Chapter 32: Discerning Eyes Are Difficult to Discern (3)
The blood-stained cavalry returned to the foot of the hill and lined up in two rows, and the cavalry with beetles slowly paced past them.
Qianhu raised the short staff in his hand and shouted, "Whose subordinates are you! β
The cavalrymen raised their arms in unison and shouted: "We are the masters of the world, the subordinates of the Mongol Great Khan!" β
"Who are you fighting for!"
"We are going to cut the black water for the sake of the Great Khan and dig up people's hearts!"
"Who are you?"
"We are bald flowers! We are bald flowers! β
The cheers were full of extreme pride and courage.
Several people on the hillside immediately watched this scene from beginning to end. Hao Jing turned sideways and smiled at Song Yichang: "Mr. Song, how are these children of my bald flower better than the military horses of the Southern Dynasty?" β
Song Yichang shook his head and sighed: "When it comes to killing unarmed people, the soldiers and horses of the Southern Dynasty are also so brave, I have heard that the cowardly Xue under the Great Khan's tent is the best soldier in the world, as long as there are 10,000 people, it is enough to sweep the eight wildernesses, if the prince wants to show me this, it is really worth my painstaking efforts to come all the way to defect." β
Hao Jing felt that his face was a little hot, he had been in the Mongol army for a long time, and gradually even he regarded killing as a habit, and he didn't find it too difficult to accept the training of using the captured people to hone his murderous heart recently.
was ridiculed by the Confucian scholars of the Southern Dynasty like this, and it was inevitable that he felt ashamed.
"The Northern Army started from Mobei, how can the habit of drinking blood and being violent and murderous be cut off for a while?" He said to Song Yichang: "But you and I both know the Dao, and now the luck is on the side of the Mongols. With their unity and strength, it is only a matter of time before they sweep the world. Yichang may not know the road, the territory of the Great Khan has expanded to the west for thousands of miles, starting from Helin, it takes a fast horse to gallop day and night for a year to reach the border of the West, ancient and modern powers, Qin, Han, Sui and Tang, how can I have the prosperity of Mongolia, the strength of the country? β
"What Yichang has to do now is to work with me to assist King Kublai Khan, continue to promote the kingization among the Mongols, so that these overlords of the world who have just gotten rid of the state of cuteness and barbarism will slowly accept the teachings of the saints, understand the importance of etiquette and law, and let them understand that governing the world is not only by slaughter, but also by practicing benevolence and righteousness, and only by doing so is the most realistic way to save the world. Like the kind of flashy and empty talk of the Southern Dynasty, who do not know the time of the day to fight against the general trend, in addition to killing more lives and damaging the yin virtue of Zhao and Song in vain, what good is it for the people of the world? β
"Exactly." Song Yichang said: "It is precisely because I saw these that I took the opportunity to get the opportunity to meet King Kublai Khan with the help of this small incident of rescuing the Buddha of the Thousand Faces. β
"The North is in need of people like you." Hao Jing's tone was quite sincere: "The Mongols have no shortage of warriors who are good at fighting, but they know too little about governing the people, especially how to govern the people of the Central Plains. β
The two of them had walked to the foot of the mountain while talking, where there was a huge Ao Bao, and two quivers were guarding the Ao Bao Qian, and when they saw Hao Jing coming, they raised their hands together.
"Come in," Hao Jing dismounted and lifted the tent himself: "The king has been waiting for you for a long time." β
There was only one person sitting in the tent, this was a richly dressed and tall Mongolian aristocratic young man, with a typical Mongol-style broad face, a pair of tiger eyes exuding a sharp light, Song Yichang even if he had never seen Kublai Khan himself, at this time he also deeply felt that this person must be the enemy of the first number one of the Great Song Dynasty in the future.
When Kublai Khan saw Hao Jing walking into the tent with Song Yichang, he smiled happily, raised the jug with his own hand, poured a glass of mare's milk wine, stood up and brought it to Song Yichang.
"People on the grassland must present a glass of wine when they meet guests from afar, Song You are a friend of Hao Jing, and you are also the most honored guest of our Mongolians, please drink this glass of wine, let's have a good talk."
Song Yichang took the wine glass, raised his head and drank it all, the violent commotion of the mare's milk wine churned in his stomach, making him feel extremely disgusting.
No wonder these barbarians on the grassland were overjoyed by the steaming wine in the Central Plains as soon as they entered the Central Plains.
Looking at the strange expression on Song Yichang's face, Kublai Khan Ha Lu laughed: "You people in the Central Plains are not used to drinking this kind of mare's milk wine with the smell of horses, this is a strong taste that can only be tasted by grassland men." β
He took his glass, turned back to his seat, and said, "I heard that you first caught our spy and then secretly rescued him, what is the matter?" β
There is nothing worth saying, after Song Yichang assisted Daye County to capture the Buddha of a Thousand Faces, he went out of the county town and went around a long way, and ambushed on the official road leading to Huangzhou in Daye County.
"We Mongolians value the most important heroes who are loyal to the Great Khan, like you, who first worked for the Sinan people and then came to help us." Kublai Khan's face suddenly showed an ambiguous expression: "We don't dare to accept it rashly. β
Song Yichang looked up and said calmly: "Back then, there was a well-known archer in the Taichi Wu Tribe, who was extremely brave in the battle with the Qiyan Tribe, and once shot countless Mongolian soldiers, and even Temujin Khan's beloved horse was shot to death. I don't know what happened to him. β
If a country wants to develop and expand, it is impossible to succeed by relying only on the talents of one country and one county, and in such an era, the strong man who can stand out must have an inclusive heart.
Kublai Khan laughed loudly and said: "You Sinan people always like to talk around the corner, yes, Genghis Khan reused Jebe, but Jebe is the best warrior on the steppe, he can shoot the arrow into the wooden bowl flying in the air, catch the flying feather arrow with his bare hand, break the arrow and shoot it back, and still be able to shoot through the enemy's chest!" What ability do you have to make the Great Khan reuse you? β
"Jebe's courage can kill ten people and hundreds of people," Song Yichang accentuated his tone and said word by word: "The technique I taught His Highness is the imperial technique that can kill 100,000 million people." β
After Kublai Khan listened to the reluctant translation of the interpreter, he was puzzled: "What is 'Shu'?" β
Song Yichang said: "Genghis Khan went south to attack the Jin State, fought desperately and bloodily in Yehuling, and defeated the enemy of 300,000, this is 'force', and it is a brave force on the battlefield. However, he sent people to Yelu Liuge's official position, sent people to contact the powerful people in Shandong, and negotiated with the Jin State to ask for benefits, which was a technique, an overall plan outside the battlefield, and a contest of intelligence. β
Kublai Khan was a rare intelligent and knowledgeable person among the new generation of Mongolian nobles, and he understood Song Yichang's words as soon as he heard them. He asked with great interest, "What kind of techniques can Mr. teach me?" β
"The art of flies and dogs, that is learned by the common people in the market. The king doesn't have to ask me, and I don't know the way, what I want to teach the king is the power to ascend the great treasure, the king's overlord technique of the eight extremes of the emperor's camp. Song Yi laughed loudly and said, "I just don't know if the King of the Dao has the courage to learn." β
Kublai Khan suddenly fell silent, he whispered a few words to the interpreter, and waved his hand to tell the interpreter to retreat. said to Hao Jing: "Hao Jing, you come to translate." β
When Song Yichang said what the art of the king did not change, Hao Jing knew that today's conversation was going to be bad, and his original plan was that Song Yichang could casually talk about what is good and not killing, benevolence and filial piety, if it is more extensive, talking about longevity and longevity, can make Kublai Khan feel that this person is of some use, and it is enough to stay by his side.
How do you know that Song Yichang went straight to the point as soon as he came up.
At this time, was Kublai Khan able to openly talk about these deepest secrets in his heart to the Southern Koreans he met for the first time?
Song Yichang looked at Kublai Khan's hesitant appearance, sighed deliberately, and said: "I thought that the people of the Northern Dynasty were straightforward, and they were not as scheming as the Southern Dynasties, and they guarded against each other, so the heroic and righteous people could not avoid danger and obstacles, and came all the way to defect. That's it, it's just that Song Yichang is not clear-sighted, and Mingzhu secretly invested. If the king still remembers the hard work that came to Song Yichang, please give Yichang a horse, so that Song Yichang can go elsewhere. If you were worried about the suspicion of the Great Khan, you simply sent Song Yichang's head directly to the Great Khan, which can be regarded as Song Yichang did not come to the north in vain. β
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to walk towards the outside of Ao Bao.
Kublai Khan also stood up and shouted, "Wait a minute! β
He took two steps closer to Song Yichang, staring at Song Yichang's young face, thinking about whether to talk to him in his heart.
Song Yichang couldn't help laughing when he stared at him for a long time, he made a gesture towards Hao Jing, and Hao Jing also came up.
"I know that the matter in the heart of the King of the Dao should be related to the King of Quchu, right?"
Kublai Khan's eyes widened and he said, "So what? β
"I once heard that the first king, Tuolei, died in order to stop the curse of the Great Khan of Γgedei. And the Great Khan of Γgedei once made a public oath to the princes: in the future, the Khan will be the heir of the Tuolei line. The king told me the truth, is there or is this thing not? β
This is a rumor that has been spread all over the world. Kublai Khan was silent, neither agreeing nor explicitly denying it.
"If the king doesn't speak, then I'll be bold, and I should have such a thing. But I will say a big thing, I am afraid that the Great Khan may not have made plans to pass on the throne to the descendants of Tulei Khan. β
Kublai Khan said coldly: "The Mongols attach the most importance to promises, if what they say does not count, it is as shameful as a warrior fleeing on the battlefield, are they not afraid of the punishment of the immortal heaven?" β
