Chapter 438 Layout (7) Suspicion (II)

For his own idea, in fact, Xiao Yao still has a lot of confidence in his heart, and this confidence does not only come from the last time Kublai Khan agreed to transfer two hundred masters, so that Yang Guo could form the so-called "Flying Sword Gate" to lure out all the gangs on the rivers and lakes that originally planned to wait for the rabbit, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop, including all the time, Kublai Khan obeyed his words.

Although the Zhaoxian Pavilion is the result of Kublai Khan's painstaking operation for many years, Kublai Khan advocated sinicization, and had a certain degree of understanding and contact with various cultures of the Song Dynasty. Second, he has lofty ambitions and has always taken the destruction of the Song Dynasty as his own responsibility, and if he wants to achieve this goal, no matter how the situation develops in the future, it is undeniable that military strength is the foundation of the fundamentals, so although there are many masters in the Zhaoxian Pavilion, it can be regarded as a very elite force, but looking at the overall situation, it is just an ordinary chess piece in the hands of Kublai Khan, and there is nothing special about it. It is precisely because of these reasons that Xiao Yao is full of confidence that he can successfully borrow this force from Kublai Khan to consolidate his foundation.

However, when Xiao Yao's words had already been spoken, and he went to observe the words and emotions and figure out Kublai Khan's reaction, the instinct that had been honed over the years made him secretly feel uneasy in his heart. He found that although Kublai Khan was smiling and seemed to be as confident as usual, the momentum that naturally emanated from his body was no longer as amiable as before, but seemed to have a faint power of resistance, a sense of alienation.

After being silent for a long time, Kublai Khan finally spoke, but what he said was not as before, meeting all the conditions put forward by Xiao Yao, but asking in a tone that could not hear emotion: "Now that you have formed these sects, what is the next step?"

When Xiao Yao heard this, he suddenly understood in his heart, I am afraid that this time, Kublai Khan will never treat himself like before. But although he sensed the problem, for a while, he couldn't figure out what he was not doing enough, so Kublai Khan changed his normal attitude towards himself. But now that the matter is coming, Xiao Yao can only see the move.

His mind turned sharply, and after a little thought, he said: "Big brother, the Quanzhen Sect has been destroyed, which is equivalent to a shady tree in the Central Plains martial arts collapsing, and now the gangs in the rivers and lakes are fighting openly and secretly, fighting endlessly. Isn't it precisely for this reason that the resistance that our Mongol army has encountered has been significantly weakened compared to before?"

"As for the purpose of the younger brother's establishment of the six major factions, it is for the sake of the future. After all, no matter how fierce the disputes in the rivers and lakes are, they cannot continue forever, and in the end, there will always be a force that will defeat the crowd and become an existence that everyone respects, or at least can no longer resist. And such an existence, if we let it go, sooner or later, they will still replace the position of today's Quanzhen Sect and become the leader of the martial arts alliance who commands the world and dare not disrespect. ”

"At that time, isn't everything we did before just making wedding dresses for others? So, instead of giving such a great opportunity to others, it is better for us to fight for it ourselves, with the help of the forces of the six major factions, and completely control the Central Plains martial arts in our own hands, so that we not only have one less confidant, but we no longer have to worry about the chaos in the rivers and lakes in the future, but also have a big boost, and we can continue to expand the power of the Zhaoxian Pavilion, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"

While Xiao Yao was saying these words, he was also secretly observing Kublai Khan's face, however, after he saw that Kublai Khan listened, he was still the same as just now, and he didn't say much, and his heart suddenly hung up, knowing that today's incident was about to start another incident.

Sure enough, after Kublai Khan pondered for a while, he said slowly: "Regarding the matter of the Central Plains martial arts, you don't have to be so concerned. Our Mongolian iron cavalry crisscrossed the east and west, invincible, and when did we fear those rural villagers? They are nothing more than clowns who jump off the beam, and they can't make any waves. As for the six major factions, there is no need to be so excited. ”

After a pause, Kublai Khan's face gradually sank, and he said coldly: "Big brother knows that you have good intentions, but you must not think too highly of the enemy and think too low of yourself." Over the years, you have followed me to fight in all directions, don't you know how powerful our grassland warriors are?"

Xiao Yao saw that Kublai Khan's face was pale, and his tone was becoming more and more severe, although he had the intention to argue, he had to obey first: "What the eldest brother taught him a lesson. ”

Kublai Khan snorted coldly, stood up, walked to a bronze mirror in the tent, and seemed to say to himself: "Now, half of the Great Song Dynasty has fallen into our hands, just now, Emperor Lin'an also sent a messenger to ask for peace with me, but I didn't agree." Why do you want to agree? I only spend half my life fighting horses on Kublai Khan, don't I just want to expand my territory and achieve hegemony? If they send me some gifts, I can give up this goal, and then what is the point of my life all these years?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned over, pulled out the short sword carried by the guard beside him, and swung it hard at the bronze mirror in front of him, and suddenly a sound of gold and iron resonance sounded, followed by a piercing sound that enveloped his ears, and in the blink of an eye, the bronze mirror was broken, but it was cut into two pieces by Kublai Khan.

"The current Da Song is like this, I only need a little force to take it down, what is there to be afraid of?"

Speaking of this, he was already cold-spoken, and turned to look at Xiao Yao and said, "As for what you just said, in my opinion, it is completely something that cannot be put on the table. For example, before, you told me that the Quanzhen Sect was disobedient, and I didn't immediately give you 50,000 soldiers and horses, so that you could destroy him without much effort; Over the years, I have fought no less than 100 big battles with small sticks, and I have never seen a well-equipped and well-trained elite army, so how could I be afraid of those rabble? I thought that after you went through this time, you would change your habits and understand that only by holding military power and only having more soldiers and horses under your command can you achieve more achievements, but now you are focusing on what six major factions you are engaged in, which really disappoints me. ”

"If you want to go down in history, you have to make an earth-shattering achievement!"

"Small fights, can't be on the stage!"

After saying this, Kublai Khan threw the short sword in his hand on the ground, and without looking at Xiao Yao, he turned around and walked out of the tent.

Hearing this, Xiao Yao has completely understood, it turns out that the problem is not with himself, but with Kublai Khan. At this time, he suddenly remembered that over the years, the Kublai Khan, who had fought everywhere and fought bloodily, because he could laugh heroically when he heard the good news, and then remembered the humble and polite, scholar-like Kublai Khan who he saw for the first time because of chance.

Looking at the back of Kublai Khan, who was now stubborn and overjoyed, out of the tent, and then recalling what he had just said, Xiao Yao suddenly felt a trace of unspeakable sadness.

Over the years, he chose to saddle up the horse by Kublai Khan's side, in the hope that one day he would have enough strength to send a glimmer of hope to all the suffering Li people in the world, and help them no longer taste all the calamities in the world because of the rule and oppression of **, and finally prompted him to make a decision to help Kublai Khan destroy the Song Dynasty, and it is precisely for this reason.

He originally thought that the day when Kublai Khan became famous, that is, the day when the suffering people could turn over and usher in a new life. But now, looking at Kublai Khan, who was completely filled with power and **, and only cared about his own "expanding territory" and "going down in history" and had already deviated from his original heart, Xiao Yao's heart was really mixed for a while, and all kinds of emotions were really indescribable.
