Chapter 482 Swallow it in your stomach

When Shi Songzhi heard that Zhao Tai was following the Mongolian army northward, he broke into a cold sweat.

He was worried that Zhao Tai would not be able to accept the fact that he would let Kublai Khan go, so he suddenly attacked Kublai Khan.

If this is the case, the peace agreement signed by Meng and Song Dynasties will be in danger of being torn up.

At that time, in order to stabilize Mongolia, the Song Dynasty will definitely apologize.

Shi Songzhi rode on his horse, with a dark face, and secretly made up his mind: "King Linyi is a hidden danger after all. I, the Song Dynasty, will never allow such a vassal town to exist that does not obey the orders of the imperial court!"

At this time, Shi Songzhi chased all the way and finally arrived at the bank of the Huaihe River. He saw that the Mongolian army was still there from a distance, and he was instantly relieved.

Shi Songzhi glanced at the south bank and found no trace of the battle. His heart suddenly fell to the ground, "Fortunately! The King of Linyi took the overall situation into consideration and did not do anything stupid. Otherwise, he would blatantly undermine the peace treaty and it would be regarded as a rebellion against the imperial court, and the imperial court would definitely send troops."

Discuss it."

The Battle of Huainan had just ended, Mongolia was hurt, and the Southern Song Dynasty was not feeling well either.

Now that Shi Songzhi replaced Zheng Qingzhi as prime minister, what he inherited was actually a mess.

Although he has decided to eliminate Zhao Tai, the time is not ripe now. He must at least wait until he controls the Huai army and reorganizes the Song army before forcing Zhao Tai to hand over military power.

After all, Zhao Tai could fight against the Mongols. Before he was sure, Shi Songzhi would not take action easily, nor was he willing to see Zhao Tai do something that would anger the court and force the court to deal with him.

Just when Shi Songzhi was breathing a sigh of relief, a group of Mongolian cavalry galloped over and reined their horses in front of him.



Shi Songzhi saw the person coming clearly and saw that his face was full of anger. He couldn't help but wonder, "General Chacha, why are you here?"

Cha Ci was so angry that his face turned red, and he shouted directly: "Prime Minister Shi! What do you mean by the Southern Song Dynasty? Do you still have faith? Why did you go back on your word? Do you want to tear up the peace agreement?"

Shi Songzhi said in surprise: "General, why did you say this?"

Chachi was so angry that he was shaking all over and pointed to the east, "Just now, the Tiger Cavalry Battalion of the Qi Army suddenly rushed over and took away tens of thousands of our horses! If you don't give us an explanation for this matter, I, Mongolia, are not done with you!"

After Shi Songzhi, many Song generals heard that the Qi army had robbed the Mongolian troops, and they were shocked but also a little admired.

This is the King of Linyi, otherwise who would dare to do such a thing.

Shi Songzhi's Adam's apple squirmed, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked quickly, "I just stole the war horse. Is Prince Kublai Khan okay?"

Chaci nodded, "I just robbed the war horses, more than 10,000 of them. You must return them!"

Shi Songzhi thought quickly in his mind, and he immediately said, "General, calm down! The Qi army has newly joined our court, and it is difficult for our court to control it. Since it is the Qi army that seizes the horse, I suggest that you go directly to the King of Linyi to get it. After all, the horse is

It’s not where it really is!”

Chaci was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, Shi Songzhi said in anger: "The Prime Minister severely condemned the Qi army's behavior of seizing horses, and supported Mongolia in asking the King of Linyi for war horses!"

Cha Ci was speechless, "Can Zhao Tai listen to our request?"

Shi Songzhi spread his hands and said, "He doesn't listen to the truth either!"

Cha Chi's cheek twitched, he didn't expect the southerners to be so shameless.

Shi Songzhi's attitude was very obvious. He didn't want to take care of it and couldn't.

Kublai Khan was even less able to ask Zhao Tai for a horse now, so he could only break his teeth, swallow it in his stomach, and consider himself unlucky.

~~~~~~

On the north bank of the Huaihe River, the Mongolian camp.

Wokuotai stood in the military tent with his hands behind his hands and said in a deep voice, "When Kublai Khan comes back, let him come to see this Khan immediately!"

During this Mongolian southern expedition, Kublai Khan's army suffered a disastrous defeat, which led to the failure of the Mongolian southern expedition. Ogedei was quite annoyed, and at the same time he felt a little gloating about his misfortune.

At that time, his father, Genghis Khan, followed the Mongolian tradition of guarding the stove when young, and granted most of the pastures and herdsmen in Mongolia to Tolei.

This resulted in the strength of Tuo Lei's family being stronger than that of Wo Kuotai.

This made Wo Kuotai very afraid, so he kept looking for opportunities to weaken the strength of the Tuo Lei system, but before he could take action, Tuo Lei was poisoned to death by Zhao Tai in Sanfeng Mountain.

Although Tuo Lei died, Tuo Lei's pasture and tribesmen were inherited by his sons Meng Ge, Kublai Khan and others, and they still posed a threat to Ogedai.

Kublai Khan's defeat this time was both worrying and gratifying for Ogedai.

What he was worried about was that the disastrous defeat severely damaged Mongolia's vitality and affected Ogedai's plan to destroy the Song Dynasty. What he was happy about was that he could take this opportunity to suppress Kublai Khan and take over all the pastures and tribes controlled by Kublai Khan.

From this point of view, the peace negotiation between Meng and Song Dynasty allowed Ogedai to receive a sum of money every year, and he could also take this opportunity to annex Kublai Khan's tribe. For him, he gained a lot of benefits.

Therefore, Wokuotai was actually in a good mood at this time.

Seeing this, Yang Weizhong saluted, "Great Khan! The person who led the army must be held accountable for this tragic defeat, otherwise it will be difficult to restore the power of our Mongolian army!"

Wokuotai nodded, "If you win, you will be rewarded, if you lose, you will be punished. I have already given Kublai Khan a chance, and every time I think of him losing so miserably this time."

As they were talking, the tent curtain was raised, and a general came inside to report, "Great Khan, the people on the south bank have begun to cross the river!"

Hearing this, Ogedai stood up and said, "Go! Call the leaders of all the ministries over. When Kublai Khan crosses the river, I will publicly announce my punishment for him!"

This time Kublai Khan was defeated miserably, and Ogedai decided to take over Kublai Khan's pastures and tribes in front of many Mongolian nobles.

There were many Mongolian nobles present, and Kublai Khan had nothing to say. When Meng Ge returned to the grassland, he could only accept the reality.

Wokuotai gave an order, and the Mongolian nobles in the camp gathered in the big tent, waiting for Kublai Khan to come back, and they wanted to have a good fight.

At this time, everyone was talking for a long time, and the tent curtain was raised again, and someone came in to report, "Great Khan, Prince Kublai Khan has come ashore!"

Wo Kuotai sneered in his heart and immediately shouted in a deep voice, "Let him come to see this Khan!"

"Profuse sweat! I'm afraid it won't work now! Prince Kublai Khan was robbed of his horse by the Qi army. He was so angry that he vomited blood and fell into a coma. He hasn't woken up yet!" the guard reported.

Wo Kuotai frowned, "What? Are you going to let the thieves grab your horse?"

Many generals present were in an uproar and cursed Zhao Tai one after another.

On the whole, Wokuotai was quite satisfied with the terms of the peace negotiations between Mongolia and Song Dynasty.

Of course, he is satisfied only if the terms are fully implemented.

Although the treaty was signed, Wokuotai discovered that as long as the treaty involved Zhao Tai, the Southern Song Dynasty would not be able to fully implement it.

When Wo Kuotai said he would return the prisoners, he originally thought he could get tens of thousands of Han troops back, but Zhao Tai refused to do so.

Now that both sides have withdrawn their troops, Zhao Tai actually snatched Kublai Khan's horses again.

Wo Kuotai's face turned pale, "How many troops and horses were lost?"

"It is said that there are tens of thousands of them!" the guard replied.

"Great Khan! The Qi thieves have gone too far! We must send troops to destroy them!" Subotai's face was full of indignation.

The Mongolian nobles in the tent were filled with indignation and echoed one after another, clamoring to take it back, but Ogootai said nothing with a dark face.

That Zhao Tai has become a climate and cannot be destroyed just by thinking about it.

This time the Mongolian army suffered a disastrous defeat. Mongolia needed to rest and recuperate, and Ogodei had to readjust its strategy. It was impossible to deal with Zhao Tai in a short period of time.

Furthermore, the Southern Song Dynasty promised to give money every year, and Wo Kuotai did not want to tear up the peace agreement for the time being.

"Kublai Khan is a loser!" Ogodei did not respond, but instead scolded Kublai Khan, "As a Mongolian warrior, I can't even watch my own horse. What a shame to me, Mongolia!"

On the north bank of the Huaihe River, a small boat docked, and Kublai Khan was carried off.

Kublai Khan was actually awake, but he felt that it would be better to sleep, so he did not open his eyes.

At this time, he opened a slit in his eyes, quietly observed, and found that his subordinates were carrying him to the camp. He immediately reached out and grabbed Yang You beside him.

Yang You looked at Kublai Khan and saw that he had his eyes closed. He was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and said to the soldiers carrying the stretcher: "Your Majesty is sick and needs to see a doctor. Let's not go back to the camp and go straight back to the grassland!"
