Chapter 282: Inside and Outside the Palace (4) Chahar is surrounded by wolves
Of course, it is not clear yet that what Burihatu did was highly pragmatic, but he vaguely guessed in this direction.
Of course, highly pragmatic guesses are not blind guesses, they must have some basis. They are based on the motivations of all parties, geographical patterns, historical processes, etc., and then what is formed is called guessing, otherwise it will become random thoughts.
Although the historical process was somewhat disrupted by him, as for the Western Region, it was nothing more than the Chahar Magpie Nest Dove that he drove away, which in turn ruled the original so-called Yarkand and other Chahar tribes.
When they get there, the situation they face will not be much different from that of the original Yarkant.
If I have to say yes, it may be that Burihatu will feel that he is surrounded by enemies on all sides in the short term, especially since he has Tumut in the northeast, Ming Dynasty in the due east, and Qinghai Tumut in the southeast. These three places are clear.
of hostility.
Directly to the north is Junggar, which should have undecided friends and foes. This is because Junggar has always had ambitions for the Yarkand region. The original Yarkand has obviously begun to decline, and the Junggar side must be ready to make a move. Unfortunately, the problem is that the Junggar people are now internally
Without unity, they are also fighting against each other, so they cannot put their ambitions into practice.
However, with the arrival of Chahar, the chance of the Junggars swallowing Yarkand is greatly reduced, which will definitely affect their attitude towards Chahar - even in name, the Junggars recognize the Chahar tribe as the "Great Khan of Mongolia"
"Khan Court", but that is useless, because for the Mongols, the name is worthless in the face of actual interests.
Further south is Uszang, but you don’t need to pay attention here because it is too difficult to get there, and it is almost impossible for people there to come to the Yarkand area. In addition, for Burihatu, even if Uszang is
Granting him rule would probably not arouse much interest in him. After all, the transportation between the two places is too inconvenient, and the Us-Tibet area really cannot help the current situation in their Chahar headquarters, so there is no need to distract them.
The west side is more complicated. The first thing to talk about is the so-called "Three Khanates of Central Asia".
The so-called "Three Khanates of Central Asia" refer to the three khanates established by the newly formed Uzbeks in Central Asia after the demise of the Shaibani Dynasty, namely the Bukhara Khanate, the Kokand Khanate, and the Khiva Khanate.
Khanate.
The history of these three khanates should be said to basically constitute the modern history of Central Asia. Since the three khanates were basically born out of the Shaibani dynasty, and because of the chaos of the ruling groups in Central Asia, the establishment time of each khanate
There are different explanations and divisions, which is quite confusing.
Some division methods divide the Bukhara Khanate into different dynasties. The Shabani dynasty is the first generation, and Shabani is the founder. However, some say that it started with the establishment of the capital of Bukhara in 1583, and this
It is already the eleventh year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty.
After Shaibani Khan died in battle in 1508, his nephew Obaidullah took control of the real power of the Uzbek Khanate, and his headquarters was Bukhara. Obaidullah was said to be a man of many talents, and Bukhara was under his rule.
, became the center of literature, art and scholarship in Central Asia.
By 1539, the upper-level ruling group of Bukhara split again and fell into internal strife. Prince Abdullah Sultan stood out and gradually became the most powerful one. This prince succeeded to the throne of Khan in 1583, and Bukhara
It was officially established as the capital of the Khanate, so some people call this time the time when the Bukhara Khanate was established.
The second generation dynasty of the Bukhara Khanate is the Astrakhan Dynasty, and its rulers are the Zani family, who are descendants of the Astrakhanate who were the original vassal state of the Kipchak Khanate. However, their story is temporarily very pragmatic.
It has nothing to do with Burihatu, so I won’t go into details here and just fast forward to the Khiva Khanate.
The main territory of the Khiva Khanate is in Khwarezm, and its capital is Urgenchi, which is the famous Jade Dragon Chijie in history. Yulong Chijie is a place that has been plagued by disasters. It has been destroyed many times due to wars.
It was rebuilt several times and later renamed Urgenzi.
Since the Khanate's government eventually moved its capital to Khiva, it was called the Khiva Khanate. The establishment of this Khanate essentially stemmed from resistance to Persia.
The approximate history of the Khiva Khanate is as follows: After the decline of the Timurid Empire, the Persian Empire took the opportunity to invade the Khwarazm region. As a result, Shaibani Khan was defeated by Yinsma'il II of Persia, and the Khwarazm region
Then it was annexed.
Although both Persia and the Hezhong area believe in a certain religion, Hezhong belongs to the Xn sect and Persia belongs to the Sy sect, so there are constant conflicts between the police in Khwarezm Prefecture. Later, the government group in Khwarezm secretly welcomed Yin Le, a descendant of the Golden Horde Khan.
Bas, established the Khanate in 1515 to resist Persia.
This khanate was the Khiva Khanate. In 1594, five years ago, the country was briefly annexed by the Bukhara Khanate, but it was quickly restored.
There were internal strife within the Khiva Khanate and powerful neighbors outside, so the struggle had always been very fierce. Even the Khan king was often deposed at will. This unfortunate situation was not changed until the later period of the Khanate, when a hereditary dynasty was established.
It's called the Hongji Ci Dynasty. This dynasty lived until...the Soviet Union came. But this has nothing to do with this book, so I won't mention it for now.
The last one is the Kokand Khanate. In fact, this cannot be said, because it does not exist at all now. The Kokand Khanate was the latest to be established among the three khanates, and its territory is mainly in the Fergana region, so it is also
It's called the Fergana Khanate. The establishment of this khanate was gradually formed in the struggle with the Junggar Khanate in the original history... Then forget it, there is no need to explain it.
Generally speaking, the Bukhara Khanate and the Khiva Khanate came from the dynasty established by the Uzbeks who originally settled in the river. The ancestors of the Kokand Khanate were the Mingge tribe of the Uzbek tribe. They were originally a tribe of Bukhara.
The restraint part only became independent later.
The relationship between the three is also very subtle (of course there are only two at the moment), and they often take advantage of each other. For example, when Bukhara wanted to seize the city of Kokand, Khiva came over to make a sneak attack, causing Bukhara Khan to
The country is simply unable to fight against Kokand with all its strength, and when Kokand is in civil strife, Bukhara will get involved and interfere in its political affairs. For example, Hudoyar Khan came to power, the son of Nasrallah, the different miraculous of Bukhara.
, the "masterpiece" of the next secret Muzaffar al-Din.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Now the Three Kingdoms do not exist, there are only two countries, then the relationship is not complicated, because it is more straightforward: the daily mentality is "one of us must die".
However, although the Kokand Khanate does not yet exist, there is another larger "third country", which is the Kazakh Khanate located to the north of them.
The Kazakh Khanate belongs to the Mongolian Khanate. It was a country founded by descendants of the Mongolian Golden Family between 1456 and 1847. It was founded by Sultans Kelei Khan and Janibek Khan of the Jochi family.
They officially broke away from the Golden Horde in 1456 and migrated to Mughalstan, Chuhe, and Talas. Buhua II and Yunusi of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate also took over a place in Mughalstan.
Kuqibash was set aside for them to live in. From 1465 to 1466, a large number of nomads broke away from Abu Khaier. He died in battle in this year, and his land was taken over by the Kazakh Khanate. A purely nomadic country was established, and it was officially established in 1470.
The country was founded, also known as "Turkistan".
The Kazakh Khanate occupied a large territory at its peak. The area they lived in was called Qinchak Grassland, which was divided into Big Yuzi, Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi. It was also called the Big Tent, the Middle Tent and the Small Tent.
The middle tent is located in the central highlands of Kazakhstan, the small tent is from the Ural River to the Caspian Sea, and the big tent is from the west of Lake Balkhash to Turkestan. Due to geographical reasons, the small tent also attracts many Nogai people.
At that time, their territory was vast, extending to the Irtysh River in the east, the Yinshim River in the north, Turgai Oblast, Omsk, the Caspian Sea in the west, and the Syr Darya River in the south. In the era of Hasmukhan, the country had a population of hundreds
There are more than 100,000 troops, and the strength is said to be 300,000.
After the death of Janibek Khan, Hasmud Sultan ascended the throne, and the country became prosperous and occupied Tashkent. He also repelled the attack of Shaibani - the one mentioned before when talking about the Bukhara Khanate.
Hasim Khan once received Said Khan of the Yarkand Khanate in Turkestan, and his winter grazing land was in the Haratal Valley. This period was also a period of massive expansion of the Kazakh Khanate.
By 1525, the fourth year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty, the forces of the Kazakh Khanate finally met with the Kyrgyz in Mughalstan, and jointly defeated the Yarkant army of the Chagatai Khanate.
However, it may be that "Hu has no luck for a hundred years". After the death of Hasim Khan, the Kazakh Khanate began to decline - of course it was not the kind of collapse that fell instantly. To a certain extent, they gradually began to decline after that.
reached a brief peak.
In 1568, the second year of Longqing, the year when Gao Gong was forced to leave his job and go back to teach Gao pragmatic reading, the Kazakh Khanate also defeated the Nogai people on the Emba River and extended its power to Astrakhan.
From 1583 to 1598, that is, from the eleventh year of Wanli to this year (referring to the twenty-sixth year of Wanli, but it is already the end of the year and the New Year is about to begin), Tavukal Khan exercised his khan power, and the military strength and political influence of the Kazakh Khanate reached
A peak.
It was this year (1598) that he personally led the army to occupy the city of Samarhan and surrounded Bukhara and Khiva. In the autumn of this year, Bukhara negotiated peace with Turkestan, and the two sides signed the Bukhara-Kazakh Treaty.
The Bukhar-Kazakh Treaty stipulated that the entire southern Kazakhstan and Tashkent areas, Samar Khan, including the entire Fergana area, were merged into the Kazakh Khanate from Bukhara.
The national power of Kazakhstan and its relationship with the Bukhara Khanate have been discussed here. Now we will introduce another force, a force that the Ming Dynasty is quite familiar with: Oara.
Volume 1 of this book mentioned briefly that due to the squeeze of Eastern Mongolia after the reorganization of Dayan Khan, the Oara gradually moved westward. Following this topic (it seems a bit too far...), we will talk about the westward migration of the Oara
Later, conflict with Kazakhstan began in 1524.
Around 1525 (still the fourth year of Jiajing), the so-called "Two Hundred Years War" between Oirat and Kazakhstan began.
In 1572, which was the sixth year of Longqing, the tribute tribute of Anda had just been completed, and the Anda Khan sent Qeji Huangtaiji to march westward (for the specific process, please refer to the introduction of Qeji Huangtaiji's life in this book when Gao was pragmatic in pacifying the northwest), and marched in Tuo
Kemoke——Suiye City.
Qie Zhihuang Taiji defeated Aksar Khan in the Silamalam area, plundered the people, and captured Qugeyi Fujin and Qingba Tul as his wife.
However, the main reason for the expedition to eliminate Huang Taiji was that Anda Khan wanted to show his strength and came back after killing all directions - the purpose of this move is very simple: we in Eastern Mongolia are always orthodox, and you Weitra no matter in Central Asia
No matter how powerful you are, you will always be our vassals.
This move actually doesn't have much practical significance for Anda Khan, but it is very bad news for Weitra Mongolia - that is, Wala, because the Western Expedition that wiped out Huang Taiji greatly weakened their strength.
.
According to original history, between 1615 and 1652, the Kazakh Khanate finally defeated the Oirat attack and occupied the western region of the Oirat Khanate, dominated by Junggar, that is, the Seven Rivers region. However, this has not happened yet.
It will not be expanded.
In short, the Kazakh Khanate is not said to be at its peak, at least it is definitely a powerful force in this region. However, it not only has to face attacks from time to time by the Oara tribes, but also has to compete with the Bukhara Khanate, and its strategic posture is not stable.
That's pretty good.
Oh, I seem to have forgotten to mention a very important relationship: the famous "Zungar" in later generations is actually only one of the "Four Parts of Wala". Of course, they are currently the most powerful of the four.
To sum up, Central Asia as a whole is a mess. But if you break it down, the three countries of Oara (Vitara), Kazakhstan, and Bukhara are quite powerful.
How powerful is it specifically... At least judging from the paper data, the Chahar tribe only counts the troops who brought Yarkant, and any of these three families may be stronger than them. Fortunately, Burihatu's methods are clever and short-term.
In just a few years, the Yarkand region has been stabilized, and the local people can be used to do some things to a certain extent - except for fighting.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But that’s it. The Central Asia that Burihatu faces is a chaotic Central Asia. It is difficult to say whether these three are enemies or friends. Maybe
Today we looked like we were still friends, but tomorrow morning they were already here to kill us.
The reason is not complicated. No matter which one of these three families, they all coveted Ye Erqiang in the past. Although Ye Erqiang has a new owner now, this new owner was expelled by the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen that even if it is not
The strength is not strong, at least it is in the state of "the current strength is greatly damaged".
If it's the former, since you are not strong, then everyone is nomadic, so it is normal for me to covet you. It is also the purpose of the question to send troops to test and find out the details.
If it's the latter, then you need to be more alert to deal with it. Don't wait for you to regain your strength and then have malicious intentions towards me. Therefore, it stands to reason that you should try it out. If it's easier to fight, then attack it early to expand your power.
, if it is difficult to fight... then find a small notebook and write it down first. In the future, you will be my next target after defeating the enemy at hand.
After thinking about it this way, Gao Pragmatic could quickly deduce that although the Chahar tribe had grabbed a piece of geomantic treasure land after moving westward, they were actually in a disadvantageous situation where they were surrounded by enemies on all sides and were even surrounded by wolves.
Under such circumstances, Burihatu will never sit still and wait for death. Based on his vision and ability, he will definitely choose to take the initiative by himself, create something first, and let others revolve around his baton -
- Just like when he single-handedly caused the rebellion in the northwest.
