In order to completely solve the lost forces of Tokhtamysh, Timur once again mobilized a large army to the north. Not to be outdone, Tokhtamysh gathered a larger army. Before the war, however, the Mongols and Turks under Tokhtamysh found that Timur's army was different.

Although it stands to reason that the Timurid Khanate was also a Mongol-Turkic regime, and his main force should be the nomadic cavalry of his headquarters, there were a large number of Persians in this army in front of him.

The Persians have always been known for their weak soldiers, and filling these people into the front shows that Timur's strength has been greatly reduced, and he can only harden the façade and embolden himself. As a result, the nobles under Tokhtamysh's men fell into a mood of blind contempt for the enemy, and even ignored the orders of the Great Khan himself to fight a decisive battle with Timur.

However, the Persians under Timur were much more effective than expected, and the Golden Horde army was defeated instead. At this time, the Purple Horde general Guo Xian had already invaded Beergosale, Tokhtar was lost and homeless, and led a small number of remnants of the army to defeat and defect to Lithuania. The Golden Horde changed hands again.

Timur had planned to destroy Belgosare once and for all, to prevent the growth of an opponent who could threaten him. But the Purple Horde believed that in this case, the enemy had lost the ability to make a comeback, and there was no need to abandon the city.

At that time, the Purple Horde was quite concerned about the north, and always wanted to reopen the steppe Silk Road, and Belgosalai was a key hub for opening up trade routes, so it was reluctant to give up and destroy it.

After all, Timur did his best, and in order to show respect, the Purple Horde suggested that the name of Belgosally be changed to "Timur Salai" to commemorate his great military exploits. In the future, the city was jointly run by both parties, collecting merchant taxes and tributes from the surrounding steppe tribes.

Although at this time, the eastern section of the steppe Silk Road had been basically broken, but as a regional trade center, the city of Salai was still quite oily. Timur was pleased with this suggestion and agreed to their request.

After that, the Purple Horde began to invest in it as well.

Sarai is the Persian word for "city". The first capital of the Golden Horde was the "Batu Sarai" established by Batu. Later, the successor of the Great Khan Belgo moved the capital to the banks of the Volga River and established a new capital "Belgosare".

These places, even if they have been destroyed many times in history, can always be rebuilt because of their important location. By the time of the rise of Russia, the city of Tsaritsyn was established near Belgosala, and Batu Saray became Astrakhan, which shows the significance of the geographical location.

The main force of the Purple Horde was limited in number and could not stay here forever, so the Khanate hired nearby Slavs to serve as guards. The biggest threat here is the Lost Remnants of Tokhtamysh, and the Slavs have centuries of enmity with the nomadic tribes around them, so they have to resist very hard.

"Timur" means iron, and "Sarai" means city. Therefore, the local Slavs also called it "Stalingrad", which also means "Iron City".

After the army withdrew, Tokhtamysh launched several attacks, all of which were defeated by the mercenaries defending the city. The city has gradually settled down and become the core of a stable periphery.

After the Tokhtamysh was settled, the Ottoman Sultanate, which was entrenched in Asia Minor and the Caucasus, became the next target.

Despite their small size, the Ottomans were no opponent to be taken lightly. Because the strength of such a country is often not determined by looking at the territory alone.

The Ottomans are located at the junction of two civilizations and can also be seen as the frontier of the Celestial world. The culture and customs here are quite different from those of the hinterland.

The backbone of the Ottomans was the Mujahideen group known as "Ghazi". The constant influx of nomadic tribes, exiles, and fanatics from the East provided him with a steady supply of troops, allowing the Sultan to use forces far beyond his territory.

This tradition has a long history in Asia Minor. In 1071, the Seljuk Turks defeated the Eastern Roman army in Manchikot, and it is generally believed that this battle opened the door for the Turkic tribes to advance westward.

Of course, this statement is not accurate, because the Turks are just their own name. In the eyes of the most literate Persians in the region, these people can only be called "Turkmen", which means like Turkic rather than Turkic people - after all, the Persians have seen the real Turkic Khanate, and people will not be mistaken.

Moreover, the Turkmen tribes were not all Turkmen from Central Asia, in fact, the first wave to invade Asia Minor, loot and occupy Roman territory was mainly the local Armenians.

The Armenian state has a long history, and their Christian churches are older than those in Europe. The country's territory has changed a lot in its history, and in many cases it is a somewhat vague general term, and the internal forces are quite complex.

These Armenian tribes from the Caucasus soon seized a piece of land in Asia Minor under the banner of jihad and established the Danishmander dynasty. Therefore, the first "Turks" to invade Rome may not even be Turkmen, but Armenians.

After a few years of jihad in the area, the Armenians seem to have discovered that their religion is not quite right. So, they reacted and announced that they had joined the Heavenly Sect.
