"Clear? Clear? Hahahaha..."
Genghis Khan laughed.
Horchi is a very useful and intelligent shaman. After Genghis Khan and Jamuka broke up, his subordinates were quite frightened. In front of everyone, Horchi publicly told Genghis Khan that he had a dream yesterday. He dreamed that a white cow knocked over Jamukha's tent and car with its horns, and a strong bullock pulled the big tent. The owner of the house rushed over and shouted, "Destiny has decreed Temujin to be the master of the country, and I have brought the country here!"
This dream was so clear that it was quickly spread by many Mongolians. As a result, Genghis Khan's uncle Dalitai, his cousin Altan, Sacha Beqi, and Huchaer were overwhelmed by the public sentiment, and finally gave Temu the throne that had been vacant for a long time after the heroic Hutula Khan. real.
At that time, Genghis Khan was overjoyed and promised to grant Horchi the status of a household in the future, and allowed him to choose the thirty most beautiful women at will.
But not long after, another famous great shaman, Kuo Kuo Chu, received special trust from Genghis Khan. When he was under the enfeoffment group, Genghis Khan hesitated to treat Horchi. And Huo Erchi is really a wonderful person. In the public, he only stares at the promises of the thirty beauties, but does not mention Wanhu's status at all.
In the end, Genghis Khan still led 3,000 people from the neighboring tribes of Ba'a with Horchi, and benefited from the people of the four tribes of Atarjin, Chenasi, Tuoerlesi and Teliangguti, making them ten thousand households.
After Wanhu took office, he rarely managed the military affairs beyond his subordinate Qianhu Nayan. Instead, he continued to follow Genghis Khan and became a shaman accompanying the army. Even though Kuokuo was later killed by Genghis Khan, Horchi still peacefully served as his army shaman, and the words he said always made Genghis Khan very comfortable.
However, Genghis Khan couldn't help but make a joke at this moment, so he asked: "Who is the enemy? Did Changshengtian tell me which enemy can be defeated this time?"
Huoerchi bowed his head deeply and said nothing. His sly eyes flickered around under Genghis Khan's eyes, and finally he saw a tambourine thrown nearby. He rushed over, grabbed the tambourine, and started singing and dancing, pretending not to hear anything.
The will of Changshengtian is so elusive and lofty that even the best shaman cannot clearly understand it. Occasionally, there were a few times when the will of Changshengtian was so clear that Huoerchi could make a conclusion. In fact, that was what Genghis Khan meant.
But this time, because Huoerchi understood what Genghis Khan meant, he understood that the enemies Genghis Khan mentioned were not only in the Jin Kingdom in the south, but also in the grasslands in the north. So, he didn't want to speak anyway.
And this silence showed his intelligence even more clearly.
This embarrassing situation, as well as Horchi's awkward dancing posture, made Genghis Khan laugh and put away all those depressed emotions.
After all, Horchi was just a shaman. He didn't dare to think about Genghis Khan's grand intentions, and he couldn't understand them.
If you want to achieve something that no one can imagine, you will inevitably have to face many enemies. Some of them were motivated by malicious intent, and some were just lazy, lazy, or ignorant, so that they could not keep up with Genghis Khan. ….
It is normal for the nobles on the grassland to be like this.
It is precisely because they are mostly such people that for thousands of years the starry sky has rotated, tribes have attacked each other, fighting and plundering endlessly, leaving no time for people to sleep, while millions of children of the grassland have killed each other for some trivial interests or hatred. , Generation after generation wasted their precious strength.
To change them, it is impossible to rely on the authority of the Great Khan. The authority of the Great Khan comes from the approval of everyone. The more people recognize it, the more they will encourage each other to obey authority. But if authority is abused and someone openly refuses or opposes it, everyone will be suspicious and authority will begin to waver.
Genghis Khan valued his authority and would never abuse it.
His response was to continue waging war.
Through war, find more interests or more enemies for the Mongols outside the grasslands. This will draw the Mongols' attention as much as possible, arouse their fighting spirit as much as possible, and then force them to gradually become accustomed to Genghis Khan's command during the war, and abandon the foolish ideas they once insisted on.
The benefits are easy to find.
When the Mongolian army attacked the Xingzhong Mansion of the Xia Kingdom before, the gold, silver, treasures, cattle, horses and livestock extorted from the Tang Wuti people were enough to make every soldier who participated in the battle wealthy. By the Year of the Dog, when they invaded the mainland of Jin, they gained ten times more.
Genghis Khan has heard legends since he was a child that the Zhongdu City of the Kingdom of Jin is the place where the heavenly people live. In that city, there is endless gold and treasures. Therefore, he absolutely believed that after he captured the capital of the Kingdom of Jin, what he obtained would make everyone red-eyed and make those who did not participate in the war beat their chests and regret for a hundred years.
As for where the enemy is, it's a little more difficult.
In the past few years, rivers of blood flowed under the hooves of the Mongolian army. Even if they suffered casualties in several cities, they would always massacre the city in revenge. There are always enemies, but they rarely live long, so they are difficult to set up as long-term targets.
If you must look for it...
Genghis Khan suddenly thought of his son Tuo Lei, and thought of Tuo Lei's hateful eyes when he talked about a Jin general after he returned to the grassland earlier. It is said that the general was very brave and once captured Tuo Lei, which caused him great humiliation.
Genghis Khan could not remember the name of that general. He only remembered that the soldiers and horses he commanded were called Ding Haijun, and his surname was Guo, the same as Guo Baoyu.
Guo Baoyu is also a good general, and his riding and shooting skills are no less than those of Mongolian athletes. Maybe among Han'er, everyone with the surname Guo is very good at fighting.
But what kind of enemy is a single brave general? Genghis Khan had seen too many brave generals, and the bravest was none other than Zhebie. But isn't Zhebie now a subordinate of the Great Khan, and is he going on expeditions here and there for the sake of the Great Khan?
Genghis Khan put these thoughts aside and began to discuss in detail the arrangements for the army's operations with Muhuali. The headquarters of the Mongolian army is mainly based on cavalry, and only dispersing and grazing can meet the logistics needs. But following Genghis Khan south this time, there were also a huge number of Wanggu people, Khitans and Han people. They couldn't do it with two or three horses per person, gathering and scattering like the wind.
In addition, it is also very difficult to transport the siege equipment built by Mu Huali in Dading Mansion. ….
The two asked Shiji Hutulu to participate in the calculation, and determined that the entire Beijing Road must be spared 100,000 men and women to serve as people's servants in order to meet the consumption of the siege of the Jin Kingdom's capital, and all the grain stored in the cities on Beijing Road must be used to support it. Just fine.
Speaking of this, Mu Huali casually mentioned that there were still Jurchen espionage activities around Dading Mansion. In order to prevent the emperor of Jin from learning about his actions, he had to send light cavalry everywhere. It is best to kill all the people moving in the wild, so as to ensure that no news leaks out and that our army's actions can be sudden.
Genghis Khan had no objection to this.
His original intention was to massacre the Wanggu, Khitan and Han people in a sea of blood under Zhongdu City, leaving the Mongolian army headquarters free to fight in the field and provide reinforcements.
The Mongolian cavalry itself moved across the country, which was sudden enough in the wild. As for the army besieging Zhongdu, there is no need to consider the suddenness, because the bigger and earlier their momentum is, the more Jin troops from various places will be attracted to come and die.
And the longer the siege time on the city is, the better. Because the longer it goes on, the more attention this battle will attract on the grassland. In this case, when Genghis Khan enjoys the wealth of the city after his victory, some people will regret it and burst into tears.
However, killing a group of civilians who were active in the wild was not a big deal. He was too lazy to criticize his capable subordinates on this matter.
But it was the secret agent Mu Huali mentioned that aroused his interest, and he asked a few questions casually.
Mu Huali was very serious and immediately asked people to go to the two slaughtered villages and bring back the weapons found in the villages.
"Great Khan, you see, these straight knives and bows and arrows are extremely sophisticated, and they are newly made. The inscription on the blade means that in the second year of Zhenyou, he was designated as the second prisoner of the Navy Ordnance Department. In the past few months Here, the Ding Navy was very active in the Liaodong area and directly controlled Gaizhou and Fuzhou. I heard that they also wiped out a large number of rebels in the southern part of the Jin Kingdom and seized large areas of territory. I estimate that this group of spies is Guo Ning, the Ding Navy subordinates. Their actions towards us are unusual!"
"Huh? Yes
interest! "
Genghis Khan became energetic when he heard the familiar name. .
