Timur practically had no other choice.

Intellectually, of course, he knows very well the consequences of this, just Zhu Di can give it a go......

It can only be a fight.

He knew very well that this person was as terrible as Yang Feng, and even purely in terms of military and political talent, Zhu Di was actually more terrible than Yang Feng, Yang Feng only relied on brutal force to deter those chaotic forces from following him, but Zhu Di was truly encouraged and powerful to gain their allegiance. The ability to subjugate these chieftains like loyal dogs is already amazing, but Zhu Di does not have Yang Feng's invincible force value, in the final analysis, force is the first in this era, a truly invincible fierce general can make up for a lot of shortcomings.

A force can be loyal to Zhu Di because of his grace, but when they encounter a powerful enemy like Yang Feng who makes them desperate, they can still betray Zhu Di.

After all, being ungrateful has the most uneasy conscience, but Yang Feng's berserk giant sword will make their heads fall to the ground.

So from this point of view, Zhu Di is still inferior to Yang Feng.

But he's just not as good as Yang Feng!

Those bastards in Warat even killed the Mongol Khan if they wanted to, but they were as loyal to Zhu Di as a dog, this is definitely a real strong man.

Timur knew very well that even if he was compared with Zhu Di, he could only say that he was on par.

So simply against Zhu Di, he can only say that he has a fight, the power he can mobilize in the Western Regions is not much stronger than Zhu Di, he has the support of the gods, Zhu Di also has the support of the Buddha, he has the Turkic Mongols and the Turkic and Persian group, Zhu Di also has the genuine Mongolian and Warat group, and his Persian group still has a ghost, and Zhu Di also has the Ming army group. The troops he can mobilize in the Western Regions that can be used with confidence are actually only hundreds of thousands, and even if Zhu Di ignores the grass on the wall in southern Xinjiang, the Ming army he can mobilize, Warat, and the Mongols actually have more than 100,000.

And that's not counting Song Sheng.

The latter can also reinforce Zhu Di with 50,000 Gansu troops.

And once Song Sheng enters the Western Regions, the grass on the wall in southern Xinjiang will not hesitate to incarnate into Ming loyal dogs.

Timur could not win against Zhu Di with certainty.

It's true.

He knew that even against Zhu Di, he did not have an absolute advantage.

If you face Yang Feng again, then the chances of winning are even slimmer, at least for now.

As for being the new Genghis Khan, just talk about it, he is not even a golden family, who is the real Mongolian and Warat?

In the past, no one had much of a bird on him.

But......

If he doesn't, then it's time to face a mutiny from his men.

His sons and grandchildren, his generals, the emirs who supported him, they would not accept a leader who would not dare to do anything under such circumstances.

Everyone supports a powerful sultan, not a coward who still doesn't dare to do anything after being humiliated again and again, even in the face of the opportunity for revenge.

Do you deserve to be our boss?

For their system, it is not a big deal to hack a boss to death, and even his children and grandchildren personally lead the generals to hack him to death is not a big deal, in their system of only fearing the strong, an incompetent old leader, just like the wolf king in the wolf pack, it is very reasonable for those young children and grandchildren to bite him to death and replace him, and he has bent his knees to Daming again and again, and has been considered old and incompetent.

He had to show his men that he was still the powerful leader.

He is not old and incompetent.

"King Pingxi, the lower officials will go back to reply to the decree, King Pingxi, please rest assured, the first batch of cannons and magic guns will be sent to Basra at the end of the year."

Chen Cheng said with a smile.

Timur eventually accepted Jianwen's canonization.

As for the knighthood given to him by Jianwen......

King Pingxi.

Although he is still the king of the county, he gives the crown of the vassal king, and the governor of the Seven Capital Divisions of the Western Regions, and the guardianship of the Western Regions vassals, which are all under his jurisdiction from the west of Jiayuguan.

Of course, the premise is that he kills Zhu Di.

After all, Zhu Di is in charge of this work now.

Moreover, this canonization can be kept out of the public for the time being, until Timur officially proclaims righteousness.

That is, he officially sent troops to capture Guihua City and killed Yang Feng's concubine, so as to officially break with Yang Feng, and then the identity of King Pingxi of the Ming Dynasty will be made public.

Chen Cheng is also an old fox, it is impossible for Timur to empty the gloves of the white wolf, if he wants Jianwen to really give him the support he wants, then he must publicly break with Yang Feng and kill Yang Feng's woman, this is his vote to Jianwen, as long as he kills Yang Feng's concubine, the craftsman will send him to Baghdad.

As for this King of Pingxi......

The west of Jiayuguan belongs to him, that is, of course, the king of Pingxi, and all the places outside the west in the future will belong to him.

King Pingxi!

At this point, the alliance between Timur and Jianwen was established.

"Chen Shilang will go all the way, and when I have quelled the rebellion of the Golden Horde, I will crusade against Yang Feng for Your Majesty."

Timur said.

"Your Majesty."

Chen Cheng said.

To quell the rebellion of the Golden Horde, of course, was to kill Zhu Di.

Speaking of which, Chen Cheng didn't expect such an unexpected joy, although Jianwen secretly contacted Zhu Di, but in fact he hated the fourth uncle very much, in his opinion, his failure was completely Zhu Di betraying him, and he would definitely not think it was his responsibility. And in fact, he has already regained his taste at this time, he was really played by Zhu Di as a monkey, Zhu Di deliberately supported him, and even asked his subordinates to help him raise troops, and then betrayed him at a critical time, so that he would eventually become a sinner who killed the king and rebelled.

It can be said that he has always been played with by his fourth uncle.

Now Zhu Di was besieged by the Golden Horde because of his rash advance, and Timur sent troops to help the Golden Horde kill Zhu Di, and there was no one in the Western Regions who could fight against Timur.

The latter marched eastward.

Yang Feng was forced to lead his troops to the west.

Jianwen's army went on a northern expedition and recaptured the capital in one fell swoop.

How perfect!

"Shahru, arrange for someone to send Chen Shilang to Basra, don't see anyone halfway."

Timur looked at Shaharu and said.

He can't let the Persians and Arabs contact Chen Cheng, at least he can't let these people know what he is going to do, of course he knows very well that several places in Persia are strong and have been secretly colluding with Kazakhstan, and the Arabs and Bayesid are also in the same group, if these people know that he is going to attack Zhu Di, then the Persians will definitely tell him, and the latter is like Yang Feng's loyal dog, and it won't take long for Yang Feng to know. Similarly, if the Arabs knew that he was going to abandon the west, then Bayezid would know it quickly, and then Bayezid would quickly gather his forces and wait for him to go north to fight Zhu Di, and would not hesitate to stab him in the back.

It's all inevitable.

A common faith is not worth mentioning at this time.

He had to deal with Zhu Di secretly and quickly.

As long as he can quickly deal with Zhu Di, he will be able to gain the allegiance of the Golden Horde, at least the latter will continue to follow him, and at that time he can also quickly defeat Bayezet with the forces of the Golden Horde.

In the end, he couldn't have solved Bayezette, otherwise he would have stabbed him eastward.

If Bayezet is defeated, he will be the boss of their system, and he can even play a very attractive banner to gather all forces to go east together.

But now this is not possible.

Because Bayezet is just as ambitious and wants to do the same.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, the outside must first settle the inside, he can't go east without unifying the Western Regions, God doesn't work in these years, Bayezid's main thugs are Serbs, Tokhtamysh can unite with Lithuania, he can be a vassal to the Ming Dynasty, and God is only an option in front of interests.

To say that the real caliph is still in Egypt!

It's just that even the Egyptians themselves put him there like a vase.

Ah, this caliph is the descendant of refugees who fled to Egypt after the murder of his entire family by Hülegü.

"Chen Shilang, please!"

Shaharu immediately stepped forward and said to Chen Cheng.

"There is the fourth prince of Lao."

Chen Cheng hurriedly said.

He still has a good impression of Shahru, who can even speak a few words of Chinese, and there are a few merchants who have returned from the Ming Dynasty to explain Ming books to him......

Although it is.

But it is clear that this barbarism is not incapable of being indoctrinated.

He followed Shahru out of the tent, who immediately mobilized 300 cavalry, and even gave him gifts of dozens of camels, including of course tribute to the Ming Emperor, who had just sacked the Fertile Crescent before heading north to Georgia to suppress the Georgians. So now he has no shortage of treasures in his hands, in fact, he has always been very rich, after all, there are too many lootings, and there is almost no one in the entire Middle East and West Asia who is not poisoned by him, so no matter what Yang Feng or Zhu Di wants, he is very happy to give.

He has money.

There's no shortage of that.

Shaharu personally led his troops to escort Chen Cheng out of Tbilisi all the way before continuing south under the escort of those cavalry.

On the wasteland outside Tbilisi, the fourth prince stood there quietly watching Chen Cheng go away.

"Go to Baku!"

He said suddenly.

The cronies beside him nodded knowingly, and then urged the horse to go straight to Baku.

"To be a man, you must be self-aware, and you can't be the enemy of someone you can't defeat."

Shaharu stood there muttering to himself.

So......

"I always think it's unlikely, he is the son of Timur, and he is the only one of Timur's sons who is alive, and if Timur dies, he is likely to succeed to the throne."

The little princess looked at the urgent report in her hand and said.

It was already three months later, and in fact the capital had entered spring, and Shaharu's cronies had gone to Baku to tell a merchant there, who, although he was an Armenian merchant, was actually Gulina's man, or Yang Feng's employee to be precise. Yang Feng's commercial system in the Western Regions had been completed, and the city of Khujand, or Naturalization, controlled by Gulina, was the end of this system, where there were already hundreds of Ming employees, and then a large number of Armenian employees were employed.

The latter was meant to do just that.

Armenian Christians have always been the main merchant people of the Western Regions, constantly submitting to the overlords of Central Asia and then gaining protection and acting as merchants.

Originally, the first missionary who went to the Western Regions to the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Ming Dynasty in history entered the Western Regions as an Armenian merchant.

So Yang Feng also hired them, taking advantage of their natural hatred of Timur, who had been slaughtering as much during the conquest of Armenia, and the Armenians hated him deeply, so that Yang Feng could use them as his own merchants in Central Asia, after all, he did not have so many people to continue from Khujand. These Armenian merchants could not only obtain Gulina's protection and trade in various parts of the Western Regions as her subordinates, but also directly trade in the Ming Dynasty as employees of the Yang family. Although they could not be said to be loyal, they would not hesitate to choose Yang Feng between Timur and Yang Feng, and Shaharu knew this very well, so he sent someone to tell the Armenian merchant, who immediately crossed the Caspian Sea to the city of Naturalization to report to Gulina, who then sent Gulina to the capital by secret letter through the post road.

Of course, even that took three whole months.

In fact, even if Shaharu doesn't tell the truth, Yang Feng can also know that Chen Cheng has been known by many people from Basra all the way to Baghdad and then to Tbilisi.

At most, I don't know who he really is.

But it's already strange for someone like him to appear there, and you can basically guess it.

"So first of all Timur had to die."

Yang Feng said with a deep smile.

"You mean, he wanted his father to die early, and he told the truth in advance, so he is a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he must be the successor after his father's death?"

The little princess said.

"Clever man!"

Yang Feng said with emotion.

Indeed, Shaharu is a smart man......

He was indeed the most insidious and cunning of Timur's four sons.

He was well aware that it would be difficult for Timur to win the war, but it was in his favor that Timur died, and that Pier. Ma Heima supports the war, just like recruiting nuclear staff officers, so what he needs to do is to support Timur in the war to avoid being hacked to death by the nuclear staff officers, and at the same time secretly informant and play the role of a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty. Once Timur is defeated, then he will be the new lord of the river, and he also knows very well that the Ming will not be able to open up the river in the foreseeable future.

After all, there must be a vassal in the river.

And he doesn't have any big ambitions, what he wants is to be the king of Daming Kangju, originally in history, he could even kneel Zhu Di.

After Timur's death, his grandson Khalil himself succeeded to the throne. Ma Heima led his army to fight and was defeated, he took the opportunity to attack Samarkand to seize the throne, then stopped the killing, and released the Ming envoys who had been detained by Timur, reclaimed the tribute to Zhu Di, and turned to rest and recuperate within the Timurid Empire. Because his initial fief was Herat, and after seizing the throne, Herat was the capital, and the Ming Dynasty called it the Haret Kingdom, because he sealed his eldest son Ulugh Beg in Samarkand as the governor of the river, so the latter often paid separate tributes for trade, and the Ming Dynasty generally counted their father and son separately.

During his reign in the Timurid Empire, he had very frequent contacts with the Ming Dynasty, which can be said to be the most stable period of relations between the two sides.

"But how can we help the fourth brother."

The little princess said.

"me, he's been beaten up now."

Yang Feng said very simply.

Indeed, Zhu Di is now being beaten.
