The Ming army on the western road continued to advance, and there were only two hundred miles left from the city of Herat, which could be reached in the morning and evening.

Ab Saiza was sitting on an army of 200,000 troops, but he knew very well how powerful these newly recruited recruits were, and he was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, and he was at a loss.

Just three months ago, his 200,000 elites disappeared in one day.

Now these soldiers and horses are either young and strong selected from the people, or the original auxiliary miscellaneous soldiers, and they have become regular soldiers in a hurry with a saber and a military uniform.

Therefore, Abu Saiza had no confidence in his heart and urgently needed to sit in the northeast and southeast to defend himself.

More than a dozen edicts were issued, and finally, a definite reply came.

Beshi Bali Tuma quickly announced his independence from the Timurid Khanate and restored the title of Uighur Khanate.

Ma Suhu accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, transformed himself into the Uighur Khan, and declared that the Uighur Khanate respected the Ming Dynasty as the suzerainty and made friends forever.

Abu Saiza only felt that blood was dripping from his heart, and when the life and death of the Timurid Khanate was at stake, Ma Suhu, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually rebelled!

However, there is no such thing as a blessing, and there is no single line of evil.

Only three days later, news came that the Eastern Chahatai Tumian Mabukhara announced its independence, restored the Eastern Chahatai Khanate, and also respected the Ming as the suzerain, and accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and became the Eastern Chahatai Khan.

At the critical juncture, all the troops that were left in their hands to fight defected.

Under the leadership of the Ming Dynasty, the Uighur Khanate, the Eastern Chahatai Khanate, the Delhi Sultan, as well as the Black Sheep and the White Sheep, jointly sent troops to defeat the Timurid Khanate.

It was only then that Abu Saiza realized the gravity of the matter.

The city of Herat was already in a state of panic, and in order to prevent anyone from escaping, the gates of the city had long been closed, and only the entry could not be reached.

But what is due will always come.

The Ming Army's Fifth Route Army barely encountered any resistance, and drove straight into the city of Herat.

From the top of the city, it covers the sky and the sun.

Abu Saiza suddenly realized that this was not the case when he attacked Tehran in the first place.

It's just that the roles of the two sides are reversed, and now they have become the disadvantaged side.

He kept cheering himself up, the Ming army can fight back, and so can I!

Attacking a city has never been a hundred times more difficult than defending a city, and now there is plenty of grain and grass in the city, so you don't have to worry about being attacked on the grain road, not to mention that there are 200,000 troops, and it is not yet known who will die in this battle.

There is no way out behind him, only to defend to the death, and to survive the Ming army!

In the camp of the Ming army, Zhu Jianshen finally got his wish and met his father.

"Father, I miss you!"

Zhu Qizhen was stunned and found that Zhu Jianshen had grown taller.

Recall, unconsciously, it has been more than a year since I left Beijing.

"How is everything going with Jingshi?"

"Back to my father, everything is fine!"

Zhu Jianshen not only grew taller, but also grew up, spoke politely, and finally had the appearance of a crown prince.

After the father and son got together, there was not much communication.

Sometimes, that's how relationships between men are.

When you reach a certain age, you will take on the corresponding responsibilities, even if you are a father and son, you don't need to get along day and night, and you don't need to be bitter.

The top priority is to take Herat and completely remove the last obstacle in the Western Regions.

This is Zhu Qizhen's mission, and it is also Zhu Jianshen's mission.

Tong Xuan couldn't wait for a long time, and took Zhu Jianshen's hand: "Your Highness, what do I want?" ”

Zhu Jianshen said: "It's all brought, in the barracks." ”

That night, the sky was clear and the stars were arching over the moon.

Ab Saiza lay on the bed, tossing and turning, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

At the beginning, Timurid the Great fought in the east and west, established a huge khanate, which continued to this day, after experiencing glory, but also experienced civil strife, to his own hands, it seems that to the Ding Shi, but suddenly a Ming appeared, a shot to kill people, who can stand this posture?

He couldn't figure out why he was so good and suddenly came to the city.

When the Ming army entered Tehran, it didn't even look at it squarely, but I didn't expect that it was the inconspicuous Ming army that suddenly opened its bloody mouth and wanted to eat itself alive.

I never dreamed of such a bizarre ......

Outside the window, the stars were dotted, and in a trance, it seemed to be moving.

Absaiza rubbed his eyes and opened them again.

It's not dazzling, it's really moving!

He rolled out of bed, went to the window, and looked up at the stars.

The stars in the sky were flying slowly, and, judging by the direction, in the direction of the city of Herat.

Suddenly, he was shocked.

Is there any moral to the vision from heaven?

Is it God's protection, or is it ......

Sou!

A ray of light swept across the night sky, and the stars fell.

It's a shooting star!

The starlight is faint, but in the dark night sky, it looks very dazzling.

Ab Saiza pondered that the presence of a meteor was not a good sign in his memory.

In the records of the ancients, the appearance of a meteor was a sign of calamity......

Sou!

Another meteor streaked across the night sky, the second!

Immediately after that, there was the third, the fourth, and the fifth......

Starfall rains, leaving beautiful bright marks in the night sky.

Bang!

While Ab Saiza was still pondering the meaning of the celestial phenomena, the nightmare began.

Bang!

Bang!

All of a sudden, the entire city of Herat was engulfed in explosions and flames.

Abu Saiza was horrified, but he was at a loss.

If he was facing a siege by the Ming army, no matter how fierce the opponent's firepower was, he could immediately appear on the city wall and personally organize his troops for defense.

However, there were no enemies in sight, only stars from the sky.

Is God even against him?

Bang!

Bang!

This time it was not inferior black powder, but high-energy explosives transported from the Ming Dynasty, and its power was extraordinary.

After a violent explosion, the entire palace collapsed.

The centuries-old legacy of the Abu Saiza and Timurid empires are all buried under the rubble.

Most of the buildings in the city of Herat were made of wood, the gates were closed, and a large amount of grain and grass was hoarded, and it is conceivable that the explosion was followed by a skyrocketing fire, which burned for three days and three nights.

It wasn't until all the combustibles in the city were burned that the fire slowly subsided.

After the fire, the entire city of Herat was completely in ruins, and the once glorious Timurid Khanate ceased to exist.

Among the Ming troops present, except for the three major battalions that followed Zhu Qizhen all the year round, the rest of them felt such terrifying combat power for the first time.

Especially Ma Suhu and Bukhara, these two guys only feel a cool breeze on their backs.

It's not too wise to turn around before the battle!

If you follow Ab Saiza against the Ming army, this is your own fate.

Zhu Jianshen was also shocked.

He has studied with the Academy of Sciences for many years and knows the power of high-energy explosives, but it is the first time that he has witnessed such a real and terrifying strength in actual combat.

Only by personally feeling the cruelty of war can we appreciate the hard-won peace that peace is not easy to come by.

For the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, this lesson is enough to benefit for a lifetime.
