"Boom!" A thunderclap rang out, followed by the sound of rain falling, and the sky began to rain again, as if mourning for the dead.

Yun Xi stood beside the bed, and suddenly had a trace of indescribable emotion. Although he and Timur were hostile, in any case, Timur was the most famous figure in the West and one of the most powerful people in the world of this era, and is still known by many people and studied by many historians until later generations.

There was something uncomfortable in his heart. Although Timur was his opponent, and if he lost this battle and was captured by him, he still felt a little uncomfortable. Probably because an era has ended. Yun Xi thought.

"Spread my will, Timur was the Great Khan of Samarkand during his lifetime, and he should not be dealt with as a general captive. He ordered the preparation of a good coffin and the collection of Timur's body. At the same time, I prepared the necessary things for burial, and I wanted to transport Timur's body back to the capital for burial. He then spoke again in Mongolian to Timur's servant Samachi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor for your grace." Samaki saluted and said, "But Your Majesty the Emperor, according to the rules of our Heavenly Sect, we should hold a funeral for the Great Khan as soon as possible, and put him in the ground. The Prophet said: 'Bury the dead quickly, and if they are happy, let them be blessed as soon as possible, and if they are unfortunate, keep them out of Hell as soon as possible.' ''If you die in the morning, you shall not rest for noon, and if you die in the evening, you shall not stay overnight.''" Even if for some reason it is not possible to bury it immediately, find a place to bury it within three days. ”

Hearing Samachi's words, Yun Xi blinked, the expression on his face slowly returned to normal, and the sadness over Timur's death had disappeared without a trace. He exhaled and said to Samachi: "I know the three rules of the funeral rites of the Heavenly Sect, the burial, the thin burial, and the quick burial. However, now the entire Western Regions is not suitable for the burial of Timur Khan, and his body can only be buried by bringing his body back to the capital of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"I will arrange for someone to send the body of Timur Khan back to the capital as soon as possible, at most two months, no, a month and a half, and his body can be sent back to the capital. At that time, whether I am in the capital or not, his body will be buried. If I were there, I would have presided over his funeral myself; If I am not there, the minister of the court will preside over in my place. His voice was not stern, but it was unmistakable.

Samache suddenly realized that the person in front of him was the emperor of the Ming Kingdom, and although he was kind to him at this time, he actually had no ability to change his mind at all. Even if Samaki was dissatisfied with Yun Xi's decision, he could only bow down and agree, saying: "Your Majesty the Emperor has considered it very properly, but I hope that His Majesty the Emperor will not cremate the body of Timur Khan, but put it in the ground." ”

"And the Great Khan had already built a tomb for himself near the city of Samarkand during his lifetime. Although our Tianfang Sect advocates thin burial, this is only for the funerary goods, not the appearance of the tomb, so I hope that His Majesty the Emperor can build a tomb of no low specifications for the Great Khan, and do it in accordance with the regulations of the Tianfang Sect. ”

"Of course you can." Although Yun Xi felt that he was actually quibbling, a truly devout Heavenly Sect should not even care about the appearance of the tomb. But he didn't care.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor for your grace." Samache saluted again.

Yun Xi raised the coffee cup and took a sip of coffee, said a few words to Samachi with a pleasant face, comforted him not to be too sad, and then said: "Samaqi, although you are the servant of Timur Khan, but now that Timur Khan is dead, there is no need for your service, and I can't make a special exception for you, so I can only let you live in a prisoner camp tonight." But you are different from them after all, you have not eaten at the right time, and I will immediately have someone bring you food, so that you can eat and drink enough to enter the prisoner camp. ”

"There is nothing wrong with what Your Majesty said, but may I keep a wake for the Great Khan tonight?" Samachi said.

"No need, I will specially arrange for someone to keep a vigil for Timur Khan, and I will definitely not neglect him." Yun Xi said.

Samache had no choice but to agree.

Soon, the cook in the camp had already brought his meal over. Tonight, because the war has basically been won, the food is good, and it is enough to serve one serving, and there is no need to make another special one, so it is very fast.

While he was eating, Yun Xi sat on the side and chatted with him, asking about the customs of Samarkand. Although Timur had already talked to Yunxi just now, the territory of Samarkand was so large, and they had only talked for half an hour, of course, they couldn't finish talking. Samache was not surprised either, and introduced him to the customs of various places.

After chatting for a long time, when his meal was almost finished, Yun Xi asked, "In your West, are all people really so religious about religion?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, all of our western and central peoples on the continent are very religious and all of us, except in rare cases, all of us act in strict accordance with the requirements of the canon, whether we are Celestials or Crucifixioners. There may be some people who are not so religious in their religion, but they have to pretend to be religious in this environment. Over time, the provisions of the canon became part of the habits of these people's lives, and they could no longer get rid of them. ”

"Does your Allah often perform miracles or send oracles?" Yun Xi asked again.

"No, Allah, as the Lord of the world, will not do such things often, but he will do it in some special circumstances, such as this divine war."

"But I still can't imagine that the gods of Buddhism can go one step further and perform miracles directly on the battlefield in addition to sending down oracles!" Samache said with surprise still uncontrollable.

Hearing him say this, Yun Xi's face flashed with joy, but then disappeared without a trace. He chatted with Samache a little more on this subject, and then sent him to the prisoner camp.

But just as Samaki left the tent, Song Qingshu, Yunxi's guard, walked in and said to him, "Your Majesty, things have been arranged. With the news from the spies sent to Samarkand City before, he successfully created an identity for Tie Cheng that would not show flaws, and it was also the identity of the soldiers who could hear the main army led by Salha last night talk about the 'Buddha apparition' last night. With this identity, he has successfully infiltrated the captive camp, and even if Samach will not say that the gods and Buddhas have sent down oracles and this battle is a matter of divine war, he will find a way to spread the news in the captive camp. ”

"Got it, stand down." Yun Xi said. Song Qingshu immediately bowed and retreated. He didn't fully understand what Yun Xi's plan was, but he vaguely felt that His Majesty was playing a big game of chess. But he had no desire to explore it. He has been by Yunxi's side for several years, and his most important experience is not to ask things that should not be asked, and not to know things that should not be known.

After that, Yunxi stood alone in the tent and said to himself, "I hope my plan will work." ”

This afternoon, when Timur asked why Yun Xi knew about his plan to go east several years in advance, Yun Xi wanted to tell him the truth, that is, he had more than 600 years of memories in the afterlife, so he was able to prepare in advance. He had even arranged for a painter to pretend to be a waiter in the carriage, ready to record Timur's stunned expression at that moment and draw it later, treasure it in the royal treasury, and turn it out to see when he has nothing to do.

But when he discovered that Timur's servant Samach also knew Mongolian, he changed his mind, and a larger and more far-reaching plan came to mind.

The purpose of this plan is to allow Buddhism to be re-spread in the Western Regions, but Buddhism's combat effectiveness is not as good as that of Tianfangjiao, and he is not willing to reorganize Buddhism into a system similar to Tianfangjiao, which will make it difficult for the government to control it, so in order to promote Buddhism, he needs to provide some boosters for Buddhism, that is, 'Buddha manifestations'. This will make the people of the Western Regions really believe in the existence of the Buddha, so that they are willing to convert to Buddhism.

But for the people of the Western Regions, it was obviously more acceptable for the Han Chinese from the Central Plains to preach this to them, rather than the captured soldiers of Samarkand. In their opinion, the Han people in the Central Plains were originally followers of Buddhism, and it was natural to fabricate some Buddhist miracles; However, the soldiers captured from Samarkand were originally Celestials, and their stories of Buddhist miracles were accepted by the locals as genuine.

So Yunxi decided to tell Timur that big lie, let Samach hear it, and send Samach to the captive camp after Timur's death. At the same time, it was arranged for Tie Cheng, a Buddhist, who he accidentally discovered when he forcibly relocated the Tianfang Sect and Crucidian Sect throughout the country before his expedition to Annam, to enter the prisoner camp as a prisoner.

In the prisoner camp, Tie Cheng would pretend to be frightened and tell others about the 'miracle' of Fang Zheng's thunder last night, and many of the soldiers who followed Salha to attack the camp survived and were imprisoned, and they would confirm that Tie Cheng's words were true.

When Samach would also say the oracle he had spoken of in his previous conversation with Timur, the captives would no longer doubt it; At the same time, because this battle was a war of gods and Allah of the Celestial Sect was defeated, they would rush to convert to Buddhism and complete Yun Xi's plan.

Yun Xi thought about the whole plan from beginning to end again, made sure that there were no loopholes, and instructed the guards to tell the guards to pay attention to the prisoner camp not to make trouble, and planned to rest.

But he tossed and turned in bed for an hour and never fell asleep. Today he defeated the state of Samarkand and even captured Timur, changing the course of the entire world history, the aftermath of which will spread throughout the known world in a short time, and even if you don't rush to get excited about it, just thinking about the course of world history after that is enough to make brain cells work non-stop, and it is normal to not be able to sleep.

Yun Hee got up again, put on his clothes, walked out of the tent, and walked around the camp under the escort of the guards.

By this time the rain had stopped, and since the night was already deep, the rest of the camp was very quiet except for those who were still on duty. The soldiers were tired all day, and although it was exciting to defeat Xilu, Xu Huizu did not let the soldiers celebrate because the war was not completely over, and they were also very tired, so he went to sleep.

He looked up at the moon in the sky, muttered a few words, and then continued his stroll, and walked out of the camp where he lived. The soldiers on duty who met along the way were very surprised to see their group, and when they learned that it was the emperor who was on night patrol, they knelt down excitedly and saluted. Yun Xi reassured them one by one and let them continue to patrol.

Soon the military general who was on duty tonight appeared. "Chen Song Sheng has seen Your Majesty." Song Sheng saluted him.

"Song Aiqing is exempt." Yun Xi smiled: "Why are you on duty tonight?" Isn't it usually arranged for a staff member? ”

"Your Majesty, it is true that a staff general has been arranged to be on duty, but the minister can't sleep tonight, so he is responsible for getting up; Originally, Wei Guogong also wanted to be on duty, but he has been very busy since last night, and he has not rested for more than ten hours, so he really can't hold back and sleep. Song Sheng replied.

Yun Xi said a few words to him, and then said, "Song Aiqing should hurry up and rest." The battle is not over yet, and even if the battle is over, there are many things that need to be dealt with, so you should have a good rest. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Song Sheng agreed, and he was about to retreat.

"Slow!" Yun Xi suddenly remembered something: "What I ordered at night today has already been arranged?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister has informed Commander Cao and Commander Song that the two of them have no intention of refusing this at all, and promise to complete Your Majesty's order. It's just that it's getting late and it's raining again, so I'll leave early tomorrow morning. ”

"I know, you can step down." Yun Xi said. Song Sheng bowed and retreated.

"Whether you can succeed in this battle depends on the two of you." Yun Xi muttered again.

He then wandered around the camp for a while, feeling sleepy, and turned back to rest. He walked to the gate of the camp, and the guards bowed to him. Yun Xi hurriedly asked them to be exempted.

Most of the soldiers quickly straightened up and continued to be on duty, but one of them suddenly shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask Your Majesty." ”

"You are, Qin Shuang?" Yun Xi still remembers this outstanding graduate of the martial arts hall at the end of last year: "What do you ask me for?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister was originally born in Yiwu, and the minister's father was sent to Tiemen Pass to build a city before the Western Expedition, and his life and death are unknown. Xianxi was defeated, and the minister asked His Majesty to allow the minister to go to the Iron Gate Pass to find his father. Qin Shuang knelt down and said.

"I'm ready, I promise you to lead the soldiers of your department to the Iron Gate Pass tomorrow." Yun Xi knew about it. In his opinion, Qin Shuang's father, Qin Shouye, could not be alive at all now, and Qin Shuang could only bring back his father's corpse when he went to Tiemen Pass, or worse, he couldn't even bring back the corpse. However, there is no shortage of such soldiers on the battlefield now, and the geographical location of the Iron Gate Pass is important, so there is nothing wrong with letting him go and investigate.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Qin Shuang kowtowed again and said.
