Alimari, where Mahemu Khan Ordo of the Chagatai Khanate was originally located in the Western Regions, has now been renamed the Western Capital City by Liu Jin.
The place of clouds.
In Yang Yun's office, Yang Yun was reading a piece of news from various places, frowning.
"The Western Region and the Hezhong area are really too vast. It would be very difficult to maintain a garrison of 100,000 troops, let alone be responsible for clearing out the remnants of the Oara tribe north of the Altai Mountains in the north."
Yang Yun looked at the map of the Western Region and the Hezhong area, and always felt that his military strength was too small.
The area of the Western Region and the Hezhong Region is really too large. The Western Region alone is already very large and requires garrison troops in many places, not to mention that there is also a Hezhong Region. This gives him, the commander-in-chief of the Western Region and the Hezhong Region, a headache.
Both the Western Region and the Hezhong region gave him a headache.
In the Western Regions, because of the comprehensive Ming Dynasty policy formulated by Liu Jin, all tribes in the Western Regions must be fully Ming Dynasty, change their surnames to Han people, adopt the Han people, and learn the ways of Confucius and Mencius.
Those who were obedient were naturally more obedient and obediently followed the requirements of the Ming Dynasty and cooperated with officials from various places to implement the Ming Dynasty's policies. However, there were still some tribes that were unwilling to accept the comprehensive Ming policy. These tribes killed the officials appointed by the imperial court.
officer, and at the same time played a hide-and-seek game with the Ming army.
This made Yang Yun tired of clearing out these disobedient tribes. At the same time, there had been many horse bandits and bandits in the Western Regions since ancient times. In order to ensure the trade routes and safety of the Western Regions, they had to clear out the horse bandits and bandits, which also involved some troops.
Coupled with the need to clean up the remnants of Oala, the affairs of the Western Regions alone gave Yang Yun a headache.
Now things are happening again in the Hezhong area.
He transferred some troops from the Hezhong area to the Western Region to participate in the war. As a result, the people around him began to look at the Hezhong area with covetousness.
"Longtou Town, Longwei Town, Longxu Town, Fengwei Town, and Fengyan Town have all been attacked by the enemy. Judging from the current situation, the Kazakh Khanate, Timur Khanate, and Shaibani Khanate
The Great Khanate and some tribes have joined forces to act."
"There are only 20,000 cavalry in the Hezhong area. Once the enemy breaks through the town, the casualties will be very heavy. These people have made it clear that they want to drive our Ming Dynasty out of the Hezhong area."
Yang Yun looked at the pieces of information coming from the Hezhong area, and then looked at the map of the Hezhong area, and he fell into deep thought.
Liu Jin has repeatedly emphasized the importance of the Hezhong area. This is the bridgehead for the Ming Dynasty to attack Central Asia and Europe, and it must not be missed.
The immigrants who have moved to the Hezhong area are what the imperial court attaches most importance to now. They want money for money, food for food, and weapons for weapons, hoping that they can gain a foothold in the Hezhong area.
If something were to happen, he, the Duke of Australia, would not be able to bear the burden.
"Alas~"
"Your Majesty is in poor health now and has intestinal carbuncle. He has handed over state affairs to the prince and the princes in the court. In such a special period, the prince and the princes in the court may give priority to stability and may not continue to mobilize troops.
Come and support the Western Region and Hezhong area."
"This means that I can only rely on the 100,000 troops and horses in hand to maintain the current situation. It seems that I can only temporarily give up the pursuit of the remnants of Oara and allocate some troops to the Hezhong area."
"If I have tens of thousands more cavalry in my hand, I will kill them all with blood this time. Liu Gong is right, the best way to deal with jackals, tigers and leopards is to kill them all."
Yang Yun sighed softly.
He had received news from the capital that Emperor Hongzhi had intestinal carbuncle and was concentrating on recuperating and preparing for treatment. At this critical moment, such a thing happened, which made him feel helpless.
"Report~"
At this time, someone hurriedly walked in and handed a decree from the capital into Yang Yun's hands.
"Haha, great!"
Yang Yun read it carefully, and suddenly he couldn't help laughing happily.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent fifty thousand more cavalry to our Western Region and Hezhong area. Now we will have plenty of money."
It turns out that the order just received was Zhu Houzhao's order to increase troops, sending an additional 50,000 cavalry troops to the Western Regions and the Hezhong area, asking Yang Yun to ensure the safety of the Hezhong area, and at the same time give the enemy a severe blow and teach him a lesson.
The attitude is very clear and the wording is very harsh, which is enough to show Zhu Houzhao's strong style in external affairs.
"The arrival of fifty thousand cavalrymen from the Grassland Province to the Western Regions is estimated to be only a few days later than this decree."
"I have to make good arrangements. Since you have taken the initiative to provoke our Ming Dynasty, don't blame me for being cruel."
Yang Yun looked at the map and studied it carefully.
"Come here, summon the highest combat meeting and summon the generals of all armies to come to the meeting."
Soon, Yang Yun had a rough arrangement and battle plan.
…
A few days later, on the Great Yuzi Grassland where the Kazakh Khanate meets the Western Regions, the vast grassland is covered with blue sky and white clouds. It is midsummer, with lush pasture and abundant water and grass. Groups of cattle and sheep on the grassland are enjoying the summer sunshine and leisurely.
Sweet pasture.
The water from the Ili River in the Western Regions nourishes this land, making it one of the most important pastures of the Kazakh Khanate. It is one of the three major grasslands alongside the Kipchak Grassland and the Kazakh Grassland.
Summer is considered the best season for herdsmen, with abundant water and grass, herds of cattle, sheep and horses, plus an increasing number of lambs, foals, etc., which always makes people full of hope.
However, a large-scale cavalry was galloping on the grassland, with the bright yellow dragon flag fluttering in the wind. Under the sunlight, the armor reflected bright light, which was bright and very dazzling.
The earth was constantly shaking, and the rumble of horse hooves disturbed the cattle and sheep grazing, as well as the herdsmen grazing.
"Daming people!"
"They're here again."
Soon, the herdsmen on the grassland couldn't help but scream in fear. When they saw the bright yellow flag, their faces suddenly turned pale, as if they were recalling the nightmare of last winter.
It was as if a huge dark cloud enveloped this peaceful grassland, and soon the killings began.
"Kill all the men who are taller than the wheel, and take away all the women and children."
Han Yi looked at the peaceful grassland in front of him and still issued the order.
This time he led 20,000 cavalry to attack the Kazakh Khanate for no other purpose than to kill, to take revenge, and to teach the Kazakh Khanate a profound lesson.
The Ming Dynasty has found out that the one who united all parties to attack the Hezhong area this time is Mulendek Khan of the Kazakh Khanate, so Yang Yun also decided to give Mulendek Khan a lesson he will never forget.
Of the 50,000 cavalry sent by the imperial court, 20,000 cavalry were directly deployed to attack the Kazakh Khanate, using offense as defense, directly attacking the heart of the Kazakh Khanate.
As Han Yi's order was conveyed, soon the grassland was filled with blood and then the ground, and the cries of women and children could be heard, but it slowly returned to calm.
The Korean wing did not stop attacking. From east to west, they began to sweep the entire Great Yuzi Grassland. After sweeping the Great Yuzi Grassland, they would continue to attack the Kazakh Grassland, which is the center of the Kazakh Khanate.
Killings continued on the grasslands here. Wherever the Ming army passed, they burned, killed, and looted. Men were killed, women and children were sold as slaves, and cattle, sheep, and horses were driven in groups to the middle of the river and the Western Regions.
.
Like a swarm of locusts, it swept across the entire Great Yuzi Grassland.
In Mulundekh Khan's golden tent, Mulundekh Khan has been studying how to deal with the Ming people.
In the past, Mulundekh Khan's biggest enemy was Shabani Khan. He fought many battles with Shabani Khan, winning and losing. He was considered his number one enemy.
However, last winter, the Ming Dynasty swept across the Western Regions and the Hezhong area, and even attacked the Kazakh Khanate forcefully. The Ming Dynasty's cavalry left a profound impact on Mulendek Khan.
The bright yellow dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty, the neat and uniform armor, the bright and sharp sabers and the superb riding skills, the art-like war killings all left an unforgettable and profound impact on Mulundekh Khan.
He didn't understand why the Kazakh cavalry, who were both cavalry and nomadic people, were vulnerable to the Ming cavalry.
In the past six months, he has ordered people to continuously inquire about the news about the Ming Dynasty and inquire about the situation of the Ming Dynasty people, hoping to find out the reasons for his failure, and then find a way to regain his position.
"The main reason why the Ming cavalry is stronger than our cavalry is because of their armor. This armor is very light in weight, but its defensive effect is very good. Neither swords nor bows and arrows can attack the Ming cavalry wearing armor.
To cause effective damage, only blunt weapons can cause certain damage."
"In addition, the Ming Dynasty's muskets are extremely powerful, with long range, high power, and fast firing rate. The Ming Dynasty's artillery is also extremely sharp. In front of the Ming Dynasty artillery, the artillery in our hands has no effect at all."
Mulundekh Khan studied carefully and constantly summarized.
"We must set up a cavalry that is the same as the Ming people, wearing armor and holding blunt weapons. Only in this way can we effectively deal with the Ming people's cavalry."
"The Ming people don't have enough troops in the Hezhong area, so they don't need too many cavalry teams. They only need to arm 20,000 people, which will be enough to severely damage the Ming people's cavalry."
Mulundeke Khan couldn't help laughing when he thought of this. The Ming people were too powerful, and they were too aggressive. They swept across the river area, which made Mulendeke very uneasy. He must drive the Ming people out, otherwise in the future
Don't even think about sleeping peacefully.
"Report~"
"Great Khan, the Ming cavalry attacked Dayuzi and burned, killed and looted on the Dayuzi grassland~"
