Chapter 443: Grassland Killing
Erdan laughed dryly, he is still more sober than other nobles, the Han people do not need to use Galdan's iron hooves to grab the land outside the pass, really at that time, I am afraid it is also the time for the Junggar Department and the Ming Dynasty to face each other, but the promise made by the Han people is not completely useless, at least in the short term, the Dzungar Department can still come together with the Ming Dynasty, which he understands very well: "The envoy laughed, the tribe is short of food, and there is not enough forage, what is the unification of the outside of the pass is nonsense, even the sabre bow and arrow are very few, There were no artisans and only trade with the Kazakhs. ”
Zhang Tingjin had already put forward the conditions of the Ming Dynasty with a smile: "The sabers, bows and arrows are all from the Ming Dynasty, and they will be transported from Sichuan to **, and then transported by the Tibetans to your ministry?" In addition, some equipment can also be supported, but Khan Dan must raise troops as soon as possible. ”
Zhang Tingjin lowered his voice: "Now is the best time to raise troops, hundreds of thousands of Mongolian knights have entered the customs to the Manchu Tartars to guard the capital, Mo Nan and Mo Bei are very empty, as long as Khan Dan obeys the order, and the Mongolian kings are caught off guard, don't say Mo Nan or Mo Bei, as long as Khan Dan wants, I'm afraid Liaodong can also be in the bag." ”
Erdan is very satisfied with the bows and knives supported by the Han people, this is what is most lacking in the tribe, when Zhang Tingjin said the back, his heart couldn't help jumping, he knows the situation in Mongolia, and the army of the Mongolian kings and police stations also knows that the army enters the customs, this time should be the emptiest time in the south and north of the desert, Galdan has long wanted to the guy, but the Mongolian departments are easy to divide and break, and the Manchurians behind Mongolia are not easy to deal with, and once the Manchus unite the Mongolian kings, hundreds of thousands of Manchu and Mongolian iron horsemen swept over, It is useless for him to get even a woman on a horse. Over the past few days, Galdan has been enduring it, hoping to find a strong foreign aid and gradually cultivate his own power before he can do it.
"Envoy, what if the Manchurians interfere?" Galdan asked tentatively, he was very confident in his subjugation of the Mongol princes, who had long been weakened by the fine clothes and food, and the only thing he feared was the intervention of the Manchu emperor.
Zhang Tingjin sneered: "The Manchurians are still too busy to take care of themselves, where is there still room to take care of Mongolia, if Khan Dan doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate, if Zhang Mou has a lie, just deal with Khan Dan." ”
Zhang Tingjin said: "In fact, the Manchus have always been scruples about the Mongols, although the Mongols in the south and north of the desert swore an oath with the Manchus, when they entered the customs, did they let the Mongolian iron cavalry accompany them?" Why is that? Aren't you afraid that the Mongols will threaten the Manchurians after they enter the customs? But a few years ago, why did the Manchurians let the Mongolian iron horses enter the customs? Isn't it a last resort, in order to defend the city of Beijing? Now that I have recovered thousands of miles of fertile land south of the Yangtze River, the Qing army has suffered repeated setbacks, and the city of Beijing is still not guaranteed, where can I free up my hands to stand up for the Mongolian princes? ”
Regarding the affairs of Guannei, Erdan already had a preliminary understanding of Tashi Dorjee, and also knew that the Ming army had repeatedly triumphed and recovered a land larger than the Mongolian steppe. ”
For the Mongolian nobles, only war and plunder are the most pleasant things in the world, eating other people's food, drinking other people's wine, and using other people's women is the real nature, so they toast to Zhang Tingjin more diligently.
After three rounds of drinking, Erdan was already a little drunk: "Envoy, do you think when is the best time for us to enter the army?" ”
For Zhang Tingjin. Naturally, the sooner the better. The whole of Mongolia fell into civil war. Then the Manchurians will be plucked out of the ground and attacked. Wings removed. It's much easier: "The sooner the better." Taking advantage of the fact that the Mongol princes were not prepared. Quickly advance with cavalry. The longer the time drags on. Once the situation changes. Surely this opportunity was missed. ”
"Okay." Erdan threw the cowhide bag on the ground: "I will go out tomorrow." ”
Zhang Tingjin smiled. Hiccuped. Kaldan promised that he was just a joke. After all, it's a drunken conversation. What's more, there is no way in the world to say that if you go on a campaign, you will go out to conquer the land. He's almost drunk. A few more sips. watched a slave girl singing and dancing. He was taken back to the tent by two slave girls to rest.
Wait until you wake up the next day. There was the sound of a man on his back and a horse on the ground. A variety of voices converge. The two slave girls lay on their sides. Pressed against his chest and fell asleep soundly. Zhang Ting got off the couch. Pull back the parchment curtain of the tent with bare feet. I only saw countless people moving. Someone wiped the sword. Someone was holding the reins of a horse. Someone had thrown off his hooves on his horse.
Zhang Tingjin grabbed a person and asked, "What is this for?" ”
The Dzungar Mongols were stunned. Then he replied: "Khan Dan has an order." The tribes went to Jehringer to rendezvous. Prepare for the Crusade. ”
Zhang Tingjin was stunned, he didn't expect Erdan to have no mud and water at all, what he didn't know was that in fact, Galdan had been dreaming of planning this expedition these days, and now with the support of the Ming people, he analyzed it again
It is possible to interfere, where do you still think about delaying, and immediately order that the various tribes will gather to fight without food and grass, so the expedition is also extremely casual, as long as Khan Dan makes an order, the nobles below will each go back and summon their warriors to gather and ride on their horses.
"Envoy, Envoy ......" Huhat ran over in uniform: "Khan Dan is waiting for you in front, you immediately pack your things and go over." ”
Zhang Tingjin nodded, thinking that Erdan was afraid that he would deceive him, so he let him go out with the army, and there was no nonsense, the official robe on the ship put on a black gauze hat, and went to gather his entourage with a scepter.
"Huh? The envoy came. Erdan, who was riding on a horse and wearing sheng armor, looked majestic, but he was extremely polite to Zhang Tingjin, and when he saw Zhang Tingjin coming in from a distance, he turned over and got off the horse, and handed the reins to the riding slave: "Envoy, what do you think of the warriors of Bendandi?" ”
"They are all brave and good warriors, Khan Dan has such an elite, why worry about the great cause?" No matter how stupid Zhang Tingjin is, he knows how to pick up nice words to say.
"How about I ask Huhat to bring a team of warriors to protect the envoy, and the envoy will go with Bundan?" When Galdan said this, his eyes were fixed on Zhang Tingjin's face changing.
"Okay, thank you for being here, don't you ...... Thank you Great Khan. ”
Zhang Tingjin's face did not have a trace of flaw, Galdan smiled and patted Zhang Tingjin's shoulder: "Let's go, don't delay, the clansmen scattered all over the place are marching towards Jelinger, and we can't slow down." ”
Located on the border between Ching Hai and western Mongolia, with a lake nearby, Djelinger is the most abundant place for water and grass in the Dzunr region, and at this moment, countless yurts are scattered around the lake, warriors are riding healthy horses, women are raising the smoke of cooking, and everyone knows that war is coming.
For the Mongols, war is a common thing, so no one seems to be alarmed, in the Golden Horde, dozens of Dzungar nobles gathered together, discussing the war, now the biggest question is, who should be the first to open the knife, the nobles of each department expressed their opinions, their faces were full of energy, as if countless cattle, sheep and women in front of them were waiting for them in the distance.
In the end, it was Galdan who made a decision in public: "The Oziertu Khan of the Heshute Department often seizes our pastures and expels our herdsmen who cross the border, which is really hateful, so first defeat him and then go east." ”
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The Heshute Department is located in the eastern part of Xinjiang, and it is also the tribal will of the Moxi steppe, and the leader Ozirtu Khan is very close to Eastern Mongolia because he has married a family with the princes of Eastern Mongolia, and he thinks that he has the support of the kings of Eastern Mongolia and the Manchurians, and he is very arrogant in Moxi.
The night breeze was blowing, and the weather in Moxi was very hot during the day, but it was very cold at night, and many of the shepherds had gathered their flocks and gone to sleep, and at this time the earth suddenly trembled, and Ozirtu Khan, who was sleeping soundly with a woman in his tent, woke up from his dream, and he was very familiar with this sound, which can only be heard by many horses running.
"What's going on?" Ozirtu Khan had already jumped off the kang and drew his waist knife hanging by the tent.
"Kill." Before the entourage could reply, the shouts of killing had already been heard, and in the darkness, countless cavalry gathered into a torrent and quickly rushed towards the Yurt group of the Heshute Division.
"It's a Dzungar." Someone was yelling.
"Warriors, arise quickly, take up your swords and spears, and slay all these Dzungar robbers for the sake of your flock and your women.
”
It was too late, no matter how much the obese Ozirtu Khan shouted, it was already too late, and the ruthless cavalry had already rushed into the fence with their scimitars in high swings, and began to kill like wolves rushing into a sheepfold.
"Great Khan, what should I do?" The six gods and no masters, Ozirtu Khan, found that a group of guards had gathered around him, and it was obviously futile to rely on these people to duel with the fierce cavalry, so he stomped his feet: "Let's go, let's go to Eastern Mongolia, enter the pass and go to the royal city of the Great Khan, ask them for help, quickly, go and lead the horses." ”
The flames were everywhere, blood was splashing, the fragile yurt was trampled into the dirt under the horse's hooves, and there were cries everywhere, only to be cut off in an arc in the air by the cold scimitar.
The sneak attack continued until dawn, and standing on top of the ruins, the laughter of the high-spirited Galdan pierced the sky and began to distribute the fruits of victory like a conqueror.

I checked the map just now, and found that there are really many tribes in Mongolia, from Qinghai to Xinjiang, a large area, and the Dzungar Department should be more accurate in Qinghai and Xinjiang.
