Chapter 314: Guge Dynasty

Dan Zhen Wangbo was shot in the thigh, and he couldn't escape, so the guards carried him on his back, carrying an adult on his back, and the guards couldn't run fast, and the Ming army swept over from both sides.

The other guards saw that it was not good, so they hurriedly divided more than 100 people and blocked the muzzles of the Ming army with their bodies, hoping to win a little time for Dan Zhen Wangbo.

There were thousands of gunners in the Ming army, and these more than 100 guards quickly fell to the ground, and the gunners stepped over their bodies or corpses, and continued to pursue Dan Zhen Wangbo and the guards around him.

A wounded guard who had fallen to the ground had lost his scimitar, but he clung to the ankle of one of the gunmen.

The gunman struggled twice, but could not break free, he dropped the flintlock pistol and slammed it on the head of the guard, who snorted and slowly softened.

The Ming troops on both sides did not stop for a moment, and they had already caught up with the hundreds of guards of Tanzhen Wangpo and surrounded them.

Seeing that they couldn't escape, the guards had to put down Dan Zhen Wangbo, pull out the scimitar at his waist, and confront the Ming army.

But they didn't have bows and arrows, they lacked long-range strike capabilities, and the Ming army didn't get too close, so they could only use scimitars to give themselves courage.

The flintlock pistol mercilessly harvests the blood and lives of the guards.

Seeing that their own people fell under the guns of the Ming army one by one, finally some of the guards couldn't bear it anymore, and they danced scimitars in their hands, shouting and pounced on the Ming army.

The guards who pounced on them happened to be the target of the flintlock pistol.

The gunners did not skimp on bullets, and the guards who rushed over were the first to fall under the guns of the Ming army.

There are still more than 100 guards left, and Dan Zhen Wangbo already clearly knows that the Ming army wants his life, so he pushed away the guards around him, "You go quickly, the Ming army wants me, and you have to leave some seeds for the Tibetan army." ”

"We are the personal guards of Zangba Khan, if Zangba Khan is gone, what is the point of us living?"

"Hahaha...... "Dan Zhen Wangbo looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, "You are all my closest personal guards, since the Ming army refuses to let us go, then we will die happily today." ”

He pushed away the guards, pulled out the cutlass that was not commonly used at his waist, and staggered towards the Ming army, his eyes flashed with unyielding and helpless flames, and with every step, there would be a pool of red blood on the ground.

Nearly 100 guards did not stop him, and they all followed the pace of Dan Zhen Wangbo, and moved towards the Ming army step by step.

I don't know if it was a demonstration, or to show the unyielding spirit of the Tibetans, or to compare the numbers with the Ming army, Dan Zhen Wangpo and his nearly 100 guards lined up in a long horizontal line.

"Bang."

I don't know which soldier who didn't open his eyes, he fired the last shot at Dan Zhen Wangbo, the bullet drilled through his eyebrows, and the blood flowed out of the hole left by the bullet, and the speed was very slow and slow, and when the blood filled the hole, it quickly left from the hole, and a long blood line was imprinted on Dan Zhen Wangbo's face.

Dan Zhen Wangbo's body shook a little, and then he shook violently, and stood firm again.

The guards seemed stunned, and no one stepped forward to help them.

Dan Zhen Wangbo is like a thousand-year-old tree that has been hollowed out by insects, blown by the wind, slowly tilted, "poof", fell on the instep of a guard, bounced up a little, and fell again, his eyes were still staring, he looked dead, but there was no sound in his nose.

The fall of Shigatse and the death of Tanchen Wangpo marked the complete collapse of the regime of Tsangpa Khan.

The 19th and 20th armies of the Ming army slaughtered all the Tibetan soldiers in the city, including the newly armed serfs, and began to purge the surrounding remnants of the enemy.

When the soldiers were purging the remnants of the enemy, they also killed many Tibetans by mistake, mainly because of the language barrier, and when the Tibetans faced the soldiers of the Ming army, they often had a series of "Ma Mi Ma Mi Bang", which made the Ming soldiers who did not understand Tibetan very annoyed.

However, when the soldiers found a large amount of gold and silver in the temple, as well as the red coral, emerald, and dzi of the three jewels of Us, their annoyance immediately disappeared.

Lin Chengxiang's Twentieth Army was temporarily stationed in Shigatse, while Mu Qiyuan's Nineteenth Army came to the Ali region of the northeastern plateau of Usi-Tibet.

The second army, which was ordered by Dan Zhen Wangbo to guard the Ali area, surrendered directly, Tan Zhen Wangbo is dead, and the front and back Tibet have fallen into the hands of the Ming army, and the army of only 3,000 people, even if it does not surrender, how long can it resist?

Mu Qiyuan's soldiers occupied the Ali region without blood, this time, he was in a good mood, and did not slaughter the Tibetans, for the enemy who surrendered voluntarily, he really had no reason to slaughter, and they also offered all the gold, silver and jewelry in the city.

But the war is not over yet, in the westernmost part of Wusizang, there is a place called Guge Dynasty, and Mu Qiyuan met a stubborn man who didn't open his eyes.

The history of the Guge Dynasty can be traced back to the ninth century AD, in the second year of the Tang Dynasty (842 AD), and the Tang Dynasty has been confronting Tubo in the southwest, the last generation of Zamplang Dama, because of the intensification of domestic contradictions were killed, and its two princesses fought for the throne for their sons with the support of the royal family and foreign clans, so that the royal family was divided into two and did not belong to each other.

To Langdarma's grandson's generation, due to the outbreak of civilian and slave uprisings, both royal families were dealt a heavy blow, Langdarma's second son, Osong's son Bekozan, was sentenced to Niangruoxiangbao (that is, later Gyantse), Langdarma's great-grandson Jidnimagon fled to Ali after the defeat, married the daughter of Ali's local power Bujang Tuwang Tashizan, and gave birth to three sons.

Gidnyi Magon inherited the local authority in the Ali area, and in his later years, he divided the domain among his three sons.

The eldest son, Begigun, occupied Mangyu (Leh in present-day Kashmir, India), which later developed into the Ladakh dynasty; The second son, Tashigon, occupied Bujang (present-day Pulan County, Tibet) and established the Bujang Dynasty, also known as the Pulan Dynasty, which was later incorporated into the Guge Dynasty; The youngest son, Dezugong, occupied Zhabrang (present-day Zada County, Tibet) and developed into the Guge Dynasty.

The Ladakh dynasty, the Bujang dynasty, and the Guge dynasty are known as the "Ali Sanwei".

In the 11th and 12th centuries AD, all the ancient records of Ali Sanwei are blank, in the thirteenth century AD, Ali Sanwei belonged to Mengyuan together with Wusizang, "Ali Sanwei" was called "Nari Sugurusun", Mengyuan set up Nari Sugurusun here, and the three areas of "Ali Sanwei" were named Ali 30,000 households.

After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, inherited the old system of Mengyuan, in order to strengthen the defense of the Ali region, in the eighth year of Hongwu (1375 AD) set up the "Oris Military and Civilian Marshal Mansion", and appointed the local leader Su Sigong as the marshal of the Marshal Mansion, governing Ali Sanwei, "Oris" is the transliteration of "Ali Sanwei".

Although the Ladakh Dynasty, the Bujang Dynasty and the Guge Dynasty are of the same origin, they are constantly at war with each other, and later, the Guge Dynasty annexed the Bujang Dynasty, and the king of Ladakh, Bejigun, was very disgusted with the country of his third brother Dezugong and his second brother Tashigon, and raised troops to attack the Guge Dynasty, and Ali Sanwei disappeared in ancient books in the 11th and 12th centuries AD, perhaps it is related to this incident, and someone wants to eliminate this disgraceful history.

After the Bujang dynasty was annexed by the Guge dynasty, the ruling area of the Guge dynasty was called Upper Ali and the ruling area of the Ladakh dynasty was called Lower Ali, but the war between the Guge dynasty and the Ladakh dynasty continued.

As a result of the incessant wars between them, a large number of young and middle-aged laborers were unable to engage in production and gold mining, the people lacked food and clothing, and the country was impoverished.

In the 40th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1613 AD), the last king of the Guge Dynasty was Tri Tashi Zabad, his queen completely lost her mind after giving birth to a son, became demented, after two years of full healing, still did not improve, Tashi Zabad decided to marry a new queen, in order to resolve the contradiction with the Ladakh dynasty, he decided to marry the Ladakh king Gamuyang Namgyal's daughter Nozen Wangmu as the queen.

After the marriage contract was made through an intermediary, the bride Nozen Wangm set out from the Ladakh capital of Mangyu (Leh in present-day Kashmir) to the capital of the Gug dynasty of Zabulun, but when she was still two days away, Tritashi Zabad stopped her and ordered her to return to Ladakh.

The king of Ladakh, Gamuyang Nangyal, immediately declared war on the Gug dynasty, which was fought on and off for fifteen years.

As for who violated the marriage contract, the two sides insisted on their own words, but judging from the fact that the king of Ladakh, Gamuyang Nanjie, was angry and immediately declared war, it should be the Chi Tashi Zabad who broke the contract, otherwise, except for the Han people, these extremely backward and religious Ladakh dynasties should not be used, besides, at that time, the war between the two countries, the Ladakh dynasty still won less and lost more.

This never-ending war ended with the destruction of the Guge Dynasty.

However, the demise of the Guge dynasty was also related to civil strife in the country.

The reason for the civil strife was the prevalence of Tibetan Buddhism in the Guge Dynasty, and a large number of young people entered the monasteries to cultivate Buddhism, and these young men who practiced Buddhism did not plough the fields, did not serve in the military, did not marry and have children, and the monasteries occupied a large amount of fertile land in the country and did not pay taxes.

With the expansion of the power of Tibetan Buddhism, the contradictions between the king and the Buddhist leaders became increasingly acute.

In order to maintain the royal power, Tritashi Dhabad carried out a severe attack on Tibetan Buddhism, demolishing many monasteries, confiscating the property of the monasteries, and forcing the monks in the monasteries to return to the laity.

The monks did not sit idly by, and the Grand Lama, led by the younger brother of Tri Tashi Dhabad, used his influence to make secret contacts everywhere, and they took advantage of the disgust of the people of the Guge dynasty to engage in a long war with their neighbors, and mobilized the people widely, and at the same time connected with local officials and officers in the army, waiting for an opportunity to rise up in the struggle against the king.

In the third year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty (1630 AD), the lamas took advantage of the illness of Chi Tashi Zabad, launched a large-scale armed rebellion, and invited the Ladakh Dynasty to send troops.

The new king of Ladakh, Sengnangy, was overjoyed when he received the message, and personally led his troops to quickly rush to Zaburun, and with the response of the lamas, surrounded the palace of the Guge king.
