Chapter 490: The curtain opens

Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai's trip to the Mobei Grassland has achieved fruitful results, and the Mobei Grassland Alliance leader Haidu not only agreed to the reconciliation with Kublai Khan, but also was willing to send troops to help Kublai Khan exterminate the Ming army, of course, this is not to say that Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai have the ability to turn things upside down, but Kublai Khan's handwritten letter, as well as the conditions given, made Haidu tempted, and Haidu has always believed that the Mongols are the most noble people in the world, how can they be defeated and bullied by the Han people.

What made Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai more helpless was that Haidu showed a handwritten letter written by Kublai Khan to him among many Mongolian tribal leaders, including the Khan of the Chachin Khanate, Bara, in fact, Bara's health was already very bad, and he couldn't support it for a long time.

Haidu took advantage of Kublai Khan's handwritten letter, and although Kublai Khan avoided the most unfavorable matters for him, Haidu seized the opportunity to prove his position as the leader of the Mobei steppe alliance.

When leaving the Mobei grassland, Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai were very clear, the temporary truce between the Dayuan court and Haidu could not be maintained for too long, as for whether Haidu was really willing to send troops, it was still unknown, once the battle between the Mongolian army and the Ming army broke out, it was very likely that Haidu would fish in troubled waters, so Prince Moge used his identity to contact with many tribal leaders in Mobei grass carp, and talked about the peace between the Dayuan court and Haidu, as long as these Mongolian tribes did not support Haidu, Zehaidu, relying on his own strength, is not qualified to fight against the Great Yuan Court at all.

Stabilizing the Mobei grassland is the most critical step, and if this is done well, the Great Yuan court will be able to concentrate on starting the fight with the Ming army, which is the joint development of Kublai Khan and Moge and others.

When Brother Mo and Wuliang Hetai returned to Dadu, it was already February of the twelfth year of the Yuan Dynasty, that is, February of the first year of Lingyuan.

Kublai Khan was very satisfied with this negotiation and sent Habichi, Ahma and others to represent him outside the capital to greet Brother Mo, Wuliang Hetai and others.

After returning to Dadu, Prince Moge and Wuliang did not rest, and immediately entered the palace and began to discuss with the emperor about the crusade against the Ming army.

Tong Weihua, who is in Dadu, has long thought about leaving, especially after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, so many years in Dadu have also made Tong Weihua extremely mature and steady, not only Tong Weihua wants to return to Kaifeng Mansion, even Yao Shu and Shi Tianze and others also want to completely break away from the Dayuan Dynasty and go to Kaifeng Mansion.

However, the letter received by Tong Weihua was still sticking to the capital and providing relevant information for the imperial court.

After the battle of Shandong was basically over and the Mongol army's southern army was completely wiped out by the Ming army, Tong Weihua knew that the emperor was probably going to start attacking the Dayuan court, and the emperor had never taken the initiative to attack the Dayuan court before, but the battle of Shandong was an exception.

The army of Zhengnan was completely wiped out by the Ming army, which shows that the strength of the Dayuan court has suffered a heavy blow, and when facing the Ming Dynasty, there is no advantage.

Tong Weihua, who received the letter and continued to be stationed in Dadu, also began to step up the collection of relevant information.

Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai left Dadu for the Mobei grassland, and Tong Weihua learned this information from Hao Jing and Shi Tianze and others.

There is very little contact between Hao Jing and Shi Tianze, they face Tong Weihua is a one-line contact, Tong Weihua will never meet the two at the same time, this is from the perspective of security, both of them are providing intelligence for the Ming Dynasty, and they also want to be able to go to Kaifeng Mansion to serve, but the hearts of the people are separated from each other, once the two meet, knowing each other's thoughts, whether there will be an accident, this is a matter that no one dares to guarantee.

The information provided by Tong Weihua now is not limited to explaining things clearly, but also has a lot of analysis in it, which includes Tong Weihua's own analysis, as well as the analysis of Hao Jing and Shi Tianze.

After receiving the information that Brother Mo and Wuliang Hetai went to the Mobei Grassland, Tong Weihua and Hao Jing, Shi Tianze and others went through a detailed analysis, Hao Jing and Shi Tianze both believed that this was a decision made by Kublai Khan as a last resort, the purpose was to make the Mobei Grassland stable, so that the Great Yuan Court could not take care of the end of the Great Yuan Dynasty, and as the Great Yuan Court gradually shifted its focus to the destruction of the Great Song Dynasty over the years, the strength of the sea capital in the Mobei Grassland gradually increased, and it was no longer something that the Great Yuan Court could easily exterminate.

However, for the trip to the Mobei grassland between Brother Mo and Wuliang Hetai, Hao Jing and Shi Tianze's analysis of the ending is slightly different.

Hao Jing believes that this negotiation can be successful in the early stage, that is to say, Kublai Khan and Haidu can reach an agreement, but this agreement will not last long, after all, Haidu sees the position of the Mongolian Great Khan, and Haidu has always believed that the position of the Mongolian Great Khan is its own, when Kublai Khan really suffers a heavy blow, Haidu will not stand idly by, and will definitely send troops to truly control the entire steppe.

Shi Tianze believes that Kublai Khan and Haidu can reach an agreement, and it is possible to rush to Kublai Khan's aid to form a blow to the Ming army, after all, Haidu and Kublai Khan are both Mongols, when the Mongolian court encounters a crisis, Haidu must shoot, it is impossible to watch the excitement on the side, the lips are cold, once the Dayuan court and Kublai Khan are completely defeated by the Ming army, then the Haidu of Mobei grass carp will also encounter a major threat.

Hao Jing and Shi Tianze have different views, which is also a very normal situation, Hao Jing is a scholar, and has always focused on scheming and obtaining the greatest benefits, so he believes that when the conditions are ripe, Haidu will never give up the opportunity and will definitely seize it, Shi Tianze is a soldier, and he values commitment, and Shi Tianze's disposition to the Mongols is also very clear.

In the information sent to the imperial court, Tong Weihua supported Shi Tianze's idea, believing that the Mongols had a nature that would allow Haidu to make decisions favorable to Kublai Khan and the Yuan court.

Prince Moge and Wuliang Hetai went to the Mobei Grassland, and the Intelligence Agency also learned the news through the eyes planted in the Mobei Grassland, and this information was transmitted to Wu Shaogang as quickly as possible.

At the same time, the information from Tong Weihua from Dadu was also delivered to Wu Shaogang.

Yuan Shichun served as the deputy privy envoy of the Privy Council, mainly responsible for intelligence work, of course, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Yuan Shichun's jurisdiction over intelligence matters, not only limited to the capital, including a lot of intelligence in the south, is also the focus.

The purpose of Brother Mo and Wuliang Hetai to the Mobei Grassland, Yuan Shichun's analysis is very clear, since the southern army was completely wiped out, the strength of the Dayuan Imperial Court has been greatly reduced, and it has been unable to deal with the situation of two-front warfare.

Yuan Shichun agreed with Tong Weihua's analysis, after all, he was also a soldier, but Li Tingzhi believed that Hao Jing's analysis was reasonable, Kublai Khan and Haidu would form an alliance in the early stage, but such an alliance could not last long, once Kublai Khan suffered a heavy blow, Haidu would take advantage of the situation and seize the position of the Mongolian Great Khan.

The final decision needs to be made by Wu Shaogang.

This decision is related to how the imperial court arranges the troops, which is quite crucial.

If Haidu and Kublai Khan are only a temporary alliance, they are guarding each other, then they cannot form a joint force, on the contrary, in the process of fighting, they will also contain each other, resulting in weakened strength, in this case, the Ming army can concentrate on the bold attack, and strive to completely defeat the Mongol army in the shortest possible time.

If a real alliance between Kublai Khan and Haidu was achieved, it would be something that the Ming army would need to pay special attention to.

The army under the command of Haidu, the combat effectiveness is not weak, they have fought in the Mobei grassland many times, and they always deal with the army sent by Kublai Khan with insufficient troops, after many years of fighting, they are already very brave, if they join the Mongolian army, it will greatly enhance the strength of the Mongolian army.

In this way, the Ming army can not show impatience, must take its time, gradually eliminate the living force of the Mongolian army, and start a tug-of-war with the Mongolian army, after all, the Ming court has controlled the south, and in terms of raising grain and grass, it has too many advantages over the Dayuan court, and this advantage will continue.

Li Tingzhi and Yuan Shichun have different views, their twists and turns are here with Wu Shaogang, from the point of view of time, after Brother Mo and Wuliang Hetai return to Dadu, Kublai Khan and the Yuan court will definitely take action, they will not continue to delay time, so that the Ming court continues to grow.

Therefore, Wu Shaogang must also make an accurate judgment in the shortest possible time.

On such a major judgment, what Wu Shaogang can rely on is himself, and it is impossible for Li Tingzhi and others to make a judgment.

Wu Shaogang will not have the slightest negligence in making such a major judgment, he is already very clear that the prelude to the war between the Ming army and the Mongolian army has slowly begun to open, and the next is a direct contest between the two sides, and the victory or defeat of this contest is related to the fate of both sides, to who will rule the world, and to the people of the world.

The governance of the world by the Dayuan court is a mess, which is clearly recorded in the history books, but the Wu Shaogang who can cross is different, he can govern the world well, at least so that the people can live a good life.

After three days of thinking, Wu Shaogang decided to convene the relevant ministers of civil and military affairs after the early dynasty to discuss the matter and listen to the opinions of the audience.
