In the face of interests, it is difficult for anyone to resist.

Plundering and making a fortune is undoubtedly the most eye-catching, and the idle cavalry of Mohedagan is an example of envy, and under their leadership, all the Turks in the north of the city of Qishi can't help it, they are originally a wolf-like nation, how can there be a reason to stand by and watch. In private, he was not far behind, looking for fat sheep everywhere, and leaving behind the task of guarding the begging city.

Que Yinan didn't know about this, but firstly, he had just been defeated and needed some means to boost morale, and secondly, that greedy and unbridled bone sip actually took the lead in destroying military discipline. In desperation, Que Yi Nanru pretended to be confused and acquiesced. As long as you guard against the enemy who may attack in the direction of Qishi City, everything will wait for the arrival of Sulu Khan's army.

The chaotic chaos of the Turgish, which made it convenient for Ummun, crossed the blockade of the Turgish, unharmed, with a large cart of gifts, and marched in the direction of Samarkand.

Sulu Khan's tolerance had reached the limit, and the military order had already been issued, and he was scheduled to leave for the south of Shi Guo yesterday, but those scattered tribes still had half of the soldiers scattered outside, and in the name of precaution, they plundered everywhere, and they didn't take their orders seriously at all.

Since the Sulu Khan sent his troops south, the siege of Samarkand has also stopped. The red-eyed soldiers of all departments crossed the sea and made a fortune everywhere. It's no wonder that they, the city of Qishi does not have their share, and the city of Samarkand has been unable to conquer for a long time, so they can only retreat to the second, rural towns, and remote mountain villages have become their targets.

For the Turgish, raiding was a common means of boosting morale.

As a result, the deadline has passed, but the various ministries have not taken it seriously, and they have not assembled for a long time. The war with the Great Cannibals is coming to an end, and most of the Turgish have no intention of fighting, and their hearts are focused on their possessions. Sulu Khan felt that if this continued, the morale of the army would be weakened, how could he fight with the enemy?

Sulu Khan was already considering which unlucky man's head to use to declare the military order, and just as his own soldiers came to report, they caught a spy who claimed to be an envoy of the Shi Kingdom, and also seized a large cart of gold and silver treasures. If it weren't for the fact that the other party said it was a gift to Sulu Khan, those hungry wolves would have wanted to devour those tempting treasures on the spot.

In the empty tent, there are still traces of Sulu Khan's anger, and the generals have long been ordered to seek troops and gather generals. A large box was carried in, and Umeng was held hostage by two guards and stood in the center.

Sulu Khan's mood improved with the golden dinar and silver dirham that were contributed to him. Without saying a word, he grabbed the gold and silver coins, then let go, letting the round metal, which represented wealth, slip from his palms. Listening to the crisp sound of them crashing, he felt content.

"Dear Loyal Khan, this is our king's gift to you. It was a list of offerings, and a list of annual tributes for each year to come. ”

Umeng stared at the two pieces of jute paper on the side of the box.

Sulu Khan nonchalantly took the list passed by the guards, looked at it casually, and then his eyes froze, and he let out an imperceptible inhalation.

In addition to 2,000 dinars and 10,000 dirhams, there was also a chest of emeralds and a chest of precious stones.

The things on the New Year's tribute made his heart flutter. 300,000 dirhams, 500 cattle, 100 horses. You know, a wealthy Bukhara only earns 200,000 dirhams a year.

"Come on, pull him down for me and cut him down and feed the wolves!"

Sulu Khan's face changed suddenly, he shook off the two pieces of jute paper in his hand, pointed at Umeng and shouted.

"Haha, everyone says that Sulu Khan is a hero, but looking at it today, it's not bullshit."

Umeng was dragged by two guards, and he didn't resist, just laughed and cursed.

The conceited Sulu Khan could not withstand such agitation, and immediately stopped the guards and shouted: "Then I will let you die a clear death!" Hum! You want to slander me with a piece of paper and a mouth? Where do you have so much wealth in your country? When I don't know your idea of a delay? Hmph, stupid thing, damn it! You Shi people deserve to die! ”

Umon laughed, as if Sulu Khan had been telling him a joke.

Sulu Khan looked at Umeng suspiciously, wondering why he was laughing.

"What are you laughing at, you're dying, and you're so arrogant!"

Wumeng stopped laughing, pointed at Sulu Khan and said, "Shi Jun respects you as a loyal Khan and a hero of the world, and I also deeply think so. But listening to what I just said, the Great Khan is just so unheard. Perhaps, it's not your fault, it's all because your subordinates deceived you. ”

"Don't you dare to cut off your dog's head? Actually sow discord? ”

In a fit of rage, Sulu Khan drew his scimitar and pointed at Umon.

"Doesn't the Great Khan know what our kingdom produces?"

Umeng asked casually, and even got into a routine with Sulu Khan.

Sulu Khan stared at Umeng, slightly restrained his anger, and asked coldly, "No matter what you produce, you will not be able to escape the fate of your own life today." ”

"Shi Guo's specialties are gold and silver. The annual production of gold and silver was enough to sustain the military expenses of the Khorasan army. ”

Umeng ignored Sulu Khan's threat and said to himself.

"What? Is this true? ”

"That's true. The Khan's subordinates knew, and if the Khan didn't believe him, he could just ask. Every time they can't get along with our country, why do they come, isn't it because of these wealth? Therefore, Shi Jun could not bear to be disturbed and wanted to sacrifice it to the Great Khan to avoid his troubles. ”

Umeng replied earnestly.

Sulu Khan was silent, no wonder Mohe Dagan was so anxious to find trouble with the people of Shi Guo every time, well, I heard that he plundered in Shi Guo and gained a lot, so it is.

"Why didn't you offer it before? I will not say this until I have punished the army, how can I believe in your sincerity? ”

Sulu Khan said coldly.

Wumeng sighed and said, "Great Khan. Since the arrival of the Great Cannibal, the mining rights of these gold and silver mines have been controlled by the Great Cannibal, and Shi Jun cannot touch it. The arrival of the Great Khan's rebel army caused the Great Cannibals to flee and the mines to be abandoned. Originally, Shi Jun planned to take it back, but Deputy Khan Dadu Mo took the opportunity to occupy the mine by virtue of his geographical advantages. So Shi Jun drove him away, but unexpectedly, he took refuge in Mohe Dagan. The next thing the Great Khan should know is also known. ”

Sulu Khan's doubts became heavier, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong with Mohe Dagan, and he also heard a little about Mohe Dagan's taking in Dadu Mo.

Seeing this, Wumeng continued to add fuel and vinegar and said: "Our Shi country is weak and in the land of four wars, how dare Shi Jun monopolize the blessings of heaven. In the face of those gold and silver mines, he trembled all day long, for fear of getting into trouble. How dare you privately approve the mine with outsiders, this mine is not a sage can be relied on. The Khan twice sent troops to attack the crime, and Shi Jun was terrified and did not know what the crime was. A few days ago, from the mouth of the wounded soldiers of your army, I knew that it was indeed a crime. Shi Jun thought that if the khan needed these mines for military funds, he could ask Shi Jun for them, so why bother to mobilize the people and destroy the lives of the people. In order to stay away from the disaster, Shi Jun sent me here and was willing to give the mine to ask for sin. I hope that the Khan will not be deceived by the villain. ”

Under the temptation of huge profits, Sulu Khan's ability to think rapidly declined. However, he also knew that before making a decision, he had to examine the truth of what Umeng was saying.

"I will surely examine what you say. However, you actually colluded with the Great Cannibal to use hellfire to kill our soldiers, and you deserve to die! ”

Umeng knew that he had passed this level. This seed of discord sown between Sulu Khan and Mohedagan will naturally take root and sprout as soon as the conditions are ripe.

Regarding the "slander" of colluding with the big cannibals, Wumeng disdained it and said: "Big food, historically, my country has been deeply persecuted by it, and its hatred is as deep as the sea, how can you say that it is colluding?" As for the hellfire, it was just left in the mine when the Great Cannibal retreated in a hurry, and was transported back by my Shi Jun. On that day, in a hurry, it was used to seal the city gates. As far as I know, there are only a handful of soldiers in your army who have been hit by the fire. If it is not the truth, I am willing to apologize with my head. ”

"Well, listen to you, I accept your sincerity. And send me the princess of the caliphate, and it will be as you wish. ”

As winter approached, Sulu Khan's desire to withdraw his troops grew stronger, and it would be best if he could achieve his goal without a fight.

"No, no, that's absolutely not going to work!"

Seeing that he was about to succeed, but he fell short, Umon was very sad and indignant, sad and angry at the shamelessness of the Tuqi Shiren, very disappointed, and lost in the unfinished task. He knew that Sulu Khan's last condition, no matter what, Li Huaitang would not be able to agree.

"Humph! If you can't do anything, when my army comes to the city, you have to do it. ”

If you can't take the city of Samarkand, it's not bad to take the princess captive to the caliphate.

Sulu Khan's tone was unconsciously tough: "Come on, take him down, keep him under strict guard, and there will be no mistakes." ”

After thinking for a long time, Sulu Khan decided not to wait any longer, and first led his 30,000 horses and horses to the south. As for the rest of the tribes, wait for them to return and then let them follow.
