Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 879 The Abacus of the Khanate

As the night darkened, the eyes of the Kazakh cavalrymen shone like wild wolves.

Now is the most powerful period of the Kazakh Khanate. The surrounding countries have been beaten by him almost once but have never been defeated. Even the mighty Zhungeer and Yarkand Khanates dare not offend them. They still occupy the territory of Zhungeer. Western Region.

This is also one of the reasons why they dared to send troops to help the Yarkand Khanate, and they had the support of Lao Maozi behind them.

Lao Maozi promised them that after occupying the Yarkand Khanate, Zhungeer Khanate and Heshuo Khanate and other countries, he would give them the most coveted Ili River Valley in Kazakhstan.

Therefore, the Kazakh Khanate sent troops to help the Yarkand Khanate this time also had its own small calculations.

They were worried that Lao Maozi would want to monopolize the Ili River Valley after seeing this geomantic treasure.

Therefore, the Kazakh Khanate prepared to use the excuse of sending troops to resist the Ming Dynasty, wait for the opportunity to actually control the Ili River Valley, and use raw rice to make mature rice, leaving the old Maozi Tsarist Russia with nothing to say.

How did they know about Tsarist Russia's wolfish ambitions? In fact, Tsarist Russia has long been preparing to annex the Kazakh prairie. Now they are building a fortress in the Kazakh prairie, nominally to protect the Kazakh Khanate, but actually to completely control the Kazakh prairie.

The Kazakh Khanate occupied a relatively large territory during its heyday. The area where they lived was called the Qincha Grassland, which was divided into Dayuzzi, Zhongyuzi and Xiaoyuzi.

Also known as large account, medium account, small account.The medium tent is located in the central highlands of Kazakhstan, the small tent is located from the Ural River to the Caspian Sea, and the large tent is located from the west of Lake Balkhash to Turkestan.

The small tent also absorbed many Nogai people.It extends to the Irtysh River in the east, the Ishm River, Turgai Prefecture, and Omsk in the north, the Caspian Sea in the west, and the Syr Darya River in the south.

After the death of Janibek Khan, Hasimu Sultan came to the throne.The country was prosperous and occupied Tashkent. He repelled the attack of Shaybani.

He also received Said Khan of the Yarkand Khanate in Turkestan.His winter pasture is in the valley of the Haratal.This period was also a period of massive expansion of the Kazakh Khanate.

In 1525, the forces of the Kazakh Khanate and Kyrgyz met in Mughalstan and jointly defeated the army of the Chagatai Khanate Yarkand.

Kazakh Khanate weakened after Kasim Khan's death.Later, the Kazakh Khanate defeated the Nogai people by the Emba River, and their influence extended to Astrakhan.

1583-1598. Tavukil Khan exercised the power of the Khan.The military power and political influence of the Kazakh Khanate reached its peak.

In 1598, he personally led the army to occupy the city of Samarahan and surrounded Bukhara and Khiva. In the autumn of that year, Bukhara negotiated peace with Turkestan.

The two sides signed the Bukhara-Kazakh Treaty.According to the Bukhar-Kazakh Treaty, the entire South Kazakhstan and Tashkent region, Samare Khan including the entire Fergana region will be merged into the Kazakh Khanate from Bukhara.

Due to being squeezed by Eastern Mongolia after Dayan Khan's reorganization, Oala gradually moved westward, and began to conflict with Kazakhs in 1524.
.
Around 1525, the Oirat-Kazakh "200 Years War" began.

In 1652, the Kazakh Khanate defeated the Oirat attack and occupied the western part of the Junggar Khanate.

In the middle of the 17th century, the Kazakh Khanate, which the Junggars fought back, occupied most of the Dayuzi Khan in the southeast and the Yarkant Khanate, a descendant of Chagatai, basically controlling Mughalstan.

After 1682, the Kazakh Khanate has been at a disadvantage. In 1748, the great king of the Kazakh Khanate came to power, Abu Khan. The Kazakh Khanate prospered during the time of Abu Lai. He also counterattacked the Junggars and recovered Tashkent, Qiliuhe and other southeastern regions.

Signed an agreement with the Russian Tsar to maintain peace in the western part of the Kazakh Khanate.

From 1752 to [-], Abu led the Kazakh army to attack Boretala, the Ili River in the center of Junggar, and successfully occupied the capital of the Junggar Khanate. Later, the remaining troops and civilians of the Junggar Khanate were wiped out by the Qing army.

After the Qing Dynasty exterminated the Junggars, they exchanged fire with the Kazakh Khanate several times, but neither side achieved a clear victory, and later signed a peace agreement.

While accepting the Kazakh subjects, Russia continued to invade the south in order to strengthen its real and actual control over the Kazakh Khanate, and began to build some military fortresses on the Kazakh pastures.

Kirov, the fifth-class civil servant of the Secretariat of the Russian Senate, submitted to the government two proposals on governing the Kazakh system.

The content of these two plans was related to Russia's opening of trade routes to Central Asia, establishment of the Aral Sea navigation system, and development of trade and political relations with the Khanates in Central Asia.

Kirov suggested that in order to ensure that the Kazakh region belongs to Russia, a fortress should be built on the Ori River, which is the origin of the Orenburg Fortress.

Kirov also suggested building 45 fortresses successively between Orenburg and the Aral Sea.

He believes that these fortresses are not only beneficial for Russia to control the Kazakhs, but also can be used as a base for Russia to attack southern Central Asia in the future.

From then on, the Russians began to build fortresses along the three major rivers of the Ural River, the Ishim River and the Irtysh River on the Kazakh grazing land.

Most of these fortresses are in the border areas of the Kazakh Khanate.Transform Siberia, the capital of the Siberian Khanate, into Tobolsk Fortress.

All these fortresses became the starting point of the military border line on the Irtysh River, which later became a reliable base for the gradual advance of the tsarist army towards the Kazakh Khanate.

Russia incited the Turghuts and Bashkirs to attack the Kazakhs in order to weaken the Kazakhs.

To use one nation against another in order to preserve Russia's power.

In history, when Turhut returned to the east, he was once brutally intercepted and killed by the Kazakh Khanate.

Soldiers from the Torghut Department raided the barracks of Captain Dudin, stationed by the Tsarist Russian government in the Ubashi Yazhang, and the uprising officially broke out.

After annihilating Captain Dudin's barracks, Ubashi led his troops to destroy the Russian reinforcements and the Russian towns built by Russia in the Volga River Basin.

In the end, Wobaxi organized 3.3 households, about 17 people returning to the east, and formed a three-way army. With elite cavalry as the vanguard, they officially started the journey of returning to the east.

Due to sufficient preparation, the Russian army was unprepared, so the returning east team quickly defeated the Russian army and towns along the route, and successfully crossed the Volga River.The journey back to the east began.

After receiving the news of the Turghut's uprising and returning to the east, although the Tsarist Russian government issued an order to pursue the Turghut's Ministry.

Tsarist Russia's military action to prevent the Turghut troops from returning to the east did not have any substantial impact.

On the contrary, the Kazakhs, who had not yet been completely conquered by Tsarist Russia at this time, became the most dangerous enemy to prevent the Turghut troops from returning eastward.

After breaking through the siege and interception of the Kazakhs, after many brutal battles.

The Turghut tribe, which had a population of 17 at the time of departure, had less than half of its population when it arrived in Ili, Xinjiang, China.

In other words, more than 8 Turghuts were killed or captured during the Kazakhs' siege.
