If Mahmud was able to accept a temporary defeat on the frontal battlefield, the fall of Mount Siwa put him in a dilemma.

Will the troops be withdrawn, or will they continue to confront the Ming army in Allahabad?

He had already seen the range of the Ming artillery, and once the Ming army moved the artillery array to Mount Siwa, he could condescend to do whatever he wanted with his battalion.

This battle has no need to be fought at all.

"Sultan, the artillery positions at the head of the Ming army began to shift, and they unloaded their artillery."

Mahmud's forehead began to sweat from the Ranger's report, and he knew he had to make a decision as soon as possible.

All I could hear was the chirping of dozens of governors.

"The Ming army has artillery, and we are not opponents in the frontal battle, Sultan, let's withdraw."

After throwing nearly 20,000 corpses like this, he retreated to Delhi in embarrassment?

Not to mention the loss of face, just for the sake of the overall situation, Mahmud is not willing to give up Allahabad just like that.

Since the commander of the Ming army knew the importance of Allahabad, the Ming army would definitely do its best to expand this advantage.

For example, calling on all caste slaves to launch a counteroffensive against Delhi?

Even the slogan Mahmud was thought of for the Ming army.

"Drive out the invaders and cults and restore the great glory of Hinduism."

True, even though the Delhi Sultanate has been on this land for hundreds of years, they will always be aggressors.

The indigenous people of India may have been willing to accept the rule of the Delhi Sultanate, but in terms of religion, they undoubtedly supported their own indigenous sects rather than building mosques everywhere.

"We don't have a choice, we can only fight."

Mahmud hurriedly paced back and forth in the camp: "While the Ming army has not yet transferred the artillery array to Siwa Mountain, we only need to break through the artillery coverage area of the Ming army to achieve short-range combat. ”

Break through the artillery coverage of the Ming army?

The dozens of governors were shocked, and they all understood what Mahmud meant, and they were determined to fill it with their lives.

"Allahabad can't be lost, you know, next year will be the Little Kett Festival, and six years later will be the Big Kettle Festival."

Mahmud stared at his red eyes and said in a deep voice: "Unless we kill all the living creatures in this land, otherwise, the information that Allahabad fell into the hands of Daming will be leaked sooner or later."

Whether it is Da Ming and the Zeatic Cult Organization, or the latter taking the initiative to seek cooperation with Da Ming, it is a result that we cannot afford.

What are we going to do? Leaving the land laid down by the ancestors?

Even if we leave, where can we go, go north to fight the Timurid Khanate, or go all the way west, along the road left by the Arab tribes to Europa. ”

The governors looked at each other left and right, and they all found it extremely tricky.

"Let's fight."

The Governor of Bombay sighed: "The Sultan is right, if we do not retake Allahabad, this land will inevitably leave the arms of Allah, and we, too, will lose it forever." ”

Expect Da Ming to retreat as soon as he was plundered like last time?

Even if the Ming army would withdraw, they would not give up Allahabad, because with this city in their hands, they could harvest this leek field to their heart's content.

The required slaves don't even need to take the initiative to send troops to plunder, the Hindu fanatics will take the initiative to help the Ming collect.

As for centuries, the Turkic nobility of the Delhi Sultanate enjoyed the same authority.

If Hinduism is preserved and the interests of the powerful in this sect are protected, then this group of religious leaders will kneel and lick the rulers.

They didn't care whether the rulers of the land that was supposed to belong to them were Turkic or Ming.

It's a strange race.

A spineless race.

When the commander-in-chief is unified in their opinions, then the next orders will be issued much more smoothly.

The Green Cult soldiers, with 10,000 people as the phalanx, were brainwashed and encouraged by their own generals, and temporarily forgot the fear brought by the artillery fire they had seen before.

"Artillery is not invincible, we have seen the so-called war elephants, and those heavy and huge beasts have also brought us fear, but in the end, it is not wailing and dying at our feet!"

"The light of Allah has always blessed us, and we want Allah to see our courage and faith, fearing that death will lead us to fall into the abyss forever and not return to the arms of Allah."

"Allah the Great is eternal, the Great Green Religion is eternal, Allah!"

"Allah!"

The sound of various slogans like ghosts crying and howling rose one after another in the military formation that stretched for dozens of miles, followed by the majestic sound of drums and horns.

The general offensive of the Delhi army began!

"The loss of positions on Mount Siwa irritated Mahmud."

Ma Dajun took a deep breath: "Chunsheng, send three thousand of our Ming athletes to Siwa Mountain to strengthen defense, be careful of Mahmud's trick of secretly playing Chen Cang, as long as Siwa Mountain is in our hands, this battle, he Mahmud will not be able to win!" ”

Chen Chunsheng was ordered to leave, and the command of the frontal battlefield was fully handed over to Ma Dajun.

The ground began to tremble, and the battle of the large group made the entire Gangetic plain tremble.

"Let the city open fire!"

Although half of the heavy artillery on the city was removed, there were still more than a hundred of them, and as the flag fell, they all let out a roar of rage.

Echoing from afar, the artillery arrays on the heights of Mount Siwa also began to launch artillery attacks on the charging Green Cult army formation.

Crossfire coverage.

"Give up the formation, spread out and charge!"

Seeing that the Ming army could kill several or even dozens of people with a single shot, Mahmud was furious, and he gave an order loudly, and a standard-bearer waved the order flag, passing his order to the military formation on the front line as soon as possible.

In the face of thermal weapons, the more neat the military formation, the more it suffers.

The airtight shield wall can stop the rain of arrows, but it definitely can't stop the powerful cannonballs.

When a shell falls, no matter how rigorous the military formation is, it will be smashed out of a blank area.

In this case, it is better to give up the formation and spread out to fight.

In the area covered by artillery fire, whoever runs faster will be alive.

"Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief, the enemy army is about to enter fifty zhang."

"Arquebus ready!"

Two hundred torches as thick as a baby's forearm were cut out, and one by one the torches were lit and placed on the ropes.

The smoke that burned and rose made the charging Green Cult soldiers involuntarily look frightened.

They know what's next.

The comrades-in-arms earlier were beaten into more than a dozen pieces by this thing.

"Allah is with us!"

Since fear of death does not delay the arrival of death, embrace it bravely!

A terrifying metal storm with a thick smell of gunpowder smoke swept in, and the thousands of Green Cultists who rushed to the front followed in the footsteps of their former comrades.

The stump is broken, and the whole body is like a sieve.

"Crossbowmen ready, raise your arms, shoot!"

The formation of the Green Cultists, which is completely scattered, is simply the best live target under the rain of arrows.

Ma Dajun's command flag was unfurled, and nearly 50,000 Chinese crossbowmen raised their arms in unison, and the sharp arrows pointed obliquely at the sky.

The bow is like a full moon, and the arrow can hit the star.

The Green Cult soldiers who rushed into the thirties and forties didn't have time to wipe off the fluffy blood mist on their faces, they felt that the sky above their heads was dark, and they raised their heads in shock, and their pupils widened.

It's raining in the sky!
