Daming iron-blooded Chief Assistant

Chapter 165 Recovering Hami
At the same time as the western front began to move, all the troops on the eastern front were also in place.

Since taking Guihua City, the remaining Tumed tribes have moved eastward one after another.Most of them took refuge in Lin Danhan, and some went to Mobei to join the Khalkha tribe.

In addition to continuing to sweep the grasslands and capture prisoners, the task on the Eastern Front this time is to continue to move the defense line forward and restore the guards of Yunchuan Guard, Zhenlu Guard, Yulin Guard, and Xuande Guard.Advance the defense line to the Datong line.

Also in mid-June, Boren led his troops to Xuandewei first, and began to rebuild Xuandewei.

On the fifth day after Boren led his troops to Xuandewei, Lin Danhan, who was in the capital Chahanhot, received the news that the Ming army was dispatched.

Lin Danhan, who has always wanted to restore Genghis Khan's hegemony, naturally cannot tolerate the actions of the Ming army.

However, since the founding of the country, the wild boar skin has not conquered Shenyang and Liaoyang like in the previous life, but the wild boar skin has been wooing the Horqin tribe with the power of Sarhu's victory.

As the wild boar skin has not been able to conquer, Tieling and Kaiyuan.He could only turn his troops to North Korea, and after forcing the court to surrender, he set his sights on the Mongolian tribes in the Monan Grassland.

At first, they entered into a marriage alliance with the Horqin tribe. At this time, the Horqin tribe had already surrendered to the wild boar skin semi-openly, which greatly threatened Lin Danhan's Chahar tribe.

After learning that the Ming army began to rebuild Xuandewei, Lin Danhan deliberately organized an army to stop the Ming army.He was also worried that the wild boar skin would take this opportunity to completely subdue the Horqin tribe, and then attack his Chahar tribe.

After thinking about it for two days, Lin Danhan felt that it would be best to let the Ming army rebuild Xuandewei. After all, Xuandewei was more than 1000 miles away from him, and the wild boar skin was already close at hand.

After relocating all the tribes near Xuandewei to the east of Daqing Mountain, they sent envoys to question the Ming court, threatening to detain the Ming court if they did not withdraw their troops.

On the one hand, they sent a letter to the Khalkha tribe in Mobei, promising to recognize their rule over Guihua City, and hoped that they could send troops to fight against the Ming army.

After Boren learned that Lin Dan Khan hadn't dispatched, he left two cavalry brigades and one infantry brigade to sweep around.He returned to Guihua City with three cavalry brigades.

After resting for five days, they began to march towards the Mobei grassland, attacking the Khalkha tribe occupying the Mobei grassland.

Boren has always believed that the best defense is offense.Because Lin Danhan didn't want Jiannu to take advantage of it, he took advantage of the war between the two sides to annex other tribes.

Since he couldn't beat Lin Danhan, he always wanted to follow the example of his predecessors who sealed the wolf and lived in Xuxu, so he set his target on the Khalkha tribe.

In late June, with three cavalry brigades, Boren entered the Mobei Grassland and swept away all the way. After capturing nearly ten thousand Tartars, countless cattle and sheep, and horses, he returned to Guihua City.

After resting for another five days, they sent troops to Mobei again, went deep into the Mobei grassland for [-] miles, captured [-] prisoners and returned to Guihua City.

The two attacks made Khalkha's various ministries panic, and they had no choice but to gather troops and prepare to intercept the Ming army's attack.

After returning to Guihua City, Boren did not attack here, and attacked in one direction twice in a row, the Tartars must have been prepared.

Mobei is so big, Boren changed the direction and took the cavalry brigade to Jiuyuan City. From Jiuyuan City, he entered the Mobei Grassland and continued to sweep the Tartar tribes.After capturing tens of thousands of Tartar captives, he returned to Jiuyuan City.

After the troops of the Khalkha tribe flew into the air, facing thousands of miles of contact lines, they were incompetent and could only shrink the tribe's troops and migrate towards the fishing sea.

Regardless of whether it is a plateau or a grassland, the population is small. Under the continuous sweep of the Legislative Army, a large number of no-man's land soon appeared, so that bison herds appeared on the grassland.

In July, after accumulating enough supplies, Liang Chen led his troops to occupy Dunhuang, also known as Shazhouwei.

At this time, the Turpan Khanate also realized that the Ming army wanted to subdue Hamiwei. Due to the strength of the Ming army and the chaos in the country, it abandoned Hami after relocating the population of various ethnic groups in the Hami area.

After Liangchen learned that the enemy had abandoned Hami, he did not rush to march, but continued to sweep the surrounding areas, and did not send troops to occupy Hami until all the surrounding five hundred miles were turned into no-man's land.

Then the city was rebuilt in Hami, and materials were continuously transported to Hami to prepare for the next battle.

He also announced to the various ministries in the Western Regions that the Ming Dynasty would recover Hami, requiring all ethnic groups to pay tribute to cattle and sheep, and establish a mutual market in Hamiwei for all ethnic groups to trade, so as to divide the power of the Turpan Khanate.

For a while, all ethnic groups in the Western Regions sent people to Hami to trade with merchants of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, these merchants were from the Mashi group in Qingjian County, and soon Hamiwei became prosperous.

Abdulatifu Khan of the Yarkand Khanate, took advantage of Daming to recover Hami, threatened the Turpan area, led [-] troops into Turpan, and reunified the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.

Facing Hami occupied by the Ming army, Abdulatifu Khan decided to blockade Hami and cut off the supply of the Ming army, intending to trap the Ming army to death.

However, after this period of trade, the people in the investigation department had already bought the nobles of the former Turpan Khanate. They were dissatisfied with the annexation of the Yarkand Khanate and leaked Abdulatif Khan's battle plan.

After getting the information, the good minister pretended to have insufficient supplies and withdrew from Hami. After Abdulatif Khan's [-] troops occupied Hami, he turned around and launched a night attack, encircling and annihilating Abdulatif Khan's [-] troops in Hami.

Abdulatifu Khan himself was also killed in the rebellion. After destroying the army of the Yarkand Khanate, he sent troops to attack Turpan and returned to Hami after capturing a large number of enemy troops.

In the days that followed, Liangchen continued to send troops to attack the Mughal tribe, but turned a blind eye to the soldiers and civilians of other tribes, and invited them to Hami for business.

Mughal, who was originally the ruler, became a mouse that everyone shouted and beat. After losing [-] main forces, Mughal's rule over the Western Regions was completely shaken.

At this time, the Oala tribe north of the Tianshan Mountains took the opportunity to start going south, intending to replace the rule of the Mughals.In fact, they are all Mongolians, but they believe in different religions.

The famous Ge Erdan in his previous life came from the Junggar tribe of the Wala tribe.

At this time, the Oala tribe was also called the Oirat Alliance, and it was divided into Heshuote, Turhut, Junggar, and Durbert. The four alliances are the most powerful Heshuote now. .

After the Eastern Chagatai Khanate could no longer threaten Hami, Liang Chen returned to Jiayuguan in order to obtain more prisoners and make up for the loss of personnel caused by the construction of the railway.

It began to send troops deep into the plateau area, and launched a devastating plunder on the populated areas on the plateau.

No matter what ethnicity they are, as long as they are not Han Chinese, they will be arrested and taken away, and then the houses will be burned down, and the cattle, sheep and livestock will be used as military food.

With the continuous deepening, the cavalry of the Legislative Army even hit Qamdo and plundered the place.
