    Chapter 280 What Han Zhongwei is most interested in Although Han Zhongwei owns three cement factories and six red brick factories, building a capital city cannot be built overnight. Even if Han Zhongwei's financial, material and human resources go all out, according to his estimation,  , it will take at least a year to take shape.  .  .  It will take less than three to five years to build all the facilities.  But Jamuka¡¯s Mongol Khanate could not wait so long, and Han Zhongwei did not want to waste time.  The two discussed and decided to formally establish the Mongolian Khanate before Han Zhongwei left the grassland.  As for Jamukha's khan name, Han Zhongwei duty-boundly helped him come up with one: Genghis Khan was a name that pleased Jamukha very much. He didn't know that in the original history, this name would be world-famous and prestigious, making his enemies  As soon as he heard the name, he became frightened and ran away.  When Jamukha became Genghis Khan, Han Zhongwei gave him two great gifts. One was two thousand sets of cowhide military uniforms, which were urgently produced by the Blackwater Textile Factory and customized for the Mongols.  This military uniform is divided into a top and trousers. The trousers have a similar design to that of the escort, but the top has an extra hem. When riding on a horse, it rises and falls with the horse's back, which is really good-looking.  These two thousand sets of military uniforms make Jamuka¡¯s newly established personal army appear energetic and high-spirited.  This can be regarded as a disguised way of giving face to Jamukha, especially when Jamukha saw the expressions of the chiefs of other tribes seeing his own soldiers, he was even more happy.  King Xia is indeed King Xia, and even the gifts he gives are so original.  The second ceremony made Jamukha even happier, because Han Zhongwei decided to increase the prices of various livestock on the Mongolian grassland five times at a time. Of course, this was only limited to Jamukha's Mongol Khanate, or in the name of his Mongol Khanate  , other places are not outside of this.  Originally, the local price of a Mongolian war horse was about ten guan, but after it was shipped to the Song Dynasty, Han Zhongwei could sell it for 100 guan.  The profits were huge, but now Han Zhongwei decided to reduce his profits in favor of the Mongol Khanate.  How could this not make Jamuka happy?  He was even very moved. As Han Zhongwei said, in the future, people in the Mongolian Khanate could live a prosperous life at such a high price as long as they casually feed livestock on the grasslands or ask people to raise some livestock.  Although Han Zhongwei seems to have doubled his profits, only those who have actually done business know that Han Zhongwei's risks not only increased five times immediately, but his profits not only decreased five times.  From the Mongolian grasslands to the Song Dynasty, it is more than five thousand miles?  After such a long journey, can all the purchased livestock be guaranteed to survive?  Can we guarantee that they will not die unexpectedly due to illness or other reasons on the road?  Take war horses as an example. In the past, one war horse only had ten strings. It only took about a month to transport 10,000 war horses to the Song Dynasty.  As long as they are carefully cared for and fed carefully on the road, there will only be hundreds of casualties.  But now because the purchase price has increased fivefold, even if there are only about a hundred casualties, compared to before, it is only five or six hundred horses.  When Han Zhongwei said these words in front of Jamuka, his officials and other former tribal chiefs on the grassland, everyone was shocked.  The same is true, including Jamuka. Not everyone can do such a business, such as long-distance livestock trafficking, and not everyone has such strength and ability.  Han Zhongwei certainly has such strength and ability. Whether his goods are traveling from the Kingdom of Jin or to Xixia, they can flow smoothly.  Coupled with his good relationship with Jamuka, Jamuka would agree to the purchase even if it was half the original price, not to mention five times the price.  What's more, Jamukha had already reached an agreement with Han Zhongwei, and all business on the grassland could only be done by Han Zhongwei's people.  Even if others want to intervene, they must obtain Han Zhongwei's consent and apply to him.  Otherwise, even if someone buys the necessary goods on the grassland, they will never be able to cross the grassland.  But now Han Zhongwei not only did not take advantage of his own advantages, but also took the initiative to give up the huge profits to the Mongol Khanate.  "Your Majesty, on behalf of all the people on the grassland, I sincerely thank you for your generosity." Jamuka took a long time to react and said excitedly.  Han Zhongwei had long told him that he would let the people on the grassland live a prosperous and stable life under his leadership, Jamuhe. Now Han Zhongwei has raised the livestock purchase price five times at a time, and the wealth of the Mongolian Khanate is equivalent to  His words improved five times. Even if Jamukha didn't understand economics, he knew that his people would soon be able to live a prosperous life.  Think about it, every household's wealth suddenly increased fivefold because of Han Zhongwei's words. It was impossible for them not to be rich.  "Genghis Khan, this is what you deserve. I once promised to let the people of your Khanate live a prosperous and stable life. Now this is just the first step. I believe that after those cities are built, you  The people will be able to live a stable life," Han Zhongwei said with a smile.?In this world, how tempting is a stable and prosperous life to ordinary people?  As long as Jamukha can do these two things, his position as Khan will be unshakable and cannot be shaken by anyone, except of course Han Zhongwei.  "Your Majesty, you have no repayment for my great kindness and virtue, Jamuka, of the Mongol Khanate. Therefore, I want to marry you. Apart from me, you will be the best among the Mongol Khanate."  Jamukha said that if he had not become Genghis Khan, he would not have said anything if he married Han Zhongwei as Anda, but now that he has a distinguished status, whoever marries Jamukha as Anda at this time would probably be the same.  Half Genghis Khan.  "Well, well, in fact, you and I are not brothers, but we are better than brothers. There is really no need to marry or not." Han Zhongwei smiled, being able to marry Genghis Khan of the Mongolian Khanate, he  Of course I won't refuse. In that case, I will have more control over the Mongol Khanate.  As soon as Han Zhongwei arrived, he presented two thousand sets of new military uniforms and increased the purchase price of livestock from the Mongolian Khanate by five times. With these two points alone, he was qualified to marry Zhamu as Anda and enjoy superior treatment.  What's more, Han Zhongwei originally had a sworn relationship with Jamuka. Chiefs of some tribes, such as Wang Khan of the Kelei tribe and Taiyang Khan of the Naiman tribe, vaguely knew that it was precisely because of Han Zhongwei behind Jamuka that he was able to pass through and kill the generals.  The Yan tribe was driven out of the prairie and established the Mongol Khanate.  It can be said that without Han Zhongwei, there would be no Jamukha today, and there would be no unified Mongolian Khanate.  These people even felt that it was appropriate to list Han Zhongwei as the Supreme King Khan of the Mongol Khanate. Although he did not have any title or official position in the Mongol Khanate, Jamuka had never disobeyed his suggestions.  What¡¯s more, Han Zhongwei will also build three cities for the Mongol Khanate for free. The capital city under construction alone will be able to accommodate at least 500,000 people and one million livestock.  How much manpower, material resources, and financial resources will be consumed on such a scale?  But Han Zhongwei didn't even mention a word. He waved his hand and gave it to Jamukha.  Is such a person qualified to marry Genghis Khan?  Yes, of course there was, so no one in the Golden Horde raised any objections.  Even if these people don't know that the person standing behind Jamuka is Han Zhongwei, they should also understand that Han Zhongwei is still the Xia King of Xixia at this time.  He also has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, and has built a guard city in the territory of the original Ji Qiyan tribe. That city Jamuka has made it clear that it will be Han Zhongwei's private territory.  No one, including him, Jamuka, can get involved in the guard city, otherwise he will not only be severely attacked by the guards, but also become Jamuka's enemy.  He, the newly appointed Genghis Khan, did not hesitate to use the entire country's troops to attack him.  The etiquette on the Mongolian grasslands is far less cumbersome than that in the Central Plains. Jamuka¡¯s crowning ceremony was completed in one day.  At the same time, the appointment of civilian officials and the integration of the army were also completed accordingly. The government affairs of the Mongol Khanate were not cumbersome, and there were not many officials. The total number of officials in the entire Mongol Khanate was less than a hundred.  There were nearly fifty officials around Jamuka.  There are more generals in the army. The entire Mongol Khanate now has a regular army of 200,000, organized into teams of 200,000.  Half of them are former generals of Jamuka's Plateau Zatala tribe.  The other ten ten thousand captains were also produced from the tribes that first pledged their allegiance to Jamuka.  These twenty captains of ten thousand were not selected based on bravery and intelligence. The main reason why they became captains of ten thousand was their loyalty to Jamuka.  If he fails to pass the test of loyalty, no matter how good he is, he will not be elected as the Captain of Ten Thousands.  The selection of captains of thousands is generally based on the selection principles of captains of ten thousand. However, Jamukha cannot do too much for some people who are already famous on the grassland. Even if they are not completely loyal to him for the time being, he has also selected some.  Appointed captain of thousands.  As long as you control all the captains of thousands, a few captains will not be able to accomplish great things.  What's more, Jamukha carefully selected the centurions under the commanders of thousands. Even if those commanders had different intentions, they had the commander of thousands to check and balance them, and the centurions below to disobey orders, it was not enough to accomplish anything.  After watching the ceremony, Han Zhongwei returned to the Black City with his palace guards and Du Gao.  Now in the Guard City, in addition to the First Division of the First Guard Army, there is the newly established Second Guard Army.  Originally, Han Zhongwei wanted to bring the Second Guard Army back to Black City, but considering that there was no war in Black City, there was no need to take them back.  Although the Second Guard Army has undergone ideological transformation, an army that has not shed blood for Han Zhongwei cannot be regarded as his direct descendant.  It's just that we haven't given the Second Guard Army a chance to show off their skills yet, so let them stay in the Guard City for the time being.  Now the city guard of the city is temporarily held by Fu Heng of the first division. At the same time, the second army of the guard is also under his control.  Regardless of the fact that there were more than 10,000 people in the Second Guard Army, in Han Zhongwei's heart, there was a difference between closeness and distance. He was really worried if he didn't hand it over to Fu Heng.    Han Zhongwei returned to Black City, and the news of the establishment of the Mongolian Khanate spread. The whole world was talking about it, especially the Jin Kingdom. The Mongolian grassland has always been their territory.  Although the current military strength of the Jin Kingdom can only be at a stalemate with Mongolia, Jamukha has now unified all the Mongolian tribes, which makes Wanyan Jing very worried.  But with the current military strength of the Jin Kingdom, it is already very good to be able to guard the borders of the Jin Kingdom from being invaded by the Mongols. How could it be possible to send more troops into the grassland?  Jamuhe established the Mongol Khanate without even informing Wanyan Jing. Wasn't this a slap in the face to his face?  No, it is tolerable, but what is intolerable?  Wanyan Jing summoned Wanyan Xun again, because the crisis at the border of the Jin Kingdom was now resolved in the Mongolian grasslands unified by Jamukha.  All the Jin generals, including Wan Yanxiang, returned to Zhongdu.  ¡°Brother, have you heard about what happened on the Mongolian grassland?¡± Wanyan Jing said politely when she saw Wanyan Xun.  "Your Majesty, did you summon me just for this matter?" Of course Wanyan Xun knew about this matter, and now I'm afraid the whole world knows about it. Jamuka unexpectedly unified the grasslands and defeated the Naiman tribe, and now even more so  He established the Mongol Khanate and called himself Genghis Khan, which was truly audacious.  He can unify the grasslands and defeat the Naiman tribe, but he can never build a khanate without Dajin's permission. Isn't this an obvious fight with Dajin to the end?  "Yes, I originally thought that there was Jamuka on the grassland, and the Plateau Zadala tribe was tossing around, just in time for me, Dajin, to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. But I didn't expect that Jamuka moved so fast. In just a few months, it was done.  They unified the grasslands and established a khanate," Wanyan Jing sighed.  "The emperor means to attack Jamuka?" Wanyan Xun asked.  "Crunt? You've been at the border for half a year. What do you think my chances of winning if I, Dajin, go deep into the Mongolian grassland?" Wanyan Jing glanced at Wanyan Xun dissatisfied. This eldest brother of his was really good at joking. Such words  I can also say it casually.  Once the news spread that Dajin was going to attack the Mongol Khanate, it would be impossible for Wanyan Jing not to attack Jamuka.  But in that case, Daijin might be brought to a point of catastrophe.  "If I, Dajin, have depleted our troops and want to attack Jamukha, I have no chance of winning even 10%." Wanyanxun said sadly. In the past, several Mongolian tribes near the border made Dajin rack their brains, but now Jamukha  He unified all the tribes on the grassland in one fell swoop. His army alone numbered 200,000. Who dared to stroke his tiger beard?  "Yes, force will definitely not work. Do you remember what Han Zhongwei said when he came to Zhongdu last time?" Wanyan Jing said. At that time, Han Zhongwei made an agreement with him that the two of them would each find an agent on the grassland, and Zamu  He Zheng was Han Zhongwei's agent.  Now Han Zhongwei has supported Jamuka to become Genghis Khan, but his agent, Wang Khan of the Kelie tribe, seemed not to even dare to fart when he saw Jamuka's army.  He also gave away the 20,000 troops of the Kled tribe. Such an agent is simply worse than a pig or a dog.  "He said that Daikin and I each found an agent on the grassland and let them fight each other, making the entire grassland unpeaceful. But now Jamukha, who he supports, has unified the grassland in one fell swoop. Do you think Han Zhongwei was behind this?  "?" Wanyan Xun suddenly felt a chill on his back. How old is Han Zhongwei?  Although he called his master affectionately in front of Han Zhongwei, he lost a bet and he was convinced of his defeat.  But now Han Zhongwei silently supports Jamukha, allowing Jamukha to not only drive away Temujin of the Qiyan tribe, but now he has unified the Mongolian grasslands and established the Mongol Khanate.  He Jamuka also jumped from the original chief of the Zhadara tribe on the plateau to become Genghis Khan. If there was no shadow of Han Zhongwei behind this, he would not believe it even if he were killed.  But Wanyan Xun might not be able to convince himself that everything was ordered by Han Zhongwei.  "I have sent people to the Mongolian grasslands to contact the King Khan of the Klei tribe. Since Jamukha, who was originally not as powerful as him, can dominate the grasslands, why can't he, the Klei tribe, become the new Mongolian Khan? I have already promised to Klei.  As long as he unseats Jamukha, I will recognize him as the new Khan of the Mongolian Khanate," Wanyanjing said. He actually knew that even if Jamukha had the shadow of Han Zhongwei behind him, this would not be the case.  It's not Han Zhongwei's fault.  At the beginning, Han Zhongwei came to Zhongdu to exchange opinions with him. I remember that he seemed to have agreed to Han Zhongwei at that time.  Dajin supported Wang Khan, and Han Zhongwei supported Jamuka, letting them fight to the death on the grassland. Wanyanjing and Han Zhongwei watched the excitement from the side, and by the way, the Mongols had no time to take care of Dajin.  "Now that Jamukha has become Genghis Khan, the best time to unseat him has passed." Wanyan Xun shook his head. It is impossible for the Klei tribe to succeed, at least at the moment.  Unless there is external assistance, with Wang Khan's character and strength, it is impossible to compete with Jamuka. He is not even qualified to be Jamuka's opponent.  Otherwise, he would have been taken in by Wang Khan long agoAt the time of Temujin, the two should have joined forces to defeat Jamukha in one fell swoop.  "That's exactly why I asked you to come. You have to go to the Black City right now to discuss with Han Zhongwei. You can't make those Mongolians live too comfortably. You have to let them fight among themselves. If the fighting continues, the blood of the Mongols will be  It will slowly disappear and eventually achieve our goal," Wan Yanjing said.  "Going to the Black City? Your Majesty, you also know Han Zhongwei's temperament. He can get away with being unreasonable. What's more, we are going to beg him. How many benefits have you prepared for him? Let's make it clear first. If the benefits are not enough, I will not leave.  Rather than humiliating himself, it is better to stay in Zhongdu, at least he won't have to suffer." Wanyan Xun was absolutely telling the truth. Every time he dealt with Han Zhongwei, he never won. Even if he occasionally gained the upper hand, it was only temporary.  Yes, when he woke up, it was too late, and the advantage at that time was for greater benefits in the future.  "Money, reputation, official position, I can't give Han Zhongwei any of these, but I can give him the thing he is most interested in and the thing he can't resist: land," Wanyan Jing gritted her teeth and said slowly.     free( )
