Just when Chongzhen was studying the battle plan in the tent, a young non-commissioned officer reported to him the news of the visit of the Houjin envoy, and Yuan Chonghuan did not dare to be arbitrary, so he sent someone to ask the emperor how to deal with it.

After listening to the report, Zhu Youzhen's eyes moved away from the sand table, he did not rush to reply, but asked the young non-commissioned officer: "You have also studied at the Army Military Academy for more than a year, I will test you, if you are our commander, how should you fight this battle?" ”

After the young and vigorous Xu Du glanced at the situation between the enemy and us on the sand table, he couldn't help but blurt out: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister will definitely outflank the other party's two wings and compress the opponent's range of activities." Cavalry is different from infantry, the wider the area, the more open it is for the cavalry, the number of cavalry on the other side is more than ours, if it is confined to a small area, even if it has ten points of combat power, it can only exert four or five points. ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at the sand table again, nodded slightly, and then continued: "Let Yuan Chonghuan lead people to the big tent of the Chinese army, and then spread the generals and leaders of all armies to be present, so that everyone can listen to what Huang Taiji wants to say to us..."

After being brought into the Chinese army's tent of the Ming army, Sony was also a little surprised to see the crowd crowded in the tent. He originally thought that the emperor would receive him in private, and first judge his intentions before deciding whether to make it public, but he didn't expect that the other party would arrange such a big scene to entertain him.

The skills of the Ming craftsmen were obviously better than those of the Later Jin and Mongolian people, and hundreds of people stayed in such a tent without feeling crowded and stuffy. Under the malicious gaze of the Ming and Mongolian generals on both sides, Sonny and Ah Zhuhu walked to a place ten steps in front of the emperor's throne and stopped.

Sonny was okay, he had been by Nurhachi's side since he was a child, and he knew that these were just a small test given to them by the Akito, to test their courage in order to gain the initiative in the next conversation, so he quickly adjusted his mood and calmed down.

But Ah Zhuhu beside him was not from a famous family, but was promoted to a guard by relying on martial arts and loyalty to Huang Taiji. In this malicious environment, it quickly became impetuous.

In front of the emperor, Sonny naturally couldn't warn Ah Zhuhu, he could only pretend to ignore Ah Zhuhu, who was nervous and excited, and after kneeling down to Chongzhen on the throne in front of him, he took out the letter in his arms and explained his intention.

Chongzhen, who was sitting on the throne casually, did not order someone to pick up the letter in his hand after listening to Sony's intention, but said lazily: "Since it is your Khan's handwritten letter, then you can read it out in public."

There seems to be no personal relationship between me and Huang Taiji, since it is a business matter, there is nothing that cannot be said to outsiders. Let me and my subjects hear what Huang Taiji wants to say to me. ”

Although Sonny was tempted to point out that some of the Chahar Mongols in the tent were not subjects of the Emperor, the words turned around his throat a few times before he finally swallowed them.

Sonny didn't admit that he was afraid, and he told himself that this mission to the Ming army camp was not to deliberately provoke the immeasurable young man opposite. So after hesitating for a moment, Sonny finally tore open the letter in his hand and read out the contents of the letter in front of Chongzhen and everyone.

After listening to the reason that Huang Taiji made up for his trip to the Chahar Department, Chongzhen immediately sat up straight and reprimanded Sony: "It's completely nonsense, I originally thought that after Nurhachi, Huang Taiji was also a reasonable person, but I didn't expect him to be so messing around, reversing black and white, it's shameless..."

When Sonny hadn't figured out how to deal with Chongzhen's reprimand, Ah Zhuhu, who had entered the account with him to see the emperor, finally couldn't help jumping up, and retorted to Chongzhen with angry eyebrows: "My Great Khan respectfully wrote a letter to the emperor, but the emperor humiliated my Great Khan in front of us so indiscriminately, is this also the act of the King of Virtue..."

Just as Ah Zhuhu jumped up, several imperial guards stepped forward and held down his hands and feet, and two more guards held down Sonny, who had not moved.

Zhu Youzhen motioned for the guards to let go of Sony, and then asked him coldly: "Huang Taiji just said in the letter that within the territory of China, Da Ming is the eldest brother, Hou Jin is the second brother, and countries such as Chahar are all younger brothers.

Lin Dan Khan attacked the right-wing tribes of Transkhalkha for no reason, and his second brother received a request for help from the right-wing tribes, so he sent troops to teach Lin Dan Khan a lesson.

Since Erguo thinks that he is a part of China, he should also know what it means to respect the elders and the young, why would Huang Taiji send such a disrespectful elder, is this how Huang Taiji taught his subordinates etiquette?

Regardless of dignity and inferiority, good and evil, rude and arrogant, this is the nature of barbarism, why does the country claim to be a part of China? ”

Sony was also shocked by such a change. However, he couldn't care about Ah Zhuhu, who was subdued and gagged by the Ming people on the side, and began to work hard to defend Hou Jin Fei Barbarian.

In the end, Sony was born in the literary museum, and after quoting the classics, it is also the head of the Jianzhou Jurchen why is it a part of China. Although there are civil officials such as Yuan Chonghuan in the big tent, there is no historical origin of the Jianzhou Jurchen in the scriptures and meanings they are familiar with, so it makes Sony show his face greatly.

However, Chongzhen obviously did not expect to expel Houjin from China with his tongue, and after listening to Sony's defense for a while, he interrupted him and asked, "Then in Erguo, how should such a person who commits crimes be dealt with?" ”

Sonny's body stiffened, and he said for a long time: "If a slave offends his master, he will be whipped and punished, and he will be hanged at worst." ”

Zhu Youzhen said unceremoniously: "Since Huang Taiji calls me Da Ming his brother, this person's rudeness to me is rude to Huang Taiji, and he should be hanged."

However, the two countries are at war and do not kill the envoys, although the envoys of the country do not know the etiquette, but I am not observant. Drag it down, whip thirty, and a little let them bring the man back. ”

After this small episode, the atmosphere in the big tent suddenly became delicate. With the public whipping of the Houjin envoy, the Ming and Meng soldiers in the camp had clearly understood the emperor's determination that it was impossible to compromise on this big battle.

Although the Mongol chiefs in the Great Tent already knew that this war was inevitable, this did not mean that they had already determined their minds to fight to the end against the Houjin-Mongol alliance on the opposite side. They were still waiting for the emperor's answer to Hou Jin's letter.

After solving the small episode just now, Zhu Youzhen stood up from the throne, he paced back and forth in front of the throne and thought before he said to Sony.

"I won't write any reply, I have a few words here, you can take them back and tell the four Baylors.

First, Lin Dan Khan is the Khan of the Chahar tribe and the Great Khan of the Mongolian tribes, which is not only recognized by the Mongolian tribes, but also recognized by our Ming Dynasty, and cannot be erased by the strong words of the Erguo country.

Second, the Mobei grassland is the land of the Mongol Yuan, not the land of the Trans-Khalkha tribes, and Lin Dan Khan, as the Great Khan of Mongolia, naturally has the right to meddle in the affairs of the Mobei grassland.

As far as I know, Lin Dan Khan's trip to Mobei this time was at the invitation of Kyuktu Khan to mobilize the contradictions between the left and right tribes of Transkhalkha.

What is the difference between the country sending troops to invade the places of the Mongol tribes and attacking the Great Khan, which is recognized by the Mongol tribes, but claiming to have received an invitation from the right wing of Transkhalkha, and the robbers who colluded with other people's domestic slaves and murdered their masters? ”

The emperor's words immediately resonated with several leaders of the Chahar Ministry, and they all reprimanded Sonny for his shamelessness, and even the leaders of the Mongolian right-wing tribes, who had always looked down on Lin Dan Khan, were also on the side of the Chahar Department at this moment.

Sony is not Zhuge Liang, and he can't do the ability to fight the Confucians. Moreover, these Mongolian leaders are not Confucian scholars, and they don't want to talk to him about any big reason, and when they open their mouths, they are a bunch of foul language, forcing Sony to keep silent.

Zhu Youzhen waited for these Mongols to breathe a sigh before continuing to say to Sony: "Third, it is true that my Ming and Houjin have concluded a peace agreement, but the purpose of concluding the peace agreement is to let my Chinese people live and work in peace and contentment, not to connive at Erguo to provoke wars everywhere and displace our Chinese people.

The reason why our Ming sent troops today is because our country has broken the peace agreement, not because our Ming Dynasty has broken the peace agreement. Is the place where the ** team is stationed in Houjin's territory? ”

Sony hurriedly distinguished: "Although Mongolia is not the land of my Houjin, but it is not the land of the Ming Dynasty, my country is here to punish the Chahar Department, not to fight with the Ming Dynasty, but also to ask the emperor to investigate."

Besides, the emperor ordered our country to stop the war by allowing the Chinese people to live and work in peace and contentment. However, as far as the minister knows, when the Ming Dynasty was strong, he also went out of the fortress several times to conquer the Mongolian tribes, and when Mongolia was strong, it also entered the customs several times. Today, I will conquer the Chahar Department after Jin, can I not do it? ”

Zhu Youzhen said with a smile: "When people are young children, they are not ashamed to show their breasts, why do they refuse to go out without clothes when they reach adulthood?" Isn't this a very simple truth, everyone has grown up and become sensible?

In the past, Mongolia and the Ming Dynasty fought each other, because they were not mature and civilized enough, and they did not know that the Mongols and the Han people also enjoyed the same right to pursue a happy and beautiful life.

Today, both Han Chinese and Mongolians know that a happy and beautiful life is obtained through the labor of their own hands, rather than relying on the side doors.

Isn't it ridiculous that you Houjin don't think about how to gain wealth through labor, but blindly want to plunder the fruits of their labor from the Han and Mongols to satisfy the enjoyment of a handful of robber leaders, but you still have to ask why you can't be robbers? ”

Sony was a little at a loss, there was no such reason in the books he had read, so he naturally didn't know how to refute Chongzhen. However, the leaders of the Mongolian tribes in the tent were very happy when they heard it, and felt that their relationship with the Ming people was one step closer.

Zhu Youzhen finally summed up to Sony: "Finally, tell Erguo that the Mongolian people, like the Ming people, are the people of China. They will neither become the slaves of my Daming, nor will they become the slaves of Houjin.

As the monarch of China, I will not allow this to happen. Therefore, it is impossible for Erguo to put forward the proposal of dividing the left and right wings of Mongolia equally with our Ming Dynasty. It is my duty and duty to protect the right of the Ming people and the Mongolian people to pursue a happy life, and I will not make dealings with anyone on this point..."
