Tumen panicked, this was the first time since he called Khan that he felt so weak and helpless!

It is already obvious that the so-called "Xibei tribe" is a fake Mongol tribe supported by the Jurchen lowly race in the back. Fan Ming Fan Qiongbiao, a businessman from Jiexiu in Shanxi Province who came to do business with the Mongols, once reminded the Tumen with a smile: This "Xibei" means a fake in the Han language, so this "Xibei Department" should also be a fake, right? But the people in Xibei were indeed Mongols, and when Tumen heard this, they were very angry and felt that Fan Minh was sowing discord. However, because Fan Ming got himself a lot of grain, grass and iron tools, and also sold the goods looted from the Han land on his behalf, so that the blockade policy of the Ming court failed, Tumen did not attack and laughed it off. Now it seems that there is no doubt about it. And judging from the meaning of the Chinese character of the name "Xibei", coupled with the cooperation of Jizhen of the Ming Kingdom (in fact, it is the Liaoning Army pretending to be the Ming Army), the Ming Kingdom is also the black hand behind the scenes.

But now I realize that it is useless. The great vassal tribes of Chahar rebelled, and everyone was defeated. The small tribe has either surrendered to Xibeibu or is finished. The medium tribes were not much better, and those who were still alive were dying around the royal court.

The tribes that fled to the royal court all left behind their supplies and fled on horseback. Since he did not go to Han last year to "do business", the materials stored by the royal court were not very many, and most of them were consumed by the war for several months, which was no longer enough, and now so many people are pouring in, which is even worse. Wang Ting hardened his heart and ordered the old man over fifty years old and the woman over forty years old to be stripped naked and driven out, so that he could be supported. Of course, the aristocracy is not among them. Even if this is the case, it is only that the nobles and the soldiers who are going to fight can eat more and wear thicker, and the others will not die of hunger and cold.

The Xibei Department, the shameless Chagan, took refuge in the Jurchen and the cowardly Ming dog, raised the butcher's knife towards his Mongols, and used such a despicable way, really tarnished the nobility of the Golden Family! Tumen was able to lead the Chahar to expand and become stronger, but it was not by curses and prayers. I really can't fight anymore, and after scolding Chagan and Xibeibu, I have to think of some useful ways.

Do you want to surrender to the Tumut tribe? Everyone knows that the ruler of Naturalization City is not the son of Tuo Lik, but a woman who has married three generations of grandparents - Zhong Jin Hatun. Zhong Jin Hatun, a bastard woman, was also a lackey of the Ming Kingdom, not only made the Tumut Department give up the immortal heaven and convert to Lamaism, but also paid tribute to the Ming State and accepted the Ming State's edict, called "Lady Zhongshun", which disgraced the face of the Mongols.

(Zhongjin Hatun, is the legendary three ladies, 1550 ~ 1612, the Ming Dynasty Mongolian Waraki Lagut (Turgot) Department of the daughter of Zheheng Aga. The third lady's real name is Zhong Jin Hatun, which means noble and prominent. When Altan Khan, a right-wing Mongolian Tumut tribe, went out to warat, he married the Chilagut tribe and married Altan Khan. Altan Khan was sick in his later years, and he left everything to the judgment of the three ladies. After the death of Altan Khan in 1582, the three ladies were in charge of the army for 30 years, restraining the Mongol tribes and maintaining a peaceful tribute and mutual market relationship with the Ming Dynasty. In recognition of the merits of the three ladies, the Ming Dynasty named the three ladies as a "loyal lady". On June 26, the 40th year of Wanli (1612), the third lady died of illness, and the Ming Dynasty also sent an envoy to give a grand sacrifice of seven altars. ）

Reconcile with the Alu Korqin Division, the Monan Karaqin Division, the Ordos Division, and the Mobei Division? Although it is already known that it was the Xibei Department that provoked the civil strife in the Horqin Grassland, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the various departments. Take 10,000 steps back, even if you can really reconcile, and the strength is combined, there is no way to fight against Xibeibu, not to mention that there are Jurchens and Minggou behind them.

Surrender to Minggou? The noble golden family is no less than the noble head. Moreover, if the Chahar Ministry wants to surrender to the Ming Kingdom, it will definitely be required to hand over the jade seal of the country. The jade seal of the country is a treasure that he called on the Mongols to make a comeback, and it must not be handed over.

Migrating to the northwest? Although you can avoid the Tumut Department in the west, but walking into the vast arctic ice field is a life of death! Even if you really want to take this road, you will have to wait until after June, and far water will not quench your thirst.

Thinking about it, the most feasible thing is to surrender to Xibeibu. No matter how bastard Cha Gan is, he is still from the Golden Family, although he has taken refuge in the Jurchens and the Ming Kingdom, he still has great power.

Late at night, at the head of Chahanhot City, Tumen were walking back and forth on the city wall, thinking about the way out. The sound of horses' hooves broke the silence, and a horse rushed from the east in the darkness. After a while, Hari Bari ran over: "Great Khan! The Xibei people called! "Although I was in a bit of a hurry, I didn't panic.

Since the last time the 2,000 cavalry sent was defeated head-on, and there were less than 800 people back, Tumen also considered a way to fight against the Xibei people. He found that the castle would be a good choice to deal with the Xibei people, and a castle group composed of a dozen large castles and dozens of small and medium-sized castles should be a nightmare for the Xibei people.

Thinking that they had found a good way, the Tumen spared no effort to build more than 20 castles of various sizes with ice and snow in the east of Chahanhot, using local materials, each castle had enough manpower and grain and grass, and each had one or two hundred to five hundred troops stationed, and they could also support each other. Then all the troops were contracted, and they were ready to rely on the strong Chahanhot to fight Xibei to the death, so that the Xibei people who were fighting away could not bear the protracted heavy losses and the lack of food and grass and retreated by themselves.

But after the New Year, the self-righteous Ice Castle was shattered by the Xibei army in less than a month, and thousands of people disappeared with them.

"Hazhbari, have we failed?" Tumen asked Haribari with a wry smile. "Great Khan, no, we still have the courage and the blessing of the Immortal Heaven." Hari Bari comforted. Tumen shook his head and asked, "When will the Xibei people arrive?" "The scouts reported that two hours ago, they conquered the last ice castle, and if you count the rest time, it should be tomorrow morning." "How did you say the Xibei people conquered our ice castle group so quickly?" Tumen's questions are one after another, but no one can answer them.

In the early morning, as the sun rose, several black figures moved towards Chahanhot with the sun on their backs. After a while, everyone saw clearly that it was several cavalrymen. The cavalry quickly came to the city and stopped to the sound of neighing horses. Tumen stopped Harituri's attempt to get the archers to shoot them. An officer shouted loudly in Mongolian: "Liaoning Shulhaqi is here, please reply to the Chahar Zasaktu Khantu!" The loud voice was commanding.

"I'm Tumen! Are you a Jurchen? "Yes, I am Shuerhaqi, the commander of the Horqin Grassland Front Army of the Liaoning Army. May I ask Zasaktu Khan, to descend or not to surrender? ”

"Aren't you afraid that I will order the shooting of arrows and take your life?" "You're smart, you won't. And if you give the order to shoot me, your whole family will give me a coffin! ”

"Got it, let's talk about the conditions!" "Like the leaders of other ministries, keep the property, hand over all the tribesmen, and you and your family will arrange to live in Liaoning, give you the status of nobility, and participate in political affairs like us. You must also hand over the heirloom jade seal. ”

"Oh, have the other tribes surrendered too?" "Yes, except for the three divisions of Mobei, because they don't have many people left, and they are not qualified to surrender."

As he spoke, the Liaoning troops of the brigade arrived from the east one after another and fought under the city. One by one, the phalanx, the strict queue, the neat armor, the shining weapons, revealing the constant murderous aura, and the queue also placed a row of cannons with the thickness of the mouth of the bowl. Tumen knew artillery, but they didn't know that artillery could be made so light and could be used in field battles. Although there were a large number of dwarves in the queue and the artillery was very light, the Tumen did not doubt the combat power of the dwarves, nor did they doubt the ability of the light artillery to knock down the city walls, after all, the troops were already under the city, and these would not be blown out.

After pondering for a long time, Tumen raised his head: "Okay, put down your weapons and open the door......"
