Chapter 269: A dignified positional battle
When new military intelligence came about the Delhi area, the king of the country of Marbury began to be frightened and could not speak...... The ambassador of the Confederate Empire had a good time to reassure him and ensure the safety of the entire country of Marbury before he felt better.
Yes, the Federal Empire has an inseparable interest in the Marbury State!
The Sultan of Delhi has sent 30,000 elite cavalry and 50,000 infantry and his army of 500 war elephants!
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin and Major Du glanced at each other after knowing the information, and smiled, okay, the more people come, the better......
President Wu Dapeng was stunned for a moment, are they Turkic people crazy?!
Sending so many troops at one time is not in line with the internal combat history of the Tianzhu region!!
The civil wars in the Tianzhu area are often no more than 10,000 fights, so the number of times 80,000 people are dispatched at once is very rare...... But he quickly figured it out, damn it, the emergence of the Federal Empire had weakened the power of the Tartar bandits, allowing them to relieve the pressure and run against us with all their might!
What he didn't know, of course, was that the bustling city of Marbury's new business district had become a myth...... Some businessmen in the Delhi area also boast of the new industry district that it is a place where gold can be picked up at your fingertips!
Well, the rules of the war are beginning to expand, and the Federation Emperor ** team must attack with all their might!
At that time, Chairman Wu Dapeng immediately began a secret conversation with the young ambassador of the Federal Empire.
President Wu Dapeng said, "We want to take advantage of the religious issue of the Delhi Sultan...... Do you have any brahmins who can obey our arrangement? ”
The ambassador smiled and said, "Yes...... And more than one person......"
The Tianzhu cult was to strictly adhere to the caste system, and the first-class Brahmins, mainly the monks and aristocracy, had the privilege of interpreting religious scriptures and worshipping the gods.
They also enjoyed supreme authority and enjoyed the various tributes of the worshippers of the temple...... He was also responsible for managing the temple's estates.
Tianzhu has never prescribed a uniform liturgy that is equivalent to Christianity or Judaism.
Devout Tianzhu followers could recite the prescribed prayers every day in front of the rudimentary altar that every Tianzhu family had in place, and they could frequently go to one of the temples in the southern part of Tianzhu that were tended by people called priests to pray or donate food, flowers, and various wealth.
However, there are no fixed rituals in the temple, no fixed priesthood or clergy, and no special religious holidays such as Christian Sunday, Jewish Sabbath, or Friday.
In their religious ceremonies, those who served as full-time clerks and reciters of the Vedas and narrative poems, mainly written in Sanskrit, were members of the highest Brahmin caste, and they were also the sole performers of funerals, weddings, coming-of-age ceremonies, and prayers to God on behalf of others.
These are undoubtedly the functions of the priesthood, but they do not require the executor to be an intermediary between the laity and the gods.
From this point of view, members of the Brahmin caste are undoubtedly noble and can enjoy the best life.
However, after the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate, the Brahmins in the northern region of Tianzhu were devastated, their temples were destroyed, and their wealth was deprived...... Many of them were forced to flee to the southern part of the Tianzhu region, and this mass exodus only increased the spread of the Tianzhu religion.
Too many people of the northern Brahmin caste miss their privileged life in the north...... In real history, the north of the Tianzhu region is the place where the real wealth is held...... The tycoons and wealthy gentry there were most fond of offering the purest things in the world, such as gold and silver, to the temple!
The young ambassador knew this, so he made some business dealings, or by virtue of his relationship with the king of the kingdom of Marbury, with a number of Brahmin castes, especially those who had fled from the north...... Some of them have been forced to stay in the South for generations.
The young ambassador was very smart, and he immediately understood what Chairman Wu Dapeng was thinking.
President Wu Dapeng needs some high-caste Brahmin people to go back to the north to stir up the faithful people...... Only by messing up the opponent's base can it be easier for the troops of the Federal Empire to intervene.
The young ambassador didn't use much effort to pick out a group of people of the former northern Brahmin high caste...... He did not try to persuade them, nor did he lure them, and those people were middle-aged and elderly people who volunteered to go to the northern region to influence the original people.
Those people also knew that the Sultan of Delhi was about to be killed, and that King Marbury was about to lead a large army to meet him...... If they lose, they have no way to escape unless they surrender.
If you can go to the northern region to mobilize the people, or there may be a chance to return the Tianzhu Sect again!
When Chairman Wu Dapeng learned of the resolute decision of those people, he immediately arranged for the Imperial Navy to use flying scissor communication ships to go north along the west coast of the Tianzhu Continent and quickly drop them into the northern region.
President Wu Dapeng has great expectations for them...... Religion is also a powerful supporting force now.
The young ambassador asked if he needed to put in more Buddhists.
Chairman Wu Dapeng refused without thinking about it.
In fact, the Tianzhu region has never been a "Buddhist country" in the true sense of the word, but Buddhism is a world religion.
Tianzhu Religion has always been dominant in the Tianzhu region, but it is not a world religion, it is a local religion.
Even in the time of Ashoka, when Buddhism flourished, the number of followers of Buddhism did not exceed one-fifth of the total population...... So the Tianzhu religion was absolutely dominant until the advent of the Delhi Sultanate.
Buddhism and Tianzhu are fundamentally contrary to each other in a philosophical sense, so there have been constant conflicts between the two religions from history to the present...... Now is not the time for Buddhism to return.
Chairman Wu Dapeng carefully looked at the dozens of photos sent by Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin...... Those were pictures of their preset battlefields.
Although the southern part of the Tianzhu region is a plateau area, it is mostly about a kilometer, and most of the terrain is flat, which is conducive to farming.
Because of its large-scale basalt eruption in ancient times, the fertile black soil formed by weathering is suitable for growing cotton, and it is a cotton production area that Chairman Wu Dapeng is fully operating.
The whole plateau is located in low latitude, belongs to the typical continental monsoon climate, except for a few coastal places on the east and west sides of the rainfall is more abundant, the plateau interior is high temperature and little rain, lack of tall and dense forests, and shrubs and tall grasses are the mainstay, showing a tropical savannah landscape.
This is exactly what the photograph shows.
Chairman Wu Dapeng asked Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin: "Why do you want to set up a formation in the plain shrub area, can't you find places like the pass and the narrow valley?" ”
Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin smiled bitterly, I really can't find ...... The terrain of the entire southern plateau is basically the same as the topography, which is a large platform with a relatively gentle ...... It is true that there are some dangers, however, no one will go from there, as it can be avoided without having to take a long detour.
There is no place to find a place where a husband is a pass, and no one can open it.
President Wu Dapeng could only acquiesce, if it were not for such a good terrain, in the history of the world, the British would not easily conquer the whole of India.
This will be a dignified positional battle, and the opponent has elite cavalry...... Such terrain is simply not capable of ambushing opponents.
But Lieutenant Colonel Wang Xuanbin was very confident and said, "Please rest assured, President Wu, our Imperial Army has sent four battalions to fight together!" ”
