Hami.

It was called Yiwu in ancient times, and it was named Yizhou in the Tang Dynasty.

Xiang is the throat of the Western Region, and China defends it.

Airim followed several royal guards of the Ming Empire in gorgeous armor into the city. Burke, the leader of the Uzbek Mingge tribe, had been sizing up the city.

Hami is well-known in Central Asia. It was once the westernmost territory of the Ming Dynasty, but it gained three times and lost three times. After the Mongols occupied Yiwu, it was renamed Hami. Later, Wunasli, a descendant of Chagatai in the Yuan Dynasty, established the Hami Kingdom in Hami.

.

Zhu Yuanzhang appeased Buyan Timur, the leader of Sali Uighurs west of Jiayu Pass. After setting up the Seven Guards of Guanxi, he pushed his troops to the gate of Hami. Wuna lost his place and refused to surrender. He was defeated and the city was broken, and he fled westward.

They had no choice but to declare their vassal status, and the Ming army withdrew their troops after forcing Wuna Shili to surrender.

Zhu Di later also named Anke Timur, the new king of Hami, as the loyal and shun king, and together with Buyan Tiemur and King Anding of Guanxi, they became the two most western vassal vassals of the Ming Dynasty.

Later, when Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty succeeded to the throne, he also granted the title of King Zhongyi in Hami.

However, after the Tumubao Incident, the Ming Dynasty basically completely lost its actual control over the west of Jiayu Pass. The Turpan Khanate that split off from Eastern Chagatai, although it belongs to the same Chagatai branch as Hami Kingdom, Turpan

In order to fight for control of the Silk Road, they began to attack Hami.

However, in the 18th year of Chenghua, Gansu garrison Wang Xi used the Seven Guards of Guanxi to attack Hami at night, defeated the Turpan garrison, successfully recaptured Hami, and later named Hanshen, the nephew of the original Hami king, as the new loyal and shun king.

During the Hongzhi period, Aheima Khan of Turpan used a trick to trap Hanshen and recapture Hami again. However, he later withdrew from Hami due to threats from the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty established Shaanba, a descendant of the Meng Yuan royal family, as the Zhongshun King.

But not long after, Hami officers withheld the Ming Dynasty's rewards to Turpan and plundered the Turpan people's cattle and sheep, prompting Ahema to march eastward again. Not only did he capture Hami again, he also captured Shaanxi and Ba, and marched to the Gansu border.

The Ming army sent the governor of Gansu to send troops. The Ming army general led 4,000 people to march westward to Hami. As a result, the Turpan army ran away, leaving an empty city behind. Once the Ming army withdrew, they came back to occupy it.

Later, Turpan Khan Mansuer reached a peace agreement with his younger brother Yarkand Khan Said, so he was able to invade Gansu with confidence, directly surrounded the city of Gansu, and killed the guerrilla Ruining.

Later, Zhu Houzhao led his army to fight against the little Tatar prince. At the same time, he also sent Chen Jiuchou, the military deputy envoy, to join forces with the Wala people to attack Mansuer. Turpan was defeated and sued for peace, but from then on, everything west of Jiayu Pass was controlled by the Turpan Khanate.

During the Jiajing period, Turpan made a comeback again and attacked Gansu for the second time. However, this time, the Waci people sided with the Turpan people. The Ming Dynasty sent the Minister of War to supervise the military affairs and defeated the Turpan army under Suzhou City.

However, after the war, the Ming army failed to take the opportunity to march westward to regain the Seven Guards of Kansai and Hami. There was a fierce struggle within the Ming Dynasty due to the Great Ceremony. The Turpan people lied that the invasion of the border was because Chen Jiuchou, the governor of Gansu, deliberately provoked trouble. As a result, Jiajing actually set off

In the prison of Fengjiang, more than 40 people including Chen Jiuchou were punished, and Yang Tinghe, who dared to defy the emperor in the great ceremony, was also dismissed from office.

Jiajing took the opportunity to attack the Dali Yi faction and strengthen its authority, but the Ming Dynasty also completely lost the Seven Guards of Kansai and Hami. The Ming Dynasty finally gave up Hami and acquiesced to the occupation of Hami by the Turpan Khanate.

In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred years have passed.

Who would have thought that the Ming Dynasty would actually come back again.

And it's still coming back so strongly.

He Zhuo of the Baishan faction in Hami led the Burkes to riot and captured the city of Hami. They were about to dedicate it to Junggar, but the Ming army suddenly arrived.

The Burkes thought they were coming from the Dzungars, but when the cavalry entered the city, they discovered that they were actually the Ming Emperor's cavalry.

They reacted too late. The Ming army quickly took over the city. The Burkes refused at this time. As a result, the Ming army was not polite to them. A gunshot was fired and the whole city was purged.

Zhang Yong rushed to Dunhuang three days later to report to the emperor that Hami was completely under control.

Hami City had a population of 20,000 to 30,000 people inside and outside the city, but only 2,000 to 3,000 were left at this time. This god of death showed no mercy to those who dared to resist with arms.

When he came to report, there were no natives left in Hami City, and they were all escorted back to Dunhuang.

From the time when King Hami was granted the title in the 13th year of Hongwu to the time when it was annexed by Turpan Khan, Hami lasted for eleven generations, one hundred and thirty-five years.

After that, it was occupied by Turpan Khan and Yarkand Khan for more than a hundred years.

Now it has been recovered by the Ming Dynasty.

After regaining Hami, the emperor also moved to Hami, renamed Hami Yizhou Prefecture, established prefects, county magistrates, etc., and set up the imperial camp Yiwu Yuying, Yiwu patrolled and guarded me, Yiwu Tun Town, and set up Yiwu Station, Yiwu

Feng et al.

Daming's attack this time was a bit lightning fast.

The Baishan sect was caught off guard, and the Junggar people were also unexpected. They were preparing to join the Baishan sect, but the Ming Dynasty picked the peaches first.

But their secret agreement with the Baishan Sect cannot be made explicit.

I originally wanted to say that Hami and Turpan were all returned to the Junggars before, but the Ming Dynasty replied that Turpan and Hajime were previously allocated to the Junggars, but the Junggars themselves were lost. The last time when the nations of the world convened an alliance, it was agreed that Hami would be returned to the Ming Dynasty, and Turpan would be returned to the Junggars.

Hotan belongs to Heshuote.

Zhu Yihai had no intention of spitting out the meat that reached his mouth.

He was not Jiajing. In order to consolidate his imperial power and attack Yang Tinghe and others, he gave away the country's territory and imprisoned the soldiers guarding the border.

In the past, Ming Dynasty accepted and abandoned three times, but Zhu Yihai would not give up.

Not only did the Seven Guards of Guanxi have to actually immigrate and settle there, but Hami also did the same.

Airimu secretly looked at Hami City and the army in the city along the way.

There was not a single native with a knotted head in the city, not a single Uighur with white hat, black hat or red hat, nor the Gyligis, the main force in the Yarkand army.

It seems as if the tens of thousands of Hami natives have never appeared here.

It seemed like it all disappeared overnight.

Although the city and streets are still there, and the style of the houses here is still the same, it is now full of people from the Ming Dynasty.

The armor is bright and the cannons are majestic.

There are strict security guards in the city.

Airimu was extremely shocked. What an incredible amount of strength he must have to be able to do this.

Finally, he arrived at Hami Palace.

This was the original palace of King Hami, and later the residence of the Governor of Hami. It is now the palace of the Ming Emperor.

When he was led to the emperor by the guards, the leader of the Mingge tribe couldn't help but kneel down.

"Airim, do you want to be a Khan? Do you want to rule the entire Fergana?"

The emperor spoke a word that made Airimu's heart surge with excitement.

"think."

Airimu responded without hesitation.

"Very good, as long as you can agree to some of my conditions, I can make you the king of the outer vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and support you in establishing your own khanate in the Ming Dynasty. I have even thought of the name of the khanate for you, Dawan

Khanate."

The emperor sat there condescendingly and seemed to be talking casually, but the content was very shocking.

Airimu had no doubts about the emperor's ability.

Just like the city of Hami, it was owned by the Ming Dynasty in the blink of an eye, and not even a single native was left.

As one of the seventy-two Uzbek tribes, the Mingge tribe is not very strong.

As descendants of the Golden Horde, the Uzbeks established the Uzbek Khanate. Later, the Shaybani destroyed the Timurid Empire, unified the Transoxiana region, and established the Shaybani Dynasty.

Later, Ilbars, also from the Shaban family, drove away the Persian governor in Khwarezm and established the Khiva Khanate.

The Shaibani dynasty was founded a hundred years ago. Its capital was originally located in Samarkand, but later moved to Bukhara, so it was also called the Bukhara Khanate. The last Khan died of illness and had no heirs, and the throne was passed to his son-in-law.

His son-in-law came from the Astrakhan Khanate. After Tsarist Russia annexed the Astrakhan Khanate, a prince took his son Zani to seek refuge in the Braha Khanate. As a result, the Khanate passed to the Zani family.

The Bukhara Khanate also changed from the Shaibani Dynasty to the Zani Dynasty or the Astrakhan Dynasty.

Although several generations of Khans of the Zani dynasty also worked hard to strengthen centralization and rule the country with religious laws, which led to a short period of prosperity, after all, he was a foreign son-in-law who succeeded to the throne. The Uzbek clans did not accept it, and the separatist forces of each clan became increasingly powerful.

, and the internal strife in the royal family was also very fierce.

At the same time, the Safavid Dynasty of Persia, the Mughal Empire of India, and the Khiva Khanate also took the opportunity to invade frequently, and the Khanate became increasingly weak and divided.

As one of the seventy-two Uzbek tribes, the Mingge tribe is not very strong.

They live in the fertile Fergana Basin, but in this basin, like other parts of the Bukhara Khanate, they are basically governed by the small and large kings and become feudal lords.

These Hezhuo have extremely high prestige in the local area, and each of them is divided into one party and has strong strength.

At this time, the Zani Dynasty was experiencing internal and external troubles, and it was difficult for government orders to leave Bukhara. The Mingge tribe had always wanted to stand on its own feet, but lacked strong foreign aid.

But now the Ming Emperor wants to support them in establishing their country.

He was very excited and believed in the emperor.

Nowadays, these khans in Lianghe and other places are basically canonized by the Ming Dynasty. Even the two major kingdoms of Safi Persia and Mughal India have friendly exchanges with the Ming Dynasty.

"I wonder what His Majesty the Emperor needs from our Mingge Department?"

Zhu Yihai smiled and said, "I know you hate those Hezhuo people in Bukhara?"

Airim also answered directly: "Our Mingge tribe has also converted to Christianity with Uzbek Khan long ago, but I can't stand those Hezhuo who have not received strict academic training, but pretend to be the incarnation of the true god in front of believers.

, especially those mendicants who use the name of fake saints to defraud..."

Zhu Yihai has long heard of some of Airim's actions. He is a more sincere man, or he has a more fierce power struggle. Bukhara is now in power with the Zhuo people. They are autonomous in the local area and each call themselves Burke.

The actual feudal lords were large manor landowners, large businessmen, large ranchers, etc., who were very wealthy.

The Minge tribe is a clan tribe, and Airimu is actually a Burke. He also wants to separate himself and stand on his own, but his ambition is even greater. He wants to establish a khanate, even replace Bukhara, and even conquer Khiva and reunify the entire river.
