Chapter 45: Strategic Retreat

Outside the frontier, the boundless land.

Since ancient times, many nomadic peoples have been born on this land.

For example, the Xiongnu, Xianbei, Turkic and Khitan peoples all posed an extremely serious threat to the Central Plains, and today the most terrible tribe of the Mongols was born.

Since their birth, they have not only invaded the Central Plains several times and plundered many materials, but also conquered many countries from east to west, and now as many as hundreds of thousands of troops have gathered in one place, just to determine things.

Hara and Lim.

All the tribal people gathered here to meet the newly appointed Khan Er, Ali Buge.

After all, in the previous war of the Song Dynasty, his brother Meng Ge died in Ezhou, and Kublai Khan, who was once a favorable competitor, had also fallen.

At this moment, Ali Buge felt a little dazed, not knowing how he should act.

He knew the current situation in Mongolia, the Immortal Heaven inheritance was destroyed by Xiao Feng, even though he had the support of the four khanates and re-established the Immortal Heaven, but the power was far from the past, and it was no longer able to pose a threat to a strong person like Xiao Feng.

What's more, after the previous battle, most of the Mongolian elite lost most, and there were frequent rebellions in the Central Plains, which could not be effectively controlled at all, and the tribesmen were also full of complaints.

If he can't regain his momentum, I'm afraid that this sweat seat will not be able to sit steadily.

Standing here, Zhang Rou and Zhang Hongfan were a little nervous, after all, in this place to discuss Mongolian affairs, the Han people were only him, Xu Heng, and He Jing.

The rest of the people, because of their lack of momentum and reputation, did not come here to attend the meeting. Even Xu Heng and He Jing were recommended by Zhang Rou to be able to reach this place.

Seeing the new king ascend the throne, everyone who sat down was silent.

Ali Buge took a deep breath and asked everyone, "Brothers, I have summoned you to come here today, one is to rebuild the Immortal Heaven, and the other is to discuss the next matter. If there is any negligence, please do not blame it. ”

"Khan. ”

At that moment, a young man stepped out and asked directly: "Before that, please allow the kid to take the liberty of asking, I don't know what the Khan plans to do with the Red Phoenix Army?"

"Red Phoenix Army?"

At first hearing these three words, everyone paused.

They were naturally familiar with these three words, after all, they had been entangled with this unit since twenty years ago.

Seeing this person mention it, everyone felt that their cheeks were red and they were angry.

Brother Ali Buge was also angry, looking at the person in front of him, but with a little helplessness: "Chifengjun, why did you mention this matter?"

"It's not a kid who is presumptuous. It's just that this Red Phoenix Army is growing stronger and stronger, so there is this question. The man said again.

"Boyan. Why did you suddenly mention this? Don't we know about the threat of the Red Phoenix Army?"

When one person stood up and shouted directly.

His name is Zha Rabuhua, but he is the son of He monk Badu and the younger brother of Zhong Wei, because his brother and father died at the hands of the Red Phoenix Army, so he has always been full of anger towards the Red Phoenix Army.

But he also knew that the Red Phoenix Army could not be defeated in a short time, so he had always advocated avoiding its front for the time being and devoting all his energy to solving the Song Dynasty.

"It's just that you also understand that the Red Phoenix Army is strong. If we act rashly, I am afraid that we will lose a lot of children. It is precisely for this reason that I feel that the Song State should be resolved first. After the fall of the Song Kingdom, we can naturally concentrate all our forces and completely destroy the Red Phoenix Army. ”

Talking eloquently to everyone, Zara Buhua was already sure that Mongolia must not confront the Red Phoenix Army head-on at present.

"The kid thinks it's wrong. The Red Phoenix Army was originally from the Central Plains, and it was in the same vein as the Song Kingdom. Since you can think of this, how can Xiao Feng not think of it? If he takes advantage of our attack on the Song State to send troops, how should we act? In my opinion, we should take the lead in sending troops, and after dealing with the Red Feng Army in advance, we are plotting against the Song State. ”

Boyan saw that he was feared by everyone, so he straightened his chest, calmly faced everyone, and explained what he thought.

"Let the ranks know. This Red Phoenix Army seems to be weak, but in fact it has the strength to subvert the Central Plains. If I don't take advantage of this time to act early, and wait until the other party's strength grows, then we will be in danger. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Hongfan couldn't help but shake his head and said in a low voice: "It's simple for him to think of it, but it's a pity that the Red Phoenix Army is not an ordinary person?"

Xu Heng beside him was also a little nervous when he saw the generals arguing, and complained: "Even so. But this Red Phoenix Army is really difficult to deal with. After all, in order to stabilize the Mongol rule in the Han region, it really consumed a lot of Mongolian strength. No wonder they want to retreat. ”

"In that case, why did I come here?" He Jing let out a long sigh and opened his mouth to ask.

Zhang Hongfan replied in a low voice: "Naturally, it is to ensure the rule of the Mongols in the Han land. Otherwise, if the Red Phoenix Army comes, all of us will die. ”

When he said this, the three of them all felt chills behind their backs, and they had an inexplicable crisis.

After all, when the Mongols first entered the Central Plains and ruled the Han people, they really paid a lot of effort for them, and if they were caught by the Red Phoenix Army, they would definitely be tortured.

The Red Phoenix Army has been able to grow to this day, not just by virtue of the so-called Huayi distinction.

When the three of them were talking, the distant argument continued, and it never stopped.

I saw that Zara Buhua smiled shamefully, and shouted loudly: "Hmph! Have you forgotten? That Red Phoenix Army seems to be weak, but its strength cannot be underestimated. In order to annihilate this enemy, my father and brother all died at the hands of the other party, and even the former khan also died at the hands of Xiao Feng. Among the subordinates, there are countless tragic deaths at the hands of the other party. Do you think we don't want revenge?"

If you talk about hatred for the Red Phoenix Army, who is stronger than him in the ranks present.

But Zara Buhua understands better that the Red Phoenix Army is weak because they can't be eliminated, and now that they have a foothold in the Central Plains, if they want to defeat it, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky.

Immediately afterwards, his younger brothers Tianju, Tianyou, Tianxue, Tianlin, and Tianting all bowed their heads together, and they all complained: "In our opinion, this Red Phoenix Army is really powerful, and we should temporarily avoid the edge and plan the Song Dynasty in advance, which is the best policy." ”

After hearing this, Brother Ali Buge also bowed his head slightly, quite agreeing.

Boyan was a little annoyed, and said, "Khan." This must not be done. You can't let go of the Red Phoenix Army and continue to grow. ”

Ali Buge persuaded: "Boyan." I know that you grew up in the Ilkhanate, so I don't know the horrors of the Central Plains. Their people are weak, but if a man of great strength comes forward, he can gather the strength of all, and that power is no match for us. And Xiao Feng is one of the best. It is for this reason that we need to be cautious when facing her. You know what?"

Seeing that Ali Buge had made up his mind, Boyan had no choice but to give up arguing.

The strategy has been decided, and he is just a pawn, so naturally he can't change the general trend.
