The heavens begin with the Dharma of absorbing power

"The chief leader is indeed a smart man, let's continue chatting!"

Xu Xin did not let go of the nominal leader of the Persian Ming Cult as he spoke, but relaxed his grip slightly. He moved the chief leader away from his position and sat on it himself. Needless to say, this guy feels really good.

"Master Xu of the Middle Earth Ming Cult, what are you going to talk about!"

The chief leader had a tendency to be uncooperative, mainly because Xu Xin and her were too close. They both sat in the same seat, so how could they not be so close to each other?

This woman, who was about the same age as Dai Qisi, had a desire for that kind of thing, but because of her identity, she had to remain chaste and be careful when interacting with men. This was the first time that something like this had happened.

Xu Xin naturally saw the embarrassment of the chief leader, but he had no intention of showing off his grace. Next, he was going to have a good talk with the Persian Mingjiao people, in order to take more initiative, and there was nothing wrong with being thick-skinned.

"Chief Master, the current situation of the Persian Mingjiao is quite bad. You are willing to surrender to the Mongols, but the Mongols believe in the Sudan. You know better than me how cruel the sectarian war is. The Persian Mingjiao can still exist now, you guys We should thank the Mingjiao of China..."

Xu Xin was outputting words while Dai Qisi was translating, explaining that the Persian Mingjiao should now rely more on the Middle-earth Mingjiao.

This is not because he is arrogant, but it is the reality. Persia is currently in turmoil, with powerful factions and sectarian disputes. The Persian Mingjiao does not have much support from the nobles in this land, and its development is not smooth. It is already in a very weak state.

After the division of the Mongol Empire, the land of Persia was assigned to the Ilkhanate, one of the four great khanates. This was also the shortest existing khanate among the four great khanates.

Since its establishment, the Ilkhanate has been in constant friction with surrounding countries. It can be said that it has been fighting for years, which has led to its domestic economy being unstable.

About fifty years ago, there was a period of reform and resurgence during the period of Ghazan, the seventh generation Khan of the Ilkhanate. In order to gain the support of local feudal lords and Muslims, Ghazan chose the Dashi Cult as the state religion of the Ilkhanate and changed its name to Mahemu and Sudan.

After this reform, the Dashi Cult became the number one religion in the Ilkhanate, and other sects including Persian Ming Cult and Zoroastrian Cult were continuously suppressed.

However, this kind of reform of the Ilkhanate did not save its national power, but instead laid the foundation for its demise.

Thirty or forty years later, probably about fourteen years ago, the last powerful Khan of the Ilkhanate, Busayin, passed away. The Khanate quickly fell apart. Powerful ministers and generals supported each other because of their interests and beliefs. Puppet Khan.

In the past ten years, the Ilkhanate has been divided into five separatist regimes: the Khaltid dynasty in Eastern Persia and Afghanistan, the Muzaffar dynasty in Western Persia, the Zarayier dynasty of the Mongols, and the Chu dynasty in Asia Minor. State dynasties attack and kill each other.

In addition to these local forces that are separatist for interests and beliefs, the Golden Horde and Chagatai Khanate, which borders the Ilkhanate, are also eyeing the land of the Ilkhanate. This once prominent country in West Asia is now suffering from internal and external troubles. .

Xu Xin did his homework before coming here. Hearing that this was the case here, he naturally became interested.

Although the sun is setting in the Yuan Dynasty now, after all, all problems have not been completely detonated. It is still relatively difficult for the rebellion to succeed.

Xu Xin's accumulated industry and power are no longer weak, but he just lacks a group of talents to conquer the world. This requires blood and fire to temper. If he directly raises troops to cause trouble in the Yuan Dynasty, he will easily become a pioneer of the king. Then what to do? Of course, the pattern is enlarged a bit.

There is more to the world than just the Central Plains. With the establishment of the Mongol Empire, communication between the Central Plains and the West has become easier than before, so we should take a longer-term view.

The monster room in East Asia is not easy to cause trouble. The west side is not just casual. Moreover, the land of Persia is now divided by heroes and wars are incessant. There are also local snake forces like the Persian Mingjiao to contact. It is such a good trial land. It would be a pity not to rebel. .

This time he brought a large number of people, and several caravans came to Persia in batches. Among them were many old Zhou troops who were recruited by him. For example, Chang Yuchun came with him.

There are also some others. He went to various places to recruit talents to conquer according to the historical list, such as Xu Da, Zhang Dingbian, etc. It is said that when he asked the Beggar Clan to find people, he discovered that Zhang Dingbian was actually a disciple of the Beggar Clan, similar to Qian Yuana Zhong, the local powerful of the Jingyi sect of the Beggar Clan.

Most of these talents are still young and lack of training, but they have the talent to become commanders and good generals. If they are placed in this chaotic place in the west, they should be able to hone them quickly.

"Chief Leader, you also want the Persian Mingjiao to spread widely, right? The current leader of the Khanate is ignorant and powerful officials are messing up the government. As long as we seize power, we can continue to support that puppet and let him change our Mingjiao as the state religion. Until then..."

Xu Xin continued to speak out his words until the end, and tried to lure them to their advantage. In the end, both the chief leader and the Twelve Treasure Tree King were "persuaded" by Xu Xin, and the loyal followers and protective warriors of the Persian Ming Cult were quickly summoned to the Holy Land.

Xu Xin has always believed that rebellion is about timing and moving quickly. Sometimes the more elaborate the plan, the easier it is to leak out. Then when the plan is implemented, various situations arise and it eventually collapses. This was the case with the Yellow Turban Uprising in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The Yellow Turban Uprising has been prepared for many years. The original plan was to work together internally and externally to capture Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The capital was destroyed, the central government collapsed, and the local area was naturally in chaos. If we sent troops to eliminate them one by one, the difficulty would be much easier.

This strategic plan was perfect in imagination, but Zhang Jiao did not succeed. Later Huang Chao succeeded, but he failed to destroy the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop. Therefore, this "decapitation" strategy has flaws. To be more precise, There is no possibility of success in the Central Plains.

But in some small countries, such as the Ilkhanate, which has actually collapsed and split, this "decapitation" tactic is of great use.

Over there in the East Asian Monster Room, there are too many local cities, and since "Princes, Generals, Xiang Ning, etc. have their own kind" and "The emperor has strong soldiers and horses, he can do it for himself", there are countless local ambitions, even if you capture the capital, you can't do it. It is difficult to occupy the great righteousness and then destroy the place.

But in Persia to the west, there are not many cities, and it is not very difficult to attack. As long as the capital is captured, the rule of one of the separatist forces will be unstable, and it will not be too difficult to capture the entire territory by then.

"Yuchun, teach them well. Let these people know what fighting means!"

Xu Xin handed over the power to train the army to Chang Yuchun, and let King Wisdom, a smart man, act as a supervisor and translator. Then the chief leader and the Baoshu kings acted according to their plans.

Three days later, the chief leader of the Persian Ming Cult traveled in person to the ancient city of Taoli Temple, the capital of the Ilkhanate, to meet with the nominal fifteenth great khan of the Ilkhanate, the young Nush'er Wanhan.
