The news of Tumer's envoy asking for help reached Liaodong.

As Fan Yongdou expected, Yuetobel asked the eight merchants to do their best to help the Tumuts stay afloat, and he wanted to leave a dagger behind Chahar's back.

In the past six months, the Jurchens and Chahars have exhausted their respective organs for the Modong Mongol tribes, and the domineering of Lin Dan Khan and the Huairou of Huang Taiji have completely divided Modong Mongolia. Huang Taiji treated the Mongols who returned to Shun extremely favorably, not only giving pasture livestock, but also providing timely relief in times of disaster.

Even so, the status of the Golden Family in the minds of most Mongolians is still under the immortal heaven, above all living beings. For the Jurchens, a united Mongol was a potentially more formidable adversary than the Ming Dynasty.

With the intervention of the eight families, this business is much simpler, with strong capital, a huge caravan, and a close relationship with the government, which are not comparable to Liu Quan's Dexiangkui. But Zhai Zhe insisted on pulling Liu Quan into this deal, so that Dexiangkui and Pingkui also got a little sweetness from it.

In order to avoid the attention of the Chahar tribes, the grain exit with the horses entering the Sedo was carried out at night. The cargo team carrying grain took advantage of the darkness to cross the mountains and mountains and rushed to Hanzhai, and Meng Kang and Xiao Zhiyan escorted them along the way. So much cargo is not delivered overnight. Fan Yongdou took this opportunity to set up a Dashengkui branch in the mouth of Kill Hu and officially settled in the west exit.

Dexiangkui and Pingkui also benefited greatly from the cooperation with the Eight Great Families, and established a reputation in Shanxi's business community.

Zhai Zhe met with Fan Yongdou twice, but did not meet his brother Zhai Tang.

Grain flowed out of the plug bit by bit, and Shanxi was full of victims. Those are exchanged for steppe livestock, and free pies do not fall from the zenith.

In September, a few light rains fell on the grasslands of Monan, but it was only a drop in the bucket for the arid land.

Lin Dan Khan's letter to the Ming court was like a stone sinking into the sea, and together with Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao, was executed by Ling Chi, no one dared to mention the alliance with the Chahar Mongols.

At the end of September, Lin Dan Khan led 30,000 iron cavalry to encircle Xinpingbao in Datong Town, which was adjacent to the grassland, and the water was impassable, and wolf smoke was everywhere. Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, urgently dispatched Lou Kejing, the chief soldier of Datong, to rescue, and Dong Jishu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, was on alert.

Under Xinping Fort, the Chahar cavalry rushed around and covered the sky.

"Siege! Besiege! Let Daming taste the power of my Chahar warriors! Lin Dan Khan roared loudly, his voice was hoarse, and he looked a little hysterical.

"Great Khan Breathe Fury! Great Khan Breathes Anger! Amur admonished.

The Mongol cavalry first rode and threw under the castle, and then carried up the improvised wooden ladder to begin the siege.

Xinping Fort is one of the strongest castles along the border of the Ming Dynasty, which has been repaired year after year, and the city is high and the walls are thick. The Chahar cavalry were well mounted and archered, but had no armor to protect them and had never been trained to siege cities.

The garrison in the fort resisted to the death under the leadership of the garrison Jiang Jiao, and the boiling dung water at the head of the city was poured head-on, and the gunpowder smoke was filled after the loud sound of the three-eyed gun, and the Chahar people could not resist, and the wooden ladder was burned down, and countless people fell down.

Amur, who watched the battle, was sad in his heart, and everyone who died here was a warrior of Chahar.

This battle is meaningless, even if Xinping Fort is captured, and even Datong Mansion is captured, what can the Ming Dynasty never give in to the grassland since the founding of the country. In the more than ten years since the Great Khan ascended the throne, Chahar has been fighting in the east and west, pointing at the blade, and the Mongol tribes that have been killed directly are frightened, and they have fallen to the Jurchens, and the former brothers have become enemies under the sharp blade of the Chahar people, and now this sharp knife is swinging towards the former ally Daming.

"I want to be the enemy of the world!"

Amur suddenly felt that he would never see the day when the Great Khan would rule Mongolia.

The Chahars lacked siege equipment and no siege experience, and they did not capture Xinping Fort for two consecutive days. Section \u4

On the 9th, Lou Kejing, the commander of Datong, led reinforcements to Xinpingbao thirty miles away.

The elite soldiers of Datong Town have already been buried under the city of Beijing with Man Gui in their own years, and now there are no soldiers worthy of a war. After receiving Zhang Zongheng's order, Lou Kejing complained that the governor and governor from a literati did not know how to deal with military affairs, and he deliberately dispatched the general troops of various towns to resist the enemy when he was in charge of the border war. Now there are tens of thousands of Mongolian iron cavalry, and Datong Town, excluding the guards and sergeants, can only fight five or six thousand people, how can they resist?

Fearing the enemy without fighting, Xinpingbao fell, Lou Kejing could not escape the dismissal of the official and sent the army, desperately fighting the enemy, the result was not much better, maybe he would die in Huangquan.

There is no solution!

Lou Kejing finally managed to get to the position of the general army of Datong, if it weren't for the fact that a large number of deputy generals of the general army were convicted and reprimanded, he would not have been promoted so quickly. Now the first thing he wants to scold is Lin Dan Khan, who besieged Xinpingbao for no reason, and then he wants to scold Zhang Zongheng, the governor of Xuanda, who knew that there were tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry in the Kou, but only let him come to the rescue.

The Chahar scout cavalry soon probed the Ming reinforcements and returned to the camp to report.

When Lin Dan Khan heard that the Ming army was coming to help, he calmed down a little and ordered the soldiers to stop attacking the city for a while and prepare to meet the reinforcements.

Amur could not hold back any longer, and admonished: "Great Khan, don't start a war at will. The Han people have a saying that although the country is great and warlike, it will perish. Now I, Chahar, have enemies on the left and right. Even if you kill the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty, it is futile to capture Xinping Fort, sacrifice the warriors for no reason, and retreat. ”

Lin Dan Khan was furious and said: "I begged for the exchange of markets with great humility, but the Ming Emperor ignored it, if he didn't capture a few of his cities, where would the face of the Mongol Great Khan beg." The Han people are cowardly, so why should we be afraid of him. ”

Amur persuaded again: "Although the Han people are cowardly, the Ming Dynasty is strong, and it is not comparable to Chahar, and the Liaodong Jurchen is the enemy of Chahar." ”

"You retreat, watch me break through the Ming reinforcements tomorrow, and then break Xinping Fort."

Lin Dan Khan was already extremely impatient, and if it weren't for the fact that Amur had followed him for many years, he would have ordered the guards to blast him out.

Amur's heart was like ashes, and \

u6of3 More than ten years ago, when Lin Dan Khan took Sharba Hutuketu as his national teacher and changed his Yellow Religion to Red Religion, many Chahar elders admonished each other to death, and the things that the Great Khan decided could not be changed. The conversion to the Red Religion caused many Mongol tribes to turn away from Chahar, and the Mobei Khalkha and the 30,000 right-wing tribes that originally supported the Great Khan gradually distanced themselves from the Great Khan and slowly threw themselves into the arms of the Jurchens who believed in the Yellow Sect.

The Mongol cavalry of the brigade pulled out the camp, and one was left to surround Xinping Fort.

It was getting late that day, and Lou Kejing did not dare to go deep alone, so he led the soldiers and horses of Datong Town to find a dangerous terrain and station, and confronted the Chahar cavalry.

The weather is sunny and the moon is bright on the grassland.

The Mongol army prepared to attack the next day, and in the middle of the night two fast horses rushed from the Modong steppe to the Chahar camp.

When it was dark, Lin Dan Khan received a nightmare message. The Modong Alu Korqin Tribe, the Sizi Tribe, and the Aruisut Department were ready to surrender to the Jurchens due to drought, and Huang Taiji promised to provide them with pasture and even grain and grass.

Wrath! Fly into a rage! Yells! The utensils on the desk kicked by Lin Dan Khan in the sweat tent were flying around, and the guards outside the tent were silent.

Amur got the news and hurried to the Khan's tent, ignoring the Khan's rage: "Great Khan, Modong Mongolia must not be allowed to do such an act, if all the tribes compete to follow suit, there will no longer be a place for me Chahar in the steppe." ”

"Exactly."

"It's better to send a large army to Modong to deter and give warnings to all ministries to reassure them."

Lin Dan Khan was silent for a long time before saying, "I know that you don't want me to attack the Ming Dynasty, so I listened to your advice this time." ”

"The Great Khan is wise."

The 30,000 Chahar iron horsemen slowly retreated, and the Ming Biansai was full of joy.

For the rest of the life of the defenders of Xinpingbao, Lou Kejing was unbelievable.

"Xinpingbao Victory!" "Xinpingbao Victory!"

The knight who gave the order ran on the official road leading to Datong Mansion, and Lou Kejing, the chief soldier of Datong, was not successful and reported to the military department.
