Finally, they surrounded Jiayang Pass with 60,000 men, and secretly ambushed Luofeng Slope with 20,000 Black Wolf Cavalry and 30,000 infantry, waiting for the Princess of Lingnan to bring troops to their aid.

They were preparing to crush the Meng couple in one fell swoop.

As for their son, Tolui didn't even consider him a threat.

What reputation could a born eunuch have that would make the Lingnan army risk their lives for him?

At that time, taking advantage of the fact that Lingnan is leaderless, we can directly march in and take over Lingnan in one fell swoop.

Once they take over Lingnan, the Ming Dynasty will be like meat in the mouth of the Liao Kingdom, which can eat it however they want.

If the plan succeeds, Tolui will be the most meritorious prince in the Liao Dynasty, with the most troops under his command.

When he becomes the crown prince, who will dare to object?

Why should I compete with that useless older brother?

As for Yelü Chucai, it was for the sake of the Princess of Lingnan.

Everyone in the entire Liao Kingdom knew that his uncle was a womanizer.

Especially those noble wives.

If he hadn't had an affair with the late emperor's concubine, Yelü Hongji might not have become the emperor of Liao.

When he parted ways with his uncle, Yelü Chucai specifically instructed him to capture the Princess of Lingnan alive.

He wanted to enjoy the Lingnan Princess's company in front of Meng Sanguan and on the battlefield.

At that time, they will send men to attack Meng Sanguan on one hand, and men to attack his wife on the other.

Isn't that wonderful?

Thinking of this, Tolui was somewhat disappointed. He hadn't expected that the Princess of Lingnan was so timid that she dared not come to his rescue.

They only sent such a small force to their deaths.

That's fine, even though Meng Xian isn't as beautiful as the princess.

But he was, after all, a very famous figure in Lingnan.

Bringing her back would at least offer some consolation to her uncle.
