Chapter 894 The beast is not with the lamb
"I will never form an alliance with Li Xia."

"There are Hedan, Aluhu, and Li Xia in the east. Father Khan has to ally with one of them before he can fight the other two. Of these three, Hedan is Kublai Khan's dog, and Aluhu betrayed Father Khan."

"No." Brother Ali expressed his attitude very firmly, and said: "What I want to do is to occupy Kuoduan Ulus, get the support of Tubo, and then snatch Li Xia and Song Kingdom, fatten horses, cattle and sheep, and send them from the West Attack Kaiping online and win back the support of the kings..."

Mingli Timur said: "However, if Ahuru and Li Xia form an alliance, we will not be able to occupy Kuodan Ulus."

"Ahuru has already surrendered to Kublai Khan and will not do so."

"How much loyalty can he betray his father Khan to Kublai Khan? The purpose is to keep his Ulus, and he will cooperate with whoever can help him take back the Ili River Basin." Mingli Timur persuaded: " In my opinion, we can either go west and contact Brother Bie Er to attack Xu Liewu together, or go east and join forces with Li Xia to attack Aluhu."

Brother Ali's face darkened.

In the current situation, it is even more impossible for him to attack Xu Liewu, so he can only go east.However, Mingli Timur was right.

He shook his head, but still muttered: "I will never form an alliance with Li Xia, I will only defeat him and take his wealth and food..."

In Brother Ali's eyes, the Han people are the objects he wants to be burned, killed and looted, and they are the spoils to be distributed to his supporters behind him.

How could the beast be with the lamb?How can it be allied with food?
but,
For a moment, Brother Ali looked back and realized that he had been abandoned by the herd.

……

If there was a person from the Song Dynasty here, he would be completely unable to understand how a Mongolian Khan's military power of more than [-] troops could be lost at will.

This is the complete difference between the Mongolian system and the Han system.

The Great Mongol Kingdom is composed of kings and tribal chiefs. Although Genghis Khan transformed these tribes into thousands and thousands of households, it is still loose and not centralized enough.

The Great Khan is not an emperor, and the Great Khan does not hold the soldiers and horses of the world.

The more than [-] troops that came to Ili vigorously were originally the tribes of the kings. The herdsmen brought women and children. They could fight when they got on horses, and graze when they dismounted. Even women and children could hunt.

This is why the Mongols can easily assemble a large number of troops and quickly travel thousands of miles.

The Mongolian Khan does not need to manage herdsmen, does not need to manage the army, and does not have to worry about food and supplies.

This is an advantage that the Han army will never have.

But the Mongolian army is not entirely owned by the Great Khan. The Great Khan just summoned the kings to discuss "Which place should we carve up next?"

Even who will be the Great Khan was discussed with the kings.

The so-called "Kublai Khan betrayed the Great Mongol Kingdom" was not because Kublai Khan believed in Buddhism or Confucianism, but because he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor without discussing with the kings.

Kublai Khan would definitely pass the Khan throne or the throne to his son.

This is against the will of too many members of the Golden Family!

Therefore, the kings supported Ali Buge.

With their support, the 20, [-] troops in Mobei, and even the millions of troops of the Mongolian Kingdom can belong to Brother Ali.

The question is, how much benefit can Brother Ali promise to them, and how much benefit can he realize?

For more than five years, Ali Bokehan promised that the Great Mongolian Congress will continue to expand and plunder like in the past.All the kings can entrust more land like Jochi, Chagatai, Batu, and Aluhu... chatting nonsense.

Unable to expand, in order to win the support of the kings, Brother Alibu, the Great Khan, had to spend countless gold to bribe them in the past five years.

The same is true for Kublai Khan, the two Khans have actually been using gold to buy people's hearts.

Brother Ali had no choice but to rob Aluhu because there was not as much gold as Kublai Khan.

But when Aluhu finished robbing, and the kings had enough to eat and drink, seeing that you Alibu had no more benefits to give, he turned around and decided to support the richer and more powerful Kublai Khan.

Grab military power?
There is no military power to grab, Brother Ali only has [-] yuan, including Aulu, that is, women and children.Only these are his true confidantes...

Song people can't understand these.

Song Ting also counted on the battle for the position of Khan, that is, two Khans fought each other, 10, [-], [-], [-], [-]... It was expected that the Mongolian warriors would fight to the death, consume, and then pick up a Khan like supporting the emperor. Big deal.

It seems that the Mongolian kings would sacrifice themselves and sacrifice their tribes in order to support Ali Bukor or Kublai Khan.

It seems that Brother Ali lost Hara and Lin in one fell swoop, and one hundred thousand troops in one fell swoop, it is really useless.

The institutional environment is different, and there is no comparison at all. The battle for the throne of the Han people is a battle for the rule of law, and the battle for the throne of the Mongols is a division of spoils.

It is meaningless to stare at who the capital of Hara and Lin belongs to, and who has more troops.

The battle for the position of Khan depends on who the hearts of the kings are for.

If you don't understand Mongolia, and don't look at this benefit distribution system, you will only think that the kings of Mongolia are fools, but it is this group of fools who occupy a vast territory unprecedented in history.

In fact, Aribu’s thinking has always been very clear.

"According to the Mongolian system, you, Kublai Khan, must come back to attend the Khuriltai Assembly. This is absolute. The Golden Family will never tolerate your claiming to be Khan without discussion."

"How...how dare you not come back? Betray the Golden Family and fight against the kings by yourself? You have no way out."

"..."

"The powerful kings of the Golden Family were defeated by Kublai Khan's Qixue and the Han Dynasty Marquis? Because of the long-distance raid, they were idled for work? And the cunning Shi Tianze unexpectedly attacked the flank. Helachar has not fought for too long and turned into a waste Is it?! Lachar, the trash!"

"We have to wait until the fattened horses and cattle and sheep come again. With the support of the gold family, we will be able to... what? The kings received Kublai Khan's gold in private?! How could they do this?! We agreed to stick to the old Mongolian system together .”

"Hey, there is no other way, I can only give gold to the kings to win them over, otherwise they will turn to Kublai Khan. It is too uncertain to beat Kublai Khan again with the kings like this, but compared to governance, how can grazing compare Got farming? You can only grab it, but there is nowhere to grab it in Mobei, alas, wait for Kublai Khan to make a mistake."

"It's been five years, and the gold family's support is getting less and less, and the gold is also getting less and less. Give Aluhu a position in exchange, and in exchange, Aluhu should hand over his wealth... What? Aluhu betrayed?"

"I can only take the kings to rob Aluhu... Sure enough, the kings also betrayed me. This is the Golden Family."

After Brother Ali decided to stick to the old Mongolian system, he actually did not make any mistakes.

He was wrong from the very beginning, he believed in a group of Zongwang who appeared to be very powerful, but in fact they were already rich and rich, and believed that the actions of his ancestors would definitely make him win.

It was the kings of the Golden Family who opposed Kublai Khan most fiercely, instigated and supported him to fight against Kublai Khan, but they rebelled first.

It's not that Brother Ali is stupid, he is already one of the most outstanding kings in Mobei of the Golden Family.

In terms of intellect, in terms of martial prowess, he cannot be compared to him in a hundred guiyus.

Even Guiyou's profuse sweat who is dictated by his mother and wife can lead the Mongolian Kingdom to prosperity...it was in the period of expansion.

Up to now, not only the enthusiasm of the Mongols for expansion is fading, but also the population and wealth of the world are decreasing.Moreover, Brother Aribu was surrounded in the hinterland of the Great Mongolia.

If his fiefs were exchanged with Kublai Khan, he might still be able to get compensation from Song... maybe.

For the time being, let’s not mention the dense rivers and rivers in the Huaihe River and the heavy mountain fortifications in Sichuan and Shu, and let’s not mention that the Kingdom of Jin once wanted to compensate the Song Dynasty, and let’s not mention Mengge’s death in Diaoyu City.At least there is an expansion direction.

Maybe Brother Ali could razed the entire Han land to grasslands, established a country like Hulagu, and was canonized as a Monan Khanate.

It's a pity that he can only bring a group of reluctant kings to fight, and compete with Kublai Khan for governance, wealth, and winning people's hearts.

In the end, the group of Zongwang patted their buttocks and said, "The Great Khan is right, it is more comfortable for us to sit down and collect taxes."

And this "Khan" already refers to Kublai Khan.

After all, although Kublai Khan proclaimed himself emperor and changed the name of the country, the Mongols still called him "Great Khan" and called Dayuan the "Great Mongol Kingdom". Kublai Khan never changed these, and they were used together.

……

It is the trend of history to stop expansion and turn chaos into governance.

It is an inevitable result that the loose old Mongolian system and bandit thinking, which represented the expansion of the horse, was defeated by the Han system and the emperor's thinking, which represented the dismounting of the horse and more centralized power.

~~
"The ancestral book is flexible, and the Chinese law is attached."

Brother Ali was thinking about it, looked up at Changshengtian, and sighed.

This horoscope was said by Kublai Khan.

Talking about the great Genghis Khan is no longer good, now it is time to get off the horse and rule the world.If the people of the world want peace, then there will be no war anyway, so there is no need to discuss the position of the Great Khan or the Emperor. From now on, it will all be assumed by my descendants of Kublai Khan.As for you Zongwang, you can collect taxes and release lambs with peace of mind...

All the kings care about their ass ancestors, all the kings only care about profit!Benefit!Benefit!
In the final analysis, whoever can give more benefits is right.

For a moment, Brother Ali wanted to surrender.

He is Kublai Khan's compatriot brother, why let those useless kings go to claim fiefs and continue to enjoy themselves?
It is said that Kublai Khan betrayed the Golden Family, but now that the Golden Family has betrayed him, Brother Alibu, what is there to argue about?
However, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his heart, thinking that with the gloomy temperament of the fourth child, he wondered if he would harm himself in the future like Wo Kuotai killed Abu?

Otherwise, what should I do, I can't really form an alliance with Li Xia, can I?

Brother Ali looked to the east, as if seeing Kublai Khan's power cracking a crack like a rock... that was the crack Li Xia smashed.

He then dismissed the idea of ​​surrender.

Huimeng still plundered this aside, he wanted to go to the east.

Because of his decision, the direction of history seems to be pushed a little further at this moment...

~~
"Hahaha, kill these despicable perverts."

"The Great Khan has an order to accept the surrender of these Semu people."

"..."

Desuam knelt on the ground, blood was dripping twenty steps in front of him, and several herdsmen were lying on the ground with their heads in their hands and weeping bitterly.

At this time, the Mongolian soldiers on the opposite side suddenly stopped the slaughter.

Fortunately, they survived the butcher's knife.

In this way, Desu'am was brought in front of Brother Aribu, and he tried hard to keep his eyes straight, not to look at the pool of blood and corpses all over the place.

"Great Khan, please accept us pious slaves..."

Brother Alibu drove forward, looked at Desuamu coldly, and said, "You shot and killed Ben Khan's cowardly Xue Qianhu."

Desu Amu quickly knelt down and said, "The ignorant herdsman Desu Amu..."

"Tell Ben Khan, where did the despicable traitor Aluhu flee?"

"Khotan." Desu Amu replied respectfully, "I heard that Aluhu led the remnant army and fled to Khotan."

"Where is Khotan?"

"On the southern edge of the Taklamakan Desert..."

Brother Alibu scolded: "Do you think Ben Khan can't cross the desert?!"

"Don't dare, dare not, the iron hooves of the Great Khan can travel to every corner of the world, as long as the Great Khan is willing." Desuam said: "I will never dare to deceive the Great Khan."

Brother Ali was not unwilling to go to the desert, but worried that Desu'am was lying to him.

"Tell me about Khotan."

"Yes, Khotan is one of the four Anxi towns in the Tang Dynasty. The king is the Yuchi clan. Karahan destroyed the Yuchi clan 200 years ago and established the country in Khotan. Karakhan is of the same clan as our Gaochang Uyghurs, but they have attacked us several times. Of course , now we are all subjects of the Great Mongol Kingdom..."

Under the introduction of Desu Amu, Brother Ali probably understood the current situation of Aluhu.

He is not afraid of the desert, but it is obvious that Khotan is barren, not as good as Liangzhou, let alone Guanlong.

"Do you know how to bypass Bieshabali to Liangzhou?"

"If you want to bypass Bieshabali and head east, you can only go through the desert, great sweat."

"Being Ben Khan's guide, you will be Ben Khan's thousands of households in the future." Ali Buge said: "Mingli Timur, give him a silver tiger charm."

Desu'am quickly thanked him.

Mingli Timur threw a silver tiger talisman in front of him, and said: "The warriors who share the cattle and sheep with the Great Khan. Take your people and follow the Great Khan to plunder pastures with more water and grass..."

~~
A big fire ignited, and the village that hadn't had a war in a hundred years was burned.

The corpses, farmland, and fruit trees were shrouded in billowing black smoke.

The cattle and sheep were driven away, and the Uighurs who lost their homes became guides and warriors, leading their sweat to the southeast.

No one asked Desuam how he was feeling.

This is a world where the strong are respected, he can only feel honored...
