Chapter 469

Genghis Khan was silent.

Mu Huali understood in an instant. He frowned and stared angrily at Shiji Hubald: "You are the eyes and ears of the Great Khan, and no one can violate your words! If anyone is not loyal to the Great Khan, you should They put death to death, punish punishment! Why don't you do it!"

"It's not a matter of losing luck and baldness!" Genghis Khan raised his hand and pressed Mu Huali's shoulder.

"Who? Who is it?" Mu Huali blushed, asked a few words, and then looked at Huo Erchi, who was fanning himself, "Could it be that Huo Erchi can't punish those people? Khan, I willing……"

Genghis Khan pulled Mu Huali to relax his clenched fists and calm down.

He opened his mouth, and said to Shiji in a weary way: "You tell me!"

"As ordered."

Today's Genghis Khan is a powerful commander recognized by countless people on the grassland.

In his more than 20 years of fighting career, he has had countless powerful enemies.

From the Mierqidi tribe who was entrenched in Buwula River at the beginning to fight, to the vast population, known as the strongest Taichiwu tribe; Ministry, but as a long-branched nobleman, Zhu Erqi.

Then to Hedajin, Sanjiwu, Duoerbian, Hongjila and other countless tribes, and even the warrior among the warriors, Jamuhe Khan, and Tuoli Khan of the Kret tribe who was respected by Genghis Khan as his father.These enemies were either heroic, powerful, prestigious, or widely supported, but they were all defeated by Genghis Khan.

For thousands of years, the people of the grasslands have had little civil society and even less written historical records, but only relying on the memory of word of mouth, every Mongolian can know that since ancient times, no one has been able to grow from nothing like Genghis Khan. Rising from the realm of the world, to rule the grasslands of thousands of miles.

So there is no doubt that Genghis Khan is a powerful commander that has never existed since ancient times.

Every Mongolian thinks this way, except Genghis Khan himself.

He knew very well that his archery skills were far inferior to Jebe's, his bravery was far inferior to Zhe Lemei's, and his decisiveness was inferior to Subutai... He could list a hundred such comparisons.

Since he gathered the crowd, every capable subordinate he has promoted has one or more abilities that far exceed his own. This is the case for Mu Huali and Shiji Hutuhu in front of him, the great shaman Kuo who is muttering a mantra Er Chi is the same.

The ability to win countless victories and unify the grassland did not depend on Genghis Khan's own strength, but because he was able to gather the strength of all people with all his strength, and condensed ten, hundreds, or even thousands of people into steel.

When Genghis Khan was elected Khan for the first time, he abandoned the original tribal organization.He was led by Borshu, Zhuochi Hesaer, Bili Gutai, etc., and divided into ten positions such as carrying bows and arrows, carrying knives, and controlling horses. Teams, use strict military discipline to restrain them.

In the subsequent wars, Genghis Khan reiterated his discipline time and time again, and strictly enforced the law. He himself strictly followed every Zhasa issued, and he also ordered all those who followed him to obey.

For thousands of years, the steppe people have been the best knights and hunters, but the natural looseness of the nomads has restricted them and prevented them from being the best fighters.However, the noble leaders of various ministries lack tenacity and selfishness, let alone build the best army.

Those countless powers that swirled and disappeared, from the Xiongnu, Xianbei, to Khitan, were all like this, and it seemed that they would be like this in the future.

But Genghis Khan was determined to change this situation.

He uses strict laws to punish the reckless behavior of his subordinates; he uses fair and just control to fight against the greed and selfishness of his subordinates; Come to suppress the ambitions of the various ministries, and use successive victories and unprecedented generous rewards to penetrate the majesty of Genghis Khan into the hearts of every soldier.

From the repeated defeats and battles in youth, to the inevitable battles in middle age, is it because Genghis Khan himself is stronger and better at fighting?

of course not.

That's because, with the passage of time, Genghis Khan's unremitting efforts have yielded results, and the transformation and tempering of the grassland nation has yielded results.The army he led was more disciplined, more command-oriented, and more courageous and tenacious than those assembled by other Mongolian tribes; as for victory, it was within easy reach.

Genghis Khan knew this process very well, and he knew where the victory of the Mongolian army came from.

However, many Mongolian nobles don't understand it, and even if they understand it, they secretly oppose it.

Because the process of Genghis Khan's transformation and tempering of the Mongolian nation was also the process of disrupting the old order on the grassland and depriving the old tribal leaders of their privileges.

During this process, many people who were favored by Genghis Khan and those who were rewarded for their meritorious service in the war suddenly rose up and took power; countless tribes were dismantled and smashed, and the status of the old leaders was not recognized. households, hundreds of households, and even subservient to the slaves of the past.

Genghis Khan became less and less like the leader of a nomadic tribe, and gradually transformed into an emperor who controlled everything.

Can they accept it?

impossible.

Even if all the ordinary Mongols thought that Genghis Khan was Hai Dongqing who flew here holding the sun and the moon, representing the blessing of the Longevity God, the only one recognized by these tribal leaders was Temujin of the Qiyan tribe.

Temujin Khan was elected by the leaders of various ministries. The leaders can recommend him, and they can also recommend others!He is the Great Khan of Yeke Mongol Ulus, but he is not the emperor who dominates everything. There has never been an emperor who can dominate everything on the grassland!

Therefore, in the process of Mongolia's prosperity, the struggle between many people and Genghis Khan continued.But they did obey Genghis Khan's military orders, and they relied on the traditions of the grassland tribes for thousands of years. Even Genghis Khan himself could not break with them because of this. Many contradictions have always been hidden under the water. No way of knowing.

But Mu Huali and Shiji Hutuhu are both Genghis Khan's cronies, they are very clear.

They also saw many clues that were revealed outside.

When the thousand households were divided that day, Chi Laowen, who was closest to Genghis Khan, got nothing.

Many clansmen who had fought against Genghis Khan had obviously been dismantled into pieces, but Wang Guer, Tuowolinle and others rebuilt them and organized them into thousands of households under the banner of Genghis Khan.

Another example is Kuo Kuo Chu, the son of the old man Menglik. As the leader of the shaman, he is known as "Tebutengli".But he suddenly pointed the finger at Genghis Khan's brothers Timuge and Hasar, and then broke with Genghis Khan... Behind this, is there no one who fanned the flames?

The rise of Genghis Khan cannot take care of everyone's interests, and no matter how much the Mongolian army grabs, some people feel that it is not enough and feel wronged.

It was just after withdrawing troops from the Central Plains at the beginning of this year and returning to the grassland.Some thousands of Nayan households suffered losses but failed to reap benefits, so they complained all day long, saying that the cattle and sheep were dead, the grass was bitter, the carts and tents were broken, and they could not go out with the Khan in the future.

There are also some people who participated in the two major attacks in the Year of the Goat and the Year of the Dog.Under the leadership of Genghis Khan, countless money, silk, and supplies were looted from the Central Plains, and countless male and female slaves were taken away.

As a result, they are fascinated by these harvests, immersed in it all day long, drinking and reveling every day, and as a result, they change from eagles and hounds to fat pigs in a few months.They also told their subordinates: All of this is enough. The gold and silver will not be used up on the grassland for 1000 years. What else is there to plan?

When Shiji Hutuhu said this, he bowed slightly to Genghis Khan.

"You say, isn't this stupid?" A sneer appeared on Genghis Khan's face:

"In this world, is there any reason why you must give it? Is there any reason why you have to eat when you encounter it?"

"no!"

"In this world, is there any reason not to hold a sword, but let others offer cattle, sheep, and beautiful wives and concubines? Is there any reason to ride a galloping horse, but protect yourself from the hands of the enemy, and bless yourself with endless blessings? ?”

"no!"

"So I came here in person, played a game, and told them the truth!"

Genghis Khan's prestige comes from endless wars.Therefore, some people think that as long as the start of the war is delayed, Genghis Khan's process of concentrating power can be hindered.But they are completely wrong.

Genghis Khan dropped his legs, got up and stood in front of the raging bonfire.He stared at the billowing smoke, and said in a deep voice: "I am the great sweat of Ulus in Yeke Mongolia, but not only the sweat of Mongolians, but also the sweat of Wangu, Xi, Khitan, Uighur, and even Han. Khan. Since the thousands of Mongols are exhausted, this time, they will not be used. I brought the Qixue army and sons from the grassland, as well as the subordinates of Yiduhu and Arslan Khan. More than [-] riders have gathered Wang Zhenguo of Beiping, Shimo Mingan, Yelu Ahai and others to go south one after another, that's enough!"

Mu Huali asked tentatively: "Does the Great Khan want to attack the Kingdom of Jin again? In that case, please allow me to call my subordinates from the Han region to discuss together in front of the Great Khan's tent..."

"It is to attack the Kingdom of Jin again, but there is no need to go that deep."

Genghis Khan stretched out his palm and waved across the smoke column, letting the smoke billow, rolling up all kinds of gestures.

"Yelu Ahai and Shimo Ming'an told me long ago that the siege equipment made by Han craftsmen can destroy the city wall like tearing paper. You have already made it, which is very good. This time, we slowly Slow down. Destroy the enemy near the central capital, and then take the central capital. I heard that the big city is where all the wealth of the Jurchens gathers. I will reward all the spoils to the soldiers; but, I did not participate Fighting Chito, give nothing."

Mu Huali was still pondering, and Genghis Khan asked the silent shaman in a playful tone: "This time, will it go well?"

Huoerchi respectfully said: "The will of Changshengtian has always been so clear. No matter what kind of enemy we face, the Great Khan will surely win."
