Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 865 Who Is Idiot

In mid-August of the 26th year of Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen, who had been leading the army westward, arrived at the ruins of Qunu City, and suddenly ordered to stop and let the whole army rest.

This decree puzzles many people. It went smoothly all the way, so why did it stop?If we don't take advantage of the situation to win more battles, then when will we wait?

Despite this confusion, the Ming army officers and soldiers were accustomed to their emperor often having unexpected orders. The final facts proved that the emperor definitely had a purpose in doing so.

And those Mughal recruits have never experienced it, but even if they have thoughts in their hearts, they dare not show it.

At this time, in the army led by Emperor Chongzhen, 3 elite cavalry were his basic base.Next came the Heshuo Special Cavalry Army led by Da Lantai, which was in the early ten thousand.There are more than [-] infantry troops from Dongwu.

For now, the worst combat power is the Mughal infantry, with a total of more than 9.

The first reason why the Mughal infantry was poor in combat effectiveness was the language barrier. They had only been under the command of Emperor Chongzhen for a few months and could only understand a little bit of Chinese.Therefore, it is very difficult to command during wartime.

The second point is that the Mughal infantry is not well equipped.The muskets they were equipped with were still very primitive arquebus guns, and the quality was uneven. It was not uncommon for them to explode on the battlefield.As for armor and the like, basically nothing.

The only advantage is that most of these Mughal infantry are the former Mughal Empire infantry, and they understand some common sense of marching and fighting, so they don't need special training.

During this break, Emperor Chongzhen gave his commander-in-chief a task, which was to reduce the Dongwu infantry to [-], and the Mughal infantry to [-].

These streamlined soldiers formed another army, which was led by Zhang Huangyan, the governor of Dongwu who followed the army, and was mainly converted into a local army.

In the successive battles in the Mughal territory, although it was not on the side of the Mughal Empire or the Ming Kingdom, there were still many people who fought back and forth, and they were scattered all over the place. Damn, I just want to be at ease.

If Emperor Chongzhen had just fought in a circle and left as he had done at the beginning.Then he won't worry about these people who are not under his jurisdiction.However, now that the Mughals are to be occupied, these people must be cleared out.He planned to hand over this task to Zhang Huangyan.

As for why they stopped at the ruins of Qunv City, it was not because they regretted that the once glorious Qunv City was destroyed by the war, but because there were two idiots in front of them plotting against the Ming army.Emperor Chongzhen didn't think about acting according to the script they had in mind, so he stopped and drained their energy first.

Anyway, as far as the current situation is concerned, Emperor Chongzhen is not in a hurry at all.At the time of rest, you can reorganize the army's combat power, stabilize the rear, and by the way, also enrich the supplies behind, why not do it?

........................

Sure enough, Emperor Chongzhen was not in a hurry, but Aurangzeb was. In other words, among the three forces, he was the most anxious.

After signing an alliance with Abbas II, Aurangzeb took Shah Jahan back to Delhi and, just like in the original history, imprisoned him opposite the Taj Mahal and kept him under strict guard.

After that, Aurangzeb himself led the army all the way east. After estimating the journey, he set up a fighting posture in the Ud area.

Although he and Abbas II agreed that the decisive battle with the Ming army would be held in Panipat, but if he ran to the west without fighting, he was afraid of pretending not to be different and being suspected by the Ming emperor.

Therefore, Aurangzeb's original plan was to pretend to drive east, pretending to rescue the east, and then encounter the Ming army. If he couldn't resist the battle, he could only retreat.In this way, the Ming army will definitely bite him all the way to the west, and this game will be considered a success.

To wipe out or drive away the Ming army as soon as possible and restore the territory of the Mughal Empire is what Aurangzeb is most anxious about.Therefore, if possible, he wished to end the war as soon as possible.

Aurangzeb's army, on the surface, put on a posture of encountering and fighting the Ming army, but was actually ready to withdraw at any time.To be honest, this pose is not easy to pose, especially if it is held for a long time, it is easy to sway the waist.

Therefore, Aurangzeb estimated that he would almost encounter it in the Ude area, so he put it here first.As a result, he had set up his posture, but he didn't see the Ming army when he waited left and right. He couldn't hold on until he couldn't hold on, so he had to send out scouts to search for traces of the Ming army to the east.

As a result, I didn't expect that the return of the horse-hunting was that the Ming army rested at the ruins of Qunv City and never came west.

This time, Aurangzeb was a little confused.

If the Ming army did not continue to advance westward, the countermeasures he had discussed with Abbas II would be useless.Didn't it come to the west aggressively, why did it stop?
What should I do next?Aurangzeb was a little undecided.

For him, the best thing to do is to lead the Ming army to the west and let Abbas II also participate in the war. It is best if they can lose more troops so that he can benefit. This is the best option. A good situation.

The next best thing is that he joined forces with Abbas II to wipe out the Ming army at a very small price.Then Abbas II complied with the agreement and returned, so that he could fight further east, regain the lost ground, realize the rejuvenation of the Mughal Empire, and even take it to a higher level.

But now, the Ming army has stopped. If he wants to face the Ming army alone, whether he can win or not is one thing. The most important thing is to let Abbas II's army sit on the mountain west of Delhi and watch the tigers fight. , he felt a little stupid, he was definitely not reconciled!
Stalemate?Aurangzeb is definitely unwilling.

How to do?
After thinking for a long time, Aurangzeb could only continue to the east, take the initiative to fight the Ming army, and then fake defeat and return to the west.

However, the further east he went, the farther he was from the predetermined battlefield, and the greater the loss he would suffer when he turned back and fled back to the west.Therefore, Aurangzeb can almost be said to go eastward with a dripping heart.

………………

Odom was left in Delhi by Aurangzeb. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen's grasp of Aurangzeb was not clear enough.However, when the Mughal Empire's Tan Ma came into contact with Damingye, he knew that Aurangzeb was still coming.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen actually had many countermeasures to choose from, all of which could make Aurangzeb very uncomfortable.

For example, if the Ming army retreated eastward, would Aurangzeb pursue it or not?If we can pursue him, what will happen to Abbas II’s ambush troops?If you don't chase after them, will you really have to watch the Ming army retreat like this?
In addition, the Ming army can still go south. Should you, Aurangzeb, pursue it or not?The reason is the same.

Of course, right here, Aurangzeb's army was severely punished. Anyway, the opponent didn't have a real fighting spirit, so he could just take this opportunity to beat him up.When Aurangzeb led the army to retreat to the west, Emperor Chongzhen did not pursue it, which was another countermeasure.

However, Emperor Chongzhen's purpose was to include Abbas II.Therefore, he did not take these countermeasures.

The rest of the Ming army ended with the approach of the Mughal Empire army.Emperor Chongzhen led the army and started acting.

Just as Aurangzeb expected, Emperor Chongzhen led the reorganized main force and took the initiative to attack, seeking a decisive battle.

When the two armies confront each other, both have thousands of troops.The huge army seems to be endless on this plain.

The imperial flag of Emperor Chongzhen was very eye-catching, and he observed the formation of the opposite army right in front of the formation of the two armies.

After scanning around, he suddenly waved his hand.A Jinyi guard next to him drove his horse forward, and went to the Mughal army on the opposite side alone.

Seeing that only one knight came out from the Ming army, Mughal certainly knew that this was a messenger, and obviously had something to say, so there was no movement, just looking at the Ming army knight, a little curious about the Ming army's presence. What do you want to say?
When they were just a stone's throw away, they saw the Ming army's royal guards reining in their horses and shouting loudly to the Mughal army: "The Ming Emperor has an edict, and the third Mughal prince Aurangzeb has come forward to listen to the edict!"

This sentence was shouted in the language of Mughal.Therefore, when you listen to it here, you will naturally understand it.They subconsciously looked towards where their prince was.

Aurangzeb, as the "Great Khan of the Mughal Empire", how could he come out to listen to the emperor's will? Isn't he inferior?However, no one can decide for him whether he will come out or not, and he can only decide for himself.

Therefore, everyone else looked at him, waiting for his opinion.

Aurangzeb said "poof" and then ordered the guards around him: "When you go to deliver the edict, just say that I have an edict and ask the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to come up and ask for the edict!"

Hearing this, his personal guards drove out immediately and also shouted loudly, telling Aurangzeb what he meant.

On the Mughal army side, after hearing this, they all laughed.It has to be said that Aurangzeb's reply was to ridicule the Ming army, and without knowing it, it improved the morale of his side a little.

Is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty an idiot? How could the Great Khan step forward to listen to his will? Don’t mean that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty will come to listen to the will of the Great Khan after hearing this!
After hearing this, the guard in Jinyi stopped talking and rode back to deliver the order to Emperor Chongzhen.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care about the ridicule in the front line. With the help of the movement just now, he had locked on Aurangzeb and "rewarded" him with a Grade A wiretapping seed. This was his purpose.As for letting Aurangzeb hear his will, there is no such thing at all!

After such a small episode, the battle between the two armies began.

On the Ming army's side, unlike before, the Hongyi artillery was pulled in front of the formation and bombarded first, preparing to break up the Mughal army's formation.The infantry advanced, the war elephants opened the way, and the cavalry pressed from both sides and launched an attack.
