The other reserve generals all looked at each other.
"Water source?"
"this……"
"What does this have to do with water sources?"
These young generals are all confused.
Qin Changfeng looked at Zhai Shiqing encouragingly.
Zhai Shiqing chuckled and took out a map.
This is exactly the map of the entire Central Asia today! Zhai Shiqing pointed to a raised place on the map. This was the Bukhara Khanate!
He smiled and said: "Alimu's goal is here!"
"What?"
"this……"
"Bukhara?"
A group of people were shocked.
Then, they all took a deep breath of air.
It turns out that Alimu’s ambition lies in the Bukhara Khanate!
The Bukhara Khanate was an Islamic state in the Transoxiana region of Central Asia. It was the territory of the former Central Asian tyrants, the descendants of Timur, who controlled trade in the middle section of the Silk Road. It had many big cities and a high economic and cultural level.
As for the history of Central Asia, I will not go into details here.
However, the centuries-old struggle between the Bukhara Khanate and the Khiva Khanate gave the Kokand Khanate the opportunity to break away from the control of Bukhara, so the Kokand Khanate became independent from the Bukhara Khanate.
During the mutual conquests between these two Central Asian powers, the Kokand Khanate took advantage of the situation to gain strength and began to seize cities and territories from these two countries. As a result, these two old khanates declined one after another, and the Kokand Khanate began to run rampant in Central Asia.
However.
The struggle between the Kokand Khanate and Bukhara continued, but they were never able to really eat Bukhara.
There is only one reason,
Bukhara controls water resources and irrigation systems in almost the entire Central Asia region! The water resources controlled by Bukhara as a whole account for about 60% of the entire Central Asia region, ranking eighth in the world! The per capita amount of water resources ranks first in the world.
The Amu Darya, Zerafshan, and Syr Darya rivers are all under the control of Bukhara, making many countries salivate.
Central Asia is located in the hinterland of the Eurasian continent and has a typical continental climate. Rainfall is scarce and the climate is extremely dry. The amount of water evaporated is much greater than the amount of precipitation. The desert covers an area of more than one million square kilometers, accounting for more than a quarter of the total area of Central Asia. The problem of land salinization is serious, desertification areas are expanding, and the water quality of almost all rivers is deteriorating.
In this situation.
Water sources have become something that every country in Central Asia will compete for.
This also made the Bukhara Khanate a target of public criticism.
Whether it is the Mughal Empire, the Khiva Khanate, or the Kokand Khanate, they are all eyeing Bukhara, a country of mountains and water sources.
The reason why the Kokand Khanate has not been able to develop is because its geographical location is too arid and agricultural development has been greatly restricted.
Enemies surround him.
This is also the situation facing Bukhara today.
"This... you are saying that Alimu wants to take advantage of our war with the Mughals to target Bukhara?"
Many people were shocked by Zhai Shiqing's idea.
Zhai Shiqing chuckled: "That's for sure! There is no better opportunity than this time, right? If our Liangzhou army can contain the Mughal army of 100,000, the Mughal army will definitely have no time to take care of Bukhara. At this time , Alimu and Khiva Khanate, if they attack Bukhara at the same time, not only will Bukhara be unable to resist, but the Mughals will also suffer a big loss!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Qin Changfeng also nodded and smiled: "Keep talking!"
Zhai Shiqing smiled calmly: "General Qin, the last general thinks that we are not as good as us, so he will use his plan!"
"What?"
Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed.
…
"Haven't you found it yet? Haven't you found it yet?"
Omar has been going crazy lately.
A group of people knelt on the ground in silence, shaking their heads.
"Trash, they are all a bunch of trash!"
Omar was going crazy.
It will be two months soon!
Two months!
The two most important people of the mission from Liangzhou could not be found!
How should he explain this?
The 50,000-strong army led by Qin Changfeng is already on the way and will be here soon! If he couldn't find Zheng Yueru and Lian Guang before the army arrived, he was afraid that the Liangzhou army would break through the city gate soon!
Can the Putu Dynasty survive?
Not really.
That's 50,000 Liangzhou troops! Even if they can defeat it, I am afraid that the Putu Dynasty will lose its competitiveness in Central Asia.
This is not the ending he wanted.
How to please the Longyan people?
This is what Omar has been thinking about in the past few days.
He had to prepare for the worst.
General Ruona Zheng really died in the desert. How will he appease the anger of Long Yanren?
If she was not dead, what kind of concessions should I make to make this matter go away?
Today's five Central Asian countries, the Kingdom of Putu and the Mughals, are the most powerful, followed by the Khanate of Kokand, Bukhara, and Khiva. But once the dragon flame army reaches here, the situation will be different...
Hug Long Yan Dynasty’s thigh!
This is what Omar thinks is the smartest choice!
"try to find!"
"Keep looking for me!"
"yes……"
…
Zheng Yueru and the other two walked less and less hastily.
After a few days of being impulsive about cursing Liu Zheng, that scumbag, Zheng Yueru also calmed down in her heart.
She actually knew it too.
The young master is under great pressure and has many things to do.
As Liu Zheng's sphere of influence expands, there are too many things to worry about.
On the one hand, if we want to prevent the invasion of the Ottoman Empire, we must manage Central Asia.
On the other hand, he himself has to take care of matters in Southeast Asia.
So although she was still unhappy in her heart, Zheng Yueru could understand.
This is the best choice to put pressure on the Putu Kingdom.
then.
She began to count the days when Qin Changfeng could reach Putu, so she slowed down her speed.
Anyway.
There is food and drink every day.
There are still people who can "protect" themselves, so why not?
In a cave again.
"Ah ah ah, General Zheng, there is dried meat here again, ah, and there is also wine!"
Lian Guang, that idiot, sounded excitedly again.
Zheng Yueru couldn't laugh or cry.
This is the situation, why can't he see anything?
But also...
The matters behind the support of these organizations in Silver Beach City are all top secret. No one will know except Mr. Liu Zheng and her.
It seems now.
Zheng Yueru is very satisfied with the capabilities of this Tata organization. Along the way, the two of them still encountered some idle thieves, but they were easily eliminated by the Tata people.
It's not in vain to spend so much money to build them.
Zheng Yueru was relaxing in a stream near the cave, washing up, and then came back to make a fire.
His eyes were already a little erratic.
have no idea.
How is the situation over there with the young master...
after all.
The weather is getting a little cooler.
