Chapter Fifty-Four: Whispering in the Night

The moon is like water, and the pine waves are like waterfalls.

Eseku sat on the railroad tracks, looking at the towering Xing'an Mountains in the distance, and his heart was full of thoughts.

The teacher Wang Xing was strongly opposed to the eastward advance, believing that he should seize the opportunity to go west with all his might, attack the Timurid Khanate, and stop fighting the idea of the Ming Dynasty, and should stay away from the Ming Dynasty.

The envoy of the Ming Kingdom has been around three times, and the teacher has been hospitable to him every time, and at the same time he talked about the affairs of his hometown at the table, and when it comes to the emotional place, he can't help but cry and cry, and the messenger is also sorry for it.

After the envoy left, the teacher became entangled and then strongly suggested going west.

Every time.

The teacher thought that Mingguo was invincible, but he didn't think so.

The Ming State is invincible, is it possible that the Timurid Khanate is easy to deal with? The cavalry of the Timurid Khanate was much more than that of the Ming State!

Ming Guo took out so many armor and weapons and let himself go west, this is an obvious plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf, why can't the teacher see it?

And Ming Guo let himself leave the grassland, is there any other plan?

At this moment, Samur reminded himself that the Ming Kingdom was afraid that he would join forces with the Eastern Mongols, didn't Genghis Khan say that as long as the Mongols worked together, they could turn the world into a ranch for the Mongols?

Later, Samur brought an oath from the Great Khan to protect the slaves, and was willing to appoint Jida as the heir of the Great Khan, on the condition that the Eastern and Western Mongols would join forces to attack Tongliao and harass the northeast.

As soon as this condition was announced, it immediately caused an uproar in Warat.

The national teacher Wang Xing, the eldest concubine Otongaowa and some generals strongly objected, believing that although Samur was a noble person, he was only a side concubine, so Jeddah was only a concubine and was not qualified to inherit the position of the great chief; However, there were many generals who thought that it should be accepted, believing that this would lead to the unification of the whole of Mongolia more quickly, but some of them were worried that the Great Khan was playing tricks.

The opposition of the eldest concubine and the national teacher did not move her, but aroused her disgust, but made her think that the teacher cherished her homeland, and the concubine was greedy for power and power, and did not think about the overall situation of Wara. Becoming the Great Khan of all Mongolia has been my father's dream for many years, and if Jeddah can do it, he can also comfort his father's soul in heaven.

Later, after a fierce debate, he made a decision and decided to aid the east.

Before leaving, I went to see the teacher, and the teacher only said one sentence: "At any time, do not leave the armor guard." ”

With this sentence, I went on the road nervously.

However, after arriving at the Khan's court, Dibaonu did not break his promise, he convened the Kuritai Conference, with Changshengtian as a witness, and made Jida the heir, during which several nobles objected, but were driven out of the account by Dibaonu, and these people were disqualified from attending.

During this period, I noticed that Dibaonu was in poor health, coughed often, looked like he was not going to die soon, and he had no heirs, so the only male with the blood of the Golden Family was Jeddah, which made him let go of most of his heart.

Now, however, Eseku suspects that he is a little impulsive, or too impulsive.

More than 70 miles from Tongliao, the striker Su Rile discovered the Ming railroad and captured hundreds of road construction workers, most of whom came from Korea and the Wa Kingdom, with only a small number of Jurchens and Han Chinese.

When he learned that the railroad was made entirely of steel, and that the railroad two hundred miles to the east had been laid, he was alarmed, and immediately ordered the brigade to halt its advance, and sent only a small force to reconnoitre, while reporting to himself at the same time.

After hearing the news, he immediately led his guards and Pegasus to Surile's camp, and saw the legendary railway, but he did not see the train mentioned by the national teacher......

I still remember the shock when I saw the railway for the first time during the day, it was all steel! How many steel knives can this make? How much armor and bows? The Ming people are just spread on the ground, is it the reappearance of the former Emperor Yang of Sui?

But the reality is cruel, Emperor Jianwen is not Emperor Yang of Sui.

The people who built the road told themselves that this kind of railroad track was produced in Anshan in the northeast, and the quantity was very large, and some people even said that if it were not for the fact that the rails were too difficult to transport, the railway would have been laid in Tongliao long ago......

"Great Chief!"

"Oh? Surile, is there something wrong? ”

"It's nothing, when the last general was patrolling the camp, I heard the soldiers say that the big leader was coming here, so I hurried over to take a look, after all, this is the territory of the Ming Kingdom, and the last general is worried that the big leader is in danger."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, come, Su Rile, come and sit!"

Eseku smiled and pointed to the railroad tracks beside him: "Our brothers haven't talked for a long time!" ”

Su Rile was stunned for a moment, looked at Eseku, hesitated slightly, and then hugged his fists and said, "Leader Xie!" ”

"Su Rile, you say, is this crusade a little too hasty?"

Su Rile was stunned for a moment, but immediately straightened up and said, "Great Chief, the last general doesn't understand this, and the last general only knows how to carry out the orders of the great leader!" ”

"Alas!"

Hearing Su Rile's words, Eseku couldn't help but sigh, and said with some amazement: "Since I ascended the throne, many people have been separated from me, the national teacher is like this, and now you are like this!" ”

"......" Su Rile hesitated for a long time, but he didn't know how to answer.

Looking at Su Rile's embarrassed eyes, Eseku turned around and grabbed his shoulder: "Su Rile, I'm not your lord now, just your brother, shouldn't you help me when my brother is in trouble?" ”

Listening to Eseku's words, Su Rile was a little moved, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and then arched his hand and said: "Big leader, the last general can't be said, but there is always a feeling of unsteadiness, I don't know why?" ”

"Not down-to-earth? When? ”

"The closer you get to the Khan Court, the stronger this feeling becomes, and tonight, the uneasiness is even stronger!"

"Is the Great Khan lying to me? Could it be that Samur also ......"

Su Rile did not dare to answer.

After a long time, Su Rile mustered up his courage and said: "Big leader, there will be a word that will not be unhappy, and I hope the big leader will forgive me!" ”

"Say it, I won't blame you!"

"Genghis Khan is indeed a desert dragon, a rare hero on the grassland for thousands of years, but now, the golden family has declined."

"We are in Warat, located in the Moxi grassland, with nearly a million people and hundreds of thousands of knights, with such strength, we can use the sabre and bow and arrow in our hands to fight and conquer, why should we go on a thousand-mile expedition to provoke a great enemy for an illusory promise?"

"And if Warat's strength is damaged, will the Great Khan still keep his promise?"

......

When Eseku was hesitant and confused, in the northwest of Tongliao, more than 5,000 miles away, on the shore of Bosten Lake in the West Sea, there was an old man who was writing hard, and he was Wang Xing, the teacher of Warat.

After all, Wang Xing was old, and after putting down his pen, he suddenly coughed: "Cough, cough, cough!" Ahem......"

Hearing Wang Xing's heart-rending cough, a young woman hurriedly walked in, put a bowl of ginseng soup on the table, and then gently patted Wang Xing's back, and said in a loud voice: "Master, master, don't write, rest early!" ”

"It's okay, I'...... I can hold on! ”

After coughing for a while, Wang Xing finally stopped and leaned weakly on the back of his chair.

When the young woman saw that he was quiet, she turned to him and asked to clean up the papers on the table.

"Don't move!" Wang Xing suddenly shouted.

"Master, you ......" The woman was a little aggrieved.

"Uzhina, come here," Wang Xing sighed, took the woman's hand, and looked up at her apologetically: "This is my testament to the big chief, so you can't read it!" ”

"Missing a watch? You ......" Uzhna opened her mouth, but quickly covered her mouth, but tears still flowed.

"Don't be sad," Wang Xing smiled and patted Urina's hand: "Come, you sit down, I have something to say to you!" ”

"Hmm," Urina wiped her tears, dragged a chair, and sat down in front of Wang Xing.

"Uzhina, I'm afraid I can't wait for the big leader to come back!"

"Master, don't say that, I'm afraid!"

"I escaped from Zhu Yuanzhang's butcher's knife and came to Warat, it can be said that I have been a human being in two lives, and I have nothing to regret. And the kindness of the two generations of big leaders to me, I have also repaid it, and now, what worries me the most is you, and Ben'er! ”

As Wang Xing spoke, he put away the manuscript on the table, put it in an envelope bag, sealed it, and then stamped it on the seal, then took it in his hand, hesitated for a long time, and then handed it to Uzhina, and said in a low voice: "This is my testament to the great chief, if the great chief returns, give this to him; If he doesn't come back within three months, then you burn the letter and run away with the notebook......"

"Escape? Why run away? ”

"......" Wang Xing groaned for a moment, lowered his voice, and said, "If the big leader doesn't come back within three months, then it's likely that he won't come back." ”

"Can't come back, you mean ......" Uzhna covered her mouth in shock.

"Shh Wang Xing hurriedly stopped Uzhina and continued to whisper: "If he can't come back, Warat will inevitably have civil strife, Alatan is only fifteen years old, and the concubine's family is not prominent, and there is no power to help Alatan subdue the tribes. ”

"So, when the time comes, you go to Galu and he will arrange everything for you......"
