Chapter 1026 – When the Ruler Is Young, the Country Is in Doubt
After exchanging greetings, Zhang Shijie explained the Mongol army situation to Ouyang Shuo.
The more he heard, the blacker his face turned.
“Gaia is finding trouble with us!”
In history, the main general attacking South Song was Boyan, Zhang Hongfan when one talked about the Battle of Yashan. Talking about Zhang Hongfan, he was a person who had a lot of controversy around him.
His father, Zhang Rou, was a Chinese person who lived in Jin Country. He was also a strong local hegemon, fighting head to head against the Mongol army before losing and joining them.
Zhang Rou was 19 when Zhang Hongfan was born. At that point, Jin Country was destroyed for four years. Hence, Zhang Hongfan was a Chinese person who grew up under Mongol rule.
Due to such a childhood, for him to become a Mongol general was understandable. However, he was the main general of the Mongol army in the Battle of Yashan, and he could be considered the one that destroyed South Song.
Since he had the blood of the Chinese in his veins, he was naturally blamed in history and humiliated.
Due to the huge damage that the Battle of Yashan caused to Chinese civilization, Ouyang Shuo did not have a good impression of Zhang Hongfan. If they met on the battlefield, he would definitely kill him.
In the Battle Map, apart from them, the huge boss of the Mongol Yuan army, Kublai Khan, also came, making this totally different from history.
Who was Kublai Khan? He was the emperor who started the Yuan dynasty. Speaking about this, one had to mention the experiences of this Mongol Kehan as well as the changes from the Mongol Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty.
After the death of Genghis Khan, the third Son Ögedei Khan became the ruler, while the fourth Son Tolui was in charge of 80% of the Mongol army.
Genghis Khan’s arrangements would result in the splitting of the Mongol Empire. While Ögedei Khan was in rule, to reduce problems, he assassinated Tolui in secret.
After Ögedei Khan’s death, his eldest son, Guyuk, took over. However, he was unskilled and died after three years of being in power. Tolui’s eldest son, Mongke, rose up in power and stole the position of ruler.
Since then, the Tolui family had been in control of the position of ruler until the destruction of the Yuan Dynasty.
Mongke was an amazing figure, and the Europeans termed him as the whip of god. When he was in power, he launched the third Mongol invasion toward the west, and the land he took over was even more than his grandfather, Genghis Khan.
Helplessly, he did not have a good life. While he was attacking South Song together with his brother Kublai Khan, he died. Not only did this cause a five year battle for succession between Kublai Khan and Ariq Böke, but it also caused the west conquering mission of the Mongols to stop.
At this point, the army was already at the Mediterranean and were preparing to attack Egypt. If it were not for the sudden death of Mongke, the entire history of the world would probably be changed.
