Chapter 708: Capturing Gao Yihuan Alive
At the southern foot of the Huhu Adal Mountains, at the source of the Qaidam River, on the shores of Lake Shantoso, is a fertile pasture.
At this time, at the foot of the undulating mountains, there is a grassland with undulating blue waves.
Overhead are snow-capped mountains, white clouds seem to be within reach, in the middle are grasslands, above which herds of cattle and sheep are scattered with Mongol tents, and below are calm lakes, reflecting the sky and mountains, the colors are distinct, and the scenery is spectacular.
As Gao Yihuan expected, the Manchus did contact Gushi Khan and asked him to attack Guanzhong from behind and kill the Wei army by mistake.
At first, Gushi Khan was very moved, he gathered troops and horses, prepared to enter the pass in Mobei Mongolia, and after containing the strength of the Wei army, he took the opportunity to seize Xining, Lanzhou, Gongchang and other prefectures, plundering money, grain, materials and slaves, to enhance the strength of Heshute Mongolia.
It's just that Gushi Khan didn't wait for the news that Mobei Mongolia invaded Guanzhong, but he got the news that the Western Wei raided the Hetao, defeated the Ordos department, and captured a large number of people, cattle and sheep.
The Western Wei State made such a decisive attack proved that the Western Wei was not easy to mess with, and not everyone could be bullied, which made the surrounding Mongolian tribes feel a trace of awe.
Gushi Khan was well aware of the strength of the Heshute tribe, and although the entire khanate controlled the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the control was very limited.
The Mongol Khanate was not a centralized regime, but a loose tribal confederation in which the Heshut tribe had to take the lead and go into battle in person, not to drive other tribes.
In such a form of government, it is difficult to compete with a powerful centralized dynasty, and if it is defeated, the regime will collapse immediately.
Therefore, after Gushi Khan learned that Hetao had been raided, he immediately disbanded the various troops and horses that had been recruited, and returned to their respective homes, preparing to return to Lhasa as if nothing had happened, so as not to be discovered by the Western Wei State and attract an attack by the Western Wei.
He was only halfway through when he received a report that the armies of the Western Wei State began to enter the Qinghai Lake area and encroach on his territory.
In this regard, Gushi Khan was a little weak-hearted, so he could only swallow his anger and let the Western Wei State operate in the area east of Qinghai Lake, hoping that the pace of the Western Wei would stop near Qinghai Lake.
However, his hopes were soon dashed, and the Western Wei state not only continued to infiltrate to the southwest, but also recruited many remnants of the Karma Kagyu sect and the Zangpa Khan, which he could not tolerate.
It's just that Heshuote's strength, Gu Shi Khan knows in his heart that it is absolutely impossible to face the Western Wei Kingdom alone, so he can only forbear.
Gu Shi Khan is very good at forbearance and is very good at seizing the opportunity.
At that time, he first saw the opportunity to enter Qinghai, and then with the help of the internal contradictions of the Tibetans, he entered Us-Tibet, thus establishing the Heshute Mongol Khanate, which unified the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Although the expansion of the Western Wei Kingdom made him feel very anxious, he knew very well in his heart that the time had not yet come for him to make a move, as long as the time came, everything in Qinghai of the Western Wei Dynasty would be his.
If the wolf doesn't make a move, it's enough, and once he shoots, he will be killed.
Sure enough, after waiting for several months, the envoy of the Great Qing Kingdom arrived again, and he knew that the opportunity had come.
At this time, in the sweat tent of Gushi Khan, there was a fat sheep in the middle, and the generals of Heshute Mongolia sat around to discuss the military situation.
Outside the tent, more than a dozen scarred men were hung on the shelves, and the Mongolian soldiers were beating them with leather whips, whipping them one by one, and a scream came into the tent, but the Mongols in the tent turned a deaf ear.
At this time, Gu Shi Khan, who was wearing a pointed felt hat and iron armor, picked up the barley wine, and said to Duoduo, who was bare-headed and pigtailed on the side: "Please rest assured, the regent, this time the Heshute Mongols will fully cooperate with the Qing Dynasty and eliminate the Western Wei Kingdom." ”
After Duoduo was recalled to Beijing, he was raised another level without suspense, and his title was reduced to Beizi, which was lower than many later sorrows, and Bolo, who was masturbated to the ground by him, became the same level.
In the last Wei-Qing war, Bolo performed well, was seriously wounded, and was set up as a model by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, restoring the title of Beizi, while Duoduo was demoted all the way from prince to Beizi.
This made him deeply ashamed, and he had no face to stay in Beijing, so he begged Dorgon to give him an errand, and ran to Qinghai to supervise the army.
Previously, the many military operations presided over by the Dolgon faction were not successful, and the men and horses of the Dolgon faction fought one after another, which consumed huge amounts and needed to rest, so this military operation against the Western Wei Dynasty was presided over by the men and horses of the Haoge faction.
On the one hand, his men needed to recuperate and had to rely on Hauge and Zilharang, and at the same time, he was worried that Hauge and Zilharang would greatly increase their prestige because of this operation, so he gave Duoduo a chance to contact Gushi Khan and attack Western Wei from the flank.
Qinghai this way, completely Gushi Khan's troops, the Manchu Qing did not need any investment, and there was still a lot of merit if they did a good job, not allowing Haoge and Zilharang to take over the great credit, and at the same time, it could also restore the status of Duoduo and give Dolgon a big help.
Under these circumstances, Duoduo became an envoy of the Manchu Qing and came to Qinghai to supervise the war against the Shuote Mongols.
Duoduo listened to Gushi Khan's words, and the anger on his face was terrifying, "Gushi Khan, this time just wait for the northern front to start the war, and the army will immediately set off and go straight to Xi'an, and then Longyou and Hehuang can give it to you!" ”
After speaking, the two of them picked up the golden bowl and drank the wine.
While they were talking in their tents, a pair of Mongol cavalrymen galloped into the camp.
The first Mongolian centurion, before the horse stopped, jumped off the horse, trotted to the outside of the tent, lifted the tent curtain, and rushed into the tent.
The people who were holding the wine bowl in the tent looked at him in unison, and Gu Shihan looked unhappy and asked, "What is the alarm?" ”
The centurion was not panicked, but was too excited, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, pointed to the northeast direction, panting like a cow and said: "Da ~ Great Khan ~ Wan Hu is in He'er, surrounding Gao Yihuan, the king of Western Wei!" ”
"What?" The wine bowl in Duoduo's hand fell on the table, his eyes instantly stabbed, Huo Ran got up and said, "What? You say you are surrounding Gao Yihuan? ”
The centurion nodded heavily, "It's surround Gao Yihuan, it's true." As he spoke, he took out a folded flag from his chest, "This is Gao Yihuan's banner, he ran in a hurry and was captured by us." ”
Dodor stepped forward to take the flag, unfolded it, and his heart shook wildly, and he burst out laughing.
"Gushi Khan, a godsend!" Duoduo suddenly restrained his wild laughter, staring at Gu Shi Khan with fire in his eyes, "Hurry up and send troops, you can't let Gao Manzi escape!" ”
Gu Shi Khan was a little hesitant in his heart, he was holding on to the heart of picking up cheap, to intervene in the war between Wei and Qing.
Duoduo seemed to see Gu Shi Khan's thoughts, and immediately said: "Gu Shi Khan, why did Gao Manzi come to Qinghai?" The Western Wei Dynasty is bound to make a move in Qinghai, how can you retreat at this time? Catch Gao Yihuan, the Western Wei Dynasty will inevitably be in chaos, what are you hesitating about? ”
There was silence in the big tent, Gu Shihan's cheeks agitated, Gao Yihuan appeared in Qinghai, most likely because he realized that he was in danger, and he was bound to attack him, so he might as well seize the opportunity to strike first and solve Gao Yihuan. Besides, it's all around, can't it be released?
In an instant, Gushi Khan stood up and waved his hand suddenly, "Okay, gather all the nearby tribes, pounce on He'er, if you capture Gao Yihuan alive, you will directly tie him up and kill Xi'an!" ”
When Duoduo heard this, his face was immediately overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to fly to He'er immediately to meet Gao Yihuan.
