Chapter 208: The Seller Seeks Glory

Jia Rudao looked at the team below that couldn't see the tail, and was stunned in his heart, but he also opened his mouth. "Your Excellency may be the Mongolian Marshal Kublai Khan, who is the uncle and prime minister of the dynasty."

"I have a good relationship between Song and Mongolia, and the relationship is not ordinary, I don't know why Marshal Kublai Khan insisted on attacking my Great Song Dynasty, in other words, I have been waiting under the leadership of Emperor Lizong for many years, and I have paid tribute to the marshal."

Kublai Khan said: "It turned out to be Uncle Guo, I don't know if you remember your two million soldiers a month ago?" Hehe, Ben Shuai has led the troops for so many years, and he has never seen such an incompetent rat as Uncle Guo, two million people, Ben Shuai killed him without much effort. ”

Jia Rudao was very embarrassed and was already angry.

"Marshal Kublai Khan, although he has made a big mistake in Xia, he has also learned a lesson, does the marshal really think that he is an incompetent person in Xia?"

"Since the marshal thinks so, do you dare to let me meet with the marshal in the next place?" Uncle Guo can't go, he can't go!" The permanent general is already in a hurry.

Below, Kublai Khan waved his hand and said: "Since Uncle Guo is willing to contact with Ben Shuai, then you can come down, and besides, Ben Shuai will not kill unarmed people, there is nothing wrong with you and I seeing important people in the two armies."

Ordered his subordinates to open the city gate, Jia Rudao walked over alone, and when he came to his side, Kublai Khan also dismounted, ordered his subordinates to bring two stools, and the two sat down one after another.

He said with a smile: "Ben Shuai has long heard of Uncle Guo's name, and when I saw it today, it really deserves its reputation, Uncle Guo dares to come down to meet me Kublai Khan with one person, this courage is admirable."

Jia Rudao said with a smile: "Dashuai is serious, Jia is just thinking, Mongolia this time a million lions went down to the Great Song Dynasty, and our army also has a million people, but, compared with the million people of Dashuai, we are not opponents, so what is the difference between going down and not going down to the city?"

Kublai Khan laughed.

"Uncle Guo is worthy of being Uncle Guo, this high remark, Ben Shuai appreciates it very much, but the last defeat was just a temporary mistake by Uncle Guo, my Mongolia wants to occupy the world of the Great Song Dynasty, it is definitely not easy, and it is even more difficult than encircling and suppressing the Jin people back then."

"The Great Song Dynasty has a vast land and abundant aquatic products, especially the title of the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, while I Mongolia only has an endless steppe, which is much less than that of the Great Song Dynasty.

"From the generation of Genghis Khan, the ancestors of the ancestors, I Mongolia, you and the Jin people are constantly fighting, these hundreds of years, only the Jin people have been destroyed, and now, the battle between you and me in the Great Song Dynasty for decades, Ben Shuai hopes to be solved by me Kublai Khan?"

Jia Rudao said: "Why does the big marshal have to occupy my Great Song Dynasty? Wouldn't it be nice for you and me to live in peace? Besides, over the years, the tribute of the Great Song Dynasty is enough to feed the Mongolian people!"

"And Dashuai, although you have tens of millions of iron horses, the same is true of my Great Song Dynasty, besides, we still have hundreds of millions of people, Dashuai is sure that he can occupy us?"

Kublai Khan laughed, got up and looked into the distance, and then said, "Listen to Uncle Guo's meaning, isn't he threatening me Mongolia?" Immortal Emperor Genghis Khan's expedition to Europe wiped out more than 40 countries, how can he be afraid of your small country now?"

Jia seemed to be taken aback, and immediately said: "Dashuai misunderstood, Jia Mou, I mean, my Great Song can increase the tribute, how about 20 million taels of silver, 20 million taels of horses, and 50 million catties of grain per year?"

With such a large number, Jia Rudao was shocked after speaking, it was a pity, he gave it to the Mongolian dog like this, and he was very unwilling.

But he knew that he was now a dying bird, and if he didn't do it, the Great Song Dynasty would be finished and he would die within three years.

Kublai Khan's body was stunned for a moment, it was obvious that he was moved by this condition, and at the same time, didn't he regret receiving the money?

"Uncle Guo, since this is the case, then Ben Shuai promised you that you will transport all these things to Ben Shuai in the near future, and then I will immediately retreat fifty miles back in Mongolia, and not only that, but also announce that I will not take the next step in the south within three months."

"Three months?" Jia Rudao stretched out his hand and said, "Dashuai's time is a little short, otherwise, how about we have six months?"

"Six months? No, no, not too much, since Uncle Guo has already spoken, then Ben Shuai will also let you go directly for four months?"

"Five months." Jia Yidao is also working hard.

Finally, after discussion, it was finally decided, that is, four and a half months.

"Uncle Guo, Ben Shuai immediately retreated fifty miles, as for what you promised, Ben Shuai will give you half a month, if you can't transport it, hehe, I have tens of millions of Mongolian soldiers, do you think Xiangyang City can resist it?"

Jia Rudao nodded one after another, now he has no choice but to do this. Jia Rudao returned to the city tower and immediately called the general Chang over.

"Lord Chang, Master Jia, I now want you to immediately write a letter to the emperor to the Lin'an Xuande Palace, telling him that the Mongolian army promised to retreat fifty miles, and at the same time asked him to distribute more grain, grain, grass, and horses."

"Ahh This and this, Uncle Guo, let's.... What's the use of us asking for so many things? Now there is enough food in Xiangyang City, and my military camp can't afford so much silver.

"This... If you want to go, you will go, anyway, Uncle Guo and I have already put my words here, if you delay the big event, will you come to make amends?"

Lord Chang will be silent, Jia seems to say that he can't afford to offend, and at this moment there is no other way than to agree.

A few days later, the funeral of the Queen Mother has been completed, Lin'an Xuande Palace, above the early dynasty, Song Lizong received an excerpt written by Xiangyang City, and he was not in a very good mood at the moment.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have good news and bad news for you today, since this is the case, then I will talk about the bad news first."

"Lanzhu County, who has been demoted to Lizheng, and at the same time has made great contributions to my Great Song Dynasty, Lord Song Ci, who is also the former criminal officer and director of the Criminal Department, passed away due to illness a few days ago.

In the Hall of Elective Virtue, many people already know about it, and some people have heard it for the first time at this moment, and their faces are bloodless.

At this crisis juncture in the Great Song Dynasty, even if it is a corrupt official, it is a sad face, if the Great Song Dynasty is gone, what is the use of having more money?

Some people sighed, and some people secretly rejoiced for a while, Song Ci had no threat to them for a long time, because the entire Great Song Dynasty had already focused on the Mongolian army.

Some ministers revealed their true feelings, "The Great Song Dynasty has been really bad recently, not only the Queen Mother died, but also Lord Song died, as well as Hu Zhuangyuan and Lord Luo, and it is even more sad that Prime Minister Liu's rebellion led to the tragic death of two million people." ”

There was silence in the Xuande Palace, Rao is these corrupt officials can hear the two million three words at the moment, and they are also frowning, their main purpose is money, not human life.

Song Lizong comforted everyone, and then said: "Don't be too sad, Aiqing, no, there is another good news in my hands, this is Jia Cai, who has now gone to Xiangyang City, he has just arrived a few days ago, and he has driven the Mongolian army back fifty miles."

There was a lot of exclamation and cheers from the audience, this is a huge piece of good news, does this mean that the Great Song Dynasty can already repel Mongolia at present?

"Congratulations to the emperor, if this is the case, my Great Song Dynasty can not only repel the Mongols, but even occupy the Mongols, which is good news.

"Yes, the emperor, Uncle Guo has made a great contribution, and my Great Song Dynasty has him, and he can still exist for thousands of years!"

Song Lizong chuckled, "It is precisely because of Jia talent that I can sit back and relax, and it is precisely because of him that the people of my Great Song Dynasty can settle down and start a business.

"It's the emperor."

"Now Xiangyang City is the last line of defense of my Great Song Dynasty, to hold Xiangyang is to defend the Great Song Dynasty, I must spare no time to support Jia Cai against Mongolia."

A few days later, the supplies transported by the imperial court finally arrived at the bottom of the Xiangyang City Tower, and Jia Rudao immediately sent people to the place where Kublai Khan was stationed, fifty miles away, and these materials could make the Great Song Dynasty safe for four and a half months, which he felt was worth it.

After walking for a whole day, the group finally arrived at their destination early the next morning, and they were received by the Mongol army.

In the tent, Kublai Khan brought wine and food, and drank with Jia Yidao, like an old acquaintance, which was very good.

"Uncle Guo really kept his promise, it has only been a long time, these materials have come here, and Ben Shuai is deeply pleased with Uncle Guo's approach.

"Come on, Uncle Guo, you have been all the way. Running around, it seems that you are tired, Ben Shuai toasts you with a drink, and at the same time don't be in a hurry when you are drunk, Ben Shuai will arrange a place for you. ”

Jia Rudao took a sip of rice wine.

"The big marshal has won the award, in fact, what Jia is doing is also for me Song and Mongolia to live in peace, the Great Song Dynasty and Mongolia are both countries with a long history, Jia really doesn't want to have another war, so it will be a huge harm to the two countries.

"Especially the people, the two countries will suffer countless casualties if they fight, many people will lose their homes, and even their families will be ruined."

Kublai Khan naturally knew this, but how could he take care of these things if he had achieved great things? Otherwise, it is better to go home and pick up the child.

The two drank for a long time, and Kublai Khan said: "Listening to Uncle Guo's words, it is better to read for ten years, although Ben Shuai is a Mongolian marshal, but his opinion is not as good as Uncle Guo, I am really ashamed, I am very ashamed."

They chatted for a long time, and then Jia Rudao left with his men, he was so drunk that he fell off his horse several times, and smashed his feet into the air.

The subordinates were frightened, and hurriedly sent it back to Xiangyang City, at this moment, the Chang Lord will feel a chill in his heart, he already knows what is going on, Jia seems to say that this is a humble request for peace with Mongolia.

He didn't know what to do, whether to ask the emperor for advice, or to pretend that he didn't know anything?

Early in the morning of the second day, Jia Rudao had already woken up from his sleep, and when he came outside the house, the permanent lord would be here.
