Chapter 41: The Death of the Mongols

There are still many big plans to be implemented in the General Staff Headquarters, but the tail of the north has not yet been cleaned up, and jumping elsewhere now looks very anticlimactic and easy to leave hidden dangers. Qin Han's men and horses have driven all the way to Heilongjiang, and the humiliated Yijing was transferred by Daoguang to Heilongjiang General after returning to Beijing, but as a Heilongjiang general, he did not organize any effective resistance at all, and after Qin Han just left Liaodong, he ran to Horqin with his tail between his legs to find Guilun. The Outer Khing'an Mountains are in sight, and the pacification of the northeast is only a matter of a moment, but now is not the time to start a provocation, otherwise Lin Hong really wants Qin Han to drive all the way to the Kamchatka Peninsula.

The Mongol princes had already resisted with all their hearts, ignoring the imperial edicts, and more and more Mongol cavalry had gathered in Horqin, who had been in contact with the Russians all year round, so they also had some guns in their hands, but they were far from enough to equip their army. As for artillery, they basically don't have it. It's just that nearly 100,000 people have been put together.

The General Staff Headquarters believed that, depending on the logistical capabilities of the Mongol princes, if they did not immediately go south to start a war, they themselves would be scattered in a few months. Lin Hong didn't believe that they could afford to support 100,000 cavalry, and how to deploy, deploy, and command the troops was a problem. There were many contradictions between the various Mongolian tribes, and at this time it was already a great joy that they did not see each other, and it was really difficult for some strong people to fight with one heart and one mind.

However, although they don't look down on the so-called 100,000 Mongolian athletes, the people in the staff headquarters are not people who like to take it lightly. After starting with North China, he began to set up the North China Military Region, although the development of the Northeast Region was insufficient for the time being, so the defense of the Northeast Region was also managed by the newly established Northeast Military Region. At the same time, North China also faced the threat of the Qing army, which was still stubbornly resisting from Mongolia in the north and the Western Regions in the northwest. Although the Qing army was leaderless, because Mongolia and the Western Regions were too large and the terrain was rugged, it was difficult for the army to quickly attack and occupy them, and the local economic situation was poor.

According to the CIA, the Huibu, Kazakhs, and Hezhuo people in the Western Regions have heard the news of the collapse of the Qing court, and most of them have no intention of continuing to serve the Central Plains Dynasty, and are preparing to establish some messy Kazakh Khanate, Hezhuo Khanate, and the like. Although they did not like the Manchu Qing, to a certain extent, they did not like the Han people, but the land under their feet was ruled by the Central Plains Dynasty in the era, and their ancestors were also Chinese for generations, and now they want to engage in splitting, so how can Lin Hong, who has just established the idea of establishing great unity and unity throughout the country, agree.

It is also thanks to the fact that in the past two years, the internal strife of the Kokand Khan in Central Asia was more serious, and the entire Ali Khan clan who had originally instigated the Zhanger Rebellion was wiped out because of the Nasrallah of the Braha Khanate. Although the Kokand people later resumed their rule, they were troubled by the issue of blood and the throne. On the Russian side, Lin Hong has already sent a special envoy to warn him not to stretch out his hand indiscriminately to Central Asia. Although Tsarist Russia is now a behemoth, it has rarely achieved too good results in foreign wars. Most of the land acquired is borderless land or a poor creature like Qing Zhengfu.

Lin Hong can't control how to fight and mess up the Western Regions for the time being, these must be handed over to the General Staff, and it is urgent to quickly restore the economic situation in the Central Plains and help the local residents quickly live a well-fed and warm-clothed life. However, most of these problems are being done by the Government Council, although Lin Hong has been inspecting the planning in the past few years, he is still the one who wields a saber and continues to expand outward.

After the establishment of the North China Military Region, Wuqing was transferred from the Jingchu Military Region to the North China Military Region, and the commander of the Jingchu Military Region was succeeded by Shi Jinzhong of the former Royal Army General Staff. At the same time, the cavalry divisions were transferred from the four major military regions, and except for a few cavalry divisions and one cavalry hunting division in the southern region, all the cavalry units of the other six divisions were transferred to the North China Military Region as the cornerstone of guarding against the southern invaders of the Mongol princely army.

Lin Hong also recruited an artillery division and four infantry divisions in the North China Military Region, eventually expanding the strength of the northern front line of the North China Military Region to nearly 120,000 people.

Five more infantry divisions were transferred from the previous four major military regions and stationed in Xi'an, mainly to guard against the incoming enemy from the northwest and gradually enter Lanzhou, and to plan for the establishment of the Northwest Military Region

Guilun, the general of Uriya Sutai, rode on a BMW, looking at the beautiful scenery of the summer pasture, but he couldn't raise his interest, so he walked on the grassland alone, and he didn't know what the purpose was, maybe it was just to alleviate his sorrow.

When he was young, he had made great contributions in quelling the Zhanger Rebellion, and since then he has risen to prominence and has been reused by the Qing court. But now that the Qing court has basically disappeared, Emperor Xianfeng was killed, and the large and small clans of the Manchu Qing Dynasty are said to have died and exiled, and there are not many people surnamed Aixin Jueluo in the whole of China.

A few days ago, Heilongjiang General Yijing brought 12,000 soldiers and horses from Heilongjiang to Horqin, he didn't do anything else after he came, took the route of his ancestors, and began to befriend the powerful Mongolian princes everywhere, as if trying to persuade them to support him as emperor. However, at this time, it is useless to have blood, there must be enough troops. Although the 12,000 people of Yijing are not the largest number of Mongolian tribes in Horqin, they can be regarded as having a small net worth.

There is another person who competes with him for power, and that is Yishan, the Ili general who is far away in Xinjiang. Compared with blood, Yijing is closer, he is the great-grandson of Emperor Qianlong. And Yishan's ancestor is Yongzheng's brother and the descendant of the fourteenth master Yinzhen. Both of them are now the horns of the generals, and they have tens of thousands of men under them, who can be driven by them.

The Mongolian tribes are not stupid, the Aixin Jueluo family has fallen to this point, there is no one to ask for people, there is no money to ask for, what use value can there be, the Manchurian Eight Banners who used to be like uncles are basically no one left. At that time, Kangxi ordered an inventory of the former and Ming descendants, and basically all that could be found were slaughtered, and the specific number is not known, but regardless of men, women, old and children, as long as they are related to each other, they are all killed. However, Zhu Ming has been sitting in the country for so many years, and the Ming generation's doting on the vassal clan is simply perverted, so even if it is such a terrifying massacre of the former Ming clan, before Lin Hong crosses, there are still people who can count the ancestors to Zhu Yuanzhang, and the Zhu family finally produced a prime minister of the republic, which can be regarded as the revitalization of the lintel.

Guilun's troubles are very simple, there are already Mongolian princes who are privately preparing to contact the Han people in Beijing and turn against each other. There is a great contradiction between the various Mongolian tribes, and the Han people use a very classic method, dividing and dissolving them, and breaking them individually. Those who can use it will be allowed to make heavy profits, and those who can't be used will isolate it, and then lead the wolves to devour it.

He remembered a sentence written in the Han newspaper when he was still in the Southern Dynasties: "Three or four thousand years ago, there were dogs, Xiqiang, and Dongyi around the Central Plains, and now I don't know where they are?" Fifteen hundred years ago, what ethnic groups in the north were called Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qian, Di, and Qiang, and now I don't know where they are? A thousand years ago, what ethnic groups in the north were called Turkic and Khitan, and now I don't know where they are? Maybe a thousand years from now, our descendants will ask, a thousand years ago, what Manchus, Mongols were in the north, and now I don't know where? ”——

In 1835, the July Imperial Cavalry Division marched into Mongolia.

At noon on July 6, the 71st Cavalry Division met the army of the Mongol princes 20 kilometers south of Ulaanbaatar, the Imperial Cavalry Division had the advantage of cavalry and guns, and fought and retreated, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon the Mongol rebels entered the imperial ambush circle, heavy artillery was unanimous, the guns did not stop, and the battle did not end until about 7 o'clock in the evening.

During the battle, the Mongol rebels suffered heavy casualties and scattered in all directions.

On July 29, the Emperor ** team broke through Ulaanbaatar.

On August 10, the imperial detachment reached Kizil in the northern end of the Tangnu-Uliangnu region.

Northern Xinjiang was initially decided.

On October 21, the Inner and Outer Mongolia Provinces were established, and the Mongolian Military Region was formed, which was under the jurisdiction of nine divisions and two mixed brigades, totaling about 170,000 people.

Subsequently, the Xizang Military Region and the North China Army divided two routes, went north out and west, and pacified Xinjiang.

On October 5, Xinjiang established a province, formed the Northwest Military Region, and the military headquarters was Urumqi. A total of six divisions were under the command of about 100,000 men.
