"Your Majesty, the criminals believe that it should be the best time to attack the Song Dynasty. Although the Song Dynasty is rich, the country is rich but the people are not strong. The reason is that corrupt officials are rampant and the court has lost all their hearts. The most important thing is that the emperor is now a mentally retarded, and everything has to be handed over to the old thief Jia Sidao, and there are many people who look down on him. If such a Song Dynasty is not taken now, then he will never find such a good opportunity again."

"Oh?" A few words made Kublai Khan even more interested. "According to what he said, now is the best time?"

“That’s right!”

"But we have just obtained a large area of ​​land on the West Road, and there are millions of people and countless troops here. Although they have surrendered to my feet now, we must slowly digest it, otherwise we will fear that we will produce something that will happen in the future."

Lu Wenhuan had already thought about how to deal with it, so he immediately said, "Your Majesty, what the criminals want to say is that the matter in these places is just a disease of scabies, and it is not worth worrying. As long as you can fundamentally defeat the Song Dynasty, you can make these people lose their determination to resist. If he has no banner, what else can he use to compete with our Dayuan? So it is okay to digest these places, but it doesn't take too much time. You just need to attack. As long as you defeat the Song Dynasty, they will naturally disappear."

"So do you think Ezhou is easy to fight? I have been fighting for you for 15 years, and consumed countless military supplies. It can almost be said that I have consumed all the things brought back from the West. I finally took it down here. Do you think our Dayuan can organize a battle of such a scale in a short time?" To be honest, Kublai Khan was really heartbroken about Lu Wenhuan, and he actually told all such secret matters, but in fact this is not a secret. Both sides had already consumed everything they could consume here. Dayuan consumed supplies, while Dasong was a warable soldier. In fact, both sides reached the end of their strength at this time.

Lu Wenhuan was indeed fully prepared. This conversation had already passed in his mind many times. He stopped and jumped down and knelt in front of Kublai Khan's horse. "Your Majesty, if you can trust the criminal, then please give the criminal a man. The criminal is willing to atone for his merits and abide by the vanguard of our Dayuan army. If you can't take this place within three months, the criminal is willing to come and see you."

"Oh?" Kublai Khan was also stunned for a moment. What he didn't expect was that Lu Wenhuan was so confident. "As far as I know, Ezhou has gathered 200,000 elite troops of the Song Dynasty at this time, more than twice as many as Xiangyang. How dare you say such things?"

"Your Majesty, there is only one Xiangyang in the world." Lu Wenhuan said firmly.

Almost at the same time, Boyan was also communicating with A Shu about their concerns. This time, A Shu did not hide it but directly told the problems he encountered when he fought with Zhang Shu. At the beginning, Boyan was still very calm and thought it was just a disease of scabies. But when he heard that Zhang Shu had defeated the Yuan army in Xiangfan area and died directly or indirectly under his army, he couldn't believe it, and stared at A Shu with wide eyes and didn't say anything for a long time.

A Shu also felt the burning eyes and didn't dare to say anything more for a moment, but he thought in his heart that you were so shocked. If he told you that he still had more than 20,000 prisoners in his hands, you would really fall off the horse. However, he didn't dare to say these words because they were too wide and it wouldn't be a good thing to say too much.

"So how are you going to deal with it?" Boyan finally regained his calmness. What he was going to listen to now was what kind of solution A Shu wanted.

"Now I have found out that Zhang thief gathered around Shennongjia to settle down. I don't think he can give him time to breathe. If this person is full of wings, it will be a huge danger for us. Now he should be wiped out as soon as possible. I plan to reorganize the troops and soldiers after going back this time, and I must conquer him and his evil deeds in one go."

Boyan thought about it and said with a little embarrassedly, "Your Majesty is difficult to agree. You should know that Your Majesty's thoughts are now on Ezhou. Ezhou is our main goal. Now you want to waste military supplies without reason. How can Your Majesty agree? Can you send small troops to wipe out him?"

A Shu sighed, "It's really not possible. Zhang Zhei is a very good at fighting and is good at using firearms. He has no less than 20,000 now. If we can't gather 100,000 people, I'm afraid we won't be able to wipe him out."

"100,000 people?" Boyan shook his head repeatedly. "This is impossible! You only used 250,000 people to capture Xiangfan. A small Zhang Shun is still in the deep mountains and the environment is harsh. Maybe if we don't hit him, he will starve to death. For such a person, it's ridiculous to send out 100,000 people, right?"

"Prime Minister, Brother Boyan, I'm not an exaggeration. This Zhang Shun is really our strong enemy. If you accidentally do, he will really kill us."

"Hahaha" Boyan looked at A Shu's anxious expression and immediately laughed out loud, "What you said is too terrible. Not to mention a small Zhang Shun, even the entire Song Dynasty is just a lewd in my eyes. It's too sarcastic to encircle Zhang Shun by 100,000 people. Otherwise, if you really think that Zhang Shun would be a problem, then use 50,000 people and don't use cavalry. Anyway, you can't use cavalry in a place like Shennongjia, why do you have to let them die? Bring back more artillery and thunder in your palm. I have started mass production recently. Although it still cannot reach the manufacturing level of Song dogs, it can also be approached. I will give you 100,000 people this time, and you took it to razor the place to the ground. Why do you have to say this here?"

As soon as A Shu heard this, he knew that Boyan was willing to let him act privately, and immediately said gratefully, "Brother Boyan is more kind than I should remember."

"What kind of grace is this what the ministers should do. We are all for the sake of the Dayuan?" He said this and suddenly looked at Alitai in the distance, and then said thoughtfully, "Don't there still tens of thousands of Western Regions troops in Alitai? After returning this time, his Mongolian army will be incorporated. The Western Regions army can be left behind for him and let him go. This is also a good opportunity to exercise."

A Shu immediately understood and nodded solemnly.
