The Ming people evacuated so simply, without any delay or hesitation. The rapid withdrawal plunged the Ottoman Empire into a huge power vacuum.

The Turks no longer have the power to rule the empire, and local forces have begun to rise, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to maximize the benefits for their tribes.

Some weak tribes either cling to the big tribes or form alliances to keep warm. All kinds of diplomacy, all kinds of darkness, deception, lies, and conspiracies are intensively staged on the corpse of this declining empire.

They are all competing for the power vacuum left by the Turks. If they want to compete, there must be wars. Wars of various sizes are constantly being staged between various forces, ranging from armed fights between a dozen people to the killing of thousands of people.

.

Suleiman II did not think about the rebellions in various places in the plains and restoring the glory of his empire. Kopurulu's army was completely destroyed, and Suleiman Krimmel's western officers were also wiped out.

He no longer has the ability to reunify the empire. Since he has no ability, he does not think about these things. Feeding the bellies of the people of Constantinople is the top priority now, otherwise Constantinople will be gone soon.

The sultan who acts like a mere commander will not live long!

The Ming army took away almost everything in Constantinople. In fact, Suleiman II did not have a grain of food in his hands.

There were people everywhere on the beach, picking up all the seafood washed up by the sea. Some people were so hungry that the mud on the oysters was swallowed by them before they were washed off. They couldn't wait to cook the seafood, which was half-cooked.

Eating it will only cause diarrhea.

If you are not strong enough, you may be swallowed by the rising tide.

A large wave of refugees began to appear, some heading east and some heading west. Although they also knew that their relatives in the eastern and western provinces were probably in bad luck, they still resolutely gave up their properties and ran away.

Constantinople simply couldn't survive.

Suleiman II sadly watched his subjects leave. He had no choice but to feed his subjects.

More and more people were leaving, and the old Ahmed almost breathed his last.

"Your Majesty the Sultan! There is only one last resort, otherwise all the people in Constantinople will be gone, and other forces will definitely come to rob us. By then, we will have no place to escape even if we want to."

"We have no money and no food. What else can we do!!" Suleiman II looked at his prime minister sadly. This old man had devoted his whole life for the Ottoman Empire and was about to die.

"There is another way, and that is the tombs of our ancestors. There are a large number of funerary objects in the tombs of the Ottoman sultans of the past. We only need to dig up the tombs to get these funerary objects.

Use these things in exchange for food, weapons and everything we need." Ahmed said his idea painfully.

"No! This is absolutely not possible. How can you have the idea of ​​​​the tomb of the sultans of the past dynasties? How do you let the subjects see me, and how will future generations see me." Suleiman II was so angry that he almost strangled the old bastard to death with his own hands.

, actually came up with such a bad idea.

"Your Majesty the Sultan! Only when you are alive can you be accused. Even if you are dead, you will not know about it. I know it is difficult for you to accept, but this is the only way now.

The Ming Dynasty took away everything from us. If we want the Turks to continue to survive, we can only take this step. If we hesitate any longer, all our people will be gone, and the Turks will disappear forever in the long river of history.

You don’t want to bear the reputation of the last king!” Ahmed expected that Suleiman II would look like this. He was breathing hard while trying to persuade Suleiman II. It was obvious that he was speaking.

Sometimes there is more air coming out and less air coming in.

"But...!" Suleiman II also knew that this was the last resort, but he still didn't want to do it.

"Your Majesty the Sultan, I, Ahmed, don't have much time left. Let me do this kind of thing. The Turks need a wise and courageous king. Your face will give you some money." Ahmed finished.

Regardless of whether Suleiman II agreed or not, he nodded to his two sons, who ran over and carried Ahmed away.

"Oh God! What mistake did we Turks make? Half a year ago we were a powerful empire, but only half a year later, it has been reduced to ashes."

God did not hear Suleiman II's accountability, so Suleiman II could only curse as if he were punishing the sky.

Ahmed was carried by his sons and took those who were still willing to follow him to the Valley of the Kings. All the Turkic kings of all generations were buried in this valley. No one remembers the original name. They only know that this place was called

Make it the Valley of the Kings.

The Tomb of the Sun King is different from other tombs. It is built purely with wood, and the material is precious Ottoman oak. This kind of tree is said to be immortal for a thousand years, dead for a thousand years and not falling, and fallen for a thousand years.

Among the trees, they are shade trees.

Not only does it have antiseptic properties, the most important thing is that this kind of wood can separate yin and yang, locking people's ghosts in the cemetery and never rebirth.

As long as it is the tomb of a Turkic king, someone will die. According to legend, those buried in the cemetery can live up to three years. Therefore, when entering the tomb of the Sun King, you must not only beware of ghosts, but also beware of ghosts.

Those living at the bottom of the tomb are more terrifying than wild beasts and venomous snakes, because they survive by eating dead people.

The people brought by Ahmed dug up countless dead people in the Valley of the Kings. Among them, the face of a female corpse was actually lifelike. She was wearing a luxurious fur robe and lying quietly in a coffin dug out of a whole section of oak wood, with a peaceful face.

No one among the common people appreciates the appearance of the dead. In their view, even if it is a fairy-like beauty, for them, it is just a matter of whether it is good to swallow or not.

What's more, she is a beauty who has been dead for who knows how many years, and has no value at all!

Ahmed looked at the trampled corpse sadly. She had escaped a hundred years of wind and frost, or even a thousand years of wind and frost, but she could not withstand the hungry descendants.

Why did the descendants of the wolf tribe end up like this?

My days are coming to an end, but what is the future for the Turks?

There seems to be a pair of big hands pushing everything in this world, from sunrise to sunset, from winter, summer and autumn to life and death, as if with destiny, going around like a circle, people are always unable to escape from this cruelty, they can only

spinning in this circle.

Ahmed was lying on the bed thinking about the future of the Turks, while another group of people in the valley in the distance were sweating profusely. Hunger gave them the greatest motivation. As the most destructive people in the world, they tore apart the tombs.

The wood is not difficult for them.

Countless people were dragging the rope, which had sharp iron hooks. As long as the iron hooks were hung on the wood, they would be roughly separated from the tomb. They did it very smoothly, and the waves were like continuous waves.

The tomb of the Sun King occupies the entire hillside. The dismantled oak wood has been piled as high as a mountain. Only two layers have been removed. According to the official responsible for the construction, there are at least five more layers of wood.

You will see the main tomb chamber.

Looking at the mountains of wood, Ahmed shook his head. The Sun King spent a huge sum of money on his tomb, but his descendants could only survive by digging out the treasures in his tomb.

No matter how strong the mausoleum is, it cannot withstand being demolished by a group of greedy people. The strong layout of the mausoleum can only delay the Sun King for two days.

In just two days, all the fruits in the nearby orchards were wiped out. People went to greet the mouse holes in the ground. Many voles were swallowed by hungry people without even peeling their skins. In people's throats

, you can also hear the last scream of the field mouse.

The tomb of the Sun King was finally opened, and there were many corpses in the tomb passage. A boy who had turned into a mummy was holding a pottery basin in his arms and cried very sadly before he died.

In addition to mummies, there are many rats in the tomb passage. Not a single rat has successfully escaped the pursuit of hungry people. The small rodents that were so disgusting in the past have broken bones and muscles in people's mouths and eaten them very deliciously.

The funerary objects were carried out one by one, and finally the Sun King was also carried out. The Turks lacked the necessary respect for their king, look at the piled up treasures. The civilians all had vicious expressions, bringing so many rare treasures with them.

Going underground is definitely a waste.

Ahmed's eyes began to brighten when he saw the grain merchants of the Ming Dynasty, and the sadness in his heart became more intense. The people of the Ming Dynasty finally used the hands of the Turks to destroy the tomb of the Turk king.

The bones of the Sun King have been thrown aside. No matter how powerful the emperor was in life, he was nothing more than a withered skeleton after death.

"Master Prime Minister, I didn't expect that the tomb of the Sun King actually contains so many treasures. You can let them continue digging. As long as there is enough money, food is not a problem." The grain merchant of the Ming Dynasty smiled and saluted Ahmed.

That's what this kind of person is like. If you don't have money, they will be even more vicious than the most ferocious jackals. If you have money, you are definitely qualified to pretend to be a boss in front of him.

The Turkic people watched helplessly as the treasure they had worked hard to dig for three days was taken away in a carriage by the smiling Ming people. They were very worried that the Ming people were not trustworthy, and many people came to ask Ahmed.

Ahmed could only tell everyone with a helpless smile that people in the Ottoman Empire were starving, and if they wanted to buy food, only the Ming Dynasty could.

The Ming Dynasty people transported the treasure to the port and loaded it on a large ship. There were people in military uniforms waiting on the ship, and no Turks dared to approach. The last rash guy was still lying in a pool of solidified blood.

Facts have proved that the credibility of the Ming people is still strong. If they say they will withdraw their troops, they will withdraw completely. If they say treasures can be exchanged for food, treasures can be exchanged for food.

A large amount of food was transported from the giant ship. Suleiman II's mouth was filled with food and his eyes were filled with tears. As a sultan, Suleiman II felt that he might as well die happily.

It's not easy to die, at least Ahmed thinks so.

"Your Majesty the Sultan! I have dug the Sun King's tomb and the tombs of several other sultans, and the food I have obtained can last until this time next year.

My King! The old Ahmed will finish his life, and the future of the Turks depends on you. You must lead the Turks to survive until a great king appears in our descendants who can lead our descendants.

The descendants will take revenge and return today's humiliation a hundred times to the people of Ming Dynasty.

My king! No matter what difficulties you encounter, you must persevere. I have finished going to hell. May the true God bless you and all Turkic people."

After Ahmed finished speaking, he closed his eyes in pain. Big, muddy tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

"Ahmed, you will go to heaven. You will not go to hell!" Ahmed exhaled his last breath as Suleiman II cried.

The body in his arms gradually became cold and stiff, but Suleiman II was still unwilling to let go. This was a truly wise man, a man who truly considered the future of the country.

Now that he is gone, he has no friends anymore.

The old Ahmed died, and Suleiman II could only survive this difficult period alone.

Fortunately, there is enough food, and people's hearts are gradually settling down. As long as we plant good crops this year, we will always have something to eat next year.

The most important thing now is to repair the megalithic city wall that was damaged during the war. Only when the megalithic city wall is repaired can Suleiman II have some sense of security.

Now the entire Ottoman Empire is in chaos. Those without strength can only survive by hiding behind the city walls and relying on the cover of strong and tall city walls. After all, not every country has such fierce artillery as the Ming Army.

The megalithic city wall was inherited from the Byzantine Empire. It took the entire Byzantine Empire thousands of years to build it. It was so severely damaged that it is not easy to repair it.

Just when Suleiman II was preparing to repair the megalithic city wall, the scouts sent him a piece of horrifying news.

"What? The Romanians are marching towards Constantinople!" Suleiman II's face turned pale. How could they fight against the Romanians with their current strength?

"Yes, Your Majesty the Sultan! The Romanian cavalry is advancing towards Constantinople. It may take two days or three or four days to reach the city."

"Ahmed...!" Suleiman II shouted out of habit, but this time he never heard the words: "Your Majesty the Sultan!"

"You...! Immediately gather all the men in the city and give them weapons. Also, build the damaged city wall overnight. If there are not enough stones, demolish the houses."

When the Ming people left, they did not disarm the Turks. Suleiman II knew that it was not that the Ming people had forgotten, but that they did not bother to disarm the Turks. For the Ming Dynasty, the swords in the hands of the Turks were

The armor on his body is not much different from a scrap of iron.

"Yes! Your Majesty the Sultan!" Some officials walked out. Since the payment of salaries was resumed, the officials became obedient again.
Chapter completed!
