Chapter 1263 The Hurricane Has Passed, but only the Grass Remains

On the evening of September 10, Peacock King Dilawa took the initiative to contact Gupta King Akbar. The two giants in Tianzhu District, who are also deadly enemies, had a rare secret dialogue.

"Ashoka is fighting with Daxia in Tubo, what do you think?" Dilawa asked.

"Let's watch a play, what else can I do."

"You don't want to do something?"

Abak pretended not to understand, and said with a smile, "I'm lazy and don't want to move."

"It's strange to believe you!" The Peacock King complained in his heart, knowing that he would not accept the move if he did not take the initiative to reveal the card, "I said, let's not go around around the corner, let's just say it, this is the best way to attack the Ashoka Dynasty Opportunity, even the only chance, you won't be really indifferent, will you?"

"What do you want?" Abak sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

The Peacock King didn't mind either, "It's simple, when they lose both sides, you and I join forces and send troops together to defeat the Ashoka Dynasty and divide the world equally."

Abak just nodded.

Both of them have self-knowledge, knowing that even if the Ashoka Dynasty suffered setbacks in the Tubo battlefield, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is not something that the two dynasties can compete alone.

Teaming up is an inevitable choice.

"How to join forces?" Abak asked.

"It's very simple. Let's agree on a boundary in advance, and everyone will use this as the boundary to divide the north and the south without interfering with each other. How about that?" Even though they are working together, the trust between the two is limited, so it is necessary to divide the cake in advance.

"That's good, I agree." Abak was very straightforward, and then asked the last question, "Then, Wangcheng Deli, how to divide it, it can't be half for one person."

This is sensitive.

In terms of importance, the value of Delhi accounts for more than a quarter of the entire Ashoka Dynasty.

The Peacock King said: "Whoever kills it first, it will be his."

"Okay, that's it!"

The two giants hung up the communication and secretly divided the Ashoka Dynasty. As for the specific boundary line and cooperation details, the following ministers were naturally responsible for negotiation.

What they have to do is to prepare for war in advance.

The two of them didn't talk about morality and justice at all. In the wilderness, the winner was the king and the loser, and it was King Ashoka's choice to invade Tubo.

If you choose, you will naturally have to bear the price.

As for joining forces to attack Da Xia, don't be ridiculous, the current Da Xia is so powerful that it makes people feel chills, if Da Xia doesn't fight, they will burn their incense, how dare they take the initiative to attack.

…………

On September 12, Zhang Yi and his party arrived at Hara and Lin.

The Mongolian expedition to the west, Daxia did not take the opportunity to make trouble, this feeling, Genghis Khan must accept.

Therefore, when Zhang Yi and his party first appeared on the grassland, Genghis Khan sent General Jebe, leading 10,000 personal guards, to guard along the way, and gave Zhang Yi and his party extremely high treatment.

When they arrived in Harahelin, the envoys were also warmly received. On behalf of Genghis Khan, the prime minister of the Mongolian Empire, Yelu Chucai, rushed to the gate of the city to welcome them, giving them enough face.

Yelu Chucai was born in the Khitan nobles, and in his early years he was in the Kingdom of Jin, where he was a member of the left and right divisions, Wailang.

When the Mongolian army captured Jinzhongdu, Genghis Khan accepted Yelu Chucai as his minister. Yelu Chucai proposed and formulated various governance strategies based on the Confucian way of governing the country, which laid the foundation for the development of the Mongolian Empire.

Yelu Chucai assisted Genghis Khan and his sons for more than 30 years and served as Zhongshu Ling for 14 years. He had a profound influence on Genghis Khan and his descendants, and various measures he adopted laid the foundation for the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty.

Such talent and contribution also allowed Yelu Chucai to be ranked among the top ten famous ministers in China, along with Li Si, Xiao He, Fang Xuanling, Di Renjie, Zeng Guofan and other famous ministers.

Zhang Yi was also unambiguous. After moving into the embassy, ​​he immediately offered boxes and boxes of gifts, all of which were special products from the Central Plains, such as Jingdezhen porcelain, Jiangnan silk, tea, fine wine, etc., all of which were of the highest quality.

Genghis Khan looked good when he saw it, but when Zhang Yi presented the letter of credence, Genghis Khan's expression sank after reading it. He was obviously unprepared for the blunt wording in the letter of credence.

"Is the request made by your country too much?" Genghis Khan asked, lacking in confidence.

Hearing this, Zhang Yi replied bluntly: "My dynasty is the orthodox of China, and the world is the co-lord of the world. It is an obligation for your country to temporarily open the way to my dynasty. How can you say too much?"

"The co-lord of the world? I didn't admit it."

Zhang Yi just smiled and said: "This is exactly what my Majesty wants to ask, is Khan willing to admit it now?"

The air froze in an instant.

Genghis Khan's eyes flickered, "What if I say no?"

"It's very simple. In order to maintain the status of the co-lord of the world, the only way to win is on the battlefield." Zhang Yi was also unambiguous. In the past, Daxia might not have the confidence, but now he speaks forcefully.

Genghis Khan was angry, but he didn't dare to be cruel.

"So, the envoy's visit this time is in the afternoon." Genghis Khan said indifferently.

Zhang Yi smiled again, "Whether it is a letter of war or not depends entirely on the Khan's decision. If possible, I am not willing to meet with your country in battle. It is best to solve the problem through negotiation."

"How?"

"That depends on whether Khan talks sincerely." Zhang Yi was sure.

Genghis Khan had calmed down. In fact, Ouyang Shuo was thinking about how to deal with the Mongol Empire. Genghis Khan, as a generation of heroes, never thought about similar issues.

Watching the Central Plains War, Qin Huang Han Wu, Tang Zong Song Wu, one committed suicide, one was assassinated, one went into seclusion, and the other was usurped and placed under house arrest. The ending was extremely miserable.

Although Genghis Khan was conceited, he would not think that he would be more powerful than these four emperors. To them, Da Xia can be ruthless, there is no reason to say that he will be soft-hearted, let him alone.

If you want to have a good death, sometimes you have to be soft when you should be soft. Being tough to the end is of no benefit to oneself or to the clansmen.

But even if he wanted to be soft, Genghis Khan needed a step up, otherwise, it would be too embarrassing. Zhang Yi came here, first to test, and second, to send a step to Genghis Khan.

"This matter is very important, let me think about it."

Genghis Khan was very knowledgeable, and he didn't overdo it.

Zhang Yi nodded and got up to say goodbye.

…………

After Zhang Yi left, Genghis Khan sighed, "What should come, will always come."

Yelu Chucai on the side heard this, and advised him: "Khan, no one can stop the Great Xia's unification of China. In order to expel the Ashoka Dynasty, they did not hesitate to raise an army of two million, which shows their firm determination."

"I know this too, but I'm not reconciled." Genghis Khan sighed.

"The hurricane has passed through the hills, and only the grass is left." Yelu Chucai said comfortingly, "This wilderness is still the world of aliens after all. Acceptable conditions to achieve a smooth handover.”

Genghis Khan asked: "What kind of conditions do you think the prime minister should ask?"

"The best result, of course, is to recognize Daxia as the suzerain. It's just that I am worried that Daxia may not be satisfied with this, and Khan needs to be mentally prepared." Yelu Chucai said.

Genghis Khan shook his head, "What psychological preparation? It's just abdication."

Yelu Chucai remained silent for a long time before he said cautiously: "With Khan's prestige in Mongolia, it may be difficult to reassure Emperor Xia. The best way is to choose one of the princes to pass on the throne."

"This is also the common practice of those Central Plains emperors." Yelu Chucai added.

Genghis Khan asked: "The prime minister thinks, which prince can take on this important task?"

This is a bit embarrassing for Yelu Chucai, Na Na said: "This Khan's family matter, I dare not speak nonsense."

Yelu Chucai didn't say anything, but Genghis Khan said it himself, "Among the princes who can inherit the position of Khan, only Wokuotai and Tuolei have one penny and one military. No matter who succeeds, it may cause The discord among their brothers. I am afraid that this is something that Daxia would like to see, if that is the case, let Daxia decide."

Yelu Chucai was taken aback, and asked, "Khan agrees, have you negotiated with Daxia?"

Genghis Khan nodded, "Let's talk, there is no other way. The prime minister will be in charge of the specific negotiations. I hope a good result can be reached."

"Don't worry Khan, I will do my best." Yelu Chucai clasped his fists.

Hearing this, Genghis Khan didn't show any excitement, but waved his hand wearily. This all-powerful old man was physically and mentally exhausted in front of a powerful enemy, and he lost his fighting spirit.

Goshawks can soar in the blue sky, but they cannot fight against the blue sky.

Genghis Khan is the eagle in the steppe, and Daxia is the sky, covering the Mongol Empire, it is absolutely irresistible existence, what can we use to fight?

Now, Genghis Khan began to understand a little bit, Qin Shihuang's state of mind when he killed himself.

"Weichen resigns!"

Seeing this, Yelu Chucai tactfully bid farewell and left.
