After 24 years of war, the king of Hotan, who believed in Buddhism, was forced to convert to Islam, but his two generals, joakturushi and nuketturushi, did not want to believe in Iraq The silanism, refusing to surrender, led hundreds of people to retreat to the mountain area of qiaha Township, built walls, dug trenches, installed copper pipes to divert water on the two mountain tops of aSAH and ASI, and built two defensive Castles (asaqiaoke turushikurgan built in aSAH and asiqiaoke turushikurgan built in ASI) according to the dangerous terrain. But soon the copper water pipe was discovered by the enemy, the water source was cut off, the men and horses were trapped, and they were unable to fight. They were forced to go up the Cele River, cross the Kunlun Mountains, and lose Tibet. From then on, the history of belief in Buddhism ended in Hotan.
