"What? The Ming army is chasing you?" Aurangzeb was shocked when he heard the news, but then he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he glared fiercely and shouted sternly, "Now that I'm here, I will fight you to the death.
I don’t believe it anymore, so what are you using to attack with fire?”
In the battle at Bhagalpur, he was really unwilling to lose, and was actually burned to death by the Ming army!
Aurangzeb was suffocating in his heart, thinking that if he fought in an upright manner, with his military commanding skills, he would never lose like this!
What he never expected was that while he was thinking about it, the subordinate who reported the news quickly corrected him: "Your Majesty, it is not the Ming army from Bhagalpur, but the Ming army from the west!"
After hearing this, Aurangzeb immediately frowned and asked in confusion: "West, where did the Ming army come from in the west?"
The Ming army in Bhagalpur, even at flying speed, would not be able to bypass Allahabad and emerge from the west.
Therefore, for a while, he couldn't turn around and was a little confused.
"Your Majesty, this seems to be another Ming army with different flags. They are all cavalry!"
"What?" Aurangzeb asked in shock when he heard this, "Another Ming army, all cavalry?"
If this was really the case, he couldn't imagine how difficult the prospect he would face would become!
Therefore, Aurangzeb had to verify whether there were other Ming armies in the Mughal Empire! Unable to wait for a reply, he hurried out of the temporary camp and rushed to the city to see the situation.
.
Along the way, the soldiers of the Mughal Empire saw their emperor approaching in a hurry and knelt down to salute. However, Aurangzebul ignored them and just hurried to the top of the city.
When he arrived at the top of the city, he saw a huge Ming cavalry army resting far outside the city. Without carefully distinguishing it, he could conclude that this army was definitely not the Ming army from Bhagalpur.
!
Because the Ming army over there didn't have that many cavalry at all, let alone the cavalry in front of them, which actually had one man and two horses!
At this time, under the city of Allahabad, there were local troops who hurriedly hid after seeing the arrival of the Ming army, or they were local strong men. Without Aurangzeb's consent, they were not qualified to enter the city.
.
When these Mughals saw Aurangzeb appearing on the city top, they started a commotion and shouted quickly, asking His Majesty the Emperor to let them enter the city.
However, they did not know that the reason why Aurangzeb did not allow these newly arrived troops to enter the city was because the city was also in chaos. The soldiers who escaped with Aurangzeb and the soldiers who arrived later were all lost.
Those who have been established are being reorganized. If new arrivals enter the city again, it will easily cause chaos and delay the progress of reorganizing the army.
By this time, the Ming army had already attacked, and Aurangzeb was even more unlikely to allow the local troops outside the city to enter the city. Instead, he ordered them to rely on the city walls to defend themselves.
Afterwards, he didn't care about the troops under the city at all, and just asked his men: "Where did these Ming troops come from? How come there are so many cavalry?"
However, no one could answer his question.
If it were normal, after the Ming army captured Agra, the news would be spread in all directions with Agra as the center. However, Li Yan led the army to march eastward at night and starry, and the marching speed exceeded the speed of news transmission, so there was no news here at all.
Received news from the west.
However, they did not wonder for long when they saw a group of cavalry from the Ming army in the distance suddenly leaving the group and heading towards the city. The two people walking in front were obviously not in Ming army uniforms, but in Mogul uniforms.
Her clothes are very eye-catching.
After stopping just a stone's throw away from the city, I heard one of the Mughals holding something like a morning glory and shouting to the top of the city: "The Ming army has captured Agra, Moghul."
The Wol Empire is about to end, surrender..."
Upon hearing this shouting, everyone who heard it was stunned.
The capital city was captured by the Ming army? How is this possible!
This news is absolutely a bolt from the blue!
The Mughals could not hear clearly what was said next, and as soon as they reacted, they all questioned the authenticity of this statement.
Aurangzeb had a bad premonition in his heart. He felt that the news was true, but he could not accept it and did not dare to let his men accept the fact that the capital was lost.
Therefore, he immediately asked his men to announce that the Ming army was just intimidating and demoralizing!
However, before Aurangzeb's words spread throughout the city, a Ming army suddenly took out something, put it on a special stick, raised it high, and displayed it in front of everyone.
Under the sunlight, the thing can be seen very clearly, especially one point, which reflects the sunlight and is even more dazzling.
When Aurangzeb saw it, he was shocked and turned pale!
Because that thing is none other than the crown of the Mughal Emperor!
Moreover, this crown is very special. It was made by Shah Jahan for his great achievements.
The reason why it is said to be very special is because Shah Jahan obtained a very large diamond called the "Mountain of Light", so he made this crown, and the largest diamond was set in the center of the crown.
In its original history, this "Mountain of Light" finally fell into the hands of the British in 1849 and became part of the British Crown in later generations, weighing 105.6 carats.
In this dimension, Aurangzeb succeeded in usurping the throne, and the crown naturally fell into his hands. However, he immediately led troops to fight again. As a prince who has led troops in wars for a long time, he is used to a military career. This is a grand costume.
A part of it was left by him in the Agra Palace.
But now that the Ming army has obtained this unique crown, there is only one possibility: the Ming army really captured Agra and obtained this crown from the palace!
This conclusion was not only reached by Aurangzeb. After others understood this, the doubts in the city slowly disappeared, and everyone looked at the glorious crown that belonged to the Mughal Empire.
Everyone in the palace was dumbfounded and silent.
The army of one million people was defeated and defeated thousands of miles away. Even the capital of the empire was captured by the Ming army. No matter what the news was, it was an unbearable blow to them!
At this time, the Mughals, including Kui Yi who rushed to the top of the city, all stared blankly at the Ming army soldier outside the city holding up the crown and showing off his power!
The two Mughals continued to shout at the top of the city, basically the Mughal Empire was finished, and surrendering immediately was the right choice!
Although there were so many people on and off the city of Allahabad, there were only two voices urging surrender. It was very quiet!
After a long time, Aurangzeb came to his senses and immediately shouted in anger: "Shoot arrows, shoot arrows, shoot these bright dogs to death for me!"
After hearing his order, the guards around him were the first to come to their senses and started shooting arrows one after another. As for the muskets, they were all muskets, and their accuracy was not good at all, but they were so angry that they started shooting one after another.
Already.
This group of Ming troops immediately retreated, and after they retreated far away, they wandered around again, with the intention of humiliating them, but it should not be too obvious.
But what can they do?
After a period of commotion, the Ming army soldiers returned to camp.
As they left, Allahabad finally stopped.
It was fine when it didn't stop, but when it stopped, these Mughals were going up and down, and they suddenly remembered the defeat of Bhagalpur and the fall of Agra, and their morale suddenly dropped to the extreme.
Even if Aurangzeb issued a decree and repeatedly emphasized that the crown of the Ming army was a forgery, it would not help!
No one is a fool. The Ming army appeared from the west, and it was an unexpected army. This already meant a lot.
The appearance of the crown, combined with other things, anyone who is not a fool can actually know what is going on!
When the morale of an army is very low, unpredictable situations often occur.
Outside the city of Allahabad, there was a local army encamped against the city wall. Under the night, no one knew what it was, and suddenly a commotion broke out.
One of the soldiers must have had a nightmare, dreaming that the Ming army was attacking the camp, and suddenly he screamed.
When the Mughal soldiers beside him heard in their sleep that the Ming army was attacking the camp, they immediately exploded and ran away.
As they ran, they took the soldiers in the surrounding tents with them!
Just like that, the camp roar happened!
Under normal circumstances, if a camp roar occurs, it can still be controlled if the soldiers on duty suppress it in time.
However, if you generally fail to respond in time and allow the camp roar to spread, it will definitely be a disaster for the army.
It is very regrettable that the soldiers on duty in these local armies were actually frightened. When the camp roar happened, they did not think it was the camp roar at all, but it was really possible that they were attacked by the Ming army at night.
After all, His Majesty the Emperor's million-strong army was defeated by the Ming army's night attack.
Therefore, when the soldiers on duty saw the chaos, instead of suppressing it, they ran away immediately. As a result, the scale of the camp roar rapidly expanded, and eventually the entire camp outside the city was affected.
There were Mughal soldiers running around everywhere, and I don’t know how many people died in the stampede. Not to mention, some soldiers drew their swords when they saw others blocking their way to escape.
The soldiers on duty at the top of the city of Allahabad did not think that there was a camp roar outside the city at all. Instead, they thought that the Ming army had really attacked at night again. The top of the city was also in chaos. There was no one under the city.
The few soldiers who suffered casualties were all the work of the soldiers on the city walls.
