Chapter 695: The Fall of the Persian Empire (1)
Isfahan City, at the gate of the largest mosque, Ao Bai led a force of thousands of people to chase down the Persian rout.
"Poof! Burst! Poof"
Not only the Persian army was defeated, but also some ordinary Persians who had taken refuge here and asked for the protection of the mosque.
A round of arrows came at the "Xiu Xiu Xiu", and more than 20 Persian people fell to the ground in response.
Immediately afterward, Man Baqi rushed over, just to kill the two Persian soldiers who had blended into this group of Persian people.
The bloody steel knives continued to fall, and human heads were chopped off, blood splattered, causing screams of fear.
"Allah protect!"
"Allah protect!"
A large number of Persians knelt down at the door of the mosque and shouted, and even the two Persian soldiers who were mixed with the crowd knelt at the door of the mosque in horror and shouted inside, hoping that the elders of the mosque would come out to stop them.
The sound of horses' hooves was clearly visible, and Ao Bai and several soldiers of the Eight Banners quickly swept by, trying to kill the two Persian soldiers.
Seeing that the steel knife was about to slash at the bodies of the two Persian routs, an elder suddenly walked out of the door of the mosque.
"At the door of Halal, do not kill!" The mosque elder rushed to kill Ao Bai and several soldiers with eight banners and rebuked angrily.
Mosques are sacred places and killing is not allowed, and if the Manchus are really believers in Allah, they must abide by this rule.
However, poof! Burst! With two sounds, the heads of the two Persian routs still flew, a large amount of blood spurted, and the headless corpses fell to the ground.
"You barbaric demons, even killing at the door of the halal, Allah will definitely punish you" The halal elder turned blue with anger, pointing at the soldiers who were full of eight banners and scolded.
Some Manchurian soldiers were furious, although they couldn't understand what the halal elder was shouting, but it was not difficult to guess that the halal elder was scolding them, and immediately angrily bent their bows and arrows from a distance of more than 20 meters, preparing to shoot the arrogant halal elder to death with an arrow.
The halal elder insisted, and the words he didn't finish scolding instantly held back, and his eyes widened in horror.
"Slow!" Fortunately, Ao Bai stopped it in time, and the arrow did not shoot in the end.
The other soldiers of the Eight Banners may not have heard the words of this halal elder, but Ao Bai could understand them. Two years ago, in order to better rule the Persian Empire, Dolgon had ordered the generals of the Eight Banners to learn some Persian, and Ao Bai happened to learn some of them, although it was impossible to speak fluently, but he could understand most of them.
Moreover, Ao Bai knew very well that this person in front of him was an elder of the largest mosque in Isfahan, and before attacking Isfahan, Dolgon had ordered them not to provoke the mosque as much as possible, and Ao Bai knew Dolgon's strategy, and also did not hesitate to obey Dolgon's orders, so in the end, the halal elder escaped.
"Let's go!" Ao Bai left here with the soldiers of the Eight Banners, leaving behind only dozens of corpses of the Halal Elder with a blue face.
After Ao Bai waited for the Eight Banners cavalry to leave, several elders gathered in the mosque.
"Now that the Manchus have invaded Isfahan, the empire is about to fall, a new empire will be established, and our mosque must be ready to assist the new empire in ruling this land of Allah!" The most highly respected Halal Grand Elder said calmly.
Several other halal elders nodded, originally abandoning the Persian emperor and the Persian Empire was in their consideration, as long as the Manchus were also the people of Allah, it would not make much difference to them if they were ruled by the Manchus or the Persian royal family.
However, the elder who was almost shot dead at the gate of the mosque just now said angrily: "I object, those Manchus are basically a group of barbarians, and they dared to kill at the gate of the mosque just now, which simply angered Allah, and they are extremely disrespectful to Allah, and they are unforgivable, how can they be worthy of being the kings appointed by Allah to rule over the people of Allah on the earth." ”
"No, no, wrong, although the Manchus are barbaric, but they have only converted to Allah for two years, and many of the rules set by Allah they still do not understand, our mosque can educate them in the future, and eventually they will be qualified kings." The most respected halal elder said firmly.
The other halal elders nodded in agreement again, and the halal elder saw that he was the only one who opposed this, and the great elder insisted, he couldn't change anything he said, and then stopped talking with a dark face.
Several halal elders eventually established Manchu dominance in Persia.
Next, they waited for the Manchus to finally enter the Persian palace and replace the Persian emperor.
Outside the Persian palace, 200,000 Qing legions besieged it, and began a full-scale attack after Dolgon's order.
"Dadada"
A fast horse suddenly came to Dorgon.
"Newspaper"
"Qi Qi Regent, the urgent military situation in western Persia, the Ottoman Empire's 180,000 troops entered Persia two days ago to attack the city, and have occupied a large part of the territory of Persia!"
From the beginning of the planning of the Persian Empire, Dolgon developed a large number of spies in Persia in a few years, covering almost every Persian city, so the news of the Ottoman army entering the Persian siege and plundering the city reached Dolgon's ears as soon as possible.
In fact, there were also Persians who came to the imperial capital from the west, ready to report the news to the Persian emperor, but unfortunately, Isfahan was all controlled by the Manchus except for the imperial palace, and those Persian messengers who came from the west were intercepted and killed by the Qing army scouts before they entered Isfahan.
The corners of Dolgon's eyes jumped suddenly, and his face turned cold: "It's really good, the Ottoman Empire took advantage of the fire to loot and reap the benefits of fishermen!" ”
Dolgon was furious, they worked hard to fight with the Persian Empire in order to finally annex the Persian Empire, but they had just invaded Isfahan, and the Persian Empire had not really been destroyed, and the Ottomans had first captured a large number of Persian territories, how could Dolgon not be angry!
"Order the whole army to attack the Persian palace immediately, and capture the Persian emperor alive, and reward five hundred taels of silver!" At this time, the Persian emperor seemed to be less valuable, only worth five hundred taels of silver.
"Killed" 200,000 Qing troops and began to attack the Persian Empire from all sides.
Time waits for no one, Dolgon doesn't want to destroy the Persian Empire by himself, as a result, most of the territory of Persia was occupied by the Ottomans, so he wants to destroy the Persian Empire as soon as possible, and then go to the west of Persia to fight with the Ottomans, in any case, since the Persian Empire is destroyed by the Qing Dynasty, then all the territory of the Persian Empire is the Qing Dynasty, and anyone who wants to get involved must pay the price of blood!
