The reason why Genghis Khan was able to pacify the world and conquer all the countries was precisely because he gathered a large number of loyal subjects and good generals. And Shu Chitai is the best of them. Since the birth of Genghis Khan, he has encountered countless dangers and almost died several times. And the most dangerous one was the sudden betrayal of his righteous father Wang Han.
In the spring of 1203, Wang Han sent his son Sangkun to launch the Battle of Hela-Heleti-Ereti. In terms of military talent, Sankun was not at all an opponent of Genghis Khan. But Genghis Khan was grateful for wang han's help to him, so he was defenseless and suffered an unprecedented fiasco. Most of the wives and concubines, family members, and subordinates were captured by Wang Han, and Genghis Khan had only 19 cronies left, which can be said to have returned to the pre-liberation period overnight.
In this battle, Genghis Khan would even be killed, and if it were not for the brave and fierce chitai who rushed to kill, the situation would eventually be worse. During the battle, Shu Chitai rushed left and right, defeating Sangkun's thousand guards, and then burst into the Chinese army, and an arrow hit Sangkun's cheek. Subsequently, Shu Chitai and 17 other riders took Genghis Khan out of the siege.
Genghis Khan and 19 others retreated all the way to the vicinity of Lake Baikal and rested near the BanjuNi River. It was a dry period, the river was very turbid, and Genghis Khan and others could only squeeze muddy water out of the sludge to quench their thirst. Genghis Khan had mixed feelings, and he swore to heaven with muddy waters:
"Whoever drinks this water with me, let it be of my use to the world!" Let me be the one who has attained great cause, and rejoice and suffer with all men. If you break your oath, it is like the water of the river! ”
Genghis Khan then regrouped and defeated Wang Han and Sangkun, and all of Ke liebu's men were captured, including Wang Han's brother Zahe Daren. Originally, Genghis Khan wanted to kill Zahe, who knew that he immediately sacrificed his two flower-like daughters, the eldest daughter Yibahe and the second daughter, Lu Hetiani. Genghis Khan himself laughed at Yibahe and married Lu hetiani to his fourth son, Tuolei.
Because of his status as a foreign relative, Zahe dared not take control of his old ministry. But soon after, Zahe dared not to rebel again. The result was another Akadai, and he devised a plan to capture him. He married Genghis Khan and was much loved by him. Because of his outstanding military achievements, Shu chitai also became genghis Khan's guard, often standing guard in front of his tooth tent.
One night, Genghis Khan was fortunate to be in Bahe and stayed in his tent that night. But that night, Genghis Khan was awakened by a nightmare in which he was being hunted down and killed by Sankun. When he was in a state of shock, Genghis Khan suddenly found Shu Chitai standing guard outside his door, and his beating heart immediately settled. Looking at the sleeping Yibahe by the pillow, Genghis Khan made up his mind.
At that time, Genghis Khan had unified Mongolia, and it was time to reward meritorious deeds, and Shuchitai had not yet been rewarded. The next day, Genghis Khan summoned Shu chitai and said in a serious tone:
"You helped me defeat Sangkun and drank the waters of the Hun River with me, which can be said to be the greatest achievement; then you defeated Zahe dare not plot and booby-trapped him, which is the second greatest achievement." Whenever you fight, you are not afraid of death, you are brave and unparalleled, and you have made great achievements. Looking at you, it's like the shadow of a mountain. With you there, I'm relieved. Therefore I have made you lord of 4,000 households, hereditary, and have given you my concubine Yibahe as my wife! ”
The meritorious deeds of Mongolia and the sealing of a thousand households are great rewards. As for Shu Chitai, Genghis Khan sealed a total of four thousand households. This shows how much Genghis Khan trusted Shuchitai. Even so, Genghis Khan still felt that the reward was not enough, and also married his wife Yiba to Shuchitai, which was an unprecedented grace.
After the marriage, Genghis Khan was afraid of Yibahe's dissatisfaction, so he said to her:
"It's not that I don't think you're beautiful, nor is it because you're not good-natured. The reason why I gave you to Shu ChiTai is because he has really done great deeds, and you must understand the great righteousness of it. When Shu Chitai fought, he protected me like a barrier, like a shield, and gathered the scattered people together. Such a great achievement will marry you to him. Henceforth, my children and grandchildren will remember his merits, and will not break my promises, let alone forget your status as a beggar! ”
In order to show his attention to Yibahe, Genghis Khan sent 200 slaves of the married couple as dowry, as well as two Mongolian celebrity chefs, Ashheim Timur and Al-Chihei.
Since then, the descendants of Shu chitai have indeed been treated favorably by the descendants of Genghis Khan. Shu Chitai's son was named Timid Tai, and his bravery was no less than that of his father. From Emperor Taizong's wokoutai and his ancestor Kublai Khan, the four dynasties of The Four Dynasties, the king of Deqing County, was rewarded with 20,000 households, and nine sons were rewarded. At the same time, Cowardly Tai also defeated the traitor Yi Jiatai for Wokoutai. Interestingly, Wokoutai married Yilahatai's wife to Titai. The Shu Chitai family has been blessed by the emperor for two consecutive generations, and I don't know whether it is joy or worry.
