Although Zhu Anu's fiancé Geerdan moved to Kashgar with his tribe, he was not stationed in the city of Kashgar. Instead, he was stationed on the grassland by the Yaergan River two to three hundred miles east of Kashgar.
Because of his unequivocal support for the Great Lama and the Yellow Sect "Holy See" who were expelled by the Snowy San Francisco, they also achieved some "victories", regained the Oris area, and also made the Kingdom of Ladakh surrender, which had always been disobedient to the Great Lama in the past. .
Therefore, Galdan's reputation among the Mongolian tribes who believe in the Yellow Sect in Anxi and Hexi has been further improved.
With prestige, you can win over people. In the past few months, many nomadic Mongolian tribes who originally relied on Punsuk have gradually left their pastures in Qinghai or Hamiwei and went to Kashgar where Galdan was stationed. Ten thousand households who joined Galdan - this is the tradition of the Mongols, the strong are respected and the weak are disbanded!
Peng Suke, who was beaten up by the Three Feuds of Snowland and lost his territory in Uzang, is now miserable. Not only has he lost his family business, but most of his tribe has also been scattered, leaving only the headquarters of thousands of die-hard loyalists. Basic salary nomadic near Qinghai Lake...
All his wealth has been divided up by two good friends, Ge Erdan and Prince Zhu. Now he can't even cry!
The Third Prince Zhu married eight princesses from the direct and collateral lines of the Golden Family (Chahar and Tumote) as princesses, so he was also a "Consort of the Yuan Dynasty", and he was also an "Eight Times Consort of the Yuan Dynasty". It also has a certain appeal among the small Mongolian tribes in Qinghai, Anxi and Beiting.
Moreover, there are many fertile pastures on his territory, which is very attractive to Mongolian herdsmen. Therefore, we took advantage of the disintegration of the Uszang and Shuote tribes to acquire several thousand households. With the addition of tribesmen from the two khanates of Chahar and Tumut, we could make up 10,000 households. .
He also followed Lin Dan Khan's method and divided the more than 10,000 Mongolian households into eight thousand households and gave them to his eight Mongolian princesses to rule.
However, Prince Zhu is a Han after all, and does not have the status of "Kutuktu". He is still unable to compare with Galdan in winning over small Mongolian tribes.
Therefore, most of the tribesmen who came out of Uzang and Shuote still returned to Galdan.
After gaining the submission of these small tribes that originally belonged to the Uszang and Shuote tribes, Galdan's strength increased greatly, and the tribe under his command could already be called 30,000 households!
What made Galdan even more excited than having 30,000 households was that his fifth brother, Sengge, finally passed away in the summer of the 25th year of Hongxing's reign after battling food poisoning for several months. Oh my God!
Of course it's not a good thing to have his brother die. Galdan and Sengge were close brothers, but the thought of Anukotun, the sister-in-law who just lost her husband, makes Galdan excited...
Of course, Galdan is not coveting Anukodon's body. He is also a person who does important things. How can he love beauty as much as the King of Eight-faced King Kong but not the country?
So what he covets is the two thousands of households in the royal court of Zhungeer in the hands of Anukedun!
There are a total of twelve thousand households in the Junggar Kingdom of Sengge, eight of which are feudal households and four are royal court households.
Of course, the "ten thousand households" here does not mean "population of ten thousand households", but an organizational unit integrating military and civilians, similar to the "banner" of the Manchus. Therefore, the actual number of households and population owned by each 10,000 households are different.
Among them, the Chuhe Wanhu (owned by Galdan) among the four Wangting Wanhu and the eight vassal town Wanhu are very powerful, and the actual number of households they own is far more than 10,000.
Among these five households with more than 10,000 households, Chuhe Wanhu owned by Galdan and Wang Ting's vanguard Wanhu and Zuowei Wanhu led by Anukedun are the strongest - quasi- Geer's royal court forward Wanhu and left guard Wanhu are both stationed in the Fergana Basin, the richest region in Central Asia.
Although this basin is not very large, it is rich in oil and water. It is the largest granary in Central Asia and the most densely populated area. It is of course also the main source of wealth for the Jungar Kingdom.
In addition, because Anusha Khan of the Khiva Khanate led his troops to escape into the Fergana Basin, the two Mongolian households stationed in the basin have been in a state of war, and their combat effectiveness has been maintained quite intact.
Of course, Sengge would not trust such two powerful households to be led by outsiders, and his two legitimate sons (not born to Anuktun) Cewang Alabutan and Sonomu Alabutan were too young. Unable to command heavy troops. Therefore, Anuktun was entrusted with an important task by Sengge and became the head of Wanhu, the forward Wanhu and the left guard Wanhu of the royal court.
Now Sengge is dead, leaving behind two young legitimate sons and Anukedun, who holds a heavy army... However, the Mongolian throne (Khan throne) succession rules have always been a bit confusing. And, it is even possible for a cousin or nephew to ascend the throne. As long as he is elected by the "Kulitai Assembly", it is considered legal.
In the Kuritai Conference of the Mongols, they often competed to see who had the strongest soldiers and horses!
Galdan, who owns thousands of households in the Chu River and has gathered most of the Uzang and Shuote tribes, must be considered a strong soldier... He also has the support of Emperor Ming and Prince Zhu. If he can rely on it again, According to the Mongolian tradition of transfer marriage, if he married the powerful Anukedun, he would definitely be the next king of Jungar.
And this is what Anukodon himself meant! Her envoy, the Mingzhu Lama, is now in Galdan's tent, and is inviting Galdan to become the "soft rice king" at the Shibao Palace!
"Wanhu, Kedun has made an agreement with Wang Shufu Wanhu (Chuhu'er Ubas) and the two young masters to elect you as the new king at the Kuritai Conference. Kedun has Two ten thousand households, the two young masters each lead one ten thousand households, Uncle Wang has another ten thousand households, plus your Chuhe ten thousand households, there will be six ten thousand households to support you... ten thousand households , everything is ready now, waiting for you to go to Stone Castle King City to become the king!"
After listening to Mingzhu Lama's words, Galdan was quite dumbfounded. I worked so hard these days, but in the end it was all in vain... It was the same result as lying in Chuhe Mansion doing nothing!
Because his sister-in-law Anu has arranged everything, as long as he passes by, he can become the "soft rice king" of the Zhungeer Kingdom!
Oh, that's not right either...Gerdan suddenly realized that his current situation was worse than just lying down and not moving!
Because when you lie down and don't move, you only have a soft meal to eat, so just open your mouth.
After a lot of trouble, he successfully attracted the attention of Emperor Zhu Cixiang of the Ming Dynasty and sent him another soft rice, and this soft rice was even more powerful!
Galdan is a good friend of the wealthy king, he knows very well who Fan Anu is!
Although that girl smiles to everyone and calls herself "mean maid" and "servant", which seems to be very mean, but Prince Lucky and the rich king call her "Sister Anu"!
Moreover, every time Prince Luck and the Tuhao King enter the palace to meet Emperor Zhu, they will prepare a "small gift" for "Sister Anu"... None of the sisters of the Prince of Luck and the Tuhao King receive such treatment. ah!
On one side was Anukedun, who had two thousand households and a strong army. She offended her, and Galdan lost the support of two ten thousand households at the Kuritai Conference.
On one side are the lucky prince and the wealthy king's "Sister Anu"! After offending her, the Ming Emperor was furious. Even if he became king, he might not last long.
Galdan realized that he couldn't even afford to offend him... It turned out that this soft rice king was not that easy to be!
"Master Pearl!" Galdan was anxious, "Princess Anu, whom the Emperor of Ming Dynasty granted marriage to, is coming soon... Do you know who she is? She is the Emperor's slave... ..The only personal slave!
And she is a personal slave who has grown up beside the great emperor since she was a child! I have to marry her for sure! If I marry her, then my sister-in-law... If I don't marry her, the Emperor will be furious and my sister-in-law won't be able to protect me!
Master Pearl, you must give me an idea! "
