Chapter five hundred and sixty third expulsion
Chapter 563: Evicted
Among Zhang Haotian and his group, no one had ever been to the Botgeqi tribe. He just walked towards the north side of Mount Choba and walked through three lakes with a radius of several kilometers. It was the settlement of the Botgeqi tribe.
Going north, walking through the mountains, wherever you pass, there are continuous hills. After walking for a long time, you can't see a figure. You should know that Mongolia has a land area of 1.57 million square kilometers, which is equivalent to two major provinces in China. However, its population is only more than 2 million, and more than one million live in Ulaanbaatar. There are too many places with sparsely populated areas, even more so, such as Choba Mountain. In comparison, the forbidden area of the Holy Mausoleum seems to be more lively.
As we move forward, there is gradually snow on the ground. In the mountains, the temperature is naturally much lower than that in the plains, so it has naturally snowed a long time ago.
The more you go inside, the higher the mountain, the thicker the snow. However, there is a clear coordinate guiding Zhang Haotian and others forward, that is, the footprints with horse hooves extending forward rows in the snow, and it can be seen that some people come and go frequently on this road.
As it was almost evening, the terrain in front began to become smoother, and I saw a lake like a blue mirror, which was even clearer than the "Geriltu Lake" outside the Mamu Valley. There are too many snow-capped mountains in Qiaoba Mountain all year round, so these waters naturally flow down from the snow-capped mountains.
When Zhang Haotian and others saw this Huzi, they were all happy. They were about to whip up and continue moving forward. At this moment, they heard the rushing sound of a horn from a hill on the right side of the Huzi.
Listening to the sound of the horn, Zhang Haotian knew that it must be the sentries of the Botgeki tribe who discovered them and was unwilling to provoke a dispute, so he pointed the "Toyakin Whip" to the ground, and all the Tatarot tribes immediately stopped the horse's mouth and stopped in place.
After a while, a team of cavalrymen rushed from the snow in front of them and soon arrived in front of them, but there were about thirty strong men wearing leather jackets and leather hats.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his forties, dark skin and bearded rode to the front, and shouted loudly with his eyes full of vigilance: "Who are you? What are you here to do?"
Haninohai also rode forward and pointed at Zhang Haotian: "We are from the Tatarot tribe. This is our new Tatarot king, Hadan Batel. You Botgeki tribe are branches of the Tatarot tribe. Why don't you come and pay a visit?"
The Botgeki tribe obviously knew the past history of their tribe. When he heard Haninohai say this, the middle-aged man's face suddenly showed a look of surprise. He stared at the fox hat and mink hair, holding a golden whip, graceful and majestic Zhang Haotian. After a while, he said: "The Botgeki tribe has nothing to do with the Tatarot tribe. Even if the Tatarot King comes, what if you wait, I'll let someone inform the prince."
As he said this, he gave an order, and a cavalry turned his horse's head and galloped towards the rear of Huzi.
Zhang Haotian knew that the middle-aged man was the leader of this group of people, so he pointed the "Toyakin Whip" at him and asked, "What's your name?"
The middle-aged man didn't want to answer, but when he saw Zhang Haotian's majestic attitude, he couldn't help but say: "My name is Sorrie."
Zhang Haotian nodded, and then said, "Solri, what is the current prince of your Botgeki tribe called?"
Nathorri couldn't help but answered according to his words: "Our prince is called Tumen Baoyin."
"Tumen Baoyin" means "longevity and blessing" in Mongolian language. Zhang Haotian nodded again and said, "When did he ascend the throne?"
This time, Thorri finally controlled himself, hummed, and stopped answering his words.
Seeing Saurri's appearance, Zhang Haotian smiled slightly and stopped asking more questions. However, he could already feel that the Botgeki tribe was wary of the Tatarot tribe. If he came here, he would be extremely difficult to persuade Tumen Baoyin to send troops to reinforce the Tatarot tribe.
After waiting for forty minutes, he saw the Botgeki man who had just gone to communicate with him, and came to Saurri, and said a few words in a low voice. Saurri nodded and said to Zhang Haotian: "Prince Hadanbatel, please come in. But you must remove all the weapons you carry."
The other party was vigilant and nothing was wrong. Zhang Haotian agreed and unbuttoned the rifle and the waist knife first and handed it to Solri. Haninohai and others naturally did the same.
As Solri moved forward, not long after, I saw the second lake, which was still as clear as a mirror. But when I arrived at the third lake, I saw that it was larger than the two lakes in front, about five or six kilometers in radius, but there were no fishing boats on the lake. At the end of the lake, there was a fan-shaped mountain, and the mountains were covered with snow, like a smaller Mount Fuji. At the foot of the mountain, there were large tents spread out on both sides of the lake, with at least tens of thousands of yurts, which looked spectacular.
Zhang Haotian knew that this was the settlement of Botgeqi's tribe. Uenqi said that there were tens of thousands of people in Botgeqi's tribe thirty or forty years ago. These years have passed and they are naturally more prosperous. This time, he only needs to borrow 3,000 cavalry. Even if the task is completed, he can go back to the Shengling Prison Zone to fight for life and death with Aldun.
Solri led him to the group of yurts on the right. At this time, a cold wind blew, and Zhang Haotian couldn't help but chill. To be honest, it was just early winter, and there was a continuous drizzle in the Shengling Prison Zone, but it was not cold during the day. But here, even if he was dressed very thickly, he could feel the biting cold. I guess the Tatarot soldiers he brought him felt almost the same. I really don't know how cold it will be in the severe winter.
At this moment, they rushed past the lake, and then Zhang Haotian saw that the lake had begun to form a layer of thin ice. Obviously, the temperature here was lower than the previous two lakes.
Seeing this, he sighed secretly that the settlement of Botgeqi tribe is quite good, but it is undoubtedly short in summer and long in winter, the climate is not pleasant, and it is not suitable for the shepherd of livestock. It can be imagined that Zhuogetu led some of the Tatarot tribes to establish Botgeqi tribes. In order to avoid any contact between the people and the Tatarot tribes, he chose the rare Choba Mountain area. In the whole area, it seems that only here can meet the two conditions for settlement, with good water sources and wide and flat terrain. As for the climate too cold, as time goes by, the people can only adapt slowly.
Before thinking, I had already followed Solly and others into the yurt group. Outside the yurts, children were playing with each other from time to time. When they saw strangers coming in, they all showed curious eyes. It was obvious that few outsiders from Botgeki's tribe came.
After walking slowly through the yurt for about ten minutes, he arrived outside a yurt, but saw tall and majestic, several times larger than other yurts. And there was a group of men with scimitars standing outside, so naturally the main account of Botgeqi's troops.
When we arrived at the main tent, everyone dismounted. At this moment, the team of men came over. The leader was a burly and swearing: "Hold up all your hands, we need to check if there are any weapons."
The Tatarot tribe had handed all the weapons to Saurri just now. He was a little annoyed when the people from Botgeki tribe asked them to raise their hands to check. However, Zhang Haotian immediately waved his hand to signal them to do as he did. It seemed that the Tumen Baoyin was very cautious, but it was urgent to follow the customs of the countryside.
The middle-aged man had already seen that Zhang Haotian was the leader of the group, so he came to search for his body carefully. After a while, he did not find any weapons. Then he waved his hand and said, "Go in."
Saurri agreed and let Zhang Haotian and himself enter the main account.
As soon as I entered the main tent, I saw at least three or four hundred square meters inside, but the ground was covered with thick and soft carpets, and some decorations such as beast heads and gods were hung on all sides, which were decorated in a magnificent manner.
At this time, Zhang Haotian's eyes were already staring at the main case directly in front of him, where a man in his fifties, with a beard and wearing a white fox fur coat was half lying on a chair covered with tiger skin. Next to him was a woman in her forties. The woman had a fair face and was quite decent. She was wearing a red leather jacket, which looked very bright. I don't know which animal fur was made of.
Zhang Haotian understood that these two people must be Tumen Baoyin and his eldest princess. Looking around the tables on both sides, they saw five people sitting on the left and six people sitting on the right, all of which were middle-aged and elderly men wearing luxurious leather jackets, undoubtedly the nobles in Botge's tribe who held real power.
After walking a distance, Solri covered her chest and bowed to the man lying on the tiger skin and said, "Prince, this is Prince Hardan Batel of the Tatarot tribe."
Zhang Haotian stood behind Saulli, only twenty meters away from Tumen Baoyin. There were more than ten candles in the main tent, which was very bright. Zhang Haotian could clearly see that the leader of Botge's troops was thin and pale, and he was actually sick. No wonder he was lying half-lying on the tiger-skin chair.
The Tumen Baoyin said "um", opened his godless eyes and looked at Zhang Haotian for a while, and then said weakly: "Are you the son of Hadan Zhaorige?"
Zhang Haotian knew that his father had come to Botgeqi's tribe, and although this Tumen Baoyin was not the prince at that time, he undoubtedly had seen it. He nodded and said, "Yes, Hadan Zhaorige is my father."
Tumen Baoyin said again: "Didn't you go to guard the tomb for the Holy Ancestor? Do you want to call us again? Hadan Zhaorige told you whether it was. At that time, we gave him a very clear reply. When the ancestor Zhuogetu left, he made a great oath and never returned to the Tatarot tribe."
Zhang Haotian nodded and said, "My father was killed by the enemy and has passed away. I have also heard of Zhuogetu's great-uncle, but the Tatarot tribe is now facing a great crisis and is on the verge of extinction, so I came to Botgeki tribe. I hope you can lend a helping hand, your prince."
Who seemed to have no interest in asking Zhang Haotian what was going on when he heard this Tumen Baoyin, and immediately shook his head and said, "Didn't you tell me? The Botge tribe has no relationship with the Tatarot tribe for a long time. Whether the Tatarot tribe is prosperous or extinct, that's your business."
Zhang Haotian was about to say something else when he saw the middle-aged woman who had been sitting next to Baoyin of Tumen suddenly said in a sharp voice: "When Su De conspired to usurp the throne and seized the throne of Tatarot King of Zhuogetu's ancestors. The people of the Tatarot tribe followed him, and they were all rebellious. Now they are about to be exterminated. Haha, it's really a spirit in the immortal heaven, retribution, retribution."
Hearing such harsh words, Zhang Haotian felt angry and knew that the middle-aged woman must be the eldest princess of the Tatarot tribe, but he deliberately did not look at her, but looked at Tumen Baoyin and said, "Who is she?"
Tumen Baoyin said: "This is my eldest princess Barina."
Zhang Haotian's eyes were still staring at him and said, "The Mongolians have set rules since the Holy Ancestor. Unless the male protagonist of the tribe dies and there is no heir for the time being, women can interfere in tribal affairs. Prince Baoyin of Tumen, you can't admit that you are a member of the Tatarot tribe. Do you even don't recognize the Holy Ancestor and don't want to abide by the rules he set?"
The Tumen Baoyin seemed to feel that she was in a loss and could not speak for a long time. The eldest princess Barina, who was sitting beside him, screamed again and said, "Hadanbatel, this is not your Tatarot tribe. What should we do? You don't need to point fingers. You are not welcome here. You can go back immediately. If the people of the Tatarot tribe dare to come back in the future, the Botgeki tribe will never be polite."
With just a few words, Zhang Haotian had already heard that Barina was a powerful woman, and his heart suddenly became tight. He was not afraid of Barina, but was just opened his mouth and was expelled. The purpose of this trip to Chobashan was about to be wiped out, and the Tatarot tribe had to face the fate of withdrawing from the Shengling restricted area.
Just as he was thinking, he heard Barina shouting, and the two guards standing beside him had already walked to Zhang Haotian, but wanted to forcibly expel him.
However, at this moment, a figure stood up from behind the table on the right and shouted: "Slow down, don't let King Tatarot go out for now."
When Zhang Haotian heard the sound, he saw that the man standing up was wearing a black leather robe, with a big figure, a square face, purple-black, but gray-bearded hair, and was at least over 60 years old.
Baoyin of Tumen didn't say anything, and then Barina said in a sharp voice: "Master Shatle, what do you have to say?"
Shatele did not go to see her, walked out of the table, covered her chest and bowed, towards the Tumen Baoyin, who looked more and more depressed and was yawning, saying, "Prince, thirty-three years ago, Prince Hadan Zhaorige came to our Botgeqi tribe. The old prince sent me to receive it. Although our two tribes had old gaps, they were in line with each other. This is an unavoidable fact. Although the old prince followed the ancestral teachings and would never return to the Tatarot tribe, he had specially ordered me to respect and polite to the Tatarot tribe. So last time I treated him and the princes who accompanied him well. In addition to returning, the conversation was also very enjoyable. Now the new Tatarot king is coming. It is already evening. There is a north wind outside, and it is probably going to snow heavily. Walking on the mountain road at night. If there is any inconvenience, please ask him to stay here for a night before leaving."
Tumen Baoyin listened, and hesitated on her face. She turned her head and looked at Balina and said, "Princess, the last time Prince Hadan Zhaorige came, the father did have a good hospitality. It's so late now, and it may snow heavily, so they can't get out of Chobashan even if they go back. Can you see if they can stay for one night?"
Barina had not answered yet, and a man stood up behind the table on the left side of the main account and shouted: "Since Botge's tribe has already clearly defined the relationship with the Tatarot tribe, he still cares about him, King Tatarot, Prince, don't listen to Shatle's narration. I think he got the benefits of Hadan Zhaorige last time, and then spoke to the Tatarot tribe."
At this time, the man who stood up was a middle-aged man in his thirties, with a strong figure and a distinctive outline between his facial features. He was a rare handsome man among the Mongolians.
