Years: 1218 - 1218
The caravan sent by Genghis Khan is robbed of its rich goods upon arrival in Otrar in accordance with orders by Shah Muhammed to Inalchik Kair-khan, the governor of the town.
He thinks spies are secreted in the caravan.
Genghis, trying to maintain diplomacy, sends an envoy of three men to the Shah, to give him a chance to disclaim all knowledge of the governor's actions and hand him over to the Mongols for punishment.
The shah executes the envoy (again, some sources claim one man was executed, some claim all three were), and then immediately has the Mongol merchant party (Muslim and Mongol alike) put to death.
