Chapter 855 Aftermath(1/2)
Compared with the fear of the Manchus, for Tsarist Russia, it was purely shocking.
You know, the existence of the three Oirat Mongols gave them a huge headache, and they directly attacked the city of Tomsk.
But now the Ming army actually mobilized tens of thousands of soldiers and horses and wiped out the Heshuote tribe and the Junggar tribe in one fell swoop. This is unbelievable no matter how you think about it.
However, when the Ming army forced Dulbert's tribe to surrender, Tsarist Russia was completely dissatisfied, and even had the audacity to make Dulbert's tribe obey.
He Shuoqi refused.
Good guy, the Dulbert tribe looks exactly the same as Akito, so it would be really disgusting to follow the devil-like appearance of Tsarist Russia.
Tsarist Russia had no choice but to support it.
A large amount of firearms and gunpowder were supplied to Dulbert's department, hoping to stop the Ming army.
Obviously, Tsarist Russia did not want to be neighbors with the Ming Dynasty at this time.
But Li Dingguo was not at all false and directly sent troops to sneak attack Dulbert's troops, catching them off guard.
You must know that in the Western Region, the night temperature at this time can be said to be freezing to death. You can't even hold a machete, let alone fight.
Of course, the biggest advantage of Heshuoqi is that the Ming army does not know the specific location of Dulbert's department.
It's a pity that he forgot that the Heshuo Special Department knew his location.
Going north along the Yenisei River, you can find the Dulbert tribe.
In fact, searching for Mongolian tribes along lakes or rivers is an unbreakable truth since ancient times.
Because people can endure without drinking water, but livestock and war horses cannot. If the war horses have no fighting ability, then there will be no fight.
After a sneak attack, He Shuoqi had to surrender.
On the way back, Li Dingguo was intercepted.
A group of Cossack cavalry, about two to three thousand men, holding muskets, stared at them with greed in their eyes.
Then, a Tsarist Russian with deep eyes and a big nose came out. He was riding a horse and wearing a tuxedo. He took off his hat and saluted with nobility:
"Hello, respected General Ming Dynasty."
At this time, the translation appeared.
"What's the matter?" Li Dingguo squinted his eyes and looked at this group of Tsarist Russians with unknown intentions, but he was thinking about whether he could eat them in one bite.
He glanced behind him and saw tens of thousands of captives dragging their families with them. They were really weak and it would be difficult to swallow up this army.
As for provocation, he didn't take it seriously at all.
Originally, this group of people did not know good from evil.
"General, Dulbert's department is originally affiliated with our Russian Empire. It is really out of style for you to sneak attack on them for no reason."
The man continued to speak gracefully.
"Russia?" Li Dingguo said disdainfully: "As far as I know, a few years ago, the Mongols attacked your Tomoks and captured thousands of people."
"What qualifications do you have to be their suzerain country?"
These words were so slap in the face that the man didn't even react for a moment.
"In any case, they have surrendered to the empire, you can't take them away——"
"Fart, if you continue to stop me, I don't mind making you all prisoners."
Li Dingguo said angrily: "Remember, it's everyone."
"With those matchlock guns in your hands, you are not worthy of talking to me at all."
With that said, at Li Dingguo's greeting, the cavalry showed their long spears and flintlock rifles.
"How is that possible? Why do you have a flintlock gun?"
The man was shocked.
He never expected that he would see advanced muskets from civilized areas in Central Asia.
Looking at the thousands of flintlock guns, the man flinched.
He didn't dare to gamble.
Even if this is a tragic victory, the castles in the entire Western Siberia region will lose their main force, and the immigrants will retreat for more than ten years.
Moreover, they may not be able to defeat it.
Reluctantly, this army composed of Cossacks was forced to leave.
Li Dingguo saw all this and felt annoyed: the Rakshasa people are too presumptuous.
However, he was wary. It seemed that the biggest threat to the imperial court in the northwest region was no longer the Oirat Mongols, but these Tsarist Russians.
Only they can organize thousands of cavalry, and all of them have muskets.
Even a matchlock gun is a headache.
You must know that the three Oirats combined total less than 500 pieces.
At this time, he made up his mind that he would definitely teach these Rakshasa people a lesson in the future and kill their vigor, thereby stabilizing the rule of the imperial court.
After he returned to Ili, the entire northwest was shocked.
The remnants of the Oirat Mongols and Dulbert's tribe were also captured.
The rest of the Huite tribe naturally had to submit.
Li Dingguo placed his current garrison in the Ili Valley.
Because this is where the Khan tribe of the Junggar tribe is located, and the water and grass are luxuriant.
It must be noted that the Junggar tribe is the most adept at business among the Oirat Mongolia. Farming and handicrafts have begun to take shape, making it suitable for settlement.
This is also the reason why the Junggar tribe unified Oirat Mongolia. After all, the economic base determines the superstructure.
However, Li Dingguo's influence after unifying the Western Regions continued to spread.
The Kazakh Khanate and the Uzbek Khanate both sent envoys to pay homage to the Ming Dynasty, demanding tribute from the Ming Dynasty and becoming vassal states.
Li Dingguo felt troubled for a while.
Frankly speaking, he is only suitable for commanding the army. He is not sure about diplomatic matters, and he does not dare to make decisions without authorization and go beyond the rules.
However, the staff explained to him: "These two countries have been bullied by the Junggar tribe, and recently they have been threatened by the Rakshasa Kingdom, so they have to surrender to our Ming Dynasty and obtain asylum——"
"Oh?" Li Dingguo smiled and said, "I guess it's not a big country anymore."
"Dong Weng, don't underestimate these two countries." The staff member said quickly: "Everyone in the imperial court is so excited about great achievements and wants to achieve great achievements that will reach far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties."
"Now that two more vassal states have been added, the imperial court should be happy. All you have to do is send the envoys from the two countries to the capital, and the imperial court will remember your contribution..."
…
In the Forbidden City, Zhu Yixi may have completed a task, and her whole body relaxed.
At this time, he came to the place where the prince was studying. Hearing the loud sound of reading, he suddenly felt relaxed and happy.
At this time, it seemed that he saw the emperor's chariot, and the teacher turned sideways and saluted.
"Let's stop here today!"
Zhu Yixi smiled and said: "I have something to do today, so I asked the children to follow me."
At this time, a group of little guys came one after another and circled around the emperor.
The older princes, led by Qin King Zhu Cunmei and Prince Zhu Cunqu, were a little more restrained.
Some of the young ones who had just become enlightened cheered and jumped for joy.
I am happier than anything else if I don't have to go to class.
Zhu Yixi held their hands and came to the imperial study room.
Here, there is a huge map hanging on the screen, which is extremely conspicuous.
This is an object used by the emperor to describe people through pictures.
The princes walked around in circles, marveling inexplicably, and then touched it with their hands curiously, and Zhu Yixi did not stop him.
After a while, Zhu Yixi brought a long stick, pointed at Beijing and said: "This is the capital, where we live."
"Father, why are you so small? How can we live here?"
The young sixth prince said innocently.
"This is just a reduced map." Zhu Yixi took the trouble to explain: "Just like you usually paint, you can't draw a mountain, so you have to follow the size of a mountain, right?"
Then, Zhu Yixi pointed to the northwest region, where the words Oirat Mongolia were extremely conspicuous.
"Weitla people, this is the transliteration of Mongolian, which means people in the woods in Mongolian.
In the pre-Ming Dynasty, it was called Wala, which was tied with the Tatars in Mongolia. It is also a transliteration. If you pronounce it with an accent, it is actually the same. Which one of you pronounces this word as 'thorn'? That one is 'la'.'
pull'.
Speaking of Wala, you should know that the Tumu Fort incident was done by the Wala people..."
