Chapter 780: South Asia (4)

On the endless Delhi Plain, Li Yanzheng led the main force of the 2nd Cavalry Army to advance like a storm.

After learning that Zhu Cijiong had led the 4th Cavalry Division to go deep into the Mughal Empire's capital city of Delhi, Li Yan was really taken aback, and after reacting, he hurriedly summoned the main force of the 2nd Cavalry Army to rush to help.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Mughal army has a crushing advantage over the Mughal army, Li Yan has already learned from the Nepalese that the Mughal Empire is also a powerful empire, especially its population is even higher than that of the Ming Dynasty, and it is said that the population of the Mughal Empire is at least hundreds of millions.

In such a populous empire, Zhu Cijiong only led one division to go deep alone. Once the cavalry division led by Zhu Cijiong fell into a heavy siege, Li Yan couldn't think about the consequences.

Therefore, after receiving Zhu Cijiong's telegram, Li Yan left a cavalry brigade to garrison Kadu Mande, and then quickly reinforced it with the main force of the 2nd Cavalry Army and the newly incorporated Gurkha cavalry brigade.

The Gurkha cavalry brigade was organized with the Gurkha people as the main body. In the previous wars to exterminate the Marats, the Gurkhas showed extremely strong fighting power.

What particularly surprised Li Yan was that the Gurkha people showed an extraordinary identification with the Ming Dynasty, and the leader of the Gurkhas, Pritvi, even offered to bring his people as servants to assist the Ming army.

Naturally, Li Yan would not refuse such a request, and immediately incorporated it into the Gurkha Brigade. After marching to Delhi, because of the language, Li Yan even asked the Gurkha Brigade to be the forward.

And the Gurkha Brigade really lived up to Li Yan's expectations, and it was almost overwhelming along the way. From Katu Mande to Delhi, along the way, the Gurkha brigade opened the road in the mountains, built bridges in the water, and took the town passes guarded by the Mughal army directly, and the Ming army did not need to take action.

Well, it's not actually because the Gurkha brigade is strong. The main reason is that the Mughal prince Olenzebu took away almost the entire empire's regular army, and those who stayed behind in various princely states or city-states were improvised strong men, and the equipment was pitiful, and such a militia that was both untrained and unequipped naturally could not defeat the brave and well-equipped Gurkha cavalry brigade.

Although the progress is very smooth, Li Yan is still worried. Because the 4th Cavalry Division led by cavalry Zhu Cijiong suddenly lost contact.

This cannot but make people worry, is it the 4th Cavalry Division that has been attacked? Li Yan was worried, and more than a dozen horsemen suddenly came back from the front like a whirlwind.

When they got closer, they found that the leader was the commander of the Gurkha Brigade, Pritvy.

"General." Prithvi learned from the Ming army to salute Li Yan and saluted,

"Our Gurkha brigade has advanced to the outskirts of Delhi, but found the situation in Delhi somewhat strange." Prithvi does not speak the official language of the Ming Dynasty, of course, he speaks Tibetan.

Hearing about the translation, Li Yan's heart sank and asked, "What kind of strange method?" "I came to Delhi once ten years ago, and it was so crowded and lively, but now the gates of Delhi are wide open, and there is no one to be seen. ”

"The gates are open, but there is not a single figure to be seen?" Li Yan's face became even more difficult. It's bad, judging from this situation, most of Zhu Cijiong's 4th Cavalry Division has already had an accident.

At that moment, Li Yan couldn't hold his breath anymore, and led the main force of the 2nd Cavalry Army to start accelerating forward. Fortunately, there aren't many roads from here to Delhi, and all the way is an unsheltered open plain, so there is no need to worry about being ambushed.

Soon, Li Yan's department came to the outside of Delhi. I saw that the 4,000 cavalry of the Gurkha Brigade had already lined up in battle formation outside the east gate of Delhi.

But the east gate of Delhi in front of him was really open, and there was really no one inside or outside the city. However, the breeze sent a strong fishy smell, and it smelled like blood.

This made Li Yan even more anxious, it seemed that the 4th Cavalry Division had really suffered an accident. At that moment, Li Yan shouted with a dark face: "Prithvi, immediately send a cavalry company into the city......" Before the words fell, countless figures suddenly appeared on the city wall in front of him, and a group of cavalry surged out from the empty east gate of Delhi.

The officers and men of the 2nd Cavalry Army and the Gurkha Brigade were taken aback. When Li Yan was about to give the order to face the battle, he found that there were still troops rushing out of the city gate on the city wall, and they were all the Great Bright Sun and Moon Banners!

Sun and Moon Banner? Then, Li Yan saw Zhu Cijiong, who was rushing to the front. Seeing that the soldiers of the Gurkha Brigade had taken out their dog-legged knives, Li Yan hurriedly stopped.

After drinking the soldiers of the Gurkha Brigade, Li Yan led people to greet Zhu Cijiong again.

"Li Yan, why are you?" Zhu Cijiong laughed and said,

"I originally thought it was reinforcements from the Mughal Empire, and I was preparing to give them an empty plan."

"King Ding, it's good that you're okay." Li Yan breathed a long sigh of relief. Zhu Cijiong said in a sigh: "What can happen to me?" How can the Mughal native chicken and tile dog still get me? Li Yan said: "Although the Mughal native chicken and tile dogs are vulnerable, they can't stand the number of people, it is said that the population of the Mughal Empire is 150 million, more than the Ming Dynasty, so their army must not be a few million?" Zhu Cijiong said: "I don't know if there are millions, but more than one million are really there, and they have followed the crown prince of the Mughal Empire, Olunzebu, to Peshawar." ”

"A million?" Li Yan couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. This is not the number of troops that are divided into different places, but the mobile forces that are gathered together.

Zhu Cijiong laughed and said: "Thanks to the main force of the Mughal Empire following Olon Zebu to Peshawar, I have the opportunity to take the 4th Cavalry Division to take Delhi without blood, Li Yan, you don't know, when we hit outside the city of Delhi, these Mughals actually thought that we were the princely army that rushed to King Qin." While speaking, Zhu Cijiong took Li Yan and his party into the city.

After entering the city, Li Yan found that the streets and alleys of Delhi were full of corpses, and the smell of blood in the air was unbearable.

After hesitating, Li Yan still asked, "King Ding, have you slaughtered the entire city of Delhi?" ”

"That's not the case." Zhu Cijiong said as if he was fine,

"All the filthy and foul-smelling untouchables were killed, but those with light skin and no stench were killed, and the women were rewarded as concubines to the soldiers, and the men were castrated and sent back to the land to work as slaves." Li Yan took a closer look, only to find that the streets of Chen Corpse were basically dark brown skin pariahs.

Zhu Cijiong said: "I heard that in Hindu legends, it is because of the sins committed in the previous life that they will be reduced to a filthy and foul-smelling untouchable person in this life, and then spend a lifetime to atone for their sins, and after atoning for their sins in this life, they will be reincarnated in the next life to become a Brahmin or a Kshatriya high caste." ”

"So we're helping them by doing that."

"Let these untouchables complete the atonement of this life as soon as possible."

"When you are reincarnated, you can become a Brahmin or a Kshatriya." Speaking of this, Zhu Cijiong said again: "No, there will be no Brahmins or Kshatriyas in India in the future, but only the free people of the Ming Dynasty, and when these untouchables are reincarnated again, they can become the free people of the Ming Dynasty." Li Yan said in a low voice: "But have you thought about King Ding, the Mughal Empire has more than 100 million untouchables. "What Li Yan means is that you can't kill more than 100 million Shudras and Vaishya pariahs, right?

It's too hurtful.

"So what." Zhu Cijiong said with a murderous face,

"These filthy and foul-smelling pariahs, Lone looks upset, Lone is still the same sentence before, these pariah should not live in this world." Li Yan still wanted to fight for it, and then persuaded: "But the saint said that manpower is the most valuable resource. Li Yan moved out of Chongzhen's words, Zhu Cijiong didn't dare to refute it anymore, so he could only say with a dark face: "Okay, since Li Yan is so insistent, then it is still done according to the old rules, all the men are castrated regardless of the old and young, and the women are sterilized, and then sold to the mainland or various overseas dominions to do slave labor." After a pause, Zhu Cijiong said again: "Now, the students of medical school are busy. ”

"Dingwang Mingjian." Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief and said,

"There's no rush on this matter anyway." While the two were talking, they had already come to a splendid palace, this was really a splendid palace, the scale may not be as large as the Forbidden City, but the decoration was more magnificent.

I saw that the walls were covered with gold leaf, and the roofs were inlaid with various colored gemstones. The floor is also paved with gold bricks, and the main hall is filled with various treasures.

Then, Li Yan saw a lot of women kneeling in a large hall. The women in this hall are in stark contrast to the women on the street outside.

The women on the street outside are smelly and black, but the women here are fair-skinned, and they are all very beautiful, and they have an exotic style compared to the women of the Ming Dynasty.

"Li Yan, these are all the concubines and daughters of the Mughal emperor, you can pick a few." Speaking of this, Zhu Cijiong said with a smile: "The South Asian continent is really a deformed land, which can not only give birth to a dirty and smelly woman like the outside, but also give birth to such a stunning beauty inside the hall. While speaking, Zhu Cijiong stepped forward and hugged the two beauties in blue.

"Li Yan, you can pick and choose anything else, but these two are not good, these two are the daughters of the Mughal Emperor Sharjah Khan, and they are already my people." Li Yan was a little embarrassed.

"King Ding, I'll forget it, after all, I haven't made any military achievements." Zhu Cijiong waved his hand and said: "Hey, what kind of war merits are not war merits, according to the rules, those who see it have a share, so you just have to choose boldly, but you can only choose two." Hearing this, the generals behind Zhu Cijiong and Li Yan burst out laughing.

Because they all know very well that it should be their turn after Li Yan finishes picking.
