In addition to Duka, there were also two or three people who came to the side of the patriarch who was good friends with them, obviously not only Duka, but also several other people who were like Duka, who didn't know how to read at all.

As for the others, they all looked at Mato and Duka curiously one by one, obviously very curious about what was written in the letter sent by Balsborough.

Soon, only one of the tribal patriarchs was heard exclaiming: "What, His Highness actually wants us to surrender to the Ming army, how is this possible!" ”

The patriarch exclaimed, and the others in the big tent naturally understood at once what the contents of the letter were.

Everyone looked at Mato, Duka, and Songde in unison, and just looking at the expressions and reactions of a few people, it could be proved that the exclamation of the patriarch was not fake.

Some people were secretly relieved to hear that Balsborough had sent a message to them, making them surrender to the Ming army, and some people also showed a little resentment on their faces.

But those who breathe a sigh of relief obviously don't want to fight anymore, even if they can fight their way out of the encirclement at that time, I'm afraid they will have to pay a painful price, and the most important thing is that they don't dare to guarantee that they will not be among those who die at that time.

If it's just the death of his subordinates, as long as they can guarantee that they can escape safely, then that's fine, the key is that there is no guarantee that it will be their subordinates who will die at that time, in case they die in the process of charging into battle, isn't it very wrong?

Some of the young Zhuang faction among the Tatars are very radical and angry, they look down on the Ming from the bottom of their hearts, and it is naturally very difficult for them to surrender to the Ming.

These people have always been supporters of Balsborough, because Balsborough is very strong in dealing with the Ming Dynasty.

Even in the past, when the Tatars entered the army and plundered the Ming Dynasty, most of them were done by these radical young Zhuang factions.

thought that they would be able to create a miracle under the leadership of Balsborot, but what they didn't expect was that what they were waiting for was Balsborot's letter of persuasion.

Mato, as Balsborot's confidant, is naturally loyal to Balsborot, and now he took the letter, took a deep breath, and slowly handed the letter to Harzak and said, "Patriarch Harzak, you can also take a look." ”

No matter what, at the moment, Harzac is also the recognized leader elected by everyone, and Balsborough's recruitment of such a big thing naturally has to be clear to Harzak.

Harzak looked at the letter with a calm expression, and his eyes swept over the people with different expressions around him and said slowly: "Everyone, what Your Highness means is clear to everyone, now we might as well discuss whether to surrender the Ming army according to His Highness's orders!" ”

As soon as Harzak's words fell, he saw a red-faced man roaring: "If you want me to surrender to the Ming army, it's impossible, my immortal warriors can die in battle, but they will definitely not give in to others." Your Highness, this letter must be fake, fake......"

Hearing this, Duka couldn't help but step forward and shouted: "Shut up, no one is allowed to question Your Highness, I Duka can swear to Changshengtian, this letter is definitely from His Highness." ”

The red-faced man gritted his teeth and said: "It must be the Ming people who forced His Highness to write a letter and surrender to the Ming army, which is definitely not what His Highness meant." ”

Everyone couldn't help but hesitate, after all, no one dared to guarantee that this letter was not forced to be written by Balsborought.

If this is not what Balsborot meant, then wouldn't it be against Balsborot's intention to surrender the Ming army?

Mato couldn't help frowning, even he was a little skeptical that the letter had been forced to be written by Balsborought.

Harzak coughed lightly, his face showed a bit of solemnity, and he looked around at the crowd: "Everyone, as soon as the sky is bright, if we haven't made a decision, Daming will not give us time, and a bloody battle will be ......inevitable at that time."

Duka hesitated: "But if this letter is really written by His Highness, His Highness hopes that we can surrender to the Ming army, and then we may not have the opportunity to return to the grassland......

Soon the crowd was again in contention, and those who did not want to fight any longer, regardless of whether the letter had been written by Balsborot or not, but what they wanted was an excuse, now they were convinced that it was from Balsborot.

But the same is true of the opponents, who are not willing to surrender and naturally insist that Balsborough was forced.

In this way, the unity that had been achieved due to the pressure of survival was suddenly destroyed, and the Tatars were split into two parts, and even Harzak shook his head helplessly when he saw this.

If there was no way to surrender, everyone could have reached an agreement under the pressure of death, but now Baalsborot's letter of surrender gave some people hope, and it easily divided the Tatars internally.

In Harzac's view, whether the letter was true or not, the other party's goal was to achieve it, or at least divide them.

I heard Harzak roar: "Enough! ”

Everyone looked at Halzak and said, "Patriarch Halzak, what do you say we should do!" ”

Harzak looked in the direction of the Ming army camp that surrounded them in the distance, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said slowly: "I'll go see Your Highness!" ”

"What!"

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Halzak's words, obviously they didn't expect Halzak to make such a decision.

You must know that at this time, Balsborough fell into the hands of the Ming army, and if Harzac wants to see Balsborot, he must enter the camp of the Ming army, and if he doesn't do it, he will never return.

However, Mato's eyes lit up after hearing this, as an existence that was extremely loyal to Balsborough, Mato and his people naturally wanted to determine whether Balsborough was safe, and whether the letter was really from Balsborought.

If Balsborough was killed by the Ming army, then even if they fought for their lives, they would have to avenge Balsborot, if Balsborough was well, and the letter was also from Balsborot, then they would restrain their men and choose to surrender to the Ming army.

However, they had no way of determining what was going on at the moment, but when Harzac said that he was going to see Balsborot, the eyes of the Mato group naturally lit up.

I only heard Mato say: "Patriarch of Harzak, I can ask Duka to go with you to meet His Highness." ”

Harzak looked at the crowd and said slowly: "Everyone, it is a matter of life and death for tens of thousands of immortal warriors, and I, Harzak, must go to the camp of the Ming army. ”

Everyone fell silent, and in the end, no matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone finally came to an agreement, that is, to go to Balsborot first, and then determine what Balsborough meant.

A group of more than a dozen people, led by Harzak and Duka, after the Tatars identified themselves and their purpose, the news soon spread to the Ming army camp.

In the big tent, Chu Yi was practicing cross-legged, and suddenly he heard footsteps wandering outside the big tent.

exhaled a breath of turbidity, only to hear Chu Yi say: "Who is outside the tent?" ”

I could only hear Xu Tianzuo's voice ringing out: "Your Highness, there is news of the Tatars." ”

"Come in and talk!"

Xu Tianzuo walked into the big tent and saluted Chu Yi and said, "Chief Administrator, news has just come that the Tatars have sent people to meet Balsborot. ”

Hearing this, Chu Yi showed a little smile on the corner of his mouth, and said with a look of penetration: "It seems that these Tatars have come here this time because of the authenticity of those few points of surrender letter." ”

Saying that, Chu Yi said lightly: "Since they want to see Balsborot, let them go." ”

Xu Tianzuo nodded slightly, with a little hesitation, as if he had something to say.

Chu Yi glanced at Xu Tianzuo and chuckled, "If you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Xu Tianzuo arched his hand and said: "Boss, I'm afraid that Balsborough will suddenly change his mind, in case he ......."

Chu Yi couldn't help laughing, waved his hand slightly, and said: "Balsborough is a smart man, he knows what to do to be best for him, if he really wants to seek death, then Bendu will fulfill him." ”

While speaking, a cold light flashed in Chu Yi's eyes, Xu Tianzuo's body shook slightly, and he bowed to Chu Yi and said, "The last general understands." ”

Chu Yi looked at Xu Tianzuo and said, "Take those people to see Balsborot, you don't have to monitor them, whether you live or die, it's up to them to choose!" ”

After saying this, Chu Yi slowly closed his eyes, and Xu Tianzuo also withdrew from the big tent when he saw this.

After Balsborough made the choice to surrender before, the treatment was naturally improved a lot, and now there is an independent camp, of course, it is inevitable that dozens of brocade guards around him will be firmly guarded by Balsborough.

When Xu Tianzuo brought several Tatar high-ranking officials such as Harzak and Duka to the big tent where Balsborough was located, he could clearly see that Balsborough was sitting in the big tent and drinking.

"Your Highness!"

The moment they saw Balsborough, several generals who were loyal to Balsborough couldn't help but exclaim.

Balsborot suddenly raised his head, just in time to see Halzac, Duka and others, when he saw a few people, Balsborough couldn't help but startled, almost instinctively got up, his face was full of shock and exclaimed: "Harzac, Duka, why are you here!" ”

When he saw a few people, Balsborough was shocked.

Xu Tianzuo smiled slightly on the side, and said to Balsborot: "Prince Bals, these people want to see you, I was ordered to bring them here, if you have anything to say, you can say it yourself." ”

Saying that, Xu Tianzuo nodded slightly to the Jinyi guards around him and said, "The chief manager has an order, everyone is a few feet away, and you are not allowed to eavesdrop on Prince Bars's conversation." ”

Seeing that those brocade guards retreated in unison, they quickly withdrew a few zhang away, so that as long as the voice of the Balsborough and a few people was lowered, then the brocade guards who withdrew a few zhang away could not hear the conversation between Balsborough and them clearly.

Seeing Xu Tianzuo leaving, Harzak and Duka entered the big tent, Duka took a few steps forward, looked Balsborough up and down, and finally made sure that Balsborough was not harmed, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Highness is fine, if these Ming people dare to hurt Your Highness, they will fight for their lives, and the last general will definitely not stop." ”

Balsborough sighed slightly, and his gaze fell on Halzac's body.

Harzak is more than ten years older than Balsborot, and has been the patriarch of the Horqin tribe for decades, and he is definitely an old man, and he is a famous wise man on the grassland.

Inviting Harzac to sit down, Balsborough said with a wry smile: "This prince was careless for a while, and he fell into the hands of the enemy, resulting in no one to command the army, and countless warriors on the steppe died in battle, I am ashamed of my father Khan, and worthy of everyone's trust!" ”

Harzac sighed lightly: "Your Highness, don't blame yourself, no one would have expected that Chu Yi would be so shameless, and he would take advantage of His Highness's unpreparedness to personally take down His Highness." ”

After explaining the current situation in his own army to Balsborough, Harzac said with a wry smile: "Now everyone can't agree on it, once dawn and the Ming army launches an offensive, I'm afraid that most of my tens of thousands of steppe sons will die here." ”

Saying that, Harzac stared at Balsborough and said, "The letter of surrender sent by His Highness before, but is it from His Highness's heart?" ”

Stared at by Harzack, Balsborot's eyes showed a bit of bitterness, and he nodded slowly and said: "Yes, the surrender letter is indeed from my hand, the Ming Dynasty has nearly 200,000 people, even if our sons are brave, I am afraid that after a vicious battle, those who can break out of the encirclement will not be one in ten, in order to avoid senseless sacrifices, I hope you can choose to surrender." ”

In fact, when he saw Balsborot, Harzac could already guess whether the letter was written by Balsborot or not.

Hearing Balsborot say this at this time, a trace of disappointment flashed in Harzack's eyes, and then his heart completely fell, and he said slowly: "Since this is His Highness's decision, then I will wait for His Highness's order to surrender to the Ming army." ”

Originally, he was very guilty in his heart, thinking that Harzac would scold him, but Balsborough couldn't help but suddenly look up at Harzac and said, "Harzac, don't you even blame Prince Ben?" ”

Harzak shook his head slightly and said: "The decision made by His Highness is also for the consideration of the sons of my clan, if you don't surrender, there is only a dead end, if you choose to surrender as Your Highness said, you may not have the opportunity to return to the grassland in the future." ”

Seeing that Harzak agreed to his decision to surrender, Balsborough breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Harzak, and then saluted Harzak: "I hope that after you go back, Patriarch Korqin, you can convince everyone that this prince does not want any more steppe sons to die innocently." ”

Harzak nodded and said, "Your Highness, don't worry." ”

Not long after, Harzak and the others came out of the big tent, but Duka insisted on staying, according to Duka, he wanted to stay to protect Balsborought.

Xu Tianzuo stood in the distance, watching Harzac and the others come out of the big tent in Balsborot, and said with a slight smile: "Everyone, I will send you out of the camp." ”

Not long after, Harzak and the others returned to the Tatar camp.

Mato and the others have been waiting for the news of Halzak and the others, and when they saw the return of Halzak and his party, everyone immediately greeted them and looked at Halzak and the others with burning eyes.

I saw Mato step forward and say, "Harzak, have you seen Your Highness, is Your Highness okay?" ”

Harzak nodded slightly at Mato and the others, and then took out a wolf-headed jade pendant from his arms, for this jade pendant, everyone is naturally no stranger, because this is the token that Balsborough carried closely.

I only heard Harzak say: "Ladies and gentlemen, this time we went to the camp of the Ming army, we met His Highness, and His Highness is safe and sound. ”

A patriarch looked at Harzak and said, "Patriarch Horqin, just tell me, what does His Highness mean by him, whether we are fighting or surrendering." ”

Everyone looked at Halzak in unison.

Harzak sighed lightly, glanced at the crowd and said, "Your Highness doesn't want everyone to make any more senseless sacrifices, so Your Highness has already made a decision, let's come down!" ”

"Ah, it can't be, it's impossible ......"

"Fake, you must be falsely spreading the meaning of His Highness."

A cold light flashed in Harzak's eyes, and he drew his scimitar and slashed it, instantly slashing one of the questioning generals on the spot.

No one thought that Harzac would suddenly burst out and kill people, even if the killed general fell to the ground, his eyes were still wide open, full of disbelief.

"If you dare to question Your Highness's decision, you should be killed!"

Mato and the others reacted, stepped forward to protect Harzak, and at the same time said to several opponents: "Do you want to go against the decision of His Highness?" ”

Surrender is already the trend of the times, after all, it is human nature to live, I am afraid that even if Balsborough does not fall into the hands of the Ming army at this time, in this desperate situation, going against the general trend will be abandoned by everyone.

In fact, surrender is a foregone conclusion, and no good will come to anyone who goes against the general trend, not even Balsborot.

Those generals who are clamoring for absolutely no surrender, look at me, I look at you, and can't help but wail: "Immortal God, why is this happening!" ”

With a snort, several generals drew their swords one by one and killed themselves on the spot.

Everyone looked at the corpses of those generals and was silent for a while, until Harzak slowly spoke: "Everyone, everyone go back and spread the meaning of His Highness, and restrain their respective clansmen and subordinates, Your Highness doesn't want any chaos tomorrow." ”

A round of red sun gradually rose on the horizon, and on the vast earth, there was a piece of black oppression, and the two sides added up to no less than 200,000 troops, layer upon layer, with flags and banners, and the weather was clear.
