Chapter 322 Death of Tuo Lei
Li Ping is definitely a smart man. After the defeat of the Jin soldiers in the Sanfeng battle, he immediately surrendered to the Mongolian army at Xiantong Pass. He made a great contribution and his descendants will definitely not have to worry about it for the rest of their lives.

It was the same this time. When he heard that the Song army won and Jin and Meng were defeated, Li Ping actually didn't want to vote for the Song army because he still believed that the Mongolian army was relatively strong in this era.

But the Song army was approaching the city gate, and Tongguan was already an isolated city.

Li Ping thought about it, and if he was successfully deceived by Liu Zheng, it would show that he was stupid and incompetent. The Song Army would not necessarily thank him when they got Tongguan, let alone reuse him.

Later, it was not possible to sell the house and persuade him to surrender. It was the credit of the house, not Li Ping, that he surrendered.

So Li Ping immediately ordered the Song people to be released, and then sent people to follow the Song people secretly, and decisively found Jia Sidao.

After coming in, of course he would not kill anyone, but would ask who could make the decision?
Brush, the eyes of the Song people around him all looked at Jia Sidao.

Jia Sidao was also a person. He thought he was caught anyway, so he couldn't give in. He puffed up his chest. The shopkeeper had the final say here. He could be killed or beheaded as he pleased.

That's what he said, but if Li Ping really wanted to kill him, he would probably say that he was Zhao Yurui's brother-in-law. You can't kill me, but you can negotiate conditions.

Li Ping smiled and motioned for Jia Sidao to come to the side to talk.

When the two came to the corner of the yard, Jia Sidao was no longer afraid. The two had played mahjong together before, so they had some friendship.

"The Song army outside first deceived the country, and then asked Nahe to sell his house and surrender. I can't easily agree to these two things." Li Ping said bluntly when he came up, and then stared at Jia Sidao: "Shopkeeper Jia is a smart man, he should understand what I mean. mean?"

Jia Sidao was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said decisively: "I am Jia Sidao, and my sister is the imperial concubine of the official family of the Song Dynasty."

"Ah -" Li Ping was stunned for a moment, then said overjoyed: "Okay, okay, okay."

He originally wanted to capture some Song people to negotiate with Liu Zheng outside, and then go downhill to show that he surrendered voluntarily, not being deceived, nor being persuaded by the joint sale.

Unexpectedly, the emperor's brother-in-law was in charge of such a happy event.

So after a while, Liu Zheng received news that Jia Sidao, the emperor's brother-in-law, was in Tongguan City and was in the hands of Li Ping.

Liu Zheng was stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

The following is almost the same routine. Li Ping stated that he could not kill Jia Sidao, but he could also offer the pass, but the Song army could not massacre the city when they came in, and they could not massacre my Dajin people. Then the implication was that I, Li Ping, took the initiative to offer the pass. It doesn't matter if you sell or live.

Of course Liu Zheng agreed, and the Guanzhong Fortress, which had been away from the Song Dynasty for many years, finally returned to the hands of the Song Dynasty.

Soon, Wuguan in the south received the news and immediately surrendered.

The Jin soldiers only had three fortresses left in Guanzhong: Tongguan, Jindouguan and Wuguan, which were easy to defend and difficult to attack. So far, the entire Guanzhong was owned by the Song army, but what the Song army got was the devastated Guanzhong area.

The Battle of Jinmeng left all the people in Guanzhong empty. Except for the 10,000+ people who fled into Tongguan, many other people moved to Henan.

After Liu Zheng captured Tongguan, he personally garrisoned it and moved all the 10,000+ people in Tongguan to Jingzhao Mansion (Xi'an). Only [-] troops were left in Tongguan, and the families of [-] troops would be moved in later.

Among these [-] troops, there were [-] Song troops and [-] Han troops surrendered by the Jin troops at Tongguan.

In addition, Song generals Zhang Jun and Li Ping were stationed at Wuguan, guarding two thousand troops and their families.

He Shun stationed himself at Jindou Pass, guarding two thousand troops and their families.

Song generals Liu Quan, Wang Min, and Li Boyuan were stationed in Jing Zhaofu. There were [-] Song troops and [-] surrender troops, a total of [-].

There were more surrendered troops here than the Song army. There was no way. Liu Quan brought [-] surrendered troops from the Fangcheng Mountain battlefield, and then got [-] surrendered troops at Tongguan. He left [-] in Tongguan, and the other [-] were brought to Tongguan. Jingzhao Mansion, among which the Jurchen and Khitan tribes among the Jin soldiers are all in Jingzhao Mansion.

Jingzhao Mansion was originally a large mansion. After it was destroyed by the Mongolian army, the local grain fields were wasted for more than a year.

After the people of Tongguan arrived here, Liu Quan organized the people to redistribute their fields and cultivate crops, and at the same time organized training, reorganization and surrender of the army.

At the same time, in order to stabilize the hearts of the surrendered soldiers, they followed the old trick and first allocated farmland near Jingzhao Mansion to some of the surrendered soldiers. They also promised that they would have monthly military pay and guaranteed food in the future (of course, they were fighting After retreating from the Mongolian army).

Now Fengxiang is nearby, and the Song army from Fengxiang can already support various resources of Jingzhao Mansion from Fengxiang.

The resources and population from Sichuan and Diezhou are also constantly entering the Guanzhong area.
-
In mid-December of the seventh year of Baoqing (1231).

Buzzing, as the heavy gate opened, the Mongolian army rushed into Zhengzhou City.

Wo Kuotai looked at Zhengzhou City with a gloomy face. After a moment, he waved his whip fiercely: "Send the order, no golden soldiers will be left behind."

"Wow!" The generals around him cheered almost simultaneously, and soon several messengers rushed forward.

Originally, the Mongolian army had no record of massacres after breaking through Zhengzhou, and Wo Kuotai did not agree with it, but this time he was really mad.

In November last year, in response to the mine-hauling attack, he led his army from Shanxi via Baipo, crossed the Yellow River, and attacked eastward.

On November [-], when Tuo Lei was entangled with the Song and Jin coalition forces, Wokuotai broke into Zhongjing (Luoyang) and received news from the messenger sent by Tuo Lei. At that time, Tuo Lei was heading north to attack the Jin army.

Someone in the camp suggested that he send partial troops to support the tow mine.

Historically, he ignored him in the early stage, presumably with the intention of using the golden troops to destroy the tow mine. After besieging Nanjing, he attacked for several days with no results, so he had no choice but to send Wen Buhua with [-] elite cavalry to support the tow mine, and finally assisted the tow mine. Lei defeated Wanyan Heda in Sanfeng Mountain.

It was the same this time. When Wo Kuotai got the news when he broke through Zhongjing, he did not send reinforcements immediately.

After capturing Luoyang, he continued to move his army eastward, successively defeating Mengjin, Yanshi, Gongxian, etc., and also surrendered Sishui, Heyin and others.

The journey was unstoppable. When they arrived in Zhengzhou in early December, it rained heavily. The Mongolian army took a short rest and began to attack Zhengzhou fiercely.

At the same time, Wokuotai finally sent out his sentry cavalry and took the initiative to contact the Tou Lei Army to see where the Tou Lei Army had hit.Have you killed Wanyan Heda?

The Sentinel Cavalry went out for several days to no avail. It was still difficult for the Mongolian army to find the tow mines that had been destroyed at this time in the Central Plains.

At this time, even the sentry riders sent out by Tuo Lei himself would not be able to find Tuo Lei's entire army when they returned.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Mongolian army had not yet captured Zhengzhou, and heavy rains were coming intermittently. Wo Kuotai had the intention of withdrawing his troops, bypassing Zhengzhou, and heading towards Nanjing.

At this moment, news was finally received.

The Mongolian army fought a battle with the Jin-Song coalition near Fangcheng Mountain. It seemed that they were defeated miserably, and almost the entire army was wiped out. A small number of Mongolian troops escaped over the mountain, but now they don't know where the main force of the Mongolian army is, and they are looking everywhere.

In other words, Tuo Lei is now running around in the Central Plains with some Mongolian troops like bereaved dogs, and at the same time sent out sentries to look for the main force of Wo Kuotai.

The sentinels of Wokuotai met the people sent by Tuolei, and then they learned about the battle.

When the news returned to Wokuotai, many people's first thought was to retreat.

Others shouted, go directly to fight the Song army.

The Song army acted shamelessly. They first borrowed the road and then joined forces with Jin, and then attacked Jin and Meng together. This operation shocked the Mongolian nobles.

But when Wo Kuotai heard the news, he did not retreat. He ordered the attack to continue while waiting for Tuo Lei to come over and join them.

Once the two sides have information and can communicate, they can unite their forces in one place.

A few days later, the Mongolian army finally captured Zhengzhou.

When the city fell, there was no joy in Wo Kuozhi's heart, only endless anger and shame.

The three-pronged attack on gold was completely disrupted by the Song people.

Feeling ashamed and angry, Wo Kuotai ordered to slaughter all the golden soldiers in the city and plunder all the available food and grass in the city.

"Report." At the same time that the city of Zhengzhou was destroyed, several figures rushed towards them not far away.

"Yeke Nayan is back."

"Tou Lei is back."

The generals surrounding Wokuotai all looked sideways.

The rain near Zhengzhou has just stopped for two days, and the ground is still muddy.

After a while, I saw a group of cavalry approaching feebly in the distance. There were many Mongolian troops around who did not participate in the siege and were looking at them in surprise.

This group of Mongolian cavalry was completely out of formation, the team was loose and weak, and many people were dejected and did not even dare to raise their heads.

This is rarely seen in the history of the Mongolian army. In the past, the Mongolian army would not be like this even if it was defeated.

When they approached, everyone's expressions were even more shocked. They were not the invincible elite cavalry of Mongolia. They were just a bunch of beggars.

"Driving" At this moment, Sun suddenly took a quick step and rushed straight to the front of Wokuotai.

When I jumped off the horse, I didn't know if I hadn't eaten for a few days, so I fell straight to the ground.

There were screams all around, and someone came forward to help him up.

The swaying Hu Shengsun raised his head and looked at Wo Kuotai, with an expression as if he was about to cry.

"Hehan--" Hu Shengsun said a few words quickly and simply.

The Song army first lent them a road, then deliberately gave them poor horse feed, and then attacked them together with the Jin soldiers. Finally, they attacked the Jin soldiers. The Mongolian army was defeated. More than 3 horses climbed the mountain and more than 3000 of them fled, and then some people ran away one after another. There were also deaths from injuries.

Finally, we contacted the main force of Wokuotai, and when they ran back, there were less than a thousand riders left.

After hearing this, the Mongolian nobles around them cursed the Song army again.

The news came back from the sentinels before, and they gave a general outline. Today, Sun Sheng's words came to life vividly, describing the Song Army's shamelessness like never before.

When Wokuotai heard this, he felt a sense of depression in his chest that could not be relieved. He wished he could lead the entire army to attack Lin'an now.

"There has never been such a shameless person. Zhao Yurui deceived others too much-" Wo Kuotai was furious and his face was red.

What he was angry about was not that Tuo Lei had wiped out his entire army, but that he felt Zhao Yurui was playing with him like a stupid dog.

Before he could have an attack, Su Shengsun stepped forward again and whispered: "Ye Ke Nayan is sick."

"..." Wo Kuotai.

The Fangchengshan defeat was the only defeat in Tuo Lei's life, and it was an extremely huge defeat. As the commander-in-chief, he led his men to escape first at the critical moment, which caused the entire army to collapse. It was hard to say that he had a great responsibility.

After crossing the mountain from Fangcheng Mountain, Tuo Lei felt depressed and very unhappy. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

It happened that the weather suddenly cooled down, and after entering the northwest direction, it rained continuously. Tuo Lei accidentally caught the wind and cold and couldn't afford to get sick.

Wokuotai had already thought about how to use the topic to scold Tuo Lei, and then put all the responsibility for the failure of the attack on Jin State on Tuo Lei. Unexpectedly, Tuo Lei suddenly became ill.

Wokuotai didn't believe it, so he immediately rushed to the defeated army with Chen Nayan.

In the middle of the defeated army, two war horses were struggling to drag a simple carriage, and there were several Mongolian soldiers pushing it behind the carriage.

Tuo Lei was lying on the carriage with a pale face, covered with several quilts.

Subotai's face was livid as he stood beside Tuo Lei's carriage. He first paid homage to Ogedai, and then he said nothing, just looking at Tuo Lei helplessly.

"Fourth brother." Wo Kuotai stepped forward with a nervous expression, stretched out his hand to Tuo Lei's forehead, and a trace of ecstasy quickly flashed in his eyes.

Tuo Lei's forehead was hot and his fever persisted.

"Quick, give the order to the front. After entering the city, clean up a clean big house and find the doctor immediately. Don't kill the doctor." Wo Kuotai gave the order loudly, and then he pretended to be in pain, and he held the tow mine's hand tightly. Hand: "Fourth brother, hold on, let's go back to the grassland together." In a daze, Tuo Lei moved his body slightly, then slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw Wogotai, his expression suddenly became excited.

The next moment, he tried to struggle to get up.

Suddenly, Shengsun and Subotai stepped forward to support him.

"Third brother." Tuo Lei held Wo Kuotai's hand tightly, and the two brothers burst into tears. Tuo Lei might not be sure of Wo Kuotai's mood, but Tuo Lei really looked like he wanted to cry.

"Fourth brother, lie down quickly." Wo Kuotai quickly tried to persuade him, but his mind was already thinking about how to put the blame on Tuo Lei without appearing to be ruthless and cruel.

"Third brother." Tuo Lei's voice became louder and his energy improved a lot. Wogotai was stunned by this, thinking that Tuo Lei was pretending to be ill.

"Listen to me." Tuo Lei said in pain: "The Emperor Zhao Yurui of the Song Dynasty acted shamelessly and had no bottom line. This person is a hundred times harder to deal with than Wanyan Shouxu."

"When we unite with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Song Dynasty, we must attack the Song people first."

There was shock all around. Tuo Lei had just talked about it before, but now what time?

The Mongols attacked the Jin on three fronts. They just captured Zhengzhou and wanted to kill all the Jin soldiers in Zhengzhou. Now you are talking about uniting with the Jin to destroy the Song Dynasty?Wanyan Shouxu can kill us.

"Fourth brother, don't worry, take good care of your health first. The Song people are indeed shameless. We have already recorded this account, and we will definitely not let them go -"

Wokuotai wanted to say something more, but Tuo Lei interrupted him directly: "Third brother immediately retreats the troops and sends envoy Shang He. Wanyan Shouxu will definitely agree - cough cough cough -" Tuo Lei seemed to be afraid that he would not be able to do it, so he spoke desperately. A lot of words.

"The Song Army is attacking various counties in the Jin Kingdom. If we continue to fight in Nanjing, we are helping the Song Army--"

"Soon the entire Jin Kingdom was captured by the Song people--"

"We must quickly negotiate peace and discuss the attack on Song Dynasty--"

"The Tongguan Guanzhong Fortress must not be captured by the Song army. You can send the army back all the way to capture Tongguan first as a backbone-"

Tuo Lei talked a lot intermittently, and there was silence all around. Wo Kuotai was a little impatient when he heard it. He nodded and said: "Fourth brother, don't talk anymore, go to the city and rest -"

"Cough cough cough -" Tuo Lei could not stop coughing after he said this. Wo Kuotai took the opportunity to push Tuo Lei down on the carriage again: "Quickly, send my fourth brother to the city, be careful not to catch the cold again. .”

The sergeants quickly sent Tuo Lei into the city.
Tuo Lei was anxious and looked at Subotai anxiously.

Subotai originally followed his carriage, but after walking a few steps, he turned back and said to Ogedai: "Please Hehan consider joining forces with Jin to attack Song. You can call all the ministries to discuss it together."

"I will consider it," Ogedai said solemnly.

In less than half an hour, Wo Kuotai led some nobles into Zhengzhou City.

The outskirts of Zhengzhou City have been pacified, and the Mongolian army is capturing and killing Jin soldiers in the city.

Wokuotai only said to kill the Jin soldiers, but after the Mongolian army entered, no one cared about it. They killed everyone they saw, and they still killed many people.

Although the Mongolian army had won the battle, all the nobles were uneasy.

Fang Chengshan's defeat was still a trivial matter, and Tuo Lei's final suggestion of joining forces with the Jin Dynasty to attack the Song Dynasty made everyone even more upset.

The war has reached this point, and now we want to form an alliance with the Jin Kingdom?Will Wanyan Shouxu agree?

Even if he agrees, will the Kingdom of Jin still have the strength?
Wokuotai soon came to a house and summoned most of the nobles in the army. Even Subutai was called here to discuss matters.

At this time, Tuo Lei was in another big house about a thousand steps away.

Inside and outside the courtyard were all Tuo Lei's cronies from his own headquarters, and they were all people who had followed him over the mountains from Fangcheng Mountain.

Everyone fled thousands of miles to get here, many of them were exhausted and a little drowsy.

Only the loyal Ao Tun Shiying was still awake and was on duty, personally leading more than 100 people to guard the yard inside and outside.

Aotun Shiying is very anxious now and has asked several times if there is a doctor coming outside.

However, the Mongolian army was massacred in the field, and the resistance of the Jin soldiers was not completely over. For a while, the doctors could not be found at all, and if there were any, they might be killed by the Mongolian army.

Ao Tun Shiying anxiously walked around the yard, and from time to time he would open the door to look at Tuo Lei.

Tuo Lei's condition is getting worse and worse. Aotun Shiying believes that he must find a doctor, otherwise Tuo Lei will become seriously ill.

"Report." Suddenly, a big man came in outside. He looked very similar to Aotun Shiying. It was his younger brother Aotun Baohe.

Aotun Baohe came in and said that Hehan had convened a meeting with the chiefs of ten thousand households and above to discuss the next step.

Aotun Shiying and his younger brother Aotun Baohe were both granted ten thousand households by Genghis Khan at the same time, and they all had to go to the meeting.

Aotun Shiying was stunned for a moment, then said: "You go to discuss the matter, I want to watch Ye Ke's face."

The younger brother Aotun Baohe's expression changed slightly. Brother, are you disobeying the order?
"Yeke Nayan is so sick, how can he not be cared for by anyone?" Aotun Shiying said sternly.

Then he said, if Hehan asks, just say that I am also sick.

Otun had no choice but to bite the bullet and leave first.

As soon as I walked through the gate, I saw O Chen Nayan and a big man wearing a black turban.

Both sides were taken aback.

Orchen Nayan said, this is Chiduhe, the son of Huoerchi, a shaman in the army. The Jin Dynasty officials have not found him yet, so Hehan asked Chiduhe to come and see Tuolei first.

Otun Baohe looked suspicious, with a look of respect on his face.

The Mongols attach great importance to shamans.

Chiduhe's father and teacher are both famous shamans.

His father is Huo Erchi.

After Temujin and Jamuka separated, Horchi told Temujin that the god had instructed him in his dream that a white cow knocked over Jamuka's tent and car with its horns, and another strong bull knocked over Jamuka's tent and car with its horns. The bullock pulled the bottom stake of the tent and roared: Heaven (Tenggri) has decreed that Temujin will be the king.Then he said: "Temujin! This is the revelation of the gods. If you become the master of a country, what will you give me?" Temujin promised him that at that time, he would command 1 people. He selected 30 people among the most beautiful women and listened carefully to his advice.

His teacher was Kuokuo Chu, the Mongolian Tongtian Shaman. It was Kuo Kuo Chu who coined the word Genghis Khan.

Kuokuochu was very prestigious and powerful in Mongolia at that time. Even Temujin looked down upon him at his peak. In order to consolidate his royal power, Temujin had no choice but to kill Kuokuochu. This was also a famous dispute between the theocracy and the kingship in Mongolia.

Before the Mongols left their own grasslands, shamans were responsible for dealing with birth, old age, sickness and death in the tribe.

Although Otun Baohe didn't believe it, he didn't dare to say anything. The two sides said hello, and Ochen Nayan entered the courtyard with Chi Duhe. Along with Ochen Nayan, there were ten elite Mongolian soldiers who followed him.

Otun Baohe came to his senses only after he walked out of the courtyard. The ten Mongolians seemed to be the elite troops around Ogedai, the cowardly Xue army guarding the Great Khan.

However, he didn't care about this and hurriedly went to participate in the discussion.

In the courtyard, Aotun Shiying and Ao Chen Nayan had just met.

"Aotun Shiying didn't go to discuss the matter?" O Chen Nayan asked strangely.

Didn't you go too?Aotun Shiying muttered in his heart, but on the surface he was still polite: "I am also feeling a little unwell, and Yoke Nayan needs to be taken care of, so I have asked my brother to apologize to Hehan."

Orchen Nayan gave him a meaningful look, turned around and pointed at Chiduhe, and briefly introduced him, saying that he was here to help Tuo Lei with his medical treatment.

"Is there no doctor in the city?" Aotun Shiying asked urgently.

"The Jin soldiers in the city are still resisting everywhere, and the troops are in chaos everywhere. The doctor can't be found yet." Orchen smiled bitterly.

Aotun Shiying is a Jurchen and doesn't believe in the Mongols, but she doesn't know what to say.

While he was still thinking about it, Ochen Nayan had already strode to the ground floor with Chi Duhe.

"Wait a minute." Aotun Shiying was so anxious that he jumped in front of the door.

"?" Orchen Nayan looked at him in disbelief.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

There were people who were dragging thunder in the courtyard, and there were also ten timid Xue soldiers brought by Chen Nayan.

In unison, both sides slowly put their hands on their weapons.

An inexplicable chilling aura suddenly filled the air.

Most of the people in the yard were people dragging mines, and there were far more people than those on the other side, but Otun Juying was sweating profusely and did not dare to talk nonsense.

His mind was spinning rapidly. If he dared to say a random word at this moment, Mongolia might change drastically.

Now that the Mongolian army had just suffered a disastrous defeat at the hands of the Song army, it was obvious that they could not cause internal trouble.

"Otun Shiying, what are you thinking?" Orchen Nayan said angrily: "Hehan kindly asked the shaman to help drag Lei. What do you mean?"

"No, it's not -" Aotun Shiying stammered. He took a deep look at Ochen Nayan and Chi Duhe, and finally ducked away. Then he said, "Wait a minute, I'll go in and ask Yoke Nayan. "

Orchen Nayan snorted coldly and stood outside the door.

Aotun Shiying opened the door, and there were two Jin women captured nearby. He drove the women away roughly and looked down at Tuo Lei.

Tuo Lei just broke out in a sweat and his face seemed to be getting better.

Perhaps hearing voices outside, Tuo Lei slowly opened his eyes.

Aotun Shiying felt that Tuo Lei seemed to be recovering from his illness, so he whispered about what was going on outside.

Tuo Lei still believed in the shaman, so after hearing the words, he said, let them come in.

Aotun Shiying had no choice but to let Aochen, Nayan and Chidu join in.

He stood on the edge and opened his eyes wide to see what Chiduhe was doing.

Chi Duhe looked at Tuo Lei and said that Tuo Lei was infected with wind and cold, so he just needed to drive away the cold.

After that, he asked someone to find a bowl, recited some incomprehensible spells, and after some weird operations, he made a bowl of so-called talisman water.

Ao Tun Shiying was stunned, feeling completely like a charlatan, but he couldn't speak.

Chidu worked together and finally handed it to Chen Nayan.

Ochen Nayan handed it to Aotun Shiying.

Aotun Shiying was holding the talisman water, his eyes widened. He looked at Tuo Lei for a while, then at O ​​Chen and Yan. He didn't believe it and wanted to pour it directly on the ground.

But Tuo Lei reached out to him at this time, motioning for him to take it over.

In desperation, Aotun Shiying walked over and whispered: "Yike Nayan--"

Tuo Lei shook his head, reached out to take the talisman water, and drank it slowly.
