Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 507 The eldest son returns and the wind blows over the grassland

"You, tell me! Will your father like me? I, after all, I have been married before." A Luo said coquettishly in front of Zhang Yong's study door.

She is about to meet her father-in-law. This Miao woman seems a little restrained and has some grudges about her identity, even though the man in front of her is very kind to her and even loves her very much.

"Don't be afraid! Don't worry, my father and mother will not dislike you. Besides, you are still pregnant with a child!" Zhang Dingguan patted A Luo on the shoulder and said.

At this time, Ah Luo's belly had begun to swell slightly. After three months of hard work, how could he not gain anything?

A Luo pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and nodded to his husband. Fate can really play tricks on people sometimes!
He originally wanted to assassinate this man, even risking the lives of his family and all the people in Dali City, but he never thought that the man was his true destiny.

After several months of getting along, she had a different feeling.

"Okay, let's go, go in, you will be the woman of our family from now on, you are the second Hanerduo." Zhang Dingguan said.

This was what he had agreed with A Luo before. A Luo's family was still very powerful in the Dali area, otherwise he would not have married the son of the emperor of Dali.

The two paused at the door for a moment before pushing the door open and walking in. At this time, Zhang Yong and Tu Lanlun were looking at the two of them with smiles on their faces.

"The child pays homage to his father and his mother," Zhang Dingguan said before bowing to Zhang Yong and his mother.

"You're welcome, this is the new wife you're looking for, right? I have a good eye, and this girl is pretty." Zhang Yong nodded and said.

Women from Miao territory really have a unique flavor! This appearance is completely different from that of women from the Central Plains, grassland women and Western women.

I really didn’t expect that! His son actually has this hobby. Apart from the women he gave to him, he found almost all of them married women!
This was the case with Huchaduo, and now another Miao woman came, who turned out to be the daughter-in-law of the prince of Dali.

Are you inheriting Boss Cao’s legacy? You only pick other people’s wives to attack, right? He even killed his husband with his own hands.

wrong! wrong! This hobby should not be inherited from Boss Cao, but from his grandfather Genghis Khan. Who likes wives the most, it must be Genghis Khan!
In this regard, Boss Cao can't even catch up with him. Boss Cao can't even imagine how complicated Genghis Khan's tricks are.

Among all his children, this boy is the only one who has seen Genghis Khan, although he no longer remembers it.

"My, my name is A Luo! Meet the prince, meet the princess." A Luo bowed to Zhang Yong and Tu Lanlun slightly and said.

"Hahaha! Don't be restrained. I gave you this gold bracelet." Tu Lanlun took out a gold bracelet that had been prepared and put it on A Luo's hand.

It’s like recognizing the other party’s identity! Anyway, according to their Mongolian tradition, as long as a man can afford it, he can marry as many as he wants.

"Thank you, Princess!" A Luo took the gold bracelet in his hand and stayed with his new man these days.

She received a lot of gifts, including all kinds of gold jewelry, pearl necklaces, agates and jade. He couldn't even wear them himself, so he gave some to his little cousin, and then dragged his little cousin into the fire pit.

This little girl had tricked him once, so he had to come back, but in the end he got an advantage over Zhang Dingguan.

The gold bracelet Tulanlun was more important to her because it was a gift from the other party's mother. It has a special meaning. In name, I have officially joined the big family of King Guanzhong.

My Miao village will be safer in the future, because I am the wife of the eldest prince in Guanzhong, and so is my cousin.

"I heard that you still took in her cousin. Didn't you bring that little girl?" Zhang Yong asked.

"Replying to my father, this is true, but the little girl was a little shy and didn't dare to come, so I asked her to go back to the room directly." Zhang Dingguan said.

Although the little girl followed him, she was still quite coy, after all, she was too young.

"Hahaha! Then when she gets to know her better at home, you can bring her to meet me. But you can take your mother to meet that little girl. Your mother has prepared two gifts for the two sisters, one for each of them. , but the little girl didn’t come,” Zhang Yong said.

"It's okay! I'll go see the little girl myself." After Tu Lanlun finished speaking, he took A Luo's hand and left the room, leaving the father and son alone here.

"Okay, this guy went there this time and actually killed someone else's husband and robbed someone else's wife." Zhang Yong said.

"Father! I don't eat alone. I gave two of the women from the Miao strongholds, the third and fourth children, to each of them," Zhang Dingguan said.

Today, his father only summoned him alone, but didn't his two younger brothers still lose control?

Those Miao women are indeed very beautiful, especially their skin, which is smoother and more delicate than women from Sichuan, Sichuan and even Jiangnan.

"If you like it, just like it! I won't say anything if you accept it, but you have to correct some of your problems. You can't single out other people's wives." Zhang Yong said.

"Ahem! Father, my mother taught me since childhood. Grandpa Genghis Khan once said that the happiest thing in the world is to kill the enemy and then use the soft belly of their wives and daughters as a quilt.

Moreover, you also told me the story of Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period! "Zhang Dingguan said.

It was one thing for A Luo to be beautiful, but the identity of the other party, the young prince and princess of Dali Country, made him feel inexplicably excited.

Zhang Dingguan suspected that this excitement was due to the identity of his first woman, Hu Chaduo, who was once the wife of a certain Shandong overlord.

And although they are a couple in name only, neither his eldest wife nor his second wife has been touched by her husband. Even according to Mongolian tradition, it doesn't matter if they have been touched.

And, Father, how much better can you be?
When you were in Xizhen, you killed a prince and brought his wife back. There were even rumors that you had an unclear relationship with the Queen of Hungary.

Now you are telling me the other way around.

"Ahem! Okay, it doesn't matter if you like it. I won't say anything. Just pay more attention next time." Zhang Yong touched his nose and said.

There is no way in this regard, he seems to be really not qualified to educate his son, and there seem to be many other people's wives in his house.

Depend on! This hobby seems to be the same as my own!

"Let me ask you how the battle went this time? How did your two brothers perform?" Zhang Yong cleared his throat and asked.

"Father! The two brothers performed well. They were very brave in killing enemies on the battlefield, and they were also willing to ask other generals for advice.

As for the direction of the war, it can be said that it has been pushed all the way. We basically did not encounter any resistance. The army of Dali is really not very strong. "Zhang Dingguan said.

Dali’s army is not strong! Then you have to look at the people. If it is compared with the army of the Song Dynasty, compared with the army of the Jin Kingdom, compared with the army of the Mongolia, it is indeed not strong.

But compared with the armies of those Western nations, they are slightly stronger. However, these armies are really not good enough to face the Guanzhong army they have trained. No one is their opponent.

Our own Guanzhong army has strict requirements in terms of training and selection, and the overall quality of each soldier is superior to other countries.

And more importantly, Zhang Yong's army is not equipped with ordinary weapons! It is a new weapon that truly crushes this era, and the fighting method is also a completely new concept.

Modern war concepts, combined with muskets, heavy artillery, and large-scale cavalry units, in this era, no army can be its opponent. In the past, it was possible for an incompetent commander to exhaust all three armies.

But now even this possibility is gone. Every general in Guanzhong, from the lowest officers to the senior generals, even the generals from Hebei.

Zhang Yong asked them to carefully study the militia cadre training manual, as well as various modern war concepts.

The overall strength of his generals has also been raised. In this case, as long as there are no problems with the logistics supply line, it is basically impossible for Zhang Yong's army to be defeated. No matter what kind of opponent we face, there is only one result, which is that the enemy troops will be completely annihilated or defeated by our side.

This time, the invasion of the Southern Song Dynasty and the war to destroy the Dali Kingdom ended in only one year. It should have completely shocked the Mongolian grassland!

After all, many people, even most generals in Guanzhong, think this battle will last 3 to 4 years.

Including their own sons, they all thought so, but after the actual fight, they understood the importance of muskets and cannons. Hot weapons can completely crush cold weapons.

Now the infantry establishment of the Guanzhong army also has some sword and shield fighters, who are responsible for protecting the musketeers in the back row.

Zhang Yong has already planned to cancel some other infantry formations. As for the cavalry formations, whether they are light cavalry or heavy cavalry, they are still the trump card on this battlefield.

After all, mobility on the battlefield. The cavalry is still the king. Before there was such a thing as the automobile, the cavalry was always the big brother.

Even until World War II, there were still some cavalry establishments, but in the end, they withdrew from the stage of history.

But at this point in time, it is still too early for the cavalry to completely withdraw from the stage of history!

Now Zhang Yong has acquired several horse breeding lands, and because of the trade in grain, food, porcelain, etc., Zhang Yong also has as many war horses as he wants on the Mongolian grasslands.

The connection of Eastern and Western trade routes is the top priority.

"Father! I heard some things after my son came back. Many people seem to be persuading you to become emperor, right?" Zhang Dingguan asked.

"Well, you've also heard about this. Yes, it's true. What do you think? Do you want me, my father, to be the emperor?" Zhang Yong looked at his eldest son and asked.

This step is always coming. No matter what, Zhang Yong wants to gain the support of his entire family. There is no problem with his wife's side, including Tu Lanlun.

"Father, no matter what decision you make, I am willing to stand by your side. Even if you break with Mongolia, the Mongolian ethnic group of our Guanzhong army will stand by your side." Zhang Dingguan said.

"Hahaha! We won't break up. The relationship between me and your uncle Guyu is still very good. You should also know your uncle Guyu's wish. His bigger goal is to go to the West.

There is the Kipchak grassland where the land is more fertile and the pastures are lusher, so I will rule the east, but the words of the west will teach you Uncle Guyu.

He will always be the Great Khan of Mongolia from now on, and the position of Great Khan of Mongolia can only be born in the Ogedei family. "Zhang Yong said.

"Well! Father! So when Uncle Guyu goes to the Western Expedition, can my son go with him? I promised Uncle Guyu." Zhang Dingguan asked.

It is also his wish to go to the West for the Western Expedition. His two sworn brothers have already agreed to go with him to the Western Expedition.

Even some Han generals, such as Guo Kan and others, have promised to follow him, the great prince of Guanzhong, to participate in the Western Expedition.

"Hahaha! Okay! This is no problem. If you want to go, go ahead!" Zhang Yong said.

"Father, don't worry, I will not let you down, let alone your people. I will definitely defeat those Western countries." Zhang Dingguan said with a firm face.

"The combat effectiveness of those Western countries is actually very weak. You will know it when you see it. They have no tactics at all when fighting. They just rely on cavalry troops to launch a wave of charges. The army does not even have decent instructions. ." Zhang Yong said.

The current Western armies, no matter which country they belong to, have poor combat effectiveness and basically no decent tactics. The Middle Ages is definitely a dark era, especially for the West.

However, Guyu's goal in the Western Expedition should only be to annihilate Batu and completely defeat Batu's Golden Horde.

As for Western countries, if they want to attack, they still need some time to prepare.

The father and son chatted for a while, and Zhang Yong asked his son to go down, and then found his other two sons.

I asked them about their feelings during this war. What are their views on the war?
Zhang Yong was basically satisfied with the answers given by his two sons.

"Father, through this war, the third brother and I have learned a lot. You, the eldest brother, and the generals are right, war is not a trivial matter." The fourth child said.

"Father! I want to stay in the army and train." Zhang Dingjin, the third child, said.

"Very good, I'm very pleased that you can understand this. In the future, you can serve in the military camp, and for the time being, you can serve as a thousand households!" Zhang Yong said.

"Thank you, father!" the two boys knelt on the ground and said.

"Well! Your new daughters-in-law are those Miao women. Since they are married to others, you should be nice to them. By the way, take them to your mother's place to see them. From now on, they will become part of our family." Zhang Yong said.

"We know about the father, and we will take them to meet the mother and concubine later."

The father and son chatted for a while, and then Zhang Yong asked his two sons to leave.

In the next few days, Zhang Yong, in the name of the supreme commander of Guanzhong, rewarded the three armies and distributed rewards to the soldiers who participated in the expedition.

Ordinary officials should be promoted and rewarded. In this battle to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty, Shi Tianze, Liu Heima, Zhang Rou, Guo Kan and others all made great contributions. Zhang Yong naturally had no intention of being stingy and divided them all into The head of ten thousand households was granted the title of marquis.

In terms of civil servants, Tao Jie was also made a marquis by Zhang Yong, and the titles of all generals who participated in the war were promoted.

As for the Mongolian cavalry, Zhang Yong was divided into two more households, which were the first batch of Mongolian generals to follow him.

Now, the number of Mongolian herdsmen under Zhang Yong has reached an astonishing level. The grasslands near Qinghai and part of the grasslands in Xixia have been developed and utilized, and a large number of cattle, sheep, and horses have been bred.

In recent years, many Mongolian military households on the Mongolian grasslands have actually escaped privately and came to live in Zhang Yong's territory.

After all, Mongolian military households, especially ordinary civilians, would quickly become impoverished and even sell their wives and children as long as there was no war.

These are also some customs on the grasslands. Although some reforms were carried out during the era of Ogedai Khan, Mongolian soldiers still need to prepare their own horses and even dry food to go to the assembly point when fighting.

During the war, Mongolian soldiers did not have military pay. For various reasons, many Mongolian herdsmen on the grasslands often went bankrupt. (Mongolia here is just a national concept and has not yet formed a nation. Special explanation should be made.)
Many Mongolian herdsmen who went bankrupt either sold themselves to Mongolian nobles and became expatriates, or they had no choice but to flee south with their families.

The Mongolian herdsmen under Zhang Yong can be said to have the best life, so many fleeing Mongolian herders focused on this place and fled towards Zhang Yong's territory.

At this time, on the Mongolian grassland, it was also within the territory of the Fengqiyunjong Tuolei family, which had been fermenting for three months.

All the upper echelons of the Mongolian princes and nobles have confirmed one thing, that is, Zhang Yong, the king of Guanzhong, has completely destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty. The war will end far faster than they imagined.

"The strength of the Southern Song Dynasty was a bit too weak. It only took so long! It took less than a year! It was destroyed.

Even the army of the King of Guanzhong destroyed the Dali Kingdom by the way. "Meng Ge sighed and said.

He did not expect that the army of the Southern Song Dynasty would be defeated so quickly by the army of the King of Guanzhong and even be completely destroyed.

It even completely disrupted all the arrangements of the two brothers.
