Chapter 1223: Attack on the Western World

The seventeenth century was an important time node for the world, a great collision between several major civilizations, and whoever could occupy the advantage would become the mainstream of the world in the future, and his rules would become a critical moment in the world's rules.

Historically, there is no doubt that the West is rising and the East is declining, but the decline of the East is not that our civilization is not advanced, but that its evolution has been interrupted.

By this time, the Portuguese and Spaniards had trampled on the Mayan civilization and defeated the Mughals, disqualifying India from competition. In another ten years, the Battle of Vienna and the defeat of the Ottomans will also lead to the decline of the Islamic world, and the West will gradually change from the countryside of the world to the mainstream of the world.

However, at this time, the East has not yet been trampled under the feet of the West, and the re-emerging Ming Dynasty will become the guardian of Eastern civilization and confront the West.

Although at this time, the West was already aggressive, the Western European powers came from the sea, and the Rakshasa people came from the land, constantly compressing the living space of the Eastern civilization, but because of the re-emergence of the Ming Dynasty, the original world was also affected, and there was a deviation unconsciously.

After the Zungar Khanate was defeated by the Qing and Jin, more than 100,000 remnants of the Zungar Khanate and more than 60,000 troops defeated more than 200 Cossacks blocked by the Tyumen and migrated to the banks of the Volga River to join the Turkut Division, one of the four nomadic tribes of Warat.

Their nomadic area is nominally the territory of the Rakshasa Kingdom, but in fact, the Rakshasa Kingdom does not have the ability to control such a vast land, and the Rakshasa Kingdom only makes the nomadic Mongolian tribes here loyal to them.

The arrival of the Dzungar tribe strengthened the power of the Mongols along the Volga River and broke the original balance, but the Rakshasa country was very powerful after all, and the Dzungar tribe who moved here did not dare to do anything.

Under the pressure of the Rakshasa State, the Zungar Khan monks had no choice but to cancel the title of Khan, and like the Turghut tribe and other Mongolian tribes in the Rakshasa Kingdom, they paid taxes to the Rakshasa State and sent young men to help the Rakshasa Kingdom fight.

This made them realize that they had not had a better time than surrendering to the Manchus and the Jin State after they had fled to the west.

Compared with the attitude of the Jin and Qing Dynasties towards the Mongolian union, the Rakshasas were naked oppression and exploitation of Mongolia, which made the Junggar tribe, which was hegemonic in Moxi, full of complaints against the Rakshasas.

But even if they are resentful, have no strength, and have no chance, they can only be oppressed obediently.

However, at this time, an opportunity was sent to the monks, and the opponent of the Rakshasas, Poland, which the Mongols called Poreel, took the initiative to find them and wanted to help them become independent from the Rakshasa country.

Since the rise of the Rakshasa State, Poland has become one of his main rivals, and the two countries have fought each other several times, which can be described as a feud.

In May 1648, a major uprising broke out in Polish-controlled Ukraine, which swept through the territory of Ukraine and expanded to Belarus in November.

After six years of war between Poland and the rebels, no longer able to fight, a compromise was reached on December 18, 1653 on the basis of the Treaty of Zborov, in which Poland allowed the Ukrainian Cossacks to establish an autonomous state, the Polish army was not allowed to enter the territory, the number of registered Cossacks was increased to 40,000, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church was restored, and the expelled Polish landowners could return to their homes.

While Poland reached a compromise with the rebel army, the Rakshasa saw the opportunity for both Poland and Ukraine to lose and launched the war to annex Ukraine.

In 1654, the Rakshasa gathered more than 100,000 troops and attacked Poland in three ways.

Historically, the Turkuts on the Volga River also participated in this war, but they followed the orders of the Rakshasa and attacked Poland.

Poland tried unsuccessfully to persuade the Turks to move westward to Polish-controlled western Ukraine, and to help Poland fight against the Rakshasa State.

Here, however, history changed a little, and under the persuasion of the monks, the Mongol tribes on the Volga River decided to side with Poland.

After the fall of the Golden Horde, various parts of Mongolia were divided into several khanates such as the Kazan Khanate, the Astrakhan Khanate, and the Siberian Khanate, but now most of them have been annexed by the Rakshasa State, but although the Khanate is gone, there are still many Mongolian tribes in the territory of the Rakshasa State.

This time, the Rakshasa Kingdom started a war with Poland, and the Rakshasas, who were aware of the growth of the Mongols' power in the Volga region, ordered the cavalry of several Mongolian tribes such as the Turghut Department and the Junggar Department to go to help in the war, firstly to attack Poland, and secondly, to consume the strength of the Mongols, so as to maintain the control of the Rakshasa Kingdom over the Volga region.

Because of the intention of depleting the Mongols, the Rakshasa State recruited too many young and strong people this time, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the Mongol tribes, and the monks took advantage of the opportunity of the horse armies of the various tribes to gather in the south of the Volga River to instigate the Turghut tribe to rebuild the Kipchak Khanate, which is the famous Golden Horde in history, and get rid of the rule of the Rakshasas.

If it was another time, the chances of success of the monks were very small, but at this time, the main forces of the Rakshasas were fighting against Poland, so they were given the opportunity, and as a result, the conquest of the Rakshasa country became an alliance of the Mongolian tribes along the Volga, and the Ayuqi Khan of the Turghut tribe was honored as the Great Khan of the Mongols.

Their actions immediately aroused the wrath of the Rakshasas, who mobilized the Cossacks to suppress them, while the Mongol tribes contacted the large and small Yuz in Central Asia that had been attacked by the Rakshasas to fight against the Rakshasa together.

Compared with Yarkand, the Rakshasa Kingdom continues to expand eastward, and the threat formed by it is greater for the big and small Yuzi, so they chose to fight against the Rakshasa Kingdom first, after all, they were once separated from the Golden Horde.

It's just that in this way, the deployment of the Jin State was disrupted, and both the big and small Yuzi went to help the Golden Horde, and the plan to flank Yarkand was affected.

Eliminating Yarkand is an important national policy of the Jin State, Haoge listened to Sun Kewang's words, and couldn't help frowning: "Sun Qing means that the plan to attack Yarkand on both sides can't be realized?" ”

Sun Kewang shook his head, "Returning to Your Majesty, it has indeed been affected a little, now only Zhongyuzi can send 7,000 troops, and the flanking attack will definitely not be realized, and the Western Front can only play a role in containing at most." ”

"Will the plan to destroy Yarkand be greatly affected, and will it still be able to send troops on time?" Meng Qiaofang couldn't help but ask.

Whether the trade route to the west of the Jin State can be unimpeded due to the elimination of Yarkand relations is of great importance to the Jin State. With the current situation of the Jin State, they can only seek a breakthrough in the west, and if the west cannot break the situation, they will not be able to fight against the Ming Dynasty for a long time.

"Your Majesty, and all my colleagues don't have to worry too much, the plan will not be affected, just a certain increase in troops, it is inevitable!" Sun Kewang saw several people looking at him, and hurriedly said: "Since last year, the minister has been constantly sending fine works to enter Yarkand as merchants, collect intelligence, and also inquire about information from merchants in the Western Regions, and have basically figured out the situation in Yarkand. ”

Hearing him say this, Hauge relaxed a little and asked, "How is the situation in Yarkand?" Is it good to fight? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, after the investigation of the ministers, Yarkand is already in the waning mountains, and the struggle between the Black Mountain faction and the White Mountain faction within them is fierce, among which the Black Mountain faction is stronger, and the White Mountain faction is weaker, and the contradictions between the two factions are very acute.

Haoge listened and nodded, "Okay, the matter of contacting the Baishan faction will be handed over to Sun Qing to handle." The cabinet is preparing to mobilize a large army, and I hope that by the end of this year, we will be able to sweep away Yarkand and open up trade routes. ”
