Chapter 584: The Enemy of the Enemy Is the Ally
@@@
Hassan is fifty-two years old today, with slightly gray hair, high cheekbones, and a short, thick beard on his palate, like steel needles, making him look like a stone sculpture.
Hassan's full name is Hassan? Peach Blossom Stone? Bogda Khan. In ordinary times, the people of the Black Khanate called it Peach Blossom Stone Khan.
The word Taohuashi means Chinese, or refers to the Han people.
Hassan calls himself the king of China, and in addition to his yearning for the East, he does not have the intention of longing for the Central Plains of the Prancing Horse. At this moment, he was sitting in a big tent on the west bank of the Wuyu River, receiving envoys from the Kingdom of Jin.
Wanyan Wu begged to buy a dusty servant, he was ordered to take two hundred guards, one person and three horses, day and night to run to the black sweat, fortunately, he is only twenty-five years old today, born between the white mountains and black waters, and grew on horseback, even so, when he arrived in Zawa, he was also sore.
But he still tried his best to put away his fatigue, his face was calm and calm, he was the great Jin State's Zhi Ban Bo, and his status was second only to Wanyan Aguta, this time he personally sent the Black Khanate, which shows how much attention the Jin State attaches to this.
Hassan couldn't help but secretly praise Wanyan Wu for his calm performance, it seemed that the rapid rise of the Jin army was not fortunate, and he asked indifferently: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu came to find Ben Da Khan this time, I don't know what you are doing?" ”
Before Yan Wu could answer, a black Khan general suddenly rushed in outside the big tent, rushed in front of Hassan and reported loudly: "Great Khan, the grenades of the Song army are too terrible, our army has suffered heavy casualties, Great Khan, let the soldiers retreat and rest............."
No one expected that Hassan's movements with slightly spotted hair were as fast as lightning, he pulled out the crescent scimitar, and the knife light disappeared in a flash, and the head of the general kneeling in front of him fell to the ground in an instant, and blood sprayed directly to Hassan's feet.
Hassan took out a piece of snow-white silk and wiped the blood from the sword, and calmly instructed his subordinates: "Tell me the will, let General Kamai succeed Valtteri and continue to lead the army to attack the city, and Ben Great Khan will give him another 10,000 horses within two days." Unable to capture Khotan. Valtteri is his role model. ”
The heralds under the tent hurriedly went to give the order, and several guards rushed forward to carry Valtteri's body away, and at the same time put on a clean carpet.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu can continue." Hassan's face didn't fluctuate in the slightest, as if he hadn't done anything just now.
And Wanyan Wu begged for the same, as if he hadn't seen anything, he replied solemnly: "I came to meet the Great Khan this time, presumably the Great Khan can also guess my intention." There will be no beating around the bush here;
As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is the friend, the Song State has been thriving in recent years, first destroying the Western Xia, and then destroying Jiaozhi, and now gathering the Western Regions. The war against the Great Khan, the Song State's intention to invade and occupy the Western Regions has been revealed, and it may even be like the Tang Dynasty, and it is not strange that the soldiers are pointing to the river. ”
Hassan picked up the gold bottle and asked Wanyan Wu to buy a drink. Then he smiled and said, "King Chu is just exaggerating." My Black Khanate is not Western Xia, and I can handle it as much as anyone wants. Moreover, the Liao State was defeated, and the Song State was busy seizing the land in the north, so I am afraid that it would not be able to take care of the Western Regions for a while, and the King of Chu should be worried about the Jin State. ”
"Great Khan, we don't have to compete with each other, for our two countries, now cooperation is two benefits, and division is two harms; It is good that the Song State wants to compete with our Dajin for the territory of the Liao State, but now that tens of thousands of troops in the construction of the Song State have occupied the land east of Khotan, it can be seen that the Song State will never give up the Western Regions;
If my Dajin avoids its edge and retreats to the north of Jinshan, after the Song State takes all the land south of Shangjing into its arms, who will he fancy next, the Great Khan should be very clear in his heart, will the Great Khan be confident that he can block the Song army's million-strong army? ”
"King Chu doesn't need to say much, you just talk about how our two countries can cooperate."
Hearing Hassan's words, Wanyan Wu Qimai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, now Dajin is creating, the people's hearts are not attached, the Song State is aggressive, and the soldiers are flourishing for a while, if you can't persuade the Black Khan to contain the Song State with all your might, Dajin may not be easy to deal with the Song State alone, which is why Wanyan Wu Qimai rushed to the Western Regions.
"The Great Khan, the Great Khan was used to weaken the ministries in the construction of the Great Khan, and there was a great intention of embezzling them together, how could the ministries not have resentment, but they were small and weak, and they dared not speak out if they dared to be angry, and they did not hide it from the Great Khan, before coming here, I had already gone to Xizhou to visit the Jin Yihu of Vijab."
Hassan was very curious when he heard this, and couldn't help asking, "His Royal Highness the King of Chu has seen Vijab's jin?" ”
"Yes, the Xizhou Uighurs have been killed by a knife in the construction of a kind of Jianzhong this time, and they have suffered heavy losses, I will go and tell the stakes to Vijab's Jin, Vijab's Jin is already clear, and the Song State will attack Xizhou sooner or later, but all along, the Great Khan seems to be eyeing Xizhou, if Xizhou is at odds with the Song State, it will be attacked from both sides, and the Great Khan understands what I mean?"
"Are you saying that Vijab's Jin is willing to form an alliance with us?"
"Hehe, unless Bijab's Jin is willing to be annexed by the Song army."
Hassan was overjoyed when he heard this, if the Uighurs of Xizhou were willing to defect, it would be of extraordinary significance, the energy of the Song State was now contained in Liaodong, and most of the troops in Guazhou and other places were brought out by the cultivation, and the defense of the entire Hexi Corridor was extremely empty;
If the Western Uighurs suddenly defected at this time, it would not be impossible to immediately advance and capture Guasha and other states, or even the entire Hexi Corridor.
At that time, the 20,000 lone troops in the construction of the plant were trapped in Khotan, and they were separated from the Song State for thousands of miles, and they would undoubtedly collapse.
At that time, the Tibetan tribes and the yellow-headed Uighurs will definitely follow suit.
In this way, the Black Khan can not only recapture the lost territory such as Khotan, but also carve up the Hexi Corridor with the various ministries, and then all the ministries will offend the Song State, so they can only twist into a rope to resist the subsequent counterattack of the Song State, and the Black Khan is far behind the ministries, what do you have to worry about?
Thinking of this, Hassan said happily: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu is really clever, this Great Khan will send people to Xizhou, as long as the Jin of Vijab is willing to form an alliance, this Great Khan not only guarantees not to invade Xizhou in the future, but also is willing to return the land west of Qiuzi to the Jin of Bijab." ”
"Hahaha, the Great Khan is really a cheerful person, the Great Khan may not know, in order to say that the Jin of Vigab is also protected, my Dajin even ceded a large area of land west of Hangai Mountain to the Jin of Vijab."
Hassan smiled silently when he heard this, Wanyan Wu begged to buy it seemed generous, but in fact it was just generosity to others, and now the Jin State was too busy to deal with the Song State, and the power was far from touching Hang Aishan, saying that it was to cede the land of Shangjing Road of the former Liao State west of Hang Aishan to Xizhou. It's just because the Jin Kingdom has no time to take care of this extreme west.
But that's it. Vijab's Jin has gained so many benefits, and he is worried that he will be annexed by the Song army in the future, so it will be difficult not to defect.
Once the Uighurs in Xizhou defected, Guasha and other states near Yumen Pass were empty of troops and would definitely be lost, which might lead to the loss of the entire Hexi Corridor, and the Song State would have a drama to watch at that time.
Hassan and Wanyan Wu Begging conspired in a large tent west of the Wuyu River. Under the city of Khotan, east of the Wuyu River, at this time, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the arrows were intertwined like rain.
Standing in the watchtower in the west of the city, watching the army of Black Khan shouting the name of Allah and rushing to the city walls, Hassan once again called the attack on Khotan in the name of jihad. Under the call of Allah, the Black Khan soldiers are not afraid of death to launch round after round of siege battles, as if they never tire away.
There were only 18,000 horses in his hands, and after a fierce battle in the past few days, more than 2,000 people were killed and wounded, and with the arrival of Hassan in person, the armies from all over the Black Khanate were continuously transferred, and at least nearly 20,000 corpses were thrown under the city. But the siege army is increasing. Today, Hassan's total strength is no less than 60,000.
And that's not the most important thing. Fatally, the people in the city who believed in the Heavenly Sect took advantage of the Black Khan's army to attack the city. Constant rebellion, arson and sabotage, made the Song army difficult both internally and externally;
Although many rebels were killed, it still did not deter these believers who had been brainwashed by Allah, and unless the slaughter of the city was ordered, this rebellion was always banned, which dealt a great blow to the morale of the Song army.
When Chong Jianzhong first rushed to Khotan, there was not much military capital that could be carried, and now after many fierce battles, the grenades have just run out, and there are few bullets left.
Now the defense of the city has been fought entirely with cold weapons, which further increased the casualties of the Song army.
There is one more thing that makes the seed construction a headache, that is, the grain and grass in the city will be exhausted, last winter Khotan has just been captured by the Tibetan army once, the city materials were plundered, after a few months, the seed construction in the city again captured Khotan, the shortage of materials in the city can be imagined.
The location of Khotanese City is somewhat special, sandwiched in a triangle between the Wuyu River and the Baiyu River, not to mention the Black Khan army attacking the city day and night, even if it is lax, if the Song army wants to plunder supplies, it must cross one of the rivers, which adds a lot of difficulty.
Yao Gu took 10,000 reinforcements and marched to the city of Keriya in the east of Khotan, but was blocked by Hassan with 8,000 men and horses, and now he is trapped in the city of Keriya and cannot advance an inch.
It's not that Yao Gu is incompetent, it's really that the coalition forces of all departments are scared, and they are frightened when they meet the Black Khan army.
Now he had to send people back to Yochang City and transfer the 2,000 Song troops stationed there to reinforce them.
As for what to do with the singing city, I can't care so much about it now.
The connection between Kriya and Khotanese City was cut off, and Yao Gu didn't know if Chong Jianzhong was planning a counterattack, but Yao Gu knew that if he didn't have one or two thousand Song troops in hand, he would not be able to do anything, and now it would be good to be able to keep Kriya City from being breached.
Khotan is too far away from the Great Song Dynasty, and now the Great Song Dynasty is in the Northern Expedition, so they have no time to take care of the Western Regions, and the previous planting and construction of the various departments are too miserable, Yao Gu They are now not only short of soldiers, but also lack weapons, food and grass;
If you use regular soldiers and Hassan to wear hard, even if you win, it can only be a miserable victory, and it seems that you have to surprise again!
But how to come out of this strange soldier, Yao Gu couldn't think of any good ideas for a while.
By this time, Hassan's envoy had already sent to Xizhou............
