Chapter 030 Han's calculations
Zhang Han saw the contempt that flashed in the other party's eyes, but he was not angry, because the other party was right, with his current strength and influence, it was really not much help for Batu to compete for the Kipchak Khan position.
But Zhang Han has a way, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered to do his best today, so he specially invited the other party to his home, and made all kinds of foreshadowing before.
"You're right. Zhang Han is indeed very small now, but in helping you ascend to the throne of the Khan, it is not like what you said, it will not help you very much. Opposite! With Zhang's help, before the Western Expedition, he would justifiably ascend to the throne of the Kipchak Khanate. ”
"Why is your forehead so angry?"
Although Batu knew that Zhang Han's words were definitely not untargeted, he still wanted to explore Zhang Han's depth, so he asked deliberately.
"Gainzhanghan can bring you two forces, and these two forces can push you up steadily. Explain it clearly enough! The expression on Zhang Han's face began to become serious, and the tone of his words was extremely firm.
"Oh? Admire, admire! Ba Du couldn't have imagined that he would have such ability not long after he first arrived on the grassland! I really looked away before. Batu first laughed and clapped his hands, and praised Zhang Han. Then he looked into Zhang Han's eyes with a grim face and asked;
"Let's talk about it for the time being, if the teacher-student relationship between Zhang Han's attachment to Marshal Subutai can move the other party to support me, then who is the other force?"
Zhang Han stared at Badu's eyes, his lips opened slightly, and he slowly spit out four words; "The Great Khan of Mongolia!"
"You mean ?。。" Badu didn't expect Zhang Han to be involved in Wokotai, and he was shocked. first impatiently confirmed the authenticity of the matter to Zhang Han, and then after reacting, he quickly shook his head and said; "No way!"
Zhang Han agreed with Batu's judgment.
As the current Mongol Great Khan, Ogedai not to mention that Genghis Khan's other sons and the Jochi family did not deal with it very much, and the most important thing was that he needed to maintain the stability and balance of the four khanates. As long as the Golden Horde is successfully inherited, he will not be troubled.
"You are right, for the sake of the stability of the Great Mongolian State, the Great Khan of Ögedai will naturally not interfere in the succession of your Khanate, unless your Khanate itself produces civil strife.
We Han people have an old saying; If you want to get it, you must first get it! ”
"Zhang Han, continue." Hearing this, Badu squinted his eyes towards Zhang Han and leaned back.
Zhang Han glanced at him, ignored it and continued; "We have to take a long-term view. Just because the current Great Khan will not support you does not mean that the successor Great Khan will not support you... ….”
Zhang Han's words. In an instant, a turbulent wave was set off in Batu's heart.
What does the other party mean? Could it be that something happened to the third uncle's body?
Without waiting for Badu to ask, Zhang Han was already staring at Badu with straight eyes, and his tone became quite serious; "What I say today shall come out of my mouth and into your ears, and shall not be known to any third person. And out of this tent, Zhang will never admit a word. Do you understand? ”
Seeing Zhang Han's serious appearance, Batu knew that he was definitely going to say something big. I was a little hesitant suddenly, because there are some things that I can't listen to if I want to, and if I don't do it well, I will implicate myself.
After Zhang Han saw the hesitant appearance of the other party who wanted to listen but didn't dare to listen, the corners of his mouth raised a slight sneer. Dark passages; I don't believe you can calm down! has already entered the Gu, a little sample~ Can you still run?
Batu also knew that the conversation between the two had reached a critical moment, and then Zhang Han would definitely tell some big secrets that he didn't know. At first, he wanted to lift his legs and leave, not wanting to be pulled into this whirlpool of right and wrong by Zhang Han, but for some reason his legs didn't obey the call and didn't move.
The temperature in the tent was not cold at this time, but beads of sweat formed on Batu's forehead. I saw that his facial features were tightly squeezed together, for a long time! As if he had suddenly made up his mind, Batu said in a slightly hoarse voice; "Zhang Han, go on! What you say today, Batu will never reveal a word. God knows, you know, I know~"
Zhang Han was overjoyed when he heard this. Dark passages; This first hook is finally buried in the other party.
In the next conversation, Zhang Han's tone of speech became significantly soothed, returning to the appearance of the first conversation.
Since the other party has promised, Zhang Han did not hesitate to explain; "Zhang's parents died when he was a child, and he grew up eating hundreds of family meals. The current appearance of the Great Khan is very similar to the appearance of the rich man Li in the village when Zhang Han was a child. "
Then Zhang Han fabricated a story about the rich man Li to Batu;
This rich man Li, whose original name was Li Fugui, was a famous gentry in my hometown, and it is said that he migrated from the branch of the Li clan in Longxi, Sui and Tang dynasties. This Li Fugui is indeed a capable man in the countryside, and in just a dozen years after his father's death, he has become our leading family.
The fertile fields are strange, the mansions are contiguous, and the entire Li family presents a prosperous scene of cooking oil under the leadership of Li Fugui. But the Tao Te Ching has it; The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more than is lost. The way of man, otherwise, the loss is not enough to give more than enough. Everything is not only beautiful, but also has shortcomings that cannot be seen.
Li Fugui has the same problem as our Great Khan, that is, he is drunk and beautiful. Of course, it is the nature of every man to be drunk and beautiful, as long as the degree of control is not so harmful to the body, if it is too much, Li Fugui just did not control that degree, and he returned to the West Heaven directly after a short time. This is only known when Li Fugui passed away, when I listened to the small talk of the doctor who had treated him before.
According to my observation, the face of the Great Khan is now eighty percent similar to that of this Li Fugui before his death. Perhaps with the status of the Great Khan, a famous doctor can last two more years, but the body that has been gradually hollowed out will not recover. Just like the rotten beams, tinkering can indeed last a little longer, but it is destined to collapse after complete decay.
After listening to Zhang Han's words, Batu's face became cloudy, and he stood up and paced back and forth in the room.
It's been a long time! As if he had made up his mind to something, he asked Zhang Han; "According to you, the Great Khan has only been around for a few years. The Golden Horde throne that Batu has to ascend needs to bet on in advance to win the support of the next Great Khan? And the next Great Khan in the mouth of the forehead should be Guiyou, I don't know if Badu is right? ”
Zhang Han also stood up immediately after hearing this, clapped his hands and stared at the man in front of him with an appreciative look.
exclaimed; "Among the third generation of young people in Mongolia, Batu is worthy of being one of the best people, and your mind is really clear. Not bad! The other supporter I'm talking about is Guiyu. ”
Speaking of which, Zhang Han began to summarize; "If you want to realize your ambitions, what you lack now is military exploits and political help, and I am just the right person to be your matchmaker, with the support of Marshal Subutai, you can not only get the support of the military, but also with your ability, you will be able to easily obtain a lot of military merits in the process of this western expedition.
With the support of the next Great Khan, we will not only be able to obtain the nominal Kipchak Khan throne before the Western Expedition, but will also give you complete control over all the territories of the Kipchak Khanate and the newly conquered territories after the Western Expedition. When the time comes, not only will you be able to gain the support of the upper echelons of the empire, but no one will dare to question the legal system.
When Guiyou is pushed to the throne by us, hum, as long as we have several forces twisted together, and then control one or two forces, then the empire will not let us have the final say for decades to come? ”
"Good, good! Unexpectedly, not long after he arrived in the grassland, he would have to play such a big game of chess, which really impressed Badu. Admire! Admire! Batu first complimented Zhang Han, and then looked at Zhang Han's eyes sternly and asked;
"I have wasted so much thought and planning, I don't know what I want to get?
Don't tell Batu that he has no desires and no desires, and Batu is not an ignorant child. What the forehead just said, Batu also deeply agrees, if you want to get it, you must first go with it! What do you need to pay for pulling? ”
Zhang Han turned a blind eye to Batu's stern gaze, and from the time the other party asked these two questions, his second hook had already been buried.
This kind of thing is like fishing, the most important thing is patience and mentality. With these two things, it is only a matter of time before you catch a big fish.
Therefore, Zhang Han did not answer Batu's inquiry for the first time, but stepped forward and pulled the other party and pressed him on the seat again. Then he took the teapot on the table and began to fill the cups of both of them with tea, smiling and stretching out his hand to signal; "Let's have a cup of tea first, and we'll move on after the tea."
Zhang Han's actions fell in Badu's eyes, which made him a little more confused and vigilant about Zhang Han. But Batu still honestly picked up the teacup and poured two sips.
And Zhang Han took a small sip, and the room was quiet.
As Zhang Han put the teacup in his hand on the table, and there was a crisp collision with the tabletop, Zhang Han slowly spoke again; "The reason why Zhang Han bothered to make such a plan is naturally not just to do something good."
"Would you like to hear about it?" Batu hummed. Thought; Look what fox tail you're showing.
"Zhang Han did this, one did not seek fame, and the other did not seek profit. To be precise, don't ask for a nickname, don't ask for a small profit! Zhang Han is seeking fame and fortune. ”
Batu laughed when he heard this; "I know that the forehead is not small, and I am stupid, I don't know what is a big name and fortune in the eyes of the forehead?"
'The great name is not a false name, and the great profit is not a small profit. What Zhang Han wants, only to cut the land and call it the national ear! ’
As soon as these words came out, Batu immediately became angry, and slapped his palm the wooden table at hand, letting out a "Touch!" The loud noise. The teacup on the table fell directly off the table and rolled down the carpet at the feet of the two.
cold voice; "What a big name and fortune, you are really ambitious, good at planning!
However, it can be seen that the Central Plains Han Land was defeated by how much warrior blood did it take for my Great Mongolia? It would be ridiculous to think that with some small favors, he could sit back and enjoy it. Batu can't pass this pass. ”
