Chapter 891 Robber's Mind

Chapter 891 Robber's Mind

Ali Mari.

"Alima" means "apple" in Turkic, and Alimari actually means "Apple City".

It is located in the northwest of the Ili River Valley, with the Tianshan Mountains in the north and the Ili River in the south. It is an important town on the northern route of the Silk Road.

More than 40 years ago, Qiu Chuji passed Alimali when he met Genghis Khan, and wrote "Journey to the West of Changchun Real Man" describing what he saw and heard along the way. According to him, you can reach Alimali by heading south along Sailimu Lake. .

In the fifth year of Alibuge Khan in the Great Mongolian Kingdom, March [-]th.

Ali Boke has been stationed in Ali Mali for half a month.

He knew that once he left, Hara and Lin would not be able to hold on, so he simply rushed out and led all the Mongolian kings, troops, and herdsmen who supported him, more than [-] people, to attack Aluhu.

Aluhu is the grandson of Chagatai, and he was originally sent by Alibu to inherit the Chagatai Khanate because he supported Brother Alibu.

Unexpectedly, after Aluhu recruited the so-called 15 troops, he was dissatisfied with Brother Ali, and turned to Kublai Khan in order to stand on his own.

As soon as Ali Boke's army arrived, he defeated Aluhu without difficulty.

Over the years, Brother Ali missed several opportunities to defeat Kublai Khan, and he seemed arrogant and reckless when he was constantly being compared with Kublai Khan.

Anyone who was disappointed in him among the Mongols could taunt him casually, as if anyone could easily stomp brother Aribu on the ground.

Aruhu is like this.

He heard too much from Kublai Khan's envoy, and also from Haidu's envoy, so he really regarded Brother Ali as a waste.

But at least in the Western Regions at this time, Brother Ali is the Great Khan of Mongolia... This is what Aluhu preached two years ago.

Seeing the fertile scene of the Ili River Basin, the Mongolian iron cavalry who came from Hara and Lin's expedition were full of fighting spirit, and quickly defeated the army mobilized by Aluhu.

In this battle, Brother Ali's trick to win is also very simple, looting.

This is the key to the continuous victory of the Mongolian army for decades, siege cities and land, plunder wantonly, and use wealthy women to inspire the morale of the soldiers.

Only this time it was the so-called Mongolian Khan who presumptuously plundered his own people.

But in the next half month, Brother Ali has been stationed in Ali Mali, and has no further plans.

One day, he was drinking with Yulong Dashi in the big tent, when a messenger sent a letter from Li Xia.

The messengers were three Mongols, all of whom were captured by Li Xia on the battlefield. They knelt aside and waited after handing over the letter respectfully.

Brother Ali opened the letter and saw that it was written in Chinese characters. He was very upset and ordered someone to find an interpreter.

He sat in front of the campfire drinking wine and waited for a long time before one came.

This is a Uyghur man who can understand Chinese characters and speak Mongolian. Brother Ali didn't know him either. He threw the letter away, waved the wine bag in his hand, and said, "Read it to Ben Khan, and see that tiger stabbing the sea and handing it over again." What news has come."

"Tiger stabbing the sea" is Alibu's derogatory name for Li Xia, which means "little thief".

In his opinion, Meng Ge was assassinated by Kublai Khan, and Li Xia was a shameless thief who took this opportunity to steal all places in Sichuan and Shaanxi.

Cowardly and incompetent Han Chinese who are as cowardly and incompetent as lambs, who are only worthy of prostrate at the feet of the Mongols, dare to write letters again and again, trying to curry favor with the successor of the great Genghis Khan, the truly noble Khan of the Great Mongolian Kingdom.

Li Xia handed over the information about Meng Ge's death. In Brother Ali's eyes, Li Xia was not only a thief, but also a sycophant.

"Speak to the Great Khan...he said in the letter that if the Great Khan is willing to form an alliance with him, he can help to attack Kublai Khan. Later, the Great Khan can occupy the territories of Belge and Hulagu in the west, and he... The Great Khan divides... half of the territory of the Great Mongolian Kingdom. If the Great Khan is desperate in the future, he can also go for refuge..."

"Evil evil! Evil evil!"

Already in a rage, Brother Ali dropped the wine bag in his hand in an instant, got up and threw himself in front of the interpreter, snatching the letter back.

"hiss……"

The letter was torn to shreds.

Brother Alibou turned his head and stared fiercely at the three messengers who had delivered the letter.

"Kill them and feed their bodies to my sea holly."

"Great Khan, please forgive me, we did not surrender to the Han people..."

The three messengers begged for mercy, but they were dragged out in an instant, and then they screamed a few times.

The interpreter was kicked out of the big tent, Brother Ali took a few steps angrily, and suddenly slapped a Uighur girl sitting in the tent heavily on the face.

"Play Yatok!"

Half of the girl's face was red and swollen from the beating, and her eyes were filled with tears, but she still bounced her Yatok immediately.

The sound of string music could not soothe Brother Ali's irritability. He kicked down a maid again in hatred, and then cursed: "A lowly Han is worthy of talking about an alliance with me. This is an insult to the Golden Family! Insult... ..."

He was 45 years old at the time, tall and strong, but his temper was very impetuous.

On the contrary, Yulong Dashi who was sitting there was much quieter even though he was only 22 years old.

Yulong Dashi is Meng Ge's third son and also Meng Ge's favorite son.

If Mengge hadn't died suddenly, the Mongolian Khan's position should have been his.But when the news of the Battle of Diaoyu City came, Yulong had no choice but to give up his position and support Brother Ali instead.

This is difficult for Han Chinese to understand.

But this is the case in Mongolia. It is the Khuriltai Assembly that determines the ownership of the Khan, and whoever can convince the crowd is the Great Khan.

At that time Mengge died suddenly, Hulagu was on the west expedition, Kublai Khan was on the south expedition, and among the four sons of the Tuo Lei family, only Brother Ali was in Ala and Lin, so of course he was the most convincing.

"Sweat!"

These years, Yulong Dashi has always called Brother Ali in this way.

He stopped the furious Brother Ali, and said, "It's just a lowly Han, not worthy of Khan's anger. But Li Xia is right about one thing, where is Khan going next?"

"Of course, wait until the horses, cattle and sheep are strong, and fight back to Hara and Lin."

Yulong couldn't hear the answer and was very dissatisfied.

In fact, both he and Brother Ali knew very well that with Brother Ali's financial management ability, it was unlikely to reverse the gap with Kublai Khan.

"Great Khan." Yulong Dashi had to remind: "Xu Liewu has already accused you of being the one who rebelled, and he wants to support Kublai Khan's ascension to the throne of Khan..."

It was clear what he meant.

It is impossible for Brother Alibu to plunder the Ili River Basin in this way to gain a foothold in this stable force. When Kublai Khan, Aluhu, and even Hulagu attack together, the situation will be very bad.

"Li Xia's letter reminded us that of course it is impossible for us to form an alliance with him. But now that we can't defeat Kublai Khan, we can contact Li Xia to contain Kublai Khan, and then go west to contact Haidu and Bie Erge to occupy Xu Lie... "

"No!"

Before the word "wu" was finished, Brother Ali had flatly refused.

He knew very well that he could not be Hulagu's opponent.

If he wanted to go west to fight Hulagu, he would rather face Kublai Khan.

In his opinion, Kublai Khan, who likes to use Han people, has only a bunch of trash under his command.

"Big Khan, Hulagu is now at odds with Belge, fighting like mad dogs in Telek River."

"I will not give up the Ulus left to me by the great Genghis Khan, and I will not give up Hara and Lin to the traitor Kublai Khan."

"But how does the Great Khan want to defeat him?"

Brother Ali said: "I can enter Jingzhao Mansion..."

He walked to the map, raised his hand and swiped around.

It was a very crude map.

Yulong lost his gaze and looked, but his eyes lit up.

"Detour to rob Li Xia, and then enter Kublai Khan's hinterland from the west? Good! It's a good idea, then give the order immediately?!"

"Do not."

Ali Boke once again flatly refused.

Thinking of Li Xia's letter, he paced a few steps irritably.

"Li Xia, the little thief, is already on guard, and the vanguard of Hedan is stuck in the way. Now is not a good time."

Yulong was taken aback for a while, and asked, "Then when will we wait?"

"I have left Hara and Lin far away, just to make Kublai Khan and Li Xia fight again."

"Will it?" Yulong was very puzzled when he answered, "But I think Kublai Khan will definitely win the position first..."

"Yes." Brother Ali took another sip from the wine bag, and said with certainty: "Wait, Monan will fight again."

Yulong Dashi remembers that it was the same back then... Brother Ali could have made up his mind to go to war with Kublai Khan earlier, but he insisted on inviting Kublai Khan back to Hara and Lin with anticipation.

Brother Ali also thinks that this method is very clever.

He said that "in order to hold the funeral of Mengge Khan, all the kings of the clan must come", and Kublai Khan could not refuse at all, otherwise he would lose his prestige.

The results of it?Kublai Khan's lost prestige has been regained bit by bit in the past five years.

And the opportunity he lost, Brother Ali, will never come back.

Yulong couldn't tell whether Brother Ali was arrogant or cowardly, or whether he just liked to wait.

He looked around at the fine wine, beauties, and all the delicious food in the big tent, and he understood a little... Only when the consumption was exhausted, Brother Ali would pick the weakest opponent to rob.

When applying the idea of ​​​​Khan to analyze Brother Ali, many things can't be understood, but once you analyze it from the standpoint of a robber, what he did will suddenly become clear.

Yulong Dashi suddenly understood why Aluhu chose to join Kublai Khan.

"Khan is right."

He responded like this, went out of the big tent, and found his elder brother Asotai and younger brother Xiriji who were also indulging in sex.

"Listen to me, Brother Ali is finished, I mean, find the jade seal of the father Khan, surrender to Kublai Khan..."

~~
At the same time, a Mongolian cavalry was marching towards Bieshabali.

He Dan took out a piece of meat from under the saddle and chewed it. Looking at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, he suddenly felt something.

"When I was conquering Shu with Brother Meng Khan, I walked the Hexi Corridor from Bieshabali to Liupan Mountain, and it took me less than half a month. This time I came from the grassland, but it has been three months?"

Yeluzhu said: "When Alibuge's rebellion is settled, King Zong will be able to lead his troops from Bieshabali to Liupanshan."

At this point, he smiled, and said again: "Of course, there will be troops who surrendered from brother Alibu under his command at that time."

"How did the prime minister determine that Brother Ali would surrender?"

"Three generations of Khans have occupied the most extensive territory. The era of conquering the world on horseback has passed. Now it is more about the ability to govern the world. Ali Boke plundered the Yili River Basin, but there is no next place to plunder. Will only be betrayed by everyone."

He Dan nodded, but after a while, he turned his head and looked east.

"Maybe he can go and rob Li Xia?"

"If he can last until then, that's fine." Yeluzhu said calmly, without turning his head, "Yesheng Zongwang will lead troops to attack Hexi..."
