"Dr. Oishi!"

"Swear to the death!"

"Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy the evil demons ......"

When al-Buhari, Sanjar's envoy, heard the cheers coming from the square of the New Broken Leaf City, he looked back at the long four-wheeled carriage behind him—full of gold and silver treasures! No, it is all gold treasures, not silver. Converted into copper coins at least a million yuan! It is more than twice the annual coins collected by the Great Liao State from the Great Song Dynasty.

Still, Bukhari felt that the gifts were too few...... Listening to the thunderous cheers of the Khitan Gulam warriors, he felt that there was less money.

With such a loud noise, it seems that the Khitans really sent 10,000 Gulam warriors! Before arriving at Stone City, he had already inquired with the warriors of the Qarakhanid Dynasty who had escaped death. It was known that the Persians guarding Barasagon were overwhelmed by tens of thousands of armored cavalry.

At that time, Bukhari did not believe it, because he knew that the Persian soldiers of the Qarakhanid dynasty were all waste, and he himself was a member of the Western Qarakhanid dynasty. Oh, that is, a peach blossom stone person, that is, a Chinese. His name "Bukhari" comes from Bukhara, the capital of the Western Qarakhanids.

So he knew very well the combat effectiveness of these Persian mercenaries, how could they be overwhelmed by tens of thousands of Khitan armored cavalry? If there really are so many armor riders, you don't need to rush, you can scare them all away by showing them to the garbage.

Therefore, Bukhari did not believe that the Khitans really took out so many "Gulam", but now he has heard it with his own ears and seen it with his own eyes. There were so many screaming pagan warriors, but this high morale, and the queues they had in the main square, was not something that ordinary nomadic cavalry could have.

But what are tens of thousands of Khitan Gulam gathered in the big square of Barasagon (New Broken Leaf City), and they are still screaming so much? It must be the Buddhist monks of the Khitan people who are mobilizing for war! This is amazing, tens of thousands of Khitan Gulam, I don't know how many Khitan nomadic cavalry, all have to kill Benkhara and Samarkand......

Frightened by the tens of thousands of screaming knights of Celestial Reason, who were at most rookie knights, Bukhari was finally taken to the royal city of Barasagon (New Broken Leaves), where he waited for a while in a hall where his style had changed dramatically and he had made the mistake of idolatry (with a statue of Confucius with angry eyes and a sword).

Dashi was followed by a young leader of the Yemili Khitan tribe who could speak Turkic and Uighur dialects, named Yelu Han'er, whose name seemed a little strange, how could a Khitan surnamed Yelu call Han'er? But Yelu Dashi knew what was going on? This "Jelu" and Jelu of Jelu Dashi are not the same way, and they are descendants of the Nine Tents of Yaoyuan. The Yaoran clan is one of the eight ancient Khitans, and once established a Yaoran Han state in the Tang Dynasty, not a khanate, but a Han state, which was actually a tribal alliance, and was later captured by the Yelu clan.

However, some of the descendants of the Nine Tents are very nostalgic for the glory of the clan, and they will reflect it in their names. Among the Khitan nomadic tribes who were sent to harass the Qarakhanid Dynasty a hundred years ago, many of them were obviously born in the Yelu clan of Yaoyuan Nine Tents, so until now there are still people who will add "Han" to their names, in fact, it is not nostalgic for the Han Kingdom, but a habit.

In the Khitan itself, the descendants of the Nine Tents have long been no longer named like this, and the Buddhist name is the most popular Khitan name now! Fortunately, Ye Mili's 30,000 Khitan tribes do not eat fasting and chanting Buddha, they are all based on primitive shamanism, and they are in a relatively easy stage of development.

Therefore, on the way to Barasagon, Yelu Dashi, Xiao Tieniu, and Han Dagou began to preach diligently. It's playing prophecy, making miracles, and reasoning, and finally pulls a lot of leaders of the Khitan tribe into the religion, oh, it should be a conversion to heavenly principles.

This Yelu Han'er is one of them, and he also became a disciple of Yelu Dashi, that is, the disciple of Wu Haogu.

"Ask him," said Yelu Dashi, who sat down on a chair next to the statue of Confucius with a sword in the angry eyes, and then pointed to Bukhari, who was standing in the middle of the hall trembling a little, and said to Yelu Han'er, "what is he doing here?" Is it here to declare war? ”

"Hey, old imam, the prince asked you what you were doing? Is it here to declare war? ”

Yelu Han'er's tone was very stiff, and his face was very ugly. His tribe had been oppressed by the Qarakhanid Dynasty, who believed in the Heavenly Religion, for 100 years, and now he had finally turned over, and of course he wished to go to Baghdad and capture the caliph alive.

But Jerodashi didn't have that kind of ambition. As soon as Xiao Heda left, he had 30,000 tribes and 9,000 "Heavenly Knights" in his hands, and his strength was very limited. If Sanjar waved his army north, with the few men and horses in his hands, he would probably have to run back to Yemili again.

Even if Sanjar does not come, his rule in the newly broken stone town (Tashkent) is not very secure. Because there is still a force that can compete with him in the land of the seven rivers, and that is the Qarluqs who live here.

They were a nomadic tribe that had long since converted to the Celestial Religion and were the heroes of the founding of the Qarakhanid Dynasty, so they were placed in the land of the Seven Rivers near the capital of the Qarakhanid Empire, Barasagon, and had considerable autonomy.

When Yelu Dashi and Xiao Heda marched to Barasagon, they also encountered some riots of Qarluq cavalry, but because the Xiliang cavalry wearing front armor was too strong in combat and did not let them take advantage of it, they were able to deter the various Qarluq tribes.

But now that Xiao Heda is gone, and Yelu Dashi has no available elite riders for the time being, sooner or later the Qarluqs will notice this, and then they will come to look for trouble...... And Yelu Dashi's strategy is to bluff as much as possible to scare the Qarluqs, and at the same time speed up the training of 9,000 water-filled "Heavenly Knights".

If Wu Haogu, the mentor who was far away in Jiehe Shang City, could understand his painstaking efforts and send dozens of doctors and officers, then the process of training the "Heavenly Knights" would definitely be greatly accelerated. Maybe by this time next year, Yelu Dashi will be able to have some confidence - because the original Western Xia is a soldier for all people, the auxiliary soldiers brought by Xiao Heda can also fight on the battlefield. In addition, they were all cavalry auxiliaries, and they were all able to ride horses, serve horses, and shoot two arrows on horseback. Therefore, it is not too difficult to train into a shock cavalry, and the difficulties encountered by Yelu Dashi now are mainly due to the fact that there are a few excellent officers.

"Honorable prince," Bukhari saluted, crossing his hands and pressing his shoulders and bending down, "I am the messenger of the caliphate, and I have come in search of peace. ”

"Doctor, he said he had come to sue for peace on behalf of the Caliph."

In fact, Yelu Dashi already knew that Bukhari came with a lot of "gold treasures", and he must have sued for peace! Who would declare war with gold and silver treasures?

"Oh, it's to deal with Song Jun first, and then deal with me Da Liao, right?" Yelu Dashi said lightly.

"The prince said that you want to defeat the Song Kingdom first, and then attack my Great Liao Heavenly Soldiers?"

I was actually recognized!

Bukhari's heart tightened, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Respected prince, our Great Food Country will never dare to start a war against the powerful Khitan. We will only attack the weak and ignorant Upper Peach Blossom Stone Kingdom...... If the Khitan is willing to join forces with us, our two countries can completely divide the Peach Blossom Stone Kingdom......"

His words were translated into Khitan again, and then it caused a burst of wild laughter from Yelu Dashi: "You are also qualified to say that the Great Song Dynasty is weak? What a bunch of frogs at the bottom of the well! ”

Jeruhanel translated: "The prince says you are like a frog. ”

Like a frog? Bukhari was stunned, he was good-looking, his facial features were upright, his beard was very long, and it was all up to his chest. Who has ever seen a frog with a beard that long?

"Do you princes agree to make peace with the Great Food Country?" Bukhari didn't think about the frog anymore, and asked for Dashi's answer.

Yelu Dashi listened to his translator and said with a smile: "If I promise you, your caliph and sultan will definitely go to fight against the Great Song Dynasty, right?" It's also nothing...... You won't win anyway! But what do I get? ”

"My prince said that you will definitely not be able to defeat the Peach Blossom Stone Army, but he will not stop you if you want to send him to death, as long as you give double the treasure, he will not move."

Will you not be able to defeat the Peach Blossom Stone Army? Bukhari would not have believed such a prophecy. And this matter is not in his hands, his task is to conclude a contract with the Khitans.

So when I heard that the other party was willing to stand still just because he wanted twice as much treasure, I sighed in my heart.

It seems that Allah is still on the side of the Turks.

"We are willing to double the prince's treasure, but the prince must sign a formal treaty with us." Bukhari said, "And the Western Qarakhanid is also a subsidiary of the Great Food State, if you Khitan are not willing to go to war with the Great Food State, then you cannot invade the territory of the Western Qarakhanid......

How could Yelu Dashi have the strength to fight the Western Karakhanate? He now had no hands to clean up even the Qarluqs in the Land of the Seven Rivers and the remnants of the Eastern Qarakhanid State entrenched in Talas.

However, he couldn't show his cowardice in front of the envoys of the Turkic state, so he snorted coldly and said: "The land of the Western Qarakhanid Dynasty is also what the Great Liao Heavenly Son wants!" However, I can not attack for the time being, because your sultan will definitely not be able to defeat the Song army, and when he is defeated, I will take the Western Qarakhanid!" ”

"My prince said he could wait until your sultan was defeated by the Upper Peach Blossom Stone State before marching into the Western Qarakhanate!"

That's too much to look down on, isn't it? Bukhari didn't know how many barbarians he scolded in his heart, but he was still very respectful on his face.

As long as this group of stupid Khitans does not march into the river when Emir Sanjar marches into Kashgar, no matter how ugly they are, it only shows their own stupidity.

When the Shangtaohuashi army is defeated, it will naturally be the turn of the Khitans.

Thinking of this, Bukhari added: "In accordance with the custom of the Land of the Seven Rivers, both sides should swear in the name of their own gods and keep the peace treaty. ”

Dashi listened to Bukhari's last request, stood up from his chair, and pointed to the statue of Confucius holding a sword with angry eyes beside him, "We are far away from the ghosts and gods, so we will not swear in front of the gods. Only the Heavenly Principles, the Ancestors, and the Saints are what we believe in! ”
