781 Controversy
Through the eavesdropping in these days, Emperor Chongzhen knew that among so many people who were being detained, this group of people was a sentinel sent by the Junggar Ministry. Knowing this, there is no need to be imprisoned again, take back the Class C eavesdropping seed, and then replace Balth with a Class A eavesdropping seed.
Balth himself naturally didn't know all this, and when he left the Ming army camp all the way, he was still a little worried at the beginning. However, when the Ming army passed by and surrounded them in groups at night, and each time they took out the so-called "road guide", they were all allowed to go. The farther and farther they went, and even when they couldn't meet the Ming army for a few days, they knew that they were safe.
Under these circumstances, Balth could no longer hold back, and with his two men, he abandoned the hundreds of sheep, and galloped back at once.
After arriving at the original place, he found no trace of the headquarters, and after wandering for two more days, he finally bumped into other sentinels of the Dzungar department. After some interrogation, the three of them checked the same confessions before they were taken to meet the Sangha.
There were only more than 1,000 horsemen on the monk's side, and after looking at the three Bals who were brought, they interrogated them again, and deliberately looked at the "road guide", and felt that there was no problem, so they took Balth alone and immediately galloped away.
After two days, Balth was taken to the foot of a Tianshan Mountain, which made Balth very surprised, should he be sweating and hiding in the mountains?
Although he thought about it in his heart, he did not speak, and kept following the monk, left and right, and entered a large valley.
Sure enough, all around this valley were guarded by people from the Dzungar tribe, and when they entered the valley, they saw people from other tribes such as the Heshute tribe that had been captured before.
It turned out that the reason why Baturhun was able to annex other tribes not only did not hide, but went to Hami to raid the Ming army, was because he detained people from other tribes here. Because of the topography of the valley, he only needed to leave a small number of men and horses to keep an eye on the people of these tribes.
Balth dismounted and walked through the valley, where he could see men from other tribes being held and doing their toil. He understood that these people must be unwilling to belong to the Dzungar Ministry in order to squeeze their value out of them in this way.
After walking for a long time, Barth saw the Great Khan. However, at this time, he was not qualified to go up to meet, but he was not worried, he believed that the Great Khan would definitely ask him for questioning.
Sure enough, after the monk prayed to him, someone came to preach him.
Barth walked quickly to Baturhun and bowed to him.
However, before he could bow down, he was stopped by the overjoyed Batur Hui: "Yes, yes, you have made a great contribution, and then tell the king about the situation, and don't miss any details." ”
Obviously, he said that in the process of passing the word, there was something that did not match the original content, so he had to ask again in person.
So, Balth hurriedly sent him to the sentinel, was caught by the Ming army at night, and entered the Ming army camp A series of things, all carefully told Batur Hun once, and also focused on describing the situation of the Ming army's baggage camp, and when he left the Ming army barracks, he saw the Ming army playing polo, and even the Ming emperor watched these contents with great interest.
Baturhun listened very carefully, and even after Balth had finished speaking, he asked some more questions about these contents.
There was a person standing on the side, named Zhuot Babatur, another son of Baturhui, who was obviously a little excited when he heard it, and saw that Baturhun no longer asked, so he hurriedly said to Baturhun on the side: "Father Khan, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is nothing more than this, he didn't even want to look for our traces, but had fun on the side of Luntai, and when it snowed heavily, their good days would come to an end." ”
Baturhun listened, but he didn't react, just frowned, as if thinking about something.
The Sangha had already understood the situation, so when he came along the way, he thought a lot, but when he saw the situation, he put forward different opinions. I heard him say to Baturhui: "Father Khan, the elite of the Ming army, we have seen it in Hami. The emperor of the Ming Kingdom drove the expedition in person, and the army he led must be more elite. In addition, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom can destroy the Jurchens of Liaodong, and the Ming State has today's territory, presumably the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will definitely not be an ordinary person! ”
"What do you mean?" When Zhuot Babatur heard this, he immediately asked with a little dissatisfaction, "The Emperor of the Ming Kingdom has been on the side of Luntai all day, and he has not seen any movement, and he has not sent troops to look for us, how can he fight us?" Hehe, he also said that he wanted us to surrender unconditionally, probably in this sweet dream! ”
At this time, they already knew the news that Hami was brought back by those who were captured by the Ming army. Naturally, they are dismissive of this.
After finishing speaking, Zhuot Babatur turned his head to look at Batur Hun and said loudly: "Father Khan, the fifth brother was frightened by the Ming army, and he planted one, and the son thought that he didn't care about the Ming army, and he couldn't find us anyway, so he waited for winter to come!" ”
There is only one khan, and it is strange that brothers can be harmonious. If the original historical development is followed, the monk will eventually take over the position of Baturhuin. However, the monk was eventually murdered by Drot Babatur and other half-brothers.
At this time, when the monk heard Zhuot Babatur's words, how could he be slandered by him, and immediately said to Baturhui: "Father Khan, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom will not know the situation in winter, and even if he does not know, his subordinates will definitely remind him." But if he still acts like this, there must be a trick, and he must be guarded against! ”
When Zhuote Babatur heard this, he was naturally not to be outdone, so he quarreled in front of Batur Hun and shouted to the monk: "Then you tell me, what tricks does the Ming Emperor have?" Shouldn't you stay in Luntai all the time, waiting for us to send it to your door in winter? ”
In this Tianshan Mountain Range, it is okay to hide for a while, but it is a bit difficult to wait for a year and a half. What will happen to the cattle and sheep then?
There are so many of them that they will starve to death. Especially in winter, they have to move to pastures where they can avoid the winter. Last winter there was no cat's waist for the winter, and this year it will definitely not be able to come again.
Hearing his words, the monk seemed to be shocked, and thought of something, and didn't care about Zhuot Babatur, so he said to Baturhui: "Father Khan, the Ming army's grain and grass are heavy, and it is absolutely impossible to support them to spend the winter in Luntai. Could it be that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom made up his mind to wait for us to show up at the beginning, so he didn't move in Luntai, waiting for the grain to be sent over from the Guannai? Rather than ......"
Speaking of this, he was a little excited, and said in an aggravated tone: "Why don't you lead the troops and see if you can intercept the follow-up grain and grass of the Ming army?" ”
In his mind, this possibility was absolutely possible.
First, the general situation of the Ming army's grain and grass baggage camp has been heard clearly, and there are so many things that absolutely cannot support the Ming army to spend the winter in Luntai.
Second, if the Ming army did not search for their own tribe with a destination, what was the probability that they could find the vast grassland? Whether you can find it before winter arrives is definitely a big question!
Third, if the Ming army was agitating in Luntai and could control so many places in Tacheng, Ili and the Jungger Basin, it would make its tribe very passive. After all, there is Tsarist Russia in the west, and it is impossible to go too far west.
On the whole, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is not an ordinary person, and it is likely that he adopted the strategy of waiting for the rabbit, at least for the Western Regions, it can be regarded as an effective strategy.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought it was possible.
Even Baltu, who was silent on the side, couldn't help but look at him, feeling that the fifth prince was indeed powerful.
When Zhuot Babatur heard this, he was a little unconvinced, so he shouted: "I first said that the Ming army would stay in Luntai and not leave, what do you mean by this, Father Khan heard it with his own ears, this is what I thought of......"
"Hehe, do you have an explanation of the specific situation of the army, can you analyze the weakness of the Ming army......" The monk naturally did not show weakness, and argued with him with contempt.
Baturhun never spoke, and when he heard his two sons arguing, he suddenly snorted and told his two sons to shut up.
When they saw that he was about to speak, everyone looked at him.
Batur Hui looked at them, and said categorically in an affirmative tone: "First, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is definitely not an ordinary person, there is no doubt about this!" ”
Hearing this, the monk demonstrated with his eyes to Zot Babatur without a trace, which made Trot Babatur feel very aggrieved.
"Second, since the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is not a mediocre person, there must be some conspiracy!" When Baturhun said this, his eyes looked at Baltu and said, "It is likely that he deliberately asked Baltu to send him the news of his lack of food and grass, so that we think that we have seized his weakness......
Hearing this, Baltu, who thought he had nothing to do just now, was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Great Khan, the villain definitely did not betray the clan, the villain really did not betray the clan......"
Seeing this, Zhuot Babatur stepped forward and said, "You traitor......"
"Enough!" But before he could finish speaking, he heard a loud shout from Batur Hun and stopped him, and then saw him say to Baltu, "This king did not say that you betrayed the tribe. As long as the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom lets you see what he wants you to see, it is enough! ”
Hearing this, Baltu breathed a sigh of relief.
But the monk was puzzled and asked Batur Hui: "Father Khan, how did the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom know that he was a person sent by our tribe?" Erchen asked, he shouldn't have revealed his identity, if he hadn't lied! ”
"The villain didn't lie, the villain dared to swear to Changshengtian, the villain definitely didn't lie!" When Baltu heard this, he hurriedly distinguished it loudly, and at the same time raised his hand, as if he was about to swear, in order to prove his innocence.
