Xian Hu (Great Immortal of Tiger Power), Xian Lu (Great Immortal of Deer Power), and Xian Yang (Great Immortal of Sheep Power) were sent by Kublai Khan to offer prisoners to his father Temujin.
These captives were not simple figures. They were all queens, concubines and princesses from the countries in the Western Regions that he had conquered. No matter how low-status they were, they were still the daughters of a minister from one of these countries.
There was no way, who could let Temujin just have this mouthful?
As a king, what they call is not just simple female lust, but the desire to conquer in their hearts. What they want to conquer is not only the local land, but also the local population and the enemy's women.
Genghis Khan's desire to conquer was very strong, so many of his women were captured after defeating his enemies. Genghis Khan had many women and a large number of descendants. According to historical records, Genghis Khan had 39 wives, and 23 of them were named queens.
Of course, some say he has more than 300 wives. Others say he has 50 or 500 wives.
According to the "Historical Collection" written by the Persian Rashid, Genghis Khan had five hundred concubines in his harem, most of whom came from conquering various countries.
Although these records may be true or false, they are enough to show Temujin's desire to conquer in this regard.
"A man's greatest pleasure is to subdue the mob, defeat the enemy, seize everything he has, ride his steeds, and have his beautiful wives and concubines."
In this regard, the same is true for Li Xiang. After every battle, Li Xiang would more or less expand on the consequences. Is it really because Li Xiang is greedy for beauty?
It is not ruled out that there are reasons for this. After all, he has food and sex, a man's nature, and Lao Li is not a eunuch. However, how could a simple womanizer achieve such achievements?
What Li Xiang really enjoys is just the sense of satisfaction, being the wife of someone else, a true man should be!
Not just Temujin and Li Xiang, among the emperors of all dynasties, especially those famous emperors, how many of them did not have wives of others in their harems?
Later generations thought that this kind of thing was a stain on these emperors, but in fact, for these emperors, they would care about these things, and they might even regard it as an honor. Defeat your opponents and enjoy yourself
Those wives and concubines of sworn enemies, how could this be a stain?
Kublai Khan didn't mind doing what Genghis Khan wanted and asked his three brothers-in-law to pack all the captives to Genghis Khan. Whether they kept them themselves or rewarded them to his subordinates, he had to show off his presence first.
.
It is precisely because of this that Xian Hu, Xian Lu, and Xian Yang stayed on the nearby grassland, and Liu Yuan had the opportunity to contact these three people.
After contacting these three people, Liu Yuan's confidence in this battle greatly increased.
Although Xian Hu, Xian Lu, and Xian Yang were far inferior to their sisters, their performance was quite good. Together, the three of them once defeated the Jin general Li Hualong and defeated him.

"General, there is a letter from Floating Water House. Yuan Meng has sent Liu Yuan, the bodyguard, to come with 45,000 troops!" Yu Wentai strode forward and said.
Yuwentai was originally supposed to be the county governor, but the border governors could also meddle with military power when necessary. It could be said that they were in charge of politics and military affairs. In the county governed by Yuwentai, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and commerce was prosperous due to mutual trade.
.
Although the border areas have always been poor, with the help of commercial taxes, the tax items of the counties governed by Yuwentai are almost comparable to those of the counties in Qisi, Si and Yongzhous.
Although it seems silent, in addition to Yuwen Chengdu, there is another representative figure in the Yuwen family. The two of them are just one civilized and one military, complementing each other and becoming the two banners to protect the Yuwen family. If Yu Wenxian had not
In terms of Jingbei's contribution, it cannot be compared with these two people.
However, although Yuwentai can indeed handle military affairs and political affairs, he does not have the military merits to show off. Yuwentai's ambition is to become a figure like Wang Meng, who is both a general and a prime minister. Therefore, he volunteered to join this battle
among.
"Forty-five thousand, Yuan Meng has so many troops?" When he heard this number, Dou Xian was really surprised and shocked! Could it be that they had just entered the grassland not long ago?
It's time to be chased by the enemy, right?
Dou Xian has never doubted the authenticity of the news about the floating house. If there is a problem with such a big piece of information, then Li Xiang will probably personally intervene in this matter!
Moreover, in recent years, with the help of mutual trade between the border areas, the floating houses have gradually taken root and grown from struggling in the grasslands at the beginning. Their news is absolutely credible.
Forty-five thousand, this number was definitely far beyond Dou Xian's expectation.
You must know that half of Yuan Meng's own troops were used in the Western Regions, and now only half of the troops within Yuan Meng are left.
And now Yuanmeng, in addition to Liangzhou, also has friction with them in Bingzhou and Hezhou.
In this case, if a mere Liu Yuan can provide 45,000 people, then Yuan Meng will be really terrible!
Although Liu Yuan was originally a noble, and as a superior guard, his status was definitely not low, but there were definitely many Yuan Meng like him. If Liu Yuan could bring out so many people, then the entire Yuan Meng would be
How many are there?
"General, don't worry, there are 30,000 grassland herdsmen!" Yuwentai quickly explained.
After hearing this, Dou Xian felt a little calmer.
Although the herdsmen on the grassland can become soldiers and fight as soon as they mount their horses, this has a natural advantage for the Central Plains. However, they are definitely not comparable to the professional legions of Yuanmeng in all aspects. Otherwise, Tiemu
Why bother to set up a standing army?
The biggest difference is discipline!
And a strong army, lacking discipline, will always be missing something.
"This old guy Liu Yuan has a good idea!" Yuwentai said with a sneer on his face.
"Oh?" Dou Xian looked at Yu Wenxian and motioned for him to continue, but Yu Wentai didn't hide his clumsiness at this time and confessed everything he thought.
Since Temujin changed the military system, there has been no large-scale recruitment of herdsmen in the grasslands for a long time.
But what Liu Yuan did this time was clearly because he wanted to make a profit without losing money.
To recruit the herdsmen, Liu Yuan had enough power in his hands to defeat them, which was a great achievement. Even if he failed to do so, with such power in their hands, at worst they could maintain the situation and prevent them from continuing.
Wreaking havoc on the grassland.
Even with this result, as long as Temujin's reinforcements arrived, it would be a success.
