As soon as the war in which Emperor Chongzhen protected Li Laiheng's actions ended, internal strife broke out in the Persian Empire.
I saw Aurangzeb leading his army to the Persian Empire military camp in a menacing manner. After seeing Abbas II, he asked loudly: "Why haven't today's rations been delivered?"
"You have the nerve to come and ask for rations?" Abbas II heard this and immediately sneered, "The Ming army just attacked, why didn't you defend? Why didn't you contain the Ming army?"
"Can I defend it with just these few men?" Aurangzeb didn't feel wrong at all, and immediately replied, "I'm sure that the Ming army will not dare to attack by force. Otherwise, I will be able to attack from the side." Attack it and defeat the Ming army!"
In fact, he was very resentful towards Abbas II. Not to mention anything else, this ration was only given once a day, and only one day's amount was given, which was like tying him up tightly.
For the unruly Aurangzeb, this was the kind of thing that made him feel great shame. If there was a chance to trick Abbas II, he would never hesitate.
At this time, Abbas II heard Aurangzeb's answer. Although the result was indeed the case, the Ming army did not get an advantage and retreated when they saw no opportunity to take advantage of it. However, he knew very well in his heart that Aurangzeb Zebu is most likely the type who only picks up bargains.
It is not that easy to take advantage of this cunning hungry wolf. Abbas II thought so in his heart and made a decision. He immediately said to Aurangzeb: "I don't have much military rations anymore. Now, I’m going out of my way to help you. If I see you and retreat without a fight, don’t blame me for not being an ally!”
When Aurangzeb saw the promise of food, he immediately softened and agreed immediately, patting his chest.
Being able to bend and stretch is the true nature of a hero!
Abbas II seemed unwilling to see Aurangzeb again, so he immediately turned his horse's head and went deep into the camp.
Looking at his back, Aurangzeb showed a sneer on his face, but said nothing and returned.
But what he didn't know was that after Abbas II returned to the central military tent, he asked his men: "Have you prepared the batch of military rations that I told you earlier about banning Croton water?"
"Back to Your Majesty, we are ready!"
"Okay!" Abbas II said with a hint of ferocity on his face after hearing this, "Just mix that batch of grain and send it to the Mughal army."
He understood clearly that if Aurangzeb would not get what he wanted, then he would be of no use. Therefore, I was ready to use the means I had prepared.
……………………
On the Ming army side, Emperor Chongzhen was observing the messages in the eavesdropping system. What he saw made him a little speechless.
Because he saw that Aurangzeb was telling his subordinates to run away immediately after getting the food. The reason is that Aurangzeb cut out the daily rations and kept them. He didn't want Abbas II to pinch his neck anymore, so he wanted to run away.
Abbas II, on his side, gave Aurangzeb food soaked in croton water in the hope that Aurangzeb would have diarrhea and not be able to walk fast, so that he could quickly withdraw his troops and let the Mughal army, which was not walking fast, It became a stumbling block for the Ming army to pursue.
The reason for choosing this time was not only that Abbas II had had enough of Aurangzeb, but also because the army rations were about to arrive, and he had to put enough distance between himself and the Ming army and expand his troops so that he could complete his plan to cover the rations. Tao deployment.
"It's weird to win with such intrigue!" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but shook his head and sighed secretly after reading it.
But then I thought about it, and it seems that if I didn't have this eavesdropping system in hand and could keep track of the enemy's movements at any time, I wouldn't be so easy to fight!
After sighing for a while, Emperor Chongzhen decided to ignore Aurangzeb's side and seize the main contradiction. The first choice was to defeat Abbas II's army first.
Therefore, he immediately began to deploy based on the actions on the other side.
……………………
By the evening of the next day, the Persian Empire's army was finally stabilized. Seeing the loss of at least four to five thousand people, Abbas II couldn't help cursing his mother, even though his status was so noble, and cursed Aurangzeb for a good death!
He never expected that Aurangzeb would run away immediately after getting the food, leaving a gap on his side to be used by the Ming army, so that he was caught off guard and ate it. A big loss. Although he finally stabilized the situation with great efforts, in the chaos, the Ming army raided the rear camp and burned part of the food.
"But fortunately, the follow-up food will arrive soon. As long as there is no shortage of food and grass, I am still confident to bring the army back. The only difference is the length of time it takes!" Abbas II thought in his heart, seemingly Rather confident.
So, in the next few days, he never made any mistakes and just retreated for stability. The absence of intrigues with Aurangzeb allowed him to more freely mobilize his troops to retreat.
On the Ming army's side, it was still the same as before. If there was no chance, they would never attack forcefully. They just stared like hungry wolves, looking for opportunities.
On this day, when they were still more than 200 miles away from Lahore, the Ming army suddenly accelerated. The entire army pressed closer and caught up with the rear of the Persian army. They were ready to attack at any time. They were suddenly frightened. The Persian army did not dare to cover and retreat one after another.
This time, uncharacteristically, the Ming army did not retreat and set up camp at a safe distance because the Persian army was sufficiently prepared. He has always maintained a posture of starting a war at any time. Even though the sky slowly darkened, the Ming army had no intention of retreating.
Seeing this situation, Abbas II couldn't help but sneer. The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty really didn't know what he was thinking. If he had done this earlier and kept his side unable to march, he would definitely be worried because of the problem of food and grass. But now, although the food and grass are almost gone, it is not far from Lahore, and the food and grass are on the way, I believe it will arrive in the next few days.
On the contrary, the supply line of the Ming army has been getting longer and longer. If the stalemate continues, who will be most advantageous, won't the Ming emperor take it into account?
Abbas II thought so, wishing in his heart that the stalemate would continue like this, until in the end, the Ming army would cry.
However, what he never expected was that on the next day, there was movement from the west of the Persian army. At first, the Persian army thought that their food delivery team had arrived, and their morale suddenly rose.
Previously, in order to boost morale, Abbas II had notified the entire army of the news about the grain transport team. In this way, although there is not much food in the army and food rationing is about to begin, morale will not be affected much.
At this time, Abbas II was also very happy after hearing the reports from his men and the calls from outside. Everything was developing for the better.
However, just as he was thinking about this, he saw another personal guard breaking in and reporting to him in a panic: "Your Majesty, it's bad, the Ming Army... it's the Ming Army..."
Hearing this, Abbas II couldn't help but frown, and immediately shouted: "What's wrong with the Ming army? Can they make a big difference? If you have the ability, let them come and take it down!"
Now that his morale is high, if the Ming army comes to fight, he will be eager to do so!
"No, no!" The guard was so anxious that he rejected Abbas II twice in a row, pointed to the west, and said hurriedly, "There is no grain transport team, it is the Ming army, and the Ming army came from Lahore. !”
"What?" When Abbas II heard this, a chill suddenly ran down his spine. He didn't even bother to ask any more questions, and quickly left the Chinese military tent to see what was going on.
At this time, the original cheers in the entire camp had turned silent. Everyone was staring blankly to the west.
As a result, Abbas II immediately heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the west, like thunder from the sky, rolling towards this side.
He looked intently and saw a red torrent coming in the distance to the west. Having dealt with the Ming Army for such a long time, it goes without saying that he recognized it immediately, it was the Ming Cavalry Army!
Suddenly, Abbas II suddenly fell and almost fell. Fortunately, his personal guards were by his side and assisted him in time.
When did the Ming cavalry go around to the west? They came from the west. What about the grain transport team? Also, was Lahore also lost?
At this moment, Abbas II thought of many possibilities. Every possibility is so fatal to him!
At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Smoke, smoke, there is smoke..."
That's right, at this moment, you can already see smoke rising from the end of your sight, even if there are hills across it. Seeing smoke coming from such a distance shows that the fire over there is definitely not small.
Looking at the smoke rising in the distance, almost all the soldiers of the Persian Empire had a very bad premonition: the food they were looking forward to was finished!
But despite this, they still held on to the hope of eventuality and kept telling themselves in their hearts that it was impossible! The food must be fine!
After just a while, the Ming cavalry army came this way and was getting closer and closer.
At this time, the Persian Empire's army could no longer care about panic, and quickly began to form formations to prepare for battle. The cavalry was also dispatched to support the infantry's defense.
However, the Ming cavalry did not attack. Instead, they threw something over here outside the attack range. Almost every ride, things were being thrown. In just a moment, the ground between the two armies was already full.
After the sharp-eyed soldiers of the Persian Empire saw what was there clearly, they all turned pale with fright, and their faces were extremely pale.
Those things are all heads, and it can be seen that those heads are Persian or Mughal. Needless to say, there are various signs that these heads are from the food delivery team!
"Pfft..." After Abbas II understood everything in front of him, he felt like someone had punched him in the chest, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
