There are many small lakes in the area of Toritu, and there is often heavy fog, and the fog is even more heavy on this day, and the sun has been out for a long time, and it has not dispersed. Taking advantage of the heavy fog, the Eight Banners completed the encirclement of Toriktu.

Halfway through the hour, the fog gradually cleared. The Chahars found that in the mist, there were flags fluttering, and the camps were connected.

The grasslands, like the sea, often appear mirages, and some soldiers shout happily: "Look, ghosts." ”

Everyone looked in the direction pointed by these soldiers, and sure enough, it was a ghost in the air, and they couldn't help cheering.

A veteran watched it for a long time and scolded loudly: "Don't fucking call, it's the Eight Banners, we are surrounded." ”

A soldier laughed and said, "Nonsense, where are the Eight Banners here?" ”

The veteran was so angry that he scolded: "Wake up the fuck, don't you smell the smell of barbecue?" ”

was reminded by the veteran, everyone took a deep breath, and Yipin was suddenly frightened: it's really meaty!

Oh no, we're really surrounded! The Chahar soldiers were terrified. More and more Chahars discovered the Eight Banners who surrounded them, and all at once they were in disarray, and the whole camp was full of screams.

"Oh no, the Jurchens have surrounded us!" One of the guards reacted and was the first to run over and report to Ezhe.

Ezhe ran out of the big tent when he heard the news, only to see that the Eight Banners had surrounded the three outer layers of the Torituri. Ezhe suddenly panicked, and he scolded left and right: "You waste, so many golden soldiers surrounded you, and you didn't notice it at all? Light sleeping? ”

At this time, someone outside the tent shouted: "Ezhe, I am your uncle Nan Chu, and Dolgon, the general of the Dajin Kingdom, is here to see you and your mother." ”

Ezheshun looked out, vaguely, a very familiar figure stood there, and he shouted in surprise: "Uncle Nan Chu, it's really Uncle Nan Chu!" Quick, quick, please come in. ”

Nan Chu is the Houjin who defected with Ang Kundu, I don't know who told Su Tai the news of Nan Chu's arrival, Su Tai thought that his own brother had died in the chaos, where did he know that he was still alive. Excited, he stumbled out of the tent, shouting as he ran: "Nan Chu, is it Nan Chu?" ”

Nan Chu had come to the tent at this time, and he also shouted excitedly: "Sister, it's me, I'm Nan Chu." When the two sisters and brothers met in a foreign country, they couldn't help but hug their heads and cry.

After crying for a while, Nan Chu stood up and pointed to a young general behind him and said, "Sister, this is Dolgon, the general of the Dajin Kingdom. ”

Dolgon?!

Su Tai was taken aback, only then did she notice that there was a young golden general behind Nan Zhen, she watched carefully, and saw that Dolgon was very young, although he was not handsome, but he was better than a smile, compared to his fat brother Huang Taiji, who was as fat as a pig, he was really good-looking, and he was still vigilant, seeing that the Jurchens did not attack in a big way, she was a little relieved, she bowed to Dolgon, and said coldly: "I don't know if the general is coming, I miss the welcome, and I hope the general will forgive me." ”

Dolgon touched his chest with his right hand and saluted back: "Dolgon greets the Queen Mother." ”

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Ezhe, don't hurry up and meet the general." Su Tai knew that he used to be worthy of the title of the queen mother, but now he definitely can't deserve it. She motioned for her son to salute Dorgon, guessing that Dolgon's trip was eighty percent to persuade him to surrender.

Ezhe's face was very ugly, and he didn't want to come forward to greet Dolgon, but Dolgon took the initiative and stepped forward to greet Ezhe. After reluctantly saluting him, Ezhe took two steps back and stayed by his mother, the Empress Dowager Sutai.

"Please sit in the general's tent."

The visitor was a guest, and the golden soldiers did not attack, so Sutai asked Dolgon to enter the account. Dorgon entered the tent and sat down, once again touched his chest with his right hand, and bowed: "When the Khan heard that the Queen Mother and Ezhebel had returned to the east, he immediately sent me and others to greet him, and this general greeted the Queen Mother and Belle on behalf of the Khan. ”

Hearing his words, Odos and Totoro, who rushed to hear the news, suddenly showed displeasure on their faces, and secretly said that Dolgon, a doll of the Golden Kingdom, dared to call the young master of my family Baylor, how could it be reasonable!

But Ezhe and Su Tai did not have any dissatisfaction, especially Su Tai's face was a little more expectant, Odos knew that the Tao was not good, so he whispered to Totoro: "The erector cannot be assisted, you are here to deal with them, I will go to the tent to transfer a few people." ”

Optoro nodded slightly, and Odos excused himself to have a distinguished guest come to prepare a drink and entertain him out of the big tent.

Dolgon's surviving Odos came out of the account, knowing what he wanted to do, he sneered in his heart, but said in his mouth: "The Queen Mother and Ezhebel came all the way from Qinghai, it was very difficult, and the general specially prepared ten sheep and five jars of wine to show condolences. ”

Hearing this, Nan Chu hurriedly waved his hand, and several Jin soldiers who came with them immediately brought the gifts in.

The Empress Dowager Sutai trembled when she thought of the days of exile in Qinghai, and when she saw that Dolgon did not force her, and brought gifts, her heart was warm, and she had already made up her mind to return the gold. She said with tears in her eyes: "Thanks to the gift of the general, the mourning family and Ezhe have thanked me here." ”

The departure of the Empress Dowager Nang made Ezhe no longer have any ambitions, and the days of exile were really bitter for him, so he asked: "How will the general teach me when he comes this time?" ”

Dolgon said with a smile: "The Jurchen and the Mongolian clothes are the same, believe in the same religion, the Jurchen is Mongolia, Mongolia is the Jurchen, the two generations of in-laws, have become one." Now that all the Mongolian tribes have returned to gold, there is an old saying in the Central Plains, calling those who know the times to be Junjie, please make a decision as soon as possible to end the suffering of this upheaval and displacement. ”

After hearing this, Ezhe lowered his head and did not immediately express his position. The Empress Dowager Su Tai is eyes flickered, and her heart has already decided.

Tokhtaro knew that the Tao was not good, but he was afraid that Sutai would agree to invest in the gold, so he scolded Dolgon and said: "Stop, I, Chahar, am the descendant of Genghis Khan, and I am a nobleman, what are you Jurchen?" Our Mongols have always had a clear enmity and enmity, you took away our people, robbed our cattle and sheep, occupied our steppe, forced us to sweat and go into exile in Qinghai, and died in a foreign land. ”

Hearing Totoro's words, Nan Chu was also furious, dedicated to defending his master, and got up and scolded: "Totoro, you old immortal, you dare to insult the general of my Dajin Kingdom, you are impatient." ”

Dolgon sat upright, with no joy or anger on his face, and said to Totoro: "My lord's words are wrong, where did my Dajin and Chahar come from?" Those who do not share the heavens with Chahar are not my big gold, but the Ming Kingdom. In the past, Genghis Khan, Kublai Khan, and Wokotai the Great swept across the Central Plains and dominated the world. However, Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty rose, Dayuan was defeated, and Zhu Yuanzhang was driven back to the desert. The general does not want to avenge the shame of his ancestors, but instead takes my Dajin as the enemy. ”

"Nonsense!"

Tothro was momentarily speechless by Dorgon's refutation, and he didn't know how to refute him, so he could only stare at him, and his mouth moved a few times, but he didn't speak.

Dolgon had the upper hand, and he was complacent, and continued: "Lin Dan Khan's death in a foreign land is not my fault of Dajin, but his own fault. Back then, Chahar rose in the thousands of miles of grassland, and all the departments near and far looked up, thinking that Mongolia was expected to flourish. However, although Lin Dan Khan had a good beginning, he could not end well, and after the national strength was a little stronger, he would have a heart of arrogance and extravagance......"

Hearing this, Totoro couldn't help but interrupt: "How can you talk nonsense about my great khan!" ”

Dolgon was very patient, he was unhurried, and said with a smile: "Boss, please don't be angry, if you want to find out the grievances between my Dajin and Chahar, it is inevitable that some past events will be involved, please forgive me." Boss, General Ben has a question, I want to ask Lord Yu, I wonder if the Lord is willing to give advice? ”

Totoro snorted, "Whatever you want." ”

"Okay, may I ask, how about this general exchange this silver armor for a thousand horses for you?" With that, Dorgon pointed to the silver armor he was wearing.

Tothro did not know what Dolgon was up to, but it was not a good deal to exchange a piece of armor for a thousand horses, and he immediately retorted: "How can it be? Even if you are a golden armor, you are not worth a thousand horses. ”

Dolgon shook his head and smiled, "If General Ben is not mistaken, sixteen years ago, it was you who were ordered by Lin Dan Khan to replace the five hundred horses of the Alu tribe with a pair of iron armor. ”

Totoro then realized that he had fallen into Dorgon's trap, and his face was flushed with anger.

Dolgon still said calmly: "People have BMWs, Lin Dan Khan forcibly takes them, people have condors, Lin Dan Khan forcibly takes them, as for the beauties and property, they are even more wanton and wantonly, so treat the people like this, can they not betray their relatives and leave?" So first Korqin, then the Fifth Department of Monan Khalkha, and then Ordos and others successively defected to my Dajin. Lin Dan Khan did not repent, insisted on being the enemy of my Dajin, I attacked Guangning, Lin Dan Khan sent troops to help Ming defend Guangning; I attacked Ningyuan, and Lin Dan Khan sent troops to help Ming defend Ningyuan. As for the first battle of Ningyuan, my first Khan was wounded by the heavy artillery of the Nanban. Investigate it, I first Khan's death, Lin Dan Khan can hardly escape the blame, and this is also a deep hatred. The king of my family is generous and benevolent, and he is not to blame for the past, and he knows that Daoer and others are in a difficult situation, so he specially sent me to wait thousands of miles to come to greet him, hoping that he can release his past suspicions and not get entangled in old accounts. ”

Dolgon's reasoning was uttered, and Totoro was speechless, and sat down silently.

Dolgon struck while the iron was hot and said to Su Tai: "Queen Mother Su Tai, this is a letter from the Queen Mother, please read it." ”

Su Tai asked eagerly, "Where is the Empress Dowager now?" ”

Dolgon said: "I have returned to Dajin, and now I am on my way to Shengjing." ”

Su Tai didn't say anything after hearing this, opened the letter, and wept while reading: "In that case, Ezhe, let's also return to gold." ”

As soon as he heard that Sutai wanted to return to gold, Totoro cried in a hurry: "Queen Mother, we must not return to gold, the first Khan said on his deathbed, Chahar and the Jurchen do not share the sky, if it is returned to gold, what will be the face of the first Khan in the ground in the future?" ”

Su Tai was also anxious, and said angrily: "You are the founding minister, you should be more knowledgeable than others, now most of the Chahar Department has been returned to gold, and there are more than 1,000 of us left, if you don't return to gold, you will still be buried in the desert?" ”

"The jade seal is still in our hands, as long as the jade seal is there, I, Chahar, will make a comeback sooner or later, Queen Mother, are you really willing to give up Chahar to the enemies of the grassland?" Totoro persuaded him bitterly.

Nan Chu was anxious to listen, and was anxious to make meritorious service in front of his master Dolgon, so he stepped forward and scolded: "You old miscellaneous hair, you don't open your eyes to see, the land of Tolitu is surrounded like an iron bucket, and there are only a thousand old, weak, sick and disabled households, and if you hand over your hands, it will come to naught in an instant, do you still want to make a comeback?" What a fucking dayfart dream! ”

After scolding, he suddenly turned around and asked the other Chahar soldiers under his account: "The Queen Mother has decided to return the gold, do you still want to go against Dajin and die in vain?" ”

Everyone look at me, I look at you, after a moment of silence, they said to Su Tai and Ezhe in unison: "We agree with the Queen Mother's return to gold." ”

Everyone was willing to surrender, and Dolgon breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Nanyu, and secretly said that this is a good minion. Seeing this, Ezhe also made up his mind, and he said to Dolgon: "General, my mother and I will immediately count the people, books, and jewels, and return to Shun early tomorrow morning with the jade seal of the country." Then he turned his head and shouted and reprimanded Totoro: "The queen mother and I have decided to reduce the gold, you don't want to read it again, I have made up my mind, and those who violate the order will be punished by military law." ”

Totoro's hope was gone, and he couldn't help crying: "First Khan, the old minister can't assist the young master to revive the majesty of Chahar, and he has failed your trust." After crying, he knelt down in the direction of Qinghai where Lin Dan Khan died: "First Khan, the young master is about to return to gold, and Yuan is dead!" Since you can't recover your ancestral business, what face does Lao Chen have to live in the world, first Khan, Lao Chen went with you. After speaking, he took out his waist knife, grabbed the handle of the knife with both hands, stabbed it into the heart, and immediately fell to the ground and died.

Everyone in the tent was stunned, no one thought that Totoro would commit suicide, Ezhe sighed, waved his hand, and said, "Carry it down and find a place to bury it." ”

Looking at the corpse of Totoro that had been lifted out of the body, Dorgon admired it: such a slave who died faithfully to his master was also respected in Dajin

After Odos's departure, he summoned more than 40 of his own soldiers to his side and said to them: "I see that the Queen Mother and Ezhe insist on reducing the gold, and the last words of the first khan are still in their ears, and they dare to openly betray them. ”

All the pro-soldiers were cronies who had followed Odos for more than ten years, and when they heard this, they all said: "My lord, you say, what should we do?" ”

"The purpose of Jin Bing's coming is nothing more than to get the jade seal, and we must not let them succeed. After a while, I went to the big tent, you see my gestures, if I point to the tent, you will immediately rush in, and shout together: Jin Bing has kidnapped the Queen Mother and Ezhe, everyone come to the rescue. In the confusion, fifteen of you drove the young master away. "Odos said his idea.

A cronie asked: "Why don't you leave?" ”

Odos gritted his teeth and said: "If you don't leave, you will cover his head and carry him away." But remember, you can't hurt the young master. ”

"Yes, don't worry, sir." The soldiers replied.

Odos commanded again: "The rest of the people follow me, besiege and kill Dolgon, kill Dolgon, the golden soldiers will be chaotic, let's take advantage of the chaos to rush out of the encirclement, go straight to Mobei, as long as the jade seal is here, the young master is here, I Chahar will have a day to rise again, and then you will all be great contributors to the reorganization of mountains and rivers." ”

At this time, an ignorant asked: "What about the Queen Mother?" ”

When it came to this woman, Odos was angry and hated: "Regardless of her, the bad is bad for this woman." ”

After the preparations, Odos came to the queen mother's tent with two jars of wine, but when he saw Totoro commit suicide, he knew that he was late, and immediately shouted: "The golden soldiers have kidnapped the queen mother and Ezhe, everyone come to the rescue." ”

As soon as the soldiers saw Odos shouting, they clamored: "The Jin soldiers have kidnapped the queen mother, and the Jin soldiers have kidnapped the young master, come and save the driver!" ”

Some of the soldiers didn't know the truth, so they followed these soldiers and rushed into the big tent.

The people in the tent were stunned, what was going on? No one has kidnapped the Queen Mother and the Young Master. Ezhe shouted loudly: "Exit the queen mother, quit for me, no one has hijacked the queen mother, don't be fooled, don't mess up." ”

As if they hadn't heard, Odos and the others went straight to Dorgon. Dolgon was also startled, and quickly drew his knife in his hand. Several of his cronies around him, Goshha, also drew their swords to protect them.

Suddenly, the shouts of murder outside the tent swelled like a tide, shaking the whole of Tolitus, and Odos and the others stayed there, all looking outside the tent, and forgot to kill Dorgon for a while.

After a while, the shouting outside the tent stopped. Before Dolgon could react, he snapped, "What do you want to do?" Rebellion? Looking for death? Toritu has been surrounded, even a mosquito does not want to fly out, as long as the general gives an order, this place will be razed to the ground immediately, do you want to save the master, or do you want to harm the master? ”

Ezhe also hurriedly shouted: "Kneel, kneel for me." ”

The Jin soldiers and the authority of the young lord who were taken outside, and the soldiers who followed Odos fell to their knees one after another.

Odos knew that the general trend of the road was gone, and the old tears sat on the ground. Ezhe couldn't bear to hurt this old minister, and sighed and said to him: "Odos, you are an old minister, I won't kill you, you go, take what you want to bring, go far away, don't let me see you again." ”

Odos wiped his tears with his sleeve, stepped forward to hug Ezhe's thigh, and shouted, "Young master." ”

"You go!" Ezhe is already bent on returning to gold, and he doesn't want to make extraneous branches, so he just wants Odos to leave quickly.

Odos was helpless, so he could only stomp his feet and cry: "The old minister is gone, the queen mother, the young master, take care." After saying that, he turned around and went out of the account, and more than a dozen cronies in the account saw it, hesitated, and followed out of the account.

After the account was released, Odoros was worried that Dolgon would send someone to kill him, so he only took more than 300 of his own people and cronies to leave quickly, for the sake of Ezhe's face, and thought that an old slave was not a big deal, Dolgon did not send someone to intercept him, but asked Yue to give them some food.

The rebellion was quelled, the two old ministers died and left, and Su Tai had nothing to worry about, so he immediately asked Ezhe to offer the jade seal, make a book and go to Shengjing with Dolgon

After Odos ran dozens of kilometers with his clansmen and cronies in one go, everyone dismounted and breathed. His son Batu asked Odos where he was going, whether he would go to Khalkha in Mobei or Moxi, or Qinghai.

After thinking about it for a long time, Fang hated and gritted his teeth, and instructed Fang: "Let's go to Daming!" ”
