Chapter 1650 Surround and Attack

Chapter 1650 Besiege and attack

Author: Hecheng Fengyue

Aurangzeb's actions undoubtedly brought great chaos to Bengal.

Zumlach has been operating in Bangladesh for many years, has a profound foundation and has many close friends.

Although Aurangzeb used a strategy to kill Jumrah, he also gave others time to react.

It's just that without Zumlach, the others lacked status and strength, and also had no appeal, and were unable to fight against Aurangzeb.

Especially since Aurangzeb's follow-up army quickly entered Bengal, all Jumrah's men chose to flee in despair.

Zumlach's number one general, Ensbad, led seven thousand soldiers and horses to flee eastward, entered the territory of Ahom, and chose to surrender to the Allies.

Only then did the Allies know that there was internal strife within Tianzhu.

This new situation was undoubtedly beneficial to the Allies.

"Aurangzeb is an outsider after all. He needs a lot of time to unify the power of Bengal. And we only need to put in a little effort to make them a mess."

When it comes to politics, Hou Xun is top notch.

While deploying troops and generals during this period, the Allies were also constantly obtaining information about Tianzhu.

In Hou Xun's view, the internal situation in Tianzhu is really a paradise for conspirators.

First of all, Tianzhu cannot be regarded as a unified country.

Even though it was as powerful as the Mughal Empire, it only occupied some areas in the central and northern parts. In the central and southern parts of the South Asian subcontinent, there were many city-states that only nominally submitted to the Mughal Empire.

Secondly, as a foreign political power, the Mughal Empire also brought external culture and beliefs.

The upper echelons of the Mughal Empire were loyal Islamists, but at the grassroots level in India, there were a large number of Brahmans.

Brahmanism is the native religion of Tianzhu, and it has not been assimilated by the Mughal Empire in these years.

Although many rulers of the Mughal Empire adopted tolerant religious policies, there is no doubt that unequal political and social status will inevitably bring about sharp religious conflicts.

This is also one of the reasons why careerists often rebel in various parts of Tianzhu.

It can be said that the majority of Brahmans have suffered from the Mughal Empire for a long time.

In this case, this is an opportunity for the Allies to sow discord.

Hou Xun is even more sophisticated.

"In Tianzhu itself, Brahmanism alone cannot defeat the Mughal Empire. In this case, they will definitely need to rely on external forces. And this is your opportunity for Buddhism. Under the guise of helping Brahmanism

, while assimilating and disintegrating it, Buddhism will definitely be able to return to its homeland."

Hou Xun's plan made the Buddhists overjoyed.

This strategy is really not a whimsical one.

Although Buddhism lost to Brahmanism in history, in fact, there are many intersections between the two religions. Brahmanism has also widely absorbed Buddhist teachings, and they have quite a lot in common.

Furthermore, just because Buddhism lost to Brahmanism in the past does not mean that Buddhism will lose again after reform.

In particular, behind New Buddhism stood a powerful ally. The persuasion of ideas and words coupled with the persuasion of force increased the power by more than a thousand times.

For Brahmanism, the top priority is to get rid of the oppression of Islam. On the contrary, there is certainly not much precaution against the resurgence of Buddhism.

As long as it is supplemented by sufficient economic support, it is very feasible for Buddhism to gain a firm foothold in the South Asian subcontinent.

Once Buddhism takes hold on the mainland, the people of Tianzhu cannot refuse it.

Rajsinghe II and the Buddhists present immediately devoted themselves to research, determined to seize this golden opportunity.

Lu Baoxing, the military officer of the Third Marine Division, and Shu Chengshan, chief of staff, also arrived soon.

However, the other three infantry regiments did not go ashore.

Chang Ying has a new battle plan.

"The 11th Regiment rushed to Karachi and cooperated with the Dutch army to open up the situation there. The battle will be very difficult, so you must be mentally prepared."

When dividing the cake, Hou Xun actually cheated the Dutch.

Although the Indus River Valley allocated to the Dutch seems very beautiful, it is actually the core area ruled by the Mughal Empire, and this area is almost entirely occupied by Islamists.

In the following years, in order to defend this territory, the Dutch will definitely have to deal with endless Islamic counterattacks.

However, this also increased the operational difficulty of the 11th Regiment.

Chang Ying decided to hand over the command of this battle to Shu Chengshan.

Shu Chengshan, who is still a colonel, needs to be promoted with military merit. The harder the environment, the greater the military merit will be.

How could Shu Chengshan not understand his thoughts? He was extremely moved.

"Teacher, don't worry, I will never make any mistakes."

"Lao Lu, you lead the 10th Regiment to Goa to cooperate with the Portuguese army. Remember, your combat direction is east to south. Try not to overly stimulate the Mughals to the north and buy time for the First Division.

.”

Attacking eastward from Goa is the Telangana Plateau.

This was once the territory of the Barman Dynasty, but now it has been divided into five small states. Without this Allied attack, it would have been conquered by Aurangzeb thirty years later and became part of the Mughal Empire.

Since this place does not yet belong to the Mughal Empire, the Allies will naturally not let these soft persimmons go.

If the Western Front can capture the Telangana Plateau, it can join forces with the Allied Forces in Chennai and formally divide the South Asian subcontinent into two parts.

With more time spent on management, the southern region can be transformed into a completely different world.

The tasks of various ministries were assigned in place, and the Allied operations officially began.

The first to take action were the monks.

After disguising themselves, these people began to penetrate into various parts of the mainland under various identities and come into contact with the oppressed Brahmans.

Although Brahmans believe in accepting things as they come, there is a limit to everything.

If you can be a father, who would want to be a grandson?

As a result, the agitation of these monks soon had results, and Brahmans in many areas had hope and regarded these monks as honored guests.

The Brahmans have not yet discovered that the teachings spread by these outsiders contain evil intentions, and they fully hope to gain support so that they can escape the oppression of Islam.

Aurangzeb was a headstrong man.

He hastily cleaned up the mess in Bengal and eagerly led his army to attack the Kingdom of Ahom without waiting for the place to stabilize.

The strength of the Kingdom of Ahom is naturally not worth mentioning, and the entire border soon fell.

The Mughal Empire's hundreds of thousands of troops marched across the plains on both sides of the Jamuna River. They broke through more than forty cities in just one month, and the vanguard had already approached the capital of the Ahom Kingdom.

Su Yafa and other emperors and ministers were so frightened that they lost their wits. One after another, envoys asking for help rushed to the first division.

At the critical moment of life and death, everyone in Ahom quickly stopped being distracted.

Su Yafa mobilized a total of 150,000 laborers to build roads for the First Division along with Burma and Nanzhang.

With ultra-high efficiency, the First Division finally rushed out of the vast mountains before the capital was breached, and appeared on the outskirts of Guwahati.

The sudden appearance of the National Defense Force made the Tianzhu people dare not neglect and had to stop the offensive.

The war is about to break out!
