Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 1478 Three Questions from Chucai
"Okay, then we will march west!" Temujin clapped his big hands and said, "Murong Ke, lead the [-] prairie boys to prepare for the expedition immediately, Kublai Khan, Tuotuo, Mahamu, Menglik, Batu, Chonglou, Sha Tushe, Chilian Tuo, Boyantu, and Nalian Disc Baohua came under your tent to listen to orders!"

"The last general takes orders!" Murong Ke said happily in his heart.

With the accumulation of military exploits over the years, Murong Ke's status in the Yuan Dynasty has also become higher and higher, and he has caught up with or even surpassed Mu Huali, Gai Suwen and others who Temujin relied on at the beginning.

Especially the Nurhachi incident made Murong Ke's status rise again.After all, it was during the battle with Murong Ke that Nurha was shot naked with cold arrows.

"Your Majesty, I have a warning!" At this moment, another voice spoke.

"Prime Minister, please tell me!" Although he came from Xi Xianbei and was also a relative of Yelu Abaoji, Temujin never doubted his employment, and he still maintained a high degree of trust in Yelu Chucai, even in the short term. In a short period of time, he was promoted to the position of prime minister.

As a rare god-level talent among Temujin's forces, even though Yelu Chucai came from Xi Xianbei, like the Murong brothers, he was at home with Temujin.

If the Murong brothers were the leaders of the Murong family who came to Temujin after their failure, then Yelu Chucai was the leader of the Yelu family who took refuge with Temujin after their failure.

Yelu Chucai is the last Khitan celebrity, and he is a typical representative of the Sinicization of Chinese nomadic peoples.

The Mongolian iron cavalry was invincible, but its post-victory rule fully exposed its backwardness.As a result, a conflict between "Huhua" and "Sinicization" emerged in the Central Plains. In this conflict, the danger of historical regression has already begun.

With his wisdom and ability, Yelu Chucai guided the rulers to see the superiority of Han civilization, established etiquette and taxation systems that the Mongolian Empire did not have, gradually disappeared the backward enfeoffment system and tribal alliance management system of Mongolia, and made Mongolia's naive The legal system can develop and grow.He contributed a lot to the entrepreneurship in the transition from Mongolia to Yuan Dynasty.

He received a good education in Yanjing since he was a child, and was influenced by Confucian culture. Not only that, he also "extensively read a lot of books, bypassing astronomy, geography, legal calendar, magic numbers, and interpretation of old doctors and divination. Wen, written by Ruosu".

During Genghis Khan's expedition to the west, Yelu Chucai often knew the way of conquering, governing the country, and calming the people. He made outstanding achievements repeatedly and was highly regarded.Following Genghis Khan's conquest of Xixia, he also admonished state and county officials to conscript and kill without authorization, so as to restrain the wind of greed and violence.

After Okuotai Khan came to the throne, Yelu Chucai advocated the establishment of court rituals and persuaded Prince Chagatai and others to respect the power of the Khan.Since then, he has been increasingly reused and known as "the minister of the country".

Since then, he actively restored the rule of culture, and gradually implemented the plan of "ruling the country with Confucianism" and "establishing the system, discussing rites and music, establishing ancestral temples, building palaces, creating schools, setting up imperial examinations, pulling out hermits, visiting old people, promoting virtuous people, seeking founders, and persuading The political views of farming and mulberry, suppressing leisure and idleness, saving punishment, thinning taxes, advocating fame and integrity, denouncing vertical and horizontal, eliminating redundant staff, deposing cruel officials, advocating filial piety and fraternity, and helping the poor.In all aspects of politics, economy and culture, he has made great efforts and made many pioneering works.

Yelu Chucai was not only a talent for governing the country, but also a cultural scholar. He laid the foundation for Mongolian cultural rule.

In terms of astronomy, he formulated the "Xizheng Gengwu Yuan Calendar" and discovered the "li difference" brought about by geographical distance; in terms of divination, he wrote "Jade Key" and "Inserting Mud Sword"; Zheng, broadened the horizons, his poems are vigorous and bold, with a broad realm and desolate sentiment; in terms of geography, he wrote "Journey to the West", which recorded what he saw and heard about the Western Regions; he was also quite accomplished in calligraphy, "like cast iron Cheng, fortitude, never fades.”

Yelu Chucai flourished culturally and recruited a large number of Han talents, such as Yang Huan, Zhang Wenqian, Zhao Liangbi, Dong Wenyong, etc. They were later reused by Kublai Khan and promoted the transformation of the Mongolian Khanate into the Yuan Dynasty.

Wang Shizhen subtly commented: "Chu Cai tamed the tiger and tamed it, so that he could not exhaust his blood and teeth in China, and he could kill Li Kong with his death. His benevolence covers the world."

Sun Chengen said from a higher perspective: "Use Xia to change barbarians, assist benevolence to win and kill. Crack the gaps in chemical industry, cleanse the sun and the moon. Establish the monarchy, and improve the people's livelihood. The merits of the benevolent are as good as Beijing."

Due to Yelu Chucai's outstanding achievements, many scholars called him the No. 1 Prime Minister of the Yuan Dynasty, and he was ranked alongside Xiao, Cao, Fang, and Du.

"Your Majesty thinks that Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other countries are enemies of the Jin army?" Yelu Chucai said boldly.

Although the Western Xianbei had perished, at least the Yelu clan did not end there. The Yelu clan probably divided into four groups and developed independently.Of course, with the demise of Yelu Dashi, there are only three shares left now.

"Jin army, the great enemy!" Although Temujin didn't answer this question directly, but in just five words, he has already given the answer to this question!Obviously, although Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other countries are not comparable to the 36 small countries in the Western Regions, Temujin does not think that they are qualified to be the opponents of the Jin army!
"Your Majesty thinks that if I, Dayuan, make a move at this time, Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other allied forces will regard my Dayuan as an enemy or as a friend?" Yelu Chucai asked again.

The words have already been said for this sake, and many people including Temujin there have actually vaguely understood what Yelu Chucai wanted to say!

"For the enemy!" Temujin said concisely, and at the same time began to think silently.

From the perspective of Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other countries, it is likely that not only the Jin army, but also their soldiers and horses from the Yuan Dynasty will be regarded as enemies by them.At that time, it will inevitably be a situation of melee between the three parties.

"That being the case, if Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other national coalition forces lose to the Jin army, what should we do if Dayuan makes a move?" Yelu Chucai asked again.

"So that's how I got prime minister alone, so why worry about the unevenness of the grassland and the unevenness of the world!" Temujin praised without hesitation.

If Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other national coalition forces fall into a disadvantage in the confrontation with the Jin army, after they realize that their strength is not as good as the Jin army, at this time their Dayuan can be the savior Provide assistance to the coalition forces of Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other countries, and rely on the strength of these people to jointly defeat the Jin army.

After defeating the Jin army, if you turn your guns to deal with Wusun, Kangju, Dawan and other countries, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort.In this way, just like how Su Lie dealt with Yelu Dashi back then, he borrowed someone else's hand to help him get rid of the enemy, and then got rid of that enemy's hand together!
