Chapter 1069: The Mughal Empire Falls

"Destroy the Mughal Empire?" Lieutenant General Zhou Hao, commander of the 7th Army of the Imperial Army, was taken aback at first, but then nodded and said, "That's right, such a thing really can't be done by us. It is undoubtedly much safer for the Afghans to intervene. In the future, even if there is a problem, it can all be blamed on the heads of the Afghans! ”

"Yes, Afghans, this time we have to bear the blame!" Colonel Niu Zhiyang said with a smile. This is also a condition for the Empire to help Prince Akbar in the coup d'état! As a lackey of the empire, at a critical moment, he has to bear the blame for the empire.

"But will the Afghans agree? In addition, the Mughal royal family has a huge wealth, and if the Afghans do it and they take it for themselves, what should we do? "Lieutenant General Zheng Benqing, chief of staff of the 7th Army, was a little worried. After all, the wealth of the Mughal royal family is something that the empire must get.

"The Afghans will not refuse, Prince Akbar is a smart man, he knows what to choose. Also, as for the wealth of the Mughal royal family, there is no need to worry at all. We can just let Prince Akbar take a few people on a mission. After that, it's a big deal to do another body search. Of course, if the loss of wealth is not much, then forget it. Colonel Niu Zhiyang said. After all, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and Afghanistan has to give them a little sweetness if they put such a black pot on the back of the empire. The wealth of the Mughal royal family is staggering, and even a little given to the Afghans is nothing.

"Well, well, Colonel. Tomorrow we will surround Delhi, and when the time comes, Prince Akbar's men will be the first to enter the city! Lieutenant General Zhou Hao said.

Colonel Niu Zhiyang nodded. Although, the Chinese Empire and the royal family of the Mughal Empire signed a treaty. However, now it is clear that the Chinese Empire is not going to abide by the contract. Treaties signed by the empire with the princely states of India. Obviously more affluent. Although the empire could not really rule India, the annual military expenditure of 800 million Chinese dollars was not a lot. Under the long stream, the military development of the empire for a long time can be supported.

If this matter spreads, it will inevitably have an impact on the image of the empire. Therefore, the empire can only rely on external forces. Since the Afghans are the lackeys of the empire, it is up to them to take action. Undoubtedly very suitable. After Colonel Niu Zhiyang left the headquarters of the army group, he went to the command of the Afghans.

After the successful coup d'état, Prince Akbar has not yet become the emir of Afghanistan, but he is already the de facto ruler of the kingdom of Afghanistan. The empire had promised him to support him as the emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan after the end of the war in India. In addition, the empire will support him with a number of weapons and equipment, which will significantly increase the military strength of the Kingdom of Afghanistan. Wait until the empire has its hands freed. It was time for the Kingdom of Afghanistan to expand into the Muslim world.

Prince Akbar led 200,000 Afghan troops to assist the Imperial Army in its attack on India, which alleviated the lack of strength of the Imperial Army. Although the combat power of the Afghans is not strong, at least it is no worse than the Indian Ahsan. When dealing with Indian civilians. It is also a very good hand. In addition, when these Afghan troops march, they will inevitably desert. It is common to rob some of the rich among Indians and so on. In their opinion. It's all about driving the power of the victors.

The kingdom of Afghanistan was already very poor, far from being comparable to the rich India. It's just a robbery during this time. It made the entire Afghan army happy. Of course, most of them belonged to Prince Akbar, which further increased Prince Akbar's influence in the army. Now in the Afghan army, no one cares about Dost. Muhammad Khan is gone, and they only have in their hearts the prince Akbar who brought them victory and wealth, and the future Akbar Khan!

"General Niu, why do you have time to come to me today, is it to launch an attack on Delhi?" Seeing Colonel Niu Zhiyang coming, Prince Akbar hurriedly greeted him. Although he was about to become the emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, he was still very respectful in front of Colonel Niu Zhiyang. After all, although Niu Zhiyang's military rank is not high, it can definitely determine his life and death.

"Your Royal Highness, I came to you today to discuss important matters with you!" Colonel Niu Zhiyang said solemnly.

Prince Akbar nodded, and hurriedly retreated: "General Niu, if there is anything you need me to serve, please command!" ”

"Your Royal Highness, tomorrow we will attack Delhi, and when the time comes, your troops will enter Delhi first!" Colonel Niu Zhiyang said.

Prince Akbar is not a fool either, and countless thoughts have already turned through his head. Could it be that the Chinese are trying to let his troops be cannon fodder? However, Delhi's defenses were not strong, and there were only a few Anglo-Indian troops in it, so there was not much morale at all. Even without the participation of the Imperial Chinese Army, the army of the Kingdom of Afghanistan alone would have easily stormed Delhi. Besides, Delhi is the capital of the Mughal Empire, and it is very wealthy, and there are many dignitaries and dignitaries in it. The royal family of the Mughal Empire, in particular, amassed great wealth. Although attacking the city of Delhi first, it will pay a certain loss. However, if Delhi can be robbed, then these losses are completely negligible.

"General Niu, there is no problem at all, tomorrow my army will attack Delhi first!" Prince Akbar patted his chest and reassured.

"Your Royal Highness, when your army enters the city, there is something you need to do!" Colonel Niu Zhiyang continued.

"General Niu, please!" Prince Akbar hurriedly said, he knew that things must not be so simple.

"After your army enters the city, it will go straight to the palace of the Mughal Empire, and the other areas will be captured by the Imperial Army one by one without your army. Once you've stormed the palace, your army must kill all the royal family members of the Mughal Empire, young and old, and leave not a single one behind. If you get away with one, then the empire will be the only one who asks! Colonel Niu Zhiyang said with a stern face.

"Yes, General Niu!" Prince Akbar also sensed the severity of the matter and hurriedly agreed. He knew that this was something that the Chinese Empire had ordered to be done. Otherwise, the Chinese Empire will punish him.

"When the time comes, our artillery will open the passage into Delhi for you. You only need to bring a small number of henchmen into the city. As for the wealth in the palace, you can take a small share as a reward for completing the mission this time, and the rest will be the spoils of the empire. In addition, this matter must not be leaked. Even if there is relevant news from the outside world, the Kingdom of Afghanistan must come forward to admit it as soon as possible, this is your doing, and it has nothing to do with the empire! Colonel Niu Zhiyang advised.

Prince Akbar nodded, he completely understood, this is the Chinese Empire trying to make the Kingdom of Afghanistan bear the black pot! However, Prince Akbar didn't think there was anything bad about it. As a lackey of the Chinese Empire, this is what he should have done! What's more, there are rewards to take, so why not?

"Don't worry, General Niu, we'll definitely do it!" Prince Akbar patted his chest and reassured.

"Well, that's for the best. Don't worry, do things for the empire, and the empire will definitely not treat you badly! Colonel Niu Zhiyang changed his face and said with a smile.

After Colonel Niu Zhiyang left, Prince Akbar immediately recruited his henchmen. He knew that it was best carried out by his absolute henchmen. Therefore, those who are gathered together are old men who follow him. There aren't many of these people, but they can all be trusted.

The next day, the Imperial Army launched an offensive on Delhi, and the heavy artillery bombardment of the Imperial Army soon destroyed the Anglo-Indian defenses. The commander of the Anglo-Indian army stationed in Delhi fled with his troops. The Imperial Army took advantage of the situation to encircle Delhi.

With the support of the Imperial Army, Prince Akbar led the elite troops of the Kingdom of Afghanistan of 5,000 men and attacked Delhi as soon as possible. Once in Delhi, the Afghans changed their way and headed straight to the royal palace of the Mughal Empire.

Soon, they arrived at the royal palace of the Mughal Empire. The palace is guarded by the Mughal Empire's guards. However, there are not many people, only a few hundred.

The Afghan army immediately launched an attack on the Mughal palace, and the palace guards could not resist it at all.

Emperor of the Mughal Empire, Bahadur. Shah II and Mirza. Prince Dala was shocked, they were allies of the Chinese Empire! How could these armies of the Kingdom of Afghanistan attack them?

Immediately, the two realized that this was the Chinese Empire that wanted to tear up the contract! And to destroy them in one fell swoop. But even if you understand it, it's useless. The army of the Kingdom of Afghanistan has already fought in front of them, and even if they want to escape, it is impossible.

The army that invaded the Mughal palace was killed on sight, whether it was men, women, or children.

"Attack, can't you let go of a single one, kill everyone!" Prince Akbar gave the order with a hideous face.

The entire palace soon became a river of blood. The royal children of the Mughal Empire in the palace were all killed. Including the last emperor Bahadur. Shah II and Crown Prince Mirza. None survived, including Dara. In the process of killing, it is often accompanied by robbery and rape, and the Mughal Empire, which has ruled India for hundreds of years, is thus destroyed!
