Chapter 162: Inner Mongolia Returns to Shun

After a conversation between Li Zhi and Hu Qitu, Hu Qitu was shocked at first, and finally completely relaxed, knowing that he would not die, Hu Qitu was bold, but this does not mean that Hu Qitu is not afraid of death. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Through the dialogue, Hu Qitu learned that these Han cavalry were only the vanguard of the Han army, and the Han army was still behind, but the Han army had no malicious intentions, they just wanted to make a deal with their tribe, and the Han army already knew where their tribe was now, which was the reason why Hu Qitu was surprised.

The strength of the Han army is not that the tribe where Huqitu is located can resist, the tribesmen of the tribe can escape on horseback, after all, the Han army lacks cavalry, but there are still a large number of cattle and sheep in the tribe, these things can not be taken away, if the Han army gets it, then the Batu Buhe tribe will be dangerous.

Nomads live by grazing, how can they graze without cattle and sheep? How do I get food?

After that, the cavalry platoon commander told Huqitu through Li Zhi that he hoped that Huqitu could lead them to his tribe and make some contact first, so as not to wait for the arrival of the Han army and cause unnecessary misunderstandings.

Huqitu thought for a while, and then agreed, but he could only take three people to the tribe.

I can only bring three people over, the cavalry platoon commander has no opinion, anyway, he just contacted it first, I believe that in the previous battle, the Fifth Division scared the Batubuh tribe, even if the two sides can't talk about it when they reach the Batubuh tribe, I believe that the Batubuh tribe will not dare to do anything to him, unless the Batubuh tribe wants to find death.

Then Hu Qitu took Li Zhi, the cavalry platoon commander and other three people to ride their horses to the tribal station, and before leaving, he also asked the Han cavalry to help take care of the cattle and sheep nearby.

Halfway through the journey, the four of them met more than 200 people from the Batubuh tribe, who came to check the position of the Han army, and if necessary, delay the Han army's march as much as possible, so as to buy time for the withdrawal of the Batubuh tribe.

When the two groups met, more than 200 people from the Batubuh tribe pointed their bows and arrows at four of them, and several of the 200 were survivors of the previous battle, and they wanted to kill the three Han soldiers.

However, under Huqitu's explanation, the leader of the team believed Huqitu's words and prepared to return to the tribe with the four of them.

Soon, everyone came to the Batubuh tribe, the Batubuh tribe is really preparing to evacuate here, of course, this is also because the patriarch of the Batubuh tribe did not return, the patriarch of the Batubuh tribe did not follow to the temple where Zhangjia IV is located, and is still on the way back to the Batubuh tribe at the moment, and the current affairs of the Batubuh tribe are decided by the patriarch's eldest son, Erri and Mu.

In the largest camp of the Batubuh tribe, three people, including Eri and Muhe, the cavalry platoon commander, stood opposite each other.

Erri and Mu: "You said that your Han army is here to trade with our tribe instead of going to war, what do you all want to trade?" ”

Li Zhi: "It's mainly salt, sugar and tea, and everything else is gadgets. ”

Salt, sugar, and tea, all of which were scarce for the Mongols, were part of the Fifth Division that it carried with it when it entered Inner Mongolia, which could be given to the Mongols as gifts or traded with the Mongols.

Erri and Mu didn't know whether the Han army really came to make a deal, or to test the Batubuh tribe in the name of making a deal, thinking that these questions were really a headache, Erri and Mu changed the topic and asked: "Your Han army defeated our 30,000 Mongolian warriors with these firearms?" ”

Saying that, Eri and Mu were still playing with a revolver that was confiscated from the Han army platoon commander, and Eri and Mu didn't see where this thing was powerful.

The Batubuh tribe also had firearms, but they were all old-fashioned powder guns, which were not enough for the Mongols to keep up with bows and arrows, and Erri and Mu did not think that the Han army could defeat 30,000 Mongol cavalry with firearms.

Just when Li Zhi wanted to speak, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded outside, the scene was a little chaotic, I don't know what was going on, I listened carefully, it turned out that it was Bayan, the patriarch of the Batubuh tribe, who came back, Erri and Mu put down the pistol at will, and hurried out to meet his father.

When Bayan learned from his son that there were three Han soldiers in the tribe, he immediately walked towards the big tent......

The next day, under the leadership of the patriarch Bayan, the Batubuh tribe drove nearly 1,000 cattle and sheep to trade with the Fifth Division, in exchange for salt, sugar, and tea urgently needed by the Batubuh tribe, and the Han army was also replenished by a large number of mistakes.

Although the Fifth Division defeated 30,000 Mongolian cavalry and got a lot of horse meat, the horse meat was not delicious, so the Fifth Division would make such a transaction, which was also the first transaction between the Han army and the Mongols, but it was certainly not the last transaction.

Six days later, Xiao Jianxiu returned safely with good news: Zhang Jia IV agreed to submit the Mongols living in the Inner Mongolia region to the Han Kingdom.

However, the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region surrendered to the Han Kingdom not because of the Fifth Division, but also by the Seventh Division, which also killed tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry on the other road, and finally made Zhang Jia IV bow his head.

Zhangjia IV was only the religious leader of the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region, and he could only let the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region submit to the Han Kingdom, as for the Mongols in the Outer Mongolia region, Zhangjia IV could not do anything, and Outer Mongolia was the sphere of influence of Jebtsundamba VIII.

In the face of the fifth division and the seventh division of the Han army, Zhang Jia IV had to bow his head, if he did not bow his head, the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region would be killed by the powerful Han army, even if the tribes migrated to avoid the Han army, in the end the tribes would be greatly injured, it was better to return to the Han Kingdom, the Han Kingdom's requirements for the Mongols were not too much, and the Mongols could still survive.

Of course, the fall of the Manchus was also a reason for Zhang Jia IV to bow his head, and without the help of the Manchus, only the Mongols with a population of less than one million could not resist the Han army.

The commander of the Fifth Division quickly transmitted the good news back to Yuanhe City, the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region were subordinated to the Han Kingdom, and most of the tasks of the Fifth Division had been completed, and the remaining task was to recruit the Mongols and form a cavalry unit of the Han army.

As for the submission of the Mongols in the Outer Mongolia region, this task could not be completed by the 5th and 7th Divisions in a short period of time.

The fifth and seventh divisions of the infantry-based division were able to conquer Inner Mongolia, making it very difficult for the Mongols in the Inner Mongolia region to return to the Han Kingdom.

It is better to rest in Inner Mongolia, recruit the Mongols to form a cavalry unit, and then take Outer Mongolia in one fell swoop, you must know that Outer Mongolia is not as helpless as Inner Mongolia, but Outer Mongolia borders on Tsarist Russia. (To be continued.) )
