Due to its geographical location, Bato was once a major trading city in the central part of the Helian royal court, which ran from east to west and north to south. The jade-white buildings left here still retain the style of the Helian court twenty years ago, but the once elaborately carved and gold-inlaid jade decorations have long been looted by later Tartars.

The ornaments of the plunder were replaced by bones, horns and even stones of the Tartars, rough and extravagant, incompatible. The Tatars encroached not only on the land of the Helians, but also on their aesthetics.

Twenty years is not a long time, but it is enough for one generation to grow and one to forget.

The royal court has been very lively recently, and there is a joyful atmosphere everywhere. This comes from the fact that their great Heavenly Khan Ajimu planted the banner of the steppe at the foot of the capital of the Great Yin State for the first time, which is something that the Helian people have never done, this is the beginning of a new era, and it is the grassland is a symbol of the rise of the Tartars.

Not only that, but the grain, gold, silver, silk, and treasures obtained from the country of Dae-yin...... Let them really eat, touch the wealth, and feel what a good life is!

What is even more proud is that the Great Yin people lowered their arrogant heads and sent the princess to the royal court, married the so-called barbarians in their mouths, and multiplied for the barbarians. This kind of spiritual refreshment is more appealing than eating Da Yin's fine grains and drinking Da Yin's rice wine.

Ajimu's prestige is unprecedentedly high in the grassland, what kills his father to seize the throne, what exterminates the clan and seeks power, the real benefits are more effective than Lechuan water.

The Tartars were accustomed to living in tents, and most of the cities left by the Helian people had been deserted, and it can be said that the current royal court is the only city on the steppe. And its use is not so much for residence as a symbol of royal power, and the once glorious Helian people are now full of Tartar flags.

The palace of the Heavenly Khan was renovated, and with the money of the Great Yin people, it looked more like a camp tent, with a beige color, a round outline, and a conical spire.

On the highest spire of the palace stood a stone eagle with winged wings, the totem of the Agina tribe and the glory of the entire steppe.

Ajimu was in this palace to receive the chiefs of the tribes from the northern front, and unlike the joyful atmosphere of Bato, the five kneeling men at the bottom of the stairs looked sad and embarrassed. Ajimu listened patiently to their cries, but arranged for them to stay in the royal court first, and invited them to his upcoming wedding.

Tian Khan is about to marry Princess Da Yin, and it is indeed a bit inappropriate to let him send troops at this time. The five of them could not get an immediate reply from the Heavenly Khan, so they could only endure and stay first, and then come to ask for troops after the wedding.

Watching the five people leave the main hall in a dejected manner, a woman slowly walked out of the back room, her figure was graceful and slender, not at all like the body of a Tartar. Came to Ajimu's side, gently lifted the hem of his skirt and sat at his feet, crawling on his lap.

Jiao Didi said: "Tian Khan is really concerned about this marriage. ”

Ajimu reached out and pinched her tiny minibus to force her head up. The beauty's palm-sized little face is matched with a pair of big watery eyes, slightly reddened eyes, and a pink nose, which is really pitiful. If Jiang Li was here, she would definitely gasp, this woman was actually seven points similar to her.

"What's the matter, Chi'er, have you eaten it?" Ajimu kneaded Qianchi'er's red lips with his thumb, and his tone was a little teasing. He likes women to crawl at his feet, especially interracial women, which allows him to suck the smell of power.

Qianchi'er lowered his eyes, looked to the side, and sighed faintly: "I am just the maid sent by the Lord to the Heavenly Khan, and my status is low, how can I be qualified to eat it." As he spoke, he raised his eyes and looked at Ajimu: "The princess of the Great Yin Kingdom married to the royal court, it was a great joy, and I am happy for the Heavenly Khan." Before he could finish speaking, a hot tear slipped from his eyes, like stars out of the lake.

Ajimu pulled her up and hugged her on his lap, opened his mouth to bite her cheek, licked the hot tear, and tasted it in his mouth: "Chi'er, you really taste it, this tear is astringent." ”

Qianchier bit his lip and didn't make a sound, and his red lips were bitten white.

"Ben Khan did not send troops to the northern front, and the big wedding was just an excuse. Ben Khan saw that there was still less blood, how could he care about this blood! ”

Qianchier stretched out his arm to wrap his arms around Ajimu's neck: "But Na Helian Jue is so arrogant, knowing that Tian Khan is your wedding and still ran out to provoke, you let him go?" ”

Ajimu reached out and scratched Qianchi'er's nose, "Do you know Helian Jue? ”

Qianchier shrugged: "I just heard it in the back, these five tribal leaders have been crying and cursing him, and it's hard to remember. I just think that he is too ignorant, and he is so self-conscious to disturb the mood of Tian Khan, I should teach him a lesson. ”

Ajimuha laughed, "Chi'er, you have a heart for Ben Khan. ”

Qianchi'er wrapped his arms around Ajimu and tightened tightly, "That's natural, the slave family left their hometown alone on this grassland, Tian Khan, you are my only support, not to mention that Na Helian Jue led the troops to fight your tribe, even if he blew at you, the slave family was distressed." ”

Buha leaned against the long collapse, holding a book in his hand, on which were written the characters of the Great Yin Kingdom. Unlike ordinary Tatars, Bucha has a more urbane appearance, and if it weren't for the honey-like complexion that has been sunburned on the steppe for many years, he would look more like a Da Yin person.

His confidant Jili was helping him make tea, which was the tea he had brought back from Da Yin this time, and the Khan said that it was called Enshi Yulu, and it was a good tea. He once drank it, except for astringency, light and tasteless, how could it be as delicious as mare's milk tea on the grassland. But his own khan loves this mouthful, he likes the tea of the Great Yin Kingdom, the porcelain of the Great Yin Kingdom, the silk and poetry of the Great Yin Kingdom. Ji Li guessed that Khan probably liked Da Yin's woman too, but he didn't dare to ask about this. This trip to Da Yin also brought back a lot of Da Yin women, Ji Li wondered if he wanted to pick some to send to the Khan's tent, but he was a little unsure, these girls were thin and white, like a gust of wind blowing away, he was really not picky.

"Khan, the leaders of the five tribes have come to the northern front today, kneeling in the palace and begging the Khan to send troops." Jili carefully pinched the white porcelain teacup and continued the water, this cup is really small, a little force can be crushed, the kettle is unstable and overflowing, how can this small sip quench your thirst.

Buha took the teapot in Jili's hand, added a cup for himself, and took a sip: "Ajimu will not send troops to the northern front." ”

Ji Li was puzzled and said:

"Khan so sure? This Helian Jue came to steal chickens while the royal court was preparing for a big wedding, and he has eaten sixteen tribes now. Tian Khan's face was beaten by him, he is the most face-saving, how can he not move? Ajimu is not the kind of person who cares if he sees blood during a wedding. ”

Buha chewed the tea leaves in his mouth, this tea is not new, it is still too far away......

"There are few pastures and a small population on the northern front, which is tasteless for Ajimu. Moreover, if the territory is too wide and the front is too long, it will be difficult to control people's hearts. This time it was defeated, and after a few days, the soldiers were beaten back as soon as they left, and it was just a waste of money.

Although Ajimu gained prestige by attacking Dayin this time, he had not been on the throne for long, and the grassland had been scattered for almost twenty years, and it was not so easy to really close it. Many large tribes are superficially obedient but are actually still waiting, so Ajimu's center of gravity at this time will not be on the northern front. ”

Ji Li wiped the water stains that had just been accidentally spilled on the table with his fingers: "But if you don't fight back this time, the tribes on the northern front will be occupied by Helian Jue, and the tribes belonging to the royal court will be reduced, Ajimu doesn't care about this?" ”

"Dividing his troops to the northern front was only an extension of his royal power, but the tribes did not have the wealth to provide him with the strength to fight, but in the winter they needed to be sent in the name of benevolence and righteousness. Things that take effort and money are not suitable to do at this time. Fighting a war is not cost-effective if it does not bring profit. ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyelids and looked at Jili: "You should know the rules of the grassland, which is annexation." If Helian Jue takes the northern front, wouldn't it be better to have the ability to develop, when the northern front has wealth and manpower, concentrate forces to defeat Helian Jue, then what you get in your hands is not a loss-making deal. ”

Ji Li came back to his senses: "Then what do you mean, Tian Khan deliberately sent the northern front to Helian Jue?" Let him raise it, and wait for the harvest in the future? ”

"Well," Buha nodded, "It's Ajimu's plan." In the future, he will also be famous, and although he went to Dayin this time and gained a lot of property, the loss of people and horses is not small.

Even if he fights, he is reluctant to send his own tribe's soldiers, so it can only be Hengduohe to send troops, but Hengduohe will not understand that this deal is not cost-effective, he is already very dissatisfied with the distribution of the results of the battle in Dayin this time, and he will definitely find a way to refuse. Da Yin's and pro-army are coming, and the torn face is ugly at this juncture. ”

Jili was a little flustered: "Then if you want to fight, will you send us?" Even if it's not really fighting, sending us to mean it, on the one hand, it can be regarded as giving the patriarch who came to the royal court for help a face and winning people's hearts, and on the other hand, it is also a knock on Helian Jue? ”

Buha shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't fight." There are now more than 20,000 soldiers and horses left on my side, and there are 20,000 on Helian Jue's side. If I lose, the myth of the invincibility of the royal court will be shattered.

What is faith in the steppe, is strength, is victory after victory! Only continuous victories can stabilize Ajimu's rule and make the wait-and-see followers. He can't afford to lose now.

As for the meaning of sending troops, it is not up to the royal court to decide. Helian Jue was marching all the way on the northern front, and when he rushed out at this time, Helian Jue's people were all enthusiastic, and they wouldn't mean it.

Even if we lose our troops and win the battle, there is no loss for Helian Jue, it is a big deal to spit out the invading tribes, and he is fighting a battle that does not cost at all. ”

Jili nodded, "That's what the Da Yin people said, barefoot people are not afraid to wear shoes?" ”

Buha smiled, his eyebrows crooked: "Yes." ”

Ji Li slapped the coffee table, oh yo, this is a good thing that Da Yin came over, and quickly wiped it with a big slap, "Khan, then you say, did Helian Jue calculate these things accurately so he picked this time and picked the northern line?" ”

Buha took a deep breath: "I think, yes. Helian Jue should not be underestimated. ”

Ji Li frowned: "The Khan said that this person is not simple, so when he gets fat and wants to pick fruits, won't it be even more difficult?" ”

Buha blew the tea foam and nodded:

"Yes."

Looking at the ups and downs of the tea leaves in the cup, "If it were me, I would definitely gather troops this time to prevent future troubles!" ”

"Didn't Tian Khan think about this?" Jili was a little confused.

"I thought about it, but he didn't want to accept it. Man is always more receptive to ideas that are favorable to him, and to choose shortcuts rather than paths. ”

Jili looked at his khan, thought about it and asked: "Khan, you have thought it through, why don't you persuade Tian Khan?" Suddenly, his eyes froze and he lowered his head: "My subordinates understand." ”

Buha smiled and nodded: "Well, the steppe has the rules of the steppe. ”

The tea in his hand has been drunk, although it is only old tea, but he can also taste the rich one or two of Da Yin.

Ajimu is a good hand at war, and he is also very good at demagoguery. Conquering Dayin, stepping on the southern land, and becoming the master of this rich land is the dream that Ajimu gave to all the Tartars. The wanton looting of the border, the knocking on the door under the capital, and the marriage and marriage of the princess, this dream seems to be becoming clear step by step.

However, Ajimu is just a dream. All he could think of was the throne of the Tartars, the gold, silver, jewels, grain, grass and cloth that could enchant him, and he was nothing but a robber who had gone south! A reckless man on a rampage!

Those great cities have never been in the hands of my Tarano. Ajimu has not even conquered a single city, and the encroachment of land requires the accumulation of cities and ponds, the submission of the people, the integration of cultures, and the erosion of faith. These Ajimu never thought that even he didn't even want a city this time, but only gold and silver.

If Ajimu really has the ambition to go south, he has the strategy to hold the land. How could he have only cavalry, and only cavalry could not attack the city. If there is no city, there is no way to occupy it.

Buha couldn't help but laugh when he thought of this.

The Hengduo River is not as leisurely and leisurely as Buha, and it does not have the spirit of Ajimu. He sat cross-legged on a thin cashmere blanket, his hands in his sleeves, his eyes closed, his body swaying back and forth. At this time, it was already summer, but Hengduohe's heart was cool, his body was unbalanced, and his heart was even worse.

This time I went to Dayin, 100,000 Tatar troops, 40,000 from Ajimu's tribe, 30,000 from his Hengduohe tribe, 20,000 from Buha, plus some stragglers from other tribes. The 100,000 cavalry was commanded by Ajimu, who and Bukha stayed in Baatar to take care of the house.

But as a result, Ajimu put his people in charge of the Hengduo River after the break! directly lost 6,000 men and horses, which are all his elite soldiers of Hengduohe. Ajimu himself, hehe, but less than a thousand horses. Straight sissy thief!

The distribution of the spoils of war was first allocated half of which was said to be left in the royal court for future development. Isn't that half of the fuck going to be in the pocket of Ajimu, a straight thief! The remaining half, said to be to win over more tribes, and half was given to the stragglers. He Hengduo River produced 30% of the people, and in the end only got 10% of the harvest, this is to send the dog!

Calculate the account carefully, he lost money by sending troops this time! This is less than a percent of the residue, not enough to make up for the loss of his 6,000 men! Ajimu simply took advantage of this dispatch of troops to deliberately reduce his power, which is simply condemnable!
