Zhang Han and Guyu sat back in their seats again. Zhang Han kept snorting and looking at Guyu, who was smiling proudly.
Normally, Zhang Han would have been upset when he saw his virtuous behavior and would not have ridiculed him, but at this moment, for some reason, he felt that Guyu's stinky look was very pleasing to the eye.
After some discussion among the nobles, the general heading south was finally decided.
Zhang Han was lucky to escape this time, and the job finally fell to Kuo Chu.
When the conference ended, Zhang Han glanced at Brother Meng with a rather unkind look, and thought to himself, "Just wait for me, you brothers will have an easier time."
Brother Meng's actions today really annoyed him. He was plotted against him for no reason, and he was the target of public criticism.
Meng Ge's younger brother Kublai Khan accidentally saw Zhang Han's eyes, and then whispered something in Meng Ge's ear, and both of them laughed.
And he smiled quite proudly and arrogantly. Zhang Han's face turned darker when he saw it.
The laughter of the two brothers directly attracted the attention of the people around them. Everyone looked at Brother Meng in surprise and thought deeply.
When Guiyou next to Zhang Han saw this, new hatred added to old hatred, and he immediately opened his mouth to scold him. But Zhang Han next to him grabbed him and shook his head.
Zhang Han is not a generous person, but scolding others has no effect at all except losing his own identity. It's better to plan carefully and hit him hard and beat him to death with a stick.
Later, Zhang Han didn't leave directly like the others, but took Guiyou and sent the princes and nobles away one by one. Although some people looked a little unnatural when they looked at them, Zhang Han was smiling the whole time, as if nothing happened just now.
When it was his turn to see off Subotai and his son, Zhang Han saw Wu Liang Hadai looking at him with a worried face, and then he grinned, patted the other man's shoulder heavily, and said, "Don't worry! Your uncle is doing very well. A mere minor setback is not worthy of my attention."
Zhang Han's whole performance was watched by Subotai. To be honest, he was also very dissatisfied with Brother Meng's sudden attack on his disciple tonight. At that time, he planned to take the lead, but Prince Guyu unexpectedly took the lead.
In an instant, Subotai's dissatisfaction was swept away. Secretly, this disciple is good at winning over people's hearts. At the critical moment, at least there will be someone to help him speak.
Just now, Zhang Han caught Guyu in time and sent the guests away one by one without any expression. He showed enough etiquette. This is even more rare!
You must know that this disciple is only 20 years old, which is the age when he is full of vitality. Prince Guyu's behavior is normal.
With his current status in Mongolia, Subotai deeply understands that relying solely on outstanding military exploits is absolutely not enough. In the end, it depends on forbearance and strategy.
If you don't take action, that's enough. Once you take action, the outcome must be determined. Only when the trump card is in hand can it be most effective at critical moments.
“Good performance today!”
Subotai first affirmed Zhang Han's actions today, and then looked directly at Guyuk next to Zhang Han. Seeing that the other party still didn't look good, he put on a kind face and said with a smile;
'Is the prince still angry? No matter how big the problem is, you need to know that your body is important, and your anger will harm your body. 'Subotai's attitude towards Guyu was completely different from his attitude towards Zhang Han and Wuliang Hadai, and he was full of kindness in every aspect.
Upon hearing this, Guyu immediately put away the displeasure on his face. He must pay attention to important officials of the empire like Subotai. He forced out an ugly smile on his face and replied;
'Marshal Xie is worried about me. It’s just that Brother Meng is bullying people too much and is openly attacking Zhang Han’s consort, but who can’t tell that it’s me, Guiyou, who is targeting him behind the scenes? No one knows what’s behind this, hehe! His father...'
"Be careful! Your Highness." Subotai's face immediately became serious, and he interrupted Guyu's next words in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, Guiyou immediately looked back and forth, and saw that everyone was almost gone, so he curled his lips in disapproval. But I didn’t mention it again after that.
After sending Subotai and his son away, apart from Zhang Han and Guiyou, there was only Batu drinking in the corner of the first row.
Batu narrowed his eyes slightly and watched Zhang Han and Guyu from beginning to end, not knowing what he was thinking.
After everyone was gone, he patted his robe and stood up. First, he nodded meaningfully to Zhang Han. Then he glanced at Guiyou with a funny look on his face, chirped twice, and walked out of the tent slowly.
Guyu was confused again and felt that today was extremely unpleasant, so he said a few words to Zhang Han and left.
After Zhang Han was the only one left at the scene, his face pulled down in vain.
In fact, he was not as dignified as he seemed. He was just forced to keep his anger in his heart due to reality.
He understands that because of his Han identity, he cannot do as he pleases like other people. Brother Meng also seized on his weakness today and took the opportunity to attack, leaving him at a loss.
Although he knew that he was just Guyu's shield, this incident still gave him a big warning that he was not so lucky every time.
It was also his fault that he had gone too smoothly and lost his vigilance.
But now that it’s on the chessboard, let’s see whose chess skills are better!
Zhang Han still doesn't believe it. If he can't even handle Brother Meng after time travel, he will just crash to death and embarrass many senior time travellers.
"Three, two, one...let it go!"
With an earth-shattering roar, the gravel at Tachar's feet rolled down the slope.
Tachaer and the generals on the hillside were all staggered by the sound wave.
After finally regaining his balance, Tachar looked towards the source of the sound with a look of shock on his face.
One kilometer away from the hillside where they were standing, a giant yellow dragon soared into the sky from the opening of the river embankment.
Originally, the river embankment in the Central Plains section was tens of meters higher than the flat ground. After the breach, the water level of the Yellow River rushed to a height of nearly 100 meters under the huge pressure, which was higher than the hill below Tachar and the others.
The sunshine seems to have coated this yellow water dragon with a layer of golden scales, and the strong wind seems to have given it soaring wings. Let it run towards the southeast at a devastating speed, and any object along the way will be chewed up mercilessly by him.
At this moment, the Yellow River that burst its banks is no longer the mother river that gave birth to Chinese civilization, but a devil that has emerged from its cage!
Tachar looked at the Yellow River water raging thousands of miles in front of him, clasped his hands in front of his chest.
There was a rare trace of pity on his face, and his thick lips were mumbling words quickly;
Namo Amitabha Night. Dortagado Night. Duo Diye him.
Amiridubhavi. Amiriduo. Xidanpobi.
Ami said. Emperor Vikalana. Ami said.
Vigalando.
Gami is greasy. Gagana. Zhiduo Kali. Suo Po He. -(Reborn curse)
After reciting the mantra of death, the look of pity on Tachaer's face disappeared, and instead a cruel smile appeared, looking towards the south in the direction of the Song Dynasty.
Half a month ago, after Tachar received the news that the Emperor of Song Dynasty would send troops to the Central Plains, he quickly retreated to the north bank of the Yellow River with his main force, except for leaving sporadic sentinels around Kaifeng and Luoyang in the Central Plains.
At the same time, he quickly sent a letter asking for help to the Mongolian Khan Court.
Two days ago, I finally got a reply from Khan Ting. After receiving instructions from Great Khan Wokuotai, Tachar immediately ordered people to dig up the Yellow River embankment.
The reason for this determination was that the Song Army's vanguard, led by Quan Zicai, was already less than 200 miles away from Kaifeng City when Tan Ma came to report. With their marching speed, they would reach Kaifeng in three days.
"Since you're here, let's all stay!"
Tachaer finished mumbling and shouted behind him, "Has there been any news about how long it will take for the Huaidong soldiers led by Zhao Kui to arrive in Kaifeng?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Rou immediately stepped out from among the generals;
"Commander! If we follow the original marching speed of Zhao Kui's troops, it will take about seven days.
Now, when the Yellow River bursts, most of the southeastern part of the Central Plains will quickly turn into a swamp. Even if Zhao Kui makes a decisive detour, it will take about 15 days at the earliest. "
Tachaer thought about it for a moment, her eyes lit up, and she said;
'The fifteenth day is enough! Our reinforcements will arrive in five days.
This time I want to spread a big net and swallow up the main force of the Song Dynasty. At that time, I would like to see the expression of the little emperor of Song Dynasty? Hahaha! ~'
"The commander is wise! I wonder how my subordinates will act? I hope the commander will show me." Zhang Rou first complimented Tachaer and then asked.
"Yes, how to fight? Commander, give the order!..." Other generals also agreed.
"Let's go back to the big tent and tell you."
After waving to the generals behind him, Tachar walked towards the big tent at the foot of the mountain. Zhang Rou and other generals looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
Tokyo Bianliang Kaifeng City
Cui Li, the guard general of Bianjing, was walking around in the hall. His wife Huang, who was beside him, had seen her husband looking restless all morning. So he stepped forward to persuade;
'Husband! What's the point of going around like this? Now that Marshal Tachar is leading his troops to retreat north, he clearly treats you as an abandoned son. I really don’t understand why you are still hesitating? '
"My wife! Hey, it's not that I'm hesitant about my husband, but I'm not sure whether the Mongols will make a comeback!
If the Song army cannot defend the Central Plains, won't we face revenge from the Mongols? You should have heard about the ferocity of the Mongols! When the time comes, won’t the whole family die without a burial place? "Cui Li took his wife Huang's hand, with a sad face, and expressed his concerns.
When his wife Huang saw her husband's useless look, not only did she not comfort her, but she threw her husband's hand away, resenting the fact that iron cannot make steel;
'Husband, you don't even look at it, when is it now? Song Jun Quan Zicai's troops will soon arrive outside Kaifeng City.
With the few shrimp soldiers and crab generals you have, how can you resist them? Let me tell you, let’s talk about the future. It’s only fair that we get through the current difficulties first. Seeing that Cui Li seemed to be convinced by him, the clever Huang continued to add fuel to the fire;
Even if they retreat ten thousand steps, the Song army will not be able to defend the Central Plains and the Mongolian army will attack again.
With all the wealth we have collected over the years, we can probably go down south and become rich! It's not necessarily worse than being a Mongolian loser in this wretched place.
I still don’t believe it. No matter how powerful the Mongols are, can they still defeat Lin’an? '
Don't tell me, Huang is a purdah woman, so what she said makes sense. After hearing this, Cui Li suddenly felt enlightened. The anxiety on his face faded, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
yes! Madam is right.
Regardless of whether the Mongols will retaliate or not, it is important to deal with the Song soldiers in front of them first. If he resists and is caught, the Song Army General will not let him go in order to win over Mudleg, based on his bad reputation over the years.
It would be better to surrender directly to the Song army. Maybe the Emperor of Song would be happy and promote him! You must know that Kaifeng is still the hometown of the Emperor of Song Dynasty.
"Bah!" After thinking it through, Cui Li happily kissed his wife Huang on the face. Huang covered the two blushes on her face and complained;
"Damn it! There are still people watching."
…
three days later
Quan Zi, accompanied by Cui Li, was stunned after entering the city when he saw the ruins of Kaifeng and the corpses everywhere in front of him.
He couldn't believe it. This was Bianliang, Tokyo, the prosperous capital of the Song Dynasty? This is so different from the prosperous and glorious scene of Kaifeng that he had been taught since childhood. It can be said to be a huge difference.
When he first arrived outside the city, all the blood in Quan Zicai's body was boiling.
Because he fought without a single blow, he dreamily realized the lifelong dream pursued by Yue Fei and other senior military officers. He even imagined in his mind that with this achievement, he would leave a mark in the history books after his death and become the object of praise by future generations.
No matter how beautiful the fantasy is, the reality is so cruel.
After entering the city, his previous excitement was instantly wiped away, and the blood in his body quickly cooled down from boiling.
