No matter what Bolu reacted, the established military operations in Ulutus would not stop. On the banks of the Ershui River in Weizhou, the original garrison had completed crossing the river. Not only that, a floating bridge was also built on the river surface.

When all the main forces arrive, the time for crossing the river will be greatly shortened. In the adjacent Shouguang County, Shi Tianze, the governor of Yidu Prefecture, has received an emergency military information from the Ming army crossing the river.

However, Ming Kingdom had already prepared something, so before he could send troops, he had already established a foothold on the right bank of the river.

At this time, the envoy of the Ming army also came to Shouguang County to recruit surrender.

Since the end of the Shandong War in the Old Sui, the money, grain, taxes and military defenses of Yidu, Zizhou, Dizhou and Binzhou were handed over to Shi Tianze by Mu Huali. Because he defected early and made great contributions to the Mongolian Khanate's management of the Han area, even though he was defeated in Shandong in the Old Sui, Mu Huali still trusted his Shijia as always.

Otherwise, this important border defense area that resisted the Ming Dynasty would not be left under Shi Tianze's jurisdiction.

However, because the old Ulutus plundered the population like a cocoon on the East and West Road in Shandong, and the influence of the refugee wave, Shi Tianze was unable to do anything even if he was both wise and brave. In addition, he saw the way to harass the Ming Dynasty from the chaotic East and West Road in Shandong, he ignored the chaos in the local area.

In this way, Yidu, Zibo, Dizhou, and Binzhou are still quite peaceful.

Of course, this is only relative to Shi Tianze and the Mongolian Khanate. As for the vast majority of ordinary people, their life or death are not within Shi Tianze's consideration.

At present, in Shouguang City, the envoy of the Ming Kingdom, Sukhbaru, was respectfully invited to the yamen.

Since Yidu Mansion was burned out by fire, Shi Tianze had no money and food to rebuild the city, so he had to move his garrison to Shouguang City. At the same time, it was also to monitor the movements of the Ming army nearby so that he could respond in a timely manner.

"Are you the handsome man of Yidu? Our king is here, surrender quickly." Sukhbaru said arrogantly when he saw Shi Tianze sitting in the hall.

"It's outrageous. We are all handsome. Why are you so rude?" Shi Tianze's aide Wang Shoudao saw that Sukhbaru was not only disrespectful when he came, but also looked domineering, and immediately scolded him.

"Hmph! I am a warrior from Mongolia. You are all handsome, just a Han Chinese in Yan. If you want to salute, you should be the one who salutes me." Although the Khan Court has not implemented the fourth-class system on a large scale, discrimination against external tribes in Mongolia has been a long-standing one in the Khan Court's rule.

The Han people have successively defected to the Khitan, Jurchen, and the Mongolian Khanate will not have much respect for such obedient people.

Of course, Sukhbaru only dared to show off the prestige of the Mongols in Shouguang. In the Ming Dynasty, he would never dare to show off the superiority of the Mongols in this way.

"But our family is a handsome man, and we are personally granted by the eldest son of ten thousand households. In terms of identity, we will never be worse than the little messenger like you." Wang Shoudao refuted with a sharp expression, but his dodging eyes were filled with guilt. Because under the rule of the Mongols, these Han people were really hard-working.

Just like the Qing Dynasty in later generations, no matter how important the Han ministers held in the court, they would still be half short when they met those Manchu ministers.

Sukhbaru immediately sneered and said disrespectfully: "Then our king is still the Ming king personally conferred by the Great Khan, and I am also the commander of the thousand men personally conferred by the Great King. You thousands of households should also secretly go and pay homage to our king."

He was sent here to persuade him to surrender, but he deliberately wanted to suppress Shi Tianze and the others as a Mongolian. Now listening to his responsive question, Wang Shoudao could only hold it in for a long time and said something unreasonable.

Suhbaru immediately burst into laughter, not caring about it at all.

Shi Tianze was well-mannered and was humiliated by Sukhbaru in person, and did not have an attack. He just waited for Sukhbaru to finish laughing and said, "If the Ming army was to arrest bandits, then I would ignore it this time when I crossed the border. But if I wanted to invade the three states and one prefecture of Yidu, I would never agree."

"Is the bones of the Shi family so hard? In fact, you are seeking the head of Muhualiwanhu and our Ming prince, who are both working for the Khan family. What's wrong with you? If you are afraid of implicating the family members of Yan, there is no need. Our king said that he will personally write a letter to Princess Alahaibeji and ask him to treat your Shi family well." Sukhbaru did not look so reckless, but was bold and meticulous, otherwise he would not have been recommended by Temulun to Ulutus as an envoy on his mission.

"Although His Highness, the King of Ming and Mu Huali, belong to the Khan Court, since I have served for the King of Wanhu, I can no longer surrender to His Highness. Otherwise, it would be a mistake for the two nobles to have a grudge against each other." No matter how competitive the Mongolian Khan Court and the Ming Dynasty were in the country, on the surface, as long as both sides did not break up, he could not slander Ulutus' identity at will.

After all, no matter how hard the prince of the Borjijin family can't get along with the Khan family, it's still a family matter.

"Hmph! Since you are so stubborn, then let's burn with Shouguang City." Suhbaru came here just to express the attitude of Ming Kingdom. He could convey his meaning and no longer talk about it.

After leaving, Wang Shoudao immediately looked nervous and said, "Shishou, what should I do? The Ming army fought undeclaredly, and the Ming King also led the army himself. Whether it is winning or losing, it will be bad for us!"

It’s really that Ulutus’s identity is too special. If you win, it would be a small Han man who slapped the Borjijin family in the face. No matter how unrespected Ulutus is in the family, he is also a member of the Borjijin family. To some extent, it also represents the face of the Khan Court.

If Shi Tianze is defeated, it is hard to believe that the other princes of the Borgejin family will feel resentful. This will be a huge disaster for the Shi family.

But if you lose, you will lose one mansion and three states, and Mu Huali will not be able to explain it. The foundation of the Shi family is in Yan land, which happens to be Mu Huali's direct territory. It is hard to say whether the Shi family will be blamed at that time.

So the current situation is that you can't win or lose.

"Please close the city gate first." Shi Tianze also thought of this and sighed: "I will first prepare a book for my family to see if my elder brother and father can think of a solution. In addition, you should go north immediately and go to Hejian Prefecture to ask Marshal Boludu for help. This is the family matter of the Mongolians, and we Han people should not involve too much."

This is the best way Shi Tianze can think of at present.

On the banks of the Ershui River in Weizhou, after hearing Sukhbaru's report, Ulutus immediately smiled on his face. He knew that Shi Tianze would not dare to fight head-on with him, the Mongolian prince.
