Ming Zuo

Chapter 1714 The X Factor
On the shore of Lake Aibi near Bole, the Junggar tribe and the Yarkand Khanate have been confronting each other for a long time.

Behind the Junggar Department, the army of the Heshuo Special Department is stationed at the Alashan Pass, eyeing them.

The area around the Ili River Valley is a rare place in the Western Regions that is rich in water and grass, so both sides attach great importance to this place, and there is no room for loss.

"The Yarkand people have received news that they plan to launch an attack in three days. If we send troops together, we have a great chance of winning."

Erdenihun, the son of Ozirtu Khan, was in charge of contacting the Yarkant Khanate and brought exciting news.

The war has been going on for too long, and the outcome has not been decided for a long time, which makes Oziltu Khan very worried.

In the Western Regions, there are many tribes and people are treacherous. He has been away from his old nest for too long, and he is afraid that something will happen.

If you haven't wiped out the Junggar tribe, your family's foundation has been severely damaged first.

"Yarqiang people are not trustworthy, and those heretics are probably using us."

Ozirtuhan's other son, Iraguk Sanban, raised objections.

There is a certain truth to what he said.

In any case, Heshuote and Junggar are both Mongolians and both believe in Buddhism.

But the pagans in Yarkand naturally seemed out of place.

Everyone has seen the infiltration of Islam into the Western Regions over the years, and there are many people who are worried.

However, the third class of Iraguk also has its own little abacus.

After Oziertu Khan, who can inherit the Khan position, the fight between his three sons is also very fierce.

At present, it seems that Erdeni Hun has the best hope.

He is the eldest son, and he has won the trust of Oziltu Khan, and his ability is also very good.

But Galedama and Iraguk Sanban are also outstanding.

In particular, Galdama is known as the God of War, and it is the Optimus Prime Stone that maintains the safety of Heshuote.

However, Gal Dama's desire for power is not serious, and he prefers to lead troops in battle. Now he is on the front line of confrontation with the Junggar tribe.

The third class of Yiraguk couldn't restrain his ambition, and he wanted to compete with Erdenikun in everything.

But it's clear that his ambitions were hit hard from the start.

Oziltu Khan valued Erdenikun more than him.

"At present, our biggest enemy is the Junggar tribe. After we eliminate Batur Huntaiji, we will compete with the Yarkand people."

Obviously, Oziltu Khan is also ambitious.

In particular, Gushi Khan died at the hands of Batuer Huntaiji, which made him feel the righteousness of revenge.

Oziltu Khan personally ordered Erdenikun to lead an army of [-] to march westward immediately and join the battlefield.

Regarding this situation, the third squad of Iraguk was furious.

"Erdenihun must not be allowed to succeed, otherwise, we will die without a place to die."

The third class of Yiraguk wants to seize power, and Erdenihun is not a kind person.

Now that Oziltu Khan is pressing down, the brothers can still maintain a superficial calm.Once he dies, Erdeni Hun, who inherits the Khan position, will definitely kill him.

In a land of tigers and wolves like the Western Regions, there is no room for kind people to survive.

In order to survive, for the sake of power, you must do everything you can.

The third squad of Iraguk secretly sent people to Lake Aibi to inform Batur Huntaiji of the Heshuo Special Division's marching plan.

As for the loss of the Heshuo Special Department because of this, whether it will be completely destroyed, he simply can't care about it.

By Lake Aibi, Batuer Huntaiji was also annoyed.

Originally, I had agreed with Liang Yue to attack the Yarkand Khanate from both sides, and established the situation in the Western Regions in one fell swoop.

As a result, Liang Yue's flanking attack was a flanking attack, but the circle around him was a bit big.Although the income will be extremely rich once it succeeds, Batuer Huntaiji is very doubtful whether the Junggar Department can wait until that time.

He also didn't expect Abdullah to be so difficult to deal with, making full use of the terrain of the Yili River Valley to block his attacks several times.

The artillery and muskets provided by the Russians could not take advantage of the superior terrain at all, and the fanatical Islamists were not afraid of death in battle.

He already knew the news that Heshuo's special forces were attacking from behind. Although he also sent soldiers and horses to resist, he knew very well that once the troops were divided, they would be defeated.

In the Western Regions, although the Junggar tribe is the strongest, it is not to the extent that it overwhelms the others.

At least the Yerkand Khanate and the Heshuote Department are united, and the Junggar Department will be difficult to parry.

Where is the breaking point?
"It is impossible for Yaerqiang to win quickly, but our territory cannot be lost. Father Khan, in the opinion of my son and minister, we should return to the teacher quickly."

Zhuote Babatur is mature and prudent, he doesn't think about victory, but first thinks about defeat.

His mind is not difficult to guess.

After the death of Chechen, he was the eldest son of Batur Huntaiji, the legitimate future heir of the Junggar tribe.

Of course he didn't want to see his hometown being attacked by Heshuo's special department, and he wanted to stabilize the basic market first.

Moreover, compared with the difficult-to-attack Ili River Valley, the Junggar tribe still has a great advantage in the fierce battle with the Heshuote tribe on the Great Plains.

His words were very reasonable, and Batur Huntaiji was quite moved.

When Seng Ge saw it, he jumped out quickly.

"The Yarkand people have already deployed troops in front, and they can rush over at any time. If we retreat rashly, the Yarkand people will take advantage of the situation to chase and kill them. Once we lose our position, it will be a complete and complete defeat."

Among the several sons of Batuer Huntaiji, they were also at odds with each other.

Everyone is eyeing Khan, and they all feel that they have a chance.

Then the other brothers are, of course, enemies of life and death.

If possible, Seng Ge wished he could swing his knife on the spot and chop off Zhuote Babatur's head.

As for the six-year-old Galdan, who was held in Yumu Aga's arms at this time, Sangge completely ignored him.

He is not a time traveler, so how could he know that this little kid brother is the real hero in the future.

What he said was also very reasonable, which made Batur Hun Taiji very difficult.

"When fighting with a large army, you should avoid hesitation, and you will change if you are late. Father Khan, whether you are advancing or retreating, you need to make up your mind quickly."

Zhuote Babatur still has a fair heart. After all, in his cognition, everything in the Junggar tribe in the future is his own.

There are only two options before the Junggar Ministry.

Forward or backward, the inferred result is no different.

How to make a choice can only be made by Batur Hun Taiji.

In the end, Batur Huntaiji chose to follow Zhuote Babatur's opinion.

"After the left-wing ten thousand households are cut off, the rest of the soldiers and horses pack up their bags and head back to defeat the Heshuo Special Division first."

Batuer Huntaiji turned the Junggar tribe into the overlord of the Western Regions with his own power, with unparalleled authority.He gave an order, and no one can change it.

So the Junggar tribe immediately turned around, preparing to face the Heshuo Te tribe who came in a hurry.

As for the Yeerqiang Khanate behind them, a thousand households of soldiers and horses were left behind to stop them.

Seng Ge was very dissatisfied with this situation.

In case the Heshuo Special Department is defeated, the Junggar Department will really have no opponents in the Western Regions.

The most terrible thing is that the plan to return to the army was proposed by Zhuote Babatur.Once he wins, this guy's reputation will go up to a higher level.

Seng Ge also chose to rebel.

He sent someone to secretly meet Abdullah and inform the Junggar Ministry of the action.
