Therefore, the Gur Dynasty was also very ambitious under such circumstances. In 1192, Sultan Muiz Uddin of the Gur Dynasty led an army across the Punjab and conquered India eastward. At this time, the major princes of India
Understand that if they lose this war, they will become slaves. In this case, their current superior power and quality of life will be gone, and their lives will be in danger. Therefore, after discussion, the princes of India stopped
They fought among themselves, even became a little better towards the people, and then united to resist Muiz's army.
But even though the princes of India had united, Muiz's army still brutally defeated the Indian coalition forces in the Battle of Talaroli. There were corpses everywhere, it was like a hell on earth, and there were rivers of blood everywhere.
The scene. Muiz even occupied the Delhi area, and then used this bloody war to conquer the vast area between the Ganges and Jumna rivers again. This also caused devastating consequences to the local civilians in India.
The attack caused temples everywhere to be destroyed, and although some of the high-ranking Indian princes escaped, more were killed by Muiz's army! Because the result of the war is that the victorious side will then enslave the other side.
Then he sent his general Bakhtiya Kalchi to continue the Eastern Expedition, because India seemed to have good resources, and it also seemed easier to bully. This was mainly because of the conflicts within India that had always been caused by undemocratic reasons.
, and another reason is Buddhism, which causes everyone to like to eat fast and chant Buddha's name, and there is no fighting ability at all. Although Buddhism has now begun to realize the seriousness of the matter, it has also begun to develop so-called warrior monks. Unfortunately, the current situation is not at all in India.
Under the control of all parties, and besides, the idea of Buddhism is to save all sentient beings, and it does not advocate force at all. From this, it is not difficult to see that Buddhism has also made certain concessions in order to meet the needs of war.
But even though Buddhism in India had made appropriate concessions, and the general Bakhtiya Kalchi led a large number of troops, he still conquered the northeastern part of India in 1200 and occupied Bihar and Bengal. Although
This situation was also achieved after the Indian army and high-level officials resisted very hard. However, if India loses, it will lose. It is completely unable to change the current situation in a short period of time. Therefore, this has resulted in the area north of the Deccan Plateau in India.
, all under the rule of the Gur Dynasty. In short, the common people and high-level officials in India have actually become slaves of the Gur Dynasty. The Gur Dynasty’s conquest of India paved the way for the establishment of the Delhi Sultanate.
the road.
In 1206, Sultan Muiz of the Gur dynasty, because he was not good to the common people, and the people at the top were also fighting for power, and they wanted to eat them one by one. At this point, Muiz
He was assassinated in this year, ending his life. Moreover, Muiz himself had no sons, which led to the split of the Gur Dynasty, because the inheritance rights of the throne of the Gur Dynasty were passed down from generation to generation and could not be given to outsiders.
, it can also be said that there is no such thing as democracy, so a king cannot be elected immediately. So this eventually led to the split of the Gur Dynasty, because those high-level people all wanted to be king, but the power of each was about the same.
, in the end, the only solution is to divide the country first.
The governor-general who ruled North India at this time was Muiz's former general Qutb-ud-Din Aibak. He established himself as the sultan with Delhi as the center, so he established the Delhi Sultanate. And this Delhi Sultanate is still in the history of India.
The last relatively stable regime went through five dynasties. The Slave Dynasty was from 1206 to 1290. The Kalki Dynasty was from 1290 to 1320. The Turag Dynasty was from 1206 to 1290.
The first is from 20 to 1414. The Sayyid dynasty lasted from 1414 to 1451, and the Horodi dynasty lasted from 1415 to 1526, and was finally conquered by Mozambique.
The Wol Empire was destroyed.
Then we analyze carefully. Idumis, the second sultan of the Delhi country, was hailed by later generations as the real founder of the Delhi Sultanate. He successively evaluated the rebellions of the nobles of Punjab and Bengal and the Rajput Hindu princes, and conquered the
Gwalior and Malwa areas. During the Kalki dynasty, Sultan Ala-ud-din reorganized finances and strengthened centralization. It is not difficult to see from here that they had already begun to use a centralized management model at this time, so this time
It is inevitable that it will last for a long time, because the centralized management model will only mean that the monarch has supreme power, and everyone else is his subordinate. There is no decentralization of power, and some people with power want to kill other powerful people.
A powerful person, thereby achieving his so-called ambition to become the greatest king.
Under this centralized management model, an elite cavalry force of up to 470,000 people was established. Alaa Uddin also sent troops to eliminate the forces of the Hindu princes in the Gujarat and Rajput areas.
, and then led his army to cross the Vindhia Mountains and conquered a total of four Hindu kingdoms there, which shows the strength of Ala Uddin's army. This also made the Deccan Plateau the territory of the Delhi Sultanate. Sultan Tughla in
During his reign, the Delhi Sultanate was at its peak. He also sent four large military expeditions to South India, and once occupied a large area south of the Cauvery River, increasing the number of provinces to twenty-three. However, due to his violent conquests,
It aroused strong resistance from the local people, and the army of the Delhi Sultanate was beaten by the rebels and was forced to retreat to the north of the Cauvery River. When the Delhi Sultanate was at its most powerful, its territory stretched from Bangladesh to South Dakota in the east.
The Fori River reaches the Indus River Basin in the west and the Kashmir region in the north.
The rise of the Delhi Sultanate coincided with the expansion of the Mongols, which led to the inevitable war between the two powers. In 1221, Genghis Khan led the Mongolian army to appear on the northwest border of India, and continued to
Going deep into the northwest of India, in the Sindh and Punjab regions, the Mongolian army carried out massive plunder and massacre of the local people. However, the Mongolian soldiers who came from the cold and dry Mongolian plateau were very unadapted to the hot and humid climate of India, so
The Mongolian army suffered repeated setbacks, and Genghis Khan had to withdraw. In 1279 and 1285, the Mongolian army came back again and invaded northwest India again. Sultan Ala-ud-din of the Kalki Dynasty led his army to fight the Mongols, and finally
The invading Mongol army was repelled. Some of the captured Mongol warriors settled in Delhi.
Let’s talk about something foreign. In fact, since ancient times, foreign races have been invading from the mountain passes of northwest India. After these foreign races occupied India, most of them integrated with the local residents or were assimilated over time. But the rulers of the Delhi Sultanate were not
The local Hindu culture was assimilated. The ruling class of the Kingdom of Delhi was an aristocratic group composed of Turks, Afghans and Persians with forty major families as the core military. They occupied a large amount of land and used a large number of foreign mercenaries from Central Asia.
As a pillar of rule, what kind of concept is this? In fact, this is not difficult to understand. It is mainly like a small country currently being ruled by a group of people named gods. These gods plunder all the people of the country.
Wealth, and then use some of this wealth to hire external armies everywhere, and finally beat the civilians in this country to make them obedient. This is roughly what it means.
Therefore, for the ruled classes, that is, the Hindu feudal lords and the majority of residents, high-pressure policies such as discrimination and persecution were adopted, and methods such as the imposition of poll taxes were used to stimulate the national and religious sentiments of the Indian people.
These policies of the Delhi Sultan have made the national, religious and class conflicts in the country very acute. People's uprisings and religious movements have always been ups and downs with each other, but they are basically suppressed by the high-level officials who hire troops from other places and are used to hire other people.
The money for the Chinese army was created by the people they suppressed.
This is just like the situation in many countries in the world today. The civilians create wealth, and then the senior officials use this wealth to support the soldiers. If the civilians are disobedient or do not comply with some perverted systems of the senior officials, these civilians will be
The soldiers who are supported by the wealth they create will kill civilians, which is called suppression. In other words, if these soldiers who are supported by the civilians cannot defeat the civilians, then the top management will use the wealth created by the civilians and then go to
Other countries hire troops and then suppress local civilians. This is actually not difficult to understand. We can also understand hiring troops from other countries as purchasing military equipment from other countries with the wealth created by civilians. In fact, the principle is
This is true, and most countries in the world are doing this now. It is not a single country that is doing this.
Having said that, let's look at another place where the Mongolian army fought.
Mamluk actually means slave. Since the ninth century AD, Arab traffickers have abducted or kidnapped many children from the Caucasus and Central Asia, and then transported them east to the slave markets of Baghdad, Damascus and Cairo.
Trafficking. The buyers of these Mamluks are usually Arab monarchs. They buy strong children and send them to military schools. After very strict training, they form cavalry units to protect themselves or for external use.
war. Among these small Mamluks, the Georgians from Gaosuo and the Turks from Central Asia are the most popular, because they are generally strong and brave. Even at this time, Georgians were kidnapped and sold every year
