Soon, after thinking for a few days, Lin Danhan handed a letter to Jinonon's brain: "You immediately send someone to hand over this letter to Jinon Leren of the Xitumot tribe, telling him that we need to borrow his way to Xuanfu, and he must agree! As for the reason, Ben Khan has written it very clearly on it, and I hope he has the interests of our entire golden family in his heart!"

Lin Danhan said, and said to other Chahar nobles around him: "For the interests of my Huang family, from now on, Ben Khan will no longer directly unify the other Tatar tribes by force, but will try to protect our Tatar strength as much as possible by advocating and forming alliances. Through the recent understanding of the south, the Ming Kingdom now seems to be different from the Ming Kingdom before. This is a Ming Kingdom that has begun to actively expand and has greater ambitions. Their purpose is not only to land, but also to our population, and even to let our immortal heaven completely disappear from this world!"

Lin Danhan said with a serious expression: "This is a terrible thing! I hope Leren of the Xitumot tribe can understand this truth! We must prevent this from happening. If they are short-sighted and want to trade with the Ming Kingdom, exchange horses and sheep for Ming Kingdom goods, and even are willing to let their slaves escape and become the people of the Ming Kingdom, and forget that the knife in their hands can be cut into mutton and killed people, then Ben Khan can only destroy these depraved people who have no fighting spirit and are not worthy of being the descendants of my Golden Family for the benefit of the entire Yuan Empire!"

"The Khan is right. Now the herdsmen on the grassland have begun to flee to the pass. They would rather be the people of Ming and betray my golden family. The behaviors shown by Ming now seem to want to eat up our land and population, and we must react to this."

That drag responded.

...

"According to this, the behaviors shown by the Ming Kingdom today are indeed worthy of our vigilance, and we are willing to use the truth."

After seeing the envoy sent by Lin Danhan here, Leren frowned and pondered for a while after reading Lin Danhan's letter, he then made the choice he thought was the wisest.

The Tumote tribe was the tribe of Altan in the past. Later, the entire Tumote part was in two parts, among which the part in Liaodong was called the Dongtumote tribe, and now the area in Datong and Xuanfu was called the Xitumote tribe.

Now, if Lin Danhan wants to plunder Xuanfu to the Datong area, he has to pass by the territory of the Xitumot tribe.

Lin Danhan originally planned to directly annex the Xitumot tribe to achieve the goal of unifying his own Yuan Empire.

But now because of the strength shown by the Ming Dynasty, he decided to adopt an indirect way to achieve his goal of unifying the Yuan Empire, and use his main purpose to curb the expansion of the Ming Dynasty.

Lin Danhan is obviously a person who is very sensitive to the situation during the battle between countries.

Leren was not much stupid, and realized that the Ming Empire was different from before, and when people like him needed to be more vigilant, he decisively agreed to Lin Danhan's request.

But because Leren relies on the Ming Dynasty economically and does not want to be the first target of the Ming Dynasty's revenge, he made another decision after agreeing to Lin Danhan.

"Once the people of the Chahar tribe break through the pass, they will immediately send people to inform the Ming court, saying that we did not agree to the Chahar tribe pass through our pastoral area, but the Chahar tribe forcibly defeated our army and went directly to Datong and Xuanfu. We can only send people to hurriedly inform the Emperor Yu, and hope that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty could forgive our faults. In addition, we will give another thousand taels of gold to Zhang Butang, the governor of Xuanda, hoping that they can help us talk."

Leren therefore ordered his subordinates in this way and said, "There are few civil officials in the Han Dynasty who are not rich, and they should be able to speak for us."

...

On this side, after Lin Danhan learned that Leren had agreed to lend him the lent to him, he decisively led his cavalry to invade Xuanfu.

At this time, Zhang Fengxiang, the Governor of Xuanda, also received a secret letter from Lelun brought by the merchant and a gift of one thousand taels of gold.

Therefore, Zhang Fengxiang immediately said to his confidant Yang Wencong: "Immediately write a letter to the court, and it is said that according to the informant, Lin Danhan raised 100,000 troops. After defeating the Xitumot tribe, he suddenly invaded Xuanfu and asked the court to send troops to reinforce immediately."

After saying that, Zhang Fengxiang said to his other confidant Ai Wenkui: "Just go to Zhangjiakou Fort and inform the wealthy businessmen there."

This Aiwenkui took the order and left.

The border line of Daming is very long, and the Xuanfu area alone has a Great Wall that stretches for thousands of miles. Therefore, it is easy for Lin Danhan's army to find a section of the Great Wall to break through. After all, the main function of the Great Wall is actually to play an economic blockade. In terms of military affairs, it cannot completely prevent the nomadic people from moving south.

After breaking through the pass, Lin Danhan's troops came to Zhangjiakou Fort, not far from the Great Wall.

Yue Qijie, the deputy envoy in charge of defending Zhangjiakou Fort, had summoned all the civil and military officials and wealthy merchants in the fort, and said, "The Tatars came so fast that although we had sent people to Xuanfu to ask for help, we were not too late to wait for reinforcements now. We need to defend Zhangjiakou Fort by ourselves. In addition to the officers and soldiers, each family mobilized all the servants, donated some money and food to defend the city together. After the matter was finished, I will ask for merit from the court."

At this time, the guerrilla Xu Dingguo suddenly stood up and said, "Since that's the case, we might as well surrender. Perhaps we can save our lives and defend Zhangjiakou Fort to the death. What if the city is destroyed and all the Tatars are slaughtered?"

Yue Qijie glared at Xu Dingguo: "Your words are the words of a real man? I want my official to open the city and surrender unless I kill him now!"

"That's going to offend, Yue Daotai!"

Xu Dingguo suddenly pulled out his short knife in his sleeve and stabbed Yue Qijie directly.

Yue Qijie was shocked, looked at the knife that was buried in his belly, and then looked at Xu Dingguo: "You!"

"Please don't blame the Taotai. We are all businessmen, so are General Xu. We can only do this."

At this time, a wealthy businessman who called Zhang Yongfa smiled and said, then he looked at Huang Liangyu, a Jinyiwei household stationed in Zhangjiakou to manage the Border Trade Department, and said, "Huang Baihu! Please don't blame me!"

"ah!"

Before Huang Liangyu finished speaking, he was directly strangled by someone. When he looked back, he was a guard next to Yue Qijie, who had obviously been bribed long ago and was strangling him with iron wire.

Huang Liangyu kicked his legs and said, "You, you profiteers!"

At the same time, Xu Dingguo had already drawn out his knife, then stabbed Yue Qijie again, then pulled it out, and stabbed another knife. After this, Yue Qijie died of more than ten swords.

Lin Danhan was also surprised by this. He did not expect that the wealthy businessmen in Zhangjiakou Castle cooperated so much and took the initiative to send people to surrender, but asked not to plunder their property.

Lin Danhan therefore agreed to their conditions, and welcomed the wealthy businessmen of Xu Dingguo and Zhangjiakou Fort, and successfully entered Zhangjiakou Fort.
