Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 829

Shatuo moraine desert north.

Fuhai.

A detachment of cavalry appeared to block the advance of the Junggar vanguard.

"You have crossed the border. Talbahatai Mountain is the boundary between Junggar and Durbert Khanate delineated by the Oirat-Fengtian Law Code. To the north of the mountain, the Zaisangpo, Ulungu Lake and the Ortysh River area are all It belongs to our Durberts."

The Durbert cavalry drew their bowstrings and aimed at the Junggars.

A Junggar came forward.

"Dear Duerbert brother, I am the Baga brother of the Cholos family, and my father is Chuhu Erhun Taiji, the brother of Batur Khan. We are just passing by, and there is no hostility."

One of Duerbert's cavalry also walked out.

"We are the subordinates of Sonomcering Huntaiji, the son of Aldartes and Shuoqi Khan. This is the fiefdom of Sonomcering. You must not cross the border, otherwise you will violate the covenant!"

Bagabandi smiled and handed the kumiss, "Brother, Junggar and Duerbert are both descendants of Yexian, both from the Chuoros family. Why do we have such identities? We are just passing by!"

In Oirat, there is a legend that has been circulating. It is said that the ancestors of Duerbert and the Junggar people descended from the sky. A hunter picked up a baby under a tree with a crooked neck. Pipe, so he was named Choros (synonymous with leaky pipe), the sap of the tree dripped down the leaky pipe into the baby's mouth, which made him alive. The hunter called him the son of the gnarly tree and the owl.

The hunter believed that the child was a gift from heaven, so he said that the child was the nephew of heaven.

At the time of Yexian, Yexian's son Boronahale separated from the Chuoros family and formed another tribe, which later became Duerbert.

Calculating the time, it has only been 200 years since Duerbert was separated from the Chuoros family. After the famous leader of Durbert, Da Laitesh, died, his son inherited the position of leader, but he refused to obey the deputy leader Batu Er recruited Kazakhs, and Batur led his troops to attack and defeated them. He once said bluntly to the Chechen, saying that Duerbert is the Junggar brothers, and they belong to me.

At one time, they almost annexed the leaderless Duerbert people, but later the Ming army took action to support Durbert, and Heshuo Tegushi Khan and Chechen Khan's nephews did not want to see the Junggar family dominating, so they deliberately intervened. In the end, many of Duerbert's territories were given to Junggar.

The area southwest of the original Talbahatai Mountain and west of Barluk Mountain, including the Kuerwusu River Basin that flows into Lake Balkhash, was assigned to Junggar, while the Yili River Basin was all assigned to Heshuote.

The tribes of Duerbert all moved to the north of Mount Taerbahatai, grazing in the middle reaches of the Irtysh River, and returning to the old place of the Altay Mountains to nomadicly.

Most of the Duerbots returned to this pasture and broke away from the Junggars, leaving only one or two tribes who chose to stay in the Junggar Khanate, and the two tribes that moved westward with the Turghuts to the Volga River Valley in the early years. return.

Durbert and Huit jointly formed the Khanate, nomadic in the Altai Mountains and the Irtysh River area, with Tsarist Russia in the north, Khalkha Desert and Northern Mongolia in the east, the Kazakh Khanate in the west, Junggar in the south, and the southeast Then it went all the way to the north of Gansu in Daming.

Relying on the support of Daming, as well as the support of He Shuote and Jianlute, under the leadership of Da Laitesh's grandson Aldar Tesh, Duerbert is now gradually stabilizing the United Huite Department, especially those with They were able to survive thanks to Daming's support, and they were naturally grateful to Daming for their survival. On the contrary, they didn't have much affection for the Junggar people who once killed Duerbert and wholeheartedly annexed them.

Although the ancestors of the two clans were both sons of Ye Xian 200 years ago, they had already killed each other in order to compete for the pasture.

Even in Duerbert's early years, his brothers had constant internal strife, and many of them were instigated by the Junggar people.

Duerbert's cavalry did not go to pick up the mare's milk, and directly refused the Junggar's request to borrow a way.

"You have violated the Oirat-Fengtian Code, please return it immediately."

Bagapandi froze with his hand holding the kumiss bag, and the smile on his face gradually receded. He looked at the Duerbert man, "Just a few rides, can you stop us?"

"The Han people have a very good saying, don't toast or eat fine wine, you Duerbert can have today's security, it is a gift from our Junggar, don't think that now you recognize Ming as the master, you dare to treat us barking!"

The Duerbert knight still responded indifferently: "You have now crossed the border and entered the territory of Sonomucering Huntaiji, please leave immediately!"

Baga Pandi took back the kumiss, then lifted the bow and drew the string, and then shot.

He shot the knight off his horse with an arrow, moved forward on his horse, changed to a spear, raised one of his stabs high, turned around in front of the Duerbots, and finally threw the corpse in front of them.

"Take this barking dog back to Sonom Cering, and also tell He Shuoqihan that it belongs to the Chuoros family. Don't be a dog to the Ming people."

"Anyone who dares to block the way again will die!"

The Junggar people still have a psychological contempt for the Duerbert people, and these are all defeated.

Before the Junggars drove the Turghuts away, their leaders still lived in the small stone city of Hobokseli, which is only two or three hundred miles away from Ulungu Lake and by the Buke River, and then moved to Tacheng. , Talbagha Terrace.

Ulungu Lake and Jaisangpo have been pasture sites seized by the Junggars for a long time, and many Junggars still regard them as their own territory and the Duerbots as their vassals.

The rest of the Durbert knights glanced at the corpse of their companion, dismounted and brought him onto the horse, gave the Junggar a deep look of hatred, and then rode away.

They went to report to Sonom Cering.

Baga Pandi looked at their backs, sneered disdainfully, then raised his gun, "Go, keep going!"

Ulungu Lake is also called Dahaizi and Fuhai, and there is a small lake in the southeast called Xiaohaizi.On the southeast side of the lake, the Ulungu River flows into it, and on the north side, the Irtysh River flows by.

It leans against the Altai Mountains in the north and faces the desert in the south. To the east of Haizi is a large piece of very fertile water and grassland, and the foot of the Altai Mountains in the north is also an excellent pasture.

Such a good place should not be given to the damn Duerbots, this group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves.

······
Northwest of Lake.

Burqin.

The Mongols call the three-year-old camel Bur, and Jin means the herdsman, where the Burqin River flows into the Irtysh River.

It was a nomadic land for the Xiongnu in the Han Dynasty, Xianbei in the Three Kingdoms period, and Turkic in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

There are winding mountains, vast grasslands, and lush water and grass.

The Burqin River, which descends from the Altay Mountains, flows into the Irtysh River with water from the snow-capped mountains and flows northwest.On the southeast delta where the two rivers meet, a stone castle stands.

This is Burqin Fort.

Duerbert's Heshuoqi Khan's khan court is located in Altay, where there is the Chenghua Temple of the Great Buddha Temple, and sometimes he nomads to the Khobdo River on the east side of the Altay Mountains and the Khobdo City near Arakpo.

Burqin Fort was originally just a ranch camp, but now a small stone fort has been built.

There are cavalry training outside the castle, soldiers practicing artillery in the city, and herdsmen grazing in the distance.

There is also an earthen city next to the stone castle, which is a market. Nowadays, many Han merchants cross the Tianshan Mountains from Hami, pass through Qitai, the ancient city, and go north to Tashan, to the upper reaches of the Irtysh River and Ulungu River, and then go straight along the river to Burqin, where livestock and furs are purchased and Han products are sold.

In a short period of time, this place has become the most prosperous and lively trading market town in Duerbert, and merchants and herdsmen from the Khanate from far and near all come here to trade.

Burqin Fort is guarded next to it, and the Han Navy is stationed inside.

Like the Yiwu Army in Yiwu, the Tianshan Army in Gaochang, and the Jingsai Army in Tingzhou, the Han Navy in Burqin is also a new army, which was recruited by Daming with military attaches, instructors, and staff officers in Durbert It is composed of Mongol Durbert, Huit, Giligis and some former pioneers.

They accepted the dual leadership of Duerbert and Shuoqi Khan and Emperor Ming and Holy Khan Zhu Yihai. The weapons and equipment were also provided by Ming, and they were even equipped with a lot of guns and artillery.

Sonom Cering is the leader of this Han navy, and he is also the governor and Huntaiji of the Fuhai Dudu Mansion conferred by the Ming Dynasty.

"What do the Junggar people want?"

Shi Jianhan, Chief of the Fuhai Governor's Mansion, and Shi Zhu Cunwu, Chief of the Navy, reloaded the finished shotgun with gunpowder and lead bullets, and said calmly, "The Junggar people either want to play tricks to destroy the country, or they want to get behind Turpan Khan. To attack, whichever it is, we cannot ignore it."

Zhu Cunwu belonged to the clan of the Qin Dynasty, and was originally named King Yongshou. Later, after the reform of the clan system, Zhu Cunwu was dismissed from the rank. Like many clan clans, he joined the army after the reform of the clan system and participated in the Northern Expedition. Well done.

Like Zhu Shifu who was the chief historian in Beiting Governor's Mansion, Zhu Cunwu was the chief historian in Fuhai Governor's Mansion. He also won the lifelong title of Marquis of Yongshou for his military exploits.

In terms of fame, Zhu Cunwu is not as good as Zhu Shifu, but in terms of loyalty to the court and desire for fame, they are the same.

After the bullets were loaded, he raised his gun and fired, hitting a shot from dozens of steps away.

"Then what does the teacher think we should do?" Sonomu Celing was a young man, and his father was actually still very young.

Heshuo Qihan is not enough in terms of qualifications and prestige. If it weren't for Daming's leadership and the support of Heshuote and Jianlute, he would not be able to become Durbert's Khan, and even Durbert would no longer exist.

For this clan member sent by the Great Heavenly Son, Sonomu Cering directly apprenticed to him.

"Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while. Whether it is public or private, the Junggars are not allowed to pass here. We don't know whether he is just taking a detour to fight Turpan Khan or is coming to attack us.

What's more, the Oirat-Fengtian Law Code has already delineated the boundary line, and it is agreed not to cross the line.Junggar neither requested a report from the imperial court in advance, nor informed us in advance, and now suddenly violated the boundary, we must stop it.

Don't you forget how the Junggars almost annexed Durbert and Huit before. "

"Maybe they really just borrowed a way to fight Turpan Khan?"

Zhu Cunwu continued to load ammunition. This flintlock gun was very advanced, but it also had many shortcomings. It had a long range, a high aim, and was not afraid of the wind.As a veteran of the Northern Expedition, Zhu Cunwu not only wrote good calligraphy and paintings, but also was proficient in bows and horses, accurate firearms, and even good at artillery.

His blunderbuss accuracy surpassed that of most musketeers, such ability is all due to the fact that he shoots too much.

"Who canonized Turpan Khan? Son of Heaven, Turpan Khan is also part of Moxi Mongolia. Now he is a vassal of Ming Dynasty, and Junggar wants to attack. This is not right."

"Today Junggar dares to defy the imperial decree to attack Turpan, and tomorrow it may defy the imperial decree to destroy Durbert. The saint has helped Durbert recover and helped you establish a khanate, but if you are not careful, you will be annexed by Junggar , do you still expect the imperial court to help you again?"

"Let's send troops, Han Haijun has been practicing for so long, it's time for the actual combat test on the battlefield."

Sonom Cering hesitated a bit.

Zhu Cunwu said bluntly: "Huntai Jimo must forget how Durbert survived. Without the support of Ming Dynasty, you would not be able to resist the Junggar people. Even if your father and son did not have the support of the imperial court, Heshuo Qihan would not be able to become Durbert. Burt's Khan, you can't be the governor, Duerbot and those Taijis, you father and son can't suppress the commander at all."

This awakening is in place.

······
On the banks of the Gulun River, Bagabandi led 5000 Junggar forwards along the river, one man and three horses.

When it was dark, the men and horses camped by the river to rest.

Simple small tents were set up one after another, horses were driven to graze outside the camp, soldiers were fetching water from the river, and some people lit fires.

Someone cooks, someone sharpens a sword, someone checks a bowstring, and someone else sings.

Junggar people are very relaxed.

In the middle of the night, the noise stopped, and the exhaustion of marching during the day caused most Junggar soldiers to fall into a deep sleep. Only some night watchmen were on duty.

The Three Thousand Han Navy approached quietly.

Under the starry sky, when the campfire was fired, there was silence.

A sharp arrow pierced the night sky, and accurately shot down a dozing Junggar camp guard, and more arrows shot down several people beside him.

Han Navy Commander Shi Zhu Cunwu personally led a team of attacking strikers at night, touched the camp, and after killing several defenders with bows and crossbows, they began to sneak into the camp.

Zhu Cunwu led the people directly to the largest tent, which was the tent of Bagabandi, and the forward leader was also soundly asleep.

A few crossbow arrows shot down the guards in front of the tent. They stepped forward to support the corpse of the soldier who was about to fall, and then gently opened the tent.

Zhu Cunwu and others sneaked in.

A dagger was held to his throat, and the other hand was over his mouth.

The other Yebushou pressed their hands and feet.

Bagapandi woke up suddenly, seeing the scene in front of him almost lost his soul, he struggled desperately, but was pressed tightly.

Zhu Cunwu picked up the bayonet and cut his skin, warm blood flowed out.

"Don't shout, are you the Pakabandi?"

Bagapandi gradually calmed down. The person opposite spoke Mongolian, but he could tell that the person was not Mongolian.

He nodded.

Zhu Cunwu said again: "Very good." Then he stopped talking, and directly punched him to death, "Tied up, remember to gag, let's go."

He didn't kill Batur's nephew, but took him captive.

After a quick search in the tent, they began to evacuate.

The other Yebushou also started to take things out of their backpacks.

Some people took out oil bags, some took out gunpowder, and some people started to take out the Thunderbolt. Although this thing was not very lethal, it was more powerful than ordinary firecrackers, and they also brought a lot of firecrackers.

Sprinkle with oil and light the fire.

Sprinkle gunpowder, light thunder, light firecrackers.

Suddenly, violent explosions resounded through the camp, and under the night sky, tents in the camp also started to catch fire, lighting up the night sky.

Not far outside the camp, Sonomu Celing had been waiting anxiously on his horse. When he heard the loud noise and the bright lights of the sparks, he excitedly raised his spear and shouted, " Come with me, kill!"

Three thousand vast sea cavalry attacked swiftly, breaking through the night.

There was great chaos in the Junggar camp, and the sleeping Junggar soldiers didn't even have time to put on their clothes and armor, so they could only get out of the camp in a panic and look around. In a panic, they couldn't even find a horse.

A Hanhai officer shouted loudly, "Anyone who dares to offend me will be punished even if he is far away!" The cavalry general from the Dragon Cavalry Battalion of the Royal Cavalry Academy in the Imperial Capital of the Ming Dynasty roared like thunder, followed by a large group of Durberts, The vast sea cavalry, such as the Huites, Giligis, and Uyghurs, all shouted in the crappy Ming and Beijing Mandarin, "Even if you are far away, you will be killed!"

"Although it is far away, it must be a pig!"

"Suiyuan is better than a pig!"

"..."

The horse stepped on the company battalion, and the [-] Han navy attacked the [-] Junggar forwards at night. It was the night fire that lit up half the sky, and blood stained the water of the Ulungu River.
