Arslen Khan looked south from the steppe, but in his heart he thought of the current Jia Ke, his confidant and enemy.

Judging from the information obtained, the current Jia Ke is even more difficult to deal with, and he actually imprisoned the emperor of the Southern Dynasty.

This Jia Ke doesn't have the kind of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness of the Southern Dynasties, and now Jia Ke is already sitting firmly in the court, if he invades the south again, I am afraid that it will not be a Xuanfu Town, but a million soldiers of the Southern Dynasty.

But Arslen Khan didn't have any idea of backing down, because the current Jia Ke was already so difficult to deal with, and it might have no chance to develop it any longer.

Jia Ke, a hero, will not sit back and watch the strength of the grassland, he will definitely go north to the grassland and get rid of his own big trouble.

After Arslen Khan figured it out, he issued an edict to all the tribes, telling all the tribes to prepare in advance, and when the autumn was high and the horses were fat, they would gather in the king's tent, and then go south together.

If you can hit the Jingshi of the Southern Dynasty again, this time you must not give up, at least get rid of Jia Ke.

After hearing the order from Arslen Khan, the heroes of the steppe were all gearing up, and they also wanted to go south again to avenge the revenge of the year.

Only Meng He frowned after hearing the news, he had a few confrontations with Jia Ke on the grassland a few years ago, he knew that Jia Ke was powerful, this person was resourceful and heroic, once he started a war with this person, he must not be able to win a quick victory in the end, and when the time comes, with the financial resources of the grassland, I am afraid that it will not be as good as the Southern Dynasty, once this situation occurs, it will be dangerous.

Meng He couldn't watch the grassland suffer another setback, so after he received the military order, he hurried towards the king's tent.

A day later, Meng He came to the place where the king's tent was located, which was at the foot of Qilian Mountain, with abundant water and grass, and was a rare feng shui treasure on the grassland.

As soon as Meng He arrived at the location of the king's tent, Arslen Khan got the news.

Arslen Khan still attached great importance to this handsome man who could fight for battle, and as soon as he heard that he had come to the king's tent, he ordered someone to invite him to his big account.

Meng He saw Arslen Khan, first saluted him according to etiquette, and then couldn't wait to reply: "Great Khan, I received your order that there will be a southern dynasty this year, I don't know if it's true." ”

After hearing this, Arslen Khan was silent for a long time before nodding, he also knew that this time the southward movement was a bit abrupt, and I was afraid that it would not be so easy to win.

"Great Khan, in the mean, we still have to recuperate for a few years, and then we can save Wansheng by going south."

Hearing this, Arslen Khan's face was full of seriousness, "How many more years to recuperate?" Can Jia Ke, a hero, let us wander on the grassland for a few years? ”

Meng He was also a little helpless when he heard this, and now the Tatars are already difficult to ride a tiger. Since the enmity with Jia Ke, I am afraid that only if the two sides fall can this war end.

Meng He thought for a while, and then said: "It's better to make peace with Nan Chaoyan for a few years temporarily, and we can also recuperate and restore our vitality." ”

Arslen Khan said impatiently: "Don't daydream about it, do you think Jia Ke is a fool?" ”

Meng He didn't say anything anymore when he heard this, although he didn't want to go south, but he couldn't stop Jia Ke from going north, it seemed that this battle would not be spared.

Meng He did not convince Arslen Khan, and sighed after returning to his tribe, the current Tatars have provoked the behemoth of the Southern Dynasty several times, I am afraid that there will not be a good end, since ancient times, the confrontation between the grassland and the Southern Dynasty has always been only a temporary victory, once the Southern Dynasty concentrates its efforts, the grassland will definitely be defeated by the Southern Dynasty.

Arslen Khan doesn't care what Menghe thinks, in addition to the cavalry of the steppe, he now has mercenaries in the Western Regions to rely on, these people are about 100,000 people, and a person is tall and big, it is not bad to use these people to consume the strength of Jia Ke Southern Dynasty first.

In the blink of an eye, a few months have passed, and once again it is time for autumn to be fattened.

Arslen Khan issued an order to the steppe tribes in accordance with the established principles, and these men, each with dry rations, assembled together near the king's tent.

Arslen Khan can be said to have poured out of the nest this time, and the cavalry alone gathered more than 300,000, plus more than 100,000 slaves and mercenaries plundered from the Western Regions, about 500,000 horses.

Arslen Khan can be said to have done his best, because the food, drink, and Lazar of these people alone were enough for him, and with the strength of the Tatars, he was not qualified to carry out several such expeditions.

If they can't completely gain an advantage over Jia Ke this time today, then the Tatars will probably no longer have the ability to go south in the future.

Arslen Khan summoned the chiefs of the tribes and his generals in the Great Tent of the Chinese Army, as well as reinforcements from the kingdoms of the Western Regions.

Arslen Khan sat in the center, dozens of people stood on both sides, and outside the big tent of the Chinese army, countless guards were erected.

"Everyone, we have been going well in the past few years, we have put down the rebellion in the Western Regions, and repelled the Great Eclipse. Now is the time to be strong. This time, going south will definitely deal a heavy blow to the Southern Dynasty, so that Jia Ke will not dare to look north from now on. ”

When the generals and chieftains on either side heard Arslen Khan's oath, they all cheered together.

Seeing that these people were not bad, Arslen Khan also smiled and nodded, and then waved them quietly.

"This time the stakes are very high, you can't be careless, Meng Heke?"

When Meng He heard the call of Arslen Khan and others, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Return to the Great Khan, the last general." ”

"Meng He, I now order you to be the vanguard of the front, command 50,000 cavalry, open roads in the mountains, and build bridges in the water."

"Do as the Great Khan commands."

Arslen Khan made Meng He the vanguard of the front, and he also took a fancy to his cautiousness in using troops, if he was replaced by a reckless one, he might fall for Jia Ke's tricks all of a sudden, and tens of thousands of horses would have to be confessed at that time.

After Arslen Khan finished commanding the front, he said: "Odengeril? ”

Immediately, out of the crowd came a middle-aged man, who was not as strong as the other Tatars, but who had shrewdness in his eyes.

Odengeril walked out of his class, stood in the center of the tent, and gave a salute to Arslen Khan.

"Aodengeril, you are a wise man on the grassland, and now you are ordered to be the rear, pressing grain and transporting grass so that the soldiers will not be short of food and drink."

"Don't worry, the Great Khan, but with me, the soldiers will be well fed for a day."

Arslen Khan nodded, and then said to the others: "The cavalry of each division is divided into two wings, left and right, and the army is divided into two wings. The infantry of the Western Regions will advance with my Chinese army, and tomorrow the army will be launched, and we must reach Gubeikou within 15 days, and I will reach the Jingshi of the Southern Dynasty in the shortest possible time. ”

As soon as Arslen Khan gave the order, the entire Tatar army moved, so these hundreds of thousands of horses and some slaves transporting grain marched towards Gubeikou.

The Tatar movement had long been reported by the Mongol Eight Banners, who immediately reported it to the chiefs of the various ministries.

After receiving the news, the leaders of the Eight Banners did not dare to slack off after discussing it, and immediately sent fast horses to report to Jia Ke in the capital.

In Xuanfu Town, Tang Kui had already received the news in advance, and the news had already been sent to Jingshi before Arsleng Khan held a conference.

And what is Jia Ke doing at this time? At this time, Jia Ke was not idle, he kept mobilizing grain and grass in the capital, and ordered Feng Mo in Liaodong and Huang Baifeng in Xuanfu Town to bring 50,000 horses to the capital to meet him.

This time, Jia Ke was ready to go north with 150,000 horses from the three major battalions, plus a total of 200,000 cavalry battalions in Gubeikou and more than 300,000 people and horses in Liaodong Town and Xuanfu Town.

These horses had already assembled in the capital when the autumn harvest was over, and they only waited for Jia Ke to give an order to march north.

After Jia Ke got the news that Arslene Khan was going to attack from Gubeikou, he did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered the army, reorganized the armament, and prepared to march to Gubeikou in three days.

Not to mention that Jia Ke is here preparing to go north to meet Arslen Khan, not to mention that in the capital, it is also turbulent and turbulent.

The most active of these is the King of Zhongshun.

Since imprisoning the emperor in charge of the court, King Zhongshun has been honestly in the palace, and he doesn't dare to come out and make trouble casually.

King Zhongshun was afraid that Jia Ke would remember his previous hatred and seize the opportunity to kill himself, so he was cautious now and must not give Jia Ke any chance.

But as the news from the grassland kept passing to the capital, even the king of Zhongshun knew about it.

After the king of Zhongshun got the news, he sat in the study for a night, and after thinking about it, he felt that this was a good time to officially restore their family.

Because with the passage of time, Jia Ke's power has become more and more stable, and even those local officials have been replaced by Jia Ke a lot, and if it goes on like this, it will not take a few years to work hard, and those local officials will be under Jia Ke's command.

After King Zhongshun made up his mind, he quietly ordered those henchmen and eunuchs under his command to deliver news to various palaces and the palaces of the emperor's relatives.

They don't see each other either, and they all rely on their subordinates to pass secret letters to communicate with each other.

Although one or two of the royal family did not want to take risks, most of them supported the king loyally.

Because anyone who has some vision has already seen that Jia Ke is not a person who has lived below the people for a long time, and it is only a matter of time before he usurps the throne.

These people agreed with each other in the letter that they would be headed by King Zhongshun, and when Jia Ke left the capital, they would concentrate their own soldiers and servants in the palace, take the opportunity to seize control of the capital, rescue the emperor, and then order the world in the name of the emperor to block Jia Ke outside the Gubei Pass.

At that time, Jia Ke will be composed of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and if he runs out of ammunition and food, he can only scatter in a hurry.

Jia Ke himself can't go back to the Central Plains, and there is another big enemy on the grassland, so I'm afraid he won't have long to live.

After they thought of countermeasures, they secretly hid, and when Jia Ke went north, they could launch it in one fell swoop and restore the dignity of the royal family.
