Rise of the 1630s South America

Chapter 2353 Wuerge

"Uslen is here." Yiqi galloped over, roaring loudly with a trembling voice.

"Wusileng is here! Run!" "Men, gather up and stand up for a while, otherwise no one will be able to escape!" "Wuslen is coming again? This devil, the Buddha will not spare you!"

Looking from the distant sky, the originally peaceful and orderly yurt on the ground suddenly fell into chaos, perhaps with a little fear.The shepherds got on their horses and took the time to gather your cattle and sheep, while the women and children began to pack up their belongings.Daily necessities such as iron pots, salt tea and daily necessities are essential to them, and they are also very important possessions, so they must be brought with them.

Mobei Mongolia is not as rich as Monan Mongolia!Monan Mongolia has been trading with the mainland for a long time, and the Qing court also rewarded some property from time to time, so the overall level of wealth is very high. After all, they are a vassal of "My Qing Dynasty", and they are the marriage partner of the Aixinjueluo family. It is a policy of integrating Manchu and Mongolia The key, naturally, is to hold it high.

In contrast, the relationship between Mobei and Mongolia is a bit estranged.There are only limited trade ties between them and the Qing court. Strictly speaking, they are independent countries-well, it may be a bit exaggerated to say that the country belongs to the Tuxietu Khan, Chechen Khan, and Zasaktu Khan. Loose union——If Galdan of Moxi Mongolia hadn't brazenly moved eastward, invaded the Khalkha Mongolian tribes, and beaten them to pieces, these three Mongolian tribes would not have rushed south and took refuge in the Qing Dynasty.

That is to say, the tribes of Mobei Mongolia are poor enough to vote, and they are completely different from those of Monan Mongolia. Naturally, the treatment cannot be the same.The Khalkha Mongolian tribes in the south are all like this, and the Mongols who stayed on the Mobei grassland at the beginning are even worse. It is impossible for them to receive a penny of financial assistance from the Qing court.Even if Galdan has been wiped out now, and the Qing court has opened up the road to Mobei Mongolia, there will be no materials going north.

The only ones who can go north may be the Khalkha Mongolian tribes with 10,000+ tents who fled south.After the Qing government supplied them with some weapons and ammunition, they urged them to go north as soon as possible and return to the Mobei grassland.For this reason, Kangxi also dispatched thousands of Eight Banners cavalry to guard (supervise) them back home, allowing them to gather the tribes scattered on the grassland as soon as possible and restore the local ruling order.

The Qing court has heard that the people of the Eastern Kingdom gathered a group of Mongolian scum, including Barhu people, Buryats, and Khalkhas. In the power vacuum formed after fleeing, they marched westward and conquered the three herdsmen who remained there.These people are well-equipped, and their methods are fierce, and those who dare to disobey will be punished with thunder!Since crossing the Ergun River, I don't know how many people have been killed!

Kangxi was a little anxious when he heard the news.Mobei Mongolia was originally sandwiched between Russia and the Qing Dynasty, and both sides are trying to win over.It's just that because the Russians' methods are blunt and rude, and their cultural thinking is a little bit worse, Mobei Mongolia has been leaning towards the Qing Dynasty for many years.The Qing Dynasty has also supported some weapons many times in history, so that Mobei Mongolia—mainly the Tuxietu Khan—has enough courage to fight the Russians.Their abacus is actually very understandable, that is, let Mobei Mongolia fight with the Russians, and then have to rely more and more on the Qing court. At this time, they will use some means of division and wooing, and they can slowly gather the various ministries of Mobei Mongolia. , becoming a de facto vassal state of the Qing court, and no longer the current independent state status.

Galdan's invasion hastened this process.The three Mongolian tribes of Khalkha fled south in a hurry and had to bow their knees to the Qing court. Kangxi also took advantage of the opportunity to confer the titles of three Mongolian nobles, Chechen Khan, Tuxietu Khan, and Zasaktu Khan, and set the titles of monarchs and ministers.After several years of fierce fighting, the power of Galdan has been wiped out, and the three Mongolian tribes of Khalkha can almost return to the original place of the Mobei grassland. In this way, the territory of the Qing Dynasty can be greatly expanded, and the Mobei grassland will also It can be included in the bag and borders many cities under the control of the Russians.

However, now it seems that something unexpected happened, that is, the three tribes of Khalkha Mongolia may have a hard time returning home.Those "no-name Mongolians" gathered by the Dongguo people were also too fast. Taking advantage of the favorable opportunity of the Qing Dynasty and Galdan war, they slowly eroded the territory of the entire Chechen Khan tribe, which not only greatly enriched the Mongolian forces under its banner , At the same time, it also greatly expanded the influence of the East Coast people on the grassland.

Now, after full preparations, the Dongguo people have begun to march on the traditional pasture land of the Tuxietu Khan tribe.A cavalry regiment of Jirimutu Khan's fastest-moving department was not far from Urge, Tuxie Tuhan's base camp, and it shocked the entire Mobei grassland for a while.

The cavalry regiment currently has more than [-] cavalry, and it is a well-equipped cavalry team under the Mongolian Self-Defense Army.Every soldier is equipped with armor, round shield, saber, bow and arrow, short-barreled rifle (riding gun), hand-throwing bombs, and other military supplies as much as possible. The officers have pistols, binoculars, and sabers. A copy of the configuration.Therefore, under the leadership of the head of the regiment, Uslen, the regiment set off from the territory of the Chechen Khan tribe, marched westward all the way, fighting and killing, and supported the war with war, and defeated a total of about [-] Tushetu Khan tribes. The cavalry (including shepherds) plundered a large number of cattle and sheep, horses, arrows and property, and became a force on the grassland that made people change.

Today, Uslen led his troops to raid around Wuerge again.After several months of fighting, although the faces of more than a thousand riders in the regiment were a little tired, they were still vigorous and experienced in fighting. Whoever intercepted and killed the fleeing messengers would attack the assembled enemies Shepherds, who are going to attack and kill the old, weak, women and children in the rear to shake the enemy's morale, divide the work in a short period of time, and then execute them separately, with extremely high efficiency.

The head of the regiment, Wu Sleng, led more than [-] cavalry to meet the enemy head-on.Now that the battle has been fought, the muskets and ammunition they brought out have basically been exhausted, many bowstrings have been pulled, and countless arrows have been consumed.The difference is that the former is not easy to supplement on the Mobei grassland (most of them are taken away by the sweat), but the latter two can supplement one or two, so they will meet the enemy with cold weapons, and they are not equipped with equipment. Not crushing.

But killing experienced professional soldiers, even with wooden sticks, can defeat these loose herdsmen.No, under the leadership of Uslen, more than [-] riders first accelerated slowly, and then charged suddenly, smashing the hundreds of Mongolian herdsmen who had gathered in a hurry.Afterwards, there was no suspense to reap the results, and almost no one escaped from this pasture.

Wuslen's subordinates first searched for goods among the yurts, and then gathered women and children, intending to detain them to the large army that was slowly coming from the east.On the grasslands, the fate of women and children is often much better than that of adult men.When a tribe overruns a rival tribe, adult men may die, but women and children are often distributed as trophies and become the property of the new conqueror.The four tribes of Mongolia under the control of the people on the east bank also have this custom. If a tribe wants to grow stronger, women and children are very important resources.As for how many people this woman has been with before, and whether the child is her own, does that matter?It doesn't matter at all!

"Wuslen, move quickly. The cavalry regiment in the north also moves very quickly. If we don't pay attention, we will be snatched to the front. Wuerge's side is very empty, there are not many soldiers, If we let them take it, our work will be in vain." A pure white black water horse galloped over, and a consultant in the uniform of the East Coast Army whispered: "Although there is nothing left in Wuerge now. , but it has great political significance, and Shangfeng also attaches great importance to these, so don't be careless."

Wu Silen nodded when he heard the words, and the emotions that had just been high because of the victory in the battle disappeared immediately.The annexation of the land of the Tushetu Khan tribe is already an established policy of the four tribes of Eastern Mongolia, which cannot be changed, and no one can change it.Urge is the ruling center of the Tuxietu Khan tribe——Considering the powerful strength of the Tuxietu Khan tribe and its influence in the three tribes of Khalkha Mongolia, Urge can almost be called the center of the entire Mobei Mongolia. Political center—has been coveted by people from the east coast all the time, wanting to seize it quickly.

According to the plan of the newly appointed captain of the Manchurian and Mongolian pioneering team, Chief Wei Wendu, Wuerge must be captured, and he also plans to build a large-scale construction project in this place to build a town that is one of the best on the Mobei grassland.The town was named Kulun by Chief Wei, and it will be managed by the people from the east bank in the future, which is also in line with the tacit understanding formed between them and the four Mongolians, that is, the town is controlled by the people from the east bank, and the grasslands are managed by the Mongols.

In the future, Kulun City will not only become the ruling center of the people on the east bank on the grassland, but also become a trade distribution center and a trade center for exploiting the Mongols.In addition, religious figures will also be "invited" into Kulun City in order to strengthen management.The Mongols are very superstitious. Religious people have a lot of power. They have pastures, temples, cattle and sheep, and servants. If they do things secretly, the cost of ruling the people on the east coast will be very high, and there may even be serious problems. The problem is that the Living Buddha is still in the Monan Grassland. If he goes north in the future, the people on the east bank will still have a headache. How to deal with the Living Buddha, Wei Wendu himself has not yet figured it out.

"Staff Lin, don't worry, we will definitely take the lead." Wu Sleng said confidently: "But now everyone is a little tired, so let's rest for two or three days. We have been fighting for several months. Wait until we have enough rest." Now, let's go to Urg. I heard that the nobles there have almost run away. I only need [-] cavalry to conquer Urg. Tushetuhan, hehe, since I lost my family property and ran away in a hurry , you must be prepared to have your belongings taken away by others.”

Participating in a funeral in the countryside was really tiring. I only slept for 4 hours last night. I had a lot of things to do today, so I wrote a chapter in a hurry.Back to Shanghai tomorrow afternoon.
