Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 519 Zhang Yong supervises the country and builds a new capital

Who could have imagined this? The Mongol Khan could be so willful that he went on a western expedition just as he said, and even took away the eldest prince and 20,000 Mongol troops.

Moreover, we made it clear that we didn’t want the King of Guanzhong to know about this, so it was almost a month after the army set off before the news reached the ears of the King of Guanzhong. By this time, the army should have gone far away.

This was very incomprehensible in the eyes of their Han generals. To launch an expedition of such a huge scale, you have to be prepared after all! This means leaving immediately.

Fortunately, the heavy armored cavalry of the Han Army were released. Otherwise, many soldiers would not be able to bear it if they were taken to the Western Expedition. It is okay to let them leave home for a few months or even a year, or even two years, but May or Six Years or even longer, that won’t work.

"Oh! How can I not be angry?" Zhang Yong sat on the chair and sighed helplessly.

This was so outrageous that Guyu never considered whether he could bear it or not. All he could think about was how to deal with Batu and destroy Kublai Khan.

But your health is already in bad condition. During the previous Western Expedition, it was because I stayed with you and took good care of your body. As a result, after I returned to the Central Plains, you staying on the Mongolian grasslands would be a suicide attempt.

In Zhang Yong's opinion, what Guiyou has done over the years is just seeking death, even more egregious than his father Wo Kuotai.

You bastard boy's body is not as good as your father's good job! In places like the Mongolian grasslands, once the body collapses, it is a dead end.

In fact, even if Guyou didn't say anything, Zhang Yong planned to launch a western expedition and would let his sons participate in it to give him a good training. It was not that he was worried about his son going out to fight.

Their genes are still quite excellent and powerful. The genes from modern people can allow them to survive in many places and basically not get sick. But people of this era are different.

Therefore, Zhang Yong is not worried about his son's current situation at all. This boy has gone out to train for a few years, and it is even for his own good. What Zhang Yong is really worried about is Guyu.

This boy's health was in extremely bad shape, and he had also read the letter sent back by his son.

Zhang Dingguan stated in the letter that Guiyou's health has been very poor recently, and his face has even turned pale. He drinks alcohol with every meal, and his body starts to tremble if he doesn't drink for a day. Zhang Yong knows very well what symptoms this is.

This kid has become an alcoholic, and his body's various functions are declining. If he can live in this situation honestly on the grassland, he can find two top Chinese medicine doctors to deal with it.

If you treat yourself with traditional Chinese medicine for a period of time and stop drinking and sex, it will be okay. If you can get your body back in order, then there will be no problem when you return to the West.

But the problem now is that this kid's body has completely collapsed. Under such circumstances, going to the Western Expedition would mean death. Zhang Yong was 100% certain that Guyu, the boy, would die in this Western Expedition.

The kind of person who is dead and has no life, Guiyou! As a brother, I have tried my best to help you, but you just don’t listen to my advice or my words. The supplements I gave you are for you to take good care of your body after eating them, not for you to aphrodisiac. Wine is for drinking.

"Your Majesty! Otherwise, why don't you issue a withdrawal edict immediately? I will take your withdrawal edict to recruit the eldest prince back. With your relationship with the Mongolian Khan, the Mongolian Khan Guyou should not Refuse." Guo Kan knelt on the ground and said.

He could also understand Zhang Yong's irritable mood. After all, his son was taken away, and Yuan Zheng was still the son he valued most. No one else would be in a good mood.

"That's not the case. What I'm worried about is not the customs! Even if nothing happens, I will personally let him go to the Western Expedition in a few years. Then you will also participate, but not now. Now is really not a good time. "Zhang Yong said.

Today, the situation in the south has just stabilized. The Central Plains has also begun to restore productivity, and the strength of the Han people is growing, but the situation is still unclear!

However, before leaving, Guyu also gave himself great power and was formally appointed by Zhang Yong to act as regent.

Originally, if the Mongol Khan went on an expedition, the responsibility of supervising the country should fall on his queen. However, Guyu's queen was lost in the sea and could not rule the huge Mongolian grassland at all, so Zhang Yong had to worry about it.

Now, the entire Mongolian grassland has received orders from the Great Khan. During the Great Khan's Western Expedition, all Mongolian nobles must obey the orders of Zhang Yong, the supervisor of the country.

"Your Majesty! What do you want to do now?" Guo Kan asked.

He thought that his prince was worried about his eldest son, but he didn't expect that his prince was actually worried about the Mongol Khan.

"We'll wait and see what happens, but you guys are here immediately. Heavy troops have been gathered in the northern part of the Mongolian grassland in Mobei, especially near Dadu. Soon, a storm will come." Zhang Yong said.

This time, Zhang Yong had a premonition that Guyu would die there, on the way to the Western Expedition just like in the original history.

Therefore, you must be prepared in advance. Mongolia's shouting of death is no joke. A new round of Khan elections is about to begin. And this time.

The most troublesome thing is that Guiyu's children are all too young, and Wo Kuotai's other sons have died of illness and disability in the past few years. Now they are basically withered.

Even if Zhang Yong wanted to support a son of Guyu to take office, there was no suitable candidate.

There is no one who can hold the place. On the contrary, if the Chagatai family and even Batu died after Guyu's death, then the chance would be the greatest.

He is most likely to ascend to the position of Great Khan of Mongolia, and Zhang Yong cannot guarantee what the attitude between a new Great Khan of Mongolia and himself will be.

Now that Guiyou is setting out for the Western Expedition, he doesn't know when he will die of illness and then the news will be sent back to the grassland. It should take half a year or at most a year.

I will start making preparations in advance now. When the time comes, I will go directly to the Mongolian grassland and compete for the position of the Great Khan of Mongolia.

That's right, this time, Zhang Yong doesn't plan to support anyone else. Huang Taiji back then could hold the title of Great Khan of Mongolia and Emperor of the Central Plains. Why can't I?
What's more, I am also a member of the Golden Family recognized by Genghis Khan personally. Members of the Golden Family theoretically have the right to inherit the Mongolian Khan.

Zhang Yong's reputation in the Mongolian grasslands is also very strong. If he really wants to compete for the position of the Great Khan of Mongolia, there is really no one who can be his opponent.

In the future, Zhang Yong can entrust the land near the west to Guyu's son. Zhang Yong will never be stingy if he follows his own people.

"Your Majesty! You want to station troops in the Hebei area. Do you want to conquer the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom?"

"Your Majesty's place is a barren land, very poor, and it's freezing and snowy where you can't grow anything. There are only a few months in summer and spring each month, and the remaining 7 to 8 months are winter."

"The winter there is very long, but the land is very fertile. It is the best black soil. Moreover, the few months of spring and summer do not mean that nothing can be grown. What that land lacks is suitable developers." Zhang Yong said.

is not that right? Before crossing over by myself. 100 years ago, was the land in Northeast China a bitter and cold land? That is to say, the group of Shandong ancestors who broke into Guandong made the land in the Northeast rich.

The Han people are naturally good at farming. Farming is their second priority. No one dares to take first place. During the Western Expedition, didn't the Rus' land still produce crops?
And it was a group of prisoners. That being the case. Zhang Yong plans to launch a large-scale movement into Guandong. Anyone who is willing to go there to open up wasteland and cultivate land will be given generous rewards.

Once people in the Central Plains region live a prosperous life, they will have more children. If the family property and land of these children are not enough, many of them will choose to go to Guandong.

"Those lands! Now they belong to Hulagu. Is this really okay?"

"You don't need to worry about this. I will write a letter to Hulagu and give him part of Meng Ge's land before, and ask him to give up the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom." Zhang Yong said.

The land in Mobei Mongolia would be even more precious to Hulagu. Kublai Khan had also been managing the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom for many years.

"Yes! Your Majesty's subordinates know it. Once the arrangements for the man's affairs are completed, we will begin to send additional troops to the Hebei area." Guo Kan said. "Well! You go and send a letter to Brother Alibu and Hulagu, asking them to go to Daxing Mansion in Jinzhongdu. Will I go there to meet him soon?" Zhang Yong said.

It is also time to build this place that is most suitable for the capital. This time, Zhang Yong plans to move millions of people there, and Daxing Mansion is the most suitable central capital.

Soon, Guanzhong began a big move, and a large number of residents from the Central Plains, Guanzhong, Sichuan, and southern regions were transferred to the Central Plains. Especially Daxing Mansion.

The Hebei region has not experienced the baptism of war for nearly twenty years. The last war was the Battle of Yehuling between the Jin Kingdom and Mongolia.

After years of development, under the governance of the Han princes in Hebei, a lot of vitality has been restored, and population farming has slowly recovered.

Coupled with this migration of nearly one million people, the population in the north has further increased, especially in Daxing Prefecture. The population has increased from more than 500,000 to one million. The former Jin Kingdom Palace has also begun to undergo renovations. , Zhang Yong mobilized 100,000 civilians and the top craftsmen who surrendered from the Southern Song Dynasty to start building his own palace.

During the construction of Daxing Mansion, Zhang Yong also officially left Guanzhong with his family.

He left Chang'an Mansion, which he had ruled as the core of politics for twenty years, and officially embarked on the road to Daxing Mansion.

A month later, Zhang Yong and his people successfully arrived at Daxing Mansion, and the whole family moved into this city together.

At the same time, a large number of private eunuchs and court ladies were also re-selected and sent to the palace. Zhang Yong's real political core area in the future is under orderly construction.

News also came from the Mongolian grasslands, including Brother Alibu, Hulagu and others.

The princes of the Tolui family have officially taken over a large amount of land in northern Mongolia. After annexing all the land, Ariq Böke and Hulagu also received orders from Zhang Yong.

First of all, the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom must be managed by the King of Guanzhong, but he can get a piece of land in Mobei Mongolia.

At the same time, the territory that was originally separated from the family needs to be redistributed. As for how to redistribute, they need to go to Daxing Mansion to meet Zhang Yong.

"Brother Xu Liewu! If you put it this way, are we going to give up the land of Jin Kingdom that Kublai Khan has worked hard for many years to give to Zhang Yong?" Brother Alibu said.

The land in the north of the Jin Kingdom is connected to Goryeo. If the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom is given away, it will be equivalent to giving up Goryeo. The Tuolei family will only have the land in the Mobei Mongolian grassland.

"Brother Alibu, my brother, remember, there is no Tuolei family anymore. You and I have established our own families and our land has been allocated.

It is impossible to obtain the land that the Tuo Lei family once owned. Do you want to become the second cute guy? "Xulegu glanced at Brother Alibu meaningfully, and then said.

He knew clearly what was going on in his younger brother's mind, but he wanted to nip this possibility.

How powerful is Zhang Yong now? That unified the entire South and the entire Central Plains. Tubo and Xixia have all surrendered to his feet, and Zhang Yong is moving the capital, relocating the residents of Guanzhong and Sichuan and Shu in the south to the land in the north and the Central Plains. In particular, Daxing Mansion is undergoing reconstruction.

The palace of the Kingdom of Jin is being renovated, and a large number of maids and eunuchs have been selected. It is obvious what this means, Zhang Yong is going to proclaim himself emperor.

Regarding Zhang Yong's desire to become emperor, Xu Liegu had actually guessed that this piece of eastern land would be taken over by the King of Guanzhong. Even if the other party was unwilling to become the emperor, the people in his hands would not agree.

Moreover, according to his wishes, his goal is also in the west, and he does not like the land of the Central Plains at all.

It just so happened that he didn't like Hulagu either, so the Western Expedition was the best choice. He would not lose anything by giving up the land passing through the north. He could even show his loyalty to Zhang Yong and allow him to Establish your own khanate.

"Brother! This Zhang Yong is the one who wants to imitate Brother Meng, right? He renovated the former Imperial Capital of the Jin Kingdom on such a large scale, and also selected a large number of palace maids and eunuchs.

This is obviously because he wants to be the emperor! "Brother Ali Bu looked at his elder brother and said with some excitement.

"There is nothing wrong with him being the emperor. He has the strength, and the land he occupies now is the Northern Song Dynasty, the former Liao Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, Xixia, Tubo, and Dali. All the lands put together, he rules these lands. Shouldn't he become the emperor?" Xu Liegu asked.

"Brother, do you think this is a good opportunity? Now the Great Khan is going to the west.

We can take the opportunity to seize the entire Tuo Lei family's territory and then divide it equally. As for the land in the north of the Jin Kingdom, if he must want it, then give it to him. "Brother Alibu said.

A head-on confrontation with Zhang Yong would be extremely irrational. Although the two of them have recruited a large number of troops from the Tuo Lei family, their troops are still not good enough.

"Brother Ali Bu! From now on, I will give you all this land in the east. Brother, I will take my herdsmen and all the troops to launch an expedition." Hulagu suddenly patted Ali Bu. Brother's shoulder, said.

It is basically impossible for people of his own generation to seek revenge from Zhang Yong, so under the current situation, he hopes that Brother Ali can rule the Mobei Mongolian grassland and firmly grasp the roots of their Tuo Lei family.

And he led his army to the west to seize a piece of land. If there is a chance in the future, he will attack Zhang Yong from the east and west directions. Let your descendants take revenge, maybe there will be a chance.

Of course, the greater possibility is that his descendants will also surrender to Zhang Yong, but there is nothing he can do about it. His father was too brave back then, and he offended Wo Kuotai and Zhang Yong. Brave.

Mother and Brother Meng are also people who accept death and insist on leading the Tuo Lei family to fight against Zhang Yong.

As a result, his family's territory and power have been continuously seized by the other party, until now. He became the worst among the four sons of Genghis Khan.

"Brother Xulegu! In fact, I know some things even if you don't tell me. Do we, do we really have no chance at all?" Brother Alibu asked.

"If Brother Meng had listened to me and established a territory in the West, and then the East and the West had cooperated with each other, then our family would have had a chance, but now there is absolutely no chance. Kublai Khan was indeed very resourceful, but he always despised the West. As a result, What? In the end, he didn't just run away, he even led Guyu to pursue him.

"Brother Hulagu! Do you think this trip will be a disastrous failure? Or, can he really destroy Brother Batu's Golden Horde? To be honest, I am not very optimistic about him." Brother Alibu He spoke.

Who is Batu? He is the most accomplished and capable of all three generations of descendants of the Golden Family. And it's one of a kind.

Even though he is an extremely arrogant eldest brother, Brother Meng admires Batu and even follows him.

Batu ruled the most fertile grassland in the west, and had a large number of Mongolian, Turkic, and Kipchak troops under his command. Although the total military strength was not 200,000, there were still 150,000 or 60,000.

While waiting for work, there is still a chance of victory against Guyou's 170,000 expeditionary force, and the chance of victory is even high.

"Hmph! This Western Expedition will definitely not destroy the Golden Horde. Brother Batu will definitely be able to defeat Guyu.

This time Guyu either returned in defeat or was killed by Brother Batu, but these are not what we need to care about now.

You and I are going to meet Wang Zhangyong of Guanzhong. This time you are with me and you will say whatever I say, you know? "Xulegu said.
