After laughing, Abbas II suddenly felt helpless.
There is no food on Aurangzeb's side. If food is not provided here, there will definitely be collapse there. In this way, it was Abbas II who could bear the pressure of the Ming army alone.
However, if you want to give food to Aurangzeb, as he said just now, he is a guest army, and the food is brought with the army. There is no food for others, and there is not enough for himself!
Abbas II was in a dilemma, and he couldn't help but feel resentful. Why would he usurp the throne if he didn't have the ability? He caused civil strife in the empire and was robbed by the Ming army, right?
Now that it’s all right, your Mughal Empire is going to be destroyed, and it’s even going to bring trouble on your own side. What’s the matter?
If Abbas II was very confident in uniting the Mughal Empire's troops to defeat the Ming army when he led his army from Lahore, at this time, he no longer had the certainty of defeating the Ming army. Sure, even if his army is still larger than the Ming army.
"Dear Your Majesty, we are allies after all. Your army can't just let the allies die without saving them, right?" Odom saw that Abbas II did not speak after he finished laughing. He was anxious and had to fight again. He spoke.
When Abbas II heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to hit someone again. What about allies? Pig friends are pretty much the same!
Before the war, I vowed to win, and there was even a tunnel to use! However, if there is a real fight, the whole army will be wiped out in one battle. What else can this be if it is not a pig friend?
Looking at Odom who was looking at him eagerly, Abbas II suddenly felt very irritable, so he stood up and moved to the back tent.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Odom panicked a little when he saw it, and shouted quickly, and even wanted to follow him, but was stopped, so he had to continue shouting, "Your Majesty..."
Abbas II was very irritable, walking back and forth in the back tent, frowning, and almost throwing something.
During the Ming army's battle yesterday, although he didn't know why the battle suddenly failed so quickly, he also saw how powerful the Ming army was! If he continues to fight, let alone a siege, even if it is a plain duel, he is not sure that he can defeat the elite Ming army!
At the same time, he also knew that yesterday's battle had made many soldiers in his army fear the Ming army. This is again a very negative side.
In Abbas II's mind, he probably knew that retreating was the best strategy.
However, he was a little unwilling to retreat like this. How much supplies and food were spent, and who knows how many soldiers died under the city of Delhi, but he left like this, which was a blow to his prestige.
What's more, the Ming army may not watch him retreat, and pursuit is a high probability. In addition, the supply of food and grass is also a problem, and Delhi cannot stay long.
After half the payment, Abbas II suddenly let out a long sigh. Judging from his demeanor, he has made a decision.
Sure enough, Abbas II no longer hesitated, turned back to the front tent, and said to Odom who was still here: "I can allocate food to you, but you must cover our army's retreat!"
"Ah..." Odom was very surprised. Abbas II's army was still intact and had more troops than the Ming army, but he stopped fighting and wanted to retreat. Isn't this too cowardly?
However, he did not have the status or strength to evaluate Abbas II's decision. After almost completing the task of begging for food, he could only go back to his master first.
……………………
"What?" Aurangzeb was furious when he heard Odom's report and shouted angrily, "They actually want to run away?"
After being defeated for a while, he felt so unwilling! If Abbas II left like this, he would have no chance of turning defeat into victory. From then on, the Mughals would have nothing to do with him, no, it would be the Mughals!
"Khan, we have no food!" Odom saw him like this and had to remind him.
His words were like a bolt from the blue, hitting Aurangzeb on the forehead. He became irritable and suddenly lost his temper and stayed there.
As the saying goes, a penny cannot kill a hero!
The same is true. There is no food in the army. No matter how unwilling Aurangzeb is and no matter how much he claims to be a hero, he will not be able to do anything and can only accept the conditions of Abbas II.
At this moment, Odom could clearly feel that Aurangzeb seemed to be in a much lower mood, and he quickly comforted him: "The Great Khan and Emperor Akbar were in trouble in Persia. I believe that the Great Khan will be able to It’s time to make a comeback and regain the glory of our Mughal Empire!”
Upon hearing this, Aurangzeb's eyes suddenly lit up. He stared at Odom and suddenly asked, "Do you really think so?"
"Yes, the Great Khan, these are the words from the bottom of my heart!" After hearing this, Odom immediately expressed his stance righteously, "The Great Khan is wise and powerful, far more than the previous emperors. Now he is just a tiger who has fallen into the sun. In the future, The king must return!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" When Aurangzeb heard this, his mood suddenly rose again. He stretched out his hand, patted Odom on the shoulder, and said loudly, "You are the only one who knows me!"
So, needless to say, Aurangzeb accepted his defeat and existed as a coolie to cover the Persian army.
In the meantime, what made him a little angry was that Abbas II only gave him one day's food, guarding him like a thief.
Regarding this, he secretly vowed that one day in the future, he would make Abbas II look good!
………………
Emperor Chongzhen had already known about Abbas II's withdrawal through his Class A eavesdropping system. Therefore, how could it be possible for Abbas II to withdraw easily as he wished.
Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen sent people to the east to notify Zhang Huangyan and asked him to lead his troops westward to take over the territory. On the other hand, he personally led more than 80,000 troops and followed the Persian Empire army, looking for fighter planes for a decisive battle. Those who stayed in Delhi were Dalantai's troops, waiting for Zhang Huangyan's arrival.
One thing, Emperor Chongzhen had to admit, that Abbas II was still capable. Even if he knew Abbas II's deployment, he was not sure that he could defeat the Persian Empire's army without losing many troops. Therefore, he just led the troops to follow and continued to look for fighter planes to destroy the enemy. Anyway, it was still far away from Lahore, the nearest big city controlled by Abbas II.

On the Mumbai side, Yan Yingyuan's unit can almost be said to have no opponents. In addition to the navy, which must be well prepared, the army, commanded by Li Dingguo, is galloping in all directions and has reached the south bank of the Narmada River. However, he had too few troops and could only occupy the main cities and rule through a large number of natives. As for other places, it is powerless.
In fact, it was not just a matter of weakness. For Li Dingguo, the lack of troops put great pressure on him.
The native men were not reliable. If Shah Jahan led his troops to kill them, he could conclude that the rebellion of these natives would only happen overnight.
Therefore, while Li Dingguo was collecting supplies and delivering supplies to Bombay, he also had to be very vigilant about the indigenous people and enemies from the north.
On this day, when he was dealing with official duties and had a headache, he suddenly heard the faint sound of horse hooves coming from outside. Suddenly, he frowned. Generally speaking, this kind of fear is not a good thing!
After a while, he saw a personal guard leading a Ye Bushou in quickly and reported to him: "Commander, the Mughal Khan is gathering troops in the north."
Li Dingguo knew that the north he was referring to was north of the Narmada River.
Didn't Shah Jahan lead his troops back to rescue the north? Why did he come south again and mass his troops?
To be honest, Li Dingguo felt a lot of pressure at once. Shah Jahan was difficult to deal with, and he knew it. The most critical thing is that his military strength is too small. Currently, he only has 5,000 troops available.
Worried, he immediately became alert while ordering another investigation. Not only that, they were on guard against Shah Jahan going south, and also on guard against the rebellion of his natives.
Sure enough, not long after, the indigenous people here also received the news that Shah Jahan was gathering heavy troops in the north. As a result, some natives began to get ready to take action.
As a result, to everyone's surprise, more detailed news came that Delhi had been captured by the Ming Emperor and Shah Jahan could not defeat him. Therefore, he returned to the south to gather heavy troops for a counterattack, not to go south.
Li Dingguo couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard about it. When the natives heard this, their restless thoughts suddenly ceased. However, there were also some natives who felt that the Mughals were going to change things, so they snitched to Li Dingguo in exchange for credit.
In this regard, Li Dingguo certainly showed no mercy and killed a group of uneasy natives at once.
However, what is unexpected is that in the following days, news came from the north that Shah Jahan had regained Delhi and drove the Ming emperor to the east. There was even news that the Ming Emperor had been eliminated by Shah Jahan.
Li Dingguo didn't believe that Shah Jahan could wipe out the emperor's troops. Therefore, in addition to continuing to send people to inquire about news from the north, he also stepped up guard against the natives under his command.
This time, there was no news of the Ming army in the north, and Delhi was always in the hands of Shah Jahan. This made some natives start to think about it, but this time, they were more vigilant and did not dare to reveal this intention casually.
But as time went by, and the situation in the north seemed to be stable and never repeated, some natives finally couldn't bear it anymore and sent people secretly to the north to express their loyalty and conspire to welcome the Great Khan's move south.
As a result, they failed to contact Shah Jahan because Shah Jahan led his troops eastward. They didn't care about this. Anyway, the Great Khan won and was driving away the Ming army.
What they didn't expect was that Shah Jahan, who was marching eastward, actually fought with the third prince Aurangzeb, and Shah Jahan was defeated.
The changing situation in the north has caught many people off guard. While Aurangzeb was chasing Shah Jahan, Dara Shikoh, who was hiding in the south, knew that the situation was not good and fled west to the Safi Dynasty first.
