Chapter 278: Marching East (1)

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Gushi Khan's 80,000-strong army entered Lingzang, the residence of King Zanshan, and suddenly heard a burst of singing.

"Great Khan, Batur of the Mongols. The forty-four Tengger gods in our east, the fifty-five Tengger gods in our west, and the three Tengger gods in our north...are protecting you."
Wearing a venetian skirt, a tall pointed hat, and holding a bell, the King of Praise was singing a hymn while greeting him respectfully.

The Lingzang area, like the Jiarong people, believes in Bon religion. In terms of belief, King Zanshan is more inclined to the Jiarong people. However, he is not only an eminent monk, but also a chieftain. As a chieftain, he naturally has to protect the lives of his people.

Safety considerations. He knew that with his more than a thousand soldiers, he would never be able to withstand Gushi Khan's iron hoof, so he had surrendered to Gushi Khan many years ago.

Gushi Khan was an experienced politician and did not force King Zanshan to convert to the Gelug religion. He only needed to pay taxes. Things were getting along harmoniously over the years. However, the power of the Gelug religion still penetrated into the spiritual treasure trove, and people wearing black clothes could be seen everywhere.

Monks in black hats and monks in yellow hats walk together on the street.

"King Praise for your hard work," Gushi Khan praised with a smile. He has always treated these local powerful groups with honors and honors.

"It is a blessing for a young monk to serve the Great Khan. Please, Great Khan!"

After entering Lingzang, Gushi Khan immediately summoned his sons to discuss the attack on the Jiarong people.

He was very lucky and had ten good sons, all of whom were good at fighting. The eldest son Dayan Eqir, the second son Omubu, the third son Dalantai, the fourth son Ayush, the fifth son Yilduzi, and more than six sons

Erji, the seventh son Hulumushi, the eighth son Gonbu Chahui, the ninth son Sanggarza, and the tenth son Dashibatur.

The old father has already made arrangements for the future of his sons: each of the sons will have his own Omuqi (nomadic territory), let the eldest son inherit the Khanate in Tibet, seal the fourth son Ayush in the Alxa area, and the other eight sons

The fiefdom surrounds Qinghai Lake, hence the name Qinghai Batai Ji.

In order to strengthen the power of the Khan, Gushi Khan decided to divide Qinghai into left and right wings: Xining-Dongker Temple-Riyue Mountain-Northeast Bank of Qinghai Lake-North Bank-Blongir River line north of the left wing and south of the right wing

.The left wing is Dayan, Omubu, Ayush, and Dalantai. The eldest son Dayan, while inheriting the Tibetan Khanate, also leads the left wing chief; the right wing is Yilduzi, Dorji, Hulumush, and Gun.

Buchahun, Sanggarza, Dashbatur, and the sixth son Dorji are appointed as the right wing commanders.

Of course, because the Dayan people are in northern Tibet, the person who actually manages Qinghai is Liu Zi Dorji.

"You have organized your troops and horses, and tomorrow you will follow me to capture Luhuo, Daowu, Danba, Xiaojin, Dajianlu and other places." Gushi Khan fell in love with Muping chieftain Jianshennanha and Yutong chieftain Dan.

Zhazhaba is the territory of Bu'er Jixi, the chieftain of Zanla (Xiao Jinchuan). Among the eight tribes of Jiarong, the territories of these chieftains are rich, and their soldiers and horses are not strong. They are the soft persimmons among the eight tribes, and they are easy to pinch.
"My father Khan and my sons thought we should attack the Zagu tribe that occupied Aba first." Dorji, the sixth son, had a different view.

"Go to Aba first? This area has high mountains and rivers, and the terrain is difficult. Sang Jiepeng in the Zagu Valley is brave and good at fighting, but it is not easy to fight. Besides, the people in Aba are poor. Even if we conquer it, there will be no benefit." Gushi Khan

Still old-fashioned, taking looting as the first goal of the war.

"Father Khan, do you want to fight for the spoils of war, or do you want to conquer Jiarong Babu permanently?"

"Of course we want to conquer the Jiarong people permanently."

Dorji said: "'To shoot a man first shoot a horse, to capture a thief first capture the king', the Zagu tribe has the strongest soldiers and horses among the Jiarong tribe, and Sang Jiepeng is the leader of the Jiarong tribe. As long as they are defeated

The Zagu tribe and other Jiarong tribes must be timid and obey your orders obediently."

"Yeah", Gushi Khan nodded.

"The chieftain of Muping, Jiancan Nanha, was also the consolation envoy of Dong Bu Han and Hu Xuan of the Ming Dynasty; the chieftain of Yutong, Dan Zakba, was the consolation envoy of Changhe West, Yutong Ningyuan, the title of the Ming Dynasty. Beating them would easily cause the Ming Dynasty to suffer

Intervention, Qinghai-Tibet has been initially decided, and it is not appropriate to fight a big battle at this time. I think it is better to eliminate Sang Jiepeng first, and then lure these chieftains to surrender. Seeing that Sang Jiepeng has been destroyed, they will not dare to fight with me. In this way, it can be

The territory will be gained without any loss of blood."

"Good", Gushi Khan praised.

"I heard that Na Sang Jiepeng relied on his military strength and often bullied Jianshen Nanha, Danhan Zakba and others. If he beat Sang Jiepeng, other chieftains might not be able to save him; but if he beat other chieftains, Sang Jiepeng would think he was a hero.

He will definitely come to the rescue. Therefore, we should first make friends and make friends.

Gushi Khan laughed loudly after hearing this. He was really relieved. I and the Shuote Khanate have successors! In the future, after the death of this Khan, his eldest son Dayan will succeed him, and his sixth son Dorji will assist him. Khan will definitely be able to succeed.

The country continues to prosper.

"Listen to what Lao Liu said. You are really wise. Just do what he said. Dayan, Omubu and you two will lead 20,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard and capture Seda City. Then we will lead the way to Ben Khan.

Go east and capture Rangtang, Banma, and Aba. Within three months, this Khan will see Zagu City!"

"My sons and ministers take orders."

Seda City is the territory established by Tusi Chuosijia. The Chuosijia tribe belongs to the Dajin tribe among the eight Jiarong tribes, and its territory is in the Seda and Xiangtang areas.

Among the dozens of chieftains in Jiarong Babu, Chuosijia is in the middle of the pack, although not as powerful as Zagu chieftain Sang Jiepeng, Muping chieftain Jianshennanha, and Yutong (Mingzheng) chieftain Danhen Zhazhaba.

These three largest chieftains are much more powerful than some of the smaller chieftains. They have 7,000 households and 4,000 armored men.

Hearing that the Mongols were coming, Zili was not afraid and ordered to recruit soldiers.

Jiarong warriors wearing fox fur hats, mink-trimmed Pulu or woolen Chuba, with long knives on their waists, amulets, long and short guns, and bows and arrows on their backs began to gather in Seda City.
"The legal domain is Weizang, the horse domain is Amdo, and the human domain is Kangba." Among the three major snow areas, the Kangba Snow Area (including Garze, Aba, Sichuan, Qamdo, Tibet, Diqing, Yunnan, Goluo, Qinghai, Yushu and other places) is based on human

Famous. "The men of Kangding, the women of Danba". Jiarong men have a clear sense of grudges and grievances, are strong and brave, and advocate the sword and horse; Jiarong women are indescribably charming.

Jiarong people are not afraid of death in war!

Zili quickly recruited 4,000 Jiarong warriors and fought with 20,000 Mongolian vanguards outside Seda City.

Gushi Khan's eldest son, Dayan Eqil, was in his forties and was a well-known brave general in the Heshuote tribe. He made great contributions during the expedition to Kazakhstan with Gushi Khan. Seeing that there were not many Jiarong soldiers, he immediately ordered

Charge.

20,000 Mongolian horses rushed towards 4,000 Tibetan horses. The Mongolian horses were taller and more powerful than the Tibetan horses. They were more numerous and quickly dispersed the Jiarong cavalry.

The Kejiarong people are very brave. Although they refused to escape, they still resisted desperately.

Dayan Eqil frowned and called his son Peng Suke, "Take your men and cut off the Jiarong people's flags."

Peng Suke, who was in his early twenties and was also a famous warrior in the Heshuo Special Tribe, heard the words and led 500 soldiers to attack Zili's general's flag.

"Da da da", the horse's hooves are galloping.

"Fire cannons and shoot them to death," Zili ordered. During the trade with the Ming Dynasty, the Jiarong people obtained some firearms, but the number was not large.

"Bang bang bang!"

"咴聿聿", "咴聿聿"??

Horses kept falling down.

Peng Suke lowered his body and rode his horse at a gallop. His horse was good and he quickly broke into Zili's army.

"Pfft", Peng Suke's riding horse stabbed a gunman. He flipped his wrist and pulled out the long horse diagonally, stabbing another one.

"Aw", "Aw", "Aw"??

Seeing how brave the little prince was, his subordinates were all inspired, and with high fighting spirit, they rushed towards Zili with a strange roar.

Seeing this, Zi Li had no choice but to retreat.

Peng Suke rushed to the Jiarong people's general flag and cut it with a knife. "Haorui" (a cheer in Mongolian, equivalent to "long live"), "Haorui", "Haorui"?? The cheers were deafening.<

/p>

Zili suffered a defeat and did not dare to hold on to Seda City. He retreated to Rangtang City and quickly sent people to ask for help from the chief leader of the Jiarong people, Zagu chieftain Sang Jiefen.

The Mongolian "Sulu Ding" was erected on the head of Seda City. This military flag is divided into two colors: black and white. Black symbolizes war and strength, white symbolizes peace and authority, represents the God of War, represents Genghis Khan, and represents war.

The invincible Mongolian army,

Looking at the "Sulu ingot" fluttering in the wind, Dayan Eqil showed a smile and said to his subordinates: "The horse flies quickly to report to the Khan that our army has conquered Seda City!"
