Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 881 Dilemma
According to the memory of Emperor Chongzhen, among the oil fields in Tsarist Russia, the most abundant oil field is the Tyumen Oil Field, which is located in the basin east of the Ural Mountains.

At this time, there are actually very few people here, and there are not many Tsarist Russian troops.It can be said that the area east of the Ural Mountains has not been valued by Tsarist Russia.Since their tentacles extending to the Far East were cut off by the Ming army, there have been fewer traces in the east.

From this point of view, it is actually relatively simple for the Ming army to occupy this place.

However, Emperor Chongzhen's plan was not just to occupy the Tyumen Oil Field.Because the terrain of the Ural Mountains is gentle in the west and steep in the east, if this is used as the boundary in the future, it will be more difficult for the Ming army to defend this side.

Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen's original order to Hong Chengchou was that the Ming army should go further, at least to the Volga River Basin.If you can, you can go west, because there is also an oil and gas field on this plain.But this is not mandatory.

Border disputes, if we cannot deal with our opponents severely, then friction on the border will continue.Therefore, Ming and Tsarist Russia are bound to fight a war.As for where to choose to fight, it was up to Hong Chengchou.

Having learned about it many times in advance, Hong Chengchou of course has already selected the location according to his will.The place he chose was Samara Fort on the east bank of the Volga River.

This Samara Fort was built by Tsarist Russia at the end of the sixteenth century in order to prevent the invasion of nomads.Here, there is already a certain defense capability.

Hong Chengchou led the army, and came forward in a mighty manner, and the cavalry at the outpost rushed forward even faster, so that the garrison of Tsarist Russia here had no time to escape, let alone destroy it, and it was completely surrounded.

When Hong Chengchou led the army to arrive, and the red barbarian cannons came to the front of the formation, the Samara Fort fired a white flag.There are only more than 1000 of them in total, and there is no possibility of resistance at all.

"From now on, this place will be called Mingwei Castle!" Hong Chengchou ordered to change the name after climbing to the highest point of the castle and overlooking the Eastern European Plain.

Subsequently, the army and then the civilians began to expand Minwei Fort.

........................

A large tribe in the original Oirat tribe, called the Torghut tribe, most of them were nomadic decades ago, and finally reached the Volga River Basin.Along with them, there are also a small number of Duerbert tribes, Heshuote tribes and other tribes belonging to the Oirat tribe.

However, after they migrated to the Volga River Basin, they did not live a happy life.

Tsarist Russia in the north often went south to harass them, buying furs at low prices and dumping goods at high prices. In short, they just thought of various ways to squeeze them dry.In the south, on the east bank of the Volga River Basin, it will often be invaded by the Kazakh Khanate; on the west bank of the Volga River Basin, it will often be invaded by the Crimean Khanate.All in all, life was still rough.

If they develop according to the original history, they will not be able to stand this kind of invasion in the end.In the 3th century, the tribes on the east bank would return to the Ili area and become the vassals of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.There were more than 17 households and [-] people in these tribes returning to the east, but in just a few months, under the pursuit of the Tsarist Russian army, half of them died on the way home.

In addition, because of poor communication with the Western tribes, and most importantly, the Volga River did not freeze that year, so that the Western tribes could not make the trip, and eventually became serfs in Tsarist Russia.

On this day, Punchuk, the great Khan of the Torgut tribe, heard the report from his subordinates and couldn't help but became furious: "They are really bullying people too much!"

He couldn't help being angry. After the tribe moved to the Volga River Basin, in addition to grazing, they also cultivated farmland and diverted water for irrigation to make up for the lack of grazing.But unexpectedly, when the harvest was about to be harvested, the two khanates in the south almost unanimously sent troops to burn, kill and loot.

"Father Khan, why don't you ask the Tsar for help?" Seeing how angry Penchuk Khan was, his son Ayuqi, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, immediately suggested.

Nominally, they were allied with Tsarist Russia.

Upon hearing this, Pengchuk glanced at his naive son, and couldn't help shouting angrily, "What do you think the Tsar is? It's an unfamiliar wolf that can swallow our tribe, you know?"

What made him even more intolerable was that the Tsar stipulated that the words "servants" and "subjects" must be used in the memorials given to him by Torgut Khan.This is not an ally. They are treated like slaves, even worse than slaves. They are trying every means to squeeze the Torgut tribe.

After being scolded by his father Khan, Ayuqi bowed his head and remained silent.As a young man, he will always subdue the strong.Among the surrounding forces, Tsarist Russia is the strongest, so he has the most favorable impression.

For this son, Punchuk has high hopes.Therefore, he simply stopped pampering him, and told his son the cruel reality, including those squeezed by Tsarist Russia, in full detail, revealing how nakedly drinking blood was behind those deals.

Ayuqi didn't expect it to be like this, and suddenly became very angry, blushed, and said angrily to Punchuk: "Father, turn it back!"

Hearing this, Penchuk did not reply immediately, but showed a thoughtful expression.After a while, he said: "Not only our Torghut tribe suffered greatly from Tsarist Russia, but also the Don River Cossacks in the west. If we can unite them, there may be hope."

In the original history, about ten years later, it was the Don Cossacks who could not bear the oppression of Tsarist Russia and rebelled under the leadership of Stepan Razin. It was a famous uprising in history.

However, it failed in the end. According to the experience of later generations: the spontaneity of the peasant uprising, the limitation and dispersion of its actions, the lack of centralized and unified command, the leaders repeatedly made strategic mistakes, and they had illusions about the tsar; Not as good as the Tsarist Russian army, the equipment of the rebel army is much worse than that of the Tsarist Russian army; their military quality is poor, and their discipline is not strict.

At this time, after Punchuk finished speaking, he finally sighed, obviously not optimistic.For them, Tsarist Russia is too powerful!
Suddenly, he turned his head to look towards the east, frowned and did not speak.

Seeing him like this, Ayuqi also turned his head to look to the east, but couldn't see anything, and finally couldn't help but asked, "Father Khan, what are you looking at?"

"I heard that the east side, our ancestral land, has undergone earth-shaking changes. If we move back, will it be better than the current life?" Peng Chuke has somewhat heard about the things in the east, but It was too far away, and there were all kinds of news, which made it a little difficult for him to distinguish.

Some say that Gushi Khan has led troops to Qinghai-Tibet, and his power has greatly increased; but some say that the Zhungeer tribe has wolf ambitions and annexed other tribes; The Geer Department was completely wiped out...

Hehe, how is this possible? Although I have never dealt with the Ming Dynasty, I heard from my parents that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was only more powerful than the two generations of emperors who founded the country. The whole army was wiped out, and even the emperor himself was captured.Since then, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty has never come out of his palace, so how could he be so powerful when he personally conquered?
Thinking of this, Pengchuk decided in his heart that he still wanted to go to Gushi Khan for refuge.After all, Gushi Khan was a famous sweat who was once the common sweat of all their tribes.

However, it is by no means an easy task to relocate the whole family!Who would want to leave their homeland if it were possible?
He was thinking about it when suddenly he heard Ayuqi yelling: "Father Khan, someone is here!"

Hearing this, Penchuk looked up and followed his son's pointing, and saw a troop of cavalry galloping towards the grassland in the distance.

This is the core of the Torghut Department. It is impossible for the cavalry of other forces to come here like this, and they can only come here under the leadership of his subordinates.

Looking at the red color of the cavalry army, Punchuk couldn't help but frowned, thinking in his heart: he came from the north, looking at his clothes, he wasn't from the Tsarist Russian army, nor from his tribe, so where could he be a "guest"?
At this time, he really had to ask the guests a question.Including Tsarist Russia, those are actually not guests, but villains!

Or when they were approaching Wang Zhang's side, a rider left the team and came galloping.

Penchuk's guards were naturally vigilant, and the cavalry on the periphery just made contact with that cavalry and let them go.

As they got closer, Punchuk naturally recognized that the person galloping towards him was one of his confidantes.As if there was something extremely happy, that face was about to burst into laughter.Unable to bear it, he snorted, "Why are you so happy?"

In just a short time, the man had already galloped close, reined in his horse and stopped abruptly. Before the horse's front hooves fell, he couldn't wait to jump off the horse, hurried a few steps, and said to Punchuk: "Khan, the distinguished guest is here. Profusely, the distinguished guest is here..."

While speaking, he pointed to the cavalry behind him that had slowed down and approached.

"What honorable guest?" Seeing him like this, Pengchuk became even more depressed, and immediately shouted in a cold voice.

As far as the current situation of the Torghut Ministry is concerned, where does the distinguished guest come from?

Ayuqi on the side was also very curious, and couldn't help interjecting: "Where is this distinguished guest?"

"The Ming Army, the Ming Dynasty's cavalry!" The man quickly replied, "They have occupied Samara Fort."

"..." Upon hearing this, both Ayuqi and Peng Chuke were taken aback, and then froze.

The legendary Ming army actually came here and captured Samara Fort. Are they really that powerful?
Pengchuk quickly came to his senses, but he was not very happy. The Ming army came, so what?Even if they beat off the hungry wolf, who knows if a tiger came?
As he was thinking about it, his subordinate hurriedly reported another piece of good news: "Khan, that general of the Ming army belongs to our Turghut department!"
