Chapter 90: The situation is confusing

August of the first year of Chongzhen was definitely an eventful autumn.

The people in Shanxi and Shaanxi of Daming Mountain are in turmoil, and the chaos has become a pot of porridge, and the Mongolian steppe is also not peaceful.

In order to seize the power of the Chahar Ministry, Bayan Khan, Kachin Khan, and Lin Dan Khan sharpened their knives and could go to war at any time. And Yuan's Houjin in Liaodong was not willing to be lonely.

After Yuan Chonghuan took charge of Liaodong, he did not exert enough pressure on the Later Jin, and the new Great Khan Emperor Taiji took the opportunity to conquer the Mongol tribes. After swallowing the Chahar Dorot Division, he stepped up his steps and thought about the Chahar Naiman Division.

The Naiman Department is considered to be the strongest of the Chahar tribes, as long as the Naiman Department is conquered, the integration of the Chahar Department will be much smoother.

So, in a short period of time, Bayan Khan, Lin Dan Khan, and Huang Taiji's eyes were all fixed on the Naiman Department.

On the second day of the ninth month, the weather turned cooler, and Huang Taiji, with his younger brothers Dolgon and Duoduo as the main generals, led 10,000 elite soldiers to enter Mongolia westward through the Horqin Department. On the same day, Lin Dan Khan ordered his general Mint to lead his troops to advance in a northwesterly direction.

Dolgon and Minter were less than ten miles apart, but neither side did anything. In this way, the two sides maintained a tacit understanding, separated by ten miles from north to south, and advanced westward together.

For a time, in the Mongolian steppe north of Zhangjiakou, the situation became very delicate.

The four forces of Bayan Khan, Lin Dan Khan, Kachin Khan and Huang Taiji may break out into a chaotic war at any time.

Because of the critical situation in the Naiman Division, Azig also left Zhangbei and returned to Usuza's side. Usuzha was not actually an ambitious person, and his greatest wish was to let the people of Naiman live a good life, otherwise, he would not have watched Azig get so close to Tiemo.

Wu Suzha has no ambition, but others have ambitions.

The situation in front of him made Wu Suzha very worried. The young Bahanlie, who was not as old as Vulsuza, had his scimitar on the ground, and a few cold streaks hung on his resolute cheeks.

"Father Khan, according to the child's intentions, we might as well unite Tiemo's soldiers and horses and fight back that old thing of Bayan Khan first. As long as Bayan Khan retreats, the remaining Dolgon and Minter have their own scheming, and they can't toss anything. ”

Wu Suzha slapped the table and said angrily: "Bastard, if things were so simple, it would be fine. Now that the various ministries are facing each other, no one has done anything, don't you think this thing is strange? ”

"If it is said that Huang Taiji and Lin Dan Khan are jealous of each other, it can be explained, but they didn't do anything to Karaqin who is close at hand, which is really strange."

Bahan Lie snorted a little unconvinced, "Then let's just wait?" ”

"Yes, wait" Wu Suzha said ruinly, turned his head to look at Azige, his expression became extremely serious, "Azige, is that Han man credible?" ”

"Absolutely credible, the important thing is that if our Naiman Department is swallowed, Zhang Bei will bear the brunt of the attack, and from this point of view, he will not sit idly by."

"That's good, the current situation, we can only wait patiently. As long as we stabilize our position, and with the help of the Iron and Ink Division, others will have to think about it if they want to swallow us! ”

Just when Wu Suzha was at a loss for what to do about the situation in front of him, Zhang Beicheng's iron ink was also extremely distressed.

Lin Dan Khan wanted to take the Chahar tribe, unify Mongolia, and restore the glory of the Golden Family. Huang Taiji was ambitious and wanted to get the Chahar Department and increase his strength.

It can be said that the contradiction between Lin Dan Khan and Huang Taiji is irreconcilable, the two sides are mortal enemies, but such a pair of mortal enemies confronted each other, and no one made a move.

The situation in front of him is so strange that Tie Mo can't see through what is hidden here. Except for Zhou Dingshan, most of the subordinates are rough people, and it is okay to let them charge into battle, but if they analyze the situation, it is useless at all.

In desperation, a person flashed through his mind.

"Dingshan, you go out and call Chen Zilong over."

Zhou Dingshan didn't ask much, and after going out for a while, he called Chen Zilong to the barracks.

To Tiemo's surprise, before he could speak, Chen Zilong took the initiative to talk about the situation in front of him.

"The current situation is indeed very strange, all parties are not moving, and no one has the intention of making the first move. Especially the people of Houjin Bingma and Lin Dan Khan, they were actually safe. ”

Chen Zilong frowned, his mood was a little heavy, "The lower official has a conjecture, I don't know if it's right or not." It is reported that the Houjin side led the troops to the expedition this time it was Huang Taiji's younger brother Dolgon, and the soldiers and horses were also Dolgon's headquarters with white flags and inlaid white flags, perhaps, this is the main reason why the two sides are safe. ”

After Chen Zilong's reminder, Tiemo suddenly came to his senses.

It is said that even if Huang Taiji does not personally take command of the Chahar Department, he should send a more stable brother to take command, and Daishan and Amin are more suitable than Dolgon. It was a bit strange to let a young man like Dolgon, who was less than eighteen years old, take command and lead the army alone, and what was even more strange was that the lieutenant general of the army was actually a younger Duoduo.

Since Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne of the Great Khan, there has been a rumor in the Houjin side that Nurhachi's real intended heir is actually Dorgon, the second son of Abahai.

Although it is just a rumor, if the rumor is true, then everything in front of you can be explained.

Huang Taiji wanted to take the opportunity to reduce the strength of the two white flags, and it was best to let Dorgon die on the battlefield.

Dolgon must have seen through Huang Taiji's thoughts, so he took the initiative to distance himself from Minter's soldiers, and there was no intention of conflicting at all.

Dolgon's attitude is subtle and explainable, but what about Minter? If Dolgon doesn't take the initiative to attack, why doesn't Minter attack, so he's not afraid that Lin Dan Khan will trouble him afterwards?

Obviously, Chen Zilong also thought of this, he lit the table, and said in a deep voice: "What I really can't see through is Minte." Minte is Lin Dan Khan's confidant and has been entrusted with important tasks many times, how can he be so honest this time? ”

Suddenly thinking of something, Chen Zilong's face changed greatly, his lips twitched, and his eyes widened in disbelief, "Could it be ..... Is it that Lin Dan Khan and Bayan Khan have premeditated and want to join forces to swallow the Naiman Ministry? ”

Tie Mo thought this idea was ridiculous at first, but when he thought about it carefully, his heart sank, and his back was like an extra piece of ice, shivering with cold.

If Chen Zilong's guess is correct, then the Naiman Department is in danger.

Perhaps, there is really this possibility, out of some interests, Bayan Khan secretly surrendered to Lin Dan Khan, which can also be explained. As a descendant, Tiemo clearly knew that Lin Dan Khan had finally completed the great cause of unifying the Chahar Department.

"Whether it's true or not, we have to guard against it! Dingshan, immediately send someone to inform Kachin Khan of our intentions, and in addition, order all the five battalions of Han and Mongolia to assemble, pay close attention to Minter's movements, and immediately send troops to attack and disturb if there is any abnormal movement. ”

.......

At night, it's as cool as water.

A Mongolian army of soldiers and horses quietly headed towards the east, the wind rose, and a great battle was imminent.
