Chapter 423 Going to the South of the Yangtze River
After Xiaoqi finished reading, he returned to his original position. I said: "While conveying the reward order, the Military Council reiterated the military orders of our court to all military regions. All military regions are required to abide by the military orders of the court. Military orders are like a mountain. Anyone who disobeys orders, regardless of their position, will be punished by military discipline."
Lu Xiufu went out on behalf of the Military Affairs Council and said: "Your Majesty, I accept the decree."
Historically, the Xianchun court had very weak control over the generals in the army. Especially in the battle to rescue Xiangyang, the generals who held military power often did not listen to orders and acted on their own. Generals like Xia Gui, Fan Wenhu and other generals were basically shady. Fengyang disobeyed and obeyed orders but not orders. Even with Li Tingzhi's ability, he could not command Fan Wenhu, who was nominally under his command. This resulted in the Song Dynasty's reinforcements losing troops and generals again and again when rescuing Xiangyang, with no success. After returning, Zhang Shun and Zhang Gui, who were recruited from the civilian population, broke through the tight encirclement of the Mongolian army and were able to enter Xiangyang. However, they were eventually killed in battle due to Fan Wenhu's breach of trust.
"Dear dear friends, I have another good news to tell you." I paused briefly. "Two days ago, news came from the Sichuan Military Region. Zhang Wu of Quan Lizhou summoned the Daqing Qiang Lord to surrender. The Daqing Qiang Lord surrendered. .As a result, the Qiang people in Sichuan have expressed their goodwill to our DPRK and are willing to work with our DPRK to fight against the Mongols."
Wen Tianxiang said excitedly: "This is good news. Just as His Majesty said, unite all forces that can be united to fight Mongolia together."
"That's right. Our Chinese family has a long history. It's not just the Han people. There are also a large number of fraternal ethnic groups such as the Miao family and the Zhuang family. As long as we all unite, our strength will become stronger and stronger."
Wen Tianxiang said: "Your Majesty's ethnic policy is becoming more and more effective. Coupled with Lord Tian Zuiyan's efforts this year, I believe that all ethnic groups in our country will soon form a unified anti-Mongolian front."
"Well, the formation of this front marks the strengthening of our country's resistance to Mongolia. This will increase our chances of victory."
In mid-August, various military supplies were continuously delivered to the major military regions at the front. In the factories and workshops directly under the Ordnance Supervision and Firearms Supervision, craftsmen and workers worked overtime to produce a large number of arms and weapons. On the 14th, the fleet along the river The establishment commander Chen Yi led two thousand naval troops and a large amount of military supplies to Yingzhou. Together with the soldiers from the first wing of the Lin'an Military Region who arrived ten days ago, they took over the city defense of Yingzhou and began to secretly build a forward headquarters. .
September 1st. Capital of Mongolia.
Accompanied by ten fully armed guards, Kublai Khan ascended the general platform and stood majestically on the newly built high platform.
The stage was crowded with a large group of people, about several hundred people in total. Standing in the front were the ministers of the DPRK and various generals. Behind them were ordinary people from most of the capital. Most of them were Mongolian, Han, and Semu people.
"See you, the Great Khan. Long live the Great Khan." As soon as hundreds of people in the audience saw Kublai Khan ascending the general platform, they all knelt on the ground and worshiped loudly.
"Without any courtesy. On your own."
"Thank you Khan."
"Dear dear ministers, generals, and common people of our dynasty. At this moment, I am building a platform here to pay homage to the generals in order to conquer the Southern Dynasty. This move is in accordance with the destiny of heaven. It is actually the fate of the people in the world. Today, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty has no royal way. All ministers There is no way for ministers. This Khan wrote "Going to the South of the Yangtze River" to express the righteousness of our dynasty."
The picture in the house is large. It is the period of the unification of heaven. From north to south, the people of the six divisions are moved by thunder. First, they accuse the people and attack them. The general Gai will use the summer to change the barbarians. He wants to control Jiangsu and Zhejiang and flatten them. He reaches the corner of Ruhai and mixes it. 1. It’s a pity that this Song Dynasty is trusting and inhumane. He is respected as a teacher and prime minister. He is entrusted with the power of the country. He helps the evil in the world. The real murderer and rebel is Jia Chong. His plan is based on his heart. He follows the traitor of Cao Cao. He is ignorant and ignorant. .Dancing to gain power. Praise for ousting Huang only to save his body. Achievements greater than those of the river. Inherited the favor of the emperor. As specialized as he was. Greedy for heaven's merit. Really unbeatable. Cherish the official title in order to dig out treasures. Strictly enforce the law in order to suffer the virtuous. Talented people seize land and fields but have no land to cultivate. They become independent and prices rise. Borrowing despicable people. Accompanying them for food in temples. Allowing people to rebel. Losing troops on the border. Ignoring the summons of thunder stars. Ignoring the coming of water and fire. Disasters. All the dynasties are private. They use generals to bribe them heavily. They use white letters to break the laws of the world. Qu Dan pens allow God to punish them. The people's hearts are alienated and they don't know. The destiny of the heaven is about to be reformed but they don't realize it. They are greedy. The joy of lakes and mountains, gathering treasures and treasures, not caring about the death of one's mother, seizing power for the sake of honor, but inheriting the king's favor, raising a child to retain the position, comparing oneself to the Duke of Zhou by virtue of one's own merits, bullying others, widows and orphans. It is not as good as Shi Le, who cherishes misfortunes deeply, indulges in evil and unbridled evil, and combines the two views of right and justice to punish him. He can relieve the anger of the people. I, the Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, am wise and wise, powerful and kind, burn incense to pray to heaven, and vow not to kill and mess with Haiyu. Stimulate the army and spread the land. Proclaim the emperor's power wherever he goes. Take advantage of the victory in a battle and cross the river. All the generals surrender and offer their soil. They bow their heads in front of me. They greet me with spears in front. They are the first to speak in the rear. It is as easy as a broken bamboo. It shows that the sky is obedient and people believe it. Help. Become popular and perform the work of grass-cutting. Unite the universe to bring peace and tranquility. Su people are calmed down. Be kind and lenient to the young master. The crime will stop the original evil body. From now on, you should abide by the order. Pay homage to the land and remove the big branches. In addition to rewards, he still held his official position and only paid homage.
"Going to the South" enumerated the sins of Jia Sidao, a powerful official in the Southern Song Dynasty. He also accused the inflation of the Southern Song Dynasty as harsh governance and promoted Mongolia as the teacher of justice in order to win the hearts and minds of the people of both Song and Mongolia.
Kublai Khan was full of energy. In such a spacious square, he recited the long "Xia Jiangnan Xi" one by one. There was almost no pause in the middle. It was enough to show that his skill was extraordinary. He even nodded to the shaman Supreme Cai Enji under the platform. Yahe Tianya God Zun Yin Tianya also sighed at the same time: "I didn't expect that the Great Khan's skill would be so profound."
"The great Khan is wise."
"Long live the Great Khan."
There was a chorus of shouts from the audience. Soon they gathered in one place and resounded all over the stage.
Kublai Khan waved his hands to signal for silence: "Everyone, in order to prove that I am right to serve as a disciple, I am here to serve the heaven. Next, I, the Supreme Shaman of the Mongolian Guardian God Sect, Cai Enjiya, will take the stage to ask for the holy will from heaven."
Cai Enjiya slowly walked up to the general stage. Although his voice was far less loud than Kublai Khan, everyone in the audience could hear him clearly: "Everyone, what I am holding in my hand are the three most common ones. Zhizheng copper coin. There are four words "Zhizhengzhibao" on the front. Now I will throw the copper coins. If all three copper coins point to the front after landing, it means that God's will is with me, and the eternal life will be with me."
Although shamanism is not like Taoism, Buddhism has complete doctrines and systems. However, it is the holy religion in the hearts of the Mongolians. As the highest holder of shamanism, Cai Enjiya is deeply respected by the Mongolian people. It can be said that it is the holy religion in the hearts of the Mongolians. Spiritual leader.
"All three copper coins must point to the front. This chance is too small. However, this is the only way to explain the will of God." The audience thought in unison. Everyone held their breath. Whether it was the ministers of the DPRK or China . Or ordinary people. They all looked nervously at Cai Enjia on the stage.
The supreme shaman Cai Enjiya smiled indifferently and stretched out his right hand calmly. No one thought that his gesture was profound. He just casually threw the copper coin to the sky. The copper coin kept flipping directions in the air and rose to the sky.
After the highest point, it immediately began to fall rapidly. The three copper coins spun in countless circles and fell straight to the ground. Just as they were approaching the ground
.I saw Cai Enjiya take out three feather arrows from his arms. He did not aim at all and threw them outwards lightly. The three feather arrows flashed like meteors. They were very fast and they caught up in an instant.
Three copper coins. The hole in the center of the copper coin was very small. The arrow of the feather arrow caught up with the copper coin at the moment it fell to the ground. It passed through the hole and nailed it firmly to the ground.
The copper coins were very small and were blocked by arrows. The people in the audience could not see the direction of the three copper coins at all. Kublai Khan looked at the silent crowd and said loudly: "Bo Yan. Check."
"Yes. Profuse sweat."
Boyan took a few steps forward. When he lowered his head and looked down, he saw that all three copper coins were face up. Each of them revealed the four Chinese characters for "Treasure of the Righteousness".
"Profuse sweating. It's all positive."
"Tenggri. Tengger (Mongolian, meaning immortality)"
"It's God's will. The Immortal God bless my court and be with my court."
As Boyan's voice sounded, everyone in the audience felt relieved. Everyone was smiling. Suddenly, cheers resounded through the sky again.
"God's will has been revealed. We in Mongolia have the help of the Immortal God. We will win this battle." Cienjiya's calm and old voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears. When everyone focused their attention on the general stage again.
But the figure of the Supreme Lord is nowhere to be seen.
Yin Tianya secretly praised: "I haven't seen Cai Enjiya take action in more than ten years. I didn't expect that Master Supreme's kung fu has improved so much. Although he can do it himself, he is not as easy as Master."
Kublai Khan laughed loudly and said: "Okay. All of you, my subjects of Mongolia, can come forward and take a look."
Having said that, not many people in the back dared to come forward. But all the civil and military officials standing in the front came forward to take a look. It was exactly as Boyan said. All three copper coins were face up.
After a while, Kublai Khan said: "These three copper coins have been placed here to witness the righteous deeds of our Mongolian army to defeat the Song Dynasty. Everyone, there are many people today. You can come here at any time in the future to verify the direction of the copper coins.
"
"Long live the Great Khan."
"Mongolia must win."
After seeing the copper coins, the officials couldn't help but start making a noise. The scene suddenly became lively again.
Kublai Khan once again stretched out his hands to signal everyone to be quiet: "We, the Mongolian Empire, have inherited the destiny of heaven. With the protection of the Immortal Heaven, we will surely unify the world. Next, I will start to point out the generals. General A Shu. Please come to the stage to receive the title."
Although the list of the generals of the Southern Expedition has been known to the world for a long time, these generals were still excited to experience the conferment ceremony in person. It also made the Mongolian people watching the ceremony extremely excited.
After Ah Shu came to power, he saluted and said, "The last general Ah Shu will meet the Great Khan."
From this moment on, Mongolia once again returned to a state of war. As a military general, A Shu changed his title from "Chen" to "Last General".
