"Have you seen Ombu?"
In Guihua City, a group of unarmed Mongolian soldiers asked questions to everyone they met on the street.
"Who is Omubu?" the Han people in the city asked back.
"Stop talking so much bullshit! If we can't find him, everyone in the city will die!" The Mongolian soldier continued to move forward, cursing.
"Ah?" The people were horrified and immediately ran around shouting Omubu's name.
At this time, Omubu was hiding at home and shivering.
He was sleeping when the Ming army attacked the city.
The vibration and sound caused by the explosion of 8,000 kilograms of gunpowder frightened him so much that he jumped up from the bed.
Just as he was inquiring about the cause of the explosion, news came that the Ming army had attacked Guihua City.
As the former leader of the Tumed tribe, Ombu's first reaction was to escape.
Looking at the chaotic scene on the street and the deserters running around, Omubu was afraid that he would be caught up in the crowd and trampled to death.
After thinking it over again and again, he decided not to run away and took refuge at home.
After an unknown amount of time, he vaguely heard someone calling his name.
"It's bad," Omubu slapped his thigh, "someone wants me to take the blame!"
After coming to this conclusion, Omubu hurriedly packed his luggage and planned to escape during the chaos.
As soon as he climbed over the courtyard wall, he was surrounded by a group of Mongolian soldiers before his feet even touched the ground.
"What...what are you going to do?" Omubu's voice trembled.
The Mongolian soldier ignored him and looked not far away.
Not far away stood a few of Omubu's neighbors, with whom he had a very good relationship on weekdays.
Several neighbors nodded at the same time: "That's him, he is Omubu!"
"It's settled!" The Mongolian soldier carried Ombu up without further ado.
Omubu was completely stunned. After he came to his senses, he began to explain: "You have the wrong person. I am not Omubu!"
"No doubt about it, it's you!"
"I really am not!"
"You can be!"
No matter how Ombu argued, the Mongolian soldiers remained unmoved and carried him out of the city as quickly as possible.
Along the way.
He saw the broken city walls, panicked civilians, disarmed Mongolian soldiers, and countless Ming troops standing on the city walls.
After arriving between the two armies, Omubu was gently placed on the ground.
Omubu took a deep breath and looked at Guluge and Hanggao.
Before being demoted to commoners, Guluge and Hanggao were both his subordinates.
Guluge took two quick steps to Omubu's side, and then brought him to Lu Daqi, "Governor Lu, this is the heir of King Shunyi!"
Then he whispered in Omubu's ear: "This is Lord Lu Daqi, the governor of the three borders of Shaanxi in the Ming Dynasty!"
Lu Daqi stared at Omubu for a while, feeling a little disappointed.
For some reason, he failed to see the qualities that a leader should have in Omubu's eyes.
Even if he is put back in power, can he manage the Tumed tribe well?
Or...can he lead the tribe to fight against the Jiannu together with the Ming Dynasty?
It would be best if you can.
If not, he would suggest to the court to replace people!
With this question in mind, Lu Daqi slowly said, "Emubu."
"Here!" Omubu bowed deeply and respectfully to Lu Daqi.
"Do you still remember your father's identity?" Lu Daqi asked.
identity?
Omubu was stunned at first, then he looked up at the sky with a deep look in his eyes, "I will remember!"
"In the ninth year of the Wanli reign, my father was appointed as the Associate Commander by the Ming court."
"In the 17th year of the Wanli reign, my father inherited the title of Dragon and Tiger General."
"In the 41st year of the Wanli reign, my father officially inherited the throne of Shunyi!"
"Well," Lu Daqi was quite satisfied with the answer and continued to ask, "I want to ask you, why did you surrender to the Jiannu?"
"To reply to the Governor, when the Jiannu invaded the West with great force, the Tumed tribe was unable to confront them head-on, so they could only pretend to surrender and make other plans! As a result, the Jiannu learned the truth, and I was imprisoned because of it."
"Is what Ombu said true?" Lu Daqi looked at Guluge, Hanggao and other surrendered Mongolian generals.
"It's true."
"He didn't lie."
The Mongolian generals present nodded one after another.
"Well, very good!" Lu Daqi deliberately showed a gratified smile, "Since you have not betrayed the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will not let you down!"
Having said that, Lu Daqi looked behind Omubu.
The place was filled with surrendered Tumed soldiers.
They have no fighting spirit, their expressions are tense, and they are confused about their fate.
"The Jiannu have previously abolished your position as the leader of the Tumed tribe, but their actions do not count! In the eyes of the Ming court, you are still the leader of the Tumed tribe!" Lu Daqi said in a serious tone.
"Your subordinates were once enemies of the Ming Dynasty, but now they want to abandon the dark and join the light and return to the Ming Dynasty!"
"What's your attitude?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes were focused on Omubu.
At this time, Ombu had already fallen into a carnival of joy!
He never imagined that although he was demoted to a commoner by the Jiannu, he was always regarded as the leader of the Tumed tribe in the Ming court.
You can imagine how happy they were!
"Emubu, the Governor is asking you a question!" Liu Zhaoji reminded with his eyes wide open.
Omubu hurriedly bowed his head to apologize and recalled Lu Daqi's previous question.
"This...I wonder what the Governor's attitude means?" Omubu asked with a stiff face.
Lu Daqi said nothing and looked at Liu Zhaoji.
Liu Zhaoji puffed out his chest and answered proudly: "What you mean, Governor, is whether you want them to live or not! If you want them to live, they can live! If you want them to die, they must die!"
