Chapter 1000 The plan of Samarkand city - the biggest problem
After hearing this, Pilmahama immediately asked: "Grandpa, how can we get the Mongols to voluntarily serve as cannon fodder?" Although his skills were not high, he understood their plan after listening for a long time and hurriedly asked.
"The first is, of course, to make the Mongols believe that our army will be able to defeat the Ming Dynasty. The Mongols have been beaten terribly by the Ming Dynasty in the past twenty years. Since the death of Timur, there has never been a battle involving more than ten thousand people.
Defeated the Ming** team in China.”
"But the harder the Ming Dynasty fought, the more Mongolian people hated the Khitans. What's more, they originally enjoyed a very comfortable life in the Khitan people's land, but they were driven to the grasslands. I'm afraid what they think about day and night is
Defeat the Ming Kingdom and go back to live a comfortable life."
"Originally, they couldn't defeat the Ming Dynasty. They could only think about it in their hearts. But when I led the army to the Mongolian grassland and promised them that they could live the same life as before after entering the south of the Great Wall, they would definitely be willing to follow our army.
Fight." Timur said.
Shaharul and Yasib still had no doubts in their minds. Although the Mongols definitely wanted to defeat the Khitans and re-enter North China, they were not stupid and would not be willing to be cannon fodder. However, they felt that Timur must have something to say.
So I didn't speak.
Timur indeed has more to say. "Secondly, it is because I got a person. He is the son of the former Great Khan of the Yuan Dynasty, Nikuchi Sukqi Khan Elbek, and the younger brother of Jatemul Khan Kun Timur.
, Benya lost his way.”
"The Mongols attach great importance to bloodline. Only descendants of the Golden Family can be Great Khans. People like me, who are just the sons-in-law of the Golden Family, will not be recognized by them even if they call themselves Great Khans." Timur said with a smile: "This is a big deal.
Of course it’s not a good thing in normal times, but it was a good thing at that time.”
"The man who claims to be the Great Khan in the Mongolian grassland now, Uruktemul, is not a member of the Golden Family. Although he became the Great Khan by force with the power of his tribe, all the tribes refused to accept it, and the entire Mongolian grassland is actually in a state of division.
"
"And the Benyasili in my hand is an orthodox descendant of the Golden Family. As long as I take Benyasili to the Mongolian grassland and support him as the Mongolian Khan, many Mongolians will be willing to defect to him. Wait for me to eliminate him
After conquering the tribes of Uruktemul and integrating the Mongolian tribes, they can be used as cannon fodder for our army."
In fact, Timur always used military means to fight whenever political means were available. He tried every means to divide the enemy before the official war began, thereby defeating them at the minimum cost. Timur was invincible, and with the wide range of political means
Application is inseparable.
"Father, how can we ensure that Benya will agree with his father's approach after he becomes the Khan of Mongolia? Will he cross the river and burn the bridge? Even if he crosses the river and burns the bridge, we cannot kill him, otherwise the Mongols will immediately turn against us.
." Pir Mahama said again.
"You are right." Although Pir Mahama kept refuting him, Timur said happily: "But I can guarantee that Benya Shili will not be like this. Because he has converted to Tianfang Sect and believes in it.
God!"
"Not only him, but the hundreds of people he brought with him when he ran to Samarkand have already believed in Allah. If Benjali pretends to believe in Allah, it is impossible for the hundreds of people under him to believe in Allah.
Pretending.”
"In this way, the people Benyasili trusts most are believers in Allah. They will spare no effort to spread the faith of Allah in the Mongolian grasslands and encourage all Mongols to go south to attack the Khitan people."
"Benya Shili can only rely on these people. He cannot trust Arutai and others right away, so it is impossible to eradicate them and can only let them do whatever they want. With their instigation, our army will be able to get enough cannon fodder.
."
In fact, monotheistic religions are not monolithic. For believers, heretics are more abominable than pagans. Pagans may still survive, but heretics must die a good death. But of course these people under Benyasili are the same as Timur.
Since my son believes in the same faction, he will naturally work for me.
After hearing the last words, Pir Mahama and the other three people fully understood Timur's plan. They immediately felt that the plan was very reliable. They stood up and bowed and said: "Great Khan/Father/Grandpa is wise!"
Timur smiled and said a few more words, instructing Pir Mahama on what he needed to pay attention to when staying in the city of Samarkand. He also asked Shaharul to be cautious and to assess the situation during the Eastern Expedition. He also gave instructions.
A few things about Jesb.
After he finished his instructions, Pir Mahama and Shaharul bowed and left, and Jesb also bowed and bowed.
Timur breathed out and was about to stand up and move around. He raised his head and saw that Jesbu had not left yet. He asked strangely: "Jesbu, what else do you have to do?"
"Great Khan," Jesib quickly looked around to make sure there was no one else except the two of them, and then said with a slightly trembling voice: "Of course your plan is very good, but Great Khan, do you still have enough?"
