Chapter 867: Northwest Situation

The Yarkand soldiers took down their guns and began to reload, ready to fight back.

At this time, the Great Western Army was in full swing.

The horsemen didn't know what it means to save and keep one hand, and directly let the only twenty machine guns fire.

The effect is that it bursts naturally.

Yeerqiang's soldiers immediately fell in rows, terrifying the survivors.

Of course, this also completely exposed the firepower of the Daxi Army, and the Daxi Army had no cards.

Generally speaking, this operation of horse soldiers is somewhat unreasonable.

But the problem is not big, this wave of fierce firepower directly defeated Abrador's striker.

Abrador's forward began to flee, and the horsemen directly ordered the whole army to pursue.

According to past experience, chasing at this time can take a big advantage.

The Great Western Army launched a pursuit, and Abrador was also frightened and panicked when he learned that the forward was defeated. He immediately ordered the cavalry to attack the Great Western Army, in order to contain the Great Western Army and cover the orderly retreat of his troops.

Yeerqiang's cavalry rushed over, and the Daxi Army also had cavalry, and they fought against them.

However, the number of cavalry in the Western Army was small and could not completely stop Yeerqiang's cavalry.

A part of the cavalry rushed towards the Daxi Army, and because the Daxi Army was chasing, there was basically no formation at all.

In the face of the cavalry, the other non-brand troops panicked and fled.

Fortunately, the two elite regiments were relatively calm, formed a formation on the spot, and fought against the cavalry of Yerkang, and both sides suffered casualties.

In the end, those cavalrymen saw that they could not find a bargain, so they retreated.

Although the losses were heavy, it at least prevented the pursuit of the Great Western Army.

The battle was very chaotic, with fire in many directions.

In the end, the battle ended in the victory of the Great Western Army.

Yeerqiang lost more than 7,000 people, of which more than 3,000 were killed and more than 4,000 were captured.

Among the seven thousand soldiers, there were more than two thousand cavalry.

For the Yeerqiang Khanate, it was already a big loss.

The Daxi Army killed more than 1,300 people and more than 200 were seriously injured.

Ma Bing and Wang Bowen are very happy, such a big victory was not easy to obtain before.

The appearance of the two of them fell into the eyes of the advisors sent by Huajun, making them speechless.

With such a huge equipment advantage, to be like this is simply blinding the advanced equipment provided by the Huajun.

If the Hua army killed 1500 casualties in such a battle, the general would definitely be sent to a military court.

When they were watching the battle, they even wanted to open their mouths and make suggestions more than once. In the end, because of their status, they chose to shut up and let the Daxi Army go to experience and grow.

After all, it is the first time to use this advanced equipment to fight, so it is inevitable to be rough.

More summaries in the future should be able to reduce casualties.

The Daxi Army won a big victory, and the morale was high.

But Ye Erqiang's troops were in shock and their morale was extremely low.

Two days later, Li Dingguo's main force arrived, and they launched a general attack on Jiayuguan.

Although Ye Erqiang's troops occupied a little defensive advantage, they still fell under the onslaught of the Western Army.

In this battle, the Yeerqiang Khanate really suffered heavy losses. The 30,000-strong army was almost wiped out, and only a small number of troops survived the siege and fled to Hami.

The Daxi Army pursued the victory and occupied Hami, Tubo, and Urumqi continuously along the way, and drove the Yerkian Khanate to the Karamay area.

Subsequently, the remaining troops of the Daxi Army in Shaanxi and Gansu moved to Hami with some of their families.

The Hua Army recovered the entire territory of Shaanxi and parts of Gansu without a fight.

The people who remained and the families of the Daxi Army knew what was going on, so they welcomed the arrival of the Hua Army, at least on the surface.

This place has been ruled by the Huaxia Dynasty since ancient times, and now it can be regarded as a return, and there is no resistance in the hearts of the people.

Governing this place is even more worry-free than governing the Eastern Siberia region.

The Great Western Army was only fighting westward, and there was an Oirat in Mongolia in the north.

The region is currently divided, with more than two dozen large tribes forming a loose alliance of Oirat.

The leader of the alliance is Gushi Khan, the leader of the Heshuo Special Department.

In this alliance, there are also several major tribes such as the Junggar Department, the Tueryi Special Department, and the Durbot Department.

Historically, in a few years, the Dzungar tribe will conquer several other tribes, complete the unification, and eliminate the Yeerqiang Khanate and establish the Dzungar Khanate.

But right now, the strongest among these tribes is the Heshuo Special Division.

Of course, only relative to several other units.

When facing Dahua, they were both younger brothers.

In fact, Gushi Khan sent envoys to Dahua a few years ago, hoping to become a vassal state of Dahua, but Dahua did not agree.

After all, the kind of vassal state relationship that Gushi Khan wanted was that they would pay tribute to Dahua at will, and then Dahua would give back a large amount of materials in order to maintain the face of the heavenly kingdom and rich products.

Then, on the bright side, Gushi Khan declared himself a minister to Dahua, but in fact Dahua was completely unable to intervene in its internal affairs.

This kind of vassal relationship is only the kind of emperor who likes vanity, or is worried about border turmoil.

promise.

Wu Changqing is a pragmatic person, and he resolutely refuses to do things that are not good, so he did not agree.

He neither cares about that little reputation, nor does he worry that the other party will invade and loot.

More importantly, he will march to these places in the future and bring them into rule completely.

If he agreed, wouldn't he be fighting his own servants in the future?

This reputation is not very good, and it is more likely to arouse the anger of the local people.

Therefore, Dahua's attitude has always been to either unconditionally fully merge with Dahua, or to play at the same time.

Gushi Khan chose to play on the side, so in the past few years, the life of the Oirat Alliance has been very difficult.

They are more affected by the climate of the Little Glacier. Even grasslands with less rainfall have begun to degrade, and there are fewer and fewer places suitable for grazing.

Moreover, because of Dahua's strong defensive ability, they couldn't do anything, and they didn't dare to go south to loot, which made their life very sad.

Every winter, many people starve to death.

In recent years, the population of Dahua has skyrocketed, while the population on the grasslands has suffered a sharp decline.

After Dahua regained the Shaanxi-Gansu region, he was ready to take the grasslands as well. Hit it all the way north to connect the territory with East Siberia.

In this way, Dahua's border line can also be shortened, and there are fewer places where troops need to be stationed, which can save a lot of military expenses.

Of course, even without this benefit, they would have to march.

The military has great enthusiasm for expanding territory.
