Chapter 15 Dare to ask who is Khan

Temujin left Jamuka at night, and at dawn, more than a hundred people rolled in behind him.Among these people, there were three people who received the most attention from Temujin.The first one is Kubilai, a warrior from the Balulasi tribe, who is as powerful as an ox, piercing Yang with a hundred steps; the second is Subotai, a warrior from the Wuliangha tribe. . The two left Jamuka purely for personal reasons. When Kubi came to seek refuge with Jamuka, he brought his incomparably graceful wife with him.Subotai was very disgusted with this kind of thing, and dissuaded Jamuka: If you want your dog to look after the home, don't destroy its nest.

Jamuka destroyed Kubilai's nest without hesitation: he took Kubilai's wife by force.At that time, Temujin happened to be in the joint camp of Jammu, and he expressed deep sympathy for Kublai's experience.Kublai had already embraced the heart of leaving the adulterer Jamuka, and he and Temujin established a deep friendship, and Subotai was also very disappointed with Jamuka's behavior.Coinciding with this opportunity, the two came arm in arm. The third person is Korchi from the Ba'a Neighborhood, which is rich in "shaman". "Shaman" is a person who is extremely powerful in the Shamanism of the Mongolian religion, and can understand the will of the Longevity Heaven.Whether it is Hebul Khan, Anbahai Khan or Hutula Khan, there must be a "shaman" talking about it when they take the oath to prove that their Khan's position is granted by Changshengtian.Among the Mongolians who believe in shamanism, nothing can be done without the participation of "shaman".

In Jamuka's joint venture, Kuoerchi and Temujin had frequent exchanges. The shrewd Kuoerchi had already seen through Temujin's psychology. It is well known that Jamuka wanted to be a Khan, and Temujin was the Khan's Desire is a hundred times stronger than Jamuhe, but he is silent. Ideals expand with increasing strength.A few years ago, Temujin's ideals were limited to satisfying food and clothing.Now, his ideal is to be a khan.Everything has to be done step by step, including ideals. Kuoerchi, who has studied "people" for half his life, is 100% sure that Temujin is more suitable to be a khan than Jamuka. Almost all shamans have investment vision. He rushed here to show his professionalism.

He said to Temujin: "Longevity has appeared, and I am not allowed to follow Jamuka. In my dream, I saw a big snow-white cow coming from afar, circling Jamuka's tent, and broke it with its thick horns. At one corner of the tent, he lifted the earth with his hoof, uttered words, and shouted at Jamuka, "Give me back my horn!" Immediately afterwards, another white steer (steer) without horns stood upright like a human, holding it high. The wooden stakes of Jamuka’s tent roared after Temujin and your convoy came, and it also spit out people’s words and said to you, “Heaven and earth have discussed it. I want you Temujin to be the Khan of Mongolia. Look at me.” pillar, this is Mongolia, and I dedicate it to you.'”

Temujin looked up at the sky piously, then looked at the language master with grateful eyes, and said, "You are sent by the Longevity." Huo'er was very proud. He and Temujin were two grasshoppers on the same rope. If they wanted to succeed, they had to recognize each other and cooperate closely.There is no doubt that his profession will immediately bring him huge rewards. He asked Temujin: "If you become the Khan of Mongolia, how will you repay me, the messenger of Changshengtian?" Temujin replied: "If the news you bring is reliable, I will make you an official of ten thousand households, rule ten thousand herdsmen, and command ten thousand soldiers."

Huo'erchi was not very satisfied with this reward, he first considered his major needs: "I also want thirty beauties, the most beautiful ones." Temujin agreed. He also considered his industry prospects: "I hope you can regard shamanism as the state religion, respect us, and take care of us." Temujin said: "I believe in the power and compassion of Changshengtian, so I also believe in you intermediaries who help me connect with Changshengtian." Satisfied, Huoerchi returned to the tent and anxiously waited for Temujin to finalize the date of his inauguration as khan.

A few days later, the second group of rebels from Jamu's joint venture arrived. The status and status of this group of people are completely different from the first group of people, they are all powerful factions - they not only came by themselves, but also brought a "Gulieyan". The list of these heavyweights is as follows: Temujin's fourth uncle Dalitai; Temujin's cousin Kuchaer; Khutura Khan's son Altan; out.Even people from the Zadalan clan of Jamuka's own family came with their own "Gu Lieyan". While Temujin was excited, he suddenly felt a trace of panic, and Korchi came running in time.

Seeing that Tie Muzhen had a lot of troubles, he asked: "Your strength has grown, why are you unhappy?" Temujin seemed to be speaking to him, but also seemed to be talking to himself: "The people who came are all Mongolian princes, and they are my relatives. In terms of status, they are all higher than me." Huo'erchi smiled, like a wizard laughing inhumanly.He said: "Don't worry about that. Since they have come to join you, they can't possibly want to replace you. They left Jamuka because they liked you." What Huo'erchi said is correct.In the eyes of these powerful factions, Jamuka is indeed outstanding, but he has many negative personalities, arrogance and arrogance, and no sense of compassion or respect for others.He's not a relationship guru, just a self-centered jerk.Kublai was the witness and victim of Jamuka's negative character.

Temujin was thoughtful, he looked towards the edge of the grassland, and said to himself: "Will they recommend me?" Huoerchi smiled and said: "It will definitely." However, he changed the subject, "Now that our strength has increased greatly, this place is no longer suitable for us to live in, we should move." Temujin thought for a while, nodded and said, "Indeed, the pastures in this place are disappearing, we should move to a bigger place." A few days later, Temujin led his powerful "Gu Lieyan" to "Lan Lake" in the upper valley of the Kherlen River.

Everyone knew that something big was going to happen here, because people saw Temujin's adviser Korchi going in and out of the tents of those powerful factions all the time. When the shaman walked into Temujin's tent, tired and half dead, with his head held high, people were convinced that something big was about to happen.Sure enough, a day later, Temujin sat on the hillside with those Mongolian princes and held a meeting. Temujin was the first to speak. He said: "Since the death of our great Khan Hutura, we Mongols are like sand in the desert, scattered everywhere, like a group of flying dragons, without the first dragon. The severance of the Khan system, all Mongols are heartbroken. We should hold high the banner of our ancestors, unite the Mongols tightly, and no longer be oppressed and bullied by other ethnic groups. We must stick together the severed Khan system, we Mongols Have a sweat!"

The chief of the Juerqin Department, Xue Tia Beqi, followed Temujin's words and said loudly: "Yes, we Mongols must have a sweat!" His comrade-in-arms, Tai Chu, roared: "There must be a Khan!" Temujin looked at the crowd and said, "You are all my uncles, the princes of Mongolia. You are obliged to create well-being for the Mongolians and elect a khan who has the ability to lead the people to a better tomorrow." Tai Chu jumped up and said, "Do you still have to choose, it's just you." Temujin hurriedly waved his hand and looked at Altan, the son of Kutura Khan: "It stands to reason that you should inherit your father's position and carry his banner." Al Tan shook his head, almost shaking his head off.He said: "What is your reasoning? Our Mongolian rule is to hold a khuriltai assembly, and the members of the assembly say whoever is elected will be chosen." Temujin looked for the eyes of his cousin Huchaer again, and Huchaer jumped up: "Don't look at me, I'm here to join you." The fourth uncle replied: "If you still think of us as your uncles, then you should do your part to thank you. We all strongly support you." Huchaer shook his arms in the air and said, "Yes, we all support you." Al Tan stood up, very respectful, and said to everyone present: "Actually, as a royal family, we are very unqualified. It is our dereliction of duty to let the people of the clan fall apart. We have long thought about electing a Khan. We originally wanted to elect Jamuka, but he doesn't have your advantages of being reasonable, fair, modest and polite, and you have outstanding abilities. Besides, his Zadalan clan's blood is not pure, and you belong to the Qiyan clan, an orthodox royal family. So, you So don’t refuse. In my opinion, today’s meeting is considered a Khuriltai meeting, and we all voted unanimously to elect you as the Khan of our Mongolians.” This passage is very true. For a long time, these princes really wanted to make Jamuka the Mongolian Khan, but after getting along with each other for a long time, they found that Jamuka did not have this qualification, especially when Temujin and Jamuka merged When standing shoulder to shoulder, the good and the bad are judged. Temujin was convinced that these people supported him sincerely, so he no longer shied away, and said happily: "Okay, I will lead everyone to create a brand new Mongolian world." These people all stood up, as if they had rehearsed a long time ago, and said: "I will make you a sweat. If you are a sweat, I will be your vanguard and rush to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Let the beautiful women captured Bring all the horses and foals to your yurt; bring the good horses and foals to you. If you go hunting, I will drive the prey for you. If we disobey your orders during the battle, you can take them away For our family wealth, wives and concubines, cut off our heads and throw them on the ground to feed the dogs; on the day of peace, if we break our vows, you can drive us away from our relatives, and abandon me in the desert wilderness!" This passage may be the oath of the Mongols, or even all the nomadic tribes on the Mongolian plateau when they elected the Great Khan.It reveals the relationship between the monarch and his ministers in wartime and peacetime in nomadic countries, and it also reveals that Temujin's pronouncing Khan this time is not fundamentally different from other people's pronouncing Khan.At this moment, the only difference is probably in Khan's name. Temujin was determined to be Khan, and a Khan ceremony was required.Just the day before the sweating ceremony, a mysterious person led seven people into Temujin's tent. When Temujin saw this person, he was both surprised and delighted.This person was exactly Montrique who abandoned them at the beginning.Monrique is in good spirits, and his seven sons are all alive and well.Temujin welcomed their return graciously, which is Temujin's strongest advantage, as long as the political situation requires it, he can ignore the past.That is the source of his ability to draw his enemies to his service like a magnet.His magnanimity made Menglik very moved and ashamed. Perhaps to make up for his mistakes, he specially introduced his fourth son, Kukuochu, to Temujin.According to him, the son was a par excellence in shamanism, imaginative and resourceful. Kukuo raised his head high, and said proudly to Temujin: "I heard that you are sweating, Changshengtian sent me to give you a gift." Huo'erchi sneered beside him.Kukuchu didn't seem to see this colleague at all, and he said to Temujin: "The Changshengtian said that people in the past called Khan all vulgar Guer Khan (Khan of Khans), you are the sweat of the world, you must There must be a name that is novel, resounding, and thought-provoking." Temujin waited for his novel, loud and thought-provoking khan name. Kuo Kuo shook his big head rhythmically, and paused every word: "Genghis Khan!"
