The Balashagun Great Khan Palace, as the palace of a powerful Khanate that once dominated Central Asia, is really shabby and narrow. Not to mention the palaces of Baghdad and Isfahan, even compared with the Alka Forbidden City in Bukhara, the capital of the Western Karakhanate, it is still much worse than that of the Alka Forbidden City, Bukhara, and I don’t know how much the Alka Forbidden City is the forbidden palace of the Saman Dynasty, which once possessed Persian territory.

From the size and decoration of this Khan Palace, you can probably see the poverty of the Dongkarakhan Dynasty. To put it more harshly, the Dongkarakhan Dynasty, which was founded on the basis of the four Anxi towns of the Tang Dynasty, was a poor Khanate with no financial resources. The territory of this country was somewhat income in the era when the Silk Road was unobstructed, but after the long tug-of-war in Song and Xia, the trade volume of the Silk Road dropped sharply, and the countries and cities along the way lost their former prosperity and prosperity.

In fact, no money is not particularly fatal to a Turkic Khanate. When the Kara Khanate emerged, it was poorer than it is now!

However, the poor Karakhanate learned the rich and ill Gulam system of the Saman Dynasty and spent huge amounts of money on Gulam's war slave soldiers. And they also had to compete with the Turks and Fatima dynasties who occupied the Middle East for limited Gulam resources. How could they not become a weak person?

Yu Sufu, the leader of the Ilik of the East Karakhan Dynasty, knew very well about the fatal weaknesses of his own Khanate. Therefore, after being caught by Han Dagou, a Xiawanhu under Yelu Dashi, he quickly realized the general trend of the reunification of the motherland, resolutely abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and returned to the embrace of the people.

In the dim light of the auditorium hall of the Great Khan Palace, the self-proclaimed commander Yelu Dashi and the Hexi Army General Officer Xiao Heda sat side by side. On the front of the two of them, there was a young man in the Tang suit named Pugu Zhongyi standing in front of the right.

This young man was the former King Gaochang, the current Beiting Grand Protector, and the younger brother of King Gaochang Zhao Pijia. Because he was proficient in Chinese, Uighur, Turkic, Khitan, and Persian, he became the translator of the army and followed Yelu Dashi all the way to Balashaguen.

Now he was translating Yu Sufu's words, who were kneeling in front of Yelu Dashi and Xiao Heda, into Chinese, word by word.

"...The Seljuk Turkic Kingdom and the Great Food Kingdom are actually one! The Great Food Kingdom has long been weak. It is only because the king of the country, the Caliph was the leader of the Tianfang Sect, so the Seljuk Turks were regarded as a puppet and used to command the countries that believed in the Tianfang Sect. It was a bit like using the emperor to command the princes. Therefore, once the leader of the Seljuk Turkic Turkic, the Caliph could declare a holy war, and all the Tianfang Sect countries in the world would support the Governor Jabir!

Moreover, this Governor Jabir is very powerful because he controls most of Persia and can also obtain tribute from Basra Port and the Western Kara Khanate. Therefore, he has enough financial resources to raise Guram. It is said that there are tens of thousands of Guram warriors under him! It is not comparable to the Lion Khan of the East Kara Khan.

At present, Governor Jabir is leading troops to fight in the Kingdom of Kaseni. The Kingdom of Kaseni is south of the Palacio, and is bounded by the Eastern Karakhan Dynasty with the snow-capped mountains and the Pench River. If Governor Jabir surrenders the Kingdom of Kaseni, it is very likely that he will cross the Palacio to enter Kashgar to assist the Lion Khan with his powerful troops."

Yelu Dashi and Xiao Heda listened carefully, their brows frowned slightly, obviously with their own thoughts. The army of the Seljuk Turks in the Kingdom of Gassini was good news for Yelu Dashi. This means that he has more time to rectify the Saiye Water Basin.

According to the plan, his first step in expanding in Central Asia was to conquer the Sailye River Basin north of Stone City (Tashkent). With Stone City and Balashaguen as the center, he rebuilt Sailye Town. If possible, he had to conquer the Geluo people in the Qihe River Basin (Shaoye River is also one of the Qihe Rivers).

The Garlu tribes were important allies of the Karakhan Dynasty when it rose. After the Karakhan Dynasty rose, they gained the power to nomadic lands in the Seven Rivers, and all tribes enjoyed a high degree of autonomy.

If these tribes can be conquered, Yelu Dashi's rule in Suoye Town can be truly stable.

To conquer the Gelu tribes, it not only requires force, but also certain political, diplomatic and even religious means. After all, the Gelu people living in the Qihe River Basin were influenced by the Tianfang Sect for many years, and most tribes have converted.

In short, this is a matter of slow work and meticulous work. It will be difficult to achieve some results in a few years or even ten years.

Therefore, if Jabir and Hexi Town start a long-term battle for Shule Town (Kashgar) and the Kingdom of Gassin, it will definitely be good news for Yelu Dashi.

Xiao Heda had another idea at this moment. Jabir's army was strong, and the roads on the Pamirs were dangerous. If Jabir had a Pamirs to resist the Hexi army, he might have planned to enter the northwest Tianzhu.

There is no wealthy northwestern Tianzhu to plunder. Even if the Hexi army took down Shule and Yutian towns, they would eventually die of poverty!

The only way to successfully enter the Kasheni Kingdom (Afghanistan) through the Pamirs seems to be to make Jabir foolish himself and lead his Guram across the Pamirs into Kashgar to fight the Hexi army!

But will Jabir, who has been invincible for most of his life, be stupid?

It seems unlikely, right?

...

In the winter of the first year of Daguan in the Song Dynasty, Wu Haowen had not yet arrived in Cangzhou.

Because the Hailu Maritime Manufacturing Commander had not arrived yet, Wu Haogu temporarily held two positions. He and a few confidants discussed the current trend of the world in Xuanfusi Fort in the south of the Jiehe Shang City.

The so-called world is no longer a country in the Song Dynasty, but within the world!

"'The Khitans have made profits in the chaos, and they have sent troops to Yechuan'. You have read this document from Zhang Zhiping, the Great Education Regiment Corps. "Wu Haogu Gao sat in the main seat of the hall and took the document from Jiaohe City, Xizhou, the headquarters of the Anxi Great Education Regiment Corps. (just near Gaochang City, an abandoned ancient city), and took the first step in his hand. "These Khitans are really good at taking advantage of the opportunity. The Hexi army fought with the Lion Khan, so they took the opportunity to copy the Lion's nest. I wonder what you think?"

Wu Haogu has long been angry about Yelu Dashi's unauthorized actions because he knew he was so angry that he was useless!

He can control the sea affairs by continuously expanding the fleet, and the inland Central Asia... Haha, he was not interested at all. It was Zhao Ji who was very happy to be successful and dragged Wu Haogu and the Doctorate into the water.

Now Yelu Dashi, who is making a republic, has appeared. Wu Hao Ancient Capital wishes to have nothing to do with his expedition to Anxi.

Fortunately, he still has a few more reliable confidants who are in charge of the situation in the Great Education and Reform Group.

The document issued by the Anxi University Educational and Cultivation Corps today is actually reported by Wu Haogu’s confidant in the general military room of the University Educational and Cultivation Corps. Although Wu Haogu lost the position of Du Junior Commander, he still has a doctoral regiment in his hands! He still has a certain ability to control some officers from Jiehe Knight Academy.

Liu Xun (Ma Zheng, the general army general, was the front-line general army general, was also Zhao Zhongge's cousin. He was born in the Liu family in Shenzhou and was also the son of the villain of the four Yan families. Naturally, he was a person that Wu Haogu could control, and he was also a person with a hair-like heart.

After learning about Yelu Dashi's actions, he immediately adopted the standard operation of deceiving his subordinates and concealing his superiors. In the publicly reported documents, he concealed the truth, saying that the Khitans intervened in the war and raided the capital of Balashaguon, the Karakhan Dynasty.

At the same time, he also reported the real situation he had learned to Wu Haogu to know.

Wu Haogu continued to pretend to be confused at the meeting of the Xuanmai Mansion today. In fact, he had a superficial attitude and was the Khitans who seized Suiye Town, which had nothing to do with the Great Educational and Doctoral Group!

Murong Wangyou knew what Wu Haogu meant, so he was the first to echo: "It is a good thing for the Khitans to take profits in chaos. At least they will not form an alliance with the Tianfang Sect to deal with us."

This is impossible! The Liao Dynasty is in power, all Buddhist crazines, how could it be possible to join forces with the Buddha's enemies? This will fool ordinary people in the Song Dynasty court.

"What the old man said is very much. But will the Turks be involved in the war? The Dongkarakhans have finished it now. If the Turks do not intervene tomorrow spring, Lion Khan will have to abandon Shule and leave! I think the Turks don't want Lion Khan's troops to cross the Pamir Mountains and enter Kaseni?"

"What Xuan Zheng said is very much. However, the Hexi Army, Beiting Army and the Dajiao Regiment are quite strong, and they should not lose to the Turks who came from afar. What we really need to pay attention to now is the sea!"

Su Shi also came to participate in today's discussion. He didn't know very well what happened to Yechuan? But he knew that the Turks would not settle the accounts on the Liao Kingdom, just Zhao Ji's two emperors (Zhao Qianshun and Zhao Pijia) had defeated the Karakhanate to the brink of destruction! The Turkish Sultans never wanted to provoke Yelu Yanxi again, right?

In addition, like Ji Yi, he was a great diplomat who opened his eyes to see the world. So he knew very well that the real conflict between the Song Dynasty and the Turks was on the sea!

Those broken places in the Western Regions are all losing money. If you take them down, the map will look better and there will be no real benefits.

And the sea trade line is the real big profit! If the Song Dynasty navy took control of the Western Region, the Seljuk Turks and the Great Sericulture Kingdom would go bankrupt.

Just by the Song Dynasty's actions in the Three Buddhas Straits, the Turks should have become alert.

If Ji Yi takes any inappropriate measures after he arrives in the West, he is afraid that he will further deepen the vigilance of the Great Garrison and the Turks, and the competition at sea will become more and more intense.

"Then let's send some people to Nanxin Island before the Jiehe River is frozen!" Wu Haogu thought for a while, "The Sanfoqi Maritime Warehouse and the Sanfoqi Military Machinery Room should also be dispatched immediately.

The Maritime Bureau will hand it over to... Hua Manshan, are there any candidates for the military computer room?"
Chapter completed!
