Chapter 930 The history of blood and tears of the Golden Family
The Ezhe mentioned by the commander was the eldest son of Lin Dan Khan, and the legitimate heir of the Mongolian Golden Family.
This Ezhe has a noble identity, but he is indeed a hard-working child, his son Lin Dan Khan has a noble identity and a great dream, but he has no ability to match his dream.
If you want to talk about the origin of Lin Dan Khan, we must first start with the unlucky child Emperor Yuan Shun, when Zhu Yuanzhang went on the Northern Expedition, Emperor Yuan Shun was beaten back to his hometown in Mongolia. After these Yuan Dynasty royal families returned to their hometowns, they were bound to encroach on the pastures and land of the old nobles on the grassland, causing a contradiction between the bright and the dark, and the Yuan Shun Emperor and his descendants relied on the loyal Chahar Department to gain a firm foothold in their homeland in the environment of rebellion and turmoil.
The Chahar tribe was historically known as the central Mongolian Wanhu, and was a direct tribe of the Mongol Great Khan in the Northern Yuan Dynasty. The word Chahar is derived from the Persian word for guard, which was later transliterated into Mongolian. Therefore, the predecessor of the Chahar Department was Genghis Khan's Guard, which was known as the "Blade of the Sword, the Side of the Armor". Although the establishment of the Cowardly Xue Army is only 10,000 people, everyone is of noble birth, and his father must at least have the position of the head of a hundred households. In addition to escorting the Khan, they were also responsible for the weapons, carriages, horses, tents, and clerical work of the Khan's court, and were not only personal bodyguards, but also high-ranking officials.
Initially, the Xue Army was only a force to maintain the rule of the Golden Family, but because of its various political privileges, it gradually evolved into a special interest group, that is, the Chahar Ministry.
With the protection of the Chahar Ministry, Emperor Yuan Shun finally gained a firm foothold in his Mongolian hometown. Twenty years later, when the grandson of Emperor Yuan Shun, Usahar Khan, served as the emperor of the Northern Yuan, the tent of the Khan was set up in the area of Lake Baikal, in an autumn full of wind and sand, the unlucky golden family was attacked again by the Ming general Lan Yu led an army of 150,000, the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was killed by his subordinates, and then more than 100 concubines and princesses, 3,000 officials, 70,000 people, 150,000 horses, cattle and sheep, as well as a large number of seals, books, weapons, and vehicles of the Yuan Dynasty emperor, were captured by the Ming army.
As a result of this fiasco, Genghis Khan's direct descendants, the "Golden Family", completely lost their supremacy, most of the Mongol tribes declared independence, and most of the enthroned Northern Yuan emperors became puppets of powerful warlords. At the same time, the Oirat Mongols, who originated in the upper reaches of the Yenisei River, were not related to Genghis Khan by blood, but were only one of the converts.
Its leader was also named the Northern Yuan "Taishi", but became the real Khan of the Mongolian steppe, especially in the "Tumubao Change" to eliminate hundreds of thousands of Ming Dynasty elites, capture Ming Yingzong, but also shock the entire steppe, its sphere of influence from the Great Khing'an Mountains in the east, to the Green Mountains in the west, to Lake Baikal in the north, and to the desert in the south.
Since then, the "Golden Family" has been cowering in a corner, relying on people to breathe and linger, and only a few loyal Chahar Mongol tribes accompany them. It wasn't until the advent of Batu Monk that all this began to change.
Batu Monk means "always fruitful" in Mongolian. In 1479, the Mongol Mandulu Khan died childless, leaving only his great-nephew, seven-year-old Batu Munk, a poor orphan who was fostered in a poor herdsman's home. In order to maintain the khan rule of the golden family, Manduhai the queen of Mandulu Khan resolutely married Batu Munk and supported him to inherit the throne of Khan, called the Great Khan of the Great Yuan. In the history books of the Ming Dynasty, he was given a more resounding name "The Little Prince".
Based on the loyal Chahar Wanhu, the little prince continued to unite and absorb the surrounding Mongol tribes, and finally defeated Warat in the distant area of Lake Ubusa and re-established the authority of the Great Khan. After the pro-government, he abolished the official systems such as Taishi and Pingzhang left over from the Yuan Dynasty, restored the Jinong and Noyan systems in the era of Genghis Khan, and then conquered Ordos, Tumut and other departments, and controlled the Khalkha Department, the Uliangha Department, the Horqin Department and the Duoyan Sanwei, ending the situation of secession and unifying the Mongolian headquarters.
Until now, the title of the Great Khan of Mongolia has returned to the descendants of Genghis Khan, but no matter how powerful the little prince is, he will die, and after his death, the Mongolian tribes were divided again, until Lin Dan Khan ascended the throne.
Lin Dan Khan, whose real name is Lin Dan Batur, is a descendant of Genghis Khan and the seventh grandson of the little prince, who inherited the throne at the age of thirteen and is known as Khutuktu Khan. After Lin Dan Khan succeeded to the throne, the power of the Mongol khanate was in vain, and the Korqin, Nekhalkha, Tumut, and Ordos tribes in Monan were in charge of their own affairs, and they were only nominally co-masters. The Trans-Khalkha of Mobei did not recognize the Mongol Great Khan as the co-master, and the Moxi Weirat Mongols were still enemies of Lin Dan Khan, and at the same time, the Jianzhou Jurchens in Liaodong gradually completed the unification, established the Houjin, and were staring at Lin Dan Khan with fierce eyes, and even beheaded the envoys he sent.
At this time, the only thing that Lin Dan Khan could trust and control was the loyal Chahar Ministry. It was with the power of Chahar that Lin Dan Khan completed a Jedi counterattack. He endured the humiliation of the Jianzhou Jurchen Nurhachi, and did not even pursue the ministers who defected to the Houjin, but resolutely led the Chahar tribe to return to his homeland to the west, determined to first restore the unity of the Mongolian steppe, re-establish the glory of Genghis Khan, and then resist the encroachment of the Houjin.
After full preparations, Lin Dan Khan defeated the Mongolian tribes such as the Harashen Department and the Tumut Department, and occupied the Chahar hometown again, stationed outside the Xuanfu and the Great Wall.
In order to deal with the Manchus, Lin Dan Khan continued to maintain a cooperative relationship with the Ming Dynasty, and sent troops to contain the Manchus many times.
However, all this has changed since the conceited emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, after Chongzhen ascended the throne, he listened to the slander of those civilian officials in the court who did not know the military situation, and at the same time in order to save military expenses on the battlefield of Liaodong, so he stopped the economic support for Lin Dan Khan, and even killed the ministers sent by Lin Dan Khan to receive the reward.
Without the support of the Ming Dynasty, Lin Dan Khan had only 50,000 fresh troops left after years of war, struggling with poverty and injury. Lin Dan Khan had no choice but to run all the way west to Qinghai, and finally contracted smallpox and died there.
After the death of Lin Dan Khan, the Jin soldiers took advantage of the fog to surround the camp of Lin Dan Khan's son Ezhe, who surrendered to the jade seal of the Great Yuan, and Genghis Khan's golden family finally lost the grassland.
After Lin Dan Khan's death, almost all of his Fujin people remarried, some people found their own way to survive, and some people took their property and subordinates to Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji was very good, not only accepted the surrender of Lin Dan Khan's many blessings, but also accepted a few blessings himself, and the other blessings were assigned to the eight banners of Manchuria as concubines.
Su Tai Fu Jin history called Su Tai Empress Dowager, this woman is Ezhe's mother-in-law. This Fujin is not a Mongol but a Manchu, her surname is Yehenara, and after the surrender of the Empress Dowager Sutai, she remarried Huang Taiji's cousin Jierharang. She is the sister of Zilharang's late successor Fujin. The Empress Dowager Sutai was young, beautiful and rich, and at that time, the Great Belle Daishan fell in love with her and wanted to marry her, but Huang Taiji did not let Daishan get his wish, but married the Empress Dowager Sutai to Zilharang.
And Lin Dan Khan also has a blessing called Namu Zhong, she was regarded by Huang Taiji as the concubine of Huang Taiji, at that time Namu Zhong was already pregnant with Lin Dan Khan's widow, and was born to the last Chahar Prince Abu Nai. However, in this plane, Abu Nai has no chance to be a prince.
After Zhu Hongsan occupied Beijing, except for Emperor Shunzhi who escaped with a few people, all the other ladies became Zhu Hongsan's prisoners. These women all belonged to Zhu Hongsan, and the natural wife accused Zhu Hongsan of not being polite, and selected a few young and beautiful women to enrich his harem.
Because of the charm of this Namu Zhong, he changed to a new husband again at the age of thirty-four and became Zhu Hongsan's little wife, so Zhu Hongsan is indeed the godfather of the new Mongolian Great Khan Ezhe in this regard.
Since it is a relative, it is easy to do, Zhu Hongsan said to Hu Tu with a smile: "Why didn't my son come to see my godfather!" ”
Mongolian is different from Chinese, and the translated godfather has become the meaning of the elder, and Hu Tu saw that the Ming emperor was already fifty years old, and it was nothing to say that he was an elder of the Great Khan, so he didn't take it to heart.
"Respected Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the Great Khan of my family sent me to contact the Ming Dynasty first, if the Great Emperor of the Ming Dynasty agrees to form an alliance, the Great Khan of my family will naturally come to meet the Great Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Hongsan listened to what Hu Tu said about putting Ezhe and himself on the same level, Zhu Hongsan sneered in his heart, your Chahar Department has been suppressed by the Manchu Qing for so many years, probably those cavalry are all your strength, and this strength also wants to be on an equal footing with Lao Tzu?
Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, "No problem, you go back and tell my son, let him rest assured to come to see Lao Tzu!" ”
This time, Zhu Hongsan didn't use his godfather but used the title of Lao Tzu's son, and now Hu Tu can understand, it turns out that this fat emperor of the Ming Dynasty wants to be his own Khan.
Hu Tu said angrily: "Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, why did you insult my Great Khan, my Great Khan has the blood of the Golden Family, and his status is extremely noble, the father of my Great Khan is the Great Khan of Mongolia Hutuketu, and he is not the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty at all!" ”
Hu Tu turned around and was about to leave after speaking, but Zhu Hongsan could let him go like this!
Jin Yiwei stepped forward to stop the five Mongols, and Zhu Hongsan said with a smile: "What? Is my Ming army camp where you can come and leave as you want? Since you're here, you're going to leave something behind! ”
Jinyiwei got Zhu Hongsan's order, and more than a dozen people came out, held down Hu Tu and five others, and cut off their noses.
Seeing Hu Tu who had no nose, Zhu Hongsan smiled and said: "Go back and tell my son, I know that his life is not good, if you want to drink wine and eat meat, don't put on a stinky shelf of sweating, honestly come over and say hello to Lao Tzu, you must know that Lin Dan's second son Abu Nai can be in Lao Tzu's hands, and if Lao Tzu is unhappy, he will directly set up a bullshit sweat!" ”
The interpreter translated Zhu Hongsan's words to Hu Tu, and then drove the five unlucky people out of the Ming army camp, Hu Tu and others covered their noses and rode back to the Mongolian army.
