Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

The powerful secret weapon of the Mongols is said to be like the roar of an evil dragon and the explosion of thunder from the sky, which can easily destroy tall city walls.

Even the tall walls of Constantinople could not last long in the face of this kind of weapon.

Dealing with some other small castles in the German region is no problem. It is estimated that these densely packed small castles can be easily disintegrated with only simple attacks.

This strategy seems very sophisticated, but it is completely unworkable against the current Mongols. The Mongols are not afraid of this small castle tactic.

"His Majesty the Great Shinra Emperor, you mean that this trick is completely useless. Then, how are we going to deal with the Mongols? In a field battle, we are no match for them! Even if we have more than 20 troops, it will be the same." Baldwin II said with a pale face.

If it is true what the emperor said, then the Mongols today are synonymous with invincibility. There is no hope for them to win at all!

Fifty thousand cavalry can only deal with the same number of Mongolian cavalry, and will even be at a disadvantage. The Mongols have many times won many battles with less.

As for the infantry, haha! The infantry were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of the cavalry.

Although I really don't want to admit it, the reality is so cruel. There is no hope of winning when infantry and Mongolian cavalry are duel. The Mongols will slaughter them inhumanely just like killing pigs and cattle.

"During this period of time, I will order all the lords in Germany, Bohemia, and Austria, no matter how big or small, to start strengthening their city walls and hoard enough food.

And began to build weapons for heavy armored infantry, huge shields, and iron spears. These are good things for infantry to deal with Mongolian cavalry, and they also need to produce a large number of bows and arrows. "After thinking for a moment, Frederick II, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, said.

The combat effectiveness of the Mongols is indeed incomparable to them, so if the cavalry cannot form an advantage over the Mongols, then you must start from other aspects. Heavy armored infantry is the only thing that can resist cavalry.

In particular, huge shields and spears can cause damage to the Mongolian army. Thousands of soldiers lined up in a solid square formation can effectively resist the cavalry.

As for the ordinary lords, let them build and strengthen their own small castles. If they can block the Mongols for a period of time, it is also good to delay the advance of the Mongolian army a little. At least they can win for themselves. Some strategic time.

After all, the Mongols came from afar, and they still had certain advantages in fighting on their own territory. The longer this war drags on, the better it is for them and the worse it is for the Mongols.

"I will send another messenger to communicate with Batu, the commander of the Mongolian Western Expedition, to see if we can buy some more time.

And I will also send an envoy to meet this Mongolian King John! According to their Eastern saying, it should be the King of Guanzhong. "Frederick II said.

Before removing the poison, he rejected his marriage request, which made Emperor Shinra very disappointed. His strategy of dividing the Mongols failed, but he did not intend to give up on dividing Mongolia or weakening Mongolia through diplomatic means. After all, this is what he is good at. s things.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, with all due respect, if it is Batu, the commander-in-chief of the Mongolian Western Expedition, then I have no objection, but the guy who calls himself King John will not and cannot do what you want. He His goal is to conquer, and he is even more stubborn than the Mongolian commander Batu." Baldwin II said.

"Hahaha! How do you know if you don't try? At least communicate with the other party first." Frederick II smiled and said.

Sending envoys to both sides, his goal was not that simple. It was also an invisible pressure. The conditions he offered to Batu could also be offered to the King of Guanzhong.

And based on some intelligence, he judged that Batu would establish a khanate here in the future, and the King of Guanzhong would return to his own territory in Mongolia, so there was basically no major conflict between the two.

There is even some possibility of cooperation, so not long ago he sent an envoy to meet the Mongolian King of Guanzhong. It is said that he has withdrawn his troops from the Bulgarian area.

I estimate that I will return to Pest, Hungary soon, and I hope to have a good chat with this audience then. If possible, it would be best to only deal with the Mongolian army.

Zhang Yong on the other side also returned to the Hungarian Royal City with tens of thousands of Mongolian troops. Of course, he also had his wife Eupracia and two twins.

Eupracia and Maria, two princesses from the Roman Empire and Byzantium, also met.

After meeting, the atmosphere between the two was relatively friendly, but Zhang Yong found that there was an obvious smell of gunpowder between the two women.

Of course, it was Queen Maria who targeted Eupracia, but Eupracia had no hostility towards the queen.

It even feels a little strange. Because he didn't know that his nominal husband was having an affair with the woman in front of him, his aunt.

Even this hostility is somewhat inexplicable.

At this time, Queen Maria was just forcing a smile, and she had already scolded Zhang Yong a hundred times in her heart. Although the relationship between the two could not be made public, to a certain extent, she already regarded Zhao Yong as her husband.

She even thought about becoming Zhang Yong's wife directly after she completely controls all the power in Hungary in the future.

But now, all her beautiful fantasies were shattered by the sudden appearance of her niece. Seeing her niece holding two children, Maria was so angry that her teeth itched.

You bastard, my stomach is not up yet, but there is your blood in it. I want to see how you deal with this child.

"Ahem! Okay, let's go in! You are all princesses of the Roman Empire after all." Zhang Yong coughed twice and entered the Hungarian Palace with the two women.

That night at the dinner table. Maria just suppressed laughter, but after eating halfway, she left with her child because she felt unwell.

"Is there something wrong with her? Where did I offend her? Why are you treating me so badly?" As soon as Queen Maria left, Eupracia's face immediately fell, she looked at Zhang Yong and asked.

Did you make a mistake? You just entered the Hungarian Royal City? She still respects this aunt very much and is polite to her, but for some reason, the other party always has a huge hostility towards her.

Even when he was talking, he was stimulating her intentionally or unintentionally.

"Ahem! This! It's more complicated to explain." Zhang Yong touched his nose and said.

The main reason was that I couldn't hold it back and asked her to stand against the wall, and then played a little game with the queen. As a result, one of them failed to do it right and someone died.

But this is also my own strategic plan. You cannot rule such a large country by yourself, and it is impossible for me to hand over Hungary to the son of Bela IV, so I can only reluctantly appear in person.

Zhang Yong explained the cause and effect to Eupracia in a very tactful way.

After hearing the explanation, Eupracia's eyes suddenly widened, her mouth opened, and she looked at Zhang Yong in disbelief.

"It's really you! You bastard, you, you are too bad. Why is she so hostile to me?"

If it were a Western man, she would have to get angry and furious, but who said this man came from Eastern Mongolia? Polygamy seems to be popular there.

Don't think that he would only have one woman in the West, but he didn't expect that the one who broke into his back door was his aunt!

It’s so unpredictable! But she can also understand this. When a woman is in such a situation where her country is ruined and her family is ruined, if a man really lends a helping hand, then she will agree.

"This is also to facilitate the rule of the Hungarian region. Don't worry, half of the land in Hungary and half of the land in the Bulgarian Empire belong to our children." Zhang Yong said.

"But if she wants to rule Hungary, then she can only be the widow of Queen Bela IV of Hungary, so her and Bela IV's children will also be a great contribution to Hungary in the future." Eupracia ate A piece of beef on the dinner plate looked at Zhang Yong and asked.

She finally understood her man's intention, which was to annex and divide Hungary, but this was something she was happy to see because the beneficiary was her son.

"How could I let an enemy's child inherit this kingdom, even half of it? Let me tell you a secret, she is pregnant, not long ago." Zhang Yong said. "What do you mean? Oh my god! You really dare to think and do it, if she gives birth to a child.

Judging from the time, it can be said that he is Béla IV, and he will indeed have the opportunity to inherit the throne of Hungary in the future. " Eupracia said.

"It's just temporary. When this child becomes an adult, he will be my son both externally and internally." Zhang Yong said.

How is it possible for his son to recognize a dead man as his father?

It's just that I still need to appease the people in Hungary.

Moreover, the appearance of Eastern people is inevitably vulgar. After the child is born, the characteristics of mixed Eastern and Western blood will be very obvious.

And now some of the palace guards, maids, and servants in the palace already know that they have a relationship with the queen.

This child will know who his father is when he is very young, and even many Hungarian nobles named Zhang Yong will know, but no one will tell nonsense.

"Okay, what about her eldest son? Do you plan to kill his eldest son?" The gossip fire in Eupracia's heart was burning, and she looked at Zhang Yong and asked.

If you kill a woman's son, she will fight you tooth and nail. Your husband probably doesn't know this.

"When the time comes, just give her eldest son the position of a marquis, or the position of an ordinary nobleman. She has to agree if she agrees, or agree if she doesn't." Zhang Yong said.

Of course, the highest probability is that he will not grow up at all. This child will die young in history. He just needs to wait a while.

If he had not died young, Zhang Yong would have arranged for someone to find a way to kill him, but Maria would never know about this.

"Hmph! My dear, let's go back to the room and sleep! I'm tired from the journey, and I want to rest early." Eupracia put down the tableware very gracefully, wiped her lips, and said.

Although she had just given birth a few months ago, she was still a teenager and as beautiful as a flower. Could she still be afraid of an old woman?

"Ahem! How about you sleep alone tonight, and I'll go stay with Maria first."

"Hmph! If you go, he will want more things, and even want more rights. I advise you not to do this. Just go and coax her tomorrow. You need to let her straighten herself out. Position, she is your lover, and I am the legal wife." Eupracia said.

is not that right? After regaining Constantinople, Zhang Yong held a Western-style wedding with him at his strong request.

She also accepted the bishop's blessing. She had no control over the East or anything like that, but she was the head wife in the West.

Zhang Yong thought for a while and agreed with Eupracia's statement. After all, it was Maria who was showing off today. A woman cannot spoil her. Once she spoils her, she will get into trouble with her.

She must be allowed to put herself in the right position.

"Let's go! Let's go back to the room and rest." Zhang Yong took Eupracia's hand and walked to his bedroom.

Queen Maria came to her eldest son's room for the rare occasion today, hugging her four-year-old son and sleeping soundly. Her idea was that even if Zhang Yong came over tonight, she would not accompany him.

However, she still asked her maid to pay attention to see if Zhang Yong would go to her room today, but the news she received made her extremely disappointed.

But the next day, Zhang Yong immediately came to Maria's room, and then forced the other party to play a battle game. The strange centaur knight appeared on the wall again.

A few days later, an envoy from the Holy Roman Empire came to the royal city of Pest, Hungary.

"Dear King Guanzhong of Mongolia, on the orders of the Holy Roman Emperor, I am here to say hello to you and express my most sincere blessings to you." After the envoy entered the palace, he saluted Zhang Yong and said.

"Emperor Frederick II of the Holy Roman Empire sent you here?" Zhang Yong sat on the throne and asked with a playful look on his face.

The messenger actually said the words "King of Guanzhong" in Chinese, which surprised Zhang Yong a little. The emperor of the Holy Roman Empire did his homework quite well.

On his left, Queen Maria was sitting holding her young child, who was, after all, the nominal king of Hungary, and on his right sat Eupracia.

"Yes, the respected King of Mongolia Guanzhong."

"Why don't you call me King John? This is my identity in the West, and King Guanzhong is just my identity in the East." Zhang Yong said.

“First of all, you are not the ruler of the Elder Kingdom, but the legendary King John is the ruler of the Elder Kingdom, and above you there is the Great Khan of Mongolia.

If you say you are the Great Khan of the Mongols, then I will call you King John, but are you the Great Khan of the Mongols? "The messenger smiled and asked.

Hearing this, Zhang Yong's expression immediately changed. Good guy, this is a decision for himself.

If I admit that I am King John, then I will admit that I am the Great Khan of Mongolia!
This emperor of the Holy Roman Empire is much more scheming than a certain pope!
But political power comes from the barrel of a gun. When I am stronger than you, whatever I say will be what I say.

"Tell me why you came! Did your emperor send you to surrender to me?

If he wants to surrender, he must abide by Mongolian rules. "Zhang Yong said.

"I'm sorry, King Guanzhong, our emperor does not intend to surrender to you, but proposes a peaceful solution to you.

We, the Holy Roman Empire, can form an alliance with you, Mongolia, and you will not stay in the West for long in the future.

After you leave, our Holy Roman Empire can establish good relations with the countries established by your descendants. We can even have marriage alliances in the future, and your newborn daughter can marry the younger son of the Roman emperor. "The messenger said.

Good guy, this emperor of the Holy Roman Empire played well, failed to marry Batu, and now he likes himself again.

Is it just to try every means to split the Mongolian army? But this time you have thought too much. Now Batu and I both want to destroy you.

"There is no need to talk about this matter anymore. There is only one condition for our peace talks, and that is for your Holy Roman Empire to surrender to Mongolia. If you don't add this condition, there is no need to talk." Zhang Yong waved his hand and said.

"Well, King Guanzhong, it seems that my trip this time will be in vain. I wonder if you have a reply and want me to bring it to our noble Majesty? If so, please write it down." The messenger said. asked.

"I will write a letter to the Holy Roman Emperor. By the way, there is one more thing. Our Mongolian clan king, the eldest son of the Mongolian Khan Guyu.

I will marry the Queen of Jerusalem soon. I hope you can inform the Holy Roman Emperor about this.

Let him prepare a suitable gift, and I would be very happy if he could attend the wedding in person. Zhang Yong smiled and said.

If you send a messenger to disgust me, then I have to give you a gift in return, right?
Wasn’t your youngest son the king of Jerusalem? Then I will bring out the Queen of Jerusalem now.

"What do you mean? His Majesty the King of Guanzhong, there is no living queen in Jerusalem. The Queen of Jerusalem of the previous generation married our Emperor Frederick II, but she has been dead for many years." The envoy's face changed. He spoke. (End of chapter)
