Chapter 1672 Death of Tuo Lei

Chapter 1670: The Death of Tuo Lei

After Yelu Chucai went to the palace, he immediately reported with a sad face: "Your Majesty, the humble minister is incompetent. Although he can persuade all the ministers of the big Han, he cannot persuade the scheming Jia Xu."

Hearing this, Tuo Lei's heart suddenly hung up, and he frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

"The Qin army is now under the attack of the Han Dynasty. The Han court is worried that it will offend our country. Most people agree that His Highness the Crown Prince will return to the country."

"Isn't this pretty good?" Tuo Lei asked puzzled.

"But it's useless for them to agree. Mr. Jia Xu firmly opposes it." Yelu Chucai said bitterly.

In fact, Yelu Chucai's trip this time was far more exciting than the few words he said. Although the Luoyang court officials were worried that Yuan Meng would be offended if he refused, they were not worried that Yuan Meng would be killed because of this. Anger and raise troops.

Yuan Meng paid the big man so much war indemnity, and in order to repel the Manchu Qing, he even wiped out his domestic background. This is also known to the big man.

Therefore, most of the officials in the court, headed by Kong Rong and Wang Lang, did not believe in Yuan Meng and dared to send troops to invade.

Faced with such a situation, Yelu Chucai was in power and fought against the Han officials alone.

Yelu Chucai first stated that after two years of repairing, Yuanmeng's strength has not yet recovered, but it still has the strength to send troops, and the Luoyang court is facing a pincer attack from the Han Dynasty.

Such a statement made those ministers who believed that Yuan Meng dared not send troops feel awe-inspiring, and never dared to believe that Yuan Meng would not dare to send troops to commit crimes.

Afterwards, Yelu Chucai said again that Kublai Khan was returning home to visit his mother in order to fulfill his filial piety, and no big man should stop him, no matter how emotional or reasonable he is...

Yelu Chucai was very eloquent. When the court was fighting with the courtiers, Kong Rong, Wang Lang and others were speechless. Most of the courtiers also changed their attitudes. They felt that it was not worthwhile to offend Yuan Meng at this time, and they all agreed to let Kublai Khan go. Return home to visit mother.

But just like the Yuanmeng pigeon faction, the words of the Luoyang court officials did not matter, even if they all agreed, but as long as Jia Xu disagreed, Kublai Khan would not be able to return home safely.

Yelu Chucai came with a mission, so even if he was facing Jia Xu, he still argued hard, but it didn't work out.

Jia Xu's eyesight is so precise, he can see at a glance that Yuan Meng has a different heart, and this time he pretended to let Kublai go back in the name of visiting a doctor, because he didn't want to leave hostages and be threatened.

In the past, Jia Xu thought that Tuo Lei could be regarded as a hero, but when it came time to fight, he would never care about the life of a mere son.

However, through the fact that Emperor Yuan sent important officials to ask for Kublai Khan, Jia Xu realized that Tuo Lei still cared about Kublai Khan very much. As long as Kublai Khan was in hand, Tuo Lei might not dare to attack him.

Jia Xu used this as a breakthrough point, insisting that Queen Yuanmeng's critical illness was an excuse, and bluntly said that if Yuanmeng sent troops to attack, the Qin army would definitely kill Kublai Khan to sacrifice the flag.

Yelu Chucai asked himself that his eloquence was okay, but when he met Jia Xu, who was not good at it, he really had no choice but to return home disappointed, to prove that Yuan Meng had no intention of going to war against the Qin army.

"Jia Xu is the uncle of King Qin Hao, who holds a high position and real power in the court. It is precisely because of his opposition that this trip will fail." Yelu Chucai said bitterly.

"Hmph, this old Jia Xu, really deserves to die."

Tuo Lei's eyes were full of anger, and he said in a cold voice: "In the future, if I, Da Yuan, can avenge my shame, when Luoyang is conquered, I will definitely tear this old man apart."

The reason why Tuo Lei was so angry was that Jia Xu had taken advantage of his weakness. As long as Kublai Khan did not come back for a day, even if the Qin army was really defeated, he would not dare to send troops.

But without sending troops and defeating the Qin army, how can we wash away the national humiliation?

For a while, Tuo Lei couldn't help but fall into a dilemma, hesitating between his son and the country.

"Fortunately, the Qin army is still strong. He was not defeated in Hebei. With the outcome unclear, I can no longer send troops. Naturally, I don't have to be in a dilemma."

Tuo Lei thought to himself, then looked at the ministers below, and ordered: "Although the Qin army fought against the two Hans at the same time, it was not defeated, and on the contrary, it was about to defeat the Northern Han. This shows that Qin Hao's strength is not exhausted. It is the best time to send troops to attack Qin, and I, Da Yuan, still need to wait for the opportunity to accumulate strength."

"Your Majesty is wise." All the officials of the Dove Faction said in unison.

"I object."

Mao Dun stood up and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, the population gap between our country and the Han people is doomed that no matter how much our country saves, it will be difficult to overtake Qin in national strength, not to mention that Qin Hao will never give me Dayuan overtake Chance.

Now, the Qin army is at war with the Han Dynasty at the same time, it is the time when the military strength is tight, and this is also a golden opportunity for Dayuan to avenge the blood and national humiliation. If you miss it, it will be too late to regret it. "

As soon as Maodun's words came out, all the officials of the Eagle Faction responded one after another, shouting in unison: "What King Maodun said is true, please Your Majesty to send troops to attack Qin."

Tuo Lei naturally understands these reasons, but as long as the Qin army is undefeated and Yuan Meng sends troops, he will completely offend Qin. Once Qin cannot be destroyed, Yuan Meng will be the one who will be destroyed.

It is natural to be cautious when seeking for the country. Tuo Lei is not willing to take this risk, not to mention his son Kublai Khan is still a hostage in Luoyang.

"Modun, with the Qin army's victory in Qingbei, the situation in Hebei has been tilted towards the Qin army. Even if I send troops to attack Qin at this time, I may not be able to defeat the Qin army."

Tuo Lei said that he wanted Mao Dun to give up his plan to attack Qin, but Mao Dun's determination exceeded his expectations.

"Your Majesty, you must know that when the Qin army only managed to unite the four regions of Jinghe, the military strength of the Qin army has already far surpassed our Dayuan. If we occupy Hebei again, our Dayuan may never have any chance to overtake.

Therefore, when the Qin army is defeated, I, Da Yuan, will send troops to carve up Qin.

Qin Jun wins, Dayuan should send troops, together with the Han princes, to prevent Qin Jun from continuing to grow. "

As soon as Mao Dun finished speaking, soldiers entered the hall and reported: "Your Majesty, there was a change in the battle of Julu. Su Lie and Li Jing attacked from east to west, defeated Lian Po, and the [-] Zhao army was wiped out."

"what?"

All the ministers of Yuan Meng exclaimed, and the officials of the dove faction even objected to sending troops in unison.

"Ugh……"

After seeing this, Tuo Lei sighed, and asked Mao Dun below, "After Julu's defeat, the battle in Hebei will be powerless. Mao Dun, do you still insist on sending troops to attack Qin now?"

Mao Dun gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty, I still say the same thing, if the Qin army is defeated, my Dayuan will send troops, if the Qin army wins, my Dayuan will send troops even more."

"Humph."

Hearing this, Tuo Lei's complexion suddenly changed, and after a cold snort, he said, "Modun, I see that you have been dazzled by hatred, have you thought about the consequences of sending troops?"

　At the second watch, the guarantee owed yesterday has been repaid.
