For the sake of the clans
Salute to the heroes and mourn to the departed!
Mourn the people who died in the retrograde fight against the epidemic! )
Wang Zezhi learned from the conversation of this merchant that his name was Bembaji, and he was a businessman who cared about the safety of his ethnic group.
And this guy can speak well, and he is very good at reading words.
From the time he saw Wang Zezhi, he was sure that Wang Zezhi would not kill him.
This is also the reason why he can escape from Lin Dan Khan's hands.
"Ben Baji, you know in your heart that you can't represent your race."
In fact, he does not submit to a certain power on behalf of his people.
Everyone is a smart person, and after Wang Zezhi broke it, Ben Baji stood up and apologized.
Wang Zezhi really didn't want to kill Ben Baji, and he kept Ben Baji for another purpose.
"Ben Baji, although you can't represent your clan, you can represent me, provided you can be loyal to me."
Ben Baji stood across from Wang Zezhi, with a bonfire between them.
Wang Zezhi picked it with a piece of firewood, and the fire burned even more vigorously.
Ben Baji listened to what Wang Zezhi said, gritted his teeth and knelt down.
"I, the Turks, Ben Baji, am willing to follow your lordship."
Ben Baji is a smart man, and he didn't say anything like surrendering to the Great Ming.
Because Wang Zezhi said very clearly, he wanted Ben Baji to be loyal to him, not to the Ming Dynasty.
After Ben Baji expressed his allegiance, Wang Zezhi ordered someone to bring him a piece of fur, he tightened the fur on his body, and said lightly: "Lin Dan Batur of the Jin clan, Hutu Ketu Khan, was defeated by me, and he is the person I pursued." ”
Even if Ben Baji had already guessed this result, after hearing Wang Zezhi say it, he still trembled and looked at Wang Zezhi in disbelief.
If he was only trying to save his life and temporarily succumb to Wang Zezhi, now he is convinced and sincerely willing to be loyal.
"Say it, I'll do whatever you tell me to do."
"I need you as my envoy to the Turghut tribe that has moved westward, to open up the long-broken Silk Road, and at the same time to proclaim my powerful force to the Rakshasa kingdom in the north.
After I catch Lin Danbatur, I will take you back to Huacheng.
There I had innumerable tea, salt, iron, silver, and firearms. ”
When Wang Zezhi said this, Ben Baji raised his head and stared at Wang Zezhi.
It was just an instant that he understood what Wang Zezhi meant.
Wang Zezhi said so much that he was willing to use these materials for trade, especially firearms.
If the Turks who moved west to the Volga had firearms, where would they have to fear the Dzungars and Rakshasas.
During the Ming Dynasty, the blonde and blue-eyed people in the far north who looked like evil ghosts were called Rakshasas, and their country was called the Rakshasa Kingdom.
Later, with the evolution of time, it was renamed "Goose Rose", and finally evolved into "Goose Rose".
After moving west to the Volga, the Turks discovered that this was not a place of peace, and that the struggle between the two religions never ceased.
And when they just stepped into this place, they were undoubtedly regarded as a third wave of forces.
Although they were originally brave and good at fighting, they were like rootless duckweeds, without great strength, so they had to cling to the Rakshasa Kingdom in exchange for temporary peace.
In the eyes of the Tsars of the Rakshasa Kingdom, they were rebellious, and even if they were vassals of the Tsar in a low position, they were still restless to plunder the resources of their country.
While intimidating them by force, the tsar wanted to annex Turghut by safe means and assimilate its beliefs to gradually control the tribes.
In order to prevent the problem from expanding, the tsar built military fortifications around their territory early on.
When the leader of the Turghut tribe saw with his own eyes that the tsar had completely wiped out the disobedient vassals, the leader of Turgor saw the fate of the tribe.
The leader of the Turghut tribe carefully managed to survive in the cracks, and at the same time secretly sent out caravans to contact the tribes that had not migrated to the east, and Benbaji was one of these merchants.
Benbaji first contacted the head of the Turghut tribe and Orlek's second uncle, Weigon Chabchachi, who did not migrate with the tribe but remained in the Ili territory.
After the tribe moved westward, they had taken refuge in the Dzungar tribe in order to survive, and he believed that Orlek had abandoned them and did not want to go to the Volga to join him.
Then he came to the Kobdo and Uriya Sutai realms and the third uncle of Orlek, Baolan Agalhu and the fifth uncle Manghai, who heard Ben Baji's intention, refused without saying a word, and began to migrate to the Qinghai Plateau.
Benbaji was disappointed and could only try his luck in the area of Juyanhai and Khalkha to see if he could gather the tribesmen scattered here.
He never imagined that the people scattered here would not be willing to migrate.
They would rather die in this steppe than migrate to the distant Volga River valley.
Frustrated, Bumbaji gave up, originally planning to return with some of the supplies he had earned from his business.
However, God did not fulfill people's wishes, and killed Lin Dan Khan halfway to rob his goods and kill all his partners.
He was lucky enough to escape.
He wandered alone in the steppe, without food or drink, waiting for death to come.
Just as he gave up his life and lay on the ground waiting to die, he heard the sound of horses' hooves.
The sound of horses' hooves indicates that there are people, and some people have hope of living.
At this time, Bumbaji no longer cared who was coming, turned around and ran, shouting as he ran, attracting the attention of the visitors.
The sentinel, who was inquiring about the situation, thought he was a fine worker, and when he was discovered, he escaped and arrested him.
Then he met Wang Zezhi.
He deduced from the attire of Wang Zeyi and his party that they were the army of the Ming people.
The robbers were dressed and deduced that the Ming army was chasing the group of people in front.
When Bembhaji fled, he hurriedly caught a glimpse of Lin Dan Khan's Daxu, and guessed that the robbers were members of the Golden Family.
Combined with all of the above, there was a conversation in the clouds before.
In a way, Ben Baji is a very smart man.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been singled out to be the liaison for secret missions.
Originally, he was going to gather his people to help, but ironically, he didn't get the help of his clan, but he got the support of a stranger.
Ben Baji is a man who thinks about the tribe, as long as he can help the tribe, what is there to make him loyal to a Ming man.
Besides, although there were only 3,000 Ming people in front of them, their well-equipped equipment and the spirit of the sergeants all showed that they were a powerful army.
It would be a good thing if their tribe could have such a strong backup.
The most important point is that Wang Zezhi is willing to trade with them.
They traded salt, tea, grain, and firearms that they could not ask for.
You know, under the tsars, they simply did not get these things.
Their leaders wanted peace, and their generals wanted food and weapons.
The chiefs and generals did not get along, so the generals began to go their separate ways, and in order to fight for more resources, the whole tribe fell apart.
It was also a conspiracy on the part of the Tsar, who wanted to see the Turks themselves fall and eventually co-opt them in a safe way.
