Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 539 The Last Tranquility Before the Rainstorm

Naturally, this is not some "witchcraft", but the strange number technique left by Zhuge Qingyun's ancestor Zhuge Kongming.

The direction of the river is deduced, and the four seasons change.Then some man-made methods were used to form a "barrier lake", and then some special methods were used to make the water of the Yellow River clear and the Cyclops man to appear in the world.

Just as Li Qingwei expected, the appearance of the one-eyed stone man caused a shock in the whole northern Han land.

In addition to the previous nursery rhyme "Mo Daoshi has one eye, stirring up rebellion in the Yellow River world".

Kublai Khan sitting firmly in Bianjing, and Empress Dowager Mazhen in the golden tent.They all attach great importance to this matter.

And the one who had the greatest impact on this incident was naturally Kublai Khan himself.

The southern Han land was Kublai Khan's basic base and his "fief".

The administrative system of the Mongol Empire is relatively primitive, belonging to the "feudal system" of the Zhou Dynasty.

And this "enfeoffment system" is very interesting. It is not that the emperor entrusts you with the land conquered by his own country, and gives you some soldiers and horses, and then entrusts you with the enemy's territory for you to fight by yourself.

When you knock down this piece of land, then you are the "prince" of this piece of land.

And sometimes even soldiers and horses are not even given to you, but a "bad check" is given to you, and the Great Khan only entrusts you with that piece of land.Then let you spend your own money to recruit soldiers and horses to crusade.

When you take it down, the "treasures", "women" and "people" there are all yours.

As for the basic grassland of the Mongolian Empire, only those who inherit the position of the Great Khan are eligible to enter the golden tent of the grassland.

Now Handi is the territory that Wokuotai Khan entrusted to Kublai Khan. At present, the hearts of Handi are floating, and Kublai Khan's troops still have not recovered from the last Huaihe battle.

After all, soldiers and horses are easy to recruit, but those "elite veterans" who have experienced many battles are difficult to replenish in a short time.

Therefore, the overall level of Kublai Khan's army is now weaker than before.

And now because of the nursery rhyme of "the one-eyed man" and the presence of the one-eyed man, the hearts of the people in the whole Han area are very floating.

For this, Kublai Khan did two things, the first job was to try his best to "suppress the rumors", and anyone who dared to mention this matter would be executed immediately.Moreover, the place where the one-eyed stone man appeared, all the people in a radius of fifty miles were slaughtered.The purpose is to block this news.

And the other hand is to use both kindness and power, trying to appease the Han landlords and powerful families, as long as they are safe and sound, then there will be no major problems.

After all, it is simply a joke to rely on people who have never even read a book to rebel and establish a country.

But if you are afraid, those educated elites and wealthy families will lead them.

In the past, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty once said that "a boat is better than a man, and water is better than a commoner. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it." OK.

In the eyes of the Mongols, those ordinary people who don't even know a few big characters obviously don't have the pattern and ability to "divert water".

Therefore, as long as the elites in the territory are well controlled and the intellectuals do not take the opportunity to cause trouble, then there will be no major problems.

The Li family in Luoyang is what Kublai Khan attaches the most importance to. After all, if you talk about "rebellion", the Li family has nearly [-] private soldiers, and they are entrenched in Luoyang. They are the most capable and powerful of.

Therefore, Kublai Khan replaced several of his main divisions from the border between Song and Mongolia, and placed them around Luoyang to monitor Luoyang's every move.

These three main divisions have a total of 5000 people, all of which are stationed around Luoyang, and they are all important transportation throats.

However, Li Qingwei was not surprised by this, because it was expected, and not only was he not surprised, Li Qingwei was even a little happy.

Just like beating a drum in a battle, "one vigorous effort, then decline, and three exhaustion".

Although the first wave of the Mongols' offensive may be very fierce, so is Li Qingwei's "Tang Army". The new regime" is the best.

What Li Qingwei was afraid of was not the tens of thousands of Mongolian troops swarming up, but what he was afraid of was that these troops, one in the east and one in the west, would not be able to effectively annihilate them with a small number of people and let them escape.

At that time, because of the expansion of the territory, I will inevitably divide my troops to defend it.

After they fled back to the grassland, they regrouped and fought back. That was the most troublesome thing for him.

The Han Dynasty back then was not as mobile as the Huns, so the Huns could break it a little every time, and after the plundering, they fled far away, making it impossible for you to fight.

The Ming Dynasty of later generations also faced the same problem.

It was because the Ming Dynasty did not completely wipe out the main force of the Mongols that the subsequent Hongwu Northern Expedition, Yongle Northern Expedition, and even the Tumu Fortress Change occurred.

Since Kublai Khan put several of his main forces in front of Li Qingwei, the "fat meat" delivered to his door would not be eaten in vain.Anyway, Jackal Valley is big enough to bury them.

Li Qingwei was not afraid of being defeated, let alone the firearms developed by Tang Lan, the "big killer" he had prepared could make them die as many times as they came.

Li Qingwei sent Li Yuhan to go out to communicate with Zhuge Qingyun, and the time of the incident was set on the eighth day of September.

However, there was a small change in the plan, that is, Li Qingwei was "closed in confinement" by Kublai Khan, so it's better to hold back for now.

Zhuge Qingyun took the lead in raising troops to resist the first wave of Mongol counterattacks, and then Li Qingwei supported Luoyang's soldiers again.

As for the command of Guanzhong, Li Qingwei handed over the full authority to Zhuge Qingyun.And Zhuge Qingyun began to implement his plan.

And the "one-eyed man" in this world even spread to the Song Dynasty in the south.

There are different opinions on this matter in the Southern Song Dynasty, but Zhao Ke and the three were confined in Ziwei Residence, so they didn't know about it.

However, this matter cannot be concealed from the smart Huang Rong. Taohua Island is best at odd numbers and geomantic omens. This kind of pretentious tricks is not difficult for the Huang family father and daughter.

It's just that Huang Rong admired the talent of this strange man who put down the "one-eyed man".

She also guessed that this "game" was the "Dragon Gate Formation" set up by her "junior brother" Li Qingwei.

It's just that the current Huang Rong can't guess what Li Qingwei is going to do.Is it possible that the Great Song Dynasty is going to the Northern Expedition?

But these have nothing to do with Guo Jing and his wife.

After experiencing the Battle of the Huai River, both Song and Mongolia suffered heavy losses and were unable to launch another major battle in a short period of time.

Therefore, Guo Jing is now completely idle.Moreover, their husband and wife returned to Peach Blossom Island with their children, Wu and Yelu brothers and sisters.

Because Xiangyang City is now guarded by gunboats on the Han River, and the naval cover that Mongolia does not have, their soldiers and horses cannot fight at all, so Guo Jing also lost his "use value".

Although the warriors headed by Lord Lu Wende are grateful for Guo Jing's help over the years, they have always regarded Guo Jing as their guest of honor.

But the Mongolian threat has been lifted, and many administrative and civil officials in Xiangyang City have begun to "gobble their tongues."

Moreover, they also participated in the performance of Lu Wende's close contacts with people from all walks of life, but these letters were intercepted by the gang of beggars. In order not to cause trouble to Lord Lu Wende, Guo Jing and his wife returned to Peach Blossom Island with their youngest son "retired after success".
