865 Defeat of the king

Thinking of the consequences of Shah Jahan's escape, Odom could no longer care whether it stinks or not, and hurriedly ran over to see.

Just running to the door, he saw that in the room, Shah Jahan was leaning against the wall, hanging his head and not moving. The blood that flowed from his hands had flowed all over the ground and had coagulated.

The most striking thing is that on the wall where Shah Jahan is leaning against the wall, there are big blood-colored characters written on it, and it is obvious that Shah Jahan wrote it with his blood: "Killing the king and killing the father will not be a good death!" ”

Seeing this situation clearly, Odom breathed a sigh of relief, and it was good that he didn't run away.

But after coming to his senses, he became angry again, angrily scolding the guards, why didn't he look good? Shah Jahan is going to die, and it should be arranged by him, and it should be decided by him!

He was furious, when suddenly he heard the sound of commotion and the sound of horses' hooves. Then, someone shouted in panic: "The Ming army has entered the city, and the Ming army has attacked......"

Upon hearing this, Odom was shocked, why did the Ming army attack so quickly?

He hurriedly ran a few steps and found a place with a clear view to see the situation. Sure enough, in the distance, a group of Ming cavalry was killing in, and they still rushed over this side.

Suddenly, as if he had been pricked in the buttocks, Odom jumped to his feet and ran in a hurry, and at the same time ordered his men to burn the building down.

He didn't dare to stay here and watch any longer, if he ran slowly and was blocked in the city by the Ming army, it would be ironclad, because he belonged to the kind that was going to be liquidated.

There was one thing that Odom hadn't thought of. He fled in panic, and of course the guards were also panicked, and they were also afraid of being blocked by the Ming army. Hearing the rumbling of horses' hooves coming this way, the guards were also bent on fleeing.

As a result, the errand of burning the building, you pushed me, I pushed you, and finally because the Ming cavalry was approaching, they dispersed in a hurry.

It is also strange to say that in this Ming cavalry army, there are many Mughal cavalry soldiers, they are very familiar with this place, and after attacking this place, they did not continue to kill, but immediately blocked this place, and then launched a search.

When those guards fled, there were Ming army cavalry guards who saw it, so the Ming army quickly followed the trail to the building, searched the second floor, and then saw a scene in the room.

The general of the Ming army who led this cavalry army was the new deputy general Li Laiheng. After hearing the report and going upstairs, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this scene, and hurriedly confirmed: "This person is Shah Jahan?" ”

That's right, he was ordered by Emperor Chongzhen to go straight to this side to find Shah Jahan.

When a Mughal soldier beside him heard this, he hurriedly said, "The last general has met him twice before, and it is indeed him." Also, the words on this are killing the king and killing the father, and it is not good to die! You can't go wrong! ”

Hearing this, Li Laiheng looked at the pile of feces and urine in this room, and looked at Shah Jahan's accusation, he couldn't help but scold the vicious Aurangzeb, which was too unbearable.

In fact, in the original history, after Aurangzeb seized the throne of emperor and killed his brother to force Shah Jahan, he had a reputation for cruelty and suspicion.

"Watch this place, don't move anything!" Li Laiheng gave the military order, and then led most of the army and began to continue to attack the rest of the city.

……………………

About an hour or so, Delhi fell into the hands of Da Ming again. The reason why it was so fast was because the Mughal army did not have the heart to die at all.

After Emperor Chongzhen received Li Laiheng's message, he arranged for the Mughal soldiers to take turns to watch the fate of Shah Jahan, and then even the local soldiers of the Ming Dynasty went to see it.

In doing so, it is clear to everyone that Aurangzeb must die and the Mughal Empire must be destroyed.

The murder of kings and fathers, even if the royal family of the Mughal Empire has a "glorious" tradition, is condemned by everyone after all. What's more, who can stand being treated like this by his son, who can stand the identity of Shah Jahan's Great Khan who has removed his identity as a Great Khan, and is treated like this by his son?

During the period when Emperor Chongzhen then ordered to rest in Delhi, the morale of the army obviously rose to a new level, offsetting the decline in morale caused by the exhaustion of continuous marching battles. It even brought about an unexpected change, that is, the movement of the army to ask for battle to pursue the enemy was very large. Among these soldiers who asked for battle, the Ming Dynasty and the Mughal were about the same, and the proportion of the number was basically the same.

It can be seen from this that Aurangzeb's atrocities can be regarded as arousing the public indignation of mankind!

Although Aurangzeb didn't expect this, he didn't care about it at this time.

After all, the most important thing for him at this time was to defeat the Ming army and reorganize the Mughal Empire. It can provoke the Ming army to pursue, that is the best. As for reputation, as long as he masters the Mughal Empire, who else dares to make irresponsible remarks about the so-called success or defeat of the king?

However, to his great surprise, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom did not take advantage of the opportunity of the big victory to chase after him fiercely.

Aurangzeb wondered: Does the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom want to destroy himself, but to give himself a chance to breathe, repack the army and fight again? It stands to reason that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is not a person who can fight, and he shouldn't make such a mistake, right? The best countermeasure is to wipe yourself out in one go, so that the Ming army will be comfortable, right?

Under normal circumstances, Aurangzeb was the happiest, but he had a chance to regroup his troops and fight again. However, the key thing is that he now wants to lead the Ming army to the preset ambush point and kill the Ming army with Abbas II! This Ming army is not chasing, seeing that it is about to arrive, is it possible to give up all the previous efforts?

Just about to kick the door, the result is stuck here, thinking about how much effort he spent and how many soldiers and horses he lost in order to lure the Ming army westward, but the Ming army was on the last bit of the road, but did not pursue, hiding in Delhi and never moving, is this going to anger people?

Thanks to Aurangzeb's youth, strength and health, and the fact that this situation was not sudden, but a process of mental preparation, otherwise, he might have vomited blood in anger.

Sometimes, he didn't expect that the news that he and Abbas II were uniting and preparing to ambush the Ming army was known to the Ming Emperor?

But if this is the case, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will definitely not know where to ambush, because only a few people know the ambush point, and it is absolutely impossible for these people to tell the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, and they will not have that opportunity.

Then, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will not keep chasing and beating himself, he will definitely have some scruples, and there is no reason to stop suddenly after arriving in Delhi! Aurangzeb really can't figure it out!

……………………

Abbas II, for his part, also received a message from Tanma that Aurangzeb's army had appeared west of Delhi. According to the plan, it was almost to the ambush site. Abbas II had already waited anxiously, after all, he was worried about the wolf of the Ottoman Empire, so he immediately began to enter an ambush state, waiting for Aurangzeb to lure the Ming army over.

As a result, he did the same, left and waited, without waiting for Aurangzeb to advance westward; Waiting on the right, still not waiting for Aurangzeb to advance west. What's going on?

Abbas II was a little puzzled, so he sent someone to find Aurangzeb to ask about the situation, and after getting a reply, he was suddenly a little stupid, so is there something wrong with the Ming Emperor's brain? Why not take advantage of the opportunity of the big victory to destroy Aurangzeb in one go, do you still want to keep him to grow stronger, and then the counterattack will not be successful?

I can't understand it! Abbas II couldn't understand the Ming Emperor anymore. Although he also thought about it, would the opportunity for him and Aurangzeb be known to the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom?

However, no matter how he thought about it, there was no such possibility. Judging from the information reported by Aurangzeb, there is no evidence of this. So what's going on?

If the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom doesn't come, what if he leads the army back? Or do you want to think of a way with Aurangzeb and take this opportunity to solve the crazy emperor of the Ming Kingdom?

To be honest, Abbas II was a little hesitant.

His reaction was somewhat guessed by Aurangzeb. The situation has developed to this point, and Aurangzebuna must not want Abbas II to turn back. With his own current strength, he may not be the opponent of the Ming army.

When he was thinking about what to do, he suddenly sent news from Tanma, explaining that the emperor seemed to be unaccustomed to the soil or something, and was sick.

As soon as he heard the news, Aurangzeb suddenly realized. No wonder, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom is obviously a good fighter in war, how can he not know the truth of eliminating the opponent in one go, it turns out that he can't chase after him because he is sick!

As soon as his eyes rolled, Aurangzeb had an idea, and immediately sent Odom to Abbas II, informing him of the Ming Emperor's illness, and asking the two armies to besiege Delhi and annihilate the Ming Emperor's troops in Delhi!

Aurangzeb also asked Odom to emphasize that this was a godsend, so that the Ming Emperor had no possibility of escaping, and could solve the Ming threat once and for all.

Abbas II agreed. The reason why he finally chose to cooperate with Aurangzeb was mainly because he was afraid of the Ming Emperor who was like a madman. If the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom can be solved, it will be the best.

It is foreseeable that as long as the emperor of the Ming Kingdom dies here, there will be civil strife in the Ming Kingdom, and it will be difficult to say whether the new emperor who succeeds to the throne has the ability and the courage to go on an expedition. From this point of view, it really means that there is a war to decide.

As long as this trouble is solved and the army is led back, the Safavid Dynasty has expanded its territory so much, and it has gained a lot of prosperous areas, and the national strength will be great, and in the future, it will be the hegemon of the Middle East!

With this in mind, Abbas II finally decided to agree to Aurangzeb's proposal to lead the army eastward and join forces with Aurangzeb's troops to attack Delhi.

In early November of the 26th year of Chongzhen, the combined forces of the Persian Empire and the Mughal Empire, totaling about 250,000 troops, besieged Delhi, which was occupied by about 100,000 Ming troops.

The decisive battle that laid the foundation for the ups and downs of the South Asian subcontinent was unveiled.
