New Shun 1730

He walked into the big tent, and on both sides were the nobles of the Junggar tribe, wearing armor, as if facing a great enemy.

Some people kicked Liu Yu viciously, while others thought of the battle at the northern foot of the Altai Mountains and dared not look directly at Liu Yu.

There was a man sitting in the big tent, about thirty or forty years old, fat and plump, looking a bit like Daze Lingdun Duobu, after all, they were uncles and nephews within the fifth degree of mourning.

That should be Galdan Tseren, who was less than forty years old and had a strong body.

As for things like being intimidating without anger, it was fine for others to see it. In the eyes of people like Liu Yu who grew up in the circle of nobles in the capital, it was just that.

No matter how majestic it was, the title of the Great Emperor of the Celestial Empire was still the most important one in the world. Liu Yu had seen it many times, so he naturally didn't care.

Galdan Tseren also secretly looked at this young man who forced the Junggar tribe to the point of extinction, thinking about what he was doing when he was twenty-four or twenty-five years old, and secretly praised Liu Yu's courage.

Although he had no intention of detaining Liu Yu, Galdan Tseren was surprised that Liu Yu dared to come.

The servants served milk tea, and Galdan Tseren asked questions first.

"Zungar is a small country, and it has never had the intention to go to war with a big country. The Khalkha tribe is also Mongolia. The Celestial Empire is located in the Central Plains, and there are barbarians everywhere. As the saying goes, a king does not rule over barbarians. I really don't know why a big country wants to attack us."

"A king does not rule over barbarians, and those who come are not rejected, and those who are far away are not pursued. The four barbarians only need to pay tribute, and the Celestial Empire should not intervene in the disputes of the barbarians. Isn't this the Celestial Empire?"

When Liu Yu heard this, he thought that Galdan Tseren's cultural level was not low. He knew that a king does not rule over barbarians?

He did not want to argue about such things, and only said: "That was the world view of the Song Dynasty. The Song emperor could not defeat the Jin people and Mongolia in the north, the Western Xia in the west, and the Dali in the south, so naturally he said that the king should not rule the barbarians. It is not that he does not rule, but that he cannot. He cannot pretend that he does not rule, which is really a rotten way of covering his ears and stealing the bell."

"Now the Heavenly Dynasty is sending troops, not to attack you, but to save you."

When the nobles heard Liu Yu say that the Heavenly Dynasty was coming to save them, they were furious and shouted: "Although Junggar is a small country, it also has tens of thousands of warriors. Yarkand surrendered, Kazakhs were terrified, and even the Russians had to retreat from Lake Yamesh. If you don't come to attack, what can you save? Who can threaten us?"

Liu Yu snorted He snorted and asked, "Even Genghis Khan's empire no longer exists. Why do you think the Junggar tribe can last forever?"

"You can force the Russians in the north to retreat, but can you capture their capital? Are the Torghuts much worse than you? How are they doing with the Russians? When the Russians go to war in Europe, have the Torghuts not sent soldiers to follow them?"

"If you don't return to the Celestial Empire, when the Russians become stronger in the future, can you still stop them? You can stop them now, but what about in the future?"

"If you submit to the Celestial Empire, you can still believe in your own Yellow Sect and own your own pasture. What will happen if you are conquered by the Russians?"

"The Yarkand Khanate south of the Tianshan Mountains will temporarily submit to you, but won't they rebel in the future? If they rebel, will you still have a chance to survive?"

"Even if I don't tell you these things, you should know them. Besides, you have no choice but to submit to what happened today. Even if you beat me at Sayram Lake, the Celestial Empire has more people and a hundred or a thousand times more wealth than you. With an army like that in my hands, I can quickly form another 100,000 people."

"Even if you are replaced one by one, do you still have a chance to survive? If you can win, you can choose to pay tribute. But since you can't win, what's the point of saying all that?"

He stood up, looked at the nobles of the Junggar tribe around him, and asked, "Who of you thinks you have the ability to win this battle?" "You can talk to your Khan about the war."

"Speaking of it, this matter is also simple. You only need to defeat the Qingzhou army at Sayram Lake. We have penetrated so far and have nowhere to escape. Once we are defeated, we will be completely destroyed. Then you can quickly attack Luntai and defeat the Western Army."

"Didn't your ancestor Choros Yesen conquer Tumubao? If you have the ability, you can conquer Luntai, Hami, and then fight through Xingxing Gorge, right?"

"Come on, come on, who has the ability, stand up and talk now? Your Khan must be happy to hand over the army to you. Why don't you say anything?"

A group of leaders and nobles all lowered their heads, and they were so angry that their teeth itched, but no one dared to stand up.

You can't win, you can't win.

The battle at the northern foot of the Altai Mountains has broken the spines of many people.

It was not as simple as a big defeat, but it completely overturned the world they knew.

The infantry formation easily resisted the cavalry... This battle can no longer be fought. There had never been such a situation before. This was not just a failure, but a blow that completely made them lose their confidence.

It was like knowing that the sun was hot, but as long as you hid in a cave, you couldn't see the sun.

But suddenly one day, you found that the sunlight could actually pass through the cave... This was the feeling that many nobles had after the battle at the northern foot of the Altai Mountains.

Both the big and small Tsering Dunduobu were defeated. Who dared to say that they were better than them? Who didn't know the methods of the big Tsering Dunduobu? Who didn't accept it?

But even if he was as good at planning as him, he was defeated by the young Han man in front of him. What was there to fight for?

Seeing that Liu Yu had calmed down these proud subordinates with just a few words, Galdan Tsering sighed.

"General Liu, since we invited you here, we really want to talk. We don't want to join the Rakshasa people..."

The words were immediately interrupted by Liu Yu.

"This is not a matter of whether you want to take refuge, but a matter of asking the Rakshasa people whether they dare to take you in. The Rakshasa people are at war with the French, and will soon go to war with Turkey. They will fight for you for your sake. Is China going to war?"

"The special envoy of the Rakshasa Kingdom is in the army. Do you want me to send someone to invite him? If I don't listen, let you talk in secret?"

Galdan Celing interrupted the conversation very rudely, but he was helpless. Facing the aggressive Liu Yu, with his added strength, even if he had no righteousness, he could not look directly at him.

"The life of the Turgut people is not easy. But what about the Khalkha tribe? What about the Mongolian tribes in Monan? They still have their own pastures, and the Celestial Empire does not need their soldiers to fight in all directions, and there are rewards every year."

"If you continue to resist, there is no chance of winning. Your Majesty is merciful, but you will not tolerate it again. Don't the Khalkha people like the pastures of the Altai Mountains? Don't the Kazakhs like the grasslands of Ili? The Yarkand people don't like the pastures of the Tianshan Mountains and beyond. The oasis in the south? If you continue to resist, it’s not that the Celestial Empire wants to exterminate you, but these people will hope that you will be exterminated.”

"I hope you will consider this carefully."

Galdan Celing was very dissatisfied with Liu Yu's aggressive attitude, and he would exterminate his clan at every turn.

His temper finally rose, and he shouted: "Exterminate the entire clan! Exterminate the entire clan! I want to hear why you want me to annihilate the entire clan!"

"If you fail, you can come again. If you can't beat it, you can escape first."

Liu Yu snorted, stared at Galdan Celing and said, "You ask me how to exterminate the clan? Isn't this simple?"

"Yes, the army of the Celestial Empire cannot always be stationed here, nor can it always go to places where they can only nomadic herd and not cultivate. But, I want to ask, where are you going to retreat?"

"The Kazakhs have been oppressed by you, and now they must hope that you will all die. If you die, your tribe's cattle and sheep will belong to them. Are they willing to let you exterminate your tribe?"

"Go north, if the Rakshasa capture you, they will send you to us. Besides, can your tribe capture the Rakshasa bastions on the Irtysh River?"

"Whether the Yarkand people have truly surrendered to you or not, you should know in your own hearts. If you let the remaining tribesmen stay south of the Tianshan Mountains, I don't need to tell you what will happen, right?"

Liu Yu stretched out his hand, pointed towards the east and said: "If you really continue to resist, the Khalkha tribe will follow the army to the north of the Altai Mountains, and all the pastures north of the Altai Mountains will belong to them."

"All areas south of the Tianshan Mountains belong to the old Yarkand tribe and are allowed to be governed by the Black Mountain and White Mountain factions, as long as the leaders surrender."

"Thousands of troops are stationed in Ili, bastions are built, and people are moved there every year for cultivation."

"The pastures around the Tianshan Mountains and south of the Altai Mountains are allocated to Monan Mongolia. Their population has continued to grow over the years, and the pastures are not enough."

"Of course the army of the Celestial Empire cannot stay here for long, but the Kazakhs, Yarkands, Khalkhas, and Monan Mongols are happy to occupy your pastures and kill everyone with the blood of the Choros family. Even If you want to surrender, you have no chance. If you die, the cattle and sheep pastures of the tribe will be theirs; if you surrender, you will have to take away some pastures."

"Is it really difficult to exterminate a clan? I don't think so."

Several leaders and nobles threw the wine bowls in their hands to the ground and cursed: "Why are you so vicious?"

Just thinking about it for a moment will make you realize how cruel this method is.

The biggest enemy of the grassland tribes is not the Celestial Empire, but the other tribes on the grassland.

The army of the Celestial Empire cannot fight all the time, nor can it be stationed forever in pastoral areas that cannot be cultivated, but the other tribes can.

At that time, all the men will be put to death, the women will be kidnapped to give birth to their children, and the cattle and sheep will be taken away. There will really be no one left in the army.

Faced with the vicious accusation, Liu Yu didn't take it seriously, pushed away the wine bowl beside him and said: "I have said everything that needs to be said. Now we are enemies, and I am not a guest. If you surrender, we will be officials in the same court in the future. , of course I want to drink and eat meat with you. But now, I have to leave."

"I only give you two days. After two days, I hope to see you in my camp. If not, I will march to Ili. If you have the ability, defeat me on the battlefield."

"If you don't go to my camp in two days, and you can't defeat me on the battlefield, then I can tell you that the annihilation of our tribe is a foregone conclusion. There will not be a single male left in the Troos family."

“Cut the weeds and remove the roots.”

After that, he walked straight to the door of the tent and knocked away the guard at the door.

The nobles looked at Galdan Celing together, not knowing how to face such a situation. To catch him? Detain him? Or let him leave?

Galdan Celing was silent for a long time, sighed, drank a large bowl of wine to himself, and threw the bowl to the ground, feeling helpless and furious.

The soldiers of the quasi-unit did not stop him. Liu Yu jumped on his horse and turned around and shouted: "Two days! Just two days. I have prepared wine and meat in the camp. If you can't wait, we will meet on the battlefield. My patience It’s gone and I don’t want to delay it any longer.”

After saying that, he rode his horse and knocked away the quasi-department soldiers in front of him. Under the protection of the two hundred people, he left the quasi-department camp in a graceful manner.

After leaving the camp, the guards looked back and saw that no one was chasing them out of the camp, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Excellency is brave."

“Hahahaha…”

While laughing, Liu Yu twisted his wet body, thinking about the sound of Galdan Tsereng smashing the wine bowl just now, and thought to himself, damn it, I thought you were smashing the cup as a signal.
