Chapter 569 Kangxi captures the famous city of Lahore (please subscribe!)

If you leave now, your retreat will most likely turn into collapse.

Let alone defeating Kangxi by then, whether he can survive is still a question.

Because once Aurangzeb's army collapsed outside Lahore, it would take at least ten days to escape from Lahore to Delhi, and would also pass through the Punjab region where Sikhs were everywhere.

So whether Aurangzeb himself can escape or not is a question!

Aurangzeb couldn't understand how he could run a great empire so well that it suddenly failed.

Prince Kang Jieshu's tactics were indeed effective, and the use of rockets and grenades also played a significant role.

However, Aurangzeb was not without the ability to fight back.

While the motley coalition attacked the right wing, Aurangzeb was constantly adjusting his formation and tactics.

He sent some cavalry to pursue and intercept the cavalry of the Qing coalition, and successfully curbed their flank and rear outflanking.

On the battlefield, he also began to adopt more flexible tactics, using a mixed team of musketeers and spearmen to defend and counterattack.

In addition, he continued to mobilize troops to the right wing, preparing to launch a major counterattack there!

However, Aurangzeb's army was already on the edge of a cliff, suffering heavy casualties, low morale, and could collapse at any time.

If the situation cannot be reversed soon, his army will be unable to save the war.

Aurangzeb's life and death battle is quietly unfolding.

In addition to mobilizing troops, in order to prevent the collapse of his subordinates, he personally attacked his right wing.

Most of his soldiers had been sent out to supervise the battle. They formed a line outside a village where he was stationed, all carrying scimitars. The large groups of Mughal soldiers retreated and were completely blocked by them.

Aurangzeb's son Bahadur Shah, escorted by a detachment of cavalry, ran back and forth behind the human line, loudly announcing the bounty and ordering the troops to retreat and return to the front.

"Fifty rupees, as long as you hold on till night, fifty rupees each!"

The reward of fifty rupees is indeed not low, but the Central Asian men who have persisted for a day no longer want to fight.

They are equivalent to the Eight Banners disciples of the Mughals. They have already degenerated, and it is a miracle that they can persist until now.

But Tianzhu's native army, the Mughal Green Camp, was really unreliable.

Aamir Khan has proven this.

If Aurangzeb's Central Asian mercenaries are the Eight Banners, then Kangxi's Central Asian soldiers are equivalent to the Shengnuzhen at the peak of their combat effectiveness!

What's more, these "born girls" also have terrible rockets and grenades!

How to fight this!

But because Aurangzeb personally came to supervise the battle, they did not dare to escape, but were blocked here. At this moment, someone suddenly shouted: "His Majesty Alamgir is here!"

It turned out that Aurangzeb had come out of the village, and he was going to personally cheer up the people below him. He had to wait until dark, and then he could retreat.

Although already anxious, the Mughal "world conqueror" still maintained a very calm demeanor. He was riding on a Tianzhu folded horse and seemed to have everything under control.

By the way, this fold-eared horse is also called a Mawari horse. They usually have curved, inward-facing ears that can rotate 180 degrees. You can use your ears to compare your heart with horses. With their slender limbs, they exude

Elegant and charming temperament.

Aurangzeb rode his beloved folding-eared BMW around behind the front line, but suddenly he heard the Central Asian mercenaries who were blocked and unable to escape frantically shouting: "Mongols! The Mongols are coming!

"

This made Aurangzeb feel strange, because damn, the Mongols had arrived a long time ago and started attacking them since the morning, and they have not stopped until now.

At this moment, his son Bahadur Shah screamed in horror: "Father, the damn Mongols are behind us!"

He quickly looked back, only to see dust flying all over the sky, and at the same time he heard the rumble of horse hooves, which made him feel even more uneasy.

The sound of horseshoes became louder and louder, became denser and thicker, and finally turned into a "boom, boom, boom" sound.

By this time, Aurangzeb could see clearly under the dust, groups of terrifying and upright Eight Banners cavalry!

It turned out that Kangxi Khan of the Mongol Empire of the Qing Dynasty and his cavalry used a trick to deceive Zakir's 30,000 cavalry who were following him.

After getting rid of the following cavalry, Kang Mazi came all the way and finally rushed to the right side of Aurangzeb's army before dark!

The Qing coalition forces on the battlefield also discovered that their own reinforcements had arrived, so they no longer reserved any strength and immediately launched a general attack!

On the battlefield, the sound of guns and artillery suddenly intensified, crackling and crackling, mixed with long live shouts in several languages ​​​​used by the Qing and Mongolian allied forces, coupled with the cries of the Mughal army, and the sound of screams rolled up in La.

On the plain on the east bank of the Wei River, it rushes straight towards the majestic ancient city of Lahore.

In Aurangzeb's eyes, everything turned gray.

At this moment, an unknown voice shouted in horror: "The Mongols are coming! Run!"

Suddenly, the Mughal army, which had fallen into panic, collapsed like a tide and fell towards the emperor of Tianzhustan. In the blink of an eye, it completely engulfed him and his soldiers.

Kangxi won, and he won effortlessly.

Aurangzeb, who had been fighting for most of his life, actually did not accumulate much combat effectiveness for his army.

The army he commanded was not only incomparable to the Ottoman Empire, but was even inferior to Persia, which had carried out European-style military reforms.

What's even worse is that they even lost to a scumbag like Bukhara in the early Central Asian wars!

Then, under the bombardment of the Shenhuo Feiyang rockets and the Weiyuan artillery and light general artillery of the Qing Mongolian army, such an army actually withstood the attacks of the Mongolian coalition, which was only half their number, and tried their best to hold on for most of the day.

, this is really amazing!

Their performance was indeed worthy of the high military salary paid by Aurangzeb.

When Kangxi Khan successfully deceived Zakir's main cavalry with the Junggar cavalry, it became a key turning point in the battle!

After the 28,000 banner heavy cavalry rushed to the battlefield on a rapid march, it was the harvest moment.

The arrival of the Eight Banners became the straw that broke the camel's back.

After they launched a general offensive, Aurangzeb's army collapsed completely!

Even Aurangzeb himself was almost swallowed up by the defeated Central Asian mercenaries, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

There is a high probability that he died in the rebellion.

However, the death of Aurangzeb was not the greatest victory achieved by Kangxi Khan in this great battle. The greatest victory he achieved was the city of Lahore, the former capital of the Hindustan Empire!

The evening of April 2, 1690.

The proud Kang Mazi was finally welcomed by the residents of Lahore. He led his Qing and Mongol coalition forces and marched into the city with fourteen gates. The magnificent Temple of Allah can be seen everywhere in the city.

And the Palace of Lahore!
