Genghis Khan named Mu Huali as the prince and king, and gave the oath coupon gold seal, which was engraved: "The descendants will pass on the country for generations." ”

The so-called king is actually just a title, and there is no land, and Genghis Khan once sent Muhuali to the border area of Jin. At that time, the Jurchen tribes called him king, which means the king of a country.

Later, when Genghis Khan heard about it, he said to him: "This title is a sign of happiness, and it is very good." ”

So Genghis Khan added the position of Taishi before the king, and gave all the power to Mu Huali for the Jin War, and all matters in the war against the Jin State did not need to be reported, and they could make their own decisions. At that time, he said a well-known saying: "The north of Taihang is from the Jingluo, and the south of Taihang is reluctant." ”

In order to increase Mu Huali's authority and show that he has full command and power of life and death, Genghis Khan also specially gave him the nine-tailed white banner, and told the generals: "Mu Huali relies on this banner to give orders, if I come in person, all the soldiers in the army must be in a hurry, if there is any violation, you can cut it first and then play." ”

This arrangement is quite similar to the Shang Fang sword of the Central Plains Emperor, which shows Genghis Khan's dependence on Mu Huali, and the Jin Dynasty even called Mu Huali the Emperor Quan, where Quan means agency. Although Mu Huali's status was so lofty, the Southern Expeditionary Army that Genghis Khan left to him was not the main force of the Mongol army, nor the left-hand army he originally commanded, but a veritable division.

In this division, there were 10,000 cavalry from the Wanggu Department and 12,000 Mongolian Tanma Red Army, totaling more than 20,000 people. The so-called Tanma is the reconnaissance personnel who command the army, and the Chimeng language means people. The Tanma Red Army refers to the vanguard army, which is a miscellaneous group of men and horses with five divisions such as Hongjira, Zaraer, and Qijun as the core, and a number of commanders and generals participate in the command. The vanguard officers of these five departments are the Laughing Hidden Gangster, Broad and Broad, Polo, Cowardly Terrace, Jicha'er, and Buri Heba'er Army.

Due to Mu Huali's step-by-step advance, the Jin State had to retreat step by step, and had to retreat to the south bank of the Yellow River, concentrating its troops near Tongguan, along the Yellow River for more than 2,000 miles in the north, divided into four sections, and sending hundreds of thousands of troops to hold on in sections, thus forming a situation of confrontation between Mongolia and Jin across the Yellow River, laying the foundation for the future Mongol destruction of Jin.

Mu Huali received the order of Genghis Khan to continue the march, taking advantage of the cold weather, the army crossed the Yellow River through ice, entered Shaanxi, first occupied Tongzhou, then conquered Pucheng, and then reached the city of Jingzhaofu.

Jingzhao was called Chang'an in ancient times, called Jingzhao in the Song Dynasty, set up the palace Yin, located in the middle of the Weihe Plain, an ancient city with a long history, Wanyan Heda was ordered to defend, first implemented the strategy of clearing the field around Jingzhao, requiring no one person or one animal to be left within fifty miles, and even a thatched hut was not left for the Mongols, and obstacles were set up all over the main road, which brought trouble to the actions of the Mongolian cavalry.

Because the city wall is strong, the city is tightly defended, the city gate is closed tightly, the city is not out of the city to fight, the Mongolian army can not be attacked for a long time, at this time it is cold and cold, people lack food, horses and forage, Mu Huali saw that the siege is hopeless, anxious, so he led the generals, to the surrounding hillside to reconnoiter the terrain, but unexpectedly infected with the wind and cold, after returning to the camp actually had a fever and headache.

At that time, most Mongolian doctors were sorcerers, and they often mixed superstitious behaviors in the treatment of diseases, and sometimes the doctor's grievances and feelings against the patients made the treatment of diseases confusing. This Mongolian doctor's name is Guan Er Peng, who was originally the imperial physician of Sun Khan, but after the destruction of the barbarian tribe, he became Genghis Khan's military doctor.

After Genghis Khan knew, he was angry and had to kill him, but Mu Huali saved him and interceded for him: "Guan Er Peng used the locust to suck pus, it was just improper medical skills, the intention was to cure the disease, not to harm people, and he should not be executed, so stay with me." ”

After Genghis Khan agreed, he asked him to immediately find a way to take out the locusts that had burrowed into the flesh, and hurry up to cure Mu Huali's leg pain, otherwise he would still have to deal with him.

A few days later, Guan Erpeng finally came up with a way to draw out the locusts, he boiled the flue-cured tobacco in water, waited until it was cold, and then immersed Mu Huali's sore legs in the smoke water, and after half an hour, the two grasshoppers crawled out and died in the smoke and water.

It turned out that the smoke water was very toxic, and after soaking into the flesh from the sore hole, the locusts were forced to stay in the flesh, so they had to come out and be poisoned in the smoke water. Because the smoke water was poisonous, the abscess on Mu Huali's legs, washed by the smoke water, soon played a role in fighting poison with poison, and it didn't take long for it to heal, and Guan Er Peng stayed in Mu Huali's military camp later.

Who knows that in the name of treating the soldiers, he was particularly enthusiastic about those soldiers who were good-looking and good-looking, and tried every means to examine their bodies, look carefully and touch them, and even kiss them in the mouth when no one was around, and do things between men and women. Sometimes he was resisted by the soldiers, and when he faced him, he lost his temper, and even insulted him, he could eat, endure, and deal with it calmly, and he still did not change afterwards.

Soon, Mu Huali learned of this, called Guan Er Peng to reprimand him severely, and warned him: "If you don't get rid of your bad habits and continue to do that kind of thing, you will be punished and will not be spared." ”

Guan Erpeng was submissive on the surface, but once he met a good-looking soldier, he was affectionate, tried his best to meet him, and buried Mu Huali's shouting as hatred deep in his heart. This time, taking advantage of Mu Huali's illness, Guan Er Peng came up with a way to rectify him, saying that he had collided with the mountain god and asked him to bow down to the mountain god on the snow with his head uncovered and barefoot, and beg for forgiveness. He also said that Mu Huali was haunted by evil ghosts, and in order to exorcise the ghosts for him, Guan Erpeng poured cold water and sweet frost on him, pouring Mu Huali wet and shivering from the cold.

After such a toss, Mu Huali's illness was not only not well, but became heavier, Zhang Rou and other generals suggested: "I have only heard of the use of herbs to cure diseases, and I have never seen the gods and exorcise ghosts to cure diseases, so it is better to invite a Han doctor to treat it." ”

After Mu Huali agreed, he took the herbs of the Han doctor, and sure enough, the fever subsided, and he gradually ate and recovered.

Since Jingzhao Mansion could not be attacked for a long time, Mu Huali had to order the withdrawal of his troops, so he turned west and made a surprise attack on Fengxiang. Fengxiang guard general Wanyan Bojia, a well-known general of the Jin State, this person is resourceful, but also closed the city gate, refused to fight, strengthened the defense in the city day and night, the Mongolian army besieged for more than a month, still could not be captured, had to withdraw troops. Mu Huali was anxious, coupled with the cold climate and overwork, his originally weak body couldn't hold on, and finally fell ill again.

Mu Huali, who has always been a victorious general, said with emotion to his subordinates after the setback of the southern expedition: "I was ordered to conquer Liaoxi, Liaodong, Shandong, and Hebei within a few years, and now I am facing Jingzhao Mansion, especially the little Fengxiang, but I can't attack it for a long time, is it that I have exhausted my wisdom and my life is about to end?"

Mu Huali, a genius general of a generation, led the army back to Shanxi, came to Wenxi and fell ill, and finally died suddenly at the age of fifty-four.

Before he died, Mu Huali said to his younger brother and grandson: "I have been strong for the Mongol Empire for 40 years, conquering the east and the west, and making several military exploits, even if I die today, I have no regrets." What I feel hated is that I failed to conquer Bianjing, the new capital of the Jin Dynasty, and I really failed Genghis Khan's expectations of me, and I hope you will work hard for this in the future. ”

Talents are rare, generals are even more rare, and handsome talents are especially rare. In terms of cultural level, Mu Huali is not very literate, but he is in charge, he can face thousands of troops and horses, and his command is determined, and he actually occupies a large area of North China in a very short period of time with a very small number of troops, which can be called a military genius.

Perhaps he learned war from war, accumulated experience in practice, and was tempered, especially by following Genghis Khan, and being inspired by his edification, coupled with his loyalty, bravery, and self-confidence, and of course, his ability to listen to all kinds of opinions, and to win over and unite the chiefs of all nationalities to subjugate, so that he was respected in front of many subordinates; The Khitan and even Jurchen generals were all bold and reused, and could be entrusted with important tasks, so after most of them surrendered, they were desperate to fight and fight bravely, and offered advice and advice with all their loyalty and wisdom.

Mu Huali was loyal and brave all his life, and truly achieved that he was not warm, his body was not disarmed, and he regretted his life, but the Jin Kingdom was not destroyed, which was a hateful thing that he never forgot before his death, and he was worthy of being regarded by Genghis Khan as a minister with a car and an arm. Soon after Mu Huali's death, Jin Xuanzong fell ill and died, and his son Wanyan Shouxu succeeded him, that is, Jin Aizong, and changed his name to Zhengda in the second year.

Jin Aizong, who had not been in office for a long time, was ambitious, and appointed Xu Ding, Zhang Xingxin, etc., who were more knowledgeable, to serve as prime ministers, and to fight against the meritorious Wanyan Heda, Wanyan Bojia and others, and awarded them the Golden Tiger Talisman, and increased the official promotion, so that they could hold military power and continue to fight against the Mongolian army.

Xia sent envoys to reconcile with the Jin dynasty, and in June of the following year, the Jin and Xia negotiated peace, and from then on the Jin state concentrated its main forces on the banks of the Yellow River to fight against the Mongols. Then the Jin Aizong sent troops to capture some prefectures and counties in Shanxi and Hebei, and some local armed forces that had originally surrendered to Muhuali were reattached to the Jin State under the deterrence of the strong forces of the Jin Dynasty. Originally, after Hebei Zhending was annexed to Mongolia by Zhang Rou, Mu Huali let him stay by his side, and sent Shi Tianni and Zhang Rou's former deputy general Wu Xian to manage Zhending, and later soon after Mu Huali's death, Wu Xian revealed his opposite, secretly colluded with the Jin Dynasty, and killed Shi Tianni, who insisted on opposing Jin, openly rebelled against Mongolia and surrendered to Jin.

All of a sudden, the counties of Heshuo rebelled, causing Mongolia to lose its territory and lose its generals, and almost all of Muhuali's business for several years was lost. After Genghis Khan received the news, he immediately ordered Mu Huali's son Polu to inherit his father's position and insist on waging a-for-tat struggle against the Jin army and the forces attached to Jin.

Polu was intelligent since childhood, good at riding and shooting after adulthood, generous to people, calm and resourceful personality, proficient in Chinese, inherited his father's legacy at the age of 27, took the throne, led troops to attack gold, and cleaned up the mess in the Central Plains. The so-called generals out of the tiger, Polu's talent in commanding the army was not inferior to his father's, and in a short time, he regained control of the Mongol army in the Central Plains and completed the task assigned by Genghis Khan.
