Chapter 746: Derry Falls

In the South Asian subcontinent, the Mughal Empire in India, the city of Delhi, the capital was surrounded by servants wrapped in turbans all over the mountains and fields. The defenders looked pale at the densely packed enemy troops.

The high-caste feudal lord of the Mughal Empire in India was besieged by low-caste soldiers.

However, it was not this group of low-caste soldiers who took the initiative to rebel against the feudal lord. They were driven by Timur from the Chagatai Khanate to attack Delhi!

Timur did as the Romans did, wearing a turban, sitting on the wooden tower of a huge iron-clad war elephant, looking up at the city wall of Derry, with sharp eyes.

The level of Delhi City, like Chang'an City, surpassed the giant city.

If you want to capture Delhi, you can only rely on crowd tactics!

"Taking Derry, let the nobles in Derry submit to me!"

Timur pulled out his golden sword, and hundreds of thousands of servants were like locusts. Wherever they went, there was no grass growing, and they attacked Delhi from all directions!

Hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder carried simple ladders to climb the huge city wall of Derry, and the black wave flooded Derry!

Catapults and ballistas on the city wall threw stones and arrows at the cannon fodder, and the cannon fodder rolled down from the ladder, screaming.

This group of cannon fodder brandished swords and most of them were not even equipped with armor. Driven by Mongolian cavalry and Turkic cavalry, they attacked the city of Derry at all costs!

However, Timur turned a blind eye. He led the Mongolian cavalry and urged hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder to attack the city with sabers.

"Damn, why did the Mongols come to our Delhi!?"

The feudal aristocrats of Delhi were blocked in the city, and the low-caste soldiers they usually looked down upon, like an ant colony, climbed up the city wall of Delhi to kill them!

Timur is an outsider, but he wants to replace the nobles of Delhi and become the new ruler!

Timur has the ability to drive the servant army, and he is like a fish in water in the populous South Asian subcontinent!

In the South Asian subcontinent, the most important thing here is population!

Part of the defenders of Derry City were transferred to the Deccan Plateau to participate in the war. At this time, there were only more than 100,000 defenders left!

Outside the city of Delhi, there are half a million cannon fodder, as well as 100,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry brought by Timur!

Among the 600,000 troops, the Mongols and Turks who were ordered by Wo Kuotai to surprise Derry were the most powerful!

When the Mughal Empire in India thought that the target of Timur's attack was the Kushan Empire, Timur suddenly moved to Delhi and approached the city!

The tragic siege battle lasted for three days, and the corpses piled up more than ten meters below the city wall, which was as high as the city wall. Of the 500,000 cannon fodder, 200,000 died below the city!

More than 100,000 Delhi defenders, 70,000 were killed!

"The defenders in Delhi are exhausted. Our Mongolian army and Seljuk Turkic army are ready to attack the city."

Timur waved his hand, and one hundred thousand Mongolian and Turkic cavalry dismounted, formed a square formation, and attacked the city on foot.

"Before the official siege, send envoys into the city of Derry and ask them to surrender, otherwise the day the city is broken is also the time to massacre the city!"

Timur's envoys entered Delhi, and the feudal nobles in Delhi could already see menacing Mongolian and Turkic soldiers on the damaged walls.

"Derry City has a population of several million. Could it be that Timur wanted to kill millions of people when he massacred the city?!"

"Timerer is bloodthirsty, he is like a devil from hell, maybe he will really massacre the city!"

The nobles of Derry City were terrified. Under the pressure of the Mongolian and Turkic troops, their determination to stick to Derry City was shaken.

Surrender to Timur, and you can keep your glory and wealth, otherwise, if Delhi is captured by Timur's servants, then the entire city of Delhi will be wiped off the map by Timur!

"These guys are dying, and they still haven't opened the door to surrender. Let the cowardly Delhi people see the archery skills of our Mongols and Turks!"

Timur was very angry because he did not get a reply from the feudal lords of Delhi for a long time. One hundred thousand Mongolian and Turkic soldiers began to attack the city of Delhi!

The archery skills of the Mongolian and Turkic cavalry far surpassed the cannon fodder recruited by Timur in the Mughal Empire in India.

They followed the mountain of corpses piled up with cannon fodder, climbed onto the city wall, and easily shot and killed the defenders on the city wall!

The Delhi feudal lords could no longer withstand such an intense offensive, and soon surrendered to Timur.

If it is one step later, then Derry City will have millions of dead bodies!

Thousands of feudal lords of Delhi knelt on the ground, whether Brahmins or Kshatriyas, they all knelt in front of foreign conquerors.

In the face of absolute power, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, and nobles of these high castes must also submit.

The Mongolian cavalry and Turkic cavalry showed off their power, and Timur led an army composed of hundreds of war elephants and entered Delhi.

"I need to use Delhi's army to join forces with Wo Kuotai to destroy the Guishuang Empire, but I can't betray Wo Kuotai yet..."

Timur led 100,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry to surprise Delhi. He knew that these 100,000 cavalry and their generals were still loyal to Ogedei.

The 100,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry are his direct troops in Delhi.

The millions of people in Delhi were frightened by Timur's 100,000 cavalry and dared not resist.

If he announced his betrayal of Wo Kuotai, 100,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry might rebel, leave Delhi, and return to Wo Kuotai's tent. At that time, Timur would not be able to gain a foothold in Delhi.

Unless the 100,000 Mongolian and Turkic cavalry received the favor of Timur and they became a new interest group in Delhi, they would really work for Timur.

In the Eastern Continent, the population of the Mughal Empire in India was second only to that of the Han Empire. The capital Delhi was captured by Timur. The news quickly spread throughout the world, shocking other empires!

During the national war, there would be severe punishment for being captured by the capital, but after the national war, there was no special punishment. However, even so, it is extremely shameful for the capital of a huge empire to be captured by 100,000 foreign cavalry!

Brahmin, the first lord of the Mughal Empire, who was fighting with the Maratha Alliance and other kings on the Deccan Plateau, learned that the city of Delhi had been captured by Timur, and his face was livid.

Timur took advantage of the emptiness of his rear and conquered Delhi at a very small cost, but almost all the casualties were Delhi soldiers!

Timur's cannon fodder is also a local brave recruited from the Delhi area!

"Tamerlane, I'm going to kill him!"

The Brahmins hurriedly ceased fighting with the Maratha Alliance and the princes of various states, and returned to Delhi to expel Timur.

In addition to the Mughal Empire in India, the Protectorate of the Western Regions was also deeply shocked.

"What are the princes of the Mughal Empire in India doing? They were conquered by Timur's 100,000 cavalry?!"

Huo An thought that Delhi could last longer, but the weakness of the Mughal Empire in India was beyond his imagination.

The interior of the Mughal Empire in India is also a mess, and the princes in various places hold huge power.

Although Timur used the power of the servant army to consume the defenders in Delhi, the result still shocked Huo An.

He seems to have imagined the Mughal Empire in India too powerful.

The lords of the Mughal Empire in India put all their troops on the Deccan Plateau, leaving Delhi empty.

"It seems that we have to intervene in the affairs of Central Asia, otherwise it will be bad for us in the future to let Ogodei and Timur digest the amazing population and fertile plains of the Mughal Empire in India."

Wo Kuotai played a card by surprise, and Huo An had to respond.

Wo Kuotai obviously feared the Han Empire, so he pointed his saber at the South Asian subcontinent.

There are mainly two huge civilizations in the South Asian subcontinent, the Mughal Empire of India and the Kushan Empire, which are mixed with local forces such as the Maratha Alliance, with a large population and fertile land.

"Wo Kuotai wants to annex the Guishuang Empire and the Mughal Empire of India. He wants to enslave tens of millions of Turkic people and hundreds of millions of Indian Mughals with a few million Mongolian people, and establish a population that is more controlled by Temujin. There are more great empires than the Mongol Empire."

Huo An saw Wo Kuotai's ambition.

This ambition is not impossible.

Because the Mughal Empire in India, in history, was originally a great empire established by the Turkic Mongols, that is, the descendants of Timur, ruling the South Asian subcontinent.

Now Timur entered the Mughal Empire in India and started a great conquest.

"Let Gao Xianzhi cross the Congling Ridge and invade the Dawan Kingdom, we have to respond."

Huo An didn't want to send troops to Central Asia when the Northern War was about to break out in the Han Empire, but he couldn't just sit back and watch Wo Kuotai dominate Central Asia and South Asia.

His general, Gao Xianzhi, had almost the most powerful mountain marching ability in the Han Empire. Only the army led by Gao Xianzhi could easily cross the Pamirs.

"I will attack West Asia together with you to contain Wo Kuotai."

Xu Fengnian guarded Luntai for a long time, just to trouble Wo Kuotai. At this time, he stepped forward.

"The two of us will rely on our own strength to open up the situation in West Asia. The unification war of the Han Empire may last for several years."

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions has little influence on Dawan Kingdom. The nobles of Dawan Kingdom hate the Han Empire's conquest of them. We can only regard it as a strange civilization and conquer it by force."

Huo An reminded Xu Fengnian.

The Dawan Kingdom belongs to the Central Asian civilization, and it has actually exceeded the scope of the Han Empire, because the border between the Han Empire and Central Asia is Congling.

Dawan Kingdom is located to the west of Congling, and the Han Empire is located to the east of Congling. The highest altitude of Congling is more than 7000 meters, which is the nightmare of all military generals.

However, Huo An's general, Gao Xianzhi, was capable of leading the troops over Congling.

The harsher the environment, the more effective the advantages of the marching feature will be.

Xu Fengnian was worried about the upcoming war in the Han Empire: "If Chu Zimou's situation is unfavorable, I may have to return to the Central Plains. After all, the families of my Xiliang soldiers are all in Xiacheng."

The Han Empire is about to rain, and Wo Kuotai is trying to conquer South Asia, and the Eastern Continent is in chaos.

Chu Tian’s goal was to unify the Han Empire, while Huo An and Xu Fengnian were in the Western Regions Protectorate to monitor Central Asia and South Asia. threatened, they had to act.
