As for the northern border of Dajin now, Huang Taiji doesn't know who else to rob.

The savage Jurchen in the lower reaches of the Songhua River and the Beishan Jurchen in the middle and lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River have been robbed once or even twice by his army in the past few years.

Moreover, most of those tribes today have already belonged to him.

Those who did not belong to them are now far away to the farther north.

Under such circumstances, leading a large army to plunder them again is simply a deal that outweighs the losses.

As for the more recent northern regions, in the third year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, that is, the fourth year of Tiancong on the side of the Later Jin Kingdom, Huang Taiji had already relocated the newly compiled Mongols from the Eastern Mongolian steppe to the territory of the Jurchens in Haixi.

These people do not know how to produce, fish and hunt, and in the drought and famine from last autumn and winter to the present, the population has suffered serious losses, and they are already very poor.

Huang Taiji didn't go to help these newly formed Mongolian Four Banners who moved east, it was already very unspeakable, how could he rob them again?

And even if it's a robbery, what can you grab?!

These Four Banner Mongols, who moved to the upper reaches of the Songhua River, have reached the point of killing and eating the horses they value the most, what else can they rob?

All of this, taken together, forced Huang Taiji to the edge of the cliff, and he had no way out except to find another way.

The land of the Han people in the Later Jin Kingdom had long since become the banner fields of the Jurchen Eight Banners, and there were no Han landlords and villages that allowed them to slaughter and plunder at will.

Today, of course, there are still many Han people in the Later Jin country, but these Han people only exist in the Jurchen Eight Banners nobles, as well as the Eight Banners and the Granges of the Armored People, all of whom are the private property of these Jurchens, that is, clothed minions.

The killing of poor ghosts, which is suddenly and quietly prevalent now, does not actually get anything from it except to reduce the cost of rations for the Jurchens.

Let's say that the heavy snow that day did not stop until the evening.

And after Huang Taiji spoke on the Phoenix Tower of the Khan's palace, the conversation between him and Zhezhe and Da Yu'er about the Horqin Left Banner became relatively easy.

Huang Taiji asked Zhezhe and Da Yu'er to write letters respectively, and soon sent people to the place where the Horqin Left Banner was stationed north of Chaganhot.

He asked Zhezhe and Da Yu'er to tell Beile Zhaisang, the owner of the Horqin Left Banner, that he, the Tiancong Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom, not only knew about the promotion of Hari Zhula to the noble concubine and the Manzhu Xili in the Southern Dynasty, and the two of them were treated favorably and had a prominent status, but he also knew the fact that a caravan from the Southern Dynasty went north to Chaganhot to trade with the Horqin Left Banner.

At the same time, he also asked Zhezhe and Da Yu'er to tell Zhai Sang that this was a good thing, and that he, the Tiancong Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom, had no intention of asking the Horqin Left Banner for his guilt or holding him accountable.

On the contrary, the Tiancong Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom also hoped to use this channel of the Horqin Left Banner, especially through the communication channel between Zhaisang and the concubine of the little emperor of the Southern Dynasty, Hari Zhula, to express his sincerity in discussing peace and trade with the little emperor of the Southern Dynasty.

Moreover, he was willing to negotiate peace with the envoys sent by the little emperor of the Southern Dynasty without mentioning any conditions while maintaining the current status quo in Liaodong.

It doesn't matter if the goal of peace between the two countries will not be achieved for a while, and he, the Tiancong Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom, hopes that the Horqin Left Banner can act as a trade intermediary between the Dajin Kingdom and the merchants of the Southern Dynasties.

Emperor Tiancong of the Dajin Kingdom was willing to hand over the mountains of mink ginseng and a large number of precious Dongzhu in the country to the Horqin Left Banner to sell to the merchants of the Southern Dynasty, so as to exchange the grain, tea, salt and iron that were in short supply in Dajin from the merchants of the Southern Dynasty.

Regarding Huang Taiji's request, Zhezhe and Da Yuer of course agreed to it.

Because, this is extremely beneficial to them, as well as to their mother's home Horqin Left Banner.

For them, once the Dajin Kingdom and the Ming Dynasty achieve peace, then the current Horqin Left Banner will be the biggest winner.

Even if the peace between the two countries cannot be realized for a while, then as long as the Horqin Left Banner monopolizes the trade between the Ming Dynasty and the Dajin Kingdom, then the Horqin Left Banner is still the winner.

In this life, Huang Taiji's newly compiled Mongolian Eight Banners in Geljurgen did not adopt the later strategy.

In other words, he did not completely copy the system of the Jurchen Eight Banners, and organized the Mongolian tribes into the eight Mongolian flags of yellow and yellow, red and red, white and white, and blue and blue.

They have not yet dared to set up Jurchen banner masters in the Mongolian Eight Banners, let them be placed side by side with the Mongolian flag masters, and completely become the masters of the Mongols under them.

Because of this life, Huang Taiji's Jurchen Eight Banners army not only lost Korea in the east, but also did not conquer Monan as smoothly as in history, and suffered heavy losses in the process of attacking the Ming Dynasty.

Under such a situation, although Huang Taiji also gave birth to the idea of organizing them into the Eight Banners and incorporating them into the Eight Banners system on the issue of dealing with the Han people in Mongolia and the Later Jin Dynasty, and adopted a corresponding strategy, in the specific implementation process, it was much more relaxed and relaxed.

After the Horqin tribes, such as Alu Korqin, Naowen Horqin and the left and right wings of Horqin, were unified and reorganized into the four banners of Horqin, the original leaders of the Horqin tribe in the Later Jin country have been upgraded, and those who were originally Taiji are now Beile, and those who were originally Beile have further become Heshuo Beile.

At the same time, they continued to be the owners of their banners, and apart from the management and command of the Zhenghuang Banner Yamen and Gushan Ezhen and the Governor-General, they maintained their independence to a considerable extent.

Huang Taiji did not send the so-called Manchurian banner lord or minister in charge to the Eight Banners of the Mongols and the Eight Banners of the Han Army, as was the case in history.

This is also one of the reasons why the leaders of the four tribes of Horqin, such as Jaisang, were able to accept the reorganization into the Eight Banners system at that time.

However, even so, Huang Taiji was not completely ignorant of the affairs of the four banners before and after Horqin.

At the very least, some of the major situations in the Horqin Four Banners, Huang Taiji, even if he is thousands of miles away in the Khan Palace of Shenyang City, is still more or less timely or lagging behind, and he can always understand and grasp it.

Because of the frequent intermarriage and marriage between the upper echelons of the Jurchen Eight Banners and the various tribes of Horqin, and because of the prestige of the Jurchens among the various tribes of Horqin, there are many people who report to Huang Taiji among the four banners of Horqin.

Therefore, when Manzhu Xili's henchman Hasgan took Emperor Chongzhen's imperial attendants Yang Zhen and Deng Tianhe and others, as well as the caravan sent by the Internal Affairs Office, to Chaganhot and came to the place where the Horqin Left Banner was stationed soon after, the news of the trade between the Horqin Left Banner and the Ming Dynasty caravan spread.

Although in the face of the earnest inquiries of the owners of the front and rear banners and the right banner of Horqin, the owner of the left banner of Horqin, Jaisambel, tried in every possible way to cover up this fact, but he could not hide it at all.

First, Yang Zhen, Deng Tianhe and others did not mean to keep the whereabouts of their group strictly secret.

Second, although Jaisangbel could order the leaders of the Horqin Left Banner to shut up, he could not control the Korqin Right Banner Banner Master Kongolbel and his subordinates, who were not far from his pasture.

Huang Taiji married the daughter of Bel Kongol of the Horqin Right Banner, and the purpose was naturally to find another ally for himself in the Horqin grassland.

Moreover, this ally is used to guard against and balance the Korqin Left Banner Jaisambel.

For this point, there is no need for Huang Tai Jiming to say, and Kong Guoerbele, who has newly become one of Huang Taiji's fathers-in-law, spares no effort to do it.

Because the left wing of Horqin has always been the highest status of the Horqin tribes in the Dajin State in the past.

The higher the status, the more benefits.

This point has long made Kongolbel red-eyed.

Now his daughter has also become the Fujin of the Dajin Kingdom, and the position of his East Palace Fujin is still above the West Palace Fujin of Bumu Butai, the daughter of Zhaisang, which makes Kong Guoer Belle dutiful for his role.

After hearing the news that a Ming Dynasty caravan had gone to Chaganhot to trade, the owners of the two banners in front and behind Horqin did not think that there was any collusion between the Horqin Left Banner and the Ming Dynasty to beware of, but that they could take this opportunity to trade with the Ming caravan in the north.

Different from the front and rear banners of Horqin, as soon as Kong Guoer heard that the left banner of Horqin had contact with the caravan from the north of the Ming Dynasty, he immediately sent people to Shenyang to make a small report to Huang Taiji.

When the Houjin Kingdom held the Zhengdan pilgrimage of the fifth year of Tiancong, Kong Guoerbeile, the owner of the Horqin Right Banner, went to Shenyang City in person and reported these situations to Huang Taiji in person.

At the same time, taking the opportunity of going to Shenyang to make a pilgrimage to Huangtaiji, Kong Guoer also spread the news of the Horqin Left Banner colluding with the Southern Dynasties in the city of Shenyang.

And the situation of Jin Guotiancong's fifth year of Zhengdan after the absence of Zhaisang, the owner of the Horqin Left Banner, seems to have confirmed the news that Kong Guoer brought to Shenyang, which made the Jurchen Eight Banner nobles in the city full of doubts about the Horqin Left Banner, and the calls for punishment of Zhaisang also rose one after another.

If he had violated his authority, Huang Taiji would have punished him for the crime of disrespect.

However, this time he didn't, because now such a Horqin Left Banner is a rare opportunity for him to break the comprehensive blockade of the Ming Dynasty.

Let's say that five days after the conversation between Huang Taiji and his eldest concubine Zhezhe and Xigong Fujin Bumu Butai on the Phoenix Tower, Beile Zhaisang, the owner of the Mongolian banner of the Horqin Left Banner in Chaganhot, thousands of miles northwest of Shenyang City, received a letter from his sister and daughter.
