Mongolian steppe, Genghis Khan's Golden Horde.

In this huge and splendid tent, a symbol of the supreme glory and power of the steppe, Temujin sat alone on a large golden chair and was stunned. This chair was snatched when the capital of the Jin Kingdom was broken, the back of the chair was cast with a coiled dragon to grab the pearl, and there was a tiger carved on each of the two handles, which was originally the throne of the emperor of the Jin Kingdom.

The mighty Thorn Zim had been wiped out by the iron hooves of the Mongol army, and the Western nations trembled and submitted to the scimitars of the Mongol warriors, obediently agreeing to the rule of Temujin's two sons, Jochi and Chagatai.

However, these victories, which were praised as "great" by his vassals, did not bring much joy or excitement to Temujin, and he pondered on the golden throne, thinking of his hard, but passionate youth. Now he has countless beautiful concubines, victorious armies and boundless empires, but he can't recover the years that have passed like water.

Suddenly, the mournful sound of a war horse was heard outside the tent, and then it fell silent again. Temujin lived in the desert for a lifetime, and when he heard it, he knew that an old horse was suffering from an incurable disease, and his master could not bear its lingering pain, so he killed it with a knife.

Thinking that his energy had been declining like that old horse in recent years, Temujin shuddered and thought, "I'm getting old, and I don't know how many years I have to live?" Since it will eventually return to the loess and occupy no more than a few feet of land, what is the use of working hard to build this great territory? ”

After all, he is a generation of heroes, and his mood is occasionally low for a moment before he cheers up again: "That's it, since it is difficult to live for a long time, let the name stay for a long time." In my lifetime, I should lead the Mongol iron cavalry to build an unprecedented great empire, so that thousands of years later, wherever the sun shines, there will be people singing about Genghis Khan's deeds! ”

Thinking of this, Temujin thought about it and shouted outside the tent: "Someone! ”

A personal soldier leader walked in from outside the tent, knelt down on one knee and said, "Listen to the Great Khan's orders." ”

Temujin succinctly ordered: "Blow the trumpet, gather the generals!" ”

The pro-soldier received the order to go out of the tent, and in a short time, more than a dozen trumpeters rushed to the golden horde, standing in the south, east, north, and west of the golden horde, and blew whining. This is an urgent order from Genghis Khan to convene the generals, let him be the prince's favorite general, if he does not arrive after Temujin bends ten fingers after the sound of his own trumpet, he will be beheaded immediately, and he will not be pardoned. At this moment, he heard the rapid sound of horses' hooves in all directions, galloping towards the Golden Horde.

When Temujin flexed his third finger, the first man rushed to the tent, and it was none other than King Jinlun, who had just been appointed as the national teacher of Mongolia. By the time Temujin flexed his eighth finger, all the princes and generals had arrived.

Temujin looked at the crowd: "Now that the flower thorn is gone, we can free up our hands to clean up the remnants of the Jin Kingdom." At present, the elite troops of the Jin State are concentrated in Tongguan, and the south is based on the mountains and the north is limited to the big river, which is difficult to break. Everyone has to think of a way, how can we break through Tongguan and attack Bianliang, the new capital of the Jin Kingdom? ”

Hearing that there was another battle to be fought, everyone in the tent rushed to offer various strategies to the Great Khan to break the city, and each asked for an order to lead a group of men and horses to attack Tongguan.

Seeing that only the Golden Wheel Dharma King smiled silently, Temujin opened his mouth and asked, "I wonder what the national teacher has on this matter?" ”

King Heshi of the Golden Wheel smiled and said, "The Great Khan has already become a bamboo in his chest, so why bother to ask the poor monks?" ”

"The national teacher really knows my heart!" Temujin laughed and said to the crowd, "Although you have different ideas, the frontal assault will inevitably be protracted. At present, the best way for our Mongolia and the Great Song Dynasty alliance is to take advantage of the Song Realm, march from Tangzhou and Dengzhou, and go straight to Bianliang. ”

"Great Khan Trick!" Everyone woke up from a dream, and each one praised it one after another.

Temujin immediately ordered to send troops to attack Jin in three ways, the middle route was the commander of the third son Wokotai, who had been appointed by him as the successor to the Khan's throne, the left army was commanded by the fourth son Tuo Lei, who was the most popular with him, and the right army was commanded by Mu Huali, the most resourceful of the "four masters", and then ordered the rest to retreat temporarily, leaving only the national teacher Jinlun Dharma King and the commander of the three armies to discuss the strategy of marching in detail.

Temujin smiled at the Golden Wheel Dharma King and said, "Since the national teacher knows my intentions, can you guess again how I want to capture Bianliang?" ”

The Golden Wheel Dharma King groaned for a moment and replied, "Don't attack." ”

"Don't attack?" Tuo Lei asked with some confusion, "National Master, Father Khan wants us to capture Bianliang." Why do you say you won't attack again? ”

King Jinlun smiled and said: "Obviously it is not attacking, but it is actually attacking without attacking." ”

The others were still confused, but Temujin had already clapped his hands and laughed: "What a 'attack without attacking', this is a wonderful statement." National teacher, please explain this plan to them. ”

King Jinlun said: "The poor monk dared to guess that the Great Khan's strategy of using troops was to feint to attack the golden capital and annihilate the enemy's city. Bianliang is the place where the emperor of the Jin State lives, but there are not many troops in the garrison, and when he saw that my division was approaching, the Jin State should urgently transfer elite troops from Tongguan back to the division to rescue. There is a saying in the books of the Han people that 'the end of the strong crossbow cannot wear Lu Min'. From Tongguan to Bianliang, even if the elite soldiers are sharp, they must be exhausted by thousands of miles of help, although they can fight. And our army will be able to break the gold soldiers by waiting for work. The elite of the Jin Kingdom was defeated in this battle, and Bianliang could not attack himself. If you attack the girder, you will be eager and difficult to pull out, and you will be vulnerable to the enemy. "This person is a genius in the world, not only outstanding in martial arts, but also proficient in literature, although he lives in seclusion, but he has a glimpse of everything in the history of the Han people.

Temujin said with great joy: "The national teacher is clever! As he spoke, he took out a spoke picture and spread it on the table, and after the three of them saw it, they were all very surprised. It turned out to be a map near the big beam, which depicted the marching route of the enemy and our army, how to pull the enemy's back, attack the enemy's heart, how to lure the enemy from Tongguan to come from afar, how to take advantage of the enemy's fatigue to gather and annihilate the city, which was exactly the same as what King Jinlun said.

Wokotai and the others looked at Temujin and King Jinlun, and they were all surprised and admired.

Temujin still didn't seem to want to let go of the Golden Wheel Dharma King, and asked with a smile: "Dare to ask the national teacher, after our army captures Bianliang, what will be the next step?" ”

King Jinlun pondered for a while, and said with a wry smile: "It is a fluke that the poor monk can guess this step, and what the Great Khan will arrange next is not something that the poor monk can predict." In fact, with his intelligence, he had roughly guessed Temujin's whole plan. But since he is proficient in Sinology, he naturally knows the taboo of the master, so after showing his intelligence, he hides it just right.

Sure enough, hearing the Golden Wheel Dharma King's words, a trace of jealousy hidden in Temujin's smiling eyes was released. He said solemnly to Wokotai, Tuo Lei, and Mu Huali: "You keep in mind for me that after the three armies break the gold, they will immediately move to the south, break through Lin'an with lightning speed, and destroy the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop." If this plan is successful, then from now on, the world will belong to me, Mongolia! ”

"It turns out that the Great Khan used the strategy of 'killing two birds with one stone', and the poor monks admired it!" The Golden Wheel Dharma King on the side flattered him at the right time.

Hearing this sentence "killing two birds with one stone", Temujin was slightly stunned, and the smile on his face gradually converged.

"Father Khan, but he thought of Guo Jing'an?" Tuo Lei knew his father's mind best, and knew that he must have remembered Guo Jing from this sentence "killing two birds with one stone".

Temujin sighed: "Jing'er, this kid seems to be honest and straightforward, but in fact, he is the most stoic and courageous. A year ago, he secretly picked up his mother, clearly seeing that there would be a war between Mongolia and the Great Song Dynasty sooner or later, which showed us that he would definitely stand on the side of the Great Song Dynasty. I heard that he formed a 'Volunteer Army' in Shandong, and defeated the Jin soldiers repeatedly, and the momentum was very huge. In my plan, his Volunteers are a variable, and you must leave a force to guard against him before you go south to attack the Song. ”

The three of Wokotai were awe-inspiringly taught, and among them, Tuo Lei thought that he would have a day when he would fight against Guo Jing on the battlefield, and his heart couldn't help but be gloomy.

Not far from the Golden Horde of Temujin, Elder Peng, a traitor to the Beggar Gang dressed as a Mongol, walked over. It turned out that after he failed to plot against Guo Jing, he had no place in the Central Plains, so he had to flee to the desert and take refuge in the third prince's Wokotai. Because he was not only strong in martial arts, but also sleek and obedient, he soon won the favor of Wokotai and accepted him as a personal attendant in the personal guard. This time, Temujin convened the princes and generals to discuss the matter, and Elder Peng followed Ogedai to come, although he was not qualified to enter the Golden Horde, but he could wait not far from the tent.

He stood outside the tent for a moment, glancing at the sky from time to time. Suddenly, there seemed to be something, his face changed color slightly, his left hand was flipped, and there was a small round copper mirror in his palm, aiming at the angle of the sun, and shaking it towards the sky a few times.

High in the air, a small white dot grew larger as it descended, and gradually it became a large white eagle. The white eagle swooped down toward the easily recognizable golden tent of Temujin, and it was extremely fast. By the time the vigilant Mongol soldiers appeared on patrol, it had already flown more than ten feet above the Golden Horde. Just as the Mongol soldiers were shouting in the direction of the Golden Horde, the white eagle suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and at the same time a figure appeared, falling towards the top of the Golden Horde like a meteor.

Temujin and the others in the tent were talking, and suddenly heard a noise of people outside, and when they were shocked and wanted to go out to investigate, the top of the golden tent was cut by someone, and a figure fell from the sky, and a cold purple soft sword in his hand conjured up thousands of sharp sword rays, facing Temujin, Wokotai, and Tuolei father and son!

"Meng Xunzhen!" The Golden Wheel Dharma King exclaimed, and reacted very quickly to pull out five wheels of gold, silver, copper, iron, and lead, and the three wheels of copper, iron, and lead flew out of their hands, and smashed towards Meng Xunzhen with the sound of rumbling wind and thunder, and the gold and silver wheels were held separately with both hands, and then intercepted Meng Xunzhen after the three rounds that flew out.

Meng Xunzhen's long sword was picked left and right, and the three wheels that flew in with the trick of "four or two dialing a thousand catties" were shifted and oblique, and then the long sword stabbed straight out, which was the "Nine Swords to One" formula created by him after he comprehended the "Dugu Nine Swords" and simplified the complex. Although this sword has not yet been developed and perfected, when Huashan discussed the sword, Hong Qigong and Ouyang Feng were defeated under this sword one after another.

The Golden Wheel Dharma King only felt that the sword that Meng Xunzhen stabbed head-on seemed to be ordinary, but it contained infinite changes in it, and he was terrified in his heart, the gold and silver wheels were in front of him, and the power of a "dragon elephant like a skill" was used to twelve points, and the crape myrtle soft sword that was stabbed in front of him was sandwiched between the two wheels.

Meng Xunzhen's eyes flashed, and the long sword dragged the heavy gold and silver wheels, drawing a circle in the void between the two. The center of the circle suddenly generated an extremely strong suction, completely absorbing the huge force attached to the two of them on the long sword and the twin wheels. With the shaking of Meng Xunzhen's long sword, this huge force that fused the power of the two moved to the body of the Golden Wheel Dharma King.

The body of the Golden Wheel Dharma King spun like a spinning top and flew out, and his mouth sprayed blood like rain.

"Death!" Ziwei's soft sword swallowed like lightning a few times, and the bodies of Temujin, Wokotai, Tuolei, and Mu Huali stiffened at the same time, and a stream of blood arrows erupted from the heart of the left chest at the same time, falling in all directions.

Meng Xunzhen's face was also a little pale, the sword that defeated the Golden Wheel Dharma King was that he had realized a trick from the Taiji Sword, but he was also unable to perfect it, and he reluctantly moved that huge power to the opponent's body, and his meridians were also a little overwhelmed and injured.

"Why are you doing this?" The Golden Wheel Dharma King, who fell to the ground with a wolf, asked extremely unwillingly. At this moment, his meridians and viscera were shattered by that huge force, and he relied on his pure internal force to hang his last breath.

Meng Xunzhen replied indifferently: "The expansion of Mongolia will threaten some people I care about, so I must stop him." ”

The Golden Wheel Dharma King asked with difficulty: "Do you not hesitate to pay for your own life for this?" ”

Meng Xunzhen listened to the noisy sound of countless people and horses swarming outside the golden tent, took out a small and delicate hourglass from his bag and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Although there are some dangers, as long as the time is calculated, there is still a certainty of saving your life." It should be almost, goodbye! ”

Before the words fell, a portal completely formed by light suddenly appeared in front of Meng Xunzhen. As King Jinlun fixed an expression of disbelief on his face and stopped breathing, he stepped into the gate of light, and then the gate of light turned into a little star and disappeared.

At the same time as Meng Xunzhen disappeared, Mu Nianci, who had changed into a woman's makeup in the distance, looked at the north with feeling, two lines of tears slipped silently down her cheeks, and silently said in her heart: "Big brother, no matter how long, I will wait for you to come back!" ”
