Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 822 Make the water muddy
Hami.

It was called Yiwu in ancient times, and Yizhou was established in Tang Dynasty.

Xiang is the throat of the Western Regions, and the Chinese arch guard.

Airimu entered the city with several Royal Guards of the Ming Empire in gorgeous armor. The leader of the Uzbek Minger tribe, Burke, had been sizing up the city.

Hami has a great reputation in Central Asia. It used to be the westernmost territory of Ming Dynasty, but it lost three times.After Mongolia occupied Yiwu, it changed its name to Hami. Later, Wu Nashili, a descendant of Chagatai enfeoffed by the Yuan Dynasty, established the Hami Kingdom in Hami.

Zhu Yuanzhang recruited Buyan Timur, the leader of the Sari Uyghurs west of Jiayu Pass, and after setting up the Seven Guards of the Kansai, he pushed his soldiers and horses to the gate of Hami. He had no choice but to surrender, and the Ming army withdrew after forcing Wuna Shili to surrender.

Zhu Di later canonized the new king of Hami, Anketimur, as King Zhongshun, and King Buyantiemuer Anding of Kansai became the two foreign vassals in the westernmost part of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, when Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty succeeded to the throne, another loyal king was named in Hami.

However, after the change of Tumubao, Ming Dynasty basically lost its actual control over the west of Jiayu Pass, and the Turpan Khanate, which was split from East Chagatai, belonged to the same Chagatai branch as the Hami Kingdom, but Turpan In order to fight for control of the Silk Road, he began to attack and plunder Hami.

But in the 18th year of Chenghua, the Gansu guard Wang Xi used the seven Kansai guards to attack Hami at night, defeated the Turpan guard, and successfully recovered Hami.

During the time of Hongzhi, Aheima Khan of Turpan used tricks to trap and kill Hanshen, and regained Hami again. However, he was forced to withdraw from Hami after being threatened by Ming Dynasty.

But not long after, Hami officers withheld Daming's rewards from Turpan, and also plundered Turpan's cattle and sheep, prompting A Heima to go eastward again, not only captured Hami again, but also captured Shanba, and marched into the border of Gansu.

The Ming army sent the governor of Gansu to send troops. The Ming army general led 4000 people to conquer Hami westward. As a result, the Turpan army ran away, leaving an empty city. When the Ming army withdrew, they came back to occupy Hami.
Later Turpan Khan Mansuer and his younger brother Yarkand Khan Said reached a peace agreement, so they were able to invade Gansu with peace of mind, directly surrounded Gansu City, and killed the guerrilla Rui Ning.

Later, Zhu Houzhao led the army to fight against the little Tatar prince. At the same time, he also sent Chen Jiuchou, the deputy envoy of military preparation, to join forces with the Oirats to attack Mansuer. Turpan was defeated and asked for peace.

During the Jiajing period, Turpan made another comeback and attacked Gansu for the second time, but this time, the Wacha people stood on the side of the Turpan people. The Ming Dynasty sent the Minister of Military Affairs to defeat the Turpan army under the city of Suzhou.

However, after the war, the Ming army did not take the opportunity to go westward to recover the Seven Guards of Kansai and Hami. The internal struggles of the Ming Dynasty were fierce due to the great ceremony. In the frontier prison, more than [-] people including Chen Jiuchou were dealt with, and Yang Tinghe, who had dared to defy the emperor in the grand ceremony, was also dismissed from office.

Jiajing took the opportunity to attack the Daliyi faction and strengthened his authority, but Daming also completely lost the Kansai Seven Guards and Hami because of this. Daming finally gave up Hami and acquiesced in the Turpan Khanate's occupation of Hami.

In the blink of an eye, more than 100 years.

Who would have thought that the Ming Dynasty would come back again.

And it's coming back so strongly.

Hami's Baishan faction and Zhuo led the Burkes to riot and captured the city of Hami. They were about to dedicate it to Junggar, but the Ming army suddenly killed it.

The Burkes thought it was the Junggars who came, but when the cavalry entered the city, they discovered that it was the cavalry of Emperor Ming.

It was too late for them to react. The Ming army quickly took over the city, but the Burkes refused at this time. As a result, the Ming army was not polite to them. A gunshot fired and the whole city was cleaned.

Zhang Yong rushed to Dunhuang three days later to report to the emperor that Hami was in full control.

Hami City had a population of 3 to [-] people, and there were only two to three thousand people left at this time. This God of Killing showed no mercy to those who dared to resist with arms.

When he came to report, there was no one native in Hami City, and they were all escorted back to Dunhuang.

From the 13th year of Hongwu when King Hami was granted the title, until it was annexed by Turpan Khan, Hami went through eleven generations, 130.

After that, it was occupied by Turpan Khan and Yarkand Khan for more than a hundred years.

Now it is recovered by Daming.

After regaining Hami, the emperor also moved to Hami, renamed Hami Yizhou Prefecture, set up magistrates, magistrates, etc., and set up the imperial camp Yiwu Imperial Camp, Yiwu Patrol, Yiwu Tun Town, Yiwu Station, Yiwu Feng et al.

Daming's shot this time was a little too quick to cover his ears.

The Baishan faction was caught off guard, and Junggar was also unexpected. They were still preparing to take over the Baishan faction, but Daming picked the peaches first.

But the secret agreement between them and the Baishan faction couldn't be made public.

Originally, I wanted to say that Hami and Turpan belonged to Junggar, but Daming replied that Turpan and Kazakhstan were assigned to Junggar before, but Junggar itself lost it. In the last alliance of various countries, it was agreed that Hami should belong to Daming and Turpan should belong to Junggar. Hetian belongs to Heshuo Te.

As for the meat that reached his mouth, Zhu Yihai didn't intend to spit it out at all.

He is not Jiajing either. In order to consolidate his imperial power and attack Yang Tinghe and others, he gave away the country's territory and sent the soldiers guarding the border to prison.

In the past, Daming accepted three times and abandoned three times, but Zhu Yihai would not give up.

Not only the Kansai Seven Guards had to actually immigrate and settle, but also Hami.

All the way, Airim secretly looked at Hami City and the army in this city.

There was not a single Uighur with a white hat, black hat or red hat in the city, and there were no Kyrgyz, the main force in the Yarkand army.

Those tens of thousands of Hami aborigines seemed to have never appeared here.

It seemed as if it had all disappeared overnight.

Although the city and streets are still there, and the house style here is still the same, but now it is full of Ming people.

The armor is bright, and the guns are majestic.

The guards in the city are strict.

Airimu was extremely shocked, it took such a great strength to do this.

Finally, he arrived at Hami Palace.

This is the original palace of King Hami, and later the residence of the governor of Hami, and now it is the residence of Emperor Ming.

When he was led to the emperor by the guards, the leader of the Minge tribe couldn't help bowing down.

"Arimu, do you want to be a khan, do you want to rule the whole of Fergana?"

The emperor spoke a word, which made Airimu's heart surge.

"think."

Airimu responded without hesitation.

"Very good, as long as you can agree to some of my conditions, I can confer you the title of Great Ming's foreign vassal king, and support you to establish your own khanate for your Minge tribe. I even thought of the name of the khanate for you, Dawan Khanate."

The emperor sat there condescendingly, talking casually, but the content was astonishing.

Airimu had no doubts about the emperor's ability.

Just like this Hami city, it was owned by Daming in a blink of an eye, and even a single native was gone.

As one of the 72 Uzbek departments, the Minger Department is not very strong.

As descendants of the Golden Horde, the Uzbeks established the Uzbek Khanate, and later Shaybani destroyed the Timurid Empire, unified the river area, and established the Shaybani Dynasty.

Later, Irbars, who also came from the Xiban family, drove out the Persian governor in Khwarezm and established the Khiva Khanate.

The Shaybani dynasty was established for a hundred years, and its capital was originally Samarkand, but later it was moved to Bukhara, so it was also called the Bukhara Khanate.

His son-in-law is the royal family of Astrakhan Khan. After Tsarist Russia annexed the Astrakhan Khanate, a prince took his son Zani to seek refuge in the Blaha Khanate. As a result, the Khan changed hands to the Zani family. The Bukhara Khanate was also transformed from the Shaybani Dynasty to the Zani Dynasty or the Astrakhan Dynasty.

Although several generations of the Khans of the Zani Dynasty also worked hard to strengthen the centralization of power and rule the country with religious law, and had a short-term prosperity, but after all, he was a foreign son-in-law who succeeded the Datong. , and the internal strife in the royal family is also very fierce.

In addition, the Persian Safavid Dynasty, the Indian Mughal Empire, and the Khiva Khanate also took the opportunity to invade frequently, and the Khanate gradually weakened and fell into division.

As one of the 72 Uzbek departments, the Minger Department is not very strong.

They live in the fertile Fergana Basin, but in this basin, like other places in the Bukhara Khanate, they are basically governed by those big and small and Zhuo, who have become separatist feudal lords.

These Hezhuo have extremely high prestige in the local area, and each has a separate regime with strong strength.

At this time, the Zani Dynasty had internal and external troubles, and it was difficult for government orders to come out of Bukhara. The Minge Department had always wanted to be self-reliant, but lacked strong foreign aid.

But now the Emperor Ming wants to support them in establishing the country.

He was excited and believed in the emperor.

Today, these khans in Lianghe and other places are basically canonized by Daming, and even the two major countries of Persia Safi and India's Mughals also have friendly exchanges with Daming.

"I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor needs from our Minge Department?"

Zhu Yihai said with a smile, "I know you hate those Hezhuo people in Bukhara?"

Airim also replied directly: "Our Minger tribe also converted to *religion with Uzbek Khan, but I can't understand those Hezhuo who have not received strict academic training, but pretend to be the incarnation of the true god in front of the believers. , especially those fakirs who cheat in the name of saints..."

Zhu Yihai has heard about some of Aimu's behaviors. This is a real old man, or this man's power struggle is relatively fierce. Bukhara is now in power with Zhuo. The actual feudal separatist lords were big manor landlords, big businessmen, big ranchers, etc., and they were very rich.

The Ming tribe is a clan tribe, and Airim is actually a Burke. He also wants to separate himself, but his ambitions are even greater. He wants to establish a khanate, even replace Bukhara, and even conquer Khiva and reunify the entire river. In Uzbek hands.

The biggest obstacle standing in front of him now is not the Zhani Dynasty in Bukhara, but the size and Zuboks in those places.

Airimu used the grounds of truthfulness to attack those He Zhuo. Some people said that he could float on air and water, so he let him perform in public. Arrest all the dervishes with strong brainwashing ability, and send them all to the desert to feed camels.

Through these simple and crude means, he overthrew a large group of Hezhuo who opposed him, and then overwhelmed more Hezhuo by deterrence. He joined forces with the Xun* faction to build a large Zong* school in the territory, and even sent his sister Married to Hezhuo, the largest in the Fergana region, to stabilize his power position. As a result, when his position was stabilized, he killed his donkey and exiled his brother-in-law. Through these methods,
Changed Fergana's original situation of autonomy from Hezhuo to the situation where Hezhuo is now eliminated by him, and the Minge family dominates.

This is a capable person, although he is a bit over the river.

But for Zhu Yihai, there is no need to worry about these.

What he liked was the bearded man's toughness towards He Zhuo, and also his ability to disrupt the situation. Supporting him to establish the Dawan Khanate and canonizing him as the loyal and obedient king of Ming Dynasty was nothing more than muddying the water.

Historically, the Minge tribe established itself from Braha decades later and established the Kokand Khanate, which had a great influence on the future situation in Central Asia.

Yarkand is about to be destroyed and partitioned, and the next one is the Junggar Khanate.

And the emperor hadn't started to attack Junggar, but he had already started to support Minge's Arimu to set up the Dawan Khanate, so as to make Bukhara and Khiva in the river into chaos.

To win in chaos, there is a chance only when there is chaos, and only when there is chaos can Daming intervene in a legitimate way.

Moreover, Kazakhs were also separated from the Uzbek Khanate. They called themselves Kazakh-Uzbeks, which means wandering Uzbeks. Zhu Yihai wanted to disturb the river, but also had to prevent the Kazakhs from taking advantage of them.

Although the Minge tribe also believes in green, but now he will rely on Daming as a strong support in order to build the country. Not to mention changing his faith, but surrendering to Daming and acting as Daming's shit stick in the river is absolutely fine.

Moreover, Fergana is a treasure land. The most suitable place for farming in Central Asia is here. It has more advantages than the Ili Valley. Moreover, it also produces sweaty BMWs, and it is also an important section of the Silk Road.

For long-distance and short-range attack, first pull a thug from a distance.

At that time, it can not only contain Persia and India in the south, but also provide some food and grass for Daming, and open up trade on the Silk Road.

Take what you need.

As for whether the Dawan Khanate will be in great trouble in the future, Zhu Yihai is not worried.

Now the first goal is to destroy Yarkand, then use this as a bait to destroy Junggar, and then Bukhara, one by one.

As early as the pre-Qin period, the ancestors had perfected the skill of playing together vertically and horizontally.

After taking down Hami, Daming successfully took another step towards the Western Regions. This is a good place, even though there is no one there now.

It seems that there is only an empty city, but for Zhu Yihai, an empty city with no one is better.

There are more than 500 million mu of reclaimable land in Hami, and as many as 6000 to 20 million mu of natural grassland. There are also coal and iron ore here. With the resources here, it can fully support [-] million or more people.

What Daming needs now is time, immigration, and reclamation. Given time, this place can become the pearl of the Western Regions of the Ming Dynasty, an important military base, and a big border trade city embedded in the Western Regions.

Time, Zhu Yihai needs some time to digest and develop, and supporting Airimu can buy more time.

Ailimu and Zhu Yihai reached a series of secret agreements, and agreed to send a daughter to marry and send two sons to serve as bodyguards when they returned home. Then they knelt down excitedly and left, and the emperor immediately summoned the Nogai people Cheban.

The Nogai people, also known as the Caucasus Turks, established the Nogai Khanate after the split of the Golden Horde. They nomadic in the Caspian Sea Kipchak grassland, and later split into the Nogai Khanate and so on. Up to now, in the north of the Black Sea The Nogais belonged to the Crimean Khanate, and those north of the Caspian Sea were annexed by the Kazakh Khanate.

The Nogai people got their name from the Zongwang Nahai of the Mongolian Shuchi family.

The part conquered by Kazakhs became the main part of Little Yuzi, while those who migrated to the Crimean Peninsula became the cavalry of the Khanate. In addition to herding horses and camels, they mainly captured the Slavs and gave them to the Crimean Tartars. The Tartars were sold to the Ottoman and Bukhara Khanates.

After the Nogai people lost their khanate, they are now scattered all over the place, but these people are very tough.Zhu Yihai summoned several Nogai tribal leaders and began to make cakes for them.

As long as they surrender to Ming, the Emperor of Ming will support them to restore the country in the Qincha grassland (the Aral Sea to the north of Ukraine).

The Nogai people, who had been reduced to mercenary cavalry, were excited when they heard this.

The emperor smiled and painted cakes, and supported the Nogai people to restore their country, which was just a stumbling block for Kazakhs and even Tsarist Russia and Khiva.

Water, the muddier the better.
