Chapter 376: The Enemy of Fate One
Southern Mongolia, eastern part of the Bula Sichuan steppe.
At this time, it is the crisp season of autumn, and even the sky seems extraordinarily bright and far-reaching at this time. The green grassland is covered with yurts as far as the eye can see. A flock of sheep like white clouds flows on the hillside. If there were no Daxu military flags fluttering everywhere, and there would be no cavalry patrolling in large groups, the whole world would really be a bit like a landscape painting.
In the center of the large yurt guard, there is a particularly tall gold-domed tent, in front of the tent, in two rows of nine Sulu ingot spears, like a trident under the spear head, there are strands of sheepskin braided. Together, these nine Sulu ingot spears are the nine white silk that symbolizes the supreme power of the Mongol Great Khan!
And this gate is set up with the golden tent of Jiuxu, which is the royal tent of Kublai Khan, the self-proclaimed Great Khan of Mongolia!
Kublai Khan and his 50,000 Mongol army, after a long journey, had arrived in the Bula Steppe from the Golden Lotus River Steppe, where Ali Buge's troops were stationedβat this time, there was also the same gold-domed tent and nine white silk guards in the western part of the Bula Steppe, which was guarded by another 50,000 Mongol troops.
The most powerful force of the Great Mongolian State, at a time when Yanyun and Liaodong were already in danger, and the Han marquis in the north raised their anti-flags, gathered on this distant Bulachuan grassland.
However, at this moment, there is no trace of tension in the Bulachuan grassland, and there is no trace of the impending great war. The two armies that supported the two Mongol Great Khans were quite friendly to each other.
In fact, the vast majority of these 100,000 Mongol warriors came from the central Urus under the Great Khan. There is no hatred between the soldiers on both sides, and many of them are still relatives of each other, and some fathers and brothers support Ali Buge. The children followed Kublai Khan, and some of them met Weng's son-in-law on the battlefield. Even the Great Khan who met with two swordsmen. They are all the same mother's compatriots - all of them are the sons of Tuolei.
This battle for the throne is basically a wall of brothers in the tow and thunder series. And it was also at the critical moment when the powerful enemy of Great Mongolia emerged! This kind of civil war, which is very likely to end the hegemony of the Great Mongolians, naturally does not win the hearts of the people (the Mongols). Therefore, most of the generals on both sides of the war are happy to hear the news of the peace talks - they fight each other in the unpopulated grassland and have little interest, where can it be compared with burning and killing in the Han land? Therefore, except for Kublai Khan and Ali Buge's henchmen, most of the generals are looking forward to ending the war as soon as possible, and they don't care much about who wins or loses.
Anyway, a descendant of Genghis Khan came out to be the Great Khan, no matter who he is!
"Great Khan, Ali Buge has agreed to your conditions."
Within the Golden Horde. Grand Lama Phags-pa is reporting to Kublai Khan on the progress of the peace talks. Ali Buge also believed in Lamaism and respected this monk very much, so Pas-pa became the intermediary between the two sides in the peace talks.
"Hmph, he can't refuse!" Kublai Khan's face was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "If we continue to fight, the two thieves, Chen Dexing and Li Pu, will occupy the northern Han land." When the time comes, he will defeat me, and he will be able to regain the Northland from Chen and Li? If you can't take back the Northlands, what will the Central Ulus eat? What do the four kings of the host eat? β
Whether it is Li Pu or Chen Dexing. It's better than Zhao Guan's family to fight! If the northern land fell into their hands, Kublai Khan and Ali Buge would have no way at all. At that time, the central Ulus and the Ulus of the four kings of the host country, at least two million Mongol Tartars will have to suffer together.
This Great Khan is a big sweat, and it's also a hassle - so many warriors who are used to eating are still willing to live a bitter life with them? Are you still willing to herd sheep and cattle to feed the court of the Great Khan?
It's a pipe dream!
And. Kublai Khan's peace terms were obviously beneficial to Ali Buge. First of all, Ali Buge can't beat Kublai Khan now. Kublai Khan had the strength of the Han Marquis in the north, and he fought the way of heavy infantry and light cavalry. There are also a large number of H-drug weapons in the army. It clearly had the upper hand in the previous contests.
Second, Kublai Khan ceded Shaanxi, Gongchang and the Western Xia homeland. Let Ali Buge get a part of the Han land. It can also border the Southern Song Dynasty. Whether it is to exchange markets with the Southern Song Dynasty or to extort New Year's coins, Ali Buge's financial pressure can be greatly relieved - the 60,000 Mongolian army is only a gold beast, if it weren't for Jia Rudao who gave 3 million Guan Sui coins to the generals of the Mongolian Western Route Army who were pro-Ali Buge, Ali Buge was poor and died.
Again, Kublai Khan handed over Li Pu, who was easier to deal with in the Chen-Li alliance, to Ali Buge, and went to beat Chen Dexing's hard stubble himself. In fact, Brother Ali Bu doesn't need to fight Li Pu at all, as long as he garrisons Shaanxi, deters Shi Tianze, and asks him not to defect to support Li Pu, with Li Pu's character, he will definitely hesitate for a while. Maybe it will also march into Henan in order to support Shi Tianze......
The most important thing is that after Ali Buge got the land of Ganshan, he could turn his face with Kublai Khan at any time!
This alliance is entirely based on Ali Buge's character. Such an alliance, if Brother Ali refuses again, he really has a problem with his brain.
After listening to Paspa's report, Kublai Khan smiled helplessly and said with a sigh: "Master, go and repay Ali Buge, and in 10 days, I will personally go to his golden tent to swear with him." Bring only ...... 500 Guards! β
Ba Si Pa was stunned and looked at Kublai Khan blankly: "Great Khan, only take 500 people with you?" In case ......"
Kublai Khan smiled coldly: "There will be no what's in case, Brother Ali Buge is my own brother, how can I not understand his personality?" The eagle on the grassland, the Khan King who is full of words, and the heroic man Ali Buge...... How could he do despicable and nasty things? β
β¦β¦
The Grand Lama didn't say anything more, but just smiled and retired. When I came out of the Golden Horde, I saw Liu Bingzhong and Yao Shu, two Hanchens, hurriedly coming. The lama folded his hands at them and made a Buddhist salute. asked with a smile: "The two of you are in such a hurry, is there any news from Yidu?" β
"What's the news from Yidu?" Yao Shu looked disdainful, "Since Li Pu can prepare for thirty years, he won't fight for a moment." β
Yidu Li Pu's reaction was naturally slow. Thirty years of "farming" have allowed him to develop a stable temperament that takes his time step by step. This character is really not suitable for rebellion and hegemony in troubled times.
"It's news from Liaodong!" Liu Bingzhong said, "There is an urgent report from Liaodong, King Tachar Khan and Chen Dexing have arrived in Liaodong, I am afraid that there will be a decisive battle before winter comes." β
"Oh." The lama nodded, noncommittal. He naturally hoped that Mongolia would defeat Chen Dexing, but seeing that Kublai Khan attached so much importance to Chen Dexing, and did not hesitate to make peace with Ali Bugeyan and concentrate his forces on dealing with this person, he knew that it would be difficult for Tachar to win.
"The poor monk heard that Chen Dexing can fly to the sky and escape to the earth, and he is an immortal, but is there such a thing?" The lama asked again. Rather than the rise or fall of the state, lamas are more concerned with religion. Chen Dexing and Mingjiao teamed up to make a Tiandao sect, making it clear that they wanted to steal business with Lamaism! This is the principle of the enemy, and it is also common in the religious circles.
"What immortals...... pretending to be a god and a ghost, and even creating a cult, it is clear that he is cutting himself off from the world! Yao Shu shook his head, his face full of righteous indignation.
Speaking of which, Chen Dexing is really a bit out of line! Chen Dexing claimed to be the king of the Ming Dynasty and established Taoism, which clearly wanted to kick Confucianism aside. This kind of practice is not to say that it is self-isolating from the world, at least it is self-isolating from the people who are all over the world.
The lama smiled slightly, and made another Buddhist salute: "The poor monk also thinks so, this Chen Dexing must be pretending to be a ghost." β
The lama is also good at pretending to be a god and playing ghosts, although he doesn't understand how Chen Dexing's tricks changed. But it's pretty sure that flying into the sky or something, it must be a trick.
"The poor monk still has something to do, so he won't accompany him." The Phags-pa Lama and the Taoist priests have never been right, but they have nothing to do with the Confucian scholars. After a polite greeting, he turned and left to go about his own business.
"Great Khan, news from Liaodong ......" entered Kublai Khan's Golden Horde, and Liu Bingzhong and Yao Shu immediately reported the urgent report of the Dalu Huachi Governor's Mansion in Liaodong Zhulu to Kublai Khan.
"Chen Dexing......" Kublai Khan sat behind the desk with a golden sword, listening to the report, but frowned slightly, "It's okay, wait for the matter of Lechuan, let's find a way to clean up the two thieves Chen Dexing and Li Pu!" β
Liu Bingzhong and Yao Shu glanced at each other, and Yao Shu said, "Great Khan, there is a reply from Brother Ali Buge?" β
Kublai Khan nodded and said, "I have already agreed, I will personally lead 500 people to join him in the near future, you ...... Don't follow it, so as not to get in the way. β
Getting in the way? What does that mean?
The two advisors were stunned for a moment, and then they thought of something at the same time, and their faces changed slightly.
Liu Bingzhong said in a low voice: "500 people are sure? β
"50 is enough!" Kublai Khan said lightly.
"But Brother Ali has an army of 50,000." Yao Shu was a little worried.
Kublai Khan shook his head: "That's not Ali Buge's army, that's the army of the Central Ulus, and it's the entire Golden Family, not Ali Buge's personal...... They won't be bad for me. β
"The Great Khan must be careful after all......" Liu Bingzhong reminded. This was just a matter of routine, and although Kublai Khan used him and Yao Shu as his masterminds, he was by no means obedient to his words. Especially in Mongolian affairs, the two of them have little say.
Yao Shu also said: "Just in case, the Great Khan might as well bring all the little Tianlei sent by Yanjing." β
Kublai Khan nodded: "This has been arranged. He paused, "It's always winter when I never go back to Jinlianchuan, and if I want to go back to the Central Plains, I'm afraid I will have to go back to the Central Plains next summer...... At that time, Chen Dexing should stabilize southern Liaoning and Goryeo, Li Pu, he will probably be able to take the land of Qingxu and Jiyan. What are we going to do about it? β
Liu Bingzhong said: "The Great Khan can be called the emperor and practice Han law." β
Kublai Khan looked at Yao Shu again, and Yao Shu thought about it: "You can also open the imperial examination to take scholars!" (To be continued......)
