846 The Safavid Dynasty's God-given Opportunity

At the same time, in the northeast of Delhi, although it seemed very quiet, it seemed that they were sleeping soundly.

However, in fact, all the soldiers in the army had gotten up quietly and were waiting for the signal of siege.

To be honest, they marched in a hurry and were really tired. They just couldn't sleep in the middle of the night before going to bed. However, the command from the superiors said that they would attack the city in the early morning to prepare for the place so that they would not be able to catch up with entering the city and eat less fat.

I waited and waited, and I always felt that time passed slowly while waiting. In the era where there was no watch, I had to rely on observing the astronomical phenomena to estimate the time, so I felt even more difficult to wait. So much so that after that, the soldiers who were extremely tired fell asleep holding the weapons.

However, Dalantai did not sleep. On the contrary, he was very energetic and kept looking at Delhi in the distance. However, he could not see anything abnormal, which made his suspiciousness gradually become stronger.

After all, Delhi is the capital of the Mughal Empire, far taller and stronger than the cities he could capture before. In addition, his troops will definitely not be less. He used the lives of the Mughals to pile up the city with the lives of the Mughals. But now, the Ming army has never attacked Delhi at all, and has not consumed the equipment to defend the city, and the energy and number of soldiers guarding the city. Can this successfully steal the city?

If you really want to steal the city and you can steal Delhi, then the siege will not be that difficult. Is it better to steal the city?

Thinking of this in my heart, Da Lantai turned his head from time to time to look at the sky in the east, and was worried that it would be dawn suddenly, so he would steal a bird!

Suddenly, Jimda, who was beside him, said to him excitedly: "Your Highness, look over there, there seems to be a fire."

Isn't it normal to have fire at night? There are fires on the top of Delhi's city! Da Lantai thought so in his heart, but he still looked up when he heard the sound.

I saw a fire lit up outside the city in the southeast of Delhi. No, it was a fire dragon, heading into the city. There was no obstacle, and I entered through the city gate.

Later, Dalantai also saw that there were already fires on the top of the city over there, extending along the city wall to both sides. At this time, some gunfire and faint shouts of killing could be heard.

"Have you really attacked the city?" After seeing it clearly, Dalantai couldn't help but be shocked, "Have you really stole the city?"

"Yes, Your Highness, you really attacked the city. Your Highness, you have attacked the city." Jimuda replied excitedly, his voice a little loud and it was a little far away.

So, many soldiers saw it and immediately felt like they were hit by a pie from the sky. They all shouted excitedly: "The Ming army has attacked, the Ming army has attacked..."

The soldiers who were confused, napping, and sleeping, all of them were awakened and looked towards Delhi.

At this time, the shouts of killing were already a little obvious. On the city head in the southeast direction, two fire dragons had already rushed far away, and the firelight in the city could also be seen spreading. Obviously, the Ming army continued to pass through the city gate and had already bloomed everywhere in the city.

"The Emperor of Ming Dynasty is really the Buddha who came to the world!" Dalantai had to sigh and then shouted, "The whole army sets off!"

Just as their side began to echo the siege, the Ming army outside the city began to respond in other directions in Delhi. In just a moment, Delhi, which was originally silent in the night, suddenly became very lively.

Not long after, the sky to the west finally turned white. After experiencing the darkest moment, dawn came.

At this time, inside and outside Delhi, there were Mughal shouts everywhere: "Those who surrender will not die!"

Three of the city gates in Delhi have been opened, all of which have been opened from the inside. The Ming army outside the city has been continuously attacking the city. There are many places in the city that have already become popular, among which, the palace is the most obvious.

Needless to say, it was inevitable that Delhi was captured by the Ming army. The nobles in the city did not want to be judged by the untouchables, so many people set fire to themselves.

Outside the city, looking at the Chaoyang that had just jumped out of the mountain in the east, Emperor Chongzhen stretched and said to Fang Zhenghua, the eunuch who was waiting beside him to protect him, "I'll go to bed for a while, I'm still sleepy now!"

Now that the city has been attacked, it will take at least half a day to take all the Ming army to occupy Delhi, control the situation, put out the fire, etc.

When Fang Zhenghua heard this, he immediately ordered the Jinyiwei to guard the surrounding area to make the movement less and not to hinder the emperor from sleeping.

………………………………………

At this time, the Persian Empire to the west of the Mughal Empire was the Safi Dynasty. In their capital, Ghazwen, the emperor of this generation was Abbas II, the last promising emperor in the Safi Dynasty. He had just been in personal expedition for a few years.

At this time, although he had not been dawn for a long time, he was already meeting his ministers.

"What?" Abbas II stood up from the throne in surprise and confirmed, "You said that the army invaded the Mughals. Now the Mughals are in chaos. Their governors have sent people to contact us?"

The power of the Mughal Empire at this time was the most felt by Abbas II, who was a neighbor. Although he regained Kandahar from Shah Jahan a few years ago, he was later recaptured by Shah Jahan again, which shows that.

Of course, what he could not imagine was that the Ming Kingdom was far away from here, so why did it attack the Mughals, and it also attacked from the northwest of the Mughals.

The minister kneeling beneath was his loyal minister of government. His Prime Minister Burkina, although he was old, would die of illness in two years if he developed according to the original history. However, at this time, he was excited and told Abbas II: "Your Majesty, I don't know what the Emperor of Ming Dynasty thought. Just a little man came to attack Mughals. Not only that, he also robbed the rich and powerful people, and distributed their property to the untouchables, but also let those untouchables judge the rich and powerful people. This is really a great opportunity for the Safi Dynasty!"

Speaking of this in one breath, I was afraid that I was being held back, so I tried my best to take a breath, my face turned red, and I immediately replied to Abbas II: "Not only the Governor of Kandahar, but also the Governor of Lahore, who are close to us, they have sent people to ask for help from us. They are willing to submit to Your Majesty, only asking Your Majesty to send troops. This opportunity is once a lifetime and once a lifetime!"

The Safi Dynasty had two main enemies, one was the Ottoman Empire, which was a feud. It had been fought for countless years. In general, the Ottoman Empire was still stronger. However, at this time, the two sides had signed a contract and did not fight again.

Another one is the Mughal Empire that has risen in recent years, especially after Shah Jahan's rule, the Mughal Empire began to expand westward and seized many parts of the Safi Dynasty, including the important Kandahar.

Now the Mughal Empire is in trouble and has become a mess. Although I don’t know why this situation happened and what the Shah Jahan was doing, it is undeniable that for the Safi Dynasty, this is definitely a matter of falling from the sky. It can be obtained without a single soldier and a soldier. It is no wonder that the veteran minister, the prime minister who is almost buried, is so excited.

Abbas II was ambitious and an emperor who wanted to revive Persia. When he heard such good news, how could he be more calm than his prime minister? He almost jumped up happily.

So he immediately summoned the messengers of the Mughal local governors, asked them personally, and then immediately summoned his important officials, and under the auspices of Prime Minister Burkina, he urgently convened the most important meeting of the empire.

Needless to say, no one can resist such a good opportunity and such great contribution to expanding territory. Although some people are worried, will this conflict with the Ming Dynasty? What if Shah Jahan repels the Ming Dynasty's invasion?

Abbas II did not care about these issues at all. There was never any loyalty between countries. As long as there was a profit, it was normal to draw a knife to face each other and take your life while you were sick.

Now there is a rare opportunity. The governor of the northwest of the Mughal Empire is willing to submit to him. How could he not eat this fat meat delivered to him?

As for whether to face Ming Kingdom or Shah Jahan in the future, what are you afraid of? Just fight. If you can’t beat it, it’s not too late to return it. If you can fight, will you be the Safi Dynasty?

It was based on this idea that the Safi Dynasty urgently mobilized 100,000 troops, claiming to be 500,000. Abbas II personally led the army to accept the new territory.

Prime Minister Burkina Khalifa was in charge of the capital, preparing food and grass for the army and subsequent troops, and continuously sent them to the east.

Before leaving, Abbas II said with great emotion to Burj Khalifa: "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty didn't know what he thought, but he actually tried to please those untouchables? In this way, it would be a real advantage."

Burj Khalifa laughed and pointed his hand into the sky, saying that it was God and Buddha's blessing. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty came here to give gifts to the empire!

If Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was there, he could know the principle that water could carry boats and overturn boats, and he would definitely know what the Emperor of Ming Dynasty did, which should never be underestimated.

However, whether it is Abbas II or the mature Burj Khalifa, like most nobles, they did not care about the untouchables at all, and it was even more impossible to realize how powerful Emperor Chongzhen's move was!
