- After Zhu Cihuan ascended the throne, the following year was regarded as the first year of Jingping.
On the first day of the first lunar month of the first year of Jingping, Zhu Cihuan appointed King Wu Lie Ding Yunyi as his regent, taking charge of the world's military and political affairs. He also worshiped him as the general marshal of the world's military and horses and the chief minister of the cabinet.
A new history of Ming Dynasty has begun!
This is the Ming Dynasty reborn from the ashes!
Ding Yunyi immediately formed a cabinet, with Qin Yun as his secondary assistant. He also vigorously reformed the official system of the Ming Dynasty, establishing the Minister of Defense, the Minister of War, the Minister of the Navy, the Minister of Education, the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, etc.
The emperor will eventually become the spiritual leader of a country, and the real authority that maintains the core of national operations will be the cabinet.
On the first day of February, Ding Yunyi changed the chief minister of the cabinet to the prime minister, and established a parliament, divided into the upper house and the lower house. Members of the House of Lords, composed of knights and judges, have the power to veto bills passed by the House of Commons. The House of Commons has the power to legislate, supervise the government, and supervise finance.
Such reforms began to be implemented in the Ming Dynasty.
This is the best era, this is the best time.
Ding Yunyi, the mighty king, swept across the world with hundreds of thousands of troops and restored the Ming Dynasty. His personal prestige has reached its peak. In the eyes of most people, he is the God of Ming Dynasty. Although there was resistance to the reforms he proposed, with his huge personal prestige, such resistance was minimal and was quickly drowned out by calls for support.
The status and power of the emperor is weakening step by step. The emperor will eventually rule without ruling. He will only be a symbol of the highest power and enjoy only ceremonial responsibilities, including the right to consult, encourage, and warn.
This is the so-called national spiritual leader!
On the sixth day of February, the Regent Ding Yunyi announced that he would cancel the title of Tiger Guards, transfer 30,000 Tiger Guards, rename them the "Royal Guards", and reorganize the entire army, collectively known as the "Emperor Guards". The rank of general was restored and divided into six levels and twenty-four levels.
Among them, there are three army generals and three navy generals. Swede and Mansoura, the founders of Major Swede's Regiment, were commanders-in-chief of the Imperial Foreign Legion. Shi Weide was awarded General Zhenwei and Mansoura was awarded General Zhenwu.
The Pirate Alliance was also reorganized, collectively known as the "Imperial Expeditionary Fleet". It is unified and controlled by the Imperial Navy General Ye Dahai.
In June of the first year of Jingping, King Wu Lie Ding Yunyi summoned the imperial fleet and announced a great adventure and exploration around the world. The first batch of thirty-six fleets was dispatched.
August. The new thirty-eight fleets were dispatched again.
Their goal is the vast sea, the distant West, and those who have explored it. Or places that have never been explored.
The Age of Discovery of the Ming Empire has begun!
In September, the Ming Empire solemnly notified the Fo Langji people who had taken up residence in Macau, ordering them to leave Macau immediately within two months. The Fo Langji people refused this request.
In December, the Ming Empire took Cai Jiuzhou as its commander-in-chief. With Xiao Yifeng as the infantry commander, he raised 30,000 troops and attacked Macau.
The Battle of Macau lasted three months. In March of the second year of Jingping, the Portuguese Governor of Macau, Lang Chilie, announced his surrender, and Macau was re-incorporated into the Ming Dynasty.
Prior to this, in October of the first year of Jingping, the 27th Expeditionary Fleet commanded by the Golden-winged Eagle arrived in Diu, the Mughal Empire, and requested supplies, but was rejected by the Diu Fulangji people. Garuda bombards Diu. The Folan robots quickly fought back.
The "Battle of Diu" breaks out!
The Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan declared neutrality.
In Diu, the 27th Expeditionary Fleet and the Fo Lang robots bombarded the area for three days. As supplies were about to be cut off, the Golden-winged Eagle temporarily retreated.
The first "Battle of Diu" was won by the Francois.
Only twenty days later, the Golden-winged Eagle, supported by the 26th and 28th Expedition Fleets, was involved again. Three fleets launched a frantic bombardment of Diu.
This shelling put a heavy pressure on the Francois in Diu!
On the eighth day of the bombardment, the Falangji people asked for negotiations. Since the expedition fleet did not have the absolute strength to seize Diu at that time, the Golden-winged Eagle agreed to the negotiation.
The final result of the negotiation was a settlement with Fo Langjiren paying 30,000 gold coins in compensation.
The second "Battle of Diu" ended.
In the second year of Jingping, the Ming Empire began its campaign to regain Macau. The Ming Empire declared a state of war with the Franco Kingdom. The Imperial Expeditionary Fleet attacks Diu again.
The third "Battle of Diu" breaks out!
This time the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet was fully prepared, and a total of six fleets joined the attack. The Franji people once again requested negotiations, but were rejected by the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet.
What Diu endured this timeThe force was much more ferocious than the previous two "Battles of Diu". A large number of artillery shells roared towards Diu, causing the Francois to suffer heavy casualties.
This bombardment lasted for ten days. In order to achieve victory, the expedition fleet was at full capacity.
"Fo Langji can't stand it any longer. The local commander of the Franco army, Odavin, was forced to declare surrender, the expedition fleet occupied Diu, and at the same time declared Diu a colony of the Ming Empire.
A new colony of the Ming Empire was born.
Shah Jahan, the ruler of the Mughal Dynasty, soon felt the strong pressure from the Ming Empire. After conspiring with the Folangji and Ganlasi people, the Mughal Empire sent 170,000 troops, and the Folangji Three thousand troops were sent, and Gan Lasi sent seven thousand troops, a total of 180,000 troops advanced towards Diu.
The outbreak of war!
At this time, the Ming Dynasty Expeditionary Force in Diu only numbered more than 30,000 people. However, with the powerful artillery power, the expeditionary force firmly defended Diu and inflicted heavy losses on the coalition forces.
In June, a large number of reinforcements from the Ming Empire arrived, and the counterattack began!
The Folangji and Ganrasi people did not care about the casualties of the Mughals. When they saw the arrival of a large number of enemy troops, they quickly began to withdraw from the battlefield.
The Mughals have been betrayed!
Although the Mughals had a seemingly extremely powerful army, these armies that also used cold weapons were completely vulnerable to the Ming army, which was almost entirely armed with firearms.
On June 20, the two sides launched a decisive battle in Ciwo, known in history as the "Ciwo War".
In this campaign, the Ming army invested 60,000 troops and the Mughal army invested 150,000 troops.
But war is no longer decided by the strength of both sides. The Ming army had an absolute advantage in firearms, and their firearms were simply the worst nightmare for the Mughal army.
The decisive battle of Ciwo continued into the afternoon, and the entire left wing of the Mughal army collapsed. The Ming army quickly organized its forces to break through the center. The Mughal army was about to be defeated.
At this time, out of concern for their own safety, the Flemji and Ganrasi people who had abandoned the Mughal army once again entered the war and barely stabilized the situation.
June 21st. The Ming army reorganized their attack.
This is a decisive day. The Ming army adopted the strategy of attacking the Folangji people first. In the previous war, the number of the Folangji people had been reduced to more than 2,000. The Ming army used 50,000 people to contain the Mughal army and the Ganrasi people, and launched an all-out attack on the Folangji people with an absolute advantage of 10,000 people. attack.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.
After defeating the Fo Lang robot. The Ming army repeated its old tricks. Once again, they concentrated their superior forces to attack the Ganrasi people.
Such attacks are difficult to resist. Although the Ganrasi people fought hard, they were unable to stop them in the face of the Ming army's powerful firearms, superior troops, and overwhelming morale.
At noon, Ganrasi commander Ishdala announced his surrender, and the Ganrasi army was defeated!
Now. Only the Mughal army is left!
When the war has reached this point, there is actually not much suspense anymore, and the balance of victory has completely tilted towards the Ming army.
The 150,000-strong Mughal army was simply unable to resist the Ming army's repeated attacks in the afternoon. The Central Army of the Mughal Army suffered its heaviest losses since the beginning of the war.
Babak, the commander-in-chief of the Mughal army, felt helpless.
When organizing the last defensive operation, a cannonball exploded next to Babak, and the general trusted by the Mughal emperor died tragically on the battlefield.
The Mughal army was defeated across the board, and the "Second War" ended.
After a short rest, the Ming army received 20,000 domestic reinforcements and a large amount of supplies, and launched a powerful offensive against the Mughal Empire again.
The Ming Empire has made up its mind to completely destroy the Mughal Empire and turn it into the largest colony of the Ming Empire!
At that time, the Mughal Empire came to power after their emperor Shah Jahan ascended the throne. It has reached its peak period, but unfortunately they encountered a more terrifying opponent at this time:
The Ming Empire!
This is a difficult opponent to defeat!
They were all armed with muskets and artillery, and their muskets and artillery were far ahead of this era. Although the Mughal Empire also purchased some weapons from the Taishi, they could not compare with the Ming army in terms of quantity or quality.
Faced with the rapid advance of the Ming army. The Mughal Empire's army suffered defeats again and again, and they were unable to stop the powerful Ming army.
This is a game with no hope at all??'s war, and in order to prevent the defeat of his kingdom, Shah Jahan mobilized almost all the forces that could be mobilized.
He must do everything he can to stop the Ming army's advance. He must do everything possible to prevent the destruction of his kingdom.
But this task seems so difficult to achieve.
While advancing rapidly, the Ming army adopted a method they were very good at before: buying off the nobles in the areas ruled by the Mughals. Let them serve the Ming Empire.
Under the threat of force and the temptation of money, a large number of Mughals chose to cooperate with the Ming Empire. They have to keep their property, and they have to increase it several times more.
As for the survival of the Mughal Empire? It doesn't seem to have much to do with them
In September of the second year of Jingping, the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan organized a huge army, with a total of thirty-five people, and set up a decisive battle with the Ming army in Quhan City.
At the same time, they also received assistance from the Folangji and Ganrasi people.
The situation at that time was that the left wing of Quhan City was commanded by Chajak, with 100,000 troops, the right wing was with 100,000 troops commanded by Nadine Lang, and the central army was commanded by Bamen Baha, with 150,000 troops.
It was a battle, but the Ming army still only invested 60,000 men!
Sixty thousand versus 350,000, no matter from which perspective the Ming Army's chances of winning this battle are very small, except for the Ming Army generals who don't think so.
Commanding the Ming army is Li Dingguo, an outstanding general of the Ming Empire!
This young commander, while setting up a decisive battle outside Quhan City, sent a large number of Mughal spies into Quhan City to collect intelligence.
Intelligence flowed continuously into the hands of Li Dingguo. This young and resourceful commander quickly made the most accurate judgment on the battlefield situation.
Although on the surface it seems that the Mughal army has the upper hand, their core command system is actually very disunified.
There are conflicts between Chajak and Nadine Lang, Nadine Lang and Bamen Baha, and Bamen Baha have conflicts with Chajak. In other words, there are many contradictions within the Mughal Army!
this. This is the best opportunity Li Dingguo can take advantage of.
Li Dingguo was not in a hurry to start a decisive battle, but secretly contacted Chajak. He promised that once the Mughal Empire was defeated, Chajak could retain all his property, territory, and status, and would transfer one-third of Nadinglang's territory to Chajak's name.
This proposal was full of temptation for Chajak.
After thinking for a long time, Chajak chose to cooperate with the Ming army.
The war has not begun yet. The advantage has already been on the side of the Ming army.
September 19th. The decisive battle of Quhan City broke out.
The artillery fire of the Ming army enveloped Quhan City.
Cannonballs fell overwhelmingly, burning the city of Quhan with raging fire. Under such powerful and intensive artillery fire, the only thing the Mughals could do was to hold on.
"No one can stop our progress!"
Before going on an expedition, Ding Yunyi, the regent of the Ming Empire, once told his beloved general. And Li Dingguo also firmly remembered these words in his heart.
No one can stop the progress of the Ming Empire!
The artillery fire horribly destroyed everything in front of it. The Mughal casualties had reached an unbearable level in the face of such artillery attacks.
Bamen Baha was very anxious, but there was no way to change the status quo.
They were eager for a decisive battle, but the Ming army refused to give them this chance. The only thing the Ming army had to do was to repeatedly use artillery fire to weaken their determination to resist.
Bamen Baha had to admit it. This trick of the enemy is very effective.
At first, the Mughal Army could still provide strong support, but with the intensification of artillery fire and the increase in casualties, the Mughal Army's morale was severely shaken.
Then, the escape incident occurred, and once such a thing has begun, it is difficult to restrain it.
In just one day, the number of fleeing Mughal soldiers exceeded 30,000. The number of casualties was countless.
After another day of shelling, on the 21st, the Ming army finally launched an offensive posture. This actually made Bamen Baha breathe a long sigh of relief.
Quhan City was already in ruins under the bombardment of the Ming army's artillery fire, and the morale of the army dropped to a shocking level. A decisive battle one day earlier would have ended this terrible torture one day earlier.
Although the Mughal army suffered heavy losses in two daysIt was unbearable, but at this time Bamen Baha still had nearly 300,000 troops in his hands, and he was still confident of winning.
The war finally broke out outside Quhan City.
Bamen Baha took a preemptive approach and threw most of his troops into the battlefield at once.
After artillery comes muskets!
Intensive gunshots rang out on the battlefield. The hordes of Mughal troops fell under musketry attacks. This is a powerful force that they cannot stop at all!
Bamen Baha was struggling to support itself, but an unexpected situation quickly brought the Mughal Army to a terrible collapse!
Chajak suddenly commanded his army to attack Bamen Baha!
The attack from their own people plunged the Mughals into complete chaos. The front is a terrible attack from the Ming army, and the side is an attack from one's own people. Faced with such a double offensive, Bamen Baha was powerless.
There was continuous artillery fire and gunshots. The Mughal army suffered the most horrific slaughter. They fled on the battlefield one after another, and surrendered on the battlefield one after another.
Now surrender has become their best choice!
In fact, the war does not seem to have much to do with them. Which side can win has nothing to do with them. The only thing that has to do with them is how to survive.
This is a simple request.
Of course, sometimes even such demands are difficult to meet. Those who choose to surrender must bear threats from three aspects:
Will the red-eyed Ming army notice their surrender; will Bamen Baha allow their surrender; will Chajak's people stop killing their own people!
Many people who surrendered died inexplicably because of these three reasons.
The Central Army was overwhelmed, and Bamen Baha had to take the remaining troops to Nading Lang's military camp, but Nading Lang's condition may not be much better than him at this time.
What makes Nadine Lang most angry is not the impending failure, but why those damn Ming Dynasty people want to go to Chajak instead of coming to themselves?
¡°If you find yourself, you will make the same choice as Chajak.
Of course, there is no room for redemption. As long as he makes a great contribution, he can still gain the trust of the people of the Ming Dynasty. And the goal of this great achievement. Nadine Long quickly targeted Bamen Baha.
Barmen Baha who just ran to Nadinglang¡¯s military camp was captured alive by Nadinglang before he even had time to take a breath.
Bamen Baha angrily scolded the traitor in front of him, but this was of no avail. What Nadine Lang needed most now was to exchange his head for his own future.
¡°But what Nadine Long never expected was. Only then did Bamen Baha be captured. Before he could get in touch with the Ming army, Chajak's troops had already arrived.
Chajak had already guessed what Nadine Lang would do, but he would never allow such a thing to happen. There was only one person who could gain the trust of the Ming army:
Own!
So the war took on the strangest change:. The Mughals themselves fought!
It is difficult for the Ming army to adapt to the changes on the battlefield. What happened? Why are these people fighting among themselves? Li Dingguo knew what was happening very keenly.
He decisively gave the order for the Ming army to stop their pursuit and let the Mughals consume themselves first.
The war was in full swing, and Chajak¡¯s army and Nadine Lang¡¯s army fought fiercely. Both sides fought together with red eyes and gritted teeth. It's as if he regards the other party as his enemy.
Chajak¡¯s army is still slightly better than some of Nadinglang¡¯s armies, especially since they don¡¯t have to worry about the Ming army coming to attack them.
So, Nadine Lang's army began to be unable to support it.
A comprehensive defeat has begun. Nadine Lang's army finally began a comprehensive rout under the repeated attacks of Chajak's army, and Nadine Lang himself became a prisoner together with Bamen Baha.
"This is the fate of traitors." Bamen Baha sighed and said: "If we join forces together, it is still possible to run back, but now it is too late."
Nadine Lang also knew it was too late. He begged Chajak not to kill him, but how could Chajak, who coveted one-third of Nadine Lang's land, let go of his enemy!
Nadine Lang and Bamen Baha died in the hands of Chajak.
The battle in Quhan City is over. in this war. The Mughal army of 350,000 suffered the most disastrous defeat. Big??Twenty-two thousand people died in the battle, 180,000 people surrendered, and only a few people escaped.
After the Battle of Quhan City, the Mughal power was almost completely lost.
The door to Delhi has been opened!
Those Mughals who surrendered to the Ming army, such as Chajak, became the most reliable force for the Ming army.
In the war against the Mughals. There is one biggest contributor:
Golden-winged eagle!
This young man with a pirate background has now become the commander of the expedition fleet. When the battle in Quhan City is over, he will leave here.
"My journey is on the other side of the sea!" The golden-winged eagle told the equally young Li Dingguo: "Now. It's time for me to set off and explore places I have never been to!"
My journey is on the other side of the sea!
This is after the beginning of the Age of Discovery. A favorite saying among all expedition fleet commanders.
They will reach Hongyi Country, Ganlasi Country, and Folangji Country. I heard that on the other side of the sea, there are Britain, France, Germany, Brazil, Venice, and the Cape of Good Hope.
These are what Ding Yunyi, the king of martial arts, told them.
Ding Yunyi will let them travel to every place in the world, let them go to many countries they have never known, and let them conquer countless lands that they could not even imagine before!
The Age of Discovery has begun!
A dozen more fleets have been dispatched from the country, and they have only one mission:
Go and develop all the land they can develop! Ming's fleet will appear anywhere in the world! The flag of Ming Dynasty will be planted everywhere they can!
The Age of Discovery has begun¡ªmy journey is on the other side of the sea!
"Take care, my brother!" Li Dingguo told the golden-winged eagle solemnly: "Maybe I will wait for you to come back in Beijing, maybe we will meet somewhere else!"
"Take care, my brother!" The golden-winged eagle said with a smile: "I'm leaving. My brothers may have arrived in Mexico now. If I don't keep up with their pace, I will definitely fall behind."
Li Dingguo asked him the last question: "Others call you Golden-winged Eagle, what is your real name?"
The golden-winged eagle was silent for a moment: "My surname is Zhu, Zhu of Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunzhen! You said you would wait for me in Beijing. But I will not go to Beijing. I swear, I will never go to Beijing in my life! My journey is here On the sea, I am willing to open up territory for the Ming Dynasty and build the most powerful Ming Dynasty!¡±
Li Dingguo didn¡¯t quite understand what he meant. The golden-winged eagle suddenly laughed and said: "Tell King Wu Lie when you return to Beijing. He is the best regent in the world, and he is the best leader in the world! The Ming Dynasty is no longer the Ming Dynasty of the Zhu family. The Ming Dynasty has Wu Lie." With King Lie as regent, everyone is relieved. The descendants of Jianwen will be safe from now on!"
Then, he thrust a piece of parchment into Li Dingguo's hand: "Give it to King Wu Lie, and no one will argue about it."
Li Dingguo opened the parchment and found a map. There are three words written on it: "Jianwen Treasure".
Will the descendants of Jianwen disappear from now on? Jianwen treasure? For a moment, Li Dingguo seemed to understand something. When he raised his head, the golden-winged eagle had disappeared from his sight.
Who is the Golden-winged Eagle? What is his identity? Descendants of Jianwen? Is this really the case? Unfortunately, the golden-winged eagle is gone, and no one can give this answer anymore.
In the sixth year of Jingping Dynasty, in the decisive battle between the Ming Dynasty and the European and Western Allied Forces, the warships commanded by Golden Winged Eagle took the lead and sank more than ten warships of the Western and Eastern Allied Forces. Unfortunately, he was hit by a shell from the Thai-Spanish coalition and died on the spot.
The Golden-winged Eagle and his secret sank into the sea forever!
In Beijing, after hearing the news of the death of the Golden-winged Eagle, the regent Ding Yunyi, who had opened the Jianwen Treasure, remained silent for a long time.
It doesn¡¯t matter what his identity is, what matters is. The golden-winged eagle shed his last drop of blood for the Ming Dynasty.
He kept his promise:
My journey - on the other side of the sea.
??The journey of all Imperial Expeditionary Fleets is on the other side of the sea
?¡
The final attack on the Mughal Empire has begun!
Shah Jahan lost his main army, and the Ming army was about to reach Delhi. This was news that caused Shah Jahan to completely collapse.
What¡¯s even more frightening is that there are now less than 100,000 troops left in Delhi. Most of them are still old, weak and disabled soldiers. Why should they stop the Ming army?
Shah Jahan had to put his hope for help on the Folangji and Ganrasi people.
But on the way to Delhi. The Ming army divided its forces and launched an attack on the Fulangji and Ganrasi people. At this time, they could not protect themselves, so how could they protect Delhi?
The countdown to Delhi¡¯s defeat has begun!
In October, the Ming army¡¯s vanguard arrived at Burali Ghat, and Shah Jahan organized the Battle of Burali Ghat again, but the result he obtained was still the same:
fail!
One disastrous defeat after another has completely destroyed Shah Jahan's confidence. He had no idea when the Ming army would appear under the city of Delhi, let alone when the Ming army would appear in front of him.
The great nobles in Delhi made their own choices one after another, either fleeing Delhi or secretly entering into contact with the Ming army. Everyone among them knew:
Delhi, sooner or later will become the Delhi of the Ming Dynasty!
During this march, more and more Mughals chose to fully cooperate with the Ming army, which also expanded the Ming army's team to 28 people.
??Among them, the Ming army only had 60,000 soldiers, while the Mughal army who took refuge actually reached 220,000 people!
This is a ridiculous number.
Finally arrived in Delhi, the last city of hope of the Mughal Empire has appeared in front of the Ming army. Li Dingguo did not issue an order to attack immediately, but began to arrange artillery fire in an orderly manner, making the most complete preparations to capture Delhi.
Delhi was in panic.
Shah Jahan had no choice but to send an envoy to attempt peace talks with the Ming army, but was met with the firmest refusal by Li Dingguo.
Now there is no need for any peace talks. The only choice for Shah and Jahan is to open the gates of Delhi and surrender to the Ming army!
"Shajahan" means "Ruler of the World" in Persian.
Shah Jahan's father was Jahangir, the emperor of the Mughal Empire, the son of Emperor Akbar. In the last years of the reign of Shah Jahan's father, Jahangir, the Mughal Empire began to face a series of challenges. Shah Jahan successfully succeeded These challenges were met and the situation stabilized. He suppressed a Muslim rebellion in Ahanmihar; repulsed the Francois in Bengal; and in the west. It annexed the kingdom of the Rajputs; in the Deccan Plateau, it occupied the kingdoms of Bigafu and Gauzila; in the northwest, it crossed its forces across the Khyber Pass. But Shah Jahan's militarism drained the empire's financial resources. Under his rule, the Mughal Empire turned into a large military machine, and the number of military nobles and troops expanded almost fourfold. This resulted in a sharp increase in the burden on farmers. despite this. During the reign of Shah Jahan, the Mughal Empire continued to expand despite insufficient financial resources.
Another benefit brought by Shah Jahan's rule was the emergence of some large commercial and handicraft centers, such as Lahore, Delhi, Agra and Ahmedabad. These cities and ports and other distant places are closely connected by land and water transportation. Shah Jahan himself moved the capital from Agra to Delhi, the traditional center of Muslim power. During the reign of Shah Jahan, the artistic and architectural achievements of the Mughal Empire reached their peak. He built the famous Taj Mahal in Agra for his beloved wife. The Red Fort was built in Delhi.
But now all this is about to no longer belong to him!
This "ruler of the world" is now forced to face the fate of national subjugation.
The pressure he faced not only came from the Ming army outside the city, but also from within him. The great nobles were forcing him every day to come up with a solution as soon as possible.
But what solution can he have?
The once huge army suffered a complete defeat in front of the Ming army. Now he only has tens of thousands of troops left in his hands that cannot be used at all!
The only way is to follow what the Ming army requires - surrender!
But Shah Jahan was never willing to do this! The power in his hands was obtained through hard work. No one can force him to give up his rights.
In order to strengthen his rule over Delhi, he openly invited several of the most powerful nobles to come to his Red Fort and said that he would discuss surrendering to the Ming army.
The big nobles who didn¡¯t know it was a trick came to the red envelope, but Shah Jahan suddenly turned his back. He called out his guards and brutally killed these big nobles.
The voice of surrender has been temporarily suppressed, but how long can this last?
His eldest son Aurangzeb was well aware of his father's brutality, but he also knew what his family would face if he refused to surrender.
??In this case he had to take action.
Aurangzeb gathered a large number of cronies and like-minded people. They were discussing something in secret, but Shah Jahan was kept in the dark about all this.
On October 18, after the first batch of artillery from the Ming army arrived and began to be tested, Aurangzeb decided not to wait any longer. He had to act in advance.
He came to the Red Fort with a few personal guards. Asking to see his father, it was his younger brother, Shah Jahan's second son Saha, who was responsible for guarding the Red Fort.
Although they are biological brothers, there are irreconcilable conflicts between the two brothers. Saha told his brother coldly. My father is very upset now and doesn¡¯t want to see anyone.
Aurangzeb begged uncharacteristically. Said there was very important military information. This surprised Saha. In his memory, his brother had never been like this. Did something big happen?
Saha asked his brother to wait for a while, and then turned around.
At this time, countless knives struck Saha's body. Saha was hacked to death before he even had time to make a cry.
Aurangzeb and his associates opened the doors of the Red Fort and a large number of rebels rushed in.
At that time, Shah Jahan was preparing how to deal with the Ming army's attack. Suddenly, screams of killing came from outside. This made Shah Jahan very strange. Did the Ming army come in so quickly?
And when he knew that it was not the Ming army that came in, but his own son Aurangzeb, Shah Jahan was shocked.
He never thought that his son would betray him one day!
Shah Jahan's guards were desperately resisting there, but there were too many people participating in the rebellion, and the guards were completely unable to resist the enemy's attacks one after another.
Shah Jahan didn¡¯t want to run away, and he actually had nowhere to run!
The Red Fort was like a big cage that locked him tightly. Perhaps Shah Jahan never thought about this day happening when he designed the castle.
Aurangzeb finally appeared in front of Shah Jahan.
Shah Jahan looked at him calmly: "My son. What do you want to do?"
"Father, the Ming army is about to attack the city." Aurangzeb also acted very calmly: "We cannot resist their attack, so I can only use you to exchange for peace in Delhi."
"You want to use me in exchange for peace in Delhi?" Shah Jahan smiled sarcastically: "My child, how stupid you are. Do you think that after handing me over, those Ming Dynasty people can let go?" Have you passed me? No. You are wrong, they will still occupy this place and enslave it, and you are just their slave."
"I can't control that much anymore." Aurangzeb's eyes shot out a fierce light: "Handing you over may be what you said. But not handing you over will only accelerate our destruction. For all of us. "Father, please stop resisting!"
Shah Jahan picked up a knife. He did not believe that his son would come to kill him.
He walked towards Aurangzeb step by step, and Aurangzeb tightened his grip on the knife in his hand. When I walked up to my son. Shah Jahan suddenly let out a loud shout and slashed Aurangzeb with a knife.
Aurangzeb was younger than the father he knew, and his movements were more dexterous and stronger than his father. He stabbed Shah Jahan in the heart with one knife.
Shah Jahan took a step back, lowered his head in disbelief, and stared blankly at the knife on his chest.
Son, this is my own son, he actually stabbed me with a knife! Shah Jahan fell softly and fell into a pool of blood. He fell under his son's knife.
On the 18th, after killing his younger brother and father one after another, Aurangzeb couldn't wait to announce that he would become the great emperor of the Mughal Empire.
The first thing he did after taking office was to open the gates of Delhi and surrender to the Ming army.
What he never expected was. The first thing the Ming army did after entering the city was to arrest Aurangzeb and declare him a shameful murderer for killing his father and brother.
On the 19th, Aurangzeb was secretly executed.
The sixth day of November. The Ming Empire announced that the Mughals had become a colony of the Ming Dynasty, and the Mughals were subjugated!
The Mughal dynasty ruled most of the South Asian subcontinent. Also known as the Mughal Dynasty and the Mughal Empire. It was the Indian dynasty founded by Babur. After the division of the Great Mongol Empire established by Genghis Khan in the 13th century. A Turkic military aristocrat, Timur, founded the Timurid Empire. After the split of Timur's empire, Babur, a descendant of Timur??The Uzbeks were expelled from Central Asia and led their troops south to occupy Afghanistan.
