After Fan Yongji met with Zhao Hu, he summoned his subordinates to discuss the matter overnight.

Suddenly Daru Hua Chisi Shu burst in and asked loudly, "Fan Wanhu, I heard someone said that you had a private meeting with people from Qi."

In order to control the Han territory, Mongolia sent Daruhuachi to each city to monitor the Han army in the city.

Sishu arranged an informant around Fan Yongji. He learned that Fan Yongji had a private meeting with the envoys and might launch a rebellion. Instead of escaping from the city, he led his subordinates and broke in directly.

Fan Yongji was a little surprised, but he still smiled and said: "Sishu, don't listen to the slander. How can you believe such an obvious attempt to sow discord?"

Sishu sneered and said, "You said you didn't meet with the Qi envoy, so you should hand over your military power now to prove your innocence."

After hearing this, Fan Yongji stopped pretending. He glanced at the generals and said, "Since ancient times, good birds have chosen trees to roost, and wise ministers have chosen their masters to serve. Now that Mongolia's defeat has been determined, we are all Han people, why bother to be buried with the Mongols!"

Sishu was furious, "Fan Yongji, you really want to rebel!"

Fan Yongji sneered, "Those who think about skills and understand current affairs are heroes. Haven't you heard this sentence?"

Thinking clearly, if Fan Yongji rebels, the situation in Hedong is very likely to collapse. He suddenly drew his sword and shouted angrily, "You all want to follow Fan Yongji and rebel. Aren't you afraid that the prince will lead his troops back and kill you all?"

Sishu decided to break into the meeting in the hope of calming down some Han generals and stopping Fan Yongji's rebellion. However, he obviously overestimated the current deterrent power of the Mongolian army.

Fan Yongji suddenly drew his sword, "What are you waiting for?"

Except for a few of the many Han generals around who did not move, they all drew their swords and chopped down Sishu's men in a few strokes, and pinned Sishu to the ground.

Fan Yongji stepped forward and chopped off Sishu with a knife. He glanced at all his subordinates and said, "I don't care who among you informed Sishu. I can let go of past events. Now that I want to raise troops and submit to Daqi, which one of you will

If he still dares to block the brothers' way of survival, I will never let him go."

Upon hearing this, many generals quickly saluted with clasped fists, expressing their willingness to obey.

Fan Yongji immediately softened his tone and said, "Brothers, I don't need to say more about the situation in Hedong and the situation in the world. Now is the time for us to submit to the Qi army. The envoy of Qi has promised me that we will never treat you badly."

After Fan Yongji made his decision, he received the support of some close friends and quickly cleaned the city.

When the Mongolian troops in the city learned that Fan Yongji was going to join Qi, most of them were happy. However, some Mongolian generals were reluctant to part with the benefits that Mongolia had promised, and they scolded Fan Yongji for betraying his enemy for glory, and were directly executed by him.

Fan Yongji raised the rebel flag in Fenyang, which immediately caused great excitement in Hedong.

Zhao Tai had many contacts with the princes of Hedong before, and not long ago he beheaded Liu Yuanzhen, the son of Liu Heima, alive.

Zhao Tai's good and bad words have all been told to Hedong Shihou, and everyone cannot continue to be as ambiguous as before.

Now they saw that the Mongolian army was unable to defeat the Qi army, and the Mongolian army's food supply was overwhelming them.

After Fan Yongji defected to Qi, the prefectures and counties outside Taiyuan where the Mongolian army had weak control gradually raised the banner of anti-Mongolia.

~~~~~~~

Outside Yangquan County, the Mongolian army camp.

A troop of cavalry galloped into the camp,

In the Mongolian army's tent, Guyu and others listened to the messenger's report, and everyone's expressions turned ugly.

These days, the Mongolian army violently attacked the northern camp of the Qi army, paying huge casualties but making little progress.

Now news came from the rear that the princes of Hedong had rebelled, making everyone look ugly.

Guyou's face was gloomy. He originally wanted to use this Hedong battle to establish his prestige, but now it seems that it may be difficult to achieve.

"The Qi camp cannot be conquered, and there is a rebellion behind us by the princes. What should we do now?" Guyou said through gritted teeth.

The current situation can be said to be extremely unfavorable for the Mongolian army. It will be difficult for them to defeat the Qi army if they continue to attack, and the rebellion of the princes in the rear will definitely affect the food supply.

If the Mongolian army has no way to defeat Zhao Tai, then if there is a problem with the military rations, they will

will suffer a disastrous defeat,

Batu said: "What else can we do? Either retreat now, or attack with the whole army and defeat Zhao Tai before the food and grass are exhausted."

Brother Meng frowned, "Can the entire army defeat Zhao Tai with a strong attack?"

In the past few days, they have been attacking Beiying, but they have failed to defeat it despite heavy casualties. A forceful attack by the whole army will definitely result in a bloody blow.

Batu said: "Then there is no other way. Let's retreat quickly before the food is exhausted!"

Guyuk looked solemn, "Is there no other way?"

Everyone was silent. Zhao Tai did not fight them decisively, and the various places in Hedong were unstable. They continued to confront the Qi army, and would eventually be defeated by the Qi army.

This land east of Hedong was not originally Mongolian.

Although I feel reluctant to part with it, I can only give up Hedong at the moment and preserve my strength.

If these 200,000 troops were transferred to Yangquan, the Mongol Empire would fall apart.

Seeing that no one answered, Guyou sighed and was about to make a decision when Yang Weizhong suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Great Khan, I have another plan!"

Batu, Meng Ge and others couldn't help but cast their eyes on him.

Guyou was a little surprised, "What other plans does the Prime Minister have?"

Yang Weizhong was in a complicated mood. He seemed to have been having an ideological struggle for a while, and finally said cruelly: "Great Khan, this plan is a poisonous one. It will destroy Hedong at the cost of forcing Zhao Tai to fight decisively."

Guyou and the others looked at each other. They were all ready to give up on Hedong just now. Naturally, they didn't care whether Hedong was destroyed or not.

Brother Meng narrowed his eyes and asked, "What is Prime Minister Yang's plan?"

Yang Weizhong said in a deep voice: "Great Khan, princes, my plan is to retreat the army and send troops to massacre the Hedong counties that we can still control. If Zhao Tai continues to stay in Yangquan, we will kill all the people in Hedong.

will east of the river

All the money and food were transported back to the grassland. At that time, Zhao Tai occupied Hedong, which was also a ruined Hedong. If Zhao Tai leads the Qi army to stop us after seeing us slaughtering the people in Hedong, we can choose a battlefield and defeat the Qi army in one fell swoop."

Guyu and others couldn't help but look at each other after hearing Yang Weizhong's words.

Guyuk immediately said: "Prime Minister, I think this strategy is good. If we can lure Zhao Tai out, we will fight him. If Zhao Tai doesn't come out, then we will destroy Hedong and take away everything we can.

It can reduce our losses."

Batu nodded frequently, "I also agree with this method. If Zhao Tai doesn't go to war, we will kill and rob Hedong."

Hedong is Meng Ge's territory, but if it cannot be defended, leaving the people in Hedong will only increase Qi's strength.
