As for the Buyan Dynasty in the upper reaches of the Yalu River and along the Tumen River, the lack of food and clothing in its subordinates is even worse than the blue flag of Jierharang.

Vargashan City (near Yanji City, Jilin Province in later generations) and its surrounding large and small walled cities have been destroyed by the Ming army and the Korean coalition led by Chen Jisheng, Kong Youde, Yuan Doubi and others.

These semi-Jurchenized Eastern Mongolian tribes, which were placed by the Jurchens on the old land of the Jurchens in Haixi, suffered very heavy losses, a large number of people and livestock were killed, a large number of tribal villages were burned down, and the family property that had been accumulated for more than ten years was destroyed in one fell swoop.

Buyandai himself was a blessing in disguise and became the new leader of these large and small Jurchenhua tribes of Mongolian origin, and was promoted to Heshuo Belle by Huang Taiji.

Moreover, the Beile, the banner owners of the four Mongolian banners of the East and West Uzhumuqin Banner, Zalut Banner, and Zhagaite Banner, which were newly resettled here, and their subordinates, also obeyed the orders of Buyandai and obeyed his dispatch.

However, the life of the tribes under the command of Buyandai was extremely difficult.

Not only did many of the newly settled Mongol Four Banners want to flee to make a living, but even he, the commander who was ordered to lead the Mongolian tribes in this area and prevent the Ming army from crossing the river on the other side of the Tumen River, wanted to lead his troops to retreat.

Because since the establishment of the Tumen Town Guard Mansion on the other side of the Tumen River, there have been Han people from all walks of life in Dongjiang Town, with the tacit consent of the Tumen Town Guard, crossing the Tumen River and going to the Changbai Mountain on the other side of the river to pick pine nuts and pick ginseng.

This happened a lot in the past, but in the past, it was mostly North Koreans who crossed the river to the Changbai Mountains to collect pine nuts and ginseng.

These Koreans had no weapons and equipment, and they had no ability to protect themselves or resist when facing the Vargar (Jurchenized Uliangha) people who were guarding the area, and often fell into the hands of these Vargars and were sacrificed to the Jurchens.

These captured Koreans were either forced to learn a few Jurchen words, shaved their hair and braided their hair, dressed up as raw Jurchens, and sent to Hetuara or Shenyang, where they were to act as armor-clad men under the Jurchen Eight Banners, or they directly became Jurchens' clothed minions.

Varga Beleb Zhantai, who had previously been ordered by the Jurchens to guard this place, relied on this action to gain a pivotal position in the Later Jin Kingdom.

Now, the father and son of Buyandai have taken over the position of Bu Zhantai and have been ordered to lead the Jurchenized and large and small Mongolian tribes here, of course, he also wants to repeat his old tricks, but now he is facing the opponent of the Koreans, who are also of the Tungusic race, but the Han immigrants who came from the jurisdiction of the Wulu General Military Office in Dongjiang Town.

Of course, if these Han immigrants fall into the hands of the tribes under the command of the Buyan Dynasty, let alone shave their hair and braid, it should not be difficult for them to learn some Jurchen language and pretend to be raw Jurchens captured from the north.

If the tribes under the command of Buyandai are strong enough, then Bujantai leads the trade that the Vargars have done, and he can do the same with Buyandai.

It's just that now that the times have passed, the Han immigrants under the Fifth Road General Military Mansion in Dongjiang Town are not ordinary Han immigrants.

These people are all Han immigrants who have been armed intentionally or unintentionally, and they are not comparable to the unarmed Koreans of the past.

As early as the winter of the first year of Chongzhen, in order to strengthen the strength of the township soldiers and civilians under the Wulu General Military Office in Dongjiang Town, so that these Han immigrants have the ability to defend their newly opened homeland, Emperor Chongzhen once specially ordered that the Wulu General Military Office in Dongjiang Town release the ban on immigrants holding weapons.

Not only is it no longer prohibited, but the immigrants under the Andong Town Guard Mansion are encouraged to use the weapons eliminated and replaced by the Wulu General Military Office in Dongjiang Town to arm themselves.

Cold weapons, including leather armor, bows and arrows, were completely banned among the people in the jurisdiction of Dongjiang Town.

Later, with the equipment of Chongzhen's front-loading flintlock smoothbore gun, a large number of old-style bird guns, three-eyed guns and other firearms originally equipped by the Ming army in Dongjiang Town also began to flow into the 36 military cantons and 64 civilian cantons under the jurisdiction of the Fifth Route General Military Office.

In the winter of the third year of Chongzhen, many people in the military tun belonging to Dongjiang Town had all kinds of old-fashioned bird guns.

Even some people in Mintun couldn't get old-fashioned firearms, and at the worst, they all had some leather armor, cotton armor, knives, guns, bows and crossbows eliminated by the Ming army in Dongjiang Town.

These Han immigrants with weapons were far inferior to the battle-hardened regular army under the command of the Fifth Route General Military Office in Dongjiang Town.

However, they crossed the Tumen River westward in small groups and traveled many ways, and went into the mountains and woodlands to collect native products such as pine nuts and ginseng, but the Buyandai was overwhelmed.

Ye Keshu, one of the Zhenghongqi Gushan Ezhen who was stationed in Dong E City, repeatedly ordered the Buyandai father and son to clear out these Han Chinese armed forces who crossed the river in groups to collect ginseng, and asked the Buyandai father and son to wait for the opportunity to attack the Tumen Zhenshou Mansion, destroy the Ming army's strongholds, and drive away the Han people who dared to come here.

However, Buyandai and his uncle Ashitu and his son Omub learned the lessons of Vargarbel Bzhanthai.

This is not a Mongolian steppe, but a mountainous forest area full of high mountains and dense forests, where the tactics of cavalry detours and rushing battles that were popular among the Mongols in the past cannot be used at all.

Here, the so-called cavalry is nothing more than infantry on horseback, and horses are more often than a tool for rapid marching.

When it really came time for the two armies to fight, they all dismounted and fought in formation.

This kind of combat method is not familiar and good at the Mongols who were born in the steppe tribes of Eastern Mongolia under the command of the Buyan Dynasty.

Moreover, under such a mode of warfare, the men and horses under the command of Buyandai, who were only equipped with waist knives and bows and arrows, and had no muskets and heavy artillery at all, were simply the prey sent to the door in front of the Ming army of Dongjiang Town, which was equipped with more and more firearms, especially the Chongzhen front-loading flintlock smoothbore gun and the Franco machine mother gun, which had become the main force of weapons.

For these people, it is okay to let them set up some traps, play some ambushes, and even raid some unguarded Mintun in the mountains and forests north of Changbai Mountain, but if they are allowed to cross the Tumen River and storm several cities in the Tumen Town Guard Mansion with various forts and forts, it is obvious that they will be sent to death.

From the time of Nurhachi, the nobles and nobles of the Eight Banners of the Later Jin Kingdom had no good intentions when they placed the Mongolian tribes who were completely attached to the Later Jin Kingdom to the old land of the Jurchens in Haixi.

Now when Huang Taiji, the Khan of the Jin State, is in power, it is naturally the same, especially this time, after the army of the Ming State of the Southern Dynasty made a detour to the north of Korea to the mouth of the Tumen River, the original so-called big rear is no longer a safe and stable big rear.

If Buyandai, the Beizi of the Urut Tribe, hadn't seen this clearly, then after the war at the end of last winter, he saw it.

It turned out that the Varga people (Uliangha Mongols), who were the most powerful semi-Jurchen in this place, were heavily damaged by the Ming army that came from the surprise attack, and were subsequently incorporated into the armor of the Zhenghongqi army that then went north to meet the Ming army, and since then they have disappeared and ceased to exist.

The Buyandai, who had originally obeyed the orders of the Vargar people, was promoted by Huang Taiji and became the new Baylor, helping Huang Taiji to resist the attack from the east in this direction.

If he loses in the future, or if even a member of his tribe suffers a large loss, then someone else will immediately take his place and lead the various tribes that have been placed in this area to belong to the Mongols.

That's a given.

Buyandai, the leader of the Ulut tribe who once faced the threat of Lin Dan Khan, did not dare to confront it head-on, but led his troops to flee into the Houjin Kingdom and accept the protection of the Jurchens, where did he have the determination and courage to dare to confront the increasingly powerful Ming army of Dongjiang Town?!

Therefore, in Buyandai's heart, how many times have he secretly rejoiced that the newly established Tumen town guard of the Ming State was busy renovating the city and opening up the wasteland all day, and did not attack in the direction of Varga Mountain City again, otherwise, he would not even have a chance to rebuild Varga Mountain City.

As for the Han people-sheer teams who scattered across the border to collect pine nuts and dig mountain ginseng, they were scattered among the vast mountains and reckless forests.

And for the Ming army stationed in the Tumen Town, Buyandai is also a bit of a mouse-thrower.

If he sent out the main force to round up the armed contingent of Han people who had crossed the mountains and mountains to dig up mountain goods, and the Ming army of the Tumen town guard on the other side of the river would once again repeat their old tricks and attack the core places such as Varga Mountain City, wouldn't it be worth the loss? !

But if you completely let it go, it won't work, not to mention that these Han people who crossed the river into the mountains to collect ginseng and mountain goods took away what should have belonged to them, just talking about the Jurchens, and over time, Buyandai couldn't explain it.

Moreover, these Han Chinese teams who entered and exited the forests of Changbai Mountain were becoming more and more bold, not only stealing pine nuts, ginseng and other mountain goods in groups, but also often killing people and walking away in the areas that Buyan Dai was ordered to guard.

But all the Jurchens who were killed, or the Jurchen Mongols who shaved their hair and braided their hair, were stripped of the scalp with the tail of the money rat on the top of their heads by the armed Han people who crossed the border to dig mountain goods.

Something like this has happened repeatedly in the past six months since the appearance of the Tumen Town Guard.
