Chapter 548: Killing the Khan, Will the Northern Yuan Be More Powerful?

Maham fell into deep thought when he heard his father's words, but it was only one thought.

After all, with his age and experience, he still can't figure out too many questions.

Like all young people, Mahamu felt that the corpse of a high-ranking person was inferior to his own in terms of ability and intelligence.

Therefore, I always hold a breath in my heart, a determination to do great things.

After hearing that Prime Minister Ugqi Hashha was frightened by the Ming Dynasty and wanted to move his family to the Golden Horde, he despised Ugqi Hashha even more.

Now he is reused by Ugqi Hashha, managing the men and horses of the two Vetla, which immediately arouses his ambition to make a big deal and prove his ability to the world.

Hao Haida wanted to see his son's fighting spirit, and he didn't bother to teach him anymore.

After all, who hasn't been younger?

When he was young, didn't he also look like Lao Tzu was the best in the world?

After receiving the letter from Ugqi Hashkha, Haohaida immediately packed his bags and set off for the nearest Chagatai Khanate.

Anyway, if Daming hits the Khan Court, it will be this autumn at the earliest, which is enough for him to lobby the other three countries.

As for lobbying, it doesn't matter, he directly relies on other countries to observe the festival of the Northern Yuan Dynasty for which he once served.

Haohaida's loyalty to the Northern Yuan has always been low, or the loyalty of the entire Northern Yuan elite to the Northern Yuan is very low.

This is based on the habit of the grassland culture, and the tribes on their grassland are that the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp. In addition, there is no complete historical inheritance, and there is no own writing, so its national character has not been strong.

Although Kublai Khan ordered Paspa to create the Mongolian language modeled on the Uighur script, unlike the Ming Dynasty, the Mongolian language was only used at the level of a few nobles, and ordinary herders did not have the opportunity to learn this script.

Therefore, Mongolian writing is not rooted in the folk at all, and it can be said that there is no writing at all.

After Hao Haida wanted to go out, the life of the Northern Yuan Dynasty became even more difficult.

Because they were preparing to meet the Ming Dynasty, they collected a large number of cattle, sheep, horses and other materials from the tribes and scattered herdsmen below. At the same time, they gathered troops and people to migrate to the Khan's court.

However, they soon discovered a problem, that is, a large number of low-level herders fled, and they fled in the direction of Daming.

Ugqi Hashha didn't pay attention to this at first, but his subordinates came back one after another to report that they had found a large number of herdsmen driving cattle and sheep to the desert, and he realized that something was wrong with the Northern Yuan.

But now that Hao Haida, the first wise man of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, has sent an envoy, he really can't find anyone to discuss, so he can only call the leaders of various tribes over to discuss together.

"You are all the people I trust the most, so let's talk about how we can stop the herdsmen from defecting?"

As soon as Ugqi Hashha's voice fell, a young and vigorous leader immediately spoke.

"Prime Minister, I think we should make an example!"

"If you find one, you will kill one, and if you find ten, you will kill ten until they dare not run!"

When the others heard this, they all thought it was good.

Ugqi Hashha glanced at the young leader from Uliangha, and couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.

He instinctively thought it was a bad idea, but he couldn't think of a better way, so he had no choice but to set his eyes on the other person.

"Mahamu, your father is the smartest person in our grassland, and now that he is an envoy on behalf of the Khan's court, then only your son can take his place."

"Tell me how to stop the herders from defecting?"

Hearing this, Mahamu got up and saluted respectfully towards Ugqi Hashha, and then spoke slowly.

"Returning to the Prime Minister, I think that in order to prevent the herdsmen from defecting, we should first find out why the herdsmen defected."

When the leader of the Uliangha heard this, he immediately sneered disdainfully.

"Needless to say, of course, the conditions given by Daming are better!"

Hearing this, Mahamu looked at the leader of Uliangha without showing weakness.

"Dare to ask this leader, why are the conditions given by Da Ming better?"

"Of course, Daming has money, food, and iron tools!"

"Those lowly herdsmen are all a group of cheap embryos who recognize their mothers when they have milk, just arrest them all and kill them, why do you care so much about them!"

Ugqi Hashha frowned unhappily when he heard this, if killing people could solve the problem, he would have sent someone to kill him a long time ago.

In fact, he had already sent people to kill a number of them, but instead of deterring them, more herdsmen had secretly defected. Even the people of their Khan's court have examples of defecting to the three western countries, how can he not have a headache?

"You shut up first, let Mahamu finish his words!"

When the leader of Uliangha heard this, he immediately shut up indignantly, and Mahamu said confidently when he saw this.

"The herdsmen defected not all because of the poverty of the Northern Yuan, nor because they coveted the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty."

"For our herdsmen, they are not afraid of living a hard life, they are afraid of living a hard life without hope."

As soon as Mahamu's words came out, the entire people in the big tent fell into thought, only the puppet Elberk Khan, who sat at the top, thought about his brother and daughter-in-law without distractions, and thought about what kind of tricks he could play at night.

Ugqi Hashha looked at Mahamu inquiringly.

"What do you mean by that, Mahamu?"

The leader of the Uliangha smiled.

"I don't understand this yet, people are saying that there is no hope of following you!"

Ugqi Hashha's eyes lit up when he heard this, and there was murder in his eyes when he looked at Mahamu.

If this kid really means this, even if he has the desire to reach Haohai, he can't leave this scourge behind!

When Mahamu heard this, he did not rush to explain, but asked Ugqi Hashha in turn.

"Dare to ask the Prime Minister, what is the purpose of collecting cattle and sheep from the herdsmen?"

"Of course, it is used as military rations to feed the soldiers."

"Then ask the Prime Minister again, who are our soldiers?"

"All of us prairie people are soldiers, and when it comes to war, even women and children can bend bows and shoot arrows!"

Maham laughed when he heard this.

"Isn't that right?"

"What's right?"

"Our herdsmen are soldiers, so why do we collect military rations from soldiers?"

Ugqi Hashha was shocked when he heard this, and felt that the ideas in his head were suddenly opened, and the pattern was upgraded to a higher level.

The others also nodded thoughtfully, feeling that what Mahamu said made some sense.

Seeing this, Mahamu struck while the iron was hot and revealed his thoughts and plates.

"We grassland people are all soldiers, we don't need to concentrate grain and grass at all, we just need to let the herdsmen prepare their own food and fight with the army!"

"And we don't need to gather everyone together, our biggest advantage in dealing with Daming is that the territory is vast and we can disperse our forces."

"If we take the initiative to concentrate our forces, wouldn't it be convenient for Da Ming to wipe us out in one fell swoop?"

When Mahamu said this, the people in the tent all looked at him in surprise, and secretly said that this son's wisdom was really good.

Ugqi Hashha also cast an appreciative look at Mahamu, feeling that the back waves of the Yangtze River pushed the front waves, and he was about to be shot dead on the beach.

"Mahamu, what should we do in your opinion?"

"Back to the prime minister, my subordinates think we should concentrate our elite forces"

"If the Ming army presses over, we will move and retreat into the grassland desert to hold on, if the Ming army retreats, we will look for opportunities to enter, and find opportunities to give the Ming army a fatal blow, such as cutting off their food routes, cutting off their supplies, so that they can't echo from the end."

"As for the ordinary herdsmen, they will be organized into several units, grazing on the grassland with a purpose, and try to go west, don't give the Ming a chance to fight and feed the war."

Ugqi Hashha nodded when he heard this.

"That's a way to do it, too!"

After Ugqi Hashha said this, he asked the opinions of the others, and when he saw that the others had nothing to say, he announced the adjournment of the meeting, and then left Mahamu alone to discuss specific strategies and tactics with him.

"Prime Minister, my subordinates really can't say any tactics now, we have to wait for the Ming Army to give us a chance."

"If the Ming army fights steadily and steadily, step by step, we have no other way but to retreat. Only when the Ming army makes mistakes can we have hope of victory. ”

Ugqi Hashha said quite melancholy when he heard this.

"Can the Ming army give me a chance?"

Maham thought for a long time, and then shook his head helplessly.

"I don't know ......"

"If the Ming army can fight the Khan Court in the summer, then we still have a few chances. If the Ming army can't defeat the Khan Court, we can only wait for death. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Daming is far away from our Weitra Road, and there are thousands of miles of desert in the middle, if the Ming army dares to arrive before the summer, the preparation will inevitably be insufficient, and the logistics supply will definitely not be guaranteed."

"As long as we drag it out until autumn, the Ming army will collapse without attacking!"

Ugqi Hashkha asked again.

"What does this mean, why does the Ming army collapse in the autumn?"

Maham was a little heartbroken when he heard this.

"Prime Minister, autumn on the prairie is coming, will winter be far away?"

"We can't bear the cold winter of Mobei, can those Ming people who grow in warm places withstand it?"

Ugqi Hashha laughed happily when he heard this.

"Well said!"

"Prime Minister Ben really didn't see the wrong person, you will not only be stronger than your father in the future, but even stronger than me!"

"After I die, all the four guards will be in charge of you!"

When Mahamu heard this, his disdain for Ugqi Hashha weakened a little. Although this person is incompetent, he still has the wisdom to recognize people!

After the meeting, Ugqi Hashha entrusted Mahamu with an important task, not only letting him select elite soldiers for training, but also transferring some of the rights of civil affairs to him, and he had the posture of using him as a successor to cultivate.

This immediately caused dissatisfaction within Warat, who felt that Ugqi Hashhan would rather trust outsiders than his own people.

However, they were all blocked back by Ugqi Hashiha, if there was no obstacle to Daming, he would never let Mahamu grow up, and he had to find a way to kill this person.

But now that the Ming army is attacking the Northern Yuan with a thunderous force, if he engages in internal power struggles, the fall of the Northern Yuan will be imminent.

Mahamu also worked very hard after being reused, not only canceling many harsh policies, but even making appropriate changes to the laws of the Northern Yuan.

Crimes such as insulting the Khan have weakened, and the privileges of the powerful are not as great as they used to be.

This will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among some powerful people, but he relies on the support of Ugqi Hashha and does not pay attention to others at all.

After his drastic reforms, the number of herdsmen fleeing suddenly decreased, and the spirit of the Northern Yuan soldiers also raised to a higher level, and they were no longer as afraid of the enemy as they were at the beginning.

Half a month later, good news came from the Chagatai Khanate, and they decided to send troops to help the Northern Yuan and fight against the monster of the Ming Dynasty together.

Chagatai not only sent a lot of soldiers to the Northern Yuan, but also sent a lot of materials that the Northern Yuan urgently needed with the army, such as pig iron, cowhide, silk, and the most scarce grain, salt and other things in the Northern Yuan.

Ugqi Hashha received the help of the Chagatai Khanate, and suddenly had the confidence to fight against the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time relied more on Mahamu.

When the Warat tribes saw the changes in the Northern Yuan Dynasty and Mahamu's ability, they also admired this young man.

There was only one person who was always dissatisfied with him, and that was Elbok Khan's wife, Hongguo Yuyi.

She was the daughter-in-law of the Elbek Khan brothers, and she was pregnant. Ever since Elbok Khan had listened to the rumors of Haohaida and killed her husband, she had lost not only her life to Elbok Khan, but also her unborn child.

Therefore, he was very resentful of Hao Haida's family, and he wanted to crush their bones to ashes.

After a drunken El Burk Khan, Hongguo Yanji used his flattery to slander him.

"Great Khan, now the four Vettras only know that there is a prime minister, but they don't know that there is a khan. After all, Ugqi Hashha has contributed a lot to the Northern Yuan, and if it weren't for his help, you wouldn't be the Great Khan. ”

"But Maham is only a little older, and his reputation in Witra has already overshadowed you."

"You can survive Ugqi Hashha, but you may not be able to survive Mahmuyo......"

Elberk Khan didn't have any brains, and when he heard this, he was on the spot.

"Humph!"

"What kind of thing is Mahamu, a little bastard of the Ross, Ben Khan can take his head with just one word!"

"Great Khan, if you are really so powerful, then kill one and show it to the concubine, so that the concubine can see the majesty of the Great Khan......"

"Good!"

"Come, call me that Mahamu, and I will question him face to face......

Since Mahamu took over the affairs of the army, he has been eating and sleeping with the soldiers in the barracks and training with them all day.

As a result, he quickly gained the favor of the soldiers, who were willing to accept his orders.

On this day, when he was criticizing his husband's poor food and establishing his image of loving soldiers like sons, more than a dozen guards of the royal tent ran into the barracks and took them away without saying a word.

Seeing this, Mahamu's heart immediately sank, he had long heard that Hongguo Yanji was dissatisfied with him, and now the khan ordered someone to arrest him, most likely because he listened to the slander of the cheap woman.

It's just that what should I do with it?

Tell the Prime Minister that it will definitely not work, although the Prime Minister is in charge of all the military and political power of Weitra, he will not act against the Great Khan in the open.

But if you go alone, this trip will definitely be more auspicious.

Maha couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, he tried his best to protect the Northern Yuan, but the Great Khan of the Northern Yuan only wanted to kill him, which made him feel great indignation.

Thinking of this, Mahamu suddenly had a bold idea, if he killed this brutal and ridiculous khan, would the Northern Yuan be even stronger?
