Chapter 367 Foreign wars are not amateurs!

When Urus Borot was sensible, his father Batu Méngk had already been the Khan who had firmly held the throne, and his mother was the famous Haidaharun of Mandu. Although there were tribal leaders around him with ulterior motives, the situation was much more relaxed than when his father first ascended the throne, so it was not an exaggeration to describe him as a born with a golden spoon in his arms. Compared with his elder brother Turuborot, as his twin brother, he was more handsome and had outstanding martial arts skills, so he was deeply loved by Batu Méngk. This time he led his troops to fight as a Jinong. But who would have thought that this battle was full of confidence and ended up in prison.

Since he failed to commit suicide, he has forgotten how many days have passed. At first, he was blocked and taken back to Datong, and he could still calculate the time in his heart. But as he was locked in a small dark room as if he had been forgotten, he could no longer count the number of days. The only thing he remembered was that he had eaten eighty meals in total - but some of these eighty meals were very long, while others had very short intervals. In addition, he was sleeping drowsy and woken up every day, and his biological clock was messed up. When one morning, he was dragged out of the dark room and held onto a carriage, even if someone who had known him before, he might not be able to recognize him, who was haggard and bearded, who was so haggard and bearded in the Chahar Khan Court.

So if he was transferred to Beijing from the beginning, he either thought about running away, wanted to commit suicide, or made some big noise. However, after being locked up for so long, his aura had almost been worn out, and he would eat and drink all the time, without a single word of extra words. When he was dragged down from the carriage and stuffed straight into a dark room, he woke up suddenly and tried his best to pounce on it wildly, but the door was closed tightly in front of him, and it was actually back to the same state as a small dark room.

"Bastard, open the door and let me out. I want to meet the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"

Urus Borot was not as good as his sister Turuletu, and the series of méng words burst out from his mouth. The Xichang manga guarded outside were all authentic people from the capital, and no one could understand it. Hearing the shouting inside, the two looked at each other, one of them laughed and said, "Zhongdao'er is really well-known. He can even catch such a Tartar from Datong."

"Who said no? Otherwise, how could a person who is so picky in Eunuch Gu use his hour to be the master of the Qianhu? The superiors took care of the Tartar inside and just gave him three salaries a day, and ignored the others and killed his son."

"Eunuch Gu and Zhongtou'er were too generous and asked me to say that they really wanted to kill his son. Then give him a meal every day, so hungry that he was half dead. Give him a whip and two boards every day as three meals to see what strength he has to scream!"

If Urus Borot could understand Chinese, he would have been furious to death by the cruel acts discussed by these two people as if nothing had happened. It was a pity that he could not understand a word and knew that the outsiders completely ignored him. When his throat was hoarse and smoked, he fell down powerlessly, feeling regretful and hated.

Gu Dayong, who had just rushed back from Datong, went straight in Gong Huitong, took a shower in the yard, changed into dry clothes, and went out to Xing'an Bo Mansion as discussed with Gu Dayong. He was also a person who often came and went, and now Jin Liujian was in charge of the door, so he naturally took him in.

In the past, Xu Xun was busy outside, and Xu Liang was so idle that he was moldy at home, but now he has turned around. Xu Liang had to go to the Beijing camp to supervise the exercises every day, but Xu Xun got a fake. In addition to stealing fragrance and jade outside the city, he often rested at home to make up for the hard work of the past more than a month. Now when Huitong was taking care of him under the study, he was still yawning.

"My uncle is so incompetent. Has he been singing every night lately?"

As soon as he entered the study, Huitong smiled and joked. Xu Xun sat on the chair with a relief of Huanghuali behind the desk, put his hands on the armrest of Yunwen Ruyi's head, and immediately said unhappily: "It's too late to make up for sleep every day, so how can I have so much free time to sing every night? But you, will you be able to go to Datong this time smoothly?"

When talking about official affairs, Huitong put away his smile and asked Gu Dayong to convey the words: "Datong is an important town. If General Zhuang had not been commended by the court for his great victory, he would have been guarding Datong, but his official position has risen to a higher level. This time, I and Eunuch Gu would not have been so blatantly building the Xichang branch in Xuanfu. However, there were only a dozen people in total, saying that it was a detective, but it was actually just the first time that the representative Xichang leader extended his capital."

"You're right. Gu Dayong looked rough, but in fact he was a sensible person. This time he went to Datong, he was more hiding right and wrong than expanding his power, so it would be enough to do this."

Xu Xun tapped the handrail gently with his fingers and suddenly asked, "How about the person I asked you to take me back?"

"He was locked up in the small dark room for a month, but he was half dead after pulling it out. He was very honest when he came back this journey. He even heard a few words when he arrived at the West Factory, but he thought it was the end of his strength." At this point, Huitong leaned forward and asked with interest, "I said, "Your uncle, this kid is a serious prince. If you arrested him, he said that he would let him fight in the internal struggle and not report to the court, but why did the emperor hide it? And he was so careful about it. What are you planning to do? Are you planning to pry out the reality of the Tartar sweat court from his mouth?"

"I didn't take him back. I told the emperor that if the emperor is intrigued, he has to ask you to take him back in advance, isn't this a problem? Now that the dust has settled, such a person who goes to Beijing without knowing it, even if the Tartars have any details, this is the safest thing to do. As for prying open his mouth, there is no need to. He will say anything after locking him up for a year or two, but the situation on the grassland changes rapidly and is outdated at that time. I keep him because of his special identity and will come in handy when doing certain things in the future."

Huitong was very interested in Xu Xun's statements, and immediately asked: "Some of the things Xiao uncle said are..."

"Although the coalition forces of Yongsebu and Ordos are of extraordinary strength, if Dayan Khan gathers the army in anger, their strength will not be that good enough. If I guess correctly, the Khan Court must be using the banner of revenge of the Second Prince. If we try to send the Second Prince to a place..."

“Where?”

"I heard that now Dayan Khan, who is sitting in the Khan position, is full of thoughts about restoring the glory of Genghis Khan back then and subsiding all tribes on the grassland under the rule of the Golden Family. Therefore, except for those generals who are loyal to him, the other tribal lords have many different intentions, especially those who have always been in marriage with the Golden Family and have very strong strength. Among them, the son-in-law of the Khan in front of him must be the least willing to hand over the territory to others."

These are the situations Xu Xun had inquired on the grasslands, like Lao Chaihuo and Shen Ying. Seeing Huitong's thoughtful eyes flashing, obviously also calculating quickly, he said again: "I heard that Da Yankhan has eleven sons. In our Central Plains, three or four princes will fight for the throne. This grassland must be no exception. The second prince was originally Jinong, and his "death" position must be in the hands of others. When he faced him again, he would have to fight. Of course, if there was no fire screen and our help, he would be defeated and would not be able to explain how he went back. It would be so easy to regain his foothold."

"What uncle means is to help him compete for the throne?"

"Wrong, we do business with them." Xu Xun saw Huitong stunned, and he couldn't help but smile, "Those Tartars have the most cattle, horses and sheep, but there are few things to enjoy, and tea and so on must rely on the inner city, so they all want to trade with the Ming Dynasty. Opening this opening will naturally have corresponding benefits for limited people. In addition, whether it is Jinyiwei, the east factory and the west factory, the fingers are all in it, and they know almost nothing about the military situation in the north. My purpose is to lay out an intelligence network in the north. Therefore, I plan to propose to the emperor to build another detective yamen to specialize in external affairs when the time is right!"

Speaking of this, if Huitong doesn't understand it, he will be a complete fool. Xu Xun now seems to be a hot newcomer, but whether it is Pingbei Bo or the former army governor's office, they all sound good, but the title of the avant-garde of the government army is still incomplete! Xu Xun had rejected the Jinyiwei's duties before. The only way is to form a new one outside the existing yamen and hold it firmly in his hands.

"My uncle is so courageous!"

Xu Xun naturally would not be happy to hear Huitong's flattery. After all, grasping a yamen that he can really control is the foundation for his position. So he just smiled and said, "People often say that we wise people are internal strife and external outsiders. The reason is very simple. Our people often put a lot of effort into inquiries and analysis about their own people, but they are often careless about outsiders and just want to close the door and make peace in the world, but they don't know that they know themselves and their enemies will be invincible. If they want to be not an outsider, how can they be blinded with their eyes?"

"How many people do I recommend?"

"No need for the time being. This is not as good as the Jinyiwei and the East Factory and West Factory. You have to cultivate your manpower slowly. If you manage the West Factory well, you can't leave Gu Dayong without you."

Soon, he reached an agreement with Huitong on Urus Borot, asking the Xichang Factory to close the people for another month. When he learned that Gu Dayong was interested in building a Xichang branch in Xuanfu, he even agreed to help Xiang Waijia write a letter to Zhang Jun. Until Huitong was sent out, he attracted Jin Liu.

"Go to the Princess Renhe Dachang's Mansion to invite Qi Jiliang, then to the Duke Dingguo's Mansion to invite Xu Yanche, and let them come here, and I said I have important matters to explain to them."
