In March of the seventh year of the reign of Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty, it was still very cold in Hami, the Western Region, but the palace of Hami King Muhanmatixia was as warm as spring.
Hami melons, jujubes, grapes, apples, pears and other fruits that are rarely seen on a regular basis are placed on the table. Cow, sheep and donkey meat are all available, as well as snow roosters, yellow sheep, wild boars, wild camels and other Hami delicacies.<

Hami King Muhammetisha is very hospitable and is willing to take out good things and enjoy them with his guests.
He was a courageous man. He came to Hami from Ili and established a huge empire. He was highly respected and respected, and he returned to Xinjiang with great authority. On the surface, Hami belonged to the Yarkand Khanate, and Muhammetisha was the Yarkand Khan.
The ministers of the country Abdullah Khan are actually just names in name. They are truly independent kingdoms and the heroes who dominate one side.
Because of the internal fighting between the Black Mountain Faction and the White Mountain Faction, Hami and Yerqiang had already been at odds with each other and almost had a civil war. Fortunately, they had a common enemy: Sengge, the leader of the Junggar Tribe.
The monk was young, energetic and ambitious. While expelling the Rakshasa people, he wanted to reach out to Hami. Under the threat of the Junggar tribe, Yeerqiang and Hami did not dare to kill each other. They hugged each other to resist the monk.
The military front of the grid.
In order to fight against the Sengge, Yarkand Khan Abdullah and Hami King Muhammetisha tried their best to win over the Heshuote Khanate, and their relationship with Dorji was excellent.
When an old friend is defeated and comes to surrender, it is natural to entertain him well, including wine, food, singing and dancing, everything is indispensable
The musician played the soft Dutar, and the charming Uyghur girl danced gracefully. Her body movements, combined with her smart eyes, conveyed her feelings and thoughts, which was wonderful.
Normally, Dorzi would have loved to be surrounded by such beauties and not miss Shu. But now, he has no intention of admiring them.
He politely took a sip of wine and said to Muhanmaitixia: "Hezhuo, Emperor Guangwu of the Ming Dynasty was cruel and warlike, and had the heart to swallow up the whole world. If you let the Ming army capture Qinghai, they will definitely look forward to Shu and attack Hami.
It’s better to help me and Shuote regain Qinghai while their foothold is not yet stable. This will not only eliminate hidden dangers, but also help our friends."
"Alas! Dorji Hutaiji, you don't know something. Hutaiji Sengge of the Junggar tribe has always wanted to annex Hami. He sent Chuhu'er Ubas to garrison troops near the northern border of Hami. A strong enemy is pressing down on the border. We
I really don’t dare to send troops!”
Muhanmaitixia let out a long sigh and declined politely.
Hearing what he said, Dorji had no choice but to escape to Hami. He only had dozens of followers around him and could not do anything. He had to drink to relieve his sorrow and hug the dancing girl to be happy.
"Father, the Dzungars only have a few thousand troops stationed at the border, so there is nothing to fear. Why are you unwilling to send troops to help Uncle Dorji Shi?" asked Ebedulla, the son of Muhammetisha.
"My son, Hami is a small country and can only survive in the cracks of powerful countries. We cannot afford to offend the Heshuote people; we cannot afford to offend the Ming Dynasty!"
Muhanmetixia entertained Dorji with a banquet, and at the same time sent people to express his goodwill to Hu Zhigong, the governor of Qinghai-Tibet in the Ming Dynasty.
When Hu Zhigong met the envoy of King Hami, he sneered in his heart but was kind on his face, "You go back and repay King Hami. If you want to make peace with the Ming Dynasty, you must do two things to me: first, declare yourself a minister to my Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty;
Second, offer Dorji’s head.
"What! Hu Duxian wants to offer Dorji's head to me?"
After hearing the news brought back by the envoy, Muhanmetixia frowned. It didn't matter if he called himself a vassal, but he and Dorji had known each other for many years, and they still had some feelings for each other. Killing an old friend for glory was something he couldn't bear to do;
In this case, although Dorji was defeated, the main force of the Heshuote tribe was still there, and there were still many soldiers under Dayan Oqil Khan. If Dorji was killed, what would happen if the Heshuote people took revenge in the future?<
/p>
He thought for a while and continued to practice Tai Chi. At the same time, he wrote a form of submission to the Ming Emperor. At the same time, he refused to hand over Dorji's head on the grounds that Dorji had not fled to Hami.
Seeing that King Hami was disobeying him, Hu Zhigong was angry, but he had no time to care. He wanted to go south to fight the army of Dayan Oqil Khan.
??
Snow is falling heavily, but the city walls of Shigatse are in full swing.
With the roar of cannons, Dayan Eqil placed the Khan flag under the city of Shigatse, and groups of Mongolian soldiers roared onto the city.
Norbu, Gekasa, and Zashbatour fought tooth and nail to resist.
The city was dyed red with blood, and bodies continued to fall from the city wall. The sun set, and Shigatse, which was riddled with holes, persisted for another day. It was really riddled with holes, and a small section of the west wall was even destroyed by cannons. As a last resort,
, we had to use knife carts and cloth bags to block it.
"Humph, tomorrow the Japanese Khan will definitely attack this city, and then he will be killed and no one will be left alive." Looking at the broken city wall, Dayan Oqil Khan sneered again and again. He was the Great Khan of the Keshote Khanate, and he was from Moxi.
Mongolia is a famous warrior. Holding a sharp steel sword, he stands majestically under the Sulu ingot, like a killing god from hell.
"Great Khan, Qinghai Navy News!"
Dayan Eqil was just thinking about the joy after conquering Shigatse, but he received a military report from Qinghai.
The Ming army entered Qinghai?
Dayan Eqi'er was shocked when he heard the report. With only a small number of soldiers, he might not be able to defend Qinghai. Qinghai is the lifeblood of the Heshuo Special Department. Most of the family members of the soldiers are in Qinghai and cannot be lost!
As expected of the mighty Mongolian Khan of the Desert, although his heart was in agony, his face remained calm. He calmly ordered: "Return to the north and gallop day and night to Qinghai."
Dayan Eqil led an army of 50,000 people to gallop forward, and gathered another 20,000 troops who stayed behind in Damxiong. A total of 70,000 troops headed for Qinghai with murderous intent.
While marching, he wrote a letter to Ngawang Losang Gyatso in Lhasa, asking him to quickly bring his troops and horses to join him in Qinghai.
??
Lhasa, also known as Sunlight City, has beautiful scenery and a long history. Since Songtsan moved the capital here from Shannan in the seventh century, it has been the political center of the Snowy Land.
After Ngawang Losang Gyatso received Dayan Eqir's letter, he smiled meaningfully, "Amitabha, I have finally waited for this day!"
"What does the master mean by this?"
Chen Gyatso, Lobsang Tudao, Lobsang Jinpa, Sangjie Gyatso and other close friends asked.
"Haha, I mean, the opportunity has come to restore the old system and regain the real power in the Snow Region."
When everyone heard this, they all cheered up. In these days, they took advantage of the war between Dayan Eqirhan and Norbu to privately open the treasury and expand the army, just to seize power.
Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso held the prayer beads and murmured the order: "Shangjie Gyatso protects Yu's side; Lobsang Tudao, Lobsang Jinba controls the city defense; Sangjie Gyatso seals all the warehouses."
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Ngawang Lobsang Gyatso looked at the letter written by Dayan Ezier asking him to go to Qinghai to join him. He read "Amitabha" and threw the letter into the furnace.
"Master, will this cause Dayan Eqir's revenge?" Chen Gyatso asked.
Ngawang Losang Gyatso smiled and said: "He can no longer protect himself, so don't worry about him. The top priority is to send envoys to surrender to the Ming Dynasty."
