Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 198 Zhang Ruowang and Abney

Seeing that Zhu Cihong's attitude was very firm, Zhang Ruomang didn't give him any room to maneuver, so he had no choice but to accept Zhu Cihong's order, and quietly left the barracks with the seal and the team, and went to Hejian Mansion.

Fortunately, Hebei has also been emptied by years of war and the tyranny of the Qing Dynasty. There was no one in the streets and alleys of some towns for half a day. Zhang Ruowang was not found along the way.

As the Prince of Chahar, Abu Nai naturally has his own camp. Zhang Ruowang did not dare to show up in front of the Qing army. After all, his group came to meet Abu Nai in secret. What a miserable death.

So he has been waiting outside Abu Nai's camp, as soon as Abu Nai appears, he goes up to stop him, and declares his family name, Zhang Ruowang has no choice, he has no channel to contact Abu Nai, the only way to see him is through this There is a way.

But fortunately, Abnai likes hunting very much. This is his habit on the grassland. Mongolians ride and shoot and hunt, just like the Han people grow vegetables and flowers. It is an instinct deeply embedded in genes, no matter where they go. Won't let go.

It happened that a large piece of land in Hejian Mansion was abandoned, and as time went by, many wild animals, such as rabbits, wild boars, and pheasants, arose. Therefore, as long as there was no official business, Abnai would take his guards to hunt in the wild.

This gave Zhang Ruowang a chance. One time when Abnai was out hunting, he was stopped by Zhang Ruowang just as he was about to leave the gate of the camp.

"The Han people from there, watch me kill them with one blow." Before Abnai gave orders, a warrior accompanying Abnai was about to step forward to kill Zhang Ruowang and the others.

These people did not regard Zhang Ruowang and others as human beings, but as prey like wild boars and hares. In the minds of many Mongolians, they entered the pass this time to accompany the Qing Qing to hunt the Han people.

"Your Majesty, we are the envoys sent by the Ming Emperor. We have important matters to discuss with you." Zhang Ruowang hurriedly asked the interpreter beside him to translate his words to Abu Nai, lest the other party misunderstand and ruin his life easily.

Abu Nai never dreamed that Emperor Ming would find him so soon. Although his face was expressionless at the moment, he was not to mention how happy he was.

Although they, the ethnic groups outside the Great Wall, have always looked down on the Han people, thinking that the Han people are treacherous and often deceive them. In the past, the Ming army and frontier troops often burned, killed and looted them.

But the Han emperors were different. The northernmost sphere of influence of the Ming Dynasty could reach the Outer Xing'an Mountains, and even the barbarian Jurchens who were thousands of kilometers away knew the prestige of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The Chahar people who are close to Beijing and Tianjin are naturally more familiar with Daming, and they have always had a strange fondness for the nomadic peoples on the grasslands like Emperor Daming and Abu Nai.

During the Tumu Fort Incident, Ming Yingzong Zhu Qiyu was captured by Oala. Hundreds of thousands of troops were wiped out in one fell swoop. Zhu Qiyu was also made a prisoner. However, the Oala people treated Zhu Qiyu with great respect and courtesy. Compared with other Han emperors who were captured by ethnic groups outside the Great Wall. to say.

Some Vala princes and nobles would even visit Zhu Qiyu in his camp, and they would call him emperor when they talked, and Zhu Qiyu was even released in the end.

Compared with Song Huizong and Song Qinzong who were kidnapped by the Jin people and taken to Five Kingdoms City, this treatment was many times better. Perhaps it was because the Ming army only fought one defeat.

Maybe it was because Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di went deep into the grasslands and fought all the way to the sea of ​​fishing in the Northern Expedition, and almost killed the last emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, which left a deep impression on the Mongols, so they always treated the Ming emperor with great respect.

"Wait!" Abnai hurriedly told the guards around him to stop.

"Are you really a member of Emperor Ming?" Abnai still couldn't believe it.

"It's absolutely true, here is my seal, you can take a look." In order to show his identity, Zhang Ruowang took out his seal and showed it to Abney.

However, neither Abner nor the guards around him took it, because they knew that they could not understand these things and it would be useless to get them.

"I believe you, come back to the barracks with me." Since Zhang Ruowang took out the seal, Abnai felt that there was no fake, so he brought Zhang Ruowang and the others back to his camp with an order.

They couldn't stay outside for a long time. Although it was some distance away from Dorgon's military camp, it would be bad if someone reported to Dorgon. Abnay still wanted to hide his strength and save his strength.

Soon, back in the barracks, Borguo also came to see Zhang Ruowang, the envoy of the Ming Emperor.

"Your envoy has come from afar, please have a taste of our kumiss." Borgo carefully poured a glass of kumiss to Zhang Ruowang, trying his best to appear polite.

He was an old man who served Lin Danhan. Back then, the Ming court bribed Lin Danhan with silver to attack Miqing, so Borguo felt that the relationship between Mingting and himself was closer than that between Miqing and himself.

"Thank you." Zhang Ruowang took the kumiss. Although he was not used to the taste, he still drank it in one gulp to show respect.

"Why did the emperor send you here?" Before Abnai could speak, Borgo asked Zhang Ruowang on his own initiative.

But Abnai would not blame Borgo. In his heart, Borgo was like a loyal old horse, like his uncle, even closer than his uncle.

After all, there are not a few people who robbed their nephews, or even killed them, especially on the grasslands, but Borgo would not do such a thing.

"Your Majesty was very happy to hear that Abnai had entered the customs. I still remember that Lin Danhan and the first emperor fought against Huang Taiji together. Daming and Chahar can be said to be allies with a common enemy."

Although an alliance was never signed, in fact, the Ming Dynasty and Chahar Mongolia did have an ally-like relationship. They worked together to fight against the Qi Qing. Although Lin Dan Khan was defeated and died in the end, the Ming army did not come to the rescue. However, this Everything is explainable.

Sure enough, Abu Nai brought up the fact that the Ming army sat back and watched Lin Dan Khan be defeated and killed by Huang Taiji, so he asked Zhang Ruowang Xingshi, "But if the Ming army hadn't watched from the sidelines back then, how could my father Khan have died at the hands of a child like Huang Taiji?" hands."

Abu Nai is no longer a child. He not only knows the enmity between Huang Taiji and Chahar Mongolia, but also knows the evils that the Ming army has done, things that have been done for a long time. For example, the Ming army burned the grassland and destroyed Chahar Mongolia. Not to mention some of the small tribes.

Just what happened to Lin Danhan more than ten years ago made it impossible for everyone to forget. Although Lin Danhan's death was largely caused by himself, the actions of the Ming army at that time were indeed criticized.
