162 Winter of Great Eclipse

Dispatch of troops at the same time as Ahmad to report to the city, in fact, it gave the big cannibal room and opportunity to maneuver, but it is a pity that Isda was left by Abalu's side, and the powerful ruler Akami in the city of Baoda only thought about the left and right, and was willing to provide the details of the defense of the big food cities, and the conditions put forward were still the same as usual, so that the descendants of the Ali family of the Shiye faction would become the next Hailifan. Ignoring it, the Mughurs don't need a 'god' on their heads, even if it's an ornament, the Mongol army of Qinqin, Jochitai and Tigur has a clear goal, and at the same time goes straight to Baoda. He left a small number of soldiers and horses to contain or besiege the cities along the way, and no longer allowed the people of Ahmad to plunder and slaughter these cities, and the meaning of the takeover was very obvious. He crossed the river from the ancient city of Assyria on the northern route and attacked northwest of Pyrda on the southern route, and the Jochitai hurried march on the southern route to attack Hira southeast of Pyrda, and Ahmad joined up with Tigur to Kermansha and attacked the eastern part of Kheda.

The situation was so grim that Muttadi Mifi left behind the scriptures, summoned important ministers to study the defense plan, and organized 70,000 soldiers and civilians in the city. Other generals' proposals to patrol day and night and fortify the city were rejected by Akami, who insisted that the city was strong enough to withstand the siege engines of the Muguls, and that the Celestial Cultists and the Great Eclipse army in the land could delay long enough to resolve the crisis diplomatically before the Mughals approached the report. Muttadimifi, who was gullible Akami, met with the diligent envoys, expressed his verbal concession, and expressed his willingness to assist in the arrest of the Mughuls' 'father-killing enemy', and begged for a one-year grace to celebrate Ramadan happily, and then the two sides sat down to discuss the details.

This perfunctory attitude simply added fuel to the fire, and he sent more than 10,000 light cavalry to make a long-distance attack and encountered the defenders of Dashi at Salamae. The Great Food Army was headed by the general Feidu, but with a Akami retainer Egger as the lieutenant of the palm seal. Fei Du detected that the Mongol army was coming on a rapid march, and took advantage of the fact that it had not yet gained a firm foothold, and attacked it by surprise. Faidu did not want to pursue him again, so as not to fall into the trap, but Egger claimed that there was no reinforcement from the Mongol army at this time, and he did not have such a good opportunity to attack again, urging him to pursue immediately. Fei Du had no choice but to follow, and the two sides fought hard all night without deciding the winner, so they had to suspend their troops and stalemate.

How could he let them sleep peacefully, he boldly sent most of his men to dig up the levee to stop the water, and submerged the plain behind the Great Cannibal. Not all wreckage leads to victory, and sometimes it leads to a breakdown. In the early morning of the next day, the two armies fought again, and suddenly found that the Great Food Army, which had no way out, had lost its fighting spirit and was completely annihilated, and Fei Du was killed in battle, and only Iger escaped and returned to report the news.

When Muttadimiffi learned of the loss of Salama, he immediately ordered the walls and towers to be repaired, and barricades were set up along the streets to recruit the entire city to participate in the defense. Akami sent Iger again, on the one hand, to follow the instructions of Muttadimifi to negotiate peace with Mutadimifi, delay time, and not mention surrender, and on the other hand, privately offer a large amount of money, begging the Celestial Celestial Group of the Universe to greatly promote his second uncle to be the next Khairifan.

He scoffed, hacked Iger to death, and went directly to the city. He did not rush to attack the city, but first dug a trench three meters deep around the city to prevent the big cannibals in the city from escaping, and waited for the siege of Jochitai.

The summer of the ninth year of Shenzong has not yet passed, and Baoda has been besieged by three armies. On June 30, he ordered the siege of the city, and the huge stone cannons and shells that had been developed and contributed by the craftsmen of the Great Food played a great role, and the garrison towers of the city were completely destroyed, and the three armies pressed the siege together, and the battle at the head of the wall was extremely fierce.

Jochitai also made a discordant plan, shooting into the city with a book bound by arrows, announcing that the Akami family had privately surrendered to the Mongol army, and would appoint the next Hailifan, on the condition of sacrificing the heads of the Mutadimifi family, to surrender the people and nobles in the city. Caught off guard, along with the powerful members of the Ali clan, Akami was caught by the angry Sunnai sect and hung from the city gate, where he was baptized by the Mughal artillery fire, and his body was shattered. Weak and incompetent, Muttadimifi lost his backbone and had to keep sending officials or his son out of the city several times to ask for surrender, hoping to delay time. In order to prevent the big cannibals from escaping, they built bridges and ships on the river, cruised day and night to contain the water, and intercepted and shot the residents who tried to swim out of the water. Ten days later, Muttadimifi led more than 3,000 people, including his sons, officials, and nobles, to kneel in front of the broken city gates.

After the Mongol army entered the city, it began a massacre that lasted nearly 20 days.

Knowing that they could not take advantage of the hands of the Qin, the Ahmad brothers went on a killing spree, and except for a few Han Chinese and Nestorian Christians who were pardoned, the adult men and the old and sick people in the city were slaughtered. The heads of these Celestial Christians were built into more than a hundred 'Jingguan Pagodas', and the young women were transported back to Rey, or sold into slavery in the Ecumenical state. The city's beautiful palaces, million-dollar libraries, world-famous universities, and magnificent Tianfang Temple buildings were all burned to the ground. Nearly a million people reported to the richest and most precious ancient capital, and about 800,000 people died.

For the Khan King, who had 'converted' to the Heavenly Sect, he should have opened his eyes to the transcendent Khairifan, but the Muguls did not think that they needed to put up a 'god' on their heads to show their rightful rule, and Muttadimifi's special status only allowed him to get the last bit of respect before he died—according to the teachings of shamanism, he was given the most merciful 'bloodless death', so that his soul could remain in the blood. Inherited for 37 generations and lasting for more than 500 years, the noble and extraordinary Hailifan clan was put into sacks made of exquisite blankets and trampled to death by the Mughal iron horsemen.

The fall of Baoda marked the fall of the once unified and powerful Great Food Empire, which had led to the collapse of the ancient Sumerian civilization, and the struggle to regain its former glory was difficult to regain in its former glory.

***********************

Recaptured the Holy City from the Crusaders and successfully defeated the Baibars of Namban, and two more of his commands, Yusu Yufu and Huyanjie, who also defeated the Mughu, gave the Mamulu people from humble backgrounds and usurped their positions to have great political influence in the world of the Celestial Sect. They were seen as the new guardians who could save the Celestial Sect from the Mughal Hoof, and the remnants of the Zangi Dynasty, the Ottoman Celestial Cult who were unwilling to pursue the Mughu, and the refugees who had fled from the territory of the Muqin Khanate, poured into Egypt.

Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and as long as the Muguls use a big victory in time to knock out the Mamu Cavalry, they can once again push the confidence of the Heavenly Sect to the bottom. Just as after the defeat at the Kabul Pass, Woo Qin immediately led the main force to catch up with Youhu and the two and erase this stain in the Battle of the Shen River, and now Bahei, who is heading south from the Anatolian Plateau, also hopes to use a victory to teach this 'remnant force' of the Tianfang Sect that dares to challenge the majesty of the Mongolian army and avenge his son.

However, the imaginary battle of Mamulu vs. Mughal did not ignite immediately, and Bahei stopped at Antioch, first cleared the restless factors in the territory, blocked the hand of the Tunqin into the two river valleys, completely controlled the Anatolian plateau, and even sent an army to take Fulang Island (Cyprus) with the assistance of the Ottomans.

In this way, Baibal has ample time to receive all the legacy of the Great Food Empire. Not only did he take Damascus with victory, proclaiming that the Zangi dynasty would henceforth be annexed to Egypt, but he also welcomed a surviving descendant of the family of Khairivan, Mustan, to a barren holy city. Celestial scholars from throughout the Mamulu dynasty were gathered in Cairo, where the Egyptian Celestial Law Society verified that Mustan's lineage was correct and identified him as the new Khairifan, preventing the Ali family from gaining access to the title of 'Khairifan'.

In the renovated Holy City, Baibars held a grand 'inauguration' for the old man who had narrowly escaped the Holocaust, and from the puppet he received the certificate of official canonization of the 'Egypt and the Levant' Sultan. From then on, Mustan and his descendant, Hailifan, had only the same functions as Emperor Toei: his name would be engraved on a gold coin and appear in the prayer of the Celebrity every Friday; Put on the cloak left by the prophet and keep the relics of the prophet, such as walking sticks, seals, teeth, and beards. presided over the succession ceremonies of the new Sutan in various places, and issued canonization documents; If there are daughters and granddaughters in the clan, they marry Sudan, and in addition to that, they study the teachings and scriptures without leaving their homes in the largest Tianfang Monastery in Cairo.

On the other hand, the khazars, who were sandwiched between the two khanates of Yesuhai and Chenqin, became a hardcore ally of Bahei because of the relationship between Isda and Bahei. For the monarch Haydn, the long-distance friendship and close attack, and the cooperation with Bahei gave him the opportunity to expand his territory to the south across the Gokasuo Mountains, completely monopolizing the trade route between Zhuozhanghai and Pontus, nitrogen, but his two sons had different choices. The eldest son, Reuben, was courted by the Holy See and was an Orthodox, preferring to cooperate with the historic Western See. The mother of the youngest son, Dagan, is a sorcerer, so she is naturally willing to follow the lead of the vultures. The reward given by Bahhei to the first strategist of his side, Isda, was to give Fulang Island to the Shuhu people to settle down, so that the Shuhu people, who had been seeking to restore the country for thousands of years, could see the light of day across the sea from the holy city of 'flowing honey and milk'. Haydn's death caused a split within the Khazars, and the Ecumenical Church and the Moses Church began to fight each other.

Speaking of the history of the two religions in the Khazar country, we have to start with the ancient kingdom of Anxiab, which perished at the hands of the great cannibals. When the Khazars rode horses to Zhuo Zhanghai to grab the territory, Fu Lao was stumbling with Anxi, and seeing that he couldn't bear it, he immediately asked his new neighbor for help with the gold. Khazar borrowed people, but Fu Lao would not make their cavalry, so they had to go into battle themselves and come out to encircle Wei to save Zhao. The Khazar cavalry took a handful of resting hinterland, relieved the siege of Fula, and also made the rest of the rest a great injury, and was taken advantage of by the big food and replaced it, which then evolved into the death of the big food and the khazar. Supported by the fanatical beliefs of the Celestial Cultists, the Great Cannibal, who regarded death as ascending to heaven, was defeated again and again, dragging the Khazar into a war of attrition and nearly defeating the Khazar completely. After relieving themselves and summing up the experience of failure, the Khazars decided to find a god to worship and invite the major sects to 'sit and talk'. Both Whirk and Da Shi sent senior scholars to participate in the debate competition, but unexpectedly, people came to join in the fun. After figuring out that all three families were derived from Moses, Khazar chose the one with the most 'roots'.

Because Whirk is a good friend and Da Shi is a sworn enemy, there are also many Nestorian followers among the Khazars. Haydn's choice to support the Eastern Church after the split between the Eastern and Western Churches upset Moses. In the history of the tribulations before the Shuhuren, out of commercial interests or dissatisfaction with the Holy See, the Moses in the Western countries have always been quite willing to serve as the leader of the Ottomans or the Great Cannibals who believe in the Heavenly Religion, and this erratic value of discipline is also an important reason for their extremely poor image in the European nations. Now that Haydn has gone to see God, Fu Lao naturally hopes that Hazar, a good friend who hugged the thighs of the Mughal people, will become a pawn to contain Ye Suhai, and Shuhu people hope to replicate the success of Izda on the Thorn of Khut, and then build an island or country of China as a base for the restoration of the country.

The religious tolerance of the Mughurs is manifested not only in the attitude of not being attached to a certain faith and accepting all religions, but also in the fact that they are easily influenced by the local religion. Although the Mugul, who are currently breaking into the Mayar pocket steppe, are caught between the devout Ecumenical state of Poreel and the Bolgar, a state controlled by the Holy See, it does not mean that the Khuts will take it for granted that they will choose between the Ecumenical Church and the Orthodox Church. Nestorian religion, which had been infiltrated by the Great Qin Empire and was full of cumbersome rituals and hierarchies, was more easily accepted by settled civilizations. In order to adapt to the nomadic migratory life on the Celestial Peninsula, and to more effectively unite these nomads who are free by nature and less susceptible to religious influence, the Celestial Religion has designed its teachings to be more controllable, such as many taboo regulations and concise religious rituals, which also makes the Celestial Religion more advantageous when spreading in the nomadic land. Therefore, the Khut Thorn, like the Qin, began to gradually lean towards the Heavenly Sect. When Haydn's death caused turmoil in the Khazar steppes, it was much more attractive than the pocket steppes, after all, there were too many difficult places to conquer in the mountains that surrounded them. Ye Suhai happily rushed to the Khazar steppe in the north of the Zhuozhang Sea to spread joy, while the Khutthorn took advantage of the situation to withdraw from the Magyar steppe, and used the Korpathian Mountains as the boundary to clear the forces of the Fulu Empire in the port of the Pontus Sea.

Religion, blood, agreements or marriages have always been just political fig leafs, and in the face of the Muguls who tore up the covenant, Dargan bribed Hillard with a lot of money, and was willing to open the door for the forces of Qin to cross the door to Zhuo Zhanghai, while Reuben, who married the daughter of Dukas, the king of the Whirat, unsuccessfully sought help, and could only face the invasion of Yesuhai in the process of tearing each other apart.

Douqin and Bahkhel needed to redefine their borders with each other, and with no time to go north, Ducasse and Komnenos preferred to abandon their former allies in exchange for a promise that the Mughals would not advance westward. Without any suspense, Ruben Mali went to see his father, and Dagan, who was the first to bow down to Suhai, was completely reduced to a vassal of the Mughal people, and the name of the Khazar Khanate was written off in the future history.

Just when Westerners were happy to see that the terrifying Mughuls had temporarily given up the idea of going west, either fighting for the Levant with the Celestial Cultists in Egypt, or fighting each other in a civil war, a disaster worse than **** was about to strike.
