The Ming army that captured the Turpan Basin faced two choices: one was to continue to march towards Shache, and then completely wipe out the Yarkand Khanate, and the other was to directly attack the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains and attack the Junkar Basin. The other Ming army successfully captured Dunhuang, and from there, they could directly attack Qinghai.&1t;/p>

Qinghai is still a vast grassland these days, unlike later generations, and the ecology of the northwest is generally much better than later generations.&1t;/p>

The alien races in the northwest do not have strong agricultural production capacity, so their ability to cultivate nature is naturally relatively poor, and their destructive power is not that great. However, their resistance to nature is poor. Once the population grows to the point where it cannot afford to support so many people, either rely on internal conflicts to consume the population or external conflicts to consume the population.&1t;/p>

When internal conflicts break out, they fight each other. Relying on external conflicts to consume the population, they usually rob the inside of the pass.&1t;/p>

The Yarkand Khanate was a bit overpopular at this time, and Abdullah integrated the internal situation, which resulted in expansion everywhere.&1t;/p>

The Yerkand Khanate has now retreated to Shache, which is far enough from the Turpan Basin. The Junkar Basin is located on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and is separated from the Turpan Basin by a Tianshan Mountain Range.&1t;/p>

Lu Xiangsheng held an operational meeting on this issue. The meeting result unanimously agreed that the Yarkand Khanate could temporarily ignore it and that it would be safest to directly attack the Jungkar tribe.&1t;/p>

Because the Yarkand Khanate is too weak, it is a Wusandruff who was killed instantly in front of the Ming army. Under such circumstances, the Junkar tribe on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains is currently at a high threat to the Ming army. If the main force of the Ming army goes to Shache to chase and attack the Yerkand Khanate, what should I do if the Junkar tribe stabs the Ming army chrysanthemums in the back? At that time, the Ming army is hard to take care of. If the logistics supply is cut off by the Junkar tribe, wouldn’t we have to drink wind and eat sand in this Western Region with yellow sand all over the ground?&1t;/p>

Moreover, if you attack the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, you don’t have to worry about being cut off when your logistics supplies in the Ming army are attacked.&1t;/p>

At this time, the snow in Tianshan Mountains was melting. The road blocked by the snow would be completely unobstructed in less than a few days, and it was just right to attack the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains.&1t;/p>

After considering the suggestions of the General Staff, Lu Xiangsheng directly agreed to the combat plan. He then concentrated his main force and attacked the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains.&1t;/p>

The Junkar tribe on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains also noticed the Ming army's moves into the Western Regions. They were about to fight for territory with the Yarkand Khanate, but the Yarkand Khanate suddenly became timid. At first, it was strange, but soon discovered the battle situation in the Turpan Basin. The strong enemy of the Yarkand Khanate, actually collapsed thousands of miles in just a few days, which also made the Junkar tribe deeply vigilant against the Ming army and immediately mobilized the main force to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to prevent the possibility of the Ming army breaking north.&1t;/p>

In the eyes of the Junkar tribe, the Ming army would not attack north under normal circumstances. Because the Ming Dynasty had lived peacefully for many years. The Junkar tribe did not provoke the Ming Dynasty, and generally would not be attacked by the Ming Dynasty.&1t;/p>

But then the Ming army vividly taught the Junkar tribe a lesson, which made them realize that this style is an old concept.&1t;/p>

Just five days after the Ming army captured Turpan, the main force of the Ming army brazenly attacked the Kaer troops and launched an extremely fierce attack.&1t;/p>

Amid the rumbling sound of artillery, the simple defense line built by the Junkar tribe on the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains was easily pierced by the Ming army like a paper. The Junkar tribe, which had never seen such a violent artillery attack, was scared to death in front of a shell falling from the sky, and the simple fortifications were quickly destroyed. The Ming army broke through the Tianshan defense line of the Junkar tribe without any suspense and successfully attacked the Junkar Basin on the northern foot.&1t;/p>

The Ming army attacked the Jungkar tribe without any declaration of war, because the Ming army had already raised the banner of recapturing the Western Regions. The nomadic peoples who had no resistance to nature were mortal enemies of agricultural civilization, so there was no need to talk nonsense, just fight.&1t;/p>

What is the United Nations these days, and there is no means of communication. All uncivilized war atrocities are often unblocked and no one condemned.&1t;/p>

The Ming Dynasty attacked the Jungkar tribe, so naturally there was no need to report to the United Nations. The Ming Dynasty is the most powerful country in the world these days.&1t;/p>

Although Zhu Youxiao believes that a certain degree of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness can govern the country, he does not naively think that those nomadic peoples can be influenced by virtues. These nomadic peoples have poor resistance to nature and consume their population when they do not have enough food. They are either internal or external consumption, so they are more like wild animals. The Central Plains agricultural civilization is different. Because the land can produce more food and thus have more populations, they can exhibit a more human and cultural civilization.&1t;/p>

To deal with these nomadic people, we must first defeat the other party, and then we can guide them to establish a new order. Just like the Mongolian herdsmen in the Ming Dynasty, under the new production model, there is no need to nomadic everywhere. Each herdsman is allocated a large area of ​​grassland, and personal production efficiency is greatly improved. At the same time, it is in full swing with the Ming commodity economy. Herdsmen on the grassland can exchange raw materials for food, and the excess population will either be digested by **** or enter the Ming towns as workers, and there will be no robbery everywhere because of insufficient food.&1t;/p>

The prerequisite is that others can listen. Therefore, force is a prerequisite. When the other party is beaten down and becomes afraid of the Ming Dynasty, then treat these alien races with morality. These alien races will agree with each other as if they have won a grand prize, and then they will be grateful and convinced.&1t;/p>

So for the junkar tribe and the Yarkand Khanate, we will fight first.&1t;/p>

Obviously, the population density of the Jukkar Basin is much larger than that of the Yarkand Khanate, because there are no deserts in the Jukkar Basin. Of course, as a Mongolian tribe, the Jukkar tribe is still not as dense as the Yarkand Khanate in local population. The Yarkand Khanate is mainly relatively large in area, but there are more desert areas. The Jukkar tribe is not as good as the Yarkand Khanate in terms of productivity. Historically, the rise of the Jukkar tribe actually obtained handicrafts from the Turpan Basin after annexing the Yarkand Khanate and gaining handicrafts from the Turpan Basin and agriculture, which greatly enhanced its strength, thus challenging the Qing Dynasty.&1t;/p>

The Junkar tribe immediately rose up to resist while the Ming army invaded. The herdsmen were more straightforward to escape and could retreat directly by riding horses. The Junkar tribe organized personnel to retreat while organizing resistance forces to continuously attack the Ming army. (To be continued.)&1t;/p>
