. Is there anything else to ponder?"

"I thought that your Majesty ignored a person and did not think through his thoughts."

"Oh, who?"

"Tuxietuhangunbu".

"Haha," Suletan said happily, "I know very well the colorful intestines of Tushetu Khan Gonbu. This man is very ambitious. He doesn't let his son Jebzundamba decide who is the Chechen Khan because he wants to split Chechnya. , so that he can take the opportunity to control Chechnya and then become the leader of the Khalkha Mongolia."

"Since the Great Khan understands this man's thoughts, why is he rushing to send troops into Mobei? Since this man regards Chechnya as a piece of meat, how can he allow you to snatch his meat? Once your army enters Mobei , he will definitely collude with the Zasak tribe, and even surrender to the Manchu and become your enemy. I am afraid that not only will Mobei be lost, but Khalkha will be pushed to the Manchu and Qing side."
