Chapter 578 The Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty surrounded Delhi (please subscribe!)

In the luxurious palace of Delhi, Aurangzeb's good son Bahadur Shah I, the new Mughal emperor, was sitting on his throne as if on pins and needles, unable to sleep or eat well.

He will soon be the last Mughal emperor!

The Mughal Empire, which had ruled Tianzhu for more than a hundred years, was about to disappear. The Ming and Qing Dynasties were more powerful and terrifying than imagined.

The armies of the Ming and Qing Dynasties attacked Delhi and Agra. Each army was invincible, attacking cities and lands, and conquering them all. In just a few months, most of the areas had fallen to the Ming and Ming Dynasties.

Qing's hands.

To the east, the Ming people who occupied the Bengal Sultanate came from east to west along the Ganges River, bringing powerful weapons and troops with them to fight their way over.

Those local nobles who used to be indifferent to him are now begging their grandfathers to sue their grandmothers, pretending to be grandsons and begging them to send troops to support them.

Because the Ming Dynasty was so cruel and ransacked the homes of those nobles. Who could withstand this?

The west side is better, progress is slower, but the Qing army is too numerous!

Moreover, his father Aurangzeb died in Lahore, which caused the morale of the Mughal army to be extremely low.

Moreover, there are three bastards from the UK, the Netherlands, and Portugal in the south who are taking advantage of this opportunity.

But Bahadur Shah I no longer has the time and energy to take care of the affairs of South Tianzhu. He is also unable to protect himself at this moment, because he needs to do his best to fight against the Ming and Qing armies.

Forty thousand people guarded Agra in the east. There was sufficient food and grass, and the city walls were strong and tall. Originally, Bahadur Shah I had high hopes.

The plan was to surround this imperial capital of the Aurangzeb era and hold back the Ming Dynasty's army.

In this way, he had time to gather the scattered garrisons and fight the Qing Dynasty in Delhi.

But who could have imagined that Agra could not hold on for even a day, and the 40,000-strong army was destroyed along with the city of Agra. The southern gate guarding Delhi was opened, and the Ming army could attack Delhi at any time!

The once arrogant and self-proclaimed Brahmins of Agra and their noble status all knelt at the feet of the Ming Dynasty, expressing their willingness to surrender to the Ming Dynasty and praying for their lives to be spared.

All the stumbling blocks that could hinder the Ming Dynasty have been removed, and Delhi is like an undressed girl, waiting for the mob to come.

Originally, the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty agreed to divide Agra in half according to their verbal agreement. However, the Ming Dynasty advanced too fast and swallowed the entire Agra, including its skin and bones.

Kangxi was helpless. Even if he got back half of Agra, all the loot would be robbed, so he might as well attack Delhi with all his strength.

"Great Emperor, the armies of the Ming and Qing dynasties are less than fifty miles away from us. One of them came from the west, and the other came from the east."

A minister hurriedly came to report.

"Great Emperor, we should evacuate Delhi immediately. The Ming and Qing people are too strong, the Mughal army is too weak, and stubborn resistance will only lead to death."

"Yes, Your Majesty, let's withdraw. If we don't withdraw, it will be too late. The enemy's cavalry will definitely be one step ahead, and they may reach the city of Delhi soon."

"The Ming Dynasty's cannons are so powerful that our city walls cannot stop them and will be easily torn to pieces. Our wisest choice is to evacuate Delhi."

In the main hall, ministers shouted out one after another, clamoring to evacuate Deli. When they heard the Ming and Qing armies coming, it felt like the end of the world.

In fact, it is indeed the end of the world.

It was better to fall into the hands of the Qing Dynasty, because the Qing Dynasty needed to unite all religious forces in Tianzhu, and at least it did not dare to go too far against the high-caste nobles.

But the Ming Dynasty was more casual. It all depended on their mood. Unless they surrendered quickly enough, the Ming army might let them go.

The most outrageous thing is that those low-caste untouchables actually believed in the Ming Dynasty's caste upgrade system and all became cannon fodder for them!

Even if it did not fall into the hands of the Ming people, but fell into the hands of the local Tianzhu people, they, the Afghans and Turkic Mongols from Central Asia, would not be able to escape death.

For more than a hundred years, they have been riding on the untouchables of Tianzhu to dominate and adopt the strategy of high-pressure rule, which has already accumulated many conflicts!

As long as there is a chance, the untouchables of Tianzhu will definitely not mind killing all these Afghans and turning Turks into Mongols.

"withdraw?"

"Where to retreat?"

"We can no longer go back to Central Asia. Now the Afghans are the watchdogs of the Qing Dynasty."

"As for other places, they have all been attacked by the Ming Dynasty. The governors of various places have no time to take care of themselves. Where else can we retreat?"

The bloody minister stood up and looked at the escapees in front of him as if he hated iron.

They have reached a point where there is no way out.

"The world is so big, I don't believe there is no place where we can evacuate. At worst, we can be nomadic on the grasslands like our ancestors."

"When you are nomadic on the grassland, do you know how to herd sheep or herd horses? Look at how fat you are like a pig, can you still return to the grassland?"

In more than a hundred years, these Turkic Mongols were no longer the powerful nomadic tribes that swept across Tianzhu.

Bahadur Shah I looked at the civil servants and generals below. They were all made of silk and satin, with fat heads, big ears, and big bellies. He couldn't help but raise a question: Can they still wear armor? Can they afford a scimitar?

?

"Then tell me, what should we do?"

"You can't wait to die here, right?"

"What to do? Of course we have to fight to the death with the Qing people and the Ming people here."

"Have you ever been able to beat them?"

"If you can beat them, you will beat them. If you can't beat them, you will beat them. Even if you die, you will bite off a piece of their flesh."

"It's no use just talking. Agra is guarded by 40,000 troops and relies on tall and strong city walls, but it can't even hold on for a day. How many days can we in Delhi hold on?"

"It's better to surrender to the Qing Dynasty!"

Some ministers suggested surrendering to the Qing Dynasty. At least there were many Afghans and Mongols in the Qing army, so it would be a good plan to unite with the Qing Dynasty to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

However, this plan is good for the ministers, but not good for Bahadur Shah I. It will only lead to death anyway. If he, the emperor, surrenders, what will happen to him?

Bahadur Shah I looked at the quarreling ministers below and felt extremely irritable.

Mahler Gobi, I’m not dead yet, and you’re thinking of surrendering?

He looked at the luxurious palace in front of him. This was a luxurious palace built by several generations of emperors after plundering Tianzhu's huge wealth.

Do you really want to give up here?

Just as he was about to say something, military news suddenly came.

"Report!"

"The cavalry from the Ming and Qing Dynasties have arrived at our city in Delhi!"
