In October of the sixth year of Tianshun, Datong Town.

With the elite sentries of the Tiance Army and the Ming Army of Shanxi Province, the soldiers who did not collect the soldiers went north to attack, and successively collected intelligence on all aspects of the Tatar Department.

Although the Tatar Department also sent iron cavalry to intercept the Ming army and soldiers, it was only in vain to face the fierce Tiance army's sharp whistles and not collect soldiers at night, and in the face of the Ming army of Shanxi that was not afraid of death, it could only be in vain.

In response to this, the Tatar Uktu Khan was furious and even quickened the pace of arming the war.

With the experience of Warabu and Yexian, he knew that Liu Juntao, the governor of Shanxi, was a figure who killed everything, even if he stayed on the prairie with peace of mind, then Liu Juntao would not rest assured that he would be safe and secure in his development strength.

For that Liu Juntao, any force that might threaten the Ming Dynasty should be destroyed!

"Could it be that there can only be the Ming family in this world!"

I am unwilling to do so, and I have a dream of rebuilding the glory of Dayuan, just like any Han person with ambition dreams of rebuilding the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties, lingering!

This is also a lifelong dream.

In the face of Liu Juntao's threat, Polai immediately sent a delegation to Hamiwei and made contact with the leader of the Bhakeli tribe who occupied Hamiwei.

The plan was simple, to establish an alliance with the leader of the Brackli tribe, Gaslan, to jointly resist the attack from the Ming Dynasty.

Although the Tatar Ministry is accumulating strength, it has not yet occupied a piece of territory in the Ming Dynasty, and the previous southward invasion has also been repulsed, so he believes that he is not the first threat in the hearts of the Ming monarchs and Liu Juntao.

And the leader of the Grakli tribe who has occupied Hamiwei is different, he has really captured the territory of the Ming Dynasty, which can be said to be a great shame for the Ming Dynasty, which has always been strong in foreign wars.

Therefore, after establishing an alliance with it, he can not only obtain a strong foreign aid, but also push the leader of the Grakli tribe to the table, attracting the anger of the Ming monarchs and Liu Juntao to the greatest extent, and buying the most time for the Tatar department to prepare.

After the mission departed, he began to frequently mobilize his troops and horses.

At this time, the army of iron cavalry in the Tatar department had swelled to 400,000, including 10,000 elite of the cowardly Xue army, and thousands of heavy armored iron cavalry guarded by the Great Khan.

Of course, according to the strength of the Tatar department, it is impossible to gather 400,000 iron cavalry, of which only 250,000 iron cavalry were prepared by the Tatar tribes with all their might, and the remaining 150,000 iron cavalry were forced to send troops by relying on the might of the Tatar department.

Moreover, he also ordered these tribes, which had already submitted to the Tatar tribes, not only to send troops, but also to come up with a large amount of grain, grass, and supplies.

In this way, he weakened the strength of the tribes around the Tatar tribe to the greatest extent, and at the same time further strengthened his own strength.

However, these practices also made the tribes that submitted to the Tatars resentful, and at this time they were only afraid of the strength of the Tatars and did not dare to resist.

Even the tribes within the Tatar Department are also discussing, and many tribes believe that this move is repeating the mistakes of the Warat Department, and even if the Tatar Department has 400,000 iron cavalry, it is impossible to defeat the Ming Dynasty, and it is impossible to defeat the Tiance Army.

These voices reached the ears of the bold, which also made him angry, and immediately launched an inventory among the various departments, took down all the tribal nobles who did not like him, and then executed them for various reasons.

This has been the first time that the nobles of the various tribes have been purged by the Porla, and it can be said that the people who have resisted the most fiercely against the Porlay among the various tribes of the Tatar tribe have become fertilizer on the steppe.

At this point, no one in the entire Tatar Ministry dared to question the order of the Lai Lai, which also made the Lai feel the majesty and supreme authority that he had never felt before, and made the Lai realize that maybe the moment for him to fully challenge the Ming Dynasty was coming!

At the same time, after receiving the Tatar mission, the head of the Grakli tribe, Gathlan, was also very excited.

After all, the majesty of the Ming Dynasty has always been like a snow-capped mountain, pressing on his heart, even if he wants to dominate the world and establish a career like his ancestors, but the reality also makes him frightened, for fear that the Ming Dynasty will gather a large army to come to conquer.

However, what made Jiaslan happy was that the Ming court first sent an edict asking for guilt, and then there was no substantive action, but the Ming army around Hamiwei strengthened its defense, and Daming made it clear that he was not ready to send troops to Hamiwei.

Immediately afterwards, the Tatar Ministry sent a mission, which sent a strong foreign aid to the Ganthran.

Although the Tatars were defeated by the Ming Dynasty several times, but the strength is still the same, it is said that now the Tatar Department is more than 400,000 iron cavalry, the territory is very vast, the west borders with the Hamiwei they occupy, and the east has begun to encroach on the Liaodong region of the Ming Dynasty.

"Now I can consolidate my territory with peace of mind!"

With this in mind, Gathlan began to hoard food and grass in Hamiwei, fortify the city, and begin to clear the remaining enemies around Hamiwei.

The people of Hamiwei were not spared, and under the order of Gaslan, tens of thousands of troops began to forcibly collect money and grain and capture strong men in the Hamiwei area, and for a time the entire [new] Hamiwei area was in chaos.

In just a few months, Gathlan expanded his army of tens of thousands to 120,000, and hoarded enough money and food for the army to eat for several months.

Although most of these 120,000 troops are not like the Tatar Army, most of them are iron cavalry troops, but there are also 40,000 iron cavalry, and the remaining 80,000 troops are mostly elite soldiers.

Even the Hami Acropolis, which had been in disrepair for a long time, was almost repaired, although it was still much worse than the Hami Acropolis in its heyday, but it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Gan Gaslan was also confident that he could resist the first attack of the Ming army with its strong city.

However, it is not the character of Jia Silan to be beaten passively, so he began to issue a rallying order to the various Wuer tribes in the northern Xinjiang region, claiming that he had occupied Hamiwei and completely opened the door to the eastward into the Central Plains, and all the tribes could follow under their own banners, kill into the Central Plains in one fell swoop, and rebuild the glory of their ancestors!

After this order was issued, the various tribes of the Vultures in the northern frontier were ready to move, and even though several tribes responded with troops, these tribes gathered tens of thousands of troops and began to march east into Hamiwei, preparing to fight against Gathlan.

With these tribes taking the lead, all the tribes of the Wu'er in northern Xinjiang began to mobilize, hundreds of tribes began to act one after another, and soldiers, horses, money, grain, and tribes began to roll towards Hamiwei like a torrent.

In just one month, Gaslan gained a new army of 170,000 in Hamiwei, plus his own 120,000 troops, and more than 10,000 troops who arrived in Hamiwei first, at this time Ganslan had gathered 300,000 troops, including 90,000 iron cavalry and 210,000 infantry!

At the same time, he also carefully selected elite soldiers and strong generals from these large armies and formed a direct Saint Sect Guard.

This Holy Sect Guards army included 10,000 heavily armored iron cavalry and 20,000 heavy armored infantry, which were the strongest elite soldiers among the various tribes of the Wu'er in the entire Western Regions.

At the beginning, the tribes did not agree to hand over their strongest soldiers and horses and merge them together to form the Holy Sect Guards, after all, these soldiers and horses were the existence of the tribes to "save their lives".

However, after only one sentence, the tribes surrendered their elite soldiers: "This battle is not only to expand the territory of our tribes, but also to spread the Holy Religion into the Central Plains, and to make the Central Plains worship hundreds of millions of people at the feet of Allah!" ”

At this time, Hui~Christianity, that is, the later generations of Islam~Lanism has begun to spread in the Western Regions, especially the various tribes of the Vultures regard Islam~Christianity as a holy religion, and even some extreme tribes believe that their own tribes can be exterminated, but the Holy Religion cannot be violated!

It is precisely under the inspiration of religion that the weakest of the three tribes of the Ming Dynasty, the Tatar Tribe, and the Fearful Tribes, Gan Gaslan, has become a powerful force that can compete with the two great powers of the Ming Dynasty and the Tatar Tribe!

At this time, the information of the Tatar Ministry and Hamiwei had been sent to Liu Juntao one after another.

For the Tatar Department, Liu Juntao does not have too much to worry about, even if the Tatar Department is strong, with 400,000 iron horsemen eyeing him, but for Liu Juntao, he also has more than 100,000 invincible Tiance Army soldiers in his hands, not counting the elite soldiers he can mobilize from Shanxi.

If the Tatar tribe really went south, they would directly lead the army to meet the battle, and there was nothing to worry about.

But for Hamiwei, Liu Juntao's heart was full of worries.

This is not because of how powerful the Gazlan is, Liu Juntao is confident in the Tiance Army, and can rely on elite soldiers and firearms to make any Tartar army crushed!

However, the Islam brought by the Department of Gaslan made Liu Juntao worried, and later Liu Juntao did not have a good impression of the Green ~ Sect, thinking that this was a cult ~ religion dressed in a religious garb!

Throughout history, whether ancient or modern, as long as it is a country that allows the green ~ religion to occupy the active position, none of them is a powerful country with rich civilization, all of them are chaotic, ignorant, and backward, just look at the Central ~ East in later generations.

Therefore, this time the rise of Gathlan, its military strength did not worry Liu Juntao too much, at best, his troops echoed the Tatar department, which was a little tricky.

What worries Liu Juntao the most is this Islam, in Liu Juntao's words, this is a rat, ready to jump into the cauldron of Huaxia, which will be a disaster for thousands of years!

Just when Liu Juntao was worried about this, the Ministry of Intelligence and the Ministry of Military sent urgent military information almost at the same time: the Tatar Ministry began to gather troops and horses, and there were signs of attacking Guangning and other places in Liaodong!
