Chapter 827: Chronicles of the Nations

Daming Hongwu for five years.

Dhaka.

Of course, the city is no longer called that name, and it has had a new name since the first Chu troops landed two years ago and crushed the Bengali war elephants with artillery, occupying the capital of the Bengali Sultanate, which had only been in existence for thirty years......

Gusu.

In other words, this can be regarded as the special feelings of the king of Chu.

At this time, the original heretical buildings here have been basically demolished, and the imitation of Chinese-style city construction is building a new city with a circumference of thirty-six miles, which is also divided into two cities, the outer city is inhabited by the people, and the inner city is inhabited by the people, the latter is the immigrants who came with the king of Chu. However, the inner city wall is different from the low outer city, which is actually only equivalent to the sheep and horse wall, but a fortress with a diameter of three miles and nine edges and corners, and the center of the fortress is the palace of the king of Chu, and His Royal Highness the king of Chu and his family, who are gradually conquering this land, live there in the worship of the subjects of the outer city.

According to the explanation of the Hindu elders who were coerced and seduced by the king of Chu, these conquerors from the east were actually Kshatriyas, and the Taoist priests who came with them were Brahmins, and the god Haotian they believed in was equivalent to Brahma.

The people suddenly realized.

In the same way, they gave up the idea of resisting.

Since people are of the upper caste, then as a lower caste, they rebel against a fart.

In addition, according to the explanations of these elders, these Kshatriyas from the east actually came to save them on behalf of the gods, and the Turks who originally conquered this land were actually the minions of the demon Raja, and their rule over this land caused the wrath of Shiva and other gods. Therefore, in fact, Shiva and other gods with different names from the same god as those gods of the Chu people specially sent a god to lead the Kshatriya expedition in the east to the west to save the people from the rule of demons, so not only Bengal, but also the entire Delhi Sultanate will be completely purified in the future, just like the demon minions in the city after the Chu army landed, and took them to purify the city.

That's perfect.

Now the king of Chu has begun to have a servant army.

Those Asan men are just like the original history they followed the British lord and fought in the whole east to follow the Chu army, along the Ganges River and the Brahmaputra River to fight those demon minions, just got the news that the 50,000 army, including the Chu army and the servant army of two brigades, is besieging Murshidabad, of course, it is not called this name at this time, and taking it means that the entire Ganges Delta has become the pocket of the king of Chu.

"You're doing a great job!"

Yang Feng looked around at the three people who were sincerely afraid of worship, and said to Zhang Shicheng with satisfaction.

Descending from the sky with a colorful brilliance, he perfectly proved the lies of those Brahmin elders, and also made the conquest of the king of Chu an act of justice.

Actually, it's the best way to do it.

Otherwise, it is difficult for Zhang Shicheng to conquer this country so easily, even if it is firearms, even if it is firearms, even if it is the Sultanate of Bengal, it is also a population of tens of millions, but this method solves the problem, and wins over the high castes of Hinduism, just like the British in the original history, and then rules those low castes with them, and then cleanses those low castes through the purge of another faith, so that those low castes are also stained, and the result is that everyone is happy.

Even the high-caste natives would treat these conquerors as if they were relatives.

Originally, when India and Pakistan were partitioned in history, the kings of the land were crying and shouting not to let the British go, and some even threatened to commit suicide, and during the two wars, the kings not only donated a lot of money to the British, but also some people simply led their troops to Europe to fight for the British.

And he did it better.

After all, the British would not encourage purges, at most sow discord, while he supported his subjects in purging the demons of their minions and then distributing the latter's land wealth among their subjects......

Although the vast majority fell into the hands of the countrymen.

But the lower castes of the subjects also got the soup to drink after all, and the people who came with Zhang Shicheng were nothing more than tens of thousands of families, counting the old and weak women and children who were still migrating in batches, at most more than 100,000 people, but how many of the original demon minions were there in this land? There are millions, millions of people's wealth, those people take half of it, at least half of it has to be left for the subjects, and the remaining half of the upper castes will take away half of it, and there are still a lot of people left to go to the lower castes, which can be said to be a great joy for all, of course, the almost endless flow of floating corpses on the Ganges every day is not worth mentioning, and besides, this river is like this.

"Immortal master, it's all done by the people below, and the disciples are only participating in the Dao Fa now."

Zhang Shicheng said.

The immortal master not only washed him into the essence, but also taught him a set of cultivation methods, he is now thinking about how to live a long life, and even he rarely cares about government affairs, and is completely in charge of a group of ministers, because the palace is not yet completed, he is now cultivating in the nearby mountain villa every day......

By the way, make people.

After all, he doesn't have many children.

This old guy not only brought all the women he had in Suzhou, but also bought slaves and maids on a large scale, even the local women did not let go, such as the daughters of the purged Bengal Sultan are in his posterior, and those high castes who contributed to show loyalty to him, Ah San is not short of beauties, those with dark skin are low castes, and high castes are the same as white, don't mention Ah San is those dinosaurs in the dirty water of the Ganges, the appearance of the high caste and the low caste is not at the same level at all.

Now the number of Gong beauties in this old guy has gone to thousands!

Yang Feng patted him on the shoulder in approval.

That's the matter of the Chu State, in fact, Zhang Shicheng's choice is the smartest, no matter whether his descendants can conquer the subcontinent or not, they will continue as rulers in this land, because Zhu Yuanzhang needs such a vassal state, the Chu State can not only serve as the trade center of the Ming Dynasty for the whole of India, but also can deter Wu Sizang from behind, it can be said that as long as the Chu State and the Ming Dynasty maintain a close relationship, Wu Si Zang will never want to do things, once they want to do things from here The Ming army will go straight to its hinterland, Just like Yang Feng did during the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang must support the state of Chu.

Yang Feng made a short stop in Gusu, and flew to the west under the common worship of all Huayi, including those Brahmins, and flew to his next stop, the Han Kingdom.

Chen Youliang is not so simple there.

Basra.

"Here comes the horseman!"

Zhang Dingbian said with a smile while holding the binocular.

They were under the city of Basra at this time, the Ilkhanate had perished, and the lower reaches of the two rivers were ruled by the Zarayirs, the Mongols, but they had been greatly eaten, and this dynasty existed for a short time, and was soon destroyed by Timur the Cripple, although it was later restored but immediately incorporated into the Persian Black Sheep Dynasty, but the capital of Zarayir was in Tabriz, and only lived in Baghdad in winter. And this area is not just one, after the fall of the Ilkhanate, the whole khanate was divided into several parts, the northern part of the Zarayil dynasty, including the Kurdish settlements, belonged to the Muzafaric dynasty, which was subordinate to the Mamluks in Egypt, and the Mamluk-controlled areas included Syria and other places, and the eastern part of Persia and Afghanistan were the Kartid dynasty.

Together with the southern part of Central Asia and northern Persia controlled by Timur the Cripple, and the peninsula of Asia Minor controlled by the Ottoman Empire, the situation in the whole of West Asia and the Middle East is roughly the same.

The strongest is the lame.

Of course, not anymore.

"The old rules!"

Chen Shan'er, who was beside Zhang Dingbian, said.

Without hesitation, the prince of Han mounted his horse and took off his spear, at this time his whole body was wrapped in plate armor, but not steel, but titanium plate armor given by his master, and behind him five hundred cuirassiers on Arab horses quickly lined up.

This is all the current cavalry of the Han army.

War horses were obtained in Muscat, but it was not easy to transport 30,000 soldiers from Muscat here, of course, it was impossible to transport thousands of war horses, Zhang Dingbian, who was famous for his cavalry, now only had 500 cavalry available, but he did not count on these cavalry. After Chen Shan'er got on his horse, he immediately led his subordinates to retreat behind a huge multi-layered arc composed of 30,000 infantry, and in the escort of this huge arc was a large-caliber mortar position, a fifty-pound mortar cannon was constantly firing expensive flowering shells into Basra, the city was completely obscured by billowing smoke, and the loud sound of explosions kept coming, and on the Euphrates River, which was protected by the Han army's formation, warships full of supplies were docked, and the crew was constantly unloading boxes of ammunition and canned food.

"It's called the Moon Array!"

Zhang Dingbian said indifferently as he looked at the surging cavalry.

"Dashuai, has the mortar adjusted its target?"

An officer next to him said.

"No, they haven't been hit by flowering shells, and as soon as our cannons go off, they all ran away, so how can we pursue them with five hundred cavalry? Just wait for them to come, these cavalry are almost all the forces that can be gathered in the surrounding cities, and the only thing left is to take over the territory after the battle is destroyed. ”

Zhang Dingbian said.

In fact, the area was also hit by the plague.

Especially Baghdad, which is also the hardest hit area of the Black Death, not that the Black Death only swept Europe, West Asia and the Middle East and North Africa were also affected to a certain extent, but the climate in this area is arid and hot, and it is obviously not as suitable for bacteria as Europe.

But soon it passed.

The Black Death stopped in Baghdad in the Middle East, but it still took a heavy toll in the region, with cities such as Damascus, Aleppo, Baghdad and even Mecca all battered, and it has not really recovered until more than 20 years later.

In addition, the area itself is divided, so the Han army only targets the Zara Yier people, and there will not be too many enemies, but what needs to be worried is that they play guerrilla warfare, so they must lure the enemy as much as possible in the battle and then gather and annihilate to avoid them scattering and hiding in the surrounding desert.

At this time, nearly 10,000 cavalry on the opposite side had already begun to charge, and the Arabian horses were galloping wildly, and the mixed cavalry of Mongolia, Arabia and even Persia rushed forward, and they were fearless who had never faced the line infantry, and in their opinion, these unarmored light infantry were for the cavalry. And the veterans of the Han army who almost single-handedly wiped out more than half of the Yuan army on their own looked at these cavalry indifferently, and in their eyes this was also a food delivery.

In the position behind them, the twelve-pounder cannon was the first to roar, followed by the six-pounder gun, and the cavalry continued forward under the blow of solid shells.

Soon they began to slow down.

These were all light cavalry, and their task was to shoot with bows and arrows instead of charging into battle, and the jungle on the opposite side was densely packed with bayonets and needed heavy cavalry to ram them, and they didn't do that.

However, they did not know that it was suicide.

The next moment the flintlock pistols in the hands of all the infantry spewed flames at the same time.

The charging cavalry collapsed suddenly.

However, the follow-up did not have time to turn around, and continued to step over their companions, because the panic soon began to retreat or disperse in confusion, and some stopped trying to pick up their bows and arrows to attack as they expected, so they gave the infantry a chance to reload, and after only twenty seconds, the veterans, who could be said to have been battle-hardened, fired bullets again, and then the cavalry fell again in pieces.

Only then did they understand that bows and arrows were useless in such battles.

The difference in the power of the weapons between the two sides is too great.

The light cavalry immediately gave up the attack, and then parted to the sides, giving way to the most elite heavy cavalry behind them, the latter's charge began immediately, the Han army was still a continuous bombardment of twelve-pounder and six-pounder guns, but the heavy cavalry was put to a distance of ten zhang before firing a volley, and the two thousand heavy cavalry fell at least a third in an instant, but the rest did not give the Han infantry another chance to shoot, they crashed into the bayonet array in front of the infantry line like a torrent of steel.

However, at this moment, countless grenades fell from the sky, and the sound of explosions and the smoke of fire made the war horse collapse instantly.

The charge of the heavy cavalry was in disarray.

The horses that suddenly encountered this kind of thing were completely frightened, and in the face of the explosion of hundreds of black powder grenades, they instinctively turned around, and even fell under the inertial push, or collided with the cavalry behind them in confusion, only a few cavalry crashed into the bayonet forest, but in the blink of an eye they were pierced into a sieve. At the same time, the vast majority of the infantry who did not suffer the impact began the second round of shooting, and in the dense bullet shooting, the cavalry who were desperately controlling the war horses under their crotches fell one after another, and in the blink of an eye, less than half of the two thousand cavalry remained, and the follow-up heavy cavalry who were being bombarded with solid bullets knew that they were invincible and hurriedly retreated......

"Kill!"

Chen Shan'er roared.

His five hundred cuirassiers immediately urged the horses.

And at this moment, a figure slowly descended from the sky......
