Résumé En

During the first period of its establishment, the dGa’ ldan pho brang engaged in numerous wars, both to quell internal turmoil and to confront neighboring powers that were perceived as threatening. These conflicts often saw the engagement of Mongol troops alongside Tibetan soldiers, and the employment of Tibetan and Mongol generals alike, sometimes working in conjunction. Trough the use of sources composed at the same time as or not long after these conflicts, such as the autobiography of the Fifth Dalai Lama and the Mi dbang rtogs brjod, the proposed paper will examine questions related to the amalgamation of these different armies, briefly illustrating historical examples of their collaboration and especially considering the questions of whether dGe lugs pa hierarchs, and the Fifth Dalai Lama in particular, expressed a preference toward utilizing one or the other, or displayed an awareness of how the two worked in conjunction.
