【Chapter 314】Only one year

(0314)

In addition, Hellerkin also has another possibility, which is to ask Lin Danhan for help. Although there had been a long and continuous battle between the Tartars of the Hellerkin tribe and the Tumot tribe of the *** people in order to compete for the pastures in Yinshan and the south of Daqingshan. The deaths of both sides were heavy, and the hatred between the two tribes was also very deep. However, when the Hellerkin tribe was alive and died, Hellerkin would definitely lower his figure and ask Lin Danhan for help.

It is estimated that Lin Danhan will not be saved by death, and the possibility of sending troops to aid is extremely high. Because, from the perspective of bloodline, most Tatars and most of the people are connected with blood. If Lin Danhan does not be saved by death, it will be of no benefit to his reputation. Now Lin Danhan is young and strong, and he is ambitious to do something big, and he will definitely not easily tolerate his reputation being tarnished.

From the perspective of interests, the Helejin tribe was eliminated by the Ming army or annexed by other Tatar tribes, which was of no benefit to Lin Danhan. The biggest obstacle for Lin Danhan to unify the tribes was the Korqin tribe in the east. If a strong enemy appeared in the south of Yinshan in the west, Lin Danhan would not be able to concentrate his main force to suppress the Korqin tribe. Therefore, solving his worries is the first thing Lin Danhan had to do.

Of course, Lin Dankhan is also a guy who cannot get up early without profit. He will not easily agree to aid Hellkin. He must put forward conditions. Among them, the most likely condition is to let Hellkin move eastward and migrate to the surrounding areas of Guihua City (Hohhot), directly under the control of Lin Dankhan. In the areas south of Yinshan, people were sent to directly enter and turn it into the grassland pasture of the Tumot tribe.

Finally, when there is no choice, Hellerkin has another road to go, that is, to send people directly to the capital, to apologize to Emperor Wanli, hope to surrender, and hope to become a member of the Ming Dynasty. This approach seems ridiculous, ridiculous, and ridiculous. In fact, its practicality is still very strong, even stronger than the previous two choices. If Hellerkin really chooses this path, the possibility of success is really great.

It should be known that the most deadly problem of the Han people is to suffer with face. They always consciously or unconsciously show the so-called demeanor of a great power and do not blame them. No matter how serious the other party makes or how much damage they cause to themselves, as long as the other party lightly says, "I know you are wrong and regret it", there is a possibility of letting go. This is the so-called forgiveness and forgiveness. If you beat the dog in the water, you will lose the demeanor of a great country, and also damage the mean way of Confucianism, and you will be attacked by political enemies.

This is especially true for the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty. They value fame and fortune too much and love fame too much. For those fat officials, they cannot see the sufferings suffered by the military households at the bottom of Ningxia Town. What they saw was only the yellow gold, white silver sent by Hellerjin, and perhaps there were also beautiful women with charm. Without the need for a brain to get angry, they were very likely to agree to Hellerjin's request.

If the court agreed to Hellejin's request, Xu Xingxia would be a little difficult to deal with. If Hellejin really surrendered to Ming Kingdom, even if he was hypocritical and false, he would definitely face pressure with the white army to kill the other party. Those guys in the court who were in corpses were not interested in doing serious things, but their means of persuading people were very powerful. God knows, what kind of open and secret arrows would they release to themselves behind their backs?

Of course, this is not to say that if Hellerkin uses such a move, Xu Xingxia has no choice. Books are dead, people are alive, and can living people still teach them to suffocate to death? If Hellerkin tribe wants to surrender, it will definitely take a certain amount of time to operate. After all, this is a big event and the court also needs the court to discuss it. In addition, other Tatars, or Lin Danhan, are definitely unwilling to see the Hellerkin tribe joining the Ming Kingdom. As long as it is possible, they will definitely send people to make trouble. It is even possible that they will take the lead and clean up the Hellerkin tribe.

Various reasons will make things very complicated and turbulent. Even if Hellerjin is determined to surrender, it will take at least several months to operate the entire process. If the operation is not smooth, it may take a year or more. As long as Xu Xingxia takes action during this period of time, kills the other party in one fell swoop, causing the established fact that the raw rice is cooked into a cooked rice, no one has anything to say. The tribe no longer exists, what else can we say?

"It's only one year." Xu Xingxia told himself silently.

...

The life and death of a small Helejin Tartar tribe inadvertently quietly leveraged the most important forces in the northwest of Ming Dynasty at that time. It was like a small stone thrown into the lake, and the waves that stirred were almost invisible. However, the ripples that stirred up spread outwards one by one.

In real history, the Hailejin tribe surrendered to the Qing Dynasty when the Qing soldiers entered the grassland. Before that, they had been the main force of the Ming army heading south to harass the Ningxia Zhenming Army. Now, with the emergence of Xu Xingxia, the Hailejin tribe has destruction ahead of schedule. The change in the fate of this small Tatar tribe will mean that there will be more people and things, and their destiny will change. The process of historical development will also be affected to a certain extent.

Of course, for Xu Xingxia now, he was too lazy to think about such a profound thing. As long as he lives well and does his own things within his ability, it is enough for him. Now, he is dedicated to managing his own land and training his white-clothed army, which is all his work.

The soldiers who died in battle need pensions, the injured need treatment, the chaotic battlefield needs to be cleaned, the damaged firearms and equipment need to be repaired, the condolence team coming from behind needs to be arranged, the released Han slaves need to be settled, and the three negotiation conditions need to be supervised and implemented... All of this requires a lot of time. Therefore, after the battle, Xu Xingxia stayed in Zhenyuan Pass and personally dealt with the related aftermath matters.

After the Diaoqi Army expanded to 300 people, the number of registered personnel of the White-Clothed Army was still 1,120. As for the empty Huatou, it is considered a shadow unit and no longer exists. It is estimated that only Xu Xingxia knew how many actual troops the White-Clothed Army were. In Xu Xingxia's hands, there is another roster. The formal establishment of the vacant roster on this roster must be drawn from the auxiliary soldiers and the most elite personnel must be selected to supplement it.

These meticulous work is actually very complicated and very messy. All kinds of messy things are mixed together, and the entire Zhenyuanguan military camp is simply a mess. Some people suddenly found that when the war was not so chaotic. Now that the war is no longer the war, things are even more chaotic. It is really strange. At the beginning, Xu Xingxia needed to make decisions for all things big and small. Sometimes, Xu Xingxia needed to give advice from him. The things are so busy and the people are so crowded that Xu Xingxia is busy every day. After finishing the day, he went back to the tent at night and fell asleep, and he didn't even have a chance to dream.

Fortunately, as time goes by, Zhang Quanfu, Chi Hu and others gradually gained experience. They could take the initiative to accept ordinary daily affairs. After they got started, Xu Xingxia felt a little relaxed. When they dreamed at night, they seemed to be able to dream of the capital and a familiar beautiful figure. Unfortunately, after waking up, all this was empty. Looking at the dim dome of the tent, Xu Xingxia seemed to be saying something, but in the end she didn't know what to say, so she had to sigh gently and continue to sleep.

In a blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the Chinese New Year. This was the day when the Qingwang Mansion Garden Party mentioned by Huyan Aobo. However, on this day, Xu Xingxia was talking at the expansion ceremony of the Diaoqi Army and did not come back until night fell. What is certain is that Xu Xingxia definitely cannot attend the Qingwang Mansion Garden Party. However, it doesn’t matter. The garden party is said to last for half a month. During this half month, guests can go to attend at any time. When they have time, they can just attend it.

Starting from the tenth day of the Chinese New Year, negotiations with the Tatars gradually began to be fulfilled. The Eridun tribe was the fastest to fulfill its promise, and 100,000 taels of silver were quickly escorted. The 100,000 taels of silver were distributed to fifty war horses, and each war horse was borne 2,000 taels of war horses. The Tartars had always been hard but not soft. This time, Eridun was really afraid of being beaten and was crippled. He really didn't want to be enemies with the White Army.

Eridun wanted to please his relationship with Xu Xingxia so that Xu Xingxia would not fall on his tribe's butcher's knife in the future. Therefore, in addition to the prescribed 100,000 taels of silver, he also provided a large number of sheepskin, cowhide, horse skin, and a large number of wool, oxen and other gifts. He almost emptied the tribe's warehouse storage. Judging from the number of gifts, he was sincere and sincere.

"Okay, that's it! You all go back!" Xu Xingxia said casually. Since Eridun is so sensible, it will not be difficult for him to do it. Anyway, within a year, the white-clothed army is not able to find trouble for the Eridun tribe. As for a year later, let's talk about it. His response made the messenger of the Eridun tribe breathe a lot. It seems that the level of Old Demon Xu has finally passed by.

Compared with Eridun, the Hellerjin tribe was much slower to implement the agreement. It was not until the 14th day of the first lunar month that the White Army began to receive the first batch of slaves released by the Hellerjin tribe, with a number of less than 3,000. Under the high pressure of the White Army, Hellerjin had to release a large number of Han slaves to avoid being chased by the White Army. However, he had to play a little trick and refused to release all the slaves in one go.

Xu Xingxia knew what Hellerjin thought best. I guess such an old guy thought that the slaves could be used as hostages in his hands and used to threaten the White Army. This is simply extremely naive. With the current military power of the Hellerjin tribe, he still wants to continue to control these tens of thousands of Han slaves?

Xu Xingxia ordered the Diaoqi Army to strengthen its harassment of the Hellerjin tribe. At the same time, it strengthened the incitement of those Han slaves. With the support of the Jinyiwei's intelligence network, it was almost impossible for the White-Clothed Army to contact Han slaves. As a result, a considerable number of Han slaves launched a rebellion with the support of the White-Clothed Army. Hellerjin, who could not support, had to release all the Han slaves at once.

In this breath, the Tartars released more than 33,000 Han slaves. All the Han slaves owned by the entire Helejin tribe were released. It was a bit difficult to return to Zhenyuan Pass for so many Han slaves from the Helejin tribe. Especially walking through the Ulanbu and Desert is simply impossible. Without war horses, it would be absolutely impossible. In the white-clothed army, there were no more than 30,000 war horses.

"You have to provide war horses with Helekin!" Xu Xingxia said coldly.

Under the pressure of the White Army, Hellejin had to provide a war horse to every Han slave as compensation. Of course, he was exempted from compensation for the White Army by 100,000 taels of silver. He wanted the Tartar slaves, the Tartar war horses, and the Tartar silver. His appetite was too big and he could not swallow them, so he had to make a choice.

In this breath, the White-Clothed Army drew more than 30,000 war horses from the Helekin Tartars. Although in the northwest region, war horses are not scarce at all, and the value of war horses is not very good. A war horse is only a few taels of silver on the border. As long as you have money, you can buy thousands of war horses at will. However, for the White-Clothed Army, it is still very useful to obtain more than 30,000 war horses at once, and there is no need to worry about not enough war horses in the future.

A large number of Han slaves rode south on horseback, and the vast team could not see at first sight. After five days of long journey, they finally arrived at the Heishan Camp area and entered the camp area arranged by the management committee. The arrival of more than 30,000 Han slaves suddenly made the deserted Heishan Camp extremely lively. The population of Zhenshuobao and Heishan Camp completely surpassed Pinglu City and became the most dazzling existence in the north of Ningxia Town.

There is no doubt that the arrival of a large number of Han slaves has greatly increased the labor force around the Heishan Camp. The hundreds of households in the management committee are busy carrying out their work again. The white-clothed army is rich, and some are of course working hard to carry out infrastructure. Weizhenbao, Zhenshuobao, and Heishan Camp have a large number of infrastructure projects underway in the work of the vigorous work. The number of farmhouses opened by the management committee has also increased to more than 60.
