Chapter 1036: Gambling Everything

Sanhe City, Kehan Tent.

The tied-up Zhang Hongfan was finally able to meet the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan.

“Speak, what exactly happened last night?”

Kublai Khan had already calmed down from his anger. He was a mighty Lord and would not let his emotions dictate his actions. If not, Zhang Hongfan would not be able to survive till now.

Zhang Hongfan relaxed a little. He did not dare to hide anything and descriptively told everything that had happened. Whilst describing it, Zhang Hongfan did not add in his personal emotions and gave a true picture.

Kublai Khan had his own judgement, which was why Zhang Hongfan did not dare play any tricks. One had to say that Zhang Hongfan had a great understanding of Kublai Khan.

Listening to his words, Kublai Khan continued and asked, “What plan do you have?” These words were in truth pardoning Zhang Hongfan’s death sentence and giving him a chance to atone for his sins.

Zhang Hongfan suppressed his emotions and simply said, “The defeat yesterday was due to our military unity, but it did not really affect the core of our army. As long as we plan well, with your majesty personally leading and raising their morale, we would definitely breakthrough.”

Looking at the situation, Zhang Hongfan was not dejected at all and appeared to be really confident.

“Be more specific.”

“Through these few days of battles, I have realized that the enemy has a fatal weakness.” Zhang Hongfan used his killing method and slowly said, “During the earlier period of time, we sent the Chinese to build the castles, but the South Song troops did not stop them. Through this, we can see that they are soft and unwilling to attack their own kind.”

“You’re saying?” Kublai Khan was slowly getting more and more interested.

“As long as we gather a batch of Chinese people and chase them to the frontlines, and then force them to charge at the city gates whilst shooting at them, Lin’an will open up,” Zhang Hongfan said.

“Once the city gates open, Lin’an city would definitely fall.”

If there was a Chinese person standing here, he would definitely want to skin and boil Zhang Hongfan alive.

“This person was simple too evil.”

For his personal honor, Zhang Hongfan was actually going to sacrifice the lives of numerous Chinese. One must not forget that although Zhang Hongfan did not grow up under South Song rule, his blood was pure Chinese blood.

Kublai Khan was really happy, as Zhang Hongfan’s suggestion was exactly what he wanted. He had already decided that after taking down Lin’an City, disregarding the opposition from the Han officials, he would massacre the city for three days.

There was no one who does not pay a blood price for killing Mongols.

Kublai Khan let the men untie Zhang Hongfan and spoke, “You are in charge of this matter. If you take down Lin’an, not only will you be pardoned, but you will even be promoted!”
