Chapter 295 The Destruction of the Kingdom of Jin 6 Sangkun¡¯s ambitions grew as he gained control over the tribe during this period. For the Kelie tribe, he knew that he would eventually have to take charge of the family in the future, but for the Mongolian Khanate, Sangkun also felt that he would It's not a big deal that Jamukha replaced him. . . Now Jamukha has just defeated the Jin army, and his father Khan has to sit back and wait for death. Will the Kelie tribe have a chance to raise its head in the future? Even if there is, is it possible for the Kelei tribe to unify the Mongolian tribes and become the Mongolian Khan? This is obviously impossible. Wang Khan does not have the confidence to unify the grassland, but Sangkun has the ambition to unify the grassland. What's the harm if Wanyan Xun loses? Even if his 100,000-strong army were completely annihilated, it was impossible for the Jin army to sit down and have peace talks with Jamuka. If Jamuka continued to establish a country, that would be a blatant betrayal of the Jin country, and Wanyan Jing would not allow it anyway. Although when the situation was pressing, he might verbally acknowledge the existence of the Mongol Khanate, but deep down in his heart, he was absolutely unwilling to see the rise of a powerful and unified Mongol Khanate. Now the Kelie tribe is in rebellion and even initially besieged Jamukha in the Mongolian capital. This gave the Jin Kingdom hope and the hope of killing Jamukha in the cradle. It is precisely because of this that Wanyan Xun led an army of 100,000 to come to help. Wang Han couldn't even see this. He was frightened by Jamukha. Jamukha, who was surrounded by tens of thousands of landmines, was able to come out and defeat the Jin army outside the city. This What kind of strength is it? Half of the entire Mongolian grassland's strength was originally concentrated around Jamuka. Even if he conquered other tribes, what would be the use. "Come on, I'm going back to the capital." Wang Khan finally decided to turn back. He didn't want to be like Temujin and lead his people to wander the world. Jamukha was able to fight back in such a bad situation. This was simply going against the will of heaven. He had no confidence in being an enemy of such a person. Ever since he heard about Wanyan Xun's defeat, he no longer had any confidence. It was quiet outside the tent, no one answered, "Here comes" Wang Han yelled again, are all these people deaf? Wang Khan walked out of the tent and found a row of soldiers standing outside the tent, but they were not his own soldiers. His expression immediately changed, "Who sent you?" No one answered, not even those people. Give him a look like he's really deaf. "Bang" Wang Khan drew out his scimitar, raised his hand and was about to slash at a soldier standing next to him "Father Khan" Sangkun's voice appeared in time, leaving Wang Khan's scimitar in mid-air. middle. "Is this one of yours?" Wang Khan was furious. Sangkun was so bold. His behavior was tantamount to declaring rebellion. "I am also thinking about the future of the Kelie tribe." Sangkun said calmly in the face of Wang Khan's angry eyes. "What did you say? It seems that your wings are really strong." Wang Khan looked at Sangkun's stubborn eyes and sighed inwardly. Jamukha is even younger than Sangkun, but he has unified the grassland and Sangkun. It is reasonable to be dissatisfied, not to mention that he now has the firearms that Jamukha relied on to win and the support of the Jin Kingdom that Jamukha did not have before. Although there was also a Xia king from Xixia behind Jamuka, a prince could not be compared with the emperor of Dajin after all. This can be seen from the fact that Han Zhongwei only sent 20,000 escort troops into the grassland, while Wanyan Jing sent 100,000 gold soldiers into the grassland at once. "Father Khan, you can actually rest assured. Even if Jamukha really defeats Wanyan Xun, his position as King Khan will still be unstable." Sangkun said calmly. Wang Khan panicked after hearing Wanyan Xun's defeat. The appearance made him very disappointed, and now he had to return to the capital to apologize to Jamukha. If he hadn't taken precautions in advance, things would have been terrible. "Okay, I won't go to the capital, but to Zhongdu. Is that okay?" Wang Khan sighed. He decided to let go and let Sangkun try his best. If he didn't succeed, he would reserve a way for him in Zhongdu first. retreat. "Zhongdu? If Father Khan really wants to go, please set off immediately and personally report to the Emperor of the Jin Kingdom so that he can know the news of Wanyan Xun's defeat as soon as possible." Sang Kun rolled his eyes and said quickly. The Jin Kingdom would have known about it a day earlier. The news that the entire army of one hundred thousand gold soldiers was annihilated would have made him angry and launched another attack on Jamuka the day before. Although Sangkun is very confident, he also knows that it is difficult for his own family to compete with Jamukha. Only with the full support of the Kingdom of Jin can it be possible to defeat Jamukha and finally allow himself to sit on his current throne. That chair. Wanyan Jing actually learned the news of Wanyan Xun¡¯s fiasco two days earlier than Wang Khan. He had two sources of information. One was some people who slipped through the net that night. After they escaped, they even returned to the Mongolian capital? All of them just hated their parents for giving birth to two legs. With the help of the four legs, they returned to Zhongdu without looking back. Another source of information is the envoy sent by Jamukha.Now Wanyan Xun has fallen into the hands of Jamuka. Originally, he wanted to kill Wanyan Xun, but Sangkun seized power at the critical moment, allowing Wanyan Xun to temporarily escape the disaster, so Jamuka sent to Zhongdu. , let Wanyan Jing redeem her. Now Wanyanjing heard the news about Wanxun from Wang Han again. Of course, he was not in a good mood and did not give him a good look. Even after Wang Han saluted, he did not let anyone help him. Sit on the chair. "Why did you divide your troops?" Wanyan Jing suppressed her anger and asked coldly after Wang Han finished speaking. "At that time, Jamukha's city could not be conquered for a long time. General Wanyan organized several attacks on the city, but all failed. Therefore, we decided to trap Jamukha in the city first, and then subdue the other tribes, leaving Jamukha alone. "Unexpectedly, less than two days after we left, he launched an attack on the army outside the city." Wang Han still has not figured out how Jamuka's troops came out. Could it be that he was already outside the city. Laying an ambush? But if that were the case, he wouldn't let himself go. "Since you used firearms to seal the city, how did Jamuka's army get out of the city?" Wanyan Jing asked. "This is exactly what I am puzzled by." Wang Han only heard about it, so he didn't know the reason. "You go down now. Since you are here, you will stay in Zhongdu for a while." Wanyan Jing saw that he couldn't ask Wang Han anything, so she was not in the mood to talk to him anymore. Now he was bored, Wanyan Jing Xun is now a prisoner, and only a few hundred people from the 100,000-strong army have returned. These are all things that give him a headache. Looking at Wang Khan's old figure, Wanyan Jing cursed secretly, "Old fool, if he hadn't planned to divide the troops, how could he and Wanyan Xun, with nearly 200,000 troops, be afraid of Jamuka's sneak attack?" But now that the matter has come to this, it is impossible for him to take down Wang Khan. After all, the matters on the grassland still rely on the efforts of the Klei tribe, and the Klei tribe is indeed more obedient. As soon as Wang Khan left, Wanyan Xiang, the left prime minister and privy envoy of the Jin Kingdom, came in to see him. Wanyan Jing knew that the matter of Jamuka was definitely being discussed, so he immediately let him in. When he saw Wanyan Xiang, before he could greet him, Wanyan Jing opened his mouth and asked, "Have you found out?" What he meant by whether he had found out or not was how Jamuka's army suddenly appeared in Wanyan Xun's command. On the periphery of the army, what Wanyanjing was most worried about was whether the troops attacking by surprise would be Han Zhongwei's escort. He had used seven state capitals in exchange for Han Zhongwei's indifference to Jamukha. If Han Zhongwei continued to support Jamukha as strongly as before, then he would have suffered a big loss, and it would be too unfair for the 100,000-strong army to die as well. . "I just got the news and can conclude that the army that attacked Wanyan Xun was Jamuka's Mongolian army and had nothing to do with the guards. As for how they suddenly appeared behind Wanyan Xun, we also have the answer. Jamuka passed through two tunnels Send the troops outside the city before launching a surprise attack," Wan Yanxiang said. This is the latest news from the Mongolian capital. Although Jamuka has ordered to keep it secret, the 80,000 troops left the city through tunnels. , and also fought such a big victory, it is impossible to completely keep the secret. At most, the entrance to the secret passage will not be known to outsiders. As for the secret of the tunnel, it cannot be kept under any circumstances. "As long as it has nothing to do with the escort, Wanyanxiang, what do you think we should do next?" Wanyanjing breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Han Zhongwei can keep his promise, he believes that Jamuka will be killed. "Surge troops." Wan Yanxiang uttered two words softly. Although he was a prime minister and a civil servant, what really allowed him to ascend to a high position was the military. It was precisely because he had great success in using troops against the Mongolian tribes several times. Victory, this is where we are today. "How much more?" Wanyan Jing also knew that Jamuka could not be defeated without increasing the number of troops, but there was no final decision yet on how many troops to send and who would lead them. "Five hundred thousand" Wan Yanxiang spat out these three words softly, as if he was talking about fifty people instead of five hundred thousand. "Half a million?" Wanyan Jing frowned. This would mobilize all the troops that could be used in the country. If something happened again in the country, the imperial court would be without troops. Although the Kingdom of Jin has more than one million soldiers and horses, it cannot use all the elite troops in the capital. Especially after what happened to Li Ping'an, Wanyan Jing was particularly concerned about the troops and generals in the capital. He was so cautious that he even sent spies to monitor the generals in the capital around the clock and report to him once a day. "Yes, and the capital must send at least 100,000 troops." In fact, Wanyanxiang's weight of 500,000 may not be enough. If he wanted to beat Jamuhe to death with a stick, it would be best to have an army of one million, using lions to fight rabbits. situation, and completely solved Mongolia's hidden dangers in one fell swoop. But I can only think about this in my mind. If I really want to bring it up, don't say that Wanyan Jing won't agree. Even she won't agree to such a crazy idea.Now half a million troops are being sent into the grassland. It seems like a lot, but Wanyanxiang still feels that it is not enough. Fighting in the grassland is no better than other places. Many times we will face the choice of dividing our troops. Don't look at the fact that half a million people sound scary. , but if the troops are divided again and again, they will soon be divided into an army of 100,000 units. If Jamuka uses it properly, he will probably be defeated by him one by one. Of course, now with the full support of the Kelie tribe, on the grassland, the Jin army is no longer the same deaf and blind people as before. "Are you sure?" Wanyan Jing pondered for a long time, and then asked slowly. Although Wanyan Xiang's proposal of an army of 500,000 surprised him, he was not surprised. The garrison in the capital also had 100,000 troops. Thousands of people, which made him a little hesitant. "Only 70%." Wanyanxiang was well aware of Dajin's military strength. Without the 100,000-strong army of the Klei tribe as allies, he would not have advocated allowing Dajin's army to enter the Mongolian grasslands. With Jin's current strength, being able to guard the border and prevent the Mongols from invading is already a very good achievement. "Seventy percent?" Wanyanjing looked at Wanyanxiang and thought, this is already a very high chance. He knew Wanyanxiang very well and never said anything that he was not sure about. Since he said he was seventy percent sure, There must be something to rely on. "If Han Zhongwei can support us in turn, then we are 100% sure." Wanyanxiang added. He started paying attention to Han Zhongwei last year. The speed at which this person became successful in Xixia was really amazing. In just two years, he started to pay attention to Han Zhongwei. In three years, he went from a commoner to an extremely noble prince, and the current Emperor of Xixia was appointed by him. Li Zunxu was just a puppet. Even Jamukha of the Mongol Khanate obeyed Han Zhongwei's words. If Dai Jin could get the support of Han Zhongwei, he would not even need an army of 500,000 to help Sangkun of the Klei tribe become the Mongolian Khan. "Han Zhongwei has an excellent relationship with Jamuka. It is very difficult to persuade him not to participate in the Mongolian affairs. It will be difficult for him to support us in attacking Jamuka." Wanyan Jing shook his head and persuaded Han Zhongwei to remain neutral. He paid the price of seven state capitals. If Han Zhongwei joins his camp, how much more will he have to pay? Wanyanxiang knew that it was impossible to win the support of Han Zhongwei, but fortunately the emperor did not veto the proposal of an army of 500,000. If Wanyanjing did not have the courage to send 100,000 or 200,000 troops to Mongolia at a time, then that would be The worst thing. Finally, when it came to the matter of commanding the general, this time the two agreed that Wan Yanxiang would personally lead the army. Now in Daikin, only Wanyanxiang is qualified for this position. If it were anyone else, whether it was Wanyanjing or Wanyanxiang, they would not be at ease. Wan Yanxiang even bluntly said that if it were anyone else, the chance of success would be at most 40%. Since they decided to use troops against Mongolia and mobilize all the troops in the country, Wanyan Jing and Wanyan Xiang were very cautious. When the army is dispatched, food and grass go first. With half a million troops going to Mongolia, they must be well prepared, which will take a relatively long time. And during this period of time, Wanyan Jing had to do one more thing, which was to find a way to rescue Wanyan Xun. Although Wanyan Xun suffered a defeat this time, and it was a big defeat, Wanyan Jing was very angry, but he did not direct his anger at Wan Yan Xun. If he thought about it, even if Wan Yan Xiang was present at the time, he would probably suffer A big loss. Maybe Wan Yanxiang would be more alert than Wan Yan Xun, but under such circumstances, failure is inevitable, and the annihilation of the entire army becomes reasonable. This time Jamukha sent an envoy to Zhongdu to bring Wanyan Xun back. Of course, the conditions were quite harsh: 200,000 shi of grain, 500,000 jins of iron, 100,000 jins of salt, and 100,000 dans of tea. And there is no room for bargaining. If Wanyan Jing does not agree, there will only be one outcome. Wanyan Xun will be killed, and even the body will not be returned to the Kingdom of Jin, because Jamukha said that even if Wanyan Jing wants to take the body back, That must be carried out half according to the conditions of a living person. Iron, salt, and tea are okay. In the past two years, the Kingdom of Jin has been either flooded or droughted. Food is also very tight for the country. Where can I send the surplus food to Jamuka? What's more, Wanyan Jing is already preparing to send an army of 500,000 people into the grassland to directly capture Jamuka's capital. How could he give these things to him at such a critical moment? Seeing that Wanyan Jing disagreed, Jamuka¡¯s envoy turned around and left without saying a word. Since Wanyan Jing thought Wanyan Xun was not worth the price, let him regret it. Seeing that Jamukha¡¯s envoy left, Wanyanjing was filled with grief and anger. She was the master of gold, when would it be her turn to be humiliated by a tribe on the grassland? As soon as Jamuka¡¯s special envoy left, the entire Jin Kingdom immediately entered a state of emergency, and troops and grain from various state capitals began to gather in the capital. Various departments in the imperial court also became extremely busy, going all out to support Wan Yanxiang's expedition. The Privy Council, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Works all focused their energy on the expedition.?Coming. The Jin Kingdom mobilized its troops and generals with great fanfare. It could be concealed from others, but it was definitely not possible to conceal it from Han Zhongwei. As Wanyan Jing agreed to send 500,000 troops to attack Jamuka, Han Zhongwei's attention turned to the Kingdom of Jin. Every day he asked Ding Chuan to compile all the information about the Kingdom of Jin to him, and he had to review all the information personally. . "Ding Chuan, have you notified Zhao Shijie?" Han Zhongwei saw that the Jin Kingdom was busy preparing various material and military matters, and knew that Wanyan Jing finally couldn't sit still. The loyalty of the Klie Department gave him a lot of confidence , plus Wan Yanxiang personally commanded the army, with an army of 500,000, I am afraid that the total army of the Mongol Khanate is less than 500,000, right? "Battle Commander Zhao was notified as early as ten days ago. I believe Jamuka should also know the news." Ding Chuan chuckled. The Jin Kingdom was fighting Mongolia. Although he had to pay close attention at all times, after all, it was not the guards and the Mongolians. The Kingdom of Jin was at war, so Ding Chuan felt much less pressure than before. "Jamuka won't panic, right?" Han Zhongwei didn't know what kind of initiative Jamuka would take after hearing that 500,000 gold soldiers were coming to attack his capital. "No, on the contrary, he is sharpening his sword and preparing to defeat the Jin soldiers under his capital again." Ding Chuan said with a smile. Although the secret of the tunnel was not kept last time, the secret of the entrance of the tunnel was kept. This is One of Jamuka's secret weapons is that he can defend the city wall in the city. Although the Jin Kingdom has an army of 500,000, he can still easily defend it as long as he does not take the initiative to leave the city. What's more, in the field, who in the world can be the opponent of the Mongolian cavalry? Perhaps except for the escort army, Jamuka would not take any other army seriously. "That's good. As long as the Jin Kingdom's 500,000 troops stay on the grassland, the Jin Kingdom will really be on the verge of collapse." Han Zhongwei looked in the direction of Zhongdu and murmured to himself.
