I don’t know when dozens of large and small felt tents have been set up on the shore of Deshengtuo. These tents are not tied up randomly, but are tied into three circles inside and outside, and there is a gold tent in the middle. A huge white felt tent with a top-colored spire!
This golden tent has a history. The original owner was the emperor of the Liao Kingdom. Although the Liao Kingdom had five capitals, Shangjing, Zhongjing, Tokyo, Nanjing, and Xijing, the Liao lords in the past dynasties rarely lived in any of these five capitals. Instead, we implement the so-called four-season alms bowl system, where we "wild" on the grasslands all year round. In the spring, we go to Yuerluo in Changchunzhou, to Yongan Mountain in the summer, to Gyeongju's Bhu Forest in the autumn, and to Gwangpyeongdeon in the winter. . The above places are all located in the Monan Grassland or the Dongdao Grassland, and they are all some distance away from each other. The emperors of the Liao Kingdom traveled between these Nabos all year round, and rarely had time to stay in their capitals. Most of the time, they lived in a large tent with a golden roof.
The golden-domed tent now placed on the shore of Deshengtuo originally belonged to Yelu Yanxi, but now it was bought by Emperor Wanyan Wu of the Jin Kingdom to entertain Hebul Khan of the Mongol tribe!
The banquet has been served, and the fragrance is really steaming inside the big tent! A complete roasted fat sheep was placed in the middle of the big tent, and it was warmed by charcoal fire below. There are large pots of hand-meat meat all around. They are all fat sheep with tender meat, slaughtered on the spot, and cooked in the pot immediately after killing. No need to add any seasoning, it is already extremely fragrant and tender.
Several beautiful Khitan girls were walking around in the big tent holding wine jugs and plates of meat. If they saw someone who had less wine or meat in front of them, they would diligently refill it for him.
There is also a Bohai chef who is carefully slicing the roasted lamb. After cutting it, he divides it into porcelain bowls. Each piece of mutton is oily and has an attractive aroma, which fills the tent. The guests and hosts were all excited.
Those present here are all Jurchen and Mengwu nobles, plus Zhao Gou, who has recognized his wild father, now called Wanyan Zonggou. Everyone else was feasting there, but Wanyan Zonggou didn't have much appetite. He just looked nervously at the two meaty-faced, unshaven and fierce-looking Mongols sitting to the left of his wild father Wanyan Wu. .
These two Mongol people are the honored guests to be entertained today. The older one is Khan Hebule from the Mongol tribe. The younger one is Balidan, the second son of Hebule.
The father and son are not too tall, but they are not ordinary stout and stocky! Their huge backs and waists are not enough to describe their burliness. They are simply two ferocious beasts sitting there eating and drinking!
Wanyan Zonggou carefully observed that the Mongols who came with Hebule and his son were all looking at their master with murderous intent... And these gang members were obviously very afraid of Hebule. Father and son!
This shows that Hebule and his son are not generally vicious!
The current Wanyan Zonggou is no longer the prince of the Song Dynasty who grew up in a greenhouse and rarely saw murderous people a year ago.
These days, he spends all day with a group of murderous "devils". He can tell who is fierce, evil and sinister at a glance.
He thought that the group of Jurchens were already very fierce, but he didn't expect that these days they are not the most ferocious, only more ferocious!
If these Mongol people were introduced to the Central Plains by the Jin people, the people of the Central Plains would probably be even more miserable... The Song Dynasty really had no way out now!
It seems that Wanyan Zonggou still has his conscience intact and is still worrying about the people of the Central Plains. As for his wild father Wanyan Wu Qimai, his mouth was full of oil after eating, and after he burped with satisfaction, he began to discuss with Hebule in Khitan language how to jointly seek the favor of the Song Dynasty.
"Hebule, next autumn, we will meet up at Yuerluo. I will take 200,000 Jurchen heavenly soldiers, and you will take your 20,000 Mongol warriors, and then we will go to the Song Dynasty to plunder... ..The east side of the river is yours to grab, and the north of the river is mine, what do you think?"
Yuerluo is located at the junction of Linhuangfu Road, Xijing Road and Nanjing Road. It is a grassland lake with lush aquatic plants around it. It was not only the Chunbabo place of the Khitan emperor, but also one of the gathering places for the Khitan people when they went south to the Central Plains.
Wanyan Wu Qimai, Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongbi, and Wanyan Zongqian have already discussed and prepared to imitate the Khitan people and gather an army in Yuerluo, and then go south in two directions. The first group was composed of Jurchen, Bohai, and Han armies, focusing on attacking several state capitals on Hebei West Road. The purpose is to capture Zhending Prefecture, Zhaozhou, Xinde Prefecture, Cizhou, Xiangzhou, Weizhou, Mingzhou, Huaizhou and other places. Push the front all the way to the north bank of the Yellow River!
The other road was left to the Mongols, Xibo, Khitan, Xi and other vassal armies to fight. The goal was Hedong... The goal of this road was not to occupy much territory, but to attract the Song army through robbery and plunder. reinforcements to weaken the Song army in Hebei.
So this road will be the first to attack!
Hebule was eating happily when he heard Wanyan Wu begging for help talking about the robbery. He did not stop eating, but replied in Khitan dialect while eating: "Okay, the east of the river belongs to me, and the north of the river belongs to you. ...That’s it!”
When Wanyan Wu heard about it, he thought: That's not right... I mean Hedong is yours to grab! Why is it yours? What do you want to do? Do you want to be the governor of Hedong?
Thinking of this, Wanyan Wu Qimai smiled and said, "Hebulehan, you heard wrong!"
Hebule laughed loudly: "Then Hebei belongs to me, and Hedong belongs to you... I am easy to talk to, so just give me one place in Hebei or Hedong!"
Do you still want Hebei?
Wu Qimai's face darkened a little, "That's not right either!"
Hebule was unhappy now. He slammed the table, glared, and shouted at Wu Qimai: "Wu Qimai, don't think I don't understand Khitan! You said at first that Hedong belongs to me, and Hebei belongs to me." It's yours... Later you said I heard it wrong! I won't argue with you, just give me one of Hebei and Hedong! Why did you say it was wrong again? What do you really want?"
Wu Qimai's real son Wanyan Zongpan saw that a barbarian from Hebule dared to talk back to his father. He immediately became angry and shouted: "Who are you Mongol people? Do you dare to covet the land east of the Song Dynasty?"
With a bang, Hebule's second son Balidan had already flipped the table - he was not afraid of the Jurchens! His grandson is Temujin (although he is not born yet), but what kind of temper does Temujin’s grandfather have? Is he someone who can speak well?
"Who are you Jurchens? Do you dare to covet the world of the Song Dynasty?" Balidan also yelled in Khitan dialect, "The Song Dynasty has so many roads, and we only need one Hedong Road. Can it be considered greedy?"
It turns out that Hebule and his son heard nothing wrong at all... they just want Hedong!
How can Mobei grassland be as good as Hedong? Just grab a handful and leave, how can it be better to keep it for a long time? Hebule and his son are just barbaric, not stupid! So Hebule and his son had already discussed that this time they would capture Hedong and take it for themselves... From now on, Balidan would be the governor of Hedong!
Of course, if the Kingdom of Jin allocates any of the roads in Hebei, Jingdong, Jingxi, Shaanxi, etc. to them, that is fine. They are not picky eaters...but they don't want it in Sichuan, Lianghuai, Jinghu, Jiangnan and other places. It's too hot and they can't stand it.
Wu Qimai was dumbfounded now. He had no intention of giving Hedong to the Mongol people. The Mongol people wandering around on the grassland are already an eyesore. Can they be cured after we capture Hedong?
But he didn't arrange for axemen... Otherwise, with an order, the axemen would swarm forward and chop Hebule and his son into pieces, and Temujin wouldn't be able to get out!
Just when Hebule didn't know what to do, Wanyan Zongpan and Balidan were already fighting.
These two are both powerful warriors, how can they talk but not take action? So after arguing for a few words, I rolled up my sleeves and got on, swinging my arms to wrestle.
There were quite a few big Jurchen figures present, but no one started a fight... How could a competition between men turn into a group fight? If he really wanted to help, Wanyan Zongpan wouldn't be happy.
And now the enemy of the Great Jin Kingdom is Zhao Kai's Song Kingdom, not the Mongols on the grassland... If they swarm up and hack Hebule and his son to death, then the Mongolian tribe has designated to rebel. What else will they do next year? Song Dynasty?
So they just watched the show, and Zongpan and Balidan fell into each other, and they were evenly matched - Wanyan Zongpan was the second generation Jurchen after the rise, and he was very skilled in martial arts! Balidan's wrestling ability is also very good, not inferior to Zong Pan.
Just when Zong Pan and Balidan were wrestling, something suddenly happened inside the tent. Hebule didn't know if he was drunk and crazy, but suddenly he overturned the table, stood up, and walked towards Wu Qimai in a swaggering manner. As he walked away, he said: "Wu Qimai, let me compete with you. If you You are a good man, I will follow you from now on, otherwise you will have to give me the territory east of Hedong!"
Wu Qimai was confused now. He is fifty-two years old this year! Moreover, after becoming the emperor, he became greedy and fed himself with good food and drink every day. Now he is a fat man with fat all over his body. How can he fight with Hebu Le?
But he can't shout for help! How shameful to shout for help! So he quickly winked at Wanyan Zonghan, Wanyan Zongbi, Wanyan Zongqian, Wanyan Xiebao and others, hoping that they would take the initiative to challenge.
It's a pity that none of these people were motionless... In the end, Wu Qimai's eyes fell on Wanyan Zonggou!
Wanyan Zonggou was different from those other Wanyan's. He had already stood up and was holding a wine glass in his hand. When his wild father saw him, Zonggou knew what to do!
He needs to be escorted!
So he immediately threw the wine glass away and shouted: "Hebule, watch the beating!"
It really hit! The wine glass hit the half-drunk Hebule on the forehead, which made Genghis Khan's ancestors angry. Instead of fighting Wu Qiu, he screamed and pounced on Wanyan Zonggou, who was "hurting people with hidden weapons".
In fact, Wanyan Zonggou is quite strong, and he also knows a bit of sumo wrestling. If he really wants to fight, he may not be able to defeat Hebu Le, but he is cowardly! Completely stunned, Hebule grabbed him without any reaction at all, and his hammer-like fists hit Wanyan Zonggou like raindrops...
