There is a big difference between Sanfu city and the city of Central Plains.
The layout of the whole city is based on three mountains, one connected by one river and three rivers passing through the city.
Looking at it, it shows the architectural style of Qu, you, narrow and da.
Although the army led by the fourth king of Kublai Khan has crossed the Jinsha River, their army is still quite far away from the city.
Moreover, according to the news from the front, although the Mongolian army crossed the Jinsha River, it was ambushed and suffered great losses when pursuing some tribes. Now it is in the process of recuperation.
For a while and a half, they will not be able to reach the three cities.
The life of the people in Sanfu city is the same as before. They go in and out every day, and the excitement remains the same.
On this day, a group of people came to the gate of the residence of the chief of some tribes.
The one at the front is quite young in appearance, at most 20 years old.
He reached out and picked out two pieces of silver from his pocket, handed them to the sergeant who was guarding the door and said, "take them."
He made a small fortune out of thin air. The sergeant was happy to smile.
He bowed to the young man and asked politely, "what can I do for you, sir?"
"I'd like to see your chief." The visitor replied.
The big leaders of these tribes, ah Zong, may not be anything else, but in these three cities, they are equivalent to the local emperors, and they are not what people can easily see.
If you stand up to this young man, the sergeant is in a bit of a dilemma.
On the one hand, if you accept two ingots of silver from others, you should be convenient for them. But if you don't see the leader of a Zong, he can't be the master.
Seeing this, the man asked him if he was in any difficulty.
After hearing about the situation, the man took out a post from his arms and handed it to the sergeant.
He said, "you give this to your chief, ah Liang. As for whether you can see it or not, you don't care."
"That's easy." After the sergeant heard this, he immediately relaxed and said.
With that, he went to the inside of the big leader's residence with the invitation card.
It wasn't long before the sergeant came out again.
With a smile on his face, he said to the young man, "you are so lucky. Our chief is willing to see you."
"It's just that these people around you can't all go in, they can only wait outside." Another way.
The man pointed to two of them and said, "this incident is closely related to them. Except for the two of them who have to go in, others can wait outside the residence."
"All right, then." The sergeant hesitated.
The mansion is not big, so it's only three courtyards.
The sergeant took them to the guest room in the second courtyard, pointed to the one sitting in the middle, and introduced to the young man, "this is the chief of our tribe."
"You go down first." The big leader a Liang waved at him and said.
After the sergeant finished the salute and left, the chief a Zong ignored the man. Instead, he patted the table and yelled at the other two: "you two have joined Kublai Khan. Do you still have the face to see our commander?"
It turns out that these three people are the father and son of general Boyan and former general.
The chief a Zong did not know general Boyan, but he did know the father and son of the former general, who helped the fourth Prince Kublai Khan cross the Jinsha River.
"As a minister of Dali, you betrayed Dali, you traitor!" He added.
The former general said, "chief, don't get angry. Listen to me."
"I have no time to listen to you." A Zong leads the way.
Then he called out, "come on, put them in jail."
"Ha ha, I didn't expect that some big tribal leaders were cowards." When the sergeant who came in pushed the former general out, the former general said with a smile.
The chief of azong ordered the sergeant to push them back and asked, "what are you laughing at when you are dying?"
"Xiaoda, you are a coward." The former general replied.
The chief of a Zong retorted: "it's full of nonsense. Even Kublai Khan is not afraid of his own king. Now you are just a dog under Kublai Khan's hand. Are you afraid of you?"
"If you are not afraid of me, you should give me a chance to talk next." Former general.
The chief of a Zong waved the sergeant to step down and said: "if you have something to say, let it go."
"I don't know when a catastrophe is coming." Former general.
Ah Zong led the way: "don't scare people. Some time ago, Kublai Khan's army was beaten by his second brother's army. Now you have crossed the Jinsha River, but these three fortresses are indestructible. We are not afraid of you. "
" prison is indestructible, just afraid it is impossible. " Said the young man.He added: "in this world, even the most solid city, we Mongolians can easily break it."
"Who are you?" Asked the chief.
Pointing at the young man, the former general replied, "this is the famous general Boyan under the account of the fourth Prince Kublai Khan. "
although Boyan was young among the generals under Kublai Khan, the fourth prince, he was at the forefront of the battle against Dali. Although he had never met him, he was quite familiar with his name.
"If you don't go to heaven, you will come to hell. If you come here today, you won't go out again." A Zong leads the way.
After hearing this, Boyan was not afraid at all. He said, "if I dare to come, I will not be afraid of you. "
" it's easy to kill people. " Former general.
He added, "I'm afraid you'll regret it after you kill someone."
"The Mongols are our enemies in Dali. The more we kill, the better." A Zong leads the way.
The former general said, "well, let's not argue. Let's be serious."
"This time I come here, I hope you two brothers can submit to our four princes." General Boyan said.
A Zong led the way: "daydreaming, our brothers will not surrender even if they fight to the last one."
"But your second brother, the second leader, a Liang, has been subordinated to our fourth prince. "Boyan said.
A Zong asked, "are you a three-year-old? "
" I'm sorry that you are still a famous general in Mongolia. You used such a low-level estrangement plan against our general. " He added.
General Boyan listened to him and said with disdain: "you are smart. "
" look at this for yourself. " He added.
With that, he took out an envelope, opened the folded letter, held it in both hands, and faced the leader of a Zong.
"although you are close to his brother, you can't agree with him!" Asked the former general.
Without waiting for the other party to reply, he added: "besides, you see, there are the seals of the two leaders and the fingerprints of the generals under his command."
As the former general said, he is familiar with the handwriting of his brother and the second leader.
He once said that although he was the chief of these tribes, the whole force of the tribe was under the control of his brother, a Liang, the second chief.
After reading this letter, his heart really cooled.
What the big leader a Zong thought before was that although the second leader a Liang had been fighting for the position of the tribe with himself, he should be able to realize that it was a moment of life and death for these tribes. If both of them got up, it would only give the Mongolian army and himself a chance.
He should be able to deal with the fourth Prince Kublai Khan's army.
Ah Liang, the second leader, should understand the reason why teeth die and lips are cold. He never dreamed that before Kublai Khan had hit the three cities, he had taken refuge with Kublai Khan early.
For a long time, the chief, ah Liang, was speechless.
General Boyan folded the opened letter and put it back into the envelope. He asked, "chief, you have nothing to say, have you?"
"So what?" The second leader a Zong asked.
He added: "without the support of a-liang, I can still keep the three cities."
After hearing this, the former general laughed and said to a Zong: "chief, I know what you are saying is angry. "
" not for yourself, but for your wife and children. " He added.
A Zongdao said: "the wife of the commander of Dali is the princess of Dali. Even if the second leader, a Liang, betrayed us, it's no big deal. The king of Dali will send reinforcements to help us guard the city."
"You and I are very clear about the political situation in Dali. The one who can really make the decision is the Lord of Gao, the king of Dali. To put it bluntly, he is just a puppet." Former general.
He asked: "in Dali, you have been secretly presiding over the king of Dali to regain the royal power. For this reason, the Lord of the high Kingdom hates you to the bone. Do you think the Lord of the high kingdom will send troops to help you?"
This is another heavy hammer, heavy hit on the big leader a Zong's body, let the big leader a Liang's last hope also burst.
Look at him again, his arrogance is obviously not so arrogant, and his head is lowered.
"You are the eldest son of the last generation of tribal leaders. What the fourth Prince values most is that as long as you submit to the fourth prince, not only the lives of your family can be saved, but also the position of your chief will not change." General Boyan said.
A Liang said with a little sadness: "the wife of the leader is a princess of Dali royal family. Now let the leader abandon the king of Dali and turn to you. The leader really can't bear it."
"To tell you the truth, I don't need you to be loyal to King Dali, but now the real king of Dali is not the one sitting on the throne, but the Lord Gao. If we fight against Lin Hanting's army now, we are actually helping the Lord Gao, not the king Dali." Former general.When he finished, general Boyan continued: "in fact, there is a little misunderstanding in Dali about our Mongolian Khanate."
"What's the misunderstanding?" Asked the chief, a Zong.
General Dali replied, "it's not for the other two purposes that we came here to destroy you."
"Two other purposes?" Asked the chief, a Zong.
General Boyan replied, "not bad."
Then, he said that the high Lord of Dali was dictatorial, bullied the king of Dali, and made the people in Dali destitute. What the Mongolian Khan hated most in his life was the bandits. Therefore, he sent his fourth younger brother, Kublai Khan, to take charge of the army in Dali, in order to defend the king of Dali.
In addition to this, the Song Dynasty did not submit to Mongolia. This time, it also hoped to attack the hinterland of the Song Dynasty through Dali.
Of course, it would be better if Dali could send troops to assist the Mongol Khanate's army to attack.
Once it's done, the benefits of Dali are absolutely indispensable.
General, it's true.
He knew that it was the national policy of the Mongol Khanate for generations to attack the hinterland of the Song Dynasty through Dali. As for the Qing emperor's side, it was certainly nonsense.
Mengge Khan was not so kind-hearted. He spent money and food to remove the powerful officials for others. And the purpose of destroying Dali in the end was masked by the explanation of the author.
Don't mention it. He really made the big leader a Zong a little excited.
Why resist the army of the Mongolian Khanate?
The gaoguozhu family had been oppressing Dali king for several generations. At the most rampant time, they forced Dali king to abdicate and stand on his own.
As a tribe loyal to the king of Dali, the leader of azong had been trying to clean up the high Lord, but he was unable to compete with the king of Dali because of his limited strength.
Now, Boyan has said that one of the purposes of this trip is to deal with Gao Guozhu and cooperate with others. It is a win-win choice.
"You're not going to cross the river, are you?" Asked the chief, a Zong.
After listening to them, they knew that the leader of a Zong had already been moved by them.
General Boyan said to him, "chief, our fourth Prince is the fourth younger brother of Mongolian Khan. He is the hero of the world. What he says is always like a mountain. There is absolutely no reason to repent."
"In that case .。”
When ah Zong said "chief", he stopped.
Although the content after the word "Hua" has not been said, we all know what the great leader of a Zong wants to say.
It seems that the leader of the three li, the great leader of a Zong, still hesitated.
General Boyan said, "it's too late to wait. Don't regret it, chief."
On the surface, it sounds like a reminder to the chief of a Zong. He pondered it carefully, but there was a smell of threat.
The leader of a Zong knew that it would be irreparable to wait for others to give up completely.
With a long sigh, he pointed to the direction of Dali city and said, "king, it's not that his subordinates are unfaithful, but that at the moment, we need to cooperate with the Mongolian Khanate."
"You two, the chief has decided that from now on, which tribes are willing to submit to the fourth prince. I'd like to welcome the fourth prince into the city in person." Another way.
