Chapter 699: The defeat is decided
What does a house leak happen to rain overnight? What happened to Shah Jahan and Dorgon was that the defeat was in fact doomed from the moment they attacked the British.
Dolgon did have the intention of leaving, and Shah Jahan did have the idea of dedicating Dolgon to Ye Xun, but these were just ideas in their heads, and it was uncertain when they would start to implement them.
And the fire of the red sleeves undoubtedly put everything on the table.
Shah Jahan, who received the news, couldn't help but burst into a rage, Dolgon, you kid is too unrighteous, right? Lao Tzu took you in and married your sister to you, you actually treat Lao Tzu like this, can't you honestly wait for me to calculate you?
In a fit of rage, Shah Jahan had no time to think about it, and he had to break it sooner or later anyway, so let it be as early as possible!
Command to assemble an army to surround and destroy Dolgon's men.
Dolgon really didn't want to fight, and after listening to the report from his subordinates, he immediately knew that it was the two masters who did it, but at this time, it was too late to understand what was going on.
Immediately ordered to gather men and horses to retreat, just like that, and if he lost some more, he would really have to die in the world.
The fire bought time for Dorgon, and by the time Shajahan's men entered Dorgon's camp, Dorgon and his men were gone.
After listening to the report, Sha Jahan also understood, but he had already torn his face, and he could only go all the way to the dark.
The unrest in Shah Jahan and Dorgon's camp had long been discovered by Bashik's men in the city.
After getting the report, Bashik took Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to the city, looking at the fire and shouting in the distance, the three of them couldn't help but look at each other, no one thought about what happened, it was too dark, and they couldn't go out to investigate, Shajahan and Dolgon were scheming, what if it was the plan of the two of them?
After discussing how to send someone to investigate at dawn, the three of them were about to go back to rest, when suddenly Arjuna's shout came from under the city...
Ye Xun had indeed entered the Mughal territory, but the army he brought was not 100,000, but 40,000.
The reason why this was done was to confuse the old man Sanghe and Lao Maozi.
The 100,000-strong army was divided in two while on the road, and the 60,000-strong army secretly returned to the direction of Tsahanhot, and when the time came, it would strike a fatal blow at the Cossack cavalry who had invaded the border.
Yes, it was indeed a fatal blow, this was Ye Xun's death order to Sun Chuanting.
The modern history of later generations told Ye Xun that Lao Maozi was a nation that bullied the weak and feared the hard, and if he didn't hurt him, he wouldn't have a long memory.
Because he had never fought with Lao Maozi, for the sake of insurance, the regular army of the Ming Dynasty around Chahanhot would exceed 120,000.
Da Yu'er can get Horqin the best, if it can't be done, this time even Horqin's tribal army will be cleaned up.
Relying on Ye Xun's relationship, Sanghe has annexed small tribes over the years, and now Horqin has become the largest tribe in the grassland, with more than one million tribes and more than 200,000 people with armor.
However, although Ye Xun acquiesced to the expansion of Horqin, and did not impose restrictions on them in terms of iron weapons and food, with the development of hot weapons, cold weapons have gradually been marginalized, so although there are many people and horses in Sanghe, there are still not many firearms, which is why Ye Xun has never taken Sanghe too seriously.
According to the secret report from Horqin, Sanghe's rebellion did not get the support of many clan elders, the herdsmen lived well, and the Ming Dynasty became stronger and stronger, who would want to fight!
Therefore, only his direct tribal army can be commanded, about 100,000, plus 50,000 Cossack cavalry, it is 150,000.
120,000 vs. 150,000, it sounds a bit hanging, but don't forget, the popularity of firearms in the Ming army is already the first in the world, and with hot weapons against cold weapons, Ye Xun feels that 120,000 is a bit much.
When Ye Xun's army arrived in Delhi, it had already been recaptured by Shah Jahan, but after a few cannons, the defenders surrendered directly.
The whole army was taken away by Sha Jahan, and thousands of remnants faced the Ming army that was pouring in like a tide, so they still had the courage to fight?
When Ye Xun entered this exotic city, the battle in the direction of Dhaka was also nearing the end.
Bashik and Shah Jahan shook hands and made peace, and then each sent his army to hunt down Dorgon.
There is no way to negotiate peace, Shah Jahan has many men and horses, but they all become infantry overnight, let alone attacking the city, and trying to escape has become a luxury.
It's not that Bashik doesn't want to destroy Shah Jahan in one go, but his strength doesn't allow it, so he can only agree to make peace with Shah Jahan against his will.
The medicine is under the red sleeves, and naturally knows how to solve it, and after knowing that the two sides have reached a settlement, they immediately have people send the antidote to Shah Jahan, and then let the two sides jointly start a hunt for Dolgon.
The poison in Dorgon's war horse is more serious than that of Shah Jahan's war horse, so it can't run far at all, and this is the territory of the Mughals, who are not familiar with the place, and they are soon blocked in a valley, although they have not yet taken it finally, but it is only a matter of time.
Ye Xun did not live in the Mughal palace, firstly, because he did not like the Mughal room decoration style, and also to avoid suspicion.
According to the secret report sent by the capital, Ye Xun knew that there was no need for Sha Jahan's envoy to specifically publicize it, and the impeachment of Ye Xun in the court began to increase again.
There are those who impeach Ye Xun for rebellion, and there are those who impeach Ye Xun for conspiracy to rebel and become self-reliant...
Ye Xun was not afraid of being impeached, but felt that there was no need to fight with the ministers over such a trivial matter.
Ye Xun's temporary residence was the mansion of a wealthy Mughal merchant, and he took the initiative to invite Ye Xun to live in.
In the future, the Mughal will also be an important logistics base, so Ye Xun does not mind building a good relationship with the Mughals.
At this time, it has entered November, and this year's Spring Festival is obviously impossible to rush back.
After reading the report sent by Bashik, Ye Xun directly ordered Bashik to come to Delhi with Shah Jahan to negotiate.
Since peace is spoken, there must be a peace statement, the Mughal is a country left to his son, and Ye Xun can't let it be too chaotic, so this Sha Jahan has to stay for a while.
The meeting took place at a farm outside Delhi, with 200 guards from each of the three sides, in fact, Ye Xun wanted to go alone, but he was afraid of scaring Sha Jahan, so he set the scale of 200 people.
However, Ye Xun did not express his position on how to deal with Dolgon, in Ye Xun's heart, he was already a dead man.
Those who abandon me, the people of yesterday cannot stay, it is not that Ye Xun is ruthless, but he does not want to add trouble to himself.
After finishing his business, Ye Xun ordered someone to call the rich businessman Limano in, Ah San's name was too long, and the call was tongue-twisting, Ye Xun only remembered that this rich businessman in his forties and with a pig-like body was called Limano.
Being called a wealthy merchant in the Mughal capital, it is obvious that this Limano is very wealthy, but Ye Xun didn't have the idea of fighting his family's property, Ye Xun just wanted to have a deeper understanding of the Mughals through him...
