Chapter 353 The confident Wanhu

"Brother Hu..." Hassan held the wine bowl but hesitated.

In five years, with his trade monopoly, Hassan became extremely rich, and his tribe became a very important presence in Tubo.

However, the atmosphere has been tense recently, and Hassan has always been uneasy, especially after Hu Feng came, he visited important people in the tribe everywhere, but did not show up with him.

In fact, Hassan had already thought about Song Yuan's position after the war.

He became rich because of the Song Dynasty, but it was because he controlled the path of Tubo. If he left the Song Dynasty, he would only have nothing to lose. But if he betrayed Tubo and lost this market, he would also have nothing to lose.

tangled.

"You and I are half-brothers, so it's okay to speak out if you have anything to say." Hu Feng made a joke, not paying attention to the nearby soldiers at all.

Hongmen Banquet?
Ah!
"Okay!" Hassan put down the wine bowl and said, "Brother didn't bring any goods here, and he didn't communicate with me as a brother. He only wanted to collude with others. What do you mean?"

"What does colluding with others mean?" Hu Feng pretended to be surprised and said, "They are all my good friends. Isn't it right to visit them? Did my brother misunderstand something?"

"What could I have misunderstood?" Hassan asked slightly frantically, "Do you think the Song Dynasty is going to the plateau?"

"Yes." Hu Feng nodded and said: "At the beginning of the month, the Mongols succeeded in raiding Mengjin Pass, and the peace agreement was canceled in advance.

To be honest with you brother, I am the deputy director of the Imperial City Department, responsible for the management of Tubo. At most, on the first day of the new year, Yunnan will definitely send troops, and my brother is in charge. How to decide? "

"This..." Hassan's face was uncertain.

According to his idea, of course he would make a fortune by playing both ways throughout his life, but he also knew that this was impossible.

Song and Yuan have been fighting for so long, and sooner or later they will face life and death.

Now, a choice must be made.

"What did brother teach me?" Hassan asked.

"In the past few years, I'm afraid that my brother has saved more than one hundred thousand yuan, so he can move to Chengtian Mansion without losing his wealth..."

Hassan couldn't help but ask: "Where does Gui come from?"

"If my brother cooperates with Master Wang to capture Mangkang, he can be made a marquis!" Hu Feng said.

Hassan was lost in thought.

To the south of Mangkang is Yunnan, to the west is deep into the plateau, and to the east is Sichuan. This is the general distribution of the ancient tea-horse road. Mangkang is a transit point connecting Sichuan and Yunnan.

Because of its important geographical location, Yuanting established ten thousand households and stationed twenty thousand troops.

It doesn't seem like much, but considering that the Yunnan-Tibet Tea Horse Road runs along the Lancang River, with cliffs everywhere, 2 people are actually enough to defend it.

Hassan's tribe is at Wanhu Station in Mangkang, which is more than a hundred miles away from Xiaodandang (Deqin) and more than 350 miles away from Mangkang. There are more than a hundred military strongholds behind him. To be honest, he doesn't think the Song army can defeat it. .

Hu Feng saw Hassan's hesitation and said: "Brother, as long as you obey the arrangement, success or failure will depend on your wealth. If you don't cooperate, I'm afraid the wealth will not be there."

"You..." Hassan was angry. He just stood up, but found that the guards on his left and right were glaring at him, and he immediately calmed down.

Unknowingly, Hu Feng has become more charismatic than the leader of the tribe.

Not surprisingly, whoever makes everyone rich is the father. There may be thousands of Hassans in Tubo, but only one Hu Feng.

"Okay, let my brother arrange it." Hassan was convinced.

"Okay, those who know the current affairs are heroes, and the court will not treat you brothers badly!" Hu Feng decisively directed Hassan to do things.

Those who are determined to kill Yuan Ting and have ambiguous attitudes must be careful not to let the news leak out.

On the third day of the junior high school, the pioneer group of the Song Army arrived and immediately began to disguise.On the fifth day of the lunar new year, the vanguard group was already Hassan's caravan buddies. After the main force arrived and rested for a day, the caravan set off first and arrived at Heishi Village in half a day.

It is said to be a military village, but there are actually only five people there. However, the military village is located more than ten feet on the cliff. There is a natural cave. As long as stones are thrown on it, the road can be blocked very well.

Hassan stepped forward and rang the bell and called: "Brothers above, there is some wine this time, do you want it?"

"Yes!" A head poked out from above and shouted while hanging the rope: "Leader Hassan, the weather has been bad recently, why are you leading the team yourself?"

"I have a batch of good goods to offer." Hassan simply replied.

There is no doubt above.

If Hassan dared to eat alone, the skull would have been made into a wine glass. The reason why he was able to make it bigger was that he shared most of the profits.

Just like the military villages along the way, wine, meat, or gold and silver are always presented, and all aspects are taken care of very well.

After the rope was lowered, Hassan hung up the wine and meat supplies, motioned for the higher-ups to bring them back, and then left.

The leader was a Mongolian, and he was very careful. He let a Tibetan soldier drink a bowl, and only after finding that there was no problem did he invite everyone to drink together.

There was nothing wrong with the wine, but it was very strong. I drank it after two bowls.

Not long after Yuan Bing became drunk, more than a dozen people came from behind, eager to climb up the cliff.

The Yuan soldiers can go up, but there is no reason why the Song army cannot go up.

After a while, Song Bing saw five drunk Yuan soldiers and stabbed them all to death.

Not long after the body was dumped, a large group of people arrived.

Lin Guifang led the horse, and immediately there were two wooden boxes, which contained mortar parts, while behind him, Qin Bin led the horse, which carried gun barrels.

So Mangkang Xuanweisi allowed Hassan to collude with the Song State, of course it was to make a fortune, but in fact it was not worried about the Song Army's attack.

The road was rugged and narrow, and it was impossible to pass the artillery cart. Even two people could not walk side by side, so there was no way to transport the cannon.

Can a small cannon like the Crouching Tiger Cannon beat a big cannon?
Therefore, the other ministries had to wait until Sichuan came to fight before they could use mortars, because they were afraid that the Yuan army would be prepared after the news leaked out and lose its suddenness.

Under Hassan's passionate performance, the caravan arrived outside Mangkang City without any danger.

The city itself was flat, but it was surrounded by mountains. The Yuan army built a large number of forts on the hills, which could not only shield the city but also control the roads.

Here, conspiracies and tricks are basically useless, because the Yuan army is too scattered, and at most one or two places will be exposed.

Therefore, Hassan followed his usual practice and after offering money to thousands of Bulu slaves, he turned to the west, apparently heading to Qamdo.

The slaves of Bulu didn't notice the abnormality at all, but Xia Song, the manager of Mangkang, felt that something was wrong.

"If there is no news from the military camps at the front, we should send people to investigate." Xia Song said.

"It doesn't matter." The Bulu slave said confidently, "Even if Hassan betrays the country and helps the Song army to eradicate various military strongholds, Mangkang City will still be impregnable."

"It's better to confirm before you feel at ease." Xia Song thought for a while and sent a team of people out of the city.

But as soon as Tan Ma entered the mountain pass and turned a corner, he saw a dark crowd of people and horses stopping on the mountain road, and they were already surrounded.

"Kill~" The leader of Tanma shouted subconsciously, and then he heard a whoosh, and in an instant, the men and horses were shot into hedgehogs.

Lin Guifang ordered lightly, saying: "Take time to rest and launch an attack tonight. Tomorrow morning, I will rest in the city for a day."
