Daming: I help my wife be the empress

The first Diba of the Heshuot Khanate has greater power. He is the actual controller of the current Ganden Phodrang regime and is responsible for most of the government affairs of the Khanate on weekdays.

Its name is Suonan Qunpei, also known as Suonan Raodan.

He was originally an attendant of the fourth Dalai Lama. When the Zangba Khan regime suppressed the Gelug Sect, he acted as a messenger to seek help from Qinghai Tumed Department and made great contributions to the Gelug Sect.

Later, together with the [-]th Panchen Lama, he found the reincarnation of the [-]th Dalai Lama, the [-]th Dalai Lama. In addition, his family was a long-standing Tibetan aristocrat with a deep foundation, so he became the Diba of the Gelug Sect.

That is, the regent (big steward) of the Ganden Phodrang regime of the Gelug Sect.

Gushi Khan's successful entry into Tibet could be said to have united with the fifth Dalai Lama, rather it could be said to have united with Sonam Qunpei.In other words, the actual role played by Sonam Chopel is greater than that of the Fifth Dalai Lama.

Because the fifth Dalai Lama, Ngawang Luosang Gyatso, was only in his twenties at that time, he was still very young and had not really grasped the power of the Gelug Sect.

Gushri Khan is actually still in a cooperative relationship with Sonam Qunpei in the Khanate, and this relationship is in a rather good state.

Although Suonan Qunpei did not hold much military power, Gushi Khan knew how important the impact of the war with Ming was. Now that something happened, of course he had to consult with Suonan Qunpei.

Three years ago, Gushri Khan decided to rebuild the Potala Palace, and Sonam Qunpei was in charge of the matter, so he has been living in the Potala Palace.

"But this tail is not easy to harvest." Gushi Khan sighed again, "Don't even think about owning the Hehuang area, and I am afraid that even Kham will lose a large part.

He heard Gushi Khan's meaning-if he wanted to claim peace from the Ming Dynasty, he would inevitably lose a large area of ​​​​tax-heavy land.Without tax support, the Khanate would not be able to support so many soldiers. Without enough elite soldiers, the rule of him and the Gelug faction would be very dangerous.

Sonam Qunpei is 54 years old this year, his beard and hair are now white, and his figure looks a bit fat.

If there are too few troops guarding Tibet, it is possible for the Kagyu faction to contact Bhutan and Ladakh to overthrow the joint rule of Gushri Khan and the Gelug faction.

Finally, Gushi Khan said: "The strength of the Ming army has exceeded my expectations. This battle cannot be fought any longer. I came here to discuss how to end it."

However, considering the cost of defense and governance, and the ideas of the Zhungeer Ministry, Daming did not intend to acquire all the territory of the Heshuo Special Ministry for this expansion, but only a part of it...
Nanjing.

After Suonan Qunpei left the Golden Tent, Gushi Khan sent military orders to Qinghai and Kangba areas to order all ministries to withdraw their troops and avoid the war.

On the one hand, troops were sent to sweep up the pastures that belonged to the small tribes of the Allied Forces such as the Heshuo Special Forces;

As for the battle report, he didn't show it to Sonan Qunpei.

The Heshuot Khanate is not only owned by the Borjijin family, nor is it only owned by the Mongolian nobles; it also belongs to the Gelug Sect and the Tibetan nobles.

Although the Gelug faction is currently in power in Qinghai-Tibet, the combined strength of other factions is not small.

He entered the golden tent, first saluted Gushi Khan, and then said: "King Khan said that I want to discuss the war with the Ming Dynasty?"

These Buddhists all own many monasteries, and the monasteries own land, pastures and household registrations, similar to feudal minor nobles.

Fortunately, the Golden Tent is not far from the Potala Palace, and it didn't take long for Suonan Qunpei to come over.

So, after a little consideration, Sonam Qunpei said, "I will talk to the Dalai Lama about using a part of the taxes paid to support monasteries in Tibet to raise soldiers.

After hearing this, Sonan Qunpei frowned.

In addition, it has only been a few years since the civil strife caused by the suppression of the Kagyu sect after the establishment of the Heshuote Khanate, there are still many Kagyu sect forces remaining in the actual territory.

"Not bad." Gushi Khan nodded, and then told about the defeats in Qinghai.

The two battalions of the Qinghai Garrison were barely usable after preliminary training.

In the northwest direction, the Khan King Abdullah of the Yarkand Khanate can barely be regarded as a hero. Therefore, the Yarkand Khanate is not weak in national strength and military strength, and there are some disputes on the border between the two Khanates.

Therefore, at this time, you have to divide up some of the benefits, and everyone will tide over the difficulties together. You can't let Gushi Khan resist alone, and he won't be able to bear it.

Gushri Khan knew very well that these Buddhist sects were not easy to get along with, and if they wanted their help, they would have to divide power and interests among them.

Suonan Qunpei's cooperation with Gushi Khan has always been quite pleasant, and Gushi Khan has also explained the current stakes clearly just now.

It is an important source of taxation for the Khanate. If you lose too much, you may not be able to raise many soldiers and horses in Qinghai.

The sects of Buddhism in Tibet are not limited to the Kagyu Sect (White Sect) and the Gelug Sect (Yellow Sect), but also other sects, such as the Nyingma Sect (Red Sect), Sakya Sect (Flower Sect) and so on.

Although the country is small, its military strength is not considered weak.

Without the support of Qinghai soldiers and horses, it would be difficult to guard against the three jackals in the west only with these soldiers and horses supported by Tibet. "

···
end of October.

But now besides this trick, he has no better way.

If the Heshuote Khanate lost too badly because of the war with Ming Dynasty, even if Ming Dynasty did not send troops to destroy it, it is very likely that it will be destroyed by Bhutan, Ladakh or Yarkand.

Because the surrounding environment of Heshuote Khanate is not so safe.

So he nodded and said, "That's it."

Sonam Qunpei did not quite agree with going to war with the Ming Dynasty, and he was also very clear about the current surrounding situation of the Heshuot Khanate. At this time, he heard that Gushri Khan had the idea of ​​​​stopping the war, and immediately nodded in agreement, "King Khan's wisdom is like a great sun. , we really can’t fight Ming Kingdom any longer.”

At the same time, Gelug was asked to send a lama as the main envoy, and an official of the Khanate as the deputy envoy, and formed a team of hundreds of envoys to go to Daming to seek peace.

In the northwest of Gansu, the Ming court was equally unresponsive.

In its southwest direction, there are two small countries ruled by the Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism, Bhutan and Ladakh.

It's just that this part of the tax can't raise many soldiers, and I'm afraid I have to ask other sects for help. "

Knowing that more than half of the soldiers in Qinghai had lost more than half of them, and that they had also lost successive battles in the Kham area (a large area on the border between Sichuan, Yunnan and Tibet, including Xikang), Sonam Qunpei knew that the fight could not continue.

Aimee Zhu and all the ministers of the Military Affairs Council considered that it would be difficult for Qinghai to launch military operations after winter, so they decided to use the second battalion as a guide, and sent two border guards and two town garrison troops to take over parts of Hainan and Haibei first, and initially established a military operation. rule directly.

However, the distance from Shigatse to Nanjing is nearly ten thousand li (not a straight line). If the envoys of the Heshuote Khanate want to reach Nanjing, they have to enter Sichuan and take the Yangtze River waterway, which may take three or four months.

Forbidden City, Hall of Martial Arts.

Aunt Zhu was standing in front of a large map of Northwest China, looking at it and thinking about it.

I saw that there was a faint red oblique line drawn on an area above, which was the place where Aimee Zhu decided to collect it after discussing with the ministers of military aircraft.

First more.

Correct the typo later.
