For Batu, who was accustomed to using Turkic parchment, this kind of paper was rare, and he couldn't help but take the envelope, read it several times, and carefully examine the handwriting written in the Vulture letters on the cover, before opening the envelope sealed with fire paint and taking out the letter paper inside.

The content of the letter was still written in the familiar script of the Mongols, densely written for several pages, and the twisted strokes fell on Batu's eyes, making his face more and more serious.

At the end of the letter, there was a small stamp, which was covered with cinnabar, and Batu was very familiar with this stamp, and when he was a child, he used it as a toy, and sat in Temuge's arms and played with it.

This is the private seal of Temugohan Chijin.

On the edge of the seal, there is a missing corner, and the seal that is covered is missing an edge, and it is very familiar to Badu, and this seal is confirmed to be the unique private seal of Brother Temu.

And the words on the letter, the unique style of the law, cannot be imitated by others.

This letter must have been written by Temuge himself, and he personally stamped and stamped it.

Batu's face was cloudy and uncertain, and the hand holding the letter remained motionless, his eyes staring at the paper, as if there was an infinite mystery on it, and he could not understand it.

There was silence in the palace for a while, no one spoke, and everyone kept their breathing rhythm extremely slow, lest a heavy pant would disturb the noble Khan.

Time was passing, every minute and every second was so slow, less than ten pages of letters, and it took a long time for Badu to read a meal before he gently put it down.

As soon as he put it down, he picked it up again, and brought it close to a lit incense lamp beside him, and Sai Wenkui was easily ignited, turning into a few wisps of fly ash in the eyes of everyone.

What was written in the letter, only Batu alone in the entire Kipchak Khanate knew.

The vultures lowered their heads and pretended not to see or hear anything.

Batu looked at him and said, "Take these merchants to my golden tent, I have something special to ask, and you don't need to wait, just wait here." ”

After that, Batu stood up, turned his head and walked back, in the atrium of the palace, there is a huge yurt, covered with golden curtains, erected on behalf of the power of the Great Khan, although the city of Sarai is large, but Batu's daily life, in fact, more in this huge tent.

Jin Rucheng got up from the ground, and under the leadership of the vulture, followed the footsteps of Batu, and walked backwards step by step.

He had a relieved smile on his face.

Jin Rucheng understands that this trip to Sarai is already half of the success.

……

In the Hanshui River Valley, Changsun Hong and Wanyan Chengji had just returned to Jincheng on horseback from the upper reaches of Jishui.

The eldest grandson Hong and his barbarian generals spurred their horses to gallop in front, and Wanyan Chenghei followed behind with a complicated face.

He bit his lip, looking at Changsun Hong's back a little unreasonably, the complex emotions in his eyes were overflowing, and he pulled the reins of the mount tightly, lest the horse under his crotch take the lead and run to the front of Changsun Hong.

A Jurchen guard rode a horse to his side, and the scene he saw just now probably had been hovering in this person's mind, and at this time, seeing that he was surrounded by his own people, those Song people all beat their horses and ran to the front, and couldn't help but whisper to Wan Yan Chenghe.

"My lord, these Song people are really hateful! Doing such a big thing under our noses, they didn't even let us know, I said why Jishui has so much less water these days, it turned out to be a mystery made by them. Once the dam ......"

"Shut up!"

Wanyan Chengsi shouted angrily, and as soon as he scolded, he was shocked that his voice was too loud, and he hurriedly glanced ahead, and found that Changsun Hong and others were beating horses in front of him without noticing, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

He turned his head and lowered his voice viciously and said angrily: "Shut up! What are you doing here? Don't I know how? It is not too much to disturb the eldest grandson, and it is not too much to skin your kid! ”

The subordinate was startled and quickly shut up.

Wanyan Chengji continued to ride a little farther behind Changsun Hong with a gloomy face, his eyes staring at Changsun Hong's jumping back, his face was distorted for a while, sad for a while, and like a layer of fog for a while, dazed and confused.

The horse's hooves flew around, circled around Jincheng, and returned to the high post where the two had climbed high and looked into the distance the previous time.

As soon as the reins were pulled, the horse neighed, stepped on the ground a few steps to stop castration, and Changsun Hong, who was much more skilled than before, skillfully parked the mount in the position where he stopped last time, and turned back to Wanyan Chenghei who followed behind and smiled: "How, Lord Wanyan, what do you think about this day?" ”

Wanyan Chenghei tapped the horse's belly with his legs, slowly came to the side of Changsun Hong, and sighed sincerely: "The adults use tricks, and they are unpredictable, but this method is a little too damaging to yin morality." ”

"Ci is not in charge of the soldiers, Lord Wanyan, this is also a matter of no way." The eldest grandson Hong solemnly frowned, cast his eyes on the official road that stretched into the distance under the high post, and said coldly: "During the Chu and Han dynasties, Han Xin defeated the Han Dynasty and defeated the dragon, and during the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yunchang was drowned in the Forbidden Seventh Army, and Li Shimin cut off Luoshui to kill Liu Heimin and set the early Tang Dynasty, didn't thousands of people drown at that time?" Soldiers are not tired of cheating, don't you know that Lord Wanyan? ”

"I know, I know, but ......" Wan Yan Chengji still felt a little panicked.

"The Mongols do not deserve sympathy, you and my kindred, how many tens of millions died at their hands." Eldest Sun Hong looked at him sideways and snorted coldly: "I told you in advance, on the one hand, because you are now my subordinate officer, you should know that you want to participate in this battle." On the other hand, Jishui hoarding for so many days, once it happens, it is inevitable that it will be uncontrolled, and Jincheng is likely to be affected by the pond fish, so the people in and around the city should migrate as soon as possible, and the valley is not suitable for living after the flood, so it is better to plan early, Hanzhong over there, I have already cleaned up the land, and are building houses, and the people will go over early, and they can also have a place to live as soon as possible. ”

Wanyan Chenghei swallowed a fly in his mouth, and he was bitter and inconvenient to speak, frowning and not speaking for a long time.

Eldest Sun Hong glanced at him and said, "If you don't want to, you can do it without doing so." ”

Wanyan Chengji smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "Adults have reached this point, can I still have a choice?" If the people of Jincheng do not leave, they will make fish and shrimp in the water. ”

This sentence is said, Wanyan Chenghei is equivalent to accepting his fate, as soon as the people of Jincheng leave, Wanyan Chenghei is equivalent to completely becoming a vassal and subordinate of Changsun Hong, only soldiers without people are like rootless Ping, just drinking the northwest wind Those big-headed soldiers will kill Wanyan Chenghe.

In the days to come, unless you can rebel under the hands of Changsun Hong, there is no possibility of standing on your own mountain as your own family in the past.

He looked up to the sky and exhaled, and said softly: "In fact, at the moment when the adults asked me to lure the enemy deep and only allow defeat but not victory, I actually had a speculation in my heart, and I understood that the adults must have a back hand, but I didn't expect that the adult's hand is so big, not to mention Liu Heima and Kublai Khan, even if Genghis Khan crawls out of the coffin, he will fall for the adult's scheme." ”

"Genghis Khan's generation of overlords, perseverance and meritorious achievements, I can't compare." Eldest Sun Hong modestly excused himself: "All I can do is to send his descendants to reunite with him as much as possible." ”
