That's more than 30,000 horses, which is a huge fortune.

But in the end, Zhu Cijiong still resisted this temptation, shook his head and said, "Hey, you can't chew too much, the top priority is to make a forced landing on the Horqin people who are trapped in the wintering camp first." ”

"King Ding's wisdom." Wang Fuzhi also thinks deeply about this.

"If nothing else, Esen and the others from the Korqin Department must also be trapped in the camp."

"As long as Esenken surrenders, the entire Horqin Ten Banners and even their cattle, sheep and horses, aren't they all Ming's? Why should we be in a hurry? ”

As they spoke, the Korqin had completely retreated back into the camp.

The Ming army and the Korean army also completed the encirclement from eight directions.

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Zhu Cijiong said with a smile: "Let's go, go down and meet the Horqin people for a while." ”

Zhu Cijiong and his entourage went down the mountain and went straight to the wintering camp, but more than 2,000 cavalry still stood still, one was to be vigilant, beware of reinforcements from the Horqin people, and the other was to take care of the children.

Thousands of children in Korqin are behind the mountain beams.

……

At this time, in the royal tent of Esen, the Taijibel of the Ten Banners of the Korqin Department was already in a panic, and these Taijibel included Bumubutai's father Buhe and several sons.

Bu and Esen are actually cousins.

Bu and Daddy Manggus are brothers to Egos's Daddy Hungol.

There are also several other flags of Taijibel who are also related to the past.

The people of Horqin really got rid of it this time, and the high-level was almost served in one pot.

Of course, even if the high-level leaders are not punished, the Horqin tribe is already in trouble, because the strong men in the clan have been wiped out, what can the remaining women and children do?

At this time, these Mongolian nobles no longer have their usual domineering, nor do they want to resist, but the father, son and brother hugged each other and cried loudly, their ancestors should soon see this scene, it is estimated that they will be angry to come back to life and die, this group of sheep is not worthy of being the descendants of our golden family.

Among them, Yibu and father and son were the saddest.

We were originally relatives of the Qing Dynasty, why did we become prisoners?

Immortal God, open your eyes and take away those bright dogs outside.

Unfortunately, no amount of praying to the Immortal Heaven can change the outcome.

Soon, a Ming soldier entered the house proudly, and said loudly: "The Ming military department gave the king the husband in the matter, and came to Xiaoyuer and other Mongolian people by the order of His Royal Highness the king, before the coolness, put down the weapon and kneel on the ground to beg for surrender, you can spare the old and young women and children in the clan can also live, if you don't put down the weapon before the cool......"

Saying this, Wang Fuzhi's eyes coldly swept over the people in the tent.

"If you still refuse to put down your weapon before you are shuang, you will be killed on the spot!"

"The women and children of the various tribes of Horqin were also killed, and not a single one was left!"

Hearing this, Esen was frightened and ashamed, and said, "Come on, pull it out and cut it!" ”

"Huh!" When two attendants rushed forward and put the bright scimitar to Wang Fuzhi's neck, Wang Fuzhi was not moved at all, just looked at Esen coldly.

For just a moment, Essen sat on the carpet like a defeated rooster.

Now, what's the use of fighting for this breath? When more than 30,000 people broke through just now, they attacked more than 3,000 Ming troops, and they were all beaten by the Ming army and lost their armor, and now they are surrounded by more than 20,000 Ming troops and the Korean army in the camp, where can they escape? Continuing to resist can only lead to a dead end, after all, this is just a wintering camp, not a fortified city such as Shengjing.

What's more, even if it is a fortified city like Shengjing, they Horqin people may not be able to defend it.

That's it, Esen sighed, and said secretly: "Order, the whole army is disarmed." ”

"Lord Wang!" There were still several Taijibel who did not want to surrender and immediately shouted to stop them.

"I still have more than 20,000 warriors in the Horqin Division, and I can still fight with the Ming army, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer."

"Yes, Lord Wang, even if we die, we have to fight with the Ming army outside to defeat both sides, and fight for a way to survive for the women and children who stay in the old camps of each banner, otherwise the Ming dog will definitely find the door and destroy the entire Horqin!"

But these main battle factions were soon besieged by other surrendering factions.

"Nonsense, if we all die in battle, will the women and children in the old camp still have a way to live?"

"The women and children who remain in the old camp will become slaves of the Rakshasas sooner or later without the protection of men."

"At present, the only way to do this is to endure humiliation and save your life, after all, the people of the Ming Dynasty still talk about credibility, and the status of Duoyan Sanwei in the Ming Dynasty was not low, the Wuliangha people can, and we Horqin people can do the same."

Wang Fuzhi couldn't understand what they were talking about.

But Wang Fuzhi can still roughly judge from their expressions and tones, if nothing else, the Horqin Mongols should be about to surrender, and the surrender faction has already gained the upper hand.

……

In fact, the capitulation faction did gain the upper hand, and several Taijibel of the main battle were quickly tied up.

Esen also asked the attendants to tie himself up, and then followed Wang Fuzhi to the camp to meet Zhu Cijiong, and immediately knelt on the ground after seeing Zhu Cijiong and bowed three times and nine bows.

The three kneeling and nine bowing gifts were made by Huang Taiji.

Before the Ming Dynasty, there was no such thing as three kneeling and nine knocking.

After the ceremony, Esen presented his sword again.

Zhu Cijiong took the sword and said vigorously: "Esen, God has the virtue of a good life, and Lone doesn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, you can put down the sword and return to the Ming Dynasty, Lone is very pleased." ”

Actually, if you follow Zhu Cijiong's heart, he really wants to cut down all the people of Horqin.

In the previous decades, Jiannu entered the customs five times to rob people and goods, and the Horqin people, as Jiannu's hardcore allies, did a lot of evil in the Ming Dynasty, so Zhu Cijiong really wanted them to pay for their blood debts.

But Zhu Cijiong also kept in mind his father's teachings: racial strife is actually a struggle for the right to live, there is no right or wrong in essence, and the problem cannot be solved by killing alone, and the most desirable countermeasure is actually assimilation.

What is assimilation? It is to let other ethnic groups speak Chinese, read Chinese, and learn to write Chinese characters.

Another point, Zhu Cijiong also kept in mind that population is the most valuable resource of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Cijiong suppressed his desire to kill, and was willing to give the Horqin people a chance to live, which in turn could increase the population of the Ming Dynasty by tens of thousands.

Esen hurriedly said: "This all depends on the kindness of King Ding. ”

Zhu Cijiong waved his hand and said, "Esen, if Gu didn't guess wrong, the Ten Banners of your Horqin Department should be exhausted this time, right?" Then I am afraid that only women, children and the elderly will remain in the old camps of each banner. ”

"Yes." Esen said secretly, "King Ding's mercy, please give our Horqin people a way to live?" ”

"Lone is very willing to give you Horqin people a way to live." Zhu Cijiong nodded and said, "The problem is, you Horqin people also have to show enough sincerity. ”

"Please also point the king to a clear path."

Esen behaved as humble as possible, and when he was under the eaves, he couldn't help but bow his head.

"Pledge allegiance to the Ming Dynasty and become a vassal tribe of my Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Cijiong stared at Esen's eyes and said solemnly, "It's like Duoyan Sanwei in the early Ming Dynasty." ”

"Serve yourself." Emori was full of answers.

If you don't agree, you can't do it, and if you don't agree, the whole tribe will be in danger of being wiped out immediately.

So I can only come down first, and I will talk about it later.

Anyway, Esen had already thought about it, as long as the people of the Ming Dynasty were willing to leave their lives, there would be many chances to escape.

"King Esen, you have made the wisest decision today!" Zhu Cijiong naturally won't believe it easily, and naturally there will be follow-up arrangements, "You go back and tell the Taijibel of the banners, and let the rest of the banners send a few nobles to return to their old camps to move all the women, children and people here." ”

"This ......," Esen suddenly looked embarrassed.

The front banner of the left flank led by Esen himself has been completely destroyed.

Cattle, sheep, horses, camels, and even women and children were all captured.

But the other nine flags of cattle, sheep, women and children are still there.

Therefore, as long as these strong men can manage to escape back, the Horqin Department will soon recover its vitality, and it will still be a force to be reckoned with on the grassland.

But if all the cattle, sheep, women and children of all banners are moved here, there will be no way back for the Horqin Department, and from now on they can only be the loyal lackeys of the Ming Dynasty.

"What? You don't want to? ”

Zhu Cijiong's expression instantly cooled.

"Uh, no, of course we do."

Esen was startled and hurriedly said: "It's just that it's just cold, and there are wolves on the grassland, if there is no strong man to protect it, cattle, sheep, women and children will be in danger." ”

Esen fantasized about being able to take a few thousand strong men out.

"I've already thought about this." Zhu Cijiong's work is not leaky.

"Safety is really important, so the Lone Society sent the Ming army to protect women, children, cattle and sheep."

At this time, Esen didn't have anything to say, so he could only thank him unhappily: "Thank you King Ding." ”

Seeing Esen leave, Zhu Cijiong said to Xia Wanchun again: "Brother Duan, immediately send a flying horse to Dagukou to report the victory, and say that our Liaodong Army has destroyed the Horqin Mongols." ”

"Yes!" Xia Wanchun happily agreed.

……

The good news of Liaodong was soon delivered to Dagukou.

Because the messenger stepped on the ice linden faster than on horseback.

After reading the good news, Chongzhen couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Chongzhen immediately said to Xu Yingwei, Yan Yingyuan and other scholars: "I will tell you a good news, King Ding successfully forced down more than 30,000 horsemen of Horqin Mongolia in Liaodong by hanging sheep and beating drums. ”

"Forced landing of more than 30,000 riders? Wasn't the Horqin Mongols destroyed? ”

"Yes, there are more than 100,000 people in Horqin Mongolia in total, and there are more than 30,000 strong men in all, this time a guy was annihilated by King Dingwang and more than 30,000 horsemen, wouldn't there be only old and young women and children left?"

Xu Yingwei, Yan Yingyuan and other scholars all exclaimed in surprise after hearing this.

While being surprised, he couldn't help but admire Zhu Cijiong's ability to use soldiers.

"Holy Lord, King Ding's use of soldiers is quite the style of the Han Champion Hou."

"According to the minister, the champion Hou is not as far as the king of Ding, only the soldiers and immortals can compare."

The sedan chair was carried by everyone, and in this case, everyone was willing to praise Zhu Cijiong a few words.
