In December of the fifth year of Zhengde, one of Kublai Khan's four dogs, Zhelemei, led an army of 60,000 to take the lead in the rebellion. This was undoubtedly a backstab for Dayuan, who was already having problems.

The army in Zhelemei's hands was a little better, after all, it was only an army of 60,000.

It’s not like Dayuan can’t afford the loss!
The worst case scenario would be to continue recruiting troops, but after all, Zhelemei was also Kublai Khan's crony and one of Kublai Khan's most trusted generals. The Four Dogs could not be obtained casually.

As a result, even Zhelemai has rebelled, but what about the others?
Zhelemie's betrayal was expected by Kublai Khan, but it was not completely unacceptable.

Kublai Khan himself also knew that when he was strong enough, everyone would revolve around him.

Those generals who seem ambitious will all be very honest.

But once Kublai Khan's power is not enough, these ghosts and snake gods will jump out one by one.

What he needs to worry about is not Zhelemi's problem, but that other generals will jump out at this time. The current Dayuan cannot stand the betrayal of these people.

But sometimes, the more people are afraid of something, the more it will come!
Not long after Zhelemi's betrayal, Mu Huali, his most trusted general, also defected.

You know, this is Mu Huali!
He could have Kublai Khan's 100,000 elites in his hands, and Mu Huali was in charge of the western front.

This was a child that Kublai Khan personally watched and raised. To Kublai Khan, Mu Huali was almost like his own son.

But at this critical moment, Mu Huali betrayed Kublai Khan! Together with an army of 100,000, these armies had previously provided the confidence for the Yuan Dynasty to advance westward.

In recent years, the reason why the Yuan Dynasty could continue to wage wars with the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty was mainly because Mu Huali's army continued to plunder the battlefields in the west.

Now Mu Huali's betrayal has undoubtedly caused the Great Yuan Empire, which was already on the verge of collapse, to fall apart.

After learning about Mu Huali's betrayal, Zhu Houzhao gave Shao Min countless thumbs up in his heart.

I think back then, Shao Min's father, King Ruyang, actually had a sworn relationship with Mu Huali, but when it came to King Ruyang, Mu Huali couldn't help him even if he wanted to.

After all, everyone knows Kublai Khan's temper. As long as Kublai Khan wants to deal with someone, no one can dissuade him.

At that time, if anyone stood up to speak for King Ruyang, not to mention Mu Huali, but even Tuo Lei, Kublai Khan's favorite son, Kublai Khan would probably kill him without hesitation.

This in itself is something that no one can refute!
Kublai Khan will think that if you refute me for a Ruyang King, that is disloyal to me. As a general, there is no need for such a person to exist no matter how excellent his ability is.

Naturally, it is impossible for Mu Huali to sacrifice his entire family for King Ruyang.

But things are different now. Kublai Khan cannot protect himself, and the Great Yuan is also on the verge of decline.

At this time, Shao Min found himself, and Mu Huali naturally had some other ideas.

After all, Kublai Khan will soon be a thing of the past!
Kublai Khan, who was targeted by Wu Qi and whose retreat was cut off, could not escape at this time. For the Ming Dynasty, Kublai Khan was just a turtle in the meal.

At this time, where else could Kublai Khan go?
Is it possible to go to Song Dynasty?
Mu Huali said that he also needed to consider his future. He had a good relationship with King Ruyang at the beginning. If he cooperates well with Zhu Houzhao at this time, he should be able to save his life in the future, right?
If he doesn't cause trouble for Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao shouldn't cause trouble for himself, right?
We are not enemies. Kublai Khan was Zhu Houzhao’s enemy, but Mu Huali was not!
Therefore, after some thought, Mu Huali directly chose to betray Kublai Khan, and, with Shao Min's guarantee, Mu Huali continued to attack westward.

According to Zhu Houzhao, if Mu Huali had the ability, there would be no problem in continuing to attack westward. As long as he didn't participate in the war between the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao had no intention of taking care of Mu Huali!
Thinking about it carefully, Mu Huali also feels that it makes sense.

You know, before the Great Yuan Dynasty, it was the most vast country on the Zongwu Continent!
none of them!
In Mu Huali's view, Zhu Houzhao would not be able to occupy the entire Yuan Dynasty within ten years, and he would inevitably encounter many obstacles during this period.

There is nothing that cannot be accomplished in a few decades, and a few decades are enough for Mu Huali to do a lot of things.

How to choose at that time will be discussed decades later.

Moreover, the larger the country's territory, the more troublesome it is to manage. It was a bit too big before the Yuan Dynasty. For countries like the Ming Dynasty that did not like to enfeoff, and Zhu Houzhao liked the emperor to manage directly, it was naturally impossible to enfeoff.

It was also difficult for the Ming Dynasty to expand the country too much.

Both Zhu Houzhao and Shao Min can understand Mu Huali's choice.

They were also those countries that wanted to let Mu Huali go to the west.

There are also many powerful countries on the grassland over there, and now they also need a stick to muddy the water there.

If these people come to Dayuan to cause trouble, it will be troublesome.

Today's Dayuan is about to be doomed, and Zhu Houzhao doesn't want to see anyone taking the opportunity to pick peaches.

I worked so hard to cripple Dayuan, and then someone else came to pick the peaches. That would be really disgusting.

Letting Mu Huali out now is also a good thing for Ming Dynasty.

After Mu Huali's betrayal, Kublai Khan's other generals also began to have confused thoughts.

Not only did they want to betray Kublai Khan, but Kublai Khan also became distrustful of the generals under his command.

There was no way, everyone looked like a traitor to Kublai Khan now. Mu Huali and Kublai Khan were as close as father and son, but at this time, Mu Huali directly betrayed Kublai Khan.

What about everyone else?
Now Kublai Khan is like a wounded alpha wolf, no one should provoke him, otherwise, he will definitely die and drag you into the water.

Ordinary people who provoke Kublai Khan are bound to die.

And because of the chaos within the Yuan Dynasty, the Song State was also dumbfounded.

Especially Zhao Kuangyin didn't know what to say.

"Is that guy Kublai Khan a loser? How could he lose so easily?!"

Zhao Kuangyin complained directly to Cao Bin below him.

Kublai Khan lost to Zhu Houzhao, and he lost to Kublai Khan. Doesn't this make him, Zhao Kuangyin, very weak?
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Zhao Kuangyin said that he could not accept such a setting!
Losing to Kublai Khan was just his bad luck!
Also, how come that guy Zhu Houzhao is so lucky? (End of chapter)
