Chapter 255: Anti-Song Aid
"What?" Rao was taken aback when he heard Temujin's composure.
"Don't want to bewitch the people, flying is the ability of the gods, how can the Han people have it?" Jochi said even more shocked and angry.
The envoy of the Jin State said: "The Luoyang City of my Dajin Kingdom, the city is ten zhang high, the pond is also three zhang, and the defenders are more than 80,000 people, and the first general of my Jin country is scattered in Luoyang, in the face of such a city, if you are replaced by Temujin Khan, you will lead 100,000 Mongolian iron cavalry, how long will it take to break through?"
Temujin pondered for a while and said, "Conquering cities and territories is not what we Mongols are good at. To break through a fortified city defended by 80,000 men, it would take at least three times the strength, and if it was a city ten feet high, then it would have to be five times as strong. ”
Temujin had never fought a battle at this time, and his estimation was based on great confidence in his own abilities and the bravery of his soldiers.
The envoy of the Jin State laughed and said: "But what you don't know is that the army of the Song Dynasty only has 100,000, but overnight, it broke through the city of Luoyang, which was guarded by 80,000 soldiers of my Dajin. To be more precise, the gate of Luoyang City was opened in less than half an hour!"
When the envoy of the Kingdom of Jin said this, there was an emotion of extreme anger and humiliation, and Temujin could feel that this emotion could not be faked.
"Could it be that this is because you said that the Song army has an army that fell from the sky?" Temujin asked with a frown.
"Not bad!" replied to the envoy of the Jin Kingdom: "The elite of the Song army is probably not inferior to the strong army of the Han and Tang dynasties, and the army of 100,000 has the courage to sweep the world." In less than half a month, the entire land of Henan and Shandong, thousands of miles of territory. Included in the rear. ”
"If the Great Khan does not send troops as soon as possible, I am afraid that the destruction of my Dajin will be imminent, and without my Dajin as a barrier, the destruction of your Mongolia is just around the corner!"
The words of the envoy of the Jin State were alarmist, and almost all the Mongolian generals changed color. Jochi's face was even more pale, but Temujin was still calm as usual, he took a deep look at the envoy of the Jin Kingdom and asked, "What's your name?"
The envoy of the Jin State said: "The lower official finishes Yan Yi!"
Temujin nodded and said, "Come on, take Wanyan Yi down, imprison him, and don't step out of the tent without my order!"
"Yes!" Jochi was the first to step forward. He had long seen that this envoy of the Jin Kingdom was unhappy, and he led two Mongolian soldiers to tie up Wanyan Yi.
"It doesn't have to be tied up. Temujin instructed lightly, and Jochi could only reluctantly agree, and then he wanted to escort Wanyan Yi down.
There was no trace of annoyance in Wan Yanyi's expression, but he laughed out loud and said, "Temujin is really a hero, when you fought against Song Jun." Don't forget to aim your bow and arrow at the sky!" he laughed and was taken out by Jochi and two Mongol soldiers.
After Yan Yi was taken out. Temujin's face immediately became gloomy, and it took a long time before he resolutely spoke: "Mu Huali, you sent someone to inform my stepfather Wang Han and my brother-in-law Zhamuhe, and let them each lead 20,000 iron horsemen to go south with me. Anti-Song Aid Gold!"
Although Mu Huali was strange, he never dared to disobey Temujin's order, so he answered yes and went down to give the order.
Borhu and Borshu and others. They were all puzzled, and Bor couldn't help but ask, "Great Khan, since the envoy of the Jin State has been imprisoned, why do you still send troops to help the Jin State? If you want to help the Jin State, why do you want to detain the envoy of the Jin State?"
Temujin said: "In the current situation, it is inevitable that we will help the Jin State, otherwise the Great Song Dynasty soldiers will go all the way to the north, and sooner or later they will hit our Mongolia." When Guo Jing was studying, he read a sentence of the Han people's words, which made me still excited, and at the same time I was jealous of the Han people, do you know which one?"
Bor and the others glanced at each other and said, "I don't know." ”
Temujin smiled and said to his favorite generals: "You are warriors who cross the grassland, and naturally you don't understand the books of the Han people. As early as more than 1,000 years ago, a king of the Han people said, 'Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.' What a domineering sentence, and the Han people did it when they were strong. ”
"During the Han and Tang dynasties, whether it was Mongolia or Dajin, Western Xia or Uighurs, or even the distant Western Regions, they were all the land of their Han people, and now the Song Dynasty seems to be strong again, and we have to guard against it. Only by keeping Daikin can we have the soil for the survival of our Mongolians. ”
"Great Khan, we understand this, so we want to resist Song aid. But in that case, why do we still want to withhold the envoy of the Jin State, aren't we going to form an alliance with the Jin State now?" Borshu asked.
Temujin said: "This Wanyan Yi should not be underestimated, and I categorically cannot let him return to the Kingdom of Jin." Once the Han Chinese are defeated by us, I am afraid that Dajin will turn against us. At that time, if this Wanyan Yi is in the Jin Kingdom, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to us. ”
"How come?" Borshu was a little puzzled, and said, "Since the Han people are so powerful, how can the Jin Kingdom dare to come to deal with us regardless of the south?"
Temujin sneered: "The state of Jin is declining, and I am afraid that I will not dare to compete with the Great Song Dynasty to the south. In this battle, once we block the Han people a little, the Jin people will definitely negotiate peace with them. After the peace talks, in order to strive for strategic depth, we will certainly turn our attention to Mongolia. And the Han people will definitely be happy to see Jinmeng fighting each other and will not come out to intervene. ”
"So our long-term enemies are not the Han people, but the Jin country. Temujin said coldly.
"In that case, Great Khan, why should we go to such great lengths to help the Kingdom of Jin. Jochi had returned to the tent and heard Temujin's words, and his mind was full of doubts.
When Temujin saw Jochi, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Jochi, you still don't like to use your brain. Borhu, you come and tell Jochi why. He believes that his beloved general must have figured out the trick.
Bol suddenly received the order and said to Joechi with a smile: "What the Great Khan means is that we would rather be enemies of the Jin people than the Han people after the great victory over the Jin Kingdom. Jochi, do you understand?"
Jochi was still at a loss, and Temujin couldn't help but laugh even louder when he saw it.
Wang Han, Zamuhe and Temujin were in the honeymoon period, and when they saw Temujin's envoy and asked why, they each sent 20,000 cavalry to join Temujin's tribe without saying a word.
The Wanghan tribe was led by Sangkun, and Zamuhe personally led the team, and after converging with Temujin, he led an army of 30,000 people, a total of 70,000, and went towards the hinterland of the Jin Kingdom non-stop.
Along the way, the switch is opened, the city enters the city, the Mongols see the splendid world of the Central Plains, where there is a reason not to plunder, they are superb in riding, even if they are galloping horses, they can also fly to take away the property of pedestrians on the street and roadside.
Temujin and the others did not stop this, as long as they did not delay the speed of the march, they would not care if the Mongols emptied the entire Jin Kingdom, but would be happy.
From the grassland to Hebei, more than 2,000 miles, even if the Mongolian iron horses came and went like the wind, it took half a month to arrive. And within half a month, Yue Wudi's Northern Expeditionary Army, the front of the army has broken into Hebei, and the battle has been victorious, pointing directly at the city of Zhongdu.
The gold lord Wan Yan Jing couldn't stand such a stimulus, and had already set up Yan Honglie as the crown prince, ordered the prince to supervise the country, and he fled back to the palace between the white mountains and black waters.
Yue Wudi stood on the top of the mountain, looking into the distance, the central capital city was already faintly in sight, Xin Qiji said: "I didn't expect that this Northern Expedition would be so smooth, if it goes on like this, it is not impossible to destroy the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop." ”
Han Yanxuan frowned slightly, this was not their original intention, Yue Wudi and he provoked the Northern Expedition, just to force the Jin State to surrender and consolidate their position in the court with great merit.
Once the Jin State is completely destroyed, then what is the use of the Zhao Guan's family still wanting him Han Yanxuan, and won't he become the "prime minister" who can be replaced by the emperor at will? This is not conducive to the great cause of the sect leader.
The combat power of the Northern Expeditionary Army exceeded expectations, and the combat power of the Jin State was also seriously overestimated.
Turning his head and seeing Yue Wudi's still calm and calm expression, Han Yanxuan relaxed slightly, and with Yue Wudi's gaze, he saw nothing except the Central Capital City a hundred miles away.
Yue Wudi suddenly moved the corners of his lips, and said with a faint smile: "It's here." ”
Han Yan was startled, raised his eyes and looked again, but still didn't find anything, and couldn't help asking, "What's coming?"
Yue Wudi said: "Mongolians, 70,000 Mongolian iron horsemen!"
Xin Qi was shocked and said, "Are the Mongols really here? What conditions did the Jin Kingdom pay to invite them?"
"I didn't pay any conditions, but since Temujin came to the Jin Kingdom, he naturally would not return empty-handed, and the people of the Jin Kingdom, and even the princes, should all take what they asked for in front of the 70,000 Mongolian iron horsemen. Moreover, Temujin is a generation of Tianjiao, and he will not fail to understand the truth of cold lips and teeth. This aid to the Jin country is because for the time being, we are not ready to face our Northern Expeditionary Army alone. Yue Wudi sighed softly, he was about to fight Temujin on the battlefield, which made his soul throb.
Unfortunately, this battle can't really be used at full strength.
"How do you know in such detail?" Xin Qiji glanced at Yue Wudi in surprise, Yue Wudi was obviously in the army these days, how could he know everything about the situation thousands of miles away?
Seeing that Yue Wudi smiled and was silent, Han Yanxuan's eyes showed a hint of understanding, Xin Qiji couldn't help frowning, and asked, "Could it be that in the Jin Kingdom, or Mongolia, there are also people who are virtuous and nephews?"
Yue Wudi said with a smile: "Lord Xin doesn't have to bother guessing, I have some chess pieces, and Han Xiang doesn't know about them, so it's naturally impossible for you to know." But please rest assured, I, Yue Wudi, will never do anything sorry for the Chinese nation, nor will I directly oppose the Great Song Dynasty. (To be continued......)
