On the fifth day of Zhou Huchen's rest in Fuyuwei, the Horqin Mongols came first, except for the distant Alu Korqin and the rest of the distant tribes, and then all the nearby tribes arrived.

The Mongols had always been wary of each other, and with the threat of the Ming army, these tribal leaders naturally brought a lot of cavalry. When they saw Zhou Huchen's huge army stationed, the tribes began to set up their tents at a safe distance.

Except for sending someone to meet Zhou Huchen, these tribal leaders had a very tacit understanding, and none of them came in person, and the precaution seemed to be still very heavy.

One after another, many Mongolian cavalry came to Fuyuwei's territory, plus Zhou Huchen's more than 100,000 troops, which brought a great excitement to this lonely territory. Badali, Manzhu Xili, Wu Keshan, Guru Siqi, many Mongolian leaders and important people gathered in this land.

In fact, the news of the victory of the Ming army was expected, and it had been spread one after another, but the Mongolian nobles did not expect Zhou Huchen to win so quickly, and the powerful Qing Dynasty collapsed like this. Although they knew the result, seeing was believing, and the Mongol leaders who ran here were nothing more than listening to the accurate news of the Ming and Qing Dynasty battles, and by the way, it was somewhat unrealistic to negotiate in their favor and confront them.

Since Zhou Huchen's army is unusually complete, there is no need to listen to it, and there is no need to hesitate, the battle is unrealistic, and what is needed now is to sit down and talk.

In order to avoid too much suspicion of each other, a large tent was erected at a great distance from the garrisons of both sides, under the coordination of Lamur. The leaders of the Mongol tribes and some tribal representatives all participated, while the people led by Zhou Huchen were obviously smaller than these Mongol leaders.

Supervising each other outside the tent from afar to remove weapons, Zhou Huchen led his subordinates to enter the big tent first calmly. In order to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, Lamur equipped the big tent with a lot of things, in addition to some regular Mongolian food, but also specially prepared a small wooden table for Zhou Huchen.

With the Mongol tribal leaders in Monan entering the accounts, a negotiation that both sides were looking forward to was about to begin.

The Mongols who entered the big tent were a little chaotic, and they were all acquaintances. In addition to exchanging pleasantries and exchanging ears, these Mongolian leaders were obviously a little uneasy. Different from the apprehension of the Mongolian tribal leaders, Zhou Huchen and his subordinates, who occupied the other end of the big tent, were calm, no one exchanged heads, and no one moved casually.

In fact, there are not a few generals among the people behind Zhou Huchen, and most of these people are family members, Zhou Huchen's own family members. The heart of defense is indispensable. Zhou Huchen didn't want to be in any danger to himself, his good days had just begun, and for the sake of safety, almost all of these family members who looked like generals were warriors of a hundred battles, and they were the strongest family members under him.

The scene was not very satisfying, and the supreme leader Badali decisively shouted a few times before everyone shut up, and then the two sides could finally salute.

Now, the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols have not restored their former subordinate relationship, and the two sides are meeting each other peacefully. And in the heart of Badali. He always held a trace of illusion, he hoped that Zhou Huchen would lead the army to evacuate, evacuate Inner Mongolia, and then let Inner Mongolia govern itself. Ignore it.

Although the hope is very slim, Badali still wants to be the supreme leader of Inner Mongolia, and this leader is estimated to have no problem without the interference of the Ming Dynasty, and he has a great future for development. Today, Badali is here with this greatest fantasy in mind.

It's a pity that Zhou Huchen undermined the grand ideals of Badali when he opened his mouth.

"You leaders probably already know. Ben Shuai has defeated Jiannu, and the remnants of Jianzhou have been chased to the mountains, and there is not much left, and it is only in the moment that they are destroyed. Ben Shuai has also communicated with the imperial court, and the subordinate relationship between the ministries of Inner Mongolia and Jiannu has ended, and the coercion of the previous Minu by Jiannu is also over. As for the previous matter, the imperial court will not pursue it, and the imperial court will also re-canonize the ministries, and all tribes will maintain their current territorial status, as for whether to use the guard, or use the banner, the alliance will send a special envoy to negotiate. ”

The defeat of the Jianzhou people was known news, and as for the re-canonization of the Ming court, it was a normal situation, but despite this, Zhou Huchen's words still caused a buzz among the Mongolian leaders.

Badali and Manzhu Xili were silent, both of them naturally did not want to be re-under the control of the Ming court, and many tribes were actually the same, although the treatment of the Ming court was destined to be much better than that of the Jianzhou people in the future, but an Inner Mongolia that could be controlled by themselves was the most ideal outcome.

Zhou Huchen understands this, but unfortunately, this Inner Mongolia does not carry out canonization, don't say that he can't call the shots, even the emperor dares to make this kind of decision, although the courtiers of the Ming Dynasty are sometimes very unbearable, and some things are even more incomprehensible, but everyone knows the power of this kind of border defense, and Inner Mongolia, which is closest to the border wall, cannot be abandoned, otherwise, this wall will never be peaceful.

"The various ministries of Inner Mongolia have belonged to the Ming Dynasty in the past, and the imperial court does not want the war to continue, nor does it want disputes to always arise in the future, so for the sake of the Ming Dynasty and for the Mongolian compatriots to rest assured, this canonization must be carried out, please be ready." Zhou Huchen's words are tantamount to telling the truth, but the threat in it is very heavy, which can be regarded as a victor's posture.

The noise in the big tent was getting louder and louder, and the Mongolian leaders were discussing the pros and cons with each other, which was in stark contrast to the quiet wait-and-see of Zhou Huchen's side.

It was impossible for the Mongol chieftains to negotiate a happy outcome under such circumstances, and the chaotic situation continued

"Everyone, be quiet! Be quiet! Badali had been thinking cross-legged on the carpet, and it was clear that he had made a decision, so he decisively put a stop to the chaos.

Badali had been waiting for a long time, and this kind of waiting was indeed a less than ideal result, so he simply gave up his illusion for the time being, because it was impossible for him to let Inner Mongolia rekindle the flames of war: "May I ask the marshal, will our territory follow the precedent?" “

"This is natural, no one's territory will change, and the imperial court will also be responsible for regulating the conflicts between the tribes." Zhou Huchen replied with confidence:

"Then may I ask the marshal, will the imperial court draw Ding like Jianzhou?"

"This reassures Tushetu Khan that there is no such precedent in the imperial court, that is, when it is necessary to use soldiers, it will also adopt the conscription system, and will give corresponding remuneration, and whether or not to be recruited is completely voluntary, and will never forcibly recruit soldiers." Zhou Huchen's answer was categorical.

Politics requires some superficial effort, and the use of soldiers and combat is a more complicated matter, and Zhou Huchen's words have already made Badali somewhat satisfied, because not only is the way of using soldiers more ideal, but his title also uses the title of Tushetu Khan. The use of this title is actually equivalent to admitting that the Ming court will continue to canonize Badali as Tushetu Khan, which is what Badali needs most.

"May I ask the marshal, does the imperial court provide weapons for recruiting soldiers?"

"Of course, you have to provide weapons, since you are recruited as a mercenary of the imperial court, you will use the equipment of the Ming Dynasty." Zhou Huchen continued to go down simply, as for what the standard equipment is, you can guess for yourself.

Bowing slightly, Badali continued his efforts: "I remember that when the marshal left the paddock, he said that you would let the merchants bring sufficient daily necessities to the Mongolian tribes, and that trade would be fully traded, so may I ask the marshal whether this promise will be valid in the future." ”

In fact, Badali is asking Zhou Huchen, your merchants can't always trade with the paddock in Chengde, and our other tribes need it too.

Zhou Huchen smiled: "Ben Shuai made a promise, as long as the safety of the merchants can be guaranteed, they will travel all over the prairie, even the most remote mountains and forests and desert areas will also have the footprints of the merchants." There is also the issue of tribute, which everyone is familiar with, and the imperial court will naturally not treat it badly"

The conditions and questions are almost raised, Zhou Huchen's answer did not hesitate at all, these conditions are much more lenient than during the reign of Jianzhou, which can be described as the most ideal, except for the disillusionment, Badali is quite satisfied, he stood up and saluted: "Can the marshal wait for a few days, three days later, the heads of the department will give the marshal an answer." ”

"Yes, no problem!" Zhou Huchen was mature in his chest, he agreed, and followed with a few words: "But don't delay too long, there will be a military operation in the near future, and there will be logistics supplies from our army in the next few days, I hope that all departments will be accommodating when passing through the territory of various ministries, so as not to cause unnecessary disputes." ”

In fact, the supplies this time are food and clothing, and Zhou Huchen has plenty of ammunition, so he doesn't have to be too afraid of the Mongols tearing his face, and he won't cause substantial damage to himself in the event of an accident, because he can get enough supplies in the grassland by himself. It's just that that kind of approach is more cruel, and it is not in line with long-term interests, and it is not conducive to one's overall jihua. If it really happened, Zhou Huchen would of course let the Mongols know that he was inviolable.

The matter of supply is nothing, as long as they do not want to go to war, the Mongol tribes will naturally not attack the logistics army of the Ming army. But what Zhou Huchen said about the military action behind was full of temptation, and it also reminded Badali of the rumor.

Looking at Zhou Huchen, Badali still thought that he couldn't exit in this situation, so Badali hesitated, and he said goodbye to Zhou Huchen.

The two sides went their separate ways, not far from the big tent, Zhou Huchen got on the horse and began to leave, at this time Zheng Sen couldn't help it again: "Dashuai, I haven't heard that these conditions have a will from the imperial court, don't you come nonsense, otherwise, what will you do in the future?" ”

"There will be a decree coming, and it will make me act cheaply, but I can't wait now, so I can only use it in advance!" Zhou Huchen was actually smiling, and he smiled brightly: "How can the people of Inner Mongolia listen to me if they don't pull the tiger skin?" Since you want to use them, you have to give benefits, but there will be many follow-ups to this benefit! ”

It turns out that he is really pulling the tiger skin to make a banner! Zheng Sen's heart was beating for a while, Zhou Huchen is a tiger guts, and the most domineering person in the Ming Dynasty really deserves his reputation! (To be continued......)
