Usurpation of Mongolia: My father-in-law is Genghis Khan

Chapter 135 Greek Fire, Khwarazm is about to perish under blood and fire!

Since Zaluddin Hasa surrendered to Zhao Shuo and planned to take action against Muhammad, Zhao Shuo no longer needed to stay in the Khorasan region.

He left behind 2,200 Flying Eagle Troops and selected one thousand households from each of the five ten thousand households in Khwarezm, for a total of more than 7,000 troops to guard the Khorasan region.

The remaining nearly 140,000 troops continued westward and entered the territory of the Hunzada Province.

This place has plains, grasslands, mountains, forests, rivers and waterfalls. Not only is agriculture and animal husbandry quite developed, but the scenery is also extremely beautiful. Later generations called it the "Iranian Paradise".

Today, this "Iranian paradise" is trembling under the iron hoof of Mongolia.

Under the onslaught of the 140,000-man army, most cities within the province of Hunzada surrendered. Some opened their gates and surrendered as soon as the Mongols arrived. Others were forced to surrender by the civilians within two days of the Mongols raising their white tents.

However, there were also some cities that relied on their strategic location and strong fortifications to resist beyond their capabilities.

After Zhao Shuo massacred twelve cities of various sizes, including Damuhan Fort and Ximo Niang City, he arrived at Lai City, the capital of the Hunzada Province.

The city of Ray was located near what would later become Tehran, and could be considered Tehran's predecessor. It had a population of 200,000 and a garrison of 20,000. Less than 200 miles west of Ray was the city of Kejiyun.

The defender of the city of Ray was Muhammad's cousin Mahmud Khan, who was loyal to Muhammad and refused to surrender.

Zhao Shuo ordered people to set up white tents outside the city according to previous rules in order to put psychological pressure on the soldiers and civilians in the city.

Just as Zhao Shuo's troops were besieging the city of Lai, the "Old Man in the Mountains" Zaldin Hasa was also taking action.

He pretended to please Muhammad and reached an agreement with him.

Muhammad asked Jalal al-Din Hasa to send the Assassins to assassinate Zhao Shuo.

Of course, Zaluddin Hasa disagreed. He said that Zhao Shuo was heavily guarded, and his assassins could not speak the same language as the Mongols and Han people, and their appearances were different, making it too difficult to kill him.

However, for the sake of the two provinces of Kejiyun and Huxada, he was still willing to stand on the side of Muhammad.

To this end, he would personally lead 20,000 elite soldiers to Kejiyun City to help Muhammad.

And they will bring a large amount of Greek fire to help Muhammad defend the city.

Originally, Muhammad was very angry when he heard that Jalal al-Din Hasa was only willing to send 20,000 troops.

He estimated that although the population of the Mulay Kingdom was only 400,000 to 500,000, as everyone was a soldier, it would be no problem for Zaluddin Hasa to raise an army of 50,000.

But if you think about it carefully, this is a good thing.

If the Mulayi Kingdom sent 50,000 troops, he wouldn't be so confident in letting them enter the city. 20,000 troops was a number that made him feel more at ease.

The Greek fire promised by Zaldin Hasa made him overjoyed.

Because Greek fire is so famous.

That is the world-famous weapon of the Byzantine Empire!
Not only could they be launched by trebuchets, but they could also be contained in huge cans and, using the siphon principle, eject mysterious and terrifying flames from a copper tube.

This kind of flame cannot be extinguished by water and can even burn in water. It is a powerful weapon in naval battles and city defenses.

Four hundred years ago, the Byzantine Empire, with the help of the Bulgarians, suppressed the attack of the Slavs with the help of Greek fire.

One hundred and fifty years ago, it was Greek fire that saved them from the attack of the Norman Robert Guiscard.

Sadly, fifteen years earlier, the Fourth Crusade, originally intended to attack the people of God, had found Byzantium, a fellow Christian nation, easier to attack. Although the Byzantine Empire defeated the Venetians with Greek fire during the Fourth Crusade, they were ultimately outnumbered and fell to the Crusaders.

The recipe for Greek fire naturally fell into the hands of the Crusaders.

Unexpectedly, the old man in the mountain also took advantage of the war in Byzantium to obtain the technology of Greek fire.

With Greek fire and the 20,000 elite troops brought by Zaldin Hasa, is there still a worry that we won’t be able to defend Kejiyun City?

Muhammad was very satisfied with Jalaluddin Hasa's help and immediately promised again that after repelling the Mongols, he would grant him the two provinces of Kejiyun and Huzada.

The alliance with the old man in the mountains, Jalaluddin Hasa, made Muhammad feel at ease.

He was very depressed because the messenger he sent to the Eagle's Nest had not received a reply.

Caliph Nasr in Baghdad directly rejected his request for military assistance.

This is not surprising.

Three years earlier, Muhammad had led a massive army toward Baghdad, intending to install Ala-Mulk as caliph in place of Nasr. Muhammad would have succeeded had it not been for a rare snowstorm. Nasr hated Muhammad to the core, and naturally, he would not have been easily persuaded.

But it didn't matter. Now that he had the 20,000 elite soldiers promised by the old man in the mountain, as well as a large amount of Greek fire, Muhammad felt that he was safe even without the reinforcements from the Caliph.

He even secretly made up his mind that after repelling the Mongols, he would turn around and deal with the Caliph of Baghdad and completely take Baghdad into his hands!

Five days later, the old man in the mountains, Zaldin Hasa, arrived at Kejiyun City with 20,000 soldiers and a large amount of Greek fire and launch devices.

Muhammad immediately arranged for Jalal al-Din Hasa to transport the Greek fire launchers to the city walls.

But Zaldin Hasa said that the Greek fire eruption device is complicated to operate and requires long training, so it must be operated entirely by his men.

Mahmud thought about it for a moment and agreed.

He actually wanted to take this opportunity to understand the production principles and usage of Greek fire.

But Zaldin Hasa had gone to great lengths to obtain the Greek fire formula and equipment, and obviously didn't want to give it away for free.

Muhammad is fine, as long as Jalaluddin Hasa is willing to help him defend Kejiyun City.

He gave full authority to arrange the Greek fire to Jalal al-Din Hasa.

Zal al-Din Hasa successfully deployed one-third of the 20,000 troops on the city wall and gained complete control of the Greek fire device.

Looking at the upgraded city wall defense line, Muhammad was so happy that he trembled again, thinking that he was very wise not to abandon the city and flee.

He even looked forward to Zhao Shuo's arrival, so he could launch a brilliant counterattack and show the world that he, the "Second Alexander" and "the shadow of the true God on earth," was not undeserved!
Just when Muhammad received the "help" of the old man in the mountains and was full of confidence to catch the Mongols off guard.

Zhao Shuo also set up a white tent outside Lai City for seven days.

Seeing that Laiyi City refused to surrender, Zhao Shuo directly ordered the 70,000 signed troops collected along the way to start attacking the city.

After a day of fierce fighting, more than 30,000 of the 70,000 signed troops were killed or wounded, and the resistance in the city gradually weakened.

On the second day, Zhao Shuo decisively deployed the Baru Camp and the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and in less than half a day, they captured the city of Laiyi.

Then, according to the old rules, they first drove out the people in the city and asked them to tear down the city walls of Layi.

In the end, only craftsmen, young women, and children who were no taller than the wheels of a wheel were left, and the rest of the population was slaughtered!
After another five days of rest, Zhao Shuo continued his march westward and surrounded Kejiyun City.

At this time, Zhao Shuo had 130,000 regular troops under his command, 11,000 soldiers from the Baru camp, and 40,000 signed troops.

Three days later, an army of 181,000 soldiers, more than 500,000 war horses, 8,000 carts, and countless Mongolian tents grew wildly outside the city like mushrooms after rain.

The city of Kejiyun was surrounded so tightly that even a needle couldn't penetrate it and water couldn't flow out.

"Raise the white tent!"

Zhao Shuo led his generals and five hundred black cavalrymen, circled around Kejiyun City, and issued orders to the messenger.

However, Jiyun City has no moat. It is said that the military and civilians in the city get water from underground canals.

However, there was a high mountain less than ten miles from Kejiyun City, making it very easy to obtain stone. Therefore, the walls of Kejiyun City were built with stones, which were much stronger than the walls of Samarkand made of rammed earth and mud bricks.

The city is eight miles in circumference and the walls are four feet high. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and more than two hundred thousand civilians inside. It is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack.

No wonder Muhammad regarded Kejiyun City as his last resort.

Then surround them and beat them slowly.

Anyway, Zhao Shuo is not in a hurry.

Now he has penetrated deep into Persia, and his troops are swift as clouds. He is less than 300 miles away from the Caucasus region, making him the fastest among the five Mongolian armies.

There was no news from Jochi at this time, and he probably hadn't yet reached the Caucasus. Ögedei and Chagatai, however, kept the news flowing smoothly. They had sent troops to Samarkand ten days ago, and they should have just laid siege to Yulongjiechi City.

Temujin was too lazy to move and would not send troops until a month later to sweep the cities along the Amu Darya River.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry at all and decided to surround Kejiyun City first.

The old man in the mountains, Zaldin Hasa, had already promised Zhao Shuo to take action against Kejiyun City, but no one knew how Zaldin Hasa would act.

Even if Kejiyun City cannot be conquered for a long time, Zhao Shuo does not need to be anxious. He just needs to slowly besiege the city.

Muhammad gathered 150,000 soldiers and horses in Kejiyun City, and there were more than 200,000 civilians in the city itself. The daily food consumption was astronomical.

All Zhao Shuo needs to do is to surround the city and sweep the surrounding areas. Sooner or later, the city will be filled with starving people and will collapse without a fight.

So, just copy everything.

Ten thousand densely packed white tents were soon set up under the walls of Lai City.

However, at this time, Mahmud was obviously in a good mood.

He was standing on the city wall with a group of nobles, including the mountain old man Zaldin Hasa, observing the movements of the Mongols.

"Hehara*Asib."

Muhammad looked at the famous Khwarezmian sage and asked, "What do you think of the enemy troops under the city?"

Hekhara Asibu said, "Since the Mongols invaded Khwarezm, they have massacred countless cities. They are undoubtedly a rare elite force. The enemy troops besieging the city now number nearly 200,000, and there are probably more than 100,000 genuine Mongols. They should not be underestimated. However..."

Today, the strength of the Eight Banners of the Han Army is no less than that of the grassland warriors.

Central Asians made no distinction between Han Chinese and steppe warriors, calling them all true Mongols. They also referred to the Eight Banners of Khwarezm and the signed troops as "Kharar." "Kharar," translated into Chinese, means slave soldiers.

"But what?" This was the "but" that Mahmud wanted to hear the most, so he asked aloud.

Hekhara Asib said, "But now, Khwarezm has Greek fire. Every time the Byzantine Empire used Greek fire, they were able to defeat the enemy with fewer troops. It was only fifteen years ago that the enemy was simply too numerous, and the city fell. Now, within Jiyun City, a full 180,000 troops have gathered, aided by Greek fire. How could the Mongols possibly gain an advantage?"

Mahmud looked at the other nobles and asked, "What do you think?"

"Almighty God bless the Sultan!"

"This time, we must let Mongolia see the power of Greek fire!"

"But Jiyun City will definitely make the Mongols suffer a bloody defeat!"

"I will die for the Sultan!"

"I wish to follow the Sultan and revive Khwarezm."

……

Those nobles were also full of confidence.

The Kingdom of Murat, which once made the entire Central and West Asia tremble, took the initiative to help Muhammad. Doesn't this show that the almighty God is blessing the Sultan of Khwarezm?
They had seen the power of Greek fire before.

That mysterious flame, which could not be extinguished even by water, was simply the devil's fire. Whether launched from a catapult or a copper pipe, it was extremely powerful.

Now, more than 120 devices that can spew Greek fire have been erected on the walls of Kejiyun City. How can the Mongols get away with it?
When the Mongols had been besieging the city for many days and suffered heavy losses, the nearly 200,000 troops in the city could attack and perhaps achieve a resounding victory.

And they will also become the ministers of the revival of Khwarezm and gain more territory.

It’s really the right decision to come to Jiyun City this time!
Muhammad was very pleased with the nobles' performance, but he was too embarrassed to boast about himself. Instead, he looked at the old man in the mountains, Jaldin Hasa, and said, "After all, it's all about Greek fire. It's very important to our Kejiyun City. If we achieve a great victory in Kejiyun this time, the Grand Evangelist can take the lead."

The Great Preacher is a respectful title for the old man in the mountains, Zaldin Hasa.

"Yes, the great preacher has made a great contribution!"

"With the help of the great preacher and Greek fire, why should Khwarezm worry about not being able to revive?"

"The Great Evangelist is the messenger of the true God, specially sent to help the Sultan. Zhao Shuo's so-called divine disaster is ineffective against the messenger of the true God, haha!"

……

All the nobles followed Muhammad's wishes and praised Jalaluddin Hasa.

"No, to defeat the evil Mongols, we must rely primarily on the protection of the Almighty God, the Sultan's blessing, and the loyalty of our soldiers. I am merely following the will of the True God; it is nothing."

When the voices of the nobles gradually died down, Jalal al-Din Hasa spoke humbly and praised Muhammad and the nobles.

In short, everyone was praising each other, but the atmosphere on the Jiyun city wall was full of joy, as if they were full of confidence in victory.

However, in fact, the old man in the mountain smiled at Mahmud on the surface, but was full of contempt for them in his heart.

What are you happy about?

Many Khwarezmian nobles, including Muhammad, were gifts he gave to his son-in-law.

Especially Muhammad,

I heard that when the prince consort was on the grassland, he was known as the Khan Terminator.

This time, Muhammad was sent before the prince consort, who was asked to chop off Muhammad's head. I believe the prince consort would be very happy.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, seven days have passed and the last grace period has passed.

The Mongols erected red tents.

Zhao Shuo stood on the platform, pointing the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow Sword forward, and said, "Begin. The Baru Camp will attack the east gate, and the Qian Army will attack the west, south, and north gates. Defeat Kejiyun City for me!"

"Yes!"

Wuxian and Machibie both agreed at the same time and went down to prepare.

After the Mongols captured the city of Lai, they also captured some small towns and villages. Now their army has reached 40,000 people.

Add to that the 11,000-man Baru Battalion, and the total is 51,000.

Fifty-one thousand people launched a general attack on Kejiyun City at the same time.

Boom boom boom!
The catapult roared, and twelve-pound stone bullets fell towards Kejiyun City. Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The three-bow crossbow fired a terrifying three-shot and three-sword arrow.

at the same time--

"Charge! Kill!"

"Break through Kejiyun, steal money and women!"

"Capture Muhammad alive, and wealth and glory will be within reach!"

"Kill Ke Jiyun!"

……

Fifty-one thousand soldiers, carrying ladders and pushing battering rams, attacked Ke Jiyun.

The Khwarezmians were not to be outdone.

The catapults roared and counterattacked the Mongolian army's catapults under the city wall.

The various heavy crossbows fixed on the city walls also showed their power, and the long arrows that could penetrate heavy armor were mercilessly reaping the lives of the soldiers.

However, it was impossible for the Qian Army and the Baru Camp to retreat.

By now, whether it is Machibieduwen against the Baru Camp or Wuxian against the Qian Army, they have accumulated enough experience and can use both kindness and force with ease.

For these 51,000 soldiers, there is only one possibility to continue to survive, and that is to capture Kejiyun City.

It didn't take long before more than thirty ladders approached the city wall.

"Hey, brothers from Ismain, it's all up to you to use your Greek fire!"

While the Khwarazmian soldiers were preparing rolling logs, stones, boiling water and oil, they looked around expectantly at the soldiers of the Mulay State who were operating the Greek fire launchers.

It must be pointed out that "Mulayi" is actually a derogatory term, meaning "lost person".

The Mulayi people call themselves "Yismain people".

These soldiers of Huarazmo had seen the launch of Greek fire many times in the past and were amazed by it.

It was this Greek fire that gave them enough confidence to defend the city.

Nowadays, of course, we can no longer call them "Mulayi", but instead call them "Yisimain".

They were extremely looking forward to the Greek fire burning the Mongols to charcoal, allowing them to vent their anger.

Muhammad was a thousand times more excited than the Khwarazmian soldiers. He was really holding it in too much.

Having a wife, daughter and everything else become enemies, not to mention "Alexander the Second" and "the shadow of the true God on earth", even an ordinary person cannot bear it.

Today is his chance to avenge his previous shame!

At this time, Muhammad and a group of nobles were standing on the city wall of Kejiyun, watching the battle.

"Master Evangelist, the rest is up to you. Don't worry, once we defeat the Mongols, I will not only grant you the provinces of Hudada and Kejiyun, but I will also grant you the province of Jibale."

Mahmud spoke to the old man in the mountain with great pride.

"Thank you for your generous gift, Sultan." Zaldin Hasa bowed in thanks.

The other nobles looked on with envy.

Jibale Province is just south of Kejiyun Province.

Its capital, Hamadan, was once the capital of the Median Empire and the summer capital of the ancient Persian Achaemenid Empire. It now has a population of 230,000 and is extremely wealthy, earning it the title of "City Made of Gold."

Who among these nobles doesn't want to swallow up the province of Jibale in one gulp?

Seeing the expressions of the nobles, Muhammad smiled and said to them, "Don't worry, everyone, those who are fighting against the Mongols with me today are the backbone of Khwarazm and the heroes of its revival. After we defeat the Mongols, everyone will be a hero of Khwarazm and will be awarded new fiefdoms!
"The Sultan is generous!"

Many nobles agreed in unison and were extremely excited.

The reason they supported Muhammad was because they thought Khwarezm could still be saved and Muhammad still had hope of rising again. Otherwise, they would have surrendered to the Mongols long ago.

Now that I have received Muhammad's promise, I feel like I have been given a shot of chicken blood.

These local tyrants issued orders to their soldiers, asking them to defend the city more diligently.

When the old man in the mountains, Zaldin Hasa, saw this scene, a hint of mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He secretly made a gesture to his confidant.

Suddenly, a signal unique to the Assassin organization was transmitted silently.

Slowly, the news spread from the old man in the mountains to the crowd of soldiers of the Mulayi Kingdom like ripples.

On the city wall, facing the Khwarezmian soldiers who were looking at them expectantly, the Murajid soldiers who were operating the Greek fire devices looked at each other.

Then, he suddenly changed the direction of the Greek fire device.

next second.

boom!
The raging flames, like countless fire dragons dancing wildly, suddenly burst into the city walls, illuminating the gloomy sky with a crimson glow.

"what!"

The Khwarezmian defenders on the city wall were caught off guard and were instantly burned into fireballs, screaming in agony.

at the same time--

The assassin, who had been quietly approaching the Khwarezmian officers, attacked them with the dagger in his hand like the fangs of the god of death, and cut their throats with one blow.

In an instant, on the walls of Kejiyun City, Khwarezmian officers were killed, soldiers were ambushed, and chaos broke out.

On the city wall, the light of blood and fire intertwined together, and the screams, shouts of killing, and the sound of weapons clashing filled the air.

What is rolling logs and rocks?
What about strong bows and crossbows, boiling water and hot oil?

The weapons that were supposed to unleash their might on the Mongol siege troops stopped firing altogether. The men on the walls were now desperately attacking the enemies around them.

This scene completely stunned everyone inside and outside the city.

"This...what on earth is going on?"

On the platform outside the city, Zhao Shuo, along with his trusted generals such as Hedaheibatu'er, Shi Tianni, and Zhang Rou, were watching the battle of the Qian army attacking the city.

Who would have known that in an instant, the towering Kejiyun city wall would suddenly become a gorgeous wall of fire as if it were on fire.

Hedaheibatuer was completely stunned and cried out in surprise.

Zhao Shuo was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He knew that this was probably the beginning of a rebellion planned by the old man in the mountains.

These flames are a bit like flamethrowers.

Zhao Shuo thought about it and roughly guessed what it was - Greek fire!

I didn’t expect that the old man in the mountains had such good things.

This guy has a lot of good stuff!
Come to think of it, the Assassins are a mysterious organization that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and during these hundreds of years, their "Eagle's Nest" has never been breached. They have inherited and absorbed a lot of technology and craftsmen from Central Asia, West Asia, the Mediterranean, and even Egypt.

Coupled with the omnipresent assassin organization, it was not difficult to steal some information about Greek fire from the chaotic Byzantium.

Zhao Shuo: "Eight banners of the Han army, five banners of Khwarezm, all move forward! Today, we will massacre Kejiyun City!"

"Yes!"

dong dong dong~~
The war drums boomed, and more than 53,000 Han soldiers of the Eight Banners and more than 43,000 Hualazimo soldiers, a total of 96,000 people, joined the battle.

Together with the 51,000 soldiers deployed previously, the total number of troops participating in the war was nearly 150,000.

If we add the 20,000 Mula people, the number would be nearly 170,000!
Nearly 170,000 troops launched a general attack on Jiyun City!

On the other side, at the east gate of Kejiyun, he saw that the Greek fire device on the city wall was actually aimed at the soldiers defending the city.

The smiles on Muhammad and the nobles of Khwarezm froze in an instant.

They looked in the direction of the old man Zaldin Hasa in the mountains in disbelief.

However, how could Zaluddin Hasa still be there at this time?

Just as the Mulayi Rebellion was about to begin, he had quietly retreated dozens of steps and arrived in front of a Greek fire device.

There were not only more than 40 elite Mulayi soldiers there, but they also controlled the stone steps leading down to the city wall.

In other words, whether the Khwarazm army under the city wall wanted to attack to rescue Muhammad, or Muhammad wanted to escape from the city wall, they had to get past him first.

The location of this Greek fire device was the result of careful planning by Zaleddin Hasa.

"Zaleddin Hasa, how dare you betray me!"

Mahmud instantly became furious, his whole body trembling with anger, and his face flushed red!
He had planned everything, but he never expected that Zaluddin Hasa would pretend to form an alliance but actually betray him!
Why!

He is the Sultan of Khwarezm, a citizen of the true God!

Why would Zaleddin Hasa help outsiders who are infidels?

At this moment, Muhammad felt completely dejected.

He knew he was doomed.

The Mongolian army of nearly 200,000 surrounded the city, and the Mulayi people rebelled on the spot, breaking Ke Jiyun's defense. Ke Jiyun was doomed to be defeated today!
However, Muhammad was unwilling to die after all.

"Kill! Follow me and kill them! As long as I'm alive, I will give you wealth and glory. Almighty God is my witness!"

Muhammad roared, drew his sword, and led the nobles and more than a hundred guards to attack Jalal al-Din Hasa and others.

"kill!"

Zaluddin Hasa also let out a loud roar and led the carefully selected elite Mulayi troops, relying on this Greek fire device, to fight with Muhammad and others.

At this time, on the city wall, the old man in the mountains’ subordinates were fighting fiercely with the soldiers defending the city.

Everywhere were charred corpses and bloody messes left by the flames.

However, the remaining Hualazimo soldiers still risked their lives and launched a fierce attack on them.

After all, everyone knew what the consequences would be after the Mongols broke into the city.

There was also a steady stream of Khwarezmian soldiers rushing from the city to provide support.

The soldiers of the Mulay State used Greek fire devices to firmly guard every stone step leading to the city, preventing the Khwarezmian army from climbing the city and preventing the Khwarezmian army from counterattacking on the city wall.

It was at this time that the soldiers also climbed up the city wall using ladders.

The Eight Banners of the Han Army and the Five Banners of the Khwarazm Army followed closely behind like a flood.

"kill!"

Qasim, a centurion of the Khwarezmian Red Banner, ordered the Mulayi soldiers to stop unleashing Greek fire. Then, with a loud roar, he raised his shield and caltrops and charged towards the stone steps fearlessly.

This time it was the Mulayi people who rebelled, allowing the Mongolian army to easily attack the walls of Kejiyun without any merit of being the first to reach the city.

However, Qasim can definitely strive for the credit of opening the city gate!
As long as he accumulates more prospects, he can be promoted to a thousand households and officially become a senior officer under Zhao Shuo. He must work hard for it.

He was going to kill his way down the stairs and open the gate.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Kasim had already learned a lot of fighting skills, and with his natural strength, he brandished the caltrops and attacked like a hungry tiger among a flock of sheep, killing several people in the blink of an eye.

A quarter of an hour later, he finally led nearly a hundred soldiers of the Zhenghong Banner under his command and successfully reached the city gate.

After another round of fighting, the city gate was opened.

"Brothers, rush!"

"But the fast cloud has broken!"

"Kill all the men, leaving only the women and craftsmen!"

"Capture Mahmud alive!"

……

With shouts, the Mongolian cavalry poured into Kejiyun City.

Zhao Shuo couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.

I didn't expect that Jiyun City would be broken so easily.

Let’s see where you, Mahmud, can run this time!

As long as Muhammad was captured, there would be no doubt that Zhao Shuo would be the first in the Mongolian army's battle against Khwarazm.

That territory in South Asia is definitely Zhao Shuo's!
Later, Mongolia only needed to take over the entire territory of Khwarazm like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and finally divide it up.

Zhao Shuo was in a good mood when he thought that he was about to obtain a new fiefdom.

Let Zhao He come here later to practice his skills. He can try to govern or attack India as a practice.

After taking care of India, we can then join forces with Batu to launch a westward expedition.
