The Mughal infantry formation was divided into three formations: left, center and right. The middle army formation, which was under the most pressure, was the first to collapse.

In the face of the attack of the Ming army, these soldiers of the Mughal infantry army, those on both sides ran to the next military formation, and those who lined up in the back simply fled to the endless plain behind. As for those facing it head-on, they threw down their weapons and knelt down in surrender.

Seeing this, the Ming cavalry immediately crossed over to the enemy kneeling on the ground and pursued the fleeing foot soldiers, while shouting loudly in the only Mughal language they had learned: "Abandon your weapons and kneel on the ground, and those who surrender will not die!" ”

Although he was persuading him to surrender, his subordinates' movements were not ambiguous, as long as they did not lose their ordnance, they were still fleeing, waving their sabers, and easily harvesting the lives of these people.

Without a commander, once the momentum of defeat is formed, at this time, even if Shah Jahan comes, he will not be able to return to the sky.

Emperor Chongzhen had only 5,000 men and horses on his side, and the remaining 25,000 or so cavalry troops, including those Mughal recruits, were all scattered, driving the enemy like a flock of sheep.

The war that took place on this plain once again shaped the tide of war in the Mughal Empire.

The last time was the last Mughal emperor, their famous Akbar the Great, who fought to save the Mughal Empire.

The location of the battle was closer to Delhi, between the Sutrizh and Jumuna rivers. Originally, the Mughal Empire's army could not defeat the enemy, but just when the Mughal Empire's army was about to be defeated, several of the enemy's most important generals and monarchs were unexpectedly injured, which gave them a chance to turn defeat into victory.

And in this duel with the Ming army, it was the commander of the Mughal Empire who underestimated the enemy and greedy for merit, which eventually led to being captured by the Ming army and triggering the final defeat.

By the evening, the battle was over, and the Mughal soldiers who had abandoned their weapons and surrendered were all guarded with their hands tied, and more Ming soldiers were cleaning the battlefield and counting the battle.

It was only at this time that the "Da Ming Infantry Army" arrived. Many Mughal Empire soldiers saw that it was not the Ming army in red uniforms that appeared in the dust, but the ragged people, and they knew at a glance that they were those untouchables in the northwest of the Mughals, and they were all dumbfounded.

Another important reason for the collapse of nearly 100,000 Mughal Empire infantry troops was that they thought that in addition to the more than 30,000 Ming cavalry in front of them, there were also a large number of infantry troops coming.

Now they know that the original Ming army only has the cavalry in front of them, and many of these cavalry troops are just ordinary people. Suddenly, many unwilling people, especially those generals, felt like vomiting blood.

At night, the Ming army did not give food to the prisoners. The Mughal people who arrived were ordered to camp around the captives to rest. Throughout the perimeter, there are also Ming cavalry patrolling.

Today, the real Ming army is only about 20,000 people, but there are as many as 100,000 prisoners. This question was placed in front of the Ming monarchs.

Those who lead troops know that too much of this quantitative imbalance will bring many problems.

In this regard, Wu Sangui suggested to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, these 100,000 people are too many, not only is it a burden, but once our army fights the enemy again, if these people make trouble or rebel, it will also be fatal to our army." Therefore, the last general thinks that it is better to ......"

Speaking of this, he gestured with his hand and made a gesture of "kill".

He is going to learn from Bai Qipit Zhao Guo to surrender, not to mention, after Zhao Guo lost 400,000 young people, the national strength collapsed.

For Wu Sangui and them, this is in an enemy country and a foreign land, and there is no psychological burden if they choose to do this. Even Kong Youde nodded in agreement.

However, Emperor Chongzhen had his own plans, and when he heard this, he just shook his head and said: "The next battle is to join forces with the Dalantai Department sent by Gushi Khan to attack Delhi, and only the cavalry is not enough." The way of fighting must also be changed, and the capture of Mughal cities must begin. Therefore, I still have to use these infantry troops. As for faithfulness, there is no need to worry too much about that. ”

As for what he was going to do, he didn't say.

When Wu Sangui and the others heard this, they were a little curious, but they didn't ask much, they just followed the order.

In this night, how many prisoners were taken, with different thoughts, the Ming army just tied them up, and didn't give them food, and didn't say how to deal with them, after all, they were a little panicked or something. At night, it is normal for someone to make trouble.

However, of course, the Ming army will not relax its vigilance, and as soon as there is a riot, it will be suppressed immediately. If you use the method of continuous sitting, if someone makes trouble on a rope, you will all die, and you will not be merciless. In this way, I waited until dawn the next day.

Emperor Chongzhen slept until dawn, and after breakfast, he ordered the whole army to assemble, and gave a decree that Kong Youde should lead people and select all the officers of all levels among the captives.

Seeing this, these Mughal officers finally had a little more confidence.

At this time, they already knew that there were only so many people in the Ming army, and if they wanted to control so many infantry troops, they had to rely on them, persuade each other with good words, give promises of glory and wealth, buy and win them over, and let them die for the Ming country, so that the Ming army could drive these 100,000 infantry troops to serve them.

In this regard, many of them feel that it doesn't matter, whoever gives more glory and wealth will give their lives to whomever they want, and that's it!

Thinking like this, many officers were a little nervous. For the soldiers of the Ming army who escorted them to concentrate, especially those Mughal recruits, it was a bit of a posstry. Behave a little more modestly, let the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom know that they are not so easy to buy, so that the price can be a little higher!

After the concentration, when the Ming army was still counting whether there were any remaining officers who had not come out of the ranks, these officers standing there were all signaling with their eyes, don't be too soft, don't agree as soon as the Ming army says anything, if you really want that, you won't be able to sell it for any money.

Emperor Chongzhen glanced at these Mughal officers with no expression on his face. It was not until his soldiers came back to tell him that all the officers had been selected that Emperor Chongzhen spoke: "I promised yesterday that those who surrender will not die. However, last night, many people were unwilling to surrender and rebelled. If that's the case, you're welcome! ”

As soon as these words were translated, many people were suddenly frightened, could it be that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom was going to kill someone, right?

Just as they were thinking this, groups of Ming soldiers stepped forward, two against one, and pushed the officers to their knees. Needless to say, the meaning of this action seems to be to cut them.

At this moment, many officers were frightened. However, some officers believed that the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom was playing tricks and indulging them, first scaring them, and then giving them favors, so that they could be recovered at a very small price.

This time, though, they guessed wrong.

I saw that Emperor Chongzhen made another will, and then some Mughal recruits flew to convey the emperor's will: "Your Majesty has a will, who is willing to temporarily represent a hundred households, go out to sign up, and don't wait for it!" ”

Baihu is the head of the hundred-man team, which is similar in the Mughal army, because the Mughal Empire is the empire established by the Mongols.

Hearing this, those ordinary Mughal pawns couldn't help but be taken aback one by one, is this a pie falling from the sky?

Or because of this, some people are suspicious. If you go out to compete for an officer spot, what will happen to the original officers?

No matter what, after all, there are some quick-witted people who have a stroke of 100,000 strokes, and they don't hesitate to sign up first.

It's just a matter of time, and it's almost enough for the number of people.

Hearing Emperor Chongzhen's decree again, Wu Sangui and the others couldn't help but suddenly realize that the emperor used this army in this way!

To put it bluntly, it's actually very simple, find a reason to kill the original officer, but it's not the Ming army that does it themselves, but those who want to get ahead, give them a name, you can give them some trust and let them lead the army.

As for why not use the Mughal recruits, they are clearly more reliable in terms of loyalty. However, these Mughal recruits were just ordinary people before and did not know how to fight. Let them do chores, that's no problem, but if you want them to lead the infantry army and listen to the orders to fight, you will be blind.

And the temporary leaders who were promoted from the pawns, at least they knew some common sense of infantry warfare. Emperor Chongzhen did not require this infantry army to become an elite to use, as long as it could complete the general military orders.

Soon, those who wanted to be the temporary representatives of the hundred households were all gathered on the side of Emperor Chongzhen and knelt on the ground.

Emperor Chongzhen looked at them all with their heads bowed, and they didn't dare to come out, so he said in a majestic voice: "You are enterprising, I am very happy." As long as you make military achievements in the future, you will be able to remove the temporary generation, and even get a higher military position. I will destroy the Mughals, and your future is in your own hands. ”

At this point, he asked the interpreter to deliver the message first. Seeing the excited faces of these soldiers one by one, he said again: "Now, you wait to execute those who intend to rebel, and then you can assign your soldiers, and after the whole team is completed, you will join forces with the other army of the Ming Dynasty to besiege Delhi!" ”

These words of Emperor Chongzhen have a lot of information. However, these kneeling servants belong to the quick-minded ones, and they can hear all the meanings at once.

Vote for a name, no problem! If you don't kill the original officers, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them, the temporary ones, to sit in their positions!

Is there another Ming army? Think about it, the emperors of the Ming Kingdom are here, how can there be only such a few people? Destroy the Mughals, and the glory and wealth are just around the corner!

Thinking like this, they all showed gratitude one by one, and killed the original officers without mercy.
