Worried that the grain transportation would not be sufficient, Timur ordered hundreds of carts of grain to be carried to the fertile field, and immediately ordered the old and weak soldiers to sow seeds, imitating the method of China's tuntian fields to provide food for the army. He also drove hundreds of female camels with the army, and if there was a shortage of food, they fed on camel milk to temporarily cope with hunger.

When Timur's army reached the Syr Darya, it was snowing heavily, the roads were muddy and difficult to navigate, and Simado froze to death. Timur had no choice but to order the army to stay here until the weather cleared. Who knew that for more than 50 days, there was snow all over the sky every day, and it seemed that God was deliberately trying to prevent him from going east.

At this moment, the celestial phenomena warned, and the sky ** appeared in the sky during the day, and the wizard of the army divined the unfavorable soldier and persuaded him to retreat.

Timur hesitated, and then wandered outside the tent, and suddenly saw a small worm, burrowing out of a thick layer of snow, climbing up along a grass that was left on the ground, and then falling repeatedly, but the little worm was not discouraged, and climbed again and again, and finally climbed to the end of the stem, and munched on the most tender green leaf. When Timur saw it, he couldn't help but sigh: "The advent of people should be like this!" ”

So he convened a meeting of the generals of the whole army and said: "The king and grandson Haril have already marched to the Ili River Valley, and we are still patrolling here, so that he can go deep alone, is it the way of the king and the way of the ancestors?" ”

The generals said: "Great Khan, if it snows heavily today, it is difficult to march, and the heavenly phenomena are not favorable to the army master, it is better to order Wang Sun to lead the troops back and wait for the coming day." ”

Timur said angrily: "I have led an army of 800,000 to this point, how can I return empty-handed, and those who dare to retreat will be beheaded." ”

Timur's army then crossed the frozen Syr Darya River and arrived at the city of Sadhara (the confluence of the Areth and Syr Darya rivers in present-day Shymkent, Kazakhstan), where it repaired for several days.

Zhu Yunwen and others also acted together with the sweat tent, accompanied by Chen Cheng, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty. After careful observation over the past few days, Chen Cheng confirmed that the two monks named Empty Seal and Empty Energy were Huang Zhan and Wang Shu, who were in the same department as him back then.

Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Cheng got into the tent of Zhu Yunwen and others, and said to Huang Zhan and Wang Shu: "Zhuangyuanlang and Tanhualang have been separated for more than ten years, and the demeanor of the two is still the same." ”

Huang Zhan and Wang Shu hurriedly got up and saluted: "Amitabha, the poor monk has seen the benefactor with empty seals and empty energy. The donor recognized the wrong person, and the two of us are not champions and tanhua. ”

Zhang Shixing glanced at Zhu Yunwen and asked him to show him.

Zhu Yunwen made a gesture of invitation and said to Chen Cheng: "Please sit down and talk." ”

Chen Cheng sat cross-legged in front of the brazier with everyone, roasted the fire, and said calmly: "Everyone, please rest assured, Fang Xiaoru is my mentor, and I will never reveal your identity." ”

As soon as Zhu Yunwen heard Fang Xiaoru's name, the past came to his heart, his eyes couldn't help but moisten, and he sighed and said: "Mr. Fang is worthy of being a role model for scholars in the world, although he punishes the ten clans, he is not a thief. ”

Chen Cheng said with emotion: "I was also among those who were sentenced, but fortunately I was exiled to Tuntian, Liangxiang, Shuntian Prefecture, because of the guarantee of Master Xie. Later, the imperial court sent an envoy to the Timurid Khanate to ask him not to come to pay tribute, but no one dared to come, because I had been an envoy to the Western Regions in the 29th year of Hongwu, and I wrote a letter to recommend myself, so I came here. I didn't expect to meet you here, it's really a blessing to live three lives. I wonder what the names of these two masters are? ”

Huang Zhan introduced him: "This is my mentor, Master Kongwen. This is my junior disciple, Kong Zhi, who is a lay disciple and has not yet been ordained. ”

Chen Cheng looked at Zhu Yunwen's slightly deviated head, and his heart suddenly brightened, and he immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "In the pedestrian Chen Cheng knocked to see Master Kongwen." ”

Zhu Yunwen helped him up and said, "Chen Xingren, for so many years, you have suffered, so you don't need to be polite." ”

Chen Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Compared to many colleagues, I am lucky, at least I am still alive." ”

Saying that, he briefly talked about Zhu Di's killing of Jianwen's loyal ministers, and the implementation of melon and vine copying.

After everyone heard this, they all sighed.

Zhang Shixing suddenly asked: "Chen Xingren, I heard you say that you were exiled to Tuntian, Shuntian Mansion, where is this Shuntian Mansion, why haven't I heard of it before." ”

Chen Cheng said with a smile: "Since the new emperor ascended the throne, he was promoted to Beiping Mansion and renamed Shuntian Mansion. ”

Zhu Yunwen was suddenly shocked: "Is he going to move the capital?" ”

Chen Cheng nodded and said: "I'm afraid so, now the emperor has summoned the world's skilled craftsmen to gather in Shuntian Mansion, and is building the city wall, and when the materials are ready, the palace will also break ground soon." ”

Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said, "He is going to abandon the ancestral mausoleum, and he will be punished by God." ”

Huang Zhan asked a little strangely: "The construction of a large number of buildings will cost the people and money." Why is that? ”

Chen Cheng sighed and said: "Now that he is on the throne, he has killed too many people, and the imperial city often hears ghosts crying at night, which makes him restless, so he wants to move the capital." ”

Zhu Yunwen nodded and said: "It seems that his people are not attached, and there is still something to be done in the world." ”

Chen Cheng said: "This Timur went east to conquer the Ming Dynasty, and the living beings in the world were destroyed again. "Ninety-nine Chinese

Huang Zhan said: "Chen Xingren, what do you think is the chance of winning Timur's Eastern Expedition?" ”

Chen Cheng said: "Five or five." ”

They asked him why.

Chen Cheng said: "Before I sent an envoy to Timur, I had ordered Song Sheng, the Marquis of Xining, who was in Gansu, to train soldiers and horses, send scouts, hoard grain and grass, and strictly garrison, and Song Sheng had prepared an army of 150,000 in Gansu to prevent Timur from invading. Therefore, the Ming Dynasty treated Timur with ease. ”

They asked Timur what his chances were.

Chen Cheng said: "This is the poison of Meng Yuan. Since the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the northwest has been full of Huihui, and if Timur wants to establish an Islamic state in China, these Huihui will respond en masse. Therefore, I say that his crusade is divided into five or five. But if he contacts Tatar and Warat and attacks our country, he has a seventy percent chance of victory. If he can find another person, there is a ninety percent chance of victory. ”

Everyone wondered, "Who?" ”

Chen Cheng glanced at Zhu Yunwen and said, "It's the Jianwen Emperor who is rumored to have died." ”

When everyone heard this, their faces were shocked.

Zhu Yunwen asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

Chen Cheng said: "If Timur finds Emperor Jianwen, makes him king, and calls on the world, he will definitely be defeated today." It's just that this Timur believes in Islam, and he has different customs and beliefs from the Han people like us, and if he destroys China, it will be like the death of the Song Dynasty in the Mengyuan Dynasty, not only the destruction of the country, but also the destruction of the world. I don't know if this Jianwen Emperor is here for this? ”

Zhu Yunwen lowered his head and pondered for a moment and said: "The family and the country are small, but the world is big. Emperor Jianwen will not do this. ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded yes.

At this time, suddenly Timur's own soldiers entered the account, saying that the Great Khan had invited him, and ordered him to go to the Golden Horde.

Zhang Shixing then followed his soldiers to Timur's Golden Horde, only to see him sitting cross-legged beside the brazier, drinking glass after cup.

Seeing Zhang Shixing coming in, Timur beckoned him to sit down and said, "Battle, it's cold, drink a glass of wine to warm up." I'm too bored to drink alone, so I'm looking for you to drink with me. ”

Zhang Shixing arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Great Khan." You know I'm a Buddhist and can't drink alcohol. ”

Timur said angrily: "What's the good of being a Buddhist, you can't drink alcohol, you can't eat meat, you can't kill, you should convert to our Islam." ”

Zhang Shixing said: "Great Khan, don't force me. ”

Timur said, "Well, you must drink with me today, and I will not force you to convert." ”

Zhang Shixing had no choice but to agree.

Timur pointed to the bottles of wine on the table and said, "My Battle, this is the best wine in the world and Arak, which one do you drink?" ”

Zhang Shixing looked at the bright red wine in the glass bottle, couldn't help but move his index fingers, and blurted out: "Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately." Drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, and came back to fight for a few days in ancient times. Great Khan, I'll drink this wine. ”

Timur handed him a glass and said, "He also said that if you don't drink, you know that wine should be drunk with a luminous glass." ”

Zhang Shixing said with a smile: "I don't know what to drink, it's just picking up the wisdom of my predecessors." I don't read much, but I can write a few songs, which are just right for today's scene. ”

Timur poured a glass of milk-like Arak wine into his glass, and Zhang Shixing poured a glass of wine, and the two raised their glasses and drank them all.

Timur lamented: "I also don't read much, and I have been naughty since I was a child. You see, this leg of mine was broken when I was a kid stealing a neighbor's sheep. As he spoke, he pointed to his right leg.

He continued: "After a little while, I served under Ghzahan, who was the chief of guard of the Western Chagatai Khan Ghazan Suduan, and then attacked and killed his master, and controlled the power of the river for more than ten years. Hezhan treated me well and appointed me as the head of a thousand households. ”

After saying that, Timur drank another glass of wine, and then continued: "Later, the Eastern Chagatai Khan Vulhu Lu sent troops from the Ili River Valley, invaded the middle of the river, and unified the Chagatai Khanate. My wife and brother Kusin and I raised an army against the army of Eastern Chagatai, and after several battles, we finally unified the middle of the river and established the capital of Samarkand. ”

At that time, the king of Turgi called Baye Zhide, who proclaimed himself the emperor of the Eastern Romans, won many battles, and his neighbors were afraid of him. Egypt, Turkey and the country. At the beginning, Timur sent an envoy to Egypt, and his king Puerki killed him, and Naixing asked him to take the tribes of the Egyptian territories and enter the city of Mursil on the banks of the Khziklis. When Baya heard this, he stationed his troops in the two places of Aleboyethesa and Zi'ar to prepare for it. Timur led his own army to Yerselm, and from there attacked Asia Minor. Pull out Kuimark first, and enter the city of Sebad. Timur was blocked by mountains and forests, not a place to use troops, and heard that the Turkish soldiers gathered in the city of Tukad, and choked the Xijieryirmak River to consolidate itself, but diverted to the Quisari River, leaving the baggage as the foundation of the back road, and cutting off the enemy's army from the capital of Arsa. Timur entered the siege of the city of Ankara, and when he heard that Baya Zhide had come to his aid, he withdrew his army and waited for him. At dawn, Timur formed in the field of Yangla, divided into two wings, the front of the formation was like 2 out of 30, and the rear of the Chinese army was 40 cavalry teams, which was a guerrilla division. Baye Zhide also divided his troops. In the battle, Timur first attacked the left flank of Turkey with his right flank and was defeated. On its left flank were the Selvites, who fought bravely, were defeated, and the whole army was defeated. And he attacked his right flank with his left flank, and on the right flank Berishra was slain and his troops were routed. Timur's generals pursued him, and the Seywi people were defeated and revived, but Timur repeatedly pursued the soldiers, but they were ravaged by the routs and could not be independent. Baye Zhide saw the defeat of the army, and the battle was strong. In the middle of the night, when he wanted to break through the siege, he stumbled and was fed by the general of Timur's department, Mamuz. Timur sent his grandson, Bermo Hamad, to pursue Soluman, the prince of Bayed, into the capital of Arsa, where Soluman was defeated and captured his harem concubines and the currency of the palace. At that time, Asia Minor was completely disintegrated, and the city of Dusmirnai could not hold on. Timur besieged for more than ten days, and began to conquer it. Send Baye Zhide to Samarkand, the middle of the way. Timur's master, Egypt has paid for his sins by offering horses and unicorns. The countries of the Western Regions either sent envoys or entered the court in Samarkand, and the roads were endless. The Samarkand palace is magnificent and crowns the Western Regions, and it is imitated from far and near.
