Chapter 387 Galdan Death

Chapter 387 Galdan died

"Khan, let's go quickly!" Cewang Alabutan shouted.

However, Galdan did not want to leave at all: "This Khan has no way to escape. The whole army obeyed the order and fought against the Qing army!"

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

His army responded to his call, and Cewang Alabutan thought thoughtfully. He was the eldest son of the previous Great Khan Sengge. If Galdan died, he could become the Great Khan of Junggar.

So he took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield and ran away with his cronies. Anyway, Galdan did not listen to him and did not consider Junggar. Only he was worthy of being the Great Khan.

On the Qing side, it was the Right Army.

Prince Jian Yabu was really a tiger general. He was the commander of the right army of the Qing army and had rich battlefield experience.

After he discovered Galdan's pro-army troops, he decided to immediately change his strategy of slowly consuming them. As long as he captured Galdan, he would be able to win the first victory.

Prince Jian Yabu immediately ordered the forward commander Shuo Dai and deputy commander Ananda to lead 400 wolf riders (husky sleds) to lure Galdan's main force to fight.

"Besides, the reason why we're here today is because you didn't listen to my advice!"

Galdan is very relieved about his wife, because his wife is very good at fighting and is his right-hand assistant.

Galdan, who was pursuing the Qing army, suddenly found that his army was surrounded by the Qing army on three sides. He was determined to fight to the death and open a bloody road out.

The resourceful Prince Jane Yabu had already set up an ambush circle and was waiting for the arrival of the Galdan army.

At this time, the Rakshasa envoy Grigoyev, whom Galdan sent to invite, arrived.

He wanted to enter Qinghai and Tibet, but he was afraid that the Qing army would block his way.

Galdan was very happy to see Grigoyev, as if he had been given a shot in the arm. He kept saying, "Quick, please come in, Mr. Grigoyev!"

Galdan had no choice but to lead his less than a thousand men and horses and retreat to an area called Taikule in the Tamir River Basin to station their herdsmen.

The Qing army pursued them for fifteen miles in the dark, and did not withdraw until dawn.

He thought that he was also a prairie man who was not willing to fail.

Because the number of men and horses on both sides was about the same, the battlefield at the mountain pass to the east was full of the sounds of the two armies fighting.

Galdan begged hard: "Good nephew, let your uncle go in to drink water and warm himself up."

This made Grigoyev very worried. He said: "Although it is inconvenient for our country to interfere in this war, as friends, we sympathize with you. For this reason, I only gave the Khan 10 muskets and corresponding supplies in my own name."

Ammunition, goodbye Khan, I will return to my country according to the imperial edict, I wish you all the best!"

Since then, Galdan's life has been very difficult. Due to his repeated misfortunes, his close associates have lost confidence in him.

This puzzled him. While thinking about it, Prince Yabu climbed up the hill next to him and took a look. He found that there were many men and horses behind the enemy, but none of them participated in the battle.

However, Cewang sent someone to pass the message: "Who in the whole Junggar region doesn't know that my uncle is a jackal, and he drinks the blood of his brothers to make himself fat. If I let you enter the city, I'm afraid you will have to chew my bones to pieces. Say goodbye."

It’s a dream!”

After the disastrous defeat, Galdan led the remnants of his troops to march westward with difficulty, and returned to his hometown of Ili in despair to recuperate.

Galdan's heart suddenly went cold and he asked hurriedly: "Why? Didn't we make an agreement? Why did we change our minds again?"

In order to disrupt Galdan's military morale, Prince Jian Yabu decided to sneak attack Galdan's rear camp.

For their own future, these people all left Galdan.

The fierce attacks by the Junggar forward troops were repeatedly frustrated. Galdan had no choice but to defend with all his strength with the remaining troops.

The leader of the Junggar forward army was hacked to death, and the entire army lost its commander.

Galdan's army also suffered heavy losses. More than 2,000 people were killed in the battle, more than 3,000 people were captured, more than 60,000 cattle, sheep, horses and camels were trophied, and even more tent equipment was captured.

Prince Jian Yabu thought that there must be a reason for the enemy's desperate support.

"Great Khan, since we are at war with the Ottomans in our country, the muskets and artillery cannot be evenly distributed. Even if they are evenly distributed, we are worried that the Qing Dynasty will have ideas about us. Therefore, Ambassador Golovin asked me to express my condolences to the Great Khan on behalf of the Supreme Tsar.

It is currently inconvenient to provide weapons and ammunition to the Great Khan!" Grigoyev looked at Galdan and said deeply apologetically.

"Khan, go quickly, I'll cut off the queen!"

Suddenly, Prince Jian's large group of troops suddenly appeared, rushed towards Galdan, and tried to surround Galdan.

During this period, Galdan was tired of being crushed by the Qing army, and immediately ordered more than a thousand forward troops to fight the Qing army in an attempt to avenge the shame of the last defeat.

Galdan's troops also suffered heavy casualties, but they were still tenacious and fought fiercely at the risk of arrows, insisting on not retreating.

Galdan couldn't wait any longer. When he saw Grigoyev holding a cane, he couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Grigoyev, have you brought my musketeers and cannons?"

The strength of Galdan's army was greatly reduced, but they fought hard for another six hours.

Who are these people?

This shows that he is very sensitive to information on the battlefield and will not let go of any information.

The result was obvious, because war horses could not be used in such weather, and Anukotun's head was split in half not long after!

This scene made Galdan extremely heartbroken.

At that time, the armies of both sides met unexpectedly, and the battle was extremely fierce.

Galdan's troops finally could no longer resist and began to flee in rout. It was a devastating defeat.

He wanted to go to Beitou to go to Rakshasa, but he was afraid that his nephew, who was against him, would block his way to Rakshasa.

He had no choice but to act as a bandit and guerrilla around Mohe. He also planned to send people to contact Rakshasa to rob the Qing army's food and grass.

Who would have imagined that Grigoyev looked depressed, with a long face. He bowed stiffly to Galdan and said: "Khan, I'm sorry that I didn't bring you good news. I'm very sorry.

Feel sorry."

The Qing army got off their sleds and lined up to shoot. With three-stage shooting, they killed a large number of Junggar soldiers.

In this regard, Galdan, who was bent on revenge, was unaware of it. Prince Jian Yabu lured Galdan's Qing army to fight and retreat, pretending to be defeated and retreating into the ambush area.

However, how could she withstand the tightly surrounded Qing army, and several Qing soldiers engaged in thrilling hand-to-hand combat with her.

The Qing army was victorious in this battle, and Galdan's wife Anu and many generals died in the battle.

Prince Jian Yabu then commanded an army to break in from the southeast and rushed into the enemy's rear. He saw that they were the young and old accompanying the Galdan army and their baggage.

As a result, Galdan's rear materials and personnel came into the hands of the Qing army.

Galdan's concubine Anu was a tigress known for her ability in fighting. She held up a big knife and fiercely led the rebels to charge out.

There are often choices between life and death on the battlefield, and there are even spectacles of people riding horses without their heads.

Galdan was sitting on pins and needles, his mountains and rivers were exhausted, his condition was getting worse and worse, but he would not surrender until his death.

This is a life-and-death contest between the forward troops of both sides, and it is also a rehearsal for a large-scale battle.

Galdan's power is getting smaller and smaller, and it is even less powerful to fight against the Qing army.

At this time, Cewang Alabutan, who saw something was wrong, had already run away.

However, there was a coup in the Ili Khanate and it was seized by his nephew Cewang. With the prestige of his late father Khan Sengge, he successfully obtained the title of Great Khan of Junggar.

When the Galdan army saw that the rear was in chaos, the soldiers were no longer interested in fighting. In addition, the Qing army launched a pincer attack from both front and rear.

Leading the vanguard was his concubine Anu.

But Galdan's expression changed drastically. He seemed to be mentally disturbed and stared blankly at the chilling winter scene outside the window.

After saying that, he moved his chin and saw that two Rakshasa soldiers had already come in carrying a box and placed it on the ground.

Galdan said, sitting weakly on the ground, no matter whether it was cool or warm.

If he surrendered to the Qing army, he would not be willing to do so.

Then Grigoev walked out silently.

Galdan was so angry that he was trembling all over. "Bah!" he spat at Grigoyev's back and shouted loudly: "Rakshasa gangster! Liar!"

Then, he committed suicide under the dusk of evening.

Galdan: died.
