Chapter 123: Folding the Mansion Army
In order to integrate the tribal army, Burhan divided the warlike army of the entire tribe into two parts: the four major cavalry armies and the thousand household armies each. In order not to affect production www.biquge.info Burhan even stipulated that only the Chinas Guard, the Naurus Battalion, and one of the four major cavalry armies should be retained in the regular army, and that the productivity should be guaranteed as much as possible on the premise of ensuring the safety of the Hechiti Division. However, with the war to capture the set, and the unpredictable forces around it. The Hechiti Department now has only the situation of all three major cavalry armies, except for the Leopard Cavalry. Burhan had just sent the dissatisfied Panther cavalry to serve as horse thieves in the Tushetu Khan tribe, and although this strategy had been accepted by the nobles of the Hechiti tribe, the fact that the troops were insufficient had already been revealed.
As the boss of the army, it was necessary for the Kali to let the Great Khan know the threat that was implied.
"Great Khan! Although the method of Lord Aizen is not very bright, the minister is still happy to see it. As soon as Kali said this, many people secretly ridiculed him, and he was reckless. Anyone can see that the blue dye may be reused by the Great Khan after this, and it is really unwise to offend an upstart nakedly like this. And as the person concerned, Aizen did not show dissatisfaction, he knew that his foundation was still shallow, so naturally he could not be compared with an old nobleman like Kali, not to mention, his doctrine was indeed very despicable. And Kali didn't pay attention to other people's thoughts, he only cared about what he cared about.
"Great Khan! Although the Leopard Cavalry did not enter the army, there were more than 2,000 people, and they also had the important responsibility of guarding the Yinshan Pass, and if they attacked, they would inevitably expand the battle line to the depths of the Tushetu Khan Department, which was nothing. However, sending troops to harass the enemy was not the original invention of Lord Aizen, and my Mongols used it very early. Therefore, we can think, can't others think of it? ”
Liu Dingchen understood it at one point, stood up and said, "General Kali is worried that when the Great Khan goes north to fight the decisive battle with Khalkhani, someone may not be able to bear it? ”
"Not bad!" That's what Kali said, and he didn't shy away from saying, "I'm with the Chiti tribe, and I have my back to the Daming, Ordos, and Tumut tribes. Among them, the Ordos and Tumut Ministries, which have the strength to fight for me, are not in the scope of our consideration. Didn't I, Kali, underestimate the Ming people, the border pass of the Ming court has not been a big trouble for fifty years, and the border town is in ruin and can be worthy of a war? Even if they had the strength to fight, it would take at least half a year for the army to prepare for it. ”
There is no objection to this, whether it is the Tumut Department or the Ordos Department, they can become a threat to the Hechiti Department, and the Ming Court is indeed not very good.
Leaving everyone plenty of time to think, Kali continued, "No matter what happens to the war between Gunbu and Khalkhani? In order to seize the greatest benefits, the Great Khan will definitely send troops to the north. However, the Tushetu Khan Department is not a good match, even if all the strength is lost, those healthy women and cubs are not easy to capture. Besides, the Tushetu Khan Department is so large, after the Great Khan conquers, how can he send troops to garrison it, so how can the Great Khan also need to bring at least 60,000 troops this time to control a Tushetu Khan Department of more than 100,000 households. ”
Hiss! Burhan couldn't help but gasp, according to what Gali said, Burhan was indeed a little anxious for quick success. There is a saying that greed is too much to chew, but if you can't annex the Tushetu Khan Department in one fell swoop, then you don't know when you will have to wait until the Mongolian steppe will be unified in the future, and you must wait until the Hechiti Department is as strong as the Ming court? Burhan was not reconciled, bowed his head and thought a little. Suddenly, he looked up sharply and thought; No way! Be sure to find a compromise.
"Is there a way for General Kali to bring this up?"
Kari shook her head, although he brought up the matter, but he didn't know how to solve it, after all, he was not good at making suggestions. At this moment, a familiar voice sounded again.
"Great Khan! The minister has some ideas. ”
Oh? It's indigo dyeing again! Today he was in the limelight. Originally, I was going to listen to what the gods had to say, but I didn't expect this old guy to close his eyes and recuperate like an old monk, but fortunately, Aizen had already come out of the class, so it was better to listen to his views first. Burhan couldn't wait any longer.
"Come on!"
Lan Dye was overjoyed, today is very important to him, and whether he can be subjected to heavy sweating depends on today. He said with a straight face:
"Great Khan! There are more than 200,000 Han people in our Hechi Ti tribe, and more than 40,000 households, most of whom are strong. Why not form a Han army? First, to liberate the combat power of the four major cavalry armies, and second, to cooperate with various ministries and thousands of households to protect the peace of the Red Ti Division? ”
This is a good note, but will the conscription of the Han army affect the grain production of the Hechiti Division? Before Burkand could express his opinion, the court had become a debate forum for ministers, and the supporters and opponents had a fierce duel over whether or not to recruit the Han army and how to recruit it.
Today, the blue dye is too popular, which has attracted the dissatisfaction of Batu Bagan. If it's Zuo Xiang, there's nothing to say, years of working together have made him completely impressed by his wisdom. But this guy suddenly exploded, which is very unaccustomed.
"Dare to ask Lord Aizen! If the Han army is conscripted, will the grain production of our Hechiti Department be affected? You must know that the reason why our Hechiti tribe dares to do this is mostly dependent on the grain production of the Hetao, and if there is a shortage of food because of this, the annexation of the Tushetu Khan is just empty talk. ”
Aizen seemed to have been prepared, and he immediately proposed a solution, "Lord Batu Bagan, this impact is inevitable, but it can be guaranteed to be controlled within the minimum range. ”
"I want to hear about it!" Batu Bagen asked, and Burhan really didn't think why Batu Bagen would target the blue dye so much today, but the blue dye was really surprising.
Aizen looked at Burhan, it didn't seem that he was asking for help, and Burhan didn't interfere arbitrarily, so that the ministers would have the most suitable way to discuss it, and Burhan was happy to see it. I only heard Aizen say:
"This solution is very simple, that is, to restart the people. Last year, our Hechi Ti Department accepted more than 200,000 Han people from the Ming court, and this time, in order to make up for the losses caused by the conscription of the Han army, it can be more strict, only young men and women are needed, although it is not as exaggerated as 200,000, but it is also very considerable, which is enough to make up for the lack of labor caused by the Han army's enlistment. ”
Batu Bagen asked again: "How can the combat strength of the Han army be guaranteed?" ”
The weakness of the Han people was undoubted for the Mongols, how could they give their backs to the Han army to protect? Many people have doubts.
"This..."Just when Aizen was still organizing the language, Kali had already spoken, "This can be rest assured, hand over these Han troops to Guo Wei, and guarantee that it will be an iron army again in less than half a year." ”
Why do you need to use it? Because the ministers understood that Guo Wei's Han military camp was such an iron army, and its performance in previous wars was no worse than that of the Mongols, and its defensive ability was even more outstanding.
Kalidu said so, and it is true that Guo Wei's prestige of the Han army is no worse than that of the Mongols, otherwise he would not have been accepted by Burhan under the command of the China Guards.
"Alright! Even if the Han army can be able to fight under the training of General Guo Wei, then who of you can guarantee that these Han troops will also be as loyal to our Hechi Ti Department as General Guo Wei? Are you willing to throw your head and spill blood for me? ”
As soon as Batu Bagen said this, several angry lights immediately reflected on him. Burhan also frowned, this is a bit too much, and it is not conducive to tribal unity. What made Burhan even more angry was that Dugan's-stirring stick was not messy enough.
"Great Khan! Although General Batubagan's remarks are discriminatory, the problem is unavoidable. Last year's introduction of population was mixed, and it is inevitable that there will be ambitious people. If we are in a high position in the Han military camp, then how dare we entrust the affairs behind us to the Han army? ”
Batu Bagan listened to Dugan's words and looked at Burhan's face again, and lowered his head, he was now annoyed, why didn't he grasp it? said it casually, but I didn't expect to be caught by Dugan immediately. I also blamed myself for being too cautious, and seemed to feel that the Great Khan intended to reuse blue dyeing, so that the Hanchen of the Hechiti Department would be evenly matched with the Mongol nobles, so if the Great Khan counterattacked the Ming Dynasty in the future, wouldn't it be difficult, then this court is still the court of the Mongols? Is the Hechiti tribe still the Hechiti of the Mongols? This made him lose his mind, and now he regrets it when he thinks about it, he shouldn't have provoked this matter in front of him! Especially when the Hechiti Department annexes the Tushetu Khan Department, the internal friction will disrupt the deployment, why is he so confused?
At this moment, the two forces above the main hall are secretly fighting, and who is not willing to take the lead. Because they knew that whoever could finally calm down would have the support of the Great Khan, and both looked at Burhan in unison, whose inclinations determined the fate of each other.
Call! Burhan feels stressed! Before this happened, the battle between Han and Mongolia was already on the surface, how could he go north with peace of mind? This wind has to be killed.
"Haha!" Burhan grinned, hoping to lighten the mood, but no one responded? Then he could only keep his face tense again, but after a while, he decided to have something to say.
"O this man! Why did you come to Hechitibu? Isn't it a stabilisation? Whether it is a Mongolian or a Han Chinese, they all have the same mind. Today, we are afraid that the Han people will rebel and rebel, so aren't the Han people afraid that we Mongols will kill them all? This trick of you guarding against me and I guarding against you, in the end, the contradictions are getting deeper and deeper, and the hatred is piling up higher and higher. Relax your heart a little and take a step back to open the sky, all for survival! Think about it, isn't that reasonable? ”
Burhan's words made the ministers feel ashamed, especially Batu Bagan. He stood up and got down on one knee and said, "Great Khan! The minister knows that he is wrong! Please punish the Great Khan! This is just the beginning, and then Kali and Mangao knelt down, and the Mongolian nobles of the Hechi Ti tribe also knelt down to admit their mistakes when they saw the direction of the wind, and even Dugan couldn't avoid it.
Liu Dingchen looked at this situation, if their gang of Hanchen continued to stand up like this, they would have completely fallen behind, and they also knelt on the ground with General Guo Wei, and the other Hanchen dared to stand in a big way when they saw this?
Looking at the ministers who were kneeling on the ground, Burhan was very pleased, although it could not completely solve the struggle between Han and Mongolia, today's admonition also made them all restrain a little. The disadvantage of the Mongolian nobles is that they look down on the Han people, and the inferiority of the Han people is to get carried away. After everything was annexed to the Tushetu Khan Department, Burhan slowly ** them, and now the problem of recruiting the Han army is still to be solved.
Taking advantage of this momentum, Burhan issued an order:
"Ordered to recruit three battalions of the Han army into service, one battalion was incorporated into Guo Wei's wolf cavalry, and one battalion was incorporated into the China Nasi Guard, which was merged with the current Han military camp, and one battalion was used as a riverside garrison, um~..." After a while, it is better to let Aizen come, it is not wrong to have such a vision to command the army, on the other hand, it is also to appease Han Chen.
"As for the riverside garrison, the name of the Zhichong Mansion Army, led by the blue dye, and the blue dyeing solid ribbon Zhichong Zhonglang will be the fourth rank of official. Lan Aiqing! Can you be confident? ”
Lan Ran was really surprised, although he had expected that Burhan would reuse him, but he didn't expect it to be raised so high all of a sudden, and he would be the fourth grade, which meant that he had the absolute right to speak in the Hechi Ti Department, and his opinions had to be taken seriously from today onwards, how could he not repay such a kindness?
Aizen said at the moment: "Please rest assured! The minister will be the commander of the army to train an iron army under the command of the Great Khan of the minister, who can fight, and will win the battle. ”
Then he knocked down his head heavily.
The Burkands were dying so fast that the people had not yet fully reacted, and the clerk had already taken notes. If it is opposed at this moment, it will be a great provocation to the authority of Burhan, and there will be a danger of being cleaned up. For such a decision, the Mongolian nobles are strongly supportive, what can Aizen do if he is a Zhonglang general? The middle and lower-level generals still need the Mongols from the camp of China, and General Guo Wei is trustworthy, and the Great Khan has nothing to say, so it can be seen that although three battalions of the Han army were recruited this time, it was the Mongols who ultimately benefited, and it should be the Hechiti Department.
After retiring from the dynasty, Lan Ran couldn't wait to find Liu Dingchen to thank him.
"Thank God for your help, otherwise I'm afraid I'll be living in this life." And I thank you deeply.
Liu Dingchen just smiled and said, "Where! Everything you get today is your own hard work, I just mention one or two, how far you can go in the future, it depends on your own performance, don't be ashamed of the good intentions of the Great Khan. ”
If Burhan was here at this moment, he would know why Liu Dingchen was abnormal today.
