Lu Xiangsheng gave in to the cavalry to clean up the battlefield, and the 20,000 cavalry soldiers chased directly in two ways. All the way to the north side of the quasi-large desert basin, Lu Xiangsheng asked Liu Fangliang and Tian Jianxiu to lead the troops, and on the south side, Lu Xiangsheng himself took Yuan Chongdi. The cavalry of the two roads fought vigorously day and night, and when they encountered the resistance of the squad, they directly outflanked and eliminated, and when they encountered the resistance of the squad, they first bombarded with small cannons, and when they broke up the formation, they went up to slash and kill, only to beat the Mughal soldiers to cry wolf and howl, and their souls were scattered.

Lu Xiangsheng chased all the way to Yining, surrounded Yining City with cavalry on all sides, and without waiting for the infantry cavalry to arrive, he directly blew up the four city gate towers with the mortars he carried, and then issued an ultimatum to order surrender. Half an hour later, Timur Khan, the master of the Mughal people, led the crowd out to surrender, expressing his willingness to pay allegiance to the Ming Dynasty.

After talking with little Timur Khan, Lu Xiangsheng learned why these people took the initiative to attack the Ming Dynasty. It turned out that since the rise of the Ming Dynasty and the retreat of the Mongols to the steppe, the Chahatai Khanate in the west has gradually split, and some of them began to abandon the original shamanism and primitive beliefs and convert to *** religion, and later the Great Khan also began to believe in *** religion, and began to oppress those who did not believe. The ancestors of the little Timur Khan were expelled by the Great Khan because they were unwilling to convert to *** religion, and they brought their own people here. I didn't expect that after coming here, the east and west are the Mongols who converted to religion, and I heard that there was a war in the Yarkand Khanate in the east, so I planned to take the opportunity to fish in troubled waters and get some benefits, but I didn't expect to encounter the powerful Ming army this time.

Lu Xiangsheng thought for a while and said: "Little King Timur Khan, I think about how majestic Genghis Khan swept the Western Regions back then, and later went south to the Central Plains to chase the deer and establish the Great Yuan after several generations, why was it destroyed in one fell swoop?" The most important thing is the issue of cultural inheritance, because the Mongols' own cultural inheritance is too shallow to assimilate other ethnic groups, coupled with the simplicity and rudeness of the ruling system, the upper nobles compete for power and profit, resulting in the current situation of fragmentation and fragmentation. You may know that the Mongols who went south into the Central Plains basically liked the Han culture and were assimilated by the Han people, and the people in the west were assimilated by the Han people, which is the power of inheriting culture. In fact, according to the emperor's research, whether it is the Mongols, the Qiang people, or other ethnic groups in the eastern land, they are all an old ancestor, that is, they are all descendants of Yan and Huang, but when the legendary Nuwa God created people, some of them were put down casually, and some were still a little farther away. In the Korqin steppe, Obadagi had already accepted the emperor's view, as well as Niyaha of the Jurchen Yehnara tribe. If you want, you can go to the Central Plains to see, now the emperor is a genius, omniscient, omniscient, just like the Ming army in the hands of the firing pistol, mortar, this is the emperor developed, before we came here, I also heard that the manufacture of a kind of iron ox that does not eat forage, than the Zhuge Wuhou is more magical. ”

Little Timur Khan listened to Lu Xiangsheng's words, like thunder, in fact, as a person like Little Timur Khan, his understanding of the situation is much stronger than that of ordinary people, but compared to Lu Xiangsheng, it is still much worse, seeing that this young person has such a high level of knowledge, he admires it very much, and he has the heart to give his daughter to him.

Timur Khan said: "The general's words made me wake up like a dream, for the future of the clan, I decided to join the Ming Dynasty, accept the inheritance of Han culture, and completely integrate into the Ming Dynasty." But there is a reluctant invitation, although the little girl grew up in a bitter cold place, she also has some appearance, and she wants to serve the general, I don't know if she is willing? ”

Lu Xiangsheng said: "Thank you for your love, I already have a wife room below, and I dare not be wronged to make love." ”

Little Timur Khan said: "I know that it is very common for the Ming Dynasty to have three wives and four concubines, as long as the general does not give up, the little girl does not fight for fame, I hope the general accepts the little girl as a concubine." ”

Having said this, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't shirk anymore, so he said: "This matter is quite big, and you need to ask the emperor to decide, I hope you can understand." ”

So, then Lu Xiangsheng made a book about the war here and the meaning of the little Timur Khan, and sent it to the capital in an expedited manner for 800 miles. Then Lu Xiangsheng and Timur Khan jointly wrote a letter to Liu Fangliang, Tian Jianxiu, and the tribesmen on the north side of the Junggar Basin, telling them that the two sides had successfully negotiated peace, that we were already friends, and that there was no need to fight again.

Next, Lu Xiangsheng and Timur Khan jointly traveled to all the Mughal tribes living nearby, and made a return agreement with them. There are quite a few people living in this basin, and there are 170,000 or 80,000 people in total. No wonder they were able to mobilize 80,000 soldiers so quickly.

Lu Xiangsheng They fought a rout battle, and there were not many real deaths, mainly because they were frightened by the muskets and artillery of the Ming army, and most of them ran away, and the little Timur Khan reconvened these soldiers, and Lu Xiangsheng selected 20,000 people from them to join his troops, and the son of the little Timur Khan, Halbara, also participated in Lu Xiangsheng's troops, and Lu Xiangsheng made him a thousand generals and led more than 1,000 people's subordinates. The next step was to train the recruits and integrate them into the regular army after three months. The recruits are training, and the veterans are not idle. Lu Xiangsheng consulted with Timur Khan the Younger, and decided that while the weather conditions were still good, he could march forward along the Ili River valley and defeat the Harakhuthorn.

It turned out that Hara Khuthorn was the leader of the Dzungar tribe, and he was the one who began to make the entire four parts of Oirat jump. The four tribes of Oirat were all Mongol Warat people in the early era, and later due to the failure of the competition between the tribes, they were driven westward by other Mongolian tribes and migrated to the vast grassland area north and west of the current Tianshan Mountains. Oirat Mongolia was divided into four divisions: Dzungaria, Dulbert, Heshute and Turgot. The Dzungar Department is the most powerful, and the other three are headed by the Dzungar Department and obey the orders of the Dzungar Ministry. Timur Khan's tribe was separated from the "White Horde", and some of their tribe were annexed by the Dzungar tribe, and the rest followed him into the valley of the Ili River to settle first, but they were constantly invaded by both sides. In fact, it was not a peaceful place in the steppes here, and the tribes were constantly fighting each other for pastures and water, and the later Turkuts could not stand this kind of bullying, so they moved west to the lower Volga region to graze.

Lu Xiangsheng and Timur Khan Jr. now led an army of 50,000 to the west, and Harahuthorn also felt threatened, so he mobilized the soldiers and horses of the four Oirat divisions and began to move towards this generation, and the two sides formed a confrontation on the north bank of the Ili River. Hara stabbed this man too selfishly, he took the Dulbert Department and the Heshute Department as the vanguard, and the Turhut Department in the middle, and led his troops to the rear in an attempt to reap the benefits. After several skirmishes, the Ming army had a clear advantage in combat effectiveness and weapons, but the Ming army was relatively small in number and did not form much victory.

Under the constant urging of Harahu, the three divisions finally concentrated their forces on the banks of the Ayaguz River in the northeast of Lake Balkhash to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army. With the strength of the three Oirat tribes, with 80,000 men, they crossed the Ayaguz River and launched rounds of charges against the Ming army, trying to defeat the Ming army in one fell swoop. The 20,000-foot cavalry of Liu Fangliang and Tian Jianxiu, who were in the vanguard of the Ming army, took the opportunity to kill and wound a large number of people with hand-cranked machine guns, mortars, and muskets. Lu Xiangsheng and Yuan Chong each led 10,000 cavalry to quietly cross the Ayaguz River from both sides, cutting off their rear route. Three days later, the three Oirat chiefs found that there was no more food or backup on the other side of the river, and only then did they know that the back road had been raided, and they had paid nearly 30,000 casualties after three days of fighting, and they panicked. Just when they were hesitating whether to attack or withdraw, Liu Fangliang had already launched a counterattack, concentrated all the mortars, and bombarded the battalions of the three divisions for half an hour, and then 10,000 cavalry began to charge into battle, and the infantry cavalry followed. In the panic, more than 10,000 Heshuo cavalry were temporarily gathered together, and they were frightened in a round of hedging, and the combat effectiveness of the Ming army was too strong, and almost all of them fell to the ground were Heshuo cavalry, and the missing cavalry was shot and killed one by one by the infantry cavalry who followed up, and there was no chance to fight again. When the other three soldiers saw this tragedy, who would dare to rush forward! Turn around and rush to the other side of the river, soon after going ashore, you will encounter the outflanked 20,000 Ming cavalry, turn around and rush to the north, it is still the Ming cavalry, the back is still chasing the Ming cavalry, the infantry cavalry, more than 40,000 three soldiers are surrounded by the Ming army, trying to escape, but it is basically impossible.
