The Mughal emperor, who was forced into exile, finally defeated his two brothers and unified Afghanistan.
Then, Humayun launched an eastern expedition, quickly captured Multan, then sent his troops to capture Lahore, and then fought all the way to Punjab.
These areas are nominally Wang Yuan's territory and must provide tax revenue to the central government every year.
Wang Yuan was a tolerant and benevolent king. The entire northern region of India only needed to provide a small amount of taxes and did not send officials to manage the princely states. The princely states were still attacking each other, and the Green Sect and the Hindus were vendetta against each other. Everything
The chaos was all carried out with Wang Yuan's tacit approval.
Except when paying taxes every year, Wang Yuan's presence is almost invisible in the northern kingdoms.
Even taxes started to fall into arrears, always finding various excuses.
Exchange good books. Follow now to receive cash red envelopes!
Now facing the Mughal invasion, they finally remembered that there was another king, and sent messengers to Peiyang to request reinforcements.
Wang Yuan was not in a hurry and slowly mobilized his troops and generals.
Facts have proved that the northern states are a bunch of waste. In just three months, Humayun ate the entire Punjab and even occupied the city of Delhi. This guy dared to announce that he would move the capital to Delhi.
After hearing the news that Humayun had moved the capital, Wang Yuan finally ordered an attack.
Qi Jiguang led a partial division of 5,000 troops, landed at Derba (near Gwadar Port) by boat, and attacked from south to north to block Humayun's retreat.
Yin Bingheng led an army of 8,000 people, landed in Bengal by boat, and sailed upstream to prevent Humayun from continuing to expand eastward.
Wang Fang led five thousand cavalry from Rajput to raid the areas around Delhi.
how to say?
Qi Jiguang and Yin Bingheng were still on their way, while Wang Fang was already fighting with Humayun.
Humayun personally led an army of 30,000 people to face Wang Fang in the southern suburbs of Delhi. He was defeated by 5,000 brother musketeers and the entire army collapsed.
Humayun retreated to Delhi with his remaining troops, and Wang Fang's cavalry was unable to attack the city. Both sides continued to waste their lives like this.
The consumption came and went, but Humayun was the first to be unable to hold on.
Humayun expanded too fast and moved the capital very hastily. There were not many military ration reserves in Delhi.
The northern princes were afraid of Humayun's invasion, and seeing that Wang Fang had just won a great victory, they came over with food and grass to support them. A month later, the princes alone gathered 40,000 troops, and then began a farce-like siege.
Although Wang Yuan allowed the northern states to have autonomy, he did not allow them to possess firearms. He would beat anyone found with firearms.
In the absence of artillery, the Tuban soldiers climbed up the city on ladders and retreated after a few casualties. The siege of the city for more than half a month had no effect.
"Surrender." Humayun was disheartened.
Byram admonished: "Your Majesty, we haven't failed yet, why should we surrender?"
Humayun pointed to the south of the city: "The enemy's muskets are too powerful, and the cavalry fights bravely. Five thousand brave cavalry, equipped with fierce muskets, are impossible to defeat. We pursue, they run away, we retreat, they fight back,
How to fight in a field battle?"
Byram said: "We can break out and withdraw to Afghanistan first. Afghanistan has many mountains and few flat lands, making it difficult for the opponent's cavalry to deploy. At that time, we can work hard in Afghanistan and send people to learn to make this new type of musket. We are equipped with the new type of musket.
Come back and fight again."
Humayun remained silent.
"Your Majesty, make a decision as soon as possible!" Byram said.
Bairam had followed Babur very early, and after Babur's death, he followed Humayun. He had been loyal and accomplished countless feats for many years.
This man was both civil and military. In history, when Humayun restored the country, it was Bairam who led the battles. Later, he assisted Akbar and became the prime minister of the Mughal Empire.
When Akbar became an adult, he took charge of the palace himself. He felt that Bairam was too annoying, so he asked Bairam to go on a pilgrimage to Mecca.
This was tantamount to a disguised form of exile, but Bairam, as prime minister, regent and emperor's advisor, handed over military and political power without saying a word. After such a straightforward handover of power, Akbar still did not let him go and sent people to
Bayram was assassinated during the pilgrimage.
Humayun was still hesitant. He had such an indecisive character. He could be described as the Mughal version of Song Huizong.
Byram said: "Your Majesty, when we were exiled in Persia, didn't we fight back? Now, at least we still have Afghanistan!"
Humayun finally clenched his fists: "Yes, we still have Afghanistan!"
More than ten years ago, when he was exiled from India to Persia, it was Bairam who encouraged him all the way and made suggestions to recruit foreign troops.
That night, Humayun led his troops to break through.
Bairam, who was unparalleled in loyalty and bravery, first led five hundred cavalry from the east of the city and raided the camp of the Turkish federal army. After causing chaos, Humayun took his wife and children and fled from the west of the city in the dark.
Wang Fang fell into the trap because he underestimated the enemy and led his troops to the east of the city to rescue him. Unexpectedly, Humayun escaped from the west of the city.
In order to delay the emperor's escape, Byram did not retreat immediately after disrupting the camp in the east of the city, but went to attack the camp in the north of the city. Finally, he was caught by Wang Fang's cavalry, and nearly a hundred people were killed and injured in an instant.
At this time, Bairam was still thinking about the emperor and deliberately led Wang Fang to the northeast.
It's a pity that the cavalry under Byram's command are not as loyal and brave as him.
Some of these cavalry are persecuted green Sufis in Persia, and some are Turkic descendants recruited in Afghanistan. They dare to go out to attack the camp, and they have done their best. Now they have to cover the emperor's retreat?
One after another, the cavalry broke away from the team and disappeared into the wilderness.
By daybreak, there were only six riders left around Byram, all of whom were loyal and loyal people who were not afraid of death.
Looking at the rushing water of the Ganges in front of him, Bairam said to his subordinates: "You surrender, the emperor will take care of your families."
The six cavalrymen looked at each other, but in the end their desire for survival prevailed. They threw away their weapons, dismounted, and knelt on the ground.
Wang Fang's cavalry had already dispersed, blocking Byram's path. He said coldly: "Dismount and surrender!"
Byram threw away his weapon and said provocatively: "You have been chasing me all night, and the emperor has already broken through."
Wang Fang was indeed very angry, but he did not hesitate to say: "Halfway through the chase, I realized something was wrong. I have already separated three thousand horses to chase your emperor westward. Maybe I have caught up with you now."
Byram smiled and said: "If you can't catch up, His Majesty gave up all his luggage, not even his beloved Persian painter."
He was worthy of being the Mughal version of Song Huizong. When he was in exile in Persia, he did not forget to appreciate art. When Humayun returned from the killings, he took two Persian painters with him and followed him wherever he went.
Humayun's death in history was also ridiculous.
Sher Shah was killed by an artillery blast, while Humayun was observing the sky at night. He suddenly felt the call of God and climbed to the roof to pray. He stepped on his own skirt and fell down to his death.
Wang Fang smiled and said: "Even if I can't catch up, your emperor can't escape. At this moment, it is estimated that the Tianzhu army has occupied Multan and is just waiting for your emperor to throw himself into a trap."
Byram's expression finally changed drastically, and he sighed: "No wonder, except for your cavalry, the rest of the troops outside the city of Delhi are all the armies of the princely states."
Wang Fang said: "You are also a loyal person. I can't bear to kill you. Come with me back to see His Majesty."
Byram asked: "If I surrender to your king, can you spare my emperor's death?"
"I have no right to promise such a thing," Wang Fang said, "but, if you want to submit to His Majesty, His Majesty will be willing to accept you. You must learn to speak Chinese, write Chinese characters, and give up your original beliefs."
"Then I'd better die. Drive!"
As he spoke, Bairam turned the horse's head and rushed towards the Ganges with a whip, hoping to drown both man and horse in the Ganges.
"Hissing!"
Rushing to the edge of the Ganges River, the war horse suddenly braked suddenly, and the man stood up and forced it to stop, obviously not wanting to accompany Bairam to die.
Byram fell to the ground, was beaten to pieces, and was tied up in the blink of an eye.
Byram asked: "Why don't you let me die?"
Wang Fang pouted: "The teachings of your religion do not allow believers to commit suicide. You have violated the teachings, so just change to another religion. I like your loyalty and your willingness to accept death."
Wang Fang returned to Delhi with his cavalry, and then marched into Punjab.
The cities of Punjab that had just been captured by Humayun faced Wang Fang's thousands of cavalry and surrendered without any psychological burden.
By the time Yin Bingheng's 8,000-strong army arrived by boat along the Ganges River, Wang Fang had already recaptured the entire Punjab, and Yin Bingheng had gained nothing from this dispatch.
However, Qi Jiguang gained a lot. He made a surprise attack on the city of Multan and captured the city with single-digit casualties.
Having just captured the city in the evening, Humayun arrived the next morning.
The emperor was chased by cavalry all the way. Most of the troops fled, and even one of his wives was missing. He finally escaped from the pursuers and arrived at his own city. He immediately rushed to the city gate in person and called the gate, but was caught by Qi Jiguang's soldiers.
With.
Wang Yuan did not kill Humayun, but left his family in Peiyang.
Doesn't this guy love art?
Chinese culture is extensive and profound, and Chinese art is also brilliant, enough for this guy to study for a lifetime.
The Mughal Empire was reduced to the Mughal County and became a vassal state of Tianzhu, and still ruled Afghanistan.
Humayun and his son Akbar were left in Peiyang to study Han culture. Wang Yuan sent several disciples of the Jishi sect to Afghanistan to help govern the country. As soon as they went there, they announced that they would be frivolous and have low taxes. Local grassroots officials and nobles will definitely continue to do so.
Exploiting the people, but this is none of the business of Han officials.
At this point, Afghanistan was also brought under Wang Yuan's rule, but it still had a high degree of autonomy and could only collect a little tax every year.
Yin Bingheng's eight thousand army was not in a hurry to come back, but instead went to attack Assam.
Of course, before the arrival of the British colonists, there was no name for "Assam". It was always called "Ahoma Kingdom", and its Chinese name was "Ahong Kingdom".
Three hundred years ago, a group of Shan people, riding elephants and war horses, crossed the mountain pass from Myanmar and established the Ahoma Kingdom in northeastern India.
The Shan people are called the Shan people in Myanmar, the Dai people in China, and the Assam people in India.
The Ahoma Dynasty has always had exchanges with Yunnan and Tibet. During the Qing Dynasty, it began to mint currency, and the words on its coins turned out to be the Chinese word "treasure". After more than three hundred years of rule, the common language here has become Dai, and some nobles also
Can speak the southwestern Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty.
In history, the Mughal Empire attacked the Ahoma Kingdom seventeen times, but all failed.
Until the middle of the Qing Dynasty, religious conflicts arose within the country, and different Hindu sects fought. Burma (Konbang Dynasty) took advantage of the situation and annexed it. The British forced the Burmese government to cede the Assam region, which inexplicably finally became India.
land.
After Wang Yuan came to Tianzhu, he was looking for Assam because he knew Assam black tea and knew that it was an important tea producing area in India.
After all these years, one can probably guess that the Ahoma dynasty should be Assam.
Yin Bingheng's expedition to Ahoma this time actually has nothing to say. Although two-thirds of the country is hilly, the Tianzhu army does not need to drill into the mountains at all.
The Ganges and Jamuna rivers intersect, and the section where they merge into the sea is called the Bodo River.
The army returned to the original route by boat and headed north at the intersection of the two rivers. By boat, they could reach the capital of the Ahoma Kingdom.
The elite part of the Ahoma Kingdom is located in the river valley, and the capital is also on the riverside.
Pull the heavy artillery on the ship to the shore, fire it at the city wall, and then use the musketeers to rush in, easily occupy the capital, and capture the king at the same time.
Then he issued an order in the name of the king, declaring the Ahoma Kingdom to be merged into the Tianzhu Kingdom, and officially establishing the Ahong Province.
Wang Yuan would not allow this place to be autonomous because it is suitable for transplanting tea trees and can communicate with Yunnan - it is bordering at this time.
There is no need for large-scale immigration. The official language here is Dai, and most of them are from Southeast Asian and southwest China ethnic groups. Just set up schools and spread Chinese culture here just like educating compatriots in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan.
