"The people of the Chagatai Khanate are gone?" An old man dressed in a heavenly sect sat on the bed and asked while eating the fruit brought by the maid.

"Yes, Vizier, they're all gone." The guard bowed and said. As he spoke, his eyes remained fixed on the ground, not glancing at the man and maid known as the vizier.

"Where have they gone in the past three days?" The old man said again.

"There are taverns and high-end restaurants all over the city, whether they are Celestial or Christian, and there are two great faiths; and the homes of various low-level officials in the city. They paid about one pood (about 16.4 kilograms of gold today) to buy off low-level officials and well-informed people in taverns. ...... "The guards told the man known as the vizier all the news that the messengers who had been following the Chagatai Khanate these days and what they had heard from the tavern.

"Go down." The old man said. The guards immediately bowed and saluted.

Just as the guard retreated, the old man coughed softly, and the wall beside him suddenly moved, and the moving iron door rubbed against the surrounding masonry and made a 'hoho' sound. After a while, the iron door was completely opened, and a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties walked out. If the guard was still here, he could tell at a glance that it was Shadibe Khan, the Khan of the Golden Horde.

When he walked out of the iron gate, he patted the dust off his body, sat down opposite the old man, and complained to him, "It is really inconvenient to go through the secret passage every time I come to you. ”

"Who made the two of us ostensibly hostile." He said with a smile. This old man is the rumored to have a very tense relationship with Shadibe.

In the minds of most people in the Golden Horde, Shadibe and Yedigai had a very bad relationship, including most of their subordinates; But in fact, after the first two years of running-in, the relationship between the two of them is not bad.

The reason for this is, of course, related to the tribal system of the Golden Horde. The tribe directly under the control of the Por Zhijin family had experienced two blows from Timur during the time of the Great Khan of Tokhtamysh, and their strength had decreased a lot; At the same time, the Nogai tribes in the south rose up, and with the support of Timur, they tried to seize the rule of the Golden Horde.

However, the leader of the Nogai tribe also knew very well that under the current system of the Golden Horde, even if the nominal supremacy was controlled, it would not make much sense, but it might make the differences within the Golden Horde superficial, or even completely disperse, which was not necessarily a good thing for the Nogai tribe.

At the same time, the countries of the West are also rising, and they are embracing Christianity. Although Poland and Lithuania practiced Christianity in the west, and the Uras in the east, they were all the same for him, a Kafir who should all die.

So although there are also fights between Diegai and Shadi, they often cooperate, and it's not like you're living or dying. It's just that many of the two of their subordinates can't understand these things, so the two of them have to discuss things secretly in private.

"In fact, what the envoy of the Chagatai Khanate said is reasonable, prepare the army in advance, if Timur is really defeated by the Ming State in the east, it will just seize the territory of the Timurid Khanate. Why didn't you let me promise him? Shadi Behan asked as he ate an apple.

"Why don't we say no?" He said: "As long as Timur wants to go east to fight the Ming Kingdom, he will definitely go, and the Ming Kingdom will definitely fight back, since we will not send troops before Timur is defeated, and it will not affect the outcome of the war, why don't we refuse?" ”

And if you agree, it's a bad thing. In case Timur knows, in order to avoid worries, he will sweep the side before going east to fight the Ming Kingdom, and we will be here, the warriors of the tribe can run, what about the city of Sarai, which is just a little popular? ”

After listening to Yedigai's explanation this time, Shadi suddenly realized: it turned out that Yedigai did not have the intention of taking advantage of Timur's defeat to get a vote, but was just cautious.

On the contrary, Shadibe himself suddenly thought of something and said: "Actually, even if Timur is really defeated in the future, we will not have much spare strength to seize the place of the Timurid Khanate." Lithuania to the west has grown stronger and stronger since King Władysław II married King Jadwigga of Poland to form a joint Lithuanian-Polish state, and has been constantly attacking the Black Sea in an attempt to gain an outlet to the Black Sea. ”

"The Genoese and Venetians, who had established many colonies on the Black Sea coast, did not care whether they were trading with the infidels or not, but the Lithuanians and Poles were able to provide them with more goods, including many Germanic slaves, so they were happy to see the Lithuanian attack succeed."

"It is not easy for our current people to hold Ukraine, and the transfer of troops to fight in the east may lead to the seizure of White Rus or Western Ukraine by the Lithuanians."

"No, the problem can be solved," said Die, taking an orange from the handmaiden's hand, peeling it and eating a petal, "the Lithuanians are not without other enemies, the Teutonic Knights are in Livornia and Prussia, and Hungary to the south is not on good terms with the Poles, and they can try to encourage them to go to war with the Lithuanians." Of course, maybe we don't need to encourage them to fight. ”

"What we have to do is to prepare secretly after knowing that Timur is conquering the Ming Kingdom; As soon as the news of Timur's defeat came, troops were sent over the Caucasus Mountains to attack Persia. Presumably, at this time, Koligak will send troops to attack Hezhong, and the Chagatai Khanate will send troops to attack the land of the Seven Rivers, and the counterattacking Ming State may also participate, and the remnants of the Timurid Khanate will not take care of ours, and it will not cost much to seize northwestern Persia. ”

Shadi Behan nodded slightly. Too's plan was simple but practical, and he didn't have any suggestions to suggest right now, so he nodded his head in approval.

After talking about business, the two began to talk again. Shadibekhan said: "Speaking of which, if it weren't for the Chagatai Khanate sending envoys, I wouldn't have known that the Tuolei Khanate had been driven out of their country by the Khitans and established the Ming State. ”

"Is this normal, if it weren't for the fact that the Castilians had sent people to Salai to form an alliance against the Ottomans, we wouldn't know about the country of Castile." He said.

"Forget it, don't talk about that. Shadi Behan, since I saw you just now, you've been staring at me, the new maid, don't you have a crush? He laughed again.

"Now that you can see it, I'm not welcome, just now I took a fancy to her waist, this little waist must be very interesting on the bed." Shadibekhan said.

"Then I'll give it to you, and I'll take it with you when you go back later." He also said with a smile.
