Chapter 688
The next morning, shortly after Gushi Khan got up, Oqiertu, the eldest son of his elder brother Baibagas, broke into his camp.Although I saw it with courtesy, I could clearly feel his dissatisfaction. I saw him asking: "Uncle Khan, I heard that you not only greeted the envoys of the Ming Dynasty in person yesterday, but also entertained them with the most honorable etiquette in Mongolia?"

Gushi Khan felt his dissatisfaction, but he was not angry, just smiled slightly: "What's wrong?"

After his elder brother Baibagas was killed, he was endorsed as Gushri Khan, that is to say, his Khan status was actually taken over from his elder brother.When he succeeded to the throne, he had said that after him, the Khan throne would be passed on to his elder brother's eldest son, that is, Oqiertu.

Now he is 48 years old, and Oziltu is also an adult. He was sent out to practice by him. He just came back in the morning and heard what happened yesterday.

When Oqiertu heard Gushi Khan's rhetorical question, he couldn't help but said angrily: "You are the honorable Gushi Khan, how can you lower your status and treat that mere envoy of the Ming Dynasty with courtesy? Last time, you can That's not how it is done!"

"At this time, at that time!" Gushi Khan said with a smile, "The Ming Dynasty, with its northwest army, suddenly wiped out the Tumote tribe and killed the Bushi rabbit, you should not Don't you know?"

"So what?" Oqiertu retorted a little unconvinced, "Nabu Shitu couldn't even beat Lin Danhan, and escaped like a dog that lost his family. With that little strength, my nephew can also kill him !"

Speaking of which, when he saw Gushi Khan opening his mouth to speak, he hurriedly said again: "Uncle Khan, my nephew remembers that you said that the Ming Dynasty has been established for nearly 300 years, and it is very old. Now it can't even keep Liaodong." , was beaten so hard by the Jianzhou Jurchen Department that they couldn't even fight back. With such strength, why should our Heshuo Special Department be afraid of them?"

When Gushi Khan heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head and said, "Oqiertu, you can't always look at people with old eyes. You have to learn to observe and grasp the details!"

Having said that, he paused, seeing that Oziertu seemed a little puzzled and unconvinced, he explained in detail: "I said that before, but it was true. Judging from the news we have heard in the past year, there are signs of a resurgence in the Ming Dynasty. The old ideas must keep pace with the times, and if you stand still, you will pay the price sooner or later!"

"Just because you killed the Bushi Rabbit?" Oqiertu asked a little unconvinced.

Gushi Khan heard this, shook his head and said: "Before the Bushitu was wiped out, the Ming Dynasty also wiped out Lin Danhan. If Lin Danhan was the only one, it can be said that there were coincidences and other reasons, but he continued to kill it with the power of thunder. Bushitu. This is not just a coincidence that can be explained, it can only show that the country is still very strong..."

Having said that, he saw that Oziertu was still unconvinced, and he sighed in his heart.My nephew has just grown up, so young and energetic, he really can't see the essence of the matter clearly.

Thinking of this, he looked at the sky and felt that there was still time, so he continued: "You must know that the Ming Kingdom is fighting on all sides. But even so, the Ming Kingdom can still mobilize troops to wipe out the Chahar tribe in succession. It is definitely not inferior to the Tumed department. There is one more key point..."

"What's the key?" Oziltu asked a little puzzled.

Gushi Khan's face turned a little serious and said: "If I were the leader of the Jurchens in Jianzhou, I would definitely not let the Ming Kingdom occupy the Hetao area. Otherwise, after the Ming Kingdom has a fertile Hetao, it will definitely have a strong impact on Liaodong. Pressure. But you see, it’s almost the end of the year, yet the Ming Kingdom can still mobilize troops to attack the Bushitu in the west. This shows that the Ming Kingdom must be sure of the Liaodong side. That is to say, the Liaodong The situation is likely to be dominated by the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, I believe that the Jianzhou Jurchens have only risen in such a short period of time, and their leaders will certainly not be mediocre, and they will not fail to think of this and not respond."

At first, Oqiertu was a little unconvinced, but after hearing it, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Gushi Khan's deduction made sense.With such a realization, he was a little surprised, thinking in his heart, how did the Ming Kingdom become so powerful?
While he was thinking, Gushi Khan was still saying: "The Ming Kingdom is far away from us, and the Western Regions are not where the Ming Kingdom focuses. That is to say, the Ming Kingdom is actively fighting against me. The possibility is very small. Unless our Heshuo special department takes the initiative to provoke the Ming country, then there may be a big war. If this is the case, why should our Heshuo special department provoke the Ming country and take the initiative to provoke a powerful A battle of confrontation? Needless to say, if we lose, even if we win, how much will our Heshuo special department lose, and can we get enough benefits?"

This series of questions made Oziertu a little overwhelmed. He had a faint feeling that what Gushi Khan was doing was deliberate.

"Now our Heshuo Special Department has enough troubles. It's not like you don't know about Tibet, Qinghai, Khalkha Mongolia, and even Tsarist Russia. The focus of our Heshuo Special Department is What, it's clear at a glance. Could it be that in this situation, we still want to take the initiative to provoke, and provoke the Ming country far in the east to become an enemy of our Heshuo Special Department?"

Gushi Khan's question made Oziertu unable to answer it.The matter has been explained so clearly, he is a normal person, as long as he is not hostile to the Ming country from the beginning, and has enmity with the Ming country, he will know what to do!

"The Han people have a word, I think it's very good!" Gushi Khan saw that Oqiertu was paying attention to him, and then smiled and said: "Long distance and close attack, I think this is what kind of relationship between the Heshuo Special Department and other forces. A principle of relationship. Making good friends with the powerful Ming country will help us deal with other matters with the Shuo Te Department. Moreover, the Ming Kingdom has expressed goodwill to us before and is willing to trade with us. In this case, we and the Shuo Te Department Why not follow the trend, one more friend is better than one more enemy, right?"

"Uncle Khan is right!" Oqiertu finally admitted Gushirhan's point of view and replied with a nod.

When Gushi Khan saw it, he was very pleased, so he stepped forward and patted Oziertu on the shoulder and said: "Then you stay by my side today and see how I handle the relationship with the powerful leader. After this matter is over , you represent me to go to Ufa, to get in touch with Tsarist Russia, and it is best to deal with the relationship with the Ming Dynasty in the same way as I handle the Ming Dynasty. Only in this way, our Heshuo special department can have the energy to do the other two things ,understand?"

"Okay!" Oqiertu nodded after listening. He was a little curious, wondering what kind of communication Gushi Khan would have with the envoy of the Ming Kingdom to achieve such a goal?
