Opponents need strength, and the emperor is reshaping the pattern of the Western Regions.
Yarkand Khan Abdullah Khan had internal and external troubles and was defeated by his son, who abdicated the throne and left for Mecca alone. The governor of Turpan switched to the Ming Dynasty and made himself Khan.
Junggar Khan Batur Khan was dissatisfied with the Ming Dynasty and insisted on marching eastward. As a result, he was defeated one after another. He was tragically killed in Hoboxel Fort. The Junggar Khanate lost 100,000 people and was divided into two.
Even the Kazakh Khanate, which originally conquered Xiaoyuzi of the Nogai Khanate, reestablished the Nogai Khanate on its own with the secret support of the Ming Dynasty. Kazakh Yangjier Khan was caught off guard and sent troops to conquer, but the result was a failure. The Ming Dynasty also sent envoys
Go to mediate and hope that Kazakhstan will recognize the restoration of the Nogai Khanate.
The Uzbek Mingge tribe Airim in the Fergana Basin also received the support of the Ming Dynasty to establish itself as a khan and establish the Dawan Khanate. However, the Bukhara Khanate was unable to conquer it and could only recognize the fait accompli with the intervention of the Ming Dynasty.
"Aksu, Kuqa, Baicheng, and Wush all belong to the Qilut Khanate."
"The area south of Chuyili Mountain, to Hubahai Mountain (Kyrgyz Mountains), to Lake Issyk-Kul, Barhun Ridge, and the Chu River Basin in the east belongs to the Kazakh Khanate."
"Fergana Basin, Congling, belongs to the Dawan Khanate."
"Kashgar, Yarkand, Khotan, and Yutian to the north of the Karakoram Mountains, to the south of the Tianshan Mountains, and to the east of Congling, all belong to the Heshuote Khanate."
"Urumqi, Turpan, Barkol, and the ancient cities belong to the Turpan Khanate."
"Anxi, Dunhuang, Hami, Ruoqiang, Wusu, Yanqi, and Korla to the west of Jiayu Pass returned to the Ming Dynasty."
Six families divide the territory of Yarkand. Durbot, Junggar, Bukhara, Khiva, Nogai, Persian Safi, Mughal, Khalkha, etc. will participate in the final attack on Yarkand.
After the war, the six countries obtained land, part of the population, and livestock, while the remaining countries divided up part of the population, livestock, etc.
In this six-family division, Heshuote occupies the most elite areas of the original Yarkant, and Jerut also occupies many good places.
On the surface, it seems that the Ming Dynasty did not occupy much, and Eastern Xinjiang supported the Turpan Khanate. However, if we consider that after the last Junggar attack, Turpan was also seriously damaged, and coupled with the internal fighting between black and white, the current Turpan can no longer be regarded as an independent country.
In the Khanate, the Ming Dynasty built cities and garrisoned troops in several major places in the Turpan Khanate.
Calculating it this way, in fact, the Ming Dynasty got the largest territory, and Junggar was the worst. The Eastern Xinjiang originally agreed to be given to him was not gained at all. As a result, the Khan died, and the Khanate was divided into two, and he still lost his mouth.
One hundred thousand, who can I talk to to reason with you?
A treaty was also finalized at the meeting.
Even after the six kingdoms carved up Yarkand, the old Yarkand land must change its faith. Black, white, and red people can no longer believe in green. The Turpan Khanate must also change its faith.
As for whether the Six Nations should convert the indigenous people in the occupied areas to Gelug Sect or Confucianism, it is up to them to decide, but they cannot believe in Green.
The Ming army is now directly carrying out breeding in Hami, Yanqi, Wusu and other places, moving the aboriginal people away and moving inland Han people. This approach is costly, but the Ming Dynasty has the support of hundreds of millions of people in the mainland, and hundreds of thousands or millions of people move there every year.
, as long as the court is willing to make up its mind, it can be done.
After changing the species, the future problems will undoubtedly be completely solved.
Unlike the Huns, Turks, and Mongols who were defeated by the Central Plains and moved to the Western Regions and Central Asia, although they violently conquered the indigenous people for a while, slowly because the number of the ruling class was too small, they were eventually assimilated by the indigenous people.
Just like the Kazakh Khanate, the Uzbeks were led by Klei Khan and Janibek Khan of the Uzbek Khanate to establish the Kazakh Khanate, but the Uzbeks they brought were not many. The majority ethnic groups in the Khanate
They are still local tribes, and many of them are still ancient Sze people. The Xiaoyuzi area that was later conquered is mainly Nogai people.
The descendants of Kelehan and others call themselves White Bones, while the aborigines are called Black Bones.
The upper echelons of the Khanate were all white bones. The white bones intermarried with each other but not with the black bones. The boundaries between the two classes were clear, which also made it difficult for the Kazakh Khanate, like the previous Mongol Khanate, to truly integrate with the aboriginal people.
.
The Nogai Khanate established itself as a khanate so easily, but Yangjier Khan, who had defeated the Junggars, could not defeat them. The key is that the Nogai people are large in number, and with the support of the Ming Dynasty behind them, some tribes in the Kazakh Khanate are even ready to move.
This battle is difficult to fight if people are not united.
In fact, before the partition plan came out, Torgut Khan had approached Zhu Yihai and proposed his plan to return eastward. The main reason was that after Torgut moved westward, he was a little too arrogant at first and underestimated the enemy, defeating some locals.
After the Nogai people waited, they became a little crazy.
I thought that Tsarist Russia was just mediocre, but after a decisive battle, more than 100,000 old and young in Torgut went into battle, but Tsarist Russia killed all the Khans. There were countless casualties and injuries, so they had to pay tribute to Tsarist Russia.
If Tsarist Russia was not temporarily beyond his reach, Torghut would have been destroyed.
With their strength greatly reduced, they had a hard time in the Volga River Basin. Seeing the prosperity in their hometown, they thought of moving back.
But now the Western Region is full of territory, and Torhut is interested in Yarkand's southern borderland. But if everyone joins forces to destroy the Qiang, who is willing to give up the territory to Torhut?
As for Zhu Yihai, he would rather support Torgut and let them continue to stay in the Volga River Basin, which can be regarded as an outpost. After all, Ming Dynasty is still declaring war with Tsarist Russia, allowing them to contain Tsarist Russia.
What's more, Torgut is now a vassal of the Ming Dynasty. They are nomadic on the north shore of the Caspian Sea. This also means that the western frontier of the Ming Empire has reached the north shore of the Caspian Sea. Let's circle it first and mark the location.
On the other hand, it can also contain the Kazakh Khanate, which is also a false move.
Zhu Yihai politely rejected the eastward migration of the Torgut people, but was willing to strengthen trade with the Torgut Khanate and proposed to restore two trade silk routes to the Torgut on the north coast of the Caspian Sea. The northern route was through Hami and Turpan.
Urumqi and Usuyili, then pass through Chu River, Syr Darya River, Kazakhstan, Nogai and finally Turgut.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The southern route passes through Dunhuang Ruoqiang, Yuli, Yanqi, Kuqa, Aksu, Kashgar, and then enters Dawan, Kokand, Samarkand, and Tashkent
, Khiva, and then to Nogai and Turgut.
The two Silk Roads connect the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains, and both lead to the north shore of the Caspian Sea, and from there continue westward to Europe.
There will also be another trade route in Kashgar, crossing the Congling Mountains and entering the river area, and then entering Persia or India respectively.
There will also be another route from Ruoqiang connecting Qiemo, Yutian, Yarkand, Kashgar, Kashmir and other places.
Zhu Yihai's ability in painting cakes is still very strong. In the past, all the ministries only focused on the one-third of an acre of land in front of them and had no time to care about it.
But now the emperor has connected the entire Western Region together and served as an important link between the interior of the Eastern Central Plains and South Asia, West Asia, Europe and other places.
Anyway, the cake is drawn to be big and round. By then, the Silk Road will be crisscrossed, and countless commercial goods will pass through the Western Regions, and the prosperity of the ancient Silk Road will be restored.
The emperor did not mention at all that today is the Age of Discovery, and maritime trade far exceeds land trade. However, the emperor is not completely lying. If the Western Region can be stabilized, the demand for so many countries and so many people will be huge, especially
It connects the east and west of Asia and Europe, and one can definitely get rich on this trade road.
Everyone had their own little calculations, and the emperor's long-term vision was deliberately taken into consideration for all parties.
One Belt, One Road.
There are many Silk Roads, and every road is smooth and prosperous.
Just say whether you are excited or not.
Anyway, all parties participating in the alliance, except Chu Huer of Junggar and uncle and nephew Zhuote Babatur, were extremely depressed, and Kazakh Khan Yangir was a little worried, the other parties were quite satisfied.
Even the Mughal and Safi countries, and even the Ottoman representatives who came to participate in the conference for the first time, are looking forward to it. What they focus on is trade and comprehensive trade cooperation with the Ming Dynasty. They are looking forward to it, especially when they see the Ming Dynasty in the Western Regions.
With a strong attack, he defeated Yarkand with his left hand and kicked Junggar with his right foot. He also easily supported the independence of Turpan Khanate, Dayuan Khanate and Nogai Khanate. I am even more looking forward to it.
Although they are both local overlords, who doesn't have a few disobedient children around him, who doesn't have a few threatening neighbors, and who doesn't even have a bit of fat to covet?
Whether it is fighting or enjoying, money is needed, and big countries need money more. They are all looking forward to the One Belt, One Road and New Silk Road trade described by Tomorrow. This thing has a very good prospect, and the benefits are huge. No one wants to miss it.
.
As for Heshuote Gushi Khan, Dulbert Heshuoqi Khan, Julu Techechen Khan, etc., they are more focused on the immediate interests. The seven families are divided into Yarkands, and the benefits they can get are too great.
There were so many that it was difficult for them to refuse Zhu Yihai's proposals.
The conference was held for several days.
When everyone was quite satisfied, the emperor finally threw out the two things he had been preparing for a long time.
First, the Huite Department asked for independence. There were many reasons. They talked about it in public, and they did not say anything bad about Dulbert. They just said that their Huite Department used to be a separate unit, and now they hope to be like Dulbert.
Establish your own khanate instead of being attached to the Dulbert Khanate.
He also cited Dulbert's separation from the Junggar Khanate.
Before Dulbert and Shuoqihan could refuse, Zhu Yihai directly expressed his willingness to support their idea, which put Heshuoqi into trouble.
Sordo Hutaiji of the Huite tribe sincerely told Heshuoqi Khan that they would give up all the Huite tribe's share of the Yarkand annihilation to the Dulbert tribe.
Zhu Yihai struck while the iron was hot and proposed a separation proposal, using the Altai Mountains as the boundary, with the west of the Altai Mountains going to Dulbert, and the pastures in Juyanhai and other places in the north of Gansu still belong to Dulbert.
The Khite Khanate is bounded by the Altai Mountains to the west, the Tangnu Mountains to the north, and the Hangai Mountains to the east, where it borders Zhasak Tuhan.
A series of lakes distributed from north to south, including Ubu Sanor Lake, Gilijis Lake, Arak Lake, Kara Lake, Durgen Lake, and Qiqik Lake, also become the boundaries between Huite and Zasak.
The Durbot Khanate still established the Jinshan Protectorate, while the Huite tribe newly established the Khovd Protectorate.
The northwest border of the Durbot Khanate is on the north bank of the Irtysh River, extending all the way to the lower reaches of the north bank. There is no border. The northwest border of the Khite Khanate is in the Ob River Basin, and there is no border drawn to the northwest.
The northwest border of the Khanate is the watershed of the Irtysh River and the Ob River.
To the north of Tangnu Mountain, the northern boundary of the Huite Khanate, the Hetohuite tribe of the Zasaktu Khanate also requested the establishment of an independent khanate. Anyway, there were many reasons.
The emperor also expressed his support and discussed things well with Zasak Tuhan, but Zasak Tuhan had long been unable to control the Tuohuite tribe. They were originally Huitaiji, but they claimed to be Altan Khan.
Over the years, especially these years, the Hetuohite Department has gradually become stronger and stronger, and its strength has recovered a lot, and it is impossible to control it.
Ombu Erdeni Hutaiji of the Tuohite tribe has been leading the tribe for more than 20 years, especially in the past ten years, and has swept across the Yenisei River.
, Historically, soon after Ombul Erdeni's son Erphoqin Luobuzang succeeded to the throne, he directly killed the newly succeeded Khan of the Zasak Tube.
Later, he was also attacked by the stronger Junggar and Zhasak tribes. Because he changed his father's attitude and refused to recognize the suzerainty of Tsarist Russia, he was surrounded on all sides. In the end, he was captured by the Sengge, who also beheaded him.
With his right hand, he stuffed dog meat into his mouth and insulted him. Later, he fled to Tibet, surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and accompanied Kangxi on his expedition to Junggar.
Now the Tuohuit tribe is requesting the Ming Dynasty to be enthroned as a Khan and to separate from the Zasak Tuhan and become independent. Zasak Tulian's opposition is very weak.
After some simple push and pull, he finally had to reluctantly agree to establish independence with the Tuohite tribe. Zhu Yihai also conferred the title of Altan Khan on Ombul Erdeni. The boundary of his khanate was just north of Tangnu Mountain as a way to achieve independence.
According to the conditions, he also transferred some benefits.
Many places south of the original Tangnu Mountain also belonged to him, including the Ubu Sanor Lake that was assigned to the Huite tribe, where they originally stationed their tents. The Nantes River Basin in Tangnu Mountain to the east of the lake was also handed over to the original suzerain.
Zasak Tuhan.
They moved to the north of the mountain, to the east of Namana Mountain, and to the southwestern shore of Lake Baikal.
There are no boundaries to the north, and everything to the north is under their control.
The boundary between the northwest and the Khite Khanate is the watershed of the Ob River and the Yenisei River.
The emperor encouraged the Junggar, Durbot, Khite, and Altang Khanate to expand northward, used troops against Tsarist Russia, uprooted the strongholds and fortresses they had established, and drove away the Tsarist Russians. On the Irtysh River, Ob
They established their stronghold cities in the basins of several major rivers, including the Yenisey River and the Yenisey River.
The Buryat left and right wings and the Barhu tribe in the Lake Baikal area were also upgraded to the Buryat Khanate this time, and the Ming Dynasty completed its layout in the northern forest area.
It left them all with a direction and room for expansion, guiding them to expand northward and westward.
From east to west, they are the Buryat Khanate, Chechen Khanate, Tushetu Khanate, Zasaktu Khanate, Altan Khanate, and Khite Khanate in Mobei.
To the east of the Altay Mountains, in the Moxi area, are the Durbot Khanate, the Junggar Khanate, the Turpan Khanate, and the Jorut Khanate.
As well as the Dawan Khanate, Bukhara Khanate, Khiva Khanate, Kazakh Khanate, Nogai Khanate in Hezhong and other places, as well as the Torgut Khanate on the north bank of the Caspian Sea further away.
and the Khoshot Khanate in Qinghai-Tibet.
The six khanates of Mobei, the nine khanates of Moxi, as well as Qinghai-Tibet Heshuote and Caspian Turghut, totaling seventeen khanates.
These are all vassal khanates of the Ming Dynasty, and they are basically khanates ruled by Mongolian princes and nobles. Bukhara, Dawan, Khiva, and Kazakhstan were all established and ruled by Uzbeks, Turgut, and Durbot
, Huite, Heshuote, Jorut, and Junggar were all established by Oirat people.
The four khanates, the Chechen Khanate, the Tushetu Khanate, the Zasaktu Khanate, and the Altan Khanate, all came out of the Transkarkha part of the Tatar-Mongolia proper.
Only Buryatia is considered an older Mongolian tribe.
At this meeting, the great monks also gained a lot. With Zhu Yihai's endorsement and support, among the seventeen khanates, except for the four Uzbek Khanates, the remaining thirteen all adopted the Yellow Sect as the state religion of the khanates. They asked the great monk to send someone
He went to preach the Dharma and garrison it, and also expressed his intention to overhaul the temple and worship it.
Of course, the ones who gained the most were Daming and Zhu Yihai.
The Ming Dynasty once again strengthened the authority of the suzerain state and further strengthened its influence. Through this canonization and territorial division, it gained the support and submission of the Mongolian tribes and the support of the Gelug sect.
In addition to the Anxi Special Province directly established by the Ming Dynasty, as well as the castles, garrisons, and towns established in Turpan and Junggar, the Ming Dynasty is no longer the superficial leader of the vassals, but has real control.
On the other hand, the Belt and Road Initiative will also be fully launched, and the ancient Silk Road will be reborn. This is a huge trade market. For Ming Dynasty, this cake is very big.
······
"This alliance meeting went very smoothly."
"Yes, it went so smoothly that people can't believe it."
"I thought Chu Hu'er would cause trouble this time, but I didn't expect that she didn't fart at all."
After the meeting, the emperor and his ministers drank tea together, and Zhu Dadian was a little surprised.
"Chu Hu'er is dishonest and didn't make any fuss at the meeting, but he must be simmering with anger. I predict that as soon as he returns, within three months, he will definitely cause trouble and may directly attack Sengge."
Yan Wogong asked: "Do you want to interfere?"
"There's no rush, let him take action first, and then it will be clear and logical for the court to take action again."
Yan Wogong nodded, not only did he want to have a famous army, but the emperor was also happy to see Junggar fight again, so that Junggar could be further weakened. By then, the imperial court would not only be able to make a famous army, but it would also take the opportunity to further invade Junggar territory.
The city was built, the troops were stationed, and the fields were stationed.
Maybe, the khanates such as Qulut, Dulbert, Kazakh, etc. will be involved. As long as the scale of the chaos is within the control of the imperial court, this kind of turmoil will only benefit the Ming Dynasty and not harm it.
Although the current countries in the Western Region are far from rivals of the Ming Dynasty in terms of individual strength, their overall strength is quite strong and they are always a threat.
Only when they are weaker will the Western Region be truly safe.
"Don't worry about them for now. We still have to immigrate to the Western Regions as soon as possible. Anxi Special Province is currently short of people. If we only have land and don't have people, especially our own people, then this land is just a dead land. Only when we have more people can we truly become the Ming Dynasty.
It is not enough to rely on a few garrison troops to establish territory. At least hundreds of thousands or millions of people must be relocated here every year.
Come up with some good policies to encourage and attract immigrants. When they come, they will allocate fields and grant land. One person will be given thirty to fifty acres or even one hundred acres, and one family will be given two to three hundred acres of land. If they are not willing to come, we will lend them interest-free loans.
Buy cattle and horses, and sell slaves from the Western Regions to them at a low price, and they will be tax-free for a few years."
On the Yerqiang side, Zhu Yihai didn't plan to get involved in the remaining battles. He just sent some troops to help out, and let Heshuote, Jiaolut, Kazak, Dawan and others fight, while the Ming army sat on the mountain and watched.
Tiger fighting is enough, anyway, the Ming army has already taken all the land allocated to the Ming army.
Based on the habits of the Mongolian tribes, it is very easy for them to fight among themselves, and there will definitely be conflicts. If they are allowed to fight, the Ming Dynasty will sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
Anyway, no matter how they fight, the referee Daming will never lose.
"It's almost late autumn in the blink of an eye. Will Your Majesty return to Beijing this year?"
Zhu Yihai held the teacup and pondered for a while, "Wait a little longer. The Western Region is far away. If I go back to Beijing, I may never come back again. I'd better wait a little longer."
He smiled and said, "The prince stayed behind to supervise the country and serve as regent. The affairs of the court are being handled in an orderly manner, so I don't need to worry about going back."
"Hahaha!"
"Yes, the prince is wise, a blessing to the country, and a blessing to the saint."
