Just when Li Rubi led the West Route Army into Sanyinnuoyan, Ma Xin, the commander-in-chief of Guihua City, also led 10,000 East Route Army, starting from Yilin and advancing northwestward. They quickly captured Erketu and Tugulik.
, Serwusu and other places, killed the left wing of the Tuxie Tu tribe to a complete defeat.
In Kulun City, in Tuxietu Khan's tent, Chahun Dorji's face was heavy and his beard was shaking. When he was angry, his muscles twitched and his beard would tremble. Suddenly his eyes widened and he sneered: "I didn't expect this.
Wow, Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty was so ambitious! He had just finished a big war with the Qing Dynasty and annexed Monan. Regardless of the fatigue of the army and veterans, he quickly reached out to our Mobei grassland. He was not afraid of being too full.
I will hold on."
"Father Khan, what should we do now?" asked the eldest son Galdan Dorji.
Chahu Dorji glanced at everyone majestically, "There is nothing to be afraid of. We, the Khalkha Mongols, have lived in the Mobei grassland for generations. No matter whether it is the Manchus, Rakshasa people, or the Ming Dynasty, we can never let Genghis Khan
The descendants surrendered. According to this Khan's order, all men from the Tuxie Tu tribe who were over fourteen years old and under sixty years old were sent to the war. In addition, people were sent to Great Or'er (today's Genghis City in Mongolia) to let the Chechens
Khan Babu quickly led his troops to Kulun and met with this Khan."
When Chahun Dorji said this, his beard trembled violently, and evil spirits spread all over his body, like a tiger that wants to choose people and devour them.
He was a ruthless man from Mobei Mongolia. He always wanted to revitalize Khalkha Mongolia and recreate the great achievements of his ancestor Dayan Khan. Unfortunately, when he succeeded to the throne, he was surrounded by powerful enemies. There were ruthless Rakshasa people in the north and Moxi people in the west.
The Heshuote Tribe and the Junggar Tribe are two powerful neighbors, with the Manchu Qing’s sphere of influence to the south and east.
At the beginning, the Khalkha Mongols' strategy was to unite with the Qing Dynasty to defeat Russia, and their relationship with the Manchus was quite good.
As a result, in 1645, the Qing court wrote a letter to the Chechen Khan Shuolei, stating that "we are originally a country of one body, and now we are a country for all living beings to recuperate and recuperate. We need a harmonious and unified political system." This proactive overture only aroused Shuolei's anger.
After reading the letter, he felt that the Qing Dynasty was attacking the Southern Ming Dynasty at this time, and this letter was a manifestation of the Manchus' inability to take care of the north.
Therefore, Shuolei contacted Chahun Dorji's father, Tushetu Khan Gunbu, and actively expanded his power to Monan Mongolia. He instigated the rebellion of Monan Mongolia's Sunit tribe leader Teng Jisi, which triggered a stir between the Qing court and Mobei.
Mongolian war.
That battle lingers in the memory of Chahu Dorji. The 50,000 coalition troops of Tuxietu, Chechnya, and Sanyinnuoyan tribes, and the 28,000 bannermen led by Prince Duduo of Qingyu were on the banks of the Tula River.
In a confrontation, the 50,000-strong army could not defeat the 20,000-eight banners, and was defeated. They had to apologize to the Qing court.
After the war, Chahu Dorji summed up two lessons: first, the Mobei Mongolian tribes were scattered, and if they wanted to be strong, they must be unified; second, artillery! The future war will be dominated by artillery. If you want to win, you must be equipped with a large number of them.
cannon.
After his father's death, Chahu Dorji inherited the throne of Tushetu Khan. At first, his situation was not good. Although he was the eldest son, he was not the legitimate son. A group of brothers wanted to compete with him for the throne, and he and his second brother Zhe
The relationship between Buzundamba and Buzundamba was also not good, and his rule was very unstable.
He was a man of his own opinion. On the one hand, he was shy and endured humiliation. He took the initiative to send envoys to meet Emperor Shunzhi and pay tribute, and used the power of the Qing Dynasty to stabilize his rule. On the other hand, he fought and traded with the Rakshasa people, buying their cannons and guns.
Gun, enhance strength.
Emperor Shunzhi was also a bad person. He imitated the Han Dynasty in extending the order of favor and "building all the feudal lords with less power." He granted eight zasaks in Khalkha: Tushetu Khan, Chechen Khan, and Mergenno.
Yan, Denzin Lama, Luobuzang Nuoyan, Chechen Jinong, Kundu Lunduoyin, and Bixiler Tuhan. That means, I want to split Mobei Mongolia into eight pieces and divide and conquer them.
Chahu Dorji did not panic at all. You will grant yours, and I will rule mine. Let the Qing court's enfeoffment become a mere formality. Mobei still has the final say of the Tuxie Tubu.
Over the years, he added a large number of cannons and muskets to his army. He also took advantage of the civil strife in the Zasak tribe to annex the people of Erjigen. He also plundered Monan from time to time. He became more and more powerful, breeding
In order to reproduce the great achievements of Dayan Khan and strive to dominate the world.
"Aha, the Ming army is powerful and the Rakshasa people in the north have sharp weapons. Why don't we ask them for help?"
Chahu Dorji waved his hand, "The people of the Ming Dynasty are tigers, and those Rakshasa ghosts are also wolves. They are not good things. You can buy firearms from the Rakshasa ghosts, but you must not borrow troops. Otherwise, you will drive away tigers through the front door and wolves from the back door.
”.
His dislike of Rakshasa people is consistent, these bandits are becoming more and more outrageous!
In 1601, the Rakshasa established the Mangazeya stronghold in the lower reaches of the Yenisey River; in 1604, they went to Mongolia, the desert to establish the Tomsk stronghold; in 1607, they established Tuluhanks in the middle reaches of the Yenisey River
Stronghold; in 1616, an expedition was sent to explore the area of Khovd (Altai Mountains); in 1619, the Yeniseysk stronghold was established; in 1631, the Bratsk stronghold was established on the upper reaches of the Yenisey River; in 1648, in Baikal
Lake area, establish Barguzin stronghold.
The Buryat Mongols living on the shores of Lake Baikal have been subordinate to Tushetu Khan for generations. Tushetu Khan once awarded the Buryat people the honorary title "Heshuo Geqin". Rakshasa ghosts occupied Baikal
The lake is like extending its claws to the home of the Tuxietu tribe.
How can you bear this? Beat!
Chahun Dorji led the Khalkha Mongolian tribes to repeatedly compete with the Rakshasa people for the Lake Baikal area. Due to their fierce resistance, the Rakshasa people had to give up their plans to continue southward and instead invaded the Heilongjiang River Basin in the east.
Erkha Mongolia and Tsarist Russia reached a short-term balance.
Historically, this Tushetu Khan has always wanted to regain the lost territory in the north. He once told others, "The Rakshasa people are greedy devils. There is no other way to deal with them except using sabers and bows and arrows." After he became full-fledged,
, sent envoys to Moscow twice to demand that the Russians withdraw from the strongholds established around Lake Baikal and return them to the Buryat Mongols.
The Russians naturally refused to agree, saying that the construction of these strongholds was only for better management of Russian subjects and did not hinder the normal life of you Khalkha Mongols.
As a result, this brave Khan announced that he had severed diplomatic relations with Tsarist Russia and sent cavalry to launch plundering attacks on Russian strongholds in the Baikal Lake area. The plundering continued several times a year until he was defeated by Galdan of the Junggar tribe and had no choice but to surrender.
Until Kangxi.
Under Chahu Dorji's forced order, the Tuxietu tribe quickly took action to prepare for war. This is a large tribe with a population of more than 300,000. Although the incident happened in a hurry, it was too late to recruit all the herdsmen scattered in various places.
But because most of the population is concentrated in the Cullen City area, there are still 25,000 people gathered.
??
In the city of Nerchinsk (now Nerchinsk, Russia), Bashkov, the Heilongjiang governor appointed by the tsar, was inspecting the city defense. He had just returned from Yaksa City.
I was very happy. With the construction of these two majestic cities, His Majesty the Tsar's rule in the East was further consolidated.
He was originally the warlord of Yeniseysk in Tsarist Russia. He was appointed as the warlord of Heilongjiang by Tsar Alexei four years ago and vigorously expanded territory. This is the third warlord set up in the east after Yeniseysk and Yakutsk.
Jurisdiction, marking the Russians extending their black hands to Heilongjiang.
Bashkov was full of ambitions and prepared to do something big, but the resistance of these Easterners was too fierce. A few years ago, Yakutsk warlord Franzbekov wanted to take advantage of the fighting between the Tatars and the Ming people to go to Heilongjiang
They opened up territory in the eastern section, but suffered a huge defeat and retreated to the vicinity of the Waixing'an Mountains in despair. Their expansion in the central and western sections of Heilongjiang was not very smooth either, but they occupied the Huma area. The Heilongjiang Governor's Region has never actually been established. However, the development in the Nerchinsk (Nerchinsk) area was very successful. Two castles and more than ten strongholds were built in Nerchinsk (Nerchinsk) and Yaksa. Given time, this area will definitely be able to be expanded.
, turned into His Majesty’s Yellow Russia!
While Bashkov was thinking about something, the stewards Arshensky and Milevalov came in a hurry, "Your Majesty the Governor, I just got the news that the Ming army has entered Mobei, and Tushetu Khan and Chechen Khan are
A fierce battle with the Ming army.
"Okay! God bless the Tsar!"
Bashkov shouted excitedly: "Now the construction of a fort on the banks of the Seleng River can be implemented!"
This notorious colonial leader coveted the Mobei grassland. He had always wanted to build a castle in the Seleng River Basin, and he had already thought of the name "Seleng Geske Castle".
But this area is the territory of the Chechen Khan, and the Khalkha Mongols did not agree to build a castle here, so it has always been just an idea.
Now it's better, the Mongols have nothing to worry about and can build a fort.
Bashkov was a resolute man and immediately ordered the general manager Arshensky to lead the Cossack leaders Voyekov, Frolov, and 700 Cossacks to build the "Selengesk Fort" on the Seleng River.
.
"Sir, what should we do if Mongols attack us?" Milevalov asked worriedly.
"Don't be afraid, they are fighting the Ming people and have no power to attack us."
Bashkov thought for a while and then said: "Milevalov, you send someone to see Chechen Khan Babu. Tell him that we are just building an earthen house on the Selen River to shelter Russian hunters from the rain. As long as
He agreed that we could give him three hundred muskets. In addition, the Russian army is willing to help the Mongols win the war."
History has gone awry here. The construction of Selengesk Castle, which was originally built just in 1665, started seven years in advance.
