Chapter 177: Temptation
Today, as soon as Burhan left the court, he was called to Cining Palace by his mother. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Son to the queen mother, please be safe!" Although there is nothing good to see between the mother and son of Burhan, since this etiquette has been set, it must be observed.
Seeing the arrival of her most proud son, the Queen Mother Yang Caini was also very happy, and there are really many happy things today!
"Coming? Sit, grandma has something to tell you! ā
Grandma doesn't often do this, unless there is something happy in the harem that she will call herself over to ask, is it ......? This made him feel a little gratified, and at the same time a sense of incompetence spontaneously appeared. It's been two months since I've been back, but the days when I get to the harem are numbered, so I should care about a few people.
Although Burhan guessed this time, the direction was wrong.
"O Burhan! Monlik wrote yesterday that he wanted Tuya, the daughter of Natu Shetu's left-wing Wanhu Daru Huachi Arugao, as his wife, and the mourning family wanted to ask what you meant, after all, you are the eldest brother, not to mention that Monlik's identity is there. ā
As soon as Burhan heard it, he knew that this was Monlik testing himself, and if not, then why didn't he write a letter himself? Instead, you want to use your mother to pass the word on your behalf?
Yang Caini always paid attention to the changes in Bourhan's expression, and had complained about Monlik in her heart for a long time. Seeing that Bourhan's expression had not changed, he was a lot more relieved.
Burhan replied: "Mother! The son thought the marriage was excellent! The Naaru Plateau is a Turkut nobleman, and it is now a Tushetu left wing Wanhu Daru Huachi. is loyal and honest, and he is also very accomplished, so his daughter must be not bad. Burhan did not blush at all when he said these undesirable words.
Since Burhan said yes and agreed, then she, a mother, would not have any more extraneous branches.
Soon, the messenger carrying the marriage edict of Burhan arrived in Orkhon City, looking at the dazzling gifts, including the brocade of Bashu; Gold and silver jewelry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Tuya was so happy that she almost fainted, thinking that there were so many sisters at the beginning, and none of them were willing to take on this errand, and finally joined forces to launch themselves. They never thought that there was not a fire pit ahead, but well-being, right? You must have regretted it, right?
Monlik used marriage to test Burhan's intentions, and the decree was issued, which gave him peace of mind. In that case, the next action can be slightly larger. Speaking of his father-in-law, Arugao, now he just wants to regret it, I'm afraid Burhan is not willing either. Today's two are both one and the other!
Lake Khuvsgul in the middle of summer is even more beautiful than when Monlik came. Ever since he received the clairvoyance given by Monrik, Arugao has loved using it to look far away, and he likes it. A feeling that I can see you, but you can't see me, taking advantage.
Suddenly, he put away the mirror, and saw his subordinate clerk coming from afar, and it seemed that something important was about to happen to him.
"Oh no! Oh no! "From a long distance, the clerk couldn't bear it, and he wanted to inform his superiors of the news as soon as possible." Oh no! My lord! One of our camps was sacked by horse thieves, more than 300 men, women, and children died, and the cattle, sheep, and horses were swept away! ā
"What?" If it was someone else's camp, Arugao would never have reacted like this, it was his, his own camp, and the cattle, sheep and horses in it were his property! How could he not be in a hurry?
Arugao angrily entered the house of General Da Zhao Zhige, and the two did not have good words when they met.
"Da Stunned Zhaozhige! What do you eat? As a town guard, there are horse thieves in your jurisdiction, and you didn't even notice it? I ask you, where are the more than 300 tribesmen who have robbed and killed you? When you were robbed of your belongings and then swaggered away, where were your people? The dignified town guards thousands of households, is it a decoration? ā
Alugao scolded him with his head and face, and he was in a bad mood when he was stunned, but when he scolded him, the bull's temper also came up, how could he have good words?
"Arugao! Of course, this matter is the responsibility of my Wanhu Department, and I will ask Lord Zaduluo, the commander of the Northern Army, to ask for the guilt. And what right do you have to question General Ben? Previously, the general asked for the conscription of 3,000 soldiers to fill the border defense, but you took production as a prevarication, and then used the supply of materials as a threat, so that my 10,000 households could not even carry out daily inspections. ā
Aru was so angry that he said viciously, "Good! Very good! Da Zhaozhaozhige, what you said today, I will convey it word for word to Lord Dadu, and he will have a fair ruling. Hum! ā
After saying that, Arugao slammed the door and left, but was stopped by Da Zhaozhige. "Stop! ā¦ā¦ Arugao! I'm telling you, if you want to sue me, you'd better give the ruler a name, although the Metropolitan Protector is in a high position, he can't control me! ā
When Arugao heard this, he was even more angry, and he was not angry in his heart, "Hmph! You wait, Da Zhao Rige! You will pay for what you say today. ā
Arugao snatched the door out, Da Zhaozhige slowly calmed down, he felt that this matter was a little strange, patrolling the border they didn't fall for a day, how could there be a team of horse thieves who could destroy three hundred people in their own jurisdiction? Isn't it Saiyin Nuoyan's secret ghost?
Two days later, an edict from the town guard government was issued, with strict wording, ordering Da Zhao Zhaori to quickly lead his troops to suppress the bandits. And Arugao also received an order from the Metropolitan Protectorate, instructing him to provide convenience to the Da Zhao Rige Wanhu Department at all costs. This is considered a major fifty board, but for Arugao, he has a lot of complaints in his heart, thinking that he can receive some care by relying on the last "prince", but he didn't expect it to be like this. But when he read Monlik's secret letter, the whole person's attitude towards Da Zhaozhige changed radically.
The town guard ordered him to quickly send troops to suppress the bandits, and Da Zhaozhige did not dare to disobey. As for the troops, he is not embarrassed to ask the commander for help from the regular army, if the regular army needs to be dispatched to deal with a few horse thieves, then his Wanhu Department is really as Arugao said, will he still have face in front of his colleagues in the future? Fortunately, Arugao is on the road, everything needed is not allowed, and Da Zhao Rige is about to send troops.
For several days, Da Zhao Zhige led an army of 3,000 people throughout the Kusugul Lake area to search for tooth-gnashing horse thieves. He vowed to crush the bones of these people. Just as the army was leaving, the rampant horse thieves slaughtered the camp again, killing more than a hundred of their people, and Da Zhaozhige could predict the wrath of the ruler.
"There's a discovery here!" "There's someone over there, too!" "Me too!" There was no trace for several days, and suddenly it seemed to be filled with water rats in all directions. Da Zhaozhao's army of 3,000 was scattered little by little, and when he finally found the brigade of horse thieves, there were less than 500 people with him. Although there were only five hundred, it was indeed several times more than the horse thief, probably because he was in a hurry to make meritorious service and rushed to kill him first.
To tell the truth, Da Shou Zhaozhige doesn't have much ability, he is an old man in the period of the first Khan Alet, because he was injured on the battlefield and was sent to the "reserve", his person does not have much to show off, if there is his absolute loyalty to the Hechi Ti Department and Burhan, to put it bluntly, he is a full person.
Sure enough, recklessness comes at a price. As he rushed into the birch forest, an arrow struck him in the neck, killing him instantly. Even if all the horse thieves were killed later, it would not be able to hide the death of one Wanhu.
"What's going on?" Great Khan Burhan hurried to the Military Aircraft Department, and Liu Dingchen, who was the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, reported.
"Great Khan! Horse thieves were found in the Khuvsgul area, and many of their people were killed and their belongings looted. The commander of the Wanhu Army on the left wing of Tushetu, General Da Zhaozhige, led the army to encircle and suppress, but unfortunately he was killed in the middle of the attack, and the purge is still continuing. ā
After hearing this, Burhan frowned, he didn't expect that he had only been away for a few months, and someone would dare to brush the tiger's beard? One Wanhu was also killed in battle!
"Does the Interior Guard have any information?" For a long time, the Interior Guard Office of the Hechi Ti Department was responsible for the collection of intelligence in the army, and was known for its efficiency, but today it was about to disappoint Burhan.
"Great Khan! The intelligence network of the Inner Guard Government in the Khuvsgul region has not yet been completed, and no relevant information has been collected before! Amo, the leader of the Great Pavilion of the Internal Guard Mansion, said stubbornly. Amor has been in charge of the Internal Guard Mansion for almost a year, and he is very admired by Burhan in the intelligence collection and disposal of the four Caolemeng, but today it makes Burhan furious.
"Not sound yet? Why don't you hurry up and get it? Does Ben Khan have to teach you this? ā
After the outbreak of thunderous fury in Burhan, Burhan asked, "Can any of you tell Ben Khan where these horse thieves came from?" ā
Kali and Batu Bagen guessed that the horse thief was disguised by the Saiyin Noyan Division. After all, the Khuvsgul region was their nomadic place before, and they were forced to give it up under pressure from the Hechiti tribe, and they had the motive and conditions to commit the crime.
But it was soon vetoed by Liu Dingchen, the left minister. "Great Khan! If it is the Saiyin Noyan Division, it would be better to invade the Kusugul region with all its resources, and the result will be the same anyway, that is, it will be destroyed by the Ihechiti Division. The Sayin Noyan Department is not so stupid. Although they have broken away from the control of Tushetu Khan Gunbu, they are still dependent on Gunbu. Because Gonbu can get the aid of my Hechiti tribe, if they did this, he is not afraid that Gunbu and the Great Khan will join forces to divide him? I thought it should be the remnants of Haslon, or maybe it was a loose horse thief! ā
Guo Wei stood up and said, "The minister agrees with Lord Zuo, it can't be the Saiyin Nuoyan Department, but the minister is more inclined to the barbarians in the north. (Barbarians, nomads who speak Turkic languages, are similar to the Dingling.) ļ¼ā
Just when many ministers of the Military Aircraft Department were speculating about the identity of the horse thief, the chapters of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate and the Northern Army Town Guard Mansion arrived one after another. When I opened it, I asked Burhan to quickly appoint a capable general as the left wing of Tushetu Wanhu to preside over the task of suppressing bandits.
Burhan took the piece and said, "It seems that the left wing of Tushetu really needs someone who can handle it to defend the town." "When the situation is unknown, Burhan does not want to provoke a war.
"Do you have a candidate for the Military Aircraft Division?"
This can be regarded as a test of the organizational ability of the Military Aircraft Department. Everyone looked at Liu Dingchen, and he said, "Great Khan! The senior generals of our Hechiti Department were not enough, and the four major cavalry armies were also expanded for the war of the Tushetu Khan Division, and the captain of the main battalion of the Longqi Army was still vacant, and General Kali took over the position.
Although the Wolf Cavalry and the Tiger Cavalry have cut two battalions, the establishment is still there, just in case, let Zaduro recommend it himself! ā
Speaking of which, there is no one to send to the military aircraft department, but there are a lot of good seedlings there in Zaduro!
"Ahh Burhan stuffed Zaduro's recital to Liu Dingchen, and said helplessly: "If Zaduro can draw someone from there, he won't be able to go to the book." One of the two battalions of the Han army just passed was still short of people, and he didn't ask Ben Khan to shout that the person was already Amitabha, what else could you expect him to release? ā
Liu Dingchen thought about it, the current talents of the Hechi Ti tribe are far from keeping up with the development of the tribe, although the Great Khan Burhan has made up for it, and the Chinasi camp has long been involved in the cultivation of talents, but these "children" who have just graduated still need to be trained at the grassroots level before they can be of great use. There are many generals and lieutenants in the regular army, but they have no prestige, and the captains are decentralized? Even if people were willing, the Great Khan would not be willing. Suddenly, Liu Dingchen thought of someone.
"Great Khan! When the minister thinks of a person, he can be a heavy responsibility. ā
"Oh? Who is it? ā
"Arugao!" When Liu Dingchen said the name of that person, the other ministers of military aircraft were all disgusted, Arugao They all knew that he was a capricious villain, how could Zuo Xiang propose him?
Burhan was also sitting and weighing in his heart, although he was a little unhappy, but for now it could only be so. "Arugao? is indeed a good candidate, but he is now in Daru Huachi, if he takes over Wanhu, won't Daru Huachi be vacant? Military generals are scarce, and Wenchen Ben Khan has no surplus food. ā
"Then let him do it first!" It's really amazing! Even Liu Dingchen dared to come up with such an idea?
