At the foot of Fo Guang Mountain, there has been a sea of corpses and blood, although Aurangzeb still has more than 10,000 troops into the system, under the defeat, the army of more than 10,000 people is also panicked;

Aurangzeb watched as countless defeated soldiers were pursued like lambs by the side of the sea and the wind, fleeing for their lives, and constantly rushing towards their army. He had no choice but to hurriedly order a retreat, and he didn't even have time to take the ten pieces of artillery with him.

The five-nation alliance army was victorious, pursued all the way for 20 miles, annihilated more than 10,000 enemies, and captured more than 20,000 enemy troops.

Hai Rufeng then ordered that all the more than 20,000 captives be slaughtered.

When Samanja asked him why he did this, Hai Rufeng replied: "Wherever Aurangzeb's army passed, the Hindus were often slaughtered. The slaughter of more than 20,000 prisoners of war now is a tooth for a tooth and blood for a blood.

In addition, the main purpose is to shock the enemy forces from all sides. This time he failed to kill Aurangzeb, and these tens of thousands of troops were only a small part of him, and the other armies totaled more than 100,000, which were attacking the countries, and if they were not slaughtered by iron and blood, it would not be enough to deter the enemy. ”

The reason why the sea is like the wind is very good, and Samansha has nothing to say.

But in fact, what is blood for blood, tooth for tooth, has nothing to do with Hai Rufeng, Aurangzeb slaughtered many Hindus, but none of them were Qin.

The reason why he did this was nothing more than to deepen the hatred between the Mughal dynasty and the Otesa and other countries, so that the two sides would be deeply trapped in a sea of hatred, and it would be difficult to reconcile.

You must know that the previous Mughal emperors were not all so exclusive, the previous emperors all used gentle means to let people of various sects live in peace, and it turned out that among the Mughal officials, there were many Hindu people.

It's just that the current Mughal emperor Sha. Jahan and his son Aurangzeb began to crowd out the infidels. Who knew that after this defeat, Sha. Will Jahan change his policy and revert to a softer approach to Hinduism and other sects?

After the 20,000 captives were slaughtered. At least in the sand. During the reign of Jahan and Aurangzeb in power of the Mughal Empire, it was impossible for the two sides to reconcile.

In this way, Otesa and other countries will rely more on Daqin.

Aurangzeb's defeat caused a huge shock to the Mughal armies, and Mussari and other armies retreated, and the offensive that was originally overwhelming was reversed in an instant.

Otesa, Chetisgarh, Calkend, Simenon and other countries took advantage of the situation to counterattack and regained a large amount of land, a few days later. The strategic point of recovering the city of Gemba in one fell swoop shook the entire Indian continent.

And Aurangzeb, who was defeated all the way, actually spread his anger to the Buddhists, because the light of his defeat was called Fo Guang Shan, and according to legend, Fo Guang Shan often had Buddha light, and there were rumors among the people that this battle was because of the blessing of the Buddha, so that Otesa and other countries won a big victory.

Buddhists were originally a more peaceful group, and in the Mughal dynasty they were not as excluded as Hinduism was. As a result, Aurangzeb was defeated and classified the Buddhists as heretics, and suppressed them harshly as he did with the Hindus.

This has exacerbated the contradictions between the various sects throughout India, and people of different faiths often clash on different scales.

And these. Hai Rufeng is too lazy to take care of it, of course, he can't manage it if he wants to, he can only use it.

At this time, Hua Yingnan, who led two treasure ships and fifteen clippers to the southern port of Visakabot South. Like Ke Chenshu, he pounced, and all the Dutch warships that were originally entrenched in the southern port of Visakhabot disappeared without a trace.

Hua Yingnan killed the port of the land. When I asked the local natives, the natives in the harbor did not know where the Dutch had gone, but only that the Dutch had abandoned the port four days earlier.

Hua Yingnan sailed south for another two days, trying his best to search, but still found nothing, so he had to temporarily turn back, and when he returned to the southern port of Visakabot, he happened to meet Ke Chenshu who came from the north.

On Ke Chenshu's flagship, the captains of all ships gathered in the command cabin, and Hua Yingnan sighed helplessly: "The Dutch avoid fighting, this is troublesome, the Indian Ocean is so big, there are not a few places to anchor, how easy it is to find them." ”

Li Mu, the captain of another treasure ship, said: "As our army advances into India, there will definitely be more and more merchant ships coming to India to trade.

His Majesty once said that in the future, only the navy will be mainly to expand the market demand of Daqin and ensure the safety of maritime trade routes. ”

Ke Chenshu asked his staff officer to put out the map, and then said: "Although the Dutch have many trading posts on the east coast of India, their Indian Viceroyalty is located in the port of Cochin on the west coast, followed by the port of Kolangbu (Colombo) in Ceylon, which is also an important port that they will not give up lightly.

Now they are abandoning the ports on the east coast, presumably because after the defeat in the first battle of Quanwan, they have lingering palpitations and do not dare to fight a decisive battle with our army lightly, and in addition, their strength on the east coast is also relatively weak, so it is reasonable to abandon these ports first and concentrate their forces to avoid being broken by each of us.

Before we came to India, we heard that more than a dozen Dutch warships fought fiercely against the Ottoman navy in the Persian Gulf, and finally the Dutch won. Now presumably this fleet is also gathering eastward;

Among the Western countries, the Dutch still dominate trade in India at present, and I believe that they are not willing to abandon all trading ports and become pirates. ”

Hua Yingnan nodded and said: "The deputy admiral is reasonable, that is to say, now the Dutch are avoiding and not fighting, it is still a process of gathering troops, not really to be pirates to plunder my Great Qin merchant ships." ”

Ke Chenshu shook his head and said: "Westerners have always been both merchants and thieves, and there is no clear boundary, so it cannot be ruled out that in the process of completing the assembly, they will send some warships to plunder the merchant ships of our Great Qin, so as to achieve the purpose of causing chaos to us." ”

Li Mu looked at the map, pointed to the Paulk Strait between Ceylon Island and the Indian mainland, and said: "Deputy Admiral, please look here, as long as we occupy Jaffna, block the Paulk Strait, and then go south to attack the port of Gaolangbu, basically wait until the shipping lanes of the east and west oceans of India are cut off, and the Dutch retreat to the west coast of India, and there is no defense for the time being, but if we want to go to the east coast of India to plunder our Daqin merchant ships, it will not be so easy at that time." ”

The island of Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is like a tear in the Indian Ocean, separated from the Indian mainland by a narrow Pauk Strait, and its strategic location is very important.

If it had not been in a hurry to support Otesa and other countries to resist the Mughal army, the first stop of the ocean-going fleet to advance into the Indian Ocean must have been to first control the port of Gaolangbu on the island of Ceylon.

Hua Yingnan also believed that it was imperative to immediately capture Ceylon and control the east-west shipping lane, but he said with some unease: "If we want to go south to Ceylon, we should first notify Admiral Hai, otherwise once there is a change in Ketak, Admiral Hai will not know where we are going for a while, which will inevitably be a little inappropriate." ”

Ke Chenshu said: "It is naturally necessary to inform Admiral Hai, but there is still a treasure ship in the port of Barradib, and five flying shear warships are here, which means that the war on land is unfavorable, and these six warships are here, which is enough for Admiral Hai to respond."

Now send another clipper back to the port of ElBaradeib, and inform Admiral Hai that once there is a change in Ktak, we can go south to Ceylon to join our main force.

Now that there are more and more Great Qin merchant ships coming to India, we must do our best to control Ceylon and temporarily drive the Dutch to the west coast of India to ensure the safety of the trade routes. ”

After the arrangements were made, Ke Chenshu immediately stood up, sent a clipper ship back to the port of Baladipu, and immediately led the main fleet south to Ceylon.

Ke Chenshu did this, probably to make Hai Rufeng uncomfortable, after all, Hai Rufeng is the commander of the entire ocean-going fleet, and he is suspected of cutting first and then playing a prelude by doing so.

Fortunately, Hai Rufeng has always been a more generous person, so maybe he won't be angry because of this.
