Mohammed's crown prince, Si Rahei, was originally his youngest son, but because his mother was a native of Kangli, he was favored by the bald Genkedun and was made crown prince, while the eldest son, Zalandin, was driven out of the capital because his mother was Indian, and was sent to the remote south to defend the city.

After this meeting, it took a great deal of effort to comfort the Turkmen generals, and the felted city guard Jorikhan was finally persuaded to return to the city. Later, he called Yinalsu and said to him, "You are making trouble for me, and now that the Mongols are about to invade the city, you are still causing trouble for me, what do you want to do?"

But he said indifferently: "My goal in the city of Zara is too big, and if you transfer me back to Samarkand, the Mongols may withdraw their troops and horses when they see that I am not in the city." ”

Mohammed said angrily: "You are too naïve, you have caused such a big mistake in the city of False Thara, and you want to pat your ass and leave? ”

But he said, "What a mistake have I made? Isn't it all the treasures?

"What? sent it to me?" said Mohammed, astonished, "I have not seen any treasure from you, and I am not rare." ”

Yinareshu immediately cut him off: "You haven't seen it, go back to the palace and ask my aunt, and she will tell you how many treasures she has taken from me." ”

Mohammed was so angry that he slumped into his chair: "You, you...... In any case, you must go back to the city of Zara at once, and prepare to defend the city, and in a few days I will personally go to inspect it, and if I do anything wrong, I will have to deal with you!"

Seeing that the king was really angry, he had to stand up, slowly leave his seat, and walked out, but when he reached the door, he turned back and said, "As soon as the Mongols withdraw their troops, you will transfer me back to Samargan, or I will go to Yulongjie Chicheng to find my aunt." ”

The Jade Dragon Jie Chiyuan was the old capital of Khorezm, located between the Black Sea and the Aral Sea in the lower reaches of the Amu Darya River, and was garrisoned by the king's mother, the Bald Genkedun. Later, when Mohammad conquered the east and west, expanding his territory to the west across the Black Sea, the Urals and the Aral Sea, the Volga River valley in the north, the Indus River and the Persian Gulf in the south, and the Pamir Plateau in the east, he moved the capital to the original River Province, which was later renamed Samarkan.

The new city of Samarkan, located in the middle of the Syr Darya River and the Amu Darya River, was the place where the founding emperor of the Western Liao Kingdom, Yelu Dashi, established the province of Hezhong, which was later annexed by Mohammed, and he built a new capital here, which became the political, economic, and military center of the country of Khorezm.

Mohammad had identified Genghis Khan's military objectives in the north, so he focused his defense on the castles along the Syr Darya River. Later, he changed his mind from the news obtained from the reconnaissance, and focused his defense on the new capital of Samarkan, and attempted to engage in a strategic decisive battle with Genghis Khan here to annihilate the Mongol army in one fell swoop when the Mongol siege was frustrated and the troops were exhausted.

For this reason, Mohammed set up the base camp of his command of the whole army in Samarkand, and deployed his strategic reserve forces mainly in Turkestan, Samarkgan, and Barihe. In order to strengthen Samargan's defenses, Mohammed hurriedly collected taxes from his people three times in less than a year, mobilized craftsmen from all over the country, and built an eighty-four-kilometer-long wall in Samarkan in preparation for confrontation with the Mongols.

The king, who had a great temper and had always been arrogant and conceited, climbed the newly built city wall, looked in the direction of northeastern Mongolia, and said: "Genghis Khan, I will let you have no return, not to freeze to death on the iceberg and snow peak, but also to die under my city." ”

Before the words fell, the guards came over and reported: "Report to the king, the queen mother has sent someone to see you." ”

When Mohammad heard this, he had to go down the wall, and he could not help thinking about what trouble the queen mother might cause for herself, although she lived in the Jade Dragon Jachi, far from Samargan, but she often gave orders on the affairs of the state.

The king thought about his thoughts all the way, and when he saw the visitor, he learned that the queen mother wanted him to rush to the Jade Dragon Jiechi as soon as possible. He hurriedly asked, "Is the queen mother well, is she sick?"

"The Queen Mother is in good health. ”

"Is there anything the Queen Mother is looking for me?"

"I don't know, the Queen Mother only said that the king should go to Yulong Jiechi quickly. ”

Mohammed had no choice but to hand over the affairs of the state to the crown prince and the general Tahai Khan, and then he was surrounded by a hundred guards, rushed to the side of the queen mother, and immediately asked: "The Mongols are about to come to the city, do you know what the queen mother is looking for me?"

"I am also looking for you about the Mongol invasion, and those Turkmen should not be gullible and do not let them defend the city alone, lest they rebel against the flood." ”

Mohammad said disapprovingly: "We can't generalize about this matter, some Turkmen are honest and trustworthy, brave and resourceful in battle, can they crowd out others?

Bald Gen Kedun looked at him unhappily and said, "Every time you talk to me about this, you always feel awkward with me, as if I will harm you in a big matter, it is really unreasonable. ”

Mohammed had no choice but to say: "The queen mother should cultivate her self-cultivation, cherish her body, and worry less about the political affairs of the country." ”

Bald Gen Kedun's face changed, and he shouted angrily: "Can't I ask about state affairs?" Ah, now that your wings are stiff, I can't even say a word?"

Mohammad hurriedly explained: "Please calm the anger of the queen mother, now that the Mongolian soldiers and horses are coming in a mountain and sea, I am busy guarding major affairs day and night, how can I have time to argue with the queen mother here, I really can't accompany me." After saying this, Mohammed got up and walked out, so angry that the bald Gen Kedun wept and made a fuss, and scolded him incessantly.

The next day, the power-hungry Empress Dowager summoned her nephew, Hondu Rasi, the younger brother of Yinalshu, and asked him to go to the border city in the north to serve as a prisoner.

It turned out that the city of False Assassin Yinalsu was worried that Qiulihanf would not actively defend the city, and once the felt was occupied by the Mongols, the city would be in no danger to defend and become the next target of the Mongols. So Enalsu sent a messenger to his aunt Genkedun the Bald, asking her to persuade the king to send his brother Hondurat to Felt to defend the city in place of Jorihanf. After seeing his son, the mother and son quarreled before he could say this suggestion, and the king walked away in annoyance, but the queen mother, who was stubborn by nature, still insisted on her opinion and sent Hong Du Rasi to the post.

However, she only let this young nephew serve as the overseer of the army, and she was afraid that he would have no combat experience, and that the soldiers of Felt would not obey his command, so she did not dare to let him replace Jorihanf, so she finally made concessions to her son King Mohammed.

Filled with a sigh of rage, King Mohammed returned to Samarkan and immediately rushed to the city of Zara with his retinue to check on the defense of his cousin Enalsa. Who knew that Yinareshu was not in the city, but in the city mansion he was eating and drinking with a goblet in his hand, and enjoying the song and dance.

Immediately, the king was so angry that he shouted: "The Mongol army is about to fight, but you are looking for pleasure in the palace, which is too unusual. ”

"Please calm the king's anger, I have strengthened the city walls, and the fortifications have been added to the city, and I have ordered the defenders of the city to patrol day and night. ”

Mohammed said impatiently: "What is the use of just ordering and arranging, and you don't personally direct and inspect it?"

At this, the king glared at him fiercely and said, "Do you know that Genghis Khan will definitely make your city the first target?"

"This, this, of course I know. ”

"Also, Genghis Khan will regard you as his primary enemy, have you ever thought about this?"

When Yina Le Shu heard this, he couldn't help but tremble: "I want to ...... too I thought about it, but I always thought that the Mongols couldn't attack it, and how much dry food could they bring with them after such a long journey?

Mohammed interrupted him with an angry wave of his hand, pointed to the head of the Enals, and warned him: "Hutu, you have not a human head on your neck, but a pig's head, and you think that Genghis Khan has come to play with you? ”

Then Mohammad repeatedly explained the benefits and disadvantages to Yinalsu, and told him to focus on defending the city, and to hurry up and transport all military equipment to the city, to transport more rolling logs and stones, to strengthen the defense, and to lead the soldiers to do a good job of defending the city wholeheartedly.
