Chapter 958: Governor of the Deccan

***

After eight days of bloody fighting, the Mughal army led by Aurangzeb finally broke through Gampa.

In order to achieve the greatest deterrent effect, Aurangzeb resolutely ordered: slaughter the city.

Waves of Mughal armies, shouting the name of Allah, rushed into the city of Gemba and bloodily slaughtered the defeated soldiers and the people of the city.

In the fire-filled city of Jianba, the sound of crying, pleading, and laughter resounded all over the city, and everywhere there was a scene of burning, killing, and plundering, countless men were mercilessly slaughtered, and the corpses and bones pillowed on the streets, and rivers of blood flowed like rivers;

One by one, women were stripped naked on the street and became the target of the Mughal army.

Aurangzeb watched this scene coldly, with no expression on his face. He was only thirty-two years old, tall and of Mongol, Arab, and Indian blood.

Today's Mughal Emperor Sha. Jahan had four sons-in-law, and Aurangzeb was the youngest, the fourth, but he was the most capable of fighting, so he was named the governor of the Deccan.

The Deccan region refers to the mountainous regions of south-central India, and Aurangzeb now has an army of 160,000 and is fully responsible for the crusade against the small states of the Deccan.

Having just captured the city of Cemba, Aurangzeb is patrolling the city with several of his generals and henchmen.

One of his subordinates hurried back, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and reported to him: "Report to Your Highness the Prince, we have just heard the news that forty large warships of the Qin State have suddenly appeared in the port of Baradipu, defeated the Dutch there, and seized control of the area near the city of Ktak. Mantuo also sent people to the city of Cuttak and was received by the chief general of the Qin army. ”

This news surprised Aurangzeb, and he asked Huck, the strategist beside him, "Huke, you have been in contact with the merchants of Qin, how much do you know about them?" ”

The Qin Empire has only been rising for a few years, and it is still a relatively unfamiliar country for India.

Huck is a man in his forties. Seeming to belong to the Persian blood, he replied respectfully: "Your Royal Highness, I have heard that although the Qin Empire has only risen in recent years, their emperor is a very talented man, and it only took two or three years to unify China, and he also sent troops to defeat the Dzungars in the west.

The Qin Emperor was still an open-minded man, and he changed the Ming Dynasty's policy of forbidding the sea, built a powerful navy, and defeated the combined fleet of the Dutch, British, Portuguese, and Cochin.

Luzon, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, and the Malay Peninsula were also included in the territory of Qin. Later, he defeated Cochin and Togo. Now I heard that only one Siamese state was restored with the help of the Qin Empire, and the other small states were destroyed by the Qin State. ”

Aurangzeb wore a high turban with a long white feather stuck in the middle of the front of the turban, making him look even taller.

After listening to Huck's words, he then asked, "Huck, what do you think of the Qin people's occupation of Ktak?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, I think we should send someone to find out what they are coming to first. If necessary, you might as well contact them first and wait until your strength is clear before making a decision. ”

Several of Aurangzeb's generals were a little unhappy when they heard this, and one of them Jagil Musari said: "Although the Qin people have defeated the Dutch at sea. But in India, it's not yet their turn to show off their might.

Your Royal Highness, I think we should follow the original battle plan and pacify Chhattisgar, Calkend, and Otesa as much as possible. As for the people of Qin, don't bother with it for the time being, and wait for our army to hit Otessa. Just expel the Qin people together. ”

Aurangzeb was an ardent Islamist who advocated the strengthening of the religious status of Islam and was bent on making India fully Islamic. He advocated the reinstatement of a poll tax on non-Muslims, the expulsion of non-Muslim officials from the government, the prohibition of them from official positions, and the construction of a large-scale demolition of Hindu temples and statues.

From these radical propositions of his, it is not difficult to see how fanatical he is.

And he happened to hear that the Qin people did not believe in Islam and forbade people to worship Allah, so he subconsciously had a kind of hostility and hatred towards the Qin people.

He thought for a moment and said: "After the city of Gemba is defeated, the enemy's account is opened, Musari, I order you to take 20,000 troops to the east to attack Raiger, Chalsuguda, and Bčir, and then take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Qin people, seize Ktak, and drive the Qin people into the sea." ”

"Yes, Your Highness the Prince."

Aurangzeb then marched south with an army of 50,000 to attack Raipur.

The city of Jianba is the second largest city in the country of Chetisgarh, a strategic place in the center, which was originally defended by various small countries together, and the loss of Jianba made Chetisgar, Charkend, Otesa and other countries greatly frightened;

In particular, the Chhattisgar state, their capital Raipur, was only 200 miles away from the city of Gemba, and after the loss of the city of Chamba, the capital city of Dhuraipur was wide open, and there was no danger to defend it.

In fact, these small countries in the central and southern parts of the country are called countries, and they are actually tribes divided by the caste system, and their respective troops range from 20,000 to more than 10,000, and each has a piece of territory. The structural form is somewhat similar to the Tusi in the southwest of Daqin.

However, because most of the areas they live in are mountainous areas, they are very good at fighting in mountainous areas, and there is a constant struggle between the original tribes.

It's just that now the Mughal Dynasty has invaded the south on a large scale, destroying Hindu temples and massacring Hindu believers wherever it passes.

It was the common pressure that forced these small states to unite and resist the Mughals.

Now that the city of Cemba had fallen and the small kingdoms were in danger, the king of Chhattisgarh, Tubudi, had heard that Aurangzeb had led an army of 50,000 men towards his capital, Raipur, and did not dare to stay in the capital any longer, and hastily retreated to the mountains to the south.

At this time, the king of Otessa, Mantuo, happened to be sent to build yì with the help of the forces of the Qin state to resist the army of the Mughal dynasty.

No one would refuse this establishment for the small states that were in the midst of a storm, they were located on the southeast coast, they had more contact with the merchants of the Qin army, and they knew the Qin state better than Aurangzebu.

What's more, among the warships of the Qin army this time, there are four huge and amazing, as if islands are floating on the sea, which they dare not imagine, which is enough to show that the strength of the Qin army is extraordinary.

After receiving the invitation, Tubudi, the king of Chhattisgarh, did not think much about it, and rushed to the city of Bodigil himself, of course, he was so diligent that he had no intention of running to take refuge.

When he arrived in the city of Bodigil, Tubudi discovered that Mohabdi, the king of Jalkend, and Nagar, the king of Simon, had also come in person. Together with the king of Otesa Mantu, after the four brothers and sisters hurriedly exchanged pleasantries, a meeting was held under the auspices of Mantu.

They apparently did not realize that this meeting would have multiple implications for the future of India as a whole, and they now only wanted to keep their territory and save their lives.

Mantuo was not only the convener of the meeting, but also the oldest of the four, and he was the first to speak: "Aurangzeb is pressing forward step by step, and with the loss of Jianba, the shape is becoming more and more unfavorable to us.

Aurangzeb came with more than 100,000 troops this time, and he will definitely not give up, and whether we can survive it in the end by ourselves, I believe everyone knows this. ”

Aurangzeb's army was advancing towards the capital of Chettisgarh, and Tubudi was the most anxious, and before Mantuo finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "Don't say these useless, just say it, how can we get the Qin State to help us, it's too late." ”

Nagel also followed: "Yes, yes, it's best to let the Qin army come quickly, I heard that their firearms are very good, I heard that they can also fly over the mountains, the Dutch are vulnerable, if there is Qin army help, we have hope." ”

Mohabudi was more realistic, and he asked, "Is there any condition for the Qin army?" I don't think they will help us for no reason, let's talk about it, what conditions do they have? ”

The other two immediately looked at Mando in unison, waiting for his next step.
