Not to mention the chaotic situation in Siberia, although the time has not yet reached the beginning of April, the power struggle meeting in Kulen has already been staged in advance.

"Naadam" is a Mongolian language, and "Mu" is a transliteration of Mongolian, which means "entertainment, games", to express the joy of a good harvest. This "Naadam" is more special, it is not a traditional grassland event that starts on the fourth day of the sixth lunar month (mostly in July and August of the solar calendar when the grass is green and the flowers are red, and the sheep are fat and the horses are strong). Rather, it is a gathering with a political purpose.

No, there are still more than ten days before the start time, and people from all walks of life have already appeared on the stage. The first to come were the Japanese, and they did not come alone, but also the representatives of White Russia in the Far East, and their purpose was also very clear, that is, to let Mongolia contain the Soviet Russian army in the Far East. As for the future in the Far East, that is, the Japanese eat meat, and the Mongolians drink soup!

Although what they said seemed to be within reach, Timur had been instructed by Zhao Yun that it was not offensive to the Japanese, but it was not support, just one word "consumption"!

And the Feng system, which is also in the northeast, is not slow, and in order to win over the Chechen department, they are willing to give up the occupied Hulunbuir.

It turned out that a few years ago, when Mongolia was preparing for independence, Zhang Huzi was also angry at the crown and sent troops to destroy the Mongolian nobles on the Hulunbuir steppe, who were also preparing to become independent. No, the territory that is eaten, Zhang Hu doesn't want to spit it out.

But recently, Zhang Huzi wants to develop to Jixian County in the west, if then, the Mongolian army that comes and goes like the wind suddenly goes south, and the whistling cavalry can definitely cause great pressure on Jixian. But if this army, which comes and goes like the wind, is obtained by Jixian, then Zhang Huzi's fun will be great. The Mongol cavalry could come to the northeast at any time to wander around. If Zhang Huzi wants to advance westward at that time, he must first settle these steppe cavalry.

As for Britain and the United States, which represent the interests of the civilized world, they sent ambassadors together, and the road was not peaceful, so the ambassadors of the two countries also hugged each other, and the speed of the trip was slightly slower. The purpose of their coming is also very clear, whether Mongolia throws itself into the arms of Soviet Russia or not has nothing to do with them. However, armaments have a lot to do with these countries, and the prices are relatively realistic, with planes and tanks, but they have to be bought with money. If you don't have money, then the mine is also a good mortgage object.

After entering April, the direct family members who entered Jixian County also arrived ten days before the start of the conference, and their purpose was very clear, as soon as they arrived in Kulun, they ran around, won over the leaders of various tribes, and talked about the republican policy of the five tribes. In fact, it is to recover Mongolia and make up for it. After all, Xu Shuzheng, who is from the Anhui family, has already taken Outer Mongolia back, and lost it in the hands of their direct family.

It is an indisputable fact that no matter how you justify it.

As for the representatives of Inner Mongolia, it is very simple, it is to unite the Mongolian tribes, and there are no other requirements. Oh! Another point is to come to wrestle and ride horses with the warriors of Outer Mongolia!

But there was another special figure in their journey, and that was the king, who had come to reclaim his lost territory. He is also the most prestigious figure in Mongolia other than the Chechen Khan.

Nayantu is a native of the Outer Mongolian Saiyin Nuoyan Department. Twenty-seven generations of descendants of Genghis Khan. Born into a hereditary princely family, his ancestors were named Prince Zasak (i.e., Prince Khalkha and King Chaoyong) by the emperor, and "hereditary succession", in addition to receiving the honor of Shangzhu (marrying a princess) twice, Nayantu's father Dalma was the son-in-law of Prince Yi Zaiyuan.

In the thirteenth year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Nayan tried to attack the seventh generation of Khalkha princes, also known as "that king", who was the companion of Guangxu when he learned to ride and shoot when he was a child, and Guangxu was four years old. His father-in-law was Prince Qing, and in order to control the power of Outer Mongolia, Cixi reused Nayantu, so that he and his father-in-law, Prince Qing, had a lot of power, and successively served as the former minister of the Qing court, the minister of the guard, the commander of the Eight Banners, and the minister of the Shangxi Yuan.

It can be seen that its prestige among the old-style Mongolian nobles is high, and the Chechen Khan is also uneasy about its arrival!

This guy has no military power because he is in Jixian County, but this time he did not come with the convoy of the Beiyang government, but went to Inner Mongolia for a turn and borrowed some soldiers and horses before going on the road. So it wasn't too late for him to get the news, but it was the last and second to arrive.

When he arrived, farmers and herdsmen from all over the country rode horses and chariots, carrying furs, medicinal herbs and other agricultural and animal husbandry products. Crowds gathered in front of the city of Cullen, on the square where the convention was held. Many people began to set up white yurts on the green grassland around the venue.

According to the traditional habits of the Mongolian people, there have always been three types of "Naadam" conferences: large, medium and small. The large-scale "Naadam" conference, with 512 people and about 300 horses participating in the wrestling tournament, lasted for seven to ten days; The medium-sized "Naadam" convention, with 256 wrestlers and 100 to 150 horses, lasted from five to seven days; The small "Naadam" convention, with 128 or 64 wrestlers and about 30 to 50 horses, lasts three to five days.

This time the Mongols won a rare victory in recent years, and the Chechen Khan, for the sake of his own prestige, deliberately held a large-scale congress and prepared various matters early.

When the sun sank on the last day before the start of the conference, and night fell, the melody of the horse-head piano began to waft on the grassland, and the young men and women sang and danced lightly around the bonfire, and people were immersed in the joy of the festival.

Among the guests invited by the Chechen Khan, the last representative of the people, the westernmost friend, also arrived on time. They came from afar for the ambition of uniting against Soviet Russia. In order to reach Kulun, they rushed to Shaanxi to make a detour.

There is no way, Lao Maozi's 5th Cavalry Division is inserted at the junction of Outer Mongolia and Western Xinjiang, and Lao Maozi has ambitions for both places. So in the face of Lao Maozi's fierce eyes, he had no choice but to unite the two families to deal with Soviet Russia.

The representatives of the seven roads have gathered in Kulun, and a confrontation battle has officially begun.

Among these seven people, the one with a clear banner is the king all the way, and the other roads are all here to seek cooperation, and there is room for bargaining. But the king's way was to swallow the Chechen Khan and unify the tribes of Outer Mongolia.

After the outbreak of the Wuchang Uprising, Yuan Shikai formed a cabinet, and Nayantu and others established the Mongolian Princes' Federation (also known as the Mongolian Fellow Townsmen Federation), with Nayantu as the president, and actively carried out the patriotic struggle against Russia; Later, led by Gongsang Norbu, Nayantu and others, and in the name of the "Mongolian Princes' Federation", on behalf of all the Mongolian princes of Inner and Outer Mongolia, submitted a letter to Yuan Shikai, the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, whose main purpose was to "preserve the monarch", oppose the republic, and prevent the abdication of the Qing emperor; Re-energized Yuan Shikai.

After the abdication of the Qing Emperor, he successively served as the deputy capital of the Great Presidential Palace, General Uriya Sutai (not yet in office), conferred the rank of general, successive members of the National Assembly and vice president of the provisional Senate in 1917, and a member of the Republican Party and the Progressive Party who supported Yuan.

It can be seen that it represents Outer Mongolia in the Beiyang government, and Inner Mongolia is represented by Gongsang Norbu.

This Gongsang Norbu is much more powerful than that king, but he is not like that king who only knows how to eat, drink and enjoy himself, but is truly pragmatic.

Gongsang Norbu is a descendant of Genghis Khan's vassal Lemi, the hereditary prince of Zasak of the Karaqin Right Banner of the Zhuosuotu League, and the head of the Zhuosuotu League. "Zhuo Suo Tu League" is one of the four eastern leagues of Inner Mongolia. Unlike the prince whose territory is occupied by Lao Maozi, this is a real Mongolian prince, and some people have horses and knives and guns.

Because the Beiyang government emphasized the "republic of the five ethnic groups (referring to the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui, and Tibetan) people", it formulated regulations for preferential treatment of Mongolian princes, and he and many Inner Mongolian princes supported the republic. In September 1912, he was appointed president of the Bureau of Mongolian and Tibetan Affairs, and in October, he was promoted to the title of prince, and in May 1914, after the reorganization of the Bureau of Mongolian and Tibetan Affairs into the Institute of Mongolian and Tibetan Affairs, he still served as president, and was the "chief manager" of the central border ethnic affairs organization for a long time. This is the representative of Inner Mongolia.

Nayantu and Gongsang Norbu, one is a descendant of Genghis Khan, and the other is a descendant of Genghis Khan's lord Lemei, not to mention the relationship between these two ancestors, even if they are currently in the Beiyang government, they are also inside and outside, one virtual and one real, supporting the Mongolian scene at the top.

Encountering these two masters, it is no wonder that the Chechen Khan, who has been staying in the Mongolian steppe, is so uneasy. After all, the only merit he could get in his hands was to seize the city of Kulen, and he had no strong supporters in his hands except for Timur and others. Compared with the king, it is like a rich man in a township who has met a rich second generation from the same village, but has already seen the world in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Compared with financial resources, it is not a little worse, but it is 108,000 miles worse than confidence.

"What? You said that those people from Sayin Shanda met with the fat man of Nayantu? Chechen Khan asked urgently.

"Yes, Great Khan, it was the little ones who saw it with their own eyes. We originally wanted to go to them for a drink, but as soon as we arrived at the camp gate, we saw Nashun personally sending the king out of the camp. Every time Jiya Saiyin said a word, Dakou Achi nodded his head in agreement.

Jiya Saiyin and Dakou Achi were sent by the Chechen Khan to make an alliance with the people of Rasaiyin Shanda, but I didn't expect Nayantu to deign to go in person. Although I don't know what the effect is, at this time the heart of the Chechen Khan is a desolation.

In the middle of the sound, the Chechen Khan regained his strength and asked his chief general Timur for help, "Timur, what do you say should be done now?" ”

Chechen Khan was anxious because he was worried that Nashun and others would defect and throw themselves to Nayantu. However, Timur knew that although the team of Nashun and others was not stationed with the Chechen Ministry for the reason of preventing enemy attacks, there were many monks in their ranks.

Timur did not dare to say this to ensure that all of them were loyal, but as long as they made a slight move, Timur was confident that he could control the scene.
