The leader of the Xibe tribe, Mo Si, sat in the tent, a little restless, with the strength of the tribe, Mo Si's thinking also changed a little, plus many tribal leaders who came to take refuge, often talked about the once powerful Mongolian steppe tribes, such as the Horqin tribe and the Chahar tribe, etc., and even some people said about the powerful Yuan Dynasty, which was a kingdom established by Mongolia.

These words kept hovering in Mo Si's mind, and after a long time, there were some subtle changes in his thoughts, of course, Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ning Camp were powerful, Mo Si was still clear, when Jiang Ning Camp was stationed in Anning Fort and Jingbian, Mo Si was very attentive, with the help of Jiang Ning Camp, through the mutual market, the Xibe tribe quickly began to grow, and the strength should not be underestimated, by the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, the Xibe tribe had 40,000 households and nearly 200,000 people, this is not an ordinary force, even if it is with the Horqin tribe, Compared with the Chahar tribe, it is not necessarily much worse.

With the evacuation of the Jiangning battalion from Anning Fort and Jingbian, leaving only 2,000 people, the Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe gradually became the barrier of the Ming border pass, guarding the safety of the Ming border pass, and it is precisely because of the obedience to the leadership of the Ming court that the Xibe tribe has obtained more benefits, artillery and flintlock guns, equipped with a lot, the power of these firearms, so that many tribes in the grassland change color, do not dare to be disobedient at all.

Mo Si has long been dissatisfied with guarding the Hetao area, with such a strong strength, it is completely possible to conquer the grassland, when the time comes, the Xibe tribe will lead the grassland, dominate the grassland, accept the division of the Ming court, and become the Great Khan of the grassland, which is not impossible.

However, to achieve this goal, there is one of the most practical problems, and that is the Daur tribe.

The Daur tribe is as strong as the Xibe tribe. The Daur tribe has gained too much from the mutual market, and has also obtained a lot of artillery and flintlock guns, and the strength is comparable to that of the Xibe, and when the time comes, even if they conquer the other tribes of the steppe, between the Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe. There was also a battle for supremacy.

This kind of thought hovered in Mo Si's mind, but at this time, some businessmen who often came to the tribe to do business thought of a lot of ways, approached Mo Si, and came up with some ideas, all of which weakened the strength of the Daur tribe.

Regarding the views of the Ming court, Mo Si's thoughts have also changed. In the past, he listened to his words, but now he listens selectively, and sometimes, the orders of the Ming court are not in line with his own interests, and Mo Si will find a way to delay, and it will only be implemented when it is impossible to drag it on.

The Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe. There have been some minor conflicts because of the horse farm problem. and the pastures for grazing, there were disputes, and the tribal herdsmen of the two hairs even took action, but such conflicts have not yet risen to the level of army conflicts, whenever such conflicts arise. Sun Yuankun, who was stationed in Anning Fort, would send people over to coordinate to effectively avoid greater conflicts, but coordination was not always a solution.

Mo Si's most trusted subordinates. is not a number of officers of the tribe, but a businessman, this businessman is full of wealth, and the truth he said made Mo Si admire, and it was precisely because of such a businessman's enlightenment that Mo Si had the idea of showing his ambition.

The Mongolian people are bold, and they are very admirable for those who have the ability, especially the readers, once upon a time, Mo Si wanted Su Tiancheng to send a Ming scholar to assist him, but such an idea was not put forward in the end. Mo Sizhi Dao, a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, sees problems very accurately and can make incisive analysis.

The merchant Jia that Mo Si met was from Liaodong and specialized in the jewelry business, and his name was Jia Jihan.

Because of Jia Jihan's incisive analysis, after a period of time, Mo Si simply left Jia Jihan by his side and specially helped him to give advice, Jia Jihan's idea was really good, for example, to treat the tribes that took refuge in the Xibe tribe, adopted a gentle policy, and asked these tribes to send their heirs to the tribe, as long as these tribes did things according to Mo Si's requirements, they could get a certain number of firearms, anyway, these firearms were also bought by the Xibe tribe from Song Sijun.

Because of this method, there was no plundering of the wealth of the tribe, after a period of time, the number of small grassland tribes that took refuge in the Xibe tribe gradually increased, and even some tribes directly integrated into the Xibe tribe.

With the increase in the population of the tribe and the strength of the military, Mo Si trusted Jia Jihan even more.

Just when Mo Si was still thinking about the past, Jia Jihan entered the tent.

Ordinary people can't casually enter Mo Si's tent, with the growth of the Xibe tribe, some rules have begun to increase, some rules, Jia Jihan directly helped to set, the following must be done in accordance with such requirements, for example, to see Mo Si, must be reported, can not be as casual as before, even more arrogant, attitude to be correct, when asking for instructions, attitude to be respectful, up and down the rules to strictly enforce, to be clear about their own status.

These rules made Mo Si feel satisfied, a kind of satisfaction in power.

And Jia Jihan took the lead in enforcing these rules, and when he saw Mo Si, he was respectful and respectful, and he would never show arrogance, which made Mo Si very happy.

Because of Jia Jihan's contributions, Mo Si specially asked for it, and when Jia Jihan entered the tent, he could not ask for instructions.

"Chief, what my subordinates said last time, I don't know if the leader of the Dao has thought about it."

"What Mr. Jia is talking about, I can't remember."

"The two things that the subordinates said, the first thing, the matter of conquering the grassland tribes, the Xibe tribe has more than 200,000 tribes, such a powerful force, it can completely dominate the grassland, even if it is the Horqin tribe, and the Chahar tribe, they are not opponents, the second thing is to deal with the Daur tribe, the subordinates can conclude that the leader of the other day will rule the grassland and become the great khan of the grassland, and the biggest trouble is the Daur tribe."

"Oh, you're talking about these two things, I've thought about it a long time ago, the matter of conquering the grassland must be approved by the Ming court, that is, the permission of Lord Su, otherwise you can't act casually, as for the matter of the Daur tribe, it's really hard to do it, and when the time comes, Lord Su will blame it, I can't say it."

A sneer appeared on Jia Jihan's face.

"The leader is too worried, Lord Su is now far away in Dengzhou, and the main energy is to deal with Houjin, besides, these years, the leader has been sticking to the border passes, saving the Ming court how much trouble ah, now unify the Hetao region, the Ming court will not have any opinions, the opinions of the subordinates, even if it is the conquest of the Mongolian steppe, the first thing is to exterminate the Daur tribe, the first strike is strong, as long as the leader moves, exterminate the Daur tribe, unify the Hetao area, the Ming court has nothing to say, After all, the Ming court still has to rely on the leader to stabilize the border passes. ”

Mo Si was still a little hesitant.

"What if Master Su is to blame."

"The subordinates feel that Lord Su must be to blame, but he will not be punished, the subordinates said it politely, Lord Su originally used the Xibe tribe and the Daur tribe to use the leader to stick to the border pass."

"Mr. Jia, don't say that, it's disrespectful."

Seeing that Mo Si's expression was a little wrong, Jia Jihan quickly changed the topic.

"The meaning of the subordinates is to suggest that the leader make a decision as soon as possible, before the conquest of the Mongolian steppe, the Daur tribe must be exterminated, once the population and strength of the Daur tribe are obtained, the leader can completely dominate the grassland, and at that time, whether it is the Horqin tribe or the Chahar tribe, they can only bow down to the vassals."

Mo Si is still a little hesitant, if the Ming court blames, the consequences are very serious, once the mutual market stops, the losses of the Xibe tribe are still a little heavy, those small tribes that are attached to it, what kind of thoughts will they have when the time comes, this is also an uncertain thing, his son is still in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, will he encounter accidents.

Jia Jihan saw Mo Si's hesitant expression, and a trace of vicious eyes flashed in his eyes, but it was impossible for Mo Si to find this trace of eyes.

"Chief, it's winter now, it's not good for the time being, after the beginning of spring, it's the time when the grassland tribes are not green, the leader can rely on the strong strength, sufficient grain and grass, to carry out the expedition to the grassland tribes, before that, the subordinates think that they must deal with the Daur tribe and unify the Hetao area, so that the grassland will become logical."

"What Mr. Jia said makes sense, let me think about it, during this time, a large amount of grain needs to be purchased, and this matter still has to work hard for Mr. Jia."

"Don't say that, the chief, this is what his subordinates should do."

Jia Jihan left the tent, Mo Si fell into deep thought, to make such a decision, it is not a casual thing, the strength of the Daur tribe is no worse than the Xibe tribe, if you do it, the best way is to eliminate the leaders and important officers of the Daur tribe in one game, so that you can avoid losses to the greatest extent, but where is this something that can be done casually, if the armies of the two tribes fight, what is the outcome, it is not clear, it may be a lose-lose thing, It is precisely because of this that Mo Si is very hesitant.

As for the matter of exterminating the Daur tribe, in Mo Si's heart, he approved such a method, if he could not exterminate the Daur tribe and the Xibe tribe dominate the grassland, there would not be any hope, and in the face of such a big event, Mo Si would not be polite.
