Usurping the Mongols: My Father-in-Law is Genghis Khan

Of course, Crow Werewolf Huhan is a seasoned strategist.

Although he was very excited, he cautiously suggested, "Should we send troops to suppress the city of Wologai now? Otherwise, I'm afraid this city will be ruined by the Balu Battalion?"

"Uh... no need." Temujin considered it slightly and rejected Huhan's proposal, saying, "Wolves travel a thousand miles to eat meat, and dogs travel a thousand miles to eat excrement. The Balu Battalion has proven that they are wolves, not dogs, so they deserve their due. Guards!"

"Here!" Zhe Le Mie bowed slightly and responded respectfully.

Temujin ordered in a deep voice: "Convey my decree to Zhao Shuo, increase the overall share of the Balu Battalion to 20%. Also, send troops into the city to suppress and gather the Balu Battalion in about an hour."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhe Le Mie accepted the order and left.

Then, Temujin looked at Li Anquan with a smile and said, "How about it? Prime Minister of Western Xia, what do you think of my Mongolian Balu Battalion?"

Yesterday, Temujin only allowed Zhao Shuo and Huhan to meet Li Anquan to discuss the conditions for Western Xia's surrender. Today, he let Zhao Shuo be responsible for commanding the Balu Battalion to attack the city of Wologai, and he personally summoned Li Anquan to watch the battle together.

Is that your Balu Battalion?

Those are the elite infantry of my Western Xia!

You are using our Western Xia infantry to attack our Western Xia's strong city, do you have no shame?

At this time, Li Anquan's heart was truly bleeding.

He tried to put on an awkward smile and said, "Genghis Khan's Balu Battalion is really like divine soldiers descending from the sky, invincible. The small city of Wologai is just a mantis trying to stop a chariot."

"Oh? The small city of Wologai is a mantis trying to stop a chariot? Then what about Keyimen, guarded by your son Li Chengzhen?" Temujin asked with a smile, with a hint of teasing in his tone.

"This... this..." Li Anquan was sweating on his forehead and speechless.

Temujin did not embarrass him, and said, "Go back. Go and discuss the conditions proposed by my Mongolia with your ruler. Just remember to go quickly and return quickly. When my Mongolia breaks Keyimen, it will not be the same conditions as before."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Li Anquan was pardoned and left in a hurry, his back looking particularly embarrassed.

......

......

Two hours later.

Da da da~~

Zhao Shuo entered the city of Wologai under the escort of five hundred Black Riders.

The Mongolian regular army had already entered the city and began to clean up the battlefield. They piled up the corpses of the Western Xia defenders into small mountains, throwing them away like discarded old sacks. Occasionally, a few corpses were still twitching slightly, but the Mongolians mercilessly added a knife to completely end their pain.

Most of the houses in the city had been burned down, with wisps of black smoke rising from the ruins. In some houses that were not completely burned down, Mongolian soldiers searched door-to-door, dragging the men to the streets to kill them.

The treasury was the place that the Mongolian army paid the most attention to and had been strictly protected.

Women and children were concentrated in the square in the center of the city, with cries and pleas intertwined, but no one paid any attention.

Zhao Shuo didn't have time to pay attention either.

He came to the reassembled Balu Battalion. The original 11,000-plus Balu Battalion now had only 7,000-plus people left.

They had been disarmed again, but they had no complaints.

Because, according to Temujin's instructions, the Balu Battalion's share reached 20% of all spoils, and was distributed preferentially. Most people received more than ten taels of silver, which was the best reward for their heroic fighting.

Then, Zhao Shuo began to give a speech.

He reconfirmed to the soldiers the agreement that after three bloody battles, they would be promoted to ordinary people. Now they had already fought one bloody battle, and they only needed to fight two more bloody battles.

Zhao Shuo's private promise that cutting off three heads would be enough to be promoted to ordinary people was also fulfilled. Together with several people who had made great contributions in this siege, a total of thirty-two people were officially freed from their status as Balu Battalion slaves and became citizens of the Great Mongolian Empire.

The pre-war announcement that the first to ascend would be rewarded with two beauties was also fulfilled on the spot.

He even brought the latest extra reward from Genghis Khan: for three consecutive days, all Balu Battalion soldiers would have enough wine and meat. For seven consecutive days, a Western Xia female slave would be arranged to serve them every day to relieve the fatigue of this battle.

"Are you willing to fight another battle? To earn new glory for yourselves with your swords?"

"Willing!"

"The next level is Keyimen of Western Xia, what are you going to do?"

"Trample them! Kill them all!"

The Balu Battalion soldiers shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky!

It's not that they are sick, it's just that they really feel the possibility of progress here in Mongolia.

First of all, their lives are in the hands of the Mongolians. If they don't fight, they will die. If they fight, they may be able to make a career.

What happened today let them know that as long as they make contributions, these Mongolians will really reward them! There is no moisture at all.

Soldiers originally put their heads on their belts, and under heavy rewards, who is afraid of death?

The only thing to fear is injustice!

And what they suffered in the Western Xia army before was unfair treatment.

Now that there is a clear upward channel, they can indeed fight without fear of death!

......

......

Seven days later, in the capital of Western Xia, Zhongxing Prefecture, the Imperial Palace.

"Your Majesty, the Mongolians are like heavenly soldiers and generals, and our Xia Kingdom is really unable to resist them. They use our Western Xia elite infantry as Balu Battalion officers and soldiers, which is a stroke of genius. If it really doesn't work, you should agree to these few conditions."

Li Anquan was really frightened by the battle of Wologai, and he frantically persuaded Li Chunyou to agree to the five conditions of the Mongolians.

Li Chunyou looked embarrassed and pondered, "Ceding land, paying reparations, making annual tributes, and completely betraying the Jin Kingdom to pledge allegiance to Mongolia? If such agreed conditions are agreed upon, I'm afraid my throne will not be stable!"

This is not alarmist talk.

Western Xia suddenly transitioned from a tribal system to a feudal system. Those Tangut nobles held a large number of private soldiers in their hands. If the Western Xia emperor was too humiliating to the country, they would not mind changing the emperor.

Seeing this, Li Anquan tentatively asked, "Then what does Your Majesty mean..."

"Hmph, with such agreed conditions, the Mongolians are really bullying my Xia Kingdom too much! I don't believe it, my son Li Chengzhen is guarding Keyimen, with my Western Xia's last 50,000 Qinsheng troops and 200,000 Xiang soldiers as backing, only defending and not attacking, can't he defend Keyimen?

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" Li Anquan was anxious, his talent was after all a little stronger than Li Chunyou, and he knew the severity of this battle: "Genghis Khan said that when the Mongolian army breaks Keyimen, it will not be this condition."

Li Chunyou raised an eyebrow and said, "Didn't I just say that? He can't break Keyimen!"

"If Your Majesty wants to say that..." Li Anquan said helplessly: "Now, I only ask Your Majesty for one thing: in case, I mean in case. If the Mongolians really break Keyimen, my Western Xia still has to seek peace. At that time, can you not let me go to negotiate again?

Li Chunyou said without hesitation: "Okay, it's up to you."

In Li Anquan's view, if these conditions are agreed upon now, he can barely support it with his power and prestige.

But if Keyimen is breached by the Mongolian army, and he agrees to even more humiliating conditions, he may become the biggest traitor in Western Xia, and everyone will be punished.

Li Chunyou did not realize the danger of defending Keyimen. His heart was full of anger at the Mongolians and a desire for victory, but he ignored the humiliation he would face if he was defeated!
