Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

What do these generals of the Wokuotai family and Wanhu households mean when they say this? Zhang Dingguan also knew it well. The Wokuotai family has a very good relationship with the Zhang family in Guanzhong.

Guyuk, the Great Khan of Mongolia, had great trust in his father Zhang Yong, but his father's strength had developed too fast in recent years.

The Mongolian Great Khan Guiyu would not say anything, but that did not mean that the people under him would not say anything. All the Mongolian nobles, whether they were from the Ogodai family or other kings of the East and West.

They all talked about the King of Guanzhong in private, hoping that the Mongolian Khan Guyuk could exercise restraint and weaken the power of the King of Guanzhong a little.

But Guyu turned a deaf ear to these words. There was still a tacit understanding between the two of them, and some things, including the division of territory, had been discussed before. So there is no problem.

But now the situation is a little different. The Mongol Khan Guiyou is about to pass away, and once the Mongol Khan passes away, it will involve the handover of the Mongol Khan's position.

No one dares to be careless about this matter, and no one dares to use this matter to block the king's loyalty, so the best way is to let the queen know about it as soon as possible.

"I understand what you mean. I will not hide this matter. However, regarding the election of the Mongolian Khan, is it too early to discuss it?" Zhang Dingguan said.

Uncle Guyu is not dead yet! You start thinking about these things.

"Eldest Prince, we see your family's help to the Wo Kuotai family. The forces in Guanzhong will always be allies of the Wo Kuotai family." A member of Wuguotai family stood up and said.

"After we go back, there will still be a National Preceptor to supervise the country for the time being, but the National Preceptor is in the Central Plains area after all, so one person still needs to be involved in matters on the grassland. I think the Queen Lost in the Sea is very suitable." Wanhu, a member of the Wokuotai family, spoke up.

"Well! I will personally write to my father about this matter, and then I will see what my father means. Don't worry, our Zhang family will never wrong Guyukhan's son." Zhang Dingguan said.

When Uncle Guyu was alive, the power of the Ogedei family was condensed together, but once Uncle Guyu died, the situation immediately changed.

The current situation is the time to compete for the Great Khan of Mongolia. Even many people in the Ogedei family have the right to compete for the Great Khan of Mongolia.

In the end, this gathering only decided that after the death of Guyuk Khan, everyone began to withdraw their troops, and nothing else was decided.

The only thing that was decided was to conceal the news of Guyou's death. The news of Guyou's death was only notified to the Wokuotai family and the army leaders brought by Zhang Dingguan. The other Tuolei families, as well as the kings of the East and the West None of the armies of the Tao kings would know about this.

Time passed slowly. Two days later at night, a doctor suddenly ran to Zhang Dingguan and told him that Guiyou had come to and was awake, but this was just a flashback. Guiyou would die soon, and Just tonight.

After receiving the news, Officer Zhang did not dare to be negligent. He immediately put on his armor and rushed to Guyu's tent.

At this time, Guyu had already stood up, he was awake and a little more energetic than before.

"Ahem! My eldest nephew, you're here! You, come and sit down. I didn't expect that it would be you who stayed with me in the end." Guyu coughed twice, patted the mattress next to him, and said.

After waking up, Guyu could clearly feel that his life was constantly draining away, and his time was coming soon.

"Uncle Guyu! You, you are soooooo!" Zhang Dingguan suddenly lay down on the bedside, and then burst into tears.

"Why are you crying? Everyone is going to die, it's just that they die early and die later.

But I really didn’t expect that when I was at my most energetic, Changshengtian would take me away, and I didn’t want to leave, but I had no choice. Guyu sighed heavily and said.

Now that I have returned to my former glory, I will soon face the end, just like my father Wokuotai. I never expected that!

It was quite ridiculous to say that he was about to leave just a few years after seeing off his father.

If he had known this, he should have listened to Brother Zhang's advice and his nephew's advice to drink less and avoid those women.

But sometimes people can't control themselves. If they could control themselves, they wouldn't be where they are today.

However, Guyu has no regrets or resentment. After all, all this was caused by himself and he cannot blame others.

"Uncle Guyou! Just tell me if you have anything to do. No matter what your last wish is, I will fulfill it for you." Zhang Dingguan said.

"Well! You are a good boy. I have been in poor health since I was a child. I have been frail and sick. Being able to live to be over forty years old is considered an blessing from God. For men on the grassland, those who live to be forty are actually no longer young. "Guiyou said.

Batu! You are so lucky. Sometimes I really doubt that God is on your side. I didn't expect that it was my body that collapsed during the Western Expedition.

You didn't defeat me on the battlefield, and I couldn't defeat you on the battlefield. What a pity, what a pity!

"Uncle Guyu!"

"Stop talking and listen to me. I guess I don't have much time. After I explain these things, I will go to see my father Khan!" Guyu pulled Zhang Dingguan to his side.

"Listen to me. After I die, you must keep the mourning secret, and then take all the troops back to the Mongolian grassland immediately. Go as fast as possible. Don't let Batu see anything.

After returning to the grassland, you go to ask your father, Zhang Yongzhang, the king of Guanzhong, to temporarily take over as the Great Khan of Mongolia. "Guiyou said.

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Dingguan was stunned. What is this? Shouldn't the new Mongol Khan be your son? Why? Why did he become my father?

Could it be that Guyukhan was testing his family? But it shouldn’t be! Because it's totally shameless.

"Listen to me, I understand the personality of our Mongolians very well. When my father Khan was still alive, he could not help me become the Great Khan, let alone my son.

If I pass on the Great Khan of Mongolia to him, then I will harm him, and my son will soon be killed by those Mongolian nobles.

And they will kill all my sons without leaving any one alive, so I need someone who can control them all to take over this position.

I know that Brother Zhang’s heart is in the East and he wants to be the emperor of the East.

And I and my descendants will not stay in the east for long, after Brother Zhang goes to the west to destroy Batu.

Just give the Kipchak grassland and the original territory of the Ogedai family to my son and let him become the Great Khan.

After you go back, you must ask your father to lead troops to the Mongolian grassland as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. Otherwise, my whole family will be poisoned. "Guiyou said.

This is not an alarmist statement. As a Mongolian, he knows the virtues of the kings of the East Road, the kings of the West Road, and even the ten thousand households under his command.

When you have power, they will obey you, but when you don't have power, they will turn into hungry wolves and eat you up.

He didn't want the Central Plains area on the grasslands. Now his descendants, his young son, can't hold this position at all.

If you force yourself to sit on it, it will be a dead end. It is better to give this position to Brother Zhang and let him stabilize the situation.

After the Western Expedition is over, with Brother Zhang's character, he will return the position of Great Khan to his son. After all, Brother Zhang cares more about the position of Emperor than the position of Great Khan.

He is the emperor, and Brother Zhang is a man who misses his old love, when his father died. If it weren't for Brother Zhang's full support from the operation, how could he possibly have outplayed Brother Meng, and how could he have ascended to the position of Mongolian Khan so smoothly?
The only thing to blame is that my body failed to live up to expectations, and I ruined a great situation with my own hands.

Brother Zhang had warned him before, but he couldn't listen, and he didn't expect that his body would collapse so quickly.

He originally wanted to play until he was fifty and then take care of his body, but he didn't expect that he couldn't bear it anymore when he was forty.

"Uncle Guyuk! Even if your son cannot become the Great Khan of Mongolia, I will definitely protect him. Don't worry." Zhang Dingguan said.

"Well, I believe in you, and I will entrust my family to you until you withdraw to Hara and Lin.

You take all my young son, wife and children away. If you like the woman inside, you can bring them into your house. I only ask you one thing, save my son's life. "Guiyou said.

Anyway, according to their Mongolian rules, women can inherit it. If your son can't inherit it, then give it to the person you trust most!
At least let these poor women have someone to rely on.

"Uncle Guyou! Don't worry, as long as my father and I are alive, no one can harm your heirs.

I promise you that in the future I will definitely launch a western expedition to completely destroy the Golden Horde in Batu, and then turn it into the territory of your son. "Zhang Dingguan said.

"Well! Then I'll leave this task to you. I believe you can definitely complete it. You are also the grandson of Genghis Khan, so defeating Batu is a piece of cake." Guyu said.

The two chatted for a while, and Guiyou immediately brought paper and pen, and then personally wrote an edict of succession, abdicating the position of Great Khan of Mongolia to Zhang Yong.

And in the final agreement, after the success of the Western Expedition in the future, he would share all the Kipchak grasslands of the Golden Horde and the original territory of the Ogedei family with his son.

Zhang Dingguan also stood by as a witness and personally watched his noble friend write the edict and then stamp it with the elite of the Mongolian Khan.

"You take this secret edict and give it to your father after you go back. You must ask him to lead troops to the Mongolian grassland as soon as possible to stabilize the situation. Otherwise, the entire Mongolian grassland will be in chaos." Guyu said.

He could already foresee that after his death, various forces in Mongolia would begin to compete for the position of Great Khan of Mongolia, which would greatly weaken the power of eastern Mongolia and give Batu in the west an opportunity to take advantage of it.

"I understand, Uncle Guiyou! Some ten thousand households of your Wokuotai family have now decided to supervise the country after being lost in the sea. However, they will only manage the grassland areas. The Central Plains area is still managed by my father." Zhang Dingguan He spoke.

"No, after you go back, you must stop that woman. She has failed in many achievements and failed in many cases. She does not have the scheming and skills to control the entire grassland. I know this." Guyu said.

What kind of virtue is his wife? Is it possible that you don’t know the reason? If he is asked to run the country, it will be all kinds of chaos, just like his mother managed the country back then.

If it weren't for Brother Zhang's help, his mother could have emptied Mongolia's treasury and divided up all the land. (In the original history, the two queen mothers said that it could be said to have greatly ruined the reputation of the Ogedai family. Originally, the Ogedai family was very popular and even loved on the Mongolian grasslands.

When Wokuotai and his son became the Great Khans, they were quite generous with their spending. Basically, as long as you went to the audience, you would not leave empty-handed. However, all the family assets were basically taken care of by their wives. Five years, three years, and eight years later, everything was handed over to the Torre family. )
After writing this edict, Guyu's face turned pale and his body even swayed a little.

"Hurry up, hurry up and call all the ten thousand and one thousand households in our Ogedai family to the tent." Guyu said.

In the future, the position of Great Khan of the Wokuotai family can only be passed on to his own son, so everything depends on you, Brother Zhang, and you kid, Zhang Dingguan.

In just a moment, generals from more than a thousand households in the Ogedai family were all gathered in Guyu's room.

Guyu once again conveyed the words of promotion to all the generals of the Ogedai family.

"After you return to the East, you must support Zhang Yong, the king of Guanzhong, the national advisor of our Great Mongolia, to become the new Mongolian Khan. He is also a member of the Golden Family. He is qualified to inherit the position of Mongolian Khan. As for choosing the Khan, I believe No one can match Brother Zhang in terms of prestige," Guyu said.

"Great Khan! We, we can support your youngest son to become the new Great Khan of Mongolia. Why? Why should you give up the throne of the Ogedai family to others?" A member of the Ogedai family was very puzzled. Asked.

Isn't that why they want to spread the news back to the Mongolian grassland so much? Keep the position of Great Khan of the Ogedai family? How come now? You, the top leader of the Ogedai family, actually want to hand over your throne.

"What do you know? No need to ask more, just follow my orders. In the future, Zhang Yong, the king of Guanzhong, will lead you in the Western Expedition. After this Western Expedition is over, he will return the position of Great Khan of Mongolia to My son, when my son reaches adulthood, he can take this position firmly," Guyu said.

No matter what, he chose to believe in Zhang Yong's character. He had no way of seeing his son grow up. In this case, he could only take a gamble.

A few years ago, my father Ogedei was also independent and chose to believe in Brother Zhang's character, and Brother Zhang did not let me down.

Brother Zhang almost tried his best to push himself to the position of Mongolian Khan, allowing himself to ascend to this supreme position.

Several of his brothers are now dead, and there is no one in the Wokuotai family who can control the situation, so everything from now on will depend on Brother Zhang.

The land in the west belongs to him. This has been discussed with Brother Zhang before, and Brother Zhang will not lie to him.

"Sweat!"

"Ahem! Okay! Don't say any more, I've already decided. I'm calling all of you here to be a witness. Our Ogedai family will fully support Brother Zhang.

Don’t forget, Brother Zhang, your Imperial Master is also a descendant of our Ogedai family, and the wife he married is also Ogedai’s daughter. "Guiyou said.

The reason why he has such a close relationship with the Wokuotai family is that in addition to his own relationship, Zhang Yong is also his father's son-in-law!

“Great Khan, we understand, we will strictly abide by your orders, but we also have to say something ugly beforehand.

If in the future, the Imperial Preceptor does not launch a Western Expedition and does not return the position of Great Khan of Mongolia to your son, we people will never give up. "A Mongolian householder gritted his teeth and said.

"You don't need to worry about this. I assure you that my father will never be like this." Zhang Dingguan said.

His father had told him that if the land area was too large, then the enfeoffment system could only be adopted, and centralization of power could only be implemented in the Central Plains.

The descendants of Guiyou's eldest brother on the grassland can naturally guard the Western countries.

"I believe Brother Zhang, he will not let me down. While I can still walk, you will accompany me and walk around the military camp. I want all the Mongolian soldiers to see me." You spoke.

"Sweat! You, your body."

"I have to hold on, I have to finish this lap, otherwise, the morale of the army will definitely be shattered." After Guyu said this, he suppressed his physical discomfort. With the support of Zhang Dingguan, he slowly walked out of his tent.

Then he started to greet the soldiers around him and asked about their current situation. He patrolled for about a cup of tea.
Guyu's face became paler and paler, and his body showed signs of being unsteady. At this time, the Mongolian military camp had been moved to many places, and many soldiers had witnessed the Mongolian Khan with their own eyes.

With the support of Zhang Dingguan and other members of the Wokuotai family, Guyu returned to his camp.

Then he lay on the bed, slowly stopped breathing, and finished the last day of his life.

"Uncle Guyuk! Don't worry, nephew, I promise you that I will definitely launch another western expedition to completely destroy Batu's Golden Horde." Zhang Dingguan knelt in front of Guyuk's bed and said.

A few days later, the Mongol Khan announced his withdrawal due to physical discomfort and began to return eastward. (End of chapter)
