The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 504

Boyan smiled slightly and explained: "Commander, this rumor is indeed true. Back then, when the old emperor of the Southern Dynasty appointed Zhao Yu as the crown prince, his family teacher deduced the fate of the emperor's star for the Southern Dynasty, and said, Zhao Yu is mentally retarded, low-energy, and weak, and has the destiny of the emperor, but no ability to be an emperor. Later, on the night of the old emperor's death, the master suddenly felt a sudden whim, and once again deduced the celestial phenomena, and found that the originally dim Southern Dynasty emperor star suddenly became large. The light shines, and in an instant, it forms a celestial phenomenon that shines with each other with my Chaodi star, and the twin stars shine. This kind of strange celestial phenomenon has appeared for the first time in the known history of my shamanism. Weakness is the result of long-term accumulation, just like the luck of the emperor star in my dynasty, after the birth of Genghis Khan, after years of accumulation, it gradually became brighter, and the weakness of the emperor star in the Southern Dynasty is also the result of year-by-year decline."

Although Ah Shu didn't know the way of a sorcerer, she could hear it clearly, and thought to herself, "Could it be, it's God's will?"

Boyan continued: "According to the results of the two deductions and the actual situation afterwards, Zhao Yu before and after his enthronement is completely different. Besides, from the analysis of all the information we have, Zhao Yu is not that kind of city mansion." For a deep person, even if the human heart can be hidden, the science of astronomy will not deceive people, that's why I said this, Zhao Yu's head seems to have been replaced, "

"It's really hard to explain it with normal thinking," Ashu shook his head and said, "But it's impossible to change the head, right?"

"Well, it's impossible to change the brain, but how else should I explain it?"

Since July [-]st, the artillery battalion has been attacking every day again, and several rounds of bombardment every day have blown up the restored Lumenshan Fortress into ruins.

In the few days since the five phalanxes were broken, the gunpowder supervisor successively sent over [-] projectiles and a large number of ammunition for muskets and artillery, which made the bullets of the Royal Forest Army and Artillery Battalion, which had not fired a single bullet in the past few days, all of a sudden. Get enough.

In the past few days, apart from shelling, they have been quite leisurely.

However, two things that happened in succession on the night of the Fourth of July surprised me.

In the evening, a messenger from the Yuan army came to the Guanzitan camp. The rank of this messenger was quite high, and the letter he sent was also of the highest rank. , Tianya Shenzun Yin Tianya's closed disciple, these three identities, any one of them is very important in the Yuan Dynasty, and the one who can make Boyan a messenger is the current emperor of the Great Yuan Empire - Kublai Khan.

As soon as I finished dinner, I saw Zhang Shijie hurriedly walked into the big tent of the Chinese army and said: "Your Majesty, Boyan is asking for an audience outside the camp, saying that he is on a special trip to deliver a letter to the Emperor."

"What, Boyan came to deliver the letter,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

Fang Ling asked, "How many people are there?"

Zhang Shijie replied respectfully: "Going back to the concubine Ling, Boyan is the only one with bare hands and no weapons."

"Which play is this?" I froze for a moment, then said, "General Zhang, let's go and see together."

Surrounded by Yuan Ji, Fang Ling, Zhang Quanyi and others, I came to the guardrail of the north gate of Daying Camp.

At this time, the sky was a little dark, with the help of the weak light in front of the camp, I saw a man in white clothes standing about ten meters in front, and the horse beside him stood quietly in the same place, facing the irrigation. There are thousands of troops in Zitan camp, each of them has no fear, and looks chic and easy in the night, just like a hero who walks alone in the world in the martial arts novels of later generations.

"As expected of a famous Mongolian general," I secretly praised, and then said, "Bo Yan, what's the matter?"

Boyan clasped his hands together and said, "Boyan has seen His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. Boyan took the liberty to come here tonight to deliver a letter for my Emperor Dayuan." After finishing speaking, Boyan took out an envelope from his arms and looked directly at me .

I didn't intend to open the gate of the camp to welcome the guests, and said: "Quan Yi, you go,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

Zhang Quanyi jumped lightly, jumped off the guardrail, and then went straight to Boyan, clasped his fists in both hands, and said: "General Boyan, next Zhang Quanyi, please pass the letter to me, General."

Boyan frowned slightly and said, "Why, General Zhang, are you not letting Boyan in?"

Zhang Quanyi said coldly: "I am following orders,"

Boyan laughed loudly, and said loudly: "General Zhang, you Han people claim to be a state of etiquette, but for a messenger like me, why don't you even let me in? Is this your way of hospitality, or is it afraid of me,"

These two sentences are very loud, and they are obviously meant for me.

Without getting angry, Zhang Quanyi asked with a smile, "General Boyan, tell me, if robbers entered your house, how would you treat them?"

Before Boyan could answer, Zhang Quanyi's expression turned cold, and he continued: "General Boyan, whether you are Mongolians or us Han people, the so-called hospitality is actually the same. When friends come, there will naturally be friends." Treat each other with good wine, but if the jackals come, of course they will treat them with swords and guns. As the general said, my Song Dynasty is a state of etiquette, but it also depends on who it is aimed at. You can talk about etiquette when you see people. , Seeing a thief, if you still talk about etiquette, isn't it tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger? General Boyan, the land you are standing on now is the territory of our dynasty, which means that you broke into it without the consent of the master. Come on, isn't that the same as robbery?"

Boyan was stunned for a moment, feeling speechless, so he handed the letter to Zhang Quanyi: "Then please pass it on to the emperor of your country, General Zhang, and Boyan is waiting here."

"Hehe, I didn't expect Zhang Quanyi to be so eloquent. What he said is good," I praised with a slight smile.

After Zhang Quanyi returned, he handed over the letter. I opened it and saw that it was written in Mongolian. Mongolian characters, including Zhang Quanyi beside me.

"Quan Yi, come and translate for me,"

"Yes, Your Majesty," Zhang Quan said while looking at it, "This is a letter written by Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty himself. Kublai Khan said in the letter that he had arrived in Xiangfan this afternoon and is currently in Lumen. In the big camp on the mountain, Boyan sent this letter because he wanted to ask the emperor to meet at Qingyanggang between Guanzitan and Lumen Mountain at noon tomorrow. Kublai Khan said that the Yuan Dynasty has ruled the world today. In the west and north, the unification of the world is just around the corner. Kublai Khan has long admired the emperor, and regards the emperor as a worthy opponent. The emperor didn't,,,,,,"

I knew it was an unpleasant word, so I smiled and said, "Quan Yi, just read it as you want,"

"Yes, Your Majesty, then Kublai Khan said, if your Majesty doesn't have the guts, there is no need to go to Qingyanggang to attend the appointment,"

Fang Ling whispered: "What kind of conspiracy does Kublai Khan have?"

Qingyanggang was just a place name, it happened to be located between Lumen Mountain and Guanzitan. Although it was called a hill, it was a flat plain, and it was impossible to ambush the army.

"It's hard to say whether there is a conspiracy, but the open terrain of Qingyanggang is not conducive to ambush," I thought for a while, and said loudly to Boyan outside, "Boyan, tell Kublai Khan that I will arrive on time at noon tomorrow."

"Okay," Boyan said goodbye with cupped fists, "Your Majesty, then Boyan will take my leave first."

"Wait," Yuan Ji asked suddenly, "Bo Yan, did Lingshi Yin Tianya come here with Kublai Khan?"

Boyan didn't hide anything, and said with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Yuan, the family teacher is also here this time."

"Okay, Boyan, tomorrow the old man should also go to Qingyang Gang,"

"Mr. Yuan, Boyan bid farewell,"

"No delivery,"

"Is this a gauntlet?" Fang Ling asked after returning to the big tent.

"Well, that's sort of it," Kublai Khan wanted to see me, so why didn't I want to see him? Although there were many celebrities in the late Southern Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty, who could compare with Kublai Khan?

Jiang Wanzai said, "Your Majesty, will the shelling continue as usual tomorrow?"

"Well, this remains the same. According to the plan, the shelling will still be carried out in the early morning,"

"Yes, Your Majesty,"

"Sir, choose 90 people from the personal guards, and let Wu Songhan choose ten sharpshooters, each carrying three throwing bombs, and follow me to Qingyanggang tomorrow,"

"Yes, Your Majesty's order,"

"Brother, I'm going too," Fang Ling said.

"Go, Ling'er is highly skilled in martial arts, of course you can go, and in addition, let Xie Daolin, Wenzhang, Hu Yande, Meng Tianxiang and other good soldiers in the army accompany you, so there will be no serious problems."

Yuan Zhi nodded and said: "These 100 people can compete with [-] men. Even if Yin Tianya, A Shu, Boyan and other famous Mongolian generals come out together, the ministers can protect His Majesty well."

"Hehe, they are all the elites of our dynasty, not to mention throwing bombs, so even if Kublai Khan has any tricks, it will be in vain, General Jiang Cai,"

"The minister is here,"

"With the speed of your army, it will only take a quarter of an hour at most from Guanzitan Camp to Qingyanggang. General Jiang, you and your Polu army will wait ten miles away from Qingyanggang and be ready to respond at any time. preparations,"

"Yes, the general will obey the order,"

"Jiang Aiqing, you are in charge of commanding the army of the camp, and take strict precautions. Since Kublai Khan has arrived, I guess there will be a big battle in the near future,"

"Yes, I obey the order," Jiang Wanzai said, "In the past few days, even the Mongolian troops attacking the two cities of Xiang and Fan have subsided a lot. They must be waiting for Kublai Khan to make a major decision."

"Yes, I also think so. Kublai Khan will put all his eggs in one basket and attack my Guanzitan camp with all his strength." If I were Kublai Khan, I would not be able to imagine how to use cold weapons to break the power of firearms. Before the ubiquity of weapons, the first to strike is the first to defeat the opponent, and then there is a glimmer of hope.

During the discussion, Gongsun Xiaochen entered the room and said, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Yingzhou."

I was startled, and asked, "Quick report, what's the matter?"

Gongsun Xiaochen hurriedly said: "On the 28th of last month, the gunpowder prison outside Lin'an City was attacked by thousands of unidentified men in black."
