- "A few days ago, there was some news about the Alxa Division in the imperial newspaper, but I don't know if it is really related."
After thinking for a while, Sun Chuanting turned back and said to Zhao Hongyu.
"It doesn't matter, tell me, maybe it's really like this." Zhao Hongyu waved his hand indifferently and asked Sun Chuanting to tell him about the news in the newspaper.
In fact, Zhao Hongyu himself had some guesses as to why Alxa Division and the others came here.
After all, Jincheng is becoming more and more prosperous, attracting many Mongolian tribes from the grasslands.
Those Mongolian caravans from the grasslands brought not only a large amount of wealth to Jincheng, but also some intelligence information between various tribes in the grasslands.
You must know that the imperial intelligence officers under Zhao Hongyu are not vegetarians.
If you can¡¯t even find out about this, you¡¯re really a waste.
The Alxa tribe, a Mongolian tribe, is located in the area from Tongliao to Baichengzi and Xing'an. The tribe has a population of about 150,000, making it a medium-sized tribe.
Moreover, geographically it is close to Houjin.
Therefore, it is not surprising that when Hou Jin rose, they would become the first batch of Mongolian tribes to seek refuge with Hou Jin.
Because the distance is very close, if they don¡¯t choose Houjin, they will be completely defeated and annexed by Houjin. Compared with such a situation, it is more reliable to choose to become a Mongolian vassal of Hou Jin, that is, an 'ally'.
"However, what they claim to be 'allies' is actually not the same thing at all. The real fact is that it was the Mongolian tribes that were conquered by Hou Jin. They were completely defeated and had no choice but to take refuge in Hou Jin.
Moreover, Hou Jin has indeed demonstrated his strong military power to the outside world over the years. Therefore, more and more Mongolian tribes like the Alashan tribe began to take refuge with the Later Jin Kingdom and became vassals.
but. Although these Mongolian tribes took refuge in Houjin, or were beaten and had to take refuge in Houjin. Eventually, it became an integral part of Hou Jin's military power.
However, Hou Jin treated them in a manipulative and defensive manner, which made these Mongolian tribes very helpless and resentful.
"It's a pity that the Ming Dynasty's actions in these years were really unbearable, and Adou couldn't be helped at all. Otherwise, why would they choose Houjin?
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is no doubt that Hou Jin¡¯s army is powerful.
For more than ten years, the Ming army had no success against the rear army.
so. Of course, they can only choose Houjin and work hard for it.
However, Hou Jin¡¯s way of treating them was not good. When he used them, he often sent someone to inform them and then pulled them down. When you don't use it, you just ignore it.
¡°For example, this winter, there was a severe snowstorm in northern Mongolia.
The Mongolian tribes living in the north, such as the Alashan tribe, suddenly suffered.
Many of their livestock were frozen to death, and the people were about to die.
You must know that the Mongolian tribes in this era. Anyone who encounters the severe cold in winter will have a headache.
If you are a tribe closer to the Ming Dynasty, you can also buy some things from the Ming Dynasty merchants to relieve yourself. But it is very difficult for Mongolian tribes like Alxa.
Because they were too far away from the Ming Dynasty, and too many livestock were frozen to death. The wind and snow were so heavy that they couldn't get out at all.
You might want to ask Houjin for help, but Houjin ignored them, as if they were left to fend for themselves. This comes from the Alxa Department. I was also very angry about Hou Jinguo's attitude.
But while they were angry, they were also very helpless.
Because even if Hou Jin does this to them, they can't do anything.
Because the powerful force of the Hou Jin army is there. There is absolutely nothing they can do.
So, tribes like the Alxa tribe can only swallow their anger.
However, during this time, they have seen a glimmer of hope.
The powerful Houjin Army actually suffered a series of setbacks in more than a year, and was defeated repeatedly by the Jincheng army.
This is something that has never happened before during the rise of Hou Jin Guo.
Yes, since Nurhachi raised his troops, Houjin has almost won more than lost in the battle against the Ming Dynasty. Especially the Battle of Saerhu made Hou Jin even more legendary.
And the weak combat effectiveness of the Ming army also opened the eyes of the surrounding forces.?
Over the years, the Northern Territory of the Ming Dynasty was gradually swallowed up and occupied by Hou Jin, but the Ming Dynasty was helpless.
It was also the weakness of the Ming army that created the myth that the Jin army was powerful and invincible.
However, just when the Later Jin Army was at its peak, an army from Ming Dynasty actually fought against the Later Jin Army and suffered successive defeats.
Isn¡¯t this a fucking fairy tale?
It has to be said that the series of military actions Zhao Hongyu and others took against Hou Jin around Jincheng completely shattered the myth that the Hou Jin army was invincible.
The so-called slogan "Jurchens are invincible" is a complete joke in front of the Imperial Army.
¡°There is no way that the news of the battle here in Jincheng could not reach the grassland.
The Alxa Ministry has also heard about this.
It just so happened that this winter, it encountered an unprecedented severe cold. This makes the situation of the tribe very worrying. If one mistake is not made, the whole tribe will be destroyed.
Therefore, the Alxa tribe in the early stage sent people to Shengjing, the capital of Houjin Kingdom, hoping to get help from Houjin to survive the entire cold winter.
However, what they didn¡¯t expect was that the Houjin side actually tried to shirk the Alxa Ministry¡¯s request for a while and didn¡¯t want to pay attention to it at all.
This made the people in the Alxa Department very critical.
"Obviously, after Jin Zai suffered a series of defeats, the loss of troops and generals was not small.
Now, they can¡¯t even take care of themselves, so how can they still have the strength to help the Alxa Ministry.
"It's a pity that the Alxa Ministry will not consider this. What they see is just some pushback from Houjin."
? Okay!
Over the years, the Alxa Ministry has not sent troops to help Houjin when it was recruiting mercenaries, and it has also supplied a large number of war horses to Houjin every year.
????????????? But Hou Jin didn¡¯t show any sign of this, and even the war horse was for nothing.
At the same time, the wealth Hou Jin had plundered in the Ming Dynasty over the years did not give them much of the Alxa tribe.
It can be said that the Alashan tribe followed the Houjin Kingdom. Even the soup is not considered drinkable.
But no matter what, the Alashan Department has fulfilled its obligations and responsibilities as an 'ally', and is very worthy of the Houjin Kingdom.
However, when the Alxa Division encountered a crisis, Hou Jinguo had such an attitude, which made people feel chilling.
Therefore, after encountering repeated shirks, the Alxa envoy left Shengjing and returned to the tribe to talk about the matter, which immediately aroused the indignation of the tribe.
Everyone cursed and condemned the Houjin Jurchen for his dishonesty.
It was at this time that someone suddenly came up with a suggestion: why not send someone to Jincheng for help.
As long as you hide it from the Houjin Jurchen. Just let them not know about it.
I heard that the people in Jincheng are very rich and have abundant supplies.
If negotiations with them can succeed, the tribe's crisis can be completely resolved.
What is particularly important is that you can take this opportunity to negotiate with the Ming Army in Jincheng to see if the Alxa Division can fall into the arms of the Ming Dynasty.
You must know that the strength displayed by the ¡®Ming Army¡¯ is already very staggering.
It can be seen that Jin Ke has nothing to do about it in the future.
So. Relying on the population of the Jurchens of the Later Jin Dynasty and the number of troops. How could it be compared with the Ming Dynasty, which had such a huge territory, army, and people.
Over the past few years, maybe Daming has been recuperating its energy. Secretly train the army.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????The Ming Dynasty came up with powerful tactics and troops, so the good days of the Later Jin Dynasty are coming to an end.
So, can Houjin maintain this trend in the future. But you have to think about it carefully.
And those forces who are related to Houjin either due to the situation or because of geographical relations, it is necessary to think clearly at this moment. Plan for yourself.
At the same time, Ming Dynasty is usually very kind to forces like them. They are not as aggressive as the Houjin Jurchens at all, and they are not even willing to give a little help.
So, no matter how you look at it, falling into the arms of Ming Dynasty is a good choice.
What's more, Alxa is located in the northwest of the Jurchens of Houjin. Once it falls into the arms of the Ming Dynasty, its geographical location will pose a great threat to Houjin.
plus the southern endIf Jincheng exists, the Later Jin Kingdom will be in great trouble.
Judging from this, if they go to Jincheng to discuss, there is a high probability that they will succeed.
In addition, the situation of the tribe was already very bad, so the Alxa Ministry quickly made up its mind and organized an envoy to go to Jincheng in a very short period of time.
However, due to the harsh winter and wind and snow, the mission was not very fast.
It was not until now that we arrived at Jincheng.
But it was precisely because of the heavy snowstorm this winter that their whereabouts were well hidden, so that Houjin was not aware of the Alxa people's plan at all.
Regarding these, Zhao Hongyu¡¯s intelligence personnel still found out some information.
Based on this intelligence information, Zhao Hongyu¡¯s staff deduced and analyzed the situation.
And then Sun Chuanting explained the contents of the imperial palace newspaper, which made Zhao Hongyu confirm the intention of the Alxa people.
He raised his hand and rubbed his chin, then looked down at Sun Chuanting, who was leading the horse.
"So, the Alxa people want to join the imperial court?"
"No! It should be that I want to join you, Your Highness. Jincheng is not a place under the jurisdiction of our Ming army." Sun Chuanting corrected him after hearing this.
"Hi! Anyway, it seems that the Alxa people want to betray Houjin. This is the first Mongolian tribe to show this intention. I think there will be more and more such tribes in the future, right?"
Zhao Hongyu laughed happily.
"Then your Highness still needs to ignore them? I feel that I should contact him as soon as possible at this time, and then confirm this matter, so as to avoid long nights and dreams." Sun Chuanting looked at Zhao Hongyu, who looked happy, and gave it carefully. A recommendation.
"Well! You are right. It seems that it is not appropriate for me to leave them alone. This matter really should be resolved as soon as possible." Zhao Hongyu humbly accepted Sun Chuanting's suggestion. "Come here, please inform me of the Alxa people's envoys and ask them to come to Mr. Sun. I will receive them here." Then, Zhao Hongyu turned around and ordered the secretary who was following him.
After receiving Zhao Hongyu¡¯s order, the secretary quickly brought people to the temporary residence of the Alxa envoys, which was located in a relatively remote inn in Jincheng.
Because the Alxa Mission should try their best not to reveal their whereabouts to avoid being discovered by people from Houjin. Therefore, they were very cautious along the way. Even when they met other teams, they claimed to be caravans from a certain tribe, not Alxa.
Thanks to the heavy snowstorm this winter, the whereabouts were well hidden and no flaws were exposed.
However, even when they arrived in Jincheng, they could not take it lightly.
Because the people of Alxa knew that there would definitely be spies from the Hou Jin people here in Jincheng, because during the decades of confrontation between the Hou Jin Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, the spies of the Hou Jin people were famous.
Therefore, after they arrived in Jincheng, they did not choose a bustling place. Instead, this remote inn was used as a foothold in order to prevent his whereabouts from being revealed.
After meeting the secretary sent by Zhao Hongyu and hearing the news he conveyed, the Alxa envoys were all excited.
