1326 messed up
On Dhaka's side, Shah Jahan was still preparing, but on Goa, the war had already begun.
Aurangzeb was full of confidence and secretly swore in his heart before setting off that he must fight this battle well, so that his father's Khan would be admired and establish his position in his father's Khan in one fell swoop.
For this reason, he led his army to the expedition. When he was about to reach Goa, he decisively led his cavalry and left his infantry behind and accelerated his attack into Goa.
Speaking of which, the Ming Dynasty has not been fought for a long time in Goa, and it is still in the digestive stage. If he had not known it in advance, Aurangzeb's decisiveness would probably catch the Ming army off guard.
However, the Ming army had a chat group to contact us immediately. The secret spies lurking along the way saw Aurangzebu leading the cavalry alone. Before they could go far away, the Ming army in Goa received news and accelerated their targeting.
Therefore, Aurangzeb led two thousand cavalrymen and held his breath. The attack was indeed like a dragon, without any stagnation, and kept attacking forward.
However, what made him a little depressed was that the Ming army was hiding in the city, and he was just a cavalry and could not attack the city at all. In this regard, he ordered the infantry behind to follow quickly, while quickly continuing to penetrate deeper, trying to attack the other Ming army off guard.
However, no matter how fast he was, he had never encountered the Ming army in the wild. The Ming army in Goa was all shrunk in a limited number of cities.
Although Aurangzebu was a little regretful, he didn't care much about this. Looking at the Ming flag fluttering in the wind in front of him, looking at the red military uniform on the top of the city, he pointed at the top of the city with a horse whip and shouted confidently: "The turtle hides in the shell and cannot escape the fate of being eaten by the eagle!"
After saying that, he took the reins, turned the horse's head, and ordered: "Go, join the infantry and ate the turtle shell!"
Like his father Khan, he did not expect that when they began to prepare for the siege, the Ming army had actually taken action first, but was not on the battlefield they had planned.
One day earlier, countless Ming navys appeared on the sea in Mumbai. Without any resistance, the army led by Dunklu landed here.
Mumbai was originally occupied by the Portuguese. After Schvira fled from the Lion Kingdom, she knew that Portugal could not compete with the Ming army with its strength in the Far East. Therefore, when she fled to the base of Mumbai, she plundered all the things here and evacuated them with the Portuguese here.
After the Portuguese left, the Mughal Empire sent a local army to pick up the bargain. In fact, there was no cheaper to pick up. When the Portuguese left, they never thought that they would come back, so naturally nothing would be left. Therefore, there were not many people from the Mughal Empire in Mumbai. They were shocked when they saw the red ocean landing, and they dared to resist.
The Ming army led by Dengklu only took a short rest in Mumbai and immediately launched an attack northward. This place was not originally a region that the Mughal Empire attached great importance to, so the defense was very weak. When the officials of the Mughal Empire heard that the Ming army was attacking, they quickly fled back and hurriedly sent messengers to report the message.
As the retreating Mughal army increased, they finally felt that the number was enough, so they wanted to stay and block the Ming army. After all, if they kept running, Shah Jahan would be furious and his life would be difficult to save.
Not only that, they were a little self-aware and felt that the Ming army was more elite than their army, so they also gathered surrounding troops, such as the army on the side of Kandra Port.
However, what they did not expect was that before the army had assembled to deal with the Ming army on the side of Dunklu, the Ming Marines landed in Kandra Port. Under the attack from north to south, the Mughal local army, which was originally a mob, suddenly collapsed.
The Ming army sent all the captured officials, as long as the people who had status in the Mughal Empire, to tell them that the Ming army came to execute the evil Mughal nobles, liberated them, and gave them a good life. Then, regardless of these people, the army immediately headed north.
The Mughals didn't believe what the Ming army said at first, and their first thought was to escape. After seeing that the Ming army controlled them, they stopped running away, gathered together in groups of three or three, and curiously discussed what it meant for these Oriental people to come to them.
"You guys say, will Mingjun really give us a good life?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's a lie to us? Since ancient times, who has treated us as human beings?"
"Don't worry about him. Anyway, they didn't kill us or enslave us, so let's not worry about it!"
“…”
Among them, there was a businessman who had different opinions and said, "It's true that you should know that in Bangladesh, it had been occupied by the Ming army long ago. When I went to the nearby country to do business, I heard some news!"
When he said this, everyone around him was very interested and surrounded him to inquire about the Ming Dynasty. When the merchant saw it, he did not hide it and told him everything he knew.
"I heard from the government that you see these Ming people from the East. They look different from us, just like those Western barbarians. Think about how Western barbarians treat us. Therefore, the same is true for those Eastern people, and they do not regard us as human beings at all. In Bangladesh, they all live in dire straits!"
Hearing this, everyone around him took a breath, shook their heads and sighed. Several people even cursed and said that they almost believed them.
However, before they had finished complaining, the businessman raised his voice and interrupted their discussion: "However, the news about the Ming army I heard from my local business partners in private is completely different from what the government said!"
As soon as he said this, he immediately attracted everyone's attention. Those who were sighing raised their heads, with curiosity on their faces.
"My business partners said that there is no distinction between lowly races in Bangladesh. Only those who are punished for crimes are lowly. No matter who they are, as long as they are under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, they will be treated equally and abide by the Ming Dynasty's laws and regulations, and will be protected by the Ming Dynasty!"
Hearing this, someone immediately confirmed in surprise: "Didn't that mean that what Ming Jun said is true?"
When the others heard this, they looked at the businessman with a breath of hope, looking for a confirmed result.
When the merchant saw it, hesitated for a while, nodded slightly and said, "If you want me to see, it is probably true. But I have never seen it before, so I dare not be 100% sure!"
Although he said that, these people immediately showed joy, and one of them said their thoughts: "If this is true, that would be great!"
As these people dispersed, news about the Ming army began to spread slowly in the heart of the Mughal Empire.
Delhi, where the capital of the Mughal Empire was located, left-behind officials were frightened when they heard that a Ming army had landed from the sea and rushed to Delhi. The main army of the empire was taken away by Shah Jahan. After several transmissions of the news, and with the bonus of panic, the number of Ming troops was amplified, especially when they heard that the Ming army was dedicated to killing nobles. The nobles along the way fled to Delhi one after another.
While the Delhi officials issued a death order, they asked the local troops on the Ming army to actively resist the Ming army. At the same time, they also dispatched local troops from the north, hoping to strengthen the defense in the south. At the same time, they sent messengers to Bangladesh in a hurry and reported to Shah Jahan again.
However, they never expected that after Dunkrug discovered that the number of Indian troops in front of him increased, he told Gushihan who was waiting in the north through a chat group.
So, the next time is Gu Shihan's performance time.
His army had already secretly rested in the Nepal area. After hearing the news, he immediately rushed south and rushed straight to Delhi. Compared with the strict discipline of the Ming army, Gushikhan's army was a little worse. The panic effect brought about was better. Especially in the Mughals' eyes, it was the Ming and Tibetan countries who united to fight them, and they felt even more desperate.
There was no elite army in his hand and he felt irresistible. The only way was to send one messenger after another, rushing to Shah Jahan and other people with elite troops to report the news.
The old nest is about to be taken over, and the Mughal hinterland is already in chaos. If you don’t come back, what’s the use of winning?
Goa and Aurangzeb led two thousand cavalry to deploy around the city, and the scouts sent from afar to cut off the possibility of reinforcements from the other cities. Seeing the infantry and civilians busy preparing to attack the city, they couldn't help but feel very happy.
Although the Ming army in this city is full of flags, he has actually discovered that there are not many Ming army inside, with many flags, just bluffing: "Haha, have you seen that the general city defense must be at least three or more soldiers on duty. But do you see that although there are many Ming army on the city, I have already remembered the faces of some of them. In fact, there are only two groups of people on duty. This shows that the Ming army looks like many people in uniform, but I didn't expect that I was seen through by this prince!"
When his subordinates heard this, although they had no impression, they still believed in the intelligence of the coach and immediately flattered them.
Aurangzeb enjoyed this and was in a good mood, so he taught his experience to the people below: "Generally speaking, the first city on the border is deployed with heavy troops, which is the normal human nature. The commander of the Ming army probably used this common sense to make small tricks. Thinking that our army should also know this, we would not attack the city guarded by heavy troops, and instead attack the city in the hinterland of Goa. In this way, we happened to encounter the city guarded by the Ming army, which was really heavily guarded by the Ming army, so the Ming army might have defended the city!"
Speaking of this, he sneered: "If the war lasts a little longer, our aura will be lost, and the Ming army in this city will be able to seize the retreat of our army. In this way, our army will be in danger! The tricks of the Ming army are nothing more than this!"
Hearing this, his subordinates suddenly realized that the flattery of not having money was like the water of the Yellow River, with endless waves. He was proud of Aurangzebu, and he felt that the Khanate of the Mughal Empire was the only one who belonged to him, and the other princes were just scumbags.
"Your Highness is so amazing. No matter how cunning the Ming army is as good as a fox, it is useless!"
"With His Highness in the Mughal Empire, I will definitely be stronger every day!"
"Yes, if Khan knew His Highness's true talents, he would definitely be very pleased!"
“…”
After saying a while, some people came to report that the siege equipment was ready.
When Aurangzebu heard this, he looked at the Ming army flag on the top of the city and sneered: "It is not as expected by this prince, there are only so many Ming troops inside, and he sent so many people to rotate on duty, but he wasted energy. This city will be in a battle!"
After saying that, he rode his horse to the front of the formation, inspected the next infantry, and was about to order an attack, but he found something was wrong. He saw a horse in the distance, carrying a hundred thousand urgent flags, speeding towards him.
This surprised Aurangzeb. The first thing he thought of was, could it be that his father Khan had lost the battle?
After being surprised, he came to his senses. If his father was defeated, would he have to rush back to Delhi immediately?
In just a short time, Aurangzebu's thoughts revolved around the golden sweat position.
The messenger came to him in a flash, rolled down from his horse, and gasped for breath, saying, "Your Highness, it's not good. The Ming army landed from the sea and is now heading towards Delhi. It's invincible. Please return to help immediately!"
After saying that, he held the urgent letter in both hands.
When Aurangzeb heard this, he immediately showed a shock on his face like his subordinates. Several people even opened their mouths in surprise!
Ming army...How could the Ming army suddenly appear in the hinterland? Are they not afraid of the imperial army? Or do they know that the imperial army has left? But this is impossible in terms of time!
Unable to think of the reason, Aurangzebu temporarily threw it behind his mind, immediately snatched the letter and started to look at it.
At a glance, the contents of the letter are more detailed than the verbal report by the messenger. At least the Ming army's troops, the approximate offensive routes, and the wars that have already occurred, and the Ming army's combat power are roughly described.
It can be said that the Ming army was indeed invincible. The cities along the way could be fought if they could be fought, and if they felt it was difficult to fight, they would be spared. Anyway, there was no opponent in the wild, and the troops were advancing straight towards Delhi. This situation was like in the original history, during the Chongzhen period, the Qing army entered the pass several times.
However, one thing is that the Ming army's actions in the heart of the Mughals were completely different from those of the Qing army. The Ming army did not plunder all supplies, plunder the population, and destroy everything that could be destroyed, but instead targeted all the nobles of the Mughal Empire, who were caught and killed. On the contrary, the civilians and those lowly people were fine, and even some untouchables could get some money from the capture of the Ming army.
This is great! After Aurangzeb finished watching, he never looked at the city in front of him again. He immediately ordered the assembly of cavalry troops and wanted to rush back to Delhi to help.
Chapter completed!
