Chapter 165: Alliance
Summer in the north is always late, and the winds in July are still fresh and strong, and there is no sign of bowing to summer.
In the vast field outside the city of Yeh, the Mongol camp has no end in sight, and Lindan Khan of Chahar has come, Oba of Korqin has come, and Tsisenoyan of Inner Khalkha has come...
In fact, not only the Mongols, but also the whole world, where is there no respect for the strong?
Ye Xun used grain to form a good alliance with the Mongolian tribes, and at the same time, with his tough style, all the Mongols who had dealt with him had to bow their arrogant heads.
Because of the appearance of Lin Dan Khan, some small tribes that were closer to him also came to stand and cheer.
However, the Jianzhou Jurchens that Ye Xun most hoped to come to did not send anyone to come.
Jintai Jiming people built a high platform outside the city, in the middle of the platform is the Xuanhuang Tuanlong Banner that symbolizes the imperial power of the Ming Dynasty, and above the Tuanlong flag is the "Ye" character banner fluttering in the wind, and on both sides are the banners of the Mongolian tribes and Yehe Jurchen.
The sixth day of the seventh month is the auspicious day of the zodiac selected by the Jurchen shamans.
Ye Xun was wearing a python robe with a jade belt around his waist, and his face was standing at the front with a stern face, although Ye Xun was not a little white face, but he was not ugly, especially with this python robe, he was even more calm and graceful, and it was difficult for people to associate him with the eunuch.
Ye Xun first led the leaders of the various departments to burn incense and worship the sky in front of the table, which is the most important ritual of the grassland people, since they want to form an alliance, Ye Xun must respect the customs of the grassland people.
In just a few months, Ye Xun has jumped from an unknown little eunuch to a powerful eunuch in Liaodong, needless to say, the hardships are needless to say, and the momentum of the superior on Ye Xun's body has unconsciously made the leaders of the various departments attending the meeting have a sense of coercion, standing in front of Ye Xun, the waist will bend down unconsciously.
After the ceremony of worshipping the heavens, it is the highlight of this alliance, that is, the central idea of the topic.
Although Lin Dan Khan was very reluctant, he also knew that he couldn't compete with Ye Xun at all, so he could only watch Ye Xun sit on the main seat, and he could only sit on Ye Xun's left side.
The ancients honored the left, and below him were the tribal leaders of Jintaiji, Buyangu, Oba, and Tsisenoyan.
Around the high platform were the elite men of the various tribes, which was a matter of showing their faces, and each tribe sent out the strongest soldiers.
Man Gui and Komur stood at the entrance of the high platform with swords like gods, while the rest of the soldiers patrolled the outermost area under the leadership of Cao Bianjiao to prevent all kinds of emergencies.
Lin Dan Khan's son Ezhe is like a little follower, and he has been by Ye Xun's side, looking at his low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, but he is more like a eunuch than Ye Xun.
Lin Dan Khan was angry in his heart, if it wasn't for the public, he really wanted to give his son two big mouths, you are also the prince of the largest tribe in Mongolia, how can you lose Lao Tzu's face so much?
As if feeling his father's murderous gaze, Ezhe always lowered his head and didn't dare to look at his father.
Ezhe's behavior undoubtedly made Ye Xun's weight in the hearts of the leaders of the various tribes, especially Ye Xun's two major guards turned out to be Mongols, which also made the leaders of the various departments feel more intimate with Ye Xun.
"Ye took the liberty of inviting you all from afar, please forgive me for the inconsiderate hospitality."
Ye Xun took the lead in making the opening remarks, and bowed to the leaders around him as he spoke.
Everyone didn't even dare to say it, and Lin Dan Khan was the first to answer: "My father-in-law represents His Majesty the Heavenly Empire, and he invited me to come, how can I not come?" It's just that there's still something unclear below, and I ask my father-in-law to solve my doubts."
Ye Xun knew that this old guy was not convinced by himself, but it was just that it was not good to attack at this time.
smiled and nodded: "Great Khan, please say, Ye must know everything"
"My father-in-law recruited me to come to the alliance, obviously to attack Nurhachi in Jianzhou, my father-in-law has an order, we should obey it, but my 100,000 army is coming, and this road consumes a lot of money, I don't know if my father-in-law can allocate some grain and grass first, and I can't let my people go hungry to fight for the Celestial Empire, right?"
After listening to Lin Dan Khan's words, many tribal leaders followed suit, in fact, many people came to play soy sauce, and they all wanted to get some benefits to go back, but they were not much interested in the matter of starting a war with Jianzhou.
Everyone's reaction fell in Ye Xun's eyes, but Ye Xun was not angry, and said slowly: "I'm afraid the Great Khan is mistaken, first, this prince is looking for you to come, not to start a war against Jianzhou, if the Great Khan wants to fight Jianzhou, our family will never stop it, as for the grain and grass, I'm sorry, no!" ”
"Wow! ...”
Before Ye Xun's words fell, the tribal leaders present were in an uproar and began to talk one after another.
Lin Dan Khan was choked by Ye Xun's face and neck, and he just wanted to speak, but he heard Ye Xun continue: "Of course, how much you can loot from Jianzhou, this duke will never ask for a point, second, in line with the principle of good neighborliness and friendship, this duke is willing to be friends with all Mongolian tribes, but there is one thing, that is, no tribe is allowed to step into my Liaodong or even Daming without permission."
Hearing Ye Xun say this, Lin Danhan finally couldn't help but stand up suddenly, and said angrily: "Gonggong Ye, I respect you, but I'm not afraid of you, you invited us to come to the alliance, aren't you playing tricks on us?" When I am Mongolian, am I easy to bully? ”
Ye Xun's face also sank, and he said lightly: "My father has always respected Mongolian heroes very much, and there are many Mongolian brothers in the Liaodong Army. ”
"My duke summoned you to come today, one is to determine the cooperation between Han and Mongolia, and the other is to set some rules, Lin Dan Khan didn't wait for my duke to finish speaking, he intended to provoke the relationship between the various ministries and my duke, I don't know what his intentions are?"
Looking at Ye Xunsen's cold eyes, Lin Danhan suddenly came to his senses, this dead eunuch is unpredictable, how could he be so stupid to offend him at this time?
Forced a laugh at the moment, and said: "My father-in-law misunderstood, Ben Khan has no such intentions, and Ben Khan is also sincerely allied with the Guild."
Ye Xun nodded and said, "That's good, my father treats people with sincerity, I hope you can do the same."
At this time, Oba of Horqin asked cautiously: "I don't know what my father-in-law means by cooperation?" ”
Ye Xun asked rhetorically: "What do you Mongolia lack the most?" ”
Hearing Ye Xun say this, everyone's eyes lit up.
In order to curb the development of nomads, the Ming Dynasty imposed a ban on many things, and if you want to ask what the grassland lacks, there are many things that are lacking.
Before everyone could speak, they heard Ye Xun continue: "Don't think about the iron, transport the iron to you, I will also lose my head, except for the contraband for the manufacture of weapons, other things can be appropriately relaxed, but of course the things are going to be sold to friends."
The intention of Ye Xun's last sentence is very clear, if they are all arrogant people like Lin Dan Khan, they don't want to get any materials in Daming.
Countless facts have proven that talent is the only key to solving problems.
If the source of the weapon is controlled, so that the Mongolian tribes will slowly become rich and their lives will be stable, who will want to plunder?
Ye Xun thinks very deeply and far away, no matter ancient or modern, what the Chinese nation wants is not a bloody fight, stability can lead to development.
Of course, there is also a premise for this, which is to first eliminate those who are ambitious, such as Nurhachi and the like...
