Chapter 1322 Submission
People tend to think that Mongolia is a blood race, but in fact Mongolia is a regional name.

Even the tribes of Mongolia, only the tribes are true, but not necessarily Mongolia.

But Mongolia has two big advantages.

One is Temujin and the other is a pony.

After Temujin died, only the pony was left.

But when Temujin was around, they had everything. They owned the armor of the Jin Dynasty, the gunpowder of the Song Dynasty, the Xixia Dama, and the artillery returned from the Western Regions. It was a war machine armed by the strongest in the world.

The legacy Temujin left to his descendants was enough for them to be defeated for 100 years.

They did lose for 100 years, and 100 years later, on the Mongolian plateau where Genghis Khan rose, his descendants didn't even have to use iron.

On the edge of Oirat, the situation is much better. They occupy the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, which are rich in grain. In the words of Zuo Zongtang, a famous general in the late Qing Dynasty, the land here is "plenty of melons and fruits, cattle and sheep everywhere, and herds of horses."The reserves of coal, iron, gold, silver and jade are extremely rich.The so-called thousands of miles of desert is actually a pot of treasures. '

The background of the vast grassland is the eternal snow-capped mountains, and a white felt tent stands alone on the green horizon. The nearby horses and the distant sheep are grazing with their heads bowed, and there is no one around.

The sound of horseshoes came from far, far away. The red uniform of the cavalry armor wearing a breastplate and a high-topped bowl made him look like a ball of fire. Crossing the prairie, two smaller yellow dogs followed closely one after the other.

The flag spear held high by this scout cavalry has the word Long Live written in the middle of the complicated and delicate patterns.

The Long Live Army brought a large number of hounds when they left the Great Wall. Originally, they wanted to go wild hunting to subsidize their supplies when there was no war outside the Great Wall, but they did not expect to be naturalized for a long time. The first troops even stayed in the city for nearly two years. , The hounds brought out all laid down two litters.

Fortunately, all the male dogs they brought out were ferocious-tempered. On the grassland, no matter whether shepherd dogs or mastiffs, they were bigger than yellow dogs.

However, this has also led to the fact that the yellow dogs they bring now are much larger, with longer and thicker fur, and they have more advantages in living outside the Great Wall.

The battle at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains had ended for nearly half a month. The cavalry took off the water bag on their horses and drank a couple of sips as they passed the lonely felt tent, and then ran southward without stopping. He wanted to return to the Ming army at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains. Daying reported the situation to Qi Dashuai.

There were four hundred scout cavalry sent out like him. Qi Jiguang listed all the famous tribal leaders of the Heshuo tribe. The cavalry went specifically to announce that Hanino Khan had been defeated, and summoned them to the re-established camp of Luntai County under the foot of the world to discuss matters.

As long as it doesn't hurt the messenger, it's up to you whether you come or not.

If ten thousand households do not come, a thousand households can come, if a thousand households do not come, a hundred households can come, if a hundred households do not come, the tribes can directly bring their families and livestock to migrate there.

In a word, as long as you go to surrender to the emperor, the emperor will reward you with gold, silver, silk and satin, land and household registration according to your ability and status.

Not only those from the Heshuo special tribe are rewarded, but other Wala tribes are also rewarded as long as they submit.

Qi Jiguang gave them a month to prepare to lose their lives if they didn't intend to surrender, and if they were unwilling to surrender or go to war, they should lead their troops to the north and not stay on this land.

The first batch of nobles who arrived at the Ming army camp at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains were not many, but they came very quickly. After discussion, those who are willing to follow the Ming army in the Northern Expedition can take a small number of people to participate in the Northern Expedition. Those who do not want to participate in the Northern Expedition stay here Pending allocation.

All the tribes will be dispersed and redistributed to the newly established guards. Those who are willing will receive rewards, and those who are unwilling can go back and lead the tribe to the north as if they didn't come.

"General Qi, what will happen if we go north?"

Not everyone is willing to stay. In fact, even if these few people come, only a few of the few people are willing to stay. It is unacceptable for all nobles to split up the tribe.

Most of them were just sent by the leader to test the Ming army's intentions. Although Hanino Khan's troops were defeated without even fighting, such power made them unwilling to rebel, but if the Ming army wanted to kill them all , they can only rise up in series.

But at least so far, the Ming army does not seem to be so difficult to communicate with.

"You go two thousand miles to the north, and there is a big river. North of the river, you can recuperate and graze as you like. As long as you don't go south, no one will care about you. Maybe in the future..."

Qi Jiguang thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Maybe in the future, merchants from Ming Dynasty will come to you to buy goods, and also sell goods to you."

Sounds pretty good.

But two thousand miles to the north, no one knows what the north is two thousand miles away. They only know that there is an endless desert in the middle, and no one can get out of there alive.

Qi Jiguang knew that his cavalry was exploring the way north at the Altai Mountains in the northeast. They originally thought that Oirat was there, but they went to the southern end of the Yenisei River Basin, where they met the independent Qierjisizhu after the decline of Oirat. department.

Their name originally meant forty hundred households. In the past when Oirat was strong, they were mostly attached to Oirat, but now they are separated from themselves. There are four large tribes, each of which is designated as the king, and their strength is weak.

When they got there, the scouts found that it was not Wala at first glance, it was all over the place, how could it be Wala, so they started a very friendly exchange.

The accompanying merchants sold some goods and bought animal skins, animal bones and other things. The scouts surveyed and mapped the map, and thought that the local people were digging their feet in farming and vegetables, so they pointed them out.

As autumn was approaching and the weather was freezing, we divided up several routes to survey and map the return journey. Most of the people failed to reach Guihua City before last winter and spent the whole winter outside before returning. Many people are still on the way to catch up with the army.

"So what if we don't go?"

Qi Jiguang laughed when he heard this question. Even if no one asked, he would let everyone know the answers to these two questions. He sighed softly, stood up and said, "Conflict is the cruelest thing in the world. You will live and die."

"If you can submit, you will submit, there will be no disaster of life and death, and you will get rich and honor by giving up power."

"If you can't return, you can leave. If you have difficulty leaving your hometown, you can still save your life."

"If you don't belong and don't want to leave, if you want to kill me, you will kill me. I can't kill you too much, right?"

Knowing that at this time, Qi Jiguang still lives on persuading people to submit, and said: "There is nothing wrong with submitting to the imperial court. What's the use of being a tribal leader if you lose your life? Are there still few leaders who died on the grassland in 200 years?"

"Go back and tell every leader you can meet, come and join us. It is not a good thing to go to the north, and it is even more difficult to stay. Some people may think that it is difficult for me to find you when you are nomadic in the grassland. It is indeed difficult for me to find you."

"When the time is up, the imperial court will offer a reward for the head of each of the non-attached tribes, and all attached tribes will get a share. When the time comes, there is no way to survive here, and one sheep is enough."

　Good morning, Chapter 2 will be released at eight o'clock.
