Chapter 390: The New Khan of the Prairie
When he saw the slowly approaching flag, Namu Zhong's face was stunned, and then he frowned.
She knew Chinese and Chinese characters, so she naturally recognized it as a "Qin" character.
She also knew that there was only one Han general surnamed Qin who dared to appear in the prairie.
"It's the Han people, how can the Han army appear here?"
Orzhetu didn't know Chinese characters, but he could only see that the banner was written in Chinese characters, and he didn't know who it was.
Namu Zhong didn't respond to her words, only frowned, and walked quickly towards the camp gate.
"Bayan, how many troops does the other side have?"
Near the camp gate, Namu Zhong asked a clansman on the arrow tower.
"If you go back to the bag, the opponent's armor is bright, and there is a fiery red everywhere, and I can't see how many troops there are for the time being, but it will never exceed three thousand."
Hearing this, Namu Zhong continued to walk briskly, crossing the path made by the people to the edge of the fence.
Through the fence, she saw a fiery red cavalry, like a fiery dragon, and like a sea of blood, approaching the camp without hurry.
"Humph!"
Namu Zhong snorted coldly involuntarily.
Wearing such bright armor on the prairie is simply looking for death, and that fiery red is the guiding light of the enemy, which can drive away the weak enemy and attract the powerful enemy.
However, why did the other party still quietly approach her camp when she was so conspicuous?
Thinking of this, Namu Zhong's brows tightened.
It seems that many of the sentry tribesmen she sent out have already died.
"Cysts, who are these? Why did the Han army appear here? ”
Ingurt, who was on the side, suddenly asked with a solemn face.
Namu Zhong looked at the big flag again, opened his lips, and said two words: "Qin Chuan." ”
"Qin Chuan? The Qin Chuan who has been in turmoil in the Ming Kingdom in recent years? ”
"That's right."
Namu Zhong nodded.
Although she had never seen Qin Chuan, nor had she seen the other party's army, she knew that it must be Qin Chuan.
From an unknown bandit to a thief, in just three years, he occupied a large area of territory in the northwest of the Ming Kingdom, and defeated the Ming army and the Dajin army to the ground.
During her exile in Qinghai, she had heard about this person, and not long ago she heard that this person had the intention of going north, wanting to occupy the Hetao area while the Chahar Department was forced into a predicament by the Dajin Kingdom, and even built two military forts along the Qingshui River.
At first, Namu Zhong did not believe that he would enter the prairie, and it was not a good thing for a Han man to reach here without a stable foundation.
The turmoil in the prairie will drag him into the quagmire of war, lose the protection of the Great Wall, and even the most powerful Han army will be reduced to a lamb to the slaughter on the prairie.
The Great Ming Kingdom and the Great Jin Kingdom will also take the opportunity to capture his territory, so that he will be overwhelmed, and he will lose all the games if he is not careful.
Unexpectedly, he actually came.
It's so high-profile, so frivolous.
It seems that this Qin Chuan is nothing more than that, and he got carried away for a while.
It didn't take long for the fiery red army to stop two hundred paces away from the camp, lined up in a neat formation, and looked at the camp with expressionless faces.
The tense atmosphere spread rapidly in the camp, and even the battle-hardened warriors of the Chahar Chinese army could not help but feel chills when facing this fiery red army.
Even Namu Zhong involuntarily clenched his fists,
Because, this quiet army is slaughtering, ruthless, and domineering.
They are the elite of the elite of Emperor Guan's army, well-trained red-clothed attendants who have experienced a hundred battles.
At this moment, several horsemen from the flaming red army came out of the crowd and walked slowly towards the camp.
At a distance of 100 paces, the men turned over and dismounted, placed a coffee table and three matzas on the ground, and even opened the teacups, lit a fire, and set up a kettle.
Another man came towards the camp and walked thirty paces before turning over and dismounting, kneeling down on one knee and clinging to his chest with his hand and shouting: "Keshiket Wanhu Chi'er Shan Batu, see the Empress Dowager Delegdere, the Empress Dowager Orzhetu, may the two empress dowagers be auspicious." ”
"Immortal Heaven bless you."
Namu Zhong replied politely, but his eyes kept looking at a Han man who was sitting next to the coffee table a hundred steps away.
"Chi'er Shanbatu?"
Ingurt, who was on the side, looked at the visitor suspiciously, and asked, "Are you the son of the Ulthai?" What about your father and your people in the mountains of Chi'er? ”
Batu replied with his hand to his chest, "My father has returned to the embrace of the Immortal Heaven, and my people have migrated to the south of the Great Wall, where they cultivate and graze in the territory of the Great General. ”
Ingult's face was gloomy: "You took your people to take refuge with the Han Chinese?" ”
Batu raised his head and replied calmly: "After the Great Khan moved westward, my people were slaughtered by the Jurchens, and less than 200 people survived from the 400 households and 1,500 tribesmen in the Chi'er Mountains. ”
"If it weren't for the great general's rescue, these two hundred tribesmen would have starved to death even if they were not killed by the Jurchens and Han Chinese."
"Today's Chi'er Mountain Department only serves the general, and Batu and everyone in the clan have sworn that the Chi'er Mountain Department will only serve the general for the rest of their lives."
"Humph!"
Yingult snorted angrily: "You have betrayed the Great Khan, and you Chi'er Mountain have betrayed the Great Khan and betrayed the Immortal Heaven. ”
Batu's face was still calm: "We did not betray the Great Khan, because in our hearts, the Great General is our Great Khan." ”
"You ......"
Ingurt was furious.
Namu Zhong, who had been silent, suddenly raised his hand, interrupted Yingrought, and asked Batu, "What is the purpose of Qin Chuan's coming here?" ”
"If you go back to the Queen Mother, the general wants to talk to the two Queen Mother."
"What does he want to talk about?"
"When the Queen Mother went, she swore to Changshengtian that the general had no ill will towards the two Queen Mothers, the Ten Thousand Households of Asu Tumen, and the Ten Thousand Households of the Chahar Chinese Army."
As he spoke, Batu leaned sideways and bowed his head in a gesture of waiting for the guest.
Yingult on the side hurriedly said: "Bag, can't go, the Han people have always been treacherous and cunning, insidious and vicious, be careful of their tricks, they only have 2,000 troops, we also have more than 2,000 warriors of the Chahar army, just hold the camp and don't let them attack, and the fourteenth Belle of the Dajin Kingdom will send troops to rescue us." ”
Batu interjected again: "My general has a message to bring to the Queen Mother, the general said that what Huang Taiji wants is not the queen of Lin Dan Khan, but the jade seal of the Mongolian Empire, the Maha Kala Golden Buddha, and Genghis Khan's Nine White Silk, so please don't hope for the reinforcements of the Dajin Kingdom, they will not waste a soldier for the queen of Lin Dan Khan." ”
"You!"
Namu Zhong's face was pale, and his face was angry.
"Queen Mother, the Han people have a saying that loyalty is better than deeds."
Namu Zhong didn't answer, only stared at the man who was sitting leisurely on the horse a hundred paces away with a blushing face.
After a long time, she suddenly snorted coldly, and then strode out.
Orzhetu also followed, and Ingurt hurriedly summoned Namu Zhong's guards, and personally led them to accompany Namu Zhong out of the camp gate.
