Gao Pragmatic was busy in Annan, and devoted himself to the foundation of southern Xinjiang, and it was inevitable that he would be a little lax in other aspects, until Cao Gan's urgent letter arrived, and he suddenly woke up - the north was about to change.

Cao Gan originally only barely knew some words, and his literary talent was also mentioned and suspended, but since he surrendered to Gao Shishi, because the Jinghua Trading Company was in a unique position in trade with right-wing Mongolia, monopolizing at least half of the trade within the right-wing Mongolian sphere of influence, his status gradually improved, and he gradually felt that he had to strengthen his cultural cultivation.

Especially when his son Cao Ke has been a high-level pragmatic companion for ten years, he is now a proper "Jinghua First Secretary", although he is only a scholar in name, but his position within Jinghua is very unique, which in turn forces Cao Gan to strengthen his cultivation, so the bald king Cao Da was stunned to invite a few Mr. Xixi to teach him to read and practice, and his level has gradually grown a lot.

The letter he wrote to Gao Shishi this time, Cao Gan did not fake it, and it was completely written by himself.

Cao Gan's letter is a long letter, and it is very long, with tens of thousands of words. Of course, he didn't want to write so much in his letter, but gave a detailed analysis of the situation of the Mongolian right-wing from the headquarters to the situation of the Ordos department, Qinghai Tumut and other departments, so as to confirm his speculation.

Cao Gan's speculation has three main points:

First, Altan Khan is already seriously ill and may die in a few months or at most a year or two, and there may be a change of power or even a struggle within Tumut, and I hope that the lord will be prepared to deal with it in advance.

Second, the two major allies of the Ming Dynasty - or even simply Gao Pragmatic - in Tumut, Dacheng Taiji and Zhongjin Hatun, did not have too many conflicts of interest when Altan Khan was not dead, but as long as Altan Khan died, their interests would immediately conflict, and I hope that the lord will hurry up and make preparations.

Cao Gan even said worriedly here: Maybe the old man will choose one of the two allies as the only ally in the future. Obviously, he is not optimistic about Dacheng Taiji and Zhongjin Hatun, that is, Hannaji and Samniangzi can still maintain harmony after my death.

Third, Cao Gan specifically pointed out that with the conquest of Qinghai by Alta three or four years ago, he once again brought Tibetan Buddhism back to Mongolia and made the greatest efforts to promote it in Mongolia.

However, Cao Gan always felt that this Tibetan Buddhism was "extremely lazy" and "lifeless", and if it was not good, it would ruin the courage of the Mongols.

Finally, Cao Gan also raised an "additional topic", saying that five years ago, the Northern Yuan "Zasaktu Khan" Tumen held the "Kuritai Conference", reformed the Khan's court system, and appointed important positions to other powerful figures of 10,000 households, assisting the Great Khan in handling major government affairs, so as to consolidate the Khan's power.

Among them, Amudai of Chahar Wanhu, Wei Zheng Subahai of Khalkha Wanhu, Kutuketai of Ordos Wanhu, and Nomuda Laguraqi of Yongshao Buwanhu took the lead and arrived in office.

However, due to Altan Khan's long life, his eldest son, Xin Ai Huang Taiji, is now over sixty years old, and in the case of Mongolia, he is completely old, and now his eldest grandson is far away from the Northern Yuan Emperor of Chahar, in case Altan Khan dies suddenly......

Cao Gan said vaguely that perhaps the lord could choose to support Dacheng Taiji or Butashri, the son of Zhongjin Hatun, and ascend to the throne of Khan beyond Xin Ai and Pullik.

It was not easy for Gao Pragmatic to turn back his thoughts about putting all of his recent focus on Annam, seriously recalled the situation on the Mongolian side, and carefully read Cao Gan's letter again, and then slowly sorted out his thoughts.

The death of my answer is something that cannot be escaped, this old Khan is already in his seventies, he has fought all his life, he must be the same as Ma Fang and Liu Xian, he is full of injuries and diseases, and it is remarkable to be able to live strong until now.

In what year did he die in history? Nine years of Wanli, or ten years of Wanli? Gao Pragmatic can't remember it clearly, anyway, he has a year to live at most.

As for the power struggle that will occur after he dies, that's for sure. It has already happened in history, and the power structure within right-wing Mongolia has not changed much from history, and the probability of it happening is infinitely high.

And Cao Gan thought that there would be a conflict between Dacheng Taiji and Zhong Jin Hatun, which slightly surprised Gao Shishi.

What surprised him was that not long after the death of Dacheng Taiji in history, he accidentally fell off his horse and died while hunting, so there was no obvious battle between him and Sanniangzi, so that he forgot to think about what would happen if Dacheng Taiji did not die, but Cao Gan actually discovered this keenly.

It seems that Lao Cao has made a lot of progress in recent years......

But the question he raised really needs to be carefully considered, after all, this kind of thing is just a historical accident, what if this time Hannaji didn't have a fart matter, and he lived well?

You must know that his strength in right-wing Mongolia is quite strong! On the other hand, in addition to controlling the Khan Court because of the neglect of worship of Buddha in my later years, the third lady was close to the water and the moon first, but her actual strength was very limited, especially her child Butashri was young, and he had not received much of a seal.

That is to say, if you leave aside my eldest son, Xin Ai Huang Taiji, once I Da Da dies, Dacheng Taiji has a strong strength, and Zhongjin Hatun holds the name of Khanting.

Will the two of them pinch each other? It is quite possible, because there is already a precondition here: Xin Ai is old, and his eldest son, Talik, is far away from the Tumen Khan, and in the event of civil unrest in Tumut, Tumen Khan may see an opportunity to detain Talik or put him under house arrest in left-wing Mongolia for the right time.

"Three ladies......" Gao pragmatically muttered.

Of course, he didn't have any special thoughts about this Zhong Jin Hatun, but he thought of the three ladies in history...... She is a good friend of Daming, so she has won high praise in many materials and documents in later generations.

However, Gao Pragmatic knows very well that this "loyal friend of the Ming Empire" may be the culprit who caused the grassland hegemony that I had spent my life building to build up collapsed in just over 30 years.

His nectar, my dove poison. Vice versa.

This is not a high-level pragmatic attempt to sensationalize, it is true. At that time, after the death of Altan Khan, the eldest son Xin Ai Huang Taiji inherited his father's Khan title, throne and power, considering that the trade with the Ming Dynasty has always been in charge of Zhongjin Hatun, which is a matter of great importance to the right-wing Mongolia, so he also took his father's favorite concubine Zhongjin Hatunna as his wife.

Xin Ai Huang Taiji has been fighting with his father for many years, and I answer only need to divide the army into two ways, if one of them is led by himself, then the other road must be Xin Ai, it can be seen that as long as I am gone, his prestige in the army is undoubted.

With such prestige, Tumut could have been safe. However, when he ascended the throne, he was already over 60 years old, riddled with injuries and illnesses, and was unable to control many major government affairs, making it difficult to control the political situation. As a result, Zhong Jin Hatun took the opportunity to manipulate the real power of Tumut Wanhu.

Chungjin Hatun and Altan Khan had a son, Butashri, the youngest of Altan Khan's sons, and the least powerful. As a mother, Zhong Jin Hatun naturally tries her best to help her son get the most benefits, even if it is unreasonable.

After his death, all the descendants and the cities of Kuku and Tuncheng, which Altan Khan personally commanded and owned, belonged to his beloved grandson, Dacheng Taiji. As a result, in the second year of Altan Khan's death, Dacheng Taiji fell from his horse while hunting and died.

This is a big trouble, Zhong Jin Hatun is afraid that Dacheng Taiji's inheritance will fall into the hands of others, so he personally came forward and actively matched, asking Dacheng Taiji's widow Dacheng Biji to marry his son Butashri, so as to transfer Dacheng Taiji's inheritance to Butashri.

But this was so obvious that some nobles led by Altan Khan's confidant Chataiji, led by Chataiji, led to a civil war in Tumut, who was loyal to Alta and loyal to Dacheng Taiji, believed that after Dacheng Taiji's death, his fief should go to his son.

If you can't talk about it, then you can only fight, so the two sides fought with swords and swords, bloody battles, and many soldiers died in the infighting. In the end, it turned out to be Xin Ai Huang Taiji's eldest son Tulik who married Mrs. Dacheng Taiji, which brought the dispute to an end.

However, this is only the first time that Daming's old friend Sanniangzi has messed up the country.

In the fourteenth year of Wanli, Xin Ai Huang Taiji died. His eldest son, Pullikhei, was the Khan, and at the same time, he proclaimed himself the third king of Shunyi. Zhongjin Hatun, who had failed last time, once again made waves, taking into his own hands the talisman used by Chechen Khan to dispatch troops and the special seal for the king of Shunyi to trade with the Ming court, claiming to hand them over to Butashri. Pulling Rick was furious, so he sent troops to fight, and the infighting resumed.

This time, the Ming court came out to make peace, officially canonized Tuo Lik as the "King of Shunyi", forced Zhong Jin Hatun to hand over the talisman and seal to him to be in charge, and at the same time, named Zhong Jin Hatun as the "Lady of Zhongshun", and asked her to cooperate with Tuo Lik to preside over and supervise the mutual trade activities between the Mongolian right wing and the Ming Dynasty.

Ralik also relented, and he ceded Kuku and Tuncheng to Butashri. After two infighting, the vitality of Altan Khan's descendants was greatly damaged, and his control over the 30,000 households on the right wing was greatly weakened, and he gradually became out of reach of Qinghai, Hexi Corridor and other places.

After this turmoil, it was quiet for more than ten years, and in the thirty-fifth year of Wanli, Pullik passed away. His eldest son, Chaotu Taiji, had died before that. His eldest grandson, Bushtu, who was stationed in Qinghai at the time, heard of his grandfather's death, so he hurriedly returned from Qinghai to Tumut to prepare for the throne of Chechen Khan and Shunyi.

At the time of the change of power, Chung Kim Hatun stepped forward for the third time and decided to carry Dòngluàn to the end. This time, she came forward to support her grandson, the son of Butashri, Sunangtaiji, and raised an army to fight for the supremacy of Tumut Wanhu.

The leaders of the Tumut headquarters and even the right-wing departments all believed that Bushtu was the rightful heir, and they were all enemies of Jong Kim Hatun and Su Nang, but under such a confrontation, Bushtu could not ascend to the throne for a long time. Until the 39th year of Wanli, Huang Taiji, the younger brother of Pullik, contacted 30,000 households on the right wing, a total of 73 Taiji, and unanimously decided to resolutely support Bushtu in Tumut Jíhuì.

Feared by the military threat of the right-wing chieftain, Chung Kim Hatun was forced to make concessions and surrender Chechen Khan's talisman, mount, and seal of King Shunyi. Soon, Zhongjin Hatun, who caused three civil strife to Tumut Wanhu, died in the world.

However, the matter was not over, in the forty-first year of Wanli, Bushtu finally officially became Chechen Khan, and the Ming court also recognized him as the fourth generation of "King Shunyi". However, Sunangtaiji still refused to accept the jurisdiction and repeatedly provoked and caused trouble, which caused turmoil in the Tumut Wanhu.

Gradually, the royal court orders in Kuku and Tuncheng could only be effective in Tumut Wanhu, while the control of the 30,000 households on the right wing was completely lost, and the tribes in Qinghai, Hexi Corridor and other places no longer obeyed orders.

Altan Khan's hegemony, only thirty-one years after his death, was completely destroyed at the hands of the woman he loved most during his lifetime.

Of course, it's still the same sentence, the nectar of him, the poison of my dove.

On the other hand, the poison of the dove is the nectar of mine.

Gao Pragmatic doesn't care at all about whether Altan Khan's hegemony can be maintained, he cares about the chain reaction caused by this situation.

At that time, compared with the turmoil in right-wing Mongolia, the rest of Mongolia was no less than that.

At the time of Dayan Khan's division of the princes, it was the ninth son, Gessenza, who was in charge of Transkhalkha. In the fifteenth year of Wanli, his third son Nuo Nuo and his son Abadai met the Da Lama and was awarded the title of "Great Prestige Wazir Khan", becoming the first leader to have a khan in Mobei Mongolia. 、

Since then, the leaders of the Khalkha tribes have successively called Khan, and there have been Zasaktu Khan, Tushetu Khan, and Chēchén Khan, which are the "Three Khans of Trans-Khalkha", replacing Tumut and beginning to conquer the Oirats.

At this time, the Oirats were also divided into four major divisions: Heshute, Dzungaria, Dulbert, and Turgot, forming the "Oirat Alliance", and the Heshute Department was publicly promoted as the leader of the alliance, and the leader of Heshut, Baibagas, was also given the title of Khan by the Da Lama. The Four-Ministry Alliance and the Three Khans of Transkhalkha have been at war for many years.

In the twentieth year of Wanli, the last Mongol Great Khan who could give orders to the ministries, "Zasaktu Khan" Tumen died, and his son Buyan ascended the throne, called "Chechen Khan", and all he could control was Chahar Wanhu.

Mongolia was in turmoil, and although there were "khans" everywhere, none of them could stabilize the situation and reunify.

This seems to be a good thing for Da Ming, but because of another thing that Cao Gan just mentioned, it made Gao Pragmatic worry about whether this matter was really good or fake.

Ten years ago, Gao Shishi had already begun to implement his plan to secretly influence and gradually control Mongolia, including economic control, such as making Mongolia inseparable from the living materials provided by the Ming Dynasty through mutual markets; There was also political control, such as support for Hannaji as a powerful ally of the Ming Dynasty in Mongolia.

As for the third lady, Zhong Jin Hatun...... She is actually the same as Han Naji, she is the *** of the Ming Dynasty.

But the great chaos in Mongolia is not what Gao Shishi wants—he only needs small chaos, because small chaos is enough to ensure that his plan can be carried out, and if it is a big chaos, then even if it is successful, it will not be of much use.

Historically, Lin Dan Khan took advantage of the decline of the Mongolian right wing and finally unified Mongolia in name, but was beaten by Nurhachi and Huang Taiji, and finally the Mongols became the lackeys of the Manchus.

Of course, there are various reasons such as the decline of the strength of the Ming Dynasty in the end, but if Mongolia itself did not decline so quickly, how could it have fallen into such a situation?

Therefore, Dacheng Taiji is still a third lady, this multiple-choice question is not easy to do.
