After besieging the palace of Bashi Sagon for half a month, Suleiman surrendered. He had no choice but to surrender. There was nothing edible in the entire palace. Hei Khan did not expect that Bashi Sagon would
It was breached in just one day.
As for the past half month, Di Qing led his troops to wipe out the Gulam heavy cavalry who tried to break out of the palace several times, and also dealt with a few black Khan dignitaries who wanted to escape with the help of a breakout.
The "Emir" of the Black Khan Dynasty, that is, the Prime Minister Sehma, was among the prisoners, and this old man was one of those extremely flattering people that even Raza despised.
Can such a person assist the king?
Can such a person be used as prime minister to manage the country well?
The answer is obvious!
Whenever he saw this hunchbacked Prime Minister, Ye An always thought of "Prime Minister Turtle".
Even though he was captured, he still wanted to be a guide for the Hexi army, claiming that his family was very influential in Black Khan and could even use his documents to deceive Hengluosi's city gate.
So Ye An changed hands and handed over this old guy to Raza.
It's not that a traitor cannot be used, but there is no need to use a traitor like this who even looks disgusting to himself. He is greedy for life and afraid of death, and has become a prisoner. He also plans to use the pitiful political methods in his head to gain benefits. This is
A complete egoist, whoever uses him is a fool.
When Suleiman surrendered, Ye An gave him the treatment he deserved as a king. In Ye An's eyes, except for the Liao Dynasty, the Song Dynasty and the empires in Central Asia, the rulers of any country should be counted as kings.
Not the emperor.
However, Suleiman's title was a bit special. He called himself "Peach Blossom Stone Bugra Khan", which means "King of Qin and the East". This title has a bit of a fake and powerful meaning.
This dynasty has always been connected with the Han family, so Ye An said when talking to Suleiman's chief scholar Balm: "After the Black Khan conquered Khotan, he sent the Uighur envoy Luo Siwen to pay tribute to our Song Dynasty, but it was a long way to go.
, it was inconvenient for the envoy to travel, Emperor Taizong just issued an edict, but since then Hei Khan has been sending envoys to the Song Dynasty continuously!"
Balm was very surprised by Ye An's understanding of these details. While admiring him, he asked: "Black Khan and your country have always been on good terms, so why did the general raise troops to attack my Black Khan? The sages of your country have said: Although the country is large,
Those who are warlike will perish!"
Good guy, he is indeed a great scholar who claims to know a lot about the Han family. He even knows the famous lines in "Sima Fa". It's a pity that he met Ye An.
"No, no, no, dear scholar of Balm, it was not I who raised troops to attack the Black Khan, but the Black Khan who took the initiative to initiate border provocations. The fault lies with Suleiman and not with me, and the fault lies with the ambition of the Black Khan and not with me in Hexi.
Oh, by the way, "Although the country is big, if it likes war, it will perish." There is another sentence below, "Although the world is peaceful, if it forgets to fight, it will be in danger."
I, Hexi, will not tolerate other people's provocations again and again. Of course, this land of yours was originally the location of my Han family's Anxi Protectorate. It's just that we declined and were occupied by you. In the final analysis, I am just the leader.
The army has regained the lost territory, and I believe that all the people of the Han family support this move."
Balm was speechless for a moment. He could only shake his head and sigh: "We have obeyed the glory of Allah. You cannot conquer the entire Black Khan. The resistance will only increase..."
"Wrong, in my opinion resistance will only become less and less.
Our rule in Hexi is principled. Although there is no absolute freedom in religion, as long as it is within the framework of our Hexi, no one will interfere with your beliefs.
It’s okay for you to worship regularly, it’s okay for you to follow your own teachings, and Hexi will respect your own eating habits.
But you must also respect us and don’t treat people with different beliefs or no beliefs as heretics. Isn’t it good for everyone to coexist peacefully?”
Ye An's words stunned Balm for a long time. He found that he could not dodge the elegant young man in front of him at all. Every word he said blocked the question he wanted to say.
And Ye An never looked at Suleiman from beginning to end. As a failed king, he did not persist to the end or even committed suicide. Such a person cannot be regarded as a true monarch.
"Balm, you are a true wise man who knows how to face the current situation, so I need you to assist Raza, the incoming Grand Protector of the Anxi Protectorate.
You will go to Liangzhou Prefecture to see the Chinese Wisdom Palace in Hexi, and you will also communicate with scholars in Hexi. Whether it is state management, cultural education, or philosophical thought, aren't these things better than those in the first half of your life?
How much more meaningful is it to serve a king exclusively?"
There was a hint of joy in Balm's expression, and he asked expectantly: "Can I also go to the Wisdom Palace in Hexi? Can I also communicate with those scholars in Hexi?"
Ye An opened his arms and said: "Of course, my army will not slaughter innocent people on the land of Black Khan, nor will it forcibly change your beliefs. The culture of the Han family is tolerant and advances with the times. I
Now I invite you to board the carriage heading to Hexi, are you willing?"
"I... of course would like to!"
After a brief struggle, Balm made the most correct choice. This scene also made Raza close his eyes in complete despair. He knew that Ye An was using an invisible and intangible method.
He changed the land of Heihan, but he was actually helpless in the face of his methods. The feeling of powerlessness and frustration from the bottom of his heart made him despair.
Ye An was not only trying to "win over" the scholars of Basi Shagun, but he also didn't intend to let go of the merchants and people in the city.
Policies to benefit the people were posted one after another in every corner of the city, and interpreters were preached to the people, telling them that in the future Bacishagun would become like Hexi, with specialized schools, education and medical care, and also
There will be welfare institutions specifically for orphans and the elderly.
And the interpreter is still preaching the benefits of being under the rule of Hexi. If this becomes the land of Anxi, then Hexi will send people to help them open factories and workshops, recruit more people to work, pay money, and make their lives better.
To be wealthy.
As for merchants, it is more affordable. Although there is no direct subsidy, merchants traveling between Hexi and Anxi can enjoy the convenience of the post station, and the tax will be reduced. As for merchants in Hexi, this is simply a waste for Heihan merchants who do business all year round.
Saved a huge amount of expense.
When the general public stood on the side of Hexi, the opposition in Basishagon City almost disappeared. Originally this was a multi-ethnic country, which was relatively loose.
The only shared religious belief was also dealt with very skillfully by Ye An. Next, it depends on Raza's management level. After spending so many days together, Ye An already has a preliminary understanding of Raza.
This fat man is not as stupid as he seems. On the contrary, he has extraordinary wisdom. Like most Western nobles, Raza received an elite education since childhood, and his knowledge and wisdom are worthy of his noble status.
Just because of his special status, he was not able to participate in the management of the Black Khan Dynasty, but Shule City was managed by the Kuha family. From the prosperity of Shule City, we can see the ability of Raza and the family behind him.
Of course, Shule City must also become a "model city" that surrenders to Anxi. Otherwise, as the Grand Protector of the Anxi Protectorate, the Kuha family as a vested interest will not be convincing, right?
