The next day, when the water in the palace had flowed away, there were more than 8,000 corpses inside, and money and jewels were found in the palace, and there were twelve carts full of them. Jochi and Chagatai saw that they had never seen so much possessions, so they divided a lot of their own privately, and Ogedai had to let the guards hide part of it.

When the veteran Borshu found out, he said to his face: "No one has the right to enjoy the prisoners and property, and they should all be given to the Great Khan, is it appropriate for you to do this?"

Jochi and Ogedai did not dare to say anything, but Chagatai said: "My father Khan has already said that from the east where the sun rises to the west where the sun sets, all belong to my Mongol empire. ”

But soon Genghis Khan learned of this, and the conqueror of the world was so angry that he was furious, and scolded: "This is worth it, this is worth it? Is there still your father Khan in his eyes?"

As the veteran Borshu said, when the Mongol army captured the town, all the prisoners and property were not allowed to be privately divided, which Genghis Khan had long stipulated. For they gathered together the captives and their goods, and divided them into portions, and the princes and generals who did not join the expedition also had a portion. At that time, Genghis Khan implemented this system of unified distribution of spoils, which was aimed at facilitating unified command and mobilizing the enthusiasm of the officers and men of the whole army.

However, after the capture of Yulong Jiechi this time, the three brothers Jochi, Chagatai and Ogedei privately divided the prisoners and property, and did not share them with other soldiers or contribute anything to Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan was so angry that he refused to meet them for three days.

This frightened the three brothers, and Ogedai went to the veteran Borshu and asked the old-timer to come forward to persuade their father Khan, and Borshu said to him: "When I was in Yulong Jiechi, I have already persuaded you, but not only did you not listen, but said that I was nosy, what are you doing now coming to me?"

Wokotai said: "In Yulong Jiechi, we did not listen to the old general's words and made mistakes. Now that we realize that mistakes are very harmful, don't you old people help?"

Borshu laughed, "I really can't do anything about you, okay, I'll go and talk to your Great Khan, but you have to find another person." ”

Wokotai hurriedly asked: "Which one are you looking for, veteran, please speak." ”

"Go to the chief magistrate, who speaks more than me, and let us both go together. ”

When Wokotai heard this, he immediately said, "Okay, I'll go to him, our uncle, the wise magistrate." ”

After Ogedai left, Borshu went to see Genghis Khan and said: "Report to the Great Khan, now that Yulong Jiechi has been captured, this victory has further strengthened the momentum of our army, and it is really majestic and famous all over the world." As far as I know, the three sons of the Great Khan have already realized their mistakes and are repenting, and I hope that the Great Khan will be lenient and forgive their mistakes, so that they will confess their mistakes to your face. ”

When Genghis Khan heard this, he was about to speak, when he saw that the beggar was suddenly coming, he asked casually: "Is there anything you want to break when you come here, the great judge?"

The beggar smiled and said, "Yes, there is something I want to ask the Great Khan for advice." ”

"Tell me, if there's anything you want to ask, tell me quickly. ”

"Report to the Great Khan, have you heard of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge?"

After hearing this, Genghis Khan knew that this righteous brother must have some advice to say, so he said: "You just talk straight, don't beat around the bush, okay?"

The beggar immediately said: "Okay, I'll tell you the truth, now that the old capital of the Khorezm Kingdom, Yulong Jiechi, has just been captured, and the three little princes who have made meritorious contributions should have rewarded them and rewarded them, but the Great Khan did not allow them to enter the meeting, which is not fair." ”

When Genghis Khan heard this, he thought to himself: "These three little things are really scheming, and they actually brought my two confidants here to be lobbyists for them." ”

Thinking of this, Genghis Khan looked at the two of them and said honestly: "You only complain about the three brothers, but you don't know that they are bold and have committed the crime of deceiving the king?

At this time, the chief magistrate immediately said, "Ah, so it is, I don't know this, since the three of their brothers have committed such a great crime, please let the Great Khan punish them according to the law." ”

When Borshu heard this, he was very unhappy in his heart: "How can you be a judge of the matter, how can you do it according to the law when a young man makes a mistake for the first time? Not to mention that they have made such great merits, according to the rules of the Great Khan, they should also enjoy impunity, have you forgotten?"

At this moment, Yelu Chucai walked into the big tent with Jochi, Chagatai and Wokotai, and said: "The ancients said that people are not sages, who can be without faults? The three little princes made mistakes, but they also made great contributions, and asked the Great Khan to allow them to repay their mistakes and pardon them. ”

Listening to the persuasion of the three of them, Genghis Khan's anger had subsided, he looked at the three sons in front of him, and couldn't help asking: "Do you remember that Ah Ra Tan and Ku Cha'er were dealt with because of what mistakes they made?"

After waiting for a while, both Chagatai and Ogedei said that they were young and did not remember, only Jochi said: "The two of them did not follow the regulations of their father Khan, and privately divided the prisoners and property. ”

Genghis Khan reprimanded his three sons: "As the chief general and commander of the army, you have taken the lead in violating military discipline and have a very bad influence in the army.

Jochi and the other three brothers were trained by Genghis Khan to keep their heads down, standing on the ground and not daring to move, Genghis Khan said: "The person who sees the wealth is the most unproductive, and the person who is tempted when he sees a woman has no ambition, and neither of these two people can do great things." ”

The three brothers were ashamed and remorseful, they were scolded by Genghis Khan, they were embarrassed, the sweat on their heads could not be wiped away, and they didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere. Looking at the embarrassment of the three Jochi brothers, and listening to the endless reprimands of the Great Khan, the archers Huang Child, Huang Ta He'er, and Kou Er Mahan also came forward to intercede for the three little princes.

They said to the Great Khan: "These three little princes are like eagle chicks, and they will inevitably make mistakes, and if they make mistakes, they will blame them again and again, and I am afraid that no one will want to go up again." Now our great Mongol empire is vast, from the place of sunrise to the place of sunset, all enemies have been annihilated, and there is a lot of gold and silver on the earth, and with the blessing of the immortal heaven, sooner or later it will be dedicated to the Great Khan. ”

After the three archers finished speaking, Genghis Khan's anger subsided, and he educated his three sons for a while, and the conflict between father and son finally passed.

In the fourteenth year of Genghis Khan, on the pretext that the Khwarazm Kingdom in the Western Regions had killed Mongol merchants and envoys, for the purpose of military expansion and plundering property, he personally led a large army of about 200,000 troops to march westward. In the past few years, he has conquered Sadara, Bukhara and Samarkand.

He sent Jebe and Subutai to lead an army to pursue the king of Khorezm, Mohammad, and forced him to flee to an island in the Sea of Kwanda Keith, where he fell ill and died. He then ordered Jebe and Subutai to continue westward as far as the Crimean Peninsula, and led an army to pursue Zalandin, the son of Mohammad, to the Shen River.

In the nineteenth year of Genghis Khan, the class returned to Mobei.
