Nan Ming Sun Never Sets

Chapter 389 Historical Map
At the northern foot of Tianshan Mountain, Su Shuhuan's Northwest Front Army occupied Wucheng.

"Different from the arid and barren scene in my imagination, this place is very beautiful." Looking at the land, Su Shuhuan expressed his heartfelt emotion.

He is the only commander of the Ming army who is still fighting in the large army. He has fought for thousands of miles, reported countless victories, and his reputation even surpassed Jin Wang Li Dingguo.He has experienced many places and seen all kinds of beautiful or magnificent mountains and rivers, which made him more agree with His Majesty the Emperor's opinion that if you don't take these beautiful rivers and mountains, you must be to blame.

The area from the north of the Tianshan Mountains to the south of the Altai Mountains, adjacent to Khalkha Mongolia, was Moxi at this time.Moxi is the area where the Junggar tribe is active, and most of the Heshuote tribe moved to Qinghai and Uzang areas, while the rest, such as Duerbert and Huite, are not strong.

After the Junggar army was defeated in Mobei Mongolia, Moxi also fell into chaos.After Uliasutai Bai Mingxiu defeated Fei Yanggu, the Manchu and Qing tribes entered Moxi and began to integrate the Mongolian tribes in Moxi.The Northwest Army Corps led by Su Shuhuan also received orders to enter Mobei from Qinghai to guard against the movements of the Qing Dynasty and take over this extensive area.

In Mobei and even the Yarkand area south of the Tianshan Mountains, the Manchu and Qing tribes were extremely murderous.After Feiyanggu's defeat in Uliasutai, he was full of fear towards Bai Mingxiu. He wanted to reach Europe as soon as possible, and plundered everything they could get.After the Moxi Mongolian tribes heard about the fate of the Mobei Mongolian tribes, many people were very frightened and directly gave up their pastures and moved to other places.The Yeerqiang Khanate belonging to the Green Sect was already very weak, and after being attacked by the Manchu Qing, it quickly disappeared.

The Qing army basically took everything they could, gold and silver, cattle and sheep, camp tents and yurts, and even women.A large number of Mobei Mongols and Yarkands became slaves of the Qing Dynasty.In this regard, Da Ming didn't do anything to stop it. In fact, this was what Bai Mingxiu was happy to see.

Bai Mingxiu is already preparing to prevent the [-] garrison troops and tens of thousands of escorts and caravans from entering Mobei and Yarkand, and even the Legislative Yuan has made early preparations for administrative division. The south is the Western Regions Province.For the Manchus in another plane, this land may be regarded as their new territory, but for the Han people, they once lived and ruled in the Western Regions, so this is not a new territory.Moreover, there is a saying in this area that "the south returns to the north", although after the rampage and massacre of the Qing Dynasty, there may not be too many people left in the north and the south, and a large number of immigrants from the Central Plains will enter, but Bai Mingxiu Still according to the customary method, this place is divided into Mobei Province and Western Region Province.

Su Shuhuan is now a busy man in the military circles of the Ming Dynasty. After the Manchu and Qing Dynasties left the two provinces of Mobei and Western Regions, he needs to deal with the mess, gather the surviving people, gather them in the planned areas, build new towns, and divide pastoral areas , these are all he needs to do.

Moreover, the battle between the Ming army and the Heshuot Khanate was basically coming to an end.Although Su Shuhuan himself did not enter Uzang, he sent his capable teacher there.The roof of the world will be very challenging for any army, and the soldiers of the Ming army were also very uncomfortable after going to the plateau.However, Su Shuhuan had anticipated this situation before and ordered the soldiers to prepare in advance, so when they entered Uz-Tibet and began to confront the troops of the Heshuot Khanate, they did not have the slightest physical discomfort.

In the past few decades, the Heshuote Khanate has entered Qinghai and Uzang from Mobei all the way, defeated the Zangba Khan of the Kagyu sect, and formed a Mongolian-Tibetan dualism in Uzang, where Diba and Khan court went hand in hand. an administrative system.Originally, the Heshuote Khanate thought that they would sit back and relax, but they did not expect that the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which they claimed to be a vassal, fell. The Ming Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, did not accept their so-called vassalage, but directly fought against them.

In the battle for Qinghai, Su Shuhuan used less than 1 people to completely defeat the troops of the Heshuote Khanate in three months. After entering Uzang, he was repeatedly defeated.The most frightening thing is that Su Shuhuan mobilized some serfs. These mud legs, which could not be called human beings in the past, have no way to be controlled by the monks. Neither the Han court nor the monks know what the Han people used. Turn these docile "humanoid beasts" into enemies who dare to slash at them.

In September when Bai Mingxiu was about to enter school, the Ming army successively conquered the two important towns of Uzangri and La. It was declared dead immediately.

In order to deal with the aftermath, Bai Mingxiu specially appointed an A-level administrative talent hired by the system to go to Uzbekistan Province as the provincial governor.Obviously, this area also needs a relatively in-depth and thorough social reform. It may not be the same as that in the Central Plains, but improving the living conditions of the local general public and improving their living standards are the same as for the Central Plains people.

Including the soldiers of the Daming Army stationed there, when they repeatedly received political and ideological education, they emphasized military-civilian integration, emphasized military-civilian relations, and helped the poor local people to produce and live.

Su Shuhuan's troops then entered the Kingdom of Ladakh, which was split from the Tubo Dynasty in the 10th century. It had long been a tributary state of the Central Plains Dynasty, but it also often invaded Uzbekistan and the Western Regions militarily.It took the Ming army ten days to defeat Ladakh and announced that this area was incorporated into Uzbekistan Province.

These military conflicts taking place in the center of Asia are not known to the outside world.Bai Mingxiu had also fully realized the strength of the Ming army. During this period, the Ming army participated in many battles, and the size of the troops was very different from that of the opponent.For example, in the war to eliminate Ladakh, the Ming army dispatched a total of two battalions of troops, and even did not carry any heavy weapons because they went over mountains and mountains.In the past, due to the combat effectiveness of the Heshuote Khanate, there were often cases where a hundred or so Ming troops defeated thousands of Heshuote cavalry.

At the end of Guangfuyuan, the official territory of the Ming Dynasty had completely covered the territory of the Qing Empire at its peak, and it also occupied more and larger territories.These did not stop the Ming Dynasty from longing for more living space and land. On the one hand, the domestic industrialization and economic construction were in full swing, and the small but powerful Ming army continued to strive for new territories overseas.The new colonial empire, on which the sun never sets, is showing its minions more and more.

　In fact, it is possible to write a very long article about the acquisition of the western region, but after thinking about it, I decided not to cause possible trouble for myself, and let it go.
