028. The Son of Heaven

Timur clenched her spear and stood in front of her horse, her heart agitated.

She was running, still with a powerful and terrifying momentum.

Compared to before he didn't hurt his leg, he still lacked something.

She defeated the Byzantine lords of the peninsula, but these people were like mosquitoes in the steppe.

You can't kill it no matter how you kill it!

"Khan, I suppose we should talk to these Gentiles, right?"

One has been following her centurion since she started the army.

But Timur responded, "These people have no sincerity at all, the last time I accepted surrender, the result was less than ten days, they killed all the steppe nobles I sent."

There are many of them, and a hundred deaths are equivalent to the loss of one less of us.

There is no sincerity in the peace talks, they want us to convert to Orthodoxy, to abandon customs, to stop drinking mare's milk, to wear long dresses and long hair, to learn Greek and Latin to men, and every time the Patriarch or their Lord has a birthday, you have to go to the so-called church, and sing and pray to the statue, are you willing?"

"But if we continue to kill the captives, the hatred will only ......"

"Since they are not afraid, then I will kill them until they are afraid!"

Since Timur's stump returned to the Black Sea meadows.

Rumors are rife that she is no longer a dragon king with a golden body, she will also be injured and disabled, and she is still a woman in essence.

Messages like this keep appearing on the grassland.

The Lord of the Purple Chamber guarded her, fearing that she would enter the border and rob, and the Ottomans also guarded the border and wanted to consume her to death.

As for his ally Sun Khan, he refused to marry, and after Bazhen Buhua killed Sun Khan's son and left Tianzhu.

The alliance exists in name only.

Timur became more and more suspicious, and her butcher's knife was more ruthless than before.

She told the herdsmen, "I can take you to start with 18 horsemen, and now we have more than 1,000 horses, 200,000 herdsmen, and so many cattle and sheep that you can't see them at a glance, but you are afraid?"

I am the chosen one, and no one can judge me. ”

On another expedition, she defeated 1,000 Byzantines with 300 warriors.

But she lacked herbs, food, wine, iron, salt, cloth, hemp and other supplies.

Her 200,000 herders have begun to drift away.

The Black Sea is not the territory of the Tatars, and the herdsmen she has collected by virtue of her martial arts prestige are all over the world, and there are even more than a thousand Jutas.

These people are unreliable.

And closer to her homeland, the steppe people of Central Asia, to the east of the Black Sea, to the northeast of the Ottomans.

Timur was now left with three directions.

A full-scale westward expedition into Byzantium, maybe with a bit of luck, can also become a Roman emperor.

Recreate the Dark Ages hundreds of years ago, when an Eastern Khan named Attila swept across Europe.

One defeated Osman and gained a foothold in West Asia.

One marched eastward, into the Rus' region, and the Sun Khan's sphere of influence in Central Asia.

You have to choose one, or the herdsmen will leave her sooner or later.

At the moment of fate, Timur thought about it for a day and a night.

Watching the stars change in the sky, she couldn't make a decision.

Her father is dead, and now she's alone.

She waited alone until the morning, when the sun rose in the east, she looked at the fiery sun and had an idea.

She summoned her subordinates and said, "We can stay in the Black Sea without fleeing, guarding the inheritance we have called, but we are in danger of being destroyed at any time, and if we move the herdsmen eastward, we can ease relations with Byzantium and the Ottomans, and pull the main forces to the Central Asian steppes to compete with the Sun Khan."

The people of the prairie are from the same clan as us, and my bloodline and force are no worse than his. ”

"Great, Khan, you're going to be able to take us to a new level!"

The generals embraced the support of the female khan.

Then Timur plundered all the wealth in her hands on the Black Sea, and she negotiated with the Byzantines not to pursue them, but to hand over the land to them, to concentrate the scattered forces, and to move east with the herdsmen.

As for the Ottomans, she also showed goodwill, and would not interfere in their war with the Purple Room for the Black Sea.

Of course, this is a stopgap measure.

When she is strong enough to take full control of the Black Sea, she will come back.

Heading east, she subdued many smaller tribes.

It even invaded part of the Silk Road.

When he stopped in Uzbekistan, she captured the important large city of Samarkand.

The city is simply rich in oil.

They first paid protection money and begged Timur not to attack.

After Timur had collected the cattle and sheep, he rewarded his men for a few days, and then stormed the city.

After the beating, she ordered that the knife should not be sealed for a day.

The so-called unsealed knife means that his subordinates can rob everything they see.

Timur expanded the number of scattered herders to more than 150,000.

At this time, it belonged to a tolerant monarch who would have been willing to convert.

But after seeing Timur's cruelty, he launched the most vicious curse, saying that Timur would die in fear and suspicion for the rest of his life, and if he had blood, he would also kill each other in the future!

Curse her for not believing.

And she struck the monarch's head with a sword on the tower.

After Timur was wounded in the leg, he began to act decisively and cruelly.

She believed that people of different faiths would one day find that they were weak, and they would come against her.

This time, she forced the city to convert and split the administrative districts.

The believing aristocracy was broken up and a new administrative structure was established.

Timur had already come to the "region of the river" by this time.

The so-called river is the boundary between two rivers in Uzbekistan.

Further east is called Hedong, which is already very close to the Sun Khan camp.

To the west, it is called Hexi, and there are many tribes, most of which submit to the Sun Khan.

The full name is Wuhe region.

Timur's eastward march of the country in this way seriously harmed the interests of Sun Khan.

Sun Khan's army of 40,000 soon came to visit Samarkand.

Timur overestimated his prowess, the prestige of Sun Khan in the Wuhe region for decades.

And her school of forcing faith as soon as she entered the city did not make the locals support her as a woman.

As soon as the battle was fought, Timur's vanguard began to break up and was forced back into the city.

Sun Khan also had siege weapons, a god cannon introduced from countries further east, which could shoot huge flying stones.

If it weren't for this city, Sun Khan still wanted to occupy it, and within a month, he would be able to destroy part of the thousand-year-old city.

Timur was forced to retreat from the middle of the river to the steppe area west of the river.

The steppe fought fiercely, the cavalry rushed to kill, and no one could defeat her.

Sun Khan, who laid down the fortress, once surrounded Timur, but she was hard and hard again, and she broke away and gained a firm foothold in the Hexi region.

Timur also hooked up with a nobleman in the Hedong region called the Yeliya Fire Thinker.

This is also the father of the Liya Fire Thinker, who failed to compete with the Sun Khan for the rule of the Transocona region in his early years, and moved to the east of the river.

After Timur entered the river, he brought three thousand men to finance Timur.

Although he did not hold the fortress, he continued to retreat west with the Dragon King, and the two became the most powerful tribe in the Hexi region.

The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake.

Timur and the Yaliya fire-minded people jointly built the khanate, and her prestige was insufficient in Central Asia, so she retreated and took a position similar to that of the palace minister, and the Yeliya fire-minded became the khan.

The Chatai Khanate was established.

The Chatai Khanate was the strongest khanate in the Wuhe region a hundred years ago, and it was also founded by the Golden Family.

In doing this, the Fire One wants to cling to his ancestral lineage and increase his prestige.

People call the fire man Chatai Khan, and the fire man takes the Liao Emperor in his hand as a mascot.

When issuing orders, only his own and Timur's seals were used.

Seeing this opponent, Sun Khan declared the steppe, expelled Timur from the Golden Family, and mobilized his forces to destroy this great enemy.

Timur did not take the order seriously, but he was also extremely angry.

The steppe people valued the bloodline too much, and she also used the order of Emperor Liao to abolish all the status of Sun Khan.

The Hexi area has the Silk Road and tea traffic.

The Chatai Khanate enjoyed huge profits,

Supplies from Europe and West Asia will also enter here and go to the East.

These tariffs were enough for her to maintain power in Hexi, a mostly uncivilized land.

Oriental luxury goods and handicrafts are really outstanding.

Timur came into contact with a lot of dexterous objects.

She caught an Oriental whose ancestors had been court weavers.

This man said that the greatest monarch of the East wore a garment painted with dragon patterns, sewn with gold thread.

A ready-to-wear garment can only be made from food rations for tens of thousands of people.

There are 100 dishes in a meal, and for each dish, the monarch only moves three chopsticks and never tastes them again.

The existence of such staggering luxuries and lifestyles made Timur wonder what kind of intelligent people lived in the land where these things were made. to be so profligate generosity.

Sometimes the amount of goods that entered the Silk Road was reduced.

Slowly, she inquired about the land of the East, which was now in a scuffle.

will make the shortage of goods.

The names of the forces established by the Eastern aristocracy were very short, often with only one character.

At present, several great nobles are vying for the title of "Son of Heaven".
