Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 194: Cannibalizing the Song Dynasty, twenty cities are exempted from massacre
"It's the Great Khan! When the time comes, I will notify the Tubo landowners and chieftains to come and see you." Zhang Yong said.

After hearing this, Zhang Yong immediately understood what the Khan wanted to do, but Zhang Yong still chose to pretend to be confused.

Genghis Khan obviously hoped that he could continue to attack Tubo and expand his territory, but he would have to wait until his wings were full before attacking Tubo again, otherwise the results would not belong to him.

Therefore, Zhang Yong said a very tactful word.

But it was obvious that Genghis Khan did not intend to let Zhang Yong go and said. :
"Zhang Yong! I like to speak directly and don't like to beat around the bush. Since you don't understand, I'll tell you again.

Since you have taken root in the land of Xixia and want to gain the land of Guanzhong in the future, you must continue to attack and encroach on the enemy's land for me.

The land of the Jin people, the land of the Song people, and the land of the Tubo people, I want to gradually encroach on them and make them all belong to me, Genghis Khan. "

Didn't you, kid, not hear clearly? Then let me tell you, this is how we Mongolians behave. I want their land and everything they have!
"Yes! Dahan! But Zhang Yong is very weak now. These things may take some time." Zhang Yong said.

"It doesn't matter, I can understand this. It took Muhuali more than ten years to encroach on the Jin Kingdom after receiving my order. Even so, he only obtained the northern territory of the Jin Kingdom.

So I give you enough time, but don't forget my order. What I want is not for you to live in harmony with them, but for them to surrender.

Your main opponent is the Song Dynasty. For the Jin Kingdom, you only need to attack Tongguan. In the north there are Bolu and those Han princes. On the grassland, I will personally lead the army. When the time comes, I hope to attack from three directions. Golden State. "Genghis Khan nodded and said.

This kid is very naughty, I have to give him a beating. At that time, there were not many troops in Muhua, so they all surrendered the locals. Since the other party can do it, you Zhang Yong must also be able to do it.

I can give you this throne, but if you want to be the king under me, you are not a freeloader. If you want land, go and get it for me.

It's yours to beat down, and then you pay my taxes.

In fact, he likes Emperor Zhou's method of making you the king of a place, but you need to conquer the territory yourself.

This guy's main opponent is the Song Dynasty. The Jin Kingdom will help him fight, as for Tubo.

hehe! Genghis Khan in this country didn't take him seriously at all.

"I understand, Great Khan, I will gradually encroach on Tubo, the Jin Kingdom, and the Song Dynasty for you." Zhang Yong said.

Is there any mistake? The order Mu Huali received back then was just to cannibalize a Jin country. When you come to me, you directly ask me to cannibalize Tubo and Jin country.

Although it is already sunset in the Kingdom of Jin, the skinny camel is bigger than the horse.

The strength of the Jin Kingdom is not comparable to that of Xixia and Tubo. It can only encroach as far as Tongguan. It is impossible to defeat Tongguan, and it even has to allocate a lot of troops to defend.

Fortunately, Jin Guo does not want me to deal with it alone.

As for the Southern Song Dynasty, the best place to encroach is the land of Sichuan and Shu, and then follow the land of Sichuan and Shu directly to Dali and Yunnan, and directly besiege the Song Dynasty from all aspects.

I am afraid that he will become the main opponent of the Song Dynasty in the future. Zhang Yong is still a little sure of how to conquer the Song Dynasty.

Why did the Song Dynasty persist under the iron heel of Mongolia for so many years? There are several main reasons. First, the Song Dynasty itself was indeed not weak, and the city walls everywhere were very thick and solid.

Secondly, Mongolia never attacked the Song Dynasty with all its strength. Even when launching the eldest son's Western Expedition, it also mobilized [-] troops to attack the Southern Song Dynasty. Later, due to the unexpected death of various great Khans, there was an internal struggle for power. The two queens were in power for as long as It took more than eight years, until the time of Kublai Khan, to concentrate on attacking the Song Dynasty.

As long as they can obtain the Guanzhong area, Sichuan-Sichuan area, and Yunnan area, the Han people in the north will probably automatically come to their side, and then they will use cannons to blast the city walls of the Song Dynasty.

As long as one or two fortified cities were conquered, the Song Dynasty would basically surrender some subsequent cities. This was an old tradition of the Southern Song Dynasty.

As for the Tubo people, who are the easiest to deal with, Zhang Yong already has a complete strategy. Putting these herdsmen to graze near Qinghai Lake is not just about letting them graze.

They will gradually adapt to the climate and environment here, and when the time comes, combined with the anti-altitude sickness medicine they provide, these people alone can conquer Tibet.

But the prerequisite for all this is to have enough troops and logistical support. Otherwise, everything is empty talk.

"Well! That's right, this is the bloodline of our Golden Family.

Remember, we are born conquerors and we want to conquer others. Never forget this sentence. "Genghis Khan said.

"It's sweat!" Zhang Yong nodded and said.

"It's good that you know! Okay, you go down and rest! I'm tired too. Let's have a good rest here today. Tomorrow we will set off back to your Xiliang Mansion." Genghis Khan said.

Zhang Yong nodded, stood up and left.

What Genghis Khan said today put a lot of pressure on him, but it also gave him a lot of motivation, sweat it out! Khan, but you let me gradually encroach on the Song Dynasty.

Then I will definitely follow your order and erode the Song Dynasty fiercely.

"Wo Kuotai, do you think the task I assigned to this boy is a bit heavy?" After Zhang Yong left, Genghis Khan looked at his son and asked.

The reason why he said these words was that he had great expectations for Zhang Yong, and this boy also had very good military strategic talents. Let him be a civil servant. It's a shame to just focus on developing your own territory.

He should do something like Mu Huali, expand the territory and rule a country.

"Father! This task is not heavy at all. You have high expectations for him, which shows that you trust him. This boy should be grateful to you." Wo Kuotai said.

"Well! I hope this kid can understand my good intentions. After you inherit my throne, you will place the center of your rule on the grassland.

Then gradually expand to the east. As for the land in the east, conquer it if you can. If you can't, conquer it. Just like Mu Huali did back then, just eat away gradually. "Genghis Khan said.

This injury made Genghis Khan suddenly have a special feeling. He is now over 60 years old. Being able to live to be over 70 years old is already blessed by immortality.

At that time, if something unexpected happens to me, my ambitions will have to be realized by these descendants.

After the father and son chatted for a while, Wo Kuotai suddenly spoke.

"Father! I have something I want to tell you."

"Tell me what you have to say!" Genghis Khan said.

"Father Khan! This time we attacked Xixia, many people survived. The only cities that were massacred were Shazhou and Blackwater City. There are still a large number of people in Xixia. Rather than letting them stay here, it is better to let them go On the land of Xiliao." Wo Kuotai said.

There is no way, my territory is too short of population now. Xiliao is a vast place with few people. In addition, it has experienced various wars in the past few years, and its population is now about the same as that of Tubo.

Wokuotai didn't care much about these places before, but now Zhang Yong has discovered a large number of gold mines for him, as well as coal mines and salt mines. All kinds of minerals require manpower to mine!

Waiting for the native population of Xiliao to reproduce itself will only happen in 30 to [-] years. The day lilies were already cold, and he couldn't wait so long in Wo Kuotai.

"Do you want the people of Xixia?" Genghis Khan said.

"Yes! Father! I want at least 20 to 30 Xixia people to live in my territory.

These people live in my territory and can help me mine the various minerals discovered by Zhang Yong and increase the strength of our great Mongolia.

And you also know that there are no Mongolians living in the land of Xiliao at all. The herdsmen under my command only account for a small part. The Uighurs are the main population there.

If 30 Xixia people pass by, then a delicate balance can be formed to allow me to better rule Xiliao. "Wokuotai said.

This trick is a common trick of the Mongols. Every time they occupy an area, they will select some residents of another area to move there, so that it is easier to rule.

"Well! There are a lot of people in Xixia now, but most of them have been distributed by me to the Mongolian generals. The population that has not been distributed is only 10. I can't give you 30. If you want it, I will I’ll give you these 10 people!” Genghis Khan said.

After all, the remaining Xixia population has been entrusted to the Mongolian generals. Even if he is the Mongol Khan, he has no right to take it back.

Because this was a rule set by Genghis Khan. If he took it back, it would be a slap in the face, so he could only give it to 10 people.

"Thank you, Father Khan!" Wo Kuotai said. During this period of time, he was not idle about the mineral matter, but had been working hard, trying to find people.

The population of Xixia was something he had been staring at.

During the previous reward based on merit, he had already received some Xixia population rewards from Genghis Khan, but it was still not enough!
The father and son chatted for a few more words, and Genghis Khan asked Ogedai to leave.

After Wokuotai left Genghis Khan's room, he did not return to his own room, but came to Zhang Yong's room.

After getting [-] Xixia people from his father, Zhang Yong will have to figure out a solution for the next one.

This guy also has many Xixia people under his command. As for Chahan Wokuotai, he has no intention of looking for them. Because the other party is a Xixia Party member after all, and he must want to unite people of his own nation.

Even if he said it with shame, he would not agree. So why bother looking for boredom? Anyway, doesn’t my good son-in-law still have more than 20 Xixia people?
When I, the father-in-law, ask, you can’t refuse, right?

"Father-in-law! You are here, please take a seat." Zhang Yong welcomed Wo Kuotai in very enthusiastically.

What kind of wind is this today? It's blowing my father-in-law in.

"Wonderful son-in-law! I came here this time to ask for something from you." Wo Kuotai said.

Even his title has changed. He used to call himself Zhang Yong, but today he sounds like a virtuous son-in-law. He must be asking me for something, right?
"Father-in-law, please tell me something. As long as I can help you, I will definitely help you." Zhang Yong said.

"That's it. I hope that 30 Xixia people can live in my land of Xiliao.

Now Father Khan has promised to give me 10 people, and I hope you will find a way for the remaining 20 people. "Wokuotai said.

Well, does this mean that I dug a hole for myself and let myself jump into it?
Originally, Wokuotai did not need such a large population.

But because many minerals have been discovered in Xiliao, and these minerals were found by themselves, Wokuotai now needs manpower to mine them.

So is there a better option?
Xixia, which had just been wiped out by Mongolia, was a very good choice. The original population of Xixia was more than [-].

After experiencing massacres by the Mongolian army and various wars, it now has a population of more than 150 million, of which more than 20 are here and 70 million are with Chahan and his sons.

The rest is in the hands of the Mongol generals.

This cheap father-in-law has an idea for himself.

However, my own territory also needs development. Although these Xixia people are not as obedient as the Han people, they are still an indispensable labor force!

If you just want to leave everything, how do you want my territory to develop?
"Father-in-law! Do you think this is a good idea? Let my territory develop for a few years. After a few years, we will completely capture Guanzhong.

Accept some more refugees from the dry lands of the north, or plunder some people from the south.

How about living in my territory, and then handing over the Xixia people in my territory to my father-in-law? "Zhang Yong said.

Of course, it is not possible to refuse directly, so now I can only say this, when the number of Han people under my control increases, these Xixia people will not be important.

"I also know the difficulties you are facing, Xianxiang, and I won't take these people in vain. We will attack Lintao Mansion soon. After defeating it, our goal will not stop.

Jingzhao Mansion and Fengxiang Mansion are our targets. There will be a large number of Han people by then. I will give you none of these Han people. How about you leave these Xixia people to me? "Wokuotai said.

In fact, compared to the Xixia people, the Han people were more difficult to rule in Wo Kuotai's opinion. It seemed to him that it was very suitable to exchange these Han people for the Xixia labor force.

"Father-in-law! This!" To be honest, father-in-law, what you are writing is a blank check! Both of you, father and son, are very good at this trick!
This land was originally given to me by the Great Khan, and the people here will also be my people in the future. You use my people to trade with me.

"Many Han people in the north have shown their favor to me. The north has been experiencing war in recent years, and I will make the decision when the time comes.

Let all the disaster victims from the north come to live in your territory and replenish your population. "Wokuotai said.

This time, Genghis Khan summoned all the Mongolian and Han generals in the army and announced in public that Ogedai was his successor.

This caused many Han people to start siding with Wokuotai.

He kept fawning over Wokuotai. During the recent period in Xixia, especially during the hunting period, he was very prosperous.

As long as Wokuotai speaks, these northern Han princes will definitely agree to his request. After all, no one wants disaster victims like him to appear in their territory.

"Okay! Father-in-law, I agree to this, but I need you to promise me one thing. As long as you agree.

After we have completely conquered Guanzhong and you withdraw your troops, I will ask you to take away these more than 20 Xixia people. "Zhang Yong said.

"Hahaha! I knew you would promise me, no problem, I will take these people away when the time comes.

Take them to my fief to live, you say! What's your business? "Wokuotai said.

As long as these 20 Xixia people are handed over to him, not to mention one thing, but two or three things, he can agree, as long as it is not too difficult.

"Father-in-law! When we attack the Kingdom of Jin with all our strength, when you attack the Central Plains, I hope you will agree to my conditions for twenty cities." Zhang Yong said.

"You want twenty cities? That's not possible. I can't make the decision.

Moreover, 20 Xixia people cannot be exchanged for twenty cities. What are you thinking? Be realistic. "Wo Kuotai rolled his eyes and said.

I am short of people, but I am not taken advantage of!

You dare to ask for this condition, you brat, I'm so good to you, but you actually want to cheat me.

"Father-in-law, it's not what you think. I don't want twenty cities.

I want you to spare the lives of the people in twenty cities. I know the Mongolian fighting style.

If some small towns are unwilling to surrender, then you will massacre them.

I hope you will agree to give me the condition that the twenty cities will not be surrendered and the city will not be massacred.

When we attack the Central Plains, I will also recommend you as the commander-in-chief of the entire army.

All I want is that you don't kill the people in these twenty cities. "Zhang Yong said.

In the battle that completely destroyed the Jin Kingdom in Mongolia, the killings caused by Wo Kuotai's troops entering the Central Plains reached a shocking level, because this was the custom of the Mongolian army.

What Zhang Yong has to do is to reduce this kind of killing and exchange 20 Xixia people for the survival of people in twenty cities. For him, he will make a sure profit without losing any money.

Because these people will remember his goodness and his kindness, which will improve their reputation.

Wo Kuotai took a deep look at Zhang Yong and nodded.

"Okay! You made such an agreement with Chahan not long ago, and you helped him save several cities that were originally going to be destroyed.

If you make this agreement with me today, then I will also promise you.

But we have something to say first. There are only twenty cities. These twenty cities you choose can be exempted from massacre.

And you want to help me and make me the commander-in-chief of the attack on the Kingdom of Jin. "Wokuotai said.

"Father-in-law, we have made an agreement that I will definitely help you." Zhang Yong said.

No matter what, with today's appointment, I can save thousands of lives in the Central Plains.
