Chapter 1420 Consciousness
"I've been here with the Four Beile last time." Tan Tai said with a relaxed expression: "The elders of the tribe are very wise and respect us..."
People in the tribe also noticed Tan Tai and his party. First, the crowd was in a stir, as if there were women screaming a few times. Then Tan Tai heard strange screams from the tribe, and there were also bursts of screams from the woodlands around him.
"Not good, it's an ambush." Shu Mu's expression changed and he immediately turned around and rode away.
Tan Tai and others hesitated, but at this time, the sound of shouting and crowds running came from the periphery. Then several bone arrows were shot from dozens of steps, all of which were shot onto everyone's armor.
"Let's go!" Tan Tai's face looked very ugly. The small tribe who had been quite respectful before actually attacked them without saying a word. If they really fight, these five people can kill at least dozens of people from the other tribe, but the people from these small tribes attacked them without hesitation.
"Fuck, damn it!" Tan Tai also learned some Chinese language. The swear words among the Jurchens were not as good as Hua Qiao. At this time, Tan Tai couldn't help but scream in Chinese language.
The five people were in a very embarrassing situation and were chased by a group of Ewenki people. Not only did they not get supplies or rest, but they made themselves even more tired.
...
The large lake cannot see at a glance. Before the green aquatic plants reached the point of yellow, the entire water surface on the shore was divided into fragments by aquatic plants higher than people. There were more than a dozen bonfires by the lake. More than 300 cavalrymen tied their horses to the periphery and formed a circle. Then more than a dozen people sat around the bonfire, roasting the fire to remove the cold accumulated all the way. At the same time, they also skewed the newly-catched lake fish with branches, grilling the fish for supper.
These fish are quite plump and tender. Because people are rarely visited, the fish in the lake are afraid of people and can easily catch dozens of them.
The Jurchens were not so cute when they were in the wild. They grilled fish and ate some hard wheat cakes. Many people fell asleep directly on the ground, and the whole camp snored loudly.
Next to the shaking campfire was Sahalian looking up at the starry sky. His face was erratic under the light of the fire, sometimes very clear, sometimes very blurry.
This is a typical Jurchen noble face, with a fair face, unlike the face of a warrior who has been fighting in the wild for many years. The melon-shaped face is quite delicate, revealing a sense of depressingness that should not be. From the overall image, it is a bit weak, but if you look carefully, you will find that there is a deep mark on the texture of the face, which is the appearance characteristic of those who are determined will and have extraordinary character. Not only that, there is also a kind of wisdom and firmness between the eyes, but also a kind of perseverance and courage.
As an outstanding figure among the grandchildren of Nuerhaci, Sahalian has always been praised by the Eight Banners. His military achievements are very good, but because of his more dazzling brother Yue Tuo, his glory is sometimes ignored. However, no matter what, even if he suffered a considerable loss at the foot of the Thirteen Mountains, he was still loved by Nuerhaci. This time he went north to go to the left wing of Korqin, and was also the general ordered by Nuerhaci himself. Sahalian did not dare to neglect it. After receiving the order, he went on the road. In addition to the Niulu in his headquarters, the two yellow flags also sent elite soldiers and strong generals to accompany him. This time, the task was only allowed to succeed, not to fail.
A thirty-year-old Niu Luezhen came from afar, and stopped near the campfire, warmed his hands and feet before coming to Sahalian.
"The slaves bow to Baylor."
Sahalian had long been named Beizi, the most outstanding representative of the Aisin Gioro youth generation. The title tells everything. Abatai just signed Beizi. Originally, when Yuetuo and others signed Beile half a year ago, Sahalian could seal Beile, but the defeat at the foot of the Thirteen Mountains delayed the process. Later, Sahalian made several contributions and was finally awarded Beile a month ago.
The Jurchens did not have a title at this time, and Beile was the highest title. The status of the four major benefactors such as Huang Taiji was not superior to those of others. However, the four major benefactors had their own independent forces and their influence among the Eight Banners was not comparable to that of the little benefactors. Although Sahalian was a Benefactor, only three Niulu were not strong in the two Red Banners, let alone the influence of the entire Eight Banners.
As for the banner owner like Du Du, he is just a Beizi, which is of course the result of intentional suppression. His Niulu also has its own influence, so the strength of the banner owner like Du Du is far from comparable to the four major Beile.
"It's Suksaha." Sahalian plucked the bonfire with the branches, and raised his hand at this time, saying, "Get up."
"I thanked Bell." Suksaha's eyes flashed for a moment, and his whole face showed a very smart look. He said to Sahalian: "I have wandered upstream along the river until the ancient Liaojin Nong'an Station more than 30 miles away. There are so deserted and several tribes living along the river no longer see any traces."
"Along the way, except for the tribes close to the wall, other tribes either betray us, build villages to fight us, or just keep their clans away." Sahalian looked into the distance, and there were bloody clouds above the bonfire.
Suksaha smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what these fence-bearers do. They don't dare to come out and make trouble with us. That's good."
Sahalian said in a daze: "The times are changing, something that I'd never imagined."
"The strong are kings." Suksaha smiled indifferently and said, "Isn't this the Han people talking about success, kings and defeats? When our army comes, these fence-bearing grass will be scraped back... What's important is what we should do next, and we don't have to take these fish-skinned Tartars into their hearts."
"Along the way, I still feel a little emotional." Sahalian didn't say much. Suksaha is Niu Luezhen, a subsidiary of Zhenghuang. Her family is under Zhenghuang, and her family is under Zhenghuang, who is qualified. Now his family's Niu Lu is under the name of the Fourteenth Prince. They belong to different spheres of influence. They can cooperate with each other when they come out to work together, but there is no need to have too many heart-to-heart talks.
"Sister, please give me a message," Suksaha said, "When will you start tomorrow?"
"I have arrived at Nong'an Station." Sahalian said: "It's less than ten days away from the people of Korqin. I don't think there is too much rush. Everyone was tired before, so let's leave after tomorrow."
Nong'an Station was a famous post station in the Liao and Jin Dynasties, and it was very large in scale. It is of course abandoned now. To the south is the Siping area of later generations, and to the left is the location of the Korqin tribe, which is also the location of the Korqin Left Banner Alliance. At this moment, of course, it is a wilderness place with no development at all. Arriving here, it has already taken a detour. In fact, the Hutchison soldiers and horses and the cavalry of Thirteen Mountains do not have the ability to avoid such a long distance. Just to be on the safe side, Sahalian's detour was also far enough this time.
Suksaha said uneasyly: "Slaves will change if they are afraid of being late."
"If the Hutchison army really arrived at Korqin, it would be too late for us to go now." Sahalian said lightly: "If the army has not arrived, it is likely to be a battle between the delegations. It is not better for us to accumulate strength."
Sahalian frowned and said seriously: "Korqin is not only our Mongolian ally, but also an important helper for my Great Jin to enter the grassland. As long as there is something to do, even if we all die in battle, we must strive to protect the Korqin tribes. Do you understand?"
The senior Jurchen leaders all understood that the importance of Korqin was not because of their population or grassland. These were nothing. Korqin was just a banner. The flag of Mongolia surrender. Of course, with the help of Korqin, many small tribes would sincerely surrender. In the future, the Jurchens would also receive the entire grassland. It is very important for these Mongolian tribes to support them. Korqin is a gate, or a key. The Jurchens have already opened the door with the key and saw a better scenery. How can they give up now?
Even if a war breaks out or the sacrifice of Sahalian, the Baylor and many elite soldiers in the outpost battle, is still unwilling to do so. This is also Sahalian's enlightenment. The mission of this trip is not as simple as it seems.
Sahalian looked around, and most of his subordinates looked confused, and he didn't care. In this world, there were not many people with true knowledge and wisdom, and it was not worth disappointing.
Sahalian remembered Huang Taiji's words before he left, asking him to figure out what was going on in the Korqin area. If there was a possibility, he must break the situation so that the Korqin people could remember that they were ally of the Jurchens.
"First-line possibilities" and "at all costs", which was Huang Taiji's words when he was staring at Sahalian's instructions. Sahalian deeply understood and knew how important his task was.
Suksaha looked respectful, and he looked at Sahalian and said, "Belle is really devoted to my big gold, and I admire him."
Sahalian did not speak out. He felt that he had the most important mission, and had a great sense of mission and the awareness of devoting himself to it. When he set out from Liaoyang, Sahalian said goodbye to his concubine and several sons. Of course, he did not say it clearly, but he already had the intention of decisive death in his heart.
As long as there is a bright future, you must fight for your life!
The relatives and nobles of the Aisin Gioro family are different. Most of the relatives and nobles nowadays are brave, warlike, cruel and killing-like personality like Ajige. They are violent and impulsive. Sakhalin is very knowledgeable and looks very restrained and deep in his subordinates. Huang Taiji admires him very much. However, at the critical moment, Sakhalin also knew what he should do to gain the reputation and reputation of the family.
In any case, this trip has been quite unhappy so far. The originally obedient small tribe showed a state of renunciation and virtue, and even implicit hostility. I don’t know what kind of situation will be encountered when I arrived at the Korqin people.
