Chapter 3                                                              

Zhou Mengchen kept his promise. Early the next morning, he took more than a thousand cavalry away and slowly headed eastward.

Among these more than a thousand cavalry, there are a large proportion of generals. They all went to see His Majesty.

Yang Jisheng's movements were very fast. Almost before and after Zhou Mengchen left the capital, he sent the news to Zhang Hui. At this time, it was very easy to contact Zhang Hui and the others, but the reason was that in the Battle of Shuozhou, the Tartars lost their armor, and many people ran away. At this moment, some people returned to Qingcheng from all directions every day.

The management of the Tartars is not as meticulous as that of the Han people.

It is naturally easy to get in. But after this period of time, it will be difficult to deal with.

Before Zhou Mengchen arrived in the capital, Zhang Hui received the news.

Zhang Hui's heart moved, and she stood up and wandered for a while. After thinking for a while, she felt that Zhou Mengchen's judgment was correct. Although Xin Ai was defeated this time, Altan left him a good foundation, and Borjijin's family was the absolute master of the grassland.

Although Xin Ai may lose a lot of power this time, many Mongolian nobles who opposed him before would support him instead because their surname was Borjijin.

Among the Borjijin family, there are naturally ambitious families who want to ascend to the Khan throne, but more Borjijin nobles actually don’t like a strong Khan. They also know that their abilities are absolutely impossible to ascend to the Khan throne. For them, a Khan who is weak and needs the support of the Borjijin family is better.

Moreover, although Xin Ai was not a good weapon in Zhou Mengchen's opinion, Xin Ai's military methods and political skills were gradually trained. Although it cannot be said that it is the best among the Tartars, it is also among the top few. In addition, the bonus of the Khan position is added. There are not many people in Mongolia who can beat Xin Ai.

Therefore, the storm caused by Xin Ai's defeat seems very big, but it is not enough to shake Xin Ai's Khan position.

Since that's the case, Zhang Hui decided to do it according to Zhou Mengchen's wishes.

Zhang Hui immediately went to meet Xin Ai.

Zhang Hui waited for more than half an hour before seeing Xin Ai.

But when he saw Xin Ai at this moment, Zhang Hui almost didn't know him.

Xin Ai's appearance is also considered to be the best in Mongolia. She has a sense of heroism, which can be said to be a heroic figure. In addition, Xin Ai did not suffer any major setbacks before. She has a kind of self-confidence and added Xin Ai's charm. But Xin Ai is different now.

The Battle of Shuozhou only took more than a month.

Xin Ai lost more than ten pounds, and her image changed drastically. She seemed to have a hint of bitterness on her face and had more lines on her head. In Zhang Hui's eyes, Xin Ai's temples had strange reflections, and she couldn't be sure whether she had white hair.

Xin Ai said when she met Zhang Hui, "I have been doing a lot in the past few days, but I haven't seen Mr. Zhang. But I've been neglected. But this is also because Mr. Zhang stops doing everything. I don't have to worry too much."

Xin Ai's voice was much hoarse and deeper.

Zhang Hui suddenly bowed and said, "Congratulations to the Khan."

Xin Ai smiled bitterly and said, "What are you going to congratulate?"

Zhang Hui said: "Mencius said: Therefore, when heaven is about to give great responsibilities to this person, he must first suffer his mind and mind, exhaust his muscles and bones, starve his body, and lose his body, and act and make things messy. Therefore, he is moved and endures his nature and has improved his ability. He will always be able to make mistakes and make changes. He will be trapped in his heart, weigh his concerns, and then do it; he will be conscientious in his colors, and then make sounds. When he enters, he will be unable to pass the family against his men, and when he leaves, he will be invincible in foreign patients, and his country will always die. Then he will know that he is born in trouble and dies in peace."

"Isn't it worth celebrating now that the Khan has obtained the true meaning of Mencius?"

Xin Ai was silent for a while and said, "What does this passage mean?"

Zhang Hui was slightly stunned and could only explain it in detail to Xin Ai.

Xin Ai's eyes gradually lit up after hearing this and said, "Mencius is really a great sage. What he said is right. Today, I feel uncomfortable. That's the reason. Can I accomplish great things like this?"

Zhang Hui said: "The Khan will always keep a worried heart in the future and will definitely make great achievements. Who will fail in all those who accomplish great things in the world? Han Gao gave up his wife and son, and Wei Wu had the day to cut off his robe and beard. Although the Khan will be defeated today, his vitality has not been damaged, and he will make a comeback. He will defeat Zhou Mengchen."

Xin Ai immediately became interested, leaned forward slightly and said, "Will the plan come out?"

In fact, Xin Ai was not idle for this period of time. He was busy trying to find ways to consolidate his position. He talked with many Mongolian nobles and wanted to get their support. His sudden weight loss in his body was certainly due to anxiety, but also the reason why he was busy.

Zhang Hui said, "The Khan lost the east corner and the harvest was also good." He was worried that Xin Ai didn't understand what this sentence meant, so he explained it to Xin Ai again.

Xin Ai said: "Where is this Sangyu?"

Zhang Hui said: "It was Bansheng. The national sect was seldom sad. But I think the national sect was loyal to the Khan. He must have hoped to think about the country and hand over the jurisdiction of Bansheng to the Khan. At that time, Emperor Shizu of the Emperor used the power of the Han army marquis to seize the Khan throne. Now, although Bansheng is small, there are still hundreds of thousands of Dingkou. As long as the household registration and the people are allocated, the Khan can at least obtain tens of thousands of Han troops. There are tens of thousands of Han troops in his hands. In addition, the elite troops in Dahan's hands, who dares to act without any move?"

"And who is the White Lotus Sect? If you don't read the books of sages, you like to offend the emperor the most. From the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, you have been in constant chaos. Are these traitors who refuse to surrender to Beijing, and are they really willing to surrender to the Khan? It's just that the situation is forced. What will they do if the situation changes? I don't know. Moreover, I have inquired about the old Khan, and Lao Khan has always been a little worried about the White Lotus Sect and he will not hesitate to introduce the Lama Sect to fight against the White Lotus Sect. The deep meaning of the Khan also understands the best opportunity. Xiao Qin was killed and the dragon had no leader. Bansheng was even more dispersed. Under this situation, the Khan could get tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of thousands of people without any effort. If you miss this time, it would be too late for the Khan to take action in the White Lotus Sect."

"It's just that you can't miss the opportunity and never come again."

"Please make a decision quickly."

After hearing Zhang Hui's words, Xin Ai's heart was filled with turmoil.

Thinking about these words silently.

Regarding Xiao Qin's death, Xin Ai's feelings are very complicated. There are sadness, emotion, loss, and relaxation. In short, countless thoughts emerge, which is simply an indescribable feeling. Just like the complex relationship between Xiao Qin and Xin Ai, both a teacher, an enemy, a friend, and a monarch and a minister.

He had been pacifying all Mongolian tribes before. After all, there were many casualties in Mongolian tribes, with more than 10,000 beheadings, but the damage was definitely more than 10,000 people. Moreover, with Mongolia's unreliable medical methods, the number of casualties was tens of thousands, and almost half of them were injured, and the Tartars were seriously injured.

He hadn't thought of anything else.

But when I thought about it today, I thought to myself: "Yes. The White Lotus Sect's losses are even heavier. Moreover, Xiao Qin's death cannot be said to have nothing to do with me. Once the White Lotus Sect recovers from the internal situation, will the White Lotus Sect's attitude towards me be the same as before?"

When Xin Ai thought of this, she immediately made up her mind.

However, he also had some concerns in his heart. The reason was no different.

Now Xin Ai can't stand a failure once. In the current situation, once the White Lotus Sect causes chaos, even if Xin Ai successfully suppresses the rebellion, it will be greatly damaged and it will be difficult to maintain. The gains are great, but the risks are also very great.

Xin Ai said: "Mr. Zhang, under the current situation, we must never make trouble. Is this really no problem at all?"

Zhang Hui thought to himself: "How can there be no problem at all? What I want is the problem, what I want is a big problem. It is best to have an internal strife or a big war. If this thing is really done, the Tartars will not be able to recover their vitality for ten years, twenty years.

Zhang Hui thought so in his heart, but said, "Please rest assured that the Khan is willing to issue a military order."

For Zhang Hui, if such a big thing can be done, what is a mere life? If the military order is a contract, Zhang Hui went to break the contract from the beginning, although the price was his own life.

"Okay." Xin Ai said: "Ben Khan, he will put his life and life on Mr. Zhang. In the Tumot headquarters, all of them are under Mr. Zhang's dispatch. As long as Mr. Zhang can do such a thing, Mr. Zhang will be my Mongolian national teacher? No, Grand Master."

Xin Ai still knows that he should not look at the call of Master Xiao Qin. In the eyes of the orthodox Confucian disciples, this official position is extremely absurd. It was an insult to him, but the Grand Master was different.
