my days with tyrants

Chapter 265 If you kill 900, you will be the hero

Ceram.

While all the soldiers and civilians lined the road and knelt to greet him, King Yan of the Ming Dynasty, who was in full plate armor, rode into this ancient city under the protection of his personal guards.

"This king wants to build a temple here for the past merchants, in order to ask the Buddha to protect their journey. The king of Samarkand should not stop it?"

Zhu Di said with a smile.

Timur, who was walking alongside him, smiled stiffly...

"Of course not."

He said.

He just wants to coax this guy to withdraw his army quickly, and then go to rescue Andijan.

Besides, there is no point in stopping it.

Because the cities of Shymkent and Talas have been controlled by Zhu Di, he must also build in these cities. Can they be demolished after he leaves, then give him a reason to go south again.After all, now that Zhu Di has won the allegiance of Mongolia and Wala, he will join even every month. In the future, Ming Dynasty will definitely station troops in the land of seven rivers.It can be said that Hezhong will have to face the powerful enemy of the north in the future. Even if Zhu Di completely withdraws from Hezhong this time, he will have to maintain a humble attitude in the future.

What's more, Zhu Di may not return Shymkent and Talas to him.

"Your Excellency seems to be worried?

Are you afraid that I will take your place and won't leave?Your Excellency can rest assured that I am patrolling according to order, as long as your Excellency is loyal to Daming, I will not occupy your place and refuse to leave.

Shymkent, Talas will return it to you. "

Zhu Di said.

"I am naturally loyal to Daming."

Timur said with some surprise.

"Then I'm relieved, but I still have another task on this trip, which is to divide the borders of the various vassals in the Western Regions. After all, they are all ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and they can no longer fight each other like in the past. Your Excellency, the northern boundary is the city of Talas.

In addition, I will play, and ask Your Majesty to grant another country name.

After all, Samarkand is just your capital.

It is inappropriate to use the capital as the name of the country after all, not to mention that it also has the meaning of being uneducated. "

Zhu Di said.

"Everything is subject to Your Majesty."

Timur said.

This is not a bad thing for him, they are so far away from Da Ming, and Da Ming can't control him at first, so what kind of country title he likes to use is nothing more than to use it when interacting with Da Ming in the future, it is better than his previous string Inexplicably strong title.As for the interior, he is still the Sultan, this has nothing to do with his status in Ming Dynasty, the key is to return Shymkent and Talas to him, he doesn't care about such imaginary things.

In fact, he has no real national title at all now.

His identity is rather embarrassing.

Of course what he wants to do most is sweating profusely, but he is not from the Golden Family and has no qualifications.

Not to mention using Mongolian Khan, he is not qualified to use Chagatai Khan.

Forcibly claiming to be unreasonable.

On this point, no matter Hezhong or other places in the Western Regions, they are very resolute. You can use whatever title you like, but you are not qualified to use the name of Great Khan even if you use Chagatai Khan as a puppet. title.

And the highest level of their system is of course the Caliph.

But he also considered himself a Mongolian.

In fact, even in the original history, he did not try to use this title, and the Mongolian family is not interested in this title. The highest level in people's consciousness is the Great Khan. Yes, there is still pride in people's hearts, isn't the Caliph the one who was trampled to death by us?There is no market for this title in the Mongols, so he was the self-proclaimed Sultan until his death. After he made the Great Khan of the Western Chagatai Khanate a puppet, he claimed to rule the Western Chagatai Khanate and was recognized by the Great Khan.The Great Khan is the Great Khan, and the Sultan is the Sultan. He is still a subject of the Great Khan, but he also rules the fellow believers under the Great Khan as a Sultan. However, there are no other believers in the Western Chagatai Khanate, so the fact He is still the supreme ruler.

He was Prime Minister Cao of the Western Chagatai Khanate from beginning to end.

There is another title, which is the title of Shah he got after conquering Persia.

So he is now equivalent to the Sultan of the Western Chagatai Khanate, but the Great Khan is dead, and then he is also the Shah of Persia.

Now add a Ming vassal king.

Indeed humiliating.

but……

There is no harm in him strategically.

Because this means that he no longer has to worry about the safety of the rear. As long as he continues to show his loyalty to the Ming emperor, and then keeps paying tribute and sending envoys to bow his knees, then he can continue westward without distraction.

The world to the west is still vast.

He has not defeated the Ottoman Empire yet, nor has he destroyed the Delhi Sultanate.

There are countless conquerable lands ahead waiting for him to conquer.

However, the emperor of Ming Dynasty was too far away, so it was impossible to go west with all his strength. He knew this very well. In fact, during his Eastern Expedition in the original history, there was a saying that he never thought of marching into Daming. This will solve the Eastern Chagatai and the Northern Wara and other tribes, and then completely conquer the Mongolian tribes to obtain the title of Mongolian Great Khan that he dreamed of.

It's not that he doesn't know how long the journey to Daming is, and how difficult it is to supply supplies along the way.

Such an expedition would be tantamount to suicide.

He is not a nomad.

Regardless of whether it is in Hezhong or Khorasan, it is a complex economy of farming, nomadic and commercial living in cities.

He couldn't do without city supplies.

His westward expedition also jumped forward from city to city.

So this kind of surrender can give him a solid rear, and even Da Ming's new weapons, such as the binoculars he used, and the firearms and armor used by the Ming army in this war, all of which he can use. In exchange for these surrenders, he could even conquer the Ottoman Empire and march to New Rome.

What's the big deal if this little humiliation can be exchanged for these?

kneel down?

It's not like he hasn't knelt before.

Back then, he knelt at the feet of the bald black Lu Timur, but now he is not the same king in the river?
Hero!
We all know that we can kneel when we need to kneel.

"However, in the future, your tribute must be re-determined. Daming doesn't need those gems, but needs horses and camels. Your tribute is paid every three years. How about paying [-] horses and [-] camels at a time!"

Zhu Di said.

"If the Emperor Daming really makes an order, then even if I do my best, I will offer it to His Majesty."

Timur said with a smile.

This is a trivial matter for him. After all, he also went out to grab it, and just let Persia and other conquered cities go out.

"Well, the king of Samarkand is indeed faithful!"

Zhu Di said with a smile.

He then rode into the temple amid the humiliating prostration of a group of elders ahead.

Timur got off his horse quickly.

But this made it look like he was leading the horse and kicking the horse for His Royal Highness King Yan.

He didn't care.

However, the generals such as Hoyrchak behind him seemed to be furious. Zhu Di, who was riding a horse in the temple, was undoubtedly a huge humiliation to them, and then the horse was very rude as he walked pull.

however……

They looked at those Ming soldiers in heavy armor and riding horses, and they could only swallow this breath in the end.

And when Zhu Di was riding a horse to visit the temple, the city of Andiyan had also been captured.

"You traitors, you minions of the devil, the gods will not forgive you, you will be burned to ashes in the fire!"

The Emir of Andijan howled in despair.

Captured, he was watching his city fall into devastation.

There are raging fires everywhere, dead bodies everywhere, his woman is carried on the shoulders of the enemy, his wealth is held by the enemy to show off, and the buildings he built for generations are collapsing in the raging fire.The entire city was billowing with smoke, the sky was blackened, and the invaders galloping through his city on horseback were chopping off his brother's head with a knife.The horses trampled over the bodies of his loved ones, and the Oirat cavalry happily howled on his land, brandishing their scimitars.

And the leader of these intruders was Ha Zhi, who was also an old acquaintance with him.

Ha only ah!
What an ironic title.

"Drag him out!"

Ha just said indifferently.

What is there to care about? Now the city belongs to him, and he will use Andijan as his royal city in the future.

He negotiated with Ugzihashha that the north of the Syr Darya is counted as Wala, and the latter can build the king's city in Akheshi. Andijan, Uzgen, Osh and other cities belong to him, but Oara can nomadic in this area, after all, this place is very big.

And he does need the protection of Ugzihashha now.

After the Ming army withdrew, he had tens of thousands of people, how to suppress the rebels?
You have to rely on Wala.

Of course, before that, you have to kill as many as possible.

Otherwise, if he added Wala, he might not be able to suppress the resistance here.

"Kill, kill them all, avenge our dead relatives!"

Then he raised his knife and roared.

Accompanied by the curse of the Emir of Andijan, he led Dugrat's soldiers and continued to kill wildly in this city.

city ​​wall.

"Your trick is really vicious!"

Zhang Fu looked at Ha Zhi and the Dugrat soldiers who were killing with interest.

"I didn't force him, he was driven by his own desire."

Yang Feng sat on the city wall leisurely, his legs were still hanging down, and he was still holding raisins in his hands. Behind him were two little beauties, tremblingly serving this devilish man.Ambassador Yang didn't just accept little girls along the way. In fact, no matter which city they captured, people like Haji would pick out the most beautiful women and dedicate them to him.

So Ambassador Yang has hundreds of beauties around him, although he has no interest.

After all, they are too young.

But these are still his public concubine.

Of course, it's not just him, his uncle also has hundreds of them.

But now the Ming army is watching the excitement, especially those in the Shenji Camp, who are admiring the destruction of the city on the city wall. The Ming army does not need to rob it, because everything in the Emir Mansion belongs to them, and Ambassador Yang has already It is clear, when we go back, there will be one person, two horses, two camels, and two young women. As for the amount of gold and silver, it depends on how much is found from the emir's house.

So there is no need to bother them with strenuous work like looting.

After all, the resistance of the enemy who is cornered is still very strong.

The Ming army had to try to avoid casualties.

So far, the Ming army following him, including Zhang Fu's, Tan Yuan's, and Song Xuan's troops, add up to five thousand and five thousand. Counting from the time they crossed the Iron Gate, the casualties are less than one thousand and the deaths are only four hundred.

It is mainly the defense of Aksu and the previous battle in Uzgen.

This casualty has little effect on morale.

At present, there are still 800 people who are still following, including some minor injuries that do not affect the battle.

"So they say you are a devil. In fact, he is not unreasonable. You are really like a demon bewitching them, guiding them, and even opening the door for them and telling them what to do."

Tan Yuan said.

"What am I? Compared to Timur, I am kind like a good student. Do you know what he likes to do most? Conquering cities, killing them all, and piling up their heads in Beijing, especially all the women. Capture and leave the children to starve to death.

I still take care of the kids at least.

Later generations estimated to him that during his 30 years of expansion, he killed close to 2000 million people.

To kill one is a crime, to kill ten thousand is to be a hero, and to kill nine million is to be a hero among heroes.

After killing nearly 2000 million people, he is the overlord of the entire West. From the deserts of Egypt to the ice and snow of Eastern Europe, from the Mediterranean Sea to the Tianshan Mountains, all countries and nations tremble under his feet.So much so that he later tried to recruit 80 troops, and then crossed the Western Regions to expedition to Daming, but before he reached the southern border, he died of illness on the way.

Look, after killing so many people, not only did he become the overlord of a generation, but he also died well. "

Yang Feng said.

Tamerlane was notoriously cruel to their fellow teachers.

Capture a city, kill all the men and build pyramids with human heads, capture all the women, throw the children down and starve to death, West Asia and the Middle East regard him as a devil, he is the most terrifying in this land after Hulagu's Western Expedition memory, so Tukashigar is really his routine operation!

This is also an important reason why Yang Feng didn't want to kill him.

He still has a lot of work to do.

He also had to defeat the Ottoman Empire and step on the Ottoman Sultan as a horse.

He has not destroyed the Delhi Sultanate.

His bloodbath was the main reason for the chaotic war in the Indus Valley.

These are what Yang Feng likes to see.

So he wanted to humiliate Timur, let Timur's prestige fall to the ground, and then when he and Zhu Di withdrew and let Timur have no worries again, he had to expand on a larger scale to re-establish his prestige in front of his subordinates.He wants to use more victories to ensure that his subordinates will not rebel, and lead them to plunder continuously, so that they will forget this humiliation in the face of new victories one after another.

To forget the shame of being slaughtered in one's own city by slaughtering other cities.

Use the capture of other countries to forget the shame of being penetrated into the country by others.

To make up for the plundered wealth by plundering other people's wealth.

Then bloody West.

Even when necessary, Yang Feng doesn't mind giving him some help. Of course, the premise is that he can come up with enough exchange, and he can even encourage him to continue to fight all the way to Constantinople, or let him march to Eastern Europe. He continued to march towards Poland and Lithuania with the Kipchaks who surrendered to him.

Return Europe to fear of the whip of God.

He wouldn't live for a few years anyway.

In terms of time, he still has less than ten years to live.

Almost enough.

A country like his would immediately fall into civil strife as soon as he died.
