Chapter 276 Fa Yuan (May 4th) PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds
Burihatu already knew about the disastrous defeat outside Guihua City that night. Compared with the heavy losses of thousands of troops, what worried Burihatu even more was that the Great Khan himself was injured.
Buyan Huang Taiji has a deep affection for his father, the Great Khan. After learning that his father Khan was injured, the Mongolian Huang Taiji, who was already over 40 years old, almost shed tears.
His eyes were red and bloodshot, and he was breathing heavily in his nostrils. He suddenly turned his head and asked Burihatu: "I want to avenge this great revenge. Can the ruler give me some clever tips?"
Burihatu sighed with emotion and was silent for a moment before slowly asking: "May I ask Huang Taiji, who do you want to take revenge on?"
Buyan Huang Taiji was startled for a moment, frowned and said, "Of course it's Qi Jiguang."
"If it were just Qi Jiguang, it would not be difficult to avenge him. It just depends on whether Huang Taiji wants to avenge himself or his family. If he wants to avenge his family, he has four sons alive, and he only needs to spend some money to recruit Beitou dead men (
Han people who fled Mongolia (such as the White Lotus Cults mentioned in Volume 1) have a high chance of success by sending them south. If you want to avenge him personally, you may have to spend more money, but as long as you can make good use of the internal party strife in the Ming Dynasty,
, there is also a chance.”
When Buyan Hatu said this, before Buyan Huang Taiji could question, he asked: "But, does Huang Taiji think Qi Jiguang is really your enemy?"
The words were very clear, and Buyan Huang Taiji also reacted. Hearing this, he frowned deeply and asked: "So... the ruling is saying that this enemy is highly pragmatic?"
"Gao Rixin, he may be counted, but he may not be the culprit." Burihatu's calm tone had a hint of coldness: "I thought that Huang Taiji's enemy should at least be the Emperor of the Zhu family, or even
You might as well broaden your horizons - the entire Ming Dynasty is your enemy."
Buyan Huang Taiji stiffened his neck: "Yes, the ruling is right, the entire Ming Dynasty is our enemy!" But he paused, then frowned and said: "But this is too broad, what should I do now?
How to take revenge?"
Buyan Hatu looked at Buyan Huang Taiji's red eyes and said: "Huang Taiji, do you want revenge now or just to vent your bad anger?"
Buyan Huang Taiji was a little displeased and asked, "What do you mean by being in power?"
"It is normal for people to want to vent their anger when they are angry. However, if you want to dominate the world, you need to abandon these temporary angers and decide your actions from a longer-term perspective."
Burihatu breathed out a breath and said: "After today's two battles, Mongolia has reached its most dangerous moment since Genghis Khan. Instead of thinking about how to vent bad anger, I am afraid it is more important to consider how to deal with the current crisis, so that we and others are still in danger.
There is a place to stand and there is still a chance for resurgence.”
After he said this, Buyan Huangtaiji remembered that the current situation was indeed extremely dangerous. A large group of cavalry might be chasing behind him at any time. If the Khan in front was defeated outside Guihua City, the Imperial Guards of the Ming Army would definitely be ready, and it might even happen.
In pursuit of the Great Khan.
At the same time, the Great Khan knows the location of our army and will probably move closer to our army. This means that even if our army joins forces, it may face the unfavorable situation of being attacked from both sides. If we think more seriously, we have not arrived at Lightning Lake during the day.
Will Ma Chengen's troops on the battlefield also block the opening to the north?
If this is the case, then I am afraid that our main Mongolian force will be in trouble soon: to the west is Qi Jiguang, to the north is Ma Chengen, to the east is Li Rusong, and to the south... that is the Great Wall, and it is a Great Wall with a large number of hollow enemy towers.
I am afraid that everything in the southeast, northwest and northwest will be dead ends. So where will Mongolia go? The golden cicada's method of escaping its shell has been used once before, and that time it mainly relied on the large area of circulation. At that time, although the Ming army had a large number of troops, the army on each road had to cover a radius of two thousand taels.
Blocking a group of Mongolians on horseback within the range, this is naturally an opportunity to take advantage of them.
But that's not the case now. If Ma Chengen fills his position quickly enough, the size of the net this time will be no more than about 30% of the previous time. It will be difficult to escape.
Sure enough, Buyan Huang Taiji regained his senses immediately, hiding the anger in his eyes, nodded and said solemnly: "It is the one who rules and admonishes me, but I am reckless."
Seeing him like this, Burihatu couldn't help but feel very pleased. He smiled and said, "I don't dare. Since Huang Taiji is already alert, let's discuss how to deal with it next."
Buyan Huang Taiji shook his head and declined, saying: "To be honest with the governor, my mind is still very confused. I'd better ask the governor to come up with an idea first."
"I still stick to my previous point of view, the Thirty-Six Strategy is the best strategy." However, his words are not the key, just the entry point.
After saying this, Burihatu said sternly: "Since the rise of Gao Xuan in the fourth year of Longqing's reign, he has put down his inner strength to study and opened up the sea for trade. The Ming Dynasty has become increasingly prosperous and powerful, and it can no longer be controlled by manpower. Gao Rixin is more powerful than his uncle.
A man of high school, Xuan, became famous just as young as he was young. He entered officialdom earlier than he was crowned, and the career he achieved was doubled. It was not just due to timing, but also due to man's plan.
Now the Ming Dynasty has millions of people, relying on the power of guns and artillery. Once they attack with all their strength, they can't compete with them. The Ming Emperor Zhu Yijun was a young man studying politics, and he was assisted by many sages.
Sun Wu, this is even more untenable.
I have observed what I answered in the past, and I have found out that in recent days, all of them have been engaged in the Western Expedition, and they have all been victorious. I have secretly thought about the Western Expedition, which really demonstrated the great righteousness of the West and the power of the military in the old land. However, how can all the merits and virtues in this be returned to the subordinates?
Not the Great Khan? Also remember that the prosperity of Mongolia in the past did not originate from the excavation of gold, but actually started from the Western Expedition.
The year before last, I went to Ningxia and the Big and Little Songshan Mountains, and I learned that the Oara had already been divided into several parts. The Heshuote, Junggar, Turgut, Durbot, and Tilyangguti tribes were fighting against each other.
Khan went west to support him?
As for its south, Beelse Bali (also known as Yilibali, that is, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate) is the country of the descendants of Chagatai Khan, and it is also Mongolia. Beelse Bali has been in turmoil for many years, and was divided into two parts on several occasions.
Twenty years ago, they were united by Abdul Halim, and they had great luck. However, a few months ago, I learned that Abdul Halim had died, and his younger brother, Mahima Sutan, had not succeeded to the throne for a long time.
If you are willing to accept it, it will also be a good opportunity for Mongolia to regain its old territory.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! I think carefully, although the tribes of Wala are divided, but if I were to have a fierce dragon cross the river, it is difficult to guarantee that the tribes will be forced to unite. In this case, it will be difficult to win quickly and it will be disadvantageous.
The Great Khan Jiu Mu. I believe that the eight miles apart can be said to be the foundation of a country.
This land of eight miles away was the Western Region of the Southern Dynasties, and it was the route that the Silk Road of the Han and Tang dynasties must pass through, and it is the same today. If we occupy it, if we compete with the Ming Dynasty, we can cut off its trade routes, and if we make peace with the Ming Dynasty, we can profit from it.
If you advance sincerely, you can attack; if you retreat, you can defend.
People at that time said that there are three mountains sandwiched between two basins, the Altai in the north, the Kunlun Mountains in the south, and the Tianshan Mountains in the middle. The south of the Tianshan Mountains is called Tarim, with thousands of miles of yellow sand as a screen, without worrying about the dangers of Qiang and Tibetan people; the north of the Tianshan Mountains is Junggar.
The land can be used for both grazing and farming, so it is truly a treasure land. To the east of the Tianshan Mountains is Turpan, which is not only for farming and grazing, but also for sericulture. It can be called a gift from heaven, so why not take it?"
Buyan Huangtaiji was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, and asked in shock: "Does the ruling mean that we, Mongolia, should abandon Monan and go to the Western Regions, with the aim of not losing eight miles, and then unify Oara?"
"That's right." Burihatu said solemnly: "Given the current situation in Mongolia, it is difficult to gain a foothold in the southern and northern deserts. The only way is to risk death and survive, to occupy Besropali and unify Oara, and stand side by side with the Ming Dynasty from east to west.
For a way out.”
Although Buyan Huang Taiji was still shocked, after thinking about it, he thought of another aspect, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Has the ruling...Have the ruler mentioned these words to the Great Khan?"
He asked hesitantly, but Burihatu answered calmly, nodding his head and saying: "Since the golden cicada escaped from its shell in Chahanhot, I have already offered advice to the Great Khan. This is the duty of a minister. Please understand Huang Taiji.
"
"It is natural for the government to speak harshly. I won't have any dissatisfaction - if I were the Great Khan, the government would not hide it from me, right?" Buyan Huang Taiji asked.
Mongolians don't have as many taboos about speaking as the Han people do. Just because the father is still a living Khan, his son will never dare to say something like "if I were the Khan." On the contrary, Mongolians are very strict in this regard.
He has a bit of the European and American "confidence" of later generations. When he has the right to inherit, he does not hesitate to show this right. Others, including the Great Khan himself, will not think this is overstepping.
So Burihatu replied naturally: "That's natural. If Huang Taiji is already a profuse sweater, I will naturally advise Huang Taiji first if I have any ideas."
But when he said this, Buyan Huang Taiji was silent for a moment, and then sighed with emotion and said: "The messenger said that the Great Khan was hit by a Ming army blunderbuss in the right chest, but our army came in a hurry and there were not enough medicinal materials in the army. The army doctors did not care.
I didn't dare to take out the projectile, so I had to bandage it in a hurry to stop the bleeding. I'm afraid...I'm afraid that if something unexpected happens to Dahan at this time, it will definitely cause turmoil in the morale of the army."
Burihatu was also worried about this, so he revealed all the core secrets that he had hidden from Buyan Huang Taiji. Now Buyan Huang Taiji must have figured this out and became even more worried about Tumen Khan.
"The Han people say that Ji people have their own destiny. Dahan... it will be fine." Burihatu comforted him, but in fact he had no confidence at all. He simply changed the topic and said: "But no matter what, Huang Taiji will be fine."
Never lose confidence. Ever since the Great Khan ordered me to take charge of the Nine White Banners for Huang Taiji, I have actually been prepared for such an unexpected event.
Now that the accident has indeed happened, we should not dwell on it, but should examine the current situation and make the most accurate judgment in time. We must not lose our courage and give up the glory of the Golden Family and be willing to be a stepping stone for the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty.
.”
"What you said makes sense, so what should we do now?" Buyan Huang Taiji asked.
"The first step is to retreat with all our strength, contact the Great Khan as soon as possible, and determine the extent of the Great Khan's injury." Burihatu replied, and then added: "But then, no matter whether the Great Khan's injury is minor or serious, the injury will
Whether the situation is good or bad, we must jump out of the encirclement as soon as possible and head west immediately."
"How to get out of the encirclement?" Buyan Huang Taiji asked.
However, Burihatu shook his head and said: "The enemy's situation is unclear now, and it is difficult for me to judge. This will have to wait until we meet with the Great Khan before we can decide."
Buyan Huang Taiji thought so and stopped asking. Instead, he thought for a moment and then asked: "The ruling party just said that they could unify twenty years ago. Who is dead now? Is there any story in this?"
Burihatu had no choice but to briefly tell Buyan Huangtaiji about the history of Beselbali. Beselbali was often called the Chagatai Khanate in later generations. It was the Chagatai Khan who was supported by the nobles of the Mongolian Dugrat tribe in 1347.
It was built by later generations. It was first governed by Aksu, and soon moved to Alimari. Later, it was ruled by the Yalkan areas.
During the reign of Tuhelu Timur Khan, Alimari was the capital of the country. At that time, the country was very powerful and ruled the Eastern and Western Chagatai Khanate, which unified the northern and southern territories.
Hamaddin of Dugrat killed Yelias and Zhuo and usurped the throne. The Khanate was in chaos and fell apart. With the support of Hudada of the Bolash family, Heder and Zhuo succeeded to the throne in Besbali and reunified the Khanate.
, so the history of the Central Plains calls it the "Belos Bali Khanate", but at that time the Oara people had already entered the southern area of the Altai Mountains.
In 1399, Heder and Zhuo Khan died, and his son Shami Chagan Khan succeeded to the throne. In 1408, Shami Chagan Khan died, and his younger brother Mahama Khan succeeded to the throne. After the death of Shami Chagan Khan, the princes in various places became increasingly powerful, and Muhammad
Khan was squeezed out of his family by Bo, and the national power of the Bali Khanate was getting weaker and weaker day by day.
In 1408, the Oara people took the opportunity to cross the Irtysh River and went south, briefly occupying the capital Beslopali and parts of eastern northern Xinjiang. However, they were driven out by the troops directly under Muhammad Khan soon after. This was also the first time the Oara people entered the Irtysh River.
to the south.
In 1416, Muhammad Khan died, and the Khanate fell into civil strife due to the struggle for the throne. The Oara people took the opportunity to occupy the Bielosbali area of the capital for the second time.
In 1418, Naheshizhi Khan was assassinated, Muhammad Khan succeeded to the throne, and Uwaisi Khan proclaimed himself king with the support of the Timurid Dynasty. In 1420, Muhammad Khan died again, Uwaisi Khan succeeded to the throne and became the Sudan, and then moved the capital to
Yilibali became the "Yilibali Khanate".
During this period, the Khanate had been divided into pieces. Southern Xinjiang was occupied by the Bolachu family, the Turpan Khanate in eastern Xinjiang established itself and nominally submitted to the Ming Dynasty, and the Oara people occupied the Beslopali area in the eastern part of northern Xinjiang.
Wuwaisi Khan launched a war against the pagan Oara people, and was followed by a large number of sectarians. First, he squeezed out the Hudada of the N dynasty's elders, the Bola family, by wooing the city lords in southern Xinjiang, and then attacked the Oara people in the north. Although
His expeditions ended in failure many times, and he was even captured and forced to sympathize with the Oara people. However, he still unified Turpan in 1422 and soon defeated the Oara people entrenched in the Beslopali area.
In 1432, Wuwaisi Khan was accidentally shot to death by his own people in the war with the Timurid Dynasty at Lake Iksai. His descendants fought internally for the throne of Khan, and they did not take the throne first. Yunus Khan
(also known as Yunusi Khan) led his troops to seek refuge in the Timurid Empire, and the Kashgar area was occupied by the generals of the Timurid Dynasty.
At this time, the Uzbek tribe of the Blue Horde Khanate powerfully conquered the White Horde and other areas during the period of Ablibhir. The two Khans of the White Horde led more than 200,000 troops to take refuge in Ye Xian Bu Hua Khan. In order to fight against
The Uzbeks adopted a strategy of allying themselves with the Kazakhs. During the Han Dynasty, the Khanate was also briefly strong, allowing the princes in southern Xinjiang to actively express their loyalty and submission.
Ye Xian Bu Hua Khan made many incursions into the northern part of the river central area of the Timurid Dynasty. In 1456, with the support of the Timurid Dynasty, Yunus Khan marched eastward to fight against Ye Xian Bu Hua Khan. In 1462, Ye Xian Bu Hua Khan died.
, Yunus Khan took the opportunity to conquer the west and occupied the entire Ili area.
The civil strife in the Khanate led to the east-west division within the Eastern Chagatai Khanate. The Kazakhs occupied the northwest of the Khanate. Dusi Tema Heima fled to southern Xinjiang for refuge, so Yunus Khan conquered Turpan and annexed Hami. In 1472, Dusi
Temahima's son Qiebei II was killed, and Yunus Khan unified the entire khanate. The southern Xinjiang continued to be entrusted to Mahima Haidar.
In 1479, Mahemah Haidar's stepson Aba's Qier openly confronted his stepfather and prepared to send 50,000 troops to attack Kashgar. After Mahemah Haidar learned about it, he preemptively sent 30,000 troops to attack the Hotan area.
Aba's beggar was unfortunately defeated. In desperation, he asked Yunus Khan, who personally commanded 60,000 cavalry, combined with 30,000 cavalry from Mahima Haidar, for a total of 90,000 cavalry to attack Ye'er.
The beggar of Abba of Qiang.
The coalition forces were defeated, Yunus Khan returned to Ili in the north, Mahama Haidar returned to Aksu, and the southern and southern Xinjiang were divided between Mahima Haidar and Aba Qier.
Yunus Khan died of illness in Tashkent in 1487 AD, and his eldest son Mahmud succeeded to the throne in Tashkent. However, his ruling territory was limited to the western regions of the Khanate such as Tashkent and Talas, while the inner and outer Ili and northern Xinjiang and eastern Xinjiang were controlled by
His brother Ahema Khan ruled, and southern Xinjiang also nominally submitted to him.
After the death of Yunus Khan, the brothers Umar Shahi Milzan and Sutan Ahemah Milzan (both sons of Milzan Sutanbuzain) of the Timurid dynasty began to plan
Recaptured the city of Tashkent from the new Khan. Mahamu led his army to attack and not only recovered the city of Ushtur, but also defeated the attack of Umar Shahi Milzan.
Unwilling to be defeated, Sutan Ahemah Mirza later led an army of 150,000 to conquer the city of Tashkent, and Mahamu led his army to fight. Shayijhan (month) under Sutan Ahemah Mirza
That is, the grandson of Bie Abu Haier Khan) rebelled and surrendered to Mahamu Khan, resulting in the complete defeat of Sutan Ahei Mamierza.
Therefore, under the rule of Ahem Khan, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate became strong. In 1487 and 1493, it attacked Hami eastward, forcing the Ming Dynasty to withdraw from Hami. In the north, it marched into Oara and drove out Oara from the area north of the Irtysh River.
People. The west also marched into Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan three times and won victories. The south also conquered the beggars of Aba and made them submit.
However, in 1503, Ahemakhan marched into the river and was defeated and even captured by the three-party coalition. He died of illness soon after returning to Aksu, and his eldest son Mansur succeeded to the throne. Soon, the Wara people took the opportunity to reoccupy the Altay region and went south to occupy it.
Parts of the eastern part of Northern Xinjiang. In the following more than half a century, the Turpan Khanate and the Oara people competed for northern Xinjiang, and the Oara people officially entered the area and began to separate themselves.
As a result, the Khanate entered a state of tripartite division, and Burihatu also briefly introduced the various wars that occurred in the middle. Such a chaotic situation continued until the middle period of Jiajing, when the western region was under the rule of Abdul Rashid Khan.
Under governance, social stability and economic and cultural progress have been made.
In 1559, Abdul Rashid Khan died. After a brutal palace struggle, his second son Abdul Halim succeeded to the throne. During the reign of Abdul Halim Khan, the military strength of the western region continued to stabilize.
develop.
On the contrary, due to his mediocre political ability and the dissatisfaction of his subordinates, Shah Khan's dominance in the eastern region gradually declined. The family members who managed the affairs of various places did not listen to the instructions and each took the lead. In 1566, he died in a stray arrow during the northern expedition to Oara.
Shah Khan's uncle Sutanma Susu succeeded him as Khan.
This change in the eastern region aroused dissatisfaction with Abdul Halim in the west. Sutan Masutan had just come to power. Abdul Halim's younger brothers Suofei Sutan, Mahei Masutan and others used the excuse of Sutan Masutan's origin.
Question (not a descendant of Chagatai), sent troops to capture the Turpan area in 1570, captured Sutan Masu, and made Ma Heima Sutan the leader of the Turpan area.
In the same year, Mahei Masutan and other brothers sent envoys to Beijing to pay tribute in the name of the King of Turpan, establishing the connection between the Yarkand Khanate and the Ming Dynasty. The emergence of this situation also meant that the eastern region of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate also became a
Unified by the Yarkand Khanate under Abdul Khalim.
Abdul Halim, who completed the unification of the Khanate, died of illness last year. At that time, Burihatu had not yet made any plans to go there. However, this year, the situation in Chahar was critical. Burihatu thought for a long time and thought that the Han people
There is a saying that goes like this: "If you move a tree, you will die, but if you move a person, you will live." At this time, Chahar could only gain a chance of survival by moving westward, which is why the golden cicada escaped from its shell and the army marched westward to Tumut.
From the perspective of Burihatu's original intention, attacking Tumote was just a side trip. His goal has always been the Western Regions since he abandoned Chahanhot.
After Buyan Huangtaiji heard this, he realized that Buyan Hatu had already planned it, and it was definitely not a temporary idea. He couldn't help but feel refreshed, because he had regained a lot of the confidence he had lost in "two defeats in one day".
