Chapter 506: Under the Castle of Fengzhou

180,000 Mongols galloped forward in tribal units.

Hebul Khan was in the midst of the army, and the boy was following him, and at that moment the sound of horses' hooves was heard behind them, and the horses of one tribe caught up with their horses.

"Where are you, Hebul?" There was a shouting from behind.

"It's a sudden." Hebul Khan was stunned for a moment, and looked behind him, a sneer on his face.

Hebul Khan was the Great Khan of the Qiyan tribe, and this Shuzha Husi was the Great Khan of the Kereh tribe, another important part of the Mongols! Of course, the Great Khan of this era and the Great Khan of the later Genghis Khan era cannot be compared at all, the two of them are nominally the Great Khan of the two major tribes, but in fact they are only the leaders of the largest tribe of the two major tribes! Hebul Khan has more than 20,000 people under his command, and so does Zahusi!

In the Mongolian steppe, to be able to become the head of the tribe, on the one hand, you must have excellent blood, and on the other hand, you must also have real talent and real learning! Both Hebul Khan and Kuzha Husi were outstanding people in the steppe and were revered by the Mongols.

"Hebule, I heard that there is an army of Han people in Fengzhou City, is it true?" After a while, the Great Khan of the Kerebe suddenly came to the side of Hebul Khan, arched his hand, and said.

Suddenly, Zahusi looked more than ten years older than Hebul Khan, and his body looked quite strong, but his hair and beard were already gray! The living conditions on the steppe are very difficult, and the life expectancy of the Mongols is very short.

"Yes, there is an army of Han people in the area of Fengzhou, about forty or fifty thousand people." Hebul Khan Road.

"Are there any other Han Chinese armies around?" Suddenly, he thought about it.

"Never again! If we want to go south to Zhongjing and rescue the Jurchens there, we must pass through Fengzhou! To the west is a desert that cannot be crossed! The road to the east is rugged, and you need to make a detour of more than 500 miles to get there! The Han Chinese occupy Fengzhou, and we must take it down. Hebul Khan said.

"Good! I just don't know if we can take Fengzhou City? We are on the grassland, and we have never attacked a city! Only occasionally went south to snatch some food from some villages and towns. Suddenly, he thought about it.

"Haha, we didn't attack the city before, not because we couldn't beat it, but because we didn't have the need to attack the city! I've heard the Jurchens say that the walls of Fengzhou City are very low, just a small city, and we can climb it with our bare hands! So, don't worry about not being able to beat down. Hebul Khan said.

"When we went south, we were supposed to join forces with the Jurchens to enter the Central Plains! But now that the Han people in the Central Plains have gone north, we still need to rescue the Jurchens, I always feel that something is wrong! The three of us may not be able to succeed in joining forces to enter the Central Plains, so I don't think we should get involved in this troubled water! Suddenly, he hesitated for a while and said.

"No!" Hebul Khan was taken aback and said hurriedly.

Suddenly, Zahusi stared at Hebul Khan, waiting for Hebul Khan to answer.

"We consumed a lot of supplies in order to go south! Many of the cattle and sheep in the tribe were killed by us and made into jerky! This winter, the old people and children in the tribe may not have enough food to eat, and the reason why they made such a sacrifice is precisely because they hope that their sons and daughters will be able to bring back food and treasure! If we get nothing back, what will the elderly, children, and women of the tribe think of us? Can we continue to be this Great Khan? Hebul Khan said.

"This ......" suddenly Zha Hu was stunned and stayed there.

"We Mongolians have been galloping on the steppe for hundreds of years! For hundreds of years, we have all lived a bitter cold life! Look at the Khitans, they are the same as us, they also galloped on the grassland at the beginning, but they established a country two hundred years ago, and then they defeated the Han people, robbed the Han people of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, and they forced the Han people to pay tribute to them every year! The Khitan country is strong, no one is their opponent, and the life of the Khitan people is far better than before, they can eat and drink well, and live a rich life! Look at the Jurchens again, they originally lived in the mountains, and their lives were extremely difficult, but under the leadership of Wanyan Aguta, they first destroyed the Liao State, and then went south into the Central Plains, and the Han people were not their opponents, and the Jurchens have now become human beings! Therefore, if we want to completely change the situation of our Mongols, we need to go south, we need to fight, we need to loot! Since we have come out, there is no reason to go back! Hebul Khan said.

Suddenly, Zagoth nodded.

"The Khitans and Jurchens can build strong countries, and we Mongols can naturally do too! I fantasize that one day, we Mongols can rule all the steppes, rule the Central Plains, and the south of the Yangtze River, whether it is the Khitans, the Jurchens or the Han Chinese, we are the slaves of the Mongols! At that time, we Mongols were a first-class nation, the Khitans and Jurchens were second only to us, and the Han people were the most inferior! We Mongols can eat and drink spicy food, we can enslave all those who disobey us, and we can kill those inferior people at will, just like a donkey! You and I rule over hundreds of millions of inferior peoples and make them all slaves! Suddenly, don't you feel excited? Don't you feel your blood boiling? The whip pointed forward.

Suddenly, a hint of excitement slowly appeared on his face, and he nodded immediately.

"For more than 200 years, the Han people have been extremely weak, anyone can bully them, and we Mongolians can naturally do too! Moreover, now that the strength of the Khitan and Jurchen has been greatly damaged, it is the best opportunity for our Mongols to go south to show their national strength and rule the Central Plains! Suddenly, after defeating the Han people in Zhongjing, let's go south into Yanyun and the Central Plains, and seize these tens of millions of miles of flowers and mountains, and then let all our Mongolians come to Yanyun and the Central Plains and start enslaving the Quartet, do you think it's okay? Hebul Khan laughed.

"Good! I didn't expect you to have such ambitions, you are all Mongolians, and I won't lose to you! Suddenly, Zha Husi looked into the distance, his eyes became firm, and said.

At the moment, 180,000 Mongols continued to move south.

Because they are tribes, their armies are very scattered, and the Mongols can be seen within dozens of miles.

******

In the afternoon, the Mongol army came to the area of the Shalamulun River.

The weather was cold, and the Shalamulun River had frozen, but the ice was too thin for the Mongol cavalry to pass through.

Hebul Khan had no choice but to order the Mongols to build pontoon bridges over the river.

"Great Khan, there is a Song army on the other side?" At this time, I said violently.

"Song Jun? How can it be? Aren't they in Toyosu? Why are you here? Ghabl Khan said in disbelief.

He put his right hand on his eyes and looked into the distance, just like Sun Wukong, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Yes, there is indeed Song Jun!" But it doesn't seem like there are a lot of them! Let's cross the river immediately, and then destroy these Song troops! ”

After half an hour, more than a dozen small pontoon bridges were erected, and the Mongols headed across the river.

"Han people! It's Han! Someone saw Song Jun in the distance, shouting loudly, and his voice was full of excitement!

"Rush! Destroy these Han Chinese! Ghobl Khan laughed.

On the opposite side is also the steppe, and Hebul Khan led 180,000 Mongols to chase the Song army in the distance!

After chasing for a while, Hebul Khan gradually judged the number of the Song army, which was about 5,000 people.

The Song army did not dare to engage them at all, and saw from a distance that they had begun to flee, and the Mongols were constantly chasing and killing them behind.

"The Han people are really cowardly and cowardly! Don't dare to fight us at all! After chasing for an hour, the Mongols did not catch up with the Song army, and Hebul Khan spat on the ground and said disdainfully.

"The Han people can't even beat the Khitans and Jurchens, how dare they fight with our Mongols? Great Khan, our Mongolian sons are only because of lack of food, no weapons, and endless fighting with each other, so this is why the Khitans and Jurchens have become bigger! In fact, in the past winter, we also went south to grab food, and the ordinary Khitans and Jurchens were not our opponents! "I said.

That's a good point! If I hadn't known that we were invincible in the world, I wouldn't have led the soldiers and horses south! Let's go, keep the pursuit! I don't believe I can't catch up with these cowardly Han people! Hebul Khan sneered.

He continued to lead his men and horses in pursuit, but until dark, they did not catch up with the Song army.

The Song army did not seem to stay for a moment, but fled towards the south.

The Mongols rested on the steppe for the night, and at night Ghabl Khan was worried that the Song army might harass him, but he proved to be too worried.

"Han people, Han people, they are really an incompetent race! Walk! Continue south! Hebul Khan laughed.

They continued to the south, and in the afternoon of this day, they came to the location of Yikun Prefecture.

Yikun Prefecture is a small city located between Raozhou and Fengzhou.

This small city had also been occupied by the Song army, but when the Mongol front wing had just appeared, the Song army had already fled from Yikun Prefecture in a hurry.

The Mongols pursued behind, but unfortunately the Song army just fled and did not stay at all, plus the number of Song troops was not very large, and the Mongols still did not catch up.

Hebul Khan led 180,000 Mongols to loot in Yikun Prefecture, but unfortunately this Yikun Prefecture was too small and the supplies in it were too small, so the Mongols had limited income. However, for the barren Mongols, the materials obtained in this small city were also a great wealth.

"In more than a hundred miles, Fengzhou is located! It's several times bigger than Yikun Prefecture, and we can get more supplies when we get there! Of course, these places are not as good as the Central Plains, which is where the real fat is! Don't rest today, let's go to Fengzhou overnight! Hebul Khan grinned as he grabbed a string of pearls in his hand.

At dusk, 180,000 Mongols continued south.

In the early morning of the eighth day of October, when the sky was dark, the Mongols came to the city of Fengzhou one after another.
