The news that Yang Chengying led his troops into Transkhalkha blew like a winter wind throughout the Mongolian tribes.

It immediately caused an uproar on this prairie.

In particular, Tushetu Khan Gunbu was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

He had already heard about the refusal of Gushi Khan's offer of the "Nine White Tribute" to Yang Chengying.

Before Razunnawang Tenzin returned to the Oirat Ministry, he sent people to Transkhalkha to inform the three Khans.

Then, news was received from the left flank that the Liaodong Army had entered the territory of the left flank and was rapidly marching north.

At this moment, in the face of the overwhelming strength of the enemy, there is no doubt that Gunbu's mood is getting worse and worse.

He wanted to give himself two mouths - how did I grow this brain?

Since he has obediently surrendered to Yang Chengying's command, why are you messing around with Chechen Khan and Zasaktu Khan.

One of them is too weak, pulling his tiger skin and pulling the banner to scare other tribes; One is that the emperor is far away, and Yang Chengying can't hit it.

Non-nervous mixed in, what are you doing with it!

It's good now, people are the first to find him, and it's a big trouble.

Just as he was thinking, he came in and announced, "Great Khan, the messenger of the left wing has arrived."

"Call him in."

Gonbu had been walking up and down in the tent, but he immediately sat back down and put on the majesty of a great sweat.

A moment later, a lama walked in.

"Great Khan ......," the lama bowed.

Gonbu invited him to sit down: "The Guru has had a good time all the way."

Even if you don't believe in the Buddha in your heart, you can show friendship with the lama, and that's a must.

"Great Khan, this is sent by the poor monk of Daiqing Hun Taiji."

When the lama sat down, he took out a bag from his bosom and gave it to his companion.

The companion then handed the bag to Gonbu.

When the cloth was opened, it was not Sonomu's handwriting, but Yang Chengying's letter: .

"Inherit the emperor's order alone, and guard the northern frontier. The north finger of the flag, Teng Ji thinks of the hand; The people of the grassland, look forward to the wind. Recently, I heard that Tushetu Khan colluded with Chechen Khan and Zasaktu Khan to instigate the left wing of the Sunit Department to rebel against the Celestial Empire, and I heard that the Great Khan had colluded with the Rakshasa Kingdom, so I personally led a large army of 10,000 people to the north and the Great Khan to hunt in Kulen to fight against the Chechen Khan and deter the Rakshasa State.

This letter scared Gunbu enough.

After reading it, he pretended to be calm and asked, "Where is Dai Qing Hun Taiji now?"

"I am accompanying His Royal Highness King Zhou to the north." The lama replied.

Gunbu was unhappy: "Daiqing Hun Taiji and I are both descendants of Dayan Khan, how can we grovel to the Han people like a pug."

The lama replied without humility or arrogance: "Back to the Great Khan, as the saying goes, a good sheep does not fight with a jackal, Teng Jisi could not see through this, and he was beaten to the point of losing his armor and fleeing to Chechen Khan."

"Is the Liaodong Army really so powerful?"

"They don't mention horses or artillery, but the firearms in their hands can hit the enemy hundreds of paces away. And it's fast to reload, much better than our firearms."

"He said there were 10,000 soldiers, is it true or false?"

"Really. There were also 30,000 auxiliaries, who were responsible for everything except combat. But they are not weak, and after this battle they can go back and be promoted to war."

"You go down and rest first."

Gonbu sighed and beckoned his companion to send the lama down.

After the lama left, Jinong, Noyan, Taiji, and Zaisang under the command of Gonbu entered the sweat tent.

They sat cross-legged on the thick carpet and watched the sweat in silence.

"Yang Chengying is here."

Gunbu pretended to be calm and said, "We are marching quickly towards Kulun, and the Daiqing Hun Taiji on the left flank seems to have been persuaded by him to follow him north."

There was an uproar in the tent.

One of Noyan stood up and said, "We can't wait for the enemy to come to the door, we should give orders to the tribes to hurry up

Quickly join the war, and then ask Zasaktu Khan and Chechen Khan for help."

"I'm afraid it's too late." Another Noyan said, "It is only a little more than a thousand miles from the left flank to Kulen, and the enemy will be there in ten days."

A Noyan in a mink hat stood up and advised, "The enemy is menacing, either surrender for the time being, and talk about it later."

Noyan and Taiji began to talk to each other, nodding their heads frequently in approval.

Gunbu's face became more and more ugly, they were all descendants of Genghis Khan, why didn't they inherit Genghis Khan's qualities. The enemy all came to the door, and they thought about kneeling down and surrendering.

But he didn't have a seizure, he just said, "The matter of my association with Zasaktu Khan and Chechen Khan has been known to him. It's not easy to surrender without paying the price."

"Great Khan, the people of the Central Plains are very hypocritical, as long as you surrender and respectfully offer Hada, most of them will be spared."

One of Noyan said, "It's better to surrender."

Gonbu was silent.

At this time, the companion came to the tent to report that the envoy of the Chechen Khan had arrived.

"Please." Gunbu's face was overjoyed.

But seeing the envoy of the Chechen Khan coming in in in a hurry, after giving a salute, he said:

"Venerable Tushetu Khan, Chechen Khan, please for the sake of the descendants of Dayan Khan, quickly send troops to support. The Liaodong Army has passed through the left flank of Sunit and attacked the left flank of the Khan."

As he spoke, the messenger took out the letter from his garment and respectfully handed it to the companion of the Gunbu.

Gon Bu opened it and looked at it, frowned, "This is nonsense, Yang Chengying is obviously on the way to Kulun."

"Yang Chengying? His Royal Highness the King of Zhou!" The envoy was also confused, "The commander in command of the Liaodong Army is called Kong Youde, the general of the Liaodong Army. They led their army through the left flank of Sunit and into Darigangai."

"What?" Only then did Gunbu suddenly realize, "Could it be that Yang Chengying's soldiers are divided into two ways, one is targeting me, and the other is targeting Chechen Khan."

The messenger was not stupid, and understood at once.

This Tushetu Khan is also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river - it is difficult to protect himself.

Gonbu sat down and muttered, "I didn't expect this winter to come earlier than usual, and it makes people so scared."

There were many discussions among the lords in the tent, some of them were fighting, some were surrendering, and some were advocating running away.

Gonbu lost his temper, turned and left the tent, and returned to the tent where he was resting.

There was already a fire in the tent, and it was warm.

Gonbu's mother, Egellan, sat in front of the brazier, her eyes closed.

The wife patiently did needlework by the light of the fire.

Transkhalkha Mongolia has always been poor, extremely scarce in materials, and even made its own clothes.

Hearing his son's footsteps, Egelan opened his eyes.

She smiled and said, "Why is the Great Khan so unhappy, is it because he is worried that the Immortal Heaven will not bless us and a heavy snow will fall?"

"Worse than snow." Gunbu said in frustration.

The wife looked up at Gonbu.

Gonbu sat down cross-legged across from his wife, took a sip of the mare's milk wine that his wife had poured over, and said:

"The enemy is coming! A terrifying enemy we have never seen before is coming towards us!"
