Piermaha said to the guards again: "Go out, all of you, take off your uniforms and run home." You don't have to die with me. And you all have families, even if it's for your families. ”

"The Ming army will not massacre the people in the city. There is only such a small population in the whole of Central Asia, and they have all been killed, who is he going to rule? From whom do you collect taxes? The Han Chinese, unlike the Mongols, had little interest in massacres. Of course, the robbery will happen for a few days, and if a Ming soldier grabs your head, bear with it; His daughters, wives and sisters have also been hidden, and they will be allowed to come out when order is restored. ”

"There is still some food in the backyard of the palace, you can take some with you when you pass by. But remember not to bring too much. ”

By this time the flames had burned all the silk cloth in the house, and the whole palace was enveloped in flames. Pier Mahama finally said to the guards: "Hurry up, if you don't go, you won't be able to go!" ”

"Great Khan!" Several people knelt down and bowed as if they were to Allah, then stood up and turned to leave the palace.

As soon as they walked out, they heard a "bang" from behind them, and the guards led by them wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes, but they did not stop, and fled back to their homes before the Ming army surrounded them.

……

……

"Pier Maha chose to commit suicide in order not to be captured by the Ming army or to be a puppet for his brothers." Abberke looked at the flaming palace and whispered.

"Prince, the Ming army has surrounded us, what should we do?" His guard asked anxiously. He could hear what Abberk had said to Pier Maha that night. If Abuberk is going to kill himself, they are also prepared.

But Abu Berke said: "Open the gate, lay down your arms, I surrender to the Ming Kingdom!" ”

"W-yes, Prince." The guard was taken aback, but finally turned around quickly and agreed to go out with an order.

"I don't know if I'll be executed immediately or what, if only I could go to the mainland of Ming Kingdom to have a look."

……

……

"Pil Maha committed suicide, Abu Berk was captured?" Shang Bing said with some surprise.

"Yes, Your Highness." One of the generals in charge of leading troops to surround the palace said.

"Song Xiang, since Pier Maha has committed suicide, don't worry about him, just find a place to bury it; Abuberke was captured, what should I do? Shang Bing couldn't make up his mind and asked Song Shengdao.

According to his heart, of course, he wanted to kill all the descendants of Timur. But now that he is in the city of Samarkand, most of the soldiers under his command and the people who will rule in the future believe in the Heavenly Sect, and follow the rules of the Heavenly Side, believing that the nobles who have surrendered cannot be killed at will. Now Shang Bing still needs their support, and he must take into account the feelings of the locals.

"Your Highness, since you are in a dilemma, leave the matter to Your Majesty to deal with." Song Sheng said: "Send someone to send Abuberk back to the capital along with some craftsmen and mullahs from the seminary. His Royal Highness is a vassal king canonized by His Majesty, and it is reasonable to hand over a prince like Aberke to His Majesty's disposal, and the people here can understand. As for Abuberke's delivery to the capital, no matter what His Majesty does, the people here will not know. ”

"Okay, let's do it." Shang Bing said.

He then instructed the general to send Abberk to the barracks.

The general agreed, and when he saw that His Highness had no other instructions, he was about to retire, but Shang Bing suddenly thought of something and asked, "What about Sha Micha Gan?" I sent him to attack the palace, why did you come to report this to Gu Ju, not him? ”

"Your Highness, the prince of Shami Chagan was attacked by the guards of Pier Mahama during the siege of the palace, and was seriously injured, and has been sent to the military medical center for rescue." The general replied.

"It's such a big deal, why didn't you tell Lone right away!" Shang Bingleng paused for a moment, and then asked.

"Your Highness, the minister has already known about this matter, and planned to report it to His Highness, but His Highness was instructing the craftsmen to arrange it at that time, and the minister was worried about disturbing His Highness, so he did not report it to His Highness immediately; After that, because of the many things, the minister forgot about it. Please also ask Your Highness to punish you. Song Sheng said immediately.

"That's it, you are also unintentional, and you will not be punished. Stand down. Shang Bing finally said to the general. The general immediately saluted and withdrew.

After the general left, Shang Bing's expression suddenly changed, and he asked in a deep voice, "Song Xiang didn't forget to report this matter to Gu Xuan, right?" ”

"The execution of Shami Chagan was confessed to the minister by His Majesty before leaving, and the minister also talked to His Highness, but His Highness was merciful and unwilling to execute him, so the minister shared his worries for His Highness."

"The minister originally planned to wait for Sha Michagan's death to report to His Highness, but he did not inform His Highness immediately." Song Sheng said.

Shang Bing's face was even more ugly and stared at Song Sheng. Although Shami Chagan and his Yili performed badly in the Battle of Yiwu and the Battle of Iwu, Shang Bing established a friendship with Shami Chagan in the fifth year of Yiwu, and his eldest son also made Shami Chagan's daughter a concubine, and he was unwilling to kill him even if he was very dissatisfied with Shami Chagan. But he didn't expect Song Sheng to do it himself.

Shang Bing stared at Song Sheng a few times, as if he wanted to say something; But he still didn't say anything, just sighed. Although Shami Chagan's prestige is not high even in the country, with the strong entry of the acting king Zhu Gui, it is likely that the various tribes in Yili will unite around Shami Chagan to confront Zhu Gui.

But as soon as Shami Chagan died, his son was still young, and his younger brother Ma Ma was also controlled by the Ming Dynasty, and the various tribes in Yili Jiang could not form a core to fight against Zhu Gui, and it would be easier for Zhu Gui to rule the Gurbantunggut Basin. So you have to get rid of Shamichagan.

"Sha Micha is also the king of a country, choose a good place to bury him." Shang Bing finally said.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Because of the relationship between Sha Micha and being eliminated without his permission, Shang Bing's interest was not high, and he let him step down without saying a few words to Song Sheng.

Three days later, on the fourth day of November, Shang Bing ordered a halt to the looting, forbade violations of military discipline, and violators were to be put to death. The soldiers in the city hurriedly returned to their residences with large bags and small bags, and carefully counted how many things they had robbed this time. But not all of these things will fall into the hands of creeps. Two-thirds of them will be handed over, half of them will be divided by generals at all levels, and only one-third of the total number will fall into Shang Bing's hands. However, even if it is only one-third, it is already a lot, plus the royal treasury that has not been looted by the soldiers, Shang Bing has a lot of money in his hands.

Shang Bing, who had a loose hand, immediately bought a lot of goods from the caravan from the west. Looting destroyed a lot of things, and they all need to be replaced; Moreover, the merchants who went out with the envoy's team in this era must have colluded with the envoy and bought so many goods, and the envoys would have been happy. They were happy, and it was good for achieving the diplomatic goals set by Shang Bing and Song Sheng.

I don't know if the purchase of goods played a role, or they were all frightened by the glorious deeds of the Ming Dynasty to defeat Timur, and all the envoys were very cooperative, saying that the king would definitely send troops to seize the lost territory of his country and contain the experience of Samarkand.

"I don't know if what they say is true or not!" Sending the last messenger away, Shang Bing wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself. The envoys were all human spirits, but they were not easy to deal with, and even when the weather was so cold, his forehead kept sweating during the negotiation.

"Is the bath water that Lone ordered boiled?" Shang Bing asked the eunuch beside him again.

"Report to Your Highness, it has already been burned."

"Okay." Shang Bing said this word, stood up and was about to take a shower.

But at this moment, suddenly a guard ran in and said to Shang Bing: "Your Highness, someone from outside the country has come to Samarkand City and asked to see Your Highness. Prime Minister Song asked His Highness to come over to discuss. ”

"I'll talk about it when I'm done taking a shower." Shang Bing commanded casually.

"Your Highness, the foreign appearance that came this time is not ordinary, and it is very important to the Qin Domain, Prime Minister Song asks His Highness to go over and discuss it immediately." The guard repeated what he had heard.

"What tribe is so important to the Qin Domain?"
