Zhu Di's holy decree was sent to Liaodong one step ahead of Xia Xun, and Ding Yu immediately led his troops into the territory of Tatars.
Arutai was dumbfounded by the decisive intervention of the Ming army, and immediately lodged a strong protest, but the situation is stronger than people, and he is now suffering a serious loss of strength, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Warat people, various tribes have moved back, many tribes are now under the radiation range of the Liaodong Dusi, and temporarily lost contact with him, and the Ming court is the suzerainty he recognizes, and the Ming army has a high-sounding reason, and he has no choice but to do it again with the well-armed Ming army Due to Ji Gang's secret moves, although the fighting on the grassland was fierce, but the strength of Warat and Tatar was not exhausted, and the Ming army was forced to intervene in advance.
Some tribal leaders, either because they had been stubbornly hating the Ming Dynasty, or because of Arutai's covert instructions, openly resisted the Ming takeover, and even resorted to force.
Ding Yu has received detailed instructions, without mercy, immediately suppressed by bloody means, and taught the Tatars a lesson with butcher knives and blood: We are no longer full of benevolence and morality, and Mr.
Dong Yan is bound by you hooligans with benevolence and morality This time, some stubborn forces that should have been consumed by the hands of Wara can only be cut off by Da Ming himself, killing 1,000 people and 800 self-inflicted losses, and the casualties are naturally not small.
At the same time, Huairou means were staged at the same time, and the sticks and carrots arrived.
Wan Shiyu, the political envoy of Liaodu, personally escorted a large amount of grain and forage into the Tatars, which were used to provide relief to the Tatars, but in order to receive relief, they had to be disposed of.
You want to eat, you want to live, you want clothes to wear, how do we know if there are people who are pretending to take it, whether there is uneven distribution, and whether there are tribes who are unwilling to submit to the Ming Dynasty to take advantage Therefore, Wan Shiyu brought a large number of students from the academy, most of whom were of Mongolian and Jurchen descent, and were the sons of the leaders of those tribes and wealthy elders in Liaodong, and asked them to widely publicize the benevolence and painstaking efforts of His Majesty the Emperor to the Tatar tribes, and establish a good image of the Ming Dynasty among the herdsmen.
At the same time, the tribes that are willing to receive relief will be registered and resettled.
The herdsmen of each tribe were completely disrupted from the original tribal range, re-organized into households, and appointed some prestige and capable tribal leaders by the Liaodong Political Envoy according to the ten, hundred, and thousand tents, respectively, they either did not have such great power, or they disrupted the original organizational order, and their superiors and subordinates were not members of the original tribe.
Accept the arrangement, you can enjoy the power, and at the same time get relief, if you don't accept it, you will starve to death, and the so-called power will also disappear, and there is Ding Yu, the murderous demon next to him, who sharpens his knife, most people can only accept such an arrangement.
The appointment and dismissal of tribal leaders with more than 100 tents are controlled by the political envoys of Liaodong.
At present, or because of the prestige of the old name, the top leaders of the original tribe can still influence these middle-level leaders, but in time, their influence is bound to become weaker, not bad for the Ming Dynasty, they can't even guarantee their own status, which ensures that the entire tribe can't act in unison and deviate from the Ming Dynasty.
The losses of some tribes are not so serious, the current demand for food and various disaster relief materials is not very urgent, their leaders are unwilling to hand over the supreme power, there is still a wait-and-see meaning, and the Wanshi Domain is not forced, for these tribes that migrated earlier, the tribal organization and tribal wealth have not been seriously damaged by the Warats, he also extended an olive branch in a friendly way.
Wan Shiyu is like a smiling tiger, very generously allowing these tribes to maintain their own structures and territories, without having to accept the Ming Dynasty's household and distribution, it doesn't matter if there is a lack of food and clothing, Brother Kaichang will exchange horses, cattle and sheep, iron tools, bows and arrows, furs, gold and silverware, wool, herbs, felt blankets, you take anything, I will exchange it with you, even if it is only worth a few small pieces of rags, you can exchange it for a handful of rice and go back to eat.
These things are gone, especially resources such as livestock, if you want to reproduce, you must have enough "seeds" in your hands, these things are all taken for food, the current difficulty is solved, what to do when grazing in the spring next year then you have to take one step at a time.
The upper and lower levels of the tribe are more serious than in the Central Plains, the leaders have a lot of wealth, while the ordinary herdsmen have extremely limited materials, the gap between the rich and the poor is huge, who will scatter the family wealth, and generously distribute their property to others in exchange for one less thing, but the food in exchange is a little less for a day, and it doesn't take long for some ordinary herdsmen to be unable to hold on.
However, those leaders could not take out their own property and exchange it for food for them for free, nor could they solve their livelihood problems, and at the same time, they also used forceful means to control them, and did not allow them to accept the resettlement conditions of the Liaodong Political Envoys, and these ordinary herdsmen who could not survive gradually had friction with their own leaders.
Wan Songling wants this effect, and if you wait patiently for a while, the good show will be staged.
When the Wanshi Domain was in full swing, Ding Yu picked up a big stick to kill the stubborn reactionaries in the Tatar tribe, and on the other hand, he proposed to Warat in the name of mediation, and asked to treat all the captives well, and wait for the ruling of the Ming Court.
At this time, it was the time for Xia Xun to climb the plow by a deer and go to Warat alone.
In the big tent where the sweat of Wara did not take off, a couple who used to mix oil in honey were tense.
Huoahatun was so angry that his face turned red, and he said angrily: "It was you who said that after receiving accurate news, there is more than one grain and grass in Arutai, so I want to burn down a granary, and the Arutai army will fight to the death when it is unstable, but now where are the other granaries in Arutai The Ming court has intervened in mediation, and the envoy I sent to Tatar came back to say that all the departments under the command of Arutai have accepted the disposal of the Ming court due to lack of clothing and food, and if Arutai still has grain in stock, as for this" Wan Songling said: "There is always a time when the news is not true, what are you doing when you are so angry?"
Huo'a was furious, and shouted: "What am I doing so angry, if you didn't say this, how would Princess Samuer and I resolutely support and force the other ministries to agree to your decision Now that we have suffered so many casualties, we asked the Ming Court to take the opportunity to intervene and take advantage of the fishermen, isn't it your fault that Taiping also died in this battle, isn't it your fault that the Taiping tribe was determined to avenge Taiping and executed Ars, Arutai immediately returned the color and executed my general Mandu Latu, and so on, isn't it because of your fault" Wan Songling said disappreciably: "How can there be immortals in the war, Mandu Latu is dead, we will ask Arutai for this account one day As for Taiping, hehe, as soon as Taiping dies, the rest of the Bald Polo will be difficult to support alone, and in the future, this Wara will not be you and me."
Otherwise, how can I hold the power of Warat alone, the so-called unbreakable and unbroken, O Huo, if you think about it carefully, you will understand that this is very beneficial to you and me. ” Mrs.
Huo's face changed, she looked at Wan Songling in shock, and said in disbelief: "Could it be that so many of our clansmen sacrificed in vain was actually a ploy of yours, and you fought this idea from the beginning."
Wan Songling hurriedly said: "How can there be such a thing, I also thought about it afterwards, and I think this matter is not necessarily a bad thing." ” Wan Songling said sweetly: "Huo, my heart, how can I deceive you again and again Yes, our casualties are also very serious, but Arutai is even worse, he has so many tribes that have been accepted by the Ming Court, what will he use to contend with us in the future Arutai not only lost all his military strength, but even the tribesmen were seriously damaged, and the Ming Court took the opportunity to swallow a large piece of him, hehe, he will not be a problem from now on."
But although our expeditionary force has suffered heavy casualties, the foundation has not been traumatized, and when we get enough benefits in the mediation of the Ming court, we will return to our place, and when the spring flowers bloom, we will be able to receive a large area of Tatar rich grassland, five or eight years later, think about it, in this steppe, in addition to you and me, will there be a second master?"
Saying that, Wan Songling leaned into Mrs.
Huo'a, gently hugged her waist, and wanted to repeat the trick to soften her attitude, Mrs.
Huo'a pushed him away fiercely, her eyes spewed fire, and she said angrily: "I won't trust you anymore, I'm blind, I actually believe that you are a big hero From now on, I will never trust you again."
"Huoa" Wan Songling shouted and stopped helplessly, Huo Ahatun had already decided to go, out of the tent, and galloped away with a prancing horse whip Wan Songling rolled his eyes and said in his heart: "Huo'a, this stinky girl, she has probably been deceived too much by men, and for the sake of a general, she wants to break with me."
Fortunately, Princess Samuel's own loss is not much, and it is not so fierce for me, and I have to stand firm, and it seems that I have to stammer her well.
Thinking in his heart, Wan Songling also got out of the big tent and went straight to Princess Samur's big tent.
It is no wonder that Huo'a Hatun is very prosperous, although she has the largest territory and the most herdsmen in the tribe, but she is an outsider after all, and the original aristocratic leaders of the ministry may not be so convinced of her, this Mandu Latu is a leader of the tribe with great power and prestige, he has always been a little infatuated with Huo'a, so he obeys her.
Now that Mandu Ratu is dead, and the tribe is in turmoil, some ill-intentioned people have begun to settle old scores, saying that she should not have only escaped and disobeyed, so that their tribe has suffered so great losses, and incited dissatisfaction with her, that her position has begun to be unstable.
She came to Wan Songling to lose her temper, not to seek a kind of spiritual comfort, but she didn't expect Wan Songling to let Ahatun think more and more cold, galloped all the way, returned to her tribe non-stop, turned over and dismounted, stepped into the tent, and immediately commanded in a deep voice: "Someone came to gather all the tribal leaders to watch the ceremony, and I want to light the heavenly lantern for the righteous daughter of Arutai to comfort the soul of Mandu Latu in the sky."
