Chapter 678 When the Eight Great Banners, the Sun and the Moon Red Appear!

In later history, the territory of the Hoshuot Khanate established by Gushi Khan was mainly in the Qinghai-Tibet region, western Sichuan, and some areas of Gansu.

Among them, Qinghai-Tibet region is the largest.

But in fact, Qinghai-Tibet needs to be divided into snowy areas and Qinghai areas.

Gushikhan first entered Qinghai and defeated Quetuhan's 30,000 troops in the famous "Battle of Blood Mountain" in Qinghai's history, and then occupied Qinghai.

He was resting in Qinghai for several years before he sent troops to seize the Xikang area first, and then attacked Shigatse, the ruling center of the Snow District, and joined forces with the Gelug Sect (the Yellow Sect of Tibetan Buddhism), and subverted the Kagyu Sect (White Sect) regime led by the Tibetan Pakhan.

He became the Gelug Sect’s Dharma Protector and then became the Khan in the Qinghai-Tibet region.

After defeating the army of Zangpakhan, Gushikhan knew very well that he was leading the Mongolian army and it was difficult to directly rule the snowy area, so he announced that he would devote all the taxes of 130,000 households in the Tibetan area to bring them to the present.

Gelugite temple costs.

When Gushikhan became the Khan Queen of Qinghai-Tibet, he led his troops to Shigatse, and asked his eldest son to lead troops to Lhasa, while the remaining eight sons were enfeoffed in Qinghai.

From this we can see that Qinghai is the foundation of Gushihan.

Therefore, in this Western War, he specially sent 3,000 elite soldiers of the Eight Banners to Qinghai.

Dangxiong Eight Banners had nothing to do with the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty. They were personal troops brought out by Gushikhan, and they were of great origin.

Although Dash was born to Gushikhan and Tibetan maids, he was Gushikhan's youngest son and was born with divine power. He was only seventeen years old this year and was quite brave and good at fighting.

Now, the Ming army is on the surface in the Haidong area (east of Qinghai) and relies on the Duntai Fortress to defend the enemy, but the Ming army enters Hainan and ambush the Khan's personal army.

Ombu's personal cavalry immediately ran back and forth, whipping and sniffing with a horse whip, which made the team of more than 5,000 people slowly stop.

Then contact other brothers to see if the war can be stopped.

The cavalry general trembled and said, "The Ming army is not a human, but a devil. No, it should be said to be a divine weapon.

Muskets are very rare, let alone cannons that can open up flower bullets.

After arriving in the snowy area, the army was divided into the Eight Banners (Eight Tribes) by Gushikhan, and was arranged to nomadicly beside the Dangxiong area, recuperate and absorb soldiers from the local residents, which was why the common name of the "Dangxiong Eight Banners" was obtained.

Their muskets are also very powerful. They can break our cowhide armor from a distance, and even iron armor cannot be stopped.

We were about to rush out, but we were attacked by their muskets.

After a while, just as the team was about to stop completely, the ground vibration became stronger and stronger.

Although Gushikhan saw the opportunity to intervene in the struggle between forces in the Qinghai-Tibet region, he was nominally used to provide assistance, and it is unknown what will happen in the future. It is impossible to take away most of the cavalry of the Hoshuo Special Army.

Now Gushi Khan has ruled the Qinghai area for ten years and the snowy area for six years. This elite soldier who has experienced the Battle of Blood Mountain has naturally recovered long ago.

As he said that, Ombu immediately called his subordinates to contact a nearby brother, Dashbatuur, the tenth son of Gushikhan.

He was worried that his unit would also be attacked by the Ming army, so he prepared to join Dash, who was most favored by Gushikhan and had the most cavalry under his command, just in case.

Therefore, it was estimated that there were only two or three thousand cavalrymen in the Heshuo Special Forces brought to the Qinghai-Tibet region at that time, and even fewer.

"No, this battle cannot be fought any longer, otherwise we would have lost even Qinghai if we attacked Ming."

"Stop moving forward!"

Gushi Khan's second son Ombu looked at the bloody and embarrassed cavalry general in front of him. After hearing what the Khan's personal army was destroyed, he couldn't come back to his senses for a moment.

We passed a river valley with a pretty good view, but we didn't see them, and we were knocked over by fierce artillery fire.

After having some thinking ability, he couldn't help but say, "How is it possible? You are all the elite cavalry who have experienced the Battle of Blood Mountain with King Khan. How could they be beaten by the Ming army to only four or five hundred people left?"

Although the Hoshuo Special Army was one of the leaders of the Oirat alliance at that time, its strength even surpassed the veteran overlord Junggar tribe, the elite cavalry (professional cavalry) could not provide too much, after all, the size was so large.

Speaking of which, Gushikhan has been away from the Oirat Alliance for more than ten years, and his troops are mostly dominated by the Mongols in Qinghai. He has not come into contact with Tsarist Russian invaders like Junggar's tribe. Therefore, 99% of the military's weapons are still cold weapons.

.

After hearing this, Ombu not only cursed: "Damn Eziertu, why don't you tell us that the Ming army's guns are so powerful?"

In order to deal with the crisis of the Kagyu sect's alliance with Quetu Khan, the Gelug sect contacted Gushi Khan and asked for help from the Oirat.

Halfway through the way, Ombu suddenly found that the scouts sent had not come back for a while.

At that time, Quetu Khan, who ruled Qinghai, came from Mongolian in the north of Mohai, so Gushi Khan was also dominated by Mongolian cavalry in the north of Mohai.

Those shells will explode, and one can kill several, or even a dozen people.

Soon, a mighty cavalry wearing a fiery red battle jacket appeared in Ombu's vision.

Thinking about these days, although the number of people stationed in the Ming army in Taichung was very small, it was extremely difficult to conquer them, which made them lose a lot of people, and Ombu felt a very bad feeling.

Seeing the big flag "The sun and the moon shine red all over the ground" again, Ombu suddenly became a little panicked.

After Gushikhan investigated the situation in the Qinghai-Tibet region, he gave up the Khanate of the Heshuote tribe to his nephew Eziertu, and he brought some of the Heshuote tribe elite cavalry into the Qinghai-Tibet region.

This immediately gave him a bad premonition.

Ombu shouted loudly, but the troops did not stop immediately. The order-implementation of the order is not something that most people are temporarily recruited by herders.

···

In a large tent of a yurt in Qinghai.

Under the attack of the Ming army, we had almost no power to fight back and could only break through in all directions. In the end, only four or five hundred people were left."

Although Ombu was not very capable, he also experienced the war between Gushikang, Quetu Khan, Xikang Tusi and Zangpakhan, and had some ideas about the war.

This army, which is recorded in historical books as 10,000 people, should have lost a lot after experiencing the Battle of Blood Mountain.

Gushikhan sent three thousand people to Qinghai as the main force to attack the Ming Dynasty from here. He probably unexpectedly, this personal army was defeated by the Ming army before it even left Qinghai.

If the tribe's direct elite cavalry is combined, it will be as high as 10,000.

So where did the 10,000 cavalry that he later defeated Quetuhan come from?

In fact, he instigated several nobles under Qinghai Quetuhan, and then increased some of his troops.

A day later, Ombu received a reply from Dash, expressing his willingness to join forces. So Ombu set out his camp and rushed towards the direction where Dash was located with more than 5,000 cavalry recruited.

The same is true for his men.

Some people couldn't help but exclaim-

"Caughter! They are the Ming cavalry!"

Second update.
