Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family
Chapter 537: Those who disobey will be executed; political power comes from the barrel of a gun
Alibugha and Hulagu didn't expect that Zhang Yong's assassin would sneak into their room?
After all, they are both princes, Mongolian princes, and now they belong to the status of host kings. Isn't it a bit too much of an underestimation of us for your subordinates, the King of Guanzhong, to just come in like this?
"I wonder what orders the Imperial Master has for us two?" Hulagu stopped Ariq Boke who was about to get angry, and asked very politely.
How can you turn against him at this time? We have no right to turn against him. You just don't understand the situation!
"Your Majesty, a few months ago, Prince Ariq Boke secretly sent an envoy to the west to inform Khan Batu Guyu about his western expedition. Your Majesty knew about it." The assassin leader said.
Even the title for Zhang Yong has been changed from Prince to His Majesty. After all, Zhang Yong's enthronement as emperor is now a foregone conclusion.
After hearing this, the two of them were immediately frightened.
"Messenger, what do you mean by this? We don't understand. Batu of the Golden Horde is a rebel king. How could we have any contact with him?" Hulagu smiled awkwardly and said.
Even Alibuga, who was standing aside, looked embarrassed, with sweat on his forehead.
When I sent the envoy to Batu, I did not bring any written letters. I just conveyed the order verbally. I should not have any handle on myself that could fall into Zhang Yong's hands.
Calm down, calm down. The other party has not caught me. In fact, this messenger just wants to come and scare me.
"Haha! Let's not beat around the bush. We know exactly when, where, and even where you sent the envoy.
There are even some of our people in your envoy team, so you don't need to quibble. His Majesty knows everything about you two.
What do you eat every night? When do you go to bed? Who do you sleep with? I know everything, very clearly." The assassin leader said.
His Majesty has been increasing the training efforts and investing more resources in the assassination unit. Their team has already infiltrated the entire Mongolian aristocratic forces.
Their assassin organization is divided into the north and the south. The south is managed by a group of assassins, who are mainly responsible for monitoring the Confucian scholars of the previous dynasty in the south and some giant local families.
The assassination troops in the north are monitoring the Mongolian princes. This plan has been going on for several years, so His Majesty will be able to know about any movement on the Mongolian grasslands as long as they show their heads slightly.
"Emissary, we are the princes of Mongolia after all! We also have some face. Will the future emperor of the Daqian Empire treat us like this?
We sincerely rely on him, and he has not officially ascended the throne yet. Now he is just an ordinary prince and state teacher of our Great Mongol Empire." Alibugha said.
You bastard, you are just a messenger. Believe it or not, I will kill you here.
"Haha! My two princes, please listen to this sentence first and then answer me." The assassin leader looked at the two of them with disdain.
Do you really think you are a prince? Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? Just the two of you?
"Messenger! I wonder if the Grand Master has anything to say to me?" Hulagu asked.
"You and Haimi are the Queen's deal, and His Majesty knows it very well. At the kurultai in the near future, the two of you must unconditionally support His Majesty in becoming the new Great Khan of Mongolia."
"We don't want to." Alibugha roared and drew his sword.
"Then there is no need for the two princes to exist in this world. The prince will kill you, it's that simple. If you want to die, just try it." The assassin leader said bluntly.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, and dozens of assassins stood at the door, like statues, just staring at the two of them quietly.
"If you don't agree, the army of my Daqian Empire will march to your home soon."
"You, you, Zhang Yong, how could he do this?"
"You two make your own choice. I hope you don't make the wrong choice, otherwise you won't even be able to get out of Hala and Lin." said the assassin leader.
A bunch of idiots, do you really think your plan can succeed? His Majesty has never taken you seriously from the beginning to the end.
In this world, birth and status are only secondary. The most important thing is that you have absolute military power and sufficient hard power.
Do you really think that the prince will not dare to touch you just because you are a member of the Golden Family? Do you know how powerful the Daqian Empire is now?
After destroying the Southern Song Dynasty and Dali, Your Majesty has completed the unification. Now the national strength is changing every day, and new troops are being recruited every day.
In the past, when there was Guyuk Khan on the Mongolian grasslands, Your Majesty still gave face to Khan Guyuk and allowed Mongolia to exercise self-control.
But now it is no longer necessary. In the face of absolute power, there is no need to play any conspiracies or tricks.
If you agree, you live; if you don’t agree, you die. There is no other way.
"Messenger! Go back and tell His Majesty the Emperor that since we two brothers have chosen to surrender, we will never rebel again. Also, this is Guyuk Snoring's last will and we will abide by it." Hulagu pressed down his brother, and Alibugha spoke with a pale face and a trembling voice.
I have to leave here quickly, I have to leave the land of the East quickly, living under the shadow of Zhang Yong, there is no way out! It is best to go to the West and establish my own Khanate.
The same scene happened in the tents of other princes, except that it was not assassins who went into their tents, but a large number of troops.
When Zhang Yong summoned the kings of the Western and Eastern Routes of Mongolia, he had already dispersed the Western Expedition army and arranged them in various parts of Mongolia, allowing them to return to their pastoral life.
In addition, tens of thousands of troops were mobilized from the Central Plains to crush the enemy in terms of military strength.
These kings of the East and the West have only two choices: either die or submit to me, Zhang Yong.
"Zhang Yong, how dare you do this? I am a prince of Mongolia, and you are also a prince. We are of the same level." A host prince looked at the envoy sent by Zhang Yong and said angrily.
"Hmph!" The leading general instantly drew out his long sword and slashed it across the neck of the host king.
"You, you! You actually killed my prince." The Mongolian servants in the room showed an expression of disbelief.
They never expected that Zhang Yong's army would kill them without giving them any face.
"Since he dares to rebel, he has no right to live. Soon, our Daqian army will attack his territory, and all his people and land will be incorporated into Daqian!" said the leading general with a cold snort.
In just three days, eight kings of the East and West were killed by Zhang Yong's subordinates.
At the same time, Zhang Yong also sent out eight armies to attack the territories of these kings of the East and the West.
They have only one mission, to annihilate all the forces under their hands and incorporate their land and people into their own territory.
The army of the Daqian Empire marched into the grassland in large numbers. The surrendered troops of the Tolui family and the Chagatai family were dispersed by Zhang Yong and arranged to live in other areas.
Some princes who want to rebel, Zhang Yong, I don’t care who you are. As long as you dare to show your rebellion, as long as you dare to say I don’t want to, I will kill you and will not give you a second way.
When you kill one person, no one will feel anything, but if you kill too many, then everyone will understand one thing, that is, they cannot disobey your orders. The entire Mongolian grassland was swept by a bloody storm in just a few days. The Daqian army under Zhang Yong attacked from all sides and began to encircle and suppress some forces on the grassland that were unwilling to obey them.
In just a few days, the Mongolian army and the Han army of the Daqian Empire launched wars against the territories of the East and West kings on the grassland who were unwilling to surrender.
Only half a month had passed, and the entire Mongolian grassland no longer dared to discuss a single issue.
As for those Mongolian nobles who were willing to submit to Zhang Yong and even promised to pay tribute in the future, Zhang Yong was very generous and rewarded them with cattle, sheep and some relatively remote lands that were not in contact with Daqian.
If you follow me, you will have food and drink, land, herdsmen, and people. If you don't want to follow me, you will die. There is no other way.
For a time, a large number of kings from the East and the West surrendered to Zhang Yong and dared not say anything more.
"Father! You, you have killed too many people in this period of time, including the kings of the East Road and the kings of the West Road." Zhang Dingguan came to his father's tent.
In his opinion, it was inappropriate to conquer the Mongolian grasslands in such a way. These host kings were all personally selected by Genghis Khan or Ogedei, and some were even descendants of Genghis Khan's brothers.
"Killing too many is not too much at all. If I keep them, they will only ruin my business and won't do anything beneficial to me." Zhang Yong said lightly.
This guy still can't see the situation clearly. With my current strength, do I need to be polite to them? Do I need to tell them so many things?
I have sent the army of Tolui's family and all their families far away, and tens of thousands of people from Ogedei's family are now hiding in Karakorum.
The army of the Chagatai Khanate could only rely on themselves. After all, they had left their homes and it was considered good enough if they could get something to eat.
"But father! If we do this, we might lose the support of the people of the Mongolian grasslands."
"You are thinking too much about losing the hearts of the people on the Mongolian grasslands. The living conditions on this grassland are extremely cruel. As long as you can keep them well fed, clothed and well watered, who will be willing to rebel? Who will be willing to take up a knife and fight? Also, you have to change the way you address me to father." Zhang Yong said with a smile.
You have also understood one thing, that is, human nature is like this, whoever can benefit you, whoever can bring you benefits, you will listen to him, this is an eternal truth.
I did kill quite a few kings of the East and West, but more of them submitted to me.
A whole year has passed since he conquered the Southern Song Dynasty, and more than half a year has passed since he conquered the Dali Kingdom. During this period, his son went out to fight.
Zhang Yong has not been idle. He has been integrating the power of the whole country to achieve true unification. Now the power of the Central Plains has formed a crushing trend over the grassland, especially after the emergence of hot weapons.
He also has a large number of Mongolian troops under his command. These people have followed him for more than 20 years and are his die-hard fans.
"Father, Father! Do you mean that doing this will not cause any resentment from the various Mongolian forces?"
"Haha! What's there to be disgusted about? I give them food, water, population and herdsmen, and they can't thank me enough. Remember, I have never harmed the interests of ordinary Mongolian people. In fact, under my rule, the lives of Mongolian people will be better." Zhang Yong said.
He dared to do this because he was confident. According to the original history, there were a large number of Mongolian troops in the late Southern Song Dynasty, and they were all refugees from the grasslands.
These Mongolian troops fought the Mongols without mercy. Why? Because they were oppressed too badly by some policies on the grassland.
Do you think that ordinary Mongolian herdsmen love these Eastern and Western kings very much? You are wrong. These are not important, not important at all.
All they need is to fill their stomachs. They don't care about reputation or who will be the master of the world.
What's more, do you think your father, I, have low prestige in the hearts of Mongolian herdsmen? I am a messenger of God, and I have been supplying food to the Mongolian grasslands for many years.
The reason why the Mongolian grasslands have been able to grow such a large population in recent years is not unrelated to the food I supplied. My reputation among the Mongolian people is still very high. Although I destroyed a lot of kings this time.
But it was his clan that was destroyed, and the troops under his command were simply disbanded and turned into Mongolian herdsmen again, which had no impact on ordinary civilians.
"I told you a long time ago that as long as you have the army, you can do everything. You must remember this." Zhang Yong said.
Only an absolute army can suppress all voices of resistance to you. It is impossible to subdue those who are determined to resist you by using gentle means.
So it is best to eliminate them. Keeping them will only cause you trouble. In the past, I was not strong enough, but now I am strong enough.
There is no point in keeping these kings of the East and the West who are rebelling against him.
"Father! I understand!"
"Well! Sometimes, when you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want, but slaughtering some aristocratic forces is the least likely to affect the problem." Zhang Yong said.
During the past half month, Guyu's former queen Hai Mishi had been in bad luck and even had a miserable life.
His former die-hard supporters were all eliminated by the troops sent by Guanzhong King Zhang Yong, and all the Mongolian nobles who were willing to support him turned against him.
They all turned to Guanzhong King Zhang Yong and supported the other side thoroughly, because Zhang Yong, who was unwilling to surrender, would send troops to investigate. He would send his troops to massacre the entire tribe.
For a while, all the kings of the East and the West were in panic. After all, their power was not that strong!
Although some people have the status of princes, they are at best only at the level of a thousand households, not even at the level of ten thousand households.
The real threat to Zhang Yong was the army, but the military power had also been dispersed by Zhang Yong. The army that had gone on the Western Expedition had been completely defeated, and part of the army of the Tolui family had been arranged by Zhang Yong to live in Qinghai, Western Xia.
Some of them were granted new lands, and these people have now become Zhang Yong's die-hard supporters. As for the army of the Chagatai family, it is better not to mention them. If they want to survive on this grassland, they cannot rely on their Ogedei family.
Now the entire Mongolian headquarters, Karakorum, has been occupied by Zhang Yong's army, and recently a steady stream of troops from Guanzhong have arrived in the Mongolian grasslands, completely controlling everything.
Now some princes of the Ogedei family have also chosen to remain silent. After all, no one wants to die. The King of Guanzhong will really kill people, and he will do so without mercy.
"Woo woo! Guiyou! You useless thing, why are you so useless?"
"Empress, you'd better not confront Prince Guanzhong head-on. We don't have any chance now. He will soon become the emperor of Central Plains and concurrently serve as the Great Khan of Mongolia." A Wanhu of the Ogedei family said with a sigh.
They, the generals, had already expected this result. The character of the King of Guanzhong was completely different from that of the eldest prince. The eldest prince might talk to them nicely and take some conciliatory measures, but the King of Guanzhong would not do that.
"But this, but all this originally belonged to me. He was trying to forcibly take away my property." Queen Haimisi said.
These lands once belonged to the Kerait, Naiman, and Merkit tribes. Now they belong to the descendants of Genghis Khan, so why can't they belong to others?
This woman still can't see clearly!
Now this King of Guanzhong doesn't want to reason with us at all. All he wants is our submission.
"I want to meet the King of Guanzhong in person. I want to ask him, when the Khan Ogedei and the Khan Guyuk were alive, they were so good to him and rewarded him with so much land, why did he bully an orphan and a widow like this?" Queen Haimisi said.
"Empress, please stop asking about this matter and just accept the arrangements made by the King of Guanzhong!
Considering the character of the King of Guanzhong, your son can at least become a Khan in the future." (End of this chapter)
