Chapter 817: The Poor Dagger

Outside the city of Datong, the Tumut camp.

Unlike a few days ago, the scale of the Tumut camp at this moment is not what it used to be, and it is more than double that when it retreated in a hurry.

However, what is strange is that just looking at the way these large camps are stationed, it can be seen that the Tumut army has clearly become three large blocks, and between each large block, there is a vague defense of the other party.

"Great Khan, what's going on?"

In the king's tent, the atmosphere was full of gunpowder, the young Tumut Khan sat at the top, and below him were two teams of men on the left and right, of which the person on the left was Tumut's Taishi Kabi Yatu, and behind him were Tumut's generals.

On the right side of the other side, there is a childish young man Lin Dan, who is dressed in a luxurious Mongolian aristocratic costume, and behind him, there is also a group of fierce men, who are not showing weakness and confronting Kabiyatu, and the momentum is not at all.

Kabi Yatu's tone was very bad, his brows were furrowed tightly, and he spoke directly towards Pullik in the middle seat, and between speaking, his eyes were always staring at the arrogant Lin Dan on the side, with undisguised hostility.

"This ...... Kabiyatu, don't be angry just yet, listen to Ben Khan'......"

Kabiyatu was an old courtier of Tumut, who had been there since the time of Altan Khan, but he had always been gentle and gentle, and it was the first time he had seen such an angry look.

This body can almost freeze people's momentum, and suddenly Rick is a little unbearable, and he stammers a little when he speaks, but his eyes swept to the Tumut generals behind him, and Rick's fists were clenched tightly.

He is the Great Khan of Tumut!

"Kabi Yatu, the army of the Chahar tribe, this time is here to help us attack Datong, this is a testimony to the friendship between Ben Khan and Lin Dan!"

Summoning up the courage, Tarik tried to assume the momentum of the Lord of Tumert, trying to undo the influence of Kabiyatu.

However, as soon as he raised his head and met the cold gaze of the other party that had just turned around, he couldn't help but tremble and added.

"Such as ...... Now that the Ming army has artillery to defend the city, it needs more troops, and you didn't object to the original order to attack Datong......"

"I'm not against it!"

Kabi Yatu's face became more and more ugly, and he said coldly.

"The third lady must be found, so I will agree to continue to attack the city, and I will agree to continue to transfer troops from the royal city, but the Great Khan has never said that he will join forces with the army of the Chahar Department!"

To be honest, Kabiyatu was in a bad mood.

From the very beginning of this war, he didn't want to fight, and after the inexplicable disappearance of the third lady, he decided that the third lady was taken away by the Ming army by virtue of a Lin Dan's words, and then sent the army to Datong.

At that time, Kabi Yatu felt that something was wrong, but helplessly, although he was the Taishi of Tumut, for so many years, the power of Tumut has always been in the hands of the third lady.

In the case of the sudden disappearance of the third lady, the power of commanding Tumut naturally fell into the hands of the new Great Khan Pullik.

All he could do was to keep the forces he could control in the royal city as much as possible, and not follow Pullik out and toss around.

But war is no longer something that can be controlled by manpower.

A few days ago, under the instigation of Lin Dan, Pullik brought all the siege equipment of Tumut, intending to launch a general attack on Datong, but who would have thought that at this moment, the reinforcements of the Ming army arrived.

Even Kabi Yatu did not expect that this time the reinforcements of the Ming army would be so strong, you know, even the most powerful bow and crossbow, separated by several miles, could not be lethal.

But those iron bumps can!

Kabiyatu didn't know what those iron bumps were, but they were shot from the walls of the city miles away and fell into the midst of Tumut's army, causing unimaginable casualties.

In this battle alone, they had not even come close to the city walls, and the number of people who had lost more than they had lost in the past half a month or so had exceeded them......

But it also gives Kabi Yatu a chance!

After returning to the camp, he immediately said to Pullik that the troops must be withdrawn, and that Da Ming has such a divine weapon, which is absolutely invincible.

This time he succeeded in convincing Pullik.

In other words, it was those strange cannons of the Ming Dynasty that really scared Pullik, you know, Pullrick was in front of the army at that time, and an iron lump fell a few feet away from him, and the fire of the explosion could even make people feel the burning sensation......

Originally, everything was going well, and Kabi Yatu believed that the Ming did not want to fight, and he believed that as long as Tumut showed enough sincerity, he could still return to the original state of peace.

But what he didn't expect was that things had changed.

This change happened to Lin Dan.

The day after he sent an envoy to Datong City to express his sincerity in negotiating peace, Lin Dan came to the king's tent with a man, and then he took out something, something that could persuade everyone to continue the war......

The seal of Tumut and Daming mutual market!

This seal was very familiar to Kabi Yatu, he had seen it countless times in the royal court, so he would never admit that what was in front of him was the real seal.

But...... Why?

You must know that this seal is the seal letter received from Daming when Altan Khan was still there, and only those who hold the seal are allowed to trade with Daming.

And this seal has been kept by the three ladies since the death of Altan Khan!

In other words, this seal letter represents the three ladies, and the person Lin Dan brought was the meticulous work he sent in Datong City, according to that person, he bought off the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and then got this thing in the prison cell.

In layman's terms, this seal proves that Pullic and Lin Dan have always said that the three ladies are in Datong City!

War is inevitable......

This was the only thought in Kabi Yatu's mind at that time, although he didn't understand why the third lady was in Datong City, and he didn't understand how Lin Dan got this seal letter, but it didn't matter.

The important thing is that the Ming army really kidnapped the three ladies.

With this alone, war cannot be avoided!

The third lady is the object of admiration of every Tumut, so it is impossible for every Tumut to bear her being taken away by others, and it was at that time that the voice of peace talks disappeared without a trace.

All the Tumut generals have the same mind, break through Datong City, and rescue the three ladies!

The same goes for Kabi Yatu!

So he gave up all his doubts and urgently mobilized the remaining troops from the royal city to come to reinforcements, but what he didn't expect was that at the same time, there was also a large army of the Chahar department......

"Why are you angry, Kabiyatu?"

Lin Dan still looked smiling, at a young age, but his eyes were so deep that he couldn't see anything at all.

He pointed behind him and said.

"You see, this is the most courageous general of our Chahar department, Bahar, the great Tatar Khan king heard that the three ladies of Tumut were taken captive, and specially sent the general Bahar with 10,000 troops to help, which is a testimony to the friendship between Chahar and Tumut! Why should you be angry instead? Don't you want to rescue the three ladies? Or would you rather sacrifice the lives of the Tumut warriors than accept the help of the Chahars? ”

Lin Dan said very seriously, as if a junior asked an elder a difficult question.

But it made Kabi Yatu's face look ugly for a while......

That's what you ask!

He naturally has his reasons, the third lady does want to be saved, but as the master of Tumut, he has more things to consider, not only to rescue the third lady, but also more important things, what to do after rescuing the third lady.

Daming and Tumut maintained peace for decades, which was the result of the concerted efforts of the Three Ladies and Altan Khan, so Kabi Yatu believed that the Three Ladies would not want Tumut and Daming to fall out of control.

There is no doubt that this time the reversal will definitely cause the anger of the Ming Dynasty, Kabi Yatu originally planned to wait until the breakthrough of Datong and the rescue of the three ladies, he would withdraw from Datong to show his sincerity, when the time comes, there will be casualties on both sides, and the Ming Dynasty is not reasonable, and it is not difficult to restore the previous peace.

But what I didn't expect was that the Chahar Ministry actually intervened......

All of a sudden, it completely disrupted all of Kabiyatu's plans.

For no other reason, it's because the Chahar Department is the co-owner of the Tatars!

Although it was only a nominal co-master, once this matter involved the Chahar Ministry, the nature changed, at least in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, this was no longer a war between Tumut and the Ming Dynasty, but a war between the Tatars and the Ming Dynasty.

Once this nature changes, let alone Kabi Yatu, even if the three ladies come forward in person, they may not be able to save the situation.

This is the reason why Kabi Yatu is angry, this stupid guy has clearly agreed to transfer troops from Wangcheng, why should he accept Lin Dan's "kindness"!

Didn't he know that this would completely push him to the opposite side of Da Ming?

"The warriors of Tumut are all good men who stand up to the sky, they will earn what they want, and they will get back what they have lost, so they don't need others to worry about it!"

After a pause, Kabi Yatu narrowed his eyes and said.

Looking at the group of fierce men behind Lin Dan, Kabi Yatu's heart was even more worried, he didn't believe that Lin Dan would have such a good heart.

"Oh? Is that what the Taishi thinks? ”

However, at this moment, Lin Dan sneered and said.

"But what I have heard from you Great Khan is not so! It's Talik, my friend, who made a request to me, hoping that the great King of the Tatar Khan would help him find the Three Ladies and Sons, and we Chahar just sent the most heroic generals. ”

"Kabi Yatu, don't mess around! Tumut is a Tatar tribe, and we have a war with the Ming Kingdom, so naturally we should ask Chechen Khan for help, after all, he is the Khan of my Tatars! ”

With Lin Dan's successive fights, Pullik also returned to normalcy and said to Kabi Yatu.

However, his words instantly made Kabi Yatu's face change abruptly, and he looked at the sweat in the middle incredibly, and then looked at Lin Dan who was sneering on the side, and finally understood something......

It turned out that he had always underestimated Pullik, underestimated this, the young man who was able to snatch the position of the Great Khan in the hands of the third lady, what he had been worrying about was actually something that Pullic and Lin Dan had planned for a long time.

In fact, he has been thinking about a question all along, what is the purpose of Lin Dan's visit to Tumut?

Nominally, Lin Dan came to Tumut with the order of Chechen Khan to discuss affairs with the third lady, but two days after he came, the third lady inexplicably announced that he was going to Mingguo, and then disappeared even more inexplicably......

This is not counted, and then Lin Dan swore that the third lady was taken away by the Ming army, and instigated Tuo Lik to start a war with the Ming Kingdom to find the third lady.

After the war, he finally persuaded Pullik to plan to negotiate peace, and it was Lin Dan who not only brought Chahar's reinforcements, but also took out the seal letter of the third lady, proving that she was taken away by the Ming army......

This one by one is inseparable from Lin Dan's relationship, and Kabi Yatu knows that Lin Dan must have something to do with the disappearance of the third lady.

But why does he do so much?

At first, Kabi Yatu thought that he was going to provoke a war between Tumut and Ming, but before today, this judgment should have been right.

But at the same time, new questions arise, why did he provoke a war?

Even if Tumut and Ming Guo fought, what good would it do to Lin Dan? Now Kabiyatu finally knows that there are benefits! And there are great benefits!

Because he found that, before he knew it, the Great Khan of Tumut had changed his position.

According to Lin Dan, this reinforcement was requested by Talik and then ordered by Chechen Khan, what does this mean?

This means that Tumut is a vassal tribe of the Chahar Ministry, which means that Tumut will not be able to refuse orders from the Chahar Ministries in the future.

You must know that before this, although Chahar was nominally the co-lord of Tatar, but in fact there were few tribes that could be controlled, but after this battle, Tumut accepted Chahar's reinforcements, and it was free reinforcements, which means that he recognized the ruling identity of the Chahar Ministry.

In the steppe, only their own masters will unconditionally maintain their property.

Chahar sent troops because Tumut recognized that it was a vassal of Chahar, so the disappearance of the third lady meant that Chahar's dignity was challenged, so he sent troops......

Pull Rick, this bastard!

In order to secure his position, he did not hesitate to sell the entire Tumut to Chahar!

In just a moment, Kabi Yatu figured out the ins and outs of the whole thing, but at the same time he also calmed down, the situation has become like this, it is useless to be angry and angry, Lin Dan revealed his true intentions at the same time, but also made Kabi Yatu determined one thing.

That is the disappearance of the third lady, it is indeed related to him, and it is even possible that he instructed it!

Because only by getting rid of the condition of the three ladies is it worth paying such a big price......
