Chapter 922 Unified Central Asia

Compared to Zhang Fugui and Huang Dahu who destroyed the Chechen Khanate, the Bukhara Khanate, which Li Yan had to deal with, was stronger. They were originally one of the anti-Ming alliances. Because of an emergency in the country, the Great Khan Subukhan led his troops back to quell the rebellion.

Since he had arrived in Central Asia, Zhu Cilang simply destroyed the Khanate here, and in the future, the border would be sent to quell the rebellion.

The Bukhara Khanate is the current Uzbek. They are neighboring countries with the Kazakh Khanate. Li Yan led the cavalry to sweep the whole way for two days to surround the Bukhara Khanate.

The governor of the Bukhara Khanate was also called Bukhara. At that time, it was not as powerful as the Kazakh Khanate. It was a Khanate. It was even more prepared to be the e Khanate where the Iranians and Turks were mixed with military and education.

During the heyday of the Bukhara Khanate, there was a powerful army, with cavalry as the main force, forming the mainstay. The cavalry was divided into heavy cavalry with men and horses wearing armor, and light cavalry with abandoned armor.

The Uzbeks and the Tajiks are both fierce and warlike knights, and they are skilled in bowing and horses.

Central and Western Asia's military equipment was the most exquisite forged by Persian craftsmen. Most of the official workshops of the Bukhara Dynasty hired Persian craftsmen to create swords and armor.

Bukhara warriors are mostly equipped with headscarves, chain armor, mail, four-mirror armor and other guardrails.

The weapons include compound bows, axes, spears, shields, Damascus swords, maces, etc. The overall military equipment is similar to the Safavi Empire and the Ottoman Empire.

Although the Bukhara Khanate was also very strong at this time, unfortunately they encountered the Ming army with well-equipped and well-trained and fully used thermal weapons.

Whether it is a cavalry or swords, guns, swords and halberds, it can only end up in defeat in front of the Great Open Firearm.

What's to be a big deal is that the Khanate, which is the main body of nomads, is good at riding horses and charging, and it's really bad to let them defend the city.

Li Yan's army easily broke through the Bukhara wall with artillery, and the Ming army quickly entered the city to form a formation.

Countless small square formations were advancing rapidly in the city, allowing this powerful horse-stricken nation to suffer.

It took half a day to capture the palace and capture the entire city, but their royal family was very backbone and did not surrender on a large scale from beginning to end, which led to the Ming army's merciless destruction.

The three armies destroyed several Khanate countries. Other small countries and tribes in Central Asia were frightened to death. No one resisted and surrendered to express his eternal loyalty to the Ming Dynasty.

Five days later, the three armies successfully returned to Turkestan, and Central Asia was under the control of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Cixuan ordered the entire army to hold a banquet to celebrate, and to remember the meritorious soldiers. He would reward the troops when the troops returned to the court.

The Mughal Dynasty, our powerful neighbor, was not much better at this time, and the fleet led by Zheng Chenggong easily landed in Mumbai.

Although Asan has always been very strong in his mouth, he can be said to have never lost to any country or individual.

But for thousands of years, whether in the East or the West, all ethnic groups and great people who are somewhat famous in history have almost abused Ah San.

For example, the Aryans, Persians, Macedonians, Arabs, Turks, Mongolians, and Greeks.

There are also many who are not famous at all, and they also show off their power and act rampant when they come to India, such as the Dayuezhi people and the White Huns.

There was even a Tang Dynasty envoy named Wang Xuance who beat India up and down with just a few thousand troops, and bowed down and surrendered, creating the miracle of "one person destroys one country".

Lao Ma once said that India's history is without history, at least without a well-known history, and India's history is just the history of invaders.

Lao Ma is a great scholar, with a graceful and polite words. In fact, if you want to say that the history of India is a history of abuse.

In India's history, there was almost no time for all unification. Most of the time, ancient India was not one country, but several countries or even a group of countries.

The personnel composition of India is very complex, with more than 100 ethnic groups, and the main ethnic groups are far less prominent than other countries. The Hindustans, the most populous, only account for 30% of the total population.

The earliest Indian natives were called the Darapi Cha people, and the civilization established by the Darapi Cha people was called the Harapa civilization.

After the decline of the Harapa civilization, the first wave of invaders came.

The Aryans from the West crossed the Khyber Pass and quickly defeated the Darobicha people and conquered the entire northern India.

The Aryans established a group of countries, and they didn't like each other and fought every now and then, which was a bit like our Warring States Period.

However, during the Warring States Period in India, it did not lead to a unified centralized empire like China, but instead attracted a powerful enemy.

The second wave of invaders came, they were Persians.

In the East, the Persians defeated the Aryans and conquered India. But in the West, the Persians met the more powerful Greeks.

What was particularly unlucky was that the leader of the Greeks they met was the powerful Alexander the Great.

Alexander fought Persia without any pressure, and he stepped on the Persian corpses all the way to India.

Alexander and his subordinates were so emotionally rich that they didn't look like conquers. They missed their relatives more during the holidays.

So he retreated before he stayed in India. On the way, Alexander died of sudden illness.

As soon as the class teacher left, the students started to make trouble. The Indian Chandragupta rose up and drove the Greeks left by Alexander out of India, and established a huge empire by itself.

It is said that the Chandragupta family was a professional peacock breeder, so the empire he founded was called the Mauryan Dynasty.

The Mauryan Dynasty is a rare local long-lived dynasty in Indian history, and it has existed for more than 100 years.

After the Mauryan Dynasty, the fourth wave of invaders came. They were old friends with the Chinese people. We have seen them in history books. The names are simple to write, but they are troublesome to read - Dayuezhi.

The Great Yuezhi originally lived in the northwest of my country. Because she was often bullied by another old friend of the Chinese people, the Huns, she had no choice but to leave her family and go to India to try her luck.

As the saying goes, a tree moves to die, and a person moves to live.

The Great Yuezhi was a veteran warrior in the East. Unexpectedly, he became a god of war when he ran to India. He easily took down a large area of ​​land, grew into a giant dynasty, and had a cold name - the Kushan Empire.

The Kushan Empire, the Roman Empire, the Rest Empire, and the Han Dynasty were also known as the four major empires of Eurasia at that time.

Citrus grows in Huainan and is made of oranges. It seems that sometimes it is too difficult to make it in China, so it is still necessary to try your luck abroad.

The Kushan Empire lived longer than the Mauryan Dynasty and existed for more than 200 years.

Later, another great man named Chandragupta I finally appeared in India, which was similar to the founder of the Mauryan Dynasty.

It seems that if you want to be a great man in India, you have to give him such a name.

Chandragupta I unified most of India and established the Gupta Empire.
