The altitude of the Eastern Ghats is generally not high. The best peaks are only more than a thousand meters above sea level, and most of the rest are about 700 to 800 meters above sea level. But this does not mean that this mountain range is small. It is 1600 meters long from north to south.
It is more than a hundred miles long, and the widest point from east to west is nearly four hundred miles, which is not inferior to any mountain range.
However, the location of the city of Delhi is due to the narrowness of the mountains. The Delhi Gorge runs through the east and west sides of the mountains and is no more than a hundred miles long. However, the mountains here are densely forested, and the deep gorges and cliffs make it the most complex and steep terrain in the entire Eastern Ghats.
, where the trees are most dense.
Because of this, there are many birds and animals in the forests on the mountains here, and large prey such as tigers and elephants come and go here. Therefore, this is indeed a good place for hunting. Of course, this refers to hunting in the literal sense.
For King Krishna of Kala, his hunting plan will also begin here. What he wants to hunt is not wild beasts and tigers, but the Protector of the Ming Dynasty and his entourage.
Krishna decided to comply with the opinions of the princes and his son Nehru, and take advantage of the fact that the Ming Dynasty was weakened after defeating the Falangji people to completely regain the two ports. The Falangji people got out, and the Ming Dynasty
People want to occupy their own ports, which is impossible. Taking advantage of the fact that the people of the Ming Dynasty are not strong, they can solve this problem in one fell swoop.
From Krishna's point of view, there is no problem for him to do this. This is exactly what a promising king should do. Recovering the land occupied by others and getting rid of the slavery of other countries is a just action.
The opportunity is right now.
Of course, Krishna still had some other ideas after arriving in Delhi. He felt that maybe the Ming Dynasty was different from the Francois, and they might not have any intention of occupying the port. Maybe negotiation could be used this time
To take back the port in the form of compensation. If war can be avoided and enemies of the Ming Dynasty can be avoided, then it is naturally the best strategy.
However, during today's meeting, when Zhang Yanling made those demands, Krishna felt humiliated, and he completely lost his illusions about the people of the Ming Dynasty.
The people of the Ming Dynasty were more tyrannical and barbaric than the Flemish people, and the conditions they proposed were even more rude. How could the Protector of the Ming Dynasty dare to say those conditions? Who gave him such courage? In their eyes,
With a population of tens of millions under his rule, a hundred thousand elite troops, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers from various tribes, is the Garo Kingdom just like meat on the chopping block? Let them slaughter it?
Krishna didn't even think of refuting because he felt there was no need.
This time, he brought 20,000 elite guards with him. Although there were only more than 200 elite guards around him, the rest were already in the wilderness outside Delhi. They were on standby to intercept and kill at any time.
Ming Dynasty people.
Of course, Krishna didn't want to make a big show of action. It would be better to force the Ming Dynasty's princes and their entourage into a desperate situation without anyone noticing, and then solve the matter in a low-key manner.
.
In doing so, of course, he did not want to arouse too much anger in the Ming Dynasty and leave some room for the follow-up. His goal was to take back Guri and the port of Goa, not to anger the people of the Ming Dynasty and make them fight against him. The people of the Ming Dynasty
It's no joke that the ironclad ship can defeat the Eastern Fleet of the Folangji. If it really angers them,
Krishna's plan was to trap Zhang Yanling and others so that they could not escape. Under desperate circumstances, he forced the Duke of Ming Dynasty to agree to return the two ports and lead his army to leave.
The best result is that the other party can agree to do this, so there is no need to bleed to death, and there is no need to completely fall out with the powerful Ming Empire. But if the other party does not know how to praise, then killing him will be a last resort. After killing him, the Ming Dynasty will
The army has lost its commander. The army can move in and recapture the port.
In short, this operation must achieve its goal.
…
In the late afternoon, Zhang Yanling and his entourage, together with King Krishna and his entourage, left the east city of Delhi and marched along the steep slope on the hillside toward the canyon.
Krishna had begun to deliberately keep a distance from Zhang Yanling and others. The soldiers and horses of both sides were divided into two parts, and their respective soldiers and horses marched surrounded by their leaders. Krishna and more than a hundred guards walked in front, and Zhang Yanling and others walked behind.
, and finally more than a hundred Garo soldiers cut off the rear.
In fact, this is an encirclement formation. Two centurions, one behind the other, sandwich Zhang Yanling and others. It is said to be protection, but in fact it is to prevent Zhang Yanling and others from escaping.
Climbing up the slope and entering the canyon, I immediately felt that the temperature suddenly cooled down. Compared with the heat of the afternoon outside, the canyon was like paradise.
But I saw a mountain road in the canyon winding from the side of the mountain to the point where I could not see it. The mountain road was rugged and less than two feet wide, and could only accommodate two carriages and horses. One side of the mountain road was close to the mountain, and one side faced a deep ravine. Below it
The trees are lush and deep, and occasionally water light can be seen.
This is a typical canyon topography. Water accumulates in the canyon, forming a deep ravine terrain. Along the ravine is the passage leading to the east exit. The naturally formed passage has been artificially repaired, and it has become an east-west crossing.
The passage through the mountains. Over time, as cars and horses passed through it, it became an important thoroughfare for transportation.
The team walked along the canyon road and along the deep ravine for half an hour, and entered the canyon more than ten miles deep. Two high mountains lay across the front. From the canyon, they looked towering and majestic.
The two mountains look like they were originally connected, but were finally torn apart. The canyon in the middle passes between the cliffs on both sides, and it looks like there are two gates to heaven standing on both sides.
The straight cliffs are covered with weeds, moss and trees. On the high side of the mountain wall in the south, a waterfall flows down from the top. The water roars and the mist rolls, which is very magnificent.
This kind of scenery aroused everyone's admiration. Even Zhang Yanling was also amazed.
Krishna's team in front stopped. Krishna returned to the back of the team, saluted Zhang Yanling from a distance, and laughed loudly: "Zhang Guogong, how is the scenery here in our Jialuo Kingdom?"
Zhang Yanling sat on the horse and said loudly: "It's a marvelous workmanship, and it's so beautiful. Your country's mountains and rivers are magnificent and breathtaking."
Krishna laughed loudly and said: "Thank you for the compliment. I dare say that the scenery of our country of Gara is not comparable to the mountains and rivers anywhere in the world."
Zhang Yanling thought: It turns out that the strong self-confidence of the Asan people is not like this in later generations, but has always been like this. Although this kind of scenery is magnificent, among the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty, ordinary ones can no longer be ordinary. The three mountains and five mountains are full of beautiful scenery.
.But there is no need to argue with him about this.
"Hahaha, I think so too. The scenery of Jialuo Kingdom is unparalleled, it's like heaven." Zhang Yanling said.
Krishna said proudly: "Mr. Zhang knows his stuff. These two mountains are very famous. According to legend, Shiva, the ancient emperor of the Kala Kingdom, visited the mountains and rivers and saw that the mountains and rivers here were silted up and the water and land were not smooth. Therefore, he was attracted by
With divine power, thunder split the mountain and opened the canyon.
Passage. Thunder caused mountain fires, and the valley was filled with fireworks. Lord Shiva dug out a spring, and used a waterfall to drop the sacred water to extinguish the flames in the valley. Therefore, the two mountains became like this. That waterfall
It’s just a waterfall left behind. It has no roots and no source, and it lasts all year round.”
Zhang Yanling nodded and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it has a background. No wonder it is so miraculous and amazing. The local history also has a long history, which is comparable to that of the Ming Dynasty."
"Our history is longer than yours. Hehe, let's not talk about that. In other words, it is precisely because our country of Garo has such magnificent mountains and rivers that it has attracted the covetousness of many people. Everyone wants to take it as their own." Clichy
Na said in a deep voice.
Zhang Yanling smiled and said: "His Majesty the King seems to be quite emotional."
Krishna was shocked to realize that he had made a mistake. He quickly smiled and pointed to the forest trees next to him and said, "Mr. Zhang, go up the mountain from here. There are many wild animals on this mountain. Our hunting starts from here."
Zhang Yanling looked in the direction of his finger and saw a mountain road winding up the hillside among the trees, leading to the depths of the dense forest. If it hadn't been for Kok Krishna's guidance, he would not have discovered that this road led to the high mountains and dense forests.
principle.
"Very good, everything will follow the arrangements of His Majesty the King." Zhang Yanling said with a smile.
Krishna nodded and said: "Very good. Mr. Zhang, there are many ferocious beasts on this mountain. There may be danger. Mr. Zhang must obey his command and follow his own pace in everything. Otherwise, I am afraid there may be danger."
.”
Zhang Yanling said with a smile: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I am not new to the world. I am not afraid of monsters, monsters, mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Am I still afraid of tigers, leopards, bears and wolves? Of course I will obey your orders. You
You tell us how we hunt, and we hunt."
Krishna smiled and nodded and said: "That's good. Then let's go up the mountain. Halfway up the mountain is an excellent place for hunting. I have been here before. It will be getting late today, so I can only go up the mountain to camp first. There is a flat land halfway up the mountain.
, we can set up camp first. Early tomorrow morning, we will officially start hunting. What do you think, the Duke?"
Zhang Yanling cupped his hands and said, "Just follow your orders."
Krishna nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and ordered: "Go up the mountain."
