Chapter 1670: The Death of Tuo Lei (Part II)

After Yelu Chucai went to the palace, he immediately reported with a sad face: "Your Majesty, Weichen is incompetent, although he has served the loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, he can't say Jia Xu, who is scheming. ”

Hearing this, Tuo Lei's heart suddenly hung up, and he frowned and asked, "What's going on?" ”

"The Qin army is now facing the attack of the two Han Dynasty, and the Han court is worried that it will offend our country, and most of the people agree with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to return to China."

"Isn't that good?" Tuo Lei asked puzzled.

"But it's useless for them to agree, Jia Xu Lao'er is resolutely opposed." Yelu Chucai said with a bitter face.

In fact, Yelu Chucai's envoy trip was far more exciting than the few words he said, although the ministers of the Luoyang court were worried that they would offend Yuanmeng if they refused, but they were not worried that Yuanmeng would be angry and recruited.

Yuanmeng paid so much war reparations to the Han Dynasty, and in order to repel the Manchu Qing Dynasty, he wiped out the domestic heritage, which is also a well-known thing in the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, most of the officials in the court, led by Kong Rong and Wang Lang, did not believe that Yuanmeng dared to raise troops to attack.

Faced with such a situation, Yelu Chucai was in charge of the dynasty and fought the ministers of the Han Dynasty alone.

Yelu Chucai first stated that after two years of repair, Yuanmeng's strength has not yet recovered, but it also has the strength to send troops, and the Luoyang court is facing the attack of the two Hans.

Such a statement made the ministers who were sure that Yuanmeng did not dare to send troops in their hearts, and they no longer dared to believe that Yuanmeng would not dare to send troops to commit crimes.

Later, Yelu Chucai said that Kublai Khan returned to China to visit his mother, in order to fulfill his filial piety, and he should not be stopped by the Han Dynasty......

Yelu Chucai was eloquent, when the court's tongue fought the ministers, Kong Rong, Wang Mang and others who debated were speechless, and most of the courtiers also changed their attitudes, feeling that it was not cost-effective to offend Yuan Meng at this time, and they all agreed to let Kublai Khan return to China to visit his mother.

But just like the Yuanmeng doves, the ministers of the Luoyang Dynasty did not speak, even if they all agreed, but as long as Jia Xu did not agree, Kublai Khan would not be able to return to China safely.

Yelu Chucai came with a mission, so even in the face of Jia Xu, he fought with reason, but he didn't succeed.

How accurate Jia Xu's vision was, he could see at a glance that Yuan Meng had a different heart, and this time he pretended to let Kublai Khan go back in the name of visiting the sick, just because he didn't want to leave hostages and be threatened.

In the past, Jia Xu still felt that Tuo Lei was also a hero, and when it was time to go to war, he would never care about the life of a mere son.

Through the fact that Emperor Yuan sent important ministers to ask for Kublai Khan, Jia Xu realized that Tuo Lei still cared about Kublai Khan very much, and as long as Kublai Khan was in hand, Tuo Lei might not dare to raise troops to attack.

Jia Xu took this as a breakthrough and insisted that Empress Yuanmeng's critical illness was a pretext, and bluntly said that if Yuanmeng raised troops to attack, the Qin army would definitely kill Kublai Khan's sacrificial banner.

Yelu Chucai asked himself if his eloquence was okay, but when he met Jia Xu, who did not enter the oil and salt, he really had no choice but to return to China in defeat to prove that Yuanmeng had no intention of starting a war against the Qin army.

"Jia Xu is the uncle of Qin Hao, the king of Qin, who has a high position in the court and holds real power, and it is precisely because of his opposition that Weichen's trip will be successful." Yelu Chucai said bitterly.

"Hmph, this old man Jia Xu, it's really damned."

Tuo Lei's eyes were full of anger, and he said coldly: "In the future, if my Dayuan can be ashamed, on the day of the attack on Luoyang, I will definitely divide the five horses of this old man." ”

The reason why Tuo Lei is so angry is mainly because Jia Xu has mastered his weakness, as long as Kublai Khan does not come back for a day, even if the Qin army is really defeated, he will not dare to send troops.

But if you don't send troops and don't defeat the Qin army, how can you wash away the national shame?

For a time, Tuo Lei couldn't help but find himself in a dilemma, hesitating between his son and the country.

"Fortunately, the Qin army is still strong, and it has not been defeated in Hebei, and when the outcome is unknown, I can not send troops, so naturally I don't have to be in a dilemma."

Tuo Lei said secretly in his heart, then looked at the ministers below, and ordered: "Although the Qin army started a war with the two Han at the same time, it was not defeated, but was about to defeat the Northern Han, which shows that Qin Hao's qi is not exhausted, this is not the best time to send troops to attack Qin, and my Dayuan still needs to wait for the opportunity to accumulate strength." ”

"Your Majesty is wise." The doves said in unison.

"The minister objected."

Mao Dun stood up and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, the population gap between our country and the Han people is destined to make it difficult for our country to surpass Qin no matter how much our country saves, and it will be difficult for the national strength to surpass the Qin State, not to mention that Qin Hao will never give me the opportunity for Dayuan to overtake."

Now, the Qin army is at war with the two Han Dynasty at the same time, which is the time when the army is tight, and this is also a golden opportunity for my Great Yuan to avenge the shame of the blood country. ”

As soon as Mao Dun said this, the hawkish ministers responded one after another, shouting in unison: "What King Mao Dun said is very true, and I also ask Your Majesty to send troops to attack Qin." ”

These truths are naturally understood, but as long as the Qin army is undefeated and Yuanmeng sends troops, it will completely offend the Qin State, and once Qin cannot be destroyed, it will be Yuanmeng who will be destroyed at that time.

For the sake of the country, it is natural to be cautious, and Tuo Lei is not willing to take this risk, not to mention that his son Kublai Khan is still a hostage in Luoyang.

"Mao Dun, with the Qin army winning the Qingbei victory, the occupation of Hebei has been tilted towards the Qin army, at this time, even if my Dayuan sends troops to attack Qin, it may not be able to defeat the Qin army."

Tuo Lei said that he wanted Mao Dun to give up his plan to attack Qin, but Mao Dun's resoluteness exceeded his expectations.

"Your Majesty, you must know that when the Qin army only has four places in the division and Jinghe, the military strength has far surpassed my Dayuan, if it occupies Hebei, I am afraid that my Dayuan will never have any chance to overtake again.

Therefore, the Qin army was defeated, and I, Dayuan, wanted to send troops to carve up the Qin state.

If the Qin army wins, I, Dayuan, should send troops, together with the Han princes, to prevent the Qin army from continuing to grow. ”

As soon as Mao Dun's words fell, a soldier entered the hall and reported: "Your Majesty, there has been an accident in the Julu war, Su Lie and Li Jing are flanked by the east and west, and Lian Po is defeated, and the 100,000 Zhao army is annihilated. ”

"What?"

The ministers of Yuan and Mongolia exclaimed one after another, and the dovid officials all spoke out in unison against sending troops.

"Alas......"

After seeing this, Tuo Lei sighed, and asked Mao Dun below: "Once the giant deer is defeated, the battle situation in Hebei will no longer be able to return to the sky." Mao Dun, do you still insist on sending troops to attack Qin? ”

Mao Dun gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty, the minister is still the same sentence, the Qin army is defeated, my Dayuan will send troops, the Qin army will win, and my Dayuan will send troops." ”

"Hmph."

Hearing this, Tuo Lei's face suddenly changed, and after snorting coldly, he said: "Mao Dun, I see that you are carried away by hatred, have you used your brain to think about the consequences of sending troops?" ”
