Ning Botao's lone army was wreaking havoc in the country of Bijapur, as if they had entered an uninhabited land.
The six-nation Sudanese coalition forces were also in uninhabited territory in northern Tianzhu.
In the country of Bijapur, because its elite troops were sent away to fight, there were no available troops in the country.
And what about Tianzhu?
There is no organization at all!
Ever since the Tianzhu Cotton Association established its puppets, this country has existed in name only, and local lords have been doing their own thing. You have some private soldiers, and I have some private soldiers. Even the Tianzhu Cotton Association cannot defeat it. How can it deal with the six-nation coalition of the Green Sect?
Ningbotao almost reached the capital of Bijapur, but was forced to turn and attack its second city because of a strong wall and clear wilderness.
In the northern part of Tianzhu, it is impossible to even build a strong wall and clear the countryside.
Especially the Kingdom of Bijapur and the Kingdom of Ahmed Negal. These two countries came from the northwest, took a boat all the way south along the Heitian River, and fought like a ravaging enemy to the outside of Tongzhou City, which is far away from Wang Yuan's capital Peiyang City.
Only two hundred miles.
A large number of Hindu nobles who fled south gathered to camp near the river outside Tongzhou City, and the city's defenders refused to let them in.
The Han immigrants fled to Peiyang one after another, which can be regarded as enriching the population of the capital, and suddenly the proportion of Han people increased significantly.
"drive!"
Song Ling'er took his maid A'le and rode straight to the military camp. After giving a briefing, he was let in.
Song Ling'er threw away the riding whip and went straight into Wang Yuan's tent: "The fight hasn't started yet?"
Wang Yuan smiled and asked, "Why are you here?"
Song Ling'er said: "I originally came here with Amei (Huang E), but on the way I heard that the capital was trapped, so I hurried over on my own."
Wang Yuan said: "The capital is not trapped, it is still two hundred miles away."
"Why hasn't the fight started yet?" Song Ling'er asked.
Wang Yuan explained: "The enemy failed to attack the city several times, so they retreated ten miles and camped. They are probably waiting for reinforcements to arrive. There are six coalition forces in total, but now only two countries have come. They want to wait until everyone is gathered before attacking."
Song Ling'er said anxiously: "Then we must hurry up and not let the enemy gather troops."
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "They are not in a hurry, and I am not in a hurry either."
Song Ling'er immediately understood: "Are you attacking the opponent's reinforcements?"
"Madam is wise, hahahaha!" Wang Yuan laughed.
…
More than three hundred miles due north of Tongzhou, there was a city called Daulatabad, which was near Hyderabad in later India.
There is a small country here, and it is a green religion country. It used to be dependent on the Ananda Kingdom, but now it is dependent on the Tianzhu Kingdom.
Doesn't it feel strange?
How can a green-religious country be willing to be a Hindu disciple?
Because the founding sultan was a rebel general who stood up for himself, and at a critical moment, he stabbed the Green Religion coalition with a knife, so he had already decided on his own in the Green Religion world.
This time, the six countries came together, and the allied forces of the four countries were all stuck here, unable to move forward.
The Green Sect army attacked, and all the Hindu nobles fled. It was actually the small Green Sect country that became the mainstay. Things in the world are so fantastic and unpredictable.
In fact, the reason is very simple. The Hindu nobles can escape anywhere, but the green king has no room to escape.
Where can he go? The south is full of Hindus, there is no place for him!
He couldn't surrender either. He was a Green Traitor. In the eyes of the Sultans of the Six Nations, he was more hateful than the Hindus!
The four-nation coalition forces, with a total of more than 90,000 people, besieged the city for half a month and made no progress.
Lu Sheng, the Secretary of the Ministry of War of Tianzhu, and Yin Bingheng, the captain of the king's personal guard, led a total of three thousand cavalry and came quietly by day and night.
Cabinet minister Rama, along with his son Kapati and hundreds of cavalrymen who once accompanied him, followed Lu Sheng and Yin Bingheng. The main role of these two Indians was to act as guides because they were more familiar with the terrain.
"Report!"
"The enemy troops once stormed the city wall and were killed again."
Lu Sheng said: "Let's explore again."
Lu Shengzhen had never fought in a big battle involving tens of thousands of people. He was the son of Wang Yuan. He used to fight in naval battles, and he attacked lone ships. Later, he followed Wang Ce to establish the country in Luzon, and they mostly fought at sea, and all the land battles were to bully the natives.
, the number of commanding troops never exceeded 5,000.
This is Wang Yuan's Minister of War.
Rama suggested: "The enemy has been attacking the city for many days but has been unable to break it. The morale must be very low. How about we look for opportunities and sneak attack the enemy camp at night?"
Lu Sheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, just wait slowly."
When he was young, Rama followed King Krishna and defeated the Sudanese coalition forces in various ways. He was a strong general who climbed out of the dead. In terms of military literacy, he far surpassed Lu Sheng. He couldn't help but said anxiously: "What are you waiting for? Wait for the enemy.
The army defeated the city, morale was greatly boosted, and there was an additional city as a stronghold?"
Lu Sheng sneered and said: "Your Majesty said that we must wait until the city is defeated before attacking."
Rama looked at Lu Sheng in shock, and suddenly remembered the Chinese proverb said by his son: Don't allow others to snore on the side of the bed!
The small Green Sect country in front of us has obviously been attached to Tianzhu for a long time and is obviously the strongest resistance force this time.
But in Wang Yuan's heart, this country must perish. He would not allow a green religion country to exist hundreds of miles away from the capital. Although this country is very small, only equivalent to a state capital in the Ming Dynasty, it is also absolutely loyal.
He may have betrayed Wang Yuan and defected to the Sudan.
Wang Yuan wanted to let the Sudanese coalition forces kill this small country and then come out to clean up the mess. Otherwise, he would have no excuse to attack "his own people".
More than three thousand musketeers remained dormant, watching the Sudanese coalition forces break through the city.
Their sentries have telescopes that allow them to observe from a distance, and they are not afraid of being discovered by the Sudanese coalition forces.
After another two days, the coalition forces finally boarded the tower again.
The defenders in the city were already exhausted and suffered extremely heavy casualties, and could no longer drive the enemy back.
The city is destroyed and the country is destroyed.
The Sudanese coalition forces entered the city and massacred the people who also believed in the Green Religion, and they did so even more ruthlessly than they massacred the Hindus. Firstly, they hated the traitors, and secondly, they vented their anger. In order to conquer the city, they sacrificed nearly ten thousand people.
of casualties.
Holding a telescope in hand, Rama looked at the fire in the city and felt various emotions in his heart.
The new king of Tianzhu was so ruthless that in order to eliminate hidden dangers, tens of thousands of people in the city were buried with him. They could have rescued the city, and the enemy army was defenseless!
At the same time, Rama felt grateful and scared at the same time.
Fortunately, he donated the city and land early. Otherwise, his territory is closer to the capital city of Peiyang. Would he be able to win over Wang Yuan in the future?
The Sudanese coalition forces burned, killed, and looted the city for a whole day, almost razing the city to the ground, and only a few hundred Green Sect people were killed in the city.
Even the coalition generals were unable to rein in the army because the soldiers had already gone crazy.
Until midnight, the fire was not completely extinguished.
There was no place for people to live in the city, and only 100,000 of the Four Nations Allied Forces were still camped outside the city. And even after nightfall, the allied army camp was still in a mess because they were too excited, and the officers were still forcing the soldiers to surrender.
Robbed property.
Night attack?
No need, because there is a better time.
Through several days of continuous observation, Lu Sheng discovered that the enemy soldiers prayed every day and calculated the time extremely accurately.
One day at noon, when the coalition forces were about to attack the city wall, the entire army withdrew to engage in worship activities.
Lu Sheng ordered all the soldiers to rest, and only asked more than ten people to take turns to watch the night, and each soldier on the night watch had a pocket watch.
Before dawn, more than 3,000 cavalrymen were awakened, bound their feet and marched towards the enemy's camp.
At dawn, the enemy camp was noisy.
We were too excited the night before and were searched for loot by officers, so we all didn't sleep well. We were woken up again at dawn, and all of them were sleepy-eyed, yawning and ran to do morning rituals.
Just when the coalition forces were about to worship, and the sky was still dark, more than 3,000 fire gun cavalry suddenly came out.
Moreover, he didn't even bother to use the fire blunderbuss and just rushed over with his saber.
