"Take tread..."

In the heavy rain of lightning and thunder, a sound of horse hooves came faintly. At the palace gate outside the palace, two horses pulled a four-wheeled carriage through the palace gate during the heavy rain, and soon stopped at the gate of the Chuigong Hall.

With a loud bang, the car door was pushed open, and a 60-year-old man with white hair and beard wearing a deep purple male uniform, a gauze hat and a goldfish bag came down.

"Hurry up and put an umbrella for Duke Chong!" Zhao Yun saw the old man and quickly ordered. Several eunuchs immediately rushed over, holding the umbrella, holding the horse, and holding the horse, holding the old man and stepping onto the corridor of the Chugong Hall.

"I'm here to see Your Majesty!" Wu Qian had no time to wipe the rain on his face and saluted Zhao Yun respectfully.

"I am calm, with such heavy rain, coupled with thunder and lightning, I am worried that you will be blocked on the road, so it's good if you come. In fact, I don't have to rush into the palace to see me!" Zhao Yun stepped forward and grabbed Wu Qian's arm and said excitedly.

"The old minister was aware of Qingyuan Mansion for three years and missed His Majesty very much. When he learned that His Majesty was willing to let the old minister go to the front line, he was so excited that he didn't sleep well for several days. After arranging the official duties of Qingyuan Mansion, he rushed over. He really didn't expect it would rain heavily today!"

"I am moved by my dear to the country and the people. After reading my dear memorial, I also feel that the situation of this Mongolian invasion is urgent..."

Zhao Yun walked into the Chuigong Hall with Wu Qian's hand. A palace maid and an eunuch took a clean handkerchief to help them wipe the rain on their faces and then took their seats. After the palace maid presented the hot tea, Zhao Qi ordered everyone to step down.

It was raining outside, and the low-rise palace was a little dark.

But amid the constant explosion of thunder and lightning that tore the rain curtain, the Chugong Hall seemed to be flashing slightly, looking a little shaky.

Holding a teacup, looking at the emperor who was sitting upright with a hunched body, and looking at the lifeless palace, Wu Qian felt a desolate feeling in an instant.

The Song Dynasty is now like a palace in the rainstorm, and it seems to collapse at any time.

"I have read both memorials from you, which is very good. Especially, I have analyzed the reasons why the Mongols suddenly attacked our Song Dynasty this time, which gave me more strategies to deal with it. You asked me to go to the front line to resist the Mongolian army. I feel very relieved. At the same time, I also want to listen to you in person, so I asked you to come to the capital, but I didn't want the heavy rain to cause you to suffer. I feel quite guilty!" After drinking a few sips of tea, Zhao Yun put down the teacup and spoke.

"The old minister is ashamed, and he worried about His Majesty. He actually arrived in Shaoxing last night. He arrived here in the early morning of this morning. It was only an hour. When the heavy rain began, the old minister had already crossed the Qiantang River. He entered the city and the palace. It was only two minutes later, and he really didn't get wet. This time, the old minister was worried that the front line was tight and did not dare to neglect on the road. At the same time, he also hoped that the old minister's analysis and suggestions would be useful to His Majesty and to defend the enemy on the front line!" Wu Qian quickly bowed.

"It is useful and useful. It is the first memorial of my dear, which allows me to see the Mongols' ambitions and respond immediately. Now I have adopted my dear strategy and draw troops to enrich the Jingxiang front line to prevent the attack on Jingzhou by Mengge from being captured by Sichuan. At the same time, I also led my troops north to support Sichuan by Tongshu Lu Wende. Alas, I hope it is still too late..." Zhao Yun sighed with a somewhat ugly face.

"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious. The old minister is rushing to come to the palace to meet His Majesty today. He has made some new judgments and speculations about the Mongol invasion. He hopes to provide some help to Your Majesty's subsequent military arrangements!"

"Oh~ My dear again speculated what conclusions he had come to?" Zhao Yun looked at Wu Qian in surprise.

"Your Majesty, since the old minister learned that the Mongols invaded, he arranged for people to collect some information about the Mongols. He didn't know it yet. Once he understood it, the old minister felt that the situation was already very urgent, and the situation was even more critical than the last time when the old minister wrote a letter. So after he was summoned by His Majesty, he rushed over..."

When Wu Qian was speaking, he took out two drawings from his arms. A eunuch at the door saw it and was about to come up to help deliver it. However, Wu Qian stood up and walked to Zhao Yun and said, "Your Majesty, these two situations are the strategies of the Mongolian army that the old minister has recently compiled and conjectured. One is the overall situation of the East and the West, and the other is the offensive situation of the Mongolian army invasion this time!"

Zhao Yun took the two pictures and looked at them in reverse for a while. He felt like he had no idea of ​​looking at the stars with arrows.

"Your Majesty, the picture is simple, Old Master Rong explains it to Your Majesty!" Seeing the emperor's confused expression, Wu Qian knew that the emperor could not understand it.

"This is the best. I am not as old as my beloved, but my health has been getting worse recently, and I have a sign of dizziness in my eyes!" Zhao Yun quickly handed the drawing back to Wu Qian.

Wu Qian spread the first drawing on the coffee table.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is the first map of the situation in the East and the West. This is our Song Dynasty... Goryeo and Japan are in the east, Mongolia are in the northwest, Chameng, Annan, Myanmar, South Asia are in the southeast, Java, Sanfoqi, and Tubo is in the west... After going west, we will go west, we will go west, we will go west, we will go west, we will go west, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, we will go south, such as Egypt and the West..."

Wu Qian introduced the first map roughly and said with a worried look on his face: "Your Majesty may not know yet. At present, while the Mongolians attacked our Song Dynasty, they are also constantly attacking the West, conquering dozens of Western countries such as Huatsama and Russia. This range of hundreds of millions of miles northwest has long been included in the Mongolian territory by Temujin's sons and grandsons... And just last year, the Mongolians captured Dashi..."

Wu Qian's fingers fell on the Arabian Peninsula.

"Your Majesty, the Mongols' movements in the West are much greater than those in the East. The old minister didn't care much before. This time, he sent people to Wenzhou and Fuzhou to summon local big cannibals who came to our Song Dynasty to do business or take refuge. He asked. He learned that the big cannibals should have been captured by the Mongols, and this year the Mongols suddenly overwhelmed the enemy because their war in the West was very smooth. Now they have finally freed up their hands to annex my Song Dynasty..."

"This... this... the Mongols' troops were so powerful that the entire West was occupied by them?" As Wu Qian said, Zhao Yun's face became paler and paler, and in the end he was even a little unsteady, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

Just like when Wu Qian first heard Zhao Qi analyze the world situation and the territory controlled by the Mongols, it was a feeling of terror to the core.

If Zhao Qi had not emerged in the Song Dynasty at this time, basically no one would know the true strength of the Mongols and the current world pattern, because the one who knows the most about the East and the West was actually the Mongols.

They fought and captured almost most of Asia and Europe, with territory ranging from the Pacific Ocean to the Arctic Ocean, spanning the entire Eurasian continent. They were the largest empire in human history, no doubt about it.

It was the barbaric expansion of the Mongols that brought advanced technologies such as gunpowder, papermaking, and compass from the East to the West, and at the same time brought Western religions and cultures to the East.

This is the most barbaric fusion history of Eastern and Western civilizations in human history, and it is the result of the massacre and conquest of nearly 200 million people.

As for such a huge military operation, the Mongols made three Western expeditions, but the Song people knew almost nothing and no one went to collect and inquire. When Zhao Qi, the shit-stick who had traveled over, said it, it was actually too late. The Mongols had already set their sights on the Song Dynasty, which was dead but not stiff.

"Your Majesty, the Mongols are barbaric and cruel. They burn and kill and loot wherever they go. If the cities and countries that do not surrender, almost all the royal families and the people will be massacred or even the entire city will be burned to death. This time, the Mongolian soldiers are in a state of obscurity, and there is only one purpose, that is, to destroy our Song Dynasty. If we cannot defeat it, our Song Dynasty will suffer a lot. How many old ministers will be left in the last 60 million people will not dare to think about it. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, China has never experienced such a disaster of being destroyed by foreign races. If Mongolia takes over, even if we die, what will we face in the nine springs to meet the ancestors of China and ancestors..."

Amid the pouring rainstorm and lightning, Zhao Yun leaned on the big chair with a pale face, and said with his lips trembling, "I don't know what you said, but the Mongolians are so strong. I have not tried hard to do what you ask me to do, but I can't beat it!"

"Your Majesty, I have millions of soldiers in the Song Dynasty, and the imperial finances can still support it. Although the future is unpredictable, we must not be timid or concessional. My three hundred years of Song Dynasty and the life and death of 60 million people are all due to Your Majesty. You must cheer up. After detailed speculation, the Mongols are not as fierce and domineering as they are, as long as we unite and work together to deal with it, if we win this battle, it may be the time when our Song Dynasty is at a turnaround!"
