"Genghis Khan said that as long as Ögedei has a suckling offspring, he should be made a great khan." In the big tent, Haidu is telling his grandson the story of the past.

For the descendants of Ögedei, this was undoubtedly their pride and the reason why they considered themselves Mongol rulers. Genghis Khan repeatedly asked the Mongol chieftain to support Ogedei to succeed him. After the death of Genghis Khan, at the Kuritai Conference of the Great Khan, all the kings of the sect made an oath that "as long as he comes out of the descendants of Ogedai Hehan, even if it is a piece of meat, we will still accept him as Khan".

However, this oath did not last long, and Ögedei succeeded to the throne in 1229, and 22 years later, Möngke, a descendant of the House of Torre, succeeded to the throne in 1251. It was the oath that Genghis Khan asked the Mongols to make, but it lasted only 22 years.

Haidu told about the glory of the Wokotai family, but did not tell anything else. According to Mongolian tradition, the younger son inherits the family business, and the older brothers open up the business outside. Perhaps the Mongolian nobles betrayed their oath, but in the eyes of many Mongolian nobles, it was Genghis Khan who betrayed the oath first. The restoration of the Torre system may simply be a return to the Mongol tradition.

After listening to the story told by his grandfather, the little guy's eyes lit up, and he asked seriously: "Grandpa, I am a member of the Ogedai family, can I also be a great sweat in the future?" ”

"Of course!" To such an expectant answer, Haidu replied happily.

After educating his grandson, Haidu Khan walked out of the tent with a satisfied expression. When he appeared in front of the generals, there was no warmth on the face of this 46-year-old member of the Golden Family. Haidu asked coldly, "Where is the kid from the Torre family?" ”

"Great Khan, Hao Ren has reached the edge of our grassland." The person in charge of the investigation immediately replied.

Before raising the flag of rebellion against Kublai Khan, Haidu had already occupied a long grassland in the northern part of the Western Regions, which Hao Ren's western expedition was aimed at.

"Is it the tribe of the Vulliyang who leads the way?" The voice of Haidu Khan was full of malice.

Haidu's generals did not dare to say anything, and Hao Ren's army carried advanced muskets and artillery, which was something that the Ögedai Khanate had heard of. For more than 20 years, the Mongol tribes knew that Kublai Khan had learned this new weapon from the Song kingdom in the south. The upper echelons of the Ögedai Khanate possessed dozens of Mongol-made muskets, and it was also recognized that the muskets were very powerful.

Hao Renxi's expeditionary army from afar was able to ignore the rain and snow, and did not march in the wrong direction at all, which can only be considered as a traitor helping this boy from the Torre family.

"Destroy the Uliyang tribe." Haidu gave the order.

A leader next to him couldn't help but ask, "Did you send someone to ask first?" ”

"Shouldn't it have been the Wuli Yang Department who sent someone over early to inform us of the whereabouts of the Torre boy? How could it be that we asked the Wuli Yangbu! There was only a cold killing intent in Haidu's voice, "Destroy them, and the kid of the Torre family will not have a foundation to settle in this area." ”

Three days later, Haidu's subordinates led their troops to the location of the Wuliyang Army, but they were in vain. The camp of the Wu Liyan headquarters was empty. At the present time, the Wu Liyang headquarters should have gone south to spend the winter in the camp on the south side.

The generals of the Ogedai Khanate who led the troops were stunned, if it weren't for the support of the Wuli Yang Department, what would Hao Ren do

It is unlikely that Hao Ren's troops will march with the entire Uliyang tribe, and it seems that there should be other forces supporting Hao Ren. After the leader who came to report finished speaking, he heard Haidu Khan say viciously: "How can it not be the department of Wu Liyang. They must have sent guides. ”

"So what to do?" The leader asked nervously. If you want to deal with the leader of Hao Ren's army, you must first deal with Hao Ren's army. This has always been a great headache for Haidu Khan. Hao Ren had about 20,000 cavalry under his command, and the number of cavalry under Haidu was only 10,000. In Mongolia, 10,000 households are considered the largest unit of quantity because it is too difficult to have 10,000 households. It is even more difficult to have 10,000 cavalry.

"Don't worry. In two days' time, the Chagatai will join me, and we will be able to deal with the Torre boys!" Haidu squeezed words of joy and hatred out of his teeth.

Haidu fought alone with the children of the Torre family several times, and also contacted the Chagatai Khanate several times to attack the children of the Torre family, but they were all unable to win. The tribes to the south were attacked by the boy of the Torre family, and the herdsmen and various leaders faced the surprise attack, and one by one they surrendered before the golden family's big Xu. Previously, the Great Khan of the Chagatai Khanate had run far away, and the Ögedai Khanate, which was already relatively far north, was pursued and driven away by the Tore boys. Now seeing that winter was coming, the Great Khan of the Chagatai Khanate decided to support the Ögedai Khanate.

If the Torre kid survives this winter, the two khanates will face a powerful enemy who is more familiar with the terrain next spring, and now is the best time to deal with the Torre kid.

In the Mongol Khanate, the armies were fought by tribes with their own tribes, and the leaders were also led by the leaders of the tribes. Having received the order of the Great Khan of Haidu, everyone prepared. Some of the tribal leaders, who were related to each other by marriage, gathered privately to eat and drink.

After a few glasses of wine, some leaders couldn't help but defend the 'Wuli Yang Judgment Party': "The Wuli Yang Department is just a small tribe, how can it know so many roads. ”

There is a very clear division between Mongolian pastures, and in order to protect their own interests, each tribe is very afraid that other tribes will control the situation of their own pastures. If you are suddenly touched by another tribe, you will die. For those people from foreign tribes who passed by, the Mongolian tribes were basically driven away from afar. If the opponent is too close to the core of the tribe, they will be detained, turned into slaves, or simply killed.

And the Uliyang tribe was originally a small tribe, so small that no one noticed the Uliyang tribe at first and didn't send anyone here. When Hao Ren led the army to kill the Quartet, many people began to look for the inner ghosts, and the Wuliyang tribe emerged.

"It's definitely not the Wu Liyang tribe that led Hao Ren." Someone chimed in.

Some people were puzzled, "But how did Hao Ren Wanhu do it?" How could he not get lost! ”

As an outsider, Hao Ren was able to crisscross the Ögedai Khanate, and the Mongol leaders could only think of two explanations, the first is that all the tribes defected to Hao Ren. This was obviously impossible, and the tribes gathered here knew they hadn't done it.

Thinking of the second possibility, everyone's expressions became uneasy. In looking at each other, someone finally couldn't help but break this taboo, and said hesitantly: "Could it be that Hao Ren has been favored by the Immortal Heaven?" ”

At the mention of the Immortal Heaven, many leaders closed their eyes, or clenched their prayer beads, and said something in their mouths. People who believe in immortality believe that immortality gives people life, and if people's lives want to become strong, they naturally need to train. And if you want to surpass the strength of ordinary people, you need to be able to resonate with the Immortal Heaven. Those who are favored by the Immortal Heaven will be able to get more news through the resonance with the Immortal Heaven. Those shamans enter a higher state of mind through chanting sutras and various dances, thus gaining the possibility of communicating with the immortals.

The living Buddhas of Tibetan Buddhism quickly became popular in the grasslands because Rinpoche paid attention to rituals, made ritual instruments from living people, paid attention to the use of blood, and paid attention to various gestures, mudras, and dances.

Now that Hao Ren Wanhu has shown the ability to explain it with normal grassland principles, all everyone can think of is the reason for the favor of the Immortal Heaven.

No one spoke for a while. For the people of the grassland, immortality is their source, and immortality is their belief. If a person can resonate with the Immortal Heaven and be favored by the Immortal Heaven, this person should be the object of being followed by the various forces on the grassland. Even if this person is a former enemy.

Maybe the silence was too unacceptable, and finally someone couldn't help but speak, "If Hao Ren is really favored by the Immortal Heaven, there should be more signs." ”

"Hmmm! That's right! Someone immediately followed.

Regardless of whether Hao Ren was favored by the Immortal Heaven or not, everyone was unwilling to bow to their former enemies. If you bend your knees now, what you did before should be nothing. The most important thing is that if Hao Ren is the patron of the Immortal Heaven, he should naturally know the worries of the leaders of the various tribes. The leaders believed that the Immortal Heaven would not choose a tyrannical person to be his patron.

Everyone had something on their minds, and the party was hastily dispersed. The next morning, a large crowd rushed to the camp in Haidu. The leader is Haidu's cronies, who disguised themselves as deserters to lure Hao Ren into pursuing Haidu, and then lured Hao Ren into the trap laid by Haidu, and then these people disappeared like meat buns beating dogs.

Now they came back, each with wounds on their faces, and it seemed that they had been beaten badly. These people reported to Haidu, "Great Khan, Hao Ren told us to tell the Great Khan that if the Great Khan sends people to lure him into a trap again, he will definitely kill those people." ”

Although the leaders were also listening to the reports of these people, their attention was more focused on the people behind these Haidu cronies. These people were all prisoners of various units captured by Hao Ren during the battle, and they were released by Hao Ren this time.

Haidu first asked the various departments to come out to collect people, and then called his cronies to the inner tent, and began to ask if the gang had collected any information. These few people didn't dare to say something, and at this time, they immediately told what they had seen and heard like beans poured into a bamboo tube. One of the most important is how Hao Ren showed them how to see the sun through a beautifully decorated translucent gemstone on a cloudy day when there is no sun.

Listening to his subordinates describe the experience with fear, Haidu sat still, not saying a word.

Haidu was not the only one who received this news, but the other leaders also received the same news from their own tribesmen. On a large round metal table, with extremely intricate patterns and cut-outs, a gemstone is placed in the middle. Hao Ren Wanhu and his shamans can see the sun and moon behind the dark clouds through this gem, and thus determine the direction of progress.
